Marvel: I, Hermione, am from Hogwarts!

Filch grabbed Harry by the collar and roared in grief and anger.

"I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you!"

Just before morning classes, the commotion in the corridor quickly attracted the attention of nearby students, and a crowd gathered.

"what happened?"

"Isn't that Filch's cat? Why is it hanging here? It looks like Harry Potter made it?"

“Filch loves his cat the most, this is going to be interesting.”

"Look, there are still words written in blood on the wall. The secret room has been opened... What does that mean?"

Seeing this scene, Malfoy, with his deep-rooted family background in wizardry, immediately understood what was going on. He perked up on the spot, looked at the several wizards from nearby Muggle families, and casually uttered a vulgar remark:

"Next up are you, Mudbloods."

Just as he finished speaking and was feeling smug, he suddenly saw Hermione yawning leisurely not far away, and his eyes widened abruptly.

Finished!

Little Horse's legs trembled so much that he almost lost his footing, but fortunately Crabbe and Goyle were quick to catch him.

My life is over!

In that instant, he wanted to slap his past self from ten seconds ago.

Make you talk bad!

However, after waiting for a long time, Hermione still didn't react, which made Malfoy start to have doubts.

Perhaps... she didn't hear it?

Thank goodness, we escaped unscathed!

I will definitely turn over a new leaf and start a new life!

Woo woo woo.

I was almost scared to death.

Fortunately, the terrifying witch didn't hear him, otherwise he might have ended up like Mrs. Loris tonight, his body hanging upside down from the lamp.

While Malfoy was engaged in a fierce internal struggle, on the other side, the conflict between Harry and Filch was also gradually intensifying.

On one hand, they insisted it wasn't him, while on the other hand, they were convinced it was him.

Seeing Harry speechless, Hermione chuckled to herself.

So eager to play Sherlock Holmes, even protecting the scene—something's probably going to go wrong.

Don't you know that the first person to discover a crime scene is always the first suspect?

Seeing that Harry was still being stubborn, Filch was furious. Just as he was about to unleash his Squib Killer Punch, the professors finally arrived.

"Argus, stop!"

Dumbledore stopped Filch and then looked at the words in blood.

The next moment, both he and the other professors were startled, and their expressions became extremely grave.

Only the comedian Lockhart looked left and right, still not understanding what was going on.

Dumbledore, regaining his senses, looked at Filch.

"Argus, we can't be sure who the murderer is yet, so please be patient."

Dumbledore's words carried considerable weight, and Filch reluctantly released Harry.

"Hey, isn't it just about finding the murderer?"

Hermione's voice suddenly rang out.

"I knew!"

Chapter 78 Petrification Removal

Everyone turned to look at Hermione, who was speaking.

"What? You know that!"

Filch quickly stepped forward and looked at Hermione.

"Tell me, is it him?!"

He pointed at Harry.

“Sigh,” Hermione waved her hand, “The murderer is obvious. Didn’t any of you hear what was going on?”

"who is it?"

Seeing Hermione's confident assertion, everyone fell silent and stared at her, even Dumbledore looked somewhat surprised.

In the silence, for some reason, Malfoy suddenly felt uneasy.

“I remember someone saying something like ‘You’re next,’ right?” Hermione said calmly. “Who sees a murder scene and says that as their first words? It’s obvious the killer just killed the first one and is making a declaration for the next murder.”

Everyone turned to look at Malfoy.

The guy's vision went black.

"Alright, the murderer accidentally exploded, we can close the case now." Hermione clapped her hands and said, "Professors, please call the Aurors to arrest the murderer."

As he spoke, he walked over to Filch and patted him on the shoulder:

"You're welcome. Please call me Detective Granger."

What to do? It actually makes a lot of sense... Everyone thought to themselves.

"me……"

Seeing the suspicious looks around him, the arrogant guy was almost in tears. "It really wasn't me!"

Although he hoped to be Salazar Slytherin's successor, this was definitely not the way he should be!

He didn't know who the murderer was, but at that moment, there was one thing he was certain of.

That witch definitely heard what he just said!

Malfoy slapped himself twice.

Why is your mouth so foul?!

"Stop this, stop this!" Crabbe and Gore quickly pulled him back when they saw that he was about to continue hitting him.

Hermione was also somewhat surprised.

Why did they suddenly switch to medium, large, and extra-large sizes?

"puff……"

Many people couldn't help but laugh when they saw Malfoy like this for the first time.

Harry: Happy.

Ron: Happy.

Lockhart: Joy.

Malfoy: Not happy.

Ginny: ...!

Luna: ...?

Dumbledore: ...

Seeing Hermione's amused expression, Dumbledore couldn't help but cover his face, and after a long while, he finally said:

"Alright, Miss Granger, stop joking. Prefects, take the students back to their dormitories."

“Mr. Potter, Mr. Weasley, Miss Granger, please stay.”

After everyone left, Dumbledore looked at Filch and said, "Mrs. Norris is not dead, she has only been petrified, and she can still be saved."

Filch looked delighted and was about to speak when Lockhart suddenly interrupted:

"Yes, yes, I knew it! I happen to know the way to break the curse and save her, but unfortunately I wasn't there at the time."

Dumbledore: ...

Mag: ...

Hermione: ...

Feeling the strange looks the three were giving him, Lockhart felt a little guilty and gave a dry laugh, his eyes darting around nervously.

Only Filch took it seriously and quickly said:

"Professor Lockhart, I knew you had this ability. Please, please save Mrs. Lawrence quickly!"

“Uh…” Lockhart froze on the spot, even more completely than a cat.

Dude, think before you lie! How can you tell a lie that's so obvious it'll fall apart in a second? Hermione shook her head helplessly and stepped forward.

"I'll do it."
