HP: Hogwarts, but pro-generation

"Are you sure we can do this?" Even though the voice was lowered, it was still clear that it was a girl's voice that rang out in the empty corridor.

"Of course." A lively male voice replied, "Oh, who stepped on my foot?"

"Sorry James. Hey! Who bumped into my stomach?"

"It was me, Sirius. But I have to say someone hit me in the face."

"So it was you I hit, Remus!"

Small problems kept happening to several people, but no one appeared in the corridor.

After hearing such a terrible conversation, Xia couldn't help but worry whether their first night patrol would be successful.

She was right to worry, because—

"It's Mrs. Norris, keep your voice down." She lowered her voice again to remind the noisy people.

The boys who had been playing stopped. They didn't dare to say another word and held their breath waiting for the cat to pass by them.

The five people under the invisibility cloak looked at Mrs. Norris who was wandering in front of them, and nervously pinched their clothes.

"You're here, my Mrs. Norris. Let's go. We still have to look for those children who are running around and haven't slept yet." Filch came around the corner, picked up Mrs. Norris from the ground and left. Only when his figure disappeared around the corner at the end of the corridor did the few people finally relax.

James grabbed the invisibility cloak and gasped for breath. The others also looked like they were suffocating.

"Oh my God, you should know that I was scared to death by Mrs. Norris." James, who had finally recovered, said with lingering fear.

Sirius recalled how scared he was when he saw Mrs. Norris. "Yes, I think we can all feel that it's always watching us."

"Stop talking, let's get out of here first. Fortunately, Filch didn't notice Mrs. Norris's abnormality, otherwise we would all be doomed."

"Let's leave before Filch reacts. It will be troublesome if he comes back." Ender agreed with Xia. He didn't think staying in one place was a wise choice.

James, who had originally planned to take a good look around this floor, also began to think about what they said, and finally everyone agreed that it would be better to leave.

Think about the Gryffindor gem, at least it is innocent. Remus' words were the real killer move to wake everyone up.

"So where is this place?" Xia, who didn't have a very good sense of direction, jumped up and down with a few people for a while and spoke in a daze.

You really can't blame her; the constantly changing staircases and dimly lit castle greatly reduced her already confused state of mind.

"I think this is the Hufflepuff common room." Sirius looked around and spoke with certainty. Then he saw Xia's gaze and couldn't help laughing. "Why are you so surprised? I just have a good sense of direction. And that's the wooden barrel used to knock on the door of the Hufflepuff common room."

"No, you have more than just a good sense of direction." Xia said faintly, "You can even see what's around you in such a dim environment!"

"Can't you see?" Sirius was a little surprised. He really didn't expect Xia Ya couldn't see these. He thought it was quite bright, of course it couldn't be compared with daytime.

"Oh, Xia is a little night blind." James slapped his head and remembered something.

"Because she hates carrots," Ender added.

"I said, it has nothing to do with carrots! And I don't hate it, I just don't like it." Xia wanted to prove herself, but she could not stand up to the two people in front of her alone.

"You'd better follow us, Xia." Sirius said with some concern after hearing their conversation, "There are quite a lot of stairs here, and they are always changing."

"Don't worry, I've been holding Remus' sleeve." Xia pointed at the sleeve of Remus that was a little deformed by her pulling, and said proudly.

"?" Ander's confusion was written all over his face. "When did you two get together?"

"While you were running forward excitedly."

Xia folded her arms and snorted. She didn't expect the boys to behave like gentlemen during their night outing. Although she also wanted to run without any scruples like them, she was really afraid that she wouldn't be able to see the stairs or steps clearly. It would be too embarrassing to fall down. Besides, she was very afraid of pain!

"Only Remus! He almost tripped when he saw me! He almost fell down the stairs!" Xia was a little scared when this was mentioned. She didn't want to say it at first, but since she was asked, she had to say it.

"Haha." James and the others laughed awkwardly, "I thought you guys were following me."

When people are embarrassed, they will make countless small movements in a minute, like now - James kept rubbing his hair and then adjusting his glasses; Ender looked up at the ceiling and then looked down at the floor: Look, this floor is too dull; Sirius touched the tip of his nose, lowered his head and didn't look into Remus and Thea's eyes.

"You can tell me then, look at Remus' clothes! And I'm your brother."

"?" Xia, who was outwitted, widened her blue eyes. "What are you talking about? Andrick?"

Ander, who just didn't want his sister to be too close to other boys, obviously got it wrong. He really shouldn't have said that.

Everyone present didn't know what Ender was thinking, but they all agreed that this was a terrible move.

Remus, who was at the center of the storm, felt a little overwhelmed. He looked at this and that and said hesitantly, "I heard from my Hufflepuff classmates that the kitchen of Hogwarts is here. Do you want to take a look?"

"Yes!" The brother and sister, whose attention was immediately drawn, put aside their current "hatred" and showed some tacit understanding between twins.

"I remember Horner saying that if you tickle the pear on the fruit painting, it will smile and turn into a doorknob."

Xia thought of what a kind Hufflepuff senior she met said when she complained to Lily regretfully about missing the pudding jelly for dinner.

"Wait, who is Horner?" Ender felt dizzy. When did Merlin's sister know so many boys?

Ignoring Ander's words, Xia walked in this direction, and then her arm was pulled. She looked over and found that it was Sirius. She tilted her head in confusion and heard him say, "Over here."

Xia's face immediately turned red, "Well, I just wanted to admire the painting."

She made an awkward excuse and then stiffly left Sirius' sight. James had already found the painting and entered the kitchen smoothly. Xia followed their footsteps and hurriedly left this place where people had to crawl into the cracks in the ground first.

She didn't see Sirius behind her, looking at the bare wall, covering his face with his hands and shrugging his shoulders, laughing.

Even if she saw her, she might not know what the other person was laughing at, might not see that the other person was laughing at all, and might even ask the other person why he didn't catch up.

Sirius' smile deepened when he thought of this. It was really, so cute. He thought he would never forget the way the girl tilted her head and looked at him in confusion under the flickering candlelight.
