After saying goodbye to Hagrid, William returned to the castle alone.

He decided to go to Professor McGonagall to see how the firebolt was doing.

It's not that he doesn't believe in Professor McGonagall's technique, he's ...... Well, he just thinks McGonagall is unprofessional!

What to do if he breaks his big baby.

What's wrong? The Vice Chancellor is amazing, isn't he? Dean Gryffindor is he?

William has to see the broom today!

It's so hard!

He walked to the door of the office and found Wood already inside.

William had to stand in the corner and wait until the two were finished talking before he interjected.

Seeing William coming, Wood seemed to have the courage to speak loudly in front of McGonagall

"Professor, you must return the broom to Harry today, we must win, it is impossible to win without fire bolts!"

"I want to win too." Professor McGonagall said calmly, "But that fire bolt may have Blake's magic. ”

Wood waved his arm, seemingly not taking Blake seriously.

"There's no way Blake can buy a firebow bolt! He's been on the run!

The whole country is searching for him! How could he walk into a Quidditch boutique and buy a broomstick? ”

"Listen carefully," Professor McGonagall accentuated, "as I said, there is a possibility.

I'm not going to bet, three firebow arrows, an invisibility cloak...... This involves the lives of four students, Mr. Wood! ”

"I don't care, Professor, we haven't won a Quidditch Cup for seven years in a row.

I'm graduating this year and this is my last chance. Wood was a little enraged, and he said in an aggressive tone.

"I don't care if the broomstick throws Harry to the ground, as long as he can ride it and catch the Golden Snitch first."

William looked at Wood with his mouth wide open, and then moved back again, afraid of being splashed with blood.

Professor McGonagall pursed her lips and stared at Wood, her lips trembling with anger like an angry lion, and roared aloud:

"Wood, you tell the story. Do you think winning trophies is more important than William's life?! ”

Wood seemed to sober up a little and stammered. "Professor, I'...... Apologies to you. I've been stressed out lately and I'm a little in bad spirits, so-"

"You are in good spirits, sir." She said, "And my tolerance for is not so good!"

Right now

Get out! ”

Wood dejectedly dejected.

William hid in the corner, shivering. Wait, what is he doing here?

After Wood left, Professor McGonagall looked at William, who glared at him with angry eyes.

"What about you? Mr. Stark, you're also here to ask me for a firebolt?! ”

Professor McGonagall's murderous look seemed to make William dare to say a 'yes' and immediately pull out his wand, and let him lose this opportunity forever before he had an accident with the fire bolt.

This is probably the legend: kill the hostages before they are harmed.

Will William succumb so quickly?

Of course not, he resisted for 0.05 seconds.

"No, Professor, I think the Light Wheel 2000 can also be used, it doesn't matter if the broom is good or not, the key is personal strength."

McGonagall's eyebrows raised, her tone softened a lot, and she asked, "Then what are you doing here?" ”

William thought for two seconds and said wittily, "Do you know where the fat lady is?" ”

Since Halloween, Gryffindor's portrait has changed to Sir Cadogan, and the fat lady doesn't know where to hide.

Only Professor McGonagall knows.

The portraits in the castle tell William that the fat lady has been doing psychological counseling.

He now wanted to ask the fat lady what happened on Halloween.

"The fat lady is in the corridor on the fourth floor, which is where the former forbidden area was." Professor McGonagall advised:

"You'd better be careful when you speak, she's been emotionally unstable lately and seems to be suffering from depression."

William suddenly felt that the fat lady was seriously injured.

After leaving the office, William saw Wood standing by the hallway window, with his arms open, as if he wanted to embrace the blue sky like a bird.

Of course, the end result may be like bird droppings, embracing the earth.

Poor baby.

Jump off.

William didn't have to worry about the Gryffindor Quidditch team.

He soon came to the forbidden area on the fourth floor.

Since the Philosopher's Stone incident, this place has been deserted, and because Quirrell died, no one usually comes.

Before he reached the forbidden area, William heard an extremely arrogant singing.

The fat lady is trying to show her singing voice.

Is this what Professor McGonagall calls depression?

The fat lady apparently took the opportunity to strike and was ready to rest for a year and a half.

As soon as William approached, she immediately shut up, looking depressed and seemingly trying to kill herself.

"Fat aunt, your singing voice is still so beautiful." William said with a shameless compliment.

The fat lady made a gesture and spat on, "Bah, who's calling Auntie?" When you say that, I don't want to hear it, and I shout out all my crow's feet. ”

William laughed happily.

He had years of experience dealing with the fat lady, especially during the time loop, and it was a technical job to get her to open the door of Gryffindor.

"What, what's the matter with coming to me?"

The fat lady glanced around, but she didn't see McGonagall, so she didn't hide it anymore, took out a small mirror, and smoothed out her crow's feet.

"I want to ask, on Halloween, did you open the door for Black?"

"Of course not!" The fat lady looked insulted. "Blake doesn't have a password, I won't open the door at all.

Even if he had a password, I wouldn't give him a ...... The little bastard with no conscience, he traveled at night with three bastards back then.

When was it not the old lady who opened the door for them and actually cut through my frame. ”

The fat lady scolded and cursed Blake for being single for the rest of his life.

"And how did he get into the Gryffindor common room?" William frowned.

After Blake entered the break room, he was attacked by the armored guards.

It wasn't the fat lady who opened the door, it could only be opened by someone else.

"Someone suddenly pushed me away from the break room, and Blake rushed in." The fat lady recalled.

"Someone pushed the door open?"

William pondered it, and he finally figured out what was going on Halloween.

The inner ghost stayed in the Gryffindor common room, and when he heard the movement outside, he deliberately let Blake in so that the guards could entangle him.

Then, the inner ghost uses the Illusion Charm, or the Cloak of Invisibility, to secretly lure the Dementors into the school, intending to kill Blake completely.

It's just that those Dementors were stopped by William and Hermione, otherwise the inner ghosts would have succeeded, and Black would have died.

At the time of the attack, William did not see his name on the Hogwarts map.

This shows that the inner ghost knows the cold tracking spell and knows how to erase his name from the map.

An inner ghost who hates Blake, stays by Ron's side for a long time, and knows how to track the spell......

After thinking about it, William could only think of Peter Pettigrew, who was considered dead.

And his own Animagus happens to be a mouse.

If Christmas was still just a suspicion, William is now 100% sure:

Peter did not die, but infiltrated the Weasley house as a rat.

Peter's movements were very secretive, and he didn't even leave much trace, but last year's ghost affair ...... After all, he was exposed.

Twelve years!

It's horrible!

Think about it, a mouse in your own house is actually a wizard?

And Ron has been in the same bed with this mouse for three years!

The next thing is simple, first find Dahei to further corroborate William's speculation.

Just as he was about to go to the library to find Hermione, the door to the forbidden area suddenly opened.

Anne stepped out of it.

The two stared wide-eyed.

The little girl turned around and ran back to the forbidden area!
