Hogwarts Defense Against the Dark Arts Professor Peter

Chapter 120 The Key
Except for the remaining ashes on the ground and the figure of Harry who was the target, the room was restored to its original state. Peter closed the Latin dictionary and sat on a large soft sofa to rest for a while.

"Gabriella, thank you for being with me for hours, it's midnight now," Peter said.

Andonova slowly sat on the sofa where Peter was sitting, very close to Peter, her hair brought a gust of fragrance and brushed against his cheeks, "Yeah, I'm very tired, and Haierbo's magic has me Didn't learn anything," she said with a wry smile.

"You didn't establish a contract with him. Besides, such black magic is not a good thing for you. Even I dare not say that I will not be deceived at all."

"Then wouldn't it be a loss for me to accompany you for a few hours in vain? I could have read a few more pages of the book tonight..." Andonova's lips curled up slightly, and her bright brown eyes focused on Peter, " So tell me, how are you going to make up for the time I lost at night?"

"Then..." Peter turned his head slightly, and gently embraced Andonova's neck with his newborn left arm without the Dark Mark, bringing her face closer to him.

Before the steam dissipated, the counter-spells and protective spells all over the room set up an invisible barrier, and the Latin dictionary in Peter's arms fell to the floor in a mess, with a few dumb syllables floating out of the pages.

The next day, Peter spent a lot of time sorting out the Latin dictionary that stored the Parsel language. Despite the help of magic, it was still a complicated project to compare Latin with English and arrange them logically for easy selection.

On Peter's desk, next to Luna's little Christmas tree, he dropped the pierced diary. The Voldemort's soul in it was dead beyond death, and now it was just a plain old diary.

Meanwhile, somewhere in the castle, Harry is wandering around wearing an invisibility cloak and carrying a Marauder's Map to avoid the professors and security guards patrolling the castle.

As he walked aimlessly, he recited the ballad in the golden egg in his heart, "A key opens a lock, and secrets are hidden in the castle..." What does this sentence mean?

The previous afternoon, in the Gryffindor common room, Harry told Hermione and Ron the lyrics. Hermione lowered her head in thought, and Ron said uncertainly: "This means that the secret pointed to by the golden egg has been revealed." Hidden in the castle, and it has something to do with keys and locks."

"Oh, thanks, Ron, I figured this out myself, what a constructive tip," said Harry.

"We should look up the information, or ask Professor Binns." Hermione said, "There is no way they would secretly stuff something into the toilet in a bathroom in the castle, and everyone would laugh at them to death, we want The secret you are looking for must have some unusual origin."

"Stuffing stuff in the toilet...Hermione, that sounds like a way to cheat on an exam," Ron interjected, but Hermione ignored him with a straight face.

"I ran to ask Professor Binns if it was inappropriate," Harry said with a frown. "The Triwizard Tournament requires the warriors to complete the puzzle independently, although Professor Snape said that cheating is the practice of the Triwizard Cup—"

"Ronnie~" Parvati ran over at a very inopportune moment, and Harry hurriedly stopped the topic of cheating, the gold bracelets on her wrists clinking and clinking.

"Pal~" Ron stood up, opened his arms exaggeratedly, and Parvati plunged into his arms, and the two soon put their arms around each other, their arms were noose tightly together, and they slipped through the hole in the fat lady's portrait Out of the common room.

Hermione bit her lips angrily, "What they did is a serious violation of school rules! This is an extraordinary period, and students other than the prefects are not allowed to leave the common room during non-class hours!"

"But Professor Peddie has captured Mr. Crouch, and the castle is not so dangerous anymore," Harry said.

Hermione looked angrily at the place where Ron disappeared, as if she didn't hear Harry's words, "They will be caught by Professor Snape—no, by Dolores Umbridge..."

Harry saw the shadow of Professor McGonagall in Hermione, but he didn't believe that Hermione was really like this because they violated the school rules, so he changed the subject carefully, "Uh... so, do you think 'keys and locks 'What will it be?"

Hermione ignored Harry.She stood up suddenly, and walked quickly towards the girls' dormitory. Before entering the door, she turned around and shouted to Harry:
"Maybe the treasure they're asking you to find is Ronnie! They'll take Ronnie and tell you to pair him with Pal - 'a key to a lock', lo and behold, Ronnie and Pal How tightly locked are my arms!"

With a bang, the door to the girls' dormitory was slammed shut, and Harry felt helpless. This school year, the trio's friendship had always been challenged. At this moment, Harry could only face the puzzle alone.

"There are dangers and obstacles." This sentence indicates that there will be obstacles in the second project...well, it doesn't make sense.

"Desire is your shackles, but also your gospel. If you succeed, the power of command will belong to you. If you fail, everything will come to naught." This sentence is too puzzling. What does the whole thing have to do with "desire" ?Harry patted his head brokenly under the cloak, sometimes he felt that solving puzzles was more troublesome than teaching the history of magic taught by Binns.

He came to a staircase that could rotate automatically. According to legend, this was left by Rowena Ravenclaw, the founder of Ravenclaw College, and its purpose was to hone the wisdom of the students.He stared absently at the stairs, pondering clues for the second project.

"Potter, what are you doing here?" said a low voice.

Startled, Harry turned his head to find Snape standing on a winding staircase that had just turned around.

"Professor, how did you see me?"

"Your feet are showing," Snape said sarcastically.

Harry took off the invisibility cloak awkwardly. He doubted that Snape's black eyes could see through the cloak and see the truth.

"You're distressed," Snape said.

"Yes……"

"Distress is normal. You may not realize that the essence of life is trouble."

"Professor Snape, thank you for the golden egg and Mr. Crouch." Harry said.

Snape curled his lips, "You don't need to thank me, the poison is made from potions." After speaking, he turned and prepared to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Harry said bravely, "There is a puzzle in the golden egg, can you help me solve it?"

Snape narrowed his eyes, as if hesitant, and after a while, he said, "Go to my office, I don't want to be seen helping the Warriors cheat."

……

On Monday morning, the owl delivered a new Daily Prophet with a headline on the front page: "Mr Barty Crouch, Minister for Magic, has attacked two Hogwarts professors suspected of being mysteriously people control."

The article in the report described in detail the whole process of the incident and the fact that Voldemort was seeking to be resurrected. Luke Wood.

People were amazed at the change in attitude at the Ministry of Magic, from passive cover-ups to active responses.

The reason is simple. After two days of gaming, Amelia Burns, head of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, finally took power.
