Crabbe and Malfoy
Chapter 259 Crabbe and Malfoy
The sound of hurried footsteps echoed in the corridor, and the portraits on both sides would sometimes open their eyes and shout loudly:
"Hey, kids, what are you doing today? Why don't I see many people?"
Wade didn't bother to pay attention to him and walked past with big strides. His black wizard robe was blown up by the wind, and he almost had a bit of Professor Snape's temperament.
Behind him, the wizard in the portrait said angrily: "How rude!"
Wade walked to the door of the school infirmary, turned his head and looked over. McGee, who had brought him here, nodded and disappeared from sight with a "bang".
Then, Wade pushed open the door, and a man standing at the door immediately raised his head and looked over in panic.
It turned out to be Malfoy.
He shuddered as if he had seen a ghost, his face turned pale and his body trembled unconsciously.
There were also Slytherin students standing not far away, and there seemed to be an invisible barrier between them and Malfoy.
Those people were the Slytherin students who often hung out with Malfoy and were participating in the competition with him this time.
Pansy, Zabini, and Nott.
Including Crabbe, Daphne and Malfoy, that was everyone on their team.
As for Gore, because his IQ was too touching, he could only stay outside as a spectator this time and did not appear here at the moment.
Then Wade noticed that several professors, including Dumbledore and Snape, were gathered in front of a bed, with a dozen bottles of potions on a trolley nearby.
"This is the only way we can handle it for now..."
Madam Pomfrey whispered, "We must get him to St. Mungo's."
Dumbledore nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Pomona, Filius."
"You are very kind, Dumbledore. This is not much trouble at all."
Professor Sprout wiped his tears and said sympathetically, "Poor child."
Professor Flitwick carefully used magic to levitate the person on the bed, while Professor Sprout wrapped most of the person's body with a sheet.
As they passed the door, Vader noticed that the man wrapped in the sheets was Crabbe.
He closed his eyes tightly and his face was pale, but a strong smell of blood and even fluctuations of black magic came from his body.
Malfoy's body trembled violently, and he took two steps back abruptly, not daring to look at Crabbe's appearance.
The door was opened and closed.
Then, Professor Snape walked towards them.
He was usually extremely cold and stern, and at this moment he seemed even more terrifying.
Malfoy, who was usually favored by the professor, was terrified and looked like he was about to faint.
Professor Snape stopped in front of Pansy and others.
"Get back!"
His voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, and he said in a suppressed and low voice:
"If I hear any rumors--"
Several Slytherins shook their heads like rattles, and with Zabini in the lead, they quickly fled from the professor's sight.
Only Malfoy remained, staring at the floor in front of him, looking absolutely hopeless.
"Vade."
Professor Dumbledore came over and said calmly:
"I remember you said before that the stream mirror can basically capture every corner of the maze?"
"Yes." Vader said affirmatively, taking his eyes off Malfoy.
"Can the recorded images be replayed in a short period of time?" Dumbledore asked again.
"That's right," said Wade.
"Then we may need a small part of it," said Dumbledore. "About ten minutes ago."
"I can ask Mr. Colliver for it." Wade looked at the school infirmary and asked, "Uh...is it here?"
Although the ward is empty now, it is foreseeable that it will be filled with students in ten minutes.
There were quite a few students who were injured during the competition, but they wanted to see the results, so they endured it without immediate treatment and stayed in the audience.
Dumbledore said wearily, "Go to my office. Severus -"
He turned to look at Professor Snape.
"I think you need to get Mr. Malfoy and Mr. Crabbe."
What he was referring to was naturally the fathers of the two people.
Snape nodded with a grim expression, said nothing more, and even turned and left without looking at Draco Malfoy again.
"Wade, I'll leave the recorded footage to you." Dumbledore said, "The fifth floor of the maze, northwest corner, about ten minutes ago."
"Okay." Wade nodded and left quickly.
As he walked out of the castle, Vader saw the students returning.
They were unaware of the accident and were excitedly discussing the progress of the game, bursting into laughter from time to time.
Even the wounded were reluctant to miss this excitement. Those who could walk forced themselves to walk and even took the initiative to show their wounds to others.
A student picked up a huge scale and held it above his head like a medal, surrounded by a circle of young wizards from the lower grades.
The Gryffindor students carried Harry, singing and dancing, looking extremely happy. Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff also celebrated, and even Slytherin was not in a bad mood.
Although Snake Academy did not win the championship, it won the second place.
The officials from the Ministry of Magic stayed behind. They did not return to the castle immediately, but walked into the maze to observe the layout inside. Fudge asked questions frequently and seemed very concerned.
When the headmaster disappeared, Professor McGonagall, as the vice-headmaster, had to take on the task of receiving these people, although her expression was as serious as ever, with a hint of annoyance.
The magical creatures had no idea that these were government officials and might attack them unexpectedly, so Hagrid and the others stayed by their side.
Only Mr. Weasley stayed behind to comfort the dejected Percy.
Wade successfully found Mr. Colliver of the magic workshop. Before he even got close, he heard his excited voice:
"Where have you been, Mr. Gray? Never mind. Do you know what the streaming mirror feed is? All the sub-mirrors in the British Isles can see the picture! This is simply—"
"Mr. Colliver," Wade interrupted him and whispered, "I need to take a mother mirror with me."
Although the "central console" in Colliver's hand can broadcast, the images are still saved in their respective mother mirrors.
Colliver was stunned for a moment, then seemed to understand something, and without asking any more questions, he nodded and said, "Okay - which side do you need?"
Ten minutes later, Wade entered the principal's office with a mirror.
After entering, he saw the Malfoys sitting with Draco, looking as pale as ever. Lucius Malfoy was stroking the huge jewel on his cane and remained silent.
On the other side of the office, Crabbe's father sat with his head down.
It was the first time that Wade had seen him, but the power of genes was strong. Just by looking at his appearance, he knew the other person's identity.
Professor Snape stood aside with his arms folded, his eyes very cold.
Hearing the sound of the door, everyone in the office looked over.
