HP: I'm not going to rule the wizarding world

Draco was still very excited and said to Ariana, "The Gryffindors must have discovered what Potter and the others were hiding. Are they planning to expose them? It's a pity that Professor Snape won't let us go over to watch the fun."

It goes without saying that Farley and the others' plan worked.

Ariana showed a sly look on her face and said jokingly, "When Professor Snape was deducting points from Gryffindor, we two Slytherins were standing there. Do you think he would deduct points or not?"

There are still 5 minutes before curfew, so they are definitely out at night.

Draco knew what Ariana meant and said worriedly, "What if Professor Snape suppresses this matter? Then we still don't know what Potter and the others are hiding."

After confirming that Snape would favor Harry, Draco no longer trusted his own headmaster. He did not hate the savior as much as he seemed.

Seeing her good friend like this, Ariana probably wouldn't be able to sleep if she went back. She took Draco's hand and said, "Since you want to know, let's go back to Hagrid's Hut and take a look."

Draco said hesitantly, "But Professor Snape asked us to return to the castle."

He is essentially a good boy. Even though he doesn't trust Snape very much, he is still willing to follow his instructions.

Ariana blinked and smiled, "Have you forgotten how we got to the Room of Requirement?"

Draco's eyes lit up and he said, "Yes, we can use the invisibility spell to peek over."

If Draco could avoid being discovered and still find out what Potter and the others were hiding, he would of course ignore Snape's instructions.

Seeing her good friend happy, Ariana smiled and called him, "Let's go, young master who loves to watch the fun."

Although Draco kept up with Ariana's pace, he snorted and said, "You sound like you don't like to watch the fun, otherwise you would definitely reject me."

Ariana didn't deny it. She pulled Draco's arm and said with a smile, "Yes, I am just like the young master. I like to watch the fun. After all, we are boyfriend and girlfriend. It's normal to have the same interests and hobbies."

Chapter 182 Why is the magic power fluctuating so violently?

Outside Hagrid's room, a group of Gryffindor students were arguing about something and no one noticed the two professors approaching.

Snape's icy voice suddenly rang out, demanding sharply, "What are you all doing here?"

The group of Gryffindor students were startled and looked behind them in unison, only to find that it was not only Professor Snape but also Professor Flitwick.

The Gryffindor students' faces turned pale.

Seeing that no one spoke, Percy could only muster the courage to answer: "Professor Snape, Professor Flitwick, we didn't do anything."

He really hoped that the two professors would pretend not to see them, but unfortunately, this wish was impossible to realize, and Percy knew it himself.

Snape snorted coldly, his eyes as sharp as a hawk, and asked, "It's almost past curfew, and you have a large group of people gathered here, and you say nothing is wrong. Do you think I will believe it?"

The Gryffindor students were all a little flustered, chattering and not daring to reply.

Percy said quickly, "Let's go back now."

Snape's lips curled up into a mocking smile, and he said coldly, "It will take at least 20 minutes to get back to the castle from here. There are only 5 minutes left before curfew. How can we shorten this time?"

Suddenly remembering Draco's reminder, he added, "The curfew has indeed been moved to 11 o'clock, but the headmaster clearly stated that we must stay in the castle after 9 o'clock."

In other words, whether it is now or five minutes later, it will all be considered a night tour.

When the Gryffindor students heard Snape say that he would deduct points, they all begged for mercy.

"We swear we won't do it again. Please don't deduct points from us, professors. Gryffindor already has very few points."

"Stop deducting points from us."

Gryffindor now has only 146 points, many of which were obtained by Hermione's recent desperate efforts to answer questions. For this reason, other colleges have a much worse impression of Hermione.

In the past, I just ignored it and didn't care about her behavior of answering questions quickly. After all, we were not from the same college, so I didn't care much about her behavior of answering questions quickly. But now I think she is going a bit too far.

Looking at the students' mournful faces, Professor Flitwick felt a little soft-hearted. He suggested, "Why don't we take them back to the castle first?"

Besides being soft-hearted, it was mainly because there were so many people that it was difficult for him and Snape to handle them, especially since they were all Gryffindor students.

Snape was very perceptive and felt that this matter was not simple. He narrowed his eyes slightly and swept his gaze over everyone, finally landing on Harry.

"It's almost curfew, and more than 20 Gryffindors and the great savior are gathered here. There must be something going on. Tell me." If the problem is not solved, this arrogant Potter will definitely run around again.

Seeing this, Hagrid's face flushed with anxiety. He quickly explained, "Professors, it's really nothing. Harry and Ron just came to see me. Percy is here to take them back."

But he would never lie, and he kept looking at his own hut, putting on a defensive posture, as if he was trying to cover up his crime.

Snape sneered, his tone full of sarcasm.

"Why can't you come during the day? Coming at night is fine, but the curfew has already been moved to 11 o'clock. Do you want the great Gryffindor Headmaster to move the curfew even later for you Gryffindors?"

When the Gryffindors present heard Snape mocking Dumbledore, their faces turned unhappy, but no one else dared to speak.

Only the snarky Ron muttered, "The curfew was moved to 11 o'clock, isn't it just for the Slytherin Dueling Tournament?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Percy covered his mouth. Percy was already very helpless with this youngest brother. In this situation, why couldn't he just shut up?

He offended the Head of Slytherin and all the students who were willing to stay on curfew until 11 o'clock. What was he trying to achieve? Did he have any brains left?

Snape's face darkened, and his voice suddenly rose. He sneered, "It seems that Gryffindor has a very strong opinion of Slytherin, even going so far as to slander the Dueling Tournament in which you yourself participated."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone present changed.

In this competition now, they participate not only for the pursuit of prize money, but also to prove their strength to the outside world.

If the Gryffindors present were restricted from participating in the competition, they would be so angry that they would eat Ron.

Percy stood up again helplessly and looked at Snape with a pleading look.

"Professor Snape, individual Gryffindor students cannot represent Gryffindor as a whole. I hope the professor knows this."

Although he despised his younger brother Ron, they were blood relatives, and others would see them as one, since they were all Weasleys after all.

Snape glanced at him and said coldly, "If you had said this to me before breaking any school rules, perhaps your position would be more convincing."

At this moment, a strong magical wave surged out of the house like a surging tide, instantly attracting Snape's attention.

Besides, Hagrid's behavior just now aroused his suspicion.

Snape stared at Hagrid and asked sharply, "What's hidden in there? Why are the magical fluctuations so violent?"

As he said this, he wanted to go in and take a look. Hagrid, with cold sweat on his forehead, blocked Snape's way.

He stammered, "Nothing? Only Fang's in there."

But he looked so guilty that not only Snape but even the idiots Harry and Ron didn't believe him.

Snape's eyes revealed disdain as he sneered, "I can still tell the difference between a dog with a hint of magical animal blood and a real magical animal. If you're unwilling to open the door, then I'll have to go and get the headmaster."

Of course Hagrid didn't want Snape to enter his room because there was a dragon egg on the fire.

But he had no wand in his hand, and no matter how high the giant's magic resistance was, he could not resist the control of the powerful spell. When he tried to stop it, he was hit by Snape's binding spell.

Snape entered Hagrid's hut. There was a strange atmosphere in the room. Under the dim light, various magical creatures' items were placed in a mess.

Snape walked straight towards the place where strong magical fluctuations were emanating, and suddenly a trace of vigilance flashed in his eyes.

"It's a dragon egg." He looked at Hagrid at the door in shock.

Now that he had found the source of the problem, Snape removed Hagrid's binding spell.

Professor Flitwick followed in and saw the dragon egg. He said in disbelief, "Hagrid, you're planning to raise a dragon at Hogwarts."

Snape used a levitation spell to move the dragon egg from the fire to his front and looked at it carefully, and then a trace of anger surged in his heart.

"This is a Norwegian Ridgeback dragon egg, Hagrid. Don't tell me that as a fan of this kind of creature, you don't know how ferocious it is. And you invited so many Gryffindors to watch."

Especially since Harry was here too.

Chapter 183: Because of the 150 points deducted

Snape was so angry that he wanted to dig open Harry's head to see. The mysterious man was eyeing him covetously. He couldn't say it directly and had hinted at him several times. Why was he still running around?

He also ran to see the dangerous dragon egg. Although it was just an egg now, it could be hatched due to such strong magical fluctuations.

Hagrid quickly waved his hands and said anxiously, "I didn't invite Harry and the others to watch. It was just an accident."

He didn't want to implicate the Gryffindor students, especially Harry and Ron.

Because of the 150 points deducted, he was ostracized by his classmates. His situation has only improved a little recently because he won the duel competition.

Looking at Hagrid's blushing face, Harry felt guilty. If they hadn't stayed out late at night, the other Gryffindors wouldn't have come looking for them, and they wouldn't have been caught by Snape.

So he mustered up the courage to face Snape.

"Professor, this is all my fault. Hagrid got this dragon egg from a pub and we found it when we came to see him. I wanted to see the dragon egg, so I asked Ron to come with me. The other Gryffindors were afraid we would get into trouble and lose points, so they came to take us back."

He took all the responsibility on himself. Since he was no longer liked by others, he might as well take it all.

Snape looked at Harry coldly and said sarcastically, "So it's you who doesn't want to go back to the castle, otherwise you wouldn't have stayed so late. Or maybe that impulsive Gryffindor is also interested in this dragon egg, and you're here to see it together."

He was now so angry that he couldn't see anyone else, otherwise he wouldn't have ignored Ron who kept shrinking his neck.

In fact, the one who really wanted to see the dragon eggs was Ron. He always heard his brothers bragging about it and wanted to see the dragon eggs more so that he could brag about it to his brothers in the future.

But now he doesn't even dare to stand up and admit it.

When the Gryffindor students heard Snape question whether they wanted to stay and see the dragon eggs, they all started to explain and distance themselves from the matter.

"No, we are here to stop Potter and Weasley from making mistakes. They can't deduct any more points from Gryffindor."

I swear to God, they didn't know there were dragon eggs when they came. The argument just now was about how to deal with this matter. No one was interested in the dragon eggs, which was why they wasted so much time.

Snape said impatiently, "Come back to the castle with us now. So many people have made mistakes, and I am the Slytherin Headmaster you all hate. I really can't punish you."

He felt that what Professor Flitwick said was right. They were all Gryffindors, and with so many people, it was definitely not something the two of them could handle.

Snape was too sensitive, so in order to avoid being discovered, Ariana pulled Draco far away.

After the people left, the two of them followed them back to the castle from a distance. It was almost 12 o'clock when they returned to the Slytherin common room, and there was silence all around.

After closing the door, Draco spoke up and said, "Did you see that? That's a Norwegian Ridgeback dragon egg. It's so beautiful."

His eyes were gleaming with excitement, and it was unclear whether it was because Harry and the others were captured, or because he saw the dragon eggs.

Ariana looked at him in surprise and asked doubtfully, "Are you sure your aesthetic taste is okay? Dragon eggs can look good, too? Norwegian Ridgebacks are incredibly ugly, with a large head and short limbs. The proportions are extremely disproportionate, not to mention that the scales haven't fully grown in yet, so they're all patchy, like they have a scab."

Because she wants to study the brain, Ariana has been catching up on the types of magical beasts recently. Although she has never seen a real Norwegian Spinosaurus, the illustrations in the library have dynamic ones.

Draco retorted unconvincedly, "I was just trying to say your aesthetic taste is fine. It's a dragon, how could it not be beautiful?"

He couldn't understand how anyone could dislike dragons.

Ariana crossed her arms and asked with a half-smile, "If it wasn't a dragon, but a dog or a cat, and looked like that, would you still think it looked good?"

If it wasn't a dragon, it couldn't be that big.

Draco clearly understood what Ariana meant. He said helplessly, "Well, if it were a dog, it would definitely be a scoundrel. It's not good-looking, but it's a dragon, there's no doubt about that. It was a little ugly when it was young, but it'll be good-looking once it grows up and becomes more powerful."

He loves dragons as much as Quidditch.

Ariana tilted her head and teased, "I noticed you like big creatures. Last time on the fourth floor, you also liked that three-headed dog, just because it was big."

At that time, Draco thought it was not dangerous and wanted to keep one at home. In the end, he found out that the method of subduing it was a bit dangerous, so he gave up in order not to hurt it.

Draco thought about it for a moment and it seemed to be true.

He smiled and said, "Yes, I like tall and mighty magical animals."

Ariana raised her eyebrows slightly and said nonchalantly: "No, I found that you like very powerful objects or people. The reason you have such a good relationship with me is because I am powerful enough."

It can be said that he is the kind of person who admires the strong.

Draco's cheeks flushed slightly, and he said shyly, "It seemed like that at first, but now it's entirely because of you that I like it."

In fact, he couldn't tell whether his current liking for Ariana was because she was very strong or for some other reason. He just felt very happy to be with her.

Ariana raised the corners of her mouth, revealing a gentle smile, and said, "I know, because we have feelings for each other now, we can ignore the original reason."

That's why it is said that fate is still important between people. From the time she and Draco met until now, everything seems to be just right.

It was too late now, Ariana couldn't help but yawn and rub her eyes.

"It's getting late. Let's go back to the dormitory and take a shower and go to bed. We don't have to get up so early tomorrow," she said.

Whether studying or working, you need to combine work and rest. The most important thing for a person is good health.

Draco shook his head and objected, "No, you have to be persistent in everything you do. You've already started getting up at 6 o'clock, and you have to get up at this time from now on."

Not only was the young master frightened by his father all day long, but his father also had very strict requirements on him, which led him to develop very good study and life habits.

Ariana frowned and complained, "But lack of sleep will affect your health."

She is a person who would rather squeeze her study time than squeeze her rest time.
