"Oh my god, my god - Wallop, are you okay? Where's Miss Granger?!" Sean rode the horse-shaped water monster to the center of the lake and met Professor McGonagall who came to the rescue.

She was riding a Sweeping Seven Stars, holding a wand, and three little kittens with silver spectacle frames were standing on her shoulders.

Sean waved his hand upward and showed his ring: "I'm fine, Professor. Hermione is fine too, you know."

Professor McGonagall has actually known Professor Scamander for a long time, so Sean is not prepared to hide the existence of the ring from her.

Professor McGonagall saw Sean's ring at a glance. Obviously, she had known about it for a long time.

"That's good -" she breathed a sigh of relief, then became stern, "Mr. Wallop! You are too impulsive! In addition, I know you are very good at dealing with magical animals, but this is not the reason for you to abuse the teaching materials.

!”

The hippogriff that is the object of study is naturally the teaching material.

"Of course, Professor, I'm sorry." Sean apologized.

"Fortunately, nothing happened to you..." Professor McGonagall looked towards the border and controlled the broomstick to approach Sean, "Have you encountered a dementor?"

Sean nodded: "I met."

"Oh my God -" Professor McGonagall exclaimed, "How did you rescue Miss Granger? No, I mean, didn't those ugly things stick to you?"

Sean waved his wand, and silver light flashed on it.

"With good luck, Professor, I only encountered one Dementor." He decided to conceal the number.

Otherwise, it would be unreasonable for a third-year student who is not proficient in the Patronus Charm to be able to deal with more than a dozen dementors.

Only then did Professor McGonagall really relax. At this time, the two of them had already seen the shore.

Hagrid obviously took the other students back to the castle first, and there was no one on the shore.

The horse-shaped water monster rushed to the lake shore under Professor McGonagall's slightly strange gaze, and thoughtfully leaned down so that Sean could safely slide off its back.

"Thanks, man." Sean patted the horse-shaped water monster on the head affectionately, "Go back, just stay at the bottom of the lake for this time. I'll come see you when I have time."

The horse-shaped water monster neighed, bowed to Sean, then turned around and dived into the lake.

Professor McGonagall on the side got off the broom, with a look on his face that was about to speak but was hesitant.

In the end, she decided to give up discussing magical beasts with Sean.

Obviously, this child has gone much further than most wizards on the path of magical animals.

She approached Sean and said quite seriously: "Mr. Wallop, I must say that he ordered the animals in the Care of Magical Creatures class to fly with a student - this happened without the teacher's permission.

,This is a serious violation of school rules!"

Sean wanted to speak, but he couldn't help but stopped when he saw Professor McGonagall's serious expression.

Professor McGonagall used magic spells to dry his robes that were wetted by the lake water, while continuing to educate him: "In addition, facing the dementors without permission is also a very reckless behavior, although I can understand your anxiety. But, if

If the number of Dementors is not one, but two, three or more, your half-formed Patronus Charm alone cannot save you and Miss Granger. Because of two violations, Ravenclaw

The college lost twenty points because of you."

"Yes, Professor." Sean accepted the instruction honestly.

"However," Professor McGonagall changed her style, her face softened, and her eyes glowed with pride, "Your bravery and kindness are amazing. After understanding the terrifying nature of Dementors,

You still did not hesitate to save your friends. The glory of Hogwarts was accumulated by students like you one after another. Moreover, it is already very long for a third-year student to be able to barely cast the Patronus Charm.

It’s amazing.”

"Ravenclaw plus forty points."

Sean scratched his head in embarrassment. The process was completely different from what Professor McGonagall said...

"Thank you, Professor."

"You're welcome, Mr. Wallop," Professor McGonagall said as he took out two pieces of chocolate. "I think you should be feeling cold and in a bad mood now. Come on, eat this. It will be good for you."

benefit."

To be honest, because of your spell just now, my whole body feels warm...

Sean thanked him and took the chocolate.

Professor McGonagall looked at his ring: "Let Miss Granger come out, she should also need it."

"Um, Professor, Hermione is fine..." Sean tore the chocolate wrapper with his hand and said coquettishly.

Hermione must be fine. The key is, what if she accidentally lets it slip...

"Huh?" Professor McGonagall had doubts in her eyes.

It was a matter of students' safety, and Hermione would definitely not feel relieved unless she saw that she was indeed fine.

"Mr. Wallop?" she said with a little more emphasis.

"Okay, I'll call her out right now..." Sean sighed helplessly.

Hermione, we are best friends, we have a good understanding.

The entrance to the ring gradually enlarged, and when it was just big enough to fit a basketball, Sean immediately stuck his head in.

He deliberately shouted loudly: "Hermione, it's okay, Professor McGonagall is right next to you, come out."

Inside the ring, Hermione, who was panting heavily, immediately ran over. She looked up and saw Sean winking at her, and then Professor McGonagall also stretched her head over.

"Miss Granger, are you okay?"

"Oh, oh--Professor, I'm fine." Hermione replied while quietly waving her hands in the other direction.

Huh, luckily Hermione is smart enough... Sean let out a sigh of relief.

When Hermione climbed out of the ring, she immediately looked at Sean.

"Are you okay, Sean?"

"Professor McGonagall's spells and chocolate are great, of course I'm fine." Sean opened his hands to indicate that he was fine.

Hermione breathed a sigh of relief, and then Professor McGonagall handed over a piece of chocolate with a kind face.

"Don't be afraid, Miss Granger, come and eat this."

"Uh, okay, Professor, thank you." Hermione glanced at Sean secretly, she pressed down on her chest, which was still heaving rapidly, and took the chocolate.

After Professor McGonagall confirmed that the two of them were indeed safe, he quickly brought them back to the castle.

"You guys go to the auditorium. I'll go check on the situation. There will be a student meeting later, so don't be late." Professor McGonagall told the two of them at the entrance of the castle, and then hurried away.

As soon as Professor McGonagall walked away, Hermione grabbed Sean's hand and ran to the empty back of the door.

In the corner, the girl raised her eyebrows and said in a low but sharp voice: "Sean!"

"Uh, did you see it?" Sean smiled.

Hermione held her chest, her eyes widened with disbelief on her face.

"Are you crazy?! That's a basilisk, right? A basilisk!"

The situation was urgent, and Sean, who had no time to hesitate, sent Hermione directly into the ring without telling the basilisk to hide it in advance. Apparently, Hermione saw the ring and saw the basilisk that Sean had been hiding.

Sean laughed and tried to change the subject: "Let me see if you are injured..."

"I'm very good!" Hermione glared at him.

"Okay -" Sean licked his lips, and then said with a serious face, "Actually, it was a very huge cobra - is my explanation convincing?"

"Sean!"

"Okay, okay..." Sean looked around. There was no one here, and the students had already gathered in the auditorium.

"Slytherin, Salazar Slytherin, remember?" he whispered.

Hermione nodded, and then her eyes widened: "You said that you were trapped in a secret place in the castle when you disappeared last time. In fact, that was another secret room in Slytherin?!"

"Obviously, it's like this - please, Hermione, don't look at me like that. I didn't mean to hide it. Isn't this because I'm afraid you will worry?" Sean did a jumping jack at the girl who raised her eyebrows, "You

Look, I'm very good."

"Then, that basilisk?"

"That guy is different from other basilisks. His IQ is about five galls higher than Crabbe. You know, opening a private magical animal circle is one of my dreams." Sean spread his hands.

"So you abducted a basilisk?! And you put glasses on it?! No -" Hermione looked at him suspiciously again, "You need to have eye contact with magical animals..."

"Hiss, hiss..."

The hiss from Sean's mouth made Hermione open her mouth: "Parseltongue?! Sean, are you the descendant of Slytherin?!"

Sean licked his lips: "Obviously not, my family's genealogy is quite credible. Parseltongue is essentially a kind of language magic and can be learned."

Hermione seemed to be shocked by the series of news, and it took her a long time to calm down.

Finally, she glanced at Sean: "What does that Parseltongue saying mean?"

"You are very beautiful, but are you too eager to learn?"

"This is Parseltongue! By the way, can I learn it?"

"It should be possible. Do you want to learn? I'll teach you."
