[HP] Being a problem student at Hogwarts

Chapter 112 Crying Chapter 1

Hagrid stood there dumbly and burst into tears. Harry ran over to comfort him, while Ron waved randomly to other students and said, "get out of class is over, get out of class is over, let's go, don't stay here!"

The paddock quickly returned to its original quietness from the chaos, leaving only Hagrid's intermittent sobs: "I messed everything up..."

"It's not your fault, Hagrid." Hermione said sincerely. "It's Malfoy. He deliberately provoked those monsters."

Hagrid sobbed loudly and said sadly, "I don't think they've ever had a teacher for just one day."

"You have already warned us, but Malfoy did not listen. We will tell Dumbledore the truth and we will not let you be fired." Harry said with relief.

"Don't worry, Hagrid, we'll support you," said Ron.

"I suggest you catch up with Malfoy immediately to understand his injury," Tom said, "and then let Principal Dumbledore know about it before Malfoy notifies his parents on his own."

Hagrid's dark eyes looked at him helplessly.

"Listen to me." Tom said decisively, pushing Hagrid, "take action, maybe it's still too late to make amends."

"Ah...oh...ok," Hagrid wiped his tears, "I have to let these children go...otherwise they will kill him! Poor Buckbeak, what did he do wrong?"

"Don't! Maintain the scene," Tom stopped him, "If you let it go, it will only make things worse." He looked at the watch, "Forget it, now you go to Principal Dumbledore and follow his orders. "

Hagrid walked away obediently.

Harry looked hesitantly at the hippogriffs still tied to the fence and asked, "Will they really be killed?"

"They won't, but it's hard to tell with the one that hurts," said Tom.

"But that's not his fault!" cried Hermione.

"It hurts," Tom replied shortly, not prepared to argue with Hermione on the subject.

"Dumbledore wouldn't let things get to that point," Harry said confidently.

Tom smiled and said nothing.

They were the first to arrive at the Great Hall at dinner time, but Hagrid was not there, and neither was Malfoy. This made Harry very worried. After all, Madam Pomfrey could easily treat injuries much more serious than Malfoy's. He really couldn't understand why Malfoy hadn't come back yet.

"Maybe he's staying in the hospital for observation." Ron said.

Tom remained silent, he didn't think there was anything they could do at the moment. In fact, Hagrid's first lesson was to teach a ferocious monster like the hippogriff, which was very daring in itself. He could have started with something as safe and harmless as the Flobber caterpillar. Even if you want to show off your talent in magical creatures or show off your skills, you can still choose a unicorn with a gentler temperament.

As a dropout and a half-giant, he should have expected that the Slytherins would test him in the first class to see if he had the ability to become a teacher. As such a new teacher, instead of choosing a more stable teaching route first, he is eager to create a personal teaching style... You have never experienced it and still want to innovate without accumulation? It's normal for the car to roll over.

School administrators also failed to review teachers' teaching plans before the start of the school year, which is why the accident occurred in the first class. Maybe he had been persuaded, but Hagrid was very confident? No matter which one it is, Hagrid is not a qualified teacher at the moment. If Tom thinks about it, Hagrid may be suspended for a period of time, but the injured hippogriff may not be able to save his life.

In the evening, Harry wanted to visit Hagrid. Ron was hesitant and Hermione strongly disagreed.

"I can," Harry said bluntly, "Sirius Black hasn't gotten over the Dementors yet, has he?"

"You can use this to convince Hermione," Tom wrote his homework without raising his head, "but I'm afraid you can't convince the teachers. So..." he reminded them in a long voice, "put on the invisibility cloak."

Harry cheered.

But the new problem is that the invisibility cloak cannot cover four people - in fact, it can barely cover three people, and Ron has to keep bowing carefully.

"You go ahead, I have to go to the library." Tom said.

"For Merlin's sake! This is the first day," Ron said, walking out of the Gryffindor common room with them.

After saying goodbye to his friends, Tom spent some pleasant time in the library. He didn't come out of the library until late at night, avoiding the teachers and Filch who were on night patrol with ease, hugging Mrs. Norris and kissing her after a long separation - and then being kissed by the two-legged beast who could only tolerate stupidity for a short time. Mrs. Norris slapped her fleshy balls on her face - and walked back contentedly. .seven

Then he heard a faint cry.

...?

Tom looked up and glanced at the sign. It was the abandoned bathroom where the famous ghost of Hogwarts, Moaning Myrtle, lived.

But the cry was not that of a girl.

Tom pulled out his wand and gently pushed the door open.

Wearing a hospital gown, with his right arm wrapped in a bandage and hanging in a sling, Malfoy was standing with his back to the door, his left hand holding the edge of the sink, his head lowered.

"Who!" He turned around sharply, holding his wand alertly.

The two looked at each other, and the situation was very awkward for a while.

"Sorry to bother you," Tom said politely, staring at Malfoy's hands, not looking at his red eyes and face that were still stained with tears. The reason why he didn't close the door immediately was to prevent the angry Malfoy from attacking him.

Malfoy's facial muscles twitched and he lowered his wand.

"Get out." He turned back and said.

Although Malfoy's words were very rude, Tom was still willing to try to understand the social psychology of being caught by outsiders during an embarrassing period.

Tom took a step back and thoughtfully closed the door - but before the door was completely closed, Malfoy, who had been staring at the mirror, suddenly said: "I am not a coward!"

Tom's hand stopped closing the door.

A thought jumped before his eyes, and he seriously suspected that Malfoy was actually remembering things from the previous school year.

He opened the door again and said, "I never thought you were a coward. Actually, I always thought you were a bit reckless."

Malfoy glared at him in the mirror.

"You feel embarrassed? You want to prove yourself again?" Tom asked bluntly, "Because you were controlled in the Room of Requirement last school year?"

"Otherwise?" Malfoy asked coldly, "As a pure-blood wizard, he was actually controlled by a gadget! And he had to rely on a Mudblood to rescue him..." His face flushed with embarrassment.

"Language." Tom warned him.

"I guess your dad didn't tell you who it was," said Tom, "or you wouldn't have said that."

Malfoy was not stupid. He turned and glared at Tom, his lips starting to turn white.

"It seems that you have thought of it."

"...Malfoy must pay his debts." Malfoy raised his chin, "If you want to plead for that filthy half-giant and ugly beast-"

"Watch your words, Malfoy," said Tom. "I've warned you twice."

Malfoy looked at him strangely.

"You weren't going to plead for them..." he murmured.

"Do you know what this means?" Malfoy showed a proud smile, "Your Gryffindor classmates will regard this as betrayal."

Tom looked at his watch.

"It's getting late, Malfoy. If you still want to continue your confession, I'm sorry, but the trial time has expired. If you want to continue, please pay."

Malfoy blushed.

Tom nodded at him and walked away.
