Albert left the owl loft and saw a black shadow floating not far away.

He quickly cast the Disappearance Charm on himself and held his breath to prevent the other party from discovering him.

"I solemnly swear that I have done nothing good."

The Marauder's Map was opened, and a small black dot was moving towards the Forbidden Forest. Below it was a line of small curly characters - Quilinas Quirrell!

If you go to the Forbidden Forest at this time, you must be hunting unicorns and sucking blood to keep his master Voldemort alive!

Albert couldn't stand this kind of behavior, so...

He stopped looking.

Returning to the castle, a plan came to mind: since Quirrell went to the Forbidden Forest, why not visit his office?

Just do what you say, walk into the castle, and arrive at the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor's office.

"Araho Cave is open!"

There was no response. It seemed that an anti-opening spell had been cast on the door. Quirrell was really cautious.

Then...

"Smashed to pieces!"

The wooden door cracked, a "crackling" sound was heard, sawdust fell to the ground, stirring up a burst of dust.

A strong smell of garlic mixed with an unknown stench hit your nose, followed by a black light.

It's a curse!

"Except your weapons!"

A red light shot out from the top of Albert's wand and collided with the oncoming black light. The two canceled each other out and disappeared in the air.

Albert breathed a sigh of relief, but he was also vigilant. He did not expect such a layout in Quirrell's office. If he was not careful, he would die here.

The curse just now was supposed to be a protective measure, but now it was triggered by Albert. Regardless of whether Quirrell was aware of it or not, he had to fight it quickly.

After entering the room and taking a quick look, to Albert's surprise, the room was very tidy. Except for a slight smell, it didn't look like a dark wizard's room at all.

It's not like a single male room.

The room was empty, with only a desk and a sofa. The fire in the fireplace was out, making the office look deserted.

Albert found a black book on his desk. The material was very strange, like the fur of some kind of animal. The title was "Introduction to Contracts".

Out of curiosity, Albert wanted to open it and take a look, but the Marauder's Map showed that Quirrell's black dot was constantly approaching the castle, and time did not allow it.

No matter how arrogant he is, he will never think that he can have a [-]-[-] fight with a professor.

So he chose to use "Duplicate" and got an identical copy.

After checking again to confirm that there was no wool that could be harvested, Albert left Quirrell's office. Before leaving, he even "repaired" the broken wooden door.

Although Quirrell would definitely know that someone had broken into his office, there was still work to be done on the surface.

Look, your wooden door is not broken, how do you know someone has entered your office?

Is there something missing?

Or... what kind of protective magic did you put in place?

But it is obvious that Quirrell's protection method is black magic and cannot be made public.After repairing the wooden door, Quirrell could only suffer the loss of being dumb.

After doing all this, Albert left safely, taking only a copy of the book with him.

Quirrell wouldn't be angry if there weren't chicken feathers all over the floor.

…………

The next morning, it was Ron's exclamation that woke Albert up.

"Harry, Albert, look, it's snowing outside!" Ron put on a sweater knitted by his mother for him. It had an "r" letter on it, which was the beginning of his name.

He said to Albert and Harry, who were still confused: "Merry Christmas!"

"Merry Christmas!" Albert responded as he found several small packages at the foot of his bed.

At the top were two letters, one from Serwell, the director of the orphanage who was angry at him for not returning for the holidays, and added another letter after mentally expressing her anger.

It was sent by Wiles, a professor of mathematics at Princeton University across the ocean, expressing his gratitude to Albert and inviting him to the United States as a guest, saying that he had a bonus to share.

Albert put away the envelope and thought to himself that Wiles was quite sensible. Given the importance of Fermat's Last Theorem, if he won all the awards, the bonus would not be small.

He continued to look at the gifts at the back, and Hermione gave him a scarf. Looking at the thick threads, you could tell that it was knitted by Hermione herself, and it was very warm after wearing it.

But when he thought of the gift he gave Hermione, the corners of his mouth twitched a few times, hoping that everything would be fine after the Christmas holiday.

Professor McGonagall gave him a notebook, which read on the title page: This is my experience of transfiguration when I was in school. I hope it will be helpful to you.

Professor Flitwick gave him a wristband with a slot for a wand. The wand is placed inside and can appear in his hand at any time when he wants to use it.

Even if you are hit by Expelliarmus, if you input magic power into the wrist guard, the wand can fly back immediately, which is very practical.

"Albert, come and see, Harry has received a gift!" Ron exclaimed.

Harry was holding a liquid-like, silver-gray substance in his hand that slid to the floor, gathering into a shiny pile.

"I've heard of this thing." Ron said in a low voice, throwing aside the box of Bibi's multi-flavor beans Hermione gave him. "If I think correctly - this thing is very rare and very valuable. "

"What is it?" Harry asked.

Albert came closer to take a closer look and said, "Obviously, this is an invisibility cloak."

He touched the invisibility cloak. It was as smooth as water. It looked no different from an ordinary invisibility cloak, but why was it the Deathly Hallows?

But what is certain is that the effect of this invisibility cloak lasts for thousands of years. Unlike other magic cloaks, which are expensive to make and lose their effect after a few years of use,

Harry put the Invisibility Cloak on his body, leaving a head outside. It looked like Harry's head had been chopped off, and then cast a levitation spell.

"Harry, you can scare a lot of people when you go out like this." Albert teased.

Indeed, with one head exposed, it is like the head-lowering technique in Southeast Asia, but the effect of the invisibility cloak is far greater than the head-lowering technique.

A note fell out of the invisibility cloak, with a thin, circle-like font on it:

Your father left this thing to me before he died.

It should be returned to you now.

Use it well.

Sincerely wish you a Merry Christmas.

Harry was still thinking about his parents when Fred and George broke into the dormitory. They shouted:

"Merry Christmas!"

They also wore sweaters similar to Ron's, with "f" and "g" on them respectively.

Albert gave them the Marauder's Map, and the Weasley brothers were excitedly talking about their glorious deeds of hitting Professor Quirrell on the back of the head with a snowball yesterday.

Hearing this, Albert's eyes lit up and he was no longer sleepy.
