Hogwarts starts with stealing power

McGreg shook her head. No matter who had researched it, she was sure that it was definitely not Babling's work.

If it was Babling who had researched it, Dumbledore would not have had to hide her name.

Other wizards who heard Babling's name did not dare to go to her because of this item, let alone cause trouble.

This is a more mysterious and powerful wizard than Dumbledore!

It is rumored that Babling is more powerful than Dumbledore, but she is just not very prominent.

There are also rumors that she has been staying in Hogwarts, not a human, but a ghost.

There are even rumors that she has the blood of a fairy, has a unique magical talent, and has been hiding in Hogwarts to study some secret weapons.

There are all kinds of sayings, and there are only two words to simply summarize it, that is mysterious.

No one knows how old Babling is, but she has at least been in Hogwarts for hundreds of years.

But time has never been revealed in her fair and delicate face. Even if she does not have fairy blood, she must have inherited the blood of some immortal species.

Snape did not communicate with Magg through emergency transmission, but came directly to her office.

Without waiting for her to knock on the door, Magg raised her head, looked out of the door thoughtfully, and took the initiative to say: "Come in, Snape."

Snape pushed the door open and walked in, his expression as cold as ever.

He said straight to the point: "I think the principal should not give us the task of making glow candles at this moment.

We just cleaned up a strange object not long ago and are conducting a major inspection of Hogwarts. Making glow candles will distract us from the search for strange objects."

McGreg said seriously: "Snape, every professor of ours, including the principal, is very worried about the safety of the little wizard. No one wants the little wizard to be in danger.

The principal also weighed various considerations before giving us this task. Since he asked us to do this, he will definitely have corresponding arrangements. You don't have to worry too much about Hogwarts. The safety of Hogwarts."

Snape: "But I still think that some people in Hogwarts are in contact with the evil world-"

McGreg interrupted him coldly: "Enough, Snape, I believe there is no traitor in Hogwarts, and I never think that anyone will betray Hogwarts!"

Snape was silent for a while, and then said faintly: "McGreg, I don't want to speculate in this direction, but Sirius Black..."

McGreg: "We will continue to investigate this matter, and the Ministry of Magic has also sent Aurors to monitor the Dementors. Harry will be fine."

Snape stared at McGreg for a long time before turning around and leaving the office.

After he left, McGreg sighed faintly.

What exactly is the principal thinking?

She didn't know, and didn't know whether it was right or wrong to do so. The only thing that could be confirmed was that Dumbledore would never harm Harry.

Before tomorrow's Quidditch match, the students of Gryffindor College received a surprise first.

They returned to the common room after dinner in the Great Hall and were surprised to find that the Fat Lady was back!

The young wizard burst into excited applause to welcome the return of the Fat Lady.

"Welcome back, the door of Gryffindor is always open to you!"

"Fat Lady, you are the most loyal and dedicated goalkeeper I have ever seen. I hope you will never leave. I miss you so much!"

"Fat Lady, I can't wait to kiss your picture frame now, if you don't think I am a pervert!"

...

The young wizard welcomed her return so warmly, which surprised the Fat Lady. She thought...

The Fat Lady sobbed and said, "I thought you would scold me. How can I have the face to come back? Although I didn't open the door for Sirius, I also avoided him in fear."

"He is I have ever seen the most horrible and impatient person. I don't want to meet him again. I am hesitant whether to come back. "

"Thank you, little wizards. Your encouragement has filled me with courage again. If I am not confined to the frame... If I see Sirius next time, I will definitely jump out and bravely challenge him to a duel!"

The little wizard hurriedly said: "No, Fat Lady, you should run away, don't let him destroy your frame!"

"If you leave, who will open the door for us?"

"We only recognize you, not other frames!"

The Fat Lady was moved to tears again.

The little wizards said the password one by one, and the Fat Lady opened the door for them. Everyone entered in a line, only Harry hesitated and fell behind.

Ron asked: "Harry, aren't you going in?"

Harry said: "Uh, I suddenly thought of something to find Professor Lupin. You go in first, I'll be back in a while!"

After that, Harry hurriedly left the common room and ran to Professor Lupin's office.

He didn't actually want to find Professor Lupin, but wanted to be the last one to have a chance to chat and communicate with the Fat Lady alone.

Harry pretended to run to Professor Lupin's office, and then ran back.

But he didn't expect that the door opened just as he arrived at the door of the office, and he bumped into Professor Lupin.

Lupin said in surprise: "Harry, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Harry's mind was blank, and after a while he said: "I, I thought of something about the Patronus Charm... Professor, is courage also a happy emotion?"

Lupin nodded without hesitation: "Of course, as long as your courage can bring you positive feedback, it is happy.

We all have to be brave enough to try. If you don’t do it, you’ll never know if you can do it. "

Harry took courage and said, "Even if you know this bravery is wrong?"

Lupine: "Isn't that right?"

He stared at Harry with his melancholy eyes, as if he could see his uneasiness, and suddenly smiled: "Harry, nothing is absolutely right."

“When you decide to do something, you are in the process of finding the answer, and the answer may not be given to you right away.

You may have to go through all kinds of hardships and hardships for many years before you can find an answer.

Only then, when you ask your own heart, can you know whether your courage is wrong or right.

It is also a kind of courage to face the unknown journey and accept the unknown challenge. "

Harry felt certain in his heart and said sincerely: "Thank you, Professor Lupin."

Lupine: "You're welcome. I'm glad I could help you."

-

Harry returned to the door of the Gryffindor common room.

There was no one around at this time, only him.

Harry walked up to the Fat Lady and saw that the Fat Lady had returned to her previous graceful appearance. She looked at him condescendingly and solemnly and said:

"Password."

Harry said: "Fat Madam, instead of going into the common room, I want to ask you something, which may be a little hurtful to you.

But don’t be afraid. Only by facing your fear squarely will you not be afraid next time you meet. This is also a way to be brave. We are all brave and fearless Gryffindors. "

The fat lady lowered her head and looked at him for a few times, her expression suddenly became a little aggrieved, and she actually started crying again.

"Oh, this is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard. Many people came to comfort me, but they didn't understand the fear in my heart. Some picture frames were still secretly laughing at me for being afraid."

She said excitedly: "As long as they face Sirius in person, they will understand why I escaped. If I continue to stay where I am, he will definitely tear my frame to pieces!"

Harry was at a loss.

He hasn't asked any questions yet, why is the Fat Lady so excited?

Harry said: "Fat Madam, what does he want to do?"

Fat Lady: “He wanted to go into the common room, but he didn’t know the password and said it wrong several times.

So he became impatient and began to threaten me, asking me to open it for him or he would tear my frame into pieces. I bravely stood up to him and refused to give in to his threats! "

Harry quickly asked: "Why did he have to enter the common room? Did he say anything else?"

Fat Lady: "No, not at all!"

She said excitedly: "I've told you many times, he didn't say anything and just wanted to go into the common room.

How do I know why he came in? Maybe there is some rare treasure here that he wants to get. He couldn't have come in specially to kill the little wizard, right? "

The expression on Harry's face was a little stiff.

According to newspaper reports, he is probably the young wizard that Sirius wants to kill the most.

But Harry always felt that things were not as simple as imagined.

Harry asked, "Didn't he say anything other than to go into the common room?"

Fat Lady: "No, I only know that when he was about to take a rest, he said he would definitely find him. Who knows what he is looking for!"

-

"Find him?"

At night, Harry was upset and didn't do his homework. Ron didn't do his homework either, so he stayed with him and worried.

The two of them are worried about different things, but that doesn't stop them from understanding each other's feelings.

Hermione came to find them. Opposite everyone was a warm fireplace, emitting hot flames.

Hermione looked at the flames and suddenly said: "It would be great if Lin Xia was a Gryffindor. We would definitely be partners who could talk about anything."

Ron couldn't help but said: "Don't think about it. Lin Xia is so busy that she won't be your exclusive answerer. You should ask her less fanciful questions and be more realistic!"

He still remembered that the last time Hermione was in the Great Hall, she ran to Lin Xia and asked her what she thought of house elves.

Hermione spouted wild words about wanting to free the house elves!

Ron couldn't imagine why Hermione would have such thoughts?

This kind of idea can be called a rebellious idea in the wizarding world!

House elves are originally slaves, why should we free them?

Hermione glared at Ron, then turned to look at Harry: "So what about you, Harry, what are you thinking about?"

Harry said subconsciously: "Find him."

"Who are you looking for?" Ron and Hermione said in unison.

Harry came to his senses and quickly explained: "I'm not looking for anyone. I was too absorbed in thinking about the problem."

Hermione stared at him: "You have been absent-minded for a long time, so what problem are you thinking about? If you have a problem, speak up and let us solve it together. Multiple people can have more power."

Harry looked into his friend's sincere eyes, thought for a long time, and finally told what he heard.

"Sirius is looking for someone! I don't know if he is looking for me. I am a little uneasy, but not in the face of Sirius' uneasiness. I don't know why I am not afraid of Sirius. This idea is very strange..."

Hermione frowned and suddenly said shockingly: "Harry, why don't you meet Sirius.

There is something wrong with your state, it seems to be foreshadowing something, a bit like a prophecy.

You have never met Sirius, but you have a good impression of him in your heart. This kind of good impression cannot appear out of nowhere, it must be revealing something. "

Harry and Ron looked at each other, and Harry whispered: "Hermione, I thought you would object to me meeting him."

Hermione rolled her eyes angrily: "If you can listen to my objection, then I will insist on my objection. Sirius is too dangerous, and I don't want you to face danger.

But if I can't stop you, then I want to make you safer. Let's talk to Lin Xia sometime.

If you want to meet Sirius safely, Lin Xia's help is absolutely essential. "

Harry nodded.

Apart from anything else, if he could get one or two defensive items from Lin Xia, his heart would be more stable.

Harry woke up early the next morning.

He almost thought he was going to be late, and hurriedly jumped out of bed to wash up. When he looked out the window, he realized that it was still dark.

The wind was howling outside and the weather was gloomy.

Even without opening the window, he could feel a cool breeze blowing on his neck.

Harry realized something, his body suddenly straightened up, and he glared viciously at Peeves, who loved to play pranks.

Peeves had sneaked into the dormitory at some point, floating around him and blowing hard into his ears.

Harry lowered his voice and said, "You can't come into the student dormitory. What do you want to do?"

Peeves puffed up his cheeks and blew hard, then swooped out of the room, giggling wildly.

"Harry is angry. He is going to participate in the competition today and will definitely be in danger."

"The dementors outside have been watching you and want to eat you!"

"The expression on Harry's face is so beautiful!"

Harry touched the alarm clock and realized that it was only half past four in the morning. He couldn't even think of falling asleep after being so frightened by Peeves.

He couldn't help but look at the weather outside the window.

There were dark clouds passing by outside the window, thunder and lightning flashing in the dark clouds, and strong winds hitting the castle walls.

He quietly opened the window a little, and soon heard the sound of branches snapping in the distant Forbidden Forest.

Harry cursed in his mind: "This weather is so untimely!"

Why does it seem that every time he participates in a Quidditch match, something unexpected happens.

In a few hours, he would be out on the Quidditch pitch, fighting the storm.

Harry felt a little worried, but he was not worried about himself, but worried about whether the other team members could bear it.

He couldn't sleep even thinking about it, so he picked up Nimbus 2000 and left the dormitory silently.

As soon as he opened the door, he felt something rub against his leg.

When he looked down, he saw that it was the tip of Crookshanks' furry tail. (End of chapter)
