Harry Potter's Cousin Dudley at Hogwarts

Chapter 26 The Trapped Door Under the Gouzi

"Harry, there are voices over there."

As they approached the Gryffindor lounge, they heard some strange noises around the corner not far away.

"This sound should not be made by Filch or his cat. We heard similar sounds when we came out."

"That's the shortest way we can get back to the Gryffindor common room, unless you want to make a big detour back?"

Hearing what Dudley said, everyone felt that they could go and have a look, so they bravely walked towards the direction of the voice.

"What is it?"

"It's nothing, it's Neville."

Dudley saw Neville curled up in a corner by himself, apparently still sound asleep, the sound just now was made by him similar to snoring.

"Neville?!! Why are you here?"

Hermione was surprised to see Neville and immediately went to wake him up.

"Hermione? You?" Neville was awakened by Hermione in a daze, looked at Hermione, then at Dudley and the others, his expression became agitated.

"Thank goodness you guys came out looking for me! I can't remember the latest password. I've been out here for hours and can't go back to sleep."

"Uh--" Harry opened his mouth, seeing Neville's tears were moved there, he didn't know what to say, he couldn't tell him that you were thinking too much.

"Okay, since we found Neville, let's go back quickly! By the way, Neville, how is your arm?" Dudley came out to smooth things over.

"It's okay, Ms. Pomfrey cured me in the blink of an eye." Neville raised his arm and moved it for Dudley and the others to see.

"Let's go back, I'm exhausted!" Ron stretched his waist.

When I came to the portrait of the fat lady, the fat lady had already come back.

"Where have you all been?" asked the fat lady in the painting.

"They're looking for me," Neville said.

Even Hermione looked a little embarrassed now.

"Don't ask, the password is 'pig nose', open the door for us quickly!" Dudley said to the fat lady.

After talking about the portrait, the door swung open, and Dudley and the others swarmed in.

"Neville, go and rest!"

"Hey? Okay, what about you?"

"We'll go to rest later."

"Well, good." Neville left quite well and went to the dormitory to rest.

"Phew, I'm exhausted." Harry rubbed his shoulders, slumped on the armchair in the lounge, not wanting to move.

Looking at the state of Ron and Hermione is similar.

Dudley got up and poured some water into his water glass.

"Come, drink some water."

Hand them a glass full of water.

"What the hell are they going to do? Why do they keep such a vicious dog in school?" After a short break, Ron regained his energy and excitedly discussed the dog he just met. He was the first dog with three heads. See you next time.

"I don't know, but that dog is really big." Harry shook his head.

"I just don't know if it tastes good as a hot pot?" Dudley interjected.

"What is hot pot?" Ron was a little puzzled.

"Hot pot is—" Harry began to explain what hot pot is, "but can dog meat be made into hot pot?"

So the topic started to deviate, and began to discuss what ingredients are better for hot pot.

"You—you guys! What are eyes for?" Hermione watched them talking more and more out of tune, her bad temper came up again, and she said angrily: "Didn't you see that one?" Is the dog standing on something?"

"What? Isn't it standing on the floor?" Hearing Hermione's words, Harry came back to his senses and thought about it. "I'm too busy looking at its three heads. Dudley, Ron, have you seen what it's standing on?"

"No."

Dudley and Ron answered in unison, Dudley did not pay attention to the dog's feet, after all, the three-headed dog was too shocking, which cannot be reflected in the movie.

But Dudley, who had seen the movie, also knew that there was a passage under the dog.

Hermione obviously didn't care about Dudley's and Ron's answers.

"Didn't you all see that it was standing on a trapdoor? It was obviously guarding something." Hermione stood up, and said to Dudley and the others angrily, "You should be glad that nothing happened this time, You may not be so lucky next time."

Ron stared at Hermione's furious back, opened his mouth, and then choked out a sentence, "What is she doing here?"

"I don't know," said Harry.

"Should be going to bed! It's late after all." Dudley watched her walk towards the girls' dormitory.

"Harry, are you saying that the trap door under the dog is really what Hermione said?" Ron asked curiously.

"Probably." Harry nodded.

"Although Hermione has a bad temper, she doesn't bother to tell lies." Dudley agreed.

"What do you think is hidden under the trap door?" Ron was curious about what was hidden under the dog.Curious to ask for something, needs a dog that big to watch.

"how could I know."

"Stop talking, we have class tomorrow, go to sleep." Dudley yawned, calling Harry and Ron to go to rest together.

"Dudley, are you asleep?"

Seeing Ron get on the bed, he fell asleep 'huh'. Harry tossed and turned, but couldn't sleep, and problems kept popping up in his mind.

"No, what's the matter Harry?" Hearing Harry's voice, Dudley asked.

"What do you say is hiding under that dog, Dudley?"

"Hiding things should be quite precious! That place is on the fourth floor near the corridor on the right, where Headmaster Dumbledore said he was not allowed to go to school."

"is it?"

"Yes, I also asked the seniors in the senior grades, and they said that this rule is only required for this semester." Dudley told Harry what he knew, and as for saying that there was actually a Philosopher's Stone underneath It is one thing to believe it or not, but it will only increase a lot of trouble.

Dudley's words made Harry lie on the bed and fell into thought again, what could that dog be guarding?

Then Harry thought of the news about the theft from Gringotts. The vault that was broken into was exactly the one that Hagrid found in the dirty little bag.

Hagrid once said that Gringotts was the safest place in the world, but the safest place was broken into.

Is there a safer place than Gringotts?Suddenly Harry thought of Hogwarts.

Hogwarts should be a safer place than Gringotts. Harry guessed that the dirty package that Hagrid took from the Gringotts 713 vault was probably hidden in Hogwarts.

Combined with the term-only rule of not going to the fourth floor near the right corridor, Harry was sure that the dirty package was hidden under the trap door under the dog.

"Dudley, Dudley?"

Excitedly, Harry wanted to tell Dudley his conjecture, but he just shouted a few times, but Dudley didn't get a response.

"Is this asleep?"

After confirming that Dudley was asleep, Harry also wrapped himself up tightly, planning to tell him and Ron the news tomorrow.
