From Azkaban To Hogwarts

Chapter 554 Gryffindor’s Prank

What's going on?

William looked at Peeves with a bit of uncertainty in his eyes.

He thought that after experiencing the darkness of Azkaban and seeing the office of the First White Wizard, he was no longer a person with limited knowledge - but what the hell was the scene now?

He knew how fierce Peeves was. Although Filch kept saying that he wanted to expel Peeves from Hogwarts, the painful experience of the previous administrators had proved that this idea had better be just an ordinary idea, otherwise It could really turn into a disaster.

He was a little confused about the specific meaning of that song - literally speaking, it should have started some strange scene after seeing Peeves singing under the moonlight and pulling a grand well-intentioned prank. , but what is this definition?

Is it consequentialism? Idealism? Or will Peeves decide?

Who created this ceremony? What are the four founders left behind? Left behind by the first generation of magicians who helped build the castle? Could this even be a scam?

He didn't know, but it didn't affect Peeves' actions at all.

After Peeves bowed, he walked towards the wall - the wall he passed through instantly turned into a transparent area with shadows.

"this…"

The twins were a little moved, but still looked at William.

It is true that they like to explore the secrets in the castle, but now they are still carrying an undetermined punishment!

As for such trivial matters as danger, the two of them didn't even think about it.

"Wait a moment."

William waved his wand lightly, trying to use the Patronus to send a message - this was given to him by Professor McGonagall along with some general Animagus skills. Although he was not very proficient, he could already use it.

But it's a pity - just as that cute hummingbird was about to fly out, it was blocked by an invisible presence, as if it hit the glass, and it couldn't fly out anyway.

"This is…"

William was stunned for a moment, and then decisively shouted to the two of them, "Go, follow, you seem to have triggered something great!"

"Follow me, keep up!"

William's tone was a little excited, and then he decisively put on a shield for himself, walked directly to the front, and passed through the virtual walls with ease.

He is very familiar with this power - it is the protective power of the entire castle!

After constructing various mazes many times, especially during last year's Triwizard Tournament, although he was unable to mobilize this power, he had dealt with it countless times.

'Sure enough, just as I guessed, Peeves can even mobilize the power of the castle when necessary, otherwise it would be unreasonable for the principal and a group of professors to be beaten by it...'

‘So, is this protective power really... left by the founder? ’

William carefully looked around, thinking, and occasionally observing the twin brothers behind him.

He could be sure that the passage he was taking now did not belong to any known secret passage, and there was even no such secret passage in Hogwarts - because they even passed directly through several secret passages, and all existence was blocked. With a slight movement, it became blurry and made room for them to pass.

'This way is...'

William walked up a slope, then up another slope, and after a moment's thought, he judged their direction - the Gryffindor common room!

The twins behind him also noticed this. The two looked at each other and quickly communicated with their eyes.

'Outrageous...'

When Peeves finally stopped, William's eyes became strange.

He was probably sure who did this, and there was very clear evidence.

Now they are in an unusually strange location - the entrance to the Gryffindor common room is a portrait of the Fat Lady. William knows this. After the Fat Lady opens the passage, Gryffindor students need to pass through. The hole in the wall entered the lounge, and they were now a little bit next to the Fat Lady. They could even see the transparent and hidden passage...

This is a small room, cleverly sandwiched between the common room and the outer wall of the tower...

'The treasure hidden under the common room - I can't believe this isn't a huge joke played by Gryffindor and his students. ’

William couldn't help but glance at the twins behind him.

Gryffindors can only play pranks for fun, but they have to be Gryffindors to actually do pranks.

Just such a place, hidden next to the Gryffindor lounge, has been hidden for thousands of years, and I don't know how many people have revealed this secret.

He examined the room. In the center of the small room was a stone table, with five items scattered on it. Judging from the vacant positions, there should have been seven or eight collections on it - —William couldn’t be sure.

Peeves nodded toward the table, and a piece of text appeared directly on one of the places where William was unsure.

"Choose one, don't be greedy."

"A good prank always pays off with good intentions..."

"Maybe you just want a great adventure..."

The Sorting Hat's singing-level verses made William couldn't help but shake his head - it was almost certain who made this thing.

There is almost no threshold required to take things away. You can take something by signing a very simple and effective contract and forgetting about the related pranks after you leave.

William checked the contract - there was no problem, the only problem now is that only one thing will be taken away each time it is opened.

"Forget it...we can't take opportunities from students..."

Although Gryffindor's treasures were interesting, only two of the seven were taken away. There was a lot to choose from, but it wasn't a big deal - didn't he also have a crown that could be seen and used?

And, to be honest, if he guessed correctly... one of the two items that was taken away is now in his possession.

"professor?"

Fred's low voice interrupted William's speculation. He turned around and looked at the two of them with a smile. "Okay, pick your trophies. Don't try to joke with the guardian agency here. I'll use Merlin." My beard swears to you that I can’t beat Peeves now.”

It's really impossible to defeat - unless you are determined to demolish the school, but what the hell is that?

"Are they real?"

"Really, and safe enough."

William nodded and endorsed the things here.

The two nodded together and quickly ran to the stone table - when they stood in front of something, a simple introduction would emerge.

“Better adventures!”

Just such a simple sentence, the thing on the table is an existence that looks like a pot.

"More time!"

This time there was something that looked like a time turner on the table, but after William looked carefully, he discovered that it was an empty medicine bottle with a special shape.

"More accurate information!"

This one is empty - taken.

"more money!"

This time it was a cloth bag.

"A lighter step!"

This is a pair of shoes made of linen.

"A more certain future!"

This one is also empty, and William can now determine what the more accurate information is.

"More wisdom!"

On the table is an embryo of a crown, which looks a bit like Ravenclaw's diadem - but it is definitely not real, and the real thing is still in the headmaster's office.

William's side was fine, and the twins shook their heads - something very unpleasant happened between them last time they wore crowns, and now they are all obsessed with what their great invention is, and they haven't even thought about it yet.

"Watch it carefully, and then make your choice - you two will still be in confinement!"

William very kindly reminded his students that there were still assessments outside, and the two students who had made great positive pranks should go to solitary confinement after receiving their Gryffindor rewards.

The smiles on their faces paused, then they looked at each other, nodded, and walked firmly towards the cloth bag over there.

"Think carefully. There is a high probability that there is a pocket with a transformation spell, which can produce a little gold - it may be a valuable prop, but it will be of limited help to wizards."

There is nothing stopping the two of them from choosing another William - but that more money is really... other things are really irreplaceable!

"We've thought this through, Professor!"

The twins nodded towards William, "We have grown up listening to the stories of the three brothers since we were young!"

‘The story of three brothers? ’

William vaguely remembered something - there was nothing he could do, magical fairy tales were even more outrageous than normal fairy tales. He gave up getting information from them after discovering many non-magical mistakes, but now that the two of them were talking about it, he could only nod his head. I know it myself.

"We were planning to open our own shop and needed gold, so it was the best choice!"

The two explained in unison, "We have already done better adventures at Hogwarts, and now we have to use our own props to help others take risks!"

"The same goes for lighter steps, which sounds nice, but we don't need it!"

"More wisdom—that crown is yours, Professor!"

"As for more time, we don't seem to need to consider such an issue at the moment! Moreover, we really want to see what kind of things can be said to be more money!"

The two people's quick judgment made William feel a little happy - he didn't expect that his students were more decisive than him, leaving all those fancy-looking things behind.

They pulled out their magic wands and tapped decisively on the word more money.

Peeves walked up quickly, picked up the bag, and then began to swing it - the power that blurred the surrounding environment floated on the bag, making William look at it for a while.

He had seen Singed use alchemy to refine some magic items, but he had never seen such a simple and powerful method - Peeves was simply using the power that protected Hogwarts to refine it.

The twins stood nearby and put forward some opinions from time to time, and then Peeves immediately modified it and added corresponding accessories.

Finally, when the bag was put down, the two people's initials even appeared on it.

Peeves opened the bag, picked up a number of iron nails from the place where they were originally pressed by the bag, and stuffed them into the bag one after another - a thin silk thread on the mouth of the bag began to fade. After about five minutes, the original nails were The tightly tied bag was loosened. Peeves picked up the bag and tipped it over.

There was a tinkling clang - the sweet sound of gold coins came out, and about thirty galleons were poured on the table.

The twins were stunned, and William was also stunned. He waved his wand in disbelief and summoned a Galleon. After observing it carefully, he held it with his hand wearing dragon skin gloves, and then took out another Galleon with him. Galleon began to compare.

A minute later, William was surprised and took out the potion from his pocket, and carefully experimented with the transformed Galleons.

Five minutes later, he raised his head with complicated eyes.

"How's it going, Professor?"

The twins asked curiously, "Is this true?"

real?

Nothing in Gringotts is as good as this!

This is too much of a punishment - none of the economic criminals in Azkaban are so outrageous. This thing is probably produced exactly according to Galleon's production steps.

If you think about it carefully, it's not outrageous. If Gryffindor wanted to, could the secret created by Galleon be hidden?

"Don't tell others you have this, don't let others see it!"

William was a little worried, "By the way, it's best to let it be changed without marking your name! Change it to Gryffindor, yes, it's best to have it be Gryffindor's Fountain of Wealth or something!"

He carefully recalled the relevant laws, and after a long time he was surprised to find that this thing was ridiculously not illegal...

The Galleons on the market are too fake, and the Ministry of Magic does not have many strict laws, so it is not illegal to make Galleons...

"Keep it well, use it sparingly, and don't let anyone know!"

William whispered to George, but Fred on the other side raised his head.

"It seems to take 24 hours to recover," Fred shook his head, "Okay, this is outrageous enough, Professor, we will not let anyone find out!"

'I probably won't remember it after I go out... But it's not a big problem. Once I mark it as Gryffindor, even if something happens, it will be confiscated at most...'

William shook his head, his memory also had to be erased, hoping that the two of them would remember to be cautious in their previous daily teachings.

As the twins left with amnesia, he was also ready to leave.

But just after he finished signing, Peeves suddenly clicked on a line of text, "Little Helena, you found my secret room! Take an extra gift and go!"

? ? ?

William was stunned for a moment, and then recalled the name - it was the crown that Ms. Helena gave him!

It seems like it's still in front of the principal and dean?

The power of school protection is still used here - is this confusion?

He tentatively walked over, hesitated a little, decisively chose the shoes, and clicked.

Peeves rushed up, beat the shoes hard several times, and then started to make a new pair of shoes according to William's instructions.

When the shoes were handed to William, he was driven out by an inexplicable force and appeared in the corridor. His preconceived and reasonable thoughts immediately emerged - this was to prevent memory when the contract was signed. The conflict resulted in amnesia and other phenomena that were left behind.

"strangeness?"

William was stunned for a moment, pulled out his wand, looked around and found that nothing was wrong, and then looked at the shoes in his hand.

"By the way, just after catching the twins, Peeves started causing trouble, and then I found this from where Peeves was hiding - it seems unusual, is it the source of Peeves' power?"

"Well, why do I feel that the protective force in the castle doesn't reject me so much?"

"I think I can apparate?"
