The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 200 Who's Doing It

boom!

The sound of the bookshelves toppling was enough to wake up the entire castle.

At this moment, the three of Fred, who were playing a game of mouse and cat with Filch on the third floor of the castle, were also startled by the loud noise, and they all stopped to listen to the surrounding noises.

Originally, Filch, who was still chasing a few people, also stopped and looked at the direction of the sound in astonishment.

"The sound seems to be coming from the direction of the fifth floor." Filch muttered to himself, he immediately turned around and rushed towards the library.

"What happened to that noise just now?" George couldn't hold back his curiosity.

"I don't know, it may be made by Albert, go back to the lounge first." Fred said immediately: "Go back quickly before the sound just now leads the other professors."

"Quick!" George shouted, and the three started running down the corridor at full speed, and they had to get back to the common room before the professors showed up. Because Albert had told them that the professors at Hogwarts had the ability to see through the Disillusionment Charm on them.

After running through one corridor after another, the three went to the seventh floor through the secret passage next to the corridor. On the way, Lee Jordan said again: "Are we going to the meeting point? What about Albert?"

"That guy must have run before us."

"Go straight back to the common room."

In fact, what they did was quite correct. Not long after the sound was heard, several professors in the castle were awakened by the sound and came to check the situation.

In the corridor, the portraits in the aisle ran back and forth, trying to figure out what was going on.

By the time Filch checked the fifth floor, Albert had already fled the crime scene and moved faster than them.

Before leaving, Albert did not forget to close the entrance to the library.

It was for this reason that Filch couldn't find the crime scene for a while. He only knew where the sound was coming from, but when he checked in the past, he found nothing.

The culprit responsible for all this is hurriedly running to the Gryffindor common room.

Albert tried not to make a sound,

But the people in the portrait had already been awakened by the sound just now. After hearing the slight footsteps, they all turned their faces curiously and looked at the empty corridor.

After going upstairs, Albert walked halfway down the corridor, then lifted off a tapestry on the wall and walked up a narrower staircase, which was a short cut to the eighth floor.

As for Fred and the others, they have a Marauder's map, so they shouldn't be caught, but Albert isn't worried about their safety at all.

When he came near the entrance of the common room, he did not dispel the magic on his body, and waited for Fred to wait here.

A few minutes later, a few people arrived in a hurry, looked at Albert who was still waiting outside, puzzled, and asked, "Why don't you enter the lounge?"

"The fat lady will not open the door for us when we are invisible." Albert reminded: "Come with me and go to the room to rest first. Just in case, we should not be seen."

The three of Fred were confused, but they still followed Albert to the Room of Requirement. In this case, they were willing to trust Albert's judgment. After all, Albert's brain was much better than theirs. He did this. There must be a reason.

On the other side, Filch was patrolling the library, because the sound just now was indeed a bit of a sound of collapsing into the library's bookshelves. However, when Filch entered the library, he did not find any signs of collapse of the bookshelves.

Yes, no, even in the forbidden area, there is still no sign of the bookshelf collapsing, as if the sound had never occurred just now.

At this moment, Filch knew that he had been tricked, yes, he had been tricked, just like the helmet stuck to the floor on the fourth floor, and the damn big shit thrown in the hallway, including here The sound, all of them were someone playing a trick on themselves.

Yes, those bastards he was chasing just now, Filch vaguely guessed who they were.

The Gryffindor twins, although there is no real evidence, but Filch has a hunch that the two of them did it.

"Felch? What happened?"

Snape walked into the library with a gloomy face in a grey pyjamas shirt.

"I just heard a noise and came over to check the situation. I think it is likely that some students made it on purpose." Filch turned to look at Snape and whispered: "I was just chasing them, There are several students wandering around the castle in the middle of the night, Professor."

"Students, very good, we will catch them." Snape looked around the library and stepped into the forbidden area to take a look, and found no signs of collapsed bookshelves.

"What's the matter?" Professor McGonagall walked in quickly. She was wearing a plaid dressing gown and a hair net. She glanced at the library with a serious look. She obviously thought that the sound just now was a bit like a bookshelf collapsing. sound.

"Someone was in the library just now, in the restricted area." Filch said immediately: "I was just looking for a few students who were wandering around the school in the middle of the night. They should be in a group, and they are probably... A student of Gryffindor."

"Do you have any evidence?" Professor McGonagall asked with a frown.

"What's going on here." Smith appeared outside the door wearing a bronze pajamas, "Is this a pajama party?"

"Someone made a loud noise here, professor. We suspect that it was made by students. There are several students wandering around the school tonight." Filch said in a low voice, and he rarely spoke loudly in front of professors.

"Felch, you just said it was probably done by a Gryffindor student?" Professor McGonagall demanded. "Is there any evidence?"

"You can ask the gatekeeper at the entrance of Gryffindor." Snape said suddenly. He'd love to see Hogwarts students get unlucky and lose points.

"Well, that's a good idea." Filch nodded.

Professor McGonagall frowned slightly, but ultimately did not object.

Several professors went to the eighth floor one after another, and found the Gryffindor gatekeeper Fat Lady at the entrance of Gryffindor.

"Ma'am, did anyone just enter the lounge?" Professor McGonagall asked.

"No." The fat lady said.

"Has any students left?" Snape asked.

"Yes." The fat lady said.

"Who are they?" Filch asked eagerly.

"I don't know, they are invisible," said the fat lady.

"Just look at who's not in the dormitory and you'll know who's been wandering the castle just now," Snape suggested maliciously.

"This will wake up sleeping students." Professor McGonagall obviously disagreed with this approach.

"Only senior students can use the illusion spell." Professor Smith suddenly reminded, "I think they didn't enter the common room, they should still be somewhere in the castle, we will find those naughty students. ."

Smith obviously doesn't agree with waking up other students. However, in fact, a large number of students have been awakened by the sound just now.

"I'll find them." Filch gritted his teeth.

However, Filch and several other professors searched the castle several times, even searching for the secret passage, but found nothing.

okay!

Actually, there are two scapegoats.

A Ravenclaw girl and a Hufflepuff boy become scapegoats, and the couple are actually dating in a secret passageway, only to be caught by Filch who suddenly breaks in.

Fifty points were deducted from each.

But after questioning, it was clearly not the group Filch was looking for.

As for the Gryffindor students Filch was looking for?

Almost the entire castle has been turned upside down by the professors, but no trace of the Gryffindor students has been found.

No way, no one will let them know that there is a hidden room on the eighth floor of the castle, its name is the Room of Requirement.
