"You two guys...... I didn't expect you to keep it a secret for long, but it's good that less than two hours after I got back, Hagrid knew I had a Norwegian Ridgeback egg! ”

Pei Chen looked at the two identical red-haired boys in front of him expressionlessly.

The Weasley twins just laughed at this, even they knew they were not doing a good job.

"Well, it doesn't matter, Hagrid knows better than everyone else knows." Pei Chen sighed, then looked around, and found that the common room was empty, and there seemed to be no one else except for the twins, and he couldn't help but wonder. He hadn't lived in Gryffindor Tower, so he knew that it should be the busiest place at eight or nine o'clock in the evening.

"What about the others?"

"Oh, maybe the girls went to take a shower, some of the boys haven't come back yet, and some of them are arranging and preparing other things." Fred replied, and extended an invitation to Pei Chen, "Professor, why don't you stay too!" Half an hour at most, and we'll be ......"

"Nope." Pei Chen refused without the slightest hesitation, he himself used to be a student, and naturally knew that when the teacher was present, most of these creatures would be unnatural, and the twin brothers were still a few after all, "If I stay, it is estimated that your activities will be sour, so it's better not to want to." ”

As he spoke, he hesitated, looked around, and after making sure that no one was nearby, he reached out and pulled out a blank piece of parchment: "However, I would like to talk to you about this thing...... By the way, you can get the wand back first! ”

Seeing the yellowed parchment, the faces of the two brothers suddenly became unnatural.

"Haha, Professor, don't be kidding, isn't it just a little piece of torn parchment? What is there to talk about? George really hated himself for being so easy as to take out everything on his body. Now he just wants to get away with it through gags, hoping to make big things small and small things small.

"Hehe, is it just a small piece of torn parchment? I thought it must be something good that you would carry it with you......" Pei Chen said infinitely regretful, a little disappointed, "However, since it's just a piece of broken parchment, then there's nothing to say, so I'll help you dispose of it!" ”

So saying, he arranged the parchment along the folded tracks, and prepared to put it in his pocket.

"Ahh

The two brothers screamed.

"Okay, I'm not joking with you, and you don't pretend to be stupid for me......" Pei Chen angrily made a roll of parchment paper in his hand and knocked them on the heads of the two of them a few times, "But don't get excited, although I know that this is a magic prop, or something specifically to help you commit crimes, but I won't confiscate your ...... I just wanted to talk to you about it and ask about something. ”

The Weasley brothers were visibly relieved to hear that they would not be confiscated.

"First of all, first thing, I want to borrow this map from you, but the timing is uncertain, and it will probably not be able to return it to you until next semester, what do you think?"

Fred and George looked at each other and calculated, it was already November, and there were less than two weeks left before the end of the first semester, which was no problem at all. So in an instant they came to a consensus.

"Very good, then, the second thing is a problem...... Pei Chen asked in a deep voice, "When you used the live map, did you see the names of people who don't look like the castle?" ”

"Doesn't look like the name of the people in the castle?" Fred hesitated and said, "Professor, we don't know about this, after all, there are so many people in the castle...... It's normal for some people's names to feel unfamiliar. After all, some of the students are not from our college, and some of the names are too long for us to remember all of them......"

Pei Chen frowned slightly, then sighed and didn't say anything. It's no wonder that the map had been in the hands of the two of them for so long, and they didn't notice anything wrong, either that "Peter Pedirul" had just entered the school, or that he was ...... Explain that 5 intelligence and 55 intelligence are not on the same order of magnitude at all.

"Well, you guys get your hands dirty! I'll take this map first......" Pei Chen waved his hand, and then walked out of the corridor without looking back, directly like a whirlwind, swept through the empty corridor, and went down to the third floor.

There was a giant stone beast guarding the door of the corridor on the third floor, Pei Chen hesitated for a moment, and then suddenly remembered something, and took out the map of the living point with a wry smile to check. Although it didn't represent his own small ink dot, after his finger pressed down on his current position, a very, very small password appeared on it.

After the stone beast opened, behind it was a moving spiral staircase, and at the end of the staircase was a shiny wooden door, with a copper knocker in the shape of a lion's eagle's head on the door, and Pei Chen opened the door and entered the circular office.

The walls of the office were photographed by past headmasters, the slender legged table was full of delicate silverware, swirling with jet mist, a shelf behind the desk was the Sorting Hat, next to a glass case with the sword of Gryffindor, on the opposite side of the glass case was a black cabinet with something inside, and a tall gilded perch behind the door with a phoenix Fawkes.

Pei Chen can be regarded as a person who has been to the principal's office several times, and he is so familiar with this arrangement that he can't be more familiar. The only thing that surprised him a little was not the Phoenix Fawkes, who blew up when he saw him, but the person sitting opposite Dumbledore, Snape.

Damn, patronizing to pay attention to whether Lockhart is gone, I didn't think about the existence of other people at all! Pei Chen secretly scolded himself in his heart, but on the surface he was still as calm as water, as if he had expected it. On the contrary, after the two people found out that Pei Chen had suddenly arrived, they were obviously taken aback, especially Snape, whose face was very unnatural, and he couldn't sit or stand, nor walk.

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in what you're talking about...... What do you think? Has the Philosopher's Stone been disposed of? Pei Chen said hello first.

"It's a little bit of a nuisance, but it's not in the way." Dumbledore is also an old fox, but he was taken aback at first, but he calmed down almost immediately, and he didn't even ask why Pei Chen knew the password of his office, "I think about it, only the Philosopher's Stone still exists, then Voldemort will definitely come again, but there is no need to rush to destroy it." ”

Do you want to catch fish twice when you set a bait once? Pei Chen was speechless about this, this old man is too stingy, right? However, Voldemort was sure to be fooled, because he was just a hermit crab now, and as long as he wanted to regain his health and vitality, then he would definitely bite the bait.

Silently praised Lao Deng in his heart, and after lighting wax for Voldemort, Pei Chen didn't care about this kind of, he glanced at Snape, who was sitting straight with an expressionless face, and then said straight to the point: "I found something, but I can't be sure, maybe I need to set up a bureau." ”

"Oh, so who is it against?" Unexpectedly, Dumbledore didn't ask why at all, just confirmed who Pei Chen was targeting, but he didn't clearly express his approval or opposition, which made Pei Chen can't help but scold the old fox.

"Listen to what you mean, it seems that as long as the object I target is something you can't get used to, you will also help?" Pei Chen sneered, took out the map of the living point in his arms, spread it out by himself, and put it on the table. Snape and Dumbledore looked at the worn, yellowed parchment, and were faintly puzzled.

"How to say it, this matter is a bit messy, I haven't straightened it out yet, of course, it may be the reason why I don't know much about the things of the year, I can only rely on speculation......" Pei Chen said lightly, but seeing that the two of them were still in a state of unknown and unknowing, he had to remind him again, "Well, it has something to do with the cause of James Potter's death." ”

Suddenly, Snape reacted as quickly as possible, his expression was a little distorted, and he said in a hoarse voice: "The cause of James Potter's death?" What does that have to do with me? This was the first thing he said after Pei Chen entered the principal's office.

Pei Chen gave him a strange look, a little incomprehensible. I didn't say it had anything to do with you, what are you making a fuss about for no reason?!

Dumbledore showed a slight look of surprise on his face, and then said calmly: "Harry's parents died at the same time, and since it is related to Jaime's death, then naturally it is also related to Lily's death. ”

Pei Chen saw that Snape, the man whose face had always been gloomy as water, was not as straight as before, but bent down slightly as if he was tormented by something. His cheeks twitched, turning pale and desperate, and a palpable trace of pain flashed through his eyes.

Thanks to the thought probe skill that has been open, Pei Chen deeply felt in an instant that this man's mood fluctuations were so violent, or at that moment he came into contact with the essence of Snape's soul that had been hidden - violent and messy, as if he was completely crazy and desperate, and there was a fragility that could not be concealed inside.

What's going on? A dog-blood love triangle?

Because when investigating Lockhart, Peichen was surprised to find that the product was actually a student of Harry's father's class, and even Snape was a contemporary. So now that he saw the performance of this Potions professor, he guessed almost instantly.

Dumbledore held his forehead and sighed, at this moment, Pei Chen actually had the illusion that this was a tired old man, not the old fox he had been wary of.

"What the hell is going on?!" Professor Snape's voice was hoarse, like a wounded beast, and Pei Chen heard his hidden fear, and looked sideways slightly.

He shook his head, no longer thinking too much about those meaningless things, but lightly clicked on the parchment, and then his magic power dropped slightly but immediately recovered, and the parchment began to flow greenly-

"I swear I'm not going to do good! …… Uh, don't look at me like that, that's what this thing is for. Pei Chen explained, only to find Snape staring at the "boot screen"—more specifically, the bluffing nicknames of the makers in the passage on the instructions: Moon Face, Worm Tail, Big Foot, and Pointed Fork.

Made, is it someone you know? Your circle is really messy...... Oh no, it's a small world! Pei Chen secretly slandered in his heart, feeling that he was really powerless to complain about such a situation.
