Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 33: Hogsmeade Village
"Who's advanced?"
After breakfast, a group of people is standing in front of the entrance to the mirror tunnel on the fifth floor.
"You need to ask, of course, it's one of the three of you!" Albert said as a matter of course, "You have already been in once, so naturally you have experience."
"Okay, I'll go first." Fred walked down the stairs cautiously, the other three immediately followed, and the mirror returned to its place after the four entered the secret passage.
This passage is a bit crowded, the **** is very steep, and it is pitch black all around, and the four of them slowly walk down the stairs.
Albert raised his wand and muttered, "Flicker!"
"I hate cramped, dark places like this," Lee Jordan murmured.
"Don't complain, just follow." Fred was concentrating on maintaining the glowing spell and slowly walked down the stairs.
The passage here is so narrow that it is difficult for the two to even pass sideways. The surroundings are dark, and they walk a long way down the stairs. Halfway through, Fred's wand went out several times.
"I think it's time for you to practice the luminous spell. This is the most basic spell." Albert probed his wand forward and reminded aloud.
"I hate it," Fred muttered, trying to get the wand to glow again.
"After this flight of stairs, the space in front will be wider. Let Albert lead the way!" George suggested, fed up with stopping every few minutes.
"Good!"
After walking down the stairs, they came to a gloomy passage. The ground was a little damp and made of hard soil. Occasionally, water dripped from the top of the head, and one drop landed on Albert's face, making him unable to resist After a shiver, he quickly reached out and wiped the water from his face, and continued walking.
Along the way, Albert walked very slowly to avoid accidentally falling. The others didn't speak, focusing all their attention on dealing with the uneven ground of the passage.
The four of them stumbled and stumbled forward. The passage twisted and twisted, and it was unknown who dug it.
Then again, it's a bit strange that they weren't suffocated to death.
Albert raised his wand above his head and looked up the passage.
"What are you looking at?" Fred asked.
"Uh, is there a vent on the top of the head?"
"Where?" The three of them all looked overhead, but did not find the ventilation hole Albert mentioned.
"Just where we just walked."
After walking for 1 hour and 20 minutes, the passage began to extend upwards, which meant that the exit was very close, and the four people who were gasping for breath began to speed up their pace.
After five minutes, they could feel the cold wind blowing outside.
The entrance to the secret passage is under a very secret big rock, and the exit is very narrow, so the fat man might get stuck.
It's still raining outside, but it's not that heavy.
After Albert walked out of the passage, he took out his umbrella and opened it to block the rain above his head,
The three Weasleys rushed over.
"You didn't bring an umbrella." Albert was speechless.
"No." The three shook their heads in unison.
Albert used the Duplicate Charm to conjure three umbrellas for them.
"You are as reliable as ever." The three praised cheekily.
"By the way, this umbrella is so strange?" Lee Jordan looked at the umbrella in his hand curiously, it actually retracted?
"This is a new invention of the Germans a few years ago, which is convenient and easy to carry." Albert used the invulnerability spell on himself to ensure that his clothes and boots would not get wet when walking through the lush grassland.
"Be careful?" When he heard George's exclamation, he turned his head and saw that Lee Jordan fell to the ground, soaking wet.
"Are you alright!" Fred hurriedly stretched out his hand and pulled the man up.
"Unfortunately, my clothes are soaking wet," Lee Jordan whispered.
The twins looked at Albert.
"You look at me like this, and I didn't cause him to fall." Albert was a little inexplicable.
"Have you mastered the drying spell?"
"What makes you think I can do this kind of family magic?" Albert asked irritably.
"Cough, we just asked casually, we always think you can do any magic." Fred coughed dryly to ease the awkward atmosphere.
"I said you three, can you get out of here first." Lee Jordan, who was soaking wet, had a bad temper. "I hate rain the most, the most, the most."
They walked through the grass towards the Hogsmeade village ahead.
Probably because of the rain, the streets of Hogsmeade were deserted, and Lee Jordan, with his teeth chattering, suggested going to Three Brooms first. He wanted to drink a butterbeer to warm himself up first.
The three have no opinion.
They walked along a road, and after a few minutes, they easily found the bar the three were talking about.
Well, there are three brooms hanging on the door of this bar, forming a triangle.
What makes Albert want to complain is that the pointed triangular roof on the door is crooked. Is it really a house built by a wizard?
Complete disregard for physical rules and general visual aesthetics.
Of course, there is a sign in front of the bar that reads: Three Brooms.
There were very few people in the bar today. When Albert entered, he only saw a wizard sitting at the counter chatting with the proprietress.
The fire was roaring with flames, and Lee Jordan hurried over, took off his robes and put them to dry by the fire.
"I'm going to order a drink." Albert said, walking towards the counter. After the twins looked at each other, they sat on the chair opposite Lee Jordan.
"Four butterbeers, warm." Albert said to the bartender.
The wizard seemed upset that the chat was interrupted ~IndoMTL.com~ turned his head and glared at Albert.
Albert gave him a blank look, then ignored him and sat down beside the wizard.
"Where's the kid?" the wizard whispered, and after being glared at by the three-broom proprietress, he obediently shut up.
"Are you Hogwarts students?" Ms. Rosemerta looked at the four young wizards who entered the store in surprise. She couldn't understand how these four little guys got their way from Hogwarts. slipped out.
"How much?" Albert asked blankly.
"8 Sic." Ms. Rosmerta went into the back room to help them warm butterbeer.
Albert surveys the bar in his spare time.
Honestly, it's much better than the Leaky Cauldron.
The lobby of the bar is very bright, several tables are neatly arranged, and the hygiene is also very clean. There is no strong smell of beer in it, but the furnishings are a bit like the medieval tavern in the game in memory.
After waiting for about five minutes, four glasses of butterbeer were placed in front of Albert, and he hurriedly called someone to help them.
"Eight sikos." Albert took out eight sikos and put them on the table, took a glass and walked to the table by the fireplace.
Butterbeer exudes a strong buttery aroma. Albert takes a sip. It feels a bit like a less greasy hard candy. It is very smooth to drink and has no alcohol. It is more like a kind of drinks.
"How do you feel?" All three looked at Albert in unison.
"It's very common, it's just a drink." Albert looked at the three of them, blinked and said, "It's like you drink Muggle soda drinks. It's not hard to drink, but you're not used to it."
The three looked at each other and couldn't help laughing, as if they would hear such a comment from you.
