Save the Bachelor of Heaven

 Chapter 4088 4090 [Prohibited Items]

James and Sirius, two naughty guys, were caught by Filch in the office and refused to calm down. They deliberately set off fireworks to attract Filch's attention, and then opened the drawer of "confiscated supplies".

But I saw that there were all kinds of miscellaneous things inside, most of which should be magic props sold by Zuko's Joke Shop and Jumping Magic Joke Shop.

For example, dung eggs, burping candy, frog egg soap, fang flying saucers, winged slingshots, struggling to pull out fireworks, biting nose teacups, swishing and banging fireworks, etc.

These are things that Hogwarts strictly prohibits students from bringing into the school, but unfortunately they are always prohibited.

After all, the students at Hogwarts are all teenagers between the ages of eleven and eighteen who are in the rebellious stage. The harder they are restrained, the more playful they become.

Therefore, when James and Sirius saw this, their eyes lit up, and they quickly stole a few, and then closed the drawer immediately, making Gregory on the side look dumbfounded.

He didn't expect them to be so courageous. They had already been caught in the office, and they dared to be naughty. He was really shocked.

"They are too courageous." He couldn't help but said to Xiang Nan.

"Ah, what?" Xiang Nan finally came to his senses at this moment, because he saw half a drawer full of books from the "confiscated supplies" drawer. Many of the books have words like "poison", "black", "powerful", "cutting-edge" written on their spines...

The books that can be confiscated by the guard must be "not suitable for children", but I don't know why they are not sent to the library for collection.

Perhaps it was because Filch himself was a squib and had almost zero magic knowledge. It was difficult to tell whether these books were useful or not. Or perhaps it was his own selfishness. He couldn't learn magic and didn't want to contribute to the school library.

All in all, it's a shame that these books have been put away in drawers.

…

Just as he was thinking about it, Filch had already packed up the fireworks and returned to the office.

"The **** fireworks, I don't know who set them off. If I catch him, I will punish him severely." He muttered angrily.

Then he continued to take notes, writing down Xiang Nan, James, Sirius, and Gregory, and planned to punish them tomorrow after asking the principal for instructions.

"It's at least a week of confinement, or you'll have to clean the toilet for me, and you're not allowed to use magic..." He said with a proud smile, which almost made Gregory cry.

"It's really unfair, we didn't do anything." Gregory complained, "It's all Lucius Malfoy's fault. He knew we attended the party but refused to help us clarify."

"Don't worry, we'll deal with him sooner or later." Xiang Nan comforted him, "Besides, you don't have to worry about Filch's punishment. Tomorrow we can go to Professor Slughorn to help us clarify."

"That's right." Hearing Xiang Nan say this, Gregory suddenly became happy.

…

Turning around, Argus Filch's punishment turned out to be ineffective.

Because his application for punitive measures to the school was rejected by the principal Albus Dumbledore.

"Argus, I know about Horace's party, and the four of them were indeed invited." He explained to Filch, "So it's not like he went out without permission after curfew."

Hearing what he said, although Filch was very reluctant, he had no choice. After all, he couldn't go against the principal's wishes and could only reluctantly agree.

"Severus, you are right. You really don't have to worry about being punished." After learning the news, Gregory smiled and said to Xiang Nan, "I was really scared to death yesterday. I thought I was really going to do a sweep. "Toilet." "But we have to be more careful in the future, after all, we are on Filch's blacklist," Xiang Nan said with a smile, but he was thinking about how to steal the confiscated books in Filch's office.

Just by looking at the names, you can tell that those books are not simple. It would be great if you could get your hands on them. But it was easy to get those books, but it was difficult not to let Filch notice.

Therefore, Xiang Nan first found a batch of old books of low value, such as "Standard Spells", "History of Magic", "Beginner's Guide to Transfiguration", etc. Such old books are not uncommon in Hogwarts.

Because children in the magical world are no different from children in the Muggle world. They all have the same virtues. After a school year, few textbooks are well preserved and those kept as souvenirs are mostly abandoned.

It seems that in "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", Harry and Ron used old books left by their predecessors, one of which belonged to Snape.

…

After Xiang Nan collected these old books, he paid close attention to Filch's whereabouts.

He discovered that Filch patrolled the castle every day, punishing every student he saw breaking school rules. Instead, he spent very little time in the office.

Obviously, for him, who is over fifty years old, punishing students is more important than rest and maintenance. Xiang Nan didn't know whether to praise him for his professionalism or scold him for being a psychopath.

However, this gave Xiang Nan time to act.

On Wednesday afternoon, after finishing the Charms class, Xiang Nan deliberately spilled a bottle of ink at the door of the library on the fifth floor.

Black ink instantly flowed all over the floor, surprising the librarian Mrs. Pince.

She cherishes the books in the library most and worries about them being defaced by students. Now there is ink on the doorway, which can easily be stepped on by students and brought into the library.

So she immediately contacted Filch to come clean.

A moment later, Filch was seen coming to the fifth floor huffing and puffing with a bucket and mop, complaining and mopping the floor to clean up the ink.

Xiang Nan took the opportunity to run away and came to Filch's office in the basement.

They saw that the office was locked, but Xiang Nan could not be troubled. He silently recited the incantation "Open the Alaho Cave."

Hearing a click, the door lock was unlocked. Xiang Nan quickly opened the door and walked in, then closed the door again. Then he came to the "dangerous goods" drawer, opened the drawer, and took out all the books inside.

There were more than a hundred books in total, all collected by Filch and his seniors over the years. Among them are "Poison Potion", "Powerful Medical Magic", "Advanced Magic Research", "Analysis of the Principles of Black Magic" and so on.

Xiang Nan then used "split apart" to remove the covers of these books, then took out the old textbooks he had prepared, glued the covers on these old textbooks, and then put the old textbooks back in the drawer.

As a result, these books appear to be unchanged, but in fact the contents inside have been completely changed.

Xiang Nan is not afraid that Filch will find out, because he himself is a squib and has no magic power at all. Even the first-grade textbooks are profound enough for him.

So he couldn't tell the difference between these books at all, and even after these books were confiscated from him, he never looked at them again. Because Xiang Nan discovered that many books were covered with dust.
