From beginning to end, Professor Lupine had been sleeping in the corner. When Malfoy was talking nonsense, his body twitched, but no one noticed his little movement. After Tom instantly killed Malfoy, Professor Lupine returned to his calm expression.
He fell asleep, and not even the arrival of the small dining car could wake him up.
No matter how much he said, it was time to finish, so Tom took out his new version of wizard chess and started playing chess with Harry and the others.
When he took out Tom's homemade wizard chess, he also brought out a newspaper - the same one he got from Harry yesterday. Ron was immediately attracted by the unmoving photo on it.
.
"Is this a Muggle newspaper?" He immediately saw Sarah's motionless face in the newspaper.
"Yes," Tom handed the newspaper over, "it's about the discovery of a Muggle archaeologist." He glanced at Hermione, who fiddled with the straps of Crookshanks' wicker basket.
.
Sure enough, Ron's attention was drawn away.
"Don't let that thing out!" He threw away the newspaper and said hurriedly. Unfortunately, it was too late. Crookshanks nimbly got out of the basket, stretched out and jumped into Ron's lap.
He turned his head, but was pushed down by Ron.
"Ron!" Hermione called him angrily, then held Crookshanks in her arms and gently scratched his chin. After scratching for a while, she handed him to Tom and asked him to
Also experience the pleasure of petting a cat.
Tom took Crookshanks and felt heavy and warm. He touched the cat's head and stroked Crookshanks along the fur from head to bottom. Crookshanks also raised his head in cooperation.
Buttocks, telling him to touch all the way to the base of his tail.
After repeating this several times, Crookshanks rolled in Tom's arms and rubbed his head in Tom's arms like a baby. He was very close to Tom and even allowed him to put his hands on him like Hermione.
On your own belly.
Crookshanks finally calmed down in their hands, but he still often looked at Ron with his persimmon-like face and stared at his breast pocket.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, it started to rain outside, and the mountains outside the window gradually became blurry. As the train headed north, the rain showed no signs of slowing down. Instead, it fell heavier and heavier, and the water outside the window was like a waterfall.
The sky outside dimmed, and the lights on the aisle and luggage rack also turned on. The strong wind howled outside the car, and the raindrops hit the glass of the car window, causing the car window to shake. However, these changes did not hinder Lu at all.
Professor Ping was sleeping, with his head leaning against the car window, sleeping soundly.
When it was dark outside the window, the train began to slow down and gradually stopped. Tom sighed and moved towards Hermione.
"Great, we're here," Ron said happily, "I'm starving..."
Hermione quietly pulled Tom's sleeve and stretched her wrist in front of him, revealing a delicate mechanical watch for women.
The time is wrong.
The speed of the Hogwarts Express is constant, and the arrival time has never deviated much, and now there is still almost half an hour before the arrival time.
"We haven't arrived yet, and the train stopped halfway." Hermione whispered.
At this time, other little wizards on the train also discovered the problem. They poked their heads out of the compartments and tried to figure out what had happened. The train had completely stopped at this time, and the sound of wind and rain outside the carriage became even stronger.
Suddenly, all the lights went out, and a chill came over.
"Fluorescence!" Tom immediately used the lighting technique to illuminate the carriage.
With a creak, the door to the box opened, and Ginny ran in.
"Ron——"
"Sit down first." Tom motioned Ginny to find a place to sit down first, secretly tensing his nerves.
He looked outside and was disappointed to find that the entire train was in chaos, with everyone running around like headless flies in the darkness - but few people used the lighting spell.
This is obviously the simplest spell, but no one in the train of wizards has this awareness!
If Grindelwald saw this scene, he would definitely give up the idea of wizards ruling Muggles at the speed of light, and directly develop a spaceship to wander in space.
Tom sighed and sat back in his seat.
As soon as his butt touched the seat, the door of the compartment slid open, and a very tall figure stood at the door. Its head was almost touching the ceiling of the compartment, wearing a tattered cloak, and its face was completely covered
Covered by a cloak. It stretched out a gray-white hand from under the cloak. Those hands looked like rotting corpses soaked in water...
It made a gurgling sound in its throat and took a slow breath. In an instant, a biting chill swept over the place. Professor Lupine suddenly opened his eyes and stood up.
Tom felt that the chill had passed through his clothes, penetrated into his chest, spread from his skin to his texture, and then flowed into his internal organs...
He knew that this cloaked monster was the Dementor from Azkaban, but he didn't expect this guy to be so terrifying. There was a whistling in his ears, and he felt as if he had been soaked in ice water, overwhelmed by pain and suffocation.
he.
Harry on the other side rolled his eyes, fainted, and fell off the seat. Tom was almost the same, he was just struggling to hold on.
The Dementor noticed the violent reaction of Tom and Harry, but Tom seemed to be more attracted to it. The big pale hand directly placed on his shoulder. Tom subconsciously held the hand, but the approaching cameraman seemed to be more attracted to it.
The ghost monster intensified his reaction, and his vision went dark and he passed out.
The whirring in Tom's ears became louder and louder. For a moment, Tom felt as if he was submerged in the water and sinking into the water little by little. The next moment, he felt as if he was still in that extremely depressing orphanage. His memory was like
It was like broken glass, scattered into pieces. In this despair, Tom couldn't move, even if he wanted to move his arms, he couldn't.
Fortunately, a ray of light suddenly appeared under the dark water.
Harry and Tom's coma made the carriage even more chaotic. Lupine took a step forward and took out his wand, but before he could do anything, Hermione pointed the wand at the dementor and shouted angrily:
"Call the gods to protect you!"
The three-headed dog roared out and pushed the Dementor out of the box. It turned around and was chased and bitten by the three-headed dog. It floated away in a state of embarrassment.
As the dementors left, the lights in the carriage suddenly returned to normal.
Professor Lupine looked at Hermione with some surprise. He never expected that any of these students had mastered the Patronus Charm - they were not even in their third year!
More importantly, that girl's patron saint...
But at this time, Hermione didn't care about other people's opinions. She held Tom in her arms who had fainted and kept twitching.
