The Emerald at Hogwarts

Chapter 284 Dementors

The biggest thorn in Hogwarts, the person who dares to fight with the professor and arm-wrestle, is now only Ada in the whole school.Her name, her melodious voice like a wind chime, seemed to give all the students a reassurance.

The noisy and chaotic carriage fell silent for a moment, and the heads of the students all retracted into the boxes.The name of a person, the shadow of a tree, what Ida said is much more useful than Clark.

"The situation is not right, should I go to the train driver to ask about the situation?" Clark also noticed that something was wrong, and he suggested.

"Stay still and take care of the students in this carriage first." Ada shook her head and rejected Clark's proposal.The situation is unknown now, and the inside of the carriage is even darker, walking around at random is likely to be dangerous.

It was getting colder and colder in the compartment, and the white mist exhaled became more obvious.

Suddenly, the sliding doors of the train were opened!
Under the reflection of the flames, a tall figure in a cloak could be seen standing at the door of the train, so tall and big that it almost touched the ceiling.His face is completely hidden under the hood.

A hand protruded from under the cloak, gleaming gray and eerie, and seemed to be covered with slime and spots, like something rotting in water after death...

That is the Dementor, the Warden of Azkaban, the dark creature that feeds on pleasure!

The dementor hidden under the cloak slowly floated into the car.The thing took a long, slow breath and made a gurgling sound in its throat, as if it was taking in more than just the air around it.

An indescribable chill spread in the carriage, some people were trembling, some felt breathless, and some were shivering.Although the expressions are different, everyone has a common feeling - it seems that there will be no more happiness in this world!

The carriage that had just quieted down became chaotic again, with painful sobs and terrified screams.

The negative emotions of fear and sadness made the students in the boxes want to escape, but their bodies didn't listen to them at all. Some fell to the ground, and some couldn't even stand up.

Ada also felt unprecedented sadness, as if she had returned to the last moment of her life.

The snow-white igloo-like ward, the pale and dazzling lights, the blazing flames, and the boundless darkness... The dim night, the destroyed street lamps, the vicious gangsters, the black fog all over the sky, and the violent explode……

Belonging to her, not belonging to her, these painful memories came to my heart together.

Ada felt as if her body and soul had been torn apart, half of which still maintained basic reason and sobriety, while the other half was clamoring, longing for killing and the baptism of blood.

Ada really wanted to just fall asleep like this, just like before, she would be relieved after falling asleep, and would not have to think about anything after falling asleep.No pain, no fatigue, no sadness, no disappointment.

But she can't just fall asleep like this, do it again, she doesn't want to stop here.There is a group of little bean ding behind her who can only cry in despair, and she is going to open a joke shop with Fred and George, how can she stop!
Ada's body leaned against the wall, not letting herself fall because she couldn't use her strength.She raised her right hand with difficulty, and said in a low voice: "Call God to protect you!"

A silver-white Chow Chow suddenly appeared in the carriage.

The "worried face" Chow Chow usually looks naive, and its stilt-like steps are even more amused, but its well-developed muscles endow it with great strength.

The patron saint who followed Ada's call let out a roar that shook the sky.

The Chow sprinted toward the dementor, his stilted gait giving it a sense of majesty rather than comicality.

From the moment the patron saint appeared, the dementor wanted to escape, but before he could escape, the silver chow had already galloped in front of him, and even rushed towards him.

Powerful swoop!

The Chow knocked the Dementor to the ground in one fell swoop.The dementor tried to struggle, but he couldn't get rid of the patron saint's oppression.The patron saint's fleshy lips opened wide, biting directly at the neck of the dementor.

There were no screams, no blood splatters, and scenes that were not suitable for children, but the temperature in the carriage began to rise gradually, and the lost happiness returned.

At the sliding door of the train, the dementor just now had disappeared, leaving only a tattered cloak on the ground.The silver and white patron saint is patrolling his territory with his head held high.

"What... what is that?" Clark asked tremblingly, he had never seen such a terrifying creature.

Ada wiped the sweat from her forehead. She said, "Dementors, they are usually responsible for guarding Azkaban. Such creatures should not exist in this wonderful world."

The silver patron saint tiptoed all the way back to Ada from the car door. Its naive appearance formed a sharp contrast with the ferocity just now.The Chow rubbed its broad head affectionately against Ada's calf, then squatted down at Ada's feet.

"It's lucky to have you here," Clark sighed, "otherwise I really don't know how it would end..."

"Don't talk about that yet." Ada took out a few pieces of chocolate from her pocket and put them in Clark's hands.

Ada continued: "You share these with them, and then ask them who has extra chocolate, candy is also fine. I'll go ahead and have a look."

"Okay, you...be careful," Clark said, as he began to hand out the chocolates.

Ada didn't delay any longer, and walked directly to the front compartment.The silver-white Chow Chow stayed where he was and did not leave with Ada.

The Hogwarts Express stops suddenly, and dementors enter the carriage and attack the students.Ada didn't think it would be an exception when this happened, and there was never just one dementor on the train.

Of course, there must be a mission for these dementors to appear here, but the "food" in front of them made these dementors lose control.

As Ida expected, every time she entered a car, she would see terrified, panicked students, and dementors who sucked the happiness around them.Ada drove the dementors away again and again with the silvery white "mist", driving the group of evil creatures away from the train.

Meanwhile, the twins on the other end of the train were doing the same thing, two silver-white magpies chasing the dementor and pecking at it.

Although they like to play pranks and always play tricks on their classmates, Fred and George are warm people in their hearts.The two brothers drove off the dementors in their own car first, and then drove off the dementors in the nearby cars.

Angelina, Alia, and Li Qiaodan followed behind the twins, checking to see if any students were injured, and comforting the juniors in the lower grades.

This was the first time for Lixiao members to act collectively, and they didn't expect that they would catch up with such a big scene for the first time.

Outside the train control room, Ada was about to leave, and she had already confirmed her guess.The master driver stopped the train only after he was notified of the inspection, but he didn't know that it would be a dementor who inspected the train.

I don't know what the Ministry of Magic thinks, but it actually sends dementors to inspect trains full of students.

Is the Ministry of Magic absolutely confident in controlling the dementors, or are they really stupid?Even if the Ministry really thought students would hide fugitives under school robes, couldn't the Aurors be called in?Do all the people in the Law Enforcement Department eat dry food?

It's good now, let alone the fugitive from Azkaban was not caught, and instead scared the students on the train to howl, Fudge will be waiting to receive a lot of shouting letters tomorrow!

Ada complained in her heart about the pig-like behavior of the Ministry of Magic. When she looked up, she saw a strange man striding towards the control room.

The first impression of this strange man was that he was down and out, he was sickly, and he seemed to have no strength at all.Although he looked young, his light brown hair was already graying.

"You are classmate Drizzt, right? The students in those carriages just now are thanking you!" said the strange man, who was wearing a tattered wizard robe, which was covered with patches.

The strange man immediately introduced his identity. He said, "Remus Lupine, the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher."

"Hi, Professor Lupine." Ada said politely.

The new professor in front of me is this year's unlucky guy, and Ada unconsciously began to worry about him.With such a crooked appearance, can he really survive this semester?

Remus Lupine looked past Ida to the control room behind her, and Lupine asked, "So, the Dementors are here to search for Black?"

"Yes, Professor Lupine." Ada said, "Temporary inspection."

Lupine lowered his head and started rummaging through his pockets, first pulling out a wad of wrapping paper before finding what he was looking for.Lupine said, "It just so happens that there is one last piece of chocolate left, which will help you."
