After the sky lighted up, the Gryffindor students in the common room finally waited for the news. Professor McGonagall, with a tired face, regretted to tell everyone that Black had escaped again.
Professor McGonagall just turned to leave the common room. Shanna walked a few steps and walked through the portrait tunnel behind Professor McGonagall. Obviously, she had something to say to Professor McGonagall.
Seeing this scene, Fred, George, and Lee Jordan looked at each other and shrugged back to the dormitory to make up their sleep. It was not difficult for them to guess that Shanna wanted to tell Professor McGonagall just now.
As for the result, the three had actually guessed it.
The students who were holding their breath and waiting for the news were all sleepy, and went back to their dormitories to rest. The common room suddenly became empty.
Soon after, Shanna returned to the common room, but just by looking at the expression on the other's face, Professor McGonagall obviously didn't like these self-righteous "speculations", not to mention they suspected that there was Black's helper in the school.
"You are right, Professor McGonagall doesn't want to believe these speculations."
Noting the questioning glances from other people, Shanna reluctantly said: "However, she agrees with Black's guess that he slipped into the castle from the secret road."
There are so many secret passages in the castle, even Filch can't know where they are all. Perhaps Blake discovered a certain secret passage leading to the outer layer of the castle when he was studying in school.
"They are all adults, and they are more willing to trust their own judgments than to listen to a minor gesturing around. Especially when there is no evidence, don't expect to be able to influence other people's thoughts. This is ridiculous." Albert Pointing out without mercy, "To be honest, what you did just now is quite irrational."
"Actually, I would rather trust your judgment. To a certain extent, you see things more thoroughly than most so-called smart people." Shanna said after a moment of silence: "If anyone can catch Black, I I bet that it must be you, not the professor at Hogwarts or the Auror at the Ministry of Magic."
"You are very confident of me." Albert was a little surprised.
"After all, you can predict, don't you?" Shanna said naturally.
"Actually, I think Dumbledore should ask you for help. They don't have to mess around there." Alia is also very confident in Albert. She has not forgotten that Albert discovered the attack last year. The killer of the Muggle Wizard was the Basilisk, and by this it led to the heir of Slytherin.
"My prophecy fee is very expensive." Albert smiled.
"If you can catch Black, you can get ten thousand gallons in one go." Shanna pointed to the reward in the newspaper about Black, "This is worth your countless predictions."
"No, at least I can get the prophecy fee in the first time." Albert looked at the reward list on the Daily Prophet, and said meaningfully, "As for Blake's reward, whether I can get it in the end, it's a question. ."
"Okay, let's go back to rest first. We were tired after not sleeping all night. If there is any new discovery, please tell us." Angelina reached out her hand to cover her yawn and greeted others to go back to the dormitory to make up for sleep.
Black's invasion undoubtedly shocked Hogwarts, and the group of dementors who tried to help search the castle were again blocked by Dumbledore with his wand.
The dementors were very annoyed by this, but they had nothing to do.
In the end, the Ministry of Magic can only influence the school through the school board, so... the safety of Hogwarts castle has been further strengthened.
First of all, Sir Cadogan was sacked, which relieved the majority of Gryffindor students. The incompetent goalkeeper was placed back on the original eighth floor stair platform. He was extremely indignant and aggrieved about this. Sir Cadogan just followed the rules to act, and the whole thing was not his fault.
In order to get the fat lady back to work, Dumbledore promised to hire some people to protect her safety. He happened to have just received a notice from the school board. As a result, the corridor leading to the Gryffindor common room was filled with rude and rude gnomes.
These guys are not qualified security guards, at least in Albert’s view. They only walk in the corridors at threatening steps, mumble and talk, and even compare the size of the sticks in their hands. Or hit the head of the partner next to him with a stick to explore the truth about whether the stick is strong or the head is strong.
Oh my god!
Those who didn't know it thought it was a gangster.
"I very much doubt whether they are qualified for this job. It is really hard to imagine that Professor Dumbledore would be willing to spend money to use them to strengthen security."
After Professor Flitwick took Black's wanted list and identified each security guard guarding the front door, Albert walked over to talk about it with Professor Flitwick.
"This is a security guard hired by the school board. The magic part cannot be stationed at Hogwarts by the Auror. You can only do so." Professor Flitwick said as he walked. "However, I think there is no magic wand in their hands. Sirius Black should be more than enough."
When the two passed a corner of a corridor, they saw Filch trying to nail the mouse hole in the wall with a wooden board.
"To be honest, I suspect that Black's goal is not Harry Potter." Albert said to Professor Flitwick. "Otherwise, Ron Weasley would have died last night, together with Harry Potter in their dormitory. Potter and even a few other students will also be killed. With Blake's fierceness, I don't think he will spare a group of sleeping children, plus one of them is the object of hatred that he dreams of killing."
"There are indeed a lot of doubts. Maybe we need to wait for Blake to be caught before we have a chance to figure out the reason." Professor Flitwick kindly reminded: "However, it is Auror's job to catch Blake."
"The Ministry of Magic has always been very unreliable in doing things, such as letting dementors into Hogwarts." Albert murmured: "Sorry, I have always been a fan of dementors."
"No one likes those things." Professor Flitwick stopped and said to Albert. "If you predicted something, you can tell me or Dumbledore."
"I predicted that Black was caught, sir." Albert said after hesitating for a moment. "On one night, I saw from the crystal ball that I had caught Sirius Black, but the Ministry of Magic seemed to be going to go wrong. , Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge is not willing to give me Black’s bounty."
"This…"
Professor Flitwick’s expression was a bit wrong, and he didn't expect Albert to say such things.
"Did you catch Black?" he asked tentatively.
"This is just a professor of prophecy, and there may still be changes in the future," Albert said calmly. "To be honest, I want to know the credibility of the Ministry of Magic."
"If you really catch Black, I don't think the Ministry of Magic will go wrong." Professor Flitwick said after a moment of silence, "If you want to see Professor Dumbledore..."
"Professor Dumbledore should be very busy now. I think it's better not to disturb him." Albert shook his head. "Besides, if you predict this kind of thing, you are not allowed to say anything."
Professor Flitwick looked at the back of Albert's departure and walked quickly toward the principal's office. When he knocked on the door and entered, Principal Dumbledore was writing a letter in the office.
"I met Mr. Anderson just now, and he said..." Professor Flitwick told Dumbledore what had just happened.
"Mr. Anderson is suspicious of the credibility of the Ministry of Magic." Dumbledore asked with interest.
"Yes, he seems to be very upset about the Ministry's recklessness." Professor Flitwick asked suspiciously, "However, I thought you would care more about him catching Black."
"Under what circumstances will the Ministry of Magic reckless." Dumbledore put down the quill. "What do you think Mr. Anderson wants to tell us?"
"Maybe Blake is innocent?" Professor Flitwick felt incredible.
"Yes, if Blake is innocent, I think the Ministry of Magic will definitely withdraw the reward for Blake. Based on my knowledge of Fudge, he is definitely unwilling to pay the Gallon, and he will naturally fall back." Dumbledore Speculated.
"But why doesn't Mr. Anderson want to come and tell you this in person?" Professor Flitwick was puzzled by this, "and how could Black be innocent."
"Back then, Sirius Black was imprisoned in Azkaban Prison without trial." A light flashed on Dumbledore's glasses. "So, we don't really know what the specific situation is."
"But why did he break into Hogwarts late?" Professor Flitwick said again, "he obviously intended to murder..."
"Neither Harry nor his roommate were injured. I think Mr. Anderson probably guessed something." Dumbledore crossed his hands and said calmly, "However, he probably knows that we are more willing to believe what we guessed. Anderson. The husband is a very smart person. He understands what it means if Black is really innocent, so he took precautions for us in advance, and... he was obviously disgusted by the Ministry of Magic's reckless practices."
