Harry Potter: The Path of Destiny

Chapter 87 Punishment (1)

Only Dumbledore and Nydia were left in the prize display room. Dumbledore was not in a hurry to ask Nydia what happened. He bent down and picked up the medals and medals that Nydia had smashed on the ground. He looked at it carefully.

Nitya was terrified inside. She tried her best to say something to defend herself, but she couldn't find any suitable words to express. She couldn't even explain what happened just now.

"It seems you know about Hagrid," Dumbledore spoke slowly, looking at Nydia.

Nydia did not speak, but nodded. She buried her head low, not daring to look directly into Dumbledore's eyes. Professor McGonagall said that she was very disappointed with herself, and how could she not be disappointed with her behavior just now? Woolen cloth

"You are aggrieved on Hagrid's behalf" Dumbledore said again.

"Sir, since you know that Hagrid is innocent and he framed Hagrid, why do you still put this hypocritical medal here?" Nidia asked her doubts.

"I should be happy for your behavior," but Dumbledore's face did not show any trace of joy, "Although we believe Hagrid is innocent, we lack evidence to prove his innocence, so there is something It has to be where it shouldn’t be.”

Dumbledore dusted off the medal and placed it back in the display case where it had been placed.

"What do you mean?" Nydia looked at Dumbledore in surprise, "Didn't you already keep Hagrid here? Didn't you let him stay in the school as a gamekeeper because you proved his innocence?"

"I'm afraid things are not what you expected. I just made a guarantee for him to ensure that he will not do anything bad again under my watch." Dumbledore said with a slight regret.

"Then now that the secret room has been opened again, wouldn't Hagrid become the number one suspect?" Nidia suddenly recalled Hagrid's hesitant expression when she left the hut. He should also be thinking about it. Worry about this matter.

"So in order to ensure that our gamekeepers will not be taken to that terrible place by the Ministry of Magic, we must resolve the matter as soon as possible." Dumbledore put his hands together and hung them in front of him.

"Sorry sir, there is still no progress in the investigation of the secret room." Nidia felt very guilty.

"You don't have to blame yourself, child. This is not something you should worry about. It's me who has increased your burden." Dumbledore sighed heavily.

"So far, the only thing I know about the secret room is that the monster should be a snake, but I have never been able to see its appearance. I have only heard its sounds intermittently." Nidia said Everything he learned was told to Dumbledore.

"Snake, it's a pity that I don't know that much about these magical creatures. It would be great if my friend was here at this time. He would definitely be able to tell us from these clues whether this is a sacred thing from all sides."

"Who are you talking about?" Nitya asked curiously.

"Newt Scamander, he is the one who knows these creatures best among the people I know." Dumbledore smiled helplessly and shook his head, "Unfortunately, I don't know where he is now."

The clue was unhelpful, and Nydia was frustrated.

"Listen, kid," Dumbledore said again, "I understand your feelings very well. These medals are an eyesore to you. To be honest, I should be happy for you to have such an idea, but do you realize I just made a very inappropriate behavior towards our administrator."

"Sorry sir, I really lost my mind. I didn't want this. I don't know what happened to me just now. Will you fire me?" Nidia started to worry. She didn't want to leave here yet.

"I can intercede for you on Minerva's side, but on Argus's side, you must punish him accordingly. You know, for a wizard who cannot use spells, the harm caused by his use of spells will It's not just his body, it's his heart." Dumbledore pointed to where his heart was.

"I'm very sorry, sir." Since Filch's identity as a squib was revealed, the students have laughed at him behind his back. For this reason, Filch has become even more sensitive. He goes around to find trouble with the students, trying to use this A way to get a little respect from others for him.

"One week," said Dumbledore, "it's not too much to ask for a week's work for Argus, and no magic."

"It's very reasonable, sir, thank you." It was just such a punishment. Nidia already felt very lucky. She had hurt Filch and shared some work with him, as she should have done.

"Okay, I think it's time for you to go back and rest. Your work will start tomorrow. Remember, you have to learn to control your own emotions." Dumbledore waved his hand, and the door to the trophy display room was opened.

After saying good night to Dumbledore, Nydia left quickly.

Dumbledore looked at the direction Nydia left and sighed heavily again. There were still too many uncertainties in this child, but fortunately his nature was not bad.

On the next day, Nitya's deeds last night spread throughout the school, and everyone had mixed reviews about it, because Filch's behavior was really not that pleasing on weekdays, so after learning the news At that time, many people secretly commented that Nitya did a great job. But the Gryffindor students were obviously not that happy, because they lost fifty points overnight. The previous rumor about Nydia bullying Astoria was revealed again. They thought Nydia is prone to violence, just like her family.

George and Fred were probably the only ones who didn't care so much about their college scores. They even secretly told Nydia that if they wanted to teach Filch a lesson next time, be sure to ask them to join them.

"I really don't understand why you suddenly wanted to get up and beat up Filch when you were sleeping so well." Michelle felt very confused.

"To be precise, I didn't hit him, I just accidentally hit him."

Nydia weakly explained that she had received various doubtful inquiries since early in the morning. Hermione asked her why she didn't use some more advanced spells to escape, and Harry asked her why she didn't come to borrow the invisibility cloak. En asked her why she didn't just knock Filch unconscious.

"Then it was just an accident."

"Not entirely." Nidia patted her head in annoyance, "I don't know what happened to me. I just followed the devil at that time."

"But why, you were fine before you went to bed, why did you suddenly run out so silently?" Michelle still didn't understand the reason why Nitya ran out in the middle of the night.

"Because of that medal, you still remember the medal for the Special Contribution Award, which he got by framing Hagrid." Nidia told Michelle the reason why she went out in the middle of the night, and told Deng What Blido told her was also told to Michelle.

"If that's the case, isn't Hagrid's situation very dangerous? There have been three attacks already," Michelle said worriedly.

"Yeah, I really hope I can find useful clues soon. As long as Hagrid is cleared of his crimes, he won't have to worry about the Ministry of Magic anymore."

In the afternoon, Hagrid found Nydia. He said to Nydia in a voice that was almost choked, "I don't know how you know about that medal. Professor Dumbledore told me that you are Thank you for smashing that medal for me, Nidia, thank you very much.”

Nidia felt that he was about to cry. You must know how strange it was to see such a huge body like Hagrid crying like a child in front of her. Nidia kept comforting him and hoping that he would cry. Don't really cry, because his appearance has attracted the prying eyes of many people.

Nidia was sure that if Hagrid really cried in front of her, there would definitely be rumors that she had bullied Hagrid, no matter how absurd this possibility was.

"If Filch dares to embarrass you, tell me and I will make him look good." Hagrid said to Nidia before leaving. He told Nidia not to feel sorry for beating Filch.
