Malfoy glanced at him, and then…
"Except your weapons!"
The diary in Malfoy's hand flew up, and Ron caught it.
“I’m going to tell Filch that Scarface was casting a spell in the hallway…”
Malfoy was furious, and he glared angrily at Harry.
However, a voice interrupted him.
It's Mr. Filch.
His sinister face appeared beside Malfoy, startling him.
"You, what are you doing?"
"Hmph, didn't you say you were going to tell me something?"
Filch's face looked particularly grim.
"Damn Death Eaters, they're always hiding and I can't find them. If I catch them, I'll hand them all over to Dumbledore and expel them from school!"
Filch stared at Malfoy with a sinister look.
He suddenly asked, "I heard your father used to be a Death Eater, right?"
"No, my dad isn't... Hmph, don't be so smug, I'll make sure my dad fires you!"
Malfoy was terrified by Filch, but even so, he still didn't forget to hurl vicious words at Harry and Filch.
"Thanks…"
Harry wanted to thank Filch.
Filch helped him, probably only because of Darren.
However, he was interrupted by Filch.
"No need. You just saw Darren. How is he?"
Filch asked worriedly.
He looked somewhat uneasy.
Harry thought he was just worried about Darren's injuries, but then he heard Mr. Filch's voice, trembling with tears, say, "Tell him he doesn't need to be so foolish as to research potions for people like us. We're not in a hurry..."
We've all waited so many years, now all we want is for him to be safe and sound…
Harry felt a pang of guilt as he thought about Darren's sleepy appearance earlier.
Mrs. Pomfrey said that Darren seemed to have not had a break in a long time.
She got angry more because he was ruining his health.
Although the potion is very powerful, it still needs time to heal.
Time seemed to pass very quickly on him, as if he were forcibly accelerating his own time, perhaps just for those potions…
"Mrs. Pomfrey said helplessly."
Her face showed helplessness and a sigh.
She couldn't be any more critical of Darren's kindness.
We can only force him to rest more.
She truly had no other choice.
Harry's expression grew even more distressed.
He nodded and walked sadly toward the Gryffindor common room.
He finally let out a soft sigh when he returned to his dormitory.
Why do those Death Eaters always target Darren for harm?
Why are they bullying Darren like this?
Come find him if you dare!
He's the savior, but Darren isn't. Why should Darren bear all the burden?
He clenched his fist in anger and slammed it onto the bed.
Only after he hit it was a tactile sensation that pulled him back to reality.
This is?
Oh, right, that diary.
Harry always found this black diary useful.
Moreover, the name Tom Riddle always made Harry feel like it was a name he remembered from the depths of his memory.
He felt that he and this person seemed to have known each other for a long time.
Even so, he still couldn't figure out what was in the diary.
Perhaps he could try writing a diary on it?
Without hesitation, Harry took out his quill and prepared to write down what had happened that day.
But then something strange happened.
The moment his ink touched the paper, it was absorbed by the diary.
Then, a line of text appeared in front of Harry.
"Hello, I'm Tom Riddle. Are you looking for me?"
Good heavens, this diary is definitely not a simple diary.
Just like in the original story, Harry was shown by Tom Riddle what happened fifty years ago.
He rushed out of the dormitory in a panic.
He found Hermione and Ron.
"Come here quickly, I have something to tell you. Fifty years ago, it was Hagrid who opened the secret chamber!"
Harry mysteriously recounted everything Riddle had shown him.
"Hagrid?"
"Impossible. You think Hagrid is Slytherin's heir?"
Hermione and Ron could hardly believe it, but the facts were undeniable.
And Hagrid was indeed fired.
Furthermore, Hagrid's fondness for keeping large animals as pets is undeniable.
When they were in first grade, Hagrid had a dragon, although Ron's brother Charlie eventually took it away.
However, this also means that Hagrid did indeed keep this kind of animal.
Therefore, one of Hagrid's pets might actually have the ability to petrify people.
“Harry, do you remember that time before school started, when you accidentally ran into Diagon Alley… and almost scared Darren to death?”
Hermione suddenly seemed to remember something and asked in shock.
"Yes, Hagrid is in Diagon Alley too. He said he wanted to buy some medicine to get rid of carnivorous slugs."
The three of them fell silent at the same time.
Could it really be Hagrid?
Thinking about what had happened recently, they were all a little afraid to let Darren know that Hagrid was the one who caused the petrification incident.
Darren must have stared at them in astonishment, and then he would run to Hagrid for confirmation.
He will likely receive a heartbreaking answer: Hagrid was indeed the one who opened the secret room.
Of course, it's also possible that Hagrid's pet accidentally opened it.
But this will definitely make Darren sad.

Chapter 267 The Smile of a Scoundrel!
In the end, they all agreed that they shouldn't tell Darren.
Perhaps this is just a misunderstanding.
or…
Forget it.
After all, there haven't been any attacks on people since Justin's petrification incident.
And now it seems those Death Eaters are much more annoying than Hagrid's pets.
"As long as they don't reappear, just pretend you don't know... After all, those people will wake up soon."
