Hogwarts Outsider Chapter 161: Halloween is coming
The vandalized statue in front of the principal's office, and the mysterious **** dog that appeared in the Forbidden Forest... These two incidents did not gradually disappear from the heated discussions among the students until more than a week later.
Everything has returned to calm. On the surface, Hogwarts Castle is slowly recovering from the previous state of emergency.
The days go by like this...
Professor Horace Slughorn was not unusual, he didn't even talk to Matthew about the fact that Matthew left without saying goodbye that night... as if he hadn't even noticed that Matthew had left so early.
And "Severus Snape" returned to everyone soon. Matthew often went to him to ask some questions about deformation theory, and he was very happy to answer them.
Soon, Halloween is coming.
The atmosphere inside Hogwarts Castle is very enthusiastic, because the day before Halloween, they can go to Hogsmeade for another day!
Walking in the corridor, you can hear everyone discussing about Hogsmeade everywhere, about the Honeydukes candy store, Zonko's joke store, and even the screaming shack...
…
At breakfast the day before Halloween, Matthew wakes up with the rest of his classmates.
However, when he went to the auditorium for breakfast, he was far less excited than the other students, and instead behaved normally.
Because Matthew didn't intend to go to Hogsmeade.
The experience in Hogsmeade a month ago left him with a deep "psychological shadow"... Even if he guessed in his heart, there is a high probability that Tom Gaunt will not come back; Take that risk.
In case of another accident, he can't guarantee that the bartender at the Pig's Head Bar can save him again.
Let's stay at Hogwarts obediently. At least there are Aurors, dementors and many teachers here, so it can be called safe.
After breakfast, the number of people in the castle decreased by more than half in an instant.
Except for some first-year students (who are not yet eligible to go to Hogsmeade), and a few seniors, who have obviously been to Hogsmeade many times and don't think it's new anymore.
Matthew walked towards the library alone... He can be sure that the library will be very quiet today.
"Meow!" As he passed the door of the History of Magic classroom, Matthew suddenly heard a strange meow.
He took a closer look and saw a big **** cat.
Crookshanks, Hermione Granger's pet.
It hopped and jumped into the History of Magic classroom, as if it was chasing something.
Matthew had to admit that this ugly big cat has been acting a little weird this semester...or, after returning from India with Hermione, it became a little weird.
In the last semester, Matthew remembered that it was quite well-behaved, far less "restless" than it is now.
Does this mean something?
Maxiu walked slowly to the library while thinking about it.
However, in the library, Matthew met an acquaintance——
"Good morning!" Agnes Lestrange sat in the corner of the library, she looked up and smiled at Matthew.
"Hello!" Matthew also smiled at her.
…
It was not until after nightfall that Matthew left the library.
He reached the foyer and walked in the direction of the auditorium.
The auditorium is decorated with countless pumpkins with candles, a large group of bats flying around in the air, and many colorful banners flying in the air...
I have to say that the atmosphere of Halloween is very strong.
The food was so good that even the students returning from Hogsmeade with stomachs full of Honeydukes bonbons kept adding to their plates.
Matthew looked towards the staff table——
Headmaster Gellert Grindelwald is at that table again.
The headmaster of Hogwarts has always been very busy, and he only returns to Hogwarts during holidays. Everyone, including Matthew, is used to it.
This is also the first time Matthew has seen him this semester since the opening banquet.
Matthew glanced across the staff table, and finally landed on Professor "Severus Snape"...Professor "Severus Snape" looked as usual, with a pleasant face and the teachers around him talk to them.
But Matthew noticed that Professor "Snape" glanced at Principal Grindelwald frequently, which was not normal.
At the end of the banquet, there is a performance by the ghosts of Hogwarts; this is also a sideshow for Halloween every year.
The ghosts frequently sprang out from the walls and tables, gliding in a very neat formation...
The students also applauded politely.
…
After the performance of the ghosts is over, it also means that the Halloween party has finally come to an end.
Students began to leave the auditorium one after another, as well as teachers and ghosts of course.
In the end, only Grindelwald and Rozier, the principals and vice-principals, remained in the huge and brightly lit auditorium.
"Vita, tell me, what happened during this time?" Professor Gellert Grindelwald's expression looked a little tired, a bit tired from the journey.
"As you expected, Lord Grindelwald." Professor Rozier replied very calmly:
"Obviously, the target of those rats was Hogwarts, and they got in easily... We don't know the specific method... They tried to break into the headmaster's office, and once succeeded Yes, but luckily..."
"What they want is not in the principal's office, is it?" Grindelwald interrupted suddenly.
"Yes," Rozier said with a smile, "There is nothing in this world that can escape your eyes..."
"No~IndoMTL.com~Weta," Grindelwald shook his head very seriously, "I have never been omniscient, and no one can do it... Prophecy, its real meaning lies in Inspire the future instead of confining your future to a rigid framework..."
"...Fate should be controlled by us, not by prophecy to control our future!"
Rozier nodded thoughtfully.
After a while, she continued to report: "Judging from the existing situation, those rats know our situation well, which is not normal... Lord Grindelwald, I suspect that Hogwarts has their Spy..."
"There is a possibility," Grindelwald replied calmly, "The world has never been monolithic..."
"I will find out that mouse lurking inside us as soon as possible!" Rozier said firmly.
"No..." Grindelwald shook his head, "To be precise, it's actually a phoenix lurking among us!"
