In This Hogwarts Without a Savior

In fact, there was no need for Jon to explain anything else on the ship. The reason why he chose not to stay in the tower on the first night was just for insurance.

If the friendship at dinner was all pretended by Sir Stoker, and he actually discovered Jon's identity from the beginning, then he would definitely try to report this to Voldemort tonight.

The entire Hogwarts students are undoubtedly very attractive to Voldemort. As long as they can capture all the students, Dumbledore can be defeated, which will be of great benefit to him in the future to stabilize the rule of France.

The first night is the most dangerous.

It's not that Sir Stoke can be ruled out as a suspect if there is no problem tonight, but if there is a problem with him, there is no reason to continue waiting.

The longer you delay, the more accidents will happen. If you report your findings as soon as possible, then no matter what problems occur, he will only get the credit.

The night passed.

The whole night was as calm as the sea where they were, without any accidents.

So early the next morning, Jon took Neville and the others back to the tower.

It was still the house elf named Rabil who received them and led them into the living room.

Sir Stoker was having breakfast, and he specially prepared one for Jon and the others.

"This tower is actually very big, and some of its floors have been transformed into pastures. There are a lot of poultry, pigs, cattle and sheep in it, which are usually taken care of by Rabiel to ensure that even if I live such a life far away from human beings, You can also be self-sufficient.”

Breakfast was a sandwich with milk and omelette. Although Jon and the others had already eaten on the boat, they did not refuse to serve it.

"I have arranged everything on the ship, Sir, and I will stay to bother you for a few days."

Jon made small talk, said useless words, and then asked with a smile.

"I wonder if you can introduce this tower to us? You know that children of this age are very curious. Since we accept your invitation to stay, we must respect your rules."

Sir Stoker wiped his glasses. His movements were serious and elegant. He was as meticulous as an orthodox nobleman in his dress and grooming. Faced with Jon's question, he spoke calmly.

"Don't worry, Professor Johnson, I'm not hiding anything dangerous in the tower." He was straightforward, his eyes were clear and could even be said to be sincere, "I understand your concern about being responsible for the safety of your students, but I am not a hacker for convenience. A dark wizard who lives here in seclusion only for magic experiments. The only interest I have in this life is related to astronomy. After graduating from Beauxbatons, I even forgot how to use Apparition."

"You can enter and leave any place in the tower at will. I can guarantee that there will not be any danger. However, the reason why I am willing to ask you to stay is that I do have some things that I need your help with."

He hasn't spent much time with Sir Stoker. The two have only known each other for such a long time from last night to this morning. Jon can clearly see that he is a person who is not very good at communication and getting along with others. .

Not only was his words straightforward, but he also acted the same way. Jon originally thought that the reason why he warmly entertained himself and others had "an ulterior motive". It would take at least two or three more days before he would reveal some clues. Unexpectedly, today Early on, he expressed his need for help without any hesitation.

But think about it, it is normal for an "old otaku" who has been at home for decades to have such a personality. He has not communicated and communicated with outsiders for a long time. If he is a communicative genius, then people need to doubt him.

Jon was naturally happy to speak more clearly.

"If you need any help, just tell me, Sir. We have accepted your hospitality, and we will not refuse anyone who can help."

Sir Stoker put down the knife and fork in his hand. He did not answer Jon directly, but stood up and said.

"If it's convenient, professor, can you go to a place with me alone? Rabiel will take your students around the tower. If you have any needs, you can directly ask it."

Jon and Neville looked at each other, then nodded and said in a slightly stern voice.

"Don't cause trouble to others in other people's homes. Don't forget that we are guests."

Neville understood, he lowered his head and agreed.

"We'll keep an eye out, Professor Johnson."

Then Jon left the drawing room with Sir Stoker.

After they left, only Neville, the five of them, and the elf Rabil were left here, well, or you could also count the black cat.

Luna was obviously more curious about the black cat. She tentatively waved to the cat, but the cat was lying on the armrest of the sofa, looking indifferent to everyone.

"Black animals have an ominous meaning in some places."

She whispered to herself quietly, and only Hermione, who was sitting next to her, heard what she said.

Hermione first glanced at Rabiel to make sure that it had not heard Luna's obviously disrespectful speech, and then lowered her voice.

"It's a matter of custom. For example, crows are also black, but in Britain it is a symbol of good luck. Muggles used to clip off part of the wings of ravens to ensure that they would not fly away from the Tower of London and that the country would not Suffer bad luck.”

Li heard their chat from the side and couldn't help but complain.

"If I were a crow and my wings were clipped to prevent them from flying away, then I would definitely not be in the mood to protect them."

"So this is just a metaphor and a symbol." Hermione said, "People will only care about whether this symbol exists, but will not consider whether its existence is reasonable."

While they were chatting, Neville also started to make some moves.

In Jon's absence, he was the one of the five students responsible for making decisions about actions.

He looked at Rabil who had been standing respectfully aside.

"Can we just take a tour?"

"Of course, the master said you can go anywhere in this tower without restrictions."

After getting confirmation from it, Neville took Ron and Hermione and they left the living room together, went down the stairs, and began to wander around in the tower.

Just as Sir Stoker promised, Rabil did not have any obstruction to where they were going, but he did not completely let them go. Instead, he followed them all the time, saying that it was convenient to provide them with services at any time.

But Neville is not an ordinary 14-year-old boy who grew up with protection and care. From Rabil's current behavior, he can clearly understand that the knight is not as concerned about their behavior in the tower as he said verbally. No taboos.
