Chapter 320 Abnormal

Hagrid was taken away by the Ministry of Magic, but fear still spread in Hogwarts Castle.

Because the monster in the secret room has not been found yet, it may still attack everyone.

The professors acted as if nothing had happened. They escorted students from one classroom to another during the day, and patrolled the floors of the castle at night.

Although Lockhart repeatedly said that the danger was over and there was no need to waste time escorting students, no one listened to him.

These days, the Hufflepuff common room is always crowded with people, because after six o'clock in the evening, students have nowhere else to go, and everyone always has a lot to say.

After dinner, Kyle played wizard chess with Cedric as usual, but his record today was a bit bad.

For more than an hour, Kyle didn't win a single game.

"Why do I feel like you're absent-minded?" Cedric asked as he put away the chessboard, "Are you still thinking about the secret room?"

"No..." Kyle shook his head, "I just feel uncomfortable."

Since a few days ago, he has felt dizzy and it's hard to concentrate on anything he does, and this situation is getting worse.

When he was playing chess just now, he even heard a buzzing sound, as if there were many people talking in his head.

"You don't have a cold, do you?" Connor looked at Kyle with some worry.

The weather has been a bit abnormal recently. Although it's almost summer, it's been raining all the time, and it's been hot and cold. Many people in the castle have caught a cold.

"I think it should be." Cedric put away the chessboard, "Do you want to write a letter to Professor Sprout and ask her to take you to the school hospital.

"No, I have a stimulant here. "Kyle patted his forehead, took out a bottle of red potion from his pocket, pulled out the stopper and took a sip.

The next second, a stream of steam came out of his head, and the drowsiness was relieved a lot.

Because he was not feeling well, Kyle returned to the dormitory not long after drinking the medicine, and fell asleep in a daze on the bed.

Kyle had a long dream. In the dream, he came to the secret room, and the snakes carved on the pillars all came alive and surrounded him.

But the strange thing is that they neither attacked nor let him go, just surrounded him like this...

The next day, Kyle was awakened by Ryan.

Professor Sprout was waiting at the door, ready to send them to class.

"You slept for almost twelve hours."

Mickel put a few wrapped sandwiches on the table, "I heard from Cedric that you have a cold. Do you want to ask Professor Sprout for leave... If it's you, it's definitely no problem to miss a day of class."

"No need. "Kyle shook his head, "I've taken the medicine, it should be fine."

"Well then..." Mikel and Ryan didn't say anything else.

...

I don't know if it's because the stimulant has expired, Kyle drank it for three consecutive days, but it didn't work at all.

He was still groggy every day, and he always had the same dream at night.

On the third night, he even fell asleep as soon as he returned to the common room.

"No, you should go to the school hospital."

After Cedric woke him up, he wanted to write a letter to Professor Sprout without saying anything.

This time Kyle didn't refuse again, because he also found that he was indeed a little abnormal.

The written message was sent out by Laton, and Cedric and Connor also changed into robes, ready to accompany Kyle to the school hospital after Professor Sprout came.

But they waited for more than half an hour before Professor Sprout hurried into the common room.

Her face was very pale, but her eyes were red, as if she had just cried.

"Thank God. "After seeing Kyle, she forced a smile, "Sorry kid, something delayed me just now, I'll take you to the school hospital now."

Cedric and Connor wanted to go with them, but were rejected.

Professor Sprout took Kyle out of the common room and walked in the empty corridor.

She looked very nervous, and kept looking around, holding her wand tightly in her hand.

Kyle soon knew why.

Almost all the professors came to the school hospital.

Of course, it was not because of Kyle, but because of Ron Weasley on the bed.

He lay there stiffly, like a sculpture.

Professor McGonagall was questioning Lockhart angrily.

"Students were attacked... just because you were going to take care of your hair? !"

"I, I don't know..." Lockhart kept trembling all over, and his wand was still stuck in his hair.

"There is only one corridor left... they said there is no need to send..." Lockhart stammered to defend himself.

"So you went back? "Professor McGonagall was like an angry lion, "You knew Dumbledore was not in school today, why did you dare to let the students leave alone!"

"But, Hagrid has been caught..."

"It is obvious that the real heir is someone else." Snape said coldly: "It's a pity that the monster didn't go to find you."

"..."

"Poppy, can you come and see this child?"

At this time, Professor Sprout came in with Kyle Kyle.

After hearing her words, the school hospital suddenly became silent. The professors stopped blaming Lockhart and turned their heads almost at the same time.

"Don't be nervous, Minerva... It's not an attack." Professor Sprout explained quickly.

The professors also noticed that Kyle walked in by himself, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.

Only Snape's expression was a little strange, regretful, but also a little fortunate.

Madam Pomfrey ran over and pulled Kyle to check carefully...

Taking advantage of this time, the professors pulled the curtains around Ron's bed to block Kyle's sight.

Ten minutes later, Madam Pomfrey stood up.

"It's not a cold... Maybe you are just too nervous, so you keep having the same dream."

She took Kyle to a bed, "You will stay here tonight..."

Kyle nodded and sat quietly on the bed.

"Is it possible..." Snape asked in a long tone, "He is fine at all."

"I have my own judgment, Professor Snape."

Madam Pomfrey said with a straight face: "I can tell whether he is pretending to be sick at a glance. I can fully predict that if the attack is not resolved, there will be more and more cases like this...

She came over with a large bottle with a label of "Dreamless Sleeping Agent" on it.

"Try this first." She poured a large cup of steaming hot water and handed it to Kyle, "It should help you sleep well. "

The potion in the school hospital was as unpalatable as ever, but fortunately it was still bearable.

After Kyle finished drinking it, Madam Pomfrey stepped out and closed the curtain for him.

Not long after, the professors also left. In order to prevent more students from being attacked, they had to return to the castle for patrol immediately.

The school hospital soon became quiet.

The dreamless sleeping potion did allow Kyle to have a good sleep... but it was very short.

Two hours later, Kyle suddenly opened his eyes, and he could not fall asleep again.

He thought of Ron lying next to him, and frowned.

Kyle should have thought of this day a long time ago. If the basilisk was not solved, some students would definitely be attacked... petrified, or even killed directly.

Today it was Ron, tomorrow it might be Cedric, Connor, Fred, ...

Is it really worth putting everyone, including friends, in danger for a basilisk?

The answer is no...there is no doubt about it.

But why did he hesitate before?

Kyle's face was horribly ugly.

Especially a few days ago, he had already thought of telling Dumbledore about the matter, but after just sleeping, he forgot about this idea without leaving any trace.

When did his memory become so bad?

Or is it the Confusion Spell?

But if it is the Confusion Spell, who did it...Riddle's diary?

When did he do it, why don't I have any impression at all.

Kyle didn't dare to sleep anymore. He endured the constant buzzing in his head and sat up from the bed.
