"I remember someone going to the library to pursue knowledge, wisdom and power? Why are you staying here now?" Pansy said in a strange voice. Teana Novel says
"Oh, I see." Malfoy was about to speak but was interrupted by Pansy's soliloquy.
"When you told a story, a supporting character said: 'Every woman is a book', right?"
"Looks like you've already rummaged through that mud... Hermione, haven't you?" Pansy wanted to say the insulting words, but stopped abruptly for some reason.
"Pansy!"
"Draco, you are disgusting." Pansy ignored him, turned and left on her own, but her shoulders trembled slightly, revealing her mood, and soon Pansy disappeared from Malfoy's sight .
"It looks like it's not a joke this time." Malfoy couldn't help thinking. "Let's explain to her after she calms down." He was thinking about how to talk to Pansy later. Malfoy also quickened his pace towards the dining room.
A few minutes later, Malfoy stepped into the dining room. A sweet smell of roasted pumpkin crept into his nostrils.
A thousand bats fluttered across the walls and ceiling, and a thousand more hovered over the table like low black clouds, flickering the flames of the candles in the belly of the pumpkin. Delicacy pops up on golden plates, just like at the back-to-school feast.
"The layout is really good." Malfoy looked at the layout of the restaurant.
Scanning around, Malfoy didn't see Pansy, but saw Hermione, Harry and Ron talking happily at the table. Ron and Harry seemed very excited, holding candies from Honeydukes.
"Hermione, you're so cool!" said Ron. "My brothers always won't let me go. I know they will find a way to sneak in. But they just don't take me." Incidentally, he also complained about Fred and George.
Harry followed suit a few times.
Sensing Malfoy's gaze, Hermione secretly gave him an "ok" gesture, indicating that this has been completely resolved, and smiled triumphantly.
"Your boat of friendship has set sail again, but my giant ship is about to sink." Looking at the smiling faces of the three and Hermione, Malfoy couldn't help but think of his current situation.
"Where did it go?" Malfoy always felt that he seemed to overlook something. "The little girl probably won't let go of these foods."
Malfoy picked up a pumpkin pie and was about to fill his stomach, when Professor Quirrell suddenly rushed into the dining room, with his big scarf on his head and a look of horror on his face. Everyone stared at him as he walked over to Professor Dumbledore's chair, leaned over the table, and gasped, "The troll—in the dungeon—thought you should know."
After speaking, he fell to the floor and passed out.
"Damn it." Malfoy suddenly realized something, cursed, and immediately got up and rushed out of the restaurant.
He finally knew what he had overlooked.
There was a sudden chaos in the restaurant. Professor Dumbledore had to make several piercing pyrotechnic explosions from the tip of his wand before everyone fell silent.
"Prefect," he said in a low voice, "lead the students of your college to the dormitory immediately!"
Percy, of course, knew it well.
"Come with me! Don't stray, first-years! You don't have to fear any trolls as long as you do what I tell you! Now, stay close behind me. Get out of the way, first-years pass! Excuse me, I'm a prefect!"
"How could a troll get in?" Harry asked as they went up the stairs.
"Don't ask me, trolls must be pretty darn stupid," said Ron. "Maybe Peeves put it in there, to make Hallow's Eve fun."
"What is he doing out there now?" Hermione was the only one who noticed that something seemed wrong with Draco's reaction.
"Where are you, Pansy? Pansy?" The hallway was quiet except for Malfoy's shouts.
Malfoy clenched his fists tightly, revealing his nervousness. He thought he was a butterfly flapping his wings to change the course, but he didn't think that maybe he was just paint, poured into the long river of time, but diluted by one tributary after another, so that it lost its effect.
"Pansy shouldn't be in the women's room now, because those two are enjoying themselves in the dining room." Malfoy's thoughts were spinning.
"Then act first. If you find the troll, you'll be fine." Malfoy had full confidence in his current strength.
"Over here." Malfoy suddenly smelled a stench, a mixture of smelly socks and public toilets that were never cleaned. He followed the scent all the way.
"Found you." At the end of a passage on the left, a huge creature was walking with its back to him. It was impossible not to notice him with low grunts and the sound of huge feet dragging on the ground.
While Malfoy was breathing a sigh of relief, he glanced out of the corner of his eye, and his heart couldn't help but suspend again. He saw two legs sticking out from under the statue of a soldier beside the corridor, which seemed to be trembling.
"Flashing fluorescent light!" He had to attract the troll's attention first.
The plan was successful, and the troll was attracted by the light source and turned around. It was a terrifying sight. It was twelve feet tall, with dull, granite-gray skin, a huge, clumsy body like a huge heap of boulders, with a small head the size of a cocoa bean. Its short legs were thick as tree stumps, and beneath them were large, flat, calloused feet. The stench from it was disgusting. It held a thick wooden stick in its hand, and because of its long arms, the wooden stick dragged on the ground.
Malfoy walked slowly towards the troll. Suddenly, he raised his wand.
"Break into pieces!"
A crimson light shot from Malfoy's wand. Fly straight to the troll.
The seemingly bloated troll has extraordinary agility and intuition. With a subconscious action, the troll turned the stick in his hand into a scapegoat. A pile of sawdust slowly slipped from the troll's hand.
"I'm lucky." Malfoy laughed at himself, but his subordinates were not idle either.
"All petrified!" Another curse flew towards the troll. This time the troll did not continue the good luck of last time. Immediately unable to move. Only one thick nostril is left to breathe out.
"Let's leave the rest to the professors." Malfoy thought, and walked behind the statue.
"Pansy, are you okay?" Malfoy asked softly. However no response was received.
Malfoy moved closer.
Looking down, Malfoy was startled.
The girl in front of him was not Pansy, she looked a year or two older than Malfoy. Black eyes, long shawl, handsome appearance. Because of being frightened by the giant monster, he seemed a little panicked, which made him even more charming.
"Compatriots from another world." Malfoy quickly came to his senses. "I think it's all right," Malfoy reassured softly.
"The professors will be here soon," Malfoy continued. Even if it wasn't for Pansy, he wouldn't be able to leave a woman who was too frightened by a troll before, that's not a gentleman's behavior. Besides, this girl reminded him of his homeland.
"Thank you." The girl thanked softly. "My name is Qiu Zhang. You are Draco in the first year, right? I often heard rumors about you in our college. You really deserved your reputation. You subdued the troll with ease." Qiu Zhang blushed a little. It was a bit embarrassing to be rescued by a junior student who was younger than him.
"Small tricks are nothing to worry about." A Chinese idiom suddenly popped out of Malfoy's mouth.
Qiu Zhang looked at Malfoy in surprise, "You can speak Chinese?"
"Of course, I admire Chinese culture the most." Malfoy nodded.
Qiu Zhang seemed a little excited. Meeting someone who understands his native language in a foreign country is enough to make people feel cordial. The slight sense of strangeness and alienation before suddenly disappeared.
The two chatted for a while, waiting for the arrival of the professors, during which Malfoy threw a few short jokes in Chinese, which made Qiu Zhang cover his mouth and chuckle.
"You look much funnier than the rumors say." Qiu Zhang praised, and then added in his heart: "You're also much handsomer."
"Hehe." Malfoy laughed a few times, obviously remembering the scene where Pansy kept saying that he was boring.
"Can you help me up?" Qiu Zhang asked softly.
"Very happy." Malfoy bent down and held out his hand, gently shaking Qiu Zhang's soft little hand. With a slight upward force on the arm, Qiu Zhang was pulled up from the ground.
"Yeah." Maybe it's because he's been sitting on the ground for a long time. After Malfoy let go of his hand, Qiu Zhang didn't stand still, and leaned on Malfoy's shoulder again. Seemingly realizing that he was too close to the man, Qiu Zhang exclaimed, his face blushing all over.
But Malfoy was looking at the nose, looking at the heart, staring at the empty aisle without squinting.
"It's back to normal." Then Malfoy said a spell on Cho Chang's calf.
"How does it feel?"
"It's much better now." Qiu Zhang nodded, and slowly let go of Malfoy. The flush just now was faintly visible on the face, I don't know if it was because of shyness or something else.
At this moment, Malfoy heard several hurried footsteps in the corridor.
"Professor, I saw him walking this way just now." A familiar voice came.
"He'll be fine? Right?" Another voice was equally familiar to Malfoy.
"Child, calm down, he'll be fine." Professor McGonagall comforted the little girl beside him.
Several people were getting closer and closer, Professor McGonagall was at the front, Snape followed closely behind, and finally Quirrell hurried over, with two girls beside Professor McGonagall.
"Mr. Draco, I think you need to give me an explanation." Professor McGonagall pushed his glasses, his voice was cold and emotionless.
Snape approached the troll to look at it, and then gave a comment: "The perfect petrification spell, as expected of my student." This was obviously beginning to protect.
As for Quirrell, he yelled in fear when he saw the giant monster, and fell to the ground, clutching his forehead and chest and trembling.
"Professor, I just took care of a giant monster in the corridor. Do you need any explanation?" Malfoy said lightly.
"That's not what Hermione told me. She said she just saw you running this way from the restaurant." Professor McGonagall's tone was still cold.
"This demolition is too fast." Malfoy's heart was a little broken, because at this moment he saw Pansy with red eyes looking at him worriedly.
"I think I can guess where the plot is going, so I'm the one who needs to be rescued?" Malfoy smiled helplessly.
"Well, Professor, I was wrong." Malfoy bowed his head in apology.
"Ten points from Slytherin." Professor McGonagall delivered his punishment.
"It's just for breaking the rules for my classmates." Professor McGonagall patted Pansy's head while speaking. "And I also fought against the giant monster alone. It seems that I also helped a classmate." Professor McGonagall glanced at Qiu Zhang and said, his tone softened. "Twenty points for Slytheringa, no less."
Malfoy breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly finding the old woman cute.
"Okay, the students are enjoying the Halloween dinner, and you should go back as soon as possible. Also, I will report this matter to Professor Dumbledore." Professor McGonagall turned and left after saying this last sentence. As for the troll, Snape continued to deal with it.
Then comes the most difficult moment for Malfoy.
"Who is this woman?" After Professor McGonagall left, Pansy pointed at Qiu Zhang and stared at Malfoy. Obviously, after worrying, it's time to raise the teacher and question the crime.
"What a headache." Malfoy stroked his forehead, obviously thinking about how to answer this little jealous jar.
