Chapter 117: Strange Laura
"I guess he doesn't know how much those things are worth," Ron held his pitiful pocket money in his hand like a treasure, "That's dozens of gold galleons!"
"I think I'm starting to like Professor Gilderoy Lockhart. At least he's very generous, isn't he?" Fanlin was in a good mood at this time. It was always a good thing to have some money left over. He could buy some more practical things.
"When she pays the bill, he will definitely regret it. You know, he was very hesitant when he gave Harry a book in the bookstore!" Ron said happily.
Hearing these words, Harry also felt that Gilderoy Lockhart was so cute.
The four of them laughed all the way and walked to the courtyard. There was only one class of Gilderoy today. They could relax for the rest of the time, such as going to Hagrid to see Norbo, or sitting outside.
These days, the people in the castle were panicked because of what happened that night. It was really too depressing.
Especially for Vanlin and Harry, given the title of Slytherin's heir, Vanlin's suspicion was naturally excluded in the eyes of others, and all the doubts were focused on Harry. Even in Gryffindor, who had always been proud of Harry, some people gradually doubted Harry's identity.
This made Harry more and more irritable, but Harry's scar did not feel any pain, which was a good thing.
"Vanlin, Hermione, Harry, Ron..." A weak call came from behind several people, and the four people turned around. The owner of the voice was Laura.
"Oh, hello... Laura."
The four people were a little unnatural. Whether it was what happened in the hall that day or about Slytherin's wishes, Laura was a Slytherin. No matter what, before the matter was resolved, the four people always felt that it was strange to have too much contact with Laura.
"Uh... What's the matter, Laura?" Hermione asked a little unnaturally. As a girl, it is better to let Hermione do the work of contacting girls.
"I... I just wanted to come over... to say hello to you," Laura said with some stammering, "I know you've been having a hard time recently, after all, you've encountered strange things, especially you, Fanlin, and of course, Harry..."
"Me?" Fanlin looked at Laura strangely, "Maybe you should be more worried about Harry, he's more troublesome than me."
"I know..." Laura seemed to want to say something, but she quickly stopped herself.
Looking flustered, Laura focused her attention on Harry.
"I'm fine..." Harry saw Laura looking at him, and hurriedly shook his hand in panic, "To be honest, I'm used to it!"
"I know..." Laura hesitated, "Harry, hold on, okay, I know that person will never be you, I believe you!"
"Uh..." Harry scratched his head unnaturally, "Okay... okay!"
Being believed by a traditional Slytherin, while being doubted by his classmates who lived with him day and night, it was really a bit sad to think about it.
"Thank you, Laura." Harry thanked him sincerely. Someone could believe him, which made Harry very happy.
"No..." Laura was about to answer Harry, but a dizziness came over her, which made Laura's figure a little shaky.
"Are you okay..." Harry hurriedly stepped forward to support Laura.
At this time, Laura's face looked even paler, and she struggled with her arms, as if she had lost her center of gravity. She did not let Harry support her, and staggered back two steps.
"Be careful..." In the exclamation, Hermione and Fanlin stepped forward on the left and right to quickly hold Laura. Although it was strange why Laura was not supported by Harry, the two did not look much alike. Maybe it was just because Laura lost some balance.
"How are you?" Fanlin asked hurriedly, "Or we can send you to Madam Pomfrey."
"No... It's okay, I just feel a little dizzy, and I haven't rested well these two days!" Laura smiled reluctantly.
Indeed, on Laura's somewhat sickly pale face, the two dark circles under her eyes looked a little glaring!
"What's wrong, Potter... Was it rejected by your girlfriend?" Malfoy's voice came from not far away at the right time.
Malfoy had been hiding aside and observing Harry. He was very curious about what Harry and his friends were doing with Gilderoy, the liar, but they were too far away, so Malfoy couldn't hear clearly.
Until he saw what happened just now, Malfoy really couldn't miss this good opportunity to hit Harry.
"Malfoy..." Harry's face flushed unnaturally, because of congestion.
Since the beginning of this semester, Harry couldn't control his anger every time he talked to Malfoy.
"It's so sad, Potter." Malfoy's eyes were full of teasing, "Look, our famous Harry Potter was rejected by his girlfriend Laura Chris, and he was not even allowed to touch her. I have to say, Chris, you are really an unqualified admirer, of course, you are not a qualified Slytherin!"
"Shut up your stinky mouth, Malfoy! Laura is not..." Hermione hit back angrily, but the feeling of struggle from the palm of her hand interrupted Hermione's accusation.
"Be careful..." Hermione carefully let go of her hand. Laura's face became even paler, and she pulled out her wand weakly with one hand.
"Take it back, Malfoy!" Laura stood up stubbornly, her hands trembling a little, but she still pointed her wand at Malfoy firmly.
"What, did I say something wrong? Or are you angry, Chris?" Malfoy just crossed his arms. In his opinion, Laura was in a vulnerable state.
"I'm saying it again, take it back!" Laura's hands barely stabilized, and from Laura's tone, it can be heard that she is very angry now.
"You are really angry, Chris!" Malfoy said sarcastically, "What if I can't? What? Do you still want to attack me?"
"Stupefy!"
Without any warning, a beam of coma spell was emitted from the front of Laura's wand, but the red light of the coma spell was not so pure. The thin black air wrapped around the spell, and Malfoy was knocked away for a distance. A stream of bright red blood flowed down Malfoy's nostrils!
"Laura?" Fan Lin looked at Laura in surprise. The coma spell would not cause bleeding on people.
"Laura?" She called again, and Laura seemed to come to her senses suddenly, grabbed her wand and ran away.
"What should we do now?" Harry looked at Malfoy who fell to the ground uncertainly.
Several people looked at each other, but no one wanted to get Malfoy up.
Fortunately, Malfoy woke up by himself after a while. Fortunately, Laura's magic power was not much, otherwise he would have been unconscious for an hour.
"Humph... Remember this!" Malfoy shouted sharply, stretched out his hand to wipe the blood from his nostrils and ran away in a hurry.
"I hope he really learns from his lesson..." Ron said speechlessly. Basically, it's like this every time.
"But isn't Laura more worrying?" Fanlin thought. According to Laura's personality, it is impossible for Malfoy to be like this.
"Maybe Malfoy completely angered her..." Harry said helplessly, "But we should be more worried about our Quidditch match with Slytherin tomorrow, right?" (To be continued)
