Fortunately the exam week is over, and the OWLs exam is a week earlier than the final exam, so the five-year students kept showing off their easy life in front of other age students in the days before the holiday.Some good-natured people even ran outside the examination room of the final exam, laughing and watching the hard-working candidates.

When the weather is fine, Mirkoda also puts down her books and has a picnic by the Black Lake with her friends.

Sitting on the picnic cloth laid out by the black lake, Emily and Carl immediately got sticky together. You feed me a bite of cake, and I feed you a piece of fruit. The dogs sprinkle candy.Potter, who was stupefied by the sugar, looked hot and started courting Lily, causing Lily to kick him aside.Severus, who was watching the fun, sneered, which made Potter furious, and the two immediately began to sneer. Black saw his brother and the snot-nosed being angry again, and followed suit.

Seeing that the three people were getting more and more noisy, they all started to roll up their sleeves and draw their wands. When they started fighting, Mirkoda and Lily joined forces to suppress the three of them.Of course, Lily was in charge of preaching, and Mirkoda directly strung the three of them together and hung them on the tree by the lake.

"Don't worry, I tied pig's trotter buckles. Mirkoda stood under the tree and said in a voice that everyone could hear: "The pig can't break free, so you three don't have to waste your efforts.Wait until you figure it out before coming down.I didn't want to understand, so I continued to wait for it to dry and use it as bacon. After finishing speaking, Mirkoda pulled Lily back to the tablecloth.

"What does she make us wonder?" Potter asked aloud.

"I don't know, she didn't say it!" Blake said as he struggled, the clasp got tighter and tighter, and he felt like his wrist was about to break. "Do you know what she means? Hey, snotty! Asking you!"

"..." Severus quietly played dead, refusing to talk to these two bastards.

On the other side, Lily asked Mirkoda again: "What do you want them to understand?"

"do not know."

"what?"

"I think they're too noisy."

Lily's face was full of black lines, "Then let them hang around like this?"

"As a prefect, it must be very hard to look at companions who are as energetic as monkeys every day. You also think they should be cleaned up. Right, Lupine?" Mirkota held down the button that wanted to get up to help Lupine and Pedirou.

"Uh...Although I shouldn't think so, I think you're right." After Lupine was pinched by someone's shoulder blades, Pediru also nodded frantically in agreement.

Withdrawing his hand, Mirkoda sat back down again, picked up the teacup and took a sip slowly before continuing, "When they can think of working together, they can come down from the top." Mirkoda looked at the three people who were still struggling, I thought of how my father in the previous life tied the three of them up and hung them on a tree in order to teach them what unity, cooperation and win-win are.Mirkoda sighed: It seems that she is still old, and she actually started to miss things that happened so long ago.

"What if my brother and the others refuse to cooperate?" Regulus was a little worried. He knew how stubborn his brother was, and Senior Snape was not someone who could be easily persuaded.When two people meet, they are like black-eyed chickens, fighting back and forth, and it is almost impossible for them to cooperate.

"Since they want to be bacon, let them hang on like this." Mirko Dachao rubbed the boy's hair irresponsibly, feeling good, pulled little Regulus over, and rubbed it in his arms Come and rub.Regulus lay obediently in her arms, blushing.

Black, who was going to beg for mercy from Mirkoda (Author: Your brother said you are very stubborn. Black: Mirkoda is no one else, it has nothing to do with her showing weakness.) saw his brother lying in Mirkoda's arms to take advantage of him, and stayed where he was. It exploded.

"How could that fellow Regulus act cute with Milkota because of his young age!" Sirius struggled harder, kicking his legs wildly, slapping Potter and Severus's legs together. Butt kicked several times.

"Hey! Dude, Padfoot, calm down! Calm down!" Potter kept reassuring Black: "We must find a way to untie this rope now."

Hearing what Black said, Severus turned his head and saw the scene, he was not calm anymore, he finally said without sarcasm: "According to what I know about her, the rope she tied should need our cooperation to untie it." .And, Black, keep your hooves quiet!"

Mirkoda didn't expect her unintentional behavior at all, so the three who still didn't like each other chose to cooperate.

Milkoda said that she hadn't expected it at all, thinking that they would have to wait for her to let them down in the end.

Regulus: I didn't expect my brother to be so ungrateful.

The whole afternoon was happily spent drinking tea and having snacks while watching Potter, Black, and Severus untie the rope buckle like undoing a braid.

Afterwards, Mirkoda still wiped white cream on their wrists.

It was a full moon again, and accompanied by Madam Pomfrey, Lupine entered the Shrieking Shack from the tree hole of the Whomping Willow to wait for his transformation.The three Potters also ran out of the castle wearing invisibility cloaks after curfew, intending to accompany Lupine.

Passing through an open space in the Forbidden Forest, Potter, who was walking in front, stopped suddenly, and Black and Pediru, who were behind, bumped into him without noticing, pinning him down, and the three of them piled up on top of Arhat.

"Prongs, what the hell are you doing!" Black snapped at Potter.

"Get up, I'm about to be crushed to death by you!" Potter struggled to throw off the two people on his body: "What are you doing? Look over there yourself."

Black and Pedilu looked up together, and saw Mirkota sitting on the open space with her eyes closed, surrounded by lit candles three times, and a magic wand was erected three meters away from her.

"Is this some kind of cult ritual?" The timid Pedilu felt his teeth chattering.

Black gave him a shudder, "Is Mirkoda that kind of person?"

"But it looks like you're panicking!"

"Keep your voices down, don't let her hear you!" Potter tried to cover their mouths.

"It's okay, there is no professor here." Black felt that even if Milkoda found out, nothing would happen.

"Aren't you afraid that she will beat someone!"

"Aren't you afraid that I'll beat someone up?" A female voice overlapped with Potter's voice.

"Uh..." The three of them were taken aback, and when they turned their heads, they saw Mirkoda who was still sitting in the candle circle just now, standing behind them and looking at them leisurely. "It's late at night, and you're out wandering again?"

"Shut, it's none of your business!" Black could feel his face getting hot when he was able to talk to Milkoda so peacefully and at such a close distance.

Behind him, Potter and Pedilu slammed into the tree: Brother, just talking like you is completely doomed.

They had known for a long time that their brothers liked Mirkota, and they had always wondered that the charm of Siris that attracted so many peach blossoms to him must have been played by the snot-nosed ghost to pry this strange flower!But now it seems that they were really wrong to blame the snot-nosed man.

Pedilu bit the bullet and tried to ease the awkward atmosphere, "Miss Williams, what are you doing here?"

Potter covered his face, pretending not to know these two guys: the atmosphere is even more embarrassing, okay!

Milkoda: "Hehe!" What are you doing?How can I tell you that my stupid wand is there to be filled with literature and art, basking in the moonlight.

Lupine, who had just passed the full moon, found an anonymous letter in his schoolbag, which asked him to go to a specific place according to the instructions to meet him alone. The anonymous person also threatened him that if anyone, including his friends and professors, If he finds out, he will reveal his little secret to the public.

In order not to let others know that he was a werewolf, and in order not to be kicked out of Hogwarts, Lupine could only avoid his three friends and go to the appointment alone on the grounds that he was going to the library.

Fortunately, the address in the letter is indeed the No.20 three bookshelves in the library.So although Potter and the others were a little puzzled, seeing that he was indeed going to the library to read, they didn't say anything, and happily ran to the Quidditch stadium to play Quidditch.

Following the instructions in the letter, Lupine came to the No.20 three bookshelves, and found the second letter on the fifth page of the No.18 book on the fifth shelf of the bookshelf.The envelope was addressed to Lupine just like the first, and he tore open the letter, which read:

Mr Lupine:

Congratulations on finding this letter.Now let's play a guessing game. The riddle is: From the Scorpion of the desert to Chiron the Sage, the last two of the three brothers who chase each other will meet again at midnight.A creature without identity, the pupil of supervision.The goad of the Roman nobleman cut the eighth string of the Muses.

At the right time, on the right portrait, I will wait for your visit again.

Enter Anonymous.

Lupine's mouth was drawn into a tight line: it looked like a prank.Knowing that he is a werewolf except Professor Dumbledore and Madam Pomfrey, only his three friends and Snape know.Those three friends of mine wouldn't do that, Snape... he might as well forget it, he was so eccentric that he couldn't think of a riddle.So, who is it?And... I can't figure out the answer at all!Riddles, riddles... Ravenclaw's gates are riddles!So just ask a Ravenclaw student!

Lupine ran to Ravenclaw Tower and waited until Emily and Carl had just finished dating.

"Uh...Miss Jones!" Lupine stepped forward to stop them.Carl saw the letter clutched in Lupine's hand with keen eyes, and immediately frowned: "A girl who has a master, you dare to make a fuss, you boy can do it!"The skin is itchy and wants to be beaten, right?

Carl stared at Lupin fiercely, "Mr. Lupine, I think you should keep a distance of more than ten meters from girls who have boyfriends!"

"...Did you misunderstand?" Lupine, who was regarded as a cracker, explained dumbfoundingly: "I just want to ask Miss Jones to help me solve a riddle."

"Riddles? What kind?" Emily likes riddles the most. She eagerly stretched her head out from behind Carl. Lupine passed the letter, but Carl cut it off halfway and held it in his hand. Emily was just Carl. hand began to read.

"Let me see, from the scorpion in the desert to the sage Chiron. The sage Chiron is the mentor of the centaur in Greek mythology, um... from the scorpion to the centaur, it is Scorpio and Sagittarius, both in November Constellation. The first two of three brothers chasing each other will meet again at midnight? Three brothers chasing each other? Have you ever seen anything that was three chasing each other?"

"Hey! Emily, it's dinner time, aren't you going to eat?" Mia and Jessica crawled out of the common room.

"It's the clock!" Emily, Carl, and Lupine yelled in unison as if they were enlightened upon hearing what the two said.

"You guys go first, we'll go there later." Emily waved to them and let them go first.

Carl took the letter and continued: "Then the last two of them meet again at midnight, which means that it is on time, and with the previous sentence, it means eleven o'clock at night."

"A creation without identity, the pupil of supervision. This should refer to 'O'. In Latin, 'O' represents a vowel, and in Semitic languages, 'O' is a consonant, so it It is a creation without identity. In Phoenician, 'O' stands for eye. The pupils are also suitable." Emily thought of "Old English and Letters and Symbols" that she had read a few days ago.

"A goad for a Roman nobleman. We should look up the history of ancient Rome," suggested Lupine.

The three went back to the library together, and on the way Emily asked Lupine, "Where did you find such an interesting riddle?"

"Well... in the No. 20 book in the fifth shelf of the No. 18 three bookshelves in the library."

"23, five, eighteen. w, e, r, wer, so interesting, this is the meaning of 'person' in ancient Saxon." Lupine's heart skipped a beat when Emily said inadvertently.

"Yes, is it?" Lupine said reluctantly.

Carl, who has been flipping through books, found a record about the Roman Twelve Tables Law, "The Twelve Tables Law is a compilation of traditional Roman customary laws, showing a tendency to safeguard the interests of the nobility and wealthy civilians. Therefore, the nobility's goad Could it be this?"

"In the Phoenician and Hebrew alphabets, L is called lamedh, which is a hieroglyph for oxgoad or whip. So, this one is 'L'."

"Now the eighth string of the Muse remains."

"Muse is the nine ancient goddesses of art and science in Greek mythology, so the eighth string corresponds to the eighth note high note 'do'." Emily put all the information she got Put together a bit: "Eleven at midnight, O, L, do. What does that mean?"

Carl studied the riddle again and said: "The answer should be related to numbers, 11, 15, 12, 8. But it still doesn't make sense."

"What if it's like what I just said? Numbers correspond to letters, K, O, L, h, kolh, it doesn't make sense! Wait, we ignored a little bit, cut off, so it is half of 8, which is 'fa', That is 4, corresponding to F. So it should be K, O, L, F, kolf? Kolf? So it’s just a person’s name.” Emily was a little dissatisfied with the final answer to an interesting riddle of yours, “But , The process is quite interesting. Do you still have such riddles?" Emily looked at Lupine nervously.

Carl pulled his girlfriend back with a dark face, "Okay, now that the riddle has been solved, let's go to eat. Let's go first." After finishing speaking, he was a little reluctant, and wanted to ask Lupine again. Emily, who asked if there were any other riddles, forcibly pulled away.

Lupine watched them leave, then found a portrait with a letter, and asked him, "Excuse me, sir, do you know where there is a portrait of Corfu?"

"I don't know! Go away, you disturbed my rest." Portrait and rudely drove him away.

I asked about several portraits in a row, even the portrait of the fat woman with the big mouth. There was no portrait of Korff in the castle at all.Lupine squatted on the ground in frustration, holding his head and began to review the decryption process just now. "Eleven o'clock...midnight...wait, eleven o'clock in the middle of the night is not 11 but 23, so it's W, O, L, F, wolf, it's wolf!" Lupine was sure again that the unknown man must know The thing about being a werewolf.

"At the right time, the right portrait." Lupine took out the letter again, "The only time I know is eleven o'clock, the portrait, are you looking for a portrait of a wolf?"

After many inquiries, Lupine came to a painting on the sixth floor with the only wolf in the entire castle.

At exactly eleven o'clock, along with the howling of the wolf in the portrait, Lupine saw the third letter in the picture frame.

Mr Lupine:

It seems that you did not disappoint me. Although you invited foreign aid, you still found this place by yourself.That's good, then, the game continues.

There are seven identical bottles in the pool at the Weeping Phaedra, one to reveal the mystery, one to destroy the mystery, three to hold clear water, and two to be killers.Three hints: No matter how cunning the killer is, they are all standing on the left side of the water;

I will wait for the answer.

Enter Anonymous.

Another riddle!Lupine kicked the wall angrily.Crying Phaedra, who knows what is Crying Phaedra, he only knows Crying Myrtle.Uh... a pool of myrtle?

Lupine thought of the abandoned girls' bathroom on the second floor, and decided to try his luck there.He carefully avoided the professor and the ghost and came to the second floor, and found seven identical bottles in a sink in the bathroom.

"...so it's a question of logic." After some research, Lupine chose a bottle and poured it on the back of the third letter.

After looking at the handwriting that gradually appeared behind, Lupine breathed a sigh of relief.I saw it said:

What tree is always very bad?Puzzles can only point to one answer, and I have been waiting for you for a long time in the place you are most familiar with.

Enter Anonymous.

The weeping tree...is Weepingwillow, willow, whooping willow!The most familiar place...is at the Screaming Shack!The man was waiting for me in the screaming shack.

Having solved all the riddles, Lupine was annoyed by the man who was playing him around.He sneaked into the Forbidden Forest, followed the familiar path to the Whomping Willow, and entered the Shrieking Shack through the passage under the tree.Slowly pushing the board away, Lupine carefully looked around with his wand up.

"You're here at last." Lupine recognized the familiar voice.

"Mirkoda." He looked at Mirkoda in disbelief, "Why are you?"

"It's me, are you having fun?" Mirkoda sat on a single sofa. "I've been wondering if you'll give up halfway, but luckily you didn't disappoint me."

Lupine was so angry that he couldn't speak. The most unlikely person was the one who directed all this.

"You look very angry? I thought I gave you enough hints, the location of the second letter combined with the riddle, I thought you knew what I was going to say." Mirkoda propped herself up with one hand Head tilted, sitting crookedly looking at him.

"What the hell are you trying to say? What did you ask me to do! Do you know that I've been in fear all day, and I thought we were friends!" Lupine questioned her with red eyes.

Mirkoda put away her indecisive look and said seriously: "It is better to be afraid for a while than to be afraid for a lifetime." Mirkoda stood up and looked outside through the gap of the boards sealed on the window, "Recently, I There are some more things in my memory that shouldn't be there, and some of them are about you. So, I prepared this." Milkoda took out a pair of armbands from her pocket and placed them in front of Lupine. "Although it cannot prevent you from turning into a wolf during the full moon, at least it will not let you hurt others, and it is enough to ensure the safety of you and others. Whether you wear it or not is up to you."

Lupine was stunned. He didn't expect Mirkoda to make this prop for himself after knowing that he was a werewolf.

"It contains silver, so there is no reaction at ordinary times, but it will suppress part of your magic power during the full moon. I adjusted the above time according to the moon cycle, it will start three days before the full moon, and draw 30.00% of your magic power every day , after you become a werewolf, a metal space will be formed, and you can make a lot of noise in it, after all, it will be quite depressing after a long time." Milkoda saw that Lupine chose to wear an armband, and explained to him The function of the principle.

"...Thank you." Remembering that he had yelled at Mirkota just now and misunderstood her, Lupine was a little embarrassed, but he was still a little surprised: "Why didn't you just give it to me, but took such a big bag?" A circle?"

"It depends on your character and character. It can be regarded as a test." Mirkoda's understatement made Lupine glad that he didn't give up halfway.

"Oh! That's right. If you don't have to take off the armband when you have nothing to do, go to the magic shop every five years, which is the one in Diagon Alley. Go and check the durability of the armband. You need to know everything They all have a lifespan limit." Mirkoda made a final reminder. "It's almost dawn, we should go back."

"Uh... What's the little secret in your letter, Mirkoda?" Lupine felt that he could be so considerate of himself, so even if he gave up, Mirkoda would definitely not announce that he was a werewolf.

"Oh! It's a picture of you enjoying playing with a toy duck in the bath in the prefect's bathroom, taken from your brothers."

"..." You can beat people when you go back, these three bastards!
