Hogwarts Melon Eater

"Quick!" Nymphadora quickened her pace, she saw a figure walking towards them not far from the castle, with an aquiline nose, shoulder-length black hair, and looked like a black bat from a distance.

The last person the Hogwarts expedition wanted to see right now—if Professor Snape was entangled, that would mean trouble would surely follow.

"Go ahead, I'm going to stop Professor Snape," Nymphadora looked at death as she pointed at the abrupt tree, "It's a willow, you have to throw stones at the scars on the branches, It will stop attacking, there is a secret passage under the tree - leading to Hogsmeade Village, do it! Quick, quick!"

She ran towards Professor Snape.

Taking advantage of the time Nymphadora sacrificed for herself, several people hurried into action.

But after picking up the stones and throwing them for a long time, no one hit a scar. Harry looked at his hand holding the stone and doubted his athleticism for the first time.

"Why don't we just get close to it and press the scar?" George suggested, "Otherwise, it won't work for another 10,000 years—"

Ron opened his mouth wide. The tree was absolutely fine. When he heard George say that he was approaching, it stretched out a branch and swung George away. Fred hurried over to help George up.

"Hey—this tree is so irritable!"

Anna pinched her chin and thought—the secret passage under the beating willow leads to the screaming shack. The main purpose of this house is to prevent Lupin, the moon-faced Lupin in 'The Marauder', from turning into a werewolf and hurting the students.

Werewolves can't attack animals, so the three remaining 'Marauders'—James, Sirius, and Peter Pettigrew—have all practiced Animagus in order to accompany Lupin when he transforms.

Every time Lupin transforms, it is Animagus who climbs the beating willow and presses the scab for the little dwarf of the mouse.

This shows that 'Punching Willow', as the name suggests, can only hit people.

"Harry, what about Mr. Mighty?"

Harry pulled out a fluffy yellow ball from his cape, "Om—"

Anna put Mr. Mighty on the ground and pointed to the scab on the willow. "Mr. Mighty, go and touch the scar on the trunk."

Mr. Mighty quickly showed its usefulness, a fluffy ball climbed up the willow nimbly, until Mr. Might pressed the scar, the willow didn't respond at all.

"Did you succeed?" Anna tried to get close to the punching willow.

"I'll come," Fred took a step closer to the willow tree, without the slightest movement, very safe, "Come on! He won't attack people!"

As they ran to the entrance of the secret passage, they saw Nymphadora standing beside her with a look of 'who am I' and 'where am I' on her face. Professor Snape had easily conquered Nymphadora. The built line of defense came towards the beater willow.

Several people hurriedly entered the secret passage, but at this time, a person who was unexpected by everyone appeared.

"Er—Professor Snape, um—I mean I have a question I want to ask you," Percy suddenly appeared, and Snape frowned and was forced to stop.

Percy held a small notebook and seemed to have made up her mind, "A problem with potions has been bothering me for a long time, I have to figure it out today..."

"Percy!" Ron screamed in a low voice, "I read that right! That's Percy!"

"He's actually helping us!" George was horrified.

"Unbelievable!" Fred doubted.

"Is this surprising?" Harry asked, "Isn't he your brother too?"

Well, straight to the soul, Harry's question is very level.

Maybe Percy, as the third child of the Weasley family, never got the approval of his younger brothers.

Anna knew that all seven of the Weasleys were on good terms, but there was a degree of 'good'—Percy, serious, neat, and bespectacled, was the object of Mrs. Weasley's compliment, among the seven It's the one that's rather out of place.

The twins like to play tricks on him, Ron and Ginny don't like to listen to him nagging, and the two brothers Bill and Charlie have the same personality as the twins - everyone likes to joke, only he is the outlier among Weasley's children.

In addition, as the third child born, he should have experienced the Weasleys when he was young—a wealthy pure-blood family. With the increase of younger brothers and sisters, the burden of the Weasleys increased, and he realized it again. Hard life.

He knew the importance of money, and his lack of a voice among his siblings made him particularly hungry for power and attention—probably this is what led him to follow the Ministry of Magic later.

But what can't be forgotten is that his family finally made him choose to come back, to the Burrow, to his family—

Just like now, he resolutely stood in front of 'one of the people who need to please on the road to success', Dean Slytherin, to buy time for his brother.

The three Weasleys were silent.

"Well, maybe he's not so... um... Anyway, he has to go back quickly, so that we still have time to clear the goblin out of his room..." Fred was not confident.

"What!" Ron was surprised. "All the goblins we cleaned yesterday are in Percy's room!"

"Not all of them..." George smiled. "We put two in your room since you weren't there in the morning."

Ron and the twins ran into the secret passage, while Anna and Harry looked at each other and quickly followed.

This secret passage is very long, a bit like a pipe. It is much wider than the secret passage of Honey Duke. Fred said it was dug by a 'higher goblin'.

After a long journey of about ten minutes, a sharp turn, a faint light appeared in front of everyone.

It was a dusty room, the windows were sealed with wooden boards, the wind made a "woo woo-" sound through the gaps between the boards, the walls were covered with yellowed paper, and the floor was full of Dirty mud spots, messy footprints, and even long-dry blood.

It looks like the scene of some criminal case.

Harry grabbed Mr. Mighty who was eager to try, but he couldn't eat this dust, it was unlucky.

"Another 92 Diagon Alley!" Fred looked around, as if '92 Diagon Alley' had become synonymous with dirty, messy, and horrible houses.

"Dudu? Dudu? Dulululu? Could there be some house-elves living here too - I suggest, we should not go upstairs this time..." George glanced at the broken wooden stairs in the corner with lingering fear.

"Agreed!" Ron pulled Harry to hide behind George.

"Has anyone fought a bear here?" Fred took a peek at Anna and moved away the lame wooden chair that was blocking the way - the furniture here seemed to be smashed on purpose.

Anna noticed Fred's gaze and explained with a smile, "It's my first time here, and I haven't had time." There are no bears, but a werewolf.

"Hey! There's a door there!" Ron stuck his head out from behind George and pointed to an inconspicuous corner where there was indeed a wooden door.

"Can you open it?" Anna kicked the wooden door with her foot, but the wooden door remained motionless, "Hey! I don't believe that there is a door in this world that I, Anna, can't open!"

"Anna! Calm down!" Harry was terrified. He thought that Anna was going to use the 'Terrorist Unlock Charm' again, and grabbed Anna's arm, which was groping in the blue floral cloth bag, "Don't be impulsive!"

Anna took out a black hairpin with a strange expression on her face, "What are you impulsive about, I can calm down—"

She looked enthusiastic, "Boys, let me show you a magical Muggle technology—"

"Pick the lock."
