Chapter 113 Discovered

"The Disguise Curse should last for a few hours, or it may be shorter. Anyway, the effect will gradually disappear. Pay attention to the changes on your body." When Albert used the Disguise Curse on Fred, he reminded him, "If the spell If you fail and get caught, don’t confess me.”

"I have confidence in you. After all, you dare to use it on yourself." Fred didn't take this matter to heart. In his opinion, the fact that Albert dared to use it on himself meant that the effect of the spell was guaranteed.

"Filch was indeed woken up. He was already up and ready to come and arrest people." George, who had been staring at the Marauder's Map, noticed that Filch had started to take action and immediately reminded him.

 “Have you found any other professors?” Albert asked. There is also a task related to Filch on his side. If Filch is the only one, Albert doesn't mind completing the task smoothly.

“Nothing has been found so far. Filch should search the third floor first. Let’s go to the fourth floor and make some noise there. Then…”

 After the three of them got together and chatted together, they began to act according to the original plan.

In the corridor on the third floor, Filch, who was wearing a thick cloak, was in an extremely bad mood, because he found that he had failed again. The students who had gotten up in the middle of the night for night walks had disappeared to nowhere, and even Peeves had disappeared.

Filch quickly regained his composure because he heard a rush of footsteps, and the sound was very close to here.

That guy is still nearby and he can't escape.

Filch gritted his teeth and chased after him. When he passed the corner, he even saw the light disappearing around the corner.

"You can't run away." Filch muttered, holding an oil lamp and chasing after him.

However, Filch, who was chasing after him, found that he had lost track of his target.

That’s right, I lost the chase!

Filch dared to pat his chest and promise that there was absolutely no secret passage nearby. Where was that hateful guy hiding?

"What is this?" Filch just took a few steps forward when he felt he stepped on something. He moved his feet and put the light over. His face immediately darkened.

 I stepped on a big dung bomb!

Filch raised his head furiously, raised the oil lamp and glanced around, looking for the **** who was playing tricks on him.

However, Filch didn't even realize that the person he was looking for was squatting in the corner of the corridor, trying hard to hold his breath and suppressing laughter.

There is no doubt that Albert's Disillusionment Curse successfully helped Fred hide it from Filch's eyes.

Filch did not stay where he was for long, because he heard the clank of armor falling from upstairs again.

That guy ran upstairs?

 Is there a secret passage nearby that he doesn't know about?

"impossible."

 Filch believed that no one knew the secret passages of Hogwarts better than himself.

He hurriedly chased in the direction of the sound, still muttering in a low voice, "You can't escape, I will definitely hang you up and give you a good beating with a whip."

After Filch's footsteps faded away, Fred gasped for air. He felt like he was suffocating from holding in his breath.

 Filch passed through the secret passage as quickly as possible and rushed to the armor corridor on the fourth floor. He only found a helmet falling to the ground.

 The sound just now was caused by it falling.

As Filch walked over, he smelled another familiar odor.

 That's right, the smell of dung bombs. A dung bomb landed on his boots. As soon as Filch reacted, he chased straight ahead.

 He already knew that he was being played.

 Those annoying students, or Peeves?

"Peeves, get out of here. I know it's you who is causing trouble. Get out of here!" Filch's face turned red, looking like a volcano about to erupt. Fred, who was hiding next to him, looked at him excitedly. Looking in the direction where Filch disappeared, he never thought that he could actually blame Peeves for this matter.

 This is a good thing.

  Anyway, neither side is a good person, so it would be best if they could fight each other.

In another corridor, Albert closed his pocket watch, estimated the time, and used magic to make a crackling sound. When he was about to leave the crime scene, he suddenly heard rapid footsteps approaching this way.

"Oops."

 Albert quickly held his breath and hid in a corner.

A few seconds later, a pale light appeared in Albert's field of vision, and Professor Bud Brod, wearing a purple cloak, walked towards this direction. He raised his wand and looked around, his eyes lingering on where Albert was hiding for a moment.

"It's over." Albert felt that his heartbeat could not help but speed up a few beats. He was not sure whether his Disguise Spell could deceive Professor Brod.

Filch is also coming this way.

"Professor, did you hear anything?" Filch said angrily. "There are students wandering around at night. I think there is more than one of them."

Albert smelled a foul smell and swore it was the twin brothers who threw dung bombs at Filch.

"Are there students wandering at night?" Professor Broad raised his eyebrows, glanced at Albert's position, and said, "I didn't see it. I just heard the noise and came over to check. What happened to your boots?" What's going on?"

“The dung bomb was probably made by Peeves, who is invisible.” Filch explained angrily.

"Peeves?" Professor Brod repeated meaningfully, and with a flick of his wand, he wiped away the stains on Filch's boots.

 “Thank you.” Filch said gratefully.

"You're welcome. You go look over there, and I'll look over there. If it's a student who makes the noise, he must not have gone far." Professor Brod pointed in the other direction.

“Okay, we must catch them tonight.” Filch turned around and chased around the corner while Professor Broad also turned and left.

Albert could vaguely hear Brod’s voice: “It won’t happen next time.”

Albert didn’t think this was an illusion, and Professor Brod indeed discovered him. However, the professor actually let him go, which surprised Albert.

 After the two left, Albert left without hesitation and went to the agreed place to meet the twin brothers.

 Speaking of which, why did Professor Broad suddenly appear?

  Could it be that he is really the one who enters the room where requests are answered?

Albert didn’t think much more. After getting rid of other thoughts in his mind, he cautiously headed to the meeting point.

 “Are you okay?” George asked worriedly. "I just discovered that Professor Brod also appeared. Didn't he see through your illusion spell?"

"No, he has seen through it. However, he let me go." Albert said helplessly, "Let Fred come back quickly, let's go to the eighth floor."

“What are you doing on the eighth floor?” George asked in confusion.

"Go to the Room of Requirement. You should be able to get in there. If you can, just hide there for a while. When Filch goes back to rest, we will go to the library." Albert wanted to make sure that the people who were in the Room of Requirement just now, Is it Professor Broad?

 “Okay.” George also knew that was the end of the night, and it would not be good to make too much trouble.

 “Where did you and Fred agree to meet?”

 “He’s coming soon,” George said.

"Albert, are you okay?" Soon after, Fred, who had gone to lead the person away, hurried over and asked worriedly.

"It's okay, let's get out of here first." Albert interrupted, "Filch is still looking for us. Of course, there is also Professor Brod, the Disillusionment Curse cannot be hidden from his eyes."
