"Professor McGonagall, I... hello..."
He stammered a greeting to Professor McGonagall. Professor McGonagall was stunned.
She never expected Darren to appear here.
This child has always been so well-behaved and obedient, how could he have gone out at night?
"Darren, who pulled you out?"
Professor McGonagall asked angrily.
She noticed Darren's pale face and his slightly trembling body. This made her even angrier.
Who is bullying this child? Or is it a prank?
Why make this child stand here in the middle of the night?
“Teacher, professor, no one pulled me out, I mean, I… came out on my own.”
Darren's voice trembled slightly, and his emerald green eyes were beginning to mist over...
He was obviously lying.
But Professor McGonagall couldn't bear to blame him.
Good heavens, how could she bear to scold such a pitiful and well-behaved child? All she wanted to do now was give that kid who tricked Darren out a good scolding!
"So, no matter who tricked you out of here, Darren, come with me to the office now."
It's too cold here, and you're dressed so lightly. You'll catch a cold tomorrow. I don't think you want to go to the school clinic, do you?
Professor McGonagall chuckled softly.
It's obvious that all the professors know why Darren doesn't want to go to the school infirmary. Well, he sleeps for three days straight if he goes.
Nobody would dare to go there casually!
"Professor... could you wait a moment before going up?"
Please, please wait a little longer. Come up with me then, and you can punish me however you like!
He clasped his hands together, making a pleading gesture.
This made Professor McGonagall, whose mood had just improved, angry again.
"Good heavens! Child, Mr. Malfoy just said that Harry and his friends brought a dragon..."
When Professor McGonagall mentioned the word "dragon," she emphasized it, sounding utterly incredulous.
Then she continued, "You're not stuck here because of this, are you?"
Professor McGonagall asked suspiciously. Her face grew even angrier.
She is now absolutely certain that this is a prank, a way to lure Darren here.
He thought Harry had done something dangerous, so he came here to help Harry buy time.
As for Malfoy, he probably believed what others told Darren, so he thought he was being clever and wanted to complain to her.
childish!
"Darren, some things shouldn't be taken seriously. For example, do you think it's true that a dragon appeared at Hogwarts?"
“It’s true, Professor McGonagall. I saw them raising dragons with Hagrid with my own eyes. Please believe me this once.”
"Rush in now and grab Harry Potter, at least don't take away this good student who notified the professor!"
"Shut up! Malfoy, you can't keep lying! Look how scared you've made Darren! Apologize to the boy!"

Chapter 105 Harry's Father!!
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have completed your mission and obtained the Mind Healing Technique.]
Mind Healing Spell: A type of healing spell in the magical world that can heal the injuries of others.
(When healing, it generally consumes mental energy, or you can use Father Points instead. The more severe the injury, the more you need to use.) Sure!
This healing technique, which can heal others, is a skill that perfectly fits his saintly persona.
However, this also raises a question. Harry should have already given the dragon away.
I wonder if, like in the original story, he forgot the Invisibility Cloak on the rooftop and was then caught by Filch.
Malfoy never imagined that his act of betraying the enemy would lead to him being sent to solitary confinement.
And it was Filch's solitary confinement, which he hated and feared the most. Filch had just carried out his punishment last week.
Malfoy had some truly unbearable memories to recall.
This guy actually forced him to clean all the toilets in the school. He vomited many times before he finally finished the task.
Now that the punishment is finally over, he's put himself in solitary confinement again...
And he has to apologize to Darren? What did he do wrong?
Darren also felt that Malfoy was wronged, so he almost laughed out loud for Malfoy out of sadness.
However, he still obediently looked up at Professor McGonagall and said, "Professor, Malfoy didn't scare me. I'm very brave, so he doesn't need to apologize."
[Ding, Father Value +50] [Ding, Father Value +20] [Ding, Father Value +30] Huh?
Is the value of three "Holy Father" chants worthwhile?
Whose is this extra one?
And I never expected that Malfoy would be moved by him?
"Potter, Malfoy, I think you two need to give me an explanation for why you're not sleeping in bed right now, but instead here?"
Snape's cold voice came from behind them.
Darren looked even more guilty.
His green eyes instantly turned red. He looked pitiful.
“Oh, Severus, you’re too harsh! Look how frightened this child is…”
Professor McGonagall gave Snape a reproachful look.
He patted Darren on the shoulder to comfort him.
“If we don’t be stricter, they’ll just cause trouble… Malfoy! Tell me, why are you here?”
Snape's empty eyes stared at Malfoy, making Malfoy shudder.
However, he immediately became arrogant again.
Snape is their headmaster; he wouldn't be like Professor McGonagall.
"Professor, Harry Potter brought a dragon to the school... I'm here to report them!"
Malfoy shouted excitedly, believing that Snape would believe what he said.
"Yes, yes, it seems our famous Harry Potter is quite amazing..."
Minerva, Filch asked me to inform you that he just captured Harry Potter and a female student and brought them to your office.
It seems we should really give them a good talking to!
Snape glanced at Darren and noticed that he seemed startled; the blush on his face had completely faded, and he looked pitiful.
“Darren…”
Professor McGonagall also looked at Darren.
The case is solved! It was Harry who tricked Darren into coming here!
Although Harry is Darren's brother, he is also a Gryffindor student. Students from one's own house are indeed capable of doing such things.
“I should have known. The only one who could make you do something like this, Darren, is him…”
Professor McGonagall said somewhat angrily.
She stood there high above, looking more terrifying than a troll. But this terror wasn't directed at Darren.
She turned around, went upstairs very quickly, and then practically rushed into the office.
Harry and Hermione stood there in a panic.
When they saw Professor McGonagall enter, they were almost speechless with fright. And when they saw Darren behind Professor McGonagall, their hearts pounded even harder.
“Professor…it was me. I was the one who let my brother out. I was the one who lied to Malfoy, saying that the dragon my brother was raising had nothing to do with him…”
Darren offered a frantic explanation.
Harry noticed his eyes were filled with tears. [Ding, Fatherly Value +100]
[Ding, Father Value +100] [Ding, Father Value +80] [Ding, Father Value +80] [Ding, Father Value +10] Five Father Values are added to your account.
This indicated that everyone present was somewhat moved.
Although the minimum required only provided ten Father Points, Darren suspected that person was Malfoy!
Because this guy was looking at Harry with schadenfreude. Darren also noticed him mouthing "Scarface" to Harry. Uh, are you two sure you're not in a love-hate relationship?
