Archaeologists at Hogwarts
Chapter 179 Change and Help
Chapter 179 Change and Help
This time I really pissed off Professor Heimer.
The trio was deliberately abandoned in the secret room for a whole night, and was not rescued until the next morning by three flying broomsticks thrown down.
At this time, they were in the common room, each of them wrapped in a thick blanket, each holding a cup of hot tea in his hand to dispel the remaining cold air.
The three of them lowered their heads and remained silent.
At this time, Fred and George climbed in from the passage, both of them in high spirits.
"Hey! What's wrong with you guys?"
The twins came over and asked, sitting next to Ron, each putting an arm on his shoulders.
"Leave me alone." Ron said muffled.
"Oh, this really breaks my heart." Fred said exaggeratedly.
"Yeah, we thought you would be happy to see this -" George took out a small cloth bag from his pocket and waved it in front of Ron's eyes, and there was a crisp collision sound inside.
Then George loosened his fingers and the bag fell onto Ron's lap with a splat.
"Open it and take a look."
Ron opened the bag doubtfully and found that there were two gold galleons inside.
"Where did you get the money?" he asked in surprise.
"It's multi-flavor juice." Fred said proudly, "We successfully sold it."
"Would any bar be willing to buy such a drink?" Hermione looked in disbelief.
"That's not true." George snorted silently and said, "We sold it to Zuko's Joke Shop. It's pretty good as a prank toy. This is your share, so don't say we've treated you badly."
After the two left, the three of them silently stared at the pocket in Ron's hand. They did not expect that this was actually successful and the twins successfully made a fortune.
Hermione suddenly stood up excitedly.
"What are you going to do?" Harry asked in horror.
"We can't wait any longer." Hermione said decisively: "Now that we all know that the suspicion about Professor Hemmer is a misunderstanding, how long do you still want to escape. This time Professor Hemer is really angry. I thought
I thought confinement was bad enough, but I've never seen him deliberately turn a blind eye to us. It might be too late to apologize now."
After experiencing the scene in the Chamber of Secrets in which Professor Highmore resisted the basilisk, how could they still not understand that Professor Highmore was really being targeted, rather than directing and acting on his own.
"Will just apologizing help?" Ron asked guiltily.
"That's better than just waiting." Hermione forcibly pulled him up, and Harry didn't let him go. She led the two of them toward the passage in a hurry: "Or do you plan to be surrounded by sea in the next five years?
Professor Mo is annoying."
However, they missed it. Professor Heimer was not in the office. Only Mr. Al was sitting behind his desk with his legs crossed, glasses with half-moon lenses hanging on his nose, and "The Quibbler" open in front of him.
He looked at the three comers with careful eyes.
"Mr. Al." Hermione asked cautiously, "Where is Professor Hemmer?"
"Yeah." Al shook his head.
"Then can we wait for him here?"
"Yeah." Al nodded and turned the newspaper to a new page.
At the same time, Toby was sitting across the table in the principal's office, discussing something with Dumbledore behind the table.
"You are going to Egypt?" Toby asked doubtfully, "What are you going to do there?"
Dumbledore said calmly: "To confirm a guess. I need to see the immortal mummy with my own eyes. I remember that it should still be locked up in Gringotts in Egypt."
Toby placed his eyes on the black notebook on the table. As for the Ravenclaw diadem, it was hidden somewhere by the principal, and he did not intend to let Toby study it now.
"It turns out it's because of the mysterious man. Are you suspecting that these two things are very similar to the Pharaoh's mask?"
"That's it. But I didn't just call you here because of this thing, there's another thing - Azkaban."
Dumbledore did not forget this matter. He said: "I know you need to go to Azkaban to deal with the threat of the Pharaoh's Mask, but this matter is not as easy as you think. Azkaban is a small building in the sea.
There are no landmarks nearby on the island, and there is no accurate direction. The specific location is only in the hands of the Ministry of Magic."
Toby didn't feel anything about this. He had long thought that Azkaban was an indescribable place, otherwise the dark wizards would have successfully found this place.
He did not interrupt loudly because he knew that Dumbledore would definitely have something else to say next.
"I have thought of two methods now."
Sure enough, as expected of Dumbledore, he had two methods when he opened his mouth.
"I have asked an old friend to help me. You should have heard of his name - Alastor Moody."
"Mad-Eye?"
"That's him, yes. He has been to Azkaban many times and promised to help me. But the premise is that he has to wait until he finds a specific route. Even for him, the way to get to Azkaban before was
You need to rely on the Ministry of Magic. In addition, there is another way, which is to wait until a prisoner with sufficient qualifications appears - by then you can follow him and find a way to follow him to Azkaban.
"
"The second method" Toby said thoughtfully: "Have you placed an informant in the Ministry of Magic? So you can get the news in time?"
"So be it." Dumbledore did not reveal who this person was.
No matter which method is used, Toby has to keep waiting, which in his opinion is an extremely waste of time.
"How about you let me report Remus." He lowered his voice and suggested: "I believe the Ministry of Magic will be interested in a werewolf."
The corners of Dumbledore's mouth twitched twice: "I thought you were friends."
"Friends should help at times like this." Toby said without conscience.
"But the crime is not enough." Dumbledore admonished: "Remus is a kind man, and the Ministry of Magic will not just catch a werewolf and put him in Azkaban."
"It's not easy." Toby waved his hand and said: "It would be nice to fake a crime scene. I think Lucius Malfoy is a good target. I have already thought of the title of the news - "Marfoy"
"The Tragedy at Fu Manor". Of course, there is no need to kill him, just turn him into a werewolf. It just kills two birds with one stone - the Ministry of Magic will not like a werewolf, even if he is a rich pure-blood supremacist
By."
Facing Toby's clever little mind, Dumbledore groped on the bookshelf.
By the time he took out the thick copy of "The Quibbler," Toby across the table had disappeared, leaving only the silver top still spinning.
Fawkes on the branch cried, as if he was amused by Toby.
But only Dumbledore himself knows.
Toby can do this kind of thing.
I even almost succeeded once.
After returning to the office, Toby saw the trio sitting on the sofa.
They huddled together and immediately stood up nervously after seeing Professor Heimer come in.
This time Toby didn't pretend that he couldn't see them anymore. The corners of his mask's mouth curved into an arc, and he said sarcastically: "What, are you still going to stop me from returning to my office?"
Harry's heart skipped a beat, and he said quickly: "That's not the case, Professor, we are here to apologize to you -"
"Apologise?" Toby interrupted: "No, no, no, you don't need to apologize at all. I believe that controlling a basilisk to kill a professor is a normal thing no matter where you are."
Harry's mouth was open and speechless.
Hermione had no choice but to take over and said: "That's all our fault, we shouldn't doubt you."
"No, no, no." Toby said again: "It's normal to doubt me. Who told me to be so strict with you and wear such a scary mask on my face? Oh, by the way, also
I was the one who kicked you out of the office. I should apologize to you, Miss Granger. How could I have kicked you out? You could even secretly prepare Polyjuice Potion. I wasted you.
Talent, it’s all my fault.”
Hermione's face turned red and she was too ashamed to say a word.
The only one left, Ron, seemed to have given up on himself. He said with determination, "You'd better punish us, as many times as we want."
"punish?"
Toby suddenly laughed, which made them feel chills in their hearts.
"No, there won't be any punishment."
He walked behind the desk and looked at the scenery outside the window, leaving a deep shadow behind the three of them.
The three of them lowered their heads to their chests. They heard Professor Heimer's voice, and his tone seemed to be reminiscing.
"Before coming to Hogwarts, the course I really considered taking a job was actually the archeology course, but for some reasons, I gave up on this plan. I had to choose the less dangerous ancient magic course, which was originally part of the archeology course.
a part of."
"I thought this was enough, but it wasn't."
"You neither know how to avoid danger, nor have you learned how to be shrewd."
Toby could have just called them stupid.
All three people heard what he meant, and they did exactly that.
"Professor." Harry mustered up his courage. He felt that it would be too late if he didn't confess.
"I have many things to tell you."
He then told about Dobby, his Parseltongue, and Dobby's master, Lucius Malfoy. He told them all.
This actually gave Toby an unexpected gain.
From Angela, he already learned that the first person to get the notebook was Ginny Weasley.
Through the information Harry told, he was finally able to connect all the clues together - it was Lucius Malfoy who secretly threw the diary to Ginny, which led to her being deceived, which led to
This is my first experience of being attacked.
There was a brief silence in the office, with only the sound of Al flipping through magazines.
"You guys go back."
Toby turned his back to them and said: "Because of the lack of teaching materials, there will be some changes in the courses after Christmas. I hope you can achieve results that satisfy me."
The three people left the office anxiously. They came to the corridor and exchanged glances with each other.
"There will be changes in the curriculum?" Hermione said nervously: "What changes do you think they will be?"
Harry looked equally nervous: "It can't be a real archeology class. Didn't you hear what the professor said? The course he originally prepared was even more dangerous than it is now."
Ron expressed what the two of them felt: "I would rather be imprisoned than take that kind of dangerous class."
But they didn't think so when they returned to the common room.
There were not many students staying in school during the holidays, but they were all gathered in front of the campus magazine, which served as a bulletin board.
"What are you looking at?" Ron asked curiously.
It was a good thing that he didn't speak. As soon as he said these words, all the students who heard the noise turned their heads and stared at them closely. Ron was so frightened that he took several steps back.
And not all of the eyes were on him, Harry and Hermione also became the focus of attention.
They automatically separated on both sides to make way, and the three of them walked towards their sight.
When they came to the end, Fred and George put their arms around Harry and Ron's shoulders, and asked Hermione to walk in the middle as if they were welcoming the queen.
"How did you do it?"
"Can you actually change Professor Heimer's mind?"
"So we don't have to deal with mummy cocks anymore?"
The confused three people saw a few lines of big words written in the college magazine - [The ancient magic class will make appropriate changes in the second half of the semester. Thanks to Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, and
The special contributions made by these three students, Hermione Granger.]
Ron was so frightened that his legs kept shaking, Harry's throat became dry, and Hermione looked desperate.
Professor Heimer is putting them on the fire grill.
It would be fine if the course really became easy, but once it turns into a so-called archeology course.
That would be really bad!
At the same time, Toby returned to the principal's office and watched Dumbledore put away the master copy of the College of Control magazine.
"It's only half a semester." Dumbledore warned: "And I don't want any students to be seriously injured in this course. Please be careful, this is not real archeology."
"No problem, Principal." Toby said with satisfaction: "But I need to go in and out of the school frequently during this period to prepare some arrangements and other things. You won't mind, right?"
Dumbledore was very concerned.
He knew very well that his student would not say these words casually.
He is like a rope, tied around Toby's waist, pulling him desperately to prevent Toby from falling into the path of real sin.
"Fawkes will go with you." Dumbledore said warily.
But Toby looked even more satisfied: "That's really the best."
Then, Toby went to the secret room.
Half an hour later, he returned to the castle, walked back to the office, and said to Fox who was lying on the desk: "Let's go, I'm going out tonight."
Al also set off, standing on one shoulder of Toby, with Fox occupying the other.
Carrying two magical animals, Toby left the castle and walked outside the school gate.
Here he can disapparate normally.
"Hold on tight." He was more reminding Fox: "This time we are going to a very far place."
With a loud crackling sound, Fox appeared dizzy in an unfamiliar place.
Next, it watched helplessly as Toby used a magic ball to make the three invisible, sneaked into a gorgeous manor, broke into a bedroom at night, and took Lucius Malfoy, who had just fallen asleep, outside the bedroom.
Shaking him awake, the basilisk's fangs were deliberately exposed in mid-air, and in Lucius's horrified eyes, they stabbed into his arm, causing streams of dark blood to flow out.
The whole process went smoothly, as if it had been rehearsed countless times in advance.
A chilling and threatening sound came from the air.
"You have less than three minutes to live, Lucius, and telling the truth is your only chance of survival - tell me, where did you hide the Dark Lord's reward?"
All this happened so fast that Lucius was completely unable to respond as he should.
But the feeling of life gradually passing away cannot be deceiving. Lucius knew very well what kind of terrible enemy he had encountered.
When the mouth reappeared, Lucius panicked and said the invisible intimidator: "In the basement, under the wooden planks of the living room carpet!"
He was dragged to the floor by a strong arm and then thrown into the living room. He pointed in a direction with great effort and said: "That's right there."
He became weaker and weaker, and in a trance he saw a magic wand pointing at him.
"Collapse!"
Lucius was hit by the spell and fell into a coma.
Only then did Toby reveal his figure, and he nodded to Al.
Al grabbed Fox, who was struggling to resist. This was not the strength that a sniffer should have, but it just did it.
Basilisk venom is a highly toxic substance with only one antidote: Phoenix Tears.
While Lucius was being treated, Toby waved his wand indifferently, causing the carpet to be lifted up, revealing the floor underneath, and then slowly rising, revealing the stairs leading to the basement further down.
He walked to the stairs, holding the wand in his hand, the magic ball floating beside him, and watched the situation in the basement warily.
He saw countless dark magic items, and also saw a withered branch that should not have appeared in the ground - it looked very familiar, very similar to the wizard's potted plant.
"It seems I'm a little late." He said, looking at the dark magic items.
"But it's also very rewarding. It can be used to make up for the losses in starting the magazine, and it can also get him into a lot of trouble."
"Al."
"ah?"
"Write an anonymous letter to Mr. Weasley for me and ask him to come over as soon as possible to take over some dark magic items that violate the regulations."
"ah!"
Seeing the wound gradually disappearing, Al was finally willing to let Fox go.
Fawkes cried out in grief and anger, turned into a flash of fire, and hurriedly went to Principal Dumbledore in the school for help.
But Toby didn't care about letting the principal know about it.
Faced with a real danger that threatens his life, Toby cannot give up using some extraordinary means.
Although the Pharaoh's mask put him in danger and shortened his lifespan.
But the basilisk's gaze almost killed him.
It was not through endurance that Toby survived to this day after leaving school.
Never.
Harry shivered in his sleep, as if he had dreamed of something terrible.
At the same time, Dumbledore also saw the sad Fawkes in the office and clearly understood what had just happened.
In just a short time, Toby almost killed a wizard with his own hands.
Dumbledore was silent for a long time.
"Are you demonstrating to me?"
He whispered to himself: "I'm still almost losing my control. I'm desperately asking for help."
