Chapter 74: Unimpeded

Chapter 74: Unimpeded

After the darkness enveloped the entire Hogwarts castle, Jon stayed quietly on his wooden plank bed.

The air was a little muggy because there were no windows in the dormitory, and as summer turned to autumn, a person's mood could easily become tiresome.

Jon had no intention of sleeping, he was listening carefully to the fading footsteps outside the door, the sound of castle caretaker Dolohov's patrol at the start of the curfew.

After a week of being here, Jon had basically gauged the habits of the castle caretaker.

After the curfew began, he would start patrolling the underground floor, and after patrolling once, he would return to his office to rest, unless he heard any movement in the middle of the night that should not have been made, he would not go outside at all.

So after his footsteps completely disappeared and waited for about twenty minutes, Jon sat up from the bed. Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

He did not light the candle straight out, instead, he fumbled to get his robe with the inner pocket sewn on, and after pulling out the cloth bag he found in the morning, he slowly drew out his wand.

The inner pocket on the clothes was specially made for him by Dumbledore, and a powerful undetectable extension charm was affixed on it, which looked like an ordinary pocket on the surface, but actually had a lot of space inside.

With a light flick of the wand, a quill in front of the bed transformed into a scissor by using a transfiguration spell, and then he tucked the wand back again.

After taking the scissors and cutting the wick of the candle on the candlestick in the dark by two-thirds to ensure that the flame will be small enough, Jon lit the candle.

The light is very faint, but enough to illuminate the area in front of him.

With this tiny glow, Jon opened the cloth bag that he picked up over the boundary wall today, and one by one, he took out various potion materials.

Lacewing flies, Leeches, full-moon plucked powdered Fluxweed, bundles of Knotgrass, Bicorn Horn fine powder and the most important dry skin of the African Boomslang snake.

If all these materials boiled out to prepare a polyjuice potion, it would be enough for Jon to use two vials a day for a month. If there are even more materials, this same cloth bag with an undetectable extension charm could be able to hold them, but there is no way to ensure the medicinal properties of the products last for a long time.

Undetectable extension charm can only expand space, but could not freeze time, which is why Dumbledore didn't directly give Jon a school year sufficient amount of polyjuice potion before coming, if you did not use it for a long time, then the effectiveness of the pre-brewed polyjuice potion will also dilute, so Jon must be able to be self-sufficient in Hogwarts Castle.

After checking that there is no problem with the materials sent over, Jon was about to put things back into the cloth bag when his hand touched a cool, liquid-like thing inside the bag.

All the things except the invisibility cloak were put back into the cloth bag, then the bag was stuffed back into the inner pocket of his robe, and then Jon put on the robe and blew out the candles.

With the cloak of invisibility, his originally postponed plan can be advanced a little bit.

After carefully listening at the door for a minute or so to make sure there was no movement outside, Jon put on the cloak of invisibility and completely concealed his figure, then gently pushed the door open and walked out of his bunk room.

The corridor outside was dimly lit, the candelabra set in the wall pulsed with a faint flame, Jon moved carefully and pulled out his wand, then approached the iron door at the end of the corridor.

After the curfew began and Dolohov conducted his patrol throughout the underground floor, he would lock the iron door from outside, just like a prison cell, and would not come over to open it until the next morning, so without a wand, there would be no way for a mudblood student to open the door even if they're from seventh year unless a professor came to teach them a spell to unlock the door secretly.

But for Jon, who had a wand and had experienced a year of formal wizardry education, the locked iron door proved to be virtually useless.

He slowly pushed the tip of his wand out of his cloak of invisibility and tapped it against the locked door.

"Alohomora."

A faint unlocking charm incantation sounded, and the closed iron door let out a creak and was opened from the inside by Jon.

He walked out of the basement, then locked the door again from the outside, before turning around and heading for the stairs.

The entire Hogwarts castle except for the "whistling" wind, remained dead silent.

And tonight, a "mudblood" who used to be bound will be unhindered at this moment.
