Chapter 29 "Everything is petrified" (bushi) (page 12)
They don't know how to help Goyle remove the spider.
In other words, should I help him?
After all, these three guys are really... annoying!
Here's the thing:
As soon as he heard that the famous Harry Potter was on the train, Draco, Goyle and Crabbe went from compartment to compartment to look for him.
Moreover, they don’t know how to knock on the door!
For this reason, these three people made countless young lovers scold each other. If he hadn't been lucky enough not to enter the carriage where Gryffindor gathered in the first place, plus the Malfoy family's iconic hair, these three people would probably have been in a carriage. Can't get out.
When they found the compartment where Harry and Ron were staying, Hermione was also there with Neville, who she met, who was looking for a pet toad. Several young wizards were sharing the "little rich" Harry had just bought. Lots of little snacks.
When Draco came up, he performed a "king's spirit leaking out", and then he vividly performed what it means to "make a cup and get slapped in the face" - to be honest, it would be a pity for him to go to Hogwarts to learn magic with this talent. , wouldn’t the future be brighter if you become a comedian (dense fog)?
Then, after being humiliated by Harry Potter, Draco started talking trash like "the scum of the pure-blood family", "Mudblood", and "Silly Big One".
Crabbe and Goyle were half pretending to help, and half were really greedy, so they randomly grabbed the pile of snacks that Harry Potter bought with money and stuffed them into their mouths without looking at them. The toffee that had been "accidentally" dropped by the "Kings of Prank" Weasley twins had entered Goyle's mouth.
As a result, Gore fell short.
His tongue suddenly extended out of the youngest's head, looking like a banshee that often appears in horror stories. And this is not over yet, just like a teapot with several teacups, the second cup immediately found Gore.
After being slapped by George and Fred, the bag spider finally escaped from the clutches of the two brothers and happened to crawl into this car.
Even though spiders are creatures with multiple pairs of eyes, they actually have very poor eyesight. Coupled with the fact that a lot of spider silk had just been sprayed out and a lot of protein had been lost, the little guy was even more hungry and dizzy.
Therefore, it mistook Gower for a giant worm that Lee Jordan often fed to it.
High in protein, soft and delicious, delicious...
With lightning speed, the bag spider pounced on Gower, opened its fangs and bit his tongue in one fell swoop.
Then, the Bourne and Weasley twins came to the carriage and saw the horrifying scene of "a kiss between a human and a spider."
"Merlin's ripped socks!" George sighed with his mouth wide open, but he immediately shut his mouth tightly.
"It hurts just to look at it." Fred seemed to have said something sarcastic, but he still told the truth.
The most conscientious one was Bourne. Looking at the two brothers, he, a little wizard who had not yet officially entered school, couldn't help but ask: "Haven't you already studied magic at Hogwarts for two years? Use a magic spell to put this bag Will Spider help Gore take it down?"
In fact, after helping the two brothers and Lee Jordan untie the cobwebs with the group of Gryffindors, it didn't take long for Bourne to think of a question: By the way, aren't these students all wizards, and they are all middle and high school students? Why solve problems with your hands instead of a wand?
Hands better than wands?
If this is the case, then why did wizards invent wands? Is it an IQ tax created by wand-making masters from ancient times to the present?
It can't be!
After listening to Bourne's words, the twins looked at each other, their eyes seeming to say——
"It's broken. He tricked it."
"How about you try it first?"
"It's you first."
"You first..."
Fortunately, the silent communication between the two did not fall into an endless loop, because the twins noticed that Bourne was looking at them with inquiring eyes.
"Ahem," George clenched his fists, cleared his throat, and began to make nonsense seriously... Oh, no, it was an explanation.
"That's it," he said, "there will definitely be no problem for both of us with the magic spell. The key question is what kind of magic spell to use? Stick in the front teeth, hula la la grin, upside down golden bell, leg locking spell, Alajo hole opening, left and right separation … The shortlist is a little long and it takes a little time to think about it.”
Fred nodded in agreement.
Bourne was confused when he heard this - I am not well-read, but you can't fool me - these spells are probably, seem, maybe... either small evil spells, or general spells used by wizards to open secret doors!
Some of the best spells the Weasley twins learned during their two years at Hogwarts were either to pull off pranks or simply to facilitate their night outs.
Bourne, who had previewed "Standard Spells" in advance, has now thought of three spells to solve the current situation: "Levitation Curse", "Freezing Curse" and "Cutting Curse", and these three spells are from Hogwarts One and Two. The focus of the grade magic exam.
As if he felt that the little wizard in front of him was not easy to fool, Fred, the twin, added: "There is another problem, that is, the little fat guy jumps too fast now. Our spell may not be able to hit him. If he Being able to stay in place...hey, it seems like there is a spell."
The twins looked at each other again, with confident expressions on their faces, and then raised their wands at the same time.
"Everything is petrified!" x2
Even without verbal communication, the two brothers, who had a good understanding of each other, used their wands to fire two translucent rays at the same time, and flew towards Gore, who was in close contact with the bag spider.
This spell is a spell learned in the first-year spell class. According to the classification of spells, it should be classified as a [curse], but the damage caused to the target of the spell (human or animal) is not great.
It can put the target into a state similar to petrification, but even without using a counter-spell, the curse can be automatically broken within an hour or two at most.
Originally, logically speaking, the Weasley twins should have petrified the bag spider. It's just that the two of them took into account the problem of their own inaccurate shooting, and because they didn't want to embarrass themselves in front of their junior students, they changed their targets to Gower, who had a better aim.
Anyway, as long as Goyle was petrified, the two of them could pick the bag spider off his tongue with their hands.
The idea was good, but the actual result was a little unexpected - when they released the spell, the Hogwarts Express happened to make a small turn along the track - under the influence of inertia, Weiss The twins' arms holding their wands tilted to the side. Naturally, the magic spell shot was also deflected a little bit...
They were hiding aside Draco and Crabbe respectively. None of the two unlucky children were left behind. They were frozen on the spot as they hugged each other with frightened expressions on their faces.
He looked at Bourne, then at the other little wizards standing at the door of the compartment, and finally at Goyle, who was shouting even more cheerfully.
George grinned awkwardly.
"Perhaps you don't believe-"
Fred shrugged.
"——We didn't mean it."
The twins made a little fool of themselves, and Bourne simply raised his own wand.
