Hogwarts Asylum

The school hospital fell into silence. How to prove the existence of magic to a person who does not believe in magic when he is unable to perform magic is really difficult.

When everyone was at their wits' end, Sauron was holding Orolin across his arms on the broken ship in the sea of ​​​​spirit, while Gandalf looked at the sea with a calm face.

"It seems that someone just triggered the trap that Orolin set before." Sauron murmured, looking at the gloomy sky.

"Maybe Dumbledore or Snape, they are the only two who know Legilimency at Hogwarts."

"Why is this time different from last time?"

"Who knows, maybe it's because we saw Delphi last time and this time it's just us."

"Are you sure this will work?" Sauron looked at Gandalf, the usual cynicism in his eyes had long since disappeared.

"Who knows—" Gandalf smiled calmly.

"How about I come first?"

"I'll go first, I'm quite free anyway."

"Aren't you afraid that after you leave, I will jump down with Olorin?"

"Just you?" Gandalf glanced at Sauron, "Of the three of us, you are the one who fears death the most."

Sauron fell silent.

"After I leave, if Orolin hasn't woken up yet..." Gandalf hesitated, but ultimately did not say the rest of his words.

"Then I'd be bored staying here alone..." Sauron said with a smile.

Gandalf nodded and said nothing more. He looked around one last time and then looked up at the sky.

The sky was gray, as if it was going to rain, but this was not reality, and the dark clouds were just a figment of imagination.

"gone."

Gandalf waved his hand, then leaped for life into the sea.

Just as expected, Gandalf was like a marshmallow dropped into a frying pan without any splashing.

Sauron looked at the sea, which had not changed at all, and then at Orolin, who was still motionless in his arms, and said with a smile, "You died in vain, haha."

"Then..." Sauron gently placed Orolin on the only remaining foothold in the boat.

"It's my turn——"

……

In the Potions classroom, Neville carefully divided the previously ground tooth powder into three parts, then poured one part into the white liquid in the crucible, then picked up the stirring rod and stirred clockwise.

Hermione encouraged Neville from the side: "Yes, stir clockwise, you will succeed soon, Neville."

Hermione's voice was not quiet, but she was not worried about attracting Professor Snape.

Because just now, Professor Snape was called away by Madam Pomfrey from the school hospital. Although she didn't know what happened, the atmosphere in the classroom became obviously relaxed.

"I want to become stronger, I want to become stronger..." Neville stirred while imagining how he would overturn Snape with super strength.

On the other side, Ron finally cleaned up his face. Although Snape had just deducted 5 points for violating the professor's requirements, he was not discouraged. After all, if the moonstone was not added at the end, he could already guarantee Add two extra materials without failing.

Moreover, Snape is not in the classroom now and may not come back before get out of class is over. This means that what Snape said before, no matter whether he fails or not, he must drink the potion he made cannot be carried out. , then there is nothing to worry about.

At this time, Ron was folding his arms and watching Harry carefully pour the locust juice into the cauldron.

“Every time you add a material beyond the base material, the mixing direction is opposite to the previous one.”

"I know!" Harry said angrily. Although Snape left the classroom and he felt relieved, there was another Ron buzzing like a fly next to him, just like before in the Charms class. , it’s really annoying.

"When you add leech juice, you should imagine that you have both great strength and a soft and flexible body." Ron heard the impatience in Harry's tone, so he said the last thing and went to instruct other students.

At this time, on the table not far behind Harry, a small gray-white mushroom cloud steamed up.

Ron looked over, and sure enough, Seamus had another accident.

Ron looked around. There was Hermione next to Neville. Looking at Hermione's movements, she was instructing Neville. Although there was Malfoy next to Seamus, Malfoy himself was also making potions, so Seamus was now Guidance is definitely needed.

So, Ron quickly walked towards where Seamus was sitting.

"Seamus, did you add a third ingredient to the crucible?" Ron said pretending not to care.

"No, I only added moonstone." Seamo said, staring at his face that was blackened by smoke.

When Ron heard this, he immediately pushed his hair back with his hands, and then said with his hands behind his back: "I have to talk about you, Seamus. Although Snape is partial, the method he taught is really effective. That's it." , you can also blow up the crucible, did you do it on purpose?"

Seamus, who had a dark face, rolled his eyes: "Don't talk nonsense, Ron, you also blew up the crucible."

"No, no, no, we are different, Seamus." Ron shook his head and said, "I think that's because when adding the moonstone powder to the potion containing valerian, you have to reduce the amount, otherwise the ingredients that also have the same calming effect will There was a conflict, Snape said it before leaving."

"That's not an explosion." Simo said, pouring the remaining black paste in the crucible into the drain for handling the medicine.

"Maybe he added too little spring water." Draco said silently at this time. He skipped making the basic strength potion and successfully completed the experiment of adding additional valerian.

Seeing the bottle of green potion in Malfoy's hand that exuded no trace of impurities under the light, Ron knew that he was not good enough and simply walked away.

After a few more clumsy Gryffindor seats, Ron returned to his own seat feeling empty.

At this point Harry also finished his potion.

"Why can't they listen to other people's suggestions?" Ron said angrily, "Although I blew up the crucible, it was because I added three kinds of materials! Three kinds!"

Harry put down the brown potion in his hand, glanced at Ron, and said, "Maybe they just don't want to be disturbed while making the potion."

……

In the school hospital, both Catherine and Flitwick, two people who had no research on mental and soul magic, were sent back to class by Dumbledore. Madam Pomfrey also temporarily returned to her dispensary. At this time, only Dumbledore was left in the ward. Bledo and the newly arrived Snape.

Looking at Orolin who was motionless on the hospital bed with his eyes open, Snape frowned and said, "You mean, he doesn't believe in magic subconsciously?"

"I think so," Dumbledore replied softly.

"I'm afraid you have fallen into his trap." Snape recalled what Oralin said at the beginning of school. "Although I told you before, Oralin may have surpassed you in Legilimency. You None of the things he did can be hidden from him, but what I didn't tell you is that his achievements in Occlumency are equally extraordinary."

"I also understand this. After all, according to Nico, the two kinds of magic are actually connected in the end." Dumbledore nodded, "But when I invaded his mind before, the process was very smooth."

"Then it means you've fallen into a trap." Snape shook his head, "Based on what I know about him, he will definitely build multiple layers of memories in his mind, and what you see is most likely just one of them. "

"Ow—"

White, who was late, shouted and jumped on the hospital bed.

It had gone hunting after Draco left, and after discovering that all the people on the list that Eurolin had given it were in class, it returned to the school hospital out of boredom, planning to find Madam Pomfrey to see if it could She asked her to help make a bottle of feather softener to fill the bottle that Saruman was missing. Unexpectedly, as soon as she arrived in the ward, she saw Orolin lying there again.

On the hospital bed, White put away his claws and slapped Eurolin's face with two flesh pads. In the past, when Eurolin fell asleep, he would be beaten after just a few pats. But today, just like the previous days, Eurolin was beaten. Lin didn't react at all.

"Ow!!"

White yelled again and turned to look at Snape.

"I didn't do it." Snape explained with a straight face. Of course he knew this cat and raccoon. After all, they had been with him day and night for seven years, and he was considered a half-roommate.

"Ow!"

White jumped out of bed, walked to the door of the ward, and glanced at Snape again, as if gesturing for him to follow.

Snape thought for a while. He had seen how clever this nugget was. Maybe it knew something. So he looked at Dumbledore and said, "I'll go with it to see."

After White brought Snape to the consultation room, he pulled out a suitcase from the corner, opened the suitcase skillfully with his two paws, got in, and then poked his head out and stared at Snape.

"Should I go in too?" Snape asked. To be honest, he didn't really want to get into Orolin's suitcase. He always felt that there would be many traps for him in there.

White didn't care about this. It immediately remembered the black book that made Oluolin unconscious before. However, the black book was sealed by Oluolin in a box mixed with fairy iron. It couldn't move the box. Said it couldn't be opened yet.

It just wanted this black hair to try it out.

In the consulting room, White stared at Snape. Snape hesitated for a while, but walked over.

In the suitcase, Snape walked down the stairs, and a strong aroma of tea hit his nostrils. He came to a spacious room with tall cabinets placed everywhere. The cabinets were filled with various tea leaves, and Strange tea sets, Snape only stopped for a moment on one of the tea sets made like a rockery, and then followed White out of the room.

Outside the house, a huge transparent ball hangs in the sky. Inside the ball is a burning flame for lighting. There is a layer of lush green grass on the ground and a path paved with cobblestones.

Snape followed White all the way and saw the large room with signs such as "Library", "Laboratory", "Practice Room", "Utility Room" and "Memory Hall", and became somewhat curious.

Finally, White came to a stop outside a room with a "Showroom" sign. He stood up with his strength, skillfully popped out a claw and poked the keyhole on the door a few times, and the door opened with a sound.

Walking into the showroom, what you see are rows of low transparent glass cabinets filled with various alchemy items. Among them, in the middle of the showroom is a hammer that Snape is very familiar with. A bone-crushing hammer that Orolin often used when he was in school.

"Ow—"

Seeing Snape staring at the bone-crushing hammer as if in a daze, White howled and motioned for him to follow him quickly.

Snape came to his senses and quickly followed.

After passing a cabinet with more than a dozen wands, White came to a box. He patted the box and looked at Snape.

"What's in it?"

Snape looked at the box with some doubts. He had seen this box in seventh grade. At that time, O'Loughlin took it back to Hogwarts after taking a long vacation, and often held it in his arms in a daze.

At that time, many Slytherins suspected that Orolin had been dumped by his date. A Slytherin who had a crush on Orolin for a long time took the opportunity to rush into their dormitory and wanted to do something, but was interrupted by Orolin. Legs.

"Ouch——" White yelled again.

Snape had no choice but to pull out his wand, point at the box and recite the incantation - "Open the Alaho Hole".

However, the unlocking spell that used to be all-powerful in the past had no effect on the box at all.

Snape frowned and knelt down to observe the box carefully. The surface of the box was glowing with a silvery light. If he guessed correctly, the material used to make the box contained goblin iron.

"This should be an alchemical lock." Snape said. "Without the key, it is basically impossible to open it."

"Ouch -" White rolled his eyes in a humane manner, his eyes seeming to say, if you have the key, what do you want to do?

"We just have to see if Dumbledore can open it." Snape sighed. Although he was familiar with the alchemical lock made by Orolin, the alchemical lock on it was not made by Orolin.

As for using brute force to open the box... forget it, the box mixed with fairy iron is least afraid of brute force, unless you use strong fire to open it, but using strong fire means that the contents in the box will also be destroyed.

White thought for a moment, and since the black hair was useless, the old man with the white beard should be, so he nodded.

Snape immediately held both sides of the box and lifted it. Unexpectedly, it was heavy. He simply let go and cast a levitating spell on the box, then waved his wand to direct the box back the way it came.

When entering the room at the entrance, Snape looked back at the room with the "Hall of Memory" sign.

In the school hospital, Dumbledore walked around the box and said, "This kind of box is usually used by alchemists to store important information. Are you sure you want to open it?"

Snape glanced at White, who was squatting on Orolin's chest.

"There might be something in there that could wake Orolin up."

White nodded, and then patted O'Loughlin's chest to express his relief.

After Dumbledore thought for a while, he put his hand on the lock of the box. He didn't see any incantation, and only heard the alchemy lock in the box click open.
