This Old Man Had Some Real Insight!

Harry looked at Andy with a thoroughly baffled expression. How the hell was this somehow his fault?

But on second thought, there didn't seem to be anything wrong with that.

Andy had only wanted to scare him. What could be more innocent than that?

Harry himself had made such a huge fuss that everyone found out, and in the end, he had even brought the professors over.

Who else could be blamed?

Harry: "..."

Andy shrugged indifferently.

"Mr. Collins, don't shirk responsibility."

Professor McGonagall looked utterly stern. "I think that no matter who saw you turn into a ghost, they wouldn't remain unmoved."

She was somewhat displeased.

Even if you wanted to shift the blame, couldn't you pick a Slytherin? Why did it have to be one of us Gryffindors? "All right! I admit I was wrong!" Andy said at once.

Professor McGonagall's dignity still had to be respected.

"Since it was only a prank..."

Professor McGonagall swept her gaze around the room. "Everyone, disperse!"

"As for Mr. Collins..."

Professor McGonagall paused.

There was no need for points deductions or detention. At the end of the day, Andy's actions had merely been a harmless prank. He hadn't caused any trouble, so punishment was unnecessary.

Compared to that, Professor McGonagall was more curious about how Andy had managed it.

A living person had turned into a ghost!

That had never happened before.

However, this was Andy's secret, and for the moment, she did not know how to ask about it.

"Professor, we can talk about it," Andy said considerately.

When it came to magical research, Andy could shamelessly seek advice from anyone, and he was even less inclined to keep his own research results to himself.

Everyone had their own areas of expertise. Only through mutual exchange could they improve faster.
