From Azkaban To Hogwarts

"Go to the stairs—but why go to the stairs?"

"I shouldn't care about that, the eighth floor, I want to go to the eighth floor."

"Cock, blood, yes, resurrection, resurrection."

"Blood, eighth floor, resurrection?"

"The tapestry on the eighth floor, who am I?"

"Going around? Why go around?"

Countless conflicting thoughts were floating in Ginny's mind, and she couldn't even tell who she was and what she wanted to do - she just felt that she should be familiar with these, but in fact she was not familiar at all.

After wandering around the eighth floor aimlessly, she was a little tired of her current actions.

But a voice kept telling her that she should keep going.

When she was struggling, a door appeared on the wall, and she subconsciously walked in. Then, following the advice of the voice in her head, she walked unswervingly towards it.

"Take it, it is your most beloved treasure, just as you did in the past, take it up as you used to pick it up, your most beloved treasure."

Yes, that is mine. I have discovered it since the beginning of school. It is the most precious treasure in the world. I use various methods to obtain enlightenment from it and master precious knowledge that other people cannot even imagine.

It’s been going on since the beginning of school. I’ve secretly walked this road countless times, haven’t I?

Ginny smiled and picked up the tattered crown - it was originally worn on the head of an old wizard statue. It matched so well that it looked like the three of them together wouldn't sell for a Sickle.

'My most precious treasure is such a rag? ’

The girl's disgust suddenly broke out. She couldn't imagine why she was happy to wear such a tattered thing on her head.

But the memory in her mind told her that this was her most precious treasure, more precious than her eyes.

‘I seem to have been here once? No, have you been here many times? ’

The headache made her unable to continue thinking, and she immediately put the torment on her head.

The cool touch made her feel as if she had immersed her body in sea water in summer—no, it should have been immersed in hot springs in winter. It was a strange feeling, but it did not cause her any discomfort.

"How dare you! How dare I?"

The voice in his head seemed to be noisy, but then it became quieter as the broken crown on his head gave off a gentle heat.

'It seems like a spell cast by me? No - I've touched it many times, but how could I let it go? ’

The confused memory started again, but the voice in my head appeared in time.

"It's time for you to run away, take your most precious treasure and leave this school secretly."

‘Yes, yes, take the secret path, the secret path that no one knows. ’

"What am I doing?"

Another voice sounded from the bottom of her heart, her own voice.

"Isn't the other voice very angry? Doesn't he want to kill Filch? Didn't he bring me here once?"

"No, I've been here many times. I discovered it since the first day of school——"

The chaotic memories made Ginny feel like her head was about to burst. There was a sudden burning sensation on the crown, suppressing the voice that emerged from her heart.

‘Yes, it’s time to go, it’s time to go! ’

She stood up and took the crown off her head - a difficult act, like pulling someone out of a winter quilt.

With a bit of reluctance, she rushed towards the door with the crown under her arm. The secret passage was very close to here, as long as——

"Collapse!"

…

"Collapse!"

Several spells that were almost connected together hit her at the same time as the sound sounded——

'Finally we stopped arguing...'

These were Ginny's last thoughts as she passed out.

——

"Caught, caught!"

People hiding in the shadows jumped out.

"Well, let me tell you, if there is a secret passage or secret room, there must be obvious road signs around it, otherwise there is no way to find it."

"Come on, it's obvious that the twins noticed the hanging ornaments falling on the floor here, and then decided that this place fits the environment of the secret passage, so they squatted there."

"What I said is fine, Weasley, don't you think so?"

The person who was refuted turned around angrily and looked at the person who had done the most credit in this search.

However, the Weasley brothers were silent. The two of them looked at each other with surprised expressions on their faces.

"Any questions?"

Before the person who asked the question had finished speaking, someone who couldn't hold himself back ran over and took a look at the person who was knocked down - "Oh my God, a first grader, Weasley's sister!"

‘Isn’t this the wrong arrest? ’

Such thoughts appeared in most people's minds - many people guessed that the people who had the free time to commit such a big thing must be the group of seventh graders who were about to graduate, but the first graders had fooled them for so long, It was really unacceptable to them.

"It shouldn't be her, right?"

Finally someone raised this issue, but met with clear opposition,

"Of course she is! My little sister - we have never discovered that secret room!"

Fred said in a rather proud tone.

"Should she be handed over to the professor?"

"Of course. Otherwise, why would we have worked so hard for so long? Just kill two chickens and be put in confinement for half a month. It can be regarded as getting the first lesson of Gryffindor in advance."

George's natural answer elicited cheers and whistles from the crowd.

——

In the office, William was giving orders to the prefect who had been summoned by the portrait - he knew very clearly which priority should be given to Mr. Filch's investigation or the arrest of the suspect.

"The prefects work in pairs, stand front to back, and are not allowed to separate at will. Although Miss Weasley is only a first-year student, her skills in using magic spells are almost at the level of a graduate. Although it is not clear whether it is talent or other reasons. It’s caused by this, but I hope you won’t look down on her because she is a first-year student.”

"The seventh-grade prefects each recommend two good experts. I will inform them to cooperate in the search operation. After discovering Miss Weasley, they will immediately use spells such as the coma spell or the petrification spell to control her. Her control magic may even affect me. Such adult wizards can be easily let go, you must be more vigilant..."

Such an order made the prefects couldn't help but focus on Gryffindor - Percy looked confused.

'Miss Weasley? My sister? Bring down adult wizards? ’

Because the professor's remarks were so scary, he even forgot to question why Ginny was being hunted.

Just when he mustered up the courage to ask questions, there was a knock on the office door.

"Professor! It's us!"

There were noisy shouts outside the door, but Percy heard very clearly the voices of the two brothers who had brought shame to the family.

"We've got the killer! It's Ginny!"

The twins' happy voices came from outside the door.

ps: There is one more chapter.

By the way, I promised to join the group yesterday and got one. Although I don’t know what the use is... I posted it as soon as I finished writing it, and there was no prompt...
