Chapter 2367 The Shadow Spreads

"...Yes, Professor McGonagall, I personally think that Miss Blois's proposal is indeed worthy of a try. That's why I came here specifically to meet with you—you understand, the rune of the boy Maca The equipment is worth the trip myself. I just don't know... what do you think?"

Sirius came to Italy on a special trip, and naturally got a special reception from Professor McGonagall. Except for a few words of bickering with Snape on the side of the road at first, he was invited by Minerva to go upstairs to sit down and drink a cup of hot coffee full of Italian flavor.

However, the topics they talked about were far less relaxed and leisurely than the steaming drinks and sweet and delicious pastries.

"Sirius...although I really want to go, but you also know that I have to be here to watch those children well-whether as a headmaster for Hogwarts, or as a It's really hard for me to walk away from ordinary professors for the parents who entrust their children to us."

Listening to Minerva's sincere but apologetic answer, Sirius could only slightly nod his head.

As the other party said, Sirius was indeed very aware of the embarrassment of the other party. In particular, he also knew that although the teachers and students of the school escaped unharmed because of Maca's early warning of the disaster, when the disaster came, he tried his best to kill as many British wizarding families, including the parents of the students, and even The Muggles were sent to France to be resettled by the Blois family, many of whom survived to this day.

However, after that, the parents of those students also sent a joint letter to Professor McGonagall, who was taking refuge at sea at the time, through the Blois family. Professor Woz, hope that their children can be sheltered.

For Minerva McGonagall and others who are professors, this may have been a natural responsibility in the first place! But when they received the pleading letter signed by parents, both wizards and Muggles, the sense of responsibility on their shoulders suddenly became heavier.

So, in this situation where everything is still unclear and most of the students are still anxious, how can Minerva agree to the proposal brought by Sirius?

"Then... I'll ask Flitwick again! He was also a dueling champion at the time, and he has been studying Charms all these years, so maybe he can give it a try—"

Just as Sirius was talking, Snape, who had been sitting by the side and hadn't spoken since he came over, took out his pocket watch and looked at it, then stood up on his own, as if intending to leave.

He didn't care, after all, in his opinion, it didn't matter if Snape was there or not, and it was even better to go away as soon as possible. But when Minerva saw it, she couldn't help saying casually:

"Severus, where are you going? Pomona's get out of class will be over for a while, right?"

Yes, even in Italy, the teaching of young wizards is still going on every day... Well, in fact, it would be better to say that the task of teaching is even more important in the face of this increasingly serious disaster.

"I just heard you mention the dueling champion, and I suddenly remembered that I have to check the status of the dueling doll - I have to use it in the next class."

Snape explained something casually, without stopping, and quickly left through the door.

Seeing his gloomy and hurried appearance, Sirius curled his lips subconsciously, and said casually:

"It's been so many years, this kid hasn't changed much, he still has that stinky face that looks like everyone owes him a lot of Galleon..."

"Don't say a few words," Minerva on the opposite side said with some reproach, "Severus has helped us a lot these days! Especially after taking over the duties of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class professor,

He taught the children a lot of practical knowledge, and he spent a lot of time for it... He's just not very good at interacting with people! "

Seeing Minerva speaking for Snape, although Sirius really wanted to refute a few more words and talk about the latter's sarcastic remarks, in the end he just shrugged.

Afterwards, the two quickly returned the topic to the original matter.

...

For about half an hour after Snape left, Professor McGonagall and Sirius chatted a lot more. From the beginning, there was something about Maca's rune equipment, and it continued to the front line... that is, the current situation in the British disaster area.

Even though the front line is full of dangers, it is almost impossible to convey the information from Hermione and others in the first place, so that Sirius can only tell the part of the information he knows, but that alone is enough Professor McGonagall frowned.

At the same time, the two of them naturally did not realize that something seemed to have happened outside in the past half hour.

Until, a hasty knock on the door interrupted their conversation that was about to end.

"Tom tom tom—"

Hearing the sound from the door, Professor McGonagall paused for a moment, then stood up.

"Sit down first, I'll go see what's going on with those kids."

For so many years, Minerva has long been used to all kinds of tossing about little wizards, especially she has been the head of Gryffindor College for so long.

But during this disaster, she could also feel that those children were gradually becoming more sensible-didn't you see that only Lavender and Romida appeared when Ms. Rich came? If it were in the past, the number of students who came to join in the fun would probably be five times more!

"What's wrong?"

Minerva, who had heard the commotion in the corridor outside the door, would not be surprised to see these little guys when she opened the door, so she asked a serious question with a straight face as usual.

"Professor McGonagall! Colin... Go and see Colin! He just fainted suddenly, and he looked very bad. Jimmy has gone to find Madam Pomfrey behind his back...We don't Know what's going on!"

"what!"

Hearing what the student in front of her said, Minerva's expression changed immediately, she turned her head suddenly and said to Sirius who had followed behind her:

"I have to go and see, you—"

"Stop talking, I'm going too."

Sirius waved his hand, and immediately ignored the little wizards who looked at him in surprise, and hurried away with Minerva following the student who came to report the news.

"Isn't even Italy... safe anymore?" He secretly worried in his heart.
