"I'm fine, Professor McGonagall," Harry said hastily.
"Oh, come over here, poor boy." Professor McGonagall wrapped an arm around Harry.
She took out her wand and pointed it at Harry, and the water on Harry's clothes was instantly removed. After a moment's thought, Professor McGonagall helped Professor Leddy clean the water off his clothes as well.
"Thank you, Professor McGonagall." Professor Leddy acted like a good boy.
Although Professor Leddy had been Professor McGonagall's student before, Professor McGonagall didn't think he was cute at all.
"Go on, what happened after that?" Professor McGonagall pursued.
Professor Leddy shrugged his shoulders and explained, "That person used a killing curse at first sight ..."
Hearing these words, even though she knew that Professor Leddy and Harry were both fine, Professor McGonagall still felt her heart being gripped.
Professor Leddy continued, "Harry and I jumped off the bridge and swam to the shore. Just as we came out of the water, we met Mr Collins and Miss Granger."
"Well ... I should mention that they were sitting on a bench watching the sunset. I'm sorry, Mr Collins, Miss Granger, Harry and I ruined your date."
Andy spread his hands, indicating that he didn't care.
Hermione blushed slightly and said quickly, "Your safety is most important."
"Leddy!" Professor McGonagall was a little disgruntled.
Professor Leddy winked at Andy before continuing, "The black-robed man chased after us as well, and Mr Collins used a Patronus charm to attract the other party's attention before defeating him with a blasting curse."
"He fell into the water. I went into the water and chased him for a while, but unfortunately, he escaped using the Portkey."
Harry quickly said, "I don't blame you, Professor Leddy."
After hearing the whole story, Professor McGonagall's face had become completely solemn.
Since Professor Leddy could think that there was an insider in the castle, Professor McGonagall could naturally think of it as well.
"Professor Leddy, Harry, you've just come out of the cold water, I think you should go to the school's hospital wing first to have a cup of Pepperup Potion."
"Mr Collins, and Miss Granger, you two were very brave as well, fifty points will be added to the Ravenclaw for that."
With that said, Professor McGonagall turned to Snape, "Severus, what do you think?"
Harry looked at Snape as well.
Although there was no proof, he suspected that the inside man in the castle was Snape.
Snape looked at Harry with a sneer that nearly pissed Harry off.
"The black-robed man dared to come to Hogwarts to cause trouble, he should know that Dumbledore is not in the castle at the moment."
Snape regained his expressionless face as he said slowly, "But this is something only a few of us know about."
"There is another possibility though ..."
"If Dumbledore left Hogwarts to investigate a certain dark wizard group, then it's also possible that the other party knows Dumbledore's whereabouts."
Harry was clearly exasperated at this, and he felt that this was Snape's way of shrugging it off.
But Professor McGonagall clearly believed Snape's words.
The professors in the castle had been working together with her for over a decade, and Professor McGonagall really didn't want to suspect that there was a mole in the castle.
"You're right, Severus!"
Professor McGonagall said in a deep voice, "What exactly is Albus investigating and luring people to Hogwarts? Is the opponent targeting Mr Potter ... a remnant of the Death Eaters?"
Professor Leddy said, "That black-robed man does seem like a Death Eater."
"Alright! All that needs to be said has been said."
"Harry, it's time for us to go to the school's hospital wing for our medication."
After saying that, Professor Leddy pushed Harry towards the school's hospital wing.
"Professor Leddy ...," Harry said a little reluctantly.
Professor Leddy leaned over to Harry's ear and whispered a warning, "You're being too impulsive, Harry. It's best not to speak rashly or show hostility until you have proof, that will only alert your enemies."
"If you suspect someone of something, then secretly look for evidence and strike him a fatal blow!"
Seeing that Professor Leddy and Harry had walked away, Andy shrugged and said, "Professor, Hermione and I are going back to rest as well."
"Sleep well, Mr Collins, Miss Granger." Professor McGonagall smiled and nodded.
"You too," Andy said.
"Professor McGonagall, Professor Snape, goodbye!" Hermione waved.
As he passed Snape, Andy even gave him a special look, and Snape looked right back.
Then ...
Snape then initiated a Legilimency on Andy.
Crap!
Snape, this old sod, doesn't talk about martial virtues ... Bah! Don't practice magic virtue!
Fortunately, Andy had used the Occlumency to empty his brain beforehand, or else he would have really fallen victim to Snape's action.
Snape froze for a moment, he thought that Andy looked at him to pass on some important information.
After nodding his head at Andy without a trace, Snape turned his head as if nothing had happened.
Andy: "..."
***
Once they got up to the seventh floor, Hermione suddenly spoke, "Andy!"
After saying this, Hermione signalled Andy with her eyes: there was something she wanted to say.
"Do you want to go to the Astronomy Tower to look at the stars?"
Andy laughed, "It's a little early, we could stay a little longer."
"It's Monday, and at this hour ... there's going to be an astronomy class soon," Hermione said helplessly.
Okay!
Andy spread his hands and said, "Then let's go to the Room of Requirement."
Since the requirement used to open the Room of Requirement was 'a room where you can talk and chat', when Andy and Hermione pushed open the door of the Room of Requirement, what they saw was a luxurious conference room.
"Looks pretty nice," Andy commented.
"Andy!"
Hermione said with a straight face as she found a chair and sat down, "Who do you think that black-robed man is?"
"Hm?" Andy froze, "Did you spot something?"
Hermione nodded, "If that man is a Death Eater as well, then that means Voldemort has gathered quite a few."
Andy thought for a moment before asking, "What do you think Dumbledore and Snape's plan is? Or rather, what is their purpose?"
Because it was not his matter of concern, Andy had not previously considered this matter.
Although he was suddenly caught in the middle of trouble, although he was helpless, it was good that he still had Professor Leddy to carry the blame. Snape could just mention Professor Leddy when reporting to Voldemort.
Andy could pull back.
However, just in case, coupled with Hermione asking about it, Andy still planned to analyse it properly, or at least get a clear picture of what happened.
Without waiting for Hermione to answer, Andy continued, "In terms of purpose, Voldemort actually has only one purpose, and that is resurrection."
"But he didn't have the manpower and didn't want to give up Snape's identity as a professor, so that's why he asked Snape to attack Azkaban and free a Death Eater."
"So theoretically, Voldemort is unlikely to have much manpower."
