I Have a Big Problem with My Hogwarts

Chapter 385: 382. Harry's Christmas Present

Seeing these things, Lynn naturally showed a smile on his face.

With these things, Hogwarts, a thousand-year-old school, completely belonged to him legally.

At the same time, after these contracts, Old John also sent a letter, which explained to him in detail some recent abnormal behaviors of the pure-blood family.

Including not wanting property but only gold galleons, and after getting the gold galleons, secretly purchasing something.

More than a dozen families are connected together, as if they are about to make a big move.

Of course, Lynn knows much more about what these pure-blood families are doing than Old John, so he wrote a special reply letter, asking Old John to concentrate on managing the already dominant Lengard company in the UK. He has his own arrangements.

There was no publicity about the transfer of the board of trustees.

Now, except for the eleven families who signed the agreement and old John Lynn, no one knew that the castle of Hogwarts had changed hands.

Lynn didn't intend to publicize it either, he just went to tell Dumbledore about it.

Although Dumbledore was a little surprised by this, it was not too surprising.

He knew very well what was left to him in Lynn's house, and it was not impossible if it was not easy to buy the whole of Hogwarts with that money.

Christmas is coming soon.

The weather is getting colder, and most of the young wizards put on thick robes this weekend, preparing to go out for the last Hogsmeade week in the first semester of this year.

Harry could still only watch Ron and Hermione go out together, and stay alone in the castle.

Hermione and the others comforted Harry before leaving, but Harry didn't seem as unhappy as the previous few times, but rather absent-minded.

"You can go to the library to read books when you have time. I remember that Professor McGonagall left us a lot of homework." Hermione urged.

But Ron and Harry clearly scoffed at her words.

"There are still three days before Professor McGonagall's class, so there is no need to rush homework," Ron said.

Harry didn't want to do any homework at this time, either.

"It's hard enough not being able to leave the castle, Hermione, stop talking about homework."

Hermione looked at them angrily.

"You are always like this, as if you can lose your head if you just learn a little more. Huh, but your good days are not long."

Harry and Ron didn't take Hermione's words to heart.

Snowflakes began to fall outside the castle. Harry said goodbye to Ron and Hermione who had surrounded him tightly, and then took a boring walk in the empty castle alone.

As Harry wandered the corridors of the fourth floor, he turned to see Fred and George peeking at him from behind a sculpture of a hunched one-eyed witch.

"What are you doing?" Harry asked curiously, "Why don't you go to Hogsmeade?"

"We are going to give you a little surprise before we leave." Fred said mysteriously, "Come here... This statue seems to be alive, Lynn has summoned her more than once"

He nodded to the empty classroom to the left of the old witch sculpture, and Harry followed Fried and George into it.

Before leaving, George winked and said to the statue of the blind and hunchbacked old witch: "I hope you don't sue Lynn."

The old hag looked at him with one eye and made no promises to him.

Fred closed the door gently and turned to look at Harry with a smile on his face.

"An advance Christmas present to you, Harry."

Fred happily pulled something out of his overcoat and put it on the table. It was a large, square, battered piece of parchment with nothing written on it.

Harry half suspected it was a joke from Fred or George, and just stared at it.

"what is that?"

"This is, this is the secret of our success." George patted the parchment lovingly.

"Here's a helper for you," said Fred, "but we decided yesterday that you need it more than we do."

"Anyway, we know it works," George said, "Leave it to you, last time because we really don't need it anymore."

"An old piece of parchment all I need?" Harry asked.

"An old parchment!" said Fred, closing his eyes and making a face, as if Harry had offended him mentally.

"George, explain to him."

George vividly explained to Harry how he and Fred had stolen the thing from Filch's office together.

"This is almost the biggest secret between me and George. No one knows that we have this thing." George said proudly.

Fred pointed it out, "No, you forgot about George, it was in this place three years ago, and Lynn saw us using it."

"Sorry, this matter is too long ago, I almost forgot, what problem did he seem to ask us for help at that time?"

"The abnormality taught in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class that year, yes, we told him about it."

Harry didn't find it too strange that Lynn knew about it too.

In his impression, Lynn was as omnipotent as Dumbledore.

"So what's the use of this parchment?"

"Oh, yes!" said Fred slyly, "this treasure has taught us more than the teachers at this school have taught us."

"You're fooling me, aren't you?" said Harry, looking at the worn parchment.

"Oh, is it?" said George.

He took out his wand, touched the parchment lightly, and said, "I solemnly declare that I have done no good."

Immediately, the thin ink spread out like a spider web around the point where George's wand touched. The ink lines connected with each other and stretched out to the corner of the parchment. The words began to appear on it, a large, curved cyan letter.

The most amazing thing is that those thin ink dots are moving, marking places and people in each place in small scrawled characters. Harry bent down to look at it in surprise. The small dot in the upper left corner showed Professor Dumbledore in his study Filch's cat, Mrs. Loris was walking up to the second floor, and Peeves was now bouncing up and down in the memorial room.

The whole of Hogwarts seemed to have completely opened up to him.

It even included all the secret passages outside the castle.

But now Harry didn't pay attention to the magical pictures on the map, but was attracted by the title at the top.
