Chapter 103: Snape's Daily Mockery!!
Harry pulled Darren and ran to the castle.
He frowned and looked around, discovered that Hermione and the others had followed, and hurriedly said: "We need to find Dumbledore, Hagrid told someone the method to pass Fluffy...
As for evidence, Firenze will testify for us... oh, Darren, Firenze is the centaur who saved me that day."
Harry hurriedly explained.
But he started to worry about how to go to Dumbledore's office. Fortunately, Darren knew.
They quickly arrived at the door of Dumbledore's office, only to find out that Dumbledore had gone out.
"This is bad, Snape must want to steal the Sorcerer's Stone right now.
Now the other professors are grading papers, and Dumbledore has also left the school, this is the best timing!"
Harry paced around anxiously.
Then they saw Professor McGonagall at the door of Dumbledore's office. Professor McGonagall holding a pile of exam papers.
"What are you doing here? Oh, and Darren, why aren't you enjoying your leisurely afternoon?"
"Professor McGonagall, we want to find Headmaster Dumbledore, do you know where he went?"
Hermione asked immediately.
"Find Headmaster Dumbledore? What's the matter?"
Professor McGonagall looked at them in confusion, seemingly not understanding at all why they wanted to see the Headmaster.
"Can't tell you!"
Ron blurted out.
And then they saw Professor McGonagall get angry. Her nostrils flared, and she said coldly: "Headmaster Dumbledore left, ten minutes ago, he received an emergency letter from the Ministry of Magic and flew to London immediately."
"London?!"
Harry and the others were shocked. Why did he go out at this time?
"Then can you contact him? We really have a very urgent matter to tell him, it's about the Sorcerer's Stone..."
Harry said regardless of anything else.
It was already at this point, Snape was about to steal the Sorcerer's Stone, he didn't want to wait for Dumbledore to come back anymore.
He thought Professor McGonagall was also very trustworthy. Clatter!
Professor McGonagall was startled, the papers in her hand fell to the ground. She didn't go to pick them up.
"You, how do you know..."
She asked stammeringly.
"I think Snape... someone is attempting to steal it!"
Harry hurriedly answered her.
Professor McGonagall looked even more incredulous, she opened her mouth, and said dryly: "Professor Dumbledore will be back tomorrow, I think you should go back, the Sorcerer's Stone is being strictly protected by the professors, it's not something you should be asking about..."
She said while starting to lower her head to pick up the books, after picking them up, she looked at them one last time and said: "Go back, children!"
She walked further and further away. Harry said helplessly: "By the time Dumbledore comes back tomorrow, Snape will probably have already offered the Sorcerer's Stone to Voldemort.
And that letter was definitely sent to him by Snape, I dare say, the Ministry of Magic didn't send any emergency letter at all!"
"But what can we..."
Hermione suddenly gasped.
Darren and the others turned their heads and saw Snape standing behind them.
"Good afternoon..."
Snape said in a drawn-out tone.
"Good afternoon, Professor Snape!"
Darren hurriedly responded obediently.
His eyes were full of trust, which made Snape freeze.
His eyes went blank instantly, he averted his gaze, and looked at Harry.
"Potter, I hope you won't be wandering at night next time, Gryffindor has no more points for you to deduct..."
A sarcastic smile appeared on his face, Harry thought this was already very mocking, only to hear him continue: "If I catch you again, I will expel you, personally... good luck!"
Snape turned and left, his back actually revealing pleasure. Clearly, the old bachelor had completed his daily mockery.
"Ugh!" Harry was almost driven crazy with anger.
If it weren't for the fear of being beaten to death by Snape, he would definitely have fought this bastard. Hermione and the others dragged Harry out of the castle.
Standing in the sunshine for a while, Harry finally calmed his emotions.
"Now, we need someone to watch the staff room, Hermione, you go..."
Harry said to Hermione.
"Brother, let me go, even if the professor discovers me, he won't deduct my points."
Darren hurriedly said. But he was stopped by Hermione.
"Don't be silly, he won't deduct points, but he will punish you... at the very least, he won't hit a girl."
Hermione sighed and took the initiative to run to the staff room.
Harry looked at Darren, and he suddenly said: "Darren, I also have a task for you!"
Darren nodded, his green eyes looking at Harry obediently. Harry's heart softened.
This was his younger brother. So he said seriously:
"Darren, you go and guard the Slytherin common room, prevent Snape from going back, if he goes back, you find a way to stop him, okay?"
Darren was stunned.
He felt that no matter how he thought about it, it was impossible for Snape to go to the Slytherin common room at this time.
Well, I suppose Harry didn't want his younger brother to take any risks. He wanted to lead him aside.
However, as an obedient and well-behaved younger brother, he certainly wouldn't contradict what Harry said, so he nodded and said earnestly, "If he comes back, I will definitely stop him!"
"Go!"
Harry laughed.
He pushed Darren away before looking at Ron.
"Then, the two of us will guard the fourth-floor corridor!"
Harry led Ron toward the door where Fluffy was.
They intended to guard the place; even if Snape wanted to enter, they would stop him.
However.
Just as they had taken their posts, Professor McGonagall arrived.
She was furious, pointing at them and scolding, "I suppose you think you are cleverer than the professors!
That’s enough, stop this nonsense. If I hear that you have run here again, I will deduct fifty points from you!
Weasley, don't look at me. Yes, I am going to deduct fifty points from my own house, even though I know the score has already hit rock bottom!"
Ron and Harry could only slink away.
Just as they were thinking that at least Hermione was still guarding the staff room, they saw her running back in tears.
It turned out that Snape had come out and asked her who she was looking for. She said Professor Flitwick, and Snape said he would go, then ran off.
As for where he had gone specifically, Hermione didn't know either.
