From Beauxbatons to Hogwarts

"Well, it doesn't hurt to tell you. Let me think about it - he borrowed Fluffy from me. Then he asked several other teachers to cast magic...Professor Sprout, Professor Flitwick, McGonagall Professor, and this guy Calvin.”

Hagrid crossed his fingers and said, "Professor Quirrell. Of course, Dumbledore did the magic himself. Wait, I forgot someone. Oh, by the way, it's Professor Snape."

"Snape?" Harry exclaimed.

"Yeah, are you still doubting him, huh? Look, Snape is also helping to protect the Sorcerer's Stone. He won't steal it." Hagrid said with a smile.

Harry knew that Ron and Hermione were thinking the same thing.A chill ran down his spine and into his brain.

Since Snape also participated in the work of protecting the Philosopher's Stone, he must have easily figured out what traps other teachers had set up.

If this is the case, then Harry and the others may not have any advantage over Snape.Snape probably knew everything - except, it seemed, Quirrell's magic and how to get past Fluffy.

"You're the only one who knows how to get past Fluffy, don't you, Hagrid?" Harry asked eagerly. "You won't tell anyone, will you? Not even the teacher, will you?"

Ron, Hermione and Hagrid looked at Harry like he was an idiot.

"Oh my God," Harry muttered, "that smuggler."

"Okay, kids, don't worry." Hagrid comforted him. "Even if someone knows how to get past Lu Wei, he can't get the Sorcerer's Stone. And Professor Capet, he promised me."

The three of them quickly left Hagrid's hut. Harry was in a low mood. He felt that the Philosopher's Stone was in danger.

"Don't worry, Harry," Ron said, "Hagrid said that Professor Capet will ensure that no one will get the Philosopher's Stone."

"But Snape," Harry paused and said in a lower voice, "but Snape and Professor Capet were both Slytherin students. It's not that I don't believe Professor Capet, I mean just in case, What if Snape deceived Professor Capet."

Harry and others walked to the door of the castle and were about to go in when they suddenly heard someone sobbing and sobbing behind the door.

The three of them looked at each other, took a few steps closer, and leaned on the door. They vaguely heard Quirrell's voice.

"No, no... I can't do it anymore, please..."

Someone seemed to be threatening Professor Quirrell, but the door was too thick and the person's voice was too soft, so it was impossible to tell who it was, let alone hear his words.

"Okay, okay. This is the last time." Harry heard Quirrell sobbing.

The three of them waited until Quirrell's voice and footsteps disappeared completely, then opened the door and entered the castle.

"It must have been Snape just now," Ron said firmly.

"He finally succeeded..." Hermione's face turned pale. "The smuggler must be Snape pretending to be a potions master. It's easy to pretend to be someone."

"What do we do, Harry!" Ron's eyes sparkled with a desire for adventure.

"Go to Dumbledore first. We should have done this a long time ago. If we can't act alone, we will be expelled from school." Hermione answered Ron before Harry.

"But we have no evidence!" Harry said, "Even Professor Capet doesn't believe us. They think this is our prejudice against Snape!"

"Try again, Harry," Hermione demanded forcefully.

Harry had no choice but to go to Calvin's office with Ron and Hermione again and knock on the door hard, but no one opened the door.

"Come on, Harry." Ron pointed to a note on the door, "Professor Capet is not here today."

Harry was immediately discouraged and had no choice but to go see Professor Dumbledore.

Then they discovered that they didn't know where Dumbledore's office was.

They could only wander around the castle like headless flies. Finally, this weird behavior was stopped by Professor McGonagall.

"You three have been wandering around the castle all afternoon. What were you doing?"

Professor McGonagall walked up to them with a stack of books in her arms.

"We want to see Professor Dumbledore," Hermione said.Harry and Ron thought her behavior was very brave.

"Want to see Professor Dumbledore?" Professor McGonagall repeated, it seems that they have such an idea is very suspicious. "Why?"

Harry swallowed—what should I say?

"It's a secret." As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he immediately wished he hadn't said them, because Professor McGonagall got angry and her nostrils fluttered.

"Professor Dumbledore is not here today," she said coldly. "He went to inspect the Magical Creatures Sanctuary with Professor Capet, and he won't be back until tomorrow."

"He's gone?" said Harry anxiously. "At this hour?"

"Professor Dumbledore is always busy and his time is precious."

"But this is very important."

"Is what you have to say more important than student teaching, Harry?"

Well," said Harry, throwing caution to the wind, "Professor - it's about the Philosopher's Stone -"

Professor McGonagall had never expected this to be the case.The book in her arms fell to the floor with a clatter, but she didn't pick it up.

"How do you know?" she asked stammering.

"Professor, I think...I know, Snape...that someone is trying to steal the Philosopher's Stone. I must speak to Professor Dumbledore."

Professor McGonagall looked at him with a look of astonishment and suspicion.

"Professor Dumbledore will be back tomorrow," she said finally. "I don't know how you found out about the Philosopher's Stone, but don't worry, no one can steal it. It's well protected and safe."

"But professor..."

"Mr. Potter, I know what I'm talking about." Professor McGonagall said impatiently, then bent down and picked up the book that fell on the floor. "I suggest you go back and read a book, there will be class tomorrow."

But they didn't.

"Tonight," Harry said quickly when he was sure that Professor McGonagall was too far away to hear, "Snape will go through the trap door tonight. Professor Cappy and Professor Dumbledore are not here. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him.”

"But what can we do?" Hermione was at a loss for ideas.

"There's only one option left, right?" Harry said.Hermione and Ron both stared at him, seeing that his face was pale and his eyes were bright. "I'll sneak out of here tonight and get the Philosopher's Stone before Snape does."

"You're crazy!" said Ron. "It's too dangerous."

Ron looked at Hermione, hoping she could also stop Harry's crazy behavior.

As a result, Hermione said softly: "You are right, Harry. Use the invisibility cloak and I will go with you."

Ron stared at Hermione with wide eyes, and after a moment he said angrily: "Okay, don't abandon me, who made you my friends."
