Malfoy Rise at Hogwarts

Chapter 72 Hermione Asks for Help
The next day, Saturday, Hogsmeade Village Visit Day.

After the little wizards of Slytherin gathered in the lounge, they set off for Hogsmeade village in a mighty way.

Schelling finally met the legendary Ms. Rosmerta. She was really well maintained and her charm was still there. Tsk tsk, but she was indeed a bit too old—she had already worked in bars during the Predator era, and she was older than Narcissa. Schelling really couldn't imagine why Ron had a crush on her. Could it be that he had an Oedipus complex?

(Note: The People’s Society did not specifically translate for Marauder. It is generally translated by colleagues as predators, which is actually wrong. The nature of this organization is to wander around and violate school rules, not robbers! This book translates it as predators)
Butter beer is not a drink exclusive to the Three Broomsticks, but is sold in all major bars, but the butter beer here is indeed unique, not too greasy, and a bit refreshing.Schelling, who is already quite proficient in herbs and potions, guessed that Moondew should be added to it.

Moondew is a flowering plant that appeared in Scotland. Its flowers will only bloom under sufficient moonlight (usually when the moon is full and cloudless). It is one of the raw materials for invigorating potions and sleeping potions.

(Note: There are many kinds of Sleeping Potion, which are generally used to assist sleep. In the 16th century, the potion genius Zygmunt Bach replaced Moondew with wormwood and created the prototype of the strongest sleeping potion "Living Hell Potion".

Interestingly, it was the medieval Irish female Troy, Cliodna, who discovered the magical properties of moondew. Therefore, generally speaking, only wizards who have a deep understanding of Troy’s magic culture will use moondew in their daily diet.Schelling looked at Ms. Rosmerta with great interest. Does this beautiful woman, who is rarely described in the original book, also have an unknown identity?

Everyone enjoyed themselves at the Three Broomsticks.Draco, with Goyle and Crabbe, wanted to venture into the Shrieking Shack; the others were going to buy candy or prank supplies.Schelling knew that Draco would meet Ron and the invisible Harry at the Shrieking Shack, which would trigger a plot, so he pleaded with the crowd that he had important things to do, and separated from the crowd alone.

After dressing up in disguise, Schelling came to the post office in Hogsmeade Village, chose an owl with anti-tracking function, and anonymously sent a report letter to Professor Snape.The letter reported seeing Harry slipping out in Hogsmeade Village, and then he hurried back to the castle, put a layer of invisible illusion spell on his body, and hid near the one-eyed witch statue on the fourth floor, waiting for the plot to start.

The subsequent plot is exactly the same as described in the original book.

Harry took advantage of his invisibility to play tricks on Draco's trio, but when he accidentally tripped Crabbe with his legs, Crabbe's feet caught the invisibility cloak and pulled the cloak off his body, revealing a human head floating in mid-air, which scared Draco half to death.

Knowing that he was exposed, Harry hurried back to the castle through the secret passage in the cellar of Sugar Dukes, and managed to get out from behind the one-eyed witch statue. The witch's hunchback had just been closed, and Snape happened to come to search, and then took Harry to his office.

After the two left, Schelling confirmed that there was no one else around, and immediately walked up to the statue of the one-eyed witch, whispered "Left and right separation", and then tapped the statue lightly with his wand, and the hump of the statue opened like this, revealing a narrow entrance.Inside is a narrow and low dirt passage, the route twists and turns, like a giant rabbit hole.

The purpose of Schelling's trip was to find the death invisibility cloak that Harry hid here. Although the appearance of the invisibility cloak was invisible and colorless, and the fluctuations in the magic power emitted were concealed enough to blind his magic eyes, it did not bother him.

Schelling released Silver Fang from the suitcase space, allowing it to follow Harry's scent by smell, repeating the route Harry had traveled.

The clever Silver Fang quickly understood the meaning of the master, and led Xie Lin to a dark corner, and indicated with body movements that the smell here was the strongest. After Xie Lin's search, he finally paid off, allowing him to find Death's Invisibility Cloak, stuff it into the space of the suitcase and take it away quietly.

[Death Invisibility Cloak Obtained! 】

With previous experience, Schelling confirmed that this operation was seamless - Dumbledore absolutely did not know the existence of this secret passage before, and the best proof is that after Black's two invasions, he still did not ask Filch to monitor this secret passage.Nicole Flamel, the only one who could use divination to find Schelling, had already bid farewell to Schelling in a letter a week ago, officially welcoming his death.

Nico maintained his usual low profile, and even the funeral was held in secret, so not many people knew about his death.Much of his estate went to Beauxbatons, his alma mater, with only a small portion left to his descendants scattered around the world.

Even Xie Lin, who can only be regarded as a named disciple, also received a book. The cover of this book has no name, and it is locked by a special alchemy lock. Neither the lock-picking spell nor the universal unlocker can open it. We can only wait for Xie Lin's alchemy level to improve, and use alchemy to unlock it. It should be the teacher's final test for the students!
Nico could be regarded as half of Schelling's teacher. Although Schelling was inevitably a little sad, he also understood that this was Nico's own choice. From this point of view, Nico, who chose to die with free will, had already defeated death and met the status requirements of "Master of Death". Therefore, Schelling could only offer his blessings to him from afar, wishing him a smooth journey after his death.

(Note: A wizard will not return to nothingness after death, but enter Limbo first, and then enter Afterlife; People's News Agency did not translate these two words. Do you know how other fan authors translate? There is a Taiwanese version of Crown Publishing House. The former translates as "Misty Illusion", and the latter translates as "The World of the Dead")
The problem now is that although Xie Lin has obtained the Death Invisibility Cloak, he cannot use it openly, otherwise Dumbledore will easily catch him.Schelling's plan is to study the alchemy principle on the Death's Invisibility Cloak, so as to improve his Supreme Wizard's Robe, so that it also has the invisibility and breath-hiding effects of the Death's Invisibility Cloak.

The next day, after lunch time, when Schelling left the Great Hall, he met Hermione who was waiting for him in the corridor.

"Hagrid lost the lawsuit, and Buckbeak is about to be executed..." Hermione's face was terribly pale, with a letter in her hand, her lips were trembling, "Malfoy, can you help it?"

Xie Lin was a little surprised, and couldn't help saying: "Why did you think of looking for me? You know, I am a Malfoy!"

Hermione actually didn't know why she thought of going to Schelling, she just had a strange intuition that Schelling could help her—well, in fact, Hermione couldn't think of anyone else who could help her.

Her choice was different from that in the original book. First of all, after the last conversation with Schelling, she had already understood how many political factors were involved behind a simple hippocampus wounding case; secondly, Harry and Ron’s performance was much worse than in the original book—Harry was no longer the youngest Seeker in history, nor was he the hero who killed the Basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets; Ron was even worse. Not to mention the glorious moment of defeating the troll, he had exposed his small and jealous shortcomings throughout the semester...

On the contrary, although Schelling, who was in the vaguely hostile Slytherin, had nothing to do with her, the only few conversations were a bit unhappy because of different ideas.

However, she clearly remembers that in the first grade, Schelling abandoned his opinions and chose to rescue her from the troll in the women's bathroom. In the second grade, he took the risk and entered the secret room alone to save Ginny.

The most important thing is that Schelling himself comes from one of the most powerful pure-blood families, and he is always so calm and mature in his dealings with others, giving people a sense of trustworthiness.

Apart from the different camp positions, Hermione couldn't find any other reason to hate him, and she could even vaguely feel that she had a lot of affection for this handsome young man.This time I came to him, not only because of Hagrid and Buckbeak, but also because I wanted to take the opportunity to have more contact with Schelling.

When Hermione heard Schelling's question and was hesitating, Schelling saw her embarrassment, and without waiting for her answer, he smiled slightly and said, "Actually, it's not a big deal at all. Have you ever thought that there is actually the simplest and most direct way to save Buckbeak."

"Wh, what do you mean?" Hermione was taken aback for a moment.

"It means—" Xie Lin spread out his hands and said naturally, "Hide it and don't let others find it, isn't that the end?"

"Is that really possible?" Hermione asked in surprise. "I mean, can we really hide it so no one else can find it?"

"Of course, it's actually not that difficult..." Schelling comforted, "If you want to treat me as a friend, just leave this matter to me! Just talk to Hagrid beforehand. Remember, don't tell me, just say that you figured out a way to hide Buckbeak yourself."

Hermione nodded excitedly, "Thank you, Malfoy, thank you for being willing to help me. I'm really sorry for what I said to you that night..."

Schelling raised his brows and said with an exaggerated expression: "Miss Granger, you said that I was a despicable, shameless, vile and hateful Malfoy that day. It really broke my heart! If you really treat me as a friend, don't call me Malfoy anymore!"

Hermione was so teased by him that she burst into tears, then blushed and said, "Then, I'll call you Sherin from now on, is that okay?"

"Of course, in order not to let you take advantage of me, then I will call you Hermione from now on, is that okay?"

Seeing Hermione nodded, Sherin said, "Okay, Hermione, let's stop here for today's conversation. I have to go to class later. Leave Hagrid's affairs to me, and you don't have to worry about it anymore."

Xie Lin didn't think he was a kind person with a soft heart, but he was still a person who promised a lot in essence.Since he had promised Hermione, he would try his best to keep it.Besides, in helping Hermione, I have nothing to lose, it's nothing more than a little sorry for Blaise.Thinking that Blaise had just bought him a drink this morning, Schelling felt a little embarrassed, so he could only secretly say sorry from the bottom of his heart.

Schelling's suitcase space is still empty. Occasionally he will roam in it with Silver Fang, but Silver Fang can only be regarded as a tourist, not a long-term resident of the suitcase space.Schelling decided to go all out and abduct Buckbeak that night, making him the first long-term resident of his suitcase space.

(Please call me Pokémon, ah, no, Master of Collecting Fantastic Creatures!)

It is a pity that people are not as good as heaven, and the development of the matter is beyond Xie Lin's expectations.

That night, there was almost no cloud cover in the sky, and a round bright moon hung on the sky, and the moonlight fell down softly, illuminating the entire Hogwarts Castle with a layer of blue.

When Schelling was planning to go to Hagrid's cabin to abduct Buckbeak, he saw a black dog on the edge of the Forbidden Forest not far from the Whomping Willow.

"I really can't settle down..." Xie Lin scratched his hair, and then followed after him.However, right now he couldn't expose himself in front of Black, so he had to follow far behind, trying not to lose himself completely.

Then he discovered an unusual truth of the matter——Black seems to be chasing Scabbers?
Chasing Scabbers?Now?
A bad premonition emerged in Xie Lin's heart. This was the first time since he was reborn that he witnessed the plot seriously deviate from the track in the original book.

Banban didn't appear so early in the original book, what does it want to do?
Xie Lin was about to follow quickly, but at this moment, a wolf howled suddenly from the castle. The howling was mixed with pain and mania, completely breaking the quiet night sky.

"What?" Schelling, who was running towards the hut, suddenly froze for a moment. He stopped and looked back at a window on the third floor of the castle.On the lawn not far from him, Blake in Animagus form also turned his head, and a pair of black dog eyes fixedly looked at Hogwarts Castle.

In the shocked gazes of the two, a muscular figure covered in long hairs leaned out from the window. In the extraordinarily bright moonlight tonight, even though they were far away, they were clearly illuminated.

　Starting here, the plot of the original book begins to reverse, please continue to support it in the future!
