Chapter 1373

At this time, a gurgling sound was already coming from Ron's throat.

Darren waved his wand.

A bezoar flew in from outside.

Darren pointed at Ron.

The bezoar went into Ron's mouth.

Ron finally stopped moving...

"In short, Ron's birthday really didn't go well."

Fred said helplessly.

Harry was also torn between laughter and tears.

Who would have thought that going to Slughorn for a drink could lead to such a thing.

Encountering such a poisoning incident.

"Luckily Darren thought of it; he used a Summoning Charm to get that bezoar, otherwise..."

Harry shook his head.

Ginny sobbed.

"So, the poison was in the wine?"

"Yes, it sounds like it. Someone sent it to Slughorn, asking him to pass it on to someone, but he intercepted it..."

"It seems he shouldn't be a Death Eater, and he hasn't been under the Imperius Curse. Dumbledore has already checked him..."

They whispered.

Then the sound of the door being pushed open interrupted their conversation.

It was Hagrid.

Hagrid was carrying a snakeskin bag.

He walked near the hospital bed and said helplessly: "I was in the forest all day... I was keeping Aragog company; he's sicker..."

"I heard Professor Sprout mention this incident. Who would want to harm Ron!"

Hagrid said sadly.

At this time, the Weasleys arrived.

They visited Ron and then hugged Harry and Darren.

"I heard them say it was you, Darren, who stuffed the bezoar into his mouth so he could survive, and Harry was the one who called Madam Pomfrey in time..."

They cried loudly.

This made Harry and Darren extremely awkward.

Fortunately, Madam Pomfrey came out at this time and said that only six people could be in the ward, and everyone else had to leave.

This gave Harry and the others an excuse to rush out with Hagrid.

"It's too terrible... Although Dumbledore hasn't said anything, I know he is very worried... He has taken many measures, yet children are still getting hurt..."

"Before, the Board of Governors even thought that Hogwarts should be closed. Dumbledore insisted on not doing so; he felt that if the children were sent back, it might be even more dangerous."

"At the very least, he is here now, and he can ensure most children are safe, but accidents keep happening... No wonder Headmaster Dumbledore is so angry with Snape..."

Hagrid blurted out.

Harry immediately grasped the key point.

"What did you say? Dumbledore is angry with Snape?"

"I didn't... Anyway, you should worry less about adult matters!"

Hagrid pretended to leave.

But Harry blocked his path and said: "If you don't tell me, I'll bother you every day. You know I can do it!"

Hagrid glared in anger.

Finally, he had no choice but to say: "I shouldn't have heard it... That day I went into the forest, I heard Snape say he didn't want to do it anymore... It sounded like... he felt the work was too heavy... Alright, that's all I heard!"

Hagrid said uneasily.

"He doesn't want to do it anymore? Do what? Be a double agent?"

Harry said suspiciously.

Hagrid looked at him and said sternly: "I know your suspicion of him, but I think Snape is a good person. I believe in Dumbledore!"

After he finished, he strode away.

Only Harry was left glaring behind him.

The following days.

Harry's mood was at an all-time low.

Because Ron was hospitalized, he had to find McCall to be the Keeper again, but McCall didn't listen to instructions at all.

His ability was insufficient, but he talked a lot, directing this and that.

Harry couldn't stand this about him the most.

And Ron woke up and always looked at him with eyes worried that Harry wouldn't use him as Keeper in the future, which made Harry even more helpless.

Then, on the day of his Quidditch match, Hagrid also told them that Aragog had finally died.

*Cough. *

Hagrid didn't use the word "finally."

It was what Harry and the others thought.

Darren had been waiting for this news.

He just thought it would be a few more days, at least after Harry's Quidditch match.

He didn't expect it to be on the very day of Harry's Quidditch match.

Hagrid invited them over.

Harry needed to play in the Quidditch match, Ron was in the hospital wing, and Darren could only go.

He told Harry that he could try one of his hypotheses; if he could get Slughorn to go to Hagrid's, he could get Slughorn's memory.

Harry felt a bit guilty.

In fact, if Darren hadn't mentioned it, he would have forgotten long ago.

He thought about Darren's absent-mindedness these days and suddenly understood why.

Because while he was always thinking about Snape and Malfoy, Darren was thinking about completing the assignment Dumbledore had given them.

This made him feel extremely guilty...
