Archaeologists at Hogwarts

Chapter 154 Another Vanishing Cabinet

While waiting for Filch to return, Harry saw a purple envelope on the table with some silver words printed on it.

[Quickly chant a mantra]

【Introduction to Magic Correspondence Course】

Harry opened the envelope and looked at it. He found that it was a course that allowed wizards to quickly learn spells, but why did it appear on Filch's desk? Does this mean that he was not a regular wizard?

Harry had just read "Lesson One: Hold Your Wand (Some Useful Advice)" when the sound of footsteps came from outside. He knew that Filch was back, so he quickly put the parchment

Stuffed the envelope and threw it back on the table. Just then, the door opened.

“It’s really unfinished.”

Filch looked like he had won a great victory, and he happily said to Mrs. Norris: "Peeves has finally suffered a lot. I hope he will never come back."

His eyes fell on Harry, and then quickly turned to the envelope with the quick spell. Harry realized that it was two feet away from its previous position, but it was too late.

Then, after a series of extremely irritating questions, Harry was allowed to leave. He couldn't believe his luck, so he quickly left the office, walked through the corridor, and came upstairs.

"Harry! Harry! Does it work?"

Nearly headless Nick emerged from a classroom. Behind him, Harry saw a chaotic classroom, as if it had experienced a war not long ago.

"I persuaded Peeves to smash the cabinet on top of Filch's office," Nick said eagerly: "I thought this would probably divert his attention - of course, it would have been smoother if Highmore hadn't come.

"

"So it's you?" Harry asked in confusion: "But what does this have to do with Professor Hemmer?"

"Because he taught Peeves a lesson and wanted to ask him about the origins of the closet." Nick's figure was no longer so transparent: "I can only go to Bloody Barrow for help. Heimo promised Barrow not to be embarrassed anymore.

Peeves, but still needed to use it for an experiment, so he was taken away."

"Oh." Harry didn't know how to react at all. He asked in surprise: "Are Bloody Barrow and Professor Highmore familiar?"

"It's not like they were familiar with each other." Nick said, "It's just that they looked equally lonely and were from the same college. At that time, Heimer thought about asking about the cause of Barrow's death, which made him curious."

Professor Hemmer is so bold.

Harry thought silently in his mind that if it were him, he would definitely not be willing to take the initiative to contact the scary Barrow, and Nick alone was scary enough at the beginning.

However, Nick still helped Harry, which made him feel very grateful, and also allowed him to see the envelope in Nick's hand again.

"Can I know what that letter is?" Harry asked proactively: "Of course, if it's inconvenient, forget it. I just want to do you a favor. You seem to be worried as well."

"Really?" Nick's reaction was unexpectedly exciting. He waved the letter, told him about being rejected by the Headless Hunters, and invited Harry to attend his 500th anniversary.

Harry blinked - 500th anniversary?

He really didn't know whether to express sadness or happiness.

On the other side, in the Ancient Magic Office.

Toby had already brought back the broken disappearing cabinet. Al tightened the rope tied to Peeves and put a skull on its head.

"very good."

Toby looked at Peeves whose mouth was sealed and said with satisfaction: "There is no more suitable test subject than this. If it weren't for the difficulty in controlling it, I would really want to use him to try the Pharaoh mask - but it still counts.

The risk is too great, just see where this disappearing cabinet leads, I hope you won't let me down."

He opened the cabinet door, nodded to Al to throw Peeves into the disappearing cabinet, and then immediately closed the cabinet door.

The two came to sit on the sofa, staring at the other skull with four eyes, trying to see if it would react - once the skull in the cabinet heard the movement, it would be transmitted to this skull.

On the skull.

Little by little, half an hour passed.

Al wiped the Pharaoh mask out of boredom, and Toby was also reading the latest "Wizard Weekly" out of boredom. No matter how he looked at it, he was dissatisfied. He always felt that it was not as good as his upcoming revision of "The Quibbler."

"Seriously, I feel like we'll be able to make a lot of money from the newspaper sooner or later."

"ah."

"I understand that there is a lot of investment now, but if we don't use this method, how can it be so easy for almost everyone to have a copy of "The Quibbler"? No matter how popular the "Daily Prophet" is, it will never be this popular. Trust me

, Al, no matter how bad the result is, it will only be a loss of gold. These magazines will play a big role."

As soon as Al heard this, he was immediately dissatisfied. What he valued most was the gold. He rushed towards Toby with all his teeth and claws, grabbed his hair and pulled him hard.

"It hurts! It hurts! Shh-!"

The two stopped moving almost at the same time, Toby remained motionless, and Al hung on Toby's neck. They both looked at the skull on the coffee table, watching helplessly as its mouth opened and closed, making a slippery tone.

, sounds familiar——

"Mr. Malfoy, it's such a pleasure to see you again -"

"Okay, Bo Jin, I'm here to continue completing the last transaction. You should know that it was the interrupted transaction."

Toby immediately sat up from the sofa. He quickly walked to the disappearing cabinet and opened the cabinet door.

Peeves, who had been waiting for a long time, couldn't wait to fly out of the cabinet. He threw the skull away, didn't even dare to say dirty words, got into the wall and ran away quickly.

Toby paid no attention to the escaped Peeves. He stared at the empty disappearing cabinet and frowned. The skull on the coffee table no longer conveyed the sound of conversation. The originally damaged disappearing cabinet seemed to be damaged due to this opening.

become more serious.

"The Borkin-Bock store" Toby murmured: "The matching disappearing cabinet is in the Borkin-Bock store. Lucius must be planning to sell his prohibited items again. It seems that Arthur is implementing "Muggle Protection"

The progress of the Law is getting faster and faster.”

Al floated over on a flying carpet. He looked up and down at the disappearing cabinet for a while, blinked his eyes and said "ah", as if asking Toby what he planned to do.

"Of course we have to find a way to repair it." Toby said, and couldn't help showing a proud smile: "This shouldn't be difficult. It is somewhat similar to restoring the two skeletons. It requires a transformation spell. Once the repair is completed, we will have

We have created a secret passage of our own. As for Bo Jin, he poses no threat to us. We can buy another disappearing cabinet at any time, or we can leave it alone. Even if we secretly change the package, he may not be able to detect it."

"ah?"

"You asked me what the purpose of this secret passage is? It's hard to tell now. Sooner or later, you will see it with your own eyes."
