Archaeologists at Hogwarts

The real thief might have gone to steal the Philosopher's Stone!

Mundungus was just a method used by the other party to divert attention. The purpose was to let him find the suspicious professor so that he could weaken the protective power of the castle tonight.

After thinking about this clearly, Toby rushed to the room protecting the Sorcerer's Stone with Quirrell and Snape without stopping.

At the same time, Toby still has a doubt in his mind - this thief seems to know himself very well and knows what choice he will make.

On the other side, in the room where the Mirror of Erised is placed, Harry and Ron were having an argument.

Ron saw his glorious self in the mirror - he became the captain of the Quidditch team, holding the House Cup and the Quidditch Cup in his hands.

The two men pushed each other back and forth.

"You have been watching alone all night, please give me some time."

"You're just holding the Quidditch cup, what's the fun in that? I want to see my parents."

"Don't push me -"

A sudden sound from the corridor outside ended their argument. They didn't realize how loud they had just spoken.

"quick!"

Ron quickly put the invisibility cloak on the two of them. They waited patiently for a while and quietly pushed the door open a gap. However, Toby and the other three happened to turn around the corridor at this time, without them noticing.

"We should go," Ron said, leading Harry out of the room.

Not long after they left, Dumbledore slowly appeared. He was sitting on a table against the wall, following the running sound of Toby and the three people outside the classroom, his gaze seemed to penetrate the wall.

He held a piece of paper in his hand, which was handed to him by a headless skeleton.

The letter described in detail what happened at the Pig's Head Bar tonight, and at the end Toby also gave a deliberate instruction - "Don't come to the school hospital, principal, wait until I enter the room guarding the Philosopher's Stone later, and then go in again. Remember to use the Disillusionment Charm."

Let’s see if anyone shows up after that.】

"It's really Toby's style."

Dumbledore murmured, burned the letter, and quietly left the classroom where the Mirror of Erised was placed, but his brows inadvertently wrinkled slightly - not all wizards have the ability to cast the Imperius Curse, at least, Quirrell

There is no such ability.

But in this case, what happened to Mundungus?

On the other side, Toby and the other three have already entered the room in the corridor on the fourth floor, and the door lock cannot stop them at all.

The room was dark, and a new silver armor stood above the trap door. Snape and Quilo looked at Toby. Although they didn't know why the armor changed color, they still recognized it through the long ax.

One of Toby's collections.

The armor moved, and it raised its axe, performing a standard knightly salute.

"Don't move."

Toby said: "If you don't want to fight with it, just return the gift quickly."

What?

Judging from their expressions, neither Snape nor Quirrell expected this to be a way to deal with armor.

But after watching Toby raise his wand in return, the two of them followed suit.

The armor stood aside and moved the trapdoor out of the way.

Toby waved his magic wand and the trap door opened automatically. He jumped in first and landed on the soft devil's net without moving.

Next came Quirrell, who looked frightened, and Snape, who was at the back.

"Return gift? Is this the method you came up with?" Snape mocked.

Toby glanced at him: "What's wrong? At least I can teach you to be polite."

Quirrell watched the two of them tit for tat, not daring to say a word.

The Devil's Net is a magical creature that is afraid of fire. For the three professors, the magic of summoning flames was too simple. They quickly escaped from the Devil's Net, descended to the ground, and came to a downward stone corridor.

As their figures were gradually swallowed up by darkness, Dumbledore walked in silently in the trap door room.

As soon as he appeared, the visor of the armor was lifted, revealing a pair of small black eyes - it was Al.

"ah."

"Hello, Mr. Al."

Dumbledore walked up to the armor with a smile. Al immediately left from inside the armor, climbed onto the principal's shoulders very skillfully, and stared directly into his eyes.

Dumbledore seemed to understand Al's intention. He conjured up a quill and a piece of paper, and Al immediately started writing - [There is something wrong with Quirrell.]

Dumbledore was silent for a while, and his and Al's figures became transparent little by little, and finally disappeared completely.

"That's at least a good sign."

"ah?"

"Because Toby still trusts Severus, even though he knows that Severus was a Death Eater."

On the other side, the three of them had arrived at the end of the corridor. In front of them was a brightly lit room with a high vaulted ceiling. Countless little birds that were as dazzling as gems were fluttering their wings and flying around the room.

Fly away. There is a heavy wooden door on the opposite side of the room.

The flying bird is in the shape of a key, and there are several broomsticks placed in the corner of the room.

"Obvious."

Toby said: "We can only open this door if we catch the right key."

Snape said nothing and Toby did not move.

Quirrell had no choice but to ask: "Then, then, what are you waiting for?"

"I don't really like flying broomsticks, I prefer flying carpets."

Toby said calmly, glancing at Snape who had a gloomy expression: "Severus is about the same, but I haven't asked you yet. Haven't you learned to ride a broomstick after all this time?"

Snape glanced sideways at Toby: "Then you are destined to be disappointed. You are the only one who is lagging behind, and you are the only one who is being made fun of."

After seeing the confusion on Quirrell's face, Tobedo explained: "This all happened when we were in school. Severus couldn't even climb a broom. I'm better than him, but I can't fly either."

stand up."

This sounds like a funny thing, but Quirrell is not in the mood to laugh at all. His grades in flying lessons in school were not very good because he was afraid of heights.

Snape has indeed made some progress. He stepped on a broomstick, and the raised wizard robe made him look no different from a bat. Now Quirrell has obviously overcome his fear of heights.

Next, a big silver key was caught and thrown to Toby who was doing nothing.

Toby opened the door with the key, and deliberately clapped twice when Snape came over.

"That's good." Toby said with a smile.

Snape stared at him fiercely, as if to warn Toby not to say a certain Chaser's name at this time.

The three of them walked into the next room. As soon as they stepped in, the room was suddenly brightly lit.

They were standing next to a huge chessboard, with black chess pieces in front of them. Those chess pieces were taller than them, and seemed to be carved out of something like black stone. At the other end of the room, facing them,

They are some white chess pieces.

"Professor McGonagall's Transfiguration."

Toby pointed at the white chess piece that stood up to stop them from moving forward and said, "But I'm not in the mood to play chess right now."

A magic ball floated out from his pocket, melted, and formed a magic circle under the feet of the three people.

In a flash of light, the three of them became invisible.

"Let's go."

The invisible three walked to another door on the opposite side of the room, and this time the white chess piece did not stop them.

When the door opened, a disgusting stench hit their nostrils, and they saw a huge mountain monster standing in the room.

Toby looked at the reappeared Quirrell: "It's your turn, Professor Quirrell."
