In This Hogwarts Without a Savior

  Chapter 79 78. Marauder's Map

   "To be honest, I don't understand why Dolokhov has to create a storage room on the first floor. Isn't the room next to his office more convenient?"

   Crabbe scratched his head and said with a smirk.

  They were already walking out of the office at this time, Draco said triumphantly as if he knew some of the secrets.

"The one on the first floor is actually not a storage room at all. I heard from senior students that that room was actually the office of the previous administrator, but after Dolohov became an administrator, the office of the This room is very disgusting, not only did not choose to inherit it, but also used it as a 'garbage station'..."

  The sound of their footsteps and conversation had gradually faded away. After they left, Jon stood up from under the table with a thoughtful expression on his face.

  Even if he still remembered the general plot in the original book, he couldn’t remember every detail so clearly. For example, he didn’t know exactly where Filch’s office was in the original book.

   But Draco's bragging speech in stealing something helped him a lot.

   This office was originally moved in by Dolohov, and Filch's office was abandoned on the first floor by him as a utility room!

Jon didn't continue to waste time in Dolohov's office. He quickly walked down the first floor wearing an invisibility cloak, but he didn't immediately go to the utility room that Draco said, but went into the bathroom , took off the invisibility cloak on his body, and went to join Hermione and the others.

  He has delayed enough time, and if he continues to disappear like this, others can say that if Hermione is careful, she might be able to find out the problem.

I found several other second-grade students in the bathroom that needed to be cleaned. Because men and women work in different bathrooms separately, the boys didn't notice anything unusual about Jon's absence for so long, they just thought he had diarrhea Been in the bathroom for a while.

  No one will be lazy after starting to work. These children are only 12 years old and their minds are relatively simple.

   It was only when Jon was cleaning that he intentionally or unintentionally asked a boy named Hanton next to him.

   "I heard that there is a storage room on the first floor that Mr. Dolokhov used to store contraband?"

  Hendon thought for a while after hearing what Jon said before nodding.

"Mr. Dolokhov seems to sometimes store things in a room on the first floor, which is the third room on the left after entering the hall, but that is a restricted area for us, try not to get close to it, Otherwise, sometimes even if he didn't go in, he would say that we violated the school rules and find reasons to punish us."

  He seemed to think of some bad memories, his body could not help but shiver, but he did not forget to remind Jon.

  Jon waved his hand and said.

   "I just heard other people talk about this matter and ask casually. I won't be stupid enough to touch Mr. Dolokhov's mold."

  Handton just reminded him casually, and he didn't expect Jon to make any bold moves, because "Randy" has always been a very timid person in their impression.

   After finishing the work in the bathroom, it was already eight o'clock in the evening.

  The exhausted Mudblood students returned to their dormitories under the supervision of the prefects, and then Dolohov locked the big iron door, announcing the end of the day.

  The night gradually deepened, and Jon lay on the bed and counted the time silently. After estimating that it was almost midnight, he got up from the bed,

   Skillfully put on the cloak of invisibility, drew out his wand, and Jon gently opened his door and walked out of the bedroom.

He left the "cell" where the Mudbloods were held, and went from the basement to the corridor on the first floor. According to the information Hanton gave him in the evening, he found the third locked object on the left at the end of the hall. between.

  The door lock was opened by Jon using the Unlocking Charm. After he closed the door again in the dark, he waved his wand again under the invisibility cloak.

   "Luminescence."

   A faint light illuminated this small room.

There are a lot of messy magic joke props piled up around them. These are some miscellaneous things that Dolohov collected from mixed-race students. Jon saw a clown mask with red eyes in it, and a clown mask that looked like A fake tongue wriggling on the ground like a snake, and a zombie head-shaped leather ball rolling back and forth.

  He didn't even look at these prank props, which were considered weird at midnight, but went straight to a wooden cabinet placed in the far corner.

   Cleared away all the things that had piled up around the wooden cabinet, and then he began to check every item stored in the cabinet one by one.

  Finally, when he found the third row below the cabinet, he vaguely saw a line of text marked on the second drawer on the right—"Confiscated items, highly dangerous."

  Seeing this line of writing, Jon breathed a sigh of relief. He opened the drawer, and as expected, he found a worn-out blank parchment inside!

  Jon reached out and took the parchment out of the drawer with a serious expression on his face.

People who don't know the inside story will not find any difference in this parchment. It is like a piece of waste paper that has been forgotten by the owner and has not been used for a long time, but to Jon, he is The use of this "waste paper" couldn't be clearer.

   He raised the wand in his hand and tapped the parchment while speaking softly.

   "I solemnly swear that I will do no good."

Then, a group of black ink dots appeared at the position where his wand was struck, and then black lines spread around the ink dots, spreading around continuously, and soon the black lines covered the entire sheet. Parchment, on which a map of the entire Hogwarts was outlined!

   Not only the map, but also the names of everyone who is currently in the castle, all of which are also presented on the map.

  He saw the names of Severus Snape, Anthony Dolohov, Draco Malfoy and others.

  In the middle of the night, no one was walking around, and the names of both students and teachers stayed quietly in their lounges.

   And directly above this map, there is still a piece of text written by its creators.

  【Moonface, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs, gentlemen helping magical mischief makers, presenting—The Marauder's Map! 】

   I’m a little sleepy, let’s continue to write a little more. If I can write enough for 2,000 later, I’ll post it. If it’s not enough, I’ll add another three chapters tomorrow.
