Drinking black tea calmly at Hogwarts

Chapter 558 Missing



After dinner, Zhang Xu returned to Hogwarts.

It was getting late at this time, and there were no wandering students in the castle. If he wanted to go out for a walk at this time, he had to fight wits with Filch.

Not long after Zhang Xu walked up the stairs, he saw two students hurried past him and ran upstairs. The two students seemed to be in a hurry, and they didn't notice Zhang Xu when they passed by him. Then came Filch's shout.

As Filch's cry faded away, the castle fell into silence again.

After leaving the stairs, Zhang Xu walked into a corridor.The moment he stepped into the corridor, the originally pitch-black corridor was suddenly illuminated by candles from candlesticks on the wall.

Shortly after the start of this year, a group of students submitted a proposal to Professor McGonagall to upgrade the lighting system of Hogwarts Castle.In the plan, firstly, the candles used for lighting in the castle were replaced with special candles with higher brightness, and then the magic was set so that the candles in the candlesticks would automatically light up only when people walked by.

Professor McGonagall approved the plan without much thought, and it took the group of students a month to refit the lighting systems in all the corridors and stairs in the castle.

In this way, the students are usually happy, but the students who play hide-and-seek with Filch at night are tragic.

Over the years, the students of Hogwarts have made various refined decorations to the castle.

An originally empty classroom on the fifth floor has now been opened as a small but well-equipped gym.The gym was established by a student from a Muggle family who sold sports equipment. His ambition was to sell the unsalable fitness equipment at home to wizarding families.

There are not a few Muggle-born students who have the same ambition, but because Hogwarts cannot use electronic products, most students who want to start a business in Hogwarts want to cry without tears.

But not all proposals for renovations, remodeling and stealth startups are approved by the principal.

For example, the most ambitious one is a student surnamed Laws. He originally planned to open a car experience hall on the edge of the Forbidden Forest, promised to provide huge sponsorship to Hogwarts every year, and hired Hogwarts professors with high salaries They formed a team to participate in the research and development of the car.After Dumbledore's careful consideration of this plan, he returned it on the grounds that the time had not come.

For another example, a student planned to build a standard-sized swimming pool behind the castle. This plan was immediately suppressed in both the Dumbledore era and the McGonagall era. Not half a point.

And the person who was crushed to death at the second time was Zhang's plan to install escalators in the castle, which Zhang expressed incomprehension.

Unlike the deserted corridors, the common room in the Eagle Yard was quite lively tonight, perhaps because it was the weekend.

A few students gathered around the table tennis table and used their magic wands to control the rackets. In order to prevent these students from slipping and causing the table tennis balls or rackets to fly out and hit people, a circle of shapeshifting balls was erected around the table. Wang, if he didn't know, he would have thought it was a dark table tennis match like fighting with an iron cage.

In other places in the common room, students chatted together in twos and threes, or sat alone on the sofa reading a book, and if they were too noisy, they used magic spells to plug their ears.

"Here, maple syrup trifle pudding."

&n

bsp; Zhang Xu put a piece of pudding he packed from the coffee shop in the afternoon on the table in front of Luna who was reading a book.

Anthony and the others who were sitting behind Zhang Xu saw that there was something to eat, pulled Zhang Xu's robe, and stretched out their palms to him.

ㄟㄟ ̄e ̄ㄟ

"Whoever sees it has a share." x3

'_ゝ`づ

Then Zhang Xu threw three blood lollipops to them.

Although he still has two puddings, it is impossible to give them to them. What if there is a scene of "two puddings kill three students" in the common room?

At this moment, a guardian cat broke into the common room and came in front of Zhang Xu.

"Go to the principal's office immediately." Professor McGonagall's voice came from the patron saint meow.

Zhang Xu didn't dare to neglect, and immediately rushed to the principal's office.When he went to the principal's office, he found it was full of people.The three deans other than Lupine were there, as well as Hagrid, Black, Scarlet, Moody, Filch and other professors and staff, as well as the two students who were in a hurry to get on their way just now.

Everyone present seemed a little anxious, the portraits of previous principals on the wall were whispering to each other except for Dumbledore who was still dozing off.

Zhang Xu sat next to Scarlet, and then asked Professor McGonagall: "Professor, what happened?"

Before Professor McGonagall could answer, the fat friar, the headless Nick and Peeves entered the office through the wall.

"We searched in the Forbidden Forest, but we didn't find her." The fat monk said to Professor McGonagall.

Nick held his head as a hat, gave a gift and said, "We didn't find her in the lake."

While flying up and down in the air, Peeves said, "I didn't see that poor girl in the secret passage. She might have been blown to ashes by the mushrooms."

After Peeves finished speaking, he flew out through the window.

Peeves had just disappeared when Lupine walked in with Neville's father, Frank Barton, head of the Auror Office.

As soon as Frank came in, he said to Professor McGonagall: "We didn't find her in Hogsmeade. I have arranged for the Aurors to search in and around Hogsmeade. If they find anything, they will notify me as soon as possible. "

Lupine continued: "I have asked the Muggle government for help, and they agreed to let the Muggle police help find her."

At this time, Zhang Xu understood that a girl from Hogwarts was missing.

Just judging from the expressions of everyone, the missing girl should not be Harry who is out of play, nor someone close to Harry.

And now there are two students from the Snake Academy also appearing here, so the missing girl should be a student from the Snake Academy.

Just judging from the information that has been fed back so far, there is no trace of her inside or outside of Hogwarts.

Sure enough, Professor McGonagall said to Zhang Xu who had just arrived: "I didn't want to bother you who hadn't recovered, Mr. Zhang. But you also heard just now that a student from Hogwarts disappeared, and you contacted her."

Now that Zhang Xu knew who was missing, he stretched out his hand and knit his brows and asked helplessly, "Is the missing Miao Li Lawrence?"
