Chapter 55 Normal phenomenon

When the four of them left the kitchen, their stomachs were already filled with cream cakes and milk tea, and the pockets under their robes contained custard biscuits and pies handed to them by the house elves.

"Curfew starts in ten minutes, we'd better get back to the break room."

As soon as they passed the hall, they were followed by the administrator's cat. Not long after Mrs. Norris ran away, Filch appeared in front of them.

For some reason, Fred and George felt inexplicably guilty when they saw Filch approaching.

Fred involuntarily reached into the pocket on the right side of the robe, where was the Marauder's Map they stole from the administrator's office.

"You two..." Filch stopped the Weasley brothers, and grinned maliciously: "The confinement will be at seven o'clock tomorrow night, and the content is to wipe all the trophies in the prize showroom. It can bring you some sense of honor in the academy, let’s say that Gryffindor’s score fell to the last place again.”

None of the four spoke, they stood there quietly and listened to Filch finish speaking.

Of course, a piece of pie stuffed in someone's mouth seems to affect the atmosphere a bit.

"Now, go back to your lounge. Don't let me see you wandering around the castle after the curfew, otherwise it won't be as simple as confinement." Filch turned and left after saying some threatening words.

"What a nasty old guy." George made a rude gesture towards Filch's leaving back.

"I remember that you seem to be going to teach us the descaling spell." Fred looked sideways at Albert and said with a wink.

"It's too late, you can't learn the descaling spell in one day." Albert took out his pocket watch to check the time, and walked towards the moving stairs.

"Don't worry, you're just wiping the trophies in the trophy room, it's better than washing the chamber pot, right? Think about that unlucky William, and there are two of you, you can finish wiping it soon." Li Qiaodan stretched out his hand and patted George's shoulder comforted.

However, this tone sounds like a kind of gloating.

"Get out, you mean guy!" Fred glared at Li Jordan angrily, turned his head and said to Albert, "Can you use the descaling spell to help..."

"Transformation Club." Albert interrupted suddenly.

"What?" Fred didn't understand for a moment.

"He said that the Transfiguration Club will be tomorrow night, which happens to be seven o'clock." Li Qiaodan stretched his arms around Fred's shoulders and comforted him, "So, give up the dying struggle!"

While talking, the four of them reached the third floor through moving stairs, and then passed through several secret passages, turning east and west to reach the eighth floor of the castle.

While passing a certain corner, he almost bumped into Professor Bud Brod of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.

"Good evening, Professor Broad." Albert was the first to greet the other party.

"Good evening, Mr. Anderson." Professor Broad glanced over the four of them, and then fell on Albert again. After examining him for a while, he continued, "It's almost curfew, we It is recommended that you return to the lounge as soon as possible."

"Professor Brod actually knows you!" After the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor left, Fred looked at Albert in surprise.

Professor Broad is no longer young, but he can still remember Albert in a short period of time. You must know that they have only met a few times.

"I don't know too well." Albert looked suspiciously towards the location of the Room of Requirement. He just seemed...as if he saw a slight change in that wall.

Besides, Professor Bud Brod looked at himself a little strangely just now, as if he was looking at something?

"Speaking of which, there is no secret passage behind this tapestry." Li Qiaodan pointed to the tapestry where the giant monster beat Barnabas silly and said to the three, "At noon, I even looked through it on purpose, but found nothing. .”

It is not surprising that Lee Jordan would have such an idea. There is no way, who made most of the tapestry in Hogwarts hide secret passages.

In fact, Lee Jordan’s guess was correct. This tapestry does hide secrets, but it’s not behind the tapestry, but on the wall opposite the tapestry, where the Room of Requirement is located.

It's just that most students don't know it exists.

When they came to the portrait of the fat lady at the end of the hallway on the eighth floor, they were surprised to find that the lady was humming softly.

"Gibberish." George said the password.

The fat lady didn't open the door, but continued humming. Is this going to let the four of them be free listeners?

"Gibberish," Fred continued.

The fat lady glared at them dissatisfied, as if she was very unhappy to be disturbed, she reluctantly opened the entrance to the lounge.

"I dare say she has no singing talent at all." Albert couldn't help complaining when he entered the lounge.

In the lounge at this time, there are still a few people doing their homework sporadically.

"Where did you just go?" Charlie in pajamas came over and said to several people, "There is Quidditch training tomorrow afternoon, you can go to the Quidditch pitch after 6:30, I will give you half an hour to practice Intensive training."

"Sorry Charlie, I'm afraid we can't go." George said helplessly.

"Why?"

"We need to go to Filch's place for confinement!" Fred looked hopeless.

"What about you?" Charlie looked at Lee Jordan, thought for a while and sighed softly: "Forget it, you guys can come together next time you practice! If you want to officially join the Quidditch team next year, you should Take the time to practice well so that you have an advantage over others as a player."

Not long after Charlie left, Percy came in. He had just finished his homework.

"Don't nag Percy, we were told by Charlie just now." George said to his brother angrily.

"Let's go first." Albert greeted Li Qiaodan and walked towards the stairs.

"Don't provoke Filch, it won't do you any good!" Percy Weasley glared at Fred and George, "You made us fall to the last place in scoring..."

"...If you continue to be mischievous like this, and dare to wander around the castle during the curfew, I will write to my mother." George disguised his voice as Percy, and told the dormmates in a joking tone. thing.

"As far as I know, Gryffindor hasn't won the Academy Cup for several years, so it's our fault if we lose points."

"Isn't it normal that Gryffindor didn't win the Academy Cup?" Albert said solemnly.

"Wow, you really think so too." George smiled and looked at Albert, with an expression that you really understand us.

"Don't look at me like that, it's a fact!" Albert couldn't help but rolled his eyes and said, "Unless we can win three Quidditch matches, the Academy Cup is nowhere in sight."

"What you said makes sense." George nodded in agreement.

"Percy must know, he just wanted to find an excuse to teach us!" Fred snorted softly, very disdainful.

Albert squinted at the task prompt that just appeared:

Gryffindor's glory.

Gryffindor House has missed the House Cup for five years. It's time to show your true strength and help Gryffindor win the House Cup once.

Reward: 1 skill point.

After Albert finished the task, the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch. Is this still a task for people to complete?

Well, there seems to be no time limit.

Albert can wait until the savior Potter comes on stage, and lie down for a while.

That's a good idea.
