Hogwarts Asylum

50. Asking Malfoy for help?



In the secret passage, the twins stopped laughing when they saw Harry frowning.

Although they didn't quite understand why Harry was unhappy, it was not polite to laugh next to him at this time.

At this time, one of them pointed at the map and shouted: "Look here..."

Another one answered tactfully: "Filch is gone!"

"Shall we go out and have a look?"

"'Oluolin' is right outside, where Filch was just now." Harry muttered.

Harry struggled for a while. If O'Loughlin faced the corridor at this time, he would be discovered!

At this time, Fred took out a monocular: "I guess you may need this."

Just when Harry was wondering why he needed the telescope, George took the telescope and broke it casually, turning the telescope into a "" shape.

"How about it? Not bad. We got the inspiration from the Muggle periscope."

“It allows you to see around the corner without sticking your head out.”

"Only 5 Galleons each."

"No, Fred, five galleons is too high. I don't think anyone will buy it."

"The telescope in our astronomy class costs 10 Galleons!"

"We can't see that far, they will think we are cheating money."

"Aren't we just...well, Harry, let me lend you this first."

Harry took the telescope and came to the exit of the secret passage. One of the twins held the Marauder's Map, and the other helped Harry push the large mirror through a small crack.

Through the telescope, Harry saw O'Loughlin facing the door, probably because Filch had just left and O'Loughlin was about to open the door.

"How about it? Professor O'Loughlin's back is turned to us?" asked the man opposite the door.

"Yes, he's about to open the door," Harry replied softly.

"Then I'll take a look too."

At this time, O'Loughlin "saw" a red head emerging from the mirror not far behind him, and he knew it was time.

"How are you? Are you sure it's Professor O'Loughlin?" the one holding the map asked.

"It's really him! Isn't it shown on the map?"

"Yes, the school hospital is still on the map." After saying that, he put down the map and stuck out his head.

In the eyes of Harry and the three of them, O'Loughlin opened the door and saw a ferocious-looking, terrifying big dog with three heads rushing towards them, but the chain around its neck was quickly stretched, completely It could not hurt Olorin who was still standing at the door.

Lu Wei was a little irritated. Just now he smelled the smell of someone outside the door. Although the smell was very light, it was indeed a human smell. At first, he thought it was coming to deliver food to him. Although he had just eaten dinner not long ago, But it doesn’t mind extra meals either.Unexpectedly, the man stood outside for a long time, but refused to open the door and come in. During this period, a man with a musty smell also stayed outside for a while.As time passed, Lu Wei became more and more irritable, so when there was finally a sound on the door in front of him, Lu Wei gathered his strength and rushed forward.

"Good evening, Louie. Hagrid and Dumbledore asked me to say hello to you."

Behind the mirror, Harry stared at this scene dumbfounded, while the twins who had retracted sounded very excited.

"What do I see?"

"A big dog with three heads!"

"I dare say that when other people see it, they will be frightened by its ferocity and wet their pants."

The twins were excitedly discussing the three-headed dog, and after a while, Harry also shrank in because O'Loughlin walked in and closed the door.

"Harry, do you know what's behind that door?" the twins asked curiously.

Harry shook his head. He had never thought that the danger that Professor Dumbledore said when school started would be such a ferocious monster, with its three bloody mouths and terrifying fangs...

"Professor O'Loughlin went in?"

"Yes," Harry, who was distracted by his thoughts, came back to his senses, "He seems to have known that the monster was inside from the beginning."

"Maybe that's what he raised?"

"Maybe he's here to feed the dogs?"

"But that monster doesn't seem to know Orolin!" Harry retorted, "Besides, why did Professor Dumbledore put it here?"

"Perhaps the big dog is guarding some treasure?"

"And Professor O'Loughlin is here to steal?"

"Good reasoning, Fred."

"You too, George."

"Hahahahaha."

Hearing what the twins said, Harry immediately thought of the newspaper he saw at Hagrid's last Friday!

Although Hagrid didn't say it, Harry always felt that the theft of Gringotts must be related to the small package that Hagrid took him to get!

So, what on earth would make someone willing to risk getting caught to rob a wizarding bank?

And is Olorin really here to steal things?If so, how dare he meet Filch?But if not, why would he come here in the middle of the night?

Harry felt that he knew too little about the wizarding world. Looking at the twins who were amusing themselves while talking, Harry shook his head. Maybe he should find someone more reliable to ask.

Harry began to search for a reliable candidate in his mind, but soon he shook his head violently to drive the thoughts out of his head, because the first person he thought of was Malfoy!

It would be better to find Hermione than Malfoy.

Yes, Hermione!

Harry's eyes lit up. During this period of time, Hermione's points for Gryffindor were not as good as Malfoy's, but they were still a lot. And although Hermione, like him, had lived in the Muggle world since she was a child, she always She is holding various large magic books and reading them. She must know a lot of things!

Right, that is it!

Harry immediately decided to talk to Hermione about Gringotts tomorrow.

The murderer in the Forbidden Forest cannot be left behind, but now that we have the Marauder's Map, this matter will surely come to light soon.

"Is Professor O'Loughlin already out?"

"He just went in, right?"

Harry came to his senses and hurriedly took the telescope and set it up to the edge of the mirror.

In his field of vision, there was no movement at the door at the end of the corridor, but Harry was not in a hurry. He was prepared to keep an eye on it until Eurolin came out.

Oh yes.

Harry stepped back again, groped around on his body, took out a handful of golden Galleons from his right pocket, counted five, and handed them to the twins.

"No, Harry, you are one of the defenders of our school rules. I can lend you the telescope."

The twins pushed Harry's hand holding the galleons back.

"I bought it, I need it." Harry put the Galleons into one of their hands without any explanation, turned around and continued to stare.

In the secret passage, Fred was a little overwhelmed with the galleons. This was the largest sum of money they had received at once in the past few years. The price he mentioned before was actually just a joke.

In fact, like George, he didn't think that a metal cylinder plus a few small mirrors and lenses could be sold for such a high price.
