[HP] Born to be a pair

Crabbe and Goyle were stuck in the corridor on the eighth floor, chatting and laughing.

They faced the tapestry where the troll beat Barnabas silly with a stick, and laughed while pointing at the drool-worthy troll.

"It's strange," Renee whispered, "that they should even mock their distant relatives."

Neville couldn't help laughing, and immediately attracted those two stupid guys.

"Well, Gregory," said Crabbe gruffly, "go see what's going on in there."

"Why me?" Gore said dissatisfiedly, "Why not you? Go, the two of us go together."

Crabbe said nothing, as if considering the proposal.

Renee, on the other hand, hoped that they would come together, so that she could drag Neville around.

She had a vague premonition in her mind that Crabbe and Goyle would be willing to stay outside, and that the person in the Room of Requirement would probably be Draco Malfoy.

They also rushed to the eighth floor on the day of the war, and they knew that Harry was also on the eighth floor at the time-could they have known what would be in the Room of Requirement?

Could it be that they were also looking for Rowena Ravenclaw's diadem?

"No!" Crabbe refused him loudly, "We have to keep at least one person here, otherwise what will Draco do?"

Goyle reluctantly agreed, muttering something in his mouth, and walked towards the stairs with two thick and strong legs.

Renee didn't know when Crabbe got his wits, maybe he was only a third troll in his blood.

But right now, Goyle, who had half the blood of a troll, was getting closer and closer. Neville had already pulled her behind him, as if he wanted to hit Goyle head-on.

No, they can't expose it until they figure it out.

The moment Goyle turned the corner, she quickly pulled out the wand that had slipped from her cuff, and cast the Disillusionment Charm against Neville's back.

At the same time, he squatted down immediately, and threw the bait bomb/bomb in his sweaty palm towards Crabbe.

As soon as the spherical rubber horn hit the ground, it propped up its two slender legs, and ran around the unknown Crabbe.

"Gregory, what did you throw over here?"

Goyle lost half of his body into the shadow of the stairwell, but Crabbe's question caught his attention. He turned his head sharply and asked in a silly tone, "What?"

Renee seized the time to cast a Disillusionment Charm for herself, and the shimmering spell spread from her chest, finally making her, like Neville, merge with the wall behind her like a chameleon.

In the next second, the decoy bomb/bomb made a loud noise, and a large amount of pungent smoke gushed out of it, drowning the big and round Crabbe immediately.

"What, what is this?!" Renee heard him wailing in horror, coughing and running.

And Goyle stood there dumbfounded, as if he hadn't realized what happened, Neville had already dragged her by the hand and rushed towards the Room of Requirement.

They couldn't see each other, but their palms were warm and sticky, and they quickly walked around Crabbe, who was waving his arms like a gorilla, and came to the opposite side of the tapestry.

Neville lightly tapped her palm with his index finger, then knocked on the wall closest to the tapestry amidst Crabbe's exclamation, signaling him to wait here.

Renee grabbed his hand, clasped his ten fingers affectionately for a second, and then let go, walking in the thick black smoke while muttering "the room with the crown hidden" in her heart .

The fact that the Room of Requirement wasn't responding meant two things: there must be someone in the room now, and the room Renee wanted wasn't quite the same room he wanted—or rather, wasn't accurate?

Crabbe was already yelling and running away, and Goyle chased him away from the dark cloud.

While Renee was still thinking, the blank wall in front of her eyes suddenly reacted, a small rusty black iron door gradually spread out from the center of the wall—the people inside were about to come out!

She quickly drew out her wand again, and gently drew circles in the air with the tip of the wand. A small hurricane appeared out of thin air, and immediately blew away the black smoke in the corridor.

With sharp eyesight, Neville quickly grabbed the bait bomb/bomb that was still running on the ground, and cast a Splitting Curse on the little thing that was still spraying smoke in his hand, and stuffed the remaining fragments into his robe pocket.

"Crabbe? Goyle?" The figure of Draco Malfoy appeared in the door, "Where is the person?"

With the help of his stepping out, Renee glanced at the situation inside, and was stunned by the endless piles of miscellaneous items in the room.

The hallway seemed empty, but Malfoy was sure he heard Crabbe's scream just now, which made him look around warily, trying to find some clues.

Out of the corner of her eye, Renee caught a glimpse of his wand tightly clenched behind his back, and she couldn't help feeling suspicious. She stepped back a few steps lightly, until she hid behind a protruding stone pillar.

"Human form!" Malfoy raised his wand and said, right on the ground where Renee exited.

He seemed a little relieved when he was nowhere to be seen, while Crabbe and Goyle returned dejectedly to the gate.

"Where have you been?" Malfoy asked ferociously. "When I said I needed you to keep watch, I meant you to stand here forever, and drive them away when anyone comes!"

"There was a sudden black smoke just now," Goyle explained honestly, "It's thick and pungent, we can't bear it anymore!"

"Black smoke?" Malfoy looked around in confusion, then said impatiently,

"I don't see any smoke, don't make excuses for your negligence! If it delays my business... I won't be angry about it, I will have to ask him if he will!"

Renee didn't know who this 'he' was, but Crabbe and Goyle's expression changed instantly, and they obediently admitted their mistake.

"There won't be a next time," Crabbe said with a swollen face, looking extremely humble, "But, Draco...you..."

"I'll say it one last time," Malfoy seemed to know what he wanted to say, and interrupted him impatiently, "What I'm doing is none of your business! You just need to know that I'm doing something for him!"

After finishing speaking, he worriedly confessed a few words to make them keep an eye on him, and then he regained his vigilant and gloomy appearance, opened the cast iron black door and walked in.

Crabbe and Goyle also looked at each other gloomyly, with their backs facing the door that gradually melted into the wall, like two respectable stone statues of gargoyles - just like the one at the door of the professor's office - standing upright.

Renee guessed that they would not be easily seduced anymore, so she groped and approached the tapestry, and grabbed Neville who was clinging to the wall like a lizard, and the two quietly left the corridor with their necks curled up.

"Did you hear that?" Neville was shocked like a storm, he couldn't believe his ears, "Malfoy said he was doing things for 'him', this 'he'—"

"It must be You-Know-Who!" Renee said with a bad face, "Malfoy's father went to prison and messed up You-Know-Who's errand—it was the prophecy ball—so, he must have been sent to help him Do things and make up for their family's mistakes."

"In the Room of Requirement?" said Neville, startled. "But what can he do in there?"

Find what Voldemort and Harry both wanted to find...the eighth-floor Room of Requirement with the same purpose...Ravenclaw's diadem, is it really there?

Renee didn't have much feeling for this crown that had been missing for nearly a few centuries, even though she knew that this thing could greatly improve her wisdom-but when she thought that this thing was what Voldemort wanted, she felt that it was not as good as far away. stay away.

"Do you want to mention this to Harry?" Renee thought for a moment and said, "I want to find out Malfoy's motives as soon as possible, and I want to know what's hidden inside..."

If it wasn't for Professor Dumbledore's frequent outings recently, she would also like to visit his office again and tell him all her findings—to prove that she is trustworthy.

"Of course!" Neville immediately agreed, and then asked with some doubts, "Why didn't we just follow Malfoy in? Maybe we can see what he is doing after we go in."

"Will be found," Renee said, "he's much more vigilant than he used to be. And when he came out, I took a peek inside—lots of clutter, piled up inches high Xiaoshan, how should we follow him in it quietly?"

"If only we could figure out what kind of room he wants," said Neville ruefully, "we could go in and see it while he's away."

"There should be a chance to grow into a room like that... Maybe we can guess right."

The Room of Requirement was not far from the Gryffindor common room, and they said goodbye in front of a portrait of the Fat Lady.

Neville seemed to have something else to say, but looking at the absent-minded Renee, he could only swallow it sullenly.

Renee's heart was almost occupied by the diadem, and what would be the most suitable room for a diadem. She hurriedly kissed Neville goodbye and ran downstairs grabbing her robes.

When he returned to the bedroom, Harry and Ron were sprawled on the same bed, muttering to a piece of parchment.

And seeing Neville enter the door, Harry immediately stopped talking.

"Harry," Neville said, walking straight towards them, as if he didn't see that Harry was frantically packing the parchment, "I have something to tell you."

"What's the matter?" Harry asked.

"Renee and I just passed the eighth-floor hallway—"

"You guys went on a date at the Room of Requirement again?" Ron curled his lips, "That room was really messed up by you guys."

Neville choked, and even though he knew that Ron couldn't possibly know what they were doing in there, he still blushed unconsciously.

"—Anyway, we couldn't get in today."

"Why?" Harry was puzzled, he didn't understand why Neville was telling them this.

"Because we met Crabbe and Goyle at the gate."

Harry immediately jumped up from the bed, slamming the parchment in his hand on the bed: "The Room of Requirement! No wonder! No wonder I haven't seen him—and then? Did you see Malfoy?"

Neville nodded, and hurriedly said under his eager eyes: "But we didn't go in to see what he was doing, we only saw him come out to reprimand Crabbe and Goyle, and then he went back."

"It's okay." Harry was disappointed for a moment, but he still said excitedly, "Now it's enough to know where they are, and we can stop them..."

Ron cleared his throat suddenly, sounding like "Slughorn", and Harry reacted, glared at him and wanted to say something, and worried about Neville's presence, he had to open his mouth and look at him .

"I'm going to the lounge to do my homework now," Neville said sweetly, "You guys also come down later, we can discuss how to block Malfoy."

Harry agreed right away, too fast for Ron to interrupt.

The author has something to say:

Malfoy: Carefully repair the Vanishing Cabinet.

Renee: He must be looking for the Ravenclaw diadem in there!
