Hogwarts Rising Again

Chapter 136

The sound startled both Molin and Hugo. Hugo exclaimed and almost threw the telescope in his hand, but Molin bumped Hugo with his arm to calm him down.

"Good afternoon, Professor Charles." Mo Lin put down the binoculars in his hand and said politely quickly.

"What are you two doing with the telescope?" Professor Charles asked politely.

"We...we are..." Hugo was frightened and was a little incoherent. Now he has a "professor Charles phobia", and he couldn't help thinking about it when he saw Professor Charles.

"We are admiring the paintings of the castle, Professor Charles. The two of us have no class this afternoon." Maureen said boldly. He looked at Professor Charles very calmly, without changing his face, and tried to pretend that nothing had happened.

"Oh, like this."

Professor Charles nodded slightly, then looked up at the paintings on the opposite wall, his eyes erratic: "The portraits in the castle are indeed worthy of attention. They all have a certain history, so which painting are you interested in?"

Mo Lin thought for a moment, and he thought of an idea.

"That Painted painting, Professor Charles, I've been very interested in it since you told me last that it could allow Muggles and wizards to coexist."

Maureen looked closely into Professor Charles' eyes, trying to see a change in Professor Charles' eyes.If Professor Charles was really planning some conspiracy, he might show his feet when he heard Maureen's probing.

"Paintegade's painting is indeed very good. What do you see from this painting?" Professor Charles' eyes flickered slightly, and he was slightly surprised.

"There is a person in the painting, the professor, who is very strange. He seems to want to return to his painting frame, but he has been looking around and dare not return to his painting."

Maureen tried his best to pretend to be puzzled, but his gaze still didn't leave Professor Charles' face: "I think the person in the painting comes from Payngade's painting."

The smile on Professor Charles' face gradually disappeared, and he said uncertainly, "Are you sure?"

"Yes, Professor, I'm sure he's been hovering around that picture."

In fact, Mo Lin didn't see anything. He just lied and wanted to test Professor Charles, but he didn't expect that Professor Charles' face actually changed.

"If you don't believe me, you can ask Hugo." Mo Lin bumped Hugo again with his arm and said.

"Yes, Professor, I saw it too." Hugo reacted quickly, and he immediately understood why Maureen said that. Although he was a little afraid of Professor Charles, he still echoed, "That guy is sneaky, looking Restless."

Professor Charles' face became more and more serious: "Which painting did you see that person in?"

"Not necessarily, he has been running around in all the paintings, Professor." Mo Lin pointed to the painting hanging in the corridor on the seventh floor, and then said: "We only saw him running there, and then disappeared .”

Professor Charles looked at the classrooms in the corridor on the seventh floor with a frown. Too many, it's normal for people in the painting to run around."

Professor Charles didn't go to the classroom in the corridor on the seventh floor, but walked down the stairs. When he reached the landing between the seventh and sixth floors, the stairs happened to start moving. Professor Charles raised his head and asked, "Mom?" Lin, when you were on the train that day, did you really not see the person who attacked you clearly?"

Mo Lin froze for a moment, then said: "Professor, I don't know, I just feel that figure is a bit familiar, but I forgot where I saw him."

"That's right." Professor Charles nodded with a smile: "Then you continue to appreciate these paintings, and if you don't understand anything, you can ask me at any time."

After Professor Charles finished speaking, he walked down the changing stairs, and greeted the students who occasionally passed by on the way.

Now it was Maureen and Hugo's turn to look at each other.

"I thought he would go there to see what happened." Hugo couldn't help but whispered.

Maureen stared at Professor Charles' back, was silent for a while, and said, "It's not wise for him to go there."

"Why? If he wants to find that Hoyle and hears what you made up, shouldn't he go and find out? Maybe he will catch that Hoyle!" Hugo asked.

"If he goes now, wouldn't we also follow? He won't let us follow." Mo Lin explained, but he shook the binoculars in his hand and said: "And if he takes what we say seriously , I also know that it is too late now, he has caught Hoyle for so long and has not caught it, even he knows that the opportunity is fleeting."

Mo Lin turned around and walked towards the lounge on the eighth floor with Hugo. It was meaningless for the two of them to stay here any longer.

"But if you lie to him like this, aren't you afraid to provoke him and attack the two of us?" Hugo asked.

Mo Lin shook his head: "He has already attacked us, hasn't he? You lost your memory and I was attacked. Since we have all been targeted, there is nothing to worry about."

"You're right to say that." Hugo and Mo Lin walked around the corner together, and saw the portrait of the fat lady from a distance.

After a while, Hugo said again: "But I still don't quite understand. If Professor Charles really wanted to attack you, why did he attack you when he was not at school? You must know that he can attack you just like we did. Isn't it easier Why? Why bother?"

Maureen is also thinking about this issue, but he thinks that the reason why Professor Charles did not attack him may be because he knows that he is not affected by the Time Converter, and wanting to capture Maureen is not the same as catching other people, so he secretly controls Polk went to attack him.

"Anyway, we need to find Hoyle first. He must know some secrets. Unlike Sir Cadogan, he didn't help him with anything." Molin walked to the fat lady's portrait and looked at the man who was dressing up. Fat lady, say the password: "You are so beautiful."

"Thank you, dear." The fat lady pulled up her skirt and gave a salute like dancing a ballet.

Hugo couldn't help laughing, God knows what the fat lady was thinking, she would actually change the password to this, every time a Gryffindor student wants to enter the door, they must praise the fat lady without conscience, you must know that the fat lady and "beauty" This term is really irrelevant, but the fat lady said that a long time ago, women regarded fat as beautiful, and they looked proud.

The portrait of the Fat Lady has been rotated halfway, and Hugo continued: "But we still don't know who Hoyle is, don't we? I mean, we know that he is the protagonist of "The Wizard of Tomorrow", but we don't know that he is in What does Payngade's painting mean..."

boom!
The fat lady's door was half-opened and then slammed shut. Hugo withdrew his hand and was almost caught by the portrait frame. He said angrily, "What are you doing? We've already given the password!"

"Hoyle! How dare you mention this damned heartless man!"

The Fat Lady screamed, knocked the whole pile of makeup on the dressing table to the ground, stomped on it, and looked pissed off.
