Archaeologists at Hogwarts

Chapter 445 The Night of the Full Moon
444 Full Moon Night
After Lily left (being driven away by Toby), Morgan Le Fay was also arranged by Toby to rest in the Room of Requirement, which can be turned into a bedroom with any decoration and style Morgan wants, which can fully meet all her requirements.

Morgan also explained why she planned to attack Mr Borgin.

"I have no money, not even a single piece of gold. Before Hai Erbo finds me again, I have to find a place where I can live and have money."

What a weird way of acting.

On the one hand, Morgan emphasized the importance of gold, and seemed to be very disciplined, knowing that he had to pay when buying things, but on the other hand, he did things like sneak attacks.

That was enough to send her to prison.
-
It was quiet again in the Office of Ancient Magic.

"Is Morgan's method of attacking Bojin similar to yours?"

Toby asked Angela, "Bewitching other wizards is a bit like the Imperius Curse."

Angela stared at Toby with wide-eyed eyes, and the emotions she had been holding back all along broke out completely.

"That's all you care about?!"

Angela shouted in disbelief: "That's Morgan Le Fay, the legendary rival of Merlin, she came back to life—"

"To be precise, it's not a real resurrection." Toby corrected.

"She is still the original owner of my body!" Angela pointed to her chest and said, "This is her body. You don't even suspect that she came to take back my body. The body of the fairy in the lake is only This one, shaped by the Sorcerer's Stone, is definitely not comparable, and she has no other choice but to take mine away!"

"Also, you actually believe everything she says. What if she is pretending? Planning to cooperate with Haier Boli?! Where's your intuition? Where's your suspicion? Why did you suddenly disappear?"

Toby held out a hand to stop Angela's condemnation.

With Al's help, Angela managed to calm down.

Until then, Toby said, "I can't find Hai Erbo to confirm her authenticity. From your point of view, she only has the option of taking your body back. In fact, I have the same choice."

"What does this mean?" Angela asked puzzled.

Toby explained, "How long do you think you can keep Harpo from watering the mason tree on a full moon?"

"Only for the first time. This is what I think. Only for the first time, when no one knows, can Hai Erbo be concealed. It is difficult to escape the changes in Hogwarts." eyes, not to mention that Grindelwald also knows about it. I will be attacked every time there is a full moon in the future - I know there is such a thing, Haierbo and Grindelwald will definitely not miss this opportunity .”

"Do you understand now? On the night of the second full moon, that is, the next full moon, I have to find a way to deal with the people who came to attack me—Merlin's heart is already on me, and before it grows up, I can't take the initiative to stop this process. This is Merlin's curse, not everyone is qualified to take his heart, and I am no exception."

Angela still couldn't understand.

"But what does this have to do with Morgan? She can't help you block Merlin's heart, and she probably can't match Haierbo, otherwise she wouldn't think about running away. What can she do?"

Toby stared straight at Angela, his eyes were particularly penetrating.

"She can help me protect you."

Toby's tone was particularly gloomy at this moment: "Do you think that the current Morgan has her own soul? If so, who will be the most compatible with her soul?"

"Only you, Angela, only you."

"You occupy Morgan's body, maybe she can replace your soul to a certain extent, of course, in an extremely safe way."

"In this way, even if you are Hai Erbo's Horcrux, he will not be able to affect you. At that time, only Morgan can be controlled by Hai Erbo, and you will be safe and sound."

Toby lowered his voice, and he repeated—

"Now, do you understand?"

Angela's eyes widened.

"You are so cruel. If Hai Erbo really took advantage of the full moon to attack me, Morgan would most likely die after being tortured."

"Then she just happened to go to accompany Merlin." Toby snorted and said, "Although I am an archaeologist, I like to find those ancient relics——but I only like relics, not living people."

"Whether it's Haierbo or Morgan, it's best to die. Don't disturb the current magic world, which is also my magic world."

Angela really felt that the old Toby was easier to get along with, even the Toby who stole her scepter was better than the current one.

She turned to look at Al, trying to get approval from Al.

"Yeah!~"

Al raised his paw and howled.

Angela clearly heard Al shouting——

[Wizard Liberation Front!Wizards Liberation Front!Wizards Liberation Front! 】

These two guys are really hopeless.
-
The Room of Requirement ended up being turned into a tiny room by Morgan, exactly what she should look like now—a little girl's bedroom.

She was sitting by the bed, holding a cup of panna cotta in her hand, and eating it with a spoon.

This cup of pudding is from Dobby.

He didn't just leave after delivering the snacks, but stayed obediently in a corner of the bedroom, trying to minimize his presence, and at the same time monitoring Morgan according to Toby's instructions.

It's not just Dobby.

On the walls of this room, there is a cluster of willow branches that will appear no matter how Morgan changes the arrangement of the room.

God knows how the mason tree got here, and Toby had worked so hard to make it so that he didn't even understand how he did it.

But it doesn't matter.

Importantly, Toby knew, and Morgan herself knew, that she was being closely watched.

Because there's one thing Morgan never brings up—

That's how on earth she escaped from Hai Erbo.

The two of them tacitly didn't mention this point, as if nothing happened.

Morgan, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, didn't look at Dobby, her eyes were fixed on the branches protruding from the wall.

"I'll be killed by Toby Highmore."

She said abruptly, "If he wants me to die, he will definitely do such a thing."

Dobby, who stayed still, was taken aback. He thought Morgan was talking to himself.

"Principal Haimo won't kill innocent people indiscriminately!" Dobby retorted in a sharp voice, "He's the best wizard Dobby has ever seen! He's kinder than everyone else put together!"

Morgan tossed the remaining half cup of pudding without looking back, and Dobby jumped forward to catch the cup.

When he raised his head again, he found that Morgan had got into the quilt.

"I'm full and sleepy."

she said, and then there was no sound.
-
The day of the signing has finally arrived.

Even though there were so many urgent matters to be busy, Toby still willfully refused to push down the signing meeting.

According to his words-

"What if my book tops the bestseller list? I am now the headmaster of Hogwarts, with a different status, and this book is the first book I publish after I became the headmaster. It will definitely make a very different impact!"

"Just wait and see! And Gilderoy Lockhart! I'll see how long he can outrun me!"

Lihen Bookstore.

A banner with the words "Ancient Magic and Dark Magic" was hung here, and a small table was also arranged.

Toby sat behind the desk, with stacks of new books on either side of him.

Al also pretended to put on a small tuxedo, which was strongly requested by Toby, and such an extremely important day must be treated with a very rigorous attitude.

Angela had a camera hanging around her neck, and she was standing not far away, waiting to take a photo of Toby and the book fans.

A little boy walked over under the guidance of his father. He looked at Toby curiously. He was probably a freshman who was just about to enter school, and he hadn't seen Toby in school yet.

"Who is this person?" The little boy turned to look at his father and asked.

The middle-aged wizard led the little boy far away from Toby's table. He lowered his voice and said, "You remember the wish box? It was invented by this man."

The little boy froze for two seconds.

He suddenly howled loudly.

"It turned out to be you!" The little boy rushed towards Toby at once, causing the smile on Toby's face to freeze.

"You pay me for my pocket money! I don't want "Ancient Magic"! I want the Firebolt! You are lying! It's too much!"

Click.

Angela immediately took pictures of this scene.

In the camera, Toby stares at the little boy with a dark face, Al holds Toby's arm tightly to tell him not to do anything, the middle-aged wizard rushes over to drag the little boy away - the most eye-catching thing is Tears on the face of the little boy.

If it is not heartbroken, no one can cry so terribly.
-
When Harry and Ron arrived at Lihen Bookstore as agreed in advance, they immediately saw Toby who was drunk.

There were already several empty wine bottles beside him, and the smell of wine was so strong that it was frightening.

"Why do I seem to have seen this scene before?" Ron said nonchalantly, "Why is it so familiar?"

"You're talking about the time at Gringotts, right?" Harry reminded in a low voice, "I remember that time because few book fans went to Professor Highmore. I guess it's the same this time. When you talk later, don't worry about it." Be careful."

Ron nodded solemnly immediately.

After they bought the new textbooks, they came to Toby's small table nervously.

But before the two of them could speak, Toby said vaguely: "Students again, are there no book fans besides students? I won't sign. Where's the wine? Bring me another bottle of wine."

Al took out a bottle of devil's wine from his belly pocket and put it in front of Toby, then he took the book from the embarrassed Harry and Ron, and signed his name on it with a quill.

At the same time, on the other side, Angela, who was already sitting in a chair reading a novel, raised her camera. Her gaze was still fixed on the storybook, and she pressed the shutter button directly regardless of whether it was aligned or not.

In the shot, Toby thrusts the bottle into his mouth with his head thrown back, his hair disheveled.Al showed his signature to Harry and Ron with a happy face-it still wrote "Al" instead of "Toby Highmore".Ron looked at Toby strangely, while Harry stared at Al's signature with a hesitant expression on his face.

"When Professor Haimo sobers up, we won't be taught a lesson by him because of signing?"

After getting a "don't worry" reply from Al, the expression on Harry's face became much better.

Harry and Ron were knocked away by someone hurrying over, narrowly missing them into the pile of wine bottles.

"I thought I was late."

Hermione gasped and said that she quickly found a book from the bookshelf, and after paying the money, she hurriedly snatched the wine bottle from Toby's hand, which made Harry and Ron stunned .

"Huh?" Toby opened his eyes in a daze. He was wondering why his hand was suddenly empty, but then a quill was stuffed into his palm.

Hermione held the book high, and when she saw that Toby didn't respond, she simply pressed Toby's hand and wrote his name on the book.

"It's finally over."

Hermione breathed a sigh of relief.

"Miss Granger"

Only then did Toby see clearly who the person in front of him was, and he asked suspiciously, "How did you make it back? I remember you said in your letter that you were on vacation with your parents."

As one of Toby's few book fans, Hermione has been following Toby's new book publication progress, which also includes the signing meeting.

"I'm back early, sir!"

Hermione's eyes sparkled, and she said cheerfully: "Cedric wrote to me a while ago, and he said that he had made unprecedented progress in the auto-casting wand, but it's not convenient to describe it in detail in the letter, so I will Come back in a hurry."

Ron, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "Is the progress you said the same as I thought?"

When Pandora changed, Ron was also present, and he witnessed the whole process with his own eyes.

The equally informed Harry was more direct.

"You want to study the devil?! Don't be kidding, what do you do to learn this well-ah, I'm not saying you're bad, professor, I'm just-"

Toby waved his hand indifferently, and he returned to his drunken look: "So it's not because my signing will come back. Sure enough, I shouldn't have made such a stupid decision."

He was still wondering if he was a book fan.

"Um..." Hermione was embarrassed for a moment.

"Forget it." Toby stood up with a desolate expression: "I hope this is also my last stupid decision, and don't make things worse."

"Al, Angela, let's go."

The three of them stood there blankly, and they watched Professor Haimo walk away.

"The professor seems sad."

"It's not like, he's just sad."

"Why even you have changed, Hermione."

"How can this be my fault. I'm in fifth grade, and I can't just focus on the position of the assistant like I used to. Do you know that there is an OWL exam this year? I have to put my mind on it-but it will Give some to the self-casting wands. Cedric and I have an appointment to meet at the ice cream shop, do you want to come with me?"

"It just so happens that I don't want to go back to work in the store."

"I'll let it go."

Harry said awkwardly.

"What's wrong?" Hermione asked curiously.

Harry pointed upward to the sky.

"Tonight is a full moon, and my father is going to Sirius' house again. I have to stay at home with my mother and wait for his news. This is a tradition in our family. No matter where we are, we must report to our family that they are safe."

"Today is no exception."
