It is not known where the news came from.

On the second day after Harry and his confinement ended, rumors began to spread about the corridor on the fourth floor.

Accidents, casualties, treasures... are spread more and more mysteriously.In the back, the whole of Hogwarts was shrouded in the cloud brought by this top-secret corridor.

For some students, it is likely that they will never remember exactly how they passed their final exam.That day, people were panicked or couldn't hide their excitement - countless hearsay news reached their ears.Some people said that the heavily guarded corridor on the fourth floor was stolen, and the demons sealed in it were about to escape to heaven.Some people say that there is the most evil magic that can suck people's souls... Some people say, some people say, and some people even mentioned the mysterious man...

"It's finally over." Ron said when they followed the crowd to the sunny place outside, "You don't know what time I read by the lamp these days just to write down the names of those weird goblins!"

They walked slowly down the slope to the lake, passing through the chattering crowd.Over there, Li Jordan was gesticulating with the Weasley brothers and stopped when he saw them coming.

"Hi, hello." Li Jordan said, looking at Harry unavoidably.One of the twins winked at the other.

"We're getting ready for an exciting journey!"

"Maybe it's dangerous!"

"But also great!"

"You'll never guess what's in there unless you'll be the opener. We guess—" Two redheaded Weasleys drove their little brother, looking mysterious and serious, " Maybe you'll find a Dumbledore lover there."

With a snort, Harry laughed out loud.My God, my God, this is not a beautiful association!Hermione looked at the twins with a straight face, which meant that the joke was really boring.

Fred put his arms around Harry's neck, "Do you have any insight into our thinking?" Harry suppressed a smile, "No, I just imagined the scene where the lover tied a bow on the headmaster's beard every day. He winked at the petrified twins, earning a few "oh-oh-oh" from the other.The Weasley twins circled around Harry a few times, "You are very good, cutie, you are really good."

"Thank you." Harry readily accepted.

"You deserve it, wicked little Hufflepuff." The twins patted Harry on the shoulder.He waved his hand smartly, "See you later, Harry."

They walked away with Lee Jordan, and Harry guessed that the three of them might have gone to discuss a plan to break into the corridor on the fourth floor at night.But it also has to be said that the situation is serious.

In fact, the reason why the rumors became more and more intense has something to do with Quirrell.He didn't know how to deal with Lu Wei, so he thought about asking the curious students of Hogwarts to find out for him.

Fortunately, because of Dumbledore's strict precautions, all the students who tried to break into the corridor on the fourth floor were pulled back.But it is precisely because of this that the curiosity of the students is aroused.

"I have to tell Professor McGonagall, it's too dangerous!" Hermione said worriedly, "How could they challenge the three-headed hellhound, even Quirrell doesn't know how to deal with it—oh——!"

The little girl jumped up suddenly.

"What's the matter with you?" Ronyou asked sleepily, because the weather was too hot and he couldn't cheer up because of the review.

But Hermione didn't answer him, and ran away in a hurry.And when Ravenclaw came back, the startling news drove his drowsiness away in an instant——

"That—the one who gave Hagrid the dragon egg is Quirrell—Hagrid has already told him the method, just a little music—Merlin! Quirrell must be going to steal the Philosopher's Stone, he will choose this time, because Professor Dumbledore is off to London for a conference!"

Ron jumped up, no longer sleepy.

"We've got to go to the professor right now, we have to stop him, we can't wait any longer! Harry, you said, Quirrell's master is that man."

Yes, that's right.Harry had revealed something to them the day after he returned from the Forbidden Forest, and he wondered if the day Ron and Hermione knew he was watching them digging up the truth, those two would kill him !

"I think we should go to Professor Snape," Harry suggested, thinking again, it's never good to have Snape and Voldemort face off.

So he shrugged, knowing it was his turn.

Harry asked Hermione to inform Professor McGonagall, and asked Ron to monitor Quirrell's movements.Alone, alone, with an invisibility cloak and a wand, he thought he had successfully dismissed the two of them, but was blocked by Slytherin at the door of the common room.

"Don't do dangerous things, Potter." Draco warned with a gloomy face.

Harry pretended not to understand, "What are you talking about, Draco?"

"Potter!" Slytherin's voice raised, "What you are going to do has been heard, and now Slytherin is talking about you, a stupid savior, and it is estimated that we will get up early tomorrow morning and wait for us to collect your body Bar."

They did make a lot of noise by the lake, Harry thought, smiling mischievously.He was thinking about casting some spells on Draco.

Draco saw through Hufflepuff's intentions at a glance.

"I advise you not to make any small moves." Slytherin said roughly, he pushed Harry a little, as if giving alms and giving up on himself, "Let's go...you're crazy!" He said, staring at Harry .

Others may not be able to see Harry's thoughts.

Therefore, it was not surprising to see Ron and Hermione in the restricted corridor on the fourth floor.

"You don't want to get rid of us." Hermione said fiercely with her hands on her hips, "You want to go get the Philosopher's Stone by yourself? Just dream! I tell you, it's impossible, Harry Potter!"

The little girl got angry for a while before letting him go. When they opened the door, there was already a clarinet inside. Obviously, someone had already come.

"I went to the office, but Quirrell wasn't there anymore," Ron said, humming, which, in Draco's words, was pig squawking.

But Fluffy fell asleep at the noise like that, and they pushed open the trapdoor and jumped in.Having experienced it once, these light cards are not difficult for Harry - or should be said, too simple!

They passed all the way, Draco and Ron played a good game of chess on Professor McGonagall's chessboard, and after killing the white king, they got a pass to move on.

Run through the troll's room, before Snape's level - here comes the puzzle!

Only enough for one person to pass.

"Let's go back," Draco said.

Harry shook his head, "Not us, but you—"

"Stop kidding." Draco interrupted him, sarcastically, "Who do you think you are, the savior who saved the world with a scarred head?"

"Shut up, Malfoy!" Ron said angrily, "Just admit it's because you're a coward!"

"It's none of your business, Weasley." Draco said gruffly, his gray eyes looking at Harry. "Listen, Potter, I thought you got it." He tried to calm himself down. , "Obviously, someone deliberately set up this checkpoint. I can't say what the purpose is, but one thing, if the target is that person, can you deal with it?"

Although still young, this Slytherin saw the crux of the matter at a glance.

"Stop being a hero, Potter," he said, and there was even a hint of pleading in his voice.Gray-blue eyes looked into Harry's, and Harry's heart gradually softened.

It's really not necessary, even if he doesn't go to Quirrell, he shouldn't be able to do anything.Since Dumbledore came to lure Voldemort with the Sorcerer's Stone, it means that the old man will be fully prepared.

Harry thought so, then nodded at Draco, "Okay, let's go back."

But as soon as his words fell, a person walked into the threshold.

Quirrell changed his timid and cowardly image, and stared at the expected and unexpected visitors with a pair of dark eyes.Potter and the others are possible, but a Malfoy - that's up for negotiation.

"Nice to meet you," Quirrell said, "I've always wondered who would be the first to me, and this will save me a lot of trouble."

"Trouble?" Harry said warily.

"At least you don't have to deal with trolls. To be honest, I really don't like dealing with trolls."

Who would that be—before them and Quirrell.Harry's mind raced, and he quickly came up with an answer—ah, the Weasley twins!

"You don't seem to be surprised. I should have known - you were wandering around the school on Halloween. At that time, you should have seen me check the mechanism of the Philosopher's Stone. As for you, little girl -" Quirrell suddenly stepped forward Taking a step forward, he stared at Hermione, as if he had discovered something interesting.

"Your spell is good, it burned my favorite robe."

"What are you doing!" cried Ron, trying to keep Hermione behind him with his arms outstretched.

Quirrell snapped his fingers.Before long, an invisible force knocked Ron into the air, and the red-haired Weasley was thrown to the ground, his limbs sprawled, unconscious.

"Don't get in the way." Quirrell looked at the fainted Ron and said contemptuously. He turned his head triumphantly - but at this moment, his eyes went dark, and Harry's figure had already jumped on him.

The place where the skin meets looks like it has been scorched by fire, it is shiny red, and layers of ashes are falling.

Mutations come so fast—

Quirrell's screams echoed in the empty stone room. He was in pain and wanted to give Harry a death curse, but Draco, who reacted, disarmed his weapon.The caught face began to blister rapidly, and an eerie voice came from behind Quirrell's head: "Kill him! Kill him quickly!" Voldemort roared at his men in pain, but to no avail, Harry died Clinging to Quirrell's face, there was no possibility of compromise, until his subordinate's face was scattered into a pool of ashes...

Voldemort escaped after all, but Quirrell was left forever in that dark basement.In this chess game, Dumbledore needs the Sorcerer's Stone as the starting chip, and Voldemort needs to make a gamble to get the chip.This is a contest between the old headmaster and Voldemort.

At this point, Harry also understood a truth - the power of the game is in the hands of the strong.

……

His body didn't suffer too much damage this time, but Mrs. Pangley still asked him to observe in bed for two days and kicked out everyone who wanted to visit.During this period, Slytherin won the Academy Cup again. Dumbledore added [-] points to the four houses which were fair, and Slytherin won the trophy again with a slight advantage.

And Ron, the guy who passed out due to the stun spell, didn't wake up until the third day.At that time, he turned his head and saw Harry sitting on the hospital bed beside him.

He froze for a moment, with a strange expression on his face, resentful and angry, and finally turned into a roar.

"Tell me, how did you develop this weird character?!"

How did you develop it?Harry smiled and gave the redhead Weasley a big hug.

"I don't think you would like to know, my dear little Luoluo."

"Potter! Don't call me random nicknames!"

"That's not okay, Xiao Luoluo is my pet name for you..."

Ron's awakening can be said to be a big surprise before the end of the semester, and it also heralds a brand new beginning.

At this moment, in the bright winter sun, the students of Hogwarts packed their bags and were about to embark on the journey back.On the contrary, for them, the wheel of history has just begun...
