Hogwarts Outsider Chapter 56: Evans

The Slytherin first years, led by their prefect Gemma Farley, hurried out of the Great Hall.

Along the way, they encountered many people rushing in different directions, and the situation around the entire auditorium seemed a bit messy.

Fortunately, some teachers took the initiative to stand up and maintain order.

As they fought their way past a group of bewildered Hufflepuffs—

"What's going on?" Draco Malfoy chased after Matthew and asked softly.

"Is there another attack?" Theodore Knott asked in a low voice on the other side.

"It's unlikely." Matthew shook his head.

All students in the school must participate in the Halloween dinner; that is to say, all the students in the school had dinner in the auditorium just now, so it is almost impossible for students who are alone to be attacked.

And judging from Professor Kettleburn's embarrassed appearance just now, he probably came from outside the castle.

It is raining heavily outside the castle, even if some students sneak away from the dinner party, there is no need to take a shower outside!

Matthew secretly pondered:

He suddenly thought of the unicorn in the Forbidden Forest that had been sucked dry of its blood!

At the same time, thinking of the flustered look of Professor Kettleburn earlier, could it be that the magical creatures in the Forbidden Forest were attacked again?

And it must be a relatively powerful magical creature.

The blood-sucking monster lurking in the castle did not dare to do anything in the castle because of Professor Grindelwald's deterrence, so it turned its attention to the Forbidden Forest... There is a possibility!

……

"Oh!" Suddenly, there was a scream in front of him.

It was Vincent Crabbe, turning the corner, when he collided with an oncoming person.

"Do you have eyes?" Crabbe exclaimed somewhat roughly.

"Wait!" Matthew shouted.

Crabbe nodded very "obediently", and quickly retracted the hand that was stretched out to beat someone.

Matthew stepped forward vigorously and helped the little boy who had fallen to the ground.

"Evans, are you okay?" Matthew asked softly.

When Matthew's hand held the other party, the other party seemed to shiver obviously. He struggled and quickly got rid of Matthew's hand——

"No... nothing..." Harry Evans whispered, "Thank you, Wakefield."

"Why are you here?" Matthew asked a little surprised, this road obviously only leads to the Slytherin common room.

"Hold... sorry..." Evans lowered his head, and his voice might cry at any moment: "I was following our prefect Percy Weasley, but I was separated by a group of people ...I bumped into the crowd, and came here without knowing it..."

"Oh!" Matthew nodded.

He raised his head and searched around for a while, to see if any teacher happened to pass by here and could send Evans back to the Gryffindor common room.

Coincidentally, he saw a person——

"Professor Troka!" he shouted.

"Wakefield?" The transfiguration class teacher strode over: "What's wrong? You should return to your common room?"

"This is Harry Evans from Gryffindor." Matthew introduced the boy beside him to Professor Troka.

"Of course, I have the impression, hello, Evans..."

"Hello, Professor!" Evans said in his mosquito-like voice.

"Evans got separated from their prefects, professor, can you send him back to the Gryffindor common room?" Matthew asked quickly.

"Of course!" Professor Troka nodded, "Come with me, Evans!"

Harry Evans glanced back at Matthew, then followed the pace of the Transfiguration teacher.

"We should go too, Matthew!" Farley, who was waiting in front of him, finally said impatiently.

A group of Slytherins were waiting for him at the corner ahead.

"Okay!" Matthew nodded and followed their footsteps.

……

"Which college did the girl next to you belong to?" Malfoy asked in a low voice as they walked in the corridor of the basement.

"Girl?" Matthew blinked and retorted, "Didn't you see clearly? It's obviously a boy."

"No, no, no!" Malfoy shook his head, and said with certainty, "That's definitely a girl, judging by her actions, I'm sure of it!"

"But he's really a boy!" Matthew spread his hands helplessly: "It belongs to Gryffindor."

"Oh!" Draco Malfoy pouted ~IndoMTL.com~ looking totally uninterested.

Turning another intersection, the Slytherin common room was within easy reach.

Matthew Wakefield frowned suddenly.

His thoughts were interrupted by Malfoy's words just now.

And now, after thinking for a while, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.

He didn't pay attention when he attended the Halloween dinner in the auditorium, but thinking about it now-

Most of the Hogwarts teachers could be seen at the guest table at that time...but Professor Troka seemed to be not among them.

And when I first met Professor Troka, his clothes were very clean, as if he had changed into a new set... But his hair was slightly wet, as if it had just been washed, It's like not drying thoroughly...

More importantly, the location where he just suddenly appeared was near the Potions classroom.

That is——

The location of the previous attack!

No...

No...

No...

Matthew shook his head, his gaze became very serious, and he seemed to have guessed something.

"Matthew, what are you waiting for, come in!" The first-year freshmen in front had already opened the door to the Slytherin common room. And Draco Malfoy kept the door closed with one hand, while reminding Matthew.

"Well, sorry!" There was an apologetic smile on Matthew's face.

Then he hurried into the Slytherin common room.

The emerald green fire illuminated the entire common room warmly.

In an instant, the tiredness on their bodies was washed away.
