And after this fierce bargaining, Harley finally remembered why she felt a little familiar with her boss.

The boss's eyes were identical to Professor Dumbledore's, and his face was very similar.

Harley remembered that Professor Dumbledore had a younger brother named Aberforth who was probably the owner of the pig's head pub in front of her, as recorded in the book "The Genealogy of Pureblood Wizards" she had read.

It's no wonder that the Pig's Head Pub dared to provide a place for the grey trade in Hogsmeade, the only pure wizarding village in the UK, and also sold high alcohol to young wizards.

Since it's the younger brother of the principal...... Excuse me, excuse me.

After leaving the pig's head bar, it was almost twelve o'clock.

The two did not stop at Hogsmeade and returned to Hogwarts Castle.

Hermione had to finish her homework before the Christmas holidays officially began, and Harley was going back to making the ball.

By attaching the various black magic that the witch specializes in, the ball can be used to locate it probably tomorrow, the first day of the holiday.

Harley wondered what version of the "truth" she would get when she locked on the mouse.

……

The next day, when Harley woke up, only Hermione was left in the bedroom.

"They're gone, breakfast is on your bedside." After Hermione heard Harry get up, she said without raising her head,

"I doubt you're going on a night trip, or why do you wake up so late every weekend."

Hallie yawned, "I don't like to be in the castle at night. ”

"And last night I was down to business, doing something very important and meaningful."

"What's the matter?" Hermione asked casually.

"Prepare for the arrest of a traitor who was the most important murderer of my parents back then."

Harry's voice was soft, but Hermione jerked her head up.

"Who? Voldemort? Hermione said subconsciously,

"No, he doesn't qualify as a 'traitor', you're going to arrest someone else. So who betrayed the death of an uncle and aunt? ”

"I don't know yet," Harley whispered, "I know a lot of information, but it's hard to tell if it's true or not. ”

"But tonight, it's all going to be over."

"Why don't you tell Professor Dumbledore and let him take care of this?" Hermione couldn't help but ask.

"It's my parents' enmity, and it's their friends. I need to figure this out myself. ”

Hallie said crisply.

Hermione's expression was complicated and she didn't speak again.

……

After dinner in the evening, the Gryffindor common room was empty, except for Fred and George mysteriously working on their inventions in front of the fireplace.

This year, the rest of the Weasleys went back.

However, after receiving the money, the twins temporarily changed their intentions and chose to stay in Hogwarts to make the most of the holiday.

Of course, what they say about Mrs. Weasley is to stay in the library and study the Transfiguration Club's homework.

This can also be regarded as true, after all, transforming canary cookies to expand various bird versions is also an advanced use of Transfiguration.

Mrs. Weasley didn't believe them, but Fred and George had repeatedly made excuses to ask Percy about the seventh-grade Transfiguration.

So, Percy invisibly committed perjury to his two dear brothers.

The twins also invite Hallie to watch their work, but Harley politely refuses.

After all, Harley has more important things, she has prepared the materials for the ceremony in advance, as well as the auxiliary tools for the battle.

Tonight, all the fog will lift and the truth will emerge.

At nine o'clock in the evening, Hallie and Hermione slipped out of the common room.

"Are we going to the Room of Requirement?" Hermione was wearing a tracksuit, holding a wand and her face was full of anticipation.

"Of course."

The two quickly came to the wall opposite the tapestry where the troll stick beat the stupid Barnabas, and Hallie said casually:

"Hopefully our luck won't be too bad, no one is using it here."

"How is that possible?" Hermione shook her head, "Most of the whole school has gone home, and there are only four Gryffindors left. ”

Hallie began to think silently to herself:

"I need a room that only Hallie and Hermione can enter...... I need a room that only Harley and Hermione can enter...... I need a room that only Hallie and Hermione can enter. ”

However, when Harley opened her eyes, there was no door on the wall.

Hallie frowned, how could it be so coincidental that someone was using the Room of Requirement.

"I didn't show up at the door." Hermione asked curiously in the back, "You're making too difficult a request?" ”

"No, I just made the same request as before. It seems that someone is using it, so we have to go back to the dormitory. ”

Hallie was a little helpless, who would have thought that such a coincidence that someone happened to be using here?

Especially now that it's out for the holidays and almost all the students are going home, who will be using this?

A few minutes later, the two appeared in the dormitory.

Harley carefully wrote various giant-language words on the ground using a mixture of essential oils and hydrosols, while infusing them with spirituality.

Finally, Harley placed the magic mirror she used most often at the center of the ritual, while her invisible hair cut through her fingertips.

Traces of spiritual blood fell onto the mirror and disappeared in an instant.

Hallie threw the ball above the mirror and started the ritual at the same time.

However, to her surprise, a powerful force prevented Harley from detecting the location of her target.

"Hogwarts obstruction? No, I've performed similar rituals at Hogwarts before, and I've not been disturbed by this. ”

Harley subconsciously mobilized more spirituality, and at the same time prayed to herself, bypassing the seal and borrowing the power of Sequence 4.

After the power of the ritual was strengthened, Harley finally succeeded in removing the distraction, and the image appeared in the mirror.

The Hogwarts castle first appears in the mirror, then quickly shrinks to become a room in Hogwarts.

It was a dimly lit room with a hill of rubbish heaps.

At a glance, Harley saw a specimen of a five-legged monster, a cracked, crumpled cabinet, and an ugly broken bust of an old wizard with a crown.

"Where is this? Is Hogwarts used to dispose of garbage? Hermione stared at the mirror and said with a frown,

"I don't think there's anything so dirty in Hogwarts."

"Let's go ask the house-elf in the kitchen," Harley stood up with the mirror,

"They're the head snakes of Hogwarts, and they're in charge of Hogwarts' hygiene, so they should know about such places."
