Chapter 242 Les: If I Don't Come up in Three Days, Please Open This Package

Harry leaned against the wall beside the corridor weakly, his emotions were very complicated: What should he do? He didn't know. He didn't know who to ask for help. He couldn't even be sure of the truth of the incident.

Logically speaking, this kind of "world-destroying" disaster has nothing to do with a young wizard like him who has just been in school for two years, but the reality is here, and this responsibility suddenly hits his shoulders like a meteorite.

Just then, footsteps came from the corridor behind Harry. He looked back and saw Daphne walking towards him with a small bag on her back. Behind her was a little girl with silver hair. Harry knew the child, she was Daphne's sister Astoria.

Harry:!

He ran to Daphne like a drowning man grabbing a life-saving straw and stopped her.

"What's the matter?" Daphne was startled by Harry's sudden appearance. She subconsciously took a step back and distanced herself from Harry before asking him why he came.

Harry immediately told Daphne and her sister the news he heard from the snake.

"Can I ask where you heard this rumor from?" After listening to what Harry said, Daphne's first reaction was also questioning.

After careful consideration, Harry decided to tell Daphne that he could speak Parseltongue, because she was trustworthy.

"You are actually a Parseltongue?!" The fact that Harry knew Parseltongue did shock Daphne. But she could look at this talent with a normal mentality. Let's not talk about the distant past, didn't Les and Astoria, who she was most familiar with, talk to snakes? Maybe Harry's ancestors had a marriage with a wizard who knew Parseltongue, and then passed on this talent to him.

But considering that the news was brought by a snake, the credibility was greatly increased.

Daphne decided to discuss it with Les.

For information related to snakes, Les must be found!

And if what the snake said was true, then Les should be asked to come forward for this kind of thing, after all, it was a disaster of "devouring the world"!

"Okay, then I'll wait for you in the hall!" Seeing that Daphne and the others were willing to help, Harry's eyes lit up all of a sudden.

The strength of the Daphne sisters was quite good, and with the addition of Les, all the reliable students of the entire Slytherin College were involved, and Harry felt that things had taken a turn for the better.

So, Harry and the Greengrass sisters separated for a short time. One was on standby, and the other two went to get help.

When they returned to the Slytherin common room, the lounge was empty. Daphne found that Les had not rested yet, and was curled up by the fireplace in the lounge reading a book alone. In addition to the book, there was an egg-sized crystal ball on the table.

What she didn't notice was that the hair behind Les's head was changing color little by little, and the skin on his palm was gradually becoming smooth.

"Les, great! There is something..." Daphne quickly told Les about the monsters in the Forbidden Forest.

"There is such a thing? The snakes in the castle are indeed agitated recently..." After listening to Daphne, Les threw the book in his hand aside and squinted his eyes, as if weighing the pros and cons. In the end, he made a decision.

"Well, without further ado, I'll go with you and investigate the secrets in the spider's nest."

After getting Les's answer, Daphne and Astoria were excited. In their opinion, with Les out, any evil creature would be easy to catch?

Suddenly, a red flash came out of the crystal ball that Les placed on the table, and Les's face suddenly became serious.

He patted the crystal ball, and Ravenclaw's voice came out from it: "Les Lint, I need your help, the seal shows signs of being broken, come to the dungeon immediately, I'll wait for you here."

Daphne's face changed instantly. She knew that there was a large group of extremely dangerous dark creatures sealed under the school's dungeon. Once the seal was shaken, the impact would be extremely terrifying.

After hearing Ravenclaw's words, Les didn't say anything else. He tidied his wizard robes, took out a handkerchief, and wiped his wand.

After doing all this, he said to Daphne in a very gentle tone: "Sorry, I encountered something here, I'm afraid I can't go to the Forbidden Forest with you."

Daphne suddenly became nervous, and Astoria also felt that something seemed to be wrong.

"Les, you..." Daphne wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Les.

"Listen, time is tight, I won't say much, you take this." Les took off the package he had been carrying from his waist and handed it to Daphne.

Daphne:? ! !

"Three days later, if I don't come out of the dungeon, you and Astoria will leave Hogwarts, leave Britain, and go east. Of course, you can cross the sea to the United States, the things in the package are enough for you-"

At this point, Les seemed to remember something and smiled bitterly: "Forget that you are the children of the Greengrass family, then it's up to you, but you must leave Britain as soon as possible. The things in the package are still valuable, so I'll give them to you."

Daphne felt as if her head was hit hard by something.

"No, this..." She was stunned and at a loss.

Astoria took a step forward, pushed her sister aside, and grabbed Les' sleeve with her hand.

"Take us with you, we can help too." Her eyes were very firm. No matter how many difficulties and obstacles there were ahead, she would follow Les and fight with him to the end.

"Yes, take us with you, we are very strong." Daphne also woke up and immediately pulled Les' other sleeve, telling him that it would be fine even if he took them with him as a shield to block the spell.

A trace of helplessness appeared on Les' face. He shook his head and firmly pulled the sleeve out of Daphne and Astoria's hands.

Seeing that she couldn't help, Daphne's eyes were full of disappointment. She regretted why she didn't practice spells harder. If she was stronger, could she help Les?

Astoria also pursed her lips tightly, with unwillingness written all over her face.

Les ignored them and walked towards the exit of the lounge.

After the door opened, he remembered something and turned to the two and said, "By the way, the monster in the Forbidden Forest is quite suspicious. I suspect it is related to the change of the seal - maybe it is something that escaped from the seal. You two go and help me investigate. If you can deal with it, it will be a great help."

Daphne, Astoria:!
