Hogwarts Rising Again

Chapter 55 The way to leave school

"How are you going to leave school? You don't have my Uncle Harry's Invisibility Cloak, let alone you, not even James and Albus! I'm afraid they will be even more restless after they have the Invisibility Cloak." Hugo said.

"That's a real problem. I don't know much about the secret passages out of the school. James said one was behind Gregory the sycophant on the seventh floor, but he seemed to say that one was blocked by the headmaster."

When Morin held the Marauder's Map last time, he saw a few secret passages on the Marauder's Map. He didn't pay much attention to it at the time, and now he regrets that he didn't write them down.

"I remember that passage, when James and Albus sneaked out, they were caught by Principal McGonagall, and the two of them were locked up for a week. This happened last year, when their mother sent Lily and I just saw how the Howler letter was written."

Hugo still had fun thinking about that.

"Apart from this, do you know any other passages?" Mo Lin asked.

Hugo shook his head regretfully: "My dad mentioned that there are seven passages to leave the school, but my mother rushed in and asked my dad not to reveal it. She didn't want me to sneak out of the school. Really, when they go to school by themselves, don't Do you still run outside every day?"

Hugo's mother is Hermione, a witch with excellent magic, serious and not to be trifled with.Although Mo Lin has never met, Hugo said that the good student Rose is a copy of his mother. In this way, Mo Lin probably met Ms. Hermione.

"James and Albus should know, right? Let's go to him and ask."

Maureen looked around, but unfortunately, there was no sign of James and Albus in the Gryffindor lounge.

"They must have gone to Hogsmeade. Today is Sunday. It's strange that they can stay at school." Hugo said.

The absence of James and Albus meant that it was impossible for Maureen to leave school on Sunday, so he could only give up the idea temporarily and ask later in the evening.

In the afternoon, they started to make up their homework. The whole day yesterday was Quidditch training and searching for the statue of Sir Cadogan, so they didn't finish their homework.Mo Lin quickly completed the nine key points of the thesis on the Growth Curse in the Charms class, and then threw his thesis to Hugo to copy, and he picked up Hugo's astronomical star map and started filling it.

"I bet I'll fail my astronomy exam at the end of the year."

Mo Lin felt a sense of guilt while copying. It wasn’t that he didn’t study astronomy well, it’s that the star positions he saw were completely different from others, and he hasn’t figured out what’s going on until now.

"Don't be discouraged. At least your other courses are top-notch. Professor Flitwick is full of praise for you. What you should worry about is the Muggle Studies class. Have you done the schematic diagram of the Muggle TV remote control that Professor Charles arranged?" Rain Guo asked.

"I did a little bit, but what I'm not sure about is what are the 1 to 9 on the remote for?" Morin asked.

Hugo thought for a while, and said with certainty: "That's for making calls. I heard that every Muggle has a phone. If they want to watch a channel, they can call the host of the channel and ask them to turn the TV on. Get to that channel!"

"That's really troublesome, isn't it? To change the channel, you need to make a phone call." Mo Lin found out the half-finished Muggle studies from a pile of books, and wrote down Hugo's answer.

"Yeah, Muggles are really stupid. It's not like we listen to the radio, tap with a wand, and say a spell." Hugo agreed.

After James and Albus came back at night, Maureen immediately found them and asked them the secret way to leave the school.

"The way out of the school, tsk tsk! I like restless kids." James smirked and patted Maureen on the shoulder.

"Help! I have to leave school to find someone." Mo Lin said solemnly.

James didn't ask Molin who he was looking for. Pranksters like them have a lot of secrets, and the last thing they like to do is for others to pry into their secrets, so James won't ask Molin either. What is Lin doing.

"Let's think about it, the Whooping Willow passageway won't work, the passageway behind the big mirror on the fifth floor has collapsed, and the passageway behind Gregory's statue was blocked by Principal McGonagall...I suggest you go to the basement homeschool." The passage to the elves' kitchen." James took out a bottle of butterbeer from his schoolbag, which was a non-alcoholic drink brought back from Hogsmeade, and poured a glass for Maureen and Hugo.

"The house-elf passage? There is a passage from the kitchen to the outside?" Maureen had never been to the Hogwarts kitchen, but he knew that there were many house-elves in Hogwarts.

"Otherwise, how do you think the things we eat come from? Food is one of the five exceptions to Gump's basic law of transformation. The things we eat cannot be conjured out of thin air, but can only be purchased by house elves in Hogsmeade village." ’ said James.

"So that's it! I'm afraid no one knows that there is a secret passage in the kitchen, right?" Molin knew where the kitchen was. It was mentioned in "Hogwarts, A School History" that the kitchen is right below the castle hall. The basement, but didn't know there was a way out of the kitchen.

"Not many people know about it. I discovered this by accident. The last time I went to the kitchen to steal food, I said that it would be great if I could leave school and go out to play, and then they showed me a way. Those little guys are hospitable , Every time I go, they give me a lot of cakes, and I’m embarrassed if I don’t accept them.”

After James finished speaking, he warned: "Molin, you are from a wizard family, you should understand what house elves don't like? Don't be like Hugo's mother."

"What happened to Hugo's mother?" Mo Lin asked puzzled.

Hugo took a sip of butter beer and spread his hands: "My mother still refuses to give up on the House Elf Welfare Promotion Association, and I can't help it. I'm still a member of this association! But I don't know the seal of the association." Where did you lose it. James, it seems that you also joined the club last time, right?"

"Yeah, it wasn't your mother who was threatening, that badge is really ugly, how did she come up with the idea of ​​making the badge into the shape of an elf wearing clothes and taking Galleons? I threw it at home before I came to Hogwarts , I don't want to be invited out by those hospitable little guys when I go to the kitchen." James pouted.

Of course Maureen knew the position of the house-elves. They were proud of working for wizards and ashamed of being free. The idea of ​​working for free was deeply rooted in the minds of the house-elves. He would feel insulted, and it would be better for him not to get involved in such troublesome matters.

But Maureen is going to Hogsmeade to find Sir Cadogan's home. It sounds like it's not an easy task. He has to find a free weekend to sneak to Hogsmeade, otherwise he will go to the village at night. Finding someone is tantamount to being blind.

"How do I get into the kitchen?" Maureen asked.

"In an unassuming corner of the corridor leading to the Hufflepuff lounge, there is a painting of a large silver bowl of fruit, just scratch that pear." James yawned, left the common room and went back to the dormitory went.

　Someone complained that the cover is too ugly... how can you... okay!I also want to complain a long time ago, but I can't find a satisfactory cover. If anyone has a good base map, please share it with me. .I'm going to find an artist.
