Hogwarts in a parallel world

Chapter 47 The frightened fat lady

"You'd better not tell Ron. He won't listen." Aurora firmly opposed Winters telling Ron about the abnormal situation.She believed that Ron could accept it only when the facts were in front of him.

"You're right," Winters said perfunctorily.In fact, he wasn't going to tell Ron, especially when he saw Ron playing with the mouse.

The students' daily conversation ranged from complaints about Snape's meanness to fears of dementors.Many parents of students have written to ask if their children are safe.

"Hermione, didn't you tell us that you would add a Divination class this semester? Why hasn't it been started yet?" Ron looked at the class schedule and was confused.

"Divination class? Is there such a class? I didn't even buy the book. The key is that the list didn't mention any books about divination class." Aurora took out the list again and looked at it carefully.

"Originally it was going to be held, but after the prison break in Azkaban, the teaching mission of Hogwarts was changed. The divination class will not start until the escapees return to where they belong," Elena said. He said it without looking up.

"What about the ancient magic text class?" Winters is most afraid of the ancient magic text class now.

"Same, the primary goal of Hogwarts now is to enable students to master the most basic self-protection skills. So many criminals escaped at once. Although the Auror Command Center and the Police Department formed a joint action team, those who escaped from prison They are all madmen with powerful magic. They are not easy to catch." Elena frowned and looked at a book full of mathematical symbols.

Snape's Potions class and Lupin's Defense Against the Dark Arts class form two extreme contrasts: Snape's Potions class is where most students get stuck, while Lupine's Defense Against the Dark Arts class is The class is about students waiting for the teacher.

"We are learning the Iron Armor Curse today. I know you will definitely want to ask if you can learn the Super Armor Bodyguard. But you must remember not to aim too high, but to take it step by step," Lu Ping said.

"Watch my demonstration. When chanting the spell, you must remember to quickly stretch your hand holding the wand forward. Pay attention to the leather box next to me," Lupine shouted.

"Armor," Lupine shouted, and his wand hand stretched straight forward.Then they discovered that the leather box next to Lupine had been pushed away.

"Okay, it's your turn. I started checking 15 minutes before get out of class ends. Don't let me find an excuse to leave you homework." Lu Ping clapped his hands to encourage everyone.

Surprisingly, Harry's Iron Armor Curse was actually much more powerful than Hermione's Iron Armor Curse.The suitcase next to Harry was knocked away by his armor spell.The suitcase next to Hermione only slid less than 1 meter.

"Gryffindor plus five" Lupine shouted happily.As time passed little by little, almost all the students mastered the Iron Armor Curse, except for Neville who was a little reluctant.

"Very good, very good. Then...I won't leave any homework today. Neville, please leave it for a while. get out of class is over." Lupine stood next to Neville and began to give one-on-one guidance.

Not only did the wind start to blow in the morning, but the originally green grass on the playground seemed to turn yellow overnight.It seems that a gust of wind has changed the playground to a yellow carpet. When autumn comes, it also brings with it continuous rain.

Every time Harry came back from the Quidditch pitch, he looked weathered: leaves in his hair and rainwater all over his body.

"A few more leaves in your hair would make a bird's nest," Hermione said with a smile.

"Now, even if it is a bird's nest, few birds will live in it. The temperature is getting lower and lower day by day. Anna is cold and cold. But Wood still doesn't change the training plan." Harry rarely showed dissatisfaction with Wood.While Harry was complaining.George, Fred is back too.

"What did you two do if you didn't go to training today?" Harry said depressedly.

"We got this thing from Filch's office. You'll never guess what it is." George pretended to be mysterious and shook a parchment.

"Parchment?" Harry looked at the parchment with curiosity.

"This is not an ordinary parchment. This is a map that shows the locations of everyone in Hogwarts," Fred said excitedly.

"What? This requires at least a high level of transformation and some kind of visualization magic." Winters immediately jumped up from his seat.

"Harry, please open it and take a look." Ron couldn't wait.

"Of course...um...why is it blank?" Harry opened the parchment and found that there was nothing inside.

"I forgot...you have to ask for the password. In fact, we didn't know what the password was at the beginning. But maybe this map thinks that we are people with a sense of humor, so it told us that the password to open is: I solemnly swear I don't do good things," George said with a smile.

"If you want to shut down this subway, say shenanigans are over," Fred added.

"I solemnly swear that I will not do anything bad." Harry's serious look made the people around him want to laugh.

As soon as Harry finished speaking, a line of words appeared on the originally blank parchment: This map was made by Prongs, Moony Face, Padfoot, and Wormtail.I hope it will bring you a different journey to Hogwarts.

Then a picture gradually unfolded, first the main building of the castle, then the greenhouse of the Herbology class, the Potions classroom, the playground, and around the Forbidden Forest. . . .It can be said that the whole school has a panoramic view.Harry saw many footprints, and they all had names.Hermione Granger was walking up and down the corridor as if looking for something.

"You came from Filch's office...well...you should have put it back...I have the Invisibility Cloak here" Harry didn't want the twins to get into trouble.

"Come on. How quickly Filch was able to find the students who caused trouble was all because of this map. This map was also made by the students themselves. If I have to say... we didn't make a mistake. This map should have been in the hands of the students. " George said with a smile.

"If I remember correctly, this map has been in Filch's office for 20 years. Because I also saw the names of your father and your godmother under it." Fred looked at Harry and said.

"You mean... if I could find someone who was my father's contemporaries, I would know the author of this map?" Harry immediately understood what Fred meant.

"That's what I mean. And Harry, you'd better keep this map to prevent any accidents. You also know that what happened in Azkaban is very serious." George rarely showed a serious expression.

Just when Harry was about to express his gratitude, Hermione came back with a very ugly face.

"My cat is missing, has any of you seen it?" Hermione's expression almost made her cry.

"It was snapping at Ron's mouse yesterday." Winters was frightened by Hermione's appearance.He didn't understand why Hermione was so excited.

"You...you don't think we threw your cat away?" Ron seemed to be watching a comedy show.Why would Hermione have such weird thoughts?

"This is impossible... As long as Ron holds Scabbers, he will definitely turn around and run away when he sees your cat." Winters tried to help Hermione regain some sense.

"We swear, we will never throw your cat out. That cat is very smart, much smarter than Ron's mouse and our Errol." George was not kidding either.

"Of course mice are not as smart as cats." Ron seemed to be very reluctant to have others say this about his mice.

"Then where did it go? I've been raising it for almost five years. It started as a kitten." Hermione's anxious tears welled up in her eyes.

"Cats have a very strong ability to survive in the wild. Even domestic cats can survive in the wild for a short time...as long as...hell...I forgot that there is a Forbidden Forest." Winters immediately understood why Hermione was so anxious.To the creatures of the Forbidden Forest, cats are dessert.

"I'm just afraid it will run into the Forbidden Forest." Hermione rubbed her eyes hard, her eyes had turned red.

"That cat is so smart and won't do anything stupid," Aurora comforted Hermione.But she was also a little panicked.After all, no matter how smart you are, you are still an animal.But soon Hermione stopped worrying about her cat because something even scarier happened.It was Halloween night in two weeks.

The entire Hogwarts was filled with the aroma of roasted pumpkins, the Great Hall was carefully decorated, and huge pumpkins floated on the magic ceiling.The food on the table dispelled the fear of Azkaban escapees.After everyone was happy and paranoid, the vampire singer used her ethereal voice to bring the Halloween dinner to a perfect ending.

Winters was so full that he had only one thought on his mind: sleep.If he hadn't been afraid of deducting points from Gryffindor, he would have turned a stool in the Great Hall into a bed and slept on it.

As he followed the procession toward the Gryffindor common room, the procession stalled.

"Percy... the fat lady has disappeared" seemed to be Seamus shouting.

"What are you talking about? It's impossible." Although Percy didn't believe what Seamus said, he still rushed over.After a while, I saw Percy running back in a hurry.

As he ran, he was still shouting: "Don't move, I'm going to find Professor Dumbledore."

"What happened?" Aurora walked up. She drank some wine and was a little unsteady on her feet.

"The Fat Lady is missing." Winters was completely sleepless.

"It's weird... Portraits usually don't run around everywhere." Aurora also woke up a lot.

"Please give way, Professor Dumbledore is here." Percy had come back, sweating profusely and panting.

Winters noticed that Dumbledore walked over with a serious expression.Driven by curiosity, he moved forward bit by bit.Then he saw that the Fat Lady's portrait was empty, and there were many scratches on it, and each scratch was very deep.

"Fat Madam, where are you? The students are going to rest" Dumbledore shouted.The other portraits started shouting too.Finally they found the Fat Lady in a portrait of a swamp cow. Her next words surprised everyone present, and Harry was so frightened that he reached for his wand.

"She's back, Sirius is back. I asked her for the password, and she said she didn't know... and then she tore my portrait into pieces," the fat lady cried in shock.
