Chapter 208 It Doesn't Matter, I Will Shot!
After catching the bird and snake, Rove looked at the devastated owl shed and prepared to flee the crime scene first.
But he took Luna, Ginny and Colin, and before he could retreat, he was caught by Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall on the spot.
Even the owl shed collapsed, such a big movement, as long as you are not deaf and blind, you will definitely be alarmed.
Dumbledore took the bottle from Rove, his eyes shot down from his long hooked nose, and fixed on the bird snake intently.
Professor McGonagall's lips were pale. She grabbed her clothes with her hands and gasped for air. She didn't know if she was angry, or she was glad that the student hadn't had an accident.
She slowed down for a long time, finally pursed her lips, and said in a trembling voice:
"Mr. Scamander, I know you are very powerful, you know a lot, and you have learned a lot from Newt about how to deal with magical creatures... But if you encounter this kind of thing in the future, please inform the professor and let us handle it."
"Don't always act alone, it's dangerous!"
"I see. I'm sorry, Professor McGonagall." With a remorseful look on his face, Rove assured him, "This is the last million times I violated the school rules."
Professor McGonagall's expression softened a lot, and she looked at Ginny and the others again.
"And the three of you, you're only in the first grade and you're messing around with Scamander, right?!"
"Professor, we caught the mysterious animal that attacked the students!" Ginny opened her mouth and defended, "It's not nonsense."
She feels aggrieved, it's fine if she doesn't give extra points, but she still has to be criticized?
Rove tried not to laugh out loud, he was still too young, if it was Shirley and Hermione, even Neville would not open his mouth to defend.
You can't be stubborn at this time, otherwise Professor McGonagall will let you know... what is the iron fist of justice!
Sure enough, Professor McGonagall immediately sullenly said, sternly:
"This is not an excuse for you to take risks. I am very angry that three first-year students went to catch birds and snakes! I have never heard of such a thing before!
It's even more outrageous than last year's Halloween, when a few students went to deal with trolls! "
Speaking of this, Professor McGonagall suddenly remembered that Rove was also involved in the troll incident... Why do you always have you kid!
"You, Miss Weasley, the role models you should follow are your brothers Bill and Percy, not George, Fred and Ron!" Professor McGonagall said coldly:
"And you, Mr. Creevey, anyway, if you take pictures of birds and snakes, they should be sent to me first, not to Mr. Scamander. I am your dean, not him!
You and Miss Weasley are both in detention! ! "
"As for you, Miss Lovegood, I will tell Professor Flitwick about this and let him deal with you."
Rove stood on the sidelines, watching his nose, nose, and heart, absolutely not speaking, even with remorse on his face, so as not to cause trouble to his upper body.
Sure enough, Professor McGonagall finally ignored the "extremely sincere" Rove, and only punished Ginny and the three of them... He almost laughed out loud.
After everyone left, only Rove and Dumbledore remained in the owl shed.
Dumbledore raised his wand and waved it lightly: "It's back to normal."
The owl shed destroyed by Rove and the bird and snake instantly restored its original appearance. Except for the lack of birds and snakes, the whole shed was as it was when Rove came, and it is now... exactly the same!
Witnessing such a hand of magic with his own eyes, Rove was also amazed, not only because Dumbledore was too easy to handle, but also...
The vines that had been spawned by his magic shrunk back.
He was very sure that the normal wizard's "recovery" would definitely not be able to achieve this effect... it could only be because of the Elder Wand.
After all, it has the magical power to restore even broken wands!
Rove quickly told the principal about Lockhart's smuggling of birds and snakes... Of course, he did not hide his sneaking into Lockhart's office.
"I see." Dumbledore nodded calmly, "I will tell Minister Fudge about it.
At the end of this term, anyway... our Professor Lockhart will have to pay for what he did. "
Rove nodded lightly and said, "Then I'll go back first, Professor."
"Rove, take this back too, you caught it so hard." Dumbledore turned around and threw the bottle containing the bird snake to the young man. The old man blinked and said:
"By the way, don't let Professor McGonagall see it, she wants me to confiscate it..."
Rove grinned and said, "I know!"
...
...
The sudden collapse of the owl shed was witnessed by many students... This incident spread throughout Hogwarts in the shortest possible time.
Everyone was talking about the bizarre incident, and quite a few students immediately went to the owl shed to see what was going on.
But the strange thing is that when everyone got there, they found that the birdhouse was unscathed!
One student may be dazzled, but it is impossible for all students to be dazzled... This is simply a supernatural event in the owl shed!
However, the heat of this matter did not last for two days before it was covered by another breaking news:
The mystery animal of the prize room attack has been caught, and it's a bird snake!
Professor Dumbledore confirmed this at the dinner and praised Rove and the others, but at the same time warned the little wizards to notify the professor first if they encounter danger and not to act without authorization.
The students are very concerned about the problem of birds and snakes, and gather around Rove and the others every day, trying to gather information.
Rove was okay. He was surrounded by students everywhere he went, so he was completely stress-free, but this was the first time Luna, Ginny, and Colin had experienced such a thing.
All three of them tacitly chose to keep their mouths shut.
Especially Ginny, unlike Ron, who would add embellishments and talk nonsense when encountering something, deliberately attracting everyone's attention.
But even though they were considered heroes by the students, the three of them had to clean up the bird droppings on the floor of the owl pen as their... punishment this time.
Fortunately, Rove paid double the remuneration, which gave Ginny a little comfort.
Professor Lockhart once again showed his superb acting skills. The bird snake was obviously lost by him, but he claimed that it was lost by the attacker who opened the secret room.
Shake the pot clean first!
Professor Lockhart was still in class, telling the students without blushing or beating his heart:
"I don't think there will be any more trouble. The chamber of secrets will never be opened again this time. The bird and snake have been caught, and the criminal has no tools to commit crimes. He must not dare to show up again!"
When Hannah raised her hand and asked Lockhart if the attack happened again, he said calmly:
"It doesn't matter, I will make a move!"
With the protection of the house elf Sacia, Lockhart was extremely confident.
He also thought that the students were scared out of their wits and it was time to boost their morale.
