Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 1310 escaped

   "Who's there, come out!"

Harry, who was in charge of the night watch, suddenly closed "The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore", raised his wand and pointed in a certain direction. When he heard the sound, his intuition told him that someone was there just now.

   "Compared with before, there is a lot of progress."

  A voice suddenly sounded from behind, and Harry felt a wand pressed against his neck.

   "Harry, what's wrong?"

  Ron came out of the tent and was taken aback by the scene outside.

   "Albert!"

  Hermione's voice suddenly sounded, breaking the awkward confrontation.

"How did you come."

   After Albert moved his wand away, Harry reached out and touched the place blocked by the wand, and couldn't help asking.

   "People are looking for you everywhere, fearing that you will be murdered by a mysterious person."

  Albert froze for a moment, reached out and patted Hermione on the shoulder, then turned to Harry and said, "Hermione said you want to go to Hogwarts?"

   "Isn't there a communication bookmark?"

  Ron stared at Hermione who had just let go of Albert, and muttered, "Did you tell Albert we're here?"

"Hogsmeade Village has been controlled by the Death Eaters, and it is impossible to get in through the usual methods." Hermione explained to the two colleagues, "Instead of trying to attract the attention of the Death Eaters, it is better to ask Albert for help." , he must have a way to take us in."

  Harry cast an expectant look at Albert.

   "What are you going to Hogwarts for?" Albert asked knowingly.

"In addition to Hufflepuff's gold cup, Ravenclaw's diadem is also likely to be suspicious. I need to go back to Hogwarts to collect information on the diadem." Harry paused, and continued, "Also, I suspect Voldemort Likely hiding a Horcrux at Hogwarts."

   "Don't use that name Harry," screamed Hermione.

  The next moment, there was a deafening explosion outside, followed by five red dots on the detection pocket watch, and a standard search team appeared in this abandoned apartment.

   "You really... haven't learned your lesson, or do you want to use me to take revenge on those dark wizards." Albert looked at Harry Potter who just said Voldemort's name with a strange expression.

   Voices were already heard outside, and the voices were getting closer, and all four of them could hear the rude and excited tone of the group of black wizards.

   "Isn't this place protected by the Fidelity Curse?" Harry asked puzzled.

   "I'm the secret keeper here." Albert reminded: "Let's deal with them first, do you need to practice?"

The three of them exchanged glances with each other tacitly, and then used the Disillusionment Curse on themselves, and then Hermione summoned the Patronus to attract the members of the search team. The three of them took the opportunity to leave the shelter and cast it directly on the five black wizards Stunning spell.

   The sneak attack went smoothly, successfully bringing down two black wizards.

   The hallway fell into chaos in an instant.

   Immediately followed by mutual confrontation.

  The two stunned dark wizards were also awakened later, and Harry's side fell into a disadvantage.

   After eight minutes of confrontation, Hermione finally threw two blast bombs to break the stalemate.

   "It's been longer than I expected." Albert closed his pocket watch and said.

   "It's already very good, the opponent has two more than us." Ron argued, "If there are only three of them, we can definitely solve them quickly."

"You can be said to have the upper hand, forget it, what are you going to do with them?" Albert raised his hand and declined the wand offered by Hermione: "Keep the wand for yourself first, and use it as a spare if you have one, although most dark wizards The wands used may not be suitable for you."

   "Great, a great harvest."

  Ron's eyes were full of excitement when he reached out and took out a handful of Galleons from the pockets of several dark wizards.

   "Ron."

  Hermione wanted to cover her face a little bit, she felt that Ron's behavior was really embarrassing.

"It doesn't matter. They are all enemies anyway. You don't have to be too polite to them. Even if you kill them, that's normal, let alone take away the spoils." Albert smiled and looked at Ron who picked up the gold. , reminded: "However, I suggest that you wear dragon leather gloves first when searching for loot, which is safer."

   "Ahem, what are you going to do with them." Harry turned his head to Albert for advice.

   "You defeated them."

   "Can you send them to a Muggle prison?"

   "Of course." Albert glanced at Hermione and said, "But I'm afraid we don't have much time, so I suggest you tamper with their memories."

   "I thought you were going to kill him."

  Ron put the valuable loot in the bag, and Albert let them go by some surprise.

   "Honestly, I don't like killing people. If you can't do it, it's better not to do it."

   "I remember you said that being kind to the enemy is the greatest cruelty to yourself."

   "That's not kindness, but I don't like it. It's so easy to become indifferent to life." Albert shook his head and explained.

Ron was speechless for a moment. He felt that Albert was the least qualified to say that. There were quite a few Death Eaters and dark wizards killed by him. Although those people were killed by the Ministry of Magic, if they were to be counted, the This one is at least half responsible.

   "Then I'll erase their memories now." Hermione raised her wand and prepared to use the Oblivion Charm.

   "Let me come, lest they continue to do evil in the future."

   Albert raised his wand and pointed it at the head of a dark wizard. Since then, there have been five more homeless people in the British magic world.

"what have you done?"

  Ron looked at the dark wizards who had been changed and changed into tattered clothes.

"They have forgotten their status as wizards, and they will continue to live as homeless people in the future, and will no longer threaten the lives of others." Albert smiled and made a boo gesture to the three, reminding, " Remember to keep it a secret."

   "That's good." Harry nodded, "At least, they're still alive, and they'll have a life to turn over a new leaf."

  Ron's face twitched slightly. Looking at the unconscious people, he felt deep malice.

  It is better to die than to live in a muddle.

  After throwing a few people elsewhere, Albert turned back to the three and said, "Are you going to Hogwarts now?"

   "Can you come with us?" Harry asked suddenly.

   "Do you need someone to **** you?" Albert asked with a strange expression.

  Harry expressed his doubts.

   "It makes sense, your way of thinking is fine." Albert nodded, "I can go with you. If Snape is at school, I can help you subdue him depending on the situation."

   "How do we get back to school?" asked Ron, "By the secret passage?"

   “House-elves don’t have the same magic as wizards, and they can Apparate freely at Hogwarts.”

  Albert waved his wand and summoned Dobby the house elf who was at the Defense Association headquarters out of thin air.

   "Mr. Anderson, Dobby is glad to be of service to you." The house elf bowed respectfully to Albert as soon as he appeared.

   "Harry, Hermione and Ron are going to Hogwarts." Albert said to Dobby, "I hope you will take us there."

   "Ah, Harry Potter, Dobby is glad to help Harry Potter."

   Dobby turned his head to see Harry, and gave him a hug excitedly.

   "Dobby, long time no see."

  Harry looked up and down at Dobby's attire, his face was full of unconcealable surprise, the house elf in front of him was covered in a cloth cover, clean and decent, and more energetic than before.

   "How are you doing recently?" Hermione was delighted with Dobby's change.

   "Dobby likes his job very much." Dobby said excitedly.

   "Did Albert give you that dress?"

   "Miss Granger, this is not a dress." Dobby pulled the cloth on his body and said sharply, "It's just a piece of cloth."

   "A piece of cloth?" Hermione asked suspiciously.

   "Yes, a piece of cloth," Dobby repeated.

   "I think it would be a lot better if all the house-elves wore this," said Hermione.

   "I'm afraid it will be difficult." The house-elf was a little embarrassed.

   "Okay, I think we should go." Albert interrupted.

  The house-elf raised his arm and said sharply, "Please hold on to Dobby, everyone."

  The next moment, the four disappeared.

   "Why Apparate twice?"

  At the entrance to the Room of Requirement on the eighth floor of Hogwarts, Ron stretched out his hand to the wall and retched.

"For a wizard with extraordinary strength, it is actually not difficult to follow the traces left by the other party's apparition, and the mysterious person obviously has the same ability." Albert opened the entrance to the Room of Requirement, and said to the three, " Go ahead and rest."

   "Can you do it too?" Hermione walked into the Room of Requirement, looked at the rest area inside, sat down on the sofa, and asked after a breath, "What's the principle?"

   "That also involves the use of advanced tracking spells." Albert explained, "So, if you don't want to be tracked, it is the best choice to use the area where Apparition is prohibited as a springboard."

   "Hogwarts can't Apparate either."

  Harry sat down opposite Hermione, took out the Marauder's Map and began to check the situation at Hogwarts Castle.

   "I know, but keep it in the habit lest you forget, and that will get us in big trouble."

   Albert waved his magic wand, conjuring several drinks out of thin air.

"Thanks."

  Hermione took a sip of the milk tea, seemed to think of something again, and asked suddenly, "By the way, what happened just now, did the Loyalty Curse fail?"

   "I'm glad you asked about it."

   "That reminds me of Dumbledore," Harry muttered, but he also wanted to know why.

"The Loyalty Curse is to use magic to hide a secret forever in the soul of a living person." Albert explained to the three of them, "You can compare that shelter to a box, and that box is hidden in my In my mind, entering there with my permission is equivalent to hiding in my mind. Of course, others can’t find you, because you are hidden in my mind at that time. But I can’t do it myself, because I I can't hide in my own mind, so once I appear in the protective area of ​​the Fidelity Curse, there will be a risk of exposure there."

   "So, the best way is for the two secret keepers to keep each other secret. As long as they hide each other deep in each other's soul, they cannot be found."

   "So it is."

  Ron thought of George, he was the secret keeper of the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix, and he was staying under the protection of Albert.

   "Snape isn't at Hogwarts." Harry looked a little disappointed, "Fortunately for him."

   "Where's Professor McGonagall?" Albert asked.

   "Professor McGonagall is in the office." Harry looked up and asked, "Aren't you going to find Ravenclaw's diadem with us?"

   "No, I'll go to Professor McGonagall and meet here later." Albert got up and left.

   "Harry, where are we going to find the crown?" Ron looked away and asked Harry.

   "Let's go to Professor Flitwick first." Harry took out Felicia and drank it. He needed luck very much now.

   "It's best to get the help of Ravenclaw ghosts, maybe they will have information about the crown." Hermione reminded.

   "I know, so let's go to Professor Flitwick first, he is in his office." After confirming that there were no Death Eaters in Hogwarts, Harry also dared to act boldly.
