Chapter 58: I've only been on leave for a week, and I've missed so many things

"The best part is not the ghosts' performances, but Peeves." Matteo describes it eloquently: "At the Halloween Ball, as soon as the ghosts finished their show, Peeves attacked the auditorium indiscriminately with a pile of expired cheese and spoiled food. ”

"While throwing it over there, shouting that hateful breath is finally gone, Uncle Ben is free!"

Abominable breath? What was it, and Hope felt like he was missing something.

Hope asked suspiciously, "Headmaster Dumbledore didn't stop it?" ”

Matteo said: "It was stopped, but it was not Lord Dumbledore who stopped him, Headmaster Dumbledore was very happy at the time, and the other professors did not make a move, and in the end it was Barrot the Bloody who stopped him." ”

"What's even more exciting, did you go to the hall when you came back?" Matteo asked.

Hope replied, "Go." ”

"Did you notice that Gryffindor's points have bottomed out?"

Hope frowned, he really didn't notice, because Gryffindor scores had always been very small.

Matteo continued, "After Halloween, Peeves let himself go and played pranks everywhere, and he also took rotten eggs from unknown whereabouts and attacked them everywhere, especially the Slytherin students, with the exception of Gryffindor, and later the Slytherin people found out that it was the Weasley twins who provided Peeves with rotten eggs. ”

After that, the Slytherins went to Weasley to settle scores, and somehow the two houses fought. The entire hallway was filled with dung balls, and in the end, Professor Snape deducted 200 points from Gryffindor, and Professor McGonagall, who was angry at the time, turned green and deducted 100 points from Slytherin. ”

Hope stared wide-eyed as Matteo danced, had he just been out of school for seven days, and had he missed something so exciting?

"The most pitiful thing is George and Fred, the battle between Gryffindor and Slytherin, their rotten eggs are very important, resulting in the corridor on the eighth floor can not be walked, everywhere is the smell of, Filch angrily complained to Professor McGonagall for a long time, Professor McGonagall asked them to clean the corridor on the eighth floor alone, and they couldn't use magic until there was no smell, and the two of them haven't finished cleaning until there is no smell."

Sure enough, other people's pain is their own happiness, and Matteo laughed when he told what happened to George and Fred.

Hope wanted to find out something about George and Fred about the prank props, but he might as well wait until they were cleaning the hallway in the afternoon.

In the afternoon, Hope came to the corridor on the eighth floor, which was empty at this time, and vaguely he seemed to smell some bad smell, and following the smell, Hope found the corridor where the Great War had been, and Hope remembered that it seemed to be the corridor from the Gryffindor common room to the classroom, and it was surprisingly quiet now.

George and Fred were washing the floor and walls with mop holders, and the mop barrel was filled with spices to counteract the stench.

Hope watched the two of them scribble on the wall with a mop, and felt like they didn't want to stop confinement.

Holding back the stench, Hope beckoned, "Hey! George, Fred. ”

When George and Fred heard the voice, they turned to see Hope and walked towards him happily, looking like they hadn't hugged one in a long time.

Seeing this, Hope retreated again and again, they had been cleaning here for so long, who knows if they got dirty.

"Hope, you're so sad to look like this, huh." George said aggrievedly.

In this regard, Hope smiled, Lao Tzu will not be fooled.

This is indeed not the place to talk, Fred said, "Let's go, we'll take you to a magical place." ”

George's face changed in a second, and he said mysteriously: "That will definitely surprise you." ”

Hope curiously followed the two of them, all the way to a place where a tapestry of a troll's rod beating Silly Barnabas was hung, George walked back and forth on the wall opposite the tapestry three times, a large door appeared on the wall, George pushed the door open, and inside was a richly decorated lounge.

George said proudly, "How's it, it's magical." This was something we stumbled upon during our night tour. ”

Hope looked at this mysterious room, wasn't this a room of requirement, he had forgotten such a good place.

George and Fred looked at Hope stunned, thinking that he was stunned, and said very proudly: "You only need to walk back and forth around this wall three times and think of any room in your heart, and this room will appear, and you can come at any time in the future." ”

George thought for a moment and added, "But if someone enters this room, you can't enter from the outside, unless you and the people inside think about the same room." ”

Fred patted Hope on the shoulder and said, "We've tested it, and it's not just us who found it here, but the rest of the school has found out as well, and there were a few times when we couldn't get inside at all. ”

How do you feel that this place is a bit of a bad street, isn't this one of the most mysterious rooms in Hogwarts, Hope thought a little speechless.

But it's important to get down to business: "I've been on leave for the past few days, I'm not at school, I heard that you're fighting with Slytherin, what's going on." ”

As if remembering some sad memories, George and Fred said sadly, "Don't mention it, Peeves, who had become well-behaved, suddenly started playing pranks again for some unknown reason." ”

"He stole our rotten egg and used it on our dear classmates, and we tried our best to stop it, but because our strength was too weak, we were no match for Peeves."

As they spoke, the two suddenly became miserable: "The most hateful thing is the bad students of Slytherin, they actually suspect that we are colluding with Peeves, but it is indeed our mistake, we can't defend it, we can only suffer in silence while fighting Peeves." ”

"Unexpectedly, Slytherin actually intensified, and suddenly pointed the finger at us against Peeves, but we had no choice but to resist, and in the end, under the favor of Professor Snape, the head of Slytherin, we were defeated."

"In order not to make the rest of Gryffindor suffer, the two of us took all the blame and cleaned the hallways here."

Listening to the tragic story of the two, Hope automatically translated it in his mind, which basically means that George and Fred, two naughty ghosts, teamed up with Peeves to target their rival Slytherin, and they both provided various prank props, and Peeves was responsible for playing pranks on Slytherin.

The other houses were completely affected, and later the matter was revealed, and the angry Slytherin went to Gryffindor to settle scores, but the conflict expanded to attract the professor, and the two who were the initiators were killed as an example.
