Chapter 542 Controversy (for subscription, for collection, for tickets)
"Poison in the wine?" Fred asked softly in the corridor in front of the school hospital.Ryan had already come out of the office with the Weasleys at this time.Now, the Weasleys were accompanying Ron by the hospital bed, while the others came to the corridor at the entrance of the school hospital together.

"Yes." Harry said quickly.He couldn't think of anything else right now, and was glad to have the opportunity to revisit the topic. "Slughorn took it from—"

"Could it be that he put something in Ron's glass when you weren't looking?" George asked.

"It's unlikely." Ryan shook his head. "Because all of our wine was poisoned after the inspection, and it was confirmed that the poison was put into the wine bottle. The reason why Ron was poisoned was because he drank too fast, and I didn't have time to stop him—"

"It seems that the original target is likely to be Slughorn, but who would want to kill an indisputable potion master?" George shook his head. After working for a year, he also knew clearly The true value of a potions master.They didn't feel that Voldemort killed Slughorn simply because he was teaching at Hogwarts, let alone that Slughorn was a noble pure-blood, killing him was not in line with the habits of Death Eaters.

"Dumbledore thinks that Voldemort wants to pull Slughorn over, and it's hard to say what the Death Eaters will do in this situation." Harry said, "Slughorn had been hiding from Hogwarts before coming to Hogwarts. And..." he thought of the memory that Dumbledore hadn't yet had from Slughorn, "maybe Voldemort wanted to get rid of him and thought he might be valuable to Dumbledore."

"When Professor Slughorn was in the school hospital just now, he seemed to say that he planned to give this bottle of wine to the principal, so the target of the poisoner may also be Principal Dumbledore." Ginny recalled.

"The poisoners don't know much about Slughorn, then," Hermione interrupted. "Anyone who knows Slughorn knows that he probably keeps all the goodies for himself."

At this moment, heavy footsteps were heard in the corridor, and everyone looked up to see Hagrid striding in, with rain on his hair, a bearskin coat flapping behind him, a crossbow in his hand, and a dolphin stepping out on the ground. Generally large mud footprints.

"After waking up, I have been teaching Grapp to speak English in the Forbidden Forest. As soon as I got back to have breakfast, I heard Professor Sprout tell me about Ron! How is he?"

"It's fine," said Harry, "they said he'd be fine."

After looking at Ron who was accompanied by his parents through the glass window, Hagrid sat down and asked in a low voice. "Do you know why someone attacked Ron? I couldn't believe it when I heard the news."

"It's not just Ron," said Harry, sitting next to Hagrid. "If Ryan hadn't discovered the poison in the wine in time, I guess there are five people lying here now, not just Ron. But apart from this, we don't know what the attack was for. We were still discussing this before you came over. What's the problem?"

"It can't be that someone has trouble with the Gryffindor students?" Hagrid said worriedly, "First Katie, now Ron and you..."

"Probably not, because our visit to Professor Slughorn today was a very accidental event, and no one could have predicted it in advance." Hermione said softly. "But this poisoning should be related to the last cursed necklace attack."

"Where does that come from?" asked Fred.
"First, both times what should have been fatal did not, although this was pure luck. Second, neither the poison nor the necklace appeared to have harmed the intended victims. Third, in both attacks I and Ryan was all there, and they all took action to save people." She said in a deep voice, "It seems that the person behind the scenes is even more sinister, because they don't seem to care how many people they kill in order to attack the real target. At the same time—"

Having said that, Hermione paused for a moment, then glanced at everyone and said. "At the same time, Ryan and I are also the most suspected people. After all, the chances of being on the scene twice and saving people are really too small."

"I trust you both," said Harry firmly. "Because if you two really want to hurt others, you will never use such a stupid approach, not to mention that you usually have a lot of opportunities to be alone with me and Ron, and you don't have to choose if you really want to do it. way."

"Thank you for your trust." Ryan said to Harry with a smile. "But we still have to—"

Halfway through Ryan's words, the door of the school hospital opened, and Madam Pomfrey called out to them. "Up to four more people can come in to visit the patients now. Which one of you wants to come in?"

Ryan and Hermione got up and left together so that Ron could stay with his family.Ten minutes after returning to the common room, Harry also came back, and Ryan learned from him that he knew from Hagrid that Dumbledore and Snape had had a fight, and the headmaster asked Snape to Scrutiny of Slytherin students must be increased.

Ryan thinks that Dumbledore actually probably knew that he came to the school to kill him, and now the headmaster is actually warning Malfoy not to allow him to attack innocent people like this again.After all, as a headmaster, Dumbledore didn't want any more students to be hurt for any reason.

Harry looked tired after what had just happened and wanted to sit in the common room and rest for a while.But it didn't take long for Cormike McLaggen to come in from the outside and start discussing the Quidditch match with Harry, looking at the tired-looking Harry and the chattering McLaggen.Ryan and Hermione quickly packed up their things and went to the library to read, leaving Harry, who was staring at the two with pitiful eyes, in the common room.

Word spread quickly that Ron had been poisoned the next day, but everyone seemed to think it might have been an accident, since he had been in the Potions master's room and had taken the antidote right away and was fine.What Lane heard from these rumors was that Slughorn had formulated the antidote.It seems that Dumbledore erased Lane's contribution out of some consideration.But Ryan thinks it's good now, and it just meets his requirement of being invisible behind the scenes.

Ryan went to the school hospital to visit Ron the next day. Ron is much better now, and he can even lie halfway on the pillow and kiss Lavender Brown who took the initiative to take care of him. It seemed a little flustered to separate.

Although Lavender is just an ordinary girl, she is definitely not the kind with a questionable IQ.In the original text, it seems that some nympho is purely forced out by insecurity.Because at that time Ron just used her as a tool to demonstrate to Hermione, so she just did everything possible to really get Ron at that time, and she was naturally exaggerated in doing things.

And now that Ron is really in love with her, naturally she doesn't need to be so neurotic.At least according to Ryan's observations, Lavender and Ron behaved normally together, and they definitely didn't have the exaggerated feeling of sticking together all day long.

Lane found out by asking Lavender.Ron is now drinking 20ml of rue essence every four hours and will be discharged from the hospital in about two weeks.According to Madam Pomfrey, although Ron was not seriously injured this time due to the timely rescue, it is best to detoxify a little bit if he wants to be cured without sequelae, but Ron is obviously not satisfied with the current situation. Healing speed.

"Lane, Madam Pomfrey said that the antidote you gave me is a master, so do you have any medicine that can make me get better soon? I really can't bear to stay in the hospital for a week and miss it." About the Quidditch match." Ron asked with a bitter face.

"You have to know that rue essence is the most symptomatic medicine for you now. It is the best nourishing product for your internal organs damaged by poison. The medicine I made is good for first aid, but when it comes to this Post-conditioning is really not as good as this most basic and traditional potion. If you don’t want to leave sequelae, you’d better just lie in bed for a few days. As for the Quidditch match, you don’t have to worry, Harry has now found McLaggen. Your substitute. I think that although his level was not as good as yours in the trial that day, he should be barely usable."

"I'm worried just because it's McLaggen." Ron seemed a little agitated, but fortunately he regained his composure after Lavender held his hand. "You, like Hermione, don't know anything about Quidditch. McLaggen doesn't have the same background as the rest of the team, and he might as well go out without a keeper—"

After ten minutes of persuasion, Ron finally agreed to stay in the hospital until he was fully recovered before being discharged.But hearing what he said, Ryan was also full of pessimism about the next Quidditch match.
