In This Hogwarts Without a Savior

  Chapter 83 82. Hogsmeade

  The party ended before the Halloween dinner above.

  Because she was caught once last semester, as the new organizer, Hermione must be more careful. Once she takes a wrong step, not only her, but also the students in the second and first grades will be implicated as well.

  As Jon thought, this kind of rally is not to organize the students of the Mudblood to resist in action. If you really want to do that, not only is it meaningless, but it will kill everyone.

  Students get together, just the older ones tell the younger ones the true truth, what they learned in class is all deception, nothing more.

The bustle in Hogwarts castle gradually subsided after 10 o'clock, and Dolohov performed his duties as an administrator, driving all the pure-blood and half-blood students who still wanted to stay in the corridors back to their rooms. bedroom.

   And at midnight, the whole of Hogwarts fell silent. At this time, Jon opened the Marauder's Map in the dormitory.

   After confirming from the Marauder's map that no one was wandering around in the castle, he put on the invisibility cloak, left the basement bedroom, went straight to the first floor, walked through the hall, and sneaked out of the castle.

   Walking along the lawn towards the direction of the Quidditch pitch, he followed the same route as the previous few times, sticking to the wall that surrounded the entire school and walking quickly towards the gate.

Until he came to the place where he left the note last time, Jon squatted down, brushed away the weeds that had turned a little yellow, and by the moonlight, he finally found in the soil a piece of paper with him a month ago. Get the same cloth bag in your hand.

  This time he didn't put the cloth bag away immediately, but directly opened the closure, fumbled inside, and found a note the size of a palm.

  Jon drew out his wand and whispered the spell.

   "Luminescence."

  The faint light that suddenly lit up from the tip of the staff illuminated the darkness in front of him, and at the same time allowed him to see the content recorded on the note.

   There is no text on it, just a pig's head with fangs drawn in black ink.

  After seeing this pattern, Jon's mind immediately became clear.

  Before, he was still guessing who this person was who sent him a batch of potion ingredients every month. Now that he saw this, he couldn't be more clear.

If you think about it carefully, it is indeed the case. In the entire wizarding world, you can count the wizards who know the relationship between this person and Dumbledore. If he hadn't had time to do something during the Battle of Hogwarts seven years ago If it helps, there is a high probability that Dumbledore will let him continue to hide his identity and lurk near Hogwarts Castle.

  After thinking about this, Jon immediately stuffed the note and the cloth bag containing the potion ingredients into his pocket, put away his wand, put on the cloak of invisibility, and returned to the castle.

  After returning to the castle, he didn't go back to the Mudblood's underground bedroom. Instead, he hid under his invisibility cloak, and while looking at the Marauder's Map in his hand, he came to the Gunhilda Corridor in Gosmoor on the third floor.

  In this corridor, there is a statue of a hunchbacked one-eyed old witch. Because there are no classrooms or professor's offices around, and the statue itself looks a bit weird, few students usually come here.

  Jon walked around behind the old witch statue, raised his wand, and tapped lightly on the statue's hunchback.

   "Left and right separation."

  The next second, the hunchback opened, revealing a stone slide.

  Jon finally confirmed the information on the Marauder's map, and after making sure that there was no one around, he put away the map, clenched his wand tightly, got into the secret passage and slid down.

   This is an extremely long slide. After entering the secret passage, he used the lighting spell, and the front of him was winding and undulating, with no end in sight.

The slide lasted for more than ten minutes before Jon stepped on the solid ground again. In front of him was a stone step leading to the top. There were probably hundreds of steps. The light of the illuminating spell was not enough to illuminate the stone steps. the end.

  Jon started to walk up the stone steps. He didn't count them carefully, but he felt that after walking more than two hundred steps, he came to the end of this secret passage, with a wooden trapdoor above his head.

  Opened the door, and Jon got out of the secret passage. At this moment, he had completely left Hogwarts Castle and came to the wizarding town outside the school—Hogsmeade Village!

  If the shops in this village haven't changed much, the room he's in now should be the cellar of the Honeydukes Candy Store.

Looking at the messy wooden barrels and boxes around him, Jon didn't stay in the cellar for long. He approached the door, cast an unlocking spell on the locked door, and then opened the door from the back door of the candy store. Came to this village for the first time.

   I don't know if it's an illusion, but looking at the wide and straight street, Jon can feel that his breathing has become much easier.

  The oppressive atmosphere of Hogwarts Castle can only be felt after coming out of it.

  Even after arriving in Hogsmeade, Jon still didn't take off his invisibility cloak. He began to search the streets of this wizarding town, and the results soon came to fruition.

This is a small bar. The dilapidated wooden signboard hangs on a rusty bracket on the door, and a chopped pig's head is nailed to it. Under the night, you can vaguely see the blood seeping through it. white cloth.

  Still not taking off the invisibility cloak on his body, Jon gently knocked on the closed door of the bar.

  The sound of knocking on the door echoed in the quiet night, but there was no movement coming from inside. His hands didn't stop, but continued to knock on the door.

   Not long after, there was finally a response from the bar, which was a rude and impatient voice.

"Do you understand the rules? No accommodation will be accepted after 10 o'clock! If you have no place to sleep, just lie at the door and wait for me to open the door the next day! Even if you are a pure-blooded master, if you knock on the door again, I will turn your head into a The troll is that big!"

  Jon was still indomitable, as if if he didn't open the door, he would knock the door down.

   Soon there was a sound of "dong dong dong" in the bar, someone walking down the wooden stairs quickly, accompanied by a burst of irritated cursing.

  The door of the bar was opened from the inside, and a irascible old man in pajamas, with ponytail hair and a short but bushy beard was holding his wand and staring at the empty door.

   "Excuse me, do you sell phoenix tears in your family?"

  A slightly immature voice sounded out of thin air, causing the blue pupils of the old man who smelled like sheep to shrink suddenly.
