Chapter 40 Raid
"Show me, Nelson."

There was a rude door opening, and an uninvited guest broke into the compartment where the two of them were. He sat beside Nelson and smashed a kitten that was napping in Nelson's arms, with his outstretched legs folded. On the opposite chair, Tom resisted his anger and looked at the person who came. The kitten jumped up on the table and snarled at him with hunched back and bared teeth.

"Dumbledore...Professor?" Tom looked surprised when he saw the appearance of the person who came.

"Hahaha, it's very similar, right?" Dumbledore smugly pointed his index finger at Tom, while snatching the photo from Nelson's hand and observing, "Oh? Is this the orphanage you grew up in? Now England Are the conditions in the orphanage so good?"

"Mr. Aberforth?" Nelson looked at "Dumbledore" beside him and asked with a frown.

"Looks like you're not too stupid." Aberforth turned to Nelson and raised his eyebrows, "The compound decoction is really useful, isn't it? That way I don't have to explain to a bunch of idiots why. The venerable Albus is gone."

"Are you Mr. Aberforth?" Tom also responded, and the kitten also hid back to where it started.

"What a fool." Aberforth burst into laughter, and hurriedly said when he saw Tom's self-esteem hurting, "You won't be exposed to Compound Potion until your fourth grade, which is still a controlled potion by the Ministry of Magic. , it's normal not to understand."

"By the way, you want to call me Professor Dumbledore~" Aberforth seemed to be enjoying his current status, and added in a brisk tone, "I want to salute when I see me in school."

He continued to look down at the photo, and Nelson handed him another magical photo taken at the same location, his frivolous face dignified, looking exactly like the real Albus Dumbledore.

"Show me the camera," he reached out for Nelson's camera, rubbed the inscription on it, and said slowly, "Nelson, do you know the Mirror of Erised?"

"What's that?" Tom couldn't help asking Nelson without speaking.

"Looks like you know," Aberforth explained to Tom, watching Nelson's expression, "The Mirror of Erised is a mirror brought back by school teachers centuries ago, and its origins are no longer verifiable. "

"what is that?"

"Since it is a magic mirror, it will always be different from other mirrors, and I happen to know it very well." He said slowly in a calm, almost gnashing tone, "What I show is not yours. A mirror image, but the desire of your heart. (Note: The inscription on the top of the Mirror of Erised reads I show not your face but your hearts desire. That is, I do not show your face, but the desire in your heart.)"

"It's a magic mirror that reflects the desires of one's heart." Nelson said aside, looking at his camera worriedly, "I took some pictures with it, will it..."

"Don't worry too much, it's too small," Aberforth said sternly, "but never trust anything that can spy on your brain unless you can hide your brain."

Tom sent a cryptic smile to Nelson, who had been practicing Occlumency since the first day of school.

"So I thought—"

"Boom!!!" Aberforth's words were interrupted by a huge roar from the front of the car. The entire carriage leaned forward with the huge inertia brought about by the pause. Nelson fell forward under the influence of inertia, his arms in his arms. The kitten jumped on his back nimbly, but he was a human who didn't react so fast after all, the weight of his whole body was gathered on his chest against the small board table in the compartment, like being hit hard by a sledgehammer After a moment, his eyes darkened and he lay down on the table.

……

"Wake up, Gnar! Are you all right?!"

Tom shoved Nelson's shoulder anxiously, and stumbled upon hearing someone call him to open his eyes, Nelson tried his best to swallow a sullen breath in his chest, but was pushed and a little disgusted.

"Guck!—" Fortunately, it was just retching, and Tom hurriedly leaned in and patted him on the back.

"Are you all right?" Tom asked concerned.

"Ugh...cough, okay, don't shake it!" Nelson raised his head weakly, "What happened?"

"I don't know, the train suddenly stopped just now, and there were even a few cars in front of it that overturned. Aberforth told us to hide here. He went to the front to check." He opened the car window and looked forward, and a red light suddenly turned towards He flew over, so frightened that he immediately retracted his head, and said with lingering fear, "I know, we were attacked."

"Let's go check it out too!" He pulled out his wand and fastened his shoelaces.

"Let's go! Nal!" Seeing Nelson still sitting there, motionless, "Although he told us to hide here, we can't sit still!"

"I know... can you wait?" Nelson took his wand out of his pocket. "Ouch!"

Tom could only come over and continue to pat him on the back.

"I'm fine." Nelson cleared his throat, stood up and moved his limbs, "Can you do the Illusionary Charm?"

"No." Tom said calmly.

"..." Nelson thought about it forcibly, "It's not bad, at least the friendly forces won't hit us."

Tom opened the door of the compartment, probed out and looked at it for a few seconds. "No one is outside, let's go." Simple cat litter, rub the kitten's chin and put it in.

……

At the connection between the two carriages, Nelson hid at the door, took out a ball of tissue paper and threw it on the ground. Go after the grey rat of freedom.

Tom had his ear pressed against the wall beside the door pivot, his wand in one hand aimed at the preview point.

"Squeak!" With a scream, the gray mouse in pursuit of freedom got rid of the shackles brought by life.

"Finally bumped into someone." Nelson shrugged and whispered to Tom, who was on the opposite side. This was already the third carriage they had passed through, and they would reach the front after two carriages.In the first two carriages, only a few sporadic lower grade students were seen hiding in the compartments. According to them, the upper grade students were all arranged by Dumbledore to evacuate the students at the back, and they also had to go to the back carriage. .

"The first section seems to be a dining car," Tom said softly. "How are we going to get in? By the way, how come I didn't meet Alphard and his sister, and there's no one in Slytherin!"

"They might be in the back compartment." Nelson took out the treasure he had just taken out of an empty compartment from his pocket, "I counted three, two and one and we rushed in and hid behind the storage racks, three… …two……"

"Wait Gnar, don't we—"

"One! Go!" Nelson grabbed the pokeball-like bead in his hand and threw it into the front door. With a "pop", it turned into a tent that was slowly opening. It turned out to be a tent. It was a portable tent, and I don't know what its owner was going to do to bring it to Hogwarts, but the safety of this luxurious life magic tool is very reliable. Nelson and Tom followed it and rushed in. The dining cart, then rolled on the spot and hid under the meat rack.

Tom also quickly crawled over from under another shelf, and said carefully as he climbed: "I've thought about it for a long time, this is what Aberforth did, and I really can't think of anyone else who would do such a thing. "

"Uh..." Nelson didn't know what to say, he could only pretend to observe the surrounding environment, and suddenly caught a furry thing.

"Take your hand away." Aberforth's voice sounded beside him, it was a goat, and Nelson had always thought it was food in the dining car, "Riddle, for the next half term, you will There's a lot of homework, I promise."

It slowly emerged from under the meat rack, revealing a pale, dark-haired man sitting under his butt.

"It's disgusting, these mice." Aberforth scolded and turned back into a human form. "The Headmaster was away, and the mighty Albus Dumbledore was away, so they made a hole right away."

"I have to say that we still have a tacit understanding. I am lying in ambush under the meat rack. You first throw a mouse in to divert his attention, and then throw a tent to cover his head when he walks over to check! Realizing that there were two students next to him, he stopped swearing for a minute and praised, "What a genius idea, I'll buy two tents and bring them with me when I go back!"

"..."

Aberforth, who realized that his boasting did not improve the atmosphere but made the surrounding air more awkward, finally stopped, and found that Tom had checked around the dining car, and Nelson was about to take off the attacker's clothes lying on the ground. .

"Mr. Aberforth!" Nelson squatted beside the attacker, holding up a necklace with an ugly face. Under the golden necklace was a delicate ornament, which had an extremely delicate shape - a vertical circle in the circle. Line, line runs through a triangle, "Look at this..."

"Sure enough, he did it, I %&...%&&*" Aberforth began to curse again when he saw the pendant. After a while, he looked tired, shook his head, and explained, " This is the symbol of Grindelwald, it seems that this person is his subordinate, this is no longer an ordinary attack, you must go to the back and hide!"

Tom grabbed Nelson's arm and shook his head, and Nelson had to shake his head with a wry smile.

"Okay, I won't talk nonsense anymore." Aberforth spread his hands, and this style was a bit resolute. "There are three of them, and one is lying there."

He pointed his wand at the shirtless man on the ground, and a cord spewed from the wand and tied him firmly.

"There are two more at the front of the car," he explained quickly as he walked towards the door leading to the next car. "They are fighting a teacher I don't know and three students."

Aberforth took the two people into the last carriage, where all the tables, chairs and benches were broken and toppled, and there was nothing intact. He sighed, "Boys, you really aren't 'weak people'."
