Douglas used a spell to find Harry's bed and discovered that he was sleeping.

Then he quietly moved to the bed opposite him and used the bed sheet to turn it into a chair for himself.

He sat down quietly, and thanks to the effect of the Disillusionment Charm, no one could notice that there was someone sitting there.

Soon, in the quiet ward, Douglas heard the sound of flames exploding.

The person you have been waiting for has finally arrived.

Douglas, who had adapted to the darkness, discovered that the house-elf Dobby, who had sneaked in, was holding something and carefully wiping Harry's forehead, sobbing softly.

Douglas curled his lips in the dark. This scene was too easy to be misunderstood.

Harry was soon awakened by Dobby's movements.

"Dobby! Why are you here?"

Dobby whispered with a sad tone:

"Harry Potter returned to school, and Dobby reminded Harry Potter again and again.

But, sir, why didn't you listen to Dobby's warning? Why didn't you go home if you missed the train?

"How did you know I missed the train?" Harry asked in surprise.

Suddenly, a red light flew from the bed next to Harry's and hit Dobby directly, and then Dobby fell to the ground with a thud.

Harry fought back the pain in his arm.

Draw your wand.

But a familiar voice came from the darkness:

"Because that's what he does, including today's Bludger."

Harry cast a glowing spell and looked at Douglas in surprise:

"Professor Holmes, what brings you here?

How is this going? "

Douglas smiled faintly and said to Harry, "Wait a moment."

Then, in Harry's blank eyes, Douglas used the Binding Charm to tie Dobby up tightly (normal binding method).

And tie the other end of the rope to your hand.

This was to prevent the other party from escaping by using Apparition. After all, Douglas did not understand the magic of house-elves, so he could only use this very primitive method to guard against the other party.

If he dared to Apparate, he would be taken directly to Malfoy Manor along with Douglas, which would be interesting.

After seeing Douglas finished his work, Harry asked:

"Professor, what's going on? Do you know Dobby?"

Douglas pulled the chair he had just transformed into next to Harry's bed.

Then a soundproofing spell was set up in this small area to prevent the noise from disturbing Madam Pomfrey.

The school infirmary is her territory, and she has to obey even if Dumbledore comes.

Not to mention that Douglas once used his spare time to help in the school clinic in order to learn some healing magic.

After hearing Harry's question, Douglas shook his head and looked at Harry with disgust:

"Harry, I didn't expect that your memory is worse than mine at your young age. Didn't you, Dobby, tell me that?

Of course, this is not the point. I noticed the abnormality of the Bludger today and suspected that someone was secretly trying to hurt you.

But I didn't see anything on the court at that time.

According to the theory that murderers usually return to the scene of the crime...

Oh, it doesn't matter if you haven't heard of it, it doesn't matter.

Anyway, I guess he must have come to see your injured state, so he quietly hid beside you to protect you. Harry glanced at Dobby angrily, remembering the pain of having his bones pulled out and the pain of having them grow back.

"Professor, are you saying that he controlled the Bludger and pulled out a small piece of my bone?"

Douglas felt a little embarrassed. If he hadn't been worried that Harry's injuries were not serious enough, he would have quietly removed a piece of broken bone from his body while slowing him down.

Who can understand how difficult it is to finally catch up with the original plot and find an opportunity to participate in it after more than 20 years.

That's why he was reluctant to spoil the plot. What if Harry was cured by Madam Pomfrey in a second? He couldn't just lurk in the Gryffindor common room and wait there.

If I miss this opportunity, I don’t know when I will be able to meet Dobby again.

Hearing the anger in Harry's mouth, Douglas coughed lightly:

"Aha, maybe he has his own reasons.

Didn't you say he was always worried that you would be in danger at school?

Just now when you fell asleep, he carefully wiped your forehead. Let’s not talk about these unpleasant things.

What you need to know now is why he treated you this way."

Harry felt that Douglas had some point, and nodded in agreement.

Douglas snapped his fingers.

Dobby immediately woke up from his coma and soon found himself tied up.

Douglas took advantage of the other party not running away and said quickly:

“If you dare to Apparate, you will bring me directly to your master.

I don't think you dare let your master see you like this.

Mr. Dobby!"

He stared at Douglas with his tennis ball-sized eyes, followed the other end of the rope that trapped him, and shouted in horror:

"It's you, the Muggle professor... you actually called me Mr., the professor actually called me Mr., obviously..."

Douglas sneered, "I'm afraid your master's original words were Professor Mudblood!"

Dobby was too frightened to speak. He looked at Douglas and then at Harry Potter.

Harry asked quietly, "Professor, do you know whose house-elf he is?"

Douglas did not answer Harry's question directly, but said to him:

"You can ask him questions now."

Harry saw that Douglas had no interest in talking about this matter, so he tactfully stopped asking.

He stared at Dobby and asked unhappily:

"Did you do that thing with the Bludger at the train station?"

Dobby's tears couldn't stop flowing from behind his bulging glasses, but because his hands were tied, he had no way to wipe them away.

"Harry Potter must go home!

It's dangerous, too dangerous, Hogwarts will be in danger!"

Harry demanded angrily:

"Danger? All the dangers I'm facing at school right now are caused by you. As long as you don't come, I think Hogwarts will be very safe!"

Dobby groaned, more tears rolling down onto his tattered pillowcase and the rope Douglas had conjured.

"Harry Potter has no idea what he means to us humble, enslaved people in the wizarding world! Dobby has not forgotten what He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named was like at the height of his power..."

At this moment, Douglas suddenly spoke, startling Dobby who was immersed in his own emotions.

"Mr. Dobby, do you really not believe in the abilities of the Hogwarts professors?

I can probably guess what you are going to say, it's nothing more than that the secret room will be opened..."

Dobby stared with his eyes wide open, snot running down his nose unconsciously.

Harry asked curiously:

"Dobby, is this true?

Professor, what is a Chamber of Secrets?

Douglas shook his head:

"Don't worry about that. The entrance to the Chamber of Secrets has been sealed by the professors of Hogwarts, and I have also taken down the man who was going to open it.

In other words, Dobby, your master's plan has been completely ruined by me.

So, you really don't have to worry about Harry's safety at Hogwarts.

Harry, it seems you've already figured it out. Just keep it to yourself.

Don’t forget that it was only recently that you wrote your report…”

Dobby couldn't move his body, but the fear in his eyes was self-evident.

He didn't understand why the person in front of him knew so much.

Does this count as leaking secrets? Should I punish myself?

"How...how do you know what the master is talking about..."

Douglas shrugged.

“It doesn’t matter.

Mr. Dobby, I hope this is the last time you enter Hogwarts illegally.

Of course if one day you can come with your master, that is certainly allowed.

The rest of the time will be for you to have a good chat with Harry. I know you are not a bad house-elf."

With that, Douglas touched the spell on Dobby.

Dobby stupidly got up from the ground.

Harry also glanced blankly at Douglas.

Then Douglas said only one sentence:

"No matter what you talk about tonight, don't say anything that shouldn't be said, understand?"

Then he turned around and slowly disappeared into the darkness.

The two nodded subconsciously.

Then Dobby said:

"The gentleman said he averted danger and saved Harry?"

Harry nodded.

“Yes, Professor Holmes is a very powerful man.

When Voldemort came to the school to cause damage, he was defeated by the professor."

Harry never mentioned his suspicion that Douglas was possessed by Voldemort again at this time.

Because he felt that Voldemort would not be like Professor Holmes, who would impose endless punishments on students' studies.

Dobby trembled when he heard Voldemort's name.

Then he shook his head vigorously, his two bat-like ears trembling:

"No, the one who defeated He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named was Harry Potter, Harry Potter.

Although the gentleman was a good man, he called me Mr. Dobby...

Like Harry Potter, they are all good people..."

Chapter 117: Fight the Snow Monster and Share the Rewards

Although the weather is getting colder in November, it cannot stop the passage of time.

Douglas announced in class that the November monthly exam would be cancelled.

But before everyone could be happy, Douglas announced that the final exams for the first semester would be held in the second week of December.

There was wailing in every grade.
