Chapter 119 Capturing Dementors and Abstract Boggarts

A week after the start of the term, Professor Lu Ping's superb teaching standards have won unanimous praise from the whole school.

Regarding Neville's making Professor Boggart Snape wear women's clothes, everyone secretly applauded.

Such a price was several times more than the number of times Neville was scolded in Potions class. Professor Snape always stared at Neville with his sinister and malicious eyes.

Almost all the extra points in Defense Against the Dark Arts class were deducted by Professor Snape.

John did his homework well and gave Slytherin a lot of points every day.

His excellence was obvious to all, and Professor Snape's attitude towards him became better and better.

Heinrich is also very good in all subjects, but he is not very popular.

Except for John, he looked down on everyone else.

He exudes an aura that should not be entered by strangers, and his sick face is like a vampire. He has never been stingy about casting evil curses on those who speak ill.

Slytherin's points were also deducted because of this, but it made Slytherin secretly happy.

When a person is bullied, maybe he will resent it.

But when a group of people are bullied, they feel normal.

Heinrich was secretly known as the vampire of Slytherin, and the twins often secretly added garlic essence to him in different ways.

The smell of gunpowder between the two became more and more intense, and once they fought directly in the spell class.

Two against one, Heinrich did not lose the wind, and in the end it was Professor Flitwick who resolved the dispute between the three.

Night comes.

John quietly left the dormitory, instead of going to the Room of Requirement, he quietly left the castle.

Outside the castle, dementors roam and patrol.

John cast a disillusionment spell on himself. Although Dumbledore said that these things are useless to dementors, in fact, dementors can only perceive emotions.

Especially happiness, those things are the most delicious food for dementors.

Running Occlumency, John sealed himself up, like a steel plate, without a trace of emotion coming out, airtight.

A wandering dementor was targeted by him. John calculated the route the dementor had passed, and he set traps along the route.

The dementor hadn't been noticed yet, and was wandering around slowly.

John properly opened a slit in his brain to stop the dementor.

It smelled emotions, and after leaving Azkaban, it hadn't had a full meal for a long time, and the dementor immediately approached in John's direction.

Seeing the dementor approaching, John immediately closed his brain, and the wonderful smell disappeared. The dementor was a little puzzled, and it wandered around unwillingly.

Soon, the dementors arrived at the place where John had set the trap.

It was a box, which looked delicate and complicated, and it was just placed there like that.

The dementors approached, and there seemed to be some suspects hiding inside.

The moment I reached out to touch it, the box opened.

There was a suction force coming from the empty box, and the dementor was dragged into the box as if sucked by a vacuum cleaner.

John stepped forward to close the box, and the box had more than a dozen locks rattling and clicking, all of them locked, so that the dementors had no chance of escaping.

"Success."

With a beaming look on his face, John cast a Levitation Charm on the box.

With the box, he went back to the castle.

This is a box he specially made to catch the dementors.

After completing his purpose, John went to the Forbidden Forest, where he threw the box into the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets.

The inside of the secret room has been remodeled. Books about the soul are floating in the air, and John brushes one of them with his hand.

Flip through the pages above to find the record about the dementors.

"The structure of the dementor itself is between the soul and the body. It looks a bit like a ghost, but the ghost is not as powerful as it."

Staring at the record about dementors in the book, John touched the silver skull in the room and fell into deep thought.

"Bangdang."

There was a crashing sound in his ears, and he looked next to the box, where an old cabinet was placed.

A thought popped into his mind, if a Boggart meets a dementor, what will it become?

Going ahead, John cast the Disillusionment Charm on himself, then cast Occlumency, waving at boxes and cabinets.

There was a clicking sound from the lock of the box, and the cabinet was also opened with a clicking sound.

Almost at the same time, the dementor came out of the box, and inside the cupboard, a cloud of black smoke twisted and changed rapidly, and finally twitched a few times, turning into an extremely unlikeable black albatross.

The two parties were stunned for a moment when they met, and both had no eyes, but it gave people a feeling of staring.

Dementors roamed the room, and the Boggart seemed to be simulating something by flapping its wings.

"Isn't this imitating my patron saint?"

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and John looked at Boggart's distorted albatross figure, as if imitating his Patronus.

Coincidentally, the dementor that John caught was actually one of the few that he kicked out on the train.

Judging from the vague image of the Boggart, the Dementor also has thoughts.

John didn't want to see two things being abstracted here, so he waved his wand, and the two guys were taken back to their respective places.

After closing the box and cabinet again, John sat on the box, touched his chin, and said thoughtfully: "It's very vague, which means that the dementor's heart is not clear."

This feeling is like dementia, or it can be said that there is a problem with the soul.

The only thing that can be confirmed is that both of them have the ability similar to Legilimency.

The more he thought about it, the more complicated it became, John sighed heavily: "Oh, there is a long way to go."

To solve the soul problem in Nagini, we have to continue to study thoroughly.

Down from the box, John left the secret room.

In the following time, he would go to the secret room to study two things every day.

Time passed day by day.

9 month 19 day.

On this day, Hermione who was eating in the auditorium received a gift.

Hermione knew the owl who delivered the things, and she said in surprise, "Basil."

Harry and Ron looked up, and they saw Basil flapping her wings and descending with precision into the gaps between the various dinner plates.

Ron thought of his old owl, which would jump up and down every time it came over, and sometimes fall headlong into the bowl.

Reaching out to touch Basil's head, Hermione saw that Basil had brought a present.

After being disassembled, there is a beautiful glass ball inside, and there is a starry sky in the glass ball.

The card fell out and Ron picked it up. It was written by John.

"Happy birthday to you."

Ron didn't know why, but felt a little uncomfortable, and said sourly, "That's great, he still knows your birthday."

Hermione stared at it without hesitation, and said, "I told you about my birthday when I started school, but you didn't listen at all."

Well, Harry and Ron were a little embarrassed, thinking about it, it seemed to be the case.

Harry stared at the glass ball, wondering: "This ball is worth a lot of money, how could John have it?"

As far as Harry knew, John was of a Muggle family.

He thought about the hundred Galleons that John had lent him. How could a non-wizard family have so many Galleons?

Harry was a little skeptical in his heart, but Ron was more concerned about whether he could borrow Hermione's to copy his astronomy homework in the future.

After receiving the gift, Hermione went to John to thank her personally, and John waved his hand, saying that there is no need to be too polite between us.

"By the way, where's your cat, why didn't you bring it out?"

John thought the flat-faced cat was quite interesting, at least smarter than Tom, and its fur was fluffy and soft.

Mentioning this incident made Hermione a little sad.

Because Crookshanks is always catching Scabbers, she has to keep Crookshanks in the bedroom.

Hermione said the reason: "It wanted to catch Scabbers, which made Ron very angry, so I had to lock him in the bedroom."

"Well, it's natural for cats to catch mice, and it's no wonder Crookshanks."

John said he understood, and then he saw Tom running happily at his feet.

In Hogwarts, apart from Filch's Mrs. Norris, Tom is the freest.

Hermione really envied Tom, John thought for a while and said, "You usually go to the library, if you don't mind, I can feed the cat for you."

He won't admit that he just wants to lick Crookshanks, that round body looks good to touch.

Hermione hesitated, she wasn't sure if Crookshanks would like to spend some time in the Slytherin lounge.

In the afternoon, Hermione found John again and said sheepishly, "Crookshanks doesn't like leaving the Gryffindor lounge."

"Okay then, I have some cat strips here, you take them to it."

John felt a little regretful, he still didn't get the ugly and cute Crookshanks, and took out the cat strips and dried fish he had prepared.

Hermione stared at his little bag, which seemed a bit much.
