[Comprehensive] Digging Secrets in the Academy of Magic

The door slammed shut before Al's eyes, and he was dragged into a dark room with a narrow door with a small window open in front of him.

In the next second, Al saw Filch coming around the corner through the window. He paused in front of the witch statue for a while, and then slowly left with the oil lamp in his hand. As soon as he left, Al heard himself There was a muffled "The Mischief Ended" from behind.

The hand covering his mouth was finally released, and Al heard the voice of George relieved in his ear—yes, of course, the one who dragged himself into his arms and still hugged him, of course George!

"You don't have to cover me all the time and I won't make a sound, George!" Al complained. "You're so rude!"

"Oh, I'm sorry." George apologized reflexively, still not realizing that he should let go; he had long hands and feet, and Al only reached his chin, and the whole person was wrapped in his arms, fully feeling this Wei Sly's body temperature, "How do you know I'm George?"

Al sarcastically said, "Because you're stupid."

George: "..."

The silly George finally remembered that he was still holding the little Slytherin in his arms, and let go of his hands quickly.Only now did Al see clearly that this was a small broom closet, and Fred was standing behind them. Al was sure that Fred had just put away the Marauder's Map—it was tucked away in Fred's robe, with the a corner.

"Shall we go out now?" Al asked.

"Wait a little longer, Filch may come again." George made a silent gesture, and everyone fell silent. Sure enough, within 5 minutes, Filch came back from where he disappeared again. Turned around the statue twice before leaving.

"He suspects there's something queer here, but he's a Squib and can't figure it out all his life," whispered George.

"Thanks he's a Squib, otherwise we'd be in a lot of trouble," Fred answered.

"Why is Fred here? Didn't I tell you to keep it a secret?" Al stared at Fred and asked rudely.

"It's just... I can't hide it from him, Al." George was a little frustrated. "I wanted to sneak in, but when I walked into the corridor, I realized that he had followed."

"Hey, little Al," Fred approached with a playful smile, "George and I are like one person. It's so unfair that only he knows some secrets and I don't, isn't it? And my mouth As strict as George, no matter what secrets you have, we will not tell them out, if you are worried, we can make an unbreakable oath."

here we go again.Al had little interest in the Unbreakable Vow.

The three of them sneaked out of the broomroom, Fred at the head, Al in the middle, George last, and entered the secret passage in turn.After entering, Fred was still chattering: "I thought Al, you wouldn't agree, but it seems that you also have a little risk factor, don't you?"

Al didn't deny it, but warned them: "Even if there is a fork here, I won't go in again. I advise you not to go in either. It's dangerous there, even more dangerous than the mysterious man."

Fred looked back, looked past Al, and exchanged a look with George.

They were wondering, since Al came from a dark magic family, he should call the mysterious man the Dark Lord.

Al didn't know what they were thinking, but the blatant eye contact between the two annoyed him: "If you have any doubts about me, just say so."

It made Al angry, and George immediately faltered again: "I'm sorry, we just... you're a Malfoy after all, um, do you know what I mean?"

Al replied coldly: "The Malfoy family does not support Voldemort."

That certainly meant the Malfoys - at least Aris Malfoy's politics.The twins didn't exchange glances again, but each understood the shock in the other's heart.

After all, they'd known from birth that Malfoy and the Weasleys didn't and couldn't be on the same political ground.

The rest of the way was silent.Soon, the three of them climbed to the place where they saw the forked road last time, but this time, even if all three of them lighted their wands, they could only see one road in front of them.

To Hogsmeade.

"It's so weird."

Fred looked a little distraught.

"Maybe it's only me and Al that can get sidetracked?" George said objectively.

"No way, brother." Fred's face fell, "If that's the case, wouldn't I never see the place you went to?"

George was silent for a moment, and in this short silence, Al yawned big: "Excuse me, I'm exhausted, I have class tomorrow, please let me go, I'm going back to sleep, okay?"

The twins had to take Al to climb out again.Yawning again and again while climbing Al, it seems that I am really sleepy.

However, George, who was walking in the front, just poked his head out of the secret passage, and was suddenly stunned.Al was blocked behind and asked strangely, "What's wrong?"

"Al? Why are you there?"

It was Harry Potter's voice.

How could Harry appear in front of the one-eyed witch statue in the middle of the night!

George didn't have time to explain anything to Harry, so he flipped out quickly, and then hugged Al out. (Al is really sick of his height)

In addition to Harry staring dumbfoundedly at the three people turned out, there was also a little witch by his side, looking angry, but as soon as his eyes touched Al, the anger turned into surprise: "Alris?"

Al nodded politely at her: "Just call me Al."

"Go, go!" George urged, "It's too late to explain to the children, Filch is coming!"

I didn't see them using the Marauder's Map. Al could only attribute this to the intuition of the twins and Filch who had been fighting wits and courage for so long. A group of five little wizards ran towards the end of the corridor in a mighty way, almost running behind Frey. They had just turned the corner when they heard Filch's voice.

"No one, baby, did they go somewhere else? Did you hear the sound?"

It was Filch talking to his cat.Hearing the voice, the other party seemed to be walking in their direction. The five little wizards bent their backs and ran towards an unknown direction as much as possible without making a sound.

In fact, Al wasn't too worried. After all, there were four Gryffindors here, and even if they were caught, they would suffer a lot of deduction points.

George led a group of people to run up a staircase, it was too dark here, Al couldn't see his feet clearly, he tripped over, George immediately turned around to catch Al as if he had eyes in the back of his head, and then George was extremely He smoothly pinched Al under his armpit, took a few steps with his long legs, and walked across the stairs to the corner.

Al: "..."

To be honest, he was already somewhat used to the tragedy caused by this height difference.

Unexpectedly, George and Al just stepped up the steps. After a dull sound, the stairs shook suddenly, and then the whole staircase moved slowly to the other side, leading to an unknown direction at the end.

Harry and Hermione shouted in panic, and the next second they heard Filch's voice: "Who's there!"

Not caring much, the three little wizards who were trapped on the stairs had no choice but to run up the stairs, but it was Al and George who were dramatically safe.

"What... what should we do?" Al asked in a panic.In terms of violating school rules, I still have to ask George.

"Don't worry, Fred's with them, it'll be fine." George patted Al on the head and held his hand.

"What's this for?" Al asked.

"I'm afraid you will fall down again, little muddy." George replied.

"..."

Al exhausted all his strength and rolled his eyes at George, almost into the white eyes in the sky cap.

The two really didn't care about those little wizards, and walked towards the Slytherin cellar.However, just after taking a few steps, Al suddenly remembered something.

Merlin!Harry and the others went to the corridor on the third floor that was forbidden by Dumbledore's orders during the opening ceremony!

The trapdoor guarded by the three-headed hellhound Lu Wei!
