Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 667: Follow up
By the way, Ens only walked two steps after coming out of the kitchen, and he heard footsteps coming from a corner not far away. Since it was the evening, and in the middle of the night, people were afraid that even a needle dropped on the ground would spread far away. Hearing the sound of footsteps in his ears, it naturally seemed extremely clear.
He is worried about two points now-first, whether the squeak of the fruit portrait just now has been heard by the other party; and second, where he should hide next.
Just listen to the sound of the footsteps again, and the answer to the first question will be obvious.
It's normal for these little badgers to go to the kitchen to get some food, and they feel like they are at home. After all, there is only a small distance between the two places, but the entire Hogwarts Castle is as big as a small city. If you want to be met by the night-watching professor or Filch, the probability can't be lowered. .
"Oh...what do you do," Ensi has always been courageous, and he is not panicked at the moment, but if he is caught in this way, he will not be happy. "Now it’s the closest to the kitchen. But if you open the portrait again, the other party will definitely hear it. And when the entrance of the common room opens, there is no sound, but from here, knock on the lid of the barrel... Damn, why did the founder of Hufflepuff want it? Fudge a way to open the door so troublesome?"
Little Ensi's head turned fast enough, and these thoughts only stayed in his mind for a moment, before he threw them all aside.
Naturally, he also knows that instead of having time to complain, he might as well quickly find a solution that will work.
Of course, Ens’ time at Hogwarts was too short. He didn't know that if the common rooms of other colleges wanted to open, there would be more noise than Hufflepuff's side.
However, time waits for no one. Ensi only hesitated for a few seconds, before he had time to figure out a good way to go around, the sound of footsteps seemed to be very close to the corner.
He made a correct judgment just now. There is only one corridor without any fork in the road. As long as the other person turns a corner, he can have a panoramic view of everything in this corridor.
"There is no way, I can only try to hide it first..."
Even if hiding in this almost unobstructed corridor is definitely a bad idea, when there is no choice, this seems to be his only way out.
At the next moment when the decision was made, Ens leaped decisively against the wall and went deeper into the corridor.
For the Hufflepuffs who often go in and out here, everything in this corridor can be said to be well understood. Although Ensi hasn't been in school for a long time, at least this corridor is quite familiar.
He rubbed the wall forward and lightly trot, while paying attention to the left and right, he found that there was really nothing suitable for Tibetans.
In desperation, he simply raised a corner of a tapestry on the side of the corridor and got in with his back against the cold brick wall.
To be honest, although this beautifully woven tapestry is big enough, it hangs down from near the top wall of the corridor after all. He drilled in. Although he couldn't see his upper body, but the two legs below were still exposed openly, so that the fool would not see it!
The moment he just hid, a figure came out from the corner on the other end. Seeing his dangling look with his lantern on his back, naturally it was Filch, the janitor who made a big joke in the auditorium not long ago.
When the ecstasy is in effect, it will confuse the spirit and will of the user. But it is not like the Imperius Curse. After the effect fades, the memory of the lost time will not become blurred, but will become as clear as it is vividly visible.
So during this time, even though Filch didn't know who fixed himself, he must be extremely annoyed. Originally, he hated this group of "playing wild and unlearning little ghosts", but now that he came this way, he couldn't mention how irritable he was.
"...If I catch it, I have to hang you on an iron chain and smoke...I haven't forgotten to oil those cute little toys for a day, you damned group...wait and see Right..."
Felch, while talking about himself, slowly walked into the depths of this corridor step by step. Although the underground corridor must be dark this night, he had a lantern in his hand. If he walked near Ensi's hiding place, he would immediately find the pair of unusually garish legs under the tapestry.
Ens touched the wand around his waist, but after a little thought, he dropped his hand.
His current spellcasting is not stable, and he has not learned many spells, and his usual practice is more inclined to dueling spells. And I have been practicing for a whole day today, and I haven't even recovered yet! No one can tell if it will go wrong if it is used at this time.
Furthermore, night tours are actually not a big deal, but if you use a spell to deal with the Hogwarts janitor, the nature of the matter is different.
However, he couldn't think of a good way for a while, but Filch obviously wouldn't give him time.
As the other party got closer and closer, Ensi, who was always paying attention to the footsteps, couldn't help showing a trace of anxiety. To be honest, his current method of hiding seems really stupid, if someone knows... With his pride, it would be better to show up directly in front of Filch!
"...Damn it, be punished if you are punished! What's the big deal!"
Just when he saw from the lower edge of the tapestry that the light of the lantern was about to spread to the back of his instep, he gritted his teeth silently and planned to stand out bachelor.
But in the next second, Ensi subconsciously touched his pocket, suddenly his eyes lit up, and then he shrank his toes slightly. While avoiding the light range as much as possible, he took out a chocolate from his pocket. Before he could peel off the tin foil packaging, he stuffed it into his mouth and bit it hard.
When a fragrant and sweet chocolate smell spread from his mouth, it was almost accompanied by the wonderful feeling he had throughout the day today, and once again filled his whole body. And the atrium in his chest, which was gradually blocked by anxiety, immediately became clear and bright.
What should I do now? Isn't that obvious!
A kind of unique self-confidence engulfed Ens's thinking, and gave his right hand an almost instinctive command-draw out the magic wand, and waved at the pastry portrait beside the wooden barrels on the opposite side.
As a Hogwarts freshman who is still within the scope of common sense, Ens does not have high-end silent spell skills. But he doesn't need to cast a decent curse now-he only needs to make a little movement in the portrait, and it will be enough to achieve his goal.
Sure enough, a chaotic magical power swept past the portrait, twisting it slightly, but it also made a suspicious noise.
Firch, who was always refreshing in the evenings of the past few days, turned his head abruptly when he heard the sound, and the lantern in his hand leaned against the wooden barrel opposite without hesitation. He wanted to see if there was any kid who dared to play hide-and-seek under his nose.
However, what Ensi was waiting for was the moment Filch turned his head!
I saw him slam his wand violently on the other side of the corridor where the light is barely visible, and he uttered a spell in this quiet place very boldly...
"Floating into the air."
His curse is not loud, but this corridor is too quiet. Let alone speak, even if you move your steps a little harder, you will be heard clearly.
However, Ensi, who ate a piece of Fortune Tablet chocolate, has an indescribable transparency in his heart-his behavior is absolutely correct!
So, just as Filch turned around when he heard someone chanting a spell, the tapestry that was blocking Ensi's upper body moved suddenly. Under the control of the Levitating Curse, it shrank into a ball, rushed straight towards Filch, and when the opponent was suddenly taken aback~IndoMTL.com~ But it turned abruptly. , And flew off against the ground in the direction where Filch came.
This sudden shock made Filch's heartbeat suddenly speed up a lot, and even a layer of cold sweat appeared on his bald forehead.
But after all, he has been a janitor at Hogwarts for so long, and he has experienced Fred and George's harassment of mischievous geniuses. What the **** hasn't been seen?
In a blink of an eye, he reacted to it--sure enough, there were students who wandered at night! And that student not only played a trick on himself, but also wanted to run!
Filch immediately rounded his eyes, slammed his yellow teeth, turned around with the lantern, and chased him back. He could see that the shadow was very fast, and from a distance, it had become a little shadowy in the dim corridor, but he could barely capture a back figure.
However, Filch didn't realize that his so-called "student who wandered at night" was actually just a finely woven tapestry hung on the wall. As for Ens, who directed this escape scene, he probably took advantage of this opportunity and sneaked toward the entrance of the Hufflepuff common room...Has it?
No, surprisingly, not only did he not take the opportunity to go back to the bedroom, but instead he controlled the tapestry and followed Filch in the dark behind him.
If ordinary people had such a good opportunity, they would have gone away long ago. But only wizards who are proficient in potions know that people who have taken a blessing potion can't use common sense in the world to guess, they usually have some unique and strange ideas.
For example, the current Ensi, he originally wanted to sneak back to the bedroom directly. But when he took the first step, he somehow came up with a thought-he should follow!
