Harry Potter: This senior is pretty strong

The Halloween Eve dinner was incredibly lavish.

Various roasted meats, delicious soups, fragrant breads, and a variety of vegetables and fruits were laid out on the long dining tables of the four colleges, and everyone sat on both sides of the tables, each with plenty of food in front of them.

Food, something that can evoke humanity's most primal desires, captivated everyone with its sight and smell, making the dinner atmosphere very lively.

Several first-year students were discussing the morning's Charms class. They mentioned that few Slytherin students had successfully cast new Charms. Even Malfoy only managed to cast one after Hermione and Adam, which severely limited Malfoy's chances of showing off.

Adam, one of the parties involved, was not present. I heard he didn't show up all afternoon, probably because he went to find a place to sleep again.

Qin Yu wasn't particularly interested in the kids' bickering; only they themselves seemed to care.

While everyone was talking at once, Qin Yu looked at the professors' location again, but still couldn't see Professor Quirrell.

Clearly, that guy is going to do something according to the "original plan" today.

All I can do is protect Hermione and prevent any accidents from happening to her.

He also considered whether he should stop Professor Quirrell in advance.

However, upon further reflection, due to the inexplicable limitations of the system, he couldn't possibly take down that guy in a short time, and it would easily alert him, causing things to deviate from their expected course.

Rather than facing the unknown, it's better to let things proceed on a roughly predetermined track—as long as you can protect those around you from danger.

At least, he knew that Dumbledore, Snape, and the others were not to be trifled with.

Everything is under control.

With that thought in mind, Qin Yu stopped worrying and began to wolf down his food.

"Qin, why are you eating so fast today?" Hermione asked, somewhat puzzled, as she ate a small sausage.

"You'd better eat quickly, or you might not get any later," Qin Yu said vaguely.

"???" Hermione looked puzzled.

The others were also puzzled. After all, there was so much food on the table today that they couldn't possibly finish it all. How could they not have any later?

Qin Yu was too lazy to say anything more. He put food on Hermione's plate and urged her to eat faster.

"Okay, okay, I'll eat it~" Hermione smiled and ate heartily as he instructed.

She felt that Qin was probably acting strangely again today, after all, he often had some odd ideas.

Yes, just cooperate.

His uncle spoils him so much.

So, in the entire Great Hall, the two of them ate the fastest, even surpassing Slytherin's big eaters, Goyle and Crabbe—the latter two hadn't eaten their fill yet because they were having some trouble making choices today.

However, even though Qin Yu sped up his eating, he was still interrupted by a sudden crashing sound before he could finish.

With a dull thud, the auditorium doors were violently kicked open.

A figure wrapped in a thick headscarf stumbled in and ran straight to where the professors were.

It was Professor Quirrell, who hadn't shown up until now.

“Dumbledore, Professor… there’s a troll!” Professor Quirrell said in fear and panic.

"Don't rush, tell me specifically, where did you see it?" Dumbledore asked in a calm tone.

"In, in the basement... the troll seems to have gone mad..." Professor Quirrell said, still shaken.

Seeing this, Qin Yu helplessly wiped his hands and mouth and stopped eating.

Sure enough, after Professor Dumbledore found out the reason, he stood up and said to everyone in the Great Hall, "Please stop eating for now and follow your prefects back to your dormitories!"

Trolls are highly destructive magical creatures, and their intrusion into the campus would pose a great danger to young wizards who are still in the learning stage. Evacuating them to the dormitories of the various colleges is a safer option.

Moreover, some timid children showed blank and fearful expressions, and even let out a sharp scream, which made the whole auditorium seem a bit chaotic.

So, led by their respective college deans, everyone began to leave the auditorium in a somewhat flustered manner.

At this moment, Harry and the others couldn't help but look at Qin Yu, wondering if he had learned some kind of divination from Professor Trelawney, the Divination teacher, otherwise how would he know that they would not be able to eat this dinner?

……

"Qin, come and help me take the first and second year students back to the Gryffindor Tower. Have them gather in the common area and not wander off!" Gryffindor prefect Percy Weasley approached Qin Yu and asked for his help.

Given Qin Yu's reputation and prestige in Gryffindor, the first and second-year students were quite willing to listen to him, which was why Percy asked him to help evacuate the students.

Qin Yu responded and went to greet the Gryffindor students from those two grades.

However, things were a bit chaotic. Some of the younger Hufflepuff students were rushing in and crashing into the Gryffindor crowd, while someone from the Slytherin side was shouting something, and a number of Ravenclaws were blocking the entrance.

The class leaders quickly shouted to maintain order.

When Qin Yu gathered the first and second-year Gryffindor students together, Hermione said anxiously, "Qin, Harry and Ron are missing!"

"Ok?"

Qin Yu frowned in confusion.

Why are those two kids disappearing at this crucial moment?

“I think I heard them talking about going to find Adam. There was a bit of confusion just now, and before I knew it, they were gone,” Hermione continued.

These two are so kind-hearted, it's truly beyond words.

"Alright, I'll take you back to the public rest area first, and I'll go find them later." Qin Yu didn't hesitate much.

He led the first and second-year students on a brisk walk toward the Gryffindor Tower, asking several first-year students about Adam along the way. He then easily learned from Neville that Adam often went to a storage room to slack off and sleep.

The storage room was right next to the women's restroom on the first floor.

The first floor is the closest place to the basement, and the giant monster may have come from the basement to the first floor.

……

"Pig nose!"

After chanting a spell at the statue of the fat lady, the doorway opened, and Qin Yu led everyone inside, arranging for them to rest in the public area.

After doing all that, he explained the situation to Percy Weasley, the prefect who arrived later.

Although Percy Weasley is Ron's older brother, as a prefect, he has the responsibility of maintaining order and cannot leave easily. So he can only ask Qin Yu to help him find his troublesome younger brother.

Then, Qin Yu left the dormitory area and went back to the first floor of the main castle.

However, Hermione caught up with him not far away, stubbornly insisting on fighting alongside Qin Yu.

Seeing the girl's serious expression, Qin Yu couldn't help but smile. He took her hand and they jogged towards their destination.
