The food was delicious, and even Edward and Michael, who had their stomachs stuffed with Duke Honey's sweets, added a portion of everything.

Alan noticed that the twin brothers had not shown up at the banquet for a long time, and it was not until the middle of the banquet that they slipped in with sad faces.

Behind them was the trium Filch.

Filch walked straight to the teacher's chair and said something to Professor McGonagall, who frowned at the drooping twin brother, looking furious.

Seeing this, Alan knew that Maggie had successfully lured Filch to the corridor near the secret passage, and caught the twin brother who was smuggling contraband in the secret passage.

In the faculty chair, in addition to Professor McGonagall, there was another professor who seemed distracted and could not enjoy the Halloween dinner to the fullest—Professor Snape.

For some reason, Professor Snape's eyes were glancing at Professor Lupin frequently, unusually often.

In contrast to Professor Snape, Professor Lupin seemed happy, no different from his usual life, and was chatting energetically with Allen's favorite Professor Flitwick.

The feast ends with a show performed by the Hogwarts ghosts.

They leapt out of the walls and tables and glide in various formations.

Gryffindor's near-headless Nick reenacts his beheading experience to great success.

Mrs. Gray of Ravenclaw sang a melodious and mournful song, which was not very harmonious with the atmosphere of the feast, but received the warmest applause from the Ravenclaws.

"Ms. Gray is beautiful and talented, the best!"

Edward said as he shoved a large chunk of pudding into his mouth.

The little wizards next to him nodded their heads.

Alan was also surprised, he felt the need to make some anti-appetite potion, Edward had eaten too much today.

Hmm—maybe the little wizards of Ravenclaw need it.

The evening was so enjoyable, with hearty and delicious food and a wonderful performance that made every little wizard feel satisfied.

Even Allen, who has always been restrained, feels that his stomach is swollen at the moment.

And what awaits the little Ravenclaw wizards is a carnival - a masquerade ball, which takes place in the common room of Ravenclaw.

Alan transformed into a handsome vampire, holding a crystal glass of red wine, sitting on a large sofa, watching the raves belonging to the Ravenclaws.

Penelope's appearance this time turned out to be a black witch, with flaming red lips and a bewitching figure, which won the admiring eyes of many teenagers.

She walked over to Allen's side and sat down, picked up a glass of butterbeer, and drank it down.

"Why don't you go dancing?" asked Penelope, slumping comfortably into the soft couch and raising an eyebrow.

"I'm sitting here to enjoy your dancing movements!" said Allen, offering to refill Penelope's glass.

"No more dancing?" Alan looked at the seniors who were eager to come up and invite Penelope.

"Forget it, I'm feeling a little depressed!" Penelope instead picked up the red wine that Alan had placed on the table and tasted it.

Alan gentlemanly stood up and opened the window behind them.

Suddenly, Allen's eyes froze, and in the dim night, a dark shadow flashed from the square.

A big black dog!

Familiar big black dog!

Sirius's Animagus!

"Penelope, allow me to be absent. Alan said hurriedly to Penelope.

After Alan was gone, Penelope stood up gracefully, took the position that Allen had taken before, and looked out - nothing but the cold night wind blew in, blowing the Ravenclaw sky-blue curtains.

Alan exited the Ravenclaw common room, disappeared, and immediately ran towards the square.

Unlike the celebratory atmosphere of the castle, the square was silent, dark and empty.

Alan speculated about Sirius' possible direction and stepped into the Forbidden Forest.

The branches that had lost their leaves flickered and creaked in the wind.

A thick shadow enveloped the entire Forbidden Forest, and it was pitch black all around.

If Sirius Black hid in the Forbidden Forest, where was he most likely hiding?

An answer came to Alan's mind - Scream Shack!

So what Alan absolutely needs at this moment is-

"Fluorescent flickering!" he whispered, and walked quickly.

After circumnavigating the territory of the Eight-Eyed Spider, the wand's fluorescent glow revealed a thick tree trunk.

The branches of the beating willow creaked like in a raging wind, whipping back and forth, preventing him from coming near.

Alan observes the beating willow, and the big hole between the roots of the tree is the passage to the screaming shack!

Eren tried to rush over, but a thick twig whipped dangerously in the air, forcing him to retreat.

The branches of the beating willow writhed desperately like crazy when they noticed Allen, as if they never knew to be tired.

Alan knew how to get in, as long as he pressed a knot scar on the body of the tree, the beating willow would immediately stop dancing, as if it had turned into a stone, and even the leaves would not shake again.

But the question is, there are so many knots on this tree, which one is effective?

Time is running out, and Alan doesn't have time to explore them all.

There is no pattern at all to the rhythm of this beating willow, so there is only one way left!

Alan's gaze was determined, and the Wonderful Wizard's robe turned into a tight-fitting nightcoat, covering his entire body, revealing only his eyes, nose, and mouth.

As swift as a leopard, Alan quickly rushed into the cage of the beating willow branches.

One by one, the branches were knocked down, and the thin branches were clenched tightly like fists.

Although Eren was strong enough, he was still crackled by the branches when he approached the roots.

Although Alan was not whipped open under the protection of the Miao Miao wizard's robe, he still felt a burning pain all over his body.

Eventually, Alan got into the hole, crawled head-in, and slid down the dirt slope into the bottom of a very low tunnel.

With time crunched, Alan pushed forward as fast as he could, bending low at the waist.

The tunnel kept stretching forward, and even with Allen's physical strength, it felt quite painful to walk through it.

When Alan's breath was already quite rapid, the tunnel began to slope upward, and after a while, it turned a corner.

Alan saw only a glimmer of light, a small exit.

Alan stopped, gasped, and slowly moved sideways forward.

He clenched his wand - Sirius Black should be inside!

Alan cautiously walked in, and it was a room, a messy, gray room.

The wallpaper was peeling, the floor was stained, the furniture was all broken, as if it had been smashed, and the windows were sealed with wooden boards.

But where is Sirius?
