Chapter 200: Who is messing up (1/2)
oom!
The sound of falling bookshelves was enough to wake up the entire castle.
At this moment, the three Fred, who were playing a mouse-and-cat game with Filch on the third floor of the castle, were also taken aback by the loud noise, and stopped one after another, listening to the surrounding sounds with their ears up.
Originally, Filch, who was still pursuing a few people, also stopped and looked in the direction of the sound in amazement.
”The sound seems to be coming from the direction of the fifth floor.” Filch muttered to himself, and he immediately turned and hurried towards the library.
”What happened to the noise just now?” George was the first to restrain his curiosity.
”I don't know, maybe Albert got it out. Go back to the lounge first.” Fred said decisively, ”Before the sound just now drew other professors over, go back quickly.”
”Quick!” George whispered, and the three began to run at full speed along the corridor. They had to return to the common room before the professors appeared. Because Albert had told them that the professor at Hogwarts had the ability to see through the phantom curse on them.
Running through corridor after corridor, the three of them went to the seventh floor through the secret passage beside the corridor. On the way, Lee Jordan said again: ”Are we going to the meeting point? What about Albert?”
”That guy must have ran away before us.”
”Go straight back to the common room.”
In fact, their approach was quite correct. Soon after the sound sounded, several professors in the castle were awakened by the sound and came over to check the situation.
In the hallway, the portraits in the aisle were running back and forth, trying to figure out what was going on.
By the time Filch inspected the fifth floor, Albert had already fled the scene of the crime, and moved faster than them.
Before leaving, Albert did not forget to close the library entrance.
It was also for this reason that Filch could not find the scene of the crime for a while. He just probably knew where the sound came from, but when he checked in the past, he found nothing.
The culprit responsible for all this is hurried to the Gryffindor common room.
Albert tried not to make any noise, but the people in the portrait were awakened by the sound just now. After hearing the slight footsteps, they all turned their faces curiously and looked at the corridor where there was nothing.
After going upstairs, Albert walked halfway down the corridor, then lifted a tapestry on the wall, and walked up a narrower staircase, which was a shortcut to the eighth floor.
As for Fred and the others, they carry a live spot map and should not be caught, but Albert is not worried about their safety at all.
When he came near the entrance of the common room, he didn't release the magic on his body, and he waited for Fred here.
A few minutes later, a few people hurried to look at Albert, who was still waiting for them, and asked puzzledly: ”Why don't you enter the lounge?”
”When invisible, the fat lady won't open the door for us.” Albert reminded: ”Come with me, go to the responsive house first. Just in case, we still don't want to be seen.”
The three of Fred looked confused, but they still followed Albert to the responsive room. In this case, they were willing to trust Albert's judgment. After all, Albert had a much better brain than them. He did this. There must be a reason.
On the other side, Filch was patrolling the library, because the sound just now did make the sound of collapsing to the library shelf. However, when Filch entered the library, he didn't find any signs of collapsed bookshelves here.
Yes, no, even in the forbidden book area, there is still no sign of bookshelves collapsing, as if the sound had never happened.
At this moment, Filch knew that he was being played, yes, he was played, just like the helmet glued to the floor on the fourth floor, and the **** big dung egg that was thrown in the corridor, including here. All the sounds are people playing with themselves.
Yes, it was the **** he was chasing just now, Filch vaguely guessed who they were.
The Gryffindor twins, although there was no evidence, Filch had a hunch that it was the two of them who did it.
”Filch? What happened?”
Snape walked into the library with a gloomy face in a gray shirt-style pajama.
”I just heard a noise and came over to check the situation. I think it's probably caused by some students deliberately.” Filch turned and looked at Snape and whispered, ”I was just chasing them. Several students were wandering in the castle in the middle of the night, Professor.”
