Chapter 302: Quirrell Escaped From Prison Again?

After Johnson said goodbye to Vincent who was filling the grass, he declined McGonagall's reminder and left Hogwarts.

He saw a lot and thought a lot.

Popularity, fame, potential.

He believed that Mr. Alton would make the right choice, just as he believed that Sideswipe would defeat Nimbus and Comet and become the largest broom company in Europe.

It took almost a whole day to finally fill in the bumpy grass on the golf course.

But some things can be restored, and some things cannot.

For example, Hermione's burnt hair, or Ron's wand which has been completely scrapped.

"No, my mother will kill me!"

Harry, who was lying on the bed, was shaking slightly.

If the last yelling letter comes again, I believe that even if Molly doesn't take him back, he will definitely become more self-defeating.

"You can't keep using this wand, can you?"

"I'm embarrassed enough, Harry." Ron said, recalling the feeling of spitting out slugs during the day.

"This is my nightmare, I just wish people were more interested in pictures of Malfoy."

Harry wanted to comfort him but didn't know what to say.

The Malfoy family is rich and powerful, and no one will dare to talk about the photo in a few days.

"By the way, we can ask Colin for photos!" Ron stood up and put on his slippers.

"It's too late, why don't we go tomorrow."

He pulled Harry up and said, "It's too late to go tomorrow!

Colin is as timid as Neville, and he might destroy the negatives with just a few threats! "

"Okay. Harry put on his glasses and stumbled out of the dormitory, dragging him.

Colin was still in a daze when he was woken up, "I don't have the negatives I took today."

"Where?"

"Professor Lockhart took it. He said he would publish the photo in the newspaper."

Harry and Ron both stiffened and rolled their necks.

"Isn't he trying to publicize the fact that he made Malfoy's bones disappear?"

"I don't think a picture like this would appear in a newspaper."

"Thank you, Colin." Harry and Ron ran back to the dormitory.

"We still have time!"

"Yeah, as long as we're quiet."

With an invisibility cloak, both of them disappeared.

…

…

The six little ones in the kitchen were full and were about to go to the Slytherin dormitory for a "tour" when they noticed two names moving on the Marauder's Map.

"What do they want to do?" George stared closely at the two people's footprints.

"You must be hungry." Vincent didn't pay much attention to this matter.

With the Deathly Hallows, the invisibility cloak, the possibility of being discovered was almost zero as long as it was not where Snape was staying.

Hermione, whose hair was cut shorter, was not as optimistic as he was.

It's almost zero but not equal to zero.

She was also staring at the map until two series of small footprints came to the third floor corridor.

"Third floor? I remember Lockhart's office seemed to be there."

George joked: "As expected of Miss Know-It-All, she even has information about the new professor.

Hermione blushed slightly and glared fiercely, "I admit that I was blind before, but can you please stop mentioning this!"

"Okay, okay, let's not talk anymore." George immediately raised his hands in surrender.

Fred smoothed things over with a smile, "Don't mention her, there are quite a few blind witches in the world of magic."

"Like mom?"

"right!"

Hermione pouted.

Her mother is the same as her.

"And the Ministry of Magic!"

"Wizengamot~"

"Finally, there is our Minister Fudge~"

The twins joked a little, but she was no longer angry in her heart.

Cedric suddenly pointed at the map, "Look, they're entering Lockhart's office!"

Vincent straightened up in an instant, leaned on Rolf's shoulder and looked down.

"Is this - are you following us?"

"Investigating Lockhart?" Hermione shook her little head, "I don't think they are doing this for everyone."

Then there are only private matters, and they can only be private matters.

"Are you going or not?"

"Of course I want to go!"

Third floor, Lockhart's office.

With the light from the tip of Harry's wand, Ron almost vomited when he saw the pictures on the wall.

Maybe it's because the slugs didn't spit it out, but those close-up mugshots are really disgusting.

"Shh-" Harry pointed to the closed door.

Ron nodded and followed him to the desk.

After opening the drawer, there were indeed two films inside.

Harry just picked up the film, but his hand suddenly let go.

"clatter--"

Ron hurriedly bent down and picked it up.

"Didn't you hear that voice?"

"Shh-" He glanced at the door, "I didn't hear anything."

Just when Harry thought it was an auditory hallucination, that creepy, suffocating, cold and vicious voice appeared again.

"Come...come...let me tear...you...tear you...kill you..."

He was startled and covered his mouth tightly.

Ron leaned closer and whispered, "What's wrong with you? We have to go back."

Harry tapped his chin and nervously walked back the way he came.

He didn't feel nervous until he closed the door.

Because the voice is still there, as if it comes from next to the ear.

"I must cut mine off." Ron was in a very good mood.

Harry was the complete opposite.

"You will definitely believe me, right?"

Ron thought of the outing to the Forbidden Forest last semester.

The shadow that only Harry could see, the sound that only Harry could hear...

"Gulu——" He felt a chill inexplicably.

"Harry, could it be——it was Quirrell——"

"I don't know, but that sound is too scary."

According to Dumbledore's explanation last semester, Quirrell, disguised as Snape, was possessed by Voldemort again, which is why he escaped from Azkaban.

"Let's go back first." Ron put the film in his pocket, "I always feel that this place is scary."

The higher he went, the weaker the sound became.

When he reached the 5th floor, it was so small that Harry couldn't hear it at all.

"Thank God——" He sighed, "Could those sounds be arranged by Lockhart in the office?"

"It's possible." Ron gave the command to the fat lady whose face was as black as charcoal.

It was wrong to go out at night, but she still opened the door.

"I heard from Fred and George that Draco has set up a lot of magic props in his dormitory."

Harry's mood improved a lot when he mentioned this.

Although there is no evidence, the twins must have been involved in invading the Slytherin dormitory and playing tricks on them many times.

Not long after they entered, six small figures suddenly appeared in the empty corridor outside.

Fred held the invisibility cloak and looked at Hermione who had removed the Disillusionment Charm.

"Merlin's big pants, when did you learn it?"

"Summer vacation."

He and George suddenly felt a little toothache.

After Vincent, Hermione also completely learned the Disillusionment Charm.

"Didn't he secretly give you extra lessons?"

"No."

The twins believed it completely.

With the two of them, the rise of Gryffindor is inevitable.
