Chapter 363: Clueless Mission Five

Winter passes and spring comes, spring passes and summer solstice comes.

In a few days, Harry will usher in his first summer vacation after becoming a wizard.

After experiencing the Philosopher's Stone incident, Harry once felt that Snape was a good person and felt that he was just not good at expressing himself.

So after that, even if he was challenged by the other party in Potions class, Harry tried his best to remain enthusiastic.

But the boy's enthusiasm was limited. After most of the grateful emotion had worn off, Harry suddenly understood that Snape's attitude towards him had never changed.

Maybe he was just fulfilling his duties as a professor.

Ron persuaded him like this, and Harry gradually began to think so.

…

"Harry, Ron, have your luggage been packed?"

In the Gryffindor common room, Harry subconsciously raised his eyes when he heard the sound.

The one who spoke was Hermione who walked in from the outside holding the cat nugget and the tiger girl.

"Oh, there's nothing to pack, just put it in the suitcase before leaving!" Ron said without raising his eyelids as he looked down at the chessboard.

"I haven't cleaned it up yet, um... I'll go back and collect it now."

As he said that, Harry showed a saved expression on his face and immediately stood up from his seat, planning to go back and pack his luggage.

"Harry!"

After hearing this, Ron finally raised his head and said, "The game of chess is not over yet!"

Turning his green eyes, Harry shrugged awkwardly:

"I admit defeat, I can't beat you anyway."

"How can you admit defeat so easily! You obviously still have..."

Before Ron could finish his words, Hermione interrupted with a sharp voice:

"Ron, if you can use your research on chess in your studies, you won't only get an A (pass) in Defense Against the Dark Arts. You know, this year's Defense Against the Dark Arts, students from all grades in the school

Altogether, there are only 10 A’s.”

"A, isn't it also a passing grade?" Although he said this, his face was slightly red.

Hearing this, Hermione immediately sat down on the sofa dissatisfied, complaining like a barrage:

"A pass is a pass, but are you worthy of Professor Rossi? She taught you spells before school started! Humph! You still have the nerve to play the wizard chess that the professor gave to Harry!"

"The professor has clearly said that passing is enough, why are you talking about this..."

Ron stood up from his seat and was so angry that he couldn't speak for a long time.

"Okay, okay, don't mention this."

Seeing the two people starting to quarrel again, Harry quickly tried to dissuade them, "It's going to be a holiday soon, so there's nothing wrong with relaxing."

"You guys are relaxed, but Professor Rossi..."

"What happened to Professor Rossi? Wasn't she very happy the day the Defense Against the Dark Arts test results came out?"

"There are so many students in the school, but her class only has ten A's, and the rest are all E's (exceeded expectations). Of course, this is something to be happy about."

Hermione stroked Tigress's long hair, "But there are ten A's in total, and we have three Gryffindors in the 91st class. We are the ones that the professor paid special attention to. Do you think she will be angry?"

Hearing what she said, Ron's face suddenly turned red: "I just... didn't perform well in the exam."

Brown eyes glanced at him, and Hermione moved her hands:

"Anyway, I heard from the teaching assistant that the professor has been depressed these past few days."

"Maybe this has nothing to do with us?" Ron retorted in a low voice.

"Hermione, you just came back from the professor, didn't you ask her why?"

Harry, who had been silent, asked.

"She's not here. The teaching assistant said that since the test results came out, she often goes out and only comes back at night."

After a pause, Hermione continued, "I guess she went out to relax."

…

At nightfall, Rossi returned to Hogwarts a little tired.

Since the completion of task three, even though she had conversations with everyone in Hogwarts, she still didn't get a single clue about task five.

Originally she thought it was because the time had not come yet. After all, in her opinion, this copy should last for three years.

But there are many things that happen in the world that are unreasonable and have nothing to do with whether they should or should not.

On the day when the students' test results came out and the side tasks were successfully completed, she was really happy.

But this happiness only lasted until that night.

Just after midnight that day, a "ding" sound was displayed behind the unopened task five: the activation time limit is 168 hours.

From then on, she couldn't be happy anymore.

So, taking advantage of the fact that there were no classes these days, Rossi went to see Melody who was retired at home, met with Rufus, the newly promoted Auror Office Director, and even had conversations with everyone at the Ministry of Magic, but in the end

Nothing was found.

And early this morning, after getting the interrogation certificate from Rufus, she went to Azkaban with great expectations, but in the end, she wasted more than ten hours.

As of now, there are only 15 hours left to start the mission.

What a scam! What exactly will this mission five be?

Walking in the corridor leading to the dormitory, Rossi thought silently in a dull mood.

It seems that the six missions in this dungeon do not directly echo the missions in the Philosopher's Stone, Chamber of Secrets and Azkaban dungeons.

She had always believed that the tasks in this dungeon were extracted from the nine tasks in the three dungeons: "Sorcerer's Stone", "Chamber of Secrets", and "Azkaban".

Judging from the several tasks that have been completed, it seems that this is indeed the case, but Rossi followed the key of those tasks to find people and have conversations, but he could not trigger task five.

Could it be that I got off to a bad start?

Should I put aside the tasks of those three dungeons, not think about the connection between them, and only consider the known tasks of this dungeon?

With her thoughts swirling, she came to the door of the dormitory and pushed it open.

"You're back."

Seeing her come in, Grace, who was sitting on the sofa, asked with concern, "Have you had dinner?"

"Well, I've eaten."

Rosie nodded, not seeing his cat Li Zi in the dormitory. Rosie asked doubtfully, "Where's Hu Niu?"

"It should be at Hermione's place," Grace replied simply.

"Oh, it's Hermione's fault again." Rossi nodded suddenly.

Maybe it's because Hermione likes cats, but Tigress has been running towards her every now and then recently.

After chatting with Grace for a few more words, she sat at her desk and looked at the night outside the window, falling into deep thought again:

Just judging from the current few missions, well... they all seem to be related to Voldemort?

Steal Voldemort's right to enter Hogwarts, destroy his plot, destroy his Horcrux, prevent him from using Grace... and finally, capture his little brother?

Uh... If you think about it this way, I won't be asked to kill him in mission five, right?

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but smile.

If the mission were this, it would be too unrealistic. Let alone killing Voldemort or even finding his hiding place, it would be impossible.

At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Who would come to see me so late?

Rossi turned around in confusion and heard Grace standing at the door, asking in a hoarse voice:

"who?"

"It's me and Ron, is Professor Rossi back?" Harry's voice came from outside the door.
