Chapter 52: How could it be her?!
The break room that Filch chose to crouch in was the Gryffindor common room. Because he instinctively believed that it was the Gryffindor wizards who were breaking the school rules.
He led Lovell and Lady Loris to a portrait. The portrait depicts a plump woman of grace and magnificence, who is asleep on the table in the portrait.
"Behind this is the Gryffindor Tower, where the Gryffindor House common room is located," Filch said, pointing to the portrait, "and a password is required to enter." ”
He walked to the side of the corridor and waited quietly. He planned to squat here for half an hour, and if there was no one to watch, he would go to the rest of the other academies' common rooms.
Lovell sniffled, smelling an extremely messy scent, but he could barely make out Fred and George.
Filch's wait soon paid off, the portrait shook and slowly unscrewed outward, and a red-haired boy emerged from within, and behind him, a red-haired boy could be faintly seen.
Lovell:?
Fred? And George?!
It suddenly became nervous, and it knew very well how strict Filch was with students who broke the school rules, so it flashed in front of Filch and pointed at Fred and said.
"This is the helper I'm looking for, and they'll help us catch that student on the night tour!"
"Helper?" Filch looked at Fred and George suspiciously, he didn't really believe it. If they were helpers, then why didn't Lovell tell himself before the operation? Judging by the sneaky look they had when they came out, it didn't look like they were here to help.
However, for Lovell's sake, Filch chose to believe that the twin brothers would be released first tonight. Anyway, they are so distinctive, they have already firmly remembered these two people, and if they commit crimes in the future, they will be punished for several crimes.
The priority now is to catch the student who has repeatedly traveled at night.
So he cleared his throat and ordered Fred and George to go back at once. Fred and George, who had been ambushed by Filch, did not dare to say anything, and after throwing a grateful look at Lovell, they turned and returned to the lounge.
They knew very well that Filch wouldn't be so talkative without Lovell, and the two of them couldn't have been let go like this.
Looking at the re-closed portrait, Filch snorted coldly, turned to Lovell and Lady Loris, and said, "Let's go, we can't get anything out of Gryffindor tonight, let's hurry up and try our luck at the other houses." ”
The squatting operation at Gryffindor was both a success and a failure.
The success lies in the fact that he did squat at people, but the failure lies in the fact that he squatted not the people he wanted to catch, and it could only have the effect of startling the snake - even if that annoying guy was a Gryffindor student, he probably wouldn't have come out of such a fight.
But today seemed to be Filch's lucky day, and on the way to the Slytherin common room, Lady Loris smelled the student!
"I smell her!" She stood still, twitching her nose hard, trying to tell which side had the stronger smell.
Lovell also stopped, trying to find the smell in the air that Lady Loris had spoken of.
In the exhalation and inhalation, Lovell felt that he had succeeded, and it was a very fresh smell, like the floral scent of violet.
"Do you smell that?" A look of joy appeared on Filch's face, and he hurriedly urged, "Can you smell where he went?" ”
"Yes." Lovell nodded, it could smell the difference in the intensity of the scent, and judging by common sense, it could find the source of the scent by moving towards something stronger.
Lovell took the lead and walked in the direction he had identified, and Filch followed expectantly.
Meanwhile, across the two corridors from Lovell, a dark-haired girl was walking slowly in the darkness with her wand in hand. The glimmer of the tip of her staff illuminated her path in the darkness so that she would not lose her way.
As she walked, she suddenly frowned: she heard a voice, was it the professor who was on the night watch?
The girl resolutely dodged and hid in a nearby classroom, and to be on the safe side, she also cast a phantom charm on herself.
Just as she was confidently waiting for the limelight to pass, the door of the classroom creaked open, and a figure holding an oil lamp stepped into the classroom.
Filch?! The girl's eyes widened in surprise: Isn't he sick, how can he still have the energy to patrol the night? Madam Pomfrey's medicine works so well? How did he find here?
A bad premonition appeared in the girl's heart.
"Are you sure it's here?" The girl saw Filch asking a question to a silver ball, and to her surprise, the silver ball could also speak human language.
"I'm sure the smell here is very strong, and it's not just the smell, but also the temperature, the breath, the heartbeat......" Lovell paced through the classroom, finally coming to the girl, "I can't see it, but I can feel your presence, come out, curfew violator." ”
The girl raised her eyebrows: I said why I couldn't hide it from Filch this time, it turned out that I found a helper with a sensitive nose!
Filch leaned over with a gloomy face, and threatened the "air" in front of him viciously: "Do you come out by yourself, or let me arrest you out?" ”
The girl who was blocked in the corner was very annoyed, she regretted why she didn't bring the dung eggs and smoke bombs from Jokowi's joke shop, so that she could at least escape.
The continuous success made herself careless, she shook her head, and took the initiative to lift the illusion spell on her body.
After the figure appeared, Filch's eyes widened in surprise: "It's you?!" ”
The girl in front of her was wearing a green uniform, with long black and thick hair, a beautiful face, and black lip gloss on her lips, giving people a feeling that no one should enter.
"Who is she?" Lovell only knew Fred and George, and he didn't know anyone but them.
Filch spoke quickly because of his excitement, and he told Lovell that the person in front of him was Gemma Farley, the prefect of Slytherin House!

In a terrible state, the fever went down to 37.5 in the morning, and then it went back to 38.5 at noon, and I slept most of the day, was awake for a few minutes, and then continued to fall asleep...... It was very uncomfortable, and I didn't eat anything, so I showed off a can of canned yellow peaches and a big ugly orange. Make a bowl of porridge in the evening.
Try not to get infected!!
Speaking of which, today seems to be Christmas, so I wish you all a Merry Christmas.
