Hogwarts starts with stealing power

Chapter 392 No such person found, crisis temporarily resolved

When Principal Dumbledore left, the auditorium suddenly exploded!

The little wizards were chattering and discussing the incident of Sirius entering Hogwarts.

The little wizard's doubts were the same as their original doubts.

"How did Sirius escape the dementors and enter Hogwarts, and the dementors couldn't find him?!"

"If the Fat Lady hadn't refused to open the door for him, would he have rushed into Gryffindor? What exactly did he want to do? Want to kill us in our sleep?"

A little wizard said loudly, his expression frightened.

When Harry heard this, he couldn't help but retort: ​​"He can't, he has never killed a little wizard!"

The little wizard asked him: "If he didn't come to kill us, then why did he enter Gryffindor?"

Harry choked on his words. He didn't know why Sirius came in. Could it be that he really came to find him?

Lin Xia suddenly said: "Don't you know, Sirius also studied at Hogwarts and was a Gryffindor student."

The little wizard was surprised, "Did you come here specifically to visit the school?"

"Will you do this kind of thing when you grow up? Don't you find it boring?"

"I don't think that if Hogwarts refuses to let me in, I will want to sneak in and see the college I once attended."

A Ravenclaw student shouted: "So how did he get in?"

The student who was also a Ravenclaw replied: "Could it be Apparition?"

A Hufflepuff student said: "Maybe he's disguised himself."

"Maybe he flew in!"

Hermione was a little angry when she heard these unreliable speculations: "Please, am I the only one who has read "Hogwarts: A School History"?"

She looked at Harry and Ron.

Harry and Ron were confused, and they hadn't read the book.

Lin Xia replied: "It was said in "Hogwarts: A School History" that the castle is not only protected by walls, but also has various defensive magics to prevent others from sneaking in.

At the same time, Hogwarts banned phantoms, so he had to use some way to disguise himself to deceive the dementors.

But if you just deceive the dementors, it will be easily exposed. Every entrance to the school is guarded by professors.

Even if the dementors don't notice it, the professor will. I think he might have come in through some secret passages. "

Ron said subconsciously: "But even all the secret passages that Filch knows about, the school has sent people to strictly guard them..."

Hermione said calmly: "Obviously, Sirius knows a secret passage that even Filch doesn't know about.

Hogwarts is so big and has such a long history. Filch has only been the administrator for a few years, so he can't possibly know everything.

If Filch was so omnipotent, why couldn't he find the secret room in the first place? "

Harry asked: "Then what are we going to do now, are we just going to stay in the Great Hall and wait?"

Lin Xia's expression moved slightly. She had an idea to use her status as an outstanding student to join the inspection.

When she walked to the exit, she found that a large number of outstanding students, all senior students, had gathered here.

Percy was guarding the largest entrance and exit. He was not an outstanding student, but that didn't stop him from being arrogant in front of these outstanding students.

"No, no, no, I have to follow Dumbledore's advice, I can't let you out," Percy said.

Cedric was among them, fighting hard.

"Perhaps you can ask the professor. As outstanding students, our combat effectiveness has been tested by the professor."

Percy said righteously: "Then if you face Sirius, are you sure you can defeat and kill him?"

Without waiting for the top students to answer, Percy continued: "You are not sure, because even the professor is not sure that he can defeat Sirius. If I let you out, I would be irresponsible for your lives!"

What Percy said made sense. Top students couldn't beat him, so obviously this path wouldn't work.

Lin Xia retreated quietly.

She returned to Harry and others and shook her head at them: "Now we can only wait and see what happens."

All the little wizards are gathered in the great hall. Although there may be Sirius wandering outside, the little wizards are all here. There are many people, which can bring a sense of security.

So the little wizards were not very panicked.

Instead, Peeves suddenly appeared, making the little wizard a little annoyed.

They occasionally float on the ceiling, twist their heads and turn their bodies in the opposite direction, and then suddenly appear next to the little wizard, and suddenly let out a scream to scare them.

The little wizard didn't feel uneasy because of Sirius, but screamed again and again because of Peeves.

Seeing that the situation was getting more and more chaotic, and all the outstanding students went to suppress Peeves, Lin Xia's eyes moved slightly and said, "Do you still remember the nursery rhymes that were circulated before?"

Everyone looked confused.

Lin Xia hummed: "There are four people in Hogwarts

One is called Gryffindor, and his bravery is called reckless

A man named Slytherin, whose ambition was called mediocre

One is called Ravenclaw, and her intelligence is called stupidity..."

Harry and Ron recalled that this nursery rhyme had been popular for a while because it was so simple that most little wizards remembered it.

What impressed them most was that this nursery rhyme was spread by the most naughty Peeves.

First, Harry and Ron took the lead in humming loudly, and other little wizards who felt uneasy also started singing.

Gradually, all the little wizards sang along, and the auditorium echoed with the sound of the nursery rhyme.

This nursery rhyme seemed to be very lethal to Peeves. After hearing the melody, even Peeves did not dare to cause trouble again.

On the other side, Dumbledore and other professors inspected the entire Hogwarts inside and out, especially those with picture frames.

Dumbledore even visited the principal's office and asked previous principals, but none of them knew anything about the Fat Lady's whereabouts.

One of the principal's pictures criticized him and said: "Dumbledore, I thought you had been a principal for decades, enough to recognize your identity. Principal is a very dignified profession.

They are usually afraid of me, so how could they take the initiative to tell me about the picture frame they want to protect? "

Dumbledore was criticized by the frame, but he didn't look angry. Instead, he said helplessly: "I thought I could get some news from you."

He thought for a while and asked again: "Are you sure you have told the secret passage you know? Maybe Sirius entered from an unknown secret passage."

Another picture frame of the principal said: "When I was the principal, I devoted all my energy to how to bring good students, and I didn't have any extra energy to explore the secrets of Hogwarts."

Other principals also said: "Every time a new principal is born, Hogwarts will undergo some kind of change. The secret passages that were once accessible will disappear, and there will be very few left... You won't fail. Will know, Dumbledore."

Dumbledore sighed, "I'm sorry, I didn't think well."

He left the principal's office and walked to the third floor.

Suddenly a professor said: "I found where the Fat Lady is!"

Other professors came quickly, and Dumbledore waved his wand and quickly appeared in front of the professor.

He didn't use Apparition, and he couldn't use it.

But as a principal, you still have some privileges in Hogwarts.

Dumbledore asked: "Where is the Fat Lady?"

The professor replied: "She is hiding in the map of Argyll County on the third floor. She is in a very bad mental state. I tried to talk to her, but she refused to answer my questions.

It seems that she did not hear the command and refused to let Blake in. Blake attacked her and caused great mental harm to her. "

Mag said sympathetically: "I'm sorry that I didn't stand with her at that time."

Dumbledore: "Then when the Fat Lady is more mentally stable, I will go talk to her. Now it's Sirius Black. Have you found any trace of him?"

The other professors all shook their heads, "No."

"The entire fourth floor has been searched, and he's not there. Filch has also looked in the basement classroom, and he's not there either."

Dumbledore asked: "Where is the Observatory? Where is Professor Trelawney's room? Where is the Owlery?"

"No, principal, we have searched all these places."

Dumbledore sighed: "Well, I also guessed that Black wouldn't hang out in these places."

Snape suddenly asked: "Headmaster, have you ever thought about how he got in?"

Dumbledore looked serious: "There are many ideas, Severus, but none of them are tenable."

Snape wanted to say something else, but Dumbledore gave him a warning glance.

He said with a very firm tone: "I don't believe that anyone in this castle can help Blake break into it."

Snape did not continue on the topic.

Percy suddenly appeared and walked up to the professor, not knowing how much he had eavesdropped.

He pointed at the dementors outside with some ecstasy.

"Principal, aren't they here to help? Sirius can come in only because of their negligence!"

"No," Dumbledore said coldly, "As long as I am the Headmaster, no Dementor will be able to cross the threshold of this castle."

"Percy." Dumbledore reminded him: "As the president of the student union, your main task is to protect the little wizard, not to leave without permission. We don't need your help."

Percy looked a little embarrassed, and his face instantly turned pale.

-

The professors' search has yet to yield results.

The little wizard found that Percy had returned to the auditorium, somewhat distraught and looking not good.

Ron said: "He must be very unhappy. If something doesn't go his way at home, he will have this expression, which makes his mother always care about him."

George: "Are we the youngest jealous?"

Fred: "Maybe he can be like Percy and act like a spoiled child to his mother."

George: "Oh, Mom, am I your favorite little son!"

Fred: "No, Ron, you're just being naughty!"

Ron's face turned ugly instantly and he yelled at his brothers: "Shut up!"

Lin Xia also agreed and said: "If you have nothing to do, just shut up and don't cause trouble."

Seeing what Lin Xia said, the twins stopped teasing Ron and mingled with the little wizards to interview them about their thoughts.

They were not worried about the safety of Hogwarts and decided to use what happened today as material to write in the "Hogwarts New Style" magazine.

You know, they were the first to discover that the Fat Lady was missing, so they could write most of the material however they wanted.

Just one day passed.

The professors couldn't find Sirius, so they finally asked the students to leave the auditorium and return to their dormitories.

Unfortunately, although the Fat Lady was found, she did not return to work immediately. Her mental state was still unstable.

The school had to replace it with a portrait of Lord Cadogan and his fat gray horse.

This made the Gryffindor students very unhappy.

Sir Cadogan spent half his time provoking others to duel him, and spent the other half coming up with complex and almost ridiculous passwords, which he had to change at least twice a day!

"He's completely crazy!" Seamus Finnigan said angrily to Percy. "Can't there be a different portrait?"

"No other portrait would accept this job," Percy said. "All the portraits were frightened when they heard what happened to the Fat Lady, and many even refused to see the little wizard.

When I made this request, only Sir Cadogan was brave enough to volunteer to come. "

Oh, Daqing is waiting here!

The little wizards were very helpless. They could only hope for the Fat Lady, hoping that she would quickly get out of the haze of being threatened and return to the Gryffindor common room.

Everyone used to think that the Fat Lady was arrogant and unkind.

But now in comparison, they suddenly felt that the Fat Madam was quite warm.

At school, the stories about how Sirius Black broke into the castle became increasingly bizarre.

Some young wizards were taking herbal medicine classes and actually said to a flowering bush that Sirius must have turned into a bush and got in.

The person who said this was Hannah Abbott of Hufflepuff, and Lin Xia had to spend some time explaining to her that people cannot turn themselves into an inanimate dead thing.

Even the Animagus couldn't do it.

In the turmoil these past few days, the little wizard also had a lot of worries.

The most intuitive thing is that Professor Lupine, who taught them the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, is also missing, and Snape has to temporarily take over for a few classes.

Snape had always wanted to be a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts. After taking over the course, he implemented high-pressure education for the young wizards.

Every class is very difficult. Not only do you have to work hard to practice magic, otherwise you will face severe criticism from Professor Snape.

By the way, there are also a lot of heavy after-school homework, which squeezes out all the little wizard’s entertainment time!

Perhaps only academic masters like Hermione would enjoy it.

The little wizards mustered up the courage to ask their respective deans: "Where has Professor Lupin gone?"

The professor didn't say much, saying, "He has some things to deal with, so he's leaving temporarily."

-

"So, Professor Lupine will definitely come back, we just don't know how long we will have to wait."

In the laboratory, Ron sighed heavily and buried his body into the soft sofa.

Harry also had a bad expression on his face.

It wasn't because of Snape, anyway, Snape never gave him a good look either in class or after class.

What worries him is that he has been under close surveillance in recent days.

Professors were always looking for excuses to accompany him through the corridors, and Percy followed him everywhere like a particularly swaggering police dog.

Harry said: "Professor McGonagall talked to me today, and they talked about Sirius."

Hermione asked: "Does the professor know about your relationship with Sirius?"

Harry nodded: "This is what Professor McGonagall wanted to tell me, but she didn't expect that I would find out in advance, and her expression was very surprised." (End of Chapter)
