Hogwarts, where the stars shine

Chapter 50, unexpected meeting



The cold weather in spring can kill young people.There was a bone-chilling chill in the corridor, making people shiver.

As his body trembled, Mesa's chaotic brain began to resume work, and his clever IQ regained the high ground.

Everyone in the Slytherin common room looked confused and indifferent to what was happening around them.The overwhelming sleepiness was obviously caused by someone tampering with her.

Muggles have the fairy tale "Sleeping Beauty", and the wizarding world has similar stories.

Leticia Somnolen, a succubus who lived in the Middle Ages, was jealous of the king's young and beautiful daughter, so she smeared the decoction of living hell on the spindle.

When the spindle coated with medicine stabbed the princess, the beautiful princess fell into a drowsy sleep and could not wake up.

Although there are no spindles in the Slytherin dungeon, everyone looks so sleepy, as if everyone has collectively drank a large pot of living hell potion.

Although Mesa had beautiful thoughts, he did not want to be a sleeping beauty, let alone be kissed awake by a prince with an uplifting potion on his lips.

So after realizing something was wrong, Mesa's first reaction was to stay awake and escape.Escape the sleepy common room and escape the sleepy bugs in your mind.

Mesa didn't know what caused the students to fall asleep collectively. He only knew that when facing danger, finding a way to protect yourself was the most important thing.

What's more, Mesa at this stage is not equipped to deal with this anomaly.

Realizing that something was wrong, why not run away quickly and stay with Slytherin to bury him?

Mesa is not that great, and running away with Lilia beside him is all Mesa's mercy.

"Why are we here?"

Lilia's clear girlish voice echoed in the corridor. She was clearly practicing wand movements in the lounge, but suddenly found herself in the corridor. How could she not make people confused.

Mesa looked at the girl next to her.Although Lilia showed doubts, her dark eyes were clear and clear, no longer dull or sleepy.

He took out a handkerchief from his pocket and put it into Lilia's hand. Mesa said, "Wipe your face first. You look like a little cat now."

After saying that, Mesa held the ebony wand in his hand again and walked forward cautiously.

Although Lilia didn't understand the situation, she followed closely out of trust in Mesa.

"What's going on? Why am I crying when I'm fine?" Lilia asked while wiping her little face, "Also, aren't we in the common room, why did we run into the corridor?"

Lilia Shafiq's little question mark now has many friends, and she has completely forgotten how she cried non-stop just now.

"Everyone is obsessed with thoughts. This situation is very abnormal." Mesa whispered, "So I tried to see if I could stay awake after leaving the lounge."

Fortunately, Mesa made the right bet.

After leaving the common room, Mesa and Lilia both regained consciousness. It seemed that "sleep" was only effective in the common room.

After wiping her tears-stained cheeks, Lilia stuffed the handkerchief into her pocket.She said: "I roughly understand... uh... could you let go first? It hurts a little."

Hearing this, Mesa quickly let go of his hand. His mind was now filled with the abnormalities in the lounge, and he had long forgotten that he was still holding her hand.No wonder it was indescribably awkward when he was handed the veil.

Mesa let go of his hand and continued to move forward, Lilia still following behind him.

Looking at Mesa's narrow back, Lilia felt a sense of loss for some reason.

"Where are we going now?" Lilia asked softly. As she asked, she took out her wand in a similar manner and began to be wary of the dim environment around her.

"Find someone to help." Mesa's answer was concise and to the point.

In the underground corridor in the middle of the night, you can only see the burning torches from a distance. The long corridor that you didn't think of in the past is now full of eerie feeling.

There may be unknown dangers lurking in the darkness that cannot be penetrated by firelight, or in the corners of walls that cannot be penetrated by eyes.

This was the first time Lilia wandered around the castle so late at night, and this was the first time something unusual happened in the common room.In the dim corridor, with the echo of people's footsteps, the 11-year-old girl was inevitably a little scared.

When people are afraid, they unconsciously seek a sense of security.

Just like when you feel scared at night, you will subconsciously curl up into a warm bed.

Unconsciously, Lilia was almost pressed against Mesa, and she even gently held onto Mesa's robe.If Mesa suddenly stopped at this moment, Lilia would never be able to react.

Although the corridor was dark and dark, and the surrounding environment seemed eerie, there was no danger waiting for the two of them.

Soon, Mesa and Lilia came to another corridor and knocked on Snape's door.

The knocking on the door rang in the quiet corridor for a long time, but no one responded at the door.It was unknown whether Snape was not in the room or if he too had fallen into a deep sleep.

"What should we do?" Lilia asked uneasily, "Should we find other professors?"

Boom boom boom!

After giving up the idea of ​​"opening the Alaho Cave", Mesa made one last attempt, but there was still no answer in the office.

After trying to no avail, Mesa no longer hesitated and led Lilia towards the auditorium.

Since Dean Snape is unreliable, then find someone who is reliable.Albus Dumbledore, who could be more suitable than the Headmaster of Hogwarts!

The principal's office is on the eighth floor of the castle. There is a gargoyle at the entrance.

Mesa and Lilia walked out of the cold underground building area of ​​the castle, then climbed up the luxurious marble stairs and rushed towards the eighth floor of the castle.

The two of them walked quickly along the corridor, the moonlight streaming in from the high window and streaking across the ground.But when they hurried up the stairs to the fourth floor of the castle, Mesa and Lilia turned the corner and met Ai, and the two were discovered.

Meow!The sharp and piercing cat meowing seemed even more terrifying at this night.

The scrawny Mrs. Loris appeared in front of Mesa and Lilia with cat steps.The bulging eyes like light bulbs reflect the moonlight, and the back is arched, ready to attack at any time.

It seemed like only a few seconds passed before Filch ran over with a sputtering sound.

"Students stay up at night and wander around the castle!" Filch shouted excitedly. He had already thought of how to punish the two people who violated the curfew.

Mesa didn't want to bother explaining to Mr. Administrator, so he took Lilia's wrist again and led the girl to run wildly through the castle under the moonlight.

The picture is not beautiful at all, but very embarrassing.Mrs. Norris's shrill screams and Filch's heavy breathing were not far behind the two of them, and they couldn't shake them away.

"Mesa Black, I see you!" Filch's tone contained a hint of hatred, "I want to hang you from the ceiling, and I want to immerse you in the cold black lake." !”

Probably because of the deep love and deep responsibility, Filch was so angry that he didn't hesitate to speak.Looking at that posture, I'm afraid Mesa will need to be subjected to a full set of the top ten tortures in order to relieve the hatred in his heart.

As for Mesa's explanation of shouting while running, Argus Filch didn't believe it at all.

Mr. Administrator did not believe a word of "I have something important to see Professor Dumbledore" or "A student is in danger".The headmaster of Hogwarts is Albus Dumbledore!

Mesa and Lilia fled, Filch chased them, but they were unable to fly.

It wasn't until the two of them ran to the sixth floor of the castle, panting, that Mesa and Lilia escaped the tragic fate of being taken to the administrator's office.

"What are you two doing here?" Flying Bat Ke... no, Professor Snape asked.

In the past, Mesa particularly disliked Snape's whispering way of speaking, but tonight Mesa felt like he was hearing the sounds of nature, and his fairy voice was floating in the air.

"Professor...Professor, something happened..." Lilia said while breathing heavily.

At this time, Filch and Mrs. Norris also arrived on the sixth floor. Filch said: "Nothing will happen to Professor Snape. It will happen to you two."

Mesa had already taken a deep breath. He was about to explain to Snape what was going on in the Slytherin common room tonight, but he heard the footsteps of another person.

"What happened?"

Steele Martin came out of a corner and asked curiously.
