Hogwarts Rising Again

Chapter 43 The Sleepwalker in the Divination Building

The footsteps came so suddenly that even Mo Lin didn't react. He wanted to find a place to hide, but it was too late, and a figure had already entered his sight.

This is a witch in old checkered pajamas. She looks about six or seventy years old, with gray hair and thick glasses almost as thick as the bottom of a wine bottle.

She walked towards Mo Lin slowly, her expression and behavior were very strange.Mo Lin's heart kept beating. He didn't know this witch, but he seemed to have seen it at the opening ceremony, because she was also sitting on the professor's chair.

Which means he was caught wandering around the castle in the middle of the night by a professor!

Molin took a deep breath, and was about to think of an excuse to explain why he appeared here in the middle of the night, but the witch in nightgown walked past him as if she didn't see Molin.

"Could it be sleepwalking?" Mo Lin breathed a sigh of relief. If it was sleepwalking, then there is no need to worry too much, just wait for her to walk over.

And yet the garrulous Sir Cadogan called cheerfully over the wall: "Good evening, Professor Trelawney!"

Maureen almost wanted to rush over and gag this guy. If he woke up Professor Trelawney, he might have to be arrested to see Filch and locked up for a day or two.

Then he froze for a moment, Professor Trelawney?The name is not...

Mo Lin remembered that there was a book called "The Stories Harry Potter and Voldemort Have to Tell" that mentioned a prophecy, and it was also the prophecy that linked Harry Potter and Voldemort, which is said to have come from Hogwarts Professor Trelawney.

Thinking of this, Mo Lin felt a sense of awe at this wrinkled witch.

When Professor Trelawney heard Sir Cadogan's greeting, he stopped in his footsteps. Molin's scalp was numb, and he was thinking of running away. Anyway, Professor Trelawney didn't know him.But Professor Trelawney did not respond to Sir Cadogan, but walked slowly to the window of the platform and looked out.

The weather was not good tonight, and it was raining a little, so Maureen's astronomy class was cancelled.But the moment Professor Trelawney looked out of the window, all the rain disappeared, and the bright moon actually peeked out from the dark clouds.

Everything changed so fast that even Maureen didn't have time to react.

Immediately afterwards, a dreamlike ethereal voice came out from Professor Trelawney's mouth: "Dark enlightenment, time disorder, people deprived of memory have spied the truth in the mist, pierced the disguise of death, the dead are on their way !"

Professor Trelawney's voice changed from ethereal to shrill, and Maureen was terrified when he heard it. He looked at Professor Trelawney who kept repeating these words in astonishment, a little at a loss.Is she talking in her sleep, or...

Maureen was taken aback. Could it be that Professor Trelawney was prophesying something?Just like what she had predicted to Harry, but would it be such a coincidence?The first time I met her, I didn't know her...

Boom!

The night outside the castle was torn apart by a flash of lightning, the moon had already disappeared, the dark clouds gathered again, and the raindrops fell again, rustling.

"call--"

Professor Trelawney suddenly shuddered all over his body, then glanced around strangely, saw Maureen, and asked, "Oh, dear, who are you? Why are you here in the middle of the night?"

Maureen didn't know how to answer. He was still thinking about what Professor Trelawney said just now. Was it just a dream or...

But if it is a dream, it may not be too real.

"Professor, I'm sorry, I, I'm lost, I'm a freshman in Gryffindor, I don't know how to get back." Molin said after recovering.

"Gryffindor's freshmen, the castle is so big, it's normal to get lost, it's so late, it's strange... why am I here?" Professor Trelawney didn't seem to understand her sleepwalking problem, she lifted her Lifting his thick glasses, he yawned.

"Professor, don't you know what you said just now? What do you mean by dark enlightenment?" Mo Lin asked.

Professor Trelawney waved her hand: "Dark Enlightenment, what is that? I think you must have heard wrong, dear, go back quickly! Go straight along the corridor, turn right at the end, and then you You will see the place where the tower and the castle are connected, you are familiar with it there, do you want me to take you there?"

Mo Lin shook his head: "No need, I can go by myself, good night professor."

Holding the picture frame of the landscape painting in his hand, he ran towards the original direction, and in the middle of the run, he hung the painting back on the wall.

"Dirty traitor, wait! I will return." Sir Cadogan brandished a sword in the painting on the wall.

"I'm sorry, Sir Cadogan, I still have class tomorrow, and I'll come to you next time." Maureen said casually, still thinking about Professor Trelawney's words in his mind.

"It doesn't matter, my heroic comrade-in-arms, the future will be long, and together we will definitely kill those sneaky people!" Sir Cadogan looked extraordinarily energetic, his figure flashed, and he had disappeared into a painting.

It is only a blink of an eye for the person in the portrait to return to his photo frame, but to go to other places, he needs to use other paintings to achieve it. Maureen ignored him and carefully returned to the tower of Gryffindor .

"Come back early next time, you interrupted my sweet dreams!" The fat lady was not happy to be woken up in the middle of the night.

When I returned to the dormitory, I found that Toby hadn't slept yet.

"Where did you go? Why didn't you come back." Toby asked quickly.

Maureen glanced at Sweet's bed, and found that Sweet hadn't come back, and Toby was alone in the dormitory just now.

"I went to look for Hugo, but I couldn't find it." Mo Lin changed into his pajamas wearily, and sat on the bed.

There were more and more questions in his mind. It was fine if he didn't find out the reason why Sir Cadogan's portrait was removed this evening, but instead he heard Professor Trelawney say something strange there.

——Dark enlightenment, time confusion, people deprived of memory have spied the truth in the mist, pierced the disguise of death, and the dead are on their way!

What is the meaning of this unclear sentence?Did Professor Trelawney really make a prophecy?But if it is a prophecy, then what does this passage represent?
Shouldn't the real prophecies be similar: some wizard will fall from a flying broom and break his leg recently, or whoever's most worried thing will happen within two months? wizards will be born at the end of July and so on.

But Professor Trelawney's words were so endless that Maureen couldn't figure it out at all.

If this passage is connected with the strange things that happened recently, it really seems to be the same thing. For example, "time disorder" can be understood as the event of Maureen himself going back to the past, and "people deprived of memory" can be understood as those who disappeared. Amnesia event, but what is "breaking the disguise of death"?What do the other two sentences mean?
He found paper and a pen, recorded the content of the prophecy, and thought about it carefully.Looking at Hugo's empty bed again, he couldn't fall asleep at night.
