Chapter 2342 Dementors (Sleep and Tired After Sleeping)

Soon, the train to Hogwarts pulled out of the station, and Ellie sat in the same compartment as Hermione as expected.

"It's great to see you again, Miss Ellie."

Hermione was visibly delighted to see Ellie appear.

"Will you still be our Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher?"

"certainly."

Ellie turned the pages of the book in her hands again, and glanced at Hermione at the same time.

"Why do you ask?"

"Because George said the position is cursed."

Hermione was visibly upset at the subject.

"He told me You-Know-Who wanted to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher at Hogwarts, but was rejected, so he put a curse on the position, and after that almost no Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher could lasted a year."

"Oh... there seems to be such a rumor."

Hearing what Hermione said, Ellie seemed to recall that there was indeed such a saying. It is rumored that the Defense Against the Dark Arts class at Hogwarts is the most expensive class to teach... Well, to put it simply, it is quite boring.

This kind of curse may be useful to ordinary wizards, but want to work on yourself? It's better to dream.

Of course, Hermione didn't tell Ellie, in fact, the students of Hogwarts had already made a private bet on whether she could continue to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher. Strictly speaking, Ellie is not a very popular teacher at Hogwarts, because of her sternness and coldness, many students are quite afraid of her.

But on the other hand, her Defense Against the Dark Arts class is really good, and compared to Snape, who is a picky guy, Ellie actually feels more like Professor McGonagall to the students --- everyone They all respect her and fear her, but they don't hate her very much.

"Boom boom boom."

At this moment, someone knocked on the door of the box, then the door opened, and then Harry Potter appeared at the door.

"Potter? What do you want?"

Seeing someone disturbing herself and Ellie, Hermione was somewhat unhappy. Because of Ellie's influence, the Iron Triangle was of course dismantled, and Hermione didn't have much feeling for Harry and Ron. For Hermione, the famous Harry Potter is just a boy in the same class.

"Sorry, Granger, I have something I want to talk to Mrs. Ellie."

Facing Hermione, Harry was also a little uncomfortable, and Hermione frowned, glanced at him, and then said nothing. Then Harry walked into the carriage, closed the door of the compartment, and sat opposite Ellie, he hesitated for a moment, and then spoke.

"Ms. Ellie...I overheard...about that Sirius."

"Oh."

Ellie continued to read the book, and replied casually, but Hermione came over curiously.

"Sirius, you mean the man who escaped from Azkaban? What happened to him?"

"He's Voldemort's subordinate, and he's trying to kill me...that's what I heard from Mr. Weasley, but what I don't understand is that before I got into the car, Mr. Weasley asked me to promise Don't go to Black... I don't understand, Teacher Ellie, why do I have to go to someone who wants to kill me?"

Hearing this, Hermione came over curiously, while Ellie didn't even raise her head.

"Simple, because he is your godfather."

"Oh... huh?"

Hearing Ellie's answer, Harry nodded instinctively, then froze for a moment, then jumped up suddenly as if a spring had been attached to the sole of his foot, almost hitting the roof of the box directly.

"Wait, Teacher Ellie... What did you say? He..."

"He is your godfather and your father's friend."

Ellie said that she is not Dumbledore and Snape, and she never cares about spoilers.

"According to official records, Voldemort wanted to kill your parents at that time, but your parents were not stupid. In order to protect you, they chose to use the Fidelity Curse—this is a very complicated spell. Simply put, , They will tell their address to a trusted secret person, and use magic to hide this secret address in that person's heart. As long as the person doesn't tell, then even if Voldemort runs to your gate and sticks his face on the glass , he couldn't even discover the existence of the Potters and you."

Hearing this, both Hermione and Harry became nervous, and Harry was even more nervous.

"The chosen keeper at the time was Sirius Black. You see, he is your godfather. I think you should understand that this is enough to represent how close and trustworthy he is to your parents. But then your parents were Voldemort found it and killed it, so there is only one reason—the Fidelity Curse has lost its effect, and the Secret Keeper revealed the secret to Voldemort, it's as simple as that."

Until this time, Ellie raised her head and glanced at Harry.

"So that's why, while no one has proof that Sirius Black betrayed your parents, he was the appointed Secret Keeper at the time, and the only reason the Fidelity Charm didn't work was because the Secret Keeper leaked the secret, and he ended up being banned for that. Tossed into Azkaban, then jailed for twelve years."

After listening to Ellie's introduction, Hermione was dumbfounded, while Harry was even paler and trembling.

Ellie didn't tell Harry about the replacement of the secret keeper, because only James, Lily, Black, and Peter Pettigrew knew about it, and if she said it, people would suspect how she knew it—this is already considered Privacy in absolute privacy.

Of course, from Ellie's point of view, Blake deserves to be blamed. Who told him to be smart enough to change the secret keeper, and they still don't know what kind of virtue Peter Pettigrew is? So she expressed no sympathy to Ellie, who was imprisoned in Azkaban for twelve years by Black, and even wanted to laugh a little bit.

You deserve what you deserve.

"God, you should be careful, Potter..."

After Hermione came to her senses, she also looked at Harry, who was pale at the moment.

"Why did Sirius betray my parents?"

"That's something you'll have to ask him personally, and maybe that's why Mr Weasley won't let you go to him."

At this moment, the sales cart also came, Ellie closed the book in her hand, and then ordered soda and cake.

"Come and have afternoon tea, anyway, idle is idle."

Although it was said to be afternoon tea, the atmosphere was obviously not very good. Harry looked so ugly that he couldn't eat anything, while Hermione looked at this and that, looking at Harry and didn't know what to say. As for Ellie, she ate the cake and drank the soda as if nothing had happened, and then picked up a copy of the Daily Prophet and read it.

"Bo, Potter, don't worry too much about it. Hogwarts is the safest place. With Dumbledore around, Sirius would definitely not dare to come in and look for you, and Mr. Ellie is also here..."

Just when Hermione was about to step forward to comfort Harry, the train suddenly became slower and slower, and the original noisy wheels gradually disappeared. This made Hermione and Harry startled. They instinctively turned their heads to look out the window, but they didn't see the familiar platform. This made them quite puzzled. They opened the box door and looked out, only to see other people also Poking his head out, he looked around suspiciously.

"what happened?"

The two looked at each other suspiciously, but before they could say anything, the train suddenly leaned forward and then stopped abruptly. For a while, there were salutes falling to the ground and screams everywhere, and then, the original dazzling lights were instantly extinguished, and the entire interior of the train suddenly became pitch black.

At the same time, a gentle white light emerged, illuminating the originally dark compartment.

"Teacher Ellie!"

Looking at Teacher Ellie who raised her wand, Hermione and Harry immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"I'll go see what's going on."

Ai Li and the others were sitting in the second car in front of the front of the car, so it was easy to figure out the problem. So Ellie raised her staff and walked out of the box. Hermione and Harry hesitated for a moment, but they still followed Ellie out of the compartment. Obviously, these two little ghosts were also very curious about what happened.

Opening the car door, soon the howling cold wind mixed with raindrops came across the surface. Ellie raised her wand and stepped off the train, looking around, only to see that the sky was dark and gloomy at the moment. Near the front of the train stood the staff of the train. After seeing Ellie and her group get off the car, one of them hurried over.

"Hey, kids can't come out!"

"I'm the tutor for Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts."

Ellie waved at him.

"What happened?"

"It's like this, that..."

Hearing Ellie's answer, the other party seemed to be hesitant, but at this moment, another person next to her pointed in the air with a frightened face.

"They're here!"

Accompanied by the screams, everyone looked up and saw dozens of ghost-like monsters in black robes flying towards them under the dark night sky. And seeing those monsters, Hermione screamed suddenly.

"Dementor!"

"give it to me."

Ellie pulled Hermione behind her, and then she raised the wand in her hand and tapped it lightly.

The next moment, the dazzling pure white light burst out instantly, illuminating the originally dark world.

It was a pure white dragon of light.

Its body shape is almost the same as that of the giant dragon. The huge body spanning the sky is covered in the air like this. The giant dragon spread its wings enough to cover the sky and sun, roaring and looking at the dementor in front of it. In front of this giant dragon of light, those terrifying pitch-black ghosts are like ants in front of a tiger, so insignificant.

"Oh my god..."

Looking at the dragon of light in front of them, Harry and Hermione were stunned. At the same time, the originally closed windows on the train were also opened one by one, and countless students poked their heads out, staring at this scene with wide eyes in surprise.

"Uh……………"

Seeing this, Ellie scratched her head involuntarily. Strictly speaking, it was also the first time for her to use the Patronus Charm, but as far as the current situation is concerned... Isn't it a bit too much?
