From Azkaban To Hogwarts

Chapter 225 Drawings and Bets

Nothing appears…

This result shocked William a little.

According to previous speculation, this place may not appear when someone is using it - but William just tested it, and no one entered in the middle.

'Wait! ’

'I was just thinking of where Ginny hid her things - and what Lockhart told me was exactly where the Ravenclaw Diadem was originally hidden! ’

‘The problem with the word hiding? ’

'The diadem was found, so the diadem is no longer hidden, so the room can be found, but where Ginny hid her things... this word is too general. What Lockhart took may not be the only one, even if a hair falls out Luo can also be said to be hidden in a room...Items that are still hidden are still protected by the word hidden...'

A strange inference appeared in William's mind, and for the sake of experiment, he began to try another keyword.

'Where Ravenclaw's diadem was originally hidden...'

This time the door opened, but William was in no hurry to enter.

'Interesting, the word hidden itself is protected by the magic of granting the request? ’

'We will continue testing later - this house needs to be tested in more places than I thought. Who can use such exaggerated magic that can be called a miracle? ’

With this thought in mind, William pushed open the door Lockhart mentioned.

Then - he froze.

In a room the size of a cathedral, the beams of light cast by the high windows looked like a city lined with high walls.

Even the auditorium, the largest room in the castle, is not that big, and the library is even smaller than this huge room - it almost forms a community here.

His previous guess was correct. Not only these students have discovered this room. In the nearly one thousand years since the founding of Hogwarts, countless students have discovered this room and stuffed their own things in it. Its number.

‘The safe deposit boxes in Azkaban are not that complete. ’ William looked at the rags around him and couldn’t help but complain.

There's no way I can't stop complaining, and there shouldn't be too many things involving black magic - a rusty sword and a bloody axe, all kinds of messy books, broken chairs or broken chairs that are used as targets for black magic attacks. Dummies, everything.

'There might even be rags that the Dark Lord and his gang used. ’ William guessed, then took out a small bottle of medicine from his pocket and put it on the shelf.

‘Experiment again. ’

He left the room without exploring further.

'I'm looking for the room where Professor William hid his things...'

Passed by three times - found nothing.

Change the password - I want the room where I hide my things.

This time the door appeared, the same one that opened last time.

'Interesting, really interesting - the hidden room points to one? ’

William did not use the medicine, nor did he continue to investigate.

"Then, let's do the experiment again." He exited the room - "This time I need a room that no one can enter except Professor William."

This time I opened a small room without any accumulation.

A new password was discovered just like that.

'Not enough, you have to experiment with loopholes!'

William ignored the room and left quickly. He was going to find a tool man to experiment again.

——

"Professor, I'm here, what do you need me to do?"

Percy panted and ran after the painting, which made William smile.

"It's a bit of a personal mission, Percy. I need an assistant I can trust." William looked at Percy with a smile, "It's a bit of a waste of your vacation time. I will make up for this subsidy privately."

"No need, Professor, really." Percy looked like a New Year's kid.

"You should get it," William couldn't help but stuff an envelope with three galleons into him. "I'm still getting a salary for going to class, kid. Labor should be respected."

After giving the money, William felt at ease - "Okay, Percy, now you have changed your name. Your name is no longer Percy Weasley, you are now called Professor William."

"professor?"

"Listen to me, call this name now to deepen your impression, and then walk around here three times, thinking about opening the room that belongs to me, Professor William, every time."

This order was strange, but Percy carried it out quite seriously - as Professor Binns said, Percy was the most serious of all the students.

'one two three. ’

The door appeared, and William took Percy in to check it out - unfortunately, it was the one William said he wanted to open.

"This magic can be exploited in the right way," William nodded, without any frustration, and began to pull Percy to experiment with the next loophole that could be found.

'Those guys should really stay in Azkaban...'

After half a day of experiments, when Percy, who had cooperated well and didn't ask too many questions, was sent away, William couldn't help but cursed secretly. He, a guy who is not very good at learning, could find so many big and small problems in the magic of the Room of Requirement...

Although complaining like this is a bit like a church apprentice starving to death, William can imagine that with a little comparison - the magical world's unreliable financial network, if those people are allowed to find loopholes wantonly, I am afraid that the magical society will not be able to survive long ago. It collapsed.

"Fred, the holiday ends the day after tomorrow!"

"I know." Fred responded with a look of despair on his face as he lay on the bed.

“A whole spring break, a whole spring break night in confinement—doesn’t Professor William have something of his own to do?”

"Yes," Fred said in a weak voice, "such as attending classes and giving out papers, but the subjects are us."

"Dong dong dong!"

The door of their dormitory was knocked open, and then an unfamiliar child shouted cheerfully outside the door, "Brother Weasley, Professor William asked me to inform you that you don't have to go to confinement tonight!"

As if some spell had been cast, the two salted fish lying there turned into lively catfish.

"Let's go to the Room of Requirement!"

Fred directly grabbed his brother, "We have to study it carefully before school starts!"

"Aren't you afraid of meeting the professor?"

"I'll meet you when I meet you. I found out through inquiry that Professor William has been hanging out in the Room of Requirement recently!"

Fred said firmly, "The sudden lifting of the confinement must have made a big discovery. I guess the things have been moved to the office. We can just study that room!"

"But if Bi doesn't move away, we will definitely be arrested, and we will probably be detained for a long time again-" George joked, without any fear in his eyes.

"The Room of Requirement has been closed, and besides-" Fred responded with a smile, "When did we stop going on adventures because we were afraid of being locked up?"

——

Their worries were unnecessary, because William really didn't have any free time to watch over the students now.

He has figured out the magic from the unique angle used by the Dark Lord on the blackboard, and has transcribed the useful content, which is currently being deciphered.

But those things were of little value, they were all analysis of black magic and so on. The real time-killer was the huge room where William had not finished sorting out things.

But even in that room, the best parts of it were searched by William.

William ignored all the messy potions, utensils, magic props, and cursed gadgets. Except when he was in solitary confinement, he was busy rummaging through the stacks for books that might be useful.

Although most of the books are in the library, William still found a bunch of books that did not exist in the library. Now these books have been resurrected from the dust and are happily decorating the bookshelf in William's living room.

'Just looking at the bookshelf, I'm definitely a dark wizard. ’

Holding his wand, William carefully inspected his harvest - these books that are prohibited books for ordinary students are not safe just by putting them here. He must carefully give these books that have only undergone preliminary protection measures a second pass. times processing.

The books that can make sounds will shut up and calm down, the books that can release curses will be tied up with magic ropes, and the books that can fight will be tied up a few more times, and then some Dumbledore's chocolates will be stuffed next to these books. Frog card – it really works.

Although the chocolate frog cards themselves don't have very powerful magic, they can really shut up those books - 'This is the Azkaban book collecting technique that is neither scientific nor magical. ’

William always felt that this was a joke made by his professor, but he tried it today. Although the effect is not as good as expensive insulation materials, it really works.

——

"George, we're here!"

While William was busy sorting out his suddenly increased collection of books, two more teenagers appeared at the door of the Room of Requirement.

"It's good that we're here, but what exactly are we going to do?"

"Looking for the content that Professor William has been busy with, I secretly bribed Ginny. She told me that Percy has been spending a lot of money on dates these days."

Fred looked proud, and obviously didn't think there was anything wrong with paying his sister to find out about his brother's dates - but unfortunately, the twins always had the same point of view.

"Damn it, why are we all working on the professor's side and we can't get a single Nat?"

George rolled his eyes, but he just complained - he knew why he was in solitary confinement.

"Come on, we're not pursuing that, but what about—wait?"

Fred was about to say that they didn't value Galleons, but he suddenly paused.

"Nat—yeah, we need money, right?"

"I thought you would know this when you wake up every day, my brother," George said in an exaggerated tone, "Don't forget, we are buying various materials for experiments, so we can't wait to divide one Knut into two and spend it. !”

"Yes, we need all kinds of materials to complete our dream. The current balance of funds is still considerable, but it is far, far away - I mean, did you remember that we heard the professor say not to believe it before? Something thoughtful?”

"Yes - but Ginny has been arrested, and Lockhart is also lying in the hospital..." George was stunned for a moment.

"You mean that?"

"Yes, that one!"

"You're crazy. That's the care that seniors show to their juniors. Didn't we say we would give it to the adventurous Gryffindor who needs him?"

"Yes, we never thought that thing should be occupied by us. But don't forget, it has a mind!"

"That was just a little mission. We completed it step by step, and it also revealed all its secrets in front of us!"

“…”

"I remember that we seemed to have had an argument about this issue - but I don't remember it, but I think we did."

"Forgotten!"

The two looked at each other and laughed.

"Well, the professor is doing it for the students' benefit. Maybe we were just coveting the Galleons that Percy got..."

"Maybe we're discussing Ginny's amnesia?"

"Leave it to the professor. I believe he won't use that thing casually."

"I still feel it's inappropriate... No... If the professor can find students at will, then we are doomed..."

"Then let's make a bet with the professor. He won't be able to find out... the seniors' prank... Filch didn't notice it, and Dumbledore didn't find it either... Let's see how strong the new professor is?"

——

"Eh? Didn't I inform you yesterday that you would not be detained?"

William was surprised by the sudden visit of the two people. He really couldn't imagine why the two people would come to his room when they were not in confinement.

"Professor, that's it..."

The two looked at their brother, hoping that the other would come up and explain--in the end, Fred couldn't resist and stepped forward.

"Professor, we want to make a bet with you."

"bet?"

William looked at the two of them in surprise. He really couldn't imagine why these two children had so much courage to come over - the students were involved in gambling and were in solitary confinement. How could they just come here and give them away?

"What bet?"

Because he was obsessed with studying the newly acquired books, William was too lazy to settle accounts with them - the confinement was annoying.

"Bet that we have the drawings of all the secret passages in Hogwarts."

This was no small bet - even though there were two children in front of him, even Filch secretly told William that these two people knew more secret passages than he did.

This is what William wants, but he can't coerce and induce students to hand over this. How can any professor do this?

"Bet -" Fred originally wanted to take out the picture, but in the end he hesitated - they couldn't just hand over the most precious treasure left by their predecessors' pranks to the professor, especially since William was so evil.

Fortunately, his mind worked quickly, "I bet on a potion. Professor, you said that our potion was not good enough. Then I want to see what a good potion looks like. If, professor, you develop the effect we mentioned, the drawing will I’ll sell it to you for a hundred galleons, but if you don’t do it, you can only take it for three hundred galleons!”

‘This is different from what you said! ’

George communicated with his eyes, but did not dare to speak out, and he was also frightened by Fred's huge appetite.

One hundred galleons!

"It's a bet. Give me the drawings and ask for them."

Just when he hesitated, William agreed without hesitation - his reward for this secret room incident was one thousand galleons, and the blueprint of the castle's secret passage was completely worth the one hundred galleons.

Not to mention anything else, Filch could get more than 200 galleons from selling this thing... The old administrator's obsession with the secret passage is beyond words...

As for the three hundred galleons - if he was really troubled by the students, he deserved it!
