And in the cage, the mouse Banban stared at the sleeping boy's strange eyes.

Ten minutes later, Harry woke up on time.

He confirmed the efficacy of the potion and finally felt relieved.

Next, we must find a way to make Dumbledore take this potion.

But for two days in a row, Harry didn't find a chance. Dumbledore locked himself in the office, not seeing any outsiders, and even the meals were delivered by the house elf.

"Can't wait any longer."

Harry put his palms into his pockets, clenched the potion bottle tightly, and his impatient gaze fell on the stone statue in front of the headmaster's office.

Without the password, he cannot enter.

Even if they entered, how would they make the principal take the potion?

At this time, the sound of the carts went from far to near.

Harry's expression changed, and he subconsciously hid in a blind spot, looking in the direction of the voice.

At the end of the promenade, a house-elf in a chef's uniform came over with a dining cart.

On the dining car was an exquisite dinner, mashed potatoes and pumpkin soup, and an open bottle of sherry.

.....

Dumbledore put down the report letter in his hand, frowned, and looked at the wide open window.

Through the window, you can see the fiery clouds in the sky, and you can see the Ministry of Magic staff flying past the protective barrier from time to time.

Right now, Hogwarts is at a critical juncture of internal and external troubles.

Inside, students rioted and went on strike, and outside, the Ministry of Magic blocked the door.

Even the greatest white wizard felt powerless in the face of such a difficult situation.

"Why did Connelly become so powerful?" Dumbledore rubbed his eyebrows, feeling a headache.

The Ministry of Magic blocked Hogwarts just to capture Sirius, which is completely different from Connelly's previous style!

Dumbledore has been thinking about the reason for Connelly's transformation. If he can find this reason, maybe the Ministry of Magic can withdraw the search warrant and return to normal life at the school.

"headmaster."

The stone statue on the wall slowly raised its head and said respectfully, "Harry Potter is here."

"Harry." Dumbledore's thoughts were disturbed, and it was a little strange: "Why did he come to me?"

Stone Statue: "He ran into the house elf who brought you meals on the road, and they were all waiting outside the door."

Dumbledore thought for a moment and sighed lowly.

He guessed why Harry came, and it was also for Sirius?

Because of Sirius, he was excluded from the school.... Dumbledore heard about it from Lupin, but he never had a chance to deal with it.

"Let him in." Dumbledore sighed softly.

soon.

Harry pushed the dining cart and walked into the office, where the house-elf was fooled away by him.

He was a little nervous and lowered his head, not daring to look at Dumbledore.

Dumbledore only thought he was wronged, his face was kinder, and he said warmly, "Harry, why are you here?"

Listening to the principal's gentle greetings.

Harry felt aggrieved. He wanted to know the answer from Dumbledore. As long as he knew the answer to why he didn't capture Sirius, he would take the initiative to admit his mistake and be willing to accept punishment.

He looked up at the tall white wizard.

"Why not let the Ministry of Magic arrest Sirius?" Harry's voice gradually rose, with a slightly aggrieved ending.

The boy vented his grievances and anger.

Dumbledore lowered his eyes.

"Harry, this matter is not as simple as you think." He said softly, "I will explain it to you when the opportunity is right."

Perfunctory, perfunctory again!

Harry lowered his head slowly, a flood of disappointment pouring out of his heart.

"I see." The boy's tone regained his calmness. He stretched out his hand and took out the wine bottle, poured the orange-red wine into the goblet, and placed it gently on the table, firm and natural.

"Professor, you'd better drink less bars." Harry pushed the glass in front of Dumbledore, put the cork into the bottle, and said calmly, "Drinking is not a good habit."

Dumbledore had no doubts.

He picked up the wine glass and said with emotion, "A lot has happened this year. If it wasn't for the paralysis of alcohol, I wouldn't even be able to sleep well."

Speaking, he took a sip of red wine and narrowed his eyes in enjoyment.

Seeing Harry still standing still, Dumbledore joked: "I won't give underage drinking, even if you look at me like that."

"Professor, I'm sorry," said Harry.

Dumbledore blinked, his expression suddenly changing.

"Snapped!"

The goblet fell to the ground and shattered instantly, and the unfinished wine penetrated and spread.

Dumbledore's body swayed. He barely held up his spirits. With his eyelids struggling, he looked at the guilty Harry Potter. At this moment, he understood everything.

"Ha...Li..." He struggled to say something, but the potion's effect was volatilized in his body, and the inescapable sleepiness was pulling his spirit. This sleepiness just wanted him to sleep well. .

The energy to take out the wand disappeared without a trace.

Seeing the esteemed Professor Dumbledore express his prayers, Harry bowed his head guiltily, remembered his responsibilities again, and said again, "I'm very sorry, please forgive me."

After speaking, he turned his head and left the office.

There was a dull sound of falling to the ground behind him.

Dinner time is over, students either go back to the dormitory together, or walk in the courtyard to digest food, while some couples sit on benches with each other, watching the dark blue curtain climb up to the sky.

"Look!"

Someone pointed to the sky and shouted in surprise.

The others looked up at the sky and were also surprised. The transparent barrier that isolated the outside world was trembling like a bubble, and then everyone heard a tiny burst of bubbles.

Snapped.

The barrier disappeared.

.....

In Hodemogg Village, Connelly-Fudge hurriedly stepped out of the tavern and looked at Hogwarts on the other side of the Black Lake.

That unsightly magical protection completely dissipated.

"It's really gone!"

The smug smile on Connelly's face disappeared for a moment. He believed that the dissipation of the protection magic was the result of Dumbledore's initiative to bow his head to him.

He laughed complacently in his heart, but maintained the calmness of the minister on his face, and gave orders to the Auror who was looking forward to it.

"Search Hogwarts, arrest Sirius!" After a pause, he added, "Don't hurt the students."

What Dumbledore said is true at all.

The Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts have a two-sided relationship, and he doesn't want to really fall out with Hogwarts.

Under the order of the minister, a large number of wizards rode on brooms and rushed into Hogwarts as if covering the sky and the earth.

At this time, Hogwarts was still in a state of ignorance.

The protective magic has been lifted.... Does this mean that the stalemate with the Ministry of Magic is over?

Even the students that Malfoy secretly fanned the flames were very confused. They were extremely dissatisfied with the closed Hogwarts, but this protective magic was lifted too suddenly, right?

Only the professors' faces changed slightly.

They looked at the sky worriedly, and at the headmaster's office, which was always quiet, not knowing what Dumbledore was thinking.

"I'm going to find the principal!"

Minerva McGonagall pursed her lips and looked solemn, and was about to rush to the principal's office.

But soon, her footsteps stopped, and her slightly shocked eyes looked into the distance. With Hogwarts at the center, hundreds of wizards in uniforms of the Ministry of Magic came riding on brooms.

There are not many of them, but it gives people a feeling of depression.

Soon, a wizard landed in front of Hogwarts.

"The Ministry of Magic is searching for the fugitive Sirius, and everyone must not leave or stop them, otherwise they will be dealt with as a cover-up crime!"

With the high-pitched announcement, a large number of Ministry of Magic staff poured into Hogwarts Castle, blocking all exits and bypassing every fearful and stiff student.

Where have the students really seen law enforcement from the Ministry of Magic, their legs are going to go weak when they see the law enforcement officers with expressionless faces.

"Professor, what should we do?"

Mrs. Pince, who was beside Professor McGonagall, asked nervously.

Now that Dumbledore doesn't come out, their core is Professor McGonagall, the vice-principal.

Professor McGonagall frowned slightly, looking at the staff of the Ministry of Magic who had already stepped into the castle, knowing that there was no way to stop this matter. If so many staff of the Ministry of Magic were to be driven out, then Hogwarts was a rebellion.

"Protect the students, I'll negotiate with them!"

Professor McGonagall said a word, then took the green skirt and strode up to meet the Auror at the head.

Auror stopped and said respectfully, "Professor McGonagall."

Professor McGonagall was very serious: "You can come in to search for the fugitives, but please don't hurt the students and create panic!"

The Auror smiled and said, "Please rest assured, Minister Fudge has already instructed us that we will never harm the students, and we will leave immediately if we catch a fugitive!"

Professor McGonagall nodded silently, grabbed Mrs. Pince, and ran towards the Forbidden Forest... The protection magic disappeared, and the animals in the Forbidden Forest might move, so she had to be vigilant.

With the permission of Professor McGonagall, the Ministry of Magic's staff is unimpeded.

They were divided into two groups, one group inspected every place in Hogwarts by area, and the other group walked into the castle with a purpose.

What's even more amazing is that the front of this group of Aurors who went deep into the castle turned out to be the expressionless Harry Potter.

Along the way, those who once pushed Harry away, all hurriedly avoided, lowered their heads, and dared not look directly at Harry.

Why did Calamity Harry stay with the Auror?

They were full of unease, and they were even more worried that Harry Potter would hate their previous actions and take revenge on them.

"Harry!"

At this moment, Hermione's unbelievable calling came from the crowd.

The Ravenclaw girl squeezed out of the crowd, looked at Harry Potter who was leading the Aurors, and looked at the direction they were heading in. It was the office of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Hermione's eyes widened instantly.

"What are you doing, Harry!" Hermione wanted to rush up and pull her friend back, but someone grabbed her arm.

Hermione turned her head, it was the headmaster with a solemn expression.

"Professor Ivan..." Hermione prayed, "Bring Harry back!"

She looked at Harry's pretended expressionless face, and felt extremely painful. She could feel the pain in Harry's heart, and she wanted to save this good friend.

Zhou Qi shook his head and looked at Harry Potter who stopped.

"Harry." He said calmly: "No matter what you do, you must have your own reasons. I just want to say that no matter where you go, there is still me and your friends here."

"Don't be blinded by hatred."

Harry Potter pretended to be expressionless, and instantly disintegrated, and the inner wall of ice also melted.

He sniffed hard, not letting himself cry.

"Professor Ivan, thank you!" Harry's voice was a little vague, and he brought the Auror behind him to the door of Lupin's office, and forcibly blew the door open.

in the office.

Lupin was a little embarrassed, and his eyes were surprised.

"Harry... who are you?"
