"Mr. Gaius, you..."

"Principal Dumbledore, do you doubt me?"

"No, Mr. Gaius, I said that there is no evidence to prove that you are innocent." Dumbledore said lightly, "I just want to ask you to do us a favor and send Colin to the school hospital?"

Chapter 164

school clinic.

Harry lay alone in a hospital bed with a thick bandage on his right arm.

Although it was a special torment, he could clearly feel the regrowth of the removed bones, and he was relieved.

"Hello."

Two tennis-ball sized eyes suddenly appeared in front of Harry, startling him.

Dobby sat on a table at the end of the bed, and said aggrieved but seriously: "Harry Potter should listen to Dobby, Harry Potter should go home before he catches the train."

"How do you know I missed the train?" Harry stared at Dobby suspiciously. "It turned out to be you. You sealed the partition and didn't let us in."

Dobby nodded a little guilty, "Exactly, sir."

"You almost got me and Ron fired."

"At least to get you out of here, Harry Potter must go home.

Dobby thought his Bludger would make Harry Potter understand..."

"Your Bludger?" Harry instantly thought of what happened on the field, and his anger was ignited all of a sudden, "You made that Bludger chase me?"

Although Gryffindor didn't lose so badly today thanks to the Bludger, it didn't mean he had to be grateful to Dobby, no one wanted to be hit hard by a ten-inch iron ball.

And the speed of the iron ball is still so fast, it is clearly heading for his life.

"Dobby just wanted Harry Potter to get hurt and sent home"

Harry raised his bandaged arm angrily, "You want me to be smashed to pieces!

Before my bones grow well, you'd better leave quickly, or I'll strangle you to death. "

"Dobby never meant to harm you." Dobby said in a panic, "Dobby remembers what it was like before Harry Potter defeated the monster who can't even mention the name.

We house-elves were considered vermin, and of course Dobby was still considered a vermin. "

Dobby said, thinking of countless painful memories, covered his face with his burned hands and cried bitterly, and then wiped his nose with his rotten clothes.

Harry also calmed down seeing him like this, looked at him with some sympathy and asked, "Why are you wearing that, Dobby?"

"This is a symbol of the house elf's slave status. Only when the master gives Dobby clothes can Dobby be free."

Harry opened his mouth, trying to comfort him but couldn't find any words.

Although he and Lucius Malfoy hadn't met a few times in total, he looked a lot darker than his son, and Dobby might never escape the Malfoys' house.

At this time, there was a sound of opening the door downstairs, and Dobby immediately jumped to the window, whispering: "Something terrible is about to happen at Hogwarts, Harry Potter must not stay here.

Because history is about to repeat itself, the secret room has been opened again. "

Harry wanted to ask something more, but the footsteps were getting closer.

Dobby snapped his fingers immediately, and his body turned into green smoke and disappeared. Harry also quickly lay down on the bed, covering himself with the blanket and pretending to be asleep.

After a while Dumbledore came in, behind him Aaron and Professor McGonagall lifted Colin and carefully put him on a bed.

"Minerva." Dumbledore whispered, "Go and call Madam Pomfrey."

Professor McGonagall nodded and walked out of the room quickly.

"Mr. Gaius, we can have a good talk at this moment.

This is not suspicion, but to help you clear the suspicion. After all, you were the first to find him, and there are no other people around you.

Aaron pursed his lips, knowing that he still couldn't escape this round of cross-examination.

"Professor, you can ask whatever you want.

I must know everything and say everything. "

"Where were you when Creevey was attacked?"

"At that time, I just finished returning the book, not long after I left the library, Mrs. Pince can prove it for me.

When I heard Colin's scream, I was only ten meters away from him. "

"Okay!" Dumbledore narrowed his eyes slightly, "Then did you see what attacked him?"

"No." Aaron said without thinking, "At that time, he passed a corner, and I didn't see anything."

"Understood, thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Gaius."

"It should be." Aaron said with some embarrassment, "By the way, Professor, I hope you can keep this matter a secret for me?

I am very clear that I am innocent, but other people in the school don't know that, if they know that Colin's accident happened, I was at the scene of the crime, and some rumors will inevitably arise. "

Dumbledore hesitated for a while, then pondered: "I will keep it a secret, but..."

"Don't worry, no one else saw us when we came."

"I'll talk to Professor McGonagall."

"Thank you!"

Soon, Professor McGonagall rushed back, followed by Madam Pomfrey wearing a red coat.

"How is this going?"

"Another attack.

I checked and he was petrified, same as Mrs. Norris. "

Professor McGonagall noticed the camera in Colin's hand and asked eagerly, "Did he take a picture of the attacker."

Dumbledore bent down, opened Colin's stiff fingers, and took out the camera.

He opened the back cover of the camera, but before he could take out the film, a pungent smell came out, followed by a brilliant spark.

"It's melted, it's all melted." Madam Pomfrey said in astonishment.

"What does that mean, Albus?" asked Professor McGonagall.

"This means that the Chamber of Secrets has indeed been opened."

"It also means danger." Aaron interjected, "Muggle-born wizards, half-blood wizards are no longer safe."

"Aaron, is it possible that you have discovered something?"

"Minerva." Dumbledore shook his head slightly at her, "At least in my opinion, Mr. Gaius is not suspected at present."

"Professor, I am indeed innocent." Aaron said seriously, but seeing the suspicion in Professor McGonagall's eyes, he sighed helplessly, "I know this is not convincing, but you know me , if I were the heir of Slytherin, you would never have seen me at the scene of the crime."

When Professor McGonagall heard the words, he hesitated for a while, wondering whether he should believe it or not.

What Aaron said made sense, it was impossible for him to expose himself with his intelligence.

But the problem is that he was at the scene of both attacks, which is too coincidental.

"McGonagall, promise me, keep it secret for now.

We can't affect a child's study life because of unwarranted suspicion. "

"What did the teacher say?"

"Honestly, tell them Hogwarts is no longer safe."

......

The next day, Harry opened his eyes, and the winter sun was particularly warm on the bed.

He could feel that his arm was fine, the bones had grown out, but it was still a little stiff and needed to be moved.

Madam Pomfrey walked over with the breakfast tray, and then checked his arms and fingers, "It looks good, you can leave after eating."

Harry picked up the spoon to eat the porridge with trembling right hand that had just healed up, changed his clothes after more than ten minutes, and walked out of the school infirmary.

When passing by Colin's bed, he couldn't help turning his head, but unfortunately, Colin's bed was tightly blocked by a white curtain, and he couldn't see Colin's condition at all.

Remembering everything he had heard last night, he hurried back to the Gryffindor common room.

"Harry, your arm is healed." Wood said with some relief, "Yesterday's game was a pity, but don't stress, you've done a good job.

This time we were unprepared, but next time Slytherin tactics won't work, I've got some ideas. "

"Let's stop talking about that, aren't Hermione and Ron in the lounge?"

"They went to the library, the homework assigned by Lockhart, the Weasley brother seems to want to learn from Granger's.

But don't worry, Lockhart wants you to recover from your injuries, so he waived your homework. "

"This is the best news I've heard these days." After Harry finished, he went to the library without the slightest hesitation.

In the area where the three of them often stayed, he found Ron and Hermione easily.

Hermione was holding a thick school history, and stared at the opposite side from time to time while flipping through it, while Ron was writing furiously, ignoring the angry eyes.

"Harry." Hermione asked with some joy, "how is your arm?"

"It's almost recovered."

"You can be regarded as a blessing in disguise, at least you don't have to do your homework."

"Would you mind saying that?

It’s okay to beg for nothing and copy my homework, and copy paragraphs at intervals, and the writing is too big and ugly. "

"From what you said, I know that you have never copied your homework, and those who are inexperienced copy everything verbatim.

Besides, it's not that I didn't write it, I just borrowed part of it. "

Hermione rolled her eyes, she didn't want to argue with the scum about homework copying skills.

"Listen to me first." Harry looked around nervously, sat down after making sure that there was no one there, and told the two of what he heard last night, including the fact that Dobby was looking for him.

After listening, Ron's expression became a little complicated, "So, now Aaron's suspicion really overtakes Malfoy?"

"I'm afraid so."

"But this..." Hermione was still in disbelief, "This is impossible! How is this possible?"

"Hermione, I don't want to believe it's him, but the facts speak louder than words.

This is the third coincidence, but it is not a coincidence if there are too many coincidences. Harry said anxiously, "Now that Colin has been petrified, I don't know who will be next." "

"But we can't prove it." Ron said, "According to what you said, without evidence, Dumbledore may have nothing to do with him."

"That's why I came to see you after I was discharged from the hospital." Harry looked at Hermione who was silent, and asked with some embarrassment, "Is there anything you can do?"

"I, maybe..." Hermione hesitated, shaking her head slowly, "I probably can't help it."

Harry and Ron looked at each other, and it was hard for her to believe that she couldn't help it.

"I know you believe him more than anyone, but this time the stakes are high.

It would be the end of Hogwarts half-bloods and Muggle-born wizards if they were trusted and left alone. "

"That..." Ron looked at Hermione with some embarrassment, "You may not want to hear me say that, but Harry and I are both pure blood, but you are Muggle-born."

Chapter 165 This pot is big and round

"If, I mean if!" Hermione emphasized again, looking at the two seriously, and said, "If we turned into Draco and went to the Slytherin common room and asked him, would he not hide anything?" Tell us about the Chamber of Secrets."

"It's possible." Ron nodded. "Malfoy is his best friend in Slytherin, and a pureblood among purebloods. Aaron will definitely not hide it from him."

"But I'm not hitting you, Hermione." Harry said with a bitter face, "Your idea is very good, but that level of transfiguration in Hogwarts may only be known by Professor McGonagall and Dumbledore. Certainly not helping us."

"Without their help, all we need is a little Polyjuice Potion, as Professor Snape mentioned in class.

A properly prepared compound decoction can make the user change into another person for a certain period of time. "

"It's too cruel." Ron smiled in surprise, "At that time we will become Draco, Crabbe, and Goyle to ask him, and Aaron will say anything."

"But there are a few small problems." Hermione looked at the expectant faces of the two and had to dampen their enthusiasm, "First of all, this is very difficult, very difficult, and very dangerous.

I've never made Polyjuice Potion before, and we're probably breaking nearly fifty school rules. "
