Chapter 24 The Second Attack

Madam Pomfrey glared at him.

"I'm happy that you came to the campus hospital, but I'm very unhappy that you didn't come to me directly!"

She held up the poor, lifeless thing, which was as soft as Harry's other half-developed arm.

"I can reattach the bones in a second—but to make them grow back—"

"Never again?" Cyrus asked. "It can't be hard again? I mean - bones."

"What else could it be?" Ron didn't quite understand.

"Of course I will let it grow out, but it will be very painful. He will have to spend the night here." Madam Pomfrey said with a straight face, throwing Harry a set of pajamas and giving Cyrus a hard look. You little girl, what are you thinking in your head..."

The curtains around Harry's bed were closed, Ron helped him change into his pajamas, and Hermione and Cyrus were waiting outside. Ron struggled to get the rubbery, boneless arm into the sleeve.

"How can you protect Lockhart now, eh, Hermione?" Ron said loudly through the curtain while pulling Harry's limp fingers out of the cuffs one by one, "If Harry wants to take the bone Drop it, he will bring it up himself.”

"Everyone makes mistakes," Hermione said. "And your arm doesn't hurt now, does it, Harry?"

"It really doesn't hurt anymore." Even Cyrus looked at Hermione with a ridiculous expression. It goes without saying what the first victim Harry's expression was now. "Hermione, you should be more sensible and think about it." Well, if Madam Pomfrey couldn't help it, Harry's right hand would have been disabled, and Lockhart would have almost disabled him forever."

"He has no ability at all. He should not have done anything uncertain from the beginning."

This made Hermione a little sad, and then Madam Pomfrey walked into the curtain with a large bottle in her hand, labeled Bonewraith. The two of them followed.

"It's been a tough night," she said, pouring out a steaming mug and handing it to Harry. "Growing bones is hard."

Seeing Harry's sad look, Ron decided to say something else to change the subject: "At least we won! Thanks to you for catching the Golden Snitch. That look on Malfoy's face... He looked like he wanted to kill someone!"

"I really want to know what he did to that Bludger," Hermione said angrily. They had already blamed Malfoy for the Bludger problem.

"We can also write this question on the list and ask him together after we drink the Polyjuice Potion. I hope the Polyjuice Potion tastes better than this..." Harry's words became quieter and quieter. Before Min and Ron realized something was wrong, they saw Harry's eyes seeming to be fixed on Cyrus.

"Compound potion?" Cyrus expressed his "doubts" at the right time.

Now, they also realize something is wrong.

"Harry! You spilled the beans!" Hermione covered his mouth with a pillow like crazy.

Ron quickly stopped in front of Cyrus and said hurriedly: "You heard wrong Ginny, there is no compound potion, how can we refine the compound potion? That is a potion that even senior students cannot refine, let alone Said that the secret recipe is still hidden in the forbidden book area, and we need to go to Snape to steal the potion! This is impossible! And we can't find a place where we can concentrate on making the potion without being disturbed..."

"Ron, I want to remind you, you have told almost everything!" Harry used his left hand to push open the pillow with difficulty.

Ron immediately turned pale and begged quickly: "Don't tell mom, please..."

He just missed giving Cyrus a kiss.

"Haha..." Hermione smiled awkwardly.

"Of course I won't snitch." Cyrus shook his head and said, it would not do him any good, but...

"So, you are planning to use the compound potion to become Slytherin, and then find out if Malfoy is the one who opened the Chamber of Secrets?"

The trio nodded immediately.

Then, Hermione reacted and said in surprise: "Wait, you know the compound potion? And you also know its uses?"

You know, Ron has never heard of compound potions at all.

"I've seen it in books." Cyrus said nonchalantly. Riddle had read the book "Powerful Potion" more than once that year. He dropped the topic and continued, "If you don't mind, you can invite me to join you then."

"You too -" Ron was just about to refuse when there was a bustling sound outside the door, and people from the Gryffindor team swarmed in. He had no choice but to shut his mouth and wink at Cyrus as hard as he could.

The team members brought a lot of food and drinks, as if they were going to have a party directly in the school hospital. This annoyed Madam Pomfrey, who immediately rushed out from the other side and kicked everyone out.

"This kid needs to rest, he has thirty-three bones to grow! Get out! Get out!"

At the entrance of the school hospital, Cyrus met Colin again, who was about to come to visit. This kid originally wanted to go in, but was led out by a group of people from the team. His small stature stretched out in the crowd. Neck looking around.

Ron couldn't avoid him and immediately hid further away.

"Don't look at Colin, Madam Pomfrey doesn't allow us to visit Harry." Cyrus reminded "kindly", "But you can, secretly..."

After saying that, he left directly.

Ginny was a little too tired. In order not to affect her health, Cyrus planned to take a rest. There were still several hours from now to the curfew of Hogwarts.

——

At night, Cyrus woke up in the dark secret room.

The huge basilisk surrounded him.

Although its eyes had terrifying magic, it could not hurt him, the person who controlled the basilisk.

"The second hunt is about to begin!"

He sat on the head of the basilisk and ordered it to close its eyes. This magical animal is actually very different from a snake. Its actions rely more on vision and hearing than on heat induction.

"Listen to my command. I will guide you forward." Cyrus made a terrifying sound, like an evil thing whispering.

Hogwarts was quiet and weird at night. Cyrus keenly avoided Filch who was still patrolling, and rode the huge snake towards the school infirmary.

At the same time, Colin also took a bunch of grapes secretly left at the dinner party, and planned to visit Harry Potter secretly in the same way Cyrus told him. Because it was his first night tour, Colin also brought his camera. He was looking forward to taking pictures of something different.

From this point of view, he got what he wanted.

He hummed a song and walked around the corner briskly, but accidentally bumped into a huge object, causing Colin to fall to the ground, and even the grapes in his hand fell.

"What the hell--" His voice soon became hoarse in his throat as he looked at it.

At this time, a huge snake--its head was bigger than his head--was facing him with its eyes closed. And on the big snake was the familiar "Ginny Weasley".

"Ginny, you are the heir of Slytherin?" he said ridiculously.

"Yes, it's a pity that no third person will know about this." Cyrus said jokingly.

Colin seemed to realize something, and immediately picked up the camera and pointed it at the basilisk and Ginny, trying to take a picture of the culprit.

He could die, but at least--

"Click!"

"Good night, little lion of Gryffindor."

It's the weekend!!! Great
