Chapter 26 Open Sesame

"I think so." Albert couldn't help laughing, squinting at the passing ghost, and raised his hand to greet him: "Good morning, Sir Nicholas."

"Good morning boy, what's the matter?"

"Is Jazz free to let me take a photo?" Albert asked while raising his camera.

"Oh, okay!" Nick thought for a while and asked, "Do you need to pose?"

"No, come on, look this way." Albert adjusted an angle and clicked on Nick.

"Is it okay?"

"All right, thank you Sir Nicholas."

"You're welcome, then I'll go first!" Nick quickly drifted away.

Angelina came over to see what Albert had taken, but there was nothing in the photos.

"It seems that Muggle cameras can't take pictures of ghosts. Perhaps, wizard cameras can." Albert wrote Sir Nicholas de Mimsy Popington on the back of the photo.

"It's a good thing you can remember his name." Angelina admired Albert's memory, at least she certainly couldn't remember this string of names herself.

"It's not the camera's problem." A voice sounded.

Albert turned his head and saw a beautiful red-haired girl just entering the auditorium. She found that several people were looking at her, and explained, "After the photo needs to use the correct developing potion, the people inside can move. Also, ghosts are spirits, they cannot be caught on camera."

After speaking, the girl walked to Ravenclaw's dining table.

"Wow, I really deserve to be a student of Ravenclaw, I know so much." George said exaggeratedly.

"It's really amazing." Albert said with emotion, and looked at Angelina and sent an invitation, "Would you like to go shopping with us to other places in the school after you finish eating?"

"Forget it." Angelina hesitated, but still refused, "I have an appointment with someone else."

"That's a pity." Albert picked up a fruit and gnawed while thinking about how to get the developing potion.

The number of students in the auditorium gradually increased, and most of them were freshmen. Perhaps because of the weekend, the senior students went to bed late, but the freshmen couldn't wait to visit the school.

After bidding farewell to Angelina, the four chatted and walked out of the auditorium. When they passed the foyer, they all noticed that Filch was holding the cat and staring at the four of them.

Albert stopped and found that there was an extra task prompt on his panel:

Maliciousness from administrators.

You have been targeted by Filch, the administrator of Hogwarts, and it is time to fight back. In the night tour, get rid of the pursuit of Filch, the administrator, and let him know that even if he targets you, he cannot catch you Any clues.

Reward: 1000 experience.

After reading the quest, the corner of Albert's mouth couldn't help twitching. He found that after coming to Hogwarts, the trigger panel quest seemed to become a bit more frequent.

"What's the matter?" Fred turned around and asked suspiciously.

"Nothing." Albert walked a few steps quickly to keep up with the team. The four of them passed through the damp viaduct, and he suddenly asked, "Do you know the incantation of the illusion spell?"

"What's that?" George asked suspiciously.

"It is said to be a kind of invisibility magic." Albert explained, "I read in a book that this kind of invisibility spell can make a disguised person or thing look like a chameleon."

"Sounds cool." George was excited about the spell, "If you can master it, you won't have to worry about getting caught when you wake up at night for night tours."

"I think so too, at least I don't need to worry about Filch." Albert nodded, he was going to go out at night after mastering the illusion spell.

"But how do we get the spell?" Fred was a little depressed, "Dad may know, but he certainly won't tell us."

"How about asking the professor?" Li suggested.

"For the time being, we can only go to the library to find it." Albert said, "Of course, if you can't find it, you can ask the spell professor, but I doubt whether he is willing to teach us this spell, after all, he may think of night tour. "

Several people looked at each other and sighed helplessly. If you can master this magic, it will be much more convenient to do many things in the future.

Albert stopped by the side of the viaduct, looking down with his hands on the railing. He still remembered that at the end of the novel, Harry Potter broke the old wand and threw it off the bridge.

That prodigal son.

The Elder Wand is a good thing, even if it is not used, it can be hidden in an unknown place.

That was the real artifact in the Harry Potter novels, and the other was the Sorcerer's Stone, so both good things were destroyed.

"In short, find the library first."

"Even if we find it, we probably won't be able to learn it for the time being?" Li said a little discouraged. He didn't forget that he didn't even master the simplest magic.

"Don't say such depressing words." Albert glanced at Li and said with contempt, "How do you think I master other magics?"

"How did you do it?" the twins asked curiously.

"Of course you have to spend a lot of time practicing, otherwise do you expect to learn it immediately?" Albert said angrily.

The four of them chatted about the Disillusionment Curse while walking. After wandering around the first floor of the castle for a long time, they found a few empty classrooms piled up with debris, and a place that seemed to be a secret passage, but none of them were opened. All four are very depressed.

"Most of the secret passages require specific passwords, or tap a special rhythm to open them." Albert explained to the three of them while walking, "If you want to find them, you can only try your luck, or ask other people who know the secret passages, but I don't know. I bet they won't tell us so easily."

"Transfiguration classroom." George reminded, "I remember Professor McGonagall is teaching Transfiguration."

Lee Jordan whispered: "I heard that this class is very difficult to learn."

"It's really a bit difficult." Albert also discovered this when he was studying by himself. It took him the most time to turn matches into needles, but after learning it, most of the transfiguration techniques actually became not that difficult.

Of course, it may also be related to his panel skills.

The four of them found the History of Magic classroom on the second floor of the castle. Fortunately, the classrooms were marked, otherwise they really didn't know where to find them.

"There is a wooden door here, I think it should be a secret passage." Lee Jordan excitedly pointed to the entrance hidden behind the stone statue.

"It seems to be locked." Albert pulled out his wand, and opened the wooden door in front of him with the Arahoo.

"Your spell has failed." Fred stretched out his hand and twisted it, but it still didn't open.

"I guess what password is needed to open it." Albert muttered.

"What do you think the password usually is?" Lee Jordan asked rhetorically.

"How could I know." Albert rolled his eyes at Li, thought for a while and said, "The most famous secret door command in the Muggle world is "Open Sesame". This story comes from Alibaba and the Forty Thieves."

Speaking of which, Albert's wand happened to knock on the wooden door.

The next moment, the wooden board on the door was torn off from the hinges, and it was about to be shattered into a pile of firewood.

The four of them couldn't help opening their mouths, their eyes almost protruding from their sockets, and they didn't realize what happened just now.
