Magical Studies at Hogwarts

Harry was very experienced in keeping track of this kind of thing. He and Hermione carefully entered a deserted corridor, and then wore an invisibility cloak until they came to the Room of Requirement.

Of course, the Marauder's Map is open.

On Sunday morning, most people would hide in the dormitory or the common room, only a few people would choose to wander in the castle.This made the name of Goyle, who appeared alone on the eighth floor, particularly conspicuous.

Although, in the eyes of Harry and Hermione, Goyle's name is now a little blond girl in Slytherin robes.

"Wait a moment."

Harry was about to question Goyle, but Hermione stopped him.Looking back, Hermione pulled out her wand at some point.

"Don't worry, he can't hear it..." Hermione knew exactly what Harry wanted to ask, explained briefly, and continued, "Wait a minute, maybe Malfoy will come out of it later?"

"……All right."

Harry nodded and agreed, years of habit made him happy to follow Hermione's advice.

The two of them waited at the door for almost an hour, watching Goyle, who turned into a little girl, wandering around in the corridor, but did not see the door of the Room of Requirement open.

Harry couldn't help becoming irritable, and it was Hermione who held him back.

Then, more than half an hour passed, and when Harry's face was flushed with anxiety, gorgeous patterns suddenly appeared on the wall next to him, and a door appeared just like that.

The door opened silently, and an unattractive man poked his head out from inside. Seeing Gore in the form of a little girl, he immediately waved to him. After getting Gore's nod, he didn't come out immediately, but Turning his head and nodding behind him, he walked towards Gore together with a freckled girl.

"I knew it!"

Harry's heart cried out again, his excited body trembled, and his eyes wandered between the two people who had just come out of the Room of Requirement and the Marauder's Map in their hands.

The names on the map were very clear, it was Malfoy and Crabbe.

At this moment, Hermione poked Harry's arm, and then pointed towards the door. Harry looked back, only to see a mountain piled up with various tables and chairs, in a mess, a kind of precarious Feel.

"Where is that?" he asked.

"It should be the 'room for storing sundries', I've been in it before." Hermione said while looking at the three Malfoys who were leaving.

"We should go in and take a look, there must be secrets inside, otherwise Malfoy would never have entered such a room!" Harry blushed, very excited.

"If you insist, but it's full of all kinds of discarded things, we'll probably get nothing." Hermione shrugged, obviously not thinking Harry would gain anything.

"I can not wait any more!"

Seeing the figures of the three of Malfoy disappear into the corridor, Harry immediately tore off the invisibility cloak he was wearing, and while muttering "I want a room to put the sundries" in his heart, he walked back and forth in the place where the door disappeared just now three times.When the door appeared again, he immediately got in.

"My God, this is too messy!"

As soon as he entered the door, Harry was startled by the chaos in front of him.The quick glimpse outside the door just now seemed to be nothing in ten thousandth. Only after I came in did I realize that the mountain piled up with tattered tables and chairs was so high, and inside, such a high mountain could not even be seen at a glance. side.

"As I said, we probably won't get anything." Hermione's voice sounded behind her at the right time, and she shrugged, not thinking Harry would gain anything at all.

Unwilling to give up, Harry began to walk in along the narrow and somewhat stumbling path, exclaiming while walking.

"damn it!"

"God!"

"Merlin!"

"why!"

They passed by mountains and saw many strange things.Skeletons, taxidermy, books, even a few broken wands and brooms, all in tatters, more to the dump than to the utility room.

"what!"

After bypassing a large jar filled with a strange green liquid, Harry suddenly cried out in pain, and then tightly covered his forehead with his hands.

"What's wrong?" Hermione asked hastily.

"Scar...it hurts again..."

Harry replied, clutching his forehead, and then looked around, but didn't have a clue.He knew very well that his scar hurt because there was something Voldemort-related nearby.That's the only reason he's had since he learned Occlumency.

"Look for it, it's near here!"

Harry was absolutely sure, but his search for a solution like a headless chicken had nothing to gain except to make the already messy place even more messy.

"Why? Why? It should be here..."

Harry sat awkwardly on a chair with half of the back missing, looking a bit depressed.

"Harry, stop..." Hermione put her hand lightly on Harry's shoulder and said softly, "Maybe you can tell Dumbledore about this, and he will find a way."

"However, Dumbledore doesn't want me to track down Malfoy. He got angry because of this last time. He wants me to get that memory of Slughorn!"

"That's right, but it's different this time, Harry..."

"what?"

"Your scar hurts, Harry, and Dumbledore knew exactly what that meant."

"But……"

"No but!" Hermione's tone suddenly became serious, and her eyes became sharp, "Dumbledore must know about this! Because..."

"Because of what?"

"Because there is likely to be Voldemort's Horcrux here."

"Horcrux!"

Harry was taken aback by Hermione's speculation, but then felt it was quite possible.

"But... Dumbledore is not at school right now..."

"He will always come back, and before that, maybe you can focus on the task Dumbledore entrusted to you."

"You mean..." Harry guessed, "this thing that hurts my scar is Malfoy's purpose?"

"All I can say is, it's possible," said Hermione, helping Harry out of the chair. "Now, we have to go."

"Don't forget, we've been on the eighth floor for almost two hours, and the corridor won't be empty all the time. Besides, Ron and the others who participated in Hogsmeade's special training are coming back soon."

"All right……"

The two struggled a lot before finding the way out, and after leaving the Room of Requirement, they walked towards the auditorium.This was their appointment with Ron before, and they met in the auditorium to have lunch together.

"Harry, Hermione! Hahaha, I did it!"

After waiting too long in the auditorium, Ron and Lavender came in arm in arm.Ron was very excited, and Lavender was full of doting eyes.

"You did it?" Harry asked.

"Of course... Well, there may be a little flaw." Ron said, "It should be outside Madam Puddife's teahouse. I passed it a little bit, and arrived next to the scholar's residence...but I moved!"

"At least!"

"Great, I knew you were fine!"

"Of course... By the way, how about you? What have you been doing all morning?"

"We..." Harry glanced at Ron, glanced at Lavender next to him without a trace, and replied, "Nothing, you know, so many homework and papers, how can I have time for other things? "

"Then you're done?" Ron's eyes lit up when he heard that.

"Not really." Harry shook his head, "It's too difficult, I just made a beginning, and I'm going to finish those in the afternoon..."

"Ah, so..."

Hearing this, the light in Ron's eyes disappeared.
