Hogwarts Rising Again

Chapter 54 The Fat Lady's Creator

The fat lady pulled a chair from the portrait next door and sat down, with an infatuated look on her face:
"It's been a long time. A handsome wandering painter saw a beautiful woman washing clothes by the river. The plump and moving figure touched him. He even waved his magic wand, conjured up a brush, and painted That beautiful woman was painted, and I became me. That painter has a real eye, and he is my favorite!"

The fat lady turned around in a circle, raised her skirt slightly, and a blush appeared on her face: "You have the same vision as him, don't you?"

The expression on Hugo's face became very strange, he tried hard to restrain himself from laughing, Mo Lin pushed Hugo with his elbow to make him hold back the laughter.

"Yes, Fat Lady, that painter really has vision. I don't know the name of the person with such superb painting skills? Are there any other paintings that are widely circulated?"

Maureen also tried his best to sound very admirable.

The fat lady's eyes became very obsessed, as if recalling the past that she missed, she said shyly: "That handsome painter wears a magical wizard hat, his name is well known in the wizarding world, everyone knows Appreciate the great painter, yes, you have heard of him, the brave and fearless adventurer, the genius adventurer and painter who combines the best of all men in the world, Godric Gryffindor!"

"What? Gryffindor?"

The expressions on the faces of Mo Lin and Hugo froze instantly, and they were both shocked by the news.

They have never heard of these things, and they don't know that Mr. Gryffindor, one of the four founders of Hogwarts, is actually the creator of the fat lady's portrait!
"But... such an important matter is not mentioned in the book!"

It took Maureen a long time to come to his senses. If the Fat Lady was a portrait created by Gryffindor, then the painting of the Fat Lady is a priceless treasure in the wizarding world!It could almost be regarded as a treasure preserved in a wizarding history museum.

"That's because I'm his most satisfying work, and he doesn't want too many people to know. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't agree to guard Gryffindor Tower for him! Men in the world are heartless, but he Except one."

The fat lady held her chin, tapped her cheek lightly with her fat index finger, and seemed to miss Mr. Gryffindor very much.

Mo Lin and Hugo looked at each other, not knowing how to answer.

Most people probably don't know this news, because when they see the fat lady, they just say a password at most, and the fat lady opens the door to let them in. Few people would ask about the fat lady's past.

The fat lady is still intoxicated with good memories: "Why can't I meet such a perfect man? I mean, it would be great if he could come out and walk around from time to time. I haven't seen him a few times, maybe It would be nice if we could go for a walk occasionally in the middle of the night."

"Walking? With whom?" Hugo asked in surprise.

"I mean the portrait of Mr. Gryffindor! The portraits of the four founders are all in the principal's office, and they rarely leave there." The fat lady explained.

Mo Lin tried to imagine the scene of the two people in the painting walking in the painting of the castle late at night, sitting by the clear lake, watching the unicorn drinking water on the bank?This situation is really weird.

Although this incident was shocking, it was not what Maureen wanted to know.He asked again: "Fat lady, you have been in the castle for so long, you must know many people in the paintings, do you know Sir Cadogan? Where did he come from?"

The fat lady put away her obsessive look, and when she heard Sir Cadogan's words, she said disdainfully: "He! It's just an unknown guy painted by an unknown artist who spends restless days bragging around. He is The disgrace of our Castle Portraits!"

"But how can a portrait of a small person hang in Hogwarts? I mean, shouldn't Hogwarts' paintings be all famous people? For example, you were drawn by Mr. Gryffindor, Ka Sir Dorgan should have been painted by a famous person, right?" Mo Lin said.

"Okay, okay! You're right." The Fat Lady said reluctantly, "But Sir Cadogan was not painted by a famous artist. Protecting the village of Hogsmeade, he was famous for his reckless rush to die with the two-legged dragon. I heard that he saved a former headmaster at that time! I bought him a bargain and let his portrait be placed in the castle He's a native of Hogsmeade."

"Sir Cadogan's home is in Hogsmeade?"

Maureen had heard of Hogsmeade, which, like Diagon Alley, was the place where wizards gathered most.Although it is not as prosperous as Diagon Alley, because it is very close to Hogwarts school, students above the third grade can go to that place on weekends, and there are many interesting magic shops there.

"Okay, are you two finished asking your questions? I'm going to continue painting my nails," the fat lady said.

"Then let's not bother, can you open the door and let us in?" Mo Lin asked.

"Password." The fat lady said in a drawl.

"Come on, Fat Lady, we are talking so happily, do we still need a password?" Hugo frowned when he remembered the Fat Lady's password.

"Password." The fat lady emphasized again.

"You tell me." Hugo said to Mo Lin.

"I won't say it! You say it."

"I don't want to say either."

Both Mo Lin and Hugo were unwilling to say that sentence, but the Fat Lady refused to open the door if they didn't say it, so they could only wait in the corridor outside, and then two third-grade boys stopped at the door , They are also unwilling to say the password that annoys the boys.

"She is sexist, it's too much." Hugo couldn't help but said.

"No way, no one can convince her. The prefect Nelson has already told the professor, and maybe he will hire a psychological counselor to enlighten her."

Mo Lin spread his hands, and asked a psychological counselor for a person in a lovelorn painting. He didn't know if it would work, but it was worth a try.

After waiting 10 minutes, a Gryffindor girl finally climbed the stairs.

"Men are heartless." The girl glanced at a group of boys at the door, and then said frankly.

"Yes, dear." The Fat Lady opened the door.

All the boys were very angry, including Mo Lin who said something against his will just now. These words were simply trampling on the dignity of the boys.

"When that girl said the password, why didn't she feel any guilt at all? I bet you, she must have said the password so confidently because no boy wanted it." Hugo said angrily.

"What did you say?"

The girl turned around and gave Hugo a hard look. Hugo quickly shut his mouth, glanced elsewhere, and whistled.

Maureen snickered, and found a place in the corner with Hugo, and they began to discuss matters concerning Sir Cadogan.If you find Sir Cadogan's home in Hogsmeade, there is a chance of finding Sir Cadogan's portrait!
"Are we still going to Hogsmeade village? You know, first-year students must abide by the school rules and cannot leave the school casually." Hugo didn't look happy.

"Really? You still have such an idea?" Mo Lin looked at Hugo suspiciously: "I want to find out who planned all this, you don't want to find out who put a mark on your back person?"

Hugo hesitated for a moment before saying, "Well, what about this matter actually? Uncle George opened a branch of Weasley's Whiz Workshop in Hogsmeade. My dad is the store manager there, and I I don't want to be caught by my dad there."

No wonder Hugo was reluctant to leave there, otherwise, according to his previous temperament, it would be unreasonable not to run out of school to play.

"Then I'll find a way to go to Hogsmeade village alone to find Sir Cadogan's house," Molin said.
