Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 1065: A cell with new straw
da... da… da…
A string of dragging footsteps echoed in Hogwarts Castle. It started from the foyer and went up the stairs to the eighth floor.
And when the sound of footsteps wandered at the door of the Gryffindor common room for a while, it turned a corner and followed the corridor towards the Ravenclaw common room at the other end. .
, the owner who waited until the footsteps turned there again, listening to the direction change again, and returning to the first floor along the spiral staircase near the corner.
Obviously, this one who wandered around in Hogwarts late at night was the school janitor Filch undoubtedly.
Tonight, after patrolling the ground part of the castle regularly, he was ready to return to the stairway behind the entrance hall and sit there to take a nap.
But who knows, when he hurried back to the hall slowly, he happened to see a figure inside cautiously running towards the stairs.
Filch, who had been accustomed to seeing students at night, reacted quickly. He almost reflexively realized that it was a student who sneaked out in the middle of the night. And faster than him was the thin cat named Mrs. Loris he raised.
Before Filch was about to shout loudly, Mrs. Loris, who had been following his feet, rushed out suddenly, looking unusually swift.
And Filch’s yelling was only after his cat rushed out...
Hmm, all right! In fact, he still couldn't shout out, because at the moment he wanted to open his mouth, he was shocked to find that his mouth and tongue were stuck firmly at some point.
followed closely, and Filch felt an extra hand on his shoulder.
"Don't be nervous! It's me, McLean."
Suddenly, a voice rang from behind him, not very loud, but in this quiet night, it burrowed into his ears.
"Don't say anything, the student will just leave it to me... Oh, the tongue and throat curse will be automatically lifted soon, you continue to patrol!"
Before 's words fell, Filch pursed his mouth, looked at the figure coming out from behind him, didn't look at himself again, and quickly threw it toward the stairs and disappeared.
"Hmm!"
Filch snorted vigorously, but because his entire tongue was stuck to his upper jaw, he couldn't even make a loud hum.
When he thought that it was Maca McLean that he was talking to just now, he soon had to complain a few words in his heart and let it go-no way, who would let it be Maca McLean? .
……
At the same time, Maca on the other side slid past the stairs to the basement, and in a blink of an eye he caught up with the thin cat who had taken the first step.
At this time, he could see that the figure in the hall was actually close at hand.
"Miss Parkinson, good evening?"
However, Maca's voice didn't stop the opponent—she didn't even turn her head, but ran a little faster than before.
saw her swiftly passing the tapestry in front of her, and she kept walking until she reached the wall behind the Slytherin common room.
But at the same time she said the password tonight, the armor that had been standing quietly on both sides of the wall suddenly moved, crossing the axe and spear in her hand and blocking the doorway that gradually emerged.
The next moment, Mrs. Loris of Filch caught up with the figure first, and shouted at the base of the wall like a demonstration.
"Miss Parkinson," Maca then stood behind him, and continued in a leisurely manner, "I called your name, why should I keep running? You know, no matter if you get back The bedroom, the result is the same."
It was probably because the other party was always in a very nervous state just now, so he didn't think of this at all, let alone being able to identify the person behind him.
At this time, she turned around and realized that under the dim light of the torch, the small outline turned out to be Maca.
"Mak, McLean...Professor?"
"Oh, yes, that's right!" Maca looked at the girl who was as big as herself, and nodded calmly, "Although I am still in a state of resignation, it is not wrong for you to call me that. Of."
, you can see that the girl standing in front of him at this time is the Slytherin girl who has a crush on Draco Malfoy, Pansy Parkinson.
I saw that Miss Parkinson was pulling the hem of her robe, lowering her head for a while, and then suddenly whispering softly:
"I'm sorry, Professor McLean."
"Oh?" Maca seemed to say with great interest, "Why do you want to apologize to me?"
Parkinson heard the words, but he held his mouth for a while, then said:
"Yes, it's because... I didn't sleep well at night, so I sneaked out."
Maca immediately nodded and continued to ask questions:
"So...Miss Parkinson, where did you go so late?"
Regarding Maca’s question, Parkinson’s silence has obviously been longer, to the point that even people who don’t know it would be hesitant.
Then, she hesitated and said:
"I went to the Astronomical Tower... Look at the stars, you know, two meteors are very beautiful recently."
"Oh, uh..."
Hearing what she said, Maca shook her head, then turned to look down at her feet.
"Mrs. Loris, you can go back now-Filch is waiting for you!"
As he said, he pointed his finger in the direction of the stairs at the other end of the corridor, and motioned the smart skinny cat to go back to her owner.
Mrs. Loris quickly understood the meaning of Maca, and saw that she blinked those faintly fluorescent eyes, and disappeared in the shadow when she turned around.
was too long to move the cat away, and Maca glanced at Parkinson again-perhaps now I have a deep understanding of the situation, knowing that I will never escape Maca’s palm. So she looks very honest and well-behaved right now.
and after glancing at her like this, Maca casually recruited:
"Come with me! I think we should talk."
After all, Maca didn't care about anything else-he didn't even worry that the other party would run away, but turned around and walked along the slightly groggy corridor first.
Parkinson only hesitated when he saw him, and in a blink of an eye he followed him obediently.
"Professor McLean, you... will you punish me?"
Maca's pace is not fast. After the two of them walked for a short distance, he suddenly heard Parkinson behind him ask a little worriedly.
After thinking about it for a moment, Maca walks without looking back:
"Of course not! As I just said, I am now in resignation status... Moreover, even if I am still employed, your punishment should be decided by the dean of your college, Professor Snape."
"Then... Are you taking me to his office?"
"...ah, yes."
……
In fact, Maca originally planned to choose a classroom at random. After all, he just wanted to "discuss" some issues with Pansy Parkinson.
Moreover, those "problems" are quite serious, and it is not suitable for more people to know at the moment.
But when Parkinson asked if he was going to Snape’s office, although Maca knew that she had said this out of some temptation, he thought about it carefully and he felt that he was actually going to Snape’s office. Pune is also good.
So not long after, he took Miss Parkinson, who was walking behind him, to the potions professor's office also located in the underground corridor.
Of course, since Slughorn didn't exchange offices at the beginning, it has automatically become the Defence Against the Dark Arts professor's office following the change of Snape's position.
After Maca reached out and knocked on the office door, Snape didn't let them wait long outside, and soon there was a familiar impatience response from inside.
"Who?"
"Professor Snape, it's me—McLean!" Maca said, "Oh, and the sixth grader of Slytherin College, Miss Pansy Parkinson is also here."
"Huh?"
I heard Snape snorting in a little doubt, but in the next second, the office door opened automatically.
"Come in."
As soon as he pushed the door in, Maca immediately saw Snape who was standing near his desk. However, he saw that the clothes on his body were neatly dressed, and even the belts of his robe were well tied, which made people suspect that he was not asleep before.
But his hair was messier than usual, but after all, it exposed the fact that he was actually just getting up from the bed temporarily.
"Sorry~IndoMTL.com~Professor! Maybe I disturbed you so late..."
Although Maca was already considered Snape's colleague, his name for these professors has never changed. It can be seen that in his heart, these people have always been professors worthy of his respect.
"Huh, just talk about it!" Snape rolled his chin and looked at Parkinson behind Maca. "Miss Parkinson violated the school rules and was caught by you?"
This time, before Maca spoke, he heard Parkinson take the initiative:
"I'm sorry! Professor Snape—I shouldn’t run around at night, I know I’m wrong."
but, this time Maca is no longer casual with her. As soon as he waved his backhand, the office door suddenly closed with a "bang", and a curse was left on it to prevent others from opening it.
Then, he was as expressionless as Snape in an instant, just said indifferently:
"Professor, I’m sorry! Miss Parkinson violated more than school rules this time... I think she might be escorted to Wizengamore for trial soon, and she will be given a gift in Azkaban. A cell with new straw to make a bed."
Maca’s slightly outdated humor is in stark contrast to what he said. Miss Parkinson, at this moment, doesn't find it interesting at all.
