Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 669
The night gradually darkened.
The night at Hogwarts Castle was dim. Except for the light from the patrolling Filch lantern, most of the other places were in darkness.
Of course, the passage of Hufflepuff's bedroom underground is also pitch black.Coupled with the intricacies here, even the old students who have lived here for several years will not go on unfamiliar routes after the lights are turned off.
But at this moment, Ensi was feeling the darkness all the way, involuntarily going deep into it.
He didn't know why he wanted to do this, he only knew that the wonderful feeling was still guiding him, asking him to follow that premonition step by step.He knew better that as long as he followed this feeling, he would surely get some unexpected benefits in the end.
It was like in the corridor outside the common room before, knowing that he shouldn't have kept up with Filch, but in the end he was surprised to get a chance to cause trouble.
"...Speaking of which, if it weren’t for finding a scapegoat for Slytherin, it wouldn’t be good to wait for Filch to report the matter to the principal." Ensi thought as he walked, "Use the tapestry to lure him. Go, it can only be a temporary escape at best, but once he finds that he has been deceived... even if he can't find me for a while, tomorrow the principal will ask the group of house elves and he will understand everything..."
Yes, if no one mentions it, house elves will not take the initiative to report.But since the place where Filch was played is at the entrance of the Hufflepuff common room, if this matter is checked, it will naturally be checked from the most likely place, and it will be sooner or later that it will be exposed.
Time was urgent at the time, and Ens certainly didn't have time to think about it. It was a blessing to be able to use the tapestry to distract Filch.If it weren't for the exceptionally good effect of the elixir, that trace of inspiration had just led him to throw the matter on Slytherin's head, and his quick-and-witted way of avoiding disaster would be completely in vain.
Now, when Ens once again felt the peculiar premonition at the door of the dormitory, he naturally chose to go with the flow without hesitation.
To be honest, just because of the strong feeling this time, he has to take a good look at what "lucky" is waiting for him in the end.
This underground passage is still so dim.The deeper you go, the more dimly Ensi's eyes appear, and when you reach the back, you can even say that you are out of sight.
However, the effectiveness of the blessing potion still maintained his intuition, so that he did not miss a step.Even if the twists and turns here are hidden in the darkness, he will inevitably turn around exactly every corner, and walk through these passages seemingly irregular.
"……is it here?"
Suddenly, he muttered to himself, and then stopped.And his right hand peeked to his side almost at the same time, grabbing a palm-sized, smooth and round hard object.
"Click—"
This is the sound made when the bolt is twisted. It seems that what he is holding is a door handle.
Ensi nodded to himself, confirmed the guidance in his heart, then turned around and stepped out steadily.
"Click."
When his hand left the cool handle, the door leaf he couldn't even see was closed again.
"Fluorescence flickers."
This is a spell taught to students in the first grade, and it is also the second practical spell after the floating spell.In fact, even if you don't eat chocolate, Ensi can still use it smoothly, but the light from the tip of his stick is obviously much brighter than usual.
And just the next second after the magic wand glowing curse took effect, a room that had accumulated a lot of dust immediately appeared in front of Ensi.
It can be seen that this should have been a residential room of quite a few years, with bed boards, tables and chairs, lampstands and other daily necessities.But perhaps because there was no one living in it for too long, this place has long been turned into an alternative storage room.
Ens stood at the door with a wand in his hand, and took photos from left to right, up and down, and found that the piles of debris here were all pots and pans, some of which had fallen apart a long time ago.
"This room is not a short distance from the current dormitory area." He thought casually, "It seems that at some point in the past, the number of students at Hufflepuff College may have been much greater than it is now. what……"
Of course, this was just a thought by Ensi, he quickly threw this idea aside, and planned to follow the guidance in his heart to go somewhere in this room.However, this time he only took one step and suddenly stopped again.
I saw the magic wand in his hand suddenly hung down, and the ray of light instantly illuminated the ground near him, and a string of footprints that were not his own were immediately revealed.
"Who has been here before?"
Since this room is full of dust accumulated over the years, if someone has walked but has not cleaned up their footprints, it can be seen at a glance.And on the ground at this moment, there are so few quite obvious footprints, which can be seen clearly through the light.
But to be honest, having a few footprints here is actually not a big deal.Students are not forbidden to enter and exit here. If Ens Taon can come, can others not come?
It's just that Ens obviously doesn't think so.
However, he immediately squatted down, stretched out his left index finger and lightly wiped the footprints, then placed it under the light and glanced briefly.
As mentioned before, this is actually a very deep channel. Perhaps it was used a long time ago, but it has been in a semi-abandoned state in recent years.Had it not been for the structure of Hogwarts Castle as a whole, it would have fallen into disrepair if it had fallen into disrepair.
If there is no purpose, who would come here to wander around?
"No matter what benefits you get later, you'll have to pay attention in the future... Maybe someone else knows..." Ensi thought carefully, and secretly added a reminder to himself.
It's always good to be careful, he Ens Taon, that's the kind of person.
"However, judging from the fact that there is dust in the footprints, most of the person has been away for a while. And it is strange that from the door to the center of the room and back to the door from the middle, there are only a few footprints in total. ...What is that guy doing here?"
Because the role of Lucky Chocolate is time-limited, Ensi only thought about it for a moment, and soon buried this concern in his heart.
He came to take advantage of this trip tonight!
After that, Ensi stopped thinking about it, but walked straight to the corner on the right side of the room.
Since there were a lot of messy things blocking the way, and he had to maintain the magic wand to disperse the darkness, so he had to push and kick all the things all over, but the original black clothes with yellow edges. The robe was black and white, and it looked somewhat embarrassed.
However, the tossing was worth it after all. When he knocked down a half-broken wooden shelf directly, a cupboard that was also damaged a lot was revealed.
It's just different from the crunchy and decayed wood products. This cupboard is built directly on the wall with stone bricks. The door of the cupboard is correct, but the inside is barely formed.And on the polished stone-brick cabinet, stacks of silver dishes with faintly visible fine decorations are still placed on it.
It’s just that the objects that were once used to serve food are now only full of dust...If the craftsmen who made them were still alive, I’m afraid they could cry for you on the spot.
However, Ens is of course not interested in feeling these things, he only cares about whether he can get something valuable.With just a glance, he directly stretched his hand to one of the stacks of silver plates and pinched the edge of the bottom plate accurately.
Sure enough, he just dialed it and knew that the silver plate was fixed on it.Then, he squeezed the edge and turned it forcefully. With the mechanism of "click", the cupboard that seemed to be directly on the wall opened like a door.
"It really deserves to be a wizard's castle, as it is written in those storybooks, there is such a hidden secret door..."
Ens was amazed by it, but he didn't know that it was a real novelty to find such a "Muggle-style" secret door in Hogwarts Castle.
Generally speaking, if sorcerers build secret rooms, they usually use all kinds of magic.The more powerful the wizard, the more complex and sophisticated the magic spells will be used to hide the secret tunnels. How can such a purely physical structure that Muggles can design?
But it is this kind of method that most wizards would not think of, but sometimes it can fool the outstanding teachers and students who are born in Hogwarts, right?
Of course, Ensi is just a little wizard who has only recently come into contact with the magic world. Even if he is deep-minded and flexible, he can see that his knowledge is still limited after all.Perhaps one day in the future, he will express a completely different sigh for this strange design, but at this time he will not have that idea.
So, with full curiosity and expectation, he just stepped forward with his wand, and walked in the exposed dim passage.
This is a densely sloping stone steps, the slope is not steep but very long, and it seems to be a spiral downward path.On the outer stone wall of the spiral channel, a handrail groove was dug out in a particularly intimate manner, but now it is already full of dust and stains, and it is impossible to support it.
But because of the amazement in his heart, Ensi didn't feel tired, and walked down quite briskly.
