Obscure at Hogwarts

Chapter 250 Treasure Hunt in the North Tower

Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of George and Fred's excited looks. Louis couldn't help but sigh helplessly, thinking that they must ask Vayne what strange thing happened in the north tower of the castle.

But Louis is human after all.

Not God.

The development of the plot later was different from what he imagined.

Almost as soon as Vayne finished speaking, before George could get excited, Fred asked a question. The timid Ron took the first step and asked tremblingly:

"Aunt Vivienne, this castle can't be haunted, right?"

"Haunted?"

Suddenly hearing Ron's question, Vayne was unable to follow his thoughts for a moment and was slightly startled.

Ron mistakenly thought that his choice of words might be a bit off, so he swallowed nervously and explained: "Haunted, does it mean that there are ghosts in this castle?"

"So you meant ghost."

Vayne shook her head gently and said: "Don't worry, the entire castle is under the protection of the magic circle, and creatures like ghosts will never exist."

"Aunt Vayne, can you tell me the reason why the North Tower was banned?"

George and Fred seized the opportunity and laughed in unison, "We are all very curious as to what kind of problem it is that can keep an excellent wizard like Mr. Galio away!"

"George, Fred, shut up!"

Knowing that it was extremely impolite to inquire into other people's private affairs, Molly suppressed her anger and reprimanded her in a low voice, then turned to Vayne and said apologetically:

"Sorry, Miss Wayne, these two children of mine are quite naughty. Please forgive them if there is any offense to them."

"Nothing, Mrs. Morley."

Vayne said calmly: "Actually, it's not offensive. It's just that there was a slight problem with the magic circle in the castle recently, which caused the magic circle on the north tower to be unstable. The master was afraid that his servants would be accidentally injured, so he ordered The North Tower is temporarily banned.”

With that said, Vayne changed the topic and asked everyone:

"Shall we go to the greenhouse now?"

"Okay, Miss Vayne."

Sophia held Molly's shoulder intimately, smiled and said, "Molly, I really like the way the flowers are in bloom. Come and see them with me!"

"Ok."

Molly also smiled and nodded, facing Vayne and said:

"Then please ask Miss Vayne to lead the way for us."

"Ah."

Immediately, after Vayne continued to lead the way for everyone, she saw Molly glared at George and Fred fiercely, which meant to remind the two of them not to ask any weird questions. Louis felt that it was funny. At the same time, he slowly shifted his gaze to Vayne's back.

Because when Vayne explained Galio's ban on the North Tower, even though Louis did not use mind reading on her, he was still sure that Vayne was lying just now.

Want to ask why?

Very simple.

It was due to a slight fluctuation in Vayne's mood.

I think back then, Louis really took great pains to solve the disadvantages of the three-headed transformation, and finally solved the problem of being emotionally affected after using the three-headed transformation.

After using the three-head transformation to solve the problem, Louis naturally gained a wonderful ability, that is, like a psychologist, he can distinguish several obvious emotions of others.

As for the reason why Vayne lied, Louis didn't think much about it, thinking that there must be something unspeakable.

However, George and Fred, who were all excited, could not care so much. So when they followed Vayne to the flower house built by Shyvana in the castle, they simply put their arms around Louis' shoulders and the other. He touched Harry's shoulder and whispered:

"Louis, Harry, Fred and I can confirm that the castle's treasure must be hidden in the north tower!"

"George is right. Mr. Galio must have discovered this in advance. In order to prevent others from finding the treasure before him, he ordered the North Tower to be sealed!"

"Not as good"

"How about we sneak to the North Tower to hunt for treasure now when no one is paying attention?"

Listening to George and Fred's suggestions, Harry's eyes twitched fiercely a few times, and he smiled bitterly: "Sneaking in? Isn't that good?"

"What's wrong?" George asked in return.

Harry hesitated for a moment and replied in a low voice: "The treasure was originally left to Mr. Galio by the ancestors of the Smith family. Would it be okay for us to go there privately?"

"What can you do?"

Fred retorted confidently: "We are not trying to steal the treasure, we are just enjoying the process of treasure hunting. If we find the treasure, we must give it to Mr. Galio!"

George and Fred were speechless in retorting, and Harry could only look at Louis for help.

at the same time.

Louis took a deep look in the direction of the North Tower, and then said calmly: "Don't think about treasure hunting. Aunt Wei En just said it right. The North Tower is indeed very dangerous. If you two If you are willing to risk your life for the treasure, you can go hunting for it any way you want, but Harry and I will never go there anyway."

"Danger?"

Noticing that Louis' attitude was very determined, George and Fred looked at each other and asked, "Louis, can you tell me what's going on?"

"It can be a little complicated to explain."

Louis slowly explained to the twins and the curious Harry:

"To put it simply, the magic circle originally designed by the Smith family is a double-edged sword. The owner of the castle needs to continue to input magic power into it in order to use the magic circle to form protection."

"However, Mr. Galio and Mrs. Shyvana are old, and they can no longer deliver as much magic power to the magic circle as they did when they were young. Therefore, the magic circle originally used to protect the castle has revealed its sharp blade, and the current shrouded The area is exactly what Aunt Vayne calls the North Tower."

"You understand what I mean?"

Obviously, neither George, nor Fred, nor Harry, the youngest among them, were fools. After hearing Louis' explanation, they naturally understood that there was danger in the North Tower at this time.

But I really have to give up on treasure hunting

George and Fred were a little reluctant again.

Therefore, the two of them could only stare at Louis pitifully and plead:

"Louis, we all know that you are the most capable, can you think of a way?"

"Do you want me to break the magic circle here?"

Louis raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile: "That's very simple. As long as you nod, I can break the magic circle here in a blink of an eye. But who are you going to bear the consequences of doing so?"

"Uh, Louis, calm down, we didn't ask you to break the magic circle here."

George was so frightened that he shrank his neck, while Fred said with a dry smile: "Isn't there any better way? For example, Louis, you can send some magic power into the magic circle to stabilize the entire magic circle?"

"It's hard."

On the surface, Louis seemed to be shaking his head and rejecting George and Fred's proposals, looking helpless.

Actually

Quietly paying attention to the changes in the magic circle on the north tower, Louis was attracted by some unknown ingredient hidden inside!

"The situation on the north tower side"

"It's really worse than what Vayne said!"
