Harry Potter: The Party of the Orient at Hogwarts

Chapter 43 The Secret Room in the Corridor on the Fourth Floor

Quirrell is still teaching the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. Since Jiang Li talked with Dumbledore that night, he pretended that nothing happened and went to the Defense Against the Dark Arts class as usual, but every time Professor Quirrell always Far away from her seat, he looked at her with fear in his eyes.

She heard that Voldemort had proposed to Dumbledore after graduation that he wanted to be the teacher of Hogwarts' Defense Against the Dark Arts class, but he was rejected. Now that he grows on the back of Quirrell's head, it is considered a dream come true.

Anyway, it's you, the great White Wizard Albus Dumbledore, who teach Defense Against the Dark Arts with a Death Eater with a Dark Lord on his head!

"Listen to me, Li." Harry found Jiang Li who was reviewing Potions class in the library, "I know why Snape wanted to steal the Philosopher's Stone, he was not doing it for himself, he was doing it for Voldemort, we have to stop it he."

"Harry, I'm sure it's definitely not Professor Snape, he just has a bit of a bad mouth, and he's not even as ruthless as Professor McGonagall in deducting points." Hearing that he was still suspicious of Professor Snape, Jiang Li felt a headache, "You Why not try to suspect someone, like Professor Quirrell, who tried to throw you to death with your broom the last time he played Quidditch."

Harry shook his head stubbornly: "I don't think Professor Quirrell is such a timid person who would dare to steal the Philosopher's Stone. I guess he would pee his pants in fright when he saw Lu Wei."

Jiang Li shook his head helplessly, the answers were stuffed in front of his eyes, and he was still so stubborn to choose the wrong answer.

Harry suddenly thought of something, and said to her excitedly: "Hagrid slipped his tongue, Snape knows how to get past Lu Wei, and he will definitely steal the Philosopher's Stone."

"Why don't you try to tell Dumbledore?" Jiang Li propped his head on one hand, looked away from the potions book and looked at Harry.

"The Ministry of Magic has something to do. He went to London. We found Professor McGonagall and told her that Snape was going to steal the Philosopher's Stone. She thought we were playing a prank!" Harry said more and more excitedly, and his voice became higher.

The students who were reviewing in the library cast puzzled eyes at him, and seeing the famous Harry Potter, they started discussing with each other in low voices.

Harry didn't like the probing eyes of others looking at him, so he lowered his voice and said to Jiang Li: "Dumbledore is not at school, the Philosopher's Stone is very dangerous now, I want to find it before Snape!"

Jiang Li sighed: "When are you going to go to the secret room on the fourth floor?"

"Hermione and Ron are waiting for us in the castle right now!" Harry answered her immediately.

Good guy, everything is ready, Ganqing just came to lure her into the group, she was careless.

"Okay, then let's go, I hope we don't get caught by Filch." Jiang Li reluctantly put away the potion book, it seems that today's review plan is going to be ruined again.

After meeting Ron and Hermione, they came to the secret room guarded by Lu Wei, and Hermione opened the door lock with a spell.

Jiang Li thought of what Dumbledore had said to her, and decided not to go in with them, and said to Harry, "I'm here to watch the door for you, if anyone comes, I can stop him!"

Harry also agreed with her thoughts, nodded and said: "If Snape comes, run if you can't hold him back, you can't beat him."

"Don't worry!" Jiang Li patted Harry on the shoulder, then watched the Gryffindor trio enter the secret room.

After Harry and the others went in, she took out her Potions book and leaned against the wall to review it. There were only a few days left before the exam.

"What are you doing here? Didn't Dumbledore tell you that students are not allowed to approach the corridor on the right hand side of the fourth floor?" Hearing the drawn out tone, Jiang Li knew it was Professor Snape.

"Sorry, professor, I'm studying for the final exam of Potions, I fall asleep too easily in the dormitory, and I can't help but chat with others when I go to the library or classroom." Jiang Li showed herself to Snape Potions book in hand.

Professor Snape rubbed his chin with his hands, and looked at her carefully, as if he wanted to find some flaws in her expression.

Jiang Li guessed that Professor Snape should have been instructed by Dumbledore to protect the Sorcerer's Stone and Harry, after all, Quirrell and Voldemort had already started to act.

Professor Snape obviously had no intention of leaving, he folded his flowing robe tightly and leaned against the wall, looking at the book in Jiang Li's hand, he said to her: "If you have any questions, you can ask me now?"

Jiang Li was surprised that Professor Snape didn't chase him away. Dumbledore must have said something to him, so he quickly asked him some knowledge about potions that he didn't understand.

"Oh, I promised to answer your questions. I didn't ask you to ask such a strange question, Miss Jiang Li." Professor Snape was almost driven crazy by Jiang Li's question. You can't take such weird questions as full marks.

Jiang Li found that it was not easy for Snape to concentrate on listening to the movement inside the secret room door when he was helpless to answer his own question.

"Professor, I still have a question." Jiang Li held the book and looked up into Snape's eyes.

"Ask, I hope your next question will be more normal." Snape felt that he was going to be exhausted, and if something unexpected happened, he felt that he didn't even have the energy to deal with it.

"You obviously care so much about Harry, why are you being so fierce to him?" Jiang Li waited expectantly for Snape's answer.

"Will this be tested in the Potions final exam?" Snape frowned and looked at her with distaste. "I don't like Potter."

Didn't Lily change her surname to Potter later, Jiang Li raised her eyebrows, but still didn't say that.

Jiang Li and Snape have been outside the door for almost three hours, during which Jiang Li asked some strange questions from time to time, Snape endured a headache to explain to her, the two of them are trying their best to act as good students who study hard And a good teacher with patient guidance.

A strange roar came from the secret room, and Jiang Li couldn't react for a moment.

When she realized it, Professor Snape was no longer in front of her, and the door of the secret room was wide open.

She quickly followed and ran in, the mechanism of the secret room had been cracked, and she was not hindered by anything.

She walked through several rooms, and finally saw Ron and Hermione in a room that looked like a large wizard's chess set. Ron passed out on the ground, and Hermione stood by his side.

"Oh, honey, here you are, I just saw Snape go in." Hermione said to her worriedly.

Jiang Li put his hands on her shoulders and comforted her: "Don't worry, Dumbledore told me to go to Professor Snape if I was in danger, he is reliable."

Hermione nodded and said to her: "Harry, Harry is still inside, I don't know what will happen to him? Ron chose to sacrifice himself in the wizard chess mechanism in order to let Harry in."

Jiang Li looked at the fainted Ron, admiring this boy who seemed a bit unreliable at ordinary times, but he was exceptionally reliable at critical moments, even willing to sacrifice himself for his friends.

"I'll go inside to see Harry and Professor Snape, and I'll come out to find you in a while."

Jiang Li continued to walk into the innermost room, and saw the Mirror of Erised placed in the center of the room, Snape was picking up the fainted Harry, but there was nothing else.

"Professor, there is nothing strange about it, how did Harry faint?" Jiang Li looked curiously at Harry who was being held by Snape.

"Dizzy by himself." Snape carried Harry out of the room.

Jiang Li looked around the room and found nothing possible, so he followed Snape and left.
