Chapter Forty-Nine: Night Walking
At eight o'clock in the evening, Louis walked out of the Slytherin dormitory on time. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Suddenly, Hermione's voice came from the empty hallway, "Louis, we see you." ”
As she spoke, Hermione and Harry emerged from the front.
"I hope you didn't have to wait. Louis said with a shrug.
"We just arrived. Harry said, "Come in now, the cloak of invisibility is just enough to cover the three of us." ”
Although Louis didn't really want to huddle with them, who made his current invisibility charm not good enough?
Along the way, they were relatively uneventful, and they were lucky not to encounter Peeves who often wandered around the castle at night. However, Lady Loris had stared at their hiding place suspiciously, but fortunately it had only watched for a moment before leaving.
They cautiously walked to Hagrid's cabin and called Hagrid out.
Hagrid was about to say goodbye to Noble, and if it weren't for Harry and Hermione's anxious urging Hagrid for fear of being discovered, Louis didn't think he would have made much progress even by dawn.
Hagrid had packed Noble into a large crate, and everything looked ready to go.
"I gave him a lot of rats, and some brandy to eat on the way. "Hagrid said in a dull tone, "I also put its teddy bear in case it gets bored on the road." ”
There was a tearing sound from the crate, and Louis thought that the poor teddy bear must have been miserably dismembered.
"Goodbye! Nobel!" Hagrid said, sobbing, "Mommy will never forget you." ”
Hermione opened the cloak, and Louis and Harry slipped inside with the crate.
Although Louis didn't want to touch the crate full of dead rats, he couldn't let Hermione and Harry carry it, right? Of course, if it weren't for Louis's inability to support the magic of the Levitation Charm, he would definitely choose to use the Levitation Charm.
As midnight wore on, they carried Noble up the marble steps of the foyer and down the darkened hallway. Despite their shortcuts, they were tired and panting.
"It's almost there!" Harry said breathlessly as they reached the hallway one floor below the tallest tower.
There was a sudden movement in front of them, and they were so frightened that they almost threw away the box in their hands. Forgetting that they were still invisible in their invisibility cloaks, they quickly retreated into the shadows and prayed not to be discovered.
More than a dozen meters away from them, two black figures stood together.
It turned out to be Professor McGonagall, who was seen wearing a plaid pajamas, tugging at Malfoy's ears.
"Confinement!" Professor McGonagall screamed, "Slytherin is detained!
"You don't understand, Professor, Harry Potter is coming, and they're bringing a dragon!"
"Nonsense! How dare you make up such a lie! Go, I'd like to see what Professor Snape does with you, Malfoy!"
By the time Professor McGonagall dragged Malfoy away, the spiral staircase through the tower seemed like the easiest way in the world. They didn't take off their invisibility cloaks until they were on top of the tower, and they were finally free to stretch their bodies again.
"Malfoy is locked up! I want to sing!" Hermione said pleasantly.
"I think you'd better not sing. "Otherwise, we're going to be locked up with Malfoy." ”
They waited on the top of the tower, tasting the cake that Louis had secretly brought, and of course, not forgetting all sorts of mockery of Malfoy.
About ten minutes later, four broomsticks landed out of the darkness.
