The way back downstairs wasn't easy, although Brandy had an excuse tonight to explain why he was in the castle when he was caught by Filch or some other professor, after all, he was ordered to be locked down, and it wasn't Filch's turn to say when to return to the castle...... But he still had to avoid Hagrid, who threw Malfoy into the hospital room to return to the cabin, as he passed the second floor, and he had to watch out for the butt who ran to the hallway on the second floor to play darts at some point.

The guy was gluing Filch's portrait to the wall and smashing Filch's face with red ink chalk while excitedly humming the Internationale. "Smash your nose ~ Peeves gets fifty points!"

…… Well, at least it looks like it's having fun.

Brandi waited patiently for ten minutes, and finally when he had finished throwing all the chalk heads in his hand, he cursed and went to the next classroom to get the chalk—he hurried downstairs and pushed open the door to the auditorium.

It was obvious that there was nothing in the auditorium.

Really, give a note and don't even say where they are, how can I find them in the invisibility cloak! Brandi depressedly closed the door behind her and walked through the empty auditorium.

Hermione...... Parvati~" He didn't dare to scream too loudly, because he would lure Peeves or Lady Loris, who was likely to be a mother, over, but when he whispered, it felt a little scary in the dark auditorium, and it felt like a ghost.

After a few screams, Brandi finally got her wish and heard the little girl's panicked and suppressed screams. Suddenly three more girls suddenly appeared out of thin air at the long table not far from her—Parvati jumped up in fright and brought her invisibility cloak to the ground, she panicked, and clung to her innocent sister, apparently because of Brandy's screams, and had just had a not very beautiful dream.

It wasn't until the three of them calmed down that they noticed the culprit who was disturbing their sleep.

"Brandy's soul is gone!" Parvati was aggrieved, and when she came up, she was going to find Brandi desperately, "What a good ghost is called!" I was chased by a chocolate pudding as big as a mountain. ”

…… Then you'd go back and eat it. Brandi wiped her nose weakly, and made up her mind to ignore the foodie who was all snacks in this nightmare.

"Why has the confinement been so long," Hermione rubbed her sleepy eyes and straightened her unkempt hair, "Where did Filch take you there?" I didn't do anything to you......"

"He didn't do anything...... Brandi smiled wryly and flicked his shoulder, although the two spells that hit him were blocked, but the impact was still indispensable—"but someone else did, and we were dragged to the Forbidden Forest... Malfoy and I got into a fight with a weird dark wizard... Malfoy was still lying dead in the hospital. ”

"What!" Hermione staggered to her feet, and she scurried to Brandy's side and began to check on him. "How can there be a dark wizard in the Forbidden Forest? How could you mess with that kind of guy, you don't want to die! ”

Brandi had to patiently tell the three of them what had happened that night.

“…… In the end, the task of retrieving the unicorn was not completed, but a small oil bottle was brought back... Here... Look at this. He twitched the corners of his mouth and pulled the golden glitter out of his pocket—its tiny lump, like a sleeping kitten.

"Wow!" This reaction is exactly in line with the movement that a little girl should have when she sees a cute pet, even Miss Hermione, who usually doesn't feel feminine at all, and Padma with an ice cube face can't help but come up, Parvati snatched the golden sparkle from Brandi's hand into his arms, and the three girls chattered together in amazement, leaving behind Brandi's thrilling adventure just now.

"Hey! I said, when we get back to the dormitory, you can touch it again - this guy can't wake up at all, and I've been carrying it all the way without even opening my eyes. "By the time they've all talked about custody of it, Brandi's patience has finally run out." You didn't come to me to discuss how to raise magical creatures! ”

Hearing Brandi's words, Hermione suddenly realized her gaffe, quickly coughed a few times with a red face, and put the gold glitter in her hand back into Parvati's arms in a serious manner. "Didn't I tell you before that I had solved the puzzle~ But now I don't dare to run around the castle unscrupulously...... If you get caught again, you don't have to think about it, you're going to be expelled. ”

She tried to get herself back to her usual aggressive state, but her eyes still glanced into Parvati's arms. "Isn't it just so happened that you had a chance to go out late at night in the open today, and I thought I would take this opportunity to verify whether my answer was correct. As soon as I opened my mouth, Harry gave me the invisibility cloak very happily, without even asking for a reason! ”

"So you brought Parvati and the others along? And then sit here and wait for me? ”

"Who knew you hadn't been back for so long!" Hermione rolled her eyes, "I'm afraid you'll come here again if we're gone...... As a result, I didn't dare to go back. ”

"Well, let's get started!" Brandi was excited to go outside, obviously treasure is an irresistible temptation for any adventurous boy, "But I can only take a look today, the message says that it is risky to open the seal!" ”

He walked a few steps outside to himself, only to find that they didn't want to leave at all.

"Aren't we leaving?"

"Where are you going?"

"Where is the gate of the treasure house!"

"Isn't that it?" Hermione said as she should.

Brandi froze in place, "You mean to say?" Where is the main gate in the auditorium? ”

"Or else?" Hermione held her head up in disgust.

"The beginning of the beginning means that you become a wizard, and the first step to becoming a new Hogwarts student is the sorting ceremony; The end of the end, the end of the seven years of magical learning is also the graduation ceremony in the auditorium. Hogwarts is such a big place! What an easy-to-understand riddle! Hermione tapped Brandi's head with her finger and explained to him triumphantly.

"Hey, be smart!" Brandi shook her head in exasperation and shook off her fingers that poked at the door of her head. What do the last few words mean? Where the four colors are intertwined......" he looked around, "is that curtain behind the faculty chair?" It has the coat of arms of the four faculties embroidered on it. ”

“…… Obviously not, nerd! Have you ever seen a fabric that lasts for a thousand years? If my understanding is correct, it should refer to the oldest thing in this room. Following Hermione's finger, everyone looked suspiciously at the door facing the foyer in front of the Great Hall—directly above it, carved the Hogwarts school crest, a large coat of arms. I've read from A History of Hogwarts that the coat of arms was carved when the Big Four founded the school, and the decoration in the auditorium can be changed at any time, but the school crest certainly not. She said so firmly.

………………

The four of them walked to the bottom of the gate, and Brandi drew his wand - "Really?" I always think it's weird to salute the door. ”

"Didn't I tell you that I wouldn't look at it! Hurry up and close your eyes, it's time to perform the ancient wizard's salute, wand against your left chest, bow deeply...... "Hermione and the three of them flashed to the side, gesturing behind Brandy. "Then chant the incantation!"

"Don't disturb the sleeping dragon!" So Brandi straightened up with a reluctant face and waved his wand at the school emblem - I have to say, this spell was a bit silly to pronounce.

But then he didn't think so.

Completely caught off guard, as soon as the incantation was finished, his wand began to shake violently, and an incandescent arc of lightning suddenly shot out from Brandi's wand, connecting between the school emblem and the wand, it was as thick as a tree trunk, and the shining electric light almost reflected the auditorium as if it were day! Hermione and the others had to use their hands to cover the blinding glare and slowly retreat.

That's too much movement, isn't it?

Brandi gritted his teeth with some concern, he held his wand tightly, the magic power in his body was completely free from Brandi's control like a wild horse, and he was frantically absorbed by the wand, he immediately noticed something strange - this time the wand's plundering of his magic power has risen to a terrifying height, if one of the previous hundred copies of magic power can be used to transform into spells, then the current conversion efficiency is at least three times!

What the hell happened to your wand? He had to think of the wand eating the unicorn...... Could it be that this action has depleted the magic power of the chalcedony reserve again?

In the moment when he was almost exhausted and was nervously thinking, the flow of magic came to an abrupt end - the spell was completed.

They stared blankly at the spectacular sight in front of them.

A large number of silver silk threads spread down from the center of the school emblem and along the stone cracks in the walls, like complex and dense circuits. They fell like a waterfall and eventually converged on the gate below—the gate they had been in and out of so many times suddenly erupted in a burst of bright light, completely transformed into a pure white circle of light, and within the circle of light was a hazy mist that slowly flowed and swirled, like the occasional whirlpool in a river. If you stare at it for a long time, you will even feel that your soul has been sucked in.

Immediately afterward, they panicked.

The strange smell of antiquity and decay came from the other side of the portal... There are also some subtle flavors mixed in... They had smelled the horrible smell in the Potions classroom before—but it was of a completely different nature.

"How could I have a feeling...... Pavati's uneasy voice came from behind him, "what could be a terrible thing behind that door?" ”

"I don't think you're alone, Parvati." Brandi swallowed and looked back with difficulty at the three trembling behind him, their expressions surprisingly unanimous. "There must be something behind the portal!"

They smelled, a faint smell of blood.
