NFBE Chapter 118 Chase
Chapter 118 Chase
Alaia struggled on Newt's shoulder, but how could she break free? Newt carried magical creatures every day. She could only lie on his shoulder and wrap the scarf around her neck, trying to comfort him that he was really fine.
Just then they met James Sirius and the others who were out looking for Peter. They saw Peter being carried and thought he was injured. They shouted and rushed to his side, grabbing her arms and legs.
"Peter! You're hurt!"
"Where did you go last night? Why didn't you tell us?" James didn't want to question Peter, but he couldn't control his desire to know the truth.
"Maybe we should send her to the hospital wing as soon as possible. Mrs. Pomfrey will cure her." Lupin was the calmest one and proposed the best solution at the moment. Although Newt didn't really want to do this, he just wanted to monopolize Peter's rare "vulnerability" and dependence.
But there was no way James and the others would let him deal with Peter's injuries alone, so he had to silently hug Peter tightly, changing the position so that only he could see his face, with his face resting on his chest.
"Well, let's go quickly."
"No, that's not necessary!" Alaia was almost embarrassed. A group of people surrounded her and went to the hospital wing to treat the "hickey"? Would she become the laughing stock of everyone? She really couldn't think of how to explain the strawberry mark on her neck to Mrs. Pomfrey.
Whenever Alaia thought of them asking Mrs. Pomfrey about her "illness" with serious faces and expressions of seeking the truth, she wanted to find a hole to crawl into. A hole? Oh, she could also turn into a hamster and crawl into the hole.
Alaiya did what she said. While there were few people around, she quickly transformed herself, stepped on Newt's head and climbed up a pillar nearby. She disappeared from everyone's sight amid everyone's exclamations.
For the first time, Alayya felt the convenience of her Animagus being a hamster. Fortunately, she was agile enough and hid successfully.
All she could hear was James's painful wail. If she didn't know, she would have thought she was dead! Sirius quickly told Lupin to guard the sewer entrance. He really knew her! Alaia blinked and hid in the corner between the ceiling and the marble column, looking down. Newt was staring at her direction intently, and muttering something to the Niffler in his arms.
Was he going to send Sniff to capture her? When Alayya thought of this possibility, she took the risk and crawled along the narrow marble carving line on the ceiling. She didn't know where it would lead to.
However, she quickly left those noisy guys and saw a familiar figure, little Barty Crouch. He seemed to have grown amazingly in half a semester. He had grown a head taller all of a sudden. He no longer had the soft and cute face of a young boy, but had suddenly become a young and tough teenager.
Alayya took the opportunity to jump into his hood. She thought she had done it very secretly because she even cast a levitation spell on herself to "reduce shock". Subconsciously, she still believed that although the guy was a pervert, he had never really hurt her.
But when she was about to fall into the hood, the boy turned around and caught her with his chest. Barty Crouch Jr. smiled knowingly, "What a surprise encounter, Senior..."
Before Alayya could struggle, he pinched her cheek and stuffed her into his arms, then took her back to his dormitory.
Because of Riddle's new initiative, many children from Slytherin pure-blood families had independent dormitories, including Barty Crouch Jr.
This time, Alayya saw his private room and was surprised by some of the arrangements in his room. If in the past world people were willing to set up cat climbing frames connecting the entire house to increase interaction with cats.
Now Barty Crouch's room can be called a hamster paradise, with intricate colored transparent pipes connecting from the roof to the bathroom, to the bookshelf and desk, and even to his bedside. For Alaya, this is a completely complicated three-dimensional maze.
There are also hamster wheels, sand baths, small fountains, etc. It seems that it is designed to "imprison" her? No way?
Feeling the stiffness of the little hamster in his arms, his hearty laughter was a little harsh. Barty Crouch Jr. held the little hamster tightly and took her to appreciate the "masterpiece" he designed bit by bit.
"Do you still like it? It's specially designed for you~" Little Barty licked the corner of his mouth, his eyes revealing an incomparable light, and he pointed at the hamster's nose with his index finger with interest and caution.
He was waiting for her, waiting for her to change back into human form, so that he could take a good look at her, and then question her...where she had been, and whether she knew that the Dark Lord had been looking for her.
Little Barty's hands gently massaged the hamster's belly as if with magic. Alayya even felt sleepy. She saw through his urgency, and she couldn't change back.
Little Barty was a smart guy who must know what the strawberry on his neck represented. If he asked her about it, she was a little worried that he would go crazy and bite her.
So her little hamster closed its eyes and pretended to be asleep. Even though Barty Crouch Jr.'s grip tightened and the little hamster's pink tongue stuck out, it endured it.
"Very good, senior...it seems that you really want to play games." Barty Crouch Jr. was not annoyed and put Alayya into the giant three-dimensional maze.
Alayya quietly opened her eyes and looked around, but didn't see him. She quickly ran through the maze to a hiding house. Although the bottom of the house was still transparent, it gave her a sense of security.
She was planning to sneak away after he went to class, but the sudden sound of a cat's meow in the pipe made her back shiver. This pervert - in order to force her to show up, he found a cat?
Because the diameter of the tunnel was only the size of a bowl, and the cat was less than a month old, but it was very relentless when it came to chasing. Alayya ran as fast as she could, cursing the guy as a pervert. Barty Crouch Jr. was guarding the exit of the tunnel, opening his pocket watch and waiting to greet her.
Alayya fought desperately, using all her strength and running at the speed of a 100-meter sprint, until she could not run anymore. She resigned herself to her fate and crawled out of the tunnel exit. She turned back in the instant of flight, while the kitten was stuck in the hole because of its size, with its claws stretched out.
Barty had just held her tightly in his arms, and she had spun half a circle in the air. She was panting heavily, and Barty's hateful voice came to her ears, "Is it still fun, Senior?"
