[Shen Xia + HP] In the name of a detective

"So, you went to school at Beauxbatons?" Unlike the rest of the wizarding world, the Fat Lady didn't seem to have heard of Aurora's heroic deeds.

"No, I didn't go to Beauxbatons either." Aurora admitted calmly, "I'm not a wizard."

The fat lady had an expression of "I understand, I understand", as if she was feeling sorry for her, she opened the circular hole leading to the Gryffindor common room without hesitation, and said, "Okay, let's go in ,children."

The two Aurora brothers and sisters walked into the cave one by one, and a Gryffindor junior who came back to the common room because he forgot to take his History of Magic textbook was stunned and wanted to follow the two of them in.But the fat lady saw his careful thinking, and closed the door immediately after Aurora entered.

"Fat lady, just open the door, I know the password." The student begged.

"No!" The fat lady refused very resolutely, "It's class time now, you shouldn't be here. It's your own fault that you didn't get the textbooks, so you should be more careful in the future."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Behind the wall opening of the entrance portrait is a comfortable circular room filled with soft armchairs, with two spiral staircases leading to the male and female dormitories on both sides.

Aurora went straight to the front of an armchair and fell back on it, as nonchalantly as if it were her own home.She glanced sideways at Aubrey who was sitting next to her, and said, "The layout here is very cozy!"

"Compared to the Slytherin common room, it's much warmer." Aubrey also leaned quietly on the armchair, leaning his family cane on the armrest, commenting like this.

"Slytherin's common room? I read it in "Hogwarts, A School History". It seems to be in the cellar, and you can see the Black Lake outside." Aurora lay on the armchair , slowly closed her eyes, shook her, feeling so comfortable that she was about to fall asleep, "Aubrey, I want to go and see."

"You want to go to the Slytherin common room?" Aubrey said, looking sideways at Aurora, "To be honest, I haven't been there either."

"Let's go, let's go and have a look." Aurora wanted to stand up from the chair, but since she was always lazy, she couldn't get out of bed, so she had no choice but to face such a comfortable soft chair.

"Then we need to seek Professor Mifsud's permission first. After all, he is now the head of Slytherin, and he is known as the successor of Professor Snape. His serious words and smiles come and go like the wind." Rao was Aubrey Such a person who is intriguing and deceitful in the political world can't help but shudder when he mentions Professor Mifsud.

Aurora felt that this Professor Mifsud might not be as easy-talking as Neville Longbottom.And it turns out, she was right.

Walking into Professor Mifsud's office in the cellar, and just exchanging a few words with him, he was tactfully issued an expulsion order, and said that it was impossible to enter the Slytherin common room.

"My younger sister has been curious about what the Slytherin common room looks like since she was a child. She wanted to have a look at it, and she also hoped that Professor Mifsud would make it happen." Although Aubrey's words were somewhat pleading, But the tone is neither humble nor overbearing.

"Your sister? Is this her?" Professor Mifsud looked straight at Aurora beside Aubrey, and her disdainful expression immediately became a little indescribable. Looking at Aurora's face, he murmured, "Like, really like."

"Like what, Professor?" Aurora saw that his eyes were straightened when he saw him, and he looked like he had seen a ghost, showing displeasure on his face.

Professor Mifsud immediately realized his gaffe, and restored his original indifferent expression, but his eyes still glanced at Aurora intentionally or unintentionally, and said, "It's class time now, and all the Slytherin students have Class, you can go to the common room to take a look, but you must make sure to leave before class ends."

"Thank you, Professor." Aurora didn't want to continue talking with him, and only left a faint sentence, and then pulled Aubrey out of the office.

"The password is pure blood." When they had reached the door, Professor Mifsud, who had already bowed his head and continued to work, added.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The entrance to the Slytherin common room was hidden by a stone door in an empty stone wall, so it was impossible to see without looking carefully.Relying on her years of experience as an agent, Aurora groped along the stone wall and found the stone door without any effort.

"Pure blood." Aubrey tapped the stone door with the end of his cane, and said the password at the same time, his tone full of solemnity and austerity.

The stone door opened suddenly.

This is a translucent lounge at the bottom of the Black Lake. The walls on three sides are made of black Gothic marble, and the last side is a huge floor-to-ceiling window. Through the windows, you can see the giant squid and some other creatures in the Black Lake.The ceiling is a transparent semicircle carved with crystal, and Aurora can even see the sparkling light outside through the ceiling. There is a chain on the ceiling tied with a green light.Against the wall there was a fireplace with an ornately carved mantel, and even though the fire was burning inside it was very cold in the room.

There is also a column next to the bulletin board, which is the signature and life motto of all Slytherin prefects.Among them, there is a very interesting motto written by a pair of male and female prefects named Ethan Hilton (Ethan·Hilton) and Annika Black (Annika·Black). And the girl's is "Same left, Ethan Hilton is right".

What a show of love.

While browsing the mottoes of the prefects, Aurora glanced at her brother next to her and asked, "Aubrey, who do you think I am like?"

"Probably someone that Professor Mifsud knew before, I don't know." Aubrey turned his head, subconsciously avoiding Aurora's eyes. In fact, he had already guessed who that person was, but he still said perfunctorily. .

"Professor Mifsud must have a deep friendship with that person. He didn't let us in at first, but after seeing that I resemble her (him), he allowed it." Aurora turned her head and noticed Aub Lee said strangely.

"Lola, do you like it here?" Aubrey asked suddenly and thoughtlessly.

"Are you referring to the Slytherin common room? Although it's a bit cold here, it's not as warm or comfortable as Gryffindor's, but it's still interesting to see the scene in the Black Lake." Olo Pulling back to his senses, he looked out through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and happened to see a giant squid swimming past here.

"I mean, Hogwarts." Aubrey's voice was cold and deep, without any emotion.

"Of course." Aurora thought the question was very stupid and replied dismissively.

"If you have the opportunity to live here forever, would you like it?" Aubrey's usual unquestionable and irrefutable tone was mixed with uncertainty for the first time, as if he was asking her tentatively.

"What do you mean?" Aurora probably understood what Aubrey was planning, raised her eyebrows, and asked.

"The administrator of Hogwarts, Filch, has submitted an application for resignation to the headmaster, Professor McGonagall, due to his age, and she has not yet found a suitable candidate to take over the position." Aubrey stared closely at Aurora Eyes, not leaving for a moment, as if to use Legilimency on her, wanting to read her answer from them.

"Angrily shouted at the group of disobedient little devils, telling them not to bring contraband into the school and not to make a mess in the castle. But if they are disobedient, I have nothing to do, and I have to ask other professors for help. If I can't When you use 'clean up' like you, clean up this huge castle every day in a Muggle way..." Aurora imagined that if she really chose to take over as the administrator of Hogwarts, what would happen in the future? How miserable life would be, asked rhetorically, "Aubrey, based on what you know about me, do you think I would like this kind of life?"

"You don't have to worry about these, I can apply for a professorship here and help you solve all the troubles." Aubrey tried to persuade Aurora to agree to his proposal.

"But as far as I know, there are currently no vacancies for teachers at Hogwarts." Aurora immediately caught the loopholes in his words, pointing out the irrationality of his words, subconsciously biting her lower lip.

"Neville is not very good at communicating with students. I can be his teaching assistant." Aubrey thought of this substitute plan almost immediately when he was questioned.

"Then what about your work in the Ministry of Magic, Mr. Director of the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters?" Aurora asked half-jokingly, half-seriously.

"I can resign to Minister Granger. You also know that when I was young, my plan for the future was to stay at Hogwarts as a teacher. I told you." Aubrey didn't care about the symbol of "Director" at all. The title of power, after all, he got involved in politics from the beginning just to get his father's approval as soon as possible, and to find out about Aurora's whereabouts as soon as possible.

"Of course I remember. If that's the case, why didn't you apply to Principal McGonagall to stay here and teach students when you graduated?" Aurora rolled her eyes down, tilted her head and recalled her childhood memories, and it seemed that there was something wrong with her. With such a thing, he turned around and asked inexplicably, "With your NEWTs (Advanced Wizarding Test) results, it is not difficult to apply for a professor or teaching assistant in any course, I remember you are all O (excellent)."

It was because of her that she gave up the chance to stay.

Aubrey didn't answer her question, and after pondering for a long time in silence, he said, "I don't necessarily want you to live a life you don't want, but I just don't want you to be in danger in the Muggle world."

He didn't want her to encounter danger in a place beyond his control.

Hogwarts, at least, is safe.

The author has something to say:

Let me tell you a little secret, my English teacher is Patrick Mifsud, he is a rigorous teacher~~ The students in the school are a little afraid of him and don’t want to take his class, but I think he is still very good, Of course, his wife is better, and she often gives me books.

Recently, I have been writing my homework in a daze. I thought it was almost the weekend, but it turned out that I haven't. I need to rest!

If the manuscript is really gone, I plan to make up a few chapters by the weekend.Eh, now that I can't rest anymore?

Then I'd better wait until the flowering is over before resting, counting the time with my fingers, a little desperate.

And the five-chapter sugar that brain-dead authors often forget.
