With the death of Professor Quirrell, the most unfortunate ones are the young wizards of Hogwarts.
They have to face the dilemma of not having a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor for another semester.
What’s worse is that Snape has taken over the substitute teaching task of this course.
Think about it, those young wizards now not only have to endure Snape’s sarcasm and ridicule in the Potions class, but also have to continue to endure his venomous tongue in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.
The only good news is that they can finally learn some practical knowledge in this class.
Afterwards, Hogwarts ushered in a rare period of peace.
Voldemort, who was hiding somewhere, did not come out to make trouble, and the ban on the castle was lifted.
During this time, Mavica and La Ruti thrived in the Forbidden Forest under the care of Twilight Sparkle.
And Hagrid, under the spur of Mavica, also worked hard and finally passed the dragon tamer’s exam successfully on Easter Day. It’s really gratifying!
After Easter, the Quidditch Tour of this school year is about to come to an end.
The penultimate match is just around the corner, and the final match will be held in a month.
The two sides of this duel are – Ravenclaw VS Hufflepuff.
Although Gryffindor College is now far ahead in the points in the tour, 20 points higher than the second-placed Slytherin, and 80 points ahead of the third-placed Hufflepuff.
But this ranking is not the final decision.
Because Hufflepuff and Gryffindor still have one game to play, and Ravenclaw still has two chances, Ravenclaw still has a chance to overtake.
The little eagles and badgers, who originally had the best relationship, are now in a cold war, and the communication between them is completely interrupted.
Susan, who is caught in the middle of the”three three three”, has to come secretly every time she comes to Ye Ting.
However, in terms of Quidditch, the morale of the Ravenclaw players is high.
In the first game before, Ye Ting and Zhang Qiu joined hands to attack, and they defeated Slytherin with an overwhelming advantage, which was really gratifying.
Hufflepuff is not even as good as Slytherin. The Ravenclaw players seem to have foreseen the dawn of victory in advance and their confidence has doubled.
On the morning of the game day, Ye Ting was sitting at the Ravenclaw table, enjoying breakfast.
Suddenly, he caught a glimpse of Ms. Grey signaling to him from a distance.
This
In the corner of the hall, the beautiful female ghost floated to the boy and whispered an important news:
Professor Dumbledore had left the castle and went to London because he was going to submit an application for the establishment of a dragon farm in Hogwarts.
Upon hearing this news, Ye Ting couldn’t help but laugh.
It turned out that he was the initiator who made Dumbledore leave Hogwarts.
But he immediately realized that the opportunity he had been waiting for for a long time had finally arrived.
Ye Ting clenched the bacon and fried egg sandwich in his hand and ate it in big mouthfuls.
Today is destined to be a busy day. He must eat and drink enough to cope with the next challenge.
Many little wizards have gathered on the Quidditch field, and they are eagerly looking forward to the start of the game.
Although the match was scheduled to start at ten o’clock, enthusiastic spectators had already entered the venue before nine o’clock to grab the best viewing seats.
At this time, Harry and Ron went against the flow of people and ran hurriedly to the faculty and staff viewing seats.
They had just learned an astonishing news from Professor Quirrell’s soul:
Snape had gone to the abandoned corridor on the fourth floor without telling anyone!
This news made the two of them nervous, and they had to notify Professor Dumbledore as soon as possible!
Harry and Ron hurried to the stage. At this time, only Professor McGonagall was sitting in the stands, and Professor Flitwick and Professor Sprout were walking towards here from a distance.
Harry said breathlessly:
“Professor, I have a discovery… I guess… Professor Snape… someone may want to steal the Philosopher’s Stone. I must immediately… tell Professor Dumbledore about this.”
Professor McGonagall frowned and looked at him with a scrutinizing look.
“Professor Dumbledore is not in school at the moment. He has gone to London and will not be back until tomorrow.”
She shook her head slightly and said firmly,”Potter, I don’t know how you knew about the Philosopher’s Stone, but please rest assured that it is absolutely safe. We have taken strict protective measures to ensure that it is safe.”
“But, Professor……”Harry tried to explain
“Potter, I know what I’m talking about.”
Professor McGonagall’s tone became serious,” I suggest you focus on the game and think less about unrealistic things. If you can get into less trouble, lose fewer points, and win the house cup for Gryffindor next year, I’ll thank God.”
Faced with the professor’s reprimand, everyone had to leave in disappointment.
Ron muttered softly,”Harry, Professor Quirrell is right. Snape is indeed the only one who hasn’t come to the stadium yet.……”
“Dumbledore is not at Hogwarts either.” Harry concluded:”Snape will definitely steal the Philosopher’s Stone as soon as the game starts.”
“”What should we do then?” Ron asked anxiously.
Harry’s eyes involuntarily turned to the Ravenclaw locker room.
They had originally planned to ask Ye Ting for help – in their minds, Ye Ting was undoubtedly the most powerful little wizard.
You know, he easily defeated the troll in front of them, and could even ride a dragon to drive away the dark wizard.
However, unfortunately, Ye Ting was going to participate in the game today, and he was probably preparing in the Ravenclaw locker room at this moment.
Harry recalled the importance that others attached to the Quidditch game, and he understood that he could not expect Ye Ting to give up the game to accompany them on the adventure.
“Let’s act now and steal the Philosopher’s Stone.” Harry made a resolute decision.
Ron thought about it and nodded.
In the restricted area on the fourth floor of Hogwarts Castle, there was silence.
Harry and Ron, wearing invisibility cloaks, carefully sneaked in here.
Seeing the slightly open wooden door, Harry suddenly recalled that he had lost his first kiss here…ah, it was a memory that he couldn’t bear to look back on.
The two tiptoed into the room and saw Fluffy, the three-headed dog who was supposed to be guarding the door, lying on the ground, immersed in a sweet dream.
This scene made them more convinced that Snape had been here.
Ron held his breath and tiptoed to the trap door. He bent down and gently pulled the pull ring on the trap door with trembling fingers.
The door opened with a bang, revealing a bottomless hole on the ground.
“I can’t see anything… It’s too dark… There’s not even a ladder.” Ron’s voice was trembling.
Harry looked around, picked up a broken brick, and threw it down without hesitation.
They waited nervously, but there was no expected crisp sound of bricks falling from below, but a muffled sound could be heard faintly.
“There should be something underneath, we can jump down.”Harry said decisively.
Ron hesitated, he was worried that if there was nothing underneath, wouldn’t this jump be a way to his own death?
This was too risky!
However, the reckless Harry had already walked to the edge of the cave.
“”I’ll jump down first to explore the way!” he announced proudly,”If I land safely, you can follow me. If there is anything wrong down there, you should immediately send Hedwig to report to Professor Dumbledore.”
“All right. Ron stood at the door, looking at Harry with worry in his eyes.
Harry jumped into the bottomless passage. He fell as fast as a meteor. After just a few seconds, he found that he did not fall on the hard ground, but landed steadily on a layer of soft things.
“”No problem, Ron!” Harry’s voice was full of excitement, and he shouted towards the cave entrance:”Jump quickly, it’s safe here!”
Hearing Harry’s shout, Ron hesitated for two seconds, jumped down, and landed beside Harry.
He stepped on his feet and asked curiously:”This place is really nice, soft, I don’t know what it is?” (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)
Harry shook his head,”I don’t know, maybe it’s some kind of magical plant. They are spread here, probably to protect us from falling.”
“”Really, it’s a good thing that these plants are here.” Ron screamed as he finished speaking.
The seemingly harmless plant stretched out its snake-like tendrils and tightly wrapped around his ankles.
At the same time, Harry also felt his legs being firmly bound by the vines.
They struggled hard, trying to get rid of these annoying vines. However, the more they struggled, the tighter the vines became.
“What the hell is this?” Harry yelled
“”I don’t even know!” Ron shouted anxiously,”Who would recognize this thing!”
“Did Professor Sprout mention that in class?” Harry tried to remember.
“I don’t know! Even if I did, I’ve completely forgotten it!” Ron wailed.
“Magic stone……”Harry muttered to himself
“Don’t mention that stuff���”It’s over, Harry! We’re almost strangled to death by these vines!” Ron’s voice was filled with despair.
“This… this is… the Devil’s Snare! Quickly… use the [Fire Spell]】!”
A stuttering voice suddenly answered Harry’s question….
If it were a few months ago, Harry and Ron would not want to listen to this stuttering voice.
But at this critical moment, the familiar stuttering sound seemed to have become the most beautiful melody, like the first ray of sunshine at dawn, penetrating the darkness and despair in their hearts.[]
Harry reacted quickly, and before his arms were completely bound by the vines, he quickly chanted the spell:
“”Flames blazing!”
Instantly, flames emerged, forming a stream of fire that illuminated the darkness.
The vines seemed to feel the threat of the flames, and like shadows afraid of the sun, they quickly retreated and loosened their fatal entanglement with the two teenagers.
Those originally hideous plants twisted and twitched, automatically untying the restraints wrapped around them.
Harry and Ron finally broke free from the clutches of the vines and regained their freedom.
Harry struggled to stand up, tore off the black vines that remained on his body, patted the dust, his eyes slightly red, and his gratitude was beyond words:”Thank you, Professor Quirrell! Thank you for saving us!”
Ron also stood up shakily, still with lingering fears:”Why are such dangerous things placed here? We almost died!”
Quirrell’s ghost was listening, secretly cursing the two ungrateful boys for not knowing how lucky they are.
I don’t know when those double-standard Hogwarts professors changed the biting cabbage to the Devil’s Snare, otherwise, you two little bastards would have broken their legs just by coming down.
But on the surface, he still maintained a concerned attitude and patiently explained:”This… this is a protective measure.……”
He reminded again:”This is a restricted area of the school, not a place you should come to.”
Harry lowered his voice anxiously and asked:”But you said before that Snape came here and he wanted to steal the Philosopher’s Stone, right?”
“You…how did you know?……”Qi Luo’s voice seemed very surprised.
“We guessed it a long time ago.” Ron laughed triumphantly.
Quirrell’s ghost looked at Ron steadily, a complex emotion flashed in his eyes, and then he sighed deeply, as if he had made up his mind.
That lifelike acting – it can be said that he performed exceptionally well today.
“It’s… him!” Quirrell’s voice was trembling, and one could tell that he was deeply disappointed and heartbroken towards someone.”I didn’t expect Severus would go this far… For the sake of power, he would even… kill me.”
“Professor Quirrell, is Snape really working for that man?”
Harry asked with confusion and worry.
“Prostrate……”He paused, as if he was also afraid of that name.”……”Demon.”
Quirrell’s body trembled violently when he heard the name, as if his deepest fear was touched.
“Harry, don’t mention that name again! 5.9” Ron also seemed a little panicked. He lowered his voice, fearing that the name would attract Voldemort himself.
“Okay, but Vol… the mysterious man is not here now, so we have nothing to be afraid of. Although Harry said this, he still changed his address obediently.
“But… it’s still too dangerous.” Quirrell shook his head, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes,”He… will hear it.……”
“Professor Quirrell, can you come in with us?”
Harry suddenly thought of something, and a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes,”It’s still a bit difficult for the two of us to deal with Snape. I hope you can help us.”
Ron’s mouth twitched slightly. He obviously doubted that Quirrell, the ghost, could be of any help, but finally swallowed his words and just nodded silently.
Quirrell looked at Harry, and seemed to be very moved. He nodded and said,”You are worthy of being the boy who survived… Potter, you have the courage to challenge Snape… You are so brave. Okay, I’ll go with you. As your professor… Even if I’m dead, I’m willing to use my wisdom to help you!”
Harry and Ron immediately gained more confidence, and Ron couldn’t help but asked curiously,”Professor, how come you are here?”
“I also want to stop Snape’s plot.” Quirrell said in a deep voice as he led the way,”Although I am just a ghost, I also want to do my part.”
“Professor, I’m sorry.” Ron was suddenly moved.”Although your teaching level is not very good and your magic is really lame, your courage really impressed us. We misunderstood you before.……”
“Um, thank you for the compliment? Mr. Weasley!” Quirrell was almost mad.
