Hogwarts Wandering Wizard

Chapter 22 Strange Events

On the way to the kitchen, Eric briefly shared what happened in the afternoon and took out the Marauder's Map.

As someone who has the system map function, his need for the Marauder Map is limited to before the system map function is upgraded. As for whether he still needs this thing after the map function is upgraded, we will decide at that time.

Considering that he plans to travel at night for a week to complete the task, he may not be able to hide the Marauder's Map, so it is better to let the Weasley brothers know about the existence of this thing in advance.

When Fred and George heard about this powerful map, they were also very greedy, but after struggling for a long time, they gritted their teeth and returned the Marauder's Map to Eric: "The significance of this thing is too important, we can't take it. Walk it."

Eric looked at the reluctant Weasley brothers with a strange look on his face, and said speechlessly: "Who said I was going to give this thing to you, I just showed it to you."

I'm so...

The Weasley brothers couldn't help but spit out a lot of words. You look like this...forget it, they are just being sentimental.

Eric read "Prank is over" to the Marauder's Map. When he closed the map, he noticed from the corner of his eye that a large number of overlapping names suddenly appeared in the Forbidden Forest. Before he could see clearly, the names of these names suddenly appeared. The frame quickly disappears.

Not paying attention to this small detail, he walked towards the kitchen with the Weasley brothers.

When they went down to the basement level, they didn't meet a single student on the way. Just when Eric was feeling a little strange, Fred suddenly said: "If Eric can get this thing from Filch's office, then Does that mean there are many more babies like this in that guy’s office?”

George suddenly came to his senses and said excitedly: "Doesn't that mean that if we find a chance to go in..."

The two brothers looked at each other, countless plans flashing in their eyes.

Eric shrugged noncommittally. There was no need for the Weasley brothers to devise any plan to break into Filch's office. With their operations, they would definitely be frequent visitors to the administrator's office in the future.

After scratching the green pear in front of the picture of the fruit bowl, which seemed raw and ripe at the same time, Eric led the two of them into the kitchen.

"Good evening, sir"

Sal coincidentally passed by pushing an iron bucket full of milk in a trolley. When he saw Eric walking in, he put down the trolley and bowed to him.

"Good evening Sal, you don't have to be so polite. My friends and I didn't have time to have dinner, so I wanted to come to your place to find something to eat. Is there any food left?"

"Yes sir, please follow me."

The elf snapped his fingers, and the cart stood up automatically, as if someone was pushing it from behind, and rushed towards a side door of the kitchen.

? ?It can use magic, why were you pushing it away just now? ?

Eric felt confused. He just felt that there were some honey operations of the house elves that he really couldn't understand.

"We don't seem very hungry..."

Fred followed the elf and Eric to the long table and sat down. Looking at the busy elves pushing carts around in the kitchen, he frowned and murmured something.

"Then why are you coming down with me?"

"???" x2

Eric suddenly woke up, as if he had just called them down, and said with relief: "It's okay, the desserts in the kitchen are good, you can have some more."

Seven or eight elves ran over carrying a large tray with a large steak, some fried potato cubes, and some small desserts on it.

Sal placed the plate in front of Eric, filled him with a glass of milk, and said in a high-pitched voice: "Sir, did you miss the meal time by reading in the library again in the afternoon? You are really a studious wizard. .”

"Thank you. I also think I'm easy to learn." Thinking of how hard he worked on practicing his skills in the Room of Requirement, he nodded with satisfaction, accepted Thrall's compliment, and cut the steak.

The Weasley brothers opposite them devoured one piece of dessert after another without any sign of eating. The cruelty was such that Eric couldn't help but frown and asked, "Did you really come back full this afternoon?"

"Of course!" George replied slurredly with his mouth full of butter pudding, "But who would have thought that the food in the Hogwarts kitchen is so delicious."

"Thank you for the compliment!"

Sal and several other elves happened to bring another plate of small desserts and put it on the table. When they heard George's compliments to them, they bowed to them with smiles on their faces.

Fred and George nodded awkwardly to them. Watching the elves leave, Fred couldn't help but sigh: "I didn't expect the elves to be so enthusiastic. I even wanted to take one of them home. Mom used to She has always wanted to have an elf at home who can help her share the housework, but her father said that buying a house elf is too expensive, and only wizarding families with deep family backgrounds can afford it."

Kidnapping a house elf?

This seems like a good idea!

Eric forked the meat into his mouth, chewed it slowly and looked at the elves running around in the kitchen, a look of thinking flashed on his face.

The targets of house elves are relatively small, and coupled with the magic of their magic, it would be a good choice if he has an elf who can help him go out to do errands.

But at the moment, he has no such plan, and he throws the idea out of his mind as soon as it comes up.

When the three people who had eaten and drank enough were preparing to leave, a dozen house elves came over enthusiastically again, holding various snacks and biscuits, stuffing them into the air while Fred and George burped. into their hands.

Eric stuffed all the food in his pocket into the system backpack. It is always good to save more. What if during the next world mission, you are teleported to a place where birds don’t poop and there is no food? .

When the three of them returned to the lounge with satisfaction, Charlie Weasley suddenly came up to them and asked the three of them anxiously: "Where did you three go? I couldn't find you before dinner. "

Fred and George looked at each other guiltily and exchanged eyes. Could it be that someone discovered that they went out from behind the secret passage?

Eric looked at the other students who were talking to each other in the lounge, and asked with some surprise: "We were just reading in the library, and after reading, we went to the underground kitchen to eat. What happened?"

Just as Charlie was about to explain, Lee Jordan rushed to his side and said to the three of them in panic: "Something happened. The town of Hogsmeade was just attacked by monsters. Someone saw three of them with their own eyes." Breaking into the Forbidden Forest, when the professors heard the news and entered the Forbidden Forest to search, they happened to meet two of the monsters and captured a student from the Care of Magical Creatures class who was going to hand in his homework. According to his confession, there was someone in his They were captured by those two monsters before..."

After listening to Li's words, Eric suddenly understood what happened. It turned out that the professors thought that one of the students was kidnapped, and Charlie had never found the three of them, so he was so excited when he saw them.

"By the way, what do those monsters look like?" Eric asked curiously, "Have the professors caught them?"

Charlie shook his head and warned the people in front of him: "They did not fight against the professors. When they saw them, they left the hostages and ran away. The professors searched for a long time in the forbidden forest and found nothing. So in the school, you You must not be left alone, especially the Forbidden Forest, you must not go near it.”

Looking at his two uneasy brothers, Charlie took a helpless breath and pointed at them with his lips pursed: "Especially you two, if I find you approaching the Forbidden Forest, it doesn't matter whether Percy will or not. I will help you hide it, and I will definitely tell my mother."

Fred and George looked at each other, a strange look flashed in their eyes, and replied to Charlie in unison: "Don't worry Charlie, we will never...never go to the Forbidden Forest."
