HP: Hogwarts, but pro-generation

It was already dark when Xia finished the homework assigned to her these days. She thought it would be impolite to disturb Professor Dumbledore now, in case the professor was busy.

She should go to the restricted books section to check the information first. She heard that there was everything there.

Hehe, Xia rubbed her hands excitedly, she had been looking forward to that place for a long time!

The first step to the restricted section is to get James's invisibility cloak. James and Sirius, two big night walkers, are in detention and don't need the invisibility cloak. As for Ender, why is he hanging out at night when he hasn't finished his homework? Kick him out.

The second step is to avoid the patrolling teachers and find the location of the library.

The third is to successfully reach the restricted area of ​​the library and look for suspicious books to browse through.

The fourth step is to sneak back to the dormitory and end such a perfect night.

Plan to get it!

What? A ban on borrowing books? What is that? Xia said that since she didn't remember it, she didn't need it.

What? Night blindness and directionally challenged? She can still use the fluorescent flashlight, so it's not a big problem. If you are directionally challenged, you can always find your way by walking, right?

What? Can an invisibility cloak block the light emitted by fluorescent flashes? Can the light under the invisibility cloak illuminate normally?

This is a good question. Xia couldn't answer it for the moment, but she would know if she tried. Humph, this is nothing. No one can stop a Gryffindor who wants to go on an adventure at night!

Still there.

Xia followed Dumbledore dejectedly. She wanted to know how she got to the headmaster's office. Wasn't there a gargoyle? Wasn't there a password? How did she get in so easily?

Oh, Professor Dumbledore took care of her personally, so it's okay.

How...how could this happen? Xia followed Professor Dumbledore with a dead heart.

Should I say she is worthy of it, she met Professor Dumbledore who came back from outside, and was kindly reminded: "Oh, it's late, do you want to have a cup of tea?"

Merlin, no matter how kind, friendly, and approachable Dumbledore is, this is not a reason for a student who walks at night not to be afraid of him!

Knowing that she had been discovered, Xia silently took off her invisibility cloak and said, "I'm sorry, Professor. I shouldn't have come out at this time."

Dumbledore was different from the other professors. He did not show any anger or even surprise, as if everything was within his expectations.

He still looked at Xia with a smile, "Great invisibility cloak." He praised.

Xia smiled awkwardly, and wanted to quickly skip this topic. Although Dumbledore would not rob students of their belongings, she didn't want to be remembered now. After all, they still had seven years to stay here, and they couldn't do without the invisibility cloak.

Anyway, Dumbledore knew that they would sneak out, so as long as they didn't take it away, it would be fine.

"Haha, Professor, I just wanted to find you." Xia gave Dumbledore her signature smile.

"Oh?" The always shrewd principal was now curious about what could have caused a little wizard to visit him so late at night.

The two of them walked up the stairs to the office.

Sitting on the small sofa opposite Dumbledore, Xia became nervous. How should she explain such a thing?

"Hmm..." Xia frowned, as if she was looking for a suitable beginning.

"Don't be nervous, Miss Hopps." Dumbledore used his wand to direct the teapot to pour a cup of tea for Xia. He reached out and pushed the dessert plate in front of him. "Would you like some? The elves at Hogwarts are very good at cooking."

He blinked his eyes behind his half-moon glasses, and Xia was amused by him. "But, if my tooth hurts, Madam Pomfrey will be angry, right?"

"Oh, it's a one-time thing I think Poppy will forgive."

After saying that, both of them laughed.

"Professor, this is what happened." Xia said after organizing her thoughts: "A few nights ago, I planned to go to the kitchen to eat some cakes. It was normal for me to not be able to find the kitchen because I am night blind and have poor directions, but I found that on the fourth floor, there was a painting of Labidi and his banana tree stump. Even without a candle, I could still see it clearly, and it felt like someone was leading me there along the way."

Dumbledore did not question the fact that there were no candles on the fourth floor. Xia was relieved and continued, "I had another terrible dream when I went back home that night."

She didn't know whether Dumbledore was interested in the content of the dream. After all, no one was willing to listen to someone else telling a nonsensical dream unconditionally.

Seeing that Dumbledore showed no impatience and looked at her with encouragement, Xia became bolder: "I felt like I was going to die - I'm sorry, professor, I know it's strange but it's true - and I heard the voice of 'My Lord'. I don't know if it has anything to do with Voldemort, but I haven't seen him."

It's not that Xia didn't tell Lily about her dream, it's just that she only remembered that she felt like she was going to die. She couldn't just say such things casually in case she scared Lily. Apart from this, she couldn't remember anything else, so it was understandable that she forgot it. Xia quietly made up for herself.

Dumbledore didn't say anything. Xia just looked at Dumbledore. Then she felt that staring at him wasn't a good idea so she looked around.

What a coincidence that it matched the previous portrait of Principal Black. Hmm... not as good-looking as Sirius. No wonder everyone doesn't like him, Xia commented truthfully.

In fact, Principal Black is not ugly, he is just a little inferior to the current generation of Black. Phineas Black, who was inexplicably despised, sneezed.

Strange, can portraits sneeze?

Xia tilted her head and looked at the legendary unpopular principal, feeling a little curious.

"Okay, Miss Hopps, I think I know something, but it will take time to verify."

After a long pause, Dumbledore spoke slowly, "It's late now, you should go to bed too, right?"

Xia nodded obediently. Her goal had been achieved. Although she felt a little regretful that she didn't make it to the restricted books area, there was still a long way to go and she would be able to sneak in one day.
