Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 199 Negligence

  Late at night, Gryffindor Tower still has windows with lights on. The few people in the dormitory hadn't rested yet, and they were playing wizard cards together.

  With the increase of the types of cards, the gameplay of wizard cards has become more diverse, allowing players to play freely.

   "It's almost time." Albert drank the black tea in his cup, glanced at the pocket watch next to him, and said to the people beside him.

   "Really go?" Lee Jordan was still a little hesitant. Although he also knew the abilities of Fred and George, he still didn't have much confidence.

   "Aren't you going?" Fred asked back.

   "Go, why not?" Lee Jordan muttered, he knew Albert and several people who went out at night and had never been caught by Filch.

   "Come, come, I will give you confidence." George said with a smile.

   "What confidence?" Lee Jordan approached suspiciously, but saw George take out an old parchment and shook it, "This is one of our secret weapons."

"Okay, stop messing around, and get ready to go." Albert picked up his wand, tapped George's head lightly, and a colorless and transparent film enveloped his whole body. Under the eyes of everyone, George Weiss Lai disappeared.

   "This is our second secret weapon." Fred explained with a smile.

   "What about the third secret weapon?" Lee Jordan asked curiously.

   "I won't tell you." Fred and George said in unison.

   "So, there is the third secret weapon?"

  Albert also used the illusion spell on himself. After his body also disappeared, he said to several others: "The illusion spell can last for a few hours. I think it should be enough time."

   "Aren't you very excited, very excited." Fred touched Lee Jordan with his elbow.

   "This is George, Lee Jordan is here."

   "I'm really a little excited, by the way, where are we going?" Lee Jordan asked, he was really a little excited, after all, this is the first night tour.

  Well, that’s not right, I went out with Albert once last time.

  However, that time it was to find Fred and George.

   "I'm going to the library. You can ask Fred and George to take you around. We meet in the room on the eighth floor, and the place we enter is the lounge." Albert said.

   "What's that room on the eighth floor?" Lee Jordan felt that these three guys didn't tell him a lot.

   "You'll find out later," Albert said.

   "Don't you need help?" George asked, "Find that book about the brain?"

   "No, I'm going to use the Flying Curse directly." Albert explained. He just thought that because he didn't know how to use the Flying Curse before, but now that he knows it, it's not difficult to find books.

In the novel, Hermione can use the Flying Curse to get books related to Horcruxes, which means that the books in the library can actually be summoned using the Flying Curse. Although it is locked by iron chains, as long as you know the book There, it's easy to pick the chain that locks the book.

   "Aren't you incapable of flying curses?" Fred looked at Albert suspiciously. He still remembered that a month ago, Albert still talked about his inability to fly curses!

   "No, you can learn it!" Albert said with a half-smile, "This spell is actually pretty good, quite practical."

   "Practical?" Fred couldn't help muttering, he turned off the oil lamp in the dormitory, and followed Albert out of the dormitory.

  The four of them walked through the common room, and when they came out from the entrance, George, who was behind, suddenly said, "Filch is patrolling the fifth floor."

   "How do you know?" Lee Jordan asked suspiciously.

   "Who's there?" The fat lady looked at the empty corridor and asked.

   "Get out of here first." Albert grumbled, and he stepped forward to the secret passage leading to other floors.

   "We'll lure Filch away for you." Fred's eyes lit up, "I've brought a dung bomb."

   "I have super glue here." George was also eager to try.

   "You're killing yourself," Lee Jordan muttered.

   "Inflatable screaming inflatable skeleton." Albert handed something to Lee Jordan, and reminded them, "Don't go too far."

   "We know how to measure." George said.

   "We won't let Filch disturb you looking for books." Fred's tone was also very excited. During the beginning of school, Filch made troubles for them for the last semester.

   "I have a feeling the castle will be lively tonight," Lee Jordan muttered. He still didn't refuse Albert's kindness, and stuffed the inflatable screaming inflatable skeleton into his pocket.

   Several people separated at the secret passage on the sixth floor. Albert went to the library alone, while the Weasley brothers took Lee Jordan to the fourth floor, preparing to play hide-and-seek with Filch.

  …

  At this moment, Filch, who was patrolling the corridor on the fifth floor, didn't know that he was being watched.

Recently, Filch is in a good mood, especially when he caught that Gryffindor student wandering around in the castle in the middle of the night last time, when he was caught by him, the frightened expression on his face was really wonderful , confining the other party made his good mood last until now.

  However, since that time, those students who dare to sneak out at night have almost disappeared.

   "Don't know when I'll catch another one."

  Just as Filch was thinking this way, he suddenly heard the sound of something falling on the ground from downstairs. He immediately pulled himself together and hurried towards the direction of the sound.

  In fact, George and the others who had just walked around to the fourth floor through the secret passage "accidentally" knocked the helmet of a piece of armor to the ground, and only then did the noise just now, to ensure that Filch was attracted.

   This trick actually works, and it always works.

No, Filch hurried to the fourth floor when he heard the sound, Albert stood in the corridor outside the library, watched Filch leave in a hurry, then looked away, stretched out his hand and pushed the library door away. The wooden door went in.

Filch hurried to the armor corridor with the oil lamp, his eyes fell on the armor on the ground, then he raised his head, looked around, bent down to pick up the helmet, and whispered: "It's hiding, isn't it? I will Catch yours, Peeves!"

  The next second, Filch was stunned, because he found that the helmet had somehow stuck to the ground. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't lift the helmet up.

   "Is it Peeves, or..." Filch held the oil lamp and looked around, when suddenly he heard the sound of someone running.

   "Those little bastards." Filch cursed in a low voice, dropped his helmet, stood up and chased in the direction of the footsteps, no matter how stupid he was, he could guess that someone was deliberately playing tricks on him.

  However, Filch was not angry, on the contrary, he was ecstatic. He was not afraid of students wandering around in the castle at night, but he was afraid that no one would dare to come out at night.

   "I'll catch you."

  Filch's eyes were shining dangerously in the darkness, and he couldn't wait to see the terrified expressions on the students' faces after he caught them.

  However, Filch didn't know that the footsteps just now were actually deliberately made by Fred to attract Filch's attention.

  The game of cat and mouse has officially begun.

   Fighting wits and courage with Filch is undoubtedly a great joy for Fred and George at Hogwarts. They have the Marauder's Map in their hands and the Disillusionment Charm on their bodies. With these two insurances, they get up in the middle of the night and wander around and get caught by Filch?

nonexistent.

   "It's really exciting. How do you think Filch will catch up with us and take a shortcut?" Lee Jordan followed Fred closely, communicating with him in a low voice.

"Of course it's a shortcut. He's probably going to block us through a secret passage. Take the stairs to lure him further away." Fred said with a smile while throwing dung bombs into the corridor, "Don't worry, Fei." Elky can't stop us."

  Fifth floor, inside the library.

  Albert had crossed the rope in front of the restricted area and was walking in the restricted area. He raised his wand and whispered, "Advanced Occlumency Guide is here."

  For a moment, there was only a creaking sound, and one of the large bookcases was pulled by the chain and tilted to one side.

  Albert, who was just about to walk over, was stunned and dumbfounded.

  The next moment, he realized that something was wrong.

   "The spell stops!"

  He had already seen the "Advanced Occlumency Guide" summoned by the Flying Curse. However, because the bookshelf was completely tilted, it also brought down the front bookshelf, like a bone Nomi card.

   With a bang, Albert felt his heart was about to pop out of his chest, and the loud noise spread throughout the castle.

  Ebert never thought that because of the summoning of the Flying Curse, the book would pull the iron lock and bring down the bookshelf by the way?

  The Flying Curse is simply poisonous!

   "Restored!" Albert waved his magic wand, trying to restore the bookshelves and books to their original state. In fact, his magic worked, and the fallen books and bookshelves began to return to their original state.

  But Albert didn't dare to stay in the library, and immediately fled the door, forgetting even the idea of ​​looking for "Advanced Occlumency Guide".
