[HP] Stranger things

Chapter 17 Hello, Sirius

"Hey, Susan, Cynthia, are you all right? I heard that what Hagrid showed you today was a hippogriff or something, the name doesn't matter, what matters is that I heard that monster was injured Malfoy of Slytherin! Do you have anything to do?" Ann couldn't help asking Susan after sitting at the long table.

Susan's face was a bit ugly, "Fortunately, Cynthia and I didn't go forward. What he showed us was a Hippogriff. A very dangerous animal. I don't know what he thought, but this animal is real. It's too dangerous." Even Cynthia couldn't hold back her nod.

Ann frowned and looked at Susan: "Then, you must protect yourselves well in future classes." At this moment, she was suddenly glad that she was obsessed in the magic world and only wanted to prove herself, so she took the two most difficult courses.Cedric held Ann's hand under the table, and the two smiled at each other.

The best thing about fifth grade for everyone is that this year's Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is no longer an idiot.Professor Lupine is a very good wizard, and his class is also very exciting.He even gave Hufflepuff ten points for Ann and Cedric's Patronus Charms.An felt that the Defense Against the Dark Arts class in everyone's OWLS exam this year should be less likely to be an A, instead of being as bad as before.

In the blink of an eye, Halloween came.A Halloween treat is always great.Of course it would be even better to go to Hogsmeade that day.Although Ann and Cedric have been there a few times, every date is a new experience, isn't it?

On the morning of Halloween, Ann and Cedric skipped breakfast and rushed to Hogsmeade. If it was late, there would be third graders, and there would be a lot of them.Of course, the most important thing is that the breakfast at the Three Broomsticks is really delicious.

"Want to buy Pepper Boy this year, I heard it smokes from your mouth, also, there is a quill made of sugar, I heard you can suck it in class, it looks like you are thinking about the next step How to write, eat candy in class, omg, what a brilliant idea. And the giant ice cream balls that let you float inches off the ground when you suck on them. Merlin, how did I not notice this before! "Ann said with some excitement that she had heard the experiences of Susan and Cynthia who went to Honey Duke several times. Although Ann had been to Honey Duke several times, she only bought those few items each time.Because of this, Cedric said he had a long-term love, just like his feelings for her.For Cedric's love words anytime and anywhere, Ann has grown accustomed to the red face at the beginning, and Cedric also expressed a little regret for not being able to see Ann's red face.

After returning to Hogwarts after being tired from shopping, they decided to go to the dormitory first, and then to the auditorium.

When they came to the auditorium, they were all shocked.Hundreds of jack-o'-lanterns hung in the auditorium, along with a swarm of fluttering bats and many flame-breathing orange streamers that floated lazily below the ceiling like brilliant water snakes.

The food was exquisite; even Ann and Susan, who had eaten Honeydukes to the point of bursting their stomachs, ordered a second serving of everything.The dinner concluded with entertainment provided by the ghosts of Hogwarts.Ghosts pop up from walls and tables to do a sort of parade slide; Gryffindor's Nearly Headless Nick manages to recreate his decapitation.

It's a really pleasant evening. Is there anything more enjoyable than eating delicious food? No, especially when you are accompanied by a beautiful woman, and that beautiful woman is your boyfriend.For a moment, Ann felt that she was simply a winner in life.

When Ann returned to the dormitory, she had just finished washing when she heard Professor Sprout tell her to take the students to the auditorium to assemble.Ann looked at Cedric who was also in a daze.Still follow the instructions of Professor Sprout.

Seeing Anna's wet hair, Cedric cast a Drying Curse without hesitation.He even pulled Ann's robe a little tighter.After all, his girl only wore a pajamas underneath!

Ann looked at Cedric with some helplessness, is it really good to show affection in front of so many juniors?As for the lower grades who are pretending to cover their eyes but are actually peeking, can you be more obvious.

When Ann and Cedric brought a group of juniors to the auditorium, they found that there were not only Hufflepuffs, Ravenclaws, but also Gryffindors and Slytherins.Zacharias slipped back from Gryffindor, gave Ann and Cedric a look, Ann and Cedric nodded, and turned to direct the juniors to go inside.

"The teachers and I will conduct a thorough search of the castle," Professor Dumbledore said to the students. At this time, Professor McGonagall and Flitwick closed all the doors of the auditorium. "For your own safety, I Thought you might have to spend the night here. I asked the prefects to stand guard at the entrance to the hall, and the Head Boys and Girls to stay in the hall and take care of it. Report to me immediately if anything happens," he added to Percy. , Percy looked proud of an important person, "Find a ghost to bring me a message."

Professor Dumbledore paused, and was about to leave the auditorium, and said: "Oh, yes, you will need it." He waved his wand casually, and the long tables flew to the edge of the auditorium, and stood against the wall; With another wave, the ground is covered with hundreds of purple sleeping bags.

"Sleep well," said Professor Dumbledore, closing the door behind him as he went out.Immediately, the auditorium was buzzing with excitement: the students of Gryffindor House were busy telling other students what had just happened.

"Everyone in sleeping bags!" Percy yelled. "Quick, nobody talk! Lights out in ten minutes!"

"What happened, Rice." Ann and Cedric quickly found Susan and they met after settling in the lower grades.

"The Fat Lady has disappeared from the portrait, which has been vandalized, with small pieces of canvas strewn all over the floor, and large pieces of canvas completely ripped from the frame. According to Peeves, it was Sirius Black who Yes." Zacharias said with some seriousness.

Ann was a little puzzled and said: "But Hogwarts is not forbidden for outsiders to enter. Moreover, this castle is not only protected by walls, Hogwarts has also been cast with various magics to prevent outsiders from sneaking in. Light Stealth can't get in. And I'd like to see what kind of disguise can fool those dementors. These guys guard every entrance. If he flies in, they will see. And Filch Know all the secret passages, they will seal them all!"

"Then you said that Black is still in the castle?" Cynthia asked quietly after thinking about it.But these two questions, no one can answer.

"Forget it, you go to sleep, sleep in the corner. Go." Ann said to Susan and Cynthia, "Justin and Rice, you can sleep outside the two girls." They grabbed four sleeping bags and hid them in the corner. in.

"Let's go, Seid, we still have to patrol. I hope it will be safe tonight." Ann was a little helpless, as if they had never had a stable school year since the savior entered school.Every year there is something different, big or small.

Under the school robe, Cedric held Ann's hand and turned to smile at Ann.

"Lights out now!" Percy yelled. "I want everyone in their sleeping bags and stop talking!"

All the candles were extinguished at once.The only light now came from the silver ghosts, who wandered about talking gravely to the prefects.The enchanted ceiling, like the sky outside, is full of stars.In this case, coupled with the fact that the auditorium was still full of whispers.

Every hour a teacher shows up in the auditorium to see if all is well.Around three o'clock in the morning, when many of the students had finally fallen asleep, Professor Dumbledore entered.He was looking around for Percy, who tiptoed among the sleeping bags, snitching on anyone who spoke.

"Any sign of him, Professor?" whispered Percy.

"No. How is it here?"

"Everything is under control, sir."

"Fine. There's no need to ask them to change places now. I've found temporary guards for the portrait hole in Gryffindor House. You can send everyone back tomorrow."

"And what about the Fat Lady, sir?"

"Hiding in the Angel County map on the third floor. Apparently she wouldn't let Blake in without asking for the password, so he did. She's still in a bad mood, but once she's calmed down, I'll call Filch Fix her."

At this moment the hall door slammed open again, and there were more footsteps.

"Headmaster?" It was Professor Snape.

"The entire fourth floor was checked, and he wasn't there. Filch checked the keep, and he wasn't there either."

"Where's the Astronomy Tower? Professor Trelawney's room? Where the owls roost?"

"I've checked everything."

"Very well, Severus, I didn't really think Black would linger."

"How he got in, do you have any idea about that, Headmaster?" asked Professor Snape.

"Many, Severus, each as improbable as the one below."

"You remember our conversation, Headmaster, just before, oh, term started," said Snape, speaking with his lips barely parted, as if he didn't want Percy to be part of their conversation.

"Remember, Severus," said Dumbledore, with something resembling a warning in his voice.

"It seems that it is almost impossible. Black can't get into this school without internal help. I did express my concern. After you appointed..."

"I don't believe that anyone in this castle is going to help Black in," said Dumbledore, in a tone that made it clear that this was the end of the matter, so Snape didn't answer. "I must go to the dementors," said Dumbledore. "As I said, we will notify them when we have searched."

"Are they going to help, sir?" said Snape.

"Oh, yes," said Dumbledore dryly, "but I'm afraid they will never be allowed to cross the threshold of the school as long as I am Headmaster."

Percy seemed slightly embarrassed.Dumbledore left the Great Hall, walking quickly and quietly.Snape stood for a moment, watching the headmaster go, with deep anger on his face.Then he left too.

For the next few days, everyone at school was talking about Blake.Mysteries about how he got into the castle grew: a Hufflepuff student named Hannah Abbott spent a lot of time in their next Potions class after hearing that Black could transform into a flowering bush. Time to tell it to everyone who will listen.

Regarding this incident, neither Ann nor Cedric said anything. Although Cedric was very happy to spend the night holding hands with An openly, he still hoped that this kind of thing would never happen again.I can only pray that there will be no problems in the OWLS exam.Of course, it is better not to have any problems at ordinary times.
