Ancient Warlocks at Hogwarts

Chapter 147 Innocent Gemma Farley?

By the time Andre and Sirius ran all the way to the corridor on the eighth floor, Gemma Farley's name was no longer on the Marauder's Map, and there was nothing on the wall opposite the tapestry. It was obvious that the other party had entered the Response to Requirements Room.

"What should we do, should we just wait here for them to come out?" Sirius asked.

"No, we have to find a way to get in and destroy the disappearing cabinet before the mysterious man and his men arrive." Andre shook his head. He didn't think this was a good idea. Ma Farley waited for Voldemort to enter the Room of Requirement through the Vanishing Cabinet and then come out. Although it was still unknown how much strength the Dark Lord had regained, he did not dare to place his hopes on Sirius and his ability to withstand the resurrection. Voldemort.

Sirius said with some confusion: "But didn't you say that if you don't know which room the people in this room are in, people from outside can't get in?"

"So, we can only try one by one." Andre also sighed. If the news about Mundungus had reached Dumbledore last night, maybe they wouldn't have to rush to catch him. Catching Gemma Farley.

Of course, maybe the principal did receive the parchment last night. He might have thought that he was in the castle and had nothing to fear even if Voldemort came in person.

But I'm afraid he couldn't have guessed that Lucius Malfoy would be kicked out of Hogwarts with a dismissal order this morning.

Soon, Hermione, Professor McGonagall and Snape arrived on the eighth floor.

"Is this the secret room you were talking about?" Snape said, looking at the wall suspiciously.

Andre just nodded and did not reply. He was still thinking in his mind about which room in the Room of Requirement Gemma Farley would hide the disappearing cabinet.

But Snape couldn't help it anymore. He took out his wand and said to the wall: "Appear quickly!"

However, this spell obviously did not have enough effect on the Room of Requirement, and the stone wall did not change in any way.

"Oh, some people always think that their magic is very powerful, but in fact they are just too arrogant and ignorant." Sirius said with a mocking look on his face.

This made Snape's face look very ugly. Fortunately, Professor McGonagall immediately shouted to stop Sirius, otherwise the two of them would have had another big quarrel regardless of the occasion.

"Can we just wait here for the people inside to come out on their own?" Professor McGonagall asked, frowning.

"I'm thinking of a way." Andre replied, and then walked back and forth in front of the wall three times, but unfortunately the door to the Room of Requirement still did not appear.

What he had just been thinking about was the place where things were hidden, but the reaction of the walls showed that Gemma Farley was not entering the huge room filled with collections from past students.

Next, everyone tried. They tried the room where the disappearing cabinet was placed, the room leading to the outside world, etc. Unfortunately, these attempts turned out to be wrong.

"Maybe we can try to repair the room of the disappearing cabinet." At this time, Hermione suddenly made a suggestion, which they had not thought of before.

Including Andre, everyone's eyes lit up. The little witch's guess was indeed very likely to be correct.

Because the disappearing cabinet previously placed in the corridor on the second floor was damaged and could not be used without repair. The reason why Gemma Farley dragged the cabinet to the Room of Requirement on the eighth floor was not only for concealment but also for concealment. Fixing it.

Andre immediately thought to himself that he wanted a room to repair the disappearing cabinet. After he walked in front of the wall three times, a door suddenly appeared.

There was a hint of surprise on everyone's faces, Hermione's deduction was correct.

Without waiting for Professor McGonagall to make arrangements later, Andre rushed in impatiently. In the current situation, every minute of delay would increase the risk of Voldemort's arrival.

After passing through the door, he saw a small room, about the same size as Gryffindor's boys' dormitory. In the center of the room, there was a large iron cabinet, which was the disappearing cabinet he had been looking for for a long time.

The surrounding area is filled with all kinds of tools and parts, making it look like a Muggle workshop.

The only thing that completely surprised him was that he saw not only Gemma Farley, but also another girl.

The other party also noticed Andre at this moment, and a surprised expression appeared on her face. She was obviously startled by the unexpected visitor who suddenly broke in here.

"Woooooo!" The one who whined was Gemma Farley, but unlike what he originally imagined, this Slytherin female prefect had her hands and feet tied with ropes and her mouth was gagged. He quickly made a ball, and now he was sitting helplessly in the corner of the room.

When she saw Andre, her blue eyes immediately reflected a light called hope.

The development of things seems to have overturned Andre's speculation again. No matter how you look at the current situation, Gemma Farley does not look like the real murderer.

Of course, they had guessed how to enter the Room of Requirement, so regardless of whether Gemma Farley was innocent or not, at least the purpose of preventing Voldemort from entering the castle had been achieved.

"I didn't expect that you would actually know about the existence of this room. It seems that I neglected this point." The girl standing next to the disappearing cabinet in the room finally spoke, "But fortunately it was not professors who came in. Otherwise I would really have a headache.”

"You will see them soon." Andre said coldly. His mind was still a little messy, but this did not prevent him from treating the girl in front of him as his enemy. Even if he suspected the wrong person at first, he could It doesn't matter now. Anyway, whether it is the real murderer or the wrong suspect, it has appeared in front of him now.

Moreover, the best news is that the other party has not had time to use the disappearing cabinet to transport Voldemort or Death Eaters from the outside world. Dealing with a senior student, Andre has no psychological burden at all. The only thing that can make him afraid , only the resurrected Voldemort.

"Haha, I'm afraid they can't get in now," but the girl said again: "It seems that your understanding of this secret room is not thorough enough. It was my oversight before, and I was not prepared for someone else in the castle to know about it. existed, but now, I have closed that loophole.”

These words made Andre vaguely recall something. He turned his head and glanced at the closed door behind him. It had been about a minute since he entered the door. It stands to reason that Professor McGonagall and Sirius were indeed It's time to follow up.

"As long as I think about it and give me a room that no one else will be allowed to enter, then this room will meet my requirements." The girl said with a proud smile.

Andre finally remembered this. This room can indeed change according to the people in the room. In the original book, Neville used this rule to stop the Carlo brothers and sisters, and at this moment, he even gave the Room of Requirement in his heart. The order given will not be effective because it conflicts with the order given by the girl first.

"Miss Milna, is that the right name?" Although several professors were blocked outside again, Andre was not too panicked. She was just a senior girl, so he was not afraid of it.

"You have a good memory, Mr. Ivanov." The other girl in the room was the Milna who was questioned by Snape in the Slytherin common room before.

"Haha, I just met you. Of course I won't forget it so quickly, but I still don't understand why it was you?" Andre laughed at himself.

"Why can't it be me? Oh, I understand. You must have discovered my boss, Mr. Larry Farley, right? That's why you are searching everywhere for traces of Gemma." The corner of Milna's mouth He raised his head slightly and glanced at Gemma Farley in the corner as he spoke.

Andre nodded. At this point, there was nothing to hide. The reason why he did not immediately destroy the disappearing cabinet was because Milna had not made any move at the moment. On the other hand, he also wanted to He took the opportunity to get some words out of her mouth. After all, he still had many questions that needed to be answered by the girl in front of him.

"Actually, I didn't expect that you would find out something was wrong so soon. If you hadn't got the wrong person, I might have been arrested by you in the lounge." Milna continued: "Originally, I was planning to do it again tonight. Yes, at that time we can easily take you and Mr. Harry Potter away from the castle and bring them to the great master without attracting the attention of the professors in the school."

Andre narrowed his eyes. The girl's words revealed a very important message, that is, Voldemort did not seem to intend to enter Hogwarts himself.

This undoubtedly made him secretly relieved. Whether it was because Voldemort had not fully recovered yet and did not want to take risks, or for some other reason, this was good news. Without the Dark Lord, even if someone really disappeared through it, After entering the castle, Andre was confident that he could easily deal with other Death Eaters.

"Fortunately, you actually think that Gemma is the one who caused the accident in the school. In fact, she was resting in the dormitory at that time, but she saw you and so many professors breaking into Slytherin's rest. room, I guessed that something was wrong, and when Professor Snape asked me where Gemma was, I immediately thought of a solution."

Milna seemed to be very satisfied with her previous performance. She did not rush to use the disappearing cabinet. Instead, she began to tell Andre about her sharp wit.

Of course, this was also what Andre wanted, so he did not interrupt the girl's monologue, but chose to listen quietly.

"Gemma is a woman who is usually very arrogant. Even in our Slytherin, she doesn't have many friends. This is why when I lied and told Professor Snape that she was out, no one stood up, because everyone I don’t pay much attention to her whereabouts.”

"So after we left the lounge, you came here immediately with Miss Gemma Farley?" Andre already knew why they only saw Gemma Farley's name on the Marauder's Map. She should have It was Myrna who took action immediately after they left the lounge. She took Miss Farley to the eighth floor and entered the room first. Because the Room of Requirement can block the induction of the Marauder's Map, they Only one person's name was found at the time.

Milna tilted her head and said with a chuckle: "Yes, I realize that you have probably guessed the reason why old man Dumbledore was kicked out. This is not good news for me. Of course I have to hurry up. It’s time to take action, and if I leave Gemma in the dormitory, if she comes out later and you discover her, then I will be exposed.”

"We felt something was wrong at the time. If according to what you said at that time, Miss Farley left the common room not long ago, then we should have met her in the corridor leading to the underground. Unfortunately, your performance was too It was so wonderful that no one suspected that what you told was a lie." Andre sighed. To be honest, if it wasn't an emergency, they would have discovered it if they thought more about it when they were in the Slytherin common room. There is a flaw in Milna's words.

"But there is no regret medicine for sale in this world, right? Even if we are wizards." Milna said sarcastically.

If Hermione now has the time turner she applied for next year, then Myrna will be surprised to find that in the wizarding world, there are actually regret medicines for sale. Unfortunately, this kind of medicine is strictly controlled by the Ministry of Magic. Andre also couldn't get hold of the alchemy tool.

"However, I was also negligent. I must have not expected that you would actually know about the existence of the Room of Requirement."

"In fact, I have known about this place for a long time, and I have seen you twice at the door of this secret room." Andre said: "The first time was on the first night of school, but because of the darkness, , I didn’t find out which college you are a student from, and this time because we learned about the existence of Larry Farley, I immediately placed the object of suspicion on Miss Farley. You know, your figure ..."

Milna clapped her hands and said, "Oh, I think so. Ever since I first entered the academy, people have been saying that you can't tell Gemma and I apart from the hair color alone."

"Can I ask about your relationship with that Larry Farley?"

"There's nothing to say. We just have a simple superior-subordinate relationship." Milna shook her head.

"But as far as I know, the youngest Death Eater should also be an adult. After all, the era when the Dark Lord ruled the magical world has been more than ten years ago. You should still be a child at that time."

"Of course, I sometimes feel that this is all my parents' fault. They gave me birth too late and missed the greatest era." A trace of annoyance appeared on Milna's face, but it soon turned into With a smile on his face, "But now I also sincerely thank them, because it is my age that gives me the opportunity to serve my great master and help him complete his mission of revenge."

A standard Bellatrix-style Death Eater, Andrei made an evaluation of Milna in his heart, although he still didn't know why the girl became a Death Eater, and She has feelings of admiration and even belief in murderous demons like Voldemort, but obviously, trying to persuade her to abandon the darkness and turn to the light is probably a futile task.

"Can you tell me about Flint and Jerome? I have always been curious. These two people should not be related to your mission, but why did you take action against them." This is An Andre had his last question. After figuring out these two things, he was ready to take action.
