"Ha - I think we can have a good talk again~" He just resumed his actions and leaned against the wall to gasp.
"What else do you want to say, you scoundrel!" Hermione snorted.
"I have money, a lot of money. Please let me go." Lockhart looked disheveled and looked like a beggar.
"Let you go? Let you go out and continue to trick people?" Ron mocked
"You can't kill him," Betty said. She looked at Ivy, mainly speaking to him.
"I have no grudges with him," Ivey shrugged.
He walked forward, looked at the cowering Lockhart, and said bluntly, "Mr. Lockhart, if you want to survive, give me the key to the vault."
"What - you want to take it all!"
"Haha" Ivey smiled and said nothing. He gathered a ball of energy in his hand and slammed it against the wall.
"Bang!" Rubbles flew and a hole the size of a basketball appeared in the wall. Lockhart shrank even tighter.
"I'm only counting to three, it's your choice whether it's money or life." He looked directly at Lockhart and rolled up another ball of energy in his hand.
"one"
"Okay - I'll give it! I'll give it!" Lockhart rummaged around hurriedly on his body. Finally, he handed Ivy a golden key.
"What's the number?" Ivey dissipated the energy and took the key.
"Gringotts Vault 250"
"I really match you." Ivy sneered inexplicably, and then "If it's fake, you should know the consequences."
"No—no," Lockhart stammered.
"Yeah~" Ivy was very satisfied, and he punched Lockhart on the chin. Poor Dawnlight fainted again.
"What now?" said Ron
"Leave him to Dumbledore," Harry suggested.
"That's okay." Ivey thought for a while, "Then let's go back."
"Fox" he shouted
The sound of Fox playing strings fell from the air to his shoulders.
"I have to trouble you to make two more trips," he joked with a smile.
"Ah——" Fox spread his wings and screamed, as if to show his proud posture.
"Harry, the four of you go first, grab Fox's feet, two on each side."
"What about you?" Hermione asked
"I have to take Lockhart, who is heavier, with Betty to wait for the next batch."
"good"
Fox flew above the four people and lowered his feet.
"Can it move us?" Ron said doubtfully.
"Fox is not an ordinary bird." Harry was full of confidence. He took the lead in grabbing Phoenix's feet, and then nodded to Ron.
"Gudong" Ron swallowed, followed Harry's example, and grabbed Fox's other leg.
Fawkes flapped his wings vigorously and gradually began to rise. Harry and Ron were taken into the air about one meter above the ground. Then Fawkes maintained a height like a helicopter and hovered in the air.
"Hermione, Ginny, hold their legs. Hold them as you like." After all, Harry and I are not Ivy, and their arms are not strong enough. They need both hands to hold on tightly. Otherwise, they can still hold the two ladies.
The two only hesitated for a second. Ginny fell in love with Harry and Hermione fell in love with Ron.
"Hold tight," Ivy reminded. Hearing this, the two women tightened their arms.
"Well" Ivey snapped his fingers "ok, you can go Fox"
"唳————" With a long cry, Fox flew into the sky with the four of them.
"Harry did a good job," Betty said as she looked at the four people flying away.
"It's better than last year. But it's still a bit risky. It didn't have to be so troublesome, and Ginny wouldn't be in danger."
"The risk is a bit high, but it's not all bad." Betty smiled. In the distance, Fox was leading the four people, as if they were carrying two sausages.
"That's true." Ivey took Betty and watched the four of them off.
The scene was very weird, it felt like an old mother and father looking at their children in love.
Soon, Fox will return
"Thank you for your hard work." Ivey handed over two pieces of honey-glazed steak.
After Fox ate it, he rubbed his hand affectionately.
"Let's go, hug Lu Wei." Ivy grabbed his feet with one hand and hugged Betty's waist with the other hand. "Fox, take him with you."
Fox stretched out his leg to hook Lockhart, flew away again, and quickly rushed out of the pipe.
Ivy let go of his arms, hugged Betty and landed firmly on the ground.
"Boom!" This is the sound of Lockhart landing.
"Are we going to find Dumbledore now?" The four people who arrived first were still waiting here. Harry asked after seeing him land.
"Okay, but I don't know if the principal is here?" Ivey has no objection.
"唳——" Fox shouted and took the lead to fly forward.
"It seems to be asking us to follow it," Harry said.
"Let's go" he picked up Lockhart and followed him.
After turning a few corners, they arrived at the door of Professor McGonagall's office. After Ivy put Lockhart down, Harry stepped forward, knocked on the door, and then pushed the door open.
"Ginny——!" Mrs. Molly's scream was even more piercing than Tom's death voice.
She rushed over at a speed that was extremely inconsistent with her size, hugged Ginny. Mr. Weasley took a step slower, and the two hugged their daughter tightly. Harry looked past them and looked into the room. Dumbledore stood in front of the fireplace.
, looked at him with a smile. Professor McGonagall exhaled suddenly, as if her hanging heart was finally relieved.
At this time, Mrs. Molly let go of Ginny and hugged everyone one by one. "You saved him! Thank you - thank you!"
"It's all thanks to the three of them that we arrived last," Betty said a little embarrassedly as Mrs. Molly hugged her.
"How did you do it?" Mr. Weasley was scared and amazed at the same time.
"That's what we want to know too" Professor McGonagall stepped forward
Harry looked back at his friends. After hesitating for a moment, he walked to the desk and put the Sorting Hat, the silver sword and the remains of Tom's diary on the table.
Then, he began to slowly tell the whole story. From discovering Ginny killed Hagrid's rooster, to Harry hearing the terrifying whispers. From the heir appearing, to deducing the existence of the basilisk. From picking up the diary,
From finding out the true identity of the heir to locating the location of the secret room, this approximately ten-minute narrative not only detailed the entire incident, but also mixed in some logical reasoning and complex psychological activities. Everyone listened very attentively.
, there was only the noise of burning firewood in the room.
When it came to Ginny being confused by Voldemort's diary, although Harry was worried that Ginny would be punished, Harry did not shy away. Mrs. Molly's eyes were filled with tears when she heard this, but Mr. Weasley looked surprised.
"It's very exciting - a story that violates more than a hundred school rules will definitely not disappoint." Professor McGonagall, who has always been serious, also complained appropriately.
"But when you first noticed something was wrong with Miss Weasley, you should have responded in time!" She suddenly scolded loudly, and then said slowly, "Of course, your concerns are not unreasonable. In that case, I really can't
I promise to believe your words." Professor McGonagall is absolutely impartial.
"Let's get back to the point. Although the secret room was located through my magic, how did you escape from death - Potter?"
