"Are you two feeling a little unwell?" Lycos coughed lightly and reminded.

"No." Ron said blankly before he could react.

"I'll ask again, are you feeling unwell somewhere?" Lycos said in a long tone, emphasizing each word.

"What are you doing, Lecos?" Draco's attention was drawn away by Lecos, and he turned to look at him in confusion.

At the same time, Harry suddenly noticed Lecos's abnormal behavior and realized that he was giving them a hint.

He suddenly realized that the time for Polyjuice Potion was almost up.

"My stomach feels uncomfortable, I need to leave first!"

Harry stopped talking, grabbed Ron's arm, pulled him up from the sofa, and ran to the door of the common room.

Ron finally realized the problem and ran wildly after Harry.

They rushed towards the stone wall and then sprinted down the corridor, hoping that Draco Malfoy didn't notice anything.

Both men could feel their feet slipping in Crabbe and Goyle's oversized shoes, their bodies shrinking, and they had to hold up their clothes to prevent stepping on their trouser legs.

When the two ran to the intersection of the spiral staircase, they ran into a tall, thin and beautiful senior girl.

Harry immediately remembered that this girl often wore a prefect badge and patrolled the Hogwarts Express. He also saw her helping the headmaster distribute various documents on a daily basis...

This is Slytherin Prefect, Gemma Farley.

The two were horrified, fearing that the Slytherin prefect would discover that they were secretly using Polyjuice Potion.

Ron pulled Crabbe's large coat over his head, hiding himself like a tortoise, deceiving himself.

Harry was not as stupid as him. He just covered his scar, lowered his head and walked out, hoping that the prefect didn't notice the two of them breaking into the Slytherin common room.

"Harry, Ron?" Gemma Farley exclaimed in surprise.

The two little wizards felt nervous, thinking that their identities had been discovered... Then, Harry suddenly realized that the Slytherin prefect was not familiar with them and would not call them by their names directly, right?

so……

"Hermione?" Harry and Ron asked in unison.

"Yes, I didn't expect you could recognize me." Hermione nodded slightly while pretending to be Gemma Farley.

"Wait...how did you get a prefect's hair?" Ron asked in surprise, pulling his face out of Crabbe's clothes.

Harry gave her a curious look as well, nodding in agreement.

"I was wandering around outside for ages before I finally spotted a Slytherin girl... Prefect Gemma Farley," Hermione explained. "I went up to her and complimented her on how smooth her hair was, wondering if she had used some kind of straightening magic."

"So she was fooled by you?" Ron said incredulously. "Is a Slytherin prefect so easily fooled?"

"It's not that simple!" Hermione glared at her unhappily.

But Hermione's face was still Gemma Farley's, and the gaze of a senior prefect still made Ron feel a little scared, so he subconsciously shrank his neck.

"I even got the autographed photo Professor Lockhart gave me... I got it because I answered the professor's questions with full marks!" Hermione said with a pained look on her face. "It was because of the autographed photo that Prefect Farley agreed to teach me the magic of smoothing hair."

"So, while I was learning magic, I took the opportunity to touch her hair and found a loose strand. It was because of this that I was delayed for so long..."

"But won't she come back suddenly?" Harry asked worriedly. "What would happen if you two bump into each other?"

"No." Hermione shook her head. "I told her that Professor Lockhart needed someone to help write fan letters..."

"Prefect Farley was not interested at first, but when I mentioned that she might have seen her roommate's letter from there, her expression immediately changed and she walked happily towards Professor Lockhart's office."

After chattering for a long time, Hermione finally thought of the main thing: "By the way, did you ask anything?"

"I got some information, but Malfoy said he didn't know who the heir was either," Harry said. "Hermione, you don't have much time. We can discuss the rest when we get back."

"Now, we need you to ask one more question..."

"What's the problem?" Hermione asked.

"We heard from Malfoy that a goblin has captured Lucius Malfoy," said Harry. "He said the goblin might also know something about the Chamber of Secrets. Hermione, you'd better get this out of Malfoy."

……

In the Slytherin common room.

Lycos could tell almost immediately that Gemma Farley was Hermione in disguise.

After all, the original Gemma Farley was not only the heir to the Farley family, one of the Twenty-Eight Sacred Clans, but also a Slytherin prefect. She might even be elected as the head girl next year.

Such students are proud and confident. They will not be like Hermione, who hunches her shoulders, tilts her neck slightly forward, and looks frightened.

"It's a pity that Granger, who turned into a cat, is gone..."

Thinking of this, Lycos sighed.

According to the original book, Hermione picked up a hair of Millicent Bulstrode in the Dueling Club, wanting to transform into Millicent and sneak into the Slytherin common room.

However, she didn't realize that the hair actually came from Millicent's pet cat.

So, after drinking the polyjuice potion made from cat hair, Hermione turned into a "cat girl" with cat whiskers, a cat face and a cat tail.

Lecos really wanted to see what the cat girl formed by magic looked like, but unfortunately, due to the delay in the appearance of the basilisk, Lockhart had not yet thought of setting up a duel club.

Without the Dueling Club, there would naturally be no duel between Hermione and Millicent, and no story of Hermione using cat hair to turn into a cat girl...

"What are you thinking about?" Cassandra suddenly leaned close to Lycos' ear and asked in a low voice with a teasing smile on her lips.

"Ahem...I didn't think anything." Lycos quickly threw the thought out of his mind and denied it decisively.

"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking about. Aren't you thinking about what a witch would look like if she turned into a cat?" Cassandra put her lips close to Lycos' ear, and her hot breath almost blew into his cochlea, making the tip of his ear feel hot.

"If you really want to see it... maybe I can give it a try?"

Lycos shuddered all over.

Damn, who can handle this? How can this little witch be so good?

He glanced at Cassandra and wanted to ask, "Really?"

But seeing the increasingly dangerous look in Cassandra's green eyes, Lycos had to suppress the idea of ​​giving it a try.

"Thank you, I'm a serious person." He said seriously.

"Tsk, who would believe that?" Cassandra curled her lips, leaned her face on Lycos' shoulder and didn't move.

Lycos's whole body was stiff.

Fortunately, the voice of the witch in front of them diverted their attention.

"Hello." Hermione, using the identity of Gemma Farley, greeted Lecos and Draco with forced calmness.

"Hello, Prefect Farley." Draco didn't realize the problem at all and replied casually, "Did you see Crabbe and Goyle on the road just now..."

"I don't know how much they ate at the banquet tonight, but they suddenly had stomach upsets. I didn't see them go back to the dormitory to use the restroom, so maybe they're in the school infirmary now?"

Gemma Farley's expression froze noticeably.

"I didn't see it. Maybe I just missed it?" Hermione said, feigning composure and giving an awkward laugh. "It's no wonder they both eat so much all day that they get stomach upset."

"Strange, why is Prefect Farley so talkative today?" Draco gave her a puzzled look. "Why are you all acting so strangely today? Are you hiding something from me?"

"Ah..." Hermione panicked, her mind racing. "Maybe today is Christmas, so everyone is happier?"

"Maybe." Draco shook his head noncommittally.

"Draco, how is your father doing lately?" Hermione asked, choosing her words carefully.

"That's just the way it is." Draco spread his hands. "He was captured by a goblin and hasn't been rescued yet... I thought Dumbledore was so powerful, but in the end he still couldn't deal with that goblin named Lanlock."

"Lanlock? Even Dumbledore couldn't handle him. Is that goblin so powerful?" Hermione opened her mouth wide.

"Who says they aren't?" Draco sighed deeply. "I always thought goblins were similar to house-elves, serving wizards. Who would have thought their rebellion would never stop?"

"You mean this time it's also... a goblin rebellion?" Hermione's questioning never stopped.

The only memories she had of goblin rebellions were from the History of Magic textbook, and she had never imagined that a goblin rebellion would still happen today.

"Yeah, don't you know?" Draco muttered secretly, "Didn't I tell you?"

Hermione realized something was wrong and quickly changed the subject: "Then do you know when these goblins appeared? A major rebellion wouldn't just be about capturing your father, right?"

"Theoretically, there shouldn't be just one, but..."

Before Draco could finish his words, Lycos, who was watching the show nearby, suddenly fixed his eyes.

He suddenly realized a problem -

This year's goblin rebellion and the capture of Lucius Malfoy were certainly not their first actions. There must have been an even more outrageous action before this! That action almost destroyed the entire younger generation of the British wizarding world!

Lycos thought of the first day of school when he took the Hogwarts Express to school, and the boundless flames enveloped the entire train.

In the end, it was thanks to Cassandra's All Curses End and Lykos's massive fire shield that they barely managed to wait for Dumbledore to arrive, preventing further casualties.

At that time, he was very puzzled as to who would be so unscrupulous as to directly cut off the future of the entire magical world.

Even when a huge Dark Mark rose in the sky later, Lycos did not think that it was done by the Death Eaters... After all, the Death Eaters' children also went to school at Hogwarts, and they also needed a constant supply of fresh blood as a supplement.

Perhaps only goblins, because they do not belong to the same species, would use such a vicious and cruel plan to wipe out the younger generation of Hogwarts!

As for what Draco and Hermione said next, Lecos no longer cared.

He suddenly realized that this goblin rebellion was more dangerous than any previous rebellion... He had never heard of any rebellious goblin wanting to attack all the young wizards in Hogwarts.

The goblin named Lanlock is probably aiming for more than just the goblin's status in the magic world!

……

The Christmas holidays are over soon.

One day, when Lycos walked out of his dormitory, he suddenly saw a small group of people gathered around the bulletin board in the common room, reading the words on a piece of parchment that had just been nailed up.

"They're starting a dueling club!" Draco said excitedly. "The first meeting is tonight. I've been wanting to learn more about dueling for a while now, and I've learned quite a bit at home. Come see me demonstrate!"

Lycos glanced at the notice board in surprise.

He had thought Lockhart had completely forgotten about the matter and was ready to come up with something new... Unfortunately, the Dueling Club arrived late.

"Lex, do you want to join?" Draco asked quietly, "With your strength, you should be able to defeat everyone in Hogwarts, right?"

"That's not the case." Lycos smiled modestly.

But he also felt that it would be no big deal to go and take a look.

Although Lockhart's level is not very good, at least the so-called "assistant" of the dueling club, Professor Snape, can really teach the young wizards how to duel.
