Harry Potter and the Great Old Ones

Chapter 206 Searching Gryffindor Tower

Tiera still didn't show up for the Halloween dinner that night.

But what made Harry more gratified was that Tiera seemed to have left him a note——

It probably meant that he went to collect some herbs near the Forbidden Forest and would not be back until very late, so he asked Harry to leave him alone and enjoy the banquet.

However, what Harry didn't know was that just as he and his other classmates left the Gryffindor common room, Tiera appeared in front of the Fat Lady's portrait——

"Dragon scum." Tiera said.

"Oh, lovely little Tiera, aren't you going to the banquet?" Mrs. Pang asked.

"I'll come back and change clothes and take a shower." Tiera said.

"Okay, happy Halloween, little..."

After the Fat Madam opened the door, Tiera immediately used a shielding spell on the Fat Madam——

This spell is equivalent to a sleeping spell for ghosts and portraits, causing all the surrounding portraits to fall into a deep sleep——

The portraits are all used to it——

This is what Tiera does every time she plays a prank.

That's why there is almost no evidence that anyone caught him doing pranks.

Tiera left the door to the Gryffindor common room ajar and walked in.

About ten minutes later, a huge black dog ran out of the tree hole under the Whomping Willow, walked through the empty corridor, and climbed the changing stairs to the eighth floor.

In front of the sleeping portrait of the Fat Lady, the huge black dog returned to its human form——

It was a tall and handsome man, with a pair of dark gray eyes looking forward excitedly through a mess of dirty, tangled hair. His figure was tall and thin, like a skeletal wax-yellow corpse.

Wearing a tattered prison uniform——

None other than Sirius Black.

After discovering that the Fat Lady fell asleep, Sirius stepped forward and took a picture of the portrait, trying to wake the Fat Lady up, but——

"squeak--"

With a bang, the door to the Gryffindor common room opened automatically. It was not until this moment that Sirius Black realized that the door was ajar.

The long-term exile made Sirius instinctively alert, but in the end, the desire for revenge overcame everything, and Sirius Black stepped into the door of the Gryffindor common room——

First of all, what Sirius saw was the Gryffindor common room. It was almost the same as the common room in his memory. It was a comfortable round room with gold and red colors on the surrounding walls.

Decorated with wallpaper, the floor is filled with soft armchairs.

There is a huge fireplace near the exit, with a row of sofas in front of the fireplace——

Sirius once remembered the happy times he spent on this sofa with James, Lupine and Peter Pettigrew——

But now, Sirius Black's heart is filled with the rage of revenge. He has no time and no desire to recall the happy times he once had——

Every warm memory made Sirius Black's heart ache.

Sirius quickly walked through the Gryffindor common room and climbed the stairs to Gryffindor Tower -

Because his desire for revenge was too strong, when Sirius Black passed through the Gryffindor common room, he did not notice that the characters in the oil paintings on the wall of the Gryffindor common room were all trapped in the same trap as the Fat Lady.

Sleeping.

Sirius Black didn't know where Harry's dormitory was, so he could only look for it one by one——

Sirius Black tiptoed into the first room in Gryffindor Tower——

It was a rather messy dormitory, with dirty clothes and smelly socks scattered everywhere, and books and homework piled haphazardly on the floor.

The air was still filled with a sour smell produced by the fermentation of sweat, which made even Sirius Black, who had stayed in Azkaban for twelve years, couldn't help but cover his nose gently.

Sirius Black looked at the dormitory for a while, then quietly exited——

This was definitely not the dormitory where Harry was. The size of the socks and clothes on the floor and bed showed that a group of fifth or even sixth grade wizards lived in this dormitory.

Sirius Black continued to climb up the stairs. After passing several more dormitories, Sirius Black finally found the dormitory where Harry was——

Compared with other dormitories, this is an overly tidy dormitory. The quilts on the five beds are neatly folded on the bed, and the clothes are not placed randomly but are piled in the wardrobes next to their respective beds.

The window of this dormitory is open, and the cool air of late October blows in from the window, making the temperature of this dormitory much lower than other dormitories.

Sirius Black found Harry's bed at a glance——

There is a magical photo pinned to the railing of one of the beds. It is a photo of Harry, Tiera, Ron and Hermione, the four little wizards standing in front of Hogwarts Castle.

On the lawn, looking at the camera with a smile on his face.

Sirius Black first walked to Harry's bed, squatted on the ground, gently touched Harry's pillow, quilt and sheets, lowered his head, and sniffed gently.

"Harry..." Sirius said softly.

Then Sirius stood up, walked to Ron's bed, and sniffed at Ron's bed——

Candies, cakes, the unique smell of sweat from adolescent boys, and——

A hint of the stench of mice.

Sirius Black followed the stench of mice and sniffed around the bedroom.

The stench of mice appears under the bed, under the cabinet, and next to the stove from time to time——

Then he disappeared completely next to the open window.

The cold and wet wind at night in Hogwarts blew away most of the breath in the room, and Sirius Black's clues were cut off here.

This made Sirius a little irritable. Years of prison life and the anger of revenge had tortured his nerves to a fragile state——

But fortunately, for Harry, he still had a trace of sanity left and did not do anything irrational. After Sirius Black searched the dormitory again, he still found nothing, so he had to curse fiercely, and then

Sneaking out of the dormitory quietly, along the stairs of Gryffindor Tower, and down to the common room——

But suddenly, Sirius Black smelled an unusual smell——

That's the aroma of food and the smell of burning wood——

Sirius Black carefully descended to the Gryffindor common room, hid behind the door frame of the entrance to the boys' dormitory and looked towards the common room——

There was a warm fire burning in the fireplace in the common room, and there was a coffee table in front of the fireplace. The coffee table was filled with a dazzling array of food, exuding an alluring aroma.

On the sofa in front of the fireplace, there was a little wizard sitting with his back to Sirius Black and his head lowered.

Sirius Black transformed back into the form of a big black dog and ran towards the exit of the Gryffindor common room with light steps——

If the fireplace and sofa were in front of each other, Sirius raised his head and glanced——

Sitting on the sofa seems to be the little wizard named Tiera. At this time, he is concentrating on reading a large book.

"Mr. Black." Tiera suddenly raised her head and smiled at Sirius Black, "Come, sit down, let's talk."

Sirius was like a frightened bird. He exerted force with his four paws and rushed out with a "whoosh". In the blink of an eye, he arrived at the exit of the Gryffindor common room.

When Sirius saw that the door to the common room was still open, he felt happy and rushed out, and then——

Then he saw a burning fireplace, a table of delicious food, and a boy sitting on the sofa reading a book.

Sirius turned around and looked -

Behind it is the entrance to Gryffindor Tower.

"Mr. Black." Tiera chuckled, stroking the big book in her hand, "Come and sit down, I have something I want to talk to you about."

The "inheriter" has gained the authority of space and knowledge, allowing Tiera to modify, tamper with, and travel through space at will——
