Hogwarts Rising Again

Chapter 464
Mo Lin checked the time. It was already one o'clock in the morning. Do you really have to run to school in the middle of the night?
But thinking of Payngade, Mo Lin felt that he couldn't ignore it, and Helena's serious expression didn't look like she was joking.

Besides, Helena is the daughter of Ravenclaw, she knows what the Black Rubik's Cube and the Stone Arch mean. If this matter is not urgent, Helena will not come to him in the middle of the night.

In any case, he had to go to the school to meet Principal McGonagall to clarify the matter first. If there was any connection between the two stone arches and him, he had to go there.

Maureen heard Alton's slight snoring from the next bedroom, and he was sure that grandpa was asleep. He didn't dare to go through the door, fearing that walking through the living room would wake Alton up, so he climbed to the window.

"Duoyi, come quickly." Mo Lin whispered.

"Doi! Doi!" Doi jumped from the bed onto Mo Lin's shoulder.

Maureen jumped downstairs.

Snapped!
With a slight sound, Maureen had disappeared into the air.

There were several ways to get to the school, and if Headmaster McGonagall had been there, he would have Apparated into the woods and run for the gate.

But just to be on the safe side, he decided to go from Arnock's house, mainly to make sure that the Black Rubik's Cube was still in Arnock's hands.

Maureen directly apparated into Arnock's living room, opened the door of the painting on the wall, ran into the painting, stomped in the living room in the painting and ran into Arnock's room. Sleeping soundly in bed in cow pajamas.

"Don't sleep, don't sleep, wake up!" Mo Lin shook Arnold in the painting.

But Arnock slept soundly, babbled and ignored Mo Lin.

Maureen found that there was a sleep bubble on Anok's nose, which was still bulging.

He remembered what Sir Cadogan said last time when people in the painting sleep with a bubble in their nose. If the person in the painting is too asleep to be woken up, they have to poke the bubble.

Mo Lin quickly reached out and poked Anok's sleep bubble, puncturing the sleep bubble.

"Who is it!"

Arnock turned on the bedside lamp in a daze, saw that it was Mo Lin, and gave Mo Lin an annoyed look: "You don't sleep in the middle of the night, what are you doing here?"

"I'm going to school, is your Black Rubik's Cube safe?" Mo Lin asked.

"Of course it's safe, don't you just come and tell me this at night?"

Arnock turned over, intending to continue sleeping.

"Then take me to school, quick."

Maureen pulled Anok up again.

"It's all on vacation, what do you still go to school for? You love studying so much?" Anok said angrily.

"I don't have time to explain to you, you just think I love learning, I have always loved learning." Mo Lin said impatiently.

"All right! All right! You unlucky boy."

Arnock flicked Maureen's head, muttered, got up, grabbed Maureen's arm, disappeared into the bedroom, and appeared in the Room of Requirement.

"What on earth are you going to do?" Arnold yawned and asked, "Running to school in the middle of the night, I don't believe you would love studying so much."

"Stone Arch, Black Rubik's Cube, anyway, it was Helena who asked me to come to Headmaster McGonagall, saying that it was about Payngade. Be careful, Anok."

Mo Lin had already jumped into the picture of the ladder to heaven, ran out of the picture, and then said, "Don't let Payngade find you."

As long as Arnock protects the last Black Rubik's Cube, the stone arch will not be opened by Payngade. Arnold in the painting is very powerful, and Mo Lin can trust this.

"Wait, what Payingade, you speak clearly." Arnock shouted in the painting.

"I'll go to the principal first, and I'll talk to you after I finish the matter."

Mo Lin quickly opened the door of the studio, ran out, and came to the corridor on the seventh floor.

A silence.

The corridor was a bit too quiet, the dim light was flickering gently, and the moonlight cast into the window, making the shadow of the pillar long and crooked, like a monster baring its teeth and claws, looking very gloomy.

It is summer vacation now, and there is not a single student in the school. During the summer vacation, most students would not choose to stay in school. Most of the professors also left the school to go home. At this time, even if Mo Lin yelled, no one would respond to him.

Maureen walked in the empty castle, he thought this experience was amazing, the last time he wandered around the castle at night was last year.

At that time, he was chased around by Hoyle and a fire dragon in the painting. Except for that time, he actually rarely got up at night.

There are still some magic torches burning on the pillars in the corridor, and they are tirelessly sticking to their posts even when they are on holiday.

He quickly ran towards the principal's office on the third floor. The stairs in the castle were still turning. He calculated in his mind that he stopped on the fifth floor, and it would take five minutes for the stairs to turn around.

Standing in the empty corridor, Mo Lin still felt a little beating in his heart.

In the middle of the night, why aren't there even ghosts?At least it's good to have a ghost to accompany me, so I won't be too lonely.

"Anyone? Professor Francis! Headmaster McGonagall?"

Maureen tried to shout, and it would be best if they could respond.

But only the paintings on the wall responded.

"What is it called in the middle of the night?"

"Aren't people allowed to sleep peacefully? I've been insomnia for five days!"

"Who hates you so much, believe it or not, I will release Erha to bite you!"

The people in the painting were babbling in a daze, and they didn't wake up. They continued to sleep after Mo Lin quarreled and made dissatisfied voices.

Mo Lin closed his mouth wisely, and when the stairs turned around, he quickly ran to the third floor, turned a corner from the corridor, and ran towards the principal's office.

"Be strict with yourself!"

Mo Lin yelled at the stone monster, and the stone monster turned around and told him to go to the principal's office.

But the principal's office was empty.

"Principal McGonagall?" Maureen called.

"Why is it you again!" came the voice of Binos from the ceiling, he was sitting on a chair, combing his beard with his chin in his hand, it was obvious that he cherished his beard, "The principal is not here, you What are you doing here at night!"

"Is the principal not here?"

Morin recognized this former headmaster, Binos, who often yelled to lock him in the cellar and release rotten eggs, while the other headmasters were all dozing off.

"Of course I'm not here, it's a holiday now! Are you here for confinement?" Binos said angrily.

"No, if not here—then good night."

Maureen turned and left the principal's office. If he thought correctly, Principal McGonagall and Professor Francis must be at the stone arch at the entrance of the castle, and he should go there directly to find them.

He ran to the first floor, opened the gate of the castle with difficulty, got out, and came outside the castle.

It was pitch black outside the castle, and even Hagrid's hut in the distance didn't have any lights. The air was a bit too quiet, only the chirping of insects was here and there, and the willows growing on the hillside swayed in the wind, like a group of miserable ghosting.

"I really don't like coming to school at this time." Mo Lin muttered.

With the help of the bright moonlight, Mo Lin saw a few figures at the stone arch not far away, and he hurriedly ran over there.

But he suddenly remembered something, and stopped after a few steps.
