All things are three at Hogwarts

Chapter 108 Letter (Revised)

Alan followed him very curiously. He was not the only one who did this. The little wizards were all very curious. What happened and who was going to be unlucky?

Following the administrator Filch, everyone went straight to the fifth underground classroom, where four third-year Gryffindor students were blocked. Some of the dismembered "Neville's pets" were scattered on the table and the floor. The white, lifeless eyes of "Neville's pets" stared silently at the ceiling, and the ceiling was covered with splashes of " Neville's pet cousins' brains were smeared everywhere.

Mrs. Norris ran to Filch's feet and let out piercing screams one after another. Her two yellow eyes that shined like lamps stared closely at the four Gryffindors, her eyes filled with The meaning of condemnation.

Mrs. Norris - This scrawny gray cat is used by the administrator Argus Filch as his second-in-command in his endless battles with the students.

"Dirty stuff!" Filch shouted angrily, his nose unusually red. His eyes were bulging in a frightening way, and the flesh on his double chin was trembling, "There is dirt everywhere, a mess everywhere! Let me tell you, I've had enough! I'll put you in solitary confinement, you all have to be put in solitary confinement!"

Several Gryffindors followed Filch sadly out of the classroom. Mrs. Lorris's big yellow eyes flicked around the few little wizards who were watching, as if thinking about whether these students were unreliable and might be naughty. . As if she was sure of something, Mrs. Norris jumped briskly and left the classroom.

Seeing that there was no excitement to be seen, the onlookers left the classroom in twos and threes. After all, it was very uncomfortable to stay in a dark and humid underground classroom in such bad weather. Perhaps it was because of this that the four Gryffindors chose this place as the place to conduct their experiments.

Alan lazily took out the wand from his sleeve, "disappeared, cleaned up, and restored to the original state." Several spells were cast skillfully and smoothly, and the remains of "Neville's pets" scattered in the classroom disappeared without a trace. , all the tables and chairs are as bright as new, and the ceiling has returned to its pure white color.

Allen is not showing kindness, but showing mercy. He felt pity for Filch, the administrator who was a squib and had a bad cold. What's more, cleaning these things is just a simple task for Allen and can be completed in an instant. As for Filch, he may have to endure the pain of illness and work all morning to remove all the stains.

Alan was very confused about hiring a squib to be the caretaker of Hogwarts. For Filch, he has no magic, but he has to watch the little wizards grow up; he has to work hard and spend a lot of energy to do things that can be accomplished with a magic spell. How could he be mentally balanced? How could he not harbor ill will toward the little wizards!

Maybe no wizard is willing to do such a trivial thing! The salary is not high, the work is tiring, unpopular with students, and the sense of achievement is low... This job is indeed not attractive to wizards. Allen thought of working in school with Molly Prewett and Arthur Weasley. When they were in school, the administrator, Apollyon Pringle, caught them walking out at four in the morning. I wonder if he was a wizard or a squib?

"What a good spell! Such behavior is very worthy of praise!" came a voice, and Allen looked back, and it was Nick who was almost headless. He wore a fashionable feathered hat on his long curly hair, and a knee-length tunic with a wheel-shaped ruff that almost hid his neck. The fact of being completely severed. He floated in front of Allen like a wisp of smoke.

"You look very anxious!" Allen could see Nick's anxious state at a glance.

"Yes, I'm waiting for a very important reply." Nick said seriously.

Allen immediately guessed what he was waiting for, but he wisely didn't ask. How great Nick's hopes are now, how great his disappointment will be when he receives the letter.

But obviously, Nick desperately needs someone to share his feelings with, even if it's a Ravenclaw. "It's the Headless Hunters! I applied to them and I'll probably receive their reply today!"

"With all due respect, you were already a knight during your lifetime, why do you still care so much about the position of a Headless Hunter, Sir Patrick Podmore?" Allen knew that Nick could not become a member of the Headless Hunters, but he was very I’m curious, why does Nick care so much about a team that looks like a sideshow? He was a knight during his lifetime!

"Well, how should I put it? Your experiences and honors during your lifetime have all turned into smoke in the past, and the fame and fortune you have gained will have no effect on your death. For ghosts, a long life can only see living people enjoying delicious food and enjoying themselves. Life, watching others create and change the world, but we can't touch anything or do anything, is very boring and frustrating." There was no sadness in Nick's serious statement. Perhaps his long career has made him I see these things very clearly.

"But like the Headless Hunters, they will often hold some interesting activities, such as participating in Hunter activities such as horseback juggling and overhead polo. You can also participate in banquets held by various ghosts, and everyone can invite them I'm proud to participate." Talking about his favorite Headless Hunters team, Allen felt that Nick's transparent eyes were shining.

At this moment, a transparent owl flew into the underground classroom, holding a transparent letter in its mouth. Allen was really enlightened. Before, he had only seen in textbooks that animals could turn into ghosts. Now he was lucky enough to see it with his own eyes, and the letters between ghosts were actually transparent.

However, Allen, who had guessed the content of the letter, was not willing to stay any longer. It was sad to see other people's hopes shattered, and Allen was not willing to see Nick lose his composure. Alan thought Nick needed a quiet space to sort out his emotions.

"Sir Patrick Podmore, I have other things to do, so I have to say goodbye to you!" Allen said goodbye politely.

Nick's mind was completely occupied by this transparent letter. He waved his hand and let Allen leave.

Allen left the dark underground classroom. It was still raining outside. Although it was not as rainy as in the morning, it still kept many little wizards indoors.

On the first floor of the castle, when passing by Filch's office, the door of Filch's office suddenly opened, and the four third-year Gryffindor students left with expressions of disbelief and joy, and at the same time there was a An owl flew out. It seemed that Mr. Filch also received a letter that made him very happy, otherwise how could these Gryffindors who had made him furious just now be let off so easily.

In the evening, Harry came to Alan and invited him to attend Nearly Headless Nick's death anniversary party. Alan felt that he was already very kind, but Harry was simply too kind!

"Harry, there will be a Halloween party that day! I heard from Professor Flitwick that Professor Dumbledore has booked a skeleton dance troupe to entertain everyone. I have absolutely no interest in attending the ghost's death anniversary party. "Rejecting Harry directly, Allen felt that his decision not to stay in front of Nick for a long time was very wise!

Harry also told Alan the content of the letter Filch received today - Harry soiled the castle at night, was captured by Filch and put into confinement in the office, and found that Filch was writing a letter. The reply was to sign up for a quick correspondence course on mantra recitation. But in reality, for Squibs, any correspondence courses are useless. I wonder if magic-enhancing potions will be useful? However, it is obvious that even in ancient times when potion ingredients were less scarce, no wizard would be willing to use such a precious potion on Squibs and Muggles, let alone now.

What Allen didn't expect was that after he washed up and was about to take a rest, he also received a letter!
