HP has a villain system but has become a popular character
Chapter 168 Infiltration
It's another quiet night.
The weather in England has been so cold lately that poor Peeves can't even meet the little wizard after curfew.
Bored, Peeves hung his head on a rope and swung on the swing, complaining to Count Nicholas who was floating beside him about the boredom of the past two days.
"Bored!"
“I’m bored to dissipate!”
Count Nicholas reached out and pushed Peeves on the back, and the light soul hanging on the rope swayed from an acute angle to a blunt angle easily.
"You are the condensation of the emotions of the young wizards of Hogwarts over the years. How could you possibly dissipate?"
Count Nicholas exposed him without any hesitation, which made Peeves go crazy and twist the rope around his neck several times, turning into a hanged ghost.
"Dumbledore and his team cast a warming spell on the castle, and the wind and sun warmed it up a lot, but those little wizards still gathered together and refused to leave the dormitory door!"
“Maybe there’s a kind of cold called looking cold?”
One had been dead for too long, and the other had never lived at all. The two ghosts could not understand the little wizards' perception of temperature, and they hung on the ceiling and swung on the swing out of boredom.
In the corridor under the two ghosts, a bright light moved from the corner of the corridor, illuminating a small area of darkness, and then disappeared at the corner of the corridor on the other side.
Mr. Filch, the night watchman, was holding a kerosene lamp and anxiously calling his Mrs. Norris. His cat had run away somewhere and he needed to find her. Maybe he could also catch a few mice that were sneaking around in the middle of the night.
The professor on night patrol tonight is Horace Slughorn, with the Slytherin prefects standing on both sides of him. The three of them are assigned areas to patrol today at the door of the Potions Professor's office.
Two bottles of high-quality cold medicine were given to each of the two prefects, and his words were full of love and care.
"Keep these two bottles of cold medicine. It's still cooler at night than during the day. I've had a severe fever recently, so this is a precaution."
Slughorn would not be stingy with his help for students who were good enough. Every outstanding student would be his steady investment, and after graduation and success, they would become medals in the honor column of his resume.
The two took the potion and thanked him. The man then put a layer of temperature-isolating spell on them before letting them go on night patrol.
Peeves and Count Nicholas watched this scene and murmured about Slughorn's hypocrisy.
A ball of white light flashed from the tip of the fat man's staff, illuminating the darkness in front of him. He took two steps and panted heavily before starting his work.
After the man disappeared around the corner, the corridor fell silent again along with his heavy breathing.
Until the night patrol was over, even the portrait fell asleep and paid no attention to the two ghosts who didn't need to sleep. In the medical wing, a rustling sound was heard.
Pretending to be asleep to avoid Madam Pomfrey's final ward inspection, all the lights in the room were turned off, leaving only a little moonlight sneaking in through the gaps in the curtains that were never closed tightly.
Sirius and Remus, who had been sleeping soundly just now, opened their eyes and sat up, listening carefully to the sounds around them. After making sure that Madam Pomfrey had left, they reached for the invisibility potion beside their pillows.
pat.
The cork was pulled out with a slight sound, like a sudden thunderclap in the quiet night.
Holding their breath, the little wizards on the other beds were all fast asleep. The two of them breathed a sigh of relief and drank the potion in their hands.
A magical miracle happened.
On the hospital bed, the figures of the two young men gradually became transparent. In each other's eyes, they merged with the moonlight, darkness, and all the surrounding objects, until they could no longer tell where the other was.
The two put on the shoes placed beside the bed. After a few seconds of contact with the soles of their feet, the shoes began to become transparent.
Sirius lowered his head and moved his palms back and forth. He really couldn't see anything in his sight, he could only feel a little air fluctuation. When he touched the quilt on the bed, the soft concave marks showed the presence of his hands.
Remus walked to Sirius' bedside. He couldn't see anyone and could only identify Sirius's position by the marks on the quilt.
Interrupting Sirius who was having so much fun, Remus said softly, "Stop playing and go find Regulus."
"Yeah," Sirius retracted his action, and Remus could no longer tell his current location. He should still be there. Remus recalled reaching out to touch him, but the angle was wrong and he slapped Sirius in the face.
"Hiss! Remus, you are not taking revenge!"
Remus, who had touched his face, covered Sirius' mouth, "Shh, go away."
Sirius slapped the invisible hand away from his face, "Let's go."
In the corner of the medical wing, the little wizard who got up at night to go to the bathroom heard the sound of two people talking. He looked over with sleepy eyes and saw that the bed was empty.
The young wizard felt that human beings had great potential, otherwise how could he shrink back into the quilt in less than a second, and not even have the urge to urinate.
"Oh! Remus, be careful! You stepped on my big toe!"
"I'm sorry Sirius, you know I can't see you right now, and you don't want to walk with me holding hands."
"Ha! Holding hands and walking together, do you know how weird this is? In my life, there is no way I will hold hands with another man other than Wen Xiu."
After leaving the hospital wing, although the two tried to lower their voices, they were not that cautious. The professors, prefects and Filch who were on night patrol had all gone back to rest. Now, besides the ghost, there were only the two of them in the castle.
Sirius cursed in his heart, 'Damn it, the whole Hogwarts is so quiet now, suitable for a date, why is Remus next to me! '
The big dog missed his silver-haired master and couldn't help but quicken his pace.
The sound came from far away and gradually got closer. Peeves spun around to untie the twisted rope around his neck and quickly flew towards the direction where the sound came from. Nicholas saw that Peeves' soul seemed to have become much more solid.
As spiritual beings existing in this world, the world seen by ghosts is very different from the world seen by them as mortals.
The world as seen by a ghost can be more accurately described as the world seen with the soul rather than with the eyes.
No matter how strong or weak, every soul has a shape.
Every person, every flower, every blade of grass, every tree, every little life attached to the dust in the air, and even every dead object that has been with humans for a long time will gradually develop a soul.
Peeves saw two very familiar souls swaggering in the corridor. He rushed to the two and shouted excitedly, "Wow! You two finally came for a night tour! I've been waiting for a long time!"
The two invisible people were frightened.
Sirius took a step back and the two held their breath. The few times they moved, Peeves's eyes were on them. The two had to accept the fact that Peeves could see them.
"Hey! Peeves! How did you find us?"
Peeves liked the trio who often went out at night, so he peeked behind the two of them and said, "Your souls are like big light bulbs in the dark night, it's hard not to see them. Where's the other person? Why are there only two of you?"
Remus didn't want to waste time here, "We're not here for a night out. We have important things to do today. We can talk another day."
After saying that, he stretched out his hand and grabbed something at his side, maybe he grabbed the collar, and dragged Sirius towards the Slytherin cellar.
Count Nicholas floated over to Peeves, "Those two are really strange."
Peeves gave a wicked smile, "They must be going to play a prank on Slytherin. I want to go with them and watch the show."
After saying that, he floated away behind the two of them.
