16.chapter 16
The door slammed shut in front of Al's eyes, and he was dragged into a dark room. In front of him was a narrow door with a small window.
The next second through the window, Al saw Filch walking around the corner, his steps dragging. He stopped in front of the witch statue for a long time, and then slowly left with an oil lamp. As soon as he left, Al heard himself A muffled "Prank is over" came from behind.
The hand covering his mouth finally loosened up, and Al heard George's voice of relief in his ear. Yes, of course, the one who dragged him into his arms and still held him tightly and wouldn't let go was of course George.
"You don't have to cover me all the time and I won't make a sound, George," Al complained, "You're really rude."
"Oh, sorry." George apologized reflexively, still not realizing that he should let go; he had long hands and long legs, and Al only reached his chin. His whole body was wrapped in his arms, and he completely felt this Wei Sly's body temperature, "How did you know I was George?"
Al said sarcastically: "Because you are stupid."
George: ""
The stupid George finally remembered that he was still holding the little Slytherin in his arms, and quickly let go. Only then did Al see clearly that this was a small broom closet, and Fred was standing behind them. Alfred was sure that Fred had just put away the Marauder's Map. It was put away in Fred's robe, with one corner exposed. .
"Let's go out now" Al asked.
"Wait a little longer, Filch may come again." George made a silent gesture, and everyone fell silent. Sure enough, within five minutes, Filch came back from where he disappeared again, and met the One-Eyed Witch. I walked around the statue twice before leaving.
"He suspects there's something weird here, but he's a squib and can't figure it out for the rest of his life," George whispered.
"Thanks to him being a squib, otherwise we would have been in a lot of trouble." Fred answered.
"Why is Fred here too? Didn't I ask you to keep it a secret?" Al glared at Fred and asked rudely.
"It's just that I couldn't hide it from him, Al." George was a little frustrated. "I wanted to come secretly, but when I walked to the corridor, I found that he had followed me."
"Hey, little Al," Fred came over with a playful smile, "George and I are like the same person. If there is a secret that only he knows and I don't, it would be so unfair, right? And my mouth and George is just as strict, no matter what secrets you have, we will never tell them. If you are worried, we can make an unbreakable oath."
here we go again. Al had little interest in the Unbreakable Vow.
The three of them sneaked out of the broom room, Fred at the head, Al in the middle, and George at the end, and entered the secret passage one by one. After entering, Fred was still chattering: "I thought you wouldn't agree, Al, but it seems you have a bit of a risk-taking factor, right?"
Al did not deny it, but warned them: "Even if there is a branch here, I will not go in again. I advise you not to go in either. It is very dangerous there, more dangerous than the mysterious man."
Fred turned around, looked past Al, and exchanged a look with George.
They were wondering that since Al came from a family of black magic, he should call the mysterious man the Dark Lord.
Al didn't know what they were thinking, but the blatant exchange of glances between the two people annoyed him: "If you have any doubts about me, just say so."
This made Al angry, and George immediately got scared again: "I'm sorry, we are just that you are a Malfoy after all, well, do you understand what I mean?"
Al replied coldly: "The Malfoy family does not support Voldemort."
This undoubtedly means that the Malfoy family is at least Alris Malfoy's political stance. The twins did not exchange glances, but each understood the shock in the other's heart.
After all, they knew from birth that the Malfoy and Weasley families would not and could never hold the same political stance.
The next section of the road was silent. Soon, the three people climbed to the place where they saw the fork in the road last time, but this time, even if all three people lit their wands, they could only see one road in front of them.
Leading to Hogg
Maud.
"This is so weird."
Fred looked a little pissed off.
"Maybe it's only when Al and I come together that the derailment can occur," George said objectively.
"No, brother." Fred's face fell. "If that's the case, I'll never be able to see the place you went to."
George was silent for a moment. In this short silence, Al yawned greatly: "Excuse me, I'm exhausted. I have to go to class tomorrow. Please give me a break. I'm going back to sleep, okay?"
The twins had no choice but to crawl out again with Al. As he climbed Al, he yawned again and again, and it seemed that he was really sleepy.
However, as soon as George, who was walking at the front, poked his head out of the secret passage, he was stunned. Al was blocked behind and asked strangely: "What's wrong?"
"Al, why are you there?"
It's Harry Potter's voice.
Why did Harry appear in front of the one-eyed witch statue in the middle of the night?
George didn't have time to explain anything to Harry, so he quickly turned it out, and then took Al out. Al is really fed up with his height
In addition to Harry who stared at the three people who were turned out in shock, there was also a little witch following him. She looked angry, but as soon as her eyes touched Al, the anger turned into surprise: "Alris"
Al nodded politely to her: "Just call me Al."
"Come on, hurry up." George urged, "It's too late to explain the children, Filch is coming."
He didn't see them using the Marauder's Map, and Al could only attribute this to the instinct of the twins and Filch who had been battling wits for so long. A group of five young wizards ran towards the end of the corridor in a mighty manner, with Frey almost running at the end. No sooner had De turned the corner than they heard Filch's voice.
"No one, baby, did they go somewhere else, did you hear the noise?"
It was Filch talking to his cat. Hearing the sound, the other party seemed to be walking in their direction. The five little wizards hunched over and ran in an unknown direction as silently as possible.
Actually, Al wasn't too worried. After all, there were four Gryffindors here, and even if they were caught, they would be the ones with the worst points deductions.
George led a group of people and ran up a staircase. It was too dark here. Al couldn't see his feet clearly and tripped. George turned around and caught Al as if there were eyes on the back of his head. Then George was extremely He smoothly tucked Al under his arm, took a few long steps across the stairs and reached the corner.
Al: ""
To be honest, he was somewhat used to the tragedy caused by this height difference.
Unexpectedly, George and Al had just stepped onto the steps. After a dull sound, the stairs shook violently, and then the entire staircase slowly moved to the other side, and the end led to an unknown direction.
Harry and Hermione shouted in panic, and the next second they heard Filch's voice: "Who is there?"
Not caring much, the three little wizards who were trapped on the stairs had no choice but to run up the stairs. On the contrary, Al and George were safely safe in a dramatic way.
"What should we do?" Al asked in a panic. When it comes to breaking school rules, you still have to ask George.
"Don't worry, Fred will be fine with them." George patted Al's head and held his hand.
"What is this for?" Al asked.
"I'm afraid you'll fall again, little confused." George replied.
""
Al used all his strength to roll his eyes at George, who almost rolled his eyes into the Tianling Gai.
The two of them really ignored the little wizards and walked towards the Slytherin cellar. However, after taking a few steps, Al suddenly remembered something.
Merlin, Harry and the others went to the corridor on the third floor that was prohibited by Dumbledore's order during the opening ceremony.
The trap door guarded by the three-headed hellhound Louie
