Chapter 2372 "Meow"
"...Yes, in order to ensure the safety of the students, it is best to search the entire community again, and find out those people who sneaked in as soon as possible! The children have just followed us all the way, and finally settled down for the time being. Many children are still feeling uneasy! Something happened to Mr. Creevy this time, everyone must be worried again..."
Downstairs in the apartment building that served as a temporary school hospital, Minerva McGonagall, who had just asked several other professors to appease and restrain the students, was talking to Flitwick at the moment.
In fact, as the head of Ravenclaw College, Flitwick should have been going to the student dormitory to take care of the little wizards like the other professors at this time. But Minerva thought about it, and still kept him by her side, planning to give him part of the task of searching for infiltrators.
Yes, only "a part".
Since, frankly speaking, she is a little short of manpower, not only Flitwick, but she is also prepared to deal with those sneaky guys... Of course, there is also a Severus Snape , although when she went to contact other professors just now, she couldn't find them.
"I see." The little Professor Flitwick immediately responded in his shrill voice, "I'll find a way to find out——if they're still in this community, they should be It won't be too hard to find. It's just... Minerva, you know, the problem is what to do with it after you find it."
"At least we have to figure out their origins first." Mag said, and couldn't help frowning, but finally said, "Now is an extraordinary period, if necessary... It's not impossible to use some extraordinary means, everything The safety of the children is our priority.”
"Okay," Flitwick touched his wand subconsciously, nodded, "I see."
Although the old professor of Charms who is said to have a little bit of fairy blood has short arms and legs, his actions are not ambiguous at all. After understanding Mag's thoughts, he immediately turned around and walked across the street. .
But at this moment, a silver-white streamer suddenly appeared from the other side of the street, and ran towards Mag quickly. Seeing this scene, Flitwick paused, turned his head and looked at Professor McGonagall in the middle of the road.
"It's Sirius."
Minerva only saw the big silver dog coming towards her, and immediately recognized that it was the patron saint of Sirius.
And soon, the big silver dog stopped in front of Minerva, but it didn't open its mouth, and Sirius' voice really came out from it.
"Professor McGonagall,
I've probably found them, but... anyway, I didn't disturb them, I just kept an eye on them from outside. Now I'm waiting for you at this intersection in the northernmost part of the community, you'd better bring someone over quickly, I'm worried that they will make some changes soon—"
Before the words were finished, the big silver dog quietly turned into a cloud of light particles and dissipated from the spot.
"I didn't expect that he was not only one step faster than us, but also found it in such a short time... Felius, you go back and inform Pomona! By the way, if you can meet Severus, then Let’s call together, I’ll go to Sirius to ask about the situation first.”
"it is good."
Flitwick had no objection to her arrangement, just nodded and turned to leave. After Minerva watched him go, she also turned around and went straight to the north of the neighborhood that Sirius had mentioned.
...
That's right, Sirius hesitated when he sent the Patronus to Professor McGonagall just now, but finally he didn't include the content about Snape. Because Dumbledore invented the Patronus Charm, although it was ingenious and fast, it was always a one-way conversation. He was not sure whether there were other people around Professor McGonagall at that time.
As for that guy Snape...even though he always hated that "snot-nosed man", he knew that the other person was now...or seemed to be "one of his own" all along. Even though the previous behavior made him look very suspicious, that guy just put on a posture of indifference, which made Sirius a little uncertain for a while.
All in all, let's wait for Professor McGonagall to come over and talk about everything in person!
Thinking of this, Sirius' attention was actually not distracted by his mind much, he kept staring at the old apartment where Snape had just stayed, making sure that no one figure left from it during this period.
Yes, at least there is an anti-apparition spell that can cover it here, and because this is a Muggle community, he doesn't have to worry about the other party trying to use the fireplace to sneak away.
Those guys haven't shown up yet, so they should still be inside.
And just when Sirius gradually began to try to guess the purpose of the group of people and what relationship they had with Snape, a slightly lowered voice suddenly sounded from behind him, interrupting his thinking.
"Meow--"
It was a meow.
Accompanied by this slight meow, Sirius saw a thin tabby cat leaping down from the wall, and turned into Professor Minerva McGonagall with serious eyes shining before landing on the ground.
"Sirius," Minerva slightly raised her pointed hat, glanced out of the alley, and asked softly without pausing, "how is it? Which building is it?"
"It's the building diagonally opposite, the oldest one...see it? The window with the curtains half-closed is...but I haven't actually seen those people, so I can't be sure—— They're well hidden."
"Ok. "
While listening to Sirius' low voice, Minerva looked towards the window he mentioned, and the square gold-rimmed glasses on her nose shone faintly.
From here, you can already see what the inside of the window looks like, and you can find that there is not a single person inside, as if it has always been just an empty house that has long been unoccupied.
But she knew in her heart that Sirius was never a man who was aimless, and the truth was definitely not as simple as it seemed to her eyes.
But at this moment, she suddenly heard Sirius pondering for a while, as if he was hesitating for something.
"What's wrong?" Minerva turned her head and glanced at him.
"I was just thinking that there might be some complications behind this matter," Sirius shook his head, then frowned, "Professor McGonagall... In fact, I followed Snape's trail to find here Yes, and just now, I met him."
