It’s my fault! How could I care about those idiots’ words and forget my true friends!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione thought she had cried all her tears away—yet seeing Wizard Sean rush here despite the danger, she found even more grievances to release.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing the loud “boom,” the door wouldn’t open—Jia Jia Siting and Neville panicked like ants on a hot pan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Use Alohomora!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Harry ran from the corridor, beside him pale-faced Ron.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Can you do it?

How dare you openly break school rules! What trick are you playing?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He strode in, his piercing glare slicing through Harry, voice thick with icy fury,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even if you were lucky enough not to be killed by it, why didn’t you stay in your dormitory? Our great celebrity, thinking you could defeat a troll?!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But as he looked down at the troll, his expression changed, locking instantly onto the cautious little wizard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wizard Sean lowered his head—he instinctively felt professors were more terrifying than trolls.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Snape’s voice squeezed from his throat, choked with suppressed rage,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ravenclaw loses one hundred points!
