Chapter 538 Unselfish Snape!
With the sound of falling rain and the sound of horseshoes walking in the mud, the carriage drove into Hogwarts, galloped along the wide driveway, and stopped beside the stone steps in front of the oak gate.
Rove got out of the car and climbed the stone steps, only to find that the entrance was crowded with students, and the hall turned into a scene of a water curtain hole.
Peeves floated above the hall, yelling:
"Damn ghosts, you won't let Master Peeves go to the dinner party, and you little wizards don't even want to enter the auditorium... Jie Jie!"
Peeves opened his mouth with a "clack", and stuck out his tongue "swish". The tip of the tongue was sharp and hard, exuding a metallic luster, and then stabbed towards a rubber balloon.
The water-filled balloon exploded with a bang, and cold water poured out, dousing the students' heads.
People around screamed and pushed each other, wanting to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.
Rove frowned and said, "Peeves, what are you doing?"
When Peeves heard the familiar voice, he almost fell from the air. He stabilized his body in time and floated up slipperily, showing a flattering smile.
"Lord Scamander, are you back? It's raining and the ground is covered with mud. Little Peeves is cleaning the floor for you."
Everyone looked at Rove in surprise, it was the first time they had seen Peeves so respectful to a student... As expected of you, Scamander!
There is a reason why Peeves is so well-behaved... Just half a year ago, after seeing the bloody Baron transformed into a "dead ghost" by Rove's magic, he was frightened.
"Thank you for your kindness, but we are going to the auditorium." Rove said.
"Of course, I'll leave now." Peeves said, drifting away. "I hope you go well in your studies and graduate early...I won't bother you."
Rove led Shirley and the others towards the auditorium, but Ginny and Luna blocked the way, and Ginny said anxiously:
"Rove, have you seen Harry and Ron?"
"No." Rove shook his head and said, "Why, they disappeared again?"
"Yes," said Ginny, "Ron let us go first when we got off the train, saying he wanted to trouble Malfoy.
But now all the carriages have arrived, and they are not seen. "
Luna pulled her head out of "The Quibbler", looked at Rove with wandering eyes, and said:
"They may have been taken by the fairies of the lake, and they all operate in this kind of weather.
When I was a child, I met a fat woman who wanted to take me away, and my father said she was a fairy of the lake. "
Rove was speechless for a moment, and it was true that Old Lovegood was able to speak of the trafficker so freshly and refinedly... his brain circuit was different from others.
"Has anyone seen Harry and Ron?" Rove asked.
"I saw it." Hannah smiled and waved her arms. "Malfoy was standing in the carriage, waving an ugly dress, and Potter and Weasley rushed into the train."
"Rushed into the train?" Ginny was shocked and said, "Could it be that they were taken away by the train?"
"Not sure." Rove glanced at the auditorium and said, "Professor McGonagall is here, let's talk to her later."
Professor McGonagall walked out of the auditorium quickly, but the ground was covered with water. She slipped and was about to fall. Fortunately, Rove had quick eyesight and quick hands, grabbed Professor McGonagall's arm and held her firmly.
"Alas... thank you, Mr. Scamander."
"It's okay, Professor!" Rove supported Professor McGonagall's arm and whispered, "Harry and Ron are gone."
After hearing the whole story, Professor McGonagall had a very bad face. Why is it Potter and Weasley every time...Why? !
"I'm not free right now. I have to take the new students into the auditorium branch." Professor McGonagall sighed, "I'll ask Professor Snape to find them."
Mag raised his wand, and a silver cat popped out from the tip of the wand. It landed on the ground, circled around, and ran swiftly towards the auditorium.
A moment later, Snape strode over, dragging his long black cloak, with a malicious smile on his face.
Snape walked too fast, and his feet slipped on the wet marble floor, but Rove didn't help him, and deliberately took half a step back.
Then, Snape fell to the ground solidly with a thud, extremely embarrassed.
The students all wanted to laugh, but no one dared to laugh out loud. Everyone knew that a year of torture would follow, so they had to hold back.
Snape got up from the ground, although he didn't speak, but his face was gloomy, he said angrily, "Who splashed the water?!"
After a while, Daphne from Slytherin stammered, "Professor Snape, Peeves did it."
"..."
Snape was dumb eating coptis, so he held his breath in his stomach, and then moved his eyes to Professor McGonagall.
"Professor McGonagall, you just said that Potter and Weasley were still on the train and didn't get off?"
"It should be like this." Professor McGonagall nodded, "So I want you to go and have a look and bring them back."
"Oh." Snape had a flamboyant smile on his face.
"It seems that the famous Harry Potter and his little companion, Weasley, despise Hogwarts. Are they planning to quit school and go home?"
"It's not like that, Professor Snape," said Ginny. "They didn't mean to..."
"Shut up." Snape interrupted Ginny coldly, and said with a sneer:
"The two of them were in the first grade, suspected that I wanted to steal the Philosopher's Stone, violated school rules with Weasley, went to the restricted area on the fourth floor to steal the Philosopher's Stone, and then met Quirrell.
In the second grade, they drove a flying car, crashed the Whomping Willow, and gave their classmates poisonous mushrooms... It was them every time, and they said they didn't do it on purpose? ! "
Now even Professor McGonagall couldn't say anything, after all, every word Snape said touched her heart.
Harry and Ron are not bad, Professor McGonagall still likes them, but if they are not in their own house - such as in Slytherin - then he likes them even more!
"If it's really found that they didn't get off the train, I think the necessary punishment should be taken." Snape said with a smirk:
"For example, 50 points will be deducted from each person, and then they will be placed in confinement."
"But class starts tomorrow, so Gryffindor shouldn't be deducted points tonight, right?" Luna said.
"When Potter and Weasley drove the flying car the year before last, it was for this reason that they didn't deduct points." Snape snorted:
"But did it work? No! Instead, it got worse! So this time we must be severely punished."
"Also... if it's a student of my academy who stays on the train and doesn't get off, I will deal with it strictly." Snape said loudly with a dignified look on his face:
"Professor McGonagall, you are the vice-principal, not just the dean of Gryffindor, you can't favor the students of your own college."
With the hat off, what else could Professor McGonagall do, she could only sigh: "Then, as you said, everyone will deduct 50 points, and then they will be locked up."
Snape smiled in satisfaction. Seeing Rove's expression move slightly, he asked in a gloomy tone, "Why, Scamander, do you have a different opinion?"
"No, I completely agree with this punishment." Rove laughed:
"But Malfoy, Goyle and Crabbe seem to be on the train too, so a hundred and fifty points off Slytherin.
Professor Snape, you are so unselfish, I am impressed tonight! "
Snape: "..."

(Thank you "Yue Renjun" for your reward.
Let me explain yesterday's situation. I originally posted a chapter, but I didn't post it, so it was blocked at 7 o'clock. I had to repost a chapter. I didn't expect that two hours later, the sealed chapter would be republished at 7 o'clock, resulting in duplication of chapters.
Alas, Yaya really didn't mean it, and I'm sorry to all the readers. )
