Chapter 1017： Room of Requirement

  Chapter 1017 Room of Response

  After returning from Hogsmeade, Harry found himself suffering from insomnia again, and besides having that damned nightmare, Cho had distracted most of his energy.

  Harry knew Hermione was right, and unless Cho dumped Cedric, he had no chance. This incident made Harry extremely irritated, especially when he saw Cedric and Cho holding arms and acting intimately in the corridor, Harry wanted to go up and separate them, which also caused Harry to use sedatives more frequently recently .

  Harry complained a little about why Hermione brought up this matter, and slowly forgetting is sometimes a good choice.

   "When are you going to start?"

Harry turned his head and asked Hermione, he needed other things to distract himself, and it was a good choice to devote most of his energy to Quidditch training, but after recently starting to study the "Guide to Self-Defense", Harry hoped to find A place to practice magic.

   "Everyone is free on Thursday." Hermione looked around to make sure no one was overhearing, then lowered her voice and said, "Fred and George promised to take me to their secret base today."

   "Can we go?" Ron interrupted.

   "I think it should be fine."

  As soon as Hermione finished speaking, Umbridge screamed angrily in the hall.

   "How dare they!"

   Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of newspapers being torn to shreds, and a large piece of whispering. Everyone looked at the toad on the teacher's seat with strange eyes.

   "What's wrong with Toad?"

  Harry looked suspiciously at the back of Umbridge who walked away in a panic.

   "You haven't read today's newspaper yet!" Ron suppressed his laughter, and handed today's "Daily Prophet" to Harry.

   "Is the toad in the newspaper?"

  Harry took the "Daily Prophet" and spread it out in front of the dining table. When he was about to read the first edition, he heard Ron beside him say.

   "No, it was actually the Daily Prophet."

  Harry finds out that the Daily Prophet is actually on the headlines of his own newspaper, because the Diagon Alley headquarters of the Daily Prophet has been blown up by a bunch of Howler letters.

   This incident made the newspaper a hot topic in the British magic circle.

   Some said they were dissatisfied with the false reports of the "Daily Prophet", while others said they were protesting against the newspaper's beautification of Umbridge.

   "Yes, I happened to pass by, and I was almost scared out of my wits!"

  According to the recollection of one of the parties involved.

  He had never seen so many Howler letters exploding together.

  At that time, someone was setting off fireworks, and a large number of magical fireworks rushed into the headquarters of the "Daily Prophet", and the scene was very spectacular.

   However, this matter is not over yet.

  When everyone's attention was attracted by the roaring letter and fireworks, Umbridge's head appeared again, and he sang the song of the toad, which many people have heard by now.

   Umbridge is well known by everyone now, and the nickname of that pink toad probably won't be taken off in this lifetime.

   It's no wonder Umbridge was so angry. No matter how you look at this matter, it looks like a Hogwarts student is playing tricks. At least the toad song was passed down from Hogwarts.

   "...every insider who provides valid clues will receive a reward of 100 Galleons. This is a huge reward..." Ron muttered, seeming to be considering whether to report Fred and George. Although there was no evidence, Ron felt that this matter had something to do with the two of them.

   "Do you really think that someone can get this reward?"

Fred and George appeared out of nowhere, glanced at the open newspapers, and said contemptuously: "These rewards are like farting. If they don't want to give you, even if they provide effective clues, they can still drag you down." , I won’t give you a penny. This thing is purely for looking good, don’t look at me like that, Albert’s 10,000 Galleon reward was lost by the Ministry of Magic last time, do you think you’re more powerful than Albert?”

   "The Ministry of Magic owes Albert 10,000 Galleons?" Harry and Hermione were very surprised when they heard the words, "When did this happen?"

   "When we threw Peter Pettigrew into Azkaban." Fred explained, "The Ministry of Magic made excuses to take the money, and didn't give a Galleon."

   "Because Peter Pettigrew didn't offer a reward?" Hermione asked tentatively.

"No, 10,000 Galleons is a bounty for catching Sirius. It has nothing to do with Peter Pettigrew. Now you understand what **** the Ministry of Magic is?" George greeted Hermione: "Okay, let's not talk about this, just keep up .”

  Harry and Ron looked at each other, got up and followed.

   "Where are we going?" Ron demanded.

   "Shut up Ron."

  After entering the secret passage, Fred stared at Ron with disgust: "Do you want everyone to know what we are going to do?"

   "What are we doing here?" Ron muttered disapprovingly.

"You should keep your mouth shut first, instead of preparing to be that leaker." Fred and George pulled out their wands from the pockets of their robes, and tapped on the heads of the three of them, and a cold feeling spread across the three of them in an instant whole body.

   "This is the Disillusionment Charm." Hermione recognized the spell.

   "Quiet and follow!"

  Fred and George take Harry and the three to the Room of Requirement on the eighth floor opposite the tapestry where the troll beats silly Barnabas.

   "No one's around, you better hurry up!" Fred urged.

  After George passed the wall opposite the tapestry three times, a very smooth door appeared on the wall.

   "Okay, let's go in!" George pushed open the wooden door and took the lead into the Room of Requirement. Inside the door was a spacious room.

   "There is such a good place hidden here." Hermione looked around in surprise.

"This is called the Room of Requirement. We found it by accident during our first-year night tour. Later, Albert found a way to use it." George spread his hands and introduced to the three of Harry: "This is the most magical place in Hogwarts." Few people in the whole school know of the existence of this place, and Umbridge certainly doesn’t know, and even if he knows, he can’t get in, and once someone is in the Room of Requirement, others can’t get in.”

   "Dumbledore should know, he mentioned it to Karkaroff at the Yule Ball." Harry remembered Dumbledore's mention of the chamber pot at the Christmas banquet.

"Of course, there are other people who know." Fred and George didn't bother with these questions, and continued to introduce, "This is the place where we used to practice magic. I remember that George and I used to hide behind the pillars and chanted spells at each other. , to train the accuracy of the spell."

   "It's great here, but there's not enough space." Harry had been looking at this room since just now, and it was difficult to accommodate more than 20 people to practice magic together.

"Don't worry, the space inside can be expanded according to needs." George comforted, "You can think 'we need a place to learn to fight', and the Room of Response will become such a place, even if the whole school's students come It's all enough."

   "Secretly tell you that Albert has always wanted to crack the secret of the Room of Requirement, but he failed."
