"Those guys on the board of directors are way more greedy for money than you think."
Richard patted his pocket and winked at Shen Yulou.
Shen Yulou then heard the sound of gold gallons colliding.
He turned his gaze to Neville.
In that case...
"If the teachers ask you, just tell them the truth, okay?"
Neville nodded, then looked timidly at Shen Yulou.
"But what if they don't believe me?"
"No buts, besides, the idea of dipping the mop in poop was mine."
"If anyone is to be held accountable, it's more my responsibility."
"Take me to the place where Draco bullied you, and I'll help you find the evidence."
"Don't worry, you'll be fine."
Shen Yulou put his arm around Neville's shoulder and turned to signal Richard to go to the school clinic as well.
Richard gave an "OK" sign and led the child to the school clinic.
In the school clinic
The teachers were all gathered around Draco's bed, and a group of students were also peeking in from outside the door.
After Mrs. Pomfrey's diagnosis, it was concluded that Draco had fainted simply because he was too frightened, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Minerva tiptoed and whispered in Dumbledore's ear.
Dumbledore gave Draco a complicated look, then nodded.
"Do not gather here."
Minerva, looking serious, dispersed the students as she reached the door, then went to inform Draco's parents.
Such a big thing, Hogwarts will definitely tell Lucius and Narcissa.
If Draco were to say it, it would be a dereliction of duty on Hogwarts' part.
Minerva had a headache thinking about Lucius's potential performance on the Board of Governors and at the Ministry of Magic.
Hopefully, Dumbledore can handle it.
After a while, Draco finally woke up, but he kept his head covered by the blanket and refused to show it.
Minerva came back in at this moment, her gaze shifting from Draco, who was covered by the blanket on the bed, to Dumbledore.
"Narcissa and Lucius will be here soon."
Hearing Minerva's whisper, Dumbledore nodded and patted Snape on the back.
"Hurry up, hurry up!"
The three little ones, who had just circled around the pillar behind them and were leaning against the door with their heads stacked on top of each other, hadn't even seen anything before they were caught.
They even tried to turn around and run away.
"stop."
Upon hearing Minerva's voice, the three children turned around at the same time, their eyes showing the same guilty conscience.
I originally thought that Minerva and Snape would punish them, like deducting five points from Gryffindor.
But what Minerva said next made them widen their eyes.
"While we're away, you can go keep Draco company as punishment for your disobedience."
"us?"
Ron pointed incredulously at himself, then turned to look at Harry and Hermione.
Should we send them to keep Draco company?
What good things could they possibly say?
It's already a favor that they didn't take advantage of Draco's illness to kill him, what more do you want in return?
"What kind of punishment is it if it's something easy to do?"
Minerva walked over to them.
"Watch your words. You don't need to say too much to Draco. Just keep an eye on him for us."
The three little ones suddenly realized that they were monitoring Draco; they understood.
Seeing the three little ones nodding like obedient children, Minerva was satisfied.
"Do a good job and don't cause any trouble, or Gryffindor will lose fifteen points."
When Snape walked up to them, he didn't even stop, but he still left the three little ones speechless.
"That pesky big bat!"
Ron was so angry that he stomped his feet. When Hermione dragged him into the infirmary, he was still spitting at Snape's back indignant anger.
...
"I hope you can give me an explanation."
Upon receiving the news, Lucius and Narcissa rushed to Hogwarts.
The coat flying upwards foreshadowed Lucius's anger at that moment.
"Albus, this is absolutely outrageous."
