Hogwarts Outsider Chapter 69: Intimidation

Looking at the gift box in front of him, he looked at the book that appeared in front of his eyes again.

Matthew laughed wantonly.

It's not because of any fear, but because at this moment, he is really happy.

Even a little excited.

"Do you think I will be afraid?" Facing the book in front of him, Matthew seemed to be talking to himself: "Haha, let me tell you, you can be said to be the best book I have ever received. A Christmas present!"

As he spoke, he stood up.

He found his dragonhide gloves in the cabinet now, and then took out Theodore Nott's dragonhide protective suit.

After fully arming himself, he returned to the gift box.

Matthew smiled and said: "Today is Christmas! What does this mean? It means that Professor Grindelwald will be at Hogwarts... Usually during holidays, the principal will return to school!"

"...so guess what would happen if I sent you to Professor Grindelwald?"

To tell the truth, Matthew is tired of the current situation, and the days of hiding this book. Especially recently, after unsatisfactory things happened one after another.

Since he has such an opportunity today, he is completely interested in passing this book on to Gellert Grindelwald... Let's see what the most powerful wizard in Europe will do with it!

If even the headmaster of Hogwarts can't solve it, then let's just settle it once and for all!

…

In the bedroom, it was as if a gust of wind was blowing.

The book was shaking slightly, as if trying to stop Matthew's behavior.

However, Matthew was unmoved at all. After putting on the dragon skin protective suit neatly, he put on the gloves again.

Suddenly, the book in the gift box was opened suddenly!

Matthew was also able to see the true face of this book for the first time...

The yellowed paper in the book was completely blank, with no words on it.

Then, at a speed visible to the naked eye, two letters appeared on it:

"Don't!"

A crooked, mysterious-looking font, and a weird shade of green.

"If you say no, then don't. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for me?" Matthew said with some contempt.

Then, he stretched out his hand and started to grab the gift rope... However, because he was wearing dragon leather gloves, he was not very flexible, so it was more troublesome to grab.

At this moment, another line of green words appeared on the blank paper:

"I have no ill intentions towards you!"

"In this case, go and talk to Professor Grindelwald!" Matthew has picked up the gift rope, and then helped the gift box again: "I hope he can believe you!"

Matthew looked excited.

Because judging from the reaction of this book, it seems to be a little afraid of Grindelwald.

That's right!

Matthew feels that it is very necessary for him to find that respectable principal now.

…

With the gift box in his hand, Matthew came to the common room.

Agnes Lestrange happened to be passing by here too, and she was about to go out.

The strange outfit on Matthew quickly caught her attention.

"Why are you dressed like this?" Lestrange asked with a strange expression.

"Ah..." Matthew could only explain casually: "It's too cold...so I'll wear more..."

Obviously this is an unconvincing reason, at least Miss Lestrange did not believe it.

But then, her gaze shifted to the gift box in Matthew's hand.

"Who are you going to give the gift to?" She asked lightly, "To Granger?"

"This is a gift for Principal Grindelwald..." Matthew didn't lie, and replied directly.

"Poor excuse!" Miss Lestrange said coldly, and then she walked out of the common room without looking back.

"Obviously this is the truth!" Matthew couldn't help muttering.

Just when he was about to walk out of Shimen——

Suddenly, he realized something was wrong!

The gift box in my hand suddenly became lighter in an instant.

He shook it quickly, but there was no sound... as if there was only one box left.

Matthew quickly came to the fireplace and untied the gift rope again.

Sure enough, the Christmas gift box is empty at this moment.

"Damn it!" Matthew muttered.

Then, he threw the gift box into the burning fireplace angrily.

…

Undoubtedly, the plan to give the principal a gift fell through.

The mysterious book left his side again on his own initiative.

Where does it go? Is it back to the Room of Requirement? Still went to other parts of the castle.

I just hope it is away from me, the farther away the better!

Matthew returned to the dormitory and took off his thick dragonskin protective suit and dragonskin gloves.

What should I do next... continue to find Principal Grindelwald?

Without the real thing, he may not be able to believe in himself.

Even if he believed himself, maybe he would think that he was possessed, as Slughorn said at the beginning, and then kill himself directly?

Matthew finally walked out of the Slytherin common room with some preoccupations. Of course, this time, he was going to the auditorium for breakfast.

…

It's just that when he passed the Potions classroom, a thick figure walked towards him and almost collided with Matthew.

"Sorry, Mr. Pringle!" Matthew quickly apologized to the castle administrator.

"Wakefield?" The big Mr. Pringle looked Matthew up and down.

"Yes, sir!" Matthew nodded.

"I'm just looking for you!" Mr. Pringle turned around and strode towards Matthew.

At the same time, he took out something from his pocket: "This thing should be yours, right? I found it at the stairs on the second floor. Your name, age, and college are written on the cover."

Matthew remembered that next to the stairs on the second floor was Mr. Pringle's office.

But now, he could only vaguely see that Mr. Pringle was holding a book.

Then ~IndoMTL.com~ Before Matthew could react, Mr. Pringle had slapped him **** the head with the book a few times.

"Don't lose everything in the future!" Pringle said viciously.

At the same time, he put the book in the pocket of Matthew's robe jacket; then, Mr. Pringle walked away.

…

Matthew Wakefield's entire body was frozen there.

His body trembled slightly.

He lowered his head and looked at his pocket.

That's right...I didn't read it wrong just now...

It was that mysterious book again. After only a few minutes, it came back to me again and came into my pocket.

And just ten seconds ago, it had a close contact with its own forehead.

"Merlin's beard!" he called softly.
