Learn magic from Hogwarts

The topic the three of them were discussing was how to pull off a successful prank, and Noah obviously didn't have much experience in this area.

He can leave after knowing the time and place.

The three of them didn't stop him and just let him leave.

Because Keya was hungry, Noah went directly to the kitchen.

As soon as we opened the door, a group of house elves who were preparing dinner immediately stopped what they were doing and looked at Noah who came in as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

Fortunately, these house elves have become more or less accustomed to Noah's presence over the past year.

After a brief silence, a familiar house elf reluctantly walked up to Noah.

"Good afternoon, Lacey." Noah's attitude towards this house elf who was often pushed out to communicate with him was relatively gentle.

After all, this is related to the food rations of your pets.

Over the course of a year, the house elf has learned to compromise: "Just some pigeon eggs and chicken breast today."

"Okay, thank you." Noah said he wouldn't pick. Well, Keya definitely didn't pick either.

Keya: "..."

Okay, I won't pick it for now.

Lacey got the food for Keya and stood at the table and watched as Noah fed Keya.

Noah: "...Lacie, I really don't eat raw meat."

Lacey looked at him with wide eyes and said nothing.

Noah: "..." Okay. The brain circuits of creatures like house elves are sometimes so weird.

After Keya finished swallowing, he lay down on the table with a bulging belly. Noah picked up the lazy snake, put it in his pocket, thanked the house elf, and finally left the kitchen with Lacey seeing him off.

But after all this fuss, it’s time for dinner.

Noah, who hesitated to realize that he basically didn’t read much in the afternoon, said: “…” Just treat it as a short rest.

…

In the evening, Noah naturally went to keep his appointment.

When he arrived, the three of them had been waiting for a long time. They were tinkering with the things in their hands. When they saw Noah coming, they just said hello in a hurry.

Noah walked up to the three of them and looked down at the things they had piled around them.

Dung eggs, snowball eggs, portable swamps, and some weird things that Noah didn't quite recognize.

It seems that he is well prepared.

"Noah, did you meet Filch when you came?"

"No," Noah replied, "but he should be on the third floor."

His current detection magic range is very wide, and he can easily sense Filch's footsteps. He is heading downstairs.

"The third floor." George didn't question Noah's words, he was just thinking about Filch's patrol route.

Filch's patrol route is not fixed, but there are traces to follow, but basically he will not be too far away from Mrs. Norris.

This leaves a lot of room for maneuver.

Noah squatted down and fiddled with the things on the ground, then picked a few and tried them.

He first picked up an ordinary-looking teapot.

Jordan on the side was stunned, and just as he was about to stop him, he saw that Noah had accidentally triggered the mechanism.

A large amount of pungent and pungent smoke suddenly emerged, threatening to wrap Noah up.

Before Jordan could react, the smoke suddenly returned to the teapot, as if the mechanism inside had never been touched.

Jordan: "...?" What just happened?

Noah put down the teapot in his hand and picked up another ball-like object.

The Weasley twins, who had not been able to see Noah's embarrassment, immediately looked at the teapot that was thrown aside with disappointment and began to introduce it to Noah.

"This is a sugar ball." Fred said enthusiastically. "As long as you throw it at someone, you can coat them with a thick layer of sugar. It's the latest product from the joke shop."

"This is a surprise gift box." George took out another palm-sized gift box and handed it to Noah, "There are more than a dozen prank items in it. Every time you open it, it's a random surprise."

Noah glanced at the box in his hand cautiously and did not choose to open it.

George, who failed to induce, looked disappointed: "Don't you want to try?"

"I don't want to." Noah rejected him coldly.

George could only give up the idea of ​​teasing him, and happily picked up another one and tried to recommend it.

Noah glanced at him and stood up: "Filch is coming up, I'm going to take a look."

After saying that, he left directly.

George: "..."

Fred: "..."

Jordan: "?"

The three of them were silent for a second. Fred quickly pulled out a parchment, and the other two immediately came over.

"I solemnly swear that I will do no evil." As Fred chanted the incantation, ink began to appear on the parchment, forming a flat map.

There are several names displayed on the map. Most of the people's names are crowded in the lounge. Only the names of a few professors and ghosts are scattered in their respective offices or other places.

So it is quite easy to find the names of Noah and Filch.

On the map, Noah's name and Filch's name are indeed approaching each other.

"Wow," Jordan said subconsciously in surprise, "how did he do it?"

They didn't hear anything. How did Noah find out?

"I told you before," Fred shrugged, "it's not a bad idea to find him."

"I just didn't expect him to really come." Jordan couldn't help but glare at the two of them, "I thought you were just joking before."

"That's to deal with Peeves. No little wizard would refuse to play a prank on Peeves, even Noah." George said proudly.

Thinking of the "grievance" between Noah and Peeves, Jordan's expression was hard to explain: "Okay, what you said makes sense."

As they were talking, they noticed that Peeves' name on the map also moved.

…

Noah stood in the shadow of the stairs. Next to him was a portrait. The man in the portrait was sleeping soundly, without noticing at all that there was a little wizard standing next to his frame.

Filch was struggling up the stairs, and Mrs. Norris followed obediently behind him, jumping up the steps step by step.

Suddenly Noah moved.

He knelt down and placed a dark object on the ground.

As soon as the thing landed on the ground, it quickly came to life as if it had gained life, and it cast a shadow and took on a shape.

It was a big gray-brown rat, but what was wrong was that it had a big stony gray-white tail trailing behind it, and a pair of obviously abnormal gray-white eyes.

This is a mouse made of simulated rock elements. It looks lifelike, with almost no problems except for its tail and eyes.

Noah raised his fingers slightly, and a dim and fuzzy magic circle dimly lit up on the mouse's back and then quickly disappeared.

A faint silver-gray light shone in Noah's eyes, and the next moment the mouse rushed out and jumped directly past Filch who was going upstairs.
