Chapter 65: The Smuggling of the Noble Plan

"We're going to stop now! Malfoy had just heard the news that we were going to drop off Noble on Saturday, and he probably didn't know who Noble was, but he could have guessed. The three of them walked quickly through the castle gate towards the cottage. Hermione was nagging all the way.

"But what should we do, it's too late." Harry's expression was broken, as anyone would have found out that their upcoming happy days were all for naught. "We don't know the names of Charlie's friends, so Hedwig can't find them directly! And they're probably on their way to Hogwarts right now. ”

"Then write back to Charlie now, and maybe there's a chance to inform them before they arrive, and think about what you did the last time Malfoy asked you to duel? He informed Filch directly! Maybe when you and Parvati arrive at the Astronomy Tower the day after tomorrow, you'll find him waiting for you at the top. ”

"No...... Hermione, I guess Harry was right, we don't have time. Just as the two of them were arguing, Brandy, who was walking in front, paused and said in a heavy tone.

They were now near the hut, and Harry and Hermione looked ahead in confusion, their ears pricked up, and in the blink of an eye they understood why Brandi was saying that.

The Great Hound, with his ears hanging down, was lying at the door of the hut, looking like he was loveless. There was a lot of noise in the house, and the occasional knocking sound could be heard, and then they were horrified to find that the whole hut seemed to be shaking.

It's almost the scene of domestic violence now, if you don't shoot Noble on Saturday......

"Which of us is going up and knocking on the door? I suspect the moment I open the door might take a Nobber's breath......" The three of them looked at each other, and then Hermione and Harry took a step back in unison.

“…… All right. ”

So Brandi took a deep breath and stepped forward tremblingly, and to be on the safe side, he even took out his wand and recited a super magic iron armor spell, until he felt the powerful magical power around him, and dared to knock lightly on the door. While waiting to open the door, he stumbled upon Yaya's butt and found it with a bandage around its tail.

Brandi's heart was cold.

Squeak~

The door didn't open, but the window next to it opened. Hagrid's head sticks out of it.

"I'm sorry... I can't let you in—" He gasped from exhaustion, his face sweaty, and there seemed to be a roar of excitement from behind him. "Noble is a bit more powerful right now, and it's hard for me to handle it."

"Oh well, we're here because—"

From a distance, they told Hagrid about Charlie's letter. He was very sad when he heard this, and his eyes were full of tears, but judging by his trembling body, it was most likely that Noble had bitten his leg.

"Hehe, I'm fine, I'm wearing a pair of wool pants, and Noble's teeth aren't that long - it's a coquette. Alas, it's just a little hairy kid, that's it—" Hagrid sniffled, his tone sad. "I'm so young that I have to be separated from my mother, I'm really ......"

A flash of fire flashed behind Hagrid, and the hairy child, presumably infected by Hagrid's sad atmosphere, sprayed a fireball the size of a basin and lit up the new futon that Brandi had bought for Hagrid for Christmas—to make his mother happy. Its tail continued to pound merrily against the wall, making the room dusty......

What a filial and sensible doll.

By the time they walked back to the castle with blank faces, their minds were filled with this terrible thought.

Saturday! Hurry up......

Originally, Brandi and Hermione had planned to split their time with Harry and go to the castle on Friday. But after Malfoy's incident, after the two of them discussed, it was more reliable to go out with Harry and them.

"Malfoy only knew it was Saturday night, but he didn't know exactly what time it was, or where we were transporting Noble. We can take advantage of this! Hermione said to Brandy.

"We can go out with Harry and the others, and then go somewhere else to make some noise first, and preferably attract Filch over, as far away as possible - so that we can cover Harry's successful retreat!"

"But what do we do? The next three hours to hide and seek from Filch? Brandi asked rhetorically.

"Please, use your brains......" Hermione stomped on him in hatred. We can get things done and go to Classroom 13 and hide, and by three o'clock Filch is gone and we're going out. During that time, I could lie on the table and sleep to recuperate or something. ”

Her words are well-founded and convincing.

So Friday passed so uneventfully under Hermione's constant reminders and nagging, they didn't go out again at night, but went back to their bedrooms early to rest and replenish their energy. Before going to bed, Hermione devised a very detailed plan of action for Harry and Parvati, even including an emergency evacuation route in the event that Brandy's decoy plan failed. Planned to the extreme, Harry and Parvati were confident in their upcoming Noble smuggling operation.

And so - Saturday night came before I knew it.

"Now let's take a look at the time~"

"Hermione, don't get so excited...... I'll wonder if you've watched too many spy movies. ”

"Less nonsense! If you want to look at it, you stupid Brandi! The embarrassed little shoe stomped on his foot.

"Shhhh All right... Ten fifty. Brandi grinned and pulled out his pocket watch and looked at the time—he had temporarily ordered one from a small ad in the Daily Prophet. In fact, he originally had an electronic watch, but after arriving in the castle, the time began to jump strangely, as if the castle could not use electrical appliances at all.

"Yes, almost." Harry and Parvati also set their time.

"Then you can move, move Noble to the broom cabinet in the foyer, and don't move—"

"Wait until the bell rings at twelve, then start walking from the staircase on the left to the Astronomy Tower according to Plan A, until you reach a loud signal, and then rush all the way up. If you don't hear the signal, something is wrong with you two, so let's go to the middle corridor to the Astronomy Tower. Parvati repeated Hermione's words dryly. You told me more than thirty times last night, and I dreamed of this yesterday. ”

"That's good!" Hermione nodded in satisfaction, "We'll make a noise near the armor gallery on the fourth floor at twelve o'clock sharp, to get Filch's attention." We'll find a place to hide afterwards – it can be a bit long, but if nothing else, you can wait for us in the break room around 4am. So my advice is—"

"We'll wait for you to come back!" Before Hermione could finish speaking, Harry replied first.

"Okay then~ be careful."

"Got it~"

Harry and Parvati donned their invisibility cloaks and silently followed Brandi and Hermione, and slipped out of the portrait of the fat lady. There was no one in the hallway anymore...... Brandi and the others went down to the sixth floor and said goodbye to Harry at the top of the stairs.

"Where are we going now? Go back and rest first? It's still an hour until 12 o'clock. Waiting for Harry's footsteps to fade away, Brandi asked Hermione.

"That's not going to work, we still have to solve a small problem in these few minutes, otherwise Harry and they may still be discovered." Hermione smiled playfully at him, took his hand, and the two of them came to the front of the statue of Fool Polis, she carefully took out a small paper bag from her robe, pinched out a small pinch of white powder from it, and sprinkled it evenly on the base of the statue.

"What is this?" Brandi leaned over curiously and sniffed it, it smelled very cool.

"Don't touch ......," Hermione gently opened his hand, "It's a powder of catnip, wood and yatto, and if you get this stuff, you'll go back and wait for Yale to go crazy in your stomach." ”

Brandi's face couldn't help but change, "Hey! You're going to ......."

"Shh~" Hermione didn't speak, she put away the paper bag, then took out her wand and flicked a spell in her hand, hitting the torch on the wall, the flames on it made an unnatural tremble, and then immediately extinguished.

"Hide with me." She pulled Brandy, and the two of them bent down and quickly ducked into a corner at the end of the hallway. "Cats are sensitive to light, and if Lady Loris were to pass by, she would have noticed something wrong here. Just wait and see~"

"I know the truth, but your powder—" Brandi was sweating profusely, and he didn't know how to describe the strange feeling. "Forget about catnip and wood knotweed, Yagito? That's an aphrodisiac for a jaguar! You use this against Lady Loris...... Oh, God knows which student's cockcat is going to suffer! ”

Hermione's face turned red suddenly, she was so shy that she was about to pinch Brandy's body with her teeth and claws. "Damn it, Brandy, that's nasty! I'm not worried that the former alone won't be able to guarantee it for too long, and catnip can only guarantee that it won't be interested in dealing with us for more than twenty minutes. But we won't be back until four o'clock! You don't think I'm just here to help Harry out of danger......"

But we're not in danger, yes, my Yale is in danger! God knows if this Lady Loris will have that particular preference...... So Brandi had to hold Hermione's hand with black lines to prevent her from moving, while praying to Merlin sincerely that Mrs. Loris would not be tossed too badly. The Fat Lady's door doesn't necessarily stop it.

In less than ten minutes, the big fish Hermione was about to catch was hooked......

Lady Loris seemed to be in a good mood, and she roamed the corridors with her head held high, as if she were cruising through her own territory. It passed by the hallway, then abruptly stopped catwalking.

"Meow?"

Lady Loris turned her head in confusion, as if she noticed that the light in the corridor was a little dimmer than usual. It slowly moved closer and closer...... Until it smells something strange.

What is it? Like the scent of grass chasing butterflies in the field, like the smell of the meat of Filch's owner's fish cutlet, and like the oily and slippery fur with an elegant swagger and flattering eyes...... Meow!

Lady Loris's tail was like a flagpole, and she suddenly lost her ladylike demeanor, and seemed to be all over her blood thinking about her brain and ...... Ahem, convergence. It galloped to the statue's pedestal, rubbing intoxicated over the handful of white powder, its ruby eyes narrowed into two slits.

After rubbing for a long time, it cautiously stepped forward and sniffed gently, "Boom! "In that instant, the whole world was silent! Body, Soul...... The last fragment of consciousness is like an electric light, an arrow off the string...... It's as if your soul is fluttering out, swimming freely in a world full of dried fish and handsome cats!

Ah~ Meow is complete!

……………… Brandi and Hermione perspective..................

Lady Loris came, and as she approached the statue, she pounced on it like a dog, sniffing and licking, and then writhing in place like a wriggling cabbage worm, wantonly exuding her youthful restlessness and estrogen, and drooling downward...... Immediately after, it let out a series of meows that didn't look like a cat at all, and then fell off the base with a shaking head, and with a bia~.

Succeed with flying colors.
