NOVEL NEXT Chapter 32
"What are you guys laughing at?" Hermione looked at Thorne in confusion at the confusing situation.
"It's okay... I just thought of something happy... I... I'm learning this flesh magic, Dumbledore has always known, and he's quite supportive." Thorne took a deep breath and explained.
"Oh... So you've been playing me for so long?" Hermione said with understanding.
"Well... I can't say that, at most it's... a good-natured joke." Thorne just saw a righteous pink fist coming towards him as soon as he finished speaking.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
............
"Why are you here too?" In the infirmary, Draco looked at Thorne with a bandage on his head and asked in surprise.
"Don't ask what a child shouldn't ask. It's not good for you to know too much." Thorne said and lay down on the bed next to Draco.
"I'm mainly curious about who could have done this to you. It can't be that you accidentally fell down the stairs." Draco asked.
"......You'll know in a minute." Thorne sighed, and sure enough, two more mummies came in a little while later.
"Potter? Weasley? What happened to you two?" Draco asked.
"I accidentally fell when I was going down the stairs."
"......Tell the truth."
"Hermione attacked us... By the way, I'm sorry, Thorne, I accidentally saw your book in the library, and I mentioned it to Hermione." Harry said bitterly.
"......Thank you so much."
..............
To be honest, the potion brewed by Madam Pomfrey is very effective, and most of the people who were seriously injured during the day were discharged from the hospital in the afternoon.
"Go back and change your clothes quickly, and you can still have Halloween dinner in the evening." Draco reminded.
"Yo? It's Halloween already? It feels like school has just started a few days ago." Thorne complained.
"Maybe you don't have much time to wake up." Draco said.
...........
The two of them were like brainless and unhappy, playing and fighting all the way to the auditorium.
They sat down at the Slytherin table, and they were very careful to stay away from Crabbe and Goyle, so that they could at least eat half full, provided that they were fast enough.
Just when everyone was sitting at the long table of their respective colleges, chatting and waiting for the meal to start, suddenly a thousand paper cranes flew in front of them.
After opening it, I found a line of words written on it.
[Where is Hermione? She hasn't shown up since she attacked us, do you know? ]
Thorne put the paper away and was a little confused. If he said according to his memory... Wait, remember it yourself?
"Fuck... Draco, you wait here, I have something to do." Thorne decisively left the Slytherin table and walked towards the bathroom on the first floor.
"Dumbledore! Troll! I found a troll!" At this time, Professor Quirrell suddenly rushed in and shouted at Dumbledore.
"......" Thorne quickened his pace and rushed towards the bathroom.
Bang!
There was a loud noise not far away, and Thorne immediately ran and rushed directly into the bathroom.
As expected, the troll was holding a huge wooden stick and waving the partition of the bathroom constantly. The huge noise was mixed with a hint of crying.
"Hello, look at me!" Thorne called out his wand and shouted at the troll.
The moment the troll turned his head, he was greeted by a blood-red light. In the blink of an eye, the lawless troll had collapsed to the ground, like a pile of rotten meat, and there was a huge spine with blood next to him thrown there casually.
"Hermione! Hermione, are you there? The troll is useless." Thorne fanned the air in front of him with some disgust and asked towards the bathroom.
"I'm here!" The door of a cubicle against the wall was pushed open from the inside, and Hermione walked out with red eyes. She looked down at the troll whose spine was completely pulled out, and immediately couldn't hold it back, and tears flowed down.
"Are you okay? You are here... Why are you here? There is a Halloween dinner outside." Thorne asked dryly.
"Because you... When you were in the principal's office, you teamed up to deceive me." Hermione said with her head down.
"Sorry, it's my fault, come out now." Thorne stood on the troll's panting body and stretched out his hand to Hermione.
"Don't do this again in the future." Hermione said sobbingly, holding Thorne's hand, and the two were about to leave the bathroom.
Suddenly, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps outside the bathroom, andThere was Draco's recognizable voice.
"Don't panic, Thorne! I'm Draco here!"
Then Draco was seen rushing to the front with Crabbe and Goyle, followed by the serious-looking Dumbledore, Snape and McGonagall, and finally the panting Harry and Ron.
"Where are the trolls! We're here! A thousand little trolls will die!" Draco pulled Thorne out of the bathroom and hid behind Dumbledore, saying arrogantly.
Hermione, who was left in place: "........."
"That panting meat mountain in the bathroom is it." Thorne's mouth twitched, but he still said calmly.
Draco was a little confused, and his eyes were very confused, but he still looked in, then looked at Thorne and said: "You killed such a big guy?"
"Not dead." Thorne replied.
"Knocking it out is pretty impressive."
"It's just that its spine was removed."
There was a moment of silence in the air. Snape walked into the bathroom curiously. When he came out again, he looked at Thorne with a glowing look in his eyes.
"How was it?" Dumbledore asked Snape in a low voice.
"Yeah." The latter nodded.
"In that case... I think Mr. Black's noble and heroic act of saving a classmate who was about to be attacked by a troll is worth 50 points. What do you think?" Dumbledore looked at the crowd and answered.
"As it should be." Professor McGonagall replied.
"Less." Snape said.
"............."
"Eighty points."
"Just barely." Snape nodded.
"Then... Miss Granger, why didn't you go to the Halloween party, but stayed in this bathroom..." Dumbledore asked again.
Harry and Ron were immediately shocked. After all, strictly speaking, Hermione hid here because she had a conflict with them, but Thorne was different.
The person who laughed the loudest in the principal's office was this old man, but now he has the audacity to ask Hermione why she is emo... What a master!
