Chapter 102: Night Talk in the Auditorium

The name caused a commotion in the crowd, like a cold snap, many students shivered inexplicably, Dumbledore's face was serious, and he groaned and ordered all the students present to return to the Great Hall, and ten minutes later, the students of Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, Slytherin, and other houses also came, and these students all looked confused.

"Looks like we're going to spend the night here tonight, thanks to Sirius, let's enjoy the feeling of sleeping under the stars." Malfoy grinned as he looked up at the starry sky above the auditorium, a smile of intoxication.

"The faculty and I are going to conduct a thorough search of the castle," Professor Dumbledore said to the students, as Professor McGonagall and Flitwick closed all the doors to the Great Hall, "for your own safety, I think you may have to spend the night here." I asked the prefects to stand guard at the entrance to the auditorium, and the boys and girls student council presidents remained in the auditorium to take charge of the administration. Report anything to me immediately," he added to Percy, who looked like an important person with a look of pride on his face, "Find a ghost to bring me a message." ”

Due to the large number of hidden prefects in Slytherin, Snape only ordered the prefects above the age of five to stand guard, and everything else was no different from ordinary scholars. Professor Dumbledore paused and was about to leave the Great Hall, and said, "Oh, yes, you'll need it," and with a casual wave of his wand, the long tables flew to the edge of the Great Hall and stood against the wall; With one more wave, the ground was covered with hundreds of purple sleeping bags. "Sleep well." Professor Dumbledore said that he had closed the door as he walked out. The auditorium immediately resounded with an excited buzz: the Gryffindor students were busy telling the other students what had just happened.

Augustus and his party slipped into their sleeping bags in a corner of the Great Hall, "To be honest, it's amazing that Sirius can break into Hogwarts, not to mention the thousands of Dementors stationed at the door, and the defenses of this castle alone are not for any outsiders to say they can enter. Thor stirred up the conversation with gusto, clearly interested in Sirius' method of breaking into the school.

"After all, he was also a student of Hogwarts back then, and his understanding of this school is not inferior to that of any teacher, maybe there are some secret passages to the school, which have long been in his hands, after all, no one knows the intricate terrain of this castle, as long as it takes some time, I believe it is not difficult to find these secret passages." Lillian yawned slightly, her chin propped up with her left hand, and her sleepy eyes were hazy.

"Yes, just like the Requirement Room that Mr. Augustus discovered, I believe that many teachers and even the headmaster may not know, there are so many secrets of Hogwarts, it is not impossible for him to find some secret passages." Malfoy looked approving, and his gray-blue eyes were full of interest.

"Even so, he is a big living person, wandering around the school, it is impossible not to be discovered by the Dementors, you must know that even if you can be invisible, it is difficult to hide in front of the Dementors, and for these creatures without eyes, any way to hide themselves is futile, I am very interested in how he deceived the Dementors into entering the school." Loki hit the nail on the head and made a crucial point, and the Slytherin students who were listening to their conversation around them fell into deep thought.

"Maybe he knows how to sneak into it," said a Ravenclaw student a few feet away, "and it emerges from thin air." You know the way. "Probably put it in disguise." A fifth-grader at Hufflepuff House said. "Or it flew in."

"Nonsense." Loki pursed his lips in boredom, and the two students around him who gave their opinions dared not speak up, so they had to be silent.

"In my opinion, the most appropriate reasoning for the current situation should be to assume that Sirius is an Animagus, whether it is a Dementor or a Hogwarts administrator, it is impossible to guard against an animal, even if you wander around the school as an animal, it will not attract much attention, plus as Lilian said, he has mastered the secret passage in the same direction castle, and it will not be difficult to sneak into the school smoothly in the end." Augustus touched his chin, and with exploratory thoughts in his eyes, he said word by word.

"If that's the case, as an Animagus, it really won't arouse anyone's alarm, and even if the countless ghosts and teachers wandering around the castle find out, they will only think that they are the pets of a student, so it is unlikely to be discovered anyway." Loki's amber pupils nodded approvingly.

"yes, we didn't think of that." "Indeed, it would be much easier to explain if it were Animagus." "Sure enough, it's Mr. Augustus." "You're so weak." A burst of admiration sounded, and the students of the surrounding colleges began to praise unashamedly, plus the ridicule and ridicule of the speech that had been speculated at the beginning, Augustus smiled helplessly, the strength of the people still cannot be ignored.

"Lights out now!" Percy yelled, "I want everyone to get into their sleeping bags and stop talking!"

"Tsk, the prefect is really powerful, and with an order, all Hogwarts students have to be ordered to act, with such a momentum, I believe it won't be long before the post of Minister of Magic will become in his pocket." Loki looked playfully at Percy, who was standing in the middle of the auditorium, with disdain in his eyes.

"After all, it's the pride of the Weasley family, let's let him play with his prestige, it's not easy for their family to train a successor to the Minister of Magic." Malfoy looked at Percy with a look of adoration and sneered.

All the candles went out at once. The only light now came from the silver ghosts, who roamed around, talking solemnly to the prefects. The enchanted ceiling is like the sky outside, full of stars. In this case, the auditorium was still full of whispers. Augustus was always surrounded by a refreshing breeze.

Every hour, a teacher shows up in the auditorium to see if everything is okay. At about three o'clock in the morning, many of the students finally fell asleep, and at this point, Professor Dumbledore entered.

"Any signs of him, Professor?" Percy asked quietly. "Nope. How's it going to be here?"

"Everything is under control, sir."

"Good. Now you don't have to let them change places. I've found a temporary guard for the Portrait Cave in Gryffindor. Tomorrow you can call everyone back. ”

It seems that Sirius has not yet been discovered, and it is indeed not easy to escape the pursuit of so many teachers and various foreign forces, even if he is really an Animagus. Augustus closed his eyes slightly, his long golden hair slightly disheveled in the breeze.
