Although Harry and Wood were very sure that they were not telling the truth, the news that Cassandra Worley was admitted to the hospital spread like wildfire. The Worley sisters are also celebrities in Slytherin House because of their noble birth and beauty.
Now the little girl has been attacked and her life or death is unknown. The news spreads throughout the school. The secret room incident that had passed has suddenly become a storm again. Everyone in the school is in danger, and Cassandra's sister Cassandra even said
, anyone who can solve the dark magic diary will gain the friendship of the Woley family. She said that those who are still hiding the dark magic diary should step back from the cliff and confess leniently, otherwise they will become the enemies of the Woley family.
Since Cassandra was attacked when she was alone, the first-year students now always work together in small groups, for fear of following in the footsteps of Senior Warley.
Fred and George made a small fortune: amulets and exorcism items suddenly became popular among students. Fred and the others seized the market demand and launched several hot-selling products, including but not limited to rotten onions, purple
Crystal.Lizard tail...
Pure-blooded little wizards are no exception - Cassandra is a pure-blooded person. Her attack shocked these pure-blooded little wizards: Wasn't it agreed that only "Mudbloods" would be eliminated? How could it be?
…?
Based on the principle of buying without losing money, they also bought amulets one after another. It was naturally impossible for Malfoy to buy amulets produced by the Weasley family. But every time the Fred brothers launched an amulet, the second
Every day Malfoy will receive a very similar-looking amulet.
"This can't go on like this," Tom said to Dumbledore, "the whole school is in panic."
In the small principal's office, there were six professors: Principal Dumbledore, four deans, and Tom, the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor.
"I think we should quickly find the source of the panic, bring him to justice, and send him to Azkaban." Snape stared at Tom with his empty eyes.
"Do you have any ideas?" Dumbledore looked at Lockhart standing in front of his desk.
"We can hold a dueling club and teach students some dueling skills."
"Ha!" Snape sneered, looking rather disdainful.
"I am not opposed to teaching students some dueling skills. This knowledge may come in handy one day, but does this have anything to do with the diary incident?" Dumbledore raised his eyes and glanced at Tom.
"Find something for the students to do so that they think they are working hard, which can dilute the fear in their hearts." Tom forced himself not to look into the eyes of Snape and Dumbledore, "During the opening of the Duel Club, everyone
The dean can take the opportunity to check the students' personal belongings."
As long as people are free, they will have random thoughts, so it is better to make the little wizard's life more fulfilling, so that they have no time to think about the secret room.
"What if the diary was carried by that child?" Professor Sprout felt that searching personal belongings was a bit excessive, and she noticed the loopholes in this method. She and McGonagall discussed the whereabouts of the dark magic diary.
The final conclusion was that it most likely bewitched more than one student, and immediately hid in another student who was bewitched by it after the action failed.
This conjecture made the two professors a little worried.
"We can think of a way to solve this problem, such as finding an excuse to let the students change into the duel uniforms we prepared, and then take out the sundries on their bodies." Tom replied casually, and he looked at the four thoughtful people.
Professor, "Do you have any opinions? Or do you have a better plan?"
If there is a more suitable plan, several professors really don't have one. Now Hogwarts really needs to hold an event to inspire people. A duel club can just meet this requirement.
However, when everyone was about to leave Dumbledore's office after discussing the club and the search, Lockhart took the initiative to stay. He still had something to talk to Dumbledore.
…
Time has entered December in a blink of an eye, and Christmas is gradually approaching. The deans of each college have begun to collect the lists of students who will stay in school for Christmas this year. Due to the turmoil in the Chamber of Secrets, most of the little wizards chose to return.
Christmas at home.
Harry was extremely anxious about this. He was almost certain that Malfoy was responsible, but he had no evidence. He, Ron, and Neville were as anxious as ants on a hot pot and couldn't think of any solution.
Harry, Ron and Neville walked through the hall together and headed to the auditorium. Ron was a little annoyed along the way, "Maybe we should capture Malfoy and torture him to find out his family's conspiracy."
Neville's expression suddenly changed, and he rarely refuted Ron.
"Look, what seems to have happened over there?" Harry changed the subject, easing the awkwardness in the group. The two of them followed his gaze and saw a group of people gathered around the bulletin board, reading a
The announcement had just been pinned up. After a few questions, they found out: the professors were going to open a dueling club! There would be the first party tonight, and Professor Snape and Professor Lockhart would appear together to show the little wizards
What is a duel between adults?
The three Harrys were very interested in this, so at seven o'clock in the evening, they returned to the auditorium after dinner. By this time, the decoration in the auditorium had changed drastically. The long tables of the four houses disappeared, and a gilded statue appeared in the center of the auditorium.
A circular stage with hundreds of candles floating on the ceiling projecting light into the center of the stage, just like an opera house.
Students from all over the school rushed in here with excitement on their faces, squeezing to the front as much as possible so that they could see the details of the professors' spells.
"Where's Hermione?" A girl directly in front of them tried hard to occupy a position, looked around, and saw that she had become separated from her friends.
"I don't know -" a girl with braids next to her replied. She put her braids on her shoulders, looking very elegant.
"She is reading in the lounge, and she still has a few things to write -" The voice from behind them on the right answered their question, but it also made the surrounding little wizards look askance: With such a grand event as the Duel Club, how could it be possible?
Can you concentrate on studying?
He is truly a top student!
While they were chatting, there was a slight explosion, and in a cloud of smoke, Professor Lockhart walked onto the stage. Tonight, Lockhart was wearing a sky blue robe, dazzling. After his shining appearance,
, Snape walked up expressionlessly, wearing the black clothes he usually wore.
Lockhart looked at everyone quietly until the last little wizard closed his mouth.
