Dark Lord, please let go

The magic books in the Forbidden | Books section are of course not suitable for students under the fourth grade to read. The knowledge learned by little wizards under the fourth grade will not involve very advanced parts at all. There is no need for books, let alone go to the forbidden book area to check any information.

Draco also knew that it would be unwise to say it for the sake of learning, at least he wouldn't believe it.So he sat in Professor Slughorn's office for a while and then left. Before he left, Slughorn didn't let him go to the restricted | book area to approve the note.Even Draco's nefarious mention of his great-grandfather old Malfoy didn't help, and Slughorn changed the subject as if he didn't notice Draco's intentions.

After coming out of Professor Slughorn's office, Draco made up his mind to find an opportunity to take a night tour to the forbidden | book area tonight. Although this is a bit risky and easy to be discovered by Tom, even if he is caught Living is only a point deduction and a labor penalty. He thinks that there is nothing more important than finding a magic book about time travel.

Draco and Tom had been working on their Potions papers in the library before curfew. Although the papers were only thirteen inches long, they took the absent-minded Draco so long that Tom couldn't even do the arithmetic and divination homework. After finishing writing, Draco put down the quill in his hand.

Tom raised his eyebrows, watched Draco carelessly roll up the paper and stuffed it into his schoolbag, then lowered his voice and asked, "What are you worried about, Draco? Have you been absent-minded all night?"

Draco pursed his lips, feeling a little annoyed, so far he couldn't think of any good way to go out for a night tour without attracting Tom's attention.

"Oh, it's nothing, it's almost curfew, we have to go back to the dormitory quickly, if we are caught by Pringle (administrator) we will deduct points." Draco stuffed all his textbooks into his schoolbag and turned around He saw Tom staring at him with probing eyes, and he didn't clean up the textbooks on the table.

Draco frowned, glanced at the textbooks that were still messed up on the table, "You don't clean up? It's almost time for curfew."

"I'm sorry Draco, you have to sleep alone in the dormitory tonight." Tom smirked at Draco, quickly put away his textbooks, and carried his schoolbag on his back behind. "Tonight, I have something to do."

Tom likes to go out at night, and Draco knows very well that in the first grade, Tom once sneaked to the restricted | book area of ​​the library to check Slytherin's materials behind his back in the first grade, but now, Tom doesn't even need to cover up, Just tell Draco he's going on a night tour?What's wrong with Tom, does he think he'll support his nocturnal activities?

"You're going on a night tour again." It was an affirmative sentence, and Draco even suspected that Tom was going to visit the restricted|restricted section of the library tonight.

"There are some things that I need to confirm."

After speaking, Tom didn't wait for Draco's answer, took his arm and the two left the library together.It's just that after arriving at the Slytherin common room, Tom didn't go back to the dormitory. Instead, he handed the schoolbag to Draco, and turned around and walked out the door by himself.

Draco surprisingly didn't stop Tom's behavior, he just watched Tom turn and leave silently until the door of the lounge closed again.Since Tom won't be going back to the dorm today, it means that Draco doesn't have to think of ways to get rid of him at all.

Putting the schoolbags of the two back into the dormitory, Draco cast a disillusionment spell on himself, and suddenly felt something cold flow into his body. When he was ready for the disillusionment spell, Draco took out Tom's Christmas card again. This is the Christmas gift I gave myself on Christmas Eve, the brooch that can cover up the sound of footsteps.

To be honest, he didn't expect Tom's Christmas present to come in handy, so much so that he thought he would never wear the fake gemstone brooch.But it is obvious that this brooch is a good thing for night tours. With the Disillusionment Curse and this brooch, Draco feels that it is not much worse than the scarhead savior's invisibility cloak, at least the scarhead savior's invisibility cloak cannot cover the sound of.

Coming out of the Slytherin cellar, Draco walked towards the library.

Hogwarts Castle at night is always so gloomy, the torches on the walls give off a dim light, the paintings on the walls are all sleeping, there is no one in the corridor, and the torches make a quiet sound Can hear clearly.

Draco didn't walk fast. Although the magic brooch could cover the sound of footsteps, Draco was still worried. He was very careful with every step he took, trying not to make any noise.At Hogwarts, Dumbledore would definitely be able to see through Draco's Disillusionment spell, and he didn't want to be caught by the professor without even touching the door of the library.

The distance was not too far, and Draco's journey went very smoothly, and he didn't meet the administrator or professor.

From the outside, the library was pitch black.

Draco carefully pulled out his wand, and said softly, "Alahoo hole!" Following Draco's spell, the library door creaked in a low voice, which was very clear in the quiet corridor.Draco didn't push open the library door immediately, he waited for a while to confirm that no one really noticed the door opening, and then pushed the door open and walked into the library.

In the forbidden book area, rows of bookshelves are filled with magic books of various ages.Borrowing the moonlight, Draco squinted his eyes and scanned the bookshelves quickly.

The Rise and Fall of the Dark Arts, A Guide to Witchcraft, Dark Powers...

"..." Draco was very confused for a moment, he suddenly found that the ring with black magic around his neck might be mentioned in these books, unless he spends every day in the forbidden | What relevant information can be found in so many books.

Why did he forget that if he wants to unlock the secret of time travel, he must first figure out what the ring is.

"What the hell!" Draco muttered dissatisfiedly in a low voice, and then he pulled out a thick magic book from the shelf without even seeing the title clearly, turned to the catalog page, and quickly scanned the catalog, After not finding what he wanted to know, he quickly changed to another magic book.

After reading the catalogs of at least a dozen magic books, Draco found desperately that he might need to travel six or seven times at night to check all the books in the forbidden | You can travel so smoothly, and enter the library without being noticed by anyone.

Putting the magic book in his hand back on the shelf again, Draco rubbed his increasingly dry eyes. He had been in the library for more than two hours. Although it was still a long time before dawn, Draco Ke decided to stop today's night tour, and he needed to go back to the dormitory to catch up on sleep.Draco didn't want to see two dark circles under his eyes in the mirror tomorrow.

Coming out of the library, Draco carefully cast another Disillusionment Charm on himself, he didn't want to suddenly appear in the corridor halfway through.

Draco couldn't help being irritable when he thought that he got nothing from the night tour today. He was not as obsessed with night tours as Tom was. If he had a choice, he would rather lie in the dormitory and sleep well.

The corridor was still very quiet, and Draco walked cautiously towards the cellar, but at this moment, footsteps suddenly came from the quiet corridor, and the direction of the footsteps was the Slytherin common room.Draco stopped abruptly, not daring to move, he didn't know who the person walking in front of him was, if it was the administrator Pringle, then Draco just stood there quietly and waited for him to walk over. .But if it was Dumbledore, Draco felt that his Disillusionment Curse would definitely not work...

The footsteps were getting closer and closer, and just when Draco didn't know what to do, he was hugged fiercely, and a hand covered his mouth that was about to scream at the right time, and the man behind him was rude dragged Draco into a secret passage.The moment the secret passage closed, Draco heard the man from the hallway approaching.

"Shut up, Draco."

Although the voice next to his ear was low, Draco recognized it was Tom's voice at the first time, and he immediately relaxed. Although Draco was unwilling to meet Tom under such circumstances, it was better than Better to be caught by the professor.Leaning in Tom's arms, he heard the footsteps outside the secret passage becoming clearer and further away until they disappeared.

"Why are you here, Draco? I remember that you don't support night tours." Tom chuckled, but he didn't let go of Draco's arm, still half hugging and half hugging Draco. Draco leaned into his arms, and Draco could even feel Tom's warm breath on his cheeks, which slowed his heartbeat by half a beat.

He struggled awkwardly, but the secret passage was very narrow, and Draco didn't break free from Tom's arms.

"I'm here to look for you, Mr. Riddle of Nightwalker." Draco gritted his teeth, feeling that his current posture is really terrible, and he is in a weak position no matter how he looks at it. "let go!"

"If I remember correctly, you didn't stop me when I came out of the lounge—" Tom paused for a moment before continuing, "Besides, I thought you liked my arms and didn't want to I let go of Draco." Even though he said this, Tom let go of his hand in time, and he didn't want Draco to get into trouble with himself again because of this trivial matter.

"Oh Merlin, what nonsense are you talking about!" Draco rolled his eyes, then pulled out his wand from his pocket, "Luminescence!"

The light from the wand finally allowed Draco to see where they were. It was a dark secret passage, very narrow, with various snake patterns engraved on the stone walls, and the secret passage was very long. Draco held the wand Stretched forward, there is no end in sight.
