Chapter 76: King of Snakes

Chapter 76: King of Snakes

There are actually two entrances to the Headmaster's office located on the seventh floor.

One is right in front of Jon's eyes, and the other is on the second floor, it's just that the entrance on the second floor has been completely blocked, leaving only this one on the seventh floor.

Unlike other classrooms or offices, the door of the Headmaster's office is large and has two sides just like the castle gate.

At the moment this door is tightly closed, Jon carefully approached the door, and without reaching out to push, he put his ear close to the door.

Very quiet, no different from the current Hogwarts Castle, but somehow Jon, although he did not hear any sound, he smelled a faint fishy smell.

This smell is not that strong, probably blocked off by the door, but through the door crack this fishy smell is very obvious, so he is well aware that this is not his own delusion or anything.

Jon put his hand that still covered with the cloak of invisibility on the left-hand door, which was not locked, it seems even though Snape and Dolohov had given strict orders to all the students, there are no actual protection measures here.

He exhaled lightly, then slightly pressed forward, and a crack appeared in the middle of the two doors.

Through this crack, he saw the view behind the door where the lobby should be.

Where a long, thick body like a big barrel coiled, with emerald green scales faintly reflecting the dim light, it looked like it was asleep, and did not notice Jon who quietly opened the door, the coiled body floating up and down in regular intervals.

Jon watched the huge creature for a few seconds, and without seeing the part of its head, he re-closed the gap in the door.

Nagini?

No, this is Hogwarts Castle, if he really wants something to help him guard the Headmaster's office, then Nagini is certainly not suitable, the most suitable one should be another snake.

An ancient serpent that does not belong to him, but obeys his commands because of his bloodline and the Parseltongue talent he inherited from his ancestors-

The Basilisk!

Jon wrapped up the cloak of invisibility tightly and did not stay here, his footsteps lightened, moving quickly and turning towards the stairs.

"After the afternoon ideology class, we have to clean the lavatory of the castle, so I suggest you not eat too much at noon, Randy, did you forget that you almost threw up when cleaning the lavatory last time?"

At lunchtime, watching Jon eating cold sausages as well as dry bread, Hermione could not help but remind him in a small voice.

Hearing her words, Jon put down the last piece of dry bread in his hand, Hermione is indeed right, he almost failed to hold back last time when cleaning the lavatory for the first time.

Almost three weeks have passed since he came to the castle, and he basically noticed that among the second-year students, Hermione is their "leader".

This little girl is smart, attentive, and usually always looking out for others and the younger students, these children in the second year are also willing to listen to her.

"Haven't you done this kind of work this summer? I remember that except for the first time when you cleaned the lavatory in the first year, when you cried from the smell there, and then forced yourself to accept it, you never had a hard time again, right?"

The little girl looked at Jon and asked in a somewhat curious tone.

Jon's heart jumped slightly, but his face did not change expression as he said.

"The gentleman I boarded with over the summer was very nice to me and didn't let me do these kinds of work, I just became a little uncomfortable after returning to school, but it won't be a problem anymore."

Hermione just asked this question casually, and after hearing Jon's explanation, she nodded and said nothing more.

However, Jon became more alert inside, this little girl is different from other second-year children, she can see the problem as long as he behaves a little inconsistently with the original "Smith" behaviour.

In the future, he needs to pay extra attention in front of Hermione.
