Chapter 387 385. Snape: The effect of the medicine has begun
If Jon heard what Snape was saying now, he would definitely greet him with a big mouth.
Even if you are an opponent, you can't think of people so wretchedly, right?
Just when Jon and Lee were hurting each other, Hermione had quietly arrived inside the principal's office.
She didn't bother avoiding the Auror from the first floor, and then climbed up to the seventh floor. Instead, she let Fox use Apparition and took her directly into the room.
When looking for the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets, Fox came in once as a bird, and this was Dumbledore's office and its old nest before, so it can be regarded as familiar.
Fawkes deliberately chose a corner close to the tower, and landed with Hermione, but the golden-red light still attracted the attention of the cold-blooded creature in the office.
It was not as exaggerated as the basilisk, but it was still a huge poisonous snake with emerald green scales.
Nagini.
Voldemort's personal pet, a blood-cursed orc that has been completely animalized.
But Hermione obviously didn't know the background and identity of the poisonous snake. For now, she still didn't know anything about the snake's condition, but she didn't need to worry about dealing with it.
The moment Nagini and Fox met each other, a snake and a bird rushed out facing each other!
They have fought against each other once before, and it has not been long since today, so they are no strangers.
And Hermione didn't hesitate at all after landing. The evening dress on her body had been replaced by a loose robe for everyday use. From the pocket of the robe, she took out a silver instrument that looked like a lighter.
The next moment Fox rushed towards Nagini, she pressed the switch of the silver lighter!
"Boom!"
There was a sound like a thunderstorm. The noise was not small, and the floor of the whole room trembled. At the same time, when Jon entered the principal's office, there were no magic portraits on the surrounding walls, but now they were covered with magic portraits. Countless sparks burst out in an instant, and then the photo frame shattered, accompanied by a faint scream, all the portraits were burned.
Originally, this lighter only had the function of turning off the lights. Destroying the portraits is a function specially modified and added by Dumbledore according to Hermione's needs this time. It is attached with an ancient violent curse, and it is the easiest to deal with these portraits with independent thinking consciousness. Effective, the only problem is that the noise is too loud, under normal circumstances, there is no way to use it, so it is necessary for Jon and Lee to attract the attention of Crouch and Snape in the auditorium.
At the same time, Hermione also had to keep an eye on the movements of the patrolling Aurors in the castle, making sure that none of them chose to do anything near the seventh floor.
Such an opportunity is not easy to find, but fortunately, all the actions so far have been smooth. Fox is not even afraid of the basilisk, let alone dealing with the poisonous snake Nagini.
Putting away the silver lighter, Hermione could finally focus on the four relics on the table in the middle of the office.
"Okay, it's almost time, we are going to leave now and go to the small garden outside the castle."
Li glanced at the wall clock directly in front of the auditorium, and whispered to Jon.
Jon also nodded.
"Hurry up and find a place where no one is around. You drank the voice-changing potion."
"Hey, how could you be like this, with Hermione's appearance, isn't my voice exciting?"
"If you say such disgusting words to me here again, tomorrow I will blow the mouths of both you and George!"
"I was wrong! You should only bomb George, he is more hateful than me!"
The two kept moving their mouths, and stood up from their positions together at the same time. Li naturally held Jon's arm. Jon controlled himself not to show any flaws, but he still couldn't help but feel a tingle on his arm. A burst of goosebumps.
"Why do I feel that you are shaking?" Li whispered.
"Do you let a man shake your arm?"
"Relax, can't you imagine me as Hermione herself?"
"If you can keep your mouth shut, maybe I can do it."
Many people noticed the movement of them getting up. Jon's every move attracted attention, and even the Aurors who were in charge of guarding around him paid most of their attention to him.
Because Jon is so good at making troubles, the more it is easy to relax vigilance in this kind of excitement, the more Lucius asked his men to keep an eye on Jon.
If Jon had agreed to his request for cooperation before, maybe Lucius would turn a blind eye and turn a blind eye now, and Jon would do whatever he wanted.
But after being rejected like that, it seemed a little love-hate, Lucius felt that he had to be loyal to his duty in order to be worthy of Voldemort.
Therefore, he has been staring at Jon and Hermione tonight. According to what he has known about Dumbledore for so many years, Christmas is such an excellent opportunity to prevent his students from doing something. Dumbledore can't be called Dumbledore.
However, when Li held Jon's arm and the two were walking out together, a pair of male and female students suddenly stopped in front of them.
This made everyone staring at Jon quiet, and because of this, the entire auditorium was silent for a moment, only the weird sister band in the center of the stage was still playing dance music.
Jon squinted his eyes and looked at Emil and his dance partner standing in front of him, thinking whether this move was also some kind of plan of Crouch and Snape.
But what he never expected was that Crouch's performance now was much worse than he imagined.
"What's going on here? What did that Lestrange idiot want to do in the past?"
Snape was still sneering like that.
"You call him an idiot, do you think I will understand what an idiot thinks?"
Other people in the auditorium didn't know what Emil wanted to do, but everyone was looking forward to this scene.
Most of the students here are students of Hogwarts Castle, and Jon's current enemy on their side, although Emil is also representing their headmaster to participate in the competition, is not a student of Hogwarts after all.
So no matter what kind of conflicts arise between them, these people only have the mentality of watching the fun and not thinking it's a big deal.
Emir's face was flushed, as if he had drunk some wine.
"Jon Green!"
Emile called out Jon's name.
Jon looked at him disapprovingly, without any intention of responding, but just wanted to see what tricks this young master of the Lestrange family could pull off.
"Don't think that you are better than me just because you won the first game! Next, I will let everyone see who is worthy of being called a warrior!"
Jon brought himself into Emil's perspective, and he was embarrassed for the young master who didn't know whether he was awake or not.
He could also understand that it was definitely not Crouch's plan for Emil to stop him. The typical example is that this kid had a couple of sips of wine, and he had a dance partner by his side and talked about the first match, so he was stimulated and wanted to come Prove that you are not a loser in front of Jon, and raise the flag for the next game by the way.
After seeing clearly what state Emil is in now, Jon said sincerely.
"If you can say such things to me on this occasion, it can already prove that you are a true warrior."
Emil didn't hear the true meaning of Jon's words, and thought he was really boasting about himself. Under the influence of alcohol, his originally depressed heart couldn't help feeling a little elated.
"Hmph, you still have a little self-knowledge, but don't think that I will keep your hand in the next game like this."
While Emil was talking, the female companion beside him kept focusing on Li.
Li didn't fear her gaze, but held his chest up, but other than that, there was no more provocation.
He also knows that he can't speak at all without drinking the voice-changing potion. If he speaks, he will definitely leak it, so he should try to keep a low profile as much as possible.
But the girl from the Selwyn family obviously didn't intend to let him go, and there was a malicious smile on her face when she spoke.
"Hello, Miss Granger, I've heard of your name a long time ago."
Li is also good at putting on airs. He nodded slightly, as if giving a response but did not make a sound.
Although such a posture seems a little arrogant, it is also reasonable.
Jon didn't want to stay here any longer. As long as Hermione was involved in the topic, there was a high possibility of Li's stuffing. They had to hurry up and leave this place of right and wrong.
But sometimes things just don't go as they should.
Just when everyone's attention was gradually shifting away from them and they started to follow the music to the dance floor again, Selwyn seemed to be irritated by Li's arrogance. She lowered her voice, but raised her voice and tone.
"I've heard that Miss Granger's most famous deed is that she was hung on the back hall like a stinky fish. It's a pity that I was in France at the time and couldn't see it with my own eyes!"
These words instantly quieted the atmosphere of the scene, and even Emil was so frightened that he a little sobered up.
He stared wide-eyed at the dance partner beside him who was kissing him passionately in the center of the dance floor just now, and subconsciously pulled her away from holding his arm.
Selwyn didn't seem to notice Emil's reaction. She looked at Li with jealous anger in her eyes.
At the beginning of entering the auditorium, everyone's attention was on Jon and Hermione, which made Selwyn, who thought that he could become Emil's dance partner and thus become the focus of the audience, very angry.
Especially after she found that Hermione's appearance could not be faulted at all, this kind of anger became particularly violent.
Emil was also instigated by her to stop Jon. This is the case for a man who has just entered the gentle town. It is difficult to refuse a girl's request, and he said what he said before because of alcohol.
Now Emil has obviously woken up, but Selwyn has not yet felt the reaction of his male partner.
Li knew that he couldn't speak at this time no matter what. Although he had Hermione's insulted anger in his heart, he couldn't vent it, so he still looked at her with that contemptuous look.
But Jon's eyes narrowed at some point, and it was precisely because of this discovery that Emil took two steps back.
"If you really know about that matter, you should also know what I did back then, right? Miss Selwyn."
Hearing what Jon said, Selwyn turned to look at him at this time, but the moment she turned her face around, all her vision was covered by a slap!
"Snapped!"
Compared to two years ago, the current Jon is of course not what it used to be. Regardless of his magical attainments, his physical strength has reached the standard of a teenager.
So this unrestrained slap knocked Selwyn to the ground on the spot, and the loud sound was heard by many students around.
"Ah!! How dare you hit me!"
Selwyn's screams even overshadowed the dance music, and the wizard band, the Weird Sisters, who was playing, stopped their work and looked in this direction.
The entire auditorium was silent, everyone's eyes were focused on where they were, and the Aurors who were in charge of guarding around them also began to move around. Lucius frowned even more, and looked at a subordinate next to him Whisper something in a low voice.
On the high platform, Little Barty's face was extremely ugly.
"What the **** are these two stupid pigs doing!"
The objects of his insults were of course not Jon and Hermione, but Selwen and Emil who hindered his plan.
Snape didn't make a sound, he was quietly observing Jon's next move.
Jon's actions are of course very fast, he knows what he should do most now.
After slapping Selwyn to the ground, he immediately grabbed Li's arm, and then kicked Selwyn away who was still screaming in front of him, skipping the bold words just now, Now Emil, who had shut up and was dumb, walked quickly towards the outside of the auditorium.
The Aurors around immediately quickened their pace and wanted to follow. On such an occasion, they beat the pure blood at will. Even if Jon was one of the warriors participating in the competition, he couldn't let him leave without saying anything.
Snape on the high platform seemed to have seen everything.
"He couldn't wait anymore. Under the influence of the potion, he became manic, and even did it directly in public at any cost."
Little Barty also showed joy when he saw Jon's move to leave the auditorium immediately. He immediately left his seat and came to Lucius who was directing his subordinates, asking him to stop all Auror actions, and then Without any explanation, Lucius returned to Snape's side under Lucius' bewildered expression.
"Ah, yes, of course it's not good in front of so many people in the auditorium. They need a quiet place, don't they? Let's help them create such a place."
