Hogwarts: I've acquired the Father System

Page 166

Darren listened to the sounds and followed them upstairs, carefully controlling the time.

Three minutes later, Darren finally appeared where a crowd of onlookers were gathered.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have gained 500 Holy Father Points.]

"what happened?"

Darren asked, puzzled.

However, no one answered his question; instead, they made way for him after he asked it.

Darren immediately saw Harry and his two companions, who were surrounded by onlookers. The three of them were pale and trembling.

It was as if he had witnessed something terrible. It must have been Lady Loris, petrified. This tragic savior.

"Brother, are you alright? Why is everyone surrounding you? Are you hurt? Were you bullied?"

Darren rushed over anxiously and carefully examined Harry.

His face was extremely pale, and he looked even more pitiful than Harry and the other two.

"No, it's..."

Harry quickly shook his head, turning his gaze to the side. Darren pretended to only then notice the scene beside him.

Two torches were burning on the wall next to it, and between the two torches, some writing was smeared with something.

The secret room has been opened.

Beware of those who oppose the heir!

And there was a cat hanging under the writing.

The cat stared at Darren with its round eyes. Its thin, bony body suddenly reminded Darren of Lezi, who had disappeared somewhere.

Since that guy ran away from Hagrid last year, he's rarely been on top of him anymore.

That guy now prefers to sleep in his dorm during the day, but at night he still runs around like before.

He remembered that Lez and Lady Loris had become good friends. He wondered where Lez had gone after Lady Loris was petrified. But those were all irrelevant matters.

Darren feigned nervousness and cautiously approached. He hesitated for a moment before removing Mrs. Loris from her body. He gently tapped her body with his wand. She was indeed petrified; there was nothing else wrong.

Darren placed his hand on Mrs. Lorris's head again, preparing to try his mind-healing magic.

just.

"Potter, who gave you permission to mess with these things?"

Chapter 167 Mr. Filch's Fury!

Snape stared at the little brat with annoyance.

He knew that giving this little brat the power of healing was definitely not a good thing.

Under what circumstances would you dare to use spiritual healing techniques?

If this is a fatal problem, will the little brat also die?

"Potter, who gave you permission to touch these things?"

If he hadn't arrived in time, the Potter brat would be dead here!

"Teach, professor... I just want to try... I feel like I know something."

Darren stammered. He looked startled.

However, he still tried to explain to Snape his intention to save the cat.

"Pshaw, what do you know? Can you possibly know more than a professor or a school principal?"

"You're going to try any method on this cat? Maybe you're planning to kill someone for Harry Potter—no, kill the cat to silence it?"

Snape laughed sarcastically.

Before Darren could muster the courage to explain, he suddenly turned his gaze to Harry.

"Right? The famous Harry Potter, he must have absolutely hated this cat, so I don't know what he did..."

"I don't!"

"Harry said angrily. Darren also anxiously explained, "Professor, Mrs. Norris is petrified. Harry can't do it."

Snape looked into his eyes and instantly thought of Lily.

Lily is the same way; she is always intelligent, kind, and has her own explanation for everything.

She's like a warm little angel. Darren is so much like her.

He can't even bring himself to be angry with Darren.

But he couldn't let things continue like this. Darren had to hate him.

Just as Dumbledore said, no Death Eater would care whether Harry Potter's brother was innocent.

Therefore, in order to avoid involving Darren in the future, he must sever ties with Darren as soon as possible.

Then his eyes gradually became empty, and he said sarcastically, "Harry Potter can't do it, but he still has you, his brother, right?"

All the evidence proves that Harry Potter did this. Only the three of them didn't attend the banquet. So, if it wasn't them, then who was it?

It's impossible that someone deliberately framed them and wronged them, right?

As for you, you're also a suspect. You suddenly left before, and then reappeared here; maybe you helped him...

What your accomplices did... I'm going to tell Dumbledore, and you'll all be expelled..."

As Snape spoke, he stared into Darren's eyes. He expected to see an angry expression.

To his surprise, the little brat seemed to have figured something out after listening to him. Suddenly, he interrupted him and mustered up his courage to say, "Professor, actually, I did all of this... I've been disliking Mrs. Loris lately."

So people… so I tricked Mrs. Lorris into coming here, and then petrified her…

But none of this has anything to do with my brother... Please don't fire him, fire only me...

Snape remained silent.

He shouldn't have had any expectations of this little brat.

Even after he said all that, this brat doesn't hate him or say anything; he even thinks that someone might really be framing Harry Potter.

In order to prevent Harry Potter from being expelled, they went along with his words and helped Harry Potter take all the blame.

"Darren didn't do it! Neither did I!"

Harry glared angrily at Snape.

Snape stood up straight with disdain.

What else could this reckless lion possibly want to do?

"Wait, I'll go get Dumbledore and see what he says... Perhaps he'll expel you all!"

Snape turned abruptly, dragging his robes, and left in a flurry of black fabric.

Harry and the others watched Snape's retreating figure, their hearts pounding in their chests.

However, he still turned around and looked at Darren.

“Darren, I’ve dragged you into this again…”

Harry said sadly.

He didn't know why, but he kept hearing those strange and terrifying sounds.

After attending the memorial service today, he heard that voice again.

Because the voice sounded so terrifying, he rushed to the scene out of fear. What he found was this very sight.

They originally wanted to leave, but someone saw them, and now many people say that he did it.

"It's okay, brother, I believe you!"

"Darren said firmly," Harry said, smiling happily. "Yes, Darren believed him."

Darren is always like that; he always believes in him.

But he couldn't help but smile bitterly.

Darren, who trusted him, was also accused of being an accomplice by Snape. If only he had just listened to Snape and told him what he did, instead of contradicting him, Darren wouldn't have been implicated.

Now look what's happened; they might all be expelled.

"Those who oppose the heir, beware! You'll be next, Scarface!"

Malfoy squeezed in from outside, gloating.

He burst out laughing at Harry and the others' disheveled appearance.

However, when he saw Darren, his expression changed, and he quickly retreated.

Darren is his brother, but he always beats him up. The worst part is, he can't beat Darren.

Even if Darren didn't use his strength, he could only be beaten up by Darren. He didn't want to get beaten up by Darren again here.
