Chapter 1370
After the Apparition lesson, Harry immediately told Darren and the others about him eavesdropping on Malfoy.
"He had Crabbe and Goyle stand guard; he must be in the Room of Requirement," Harry said through gritted teeth.
He couldn't wait to monitor Malfoy immediately.
Of course.
He and Ron also imagined what Goyle and Crabbe would look like if they turned into women.
They used so much Polyjuice Potion; maybe they had to turn into girls every day.
This was too...
When Harry went back, he had Dobby and Pachi (although he couldn't command her) continue to monitor Malfoy.
He couldn't let his guard down.
He thought that maybe if he watched closely enough, he could get more news about Malfoy.
But for the next two weeks, he gained nothing. All he saw were Goyle and Crabbe, and sometimes they would stand guard at the door of the Room of Requirement.
Sometimes they weren't there.
Harry tried to deliberately bang on the door when Malfoy was inside.
He also tried to open the door Malfoy often stayed in when Malfoy wasn't in the Room of Requirement.
But it was obvious.
This wouldn't work; Malfoy's door couldn't be opened like that. Darren could open it, but he didn't want to ruin the plot.
So the situation could only remain deadlocked.
Harry couldn't get Malfoy expelled or put in detention just because he was always sneaking into the Room of Requirement.
After all, Dumbledore didn't say it was off-limits.
He could only endure it.
Time transitioned from February to March. The Hogsmeade trip in March was canceled.
This wasn't very surprising.
After the incident with Katie, it was normal for the school to make such a decision.
And the Daily Prophet had reported several more cases of students' parents going missing.
"My birthday is coming up soon, and I thought I would have a birthday trip!"
Ron said indignantly.
"All you'll have now is the boring Apparition course!"
Harry lamented.
After three Apparition lessons, their evaluation of the course had become "boring."
Aside from some people getting splinched during Apparition, which made everyone feel a bit interested, there was nothing exciting.
"I really have no talent for Apparition. If I were like Darren and learned it in the first lesson, then I definitely wouldn't go again!"
Apparition was too difficult.
Three lessons had passed, and not only were Harry and Ron feeling frustrated, many people were a bit unwilling to go.
After all, except for Darren, others only got splinched, and so far, not a single person had succeeded perfectly.
One morning in March.
Harry climbed out of bed and threw a gift to Ron.
Ron was woken up by the impact.
But he wasn't unhappy at all.
Because today was his birthday, and he finally enjoyed the feeling of receiving many gifts.
And at the same time, Lezi also brought the gift Darren had sent to Ron.
Lezi was Darren's cat.
Harry and Ron both knew.
When Darren fell into the Veil, this cat hadn't eaten or drunk anything. If Harry hadn't forced it to eat and drink, it would have died long ago. And after Darren returned, Lezi miraculously recovered to its original state.
It became cute again.
Harry thought it was good that it was like this.
