Hogwarts starts with stealing power

With Harry drawing fire from the front.

As expected, Snape forgot to taunt the others and only focused his fire on him.

When Snape had finished speaking, he threw the two materials in front of his desk.

He said compassionately in a arrogant tone: "Now, take the materials you want and leave. I don't want Gryffindor students to stay in my office for too long."

Lin Xia and others immediately took the materials and left.

In the corridor, Ron rambled on about his dissatisfaction with Snape.

"I have never seen a wizard who discriminates against the academy so completely. He is the first professor I have encountered such a vicious attitude!

If he hadn't really hurt us, I would think he was even more hateful than Professor Quirrell! "

The group of them ran to the laboratory while talking.

After entering the laboratory, Hermione was too lazy to listen to Ron's thoughts, turned around and said to him:

"Shut up, Ron, you said Professor Snape never hurt us.

In this regard, he is much better than Professor Quirrell.

Now I have to go to the laboratory to process these two materials. Please don't disturb my potion experiment. Please stop your complaints. "

Bang.

Hermione immediately closed the door to her private laboratory.

Ron, Harry, Draco and others looked at each other, and he shrugged, not understanding what was going on.

"Isn't there a mute effect in her laboratory? How could I disturb her if I'm talking outside?

If she failed to make the Polyjuice Potion this time, wouldn't she put all the blame on me? "

Lin Xia thought of Hermione's irritable scene and couldn't help but hold her forehead.

She said to Ron: "You'd better pray that Hermione's potion experiment can be successful this time. She is upset because you keep talking bad about Snape and chattering.

To be honest, I think you complained too much about him. Look at Harry, Harry didn't even say as much as you said. "

Lin Xia turned around and prepared to enter the exclusive laboratory.

She had a few little experiments to do.

Lin Xia was halfway there when she suddenly thought of something and turned around and said, "By the way, Ron and Harry."

Lin Xia specially ordered them both.

"If you two are free, help sort out the magic text information. I applied for some basic information from Professor Babuling.

The professor was very kind and believed that we all had the potential to learn magic texts, so he readily agreed to let us conduct preliminary self-study on our own.

So the materials I applied for are all materials that we will learn when we take the Magic Literature class in the next school year, which is the third year.

If you two have nothing else to do, you can sort out these materials in advance and preview them. "

There was another bang.

Lin Xia also walked to her exclusive laboratory.

Harry, Ron and Draco were the only three people left in the living room.

Ron was about to say something when Draco spoke first.

"I'm sorry, I can't stay with you to sort it out. I also have some small experiments to do and I have to go to the laboratory to check the data."

Draco patted them both on the shoulders, "Brother, thank you for sorting out this pile of information first!"

There was another bang, and Draco also walked into his exclusive laboratory.

Ron and Harry were left looking at each other.

The next second, they all looked at the corner of the living room.

There was a huge amount of information piled up there, almost occupying the entire corner.

In the spacious living room, only this corner looked particularly bloated, as if it hadn't been taken care of for a long time.

Ron said in disbelief: "Don't tell me, these materials are all necessary for learning magic text."

Harry looked around.

He was silent for a long time, and said somewhat helplessly: "Ron, there is only this pile of information and documents in the whole living room in the corner, if I am not mistaken."

He paused and said with some seriousness: "That should be this pile of information."

Ron:…

He walked over resignedly, sorted out the information and documents, and muttered:

"I really don't know if I came to their laboratory to study or to do hard work..."

After Lin Xia came to the laboratory.

First, I opened the diary and had daily communication with the diary.

Maybe it was because I didn't answer last time and was blocked.

After Lin Xia started the conversation this time, Tom threw out a lot of knowledge related to transfiguration.

This knowledge is from decades ago, but it is not outdated at all now.

As time goes by, Hogwarts blocks some ancient knowledge more and more tightly.

Lin Xia didn't know whether the wizarding world intentionally classified knowledge.

Some knowledge can be made available to the public.

But more advanced knowledge can only be opened to outstanding wizards.

But she knew something.

The reality is that the more advanced the knowledge involved, the more likely it is to be disturbed by the evil gods' ravings.

This makes the wizard fall into a state of madness, unable to control himself, and extremely destructive.

Hogwarts is safe, and she has never been exposed to what it's like to be disturbed by the evil god's whispers.

Therefore, Lin Xia is not sure what impact the evil god's whispers will have on the wizard's state.

She can only be sure that her "Nine Heavens Xuanyang Secret Record·Melting Furnace" can turn the evil god's murmurs into nutrients.

After Tom threw away all his knowledge of transfiguration, he got down to business.

[I heard you say that the situation at Hogwarts is getting more and more serious. Don't you want to do something for this school?]

Lin Xia: [For example?]

Tom: [I want to see the place where the petrification happened in person, and see the wall with the bloody words. Maybe I can get different clues]

Lin Xia raised her eyebrows.

No matter what, Tom still wanted to go out.

Lin Xia: [All the clues have been cleared up. What's the point of you going to see it now? Do you think you are more powerful than the professors at Hogwarts?]

Tom: [No, no, no, Lin Xia, but what I want to say is that I have been the spirit of the diary for such a long time, and I have awakened some abilities to a certain extent.

Some different powers that only I can exert.

As long as I can go to the crime scene, maybe I can restore the scene that was happening at the time through the traces at the scene]

Lin Xia: [It sounds interesting, but I can't take you there alone. Maybe Tom, can you accept Professor Babel's help? ]

Tom: [Last time you mentioned this professor, I recalled for a long time and finally thought of some rumors about this professor.

I heard that she likes to study strange things very much. Are you sure that after you give me to her, the professor will return the diary to you? ]

Lin Xia: [I have never thought about this question. Maybe we can wait a little longer.

At least Hogwarts has not been closed, right?

It is not the most serious time yet, Tom, don't worry, and I am not in a hurry either]

Lin Xia closed the diary and took the initiative to end this meaningless conversation.

The chat between her and Tom was like a long tug-of-war.

Tom wanted to seduce her and command her to do something she would not do.

And she also wanted to get more clues from Tom's meaningless conversations.

It was 9 o'clock in the evening.

Lin Xia walked out of the laboratory. She was going to start the night patrol with the professor.

In addition to her, Hermione and Draco also joined the night patrol.

Before patrolling, Lin Xia deliberately checked the professors on the scene.

Not only Professor Lockhart was not there, but even Professor Ollivier, who she had been very interested in before, was not there.

Lin Xia's eyes flickered slightly, and she specifically asked Professor McGonagall: "Professor, do you know where Professor Lockhart and Professor Ollivier went?"

Professor McGonagall said lightly: "I don't know, maybe they have more important things to do.

Lin Xia, not every professor has to participate in the night patrol every day."

Lin Xia nodded in response.

This time she patrolled separately from Draco and Hermione.

Lin Xia checked very carefully.

But I don't know if the security of Hogwarts has been strengthened a lot recently.

During this night patrol, she didn't see any strange phenomena, nor did she notice any strange places.

Hermione and Draco couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, feeling that Hogwarts might usher in the long-lost peace.

Only Lin Xia felt a little uneasy, thinking that this was more like the calm before the storm.

After completing the night patrol, Lin Xia returned to the Hufflepuff common room alone.

When she came to the pile of wooden barrels opposite the kitchen on the second floor, she suddenly felt something strange in her heart.

Lin Xia turned around suddenly, looked at the empty corridor around her, and silently chanted the counter-spell of the invisibility spell in her heart.

Silent and wandless casting!

However, Lin Xia found nothing.

She couldn't help but frowned.

Could it be that the bad premonition just now was purely her misperception?

With this doubt, Lin Xia raised her hand and was about to knock on the wooden barrel.

Suddenly, she felt another strange feeling in her heart, which was stronger than before.

Lin Xia turned around, picked up the magic wand, and said seriously: "Who is it? Come out quickly, why are you following me?"

There was silence in the corridor.

It made Lin Xia's words seem like she was talking to herself.

But the more this happened, the more Lin Xia was sure that something had been following her.

Perhaps this was a higher-level invisibility spell, so it could not be cracked by the ordinary invisibility spell.

The atmosphere was speechless and dead silent, and Lin Xia seemed to be confronting the air.

It was quiet for another 5 minutes, and suddenly, some cracks appeared in the corner opposite her.

Lin Xia saw the Weasley twins walk out of this well-hidden crack with her own eyes.

She was shocked.

"What are you doing? Do you know that this is dangerous? Are you following me?"

George and Fred were not nervous at all about being discovered.

George said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, because we are not outstanding students of Hogwarts, we can't participate in the night patrol.

It just so happened that George and I were taking a night walk and saw you, so we followed you."

Fred said: "I want to say, you can actually detect us, how amazing you are."

He asked curiously: "Are you the legendary special physique that the professor talked about?

When George and I used the invisibility cloak, even the professor couldn't detect our existence."

Lin Xia said with a very serious expression: "Senior, maybe we should discuss more about you following me late at night to participate in the night patrol. Don't think about smiling and getting away with it."

She said word by word without mercy: "There is a reason why Hogwarts lets outstanding students participate in the night patrol.

Every time we patrol at night, we have to face dangers that come out of nowhere, but the school prepares for us in advance.

And you followed me without any preparation. If something happens, I can't help you at all.

You are playing with your own lives. This is very serious. Gentlemen, I don't want to encounter this kind of thing next time. "

Seeing Lin Xia's serious expression, the Weasley twins also put away the smile on their faces and said sorry.

George said very seriously: "I can guarantee that this situation will not happen again next time."

Fred: "What George said is what I want to say."

But Lin Xia thought that the Weasley twins liked to play pranks on students on weekdays, and she didn't believe them.

She looked into their eyes sharply: "I think you are thinking now that you must hide better next time and don't let me find out.

Perhaps, you should just change the target of the trailing and change it to one that is easier to fool. "

George said quickly: "Why can you see through my thoughts? ”

Fred subconsciously replied: "Maybe she used truth serum on us."

George: "No, brother, I didn't say a word of truth before, my ears can hear it."

Fred: "That means she used some kind of magic that can see through people's hearts."

Lin Xia looked at them quietly and let the two talk to themselves.

Okay.

George and Fred couldn't pretend anymore.

George: "No one agreed, it seems a bit embarrassing?"

Fred: "It's really embarrassing."

Lin Xia stretched out her hand and said expressionlessly: "Two seniors, in order to prevent this from happening again next time, I need to confiscate your invisibility cloak.

Also, please tell me where this strange thing came from, this is not an item that students can get. "

George: "Can you not hand in the invisibility cloak?"

Fred: "This strange thing is not ours, we are just borrowing it."

Lin Xia understood: "Maybe you two are confident that you can knock me out before I notify Professor McGonagall, and then let me not come to Hogwarts to study.

Otherwise, when I wake up, the first thing I will do is to complain to the professor. "

George and Fred looked at each other.

The moonlight fell on the two of them, making their identical faces add a touch of weirdness.

George said: "I want to knock you out."

Fred added: "But we can't do it, so you can never study in Hogwarts."

George: "So I chose to hand the invisibility cloak to you for safekeeping."

Fred: "But please remember, this is Harry's item. When Harry asks you for it, you can't refuse to give it to him."

Lin Xia took the thin invisibility cloak and said calmly: "Don't worry, I will communicate with Harry in person tomorrow."

After returning to the golden wooden house.

Lin Xia immediately summoned the scales of fate.
