Chapter 2336 Choice



After that, Dumbledore hurried over and took Harry, Ron and Ellie to the headmaster's office - as for Malfoy who was frightened unconscious, he was naturally sent to the infirmary.

"Ms. Ellie, you are really scaring those children by doing this."

To Ron and Harry's surprise, after closing the door, Dumbledore complained to Ellie first. However, Ellie's reaction surprised them even more.

"I am only punishing him as he deserves, Mr. Dumbledore."

In response to Dumbledore's complaints, Ellie raised her head and stared at him.

"I hope that you, your teachers at school, and the entire British wizarding community will not forget that they are first British citizens - subjects of Her Majesty the Queen, and then wizards... Do you agree with this?"

"Of course I agree, Miss Ellie."

Dumbledore was silent for a moment, then nodded, and Ellie stopped talking and stood aside. Harry and Ron stood there without saying a word, not daring to breathe. They looked at each other and saw the fear in each other's eyes. Although the two were not very old, they were both children, but they could also feel the tense atmosphere between Dumbledore and Ellie.

Although there were conflicts between Snape and Dumbledore on weekdays, especially on the issue of how to punish Harry, both of them could see that Dumbledore, as the headmaster, had great authority in front of Snape. However, the situation just now was completely different. Logically speaking, Ellie was only a teacher of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, and she had no right to confront Dumbledore. But the fact was that in the face of Ellie's words, Dumbledore chose to retreat...

What is Teacher Ai Li’s identity?

"Okay, both of you, now let's talk about your problems. Why were you there at that time?"

"this……"

Hearing Dumbledore's question, Ron instinctively looked at Harry, and Harry was silent for a moment under the gaze of everyone before he spoke.

"I, I just suddenly want to go back and rest..."

"……All right."

Dumbledore looked at Harry and after a moment he let out a long sigh.

"You can go now."

After hearing what Dumbledore said, the two immediately turned around and left as if they had been pardoned, while Ellie just watched the scene and also said nothing. Of course, she could see that Dumbledore could find out that the two were lying, but what did it have to do with her? Anyway, so far, these were just trivial matters.

But... this time it's a big snake...

Thinking of this, Ellie frowned. She remembered that in the novel, the Chamber of Secrets incident happened when Harry and Ron were in their second year and Ron's sister Ginny entered Hogwarts. And it was Ginny who was manipulated to open the Chamber of Secrets and summon the snake, but now the two are still in their first year, so where is Voldemort's Horcrux diary?

Dumbledore was in trouble.

Thinking of this, Ellie glanced at Dumbledore again. Dumbledore would be dismissed, but no one dared to move her position. The reason was simple. No matter how great Dumbledore was, he was just a wizard in the magic world. In the civilized world, he was just an old man in funny clothes.

But her identity is different. Standing behind her is not only herself, but also those "Muggles" who are eyeing her covetously and trying to seize any opportunity to destroy and conquer the magical world.

Hogwarts is very powerful, but Ellie believes that Dumbledore would not want to use this school to test the power of a series of weapons such as mortars, anti-aircraft guns, missiles, bombs, bombers, tanks, etc.

The Malfoy family and the other eleven directors would not want to be checked by Muggles.

But Ellie really wanted to see that scene.

Fully armed soldiers appeared in Diagon Alley, pointing their guns at the trembling wizards, making them look livid and stand in a row on the street corner, trembling all over... Well, this scene was definitely a pretty good sight for Ellie.

It turns out that the plot progresses faster than Ellie imagined.

The next day, students found two more petrified victims, one of whom was a Hufflepuff student, and the other was the ghost Nearly Headless Nick. Harry Potter "happened" to appear at the scene. Although different from the original book, Harry Potter did not show his ability to talk to snakes in public, and others did not know that he was a Parseltongue, but Harry was still under a lot of pressure.

So the next scene happened.

"I, I don't know what's going on, Professor Snape...!"

Holding Snape's black robes tightly, Harry looked up and looked at Snape with tears in his eyes.

"They said that I attacked those people and turned them into stone... I didn't do that! Professor! In fact, I can tell you that I heard a voice, a ghost-like voice. I don't know who made this voice, but I heard it more than once. However, when I followed the voice to find it, I found that... I... I really wasn't..."

"I believe you, Harry."

Snape whispered while gently stroking Harry's back, while Ellie, who was sitting on a broom outside the window, turned pale.

What is going on?

In the original book, didn't Harry dare to tell anyone about these things? In addition to Ron and Hermione, he even kept it a secret from Dumbledore. But now, he would rather confess to Snape than to Dumbledore? Does this mean that Harry now trusts Snape more than Dumbledore?

By the way, Snape, the look in your eyes right now is very dangerous. I tell you, it is a crime for anyone, regardless of whether they are men or women, under the age of fourteen.

Fortunately, both of them stopped at the right time. Ellie did not see Snape taking off Harry's robe and hugging him tightly in his arms, nor did she see Harry hugging Snape tightly and giving him his first kiss. Finally, it was with Snape's comfort that Harry left the Potions Room wiping his tears.

What is the relationship between these two people?

Ellie didn't understand either.

Forget it, it has nothing to do with her anyway.

Starting from the next day, the atmosphere in the school became more tense.

Hermione has already booked a ticket home, and she decided to leave Hogwarts temporarily and see what happens. Many students are also uneasy, and the two petrified people (or one person and a ghost) have not recovered. Although Ellie can do this, considering that she will reveal the true identity of the mysterious person holding the diary, she plans to wait and see for the time being.

As for Harry, he became active uncharacteristically. Perhaps he was eager to get rid of the blame that was put on his head. He began to look for clues everywhere, and Ellie also stared at him curiously, wanting to see how things would develop this time.

Perhaps it was the influence of the will of the universe, or perhaps it was "plot requirements". Although Harry was not able to obtain Voldemort's diary Horcrux as in the original book, he still thought, "Since this was most likely done by some kind of animal, it would be clearer to ask Hagrid." So, like Ron, he visited the giant Hagrid on a moonlit night.

The following development is not much different from the original novel. When the two asked Hagrid about the situation, Dumbledore came with the Minister of Magic Fudge, who arrested Hagrid on the grounds that he was suspected of a series of harmful incidents and sent him to the wizard prison Azkaban for investigation. At the same time, Lucius Malfoy also brought a handwritten letter from the board of directors, dismissing Dumbledore from his position as headmaster. Before leaving, Hagrid made his last effort to remind Harry and Ron, who were hiding in the invisibility cloak, to go to the Forbidden Forest to find spiders...

So is it true that Hagrid is not an undercover Death Eater?

Watching Harry and Ron stumbling towards the Forbidden Forest with Hagrid's big dog, Ellie, who was sitting on a broom floating in the sky, couldn't help but think about this question seriously again. Hagrid had almost killed Harry more than once, and this was the closest he had ever been to success. And who knows... maybe he would really succeed this time.

After all, in the original book, it was the magic car that they drove to the campus at the beginning of the second part that saved Harry and Ron. Now, that magic flying car is still parked well in the Weasley family. Maybe this time Harry and Ron will really be buried in the spider's belly... Well, maybe this is not a bad thing?

Ellie stroked her chin and narrowed her eyes. She never liked Hagrid. Hagrid gave people the feeling that he was just like those dog slaves. He would often say, "Look, my dog ​​is so cute, it won't bite you." So he would leave it alone. Once the dog bites someone, it's not the dog's fault. You provoked my cute little dog, so it's still your fault.

Ellie had never liked this stupid, big guy.

Next, Harry and Ron followed the spiders to their nest as Hagrid reminded, where they learned the truth from the big spider - fifty years ago, someone released some kind of monster from the Chamber of Secrets (the spider refused to say what it was), but that person was not Hagrid, and it didn't know who that person was.

Then the conversation ended and all that was left was a feast.

So what should we do now?

Looking at Harry and Ron, who were standing back to back, holding their wands, desperately facing the siege of hundreds of spiders the size of carriages, Ellie began to think.

Was it to show Hagrid the bodies of Harry and Ron in the belly of his trusted spider?

Or let Hagrid see the corpse of the spider he trusted and loved?

In the end, Ai Li chose the latter...

After all, with a dog slave like Hagrid, even if he saw the bodies of Harry and Ron, Ellie was sure that he would cry and shout, "Oh, poor Harry, poor Ron, I forgot to tell them that they shouldn't provoke that giant spider. They must have done something to the giant spider to anger him..."

So, the best way to anger a dog slave and teach him a memorable lesson is to throw the body of his favorite dog in front of him.

Thinking of this, Ellie made a decision, then she took out her wand and pointed it downwards.

The next moment, the flames swirled and turned into a tornado that shot out from the wand, falling from the sky and engulfing the entire pit.
