time at hogwarts

Ever since the notebook didn't appear in Ginny's hands, Magos had always felt a sense of urgency, especially the Horcrux in the Room of Requirement - Ravenclaw's golden crown.

During the first few days of school, he would borrow Harry's invisibility cloak every night on the pretext of going to the library to read in order to find out how to enter the Room of Requirement. Unfortunately, no matter what he tried, he couldn't find the door.For this reason, he even went to ask the twins.

But the result was obvious. Although it was just a fluke that he followed the two of them to the door last semester, neither of them knew whether it was correct.Fred and George expressed shock that he could know the Room of Requirement, the most mysterious secret room, and then expressed helplessness. They had been looking for this seemingly non-existent secret room, but they gave him the Marauder's Map.

"You don't need it anymore?" Magos asked curiously as he took the old parchment.

The usually cheerful twins had a depressed look on their faces.

"We have discovered all the secret rooms and secret passages in one year. The reason why we kept them is to find the secret rooms that have not been discovered by other wizards. As you know, those mysterious secret rooms cannot appear here at all. Above, since it would be a waste to leave it in our hands like this, why not give it to you?"

Now that they all said that, Magos stopped being disrespectful and put it away happily. With this thing, it might be possible to find the whereabouts of the basilisk on it.

Harry and the others were even happier than him when they found out that the twins gave Magos the Marauder's Map again, and they all agreed that they should go out for a walk at night.

Since they were so interested, Magos wouldn't say anything to dampen the mood.After the day's lessons, Harry took out the invisibility cloak and put it on the three of them.

"Where are we going?" Magos took out the Marauder's Map and his wand and opened it with a spell.

"I solemnly swear that I have done nothing wrong."

"Go to Slytherin, Malfoy has been avoiding us these days, go scare him." Ron got angry thinking of his father's face in Diagon Alley.

"Okay, let's go this way. Mrs. Norris and Filch are on the third floor. We won't meet each other so soon. But how do we get into the Slytherin common room? They are in the common room now." Magos I looked at the names on the map.

"Uh," Ron was stunned, he really didn't expect it.

"Forget it, let's just go and have a look. There's no destination anyway. By the way, Harry, haven't you started Quidditch training yet?"

"Starting next week, Wood said that after losing in the finals last semester, he has been thinking about what formation to use this year. It seems that if Gryffindor fails to win the championship this year, he will go crazy." He said at the end He felt a little guilty.

"This has nothing to do with you, Harry. No matter how important the Quidditch match is, it's not as important as what we did."

"You're right, Ron, but if I could have participated in the competition, I might have won the championship."

"It will be the same this year, we believe in you."

"Thank you."

"By the way, I never asked, Ron, where is your father's car? Did it go back after you gave it away?" Magos and the others stopped carefully in front of the sliding stairs and asked.

"Don't mention it." Ron shrugged, remembering the roaring letter again, "It was beaten to pieces by the Whomping Willow, and when he got angry, he threw Harry and me out and ran into the Forbidden Forest. "Harry nodded, also looking like he couldn't bear to look back.

"Angry?" Magos was a little confused. "Isn't it just a car that has been enchanted? How can it be angry? Do things that have been transformed by magic have emotions?"

"Probably." Ron obviously didn't expect this and returned uncertainly. "I don't know how many spells my dad used on it."

"Okay, I'll ask your father next time. It's really interesting. It's a bit like the transformation of machinery by fire?" Magos was curious whether it would become a magical Transformer if it was transformed.

"What fire?"

"A Muggle fantasy, nothing. Do we need to take it back?"

Ron almost jumped up like a cat that had stepped on its tail, "Don't be ridiculous, then we are going to the Forbidden Forest. I almost died in it last time. I can receive ten more yelling letters and I don't want to enter that place." place."

"It's not that dangerous now. Don't forget that it happened because Quirrell was controlled."

"Even so, I won't go in again." Ron was unmoved.

"What about you Harry, has that house elf ever given you any trouble again?"

"No, he shouldn't dare to do anything in school." Harry felt a little itchy thinking about Dobby's fist now, and he even wondered if it was him who made him and Ron miss the train.

"I also think it's best not to go to the Forbidden Forest. Hagrid didn't say there are dark creatures in it."

"Yeah, that's right. Wait, there's someone in front." Although Magos kept chatting with the two of them, half of his attention was still on the Marauder's Map.

"Who is it?" Harry asked in a low voice, and Ron closed his invisibility cloak nervously.

"The writing is too small, let me take a look."

"It's Professor Lockhart."

 "Professor Lockhart? Why is he here? This is the fifth floor."

"Would you like to follow along?"

Harry and Ron hesitated and shook their heads, "Let's forget it. It would be bad if we were discovered."

"Okay. Hey, wait a minute, he is coming towards us. Be careful and control your breathing." As he said that, the three of them slowly pressed against the wall.

After a while Lockhart came to them with a smile on his face and left.

"It seems that he is very satisfied with becoming the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, look at the proud look on his face."

"It's quite proud to be a professor at Hogwarts, but I heard that he was asked to be a professor because other wizards were unwilling to take such courses."

"Really?" Ron and Harry asked in surprise.

"I don't know if it's true or not. I heard it from other wizards in Diagon Alley and the bar. But regardless of anything else, it seems from that lesson that he is really good at dealing with those elves."

"Okay, get down quickly. It would be great if we could get into the Slytherin lounge." Ron urged.

"How is this possible? Except for wizards from their respective colleges, wizards from other colleges rarely find each other's lounges." Harry reminded one.

"That's not necessarily the case. Don't forget we have this." Magos pointed at the Marauder's Map.

"Remember how I found Hufflepuff last year? Their common room is much more hidden than Slytherin."

Harry and Ron looked at each other and could see the excitement in each other's eyes. Going to the lounges of other colleges was much more interesting than wandering around, and how many students had been to the lounges of other colleges?

I don't know what Filch is doing. He thinks there won't be students running around when school starts or something. It can be seen from the Marauder's Map that he has stayed in his room for the first time.

The three of them thought it didn't matter if they walked sideways tonight.

When you get to the basement and find Malfoy's location, go straight down the stairs.

Three guests who did not belong here came into the dim underground passage. Even if they tried their best to step lightly, they could not stop the sound of footsteps from spreading.

"This is my first time coming to this place. I didn't expect there to be such a big place under the basement, and there are so many forks. It's like a maze. Fortunately, we have the specific location of Malfoy."

"Magos, a question suddenly occurred to me." Harry stopped and said.

"what is the problem?"

"Our lounge requires a password to enter, so does Slytherin's lounge require a password?"

"Yeah, how could we forget this? What a pity, it's almost here." Harry was as disappointed as Ron now.

"We'll wait until we find the door. I'm a little reluctant because of the uncertainty."

"I remembered that we don't have a walkie-talkie. Let's ask Malfoy to come and open the door." Ron thought of the communication tool that they had forgotten for almost half a year.

"The battery has long been out. We can't charge it in school."

Slowly they walked to the passage closest to Malfoy.Harry and Ron were dumbfounded when they saw the perfectly matching passages. There wasn't even a door here, so how could they enter the Slytherin lounge?

"There's nothing we can do now, let's go back." Ron touched all over the wall with his hands, not to mention the door, and there wasn't even a gap.Although Harry said nothing, he looked like he was giving up.

"Maybe the door is right here, maybe saying the password will open it."

"What is the password? No one in Slytherin would ever tell anyone else."

"Just take a guess, let's say whatever Slytherin likes the most, or go back without opening it."

"Snake, the symbol of Slytherin is the snake." Harry said and quickly looked around.

"It's useless, the door isn't open. And it's useless even if we guessed it right if the door isn't here." The newly raised expectations disappeared instantly. Ron said dejected words, but then he said a pure-blood wizard. .

Still nothing happened.

"Pure blood?" Magos tried to explain. He also felt that pure blood wizard was Slytherin's favorite word.

As Magos finished speaking, on the wall not far from them, a stone door hidden in the stone wall slowly opened.

"Let's go, let's go find him tomorrow." Magos took out the Marauder's Map to see if Filch had come out.

Harry turned his head and glanced casually, then froze, "Wait, there is a door there."

"Where." Magos put away the Marauder's Map before he could find Filch's name. He followed Harry's gaze and saw that there was indeed a hole in the wall not far away that reached the top.

"Quickly, hide everything." Harry shouted, putting on the invisibility cloak in his hand.

Magos and Ron also reacted and quickly got in.Then they slowly walked into the unknown door. Just after they entered, the stone door quietly closed again.
