Hogwarts: Please Graduate Soon

Chapter 26 The Unspoken Rules Passed Down For Thousands Of Years

The Weasley twins paid the price for their arrogance.

Originally, the two of them were just threatening each other and didn't really want revenge. They just wanted to see Wayne begging for mercy.

However, he survived and was caught by Professor McGonagall who had just arrived in the cafeteria.

She originally felt something was wrong when she saw her little lion standing on the long table of Hufflepuff Academy.

When I got closer and heard it, my face was blue with anger.

A student for three years, he actually threatened a new kid who just entered school.

When Wayne told her, the twins actually said that they weren't even afraid of Dumbledore knowing.

Not afraid, right?

I appreciate your willingness to die rather than surrender.

The confinement that was supposed to end after wiping the trophy three times was super doubled.

After wiping the trophy, they also had to make a handwritten copy of famous Gryffindor alumni and their life stories.

When they heard this punishment, the twins almost fainted.

Three times!

Those books combined are at least dozens of inches thick!

The two of them didn't care to settle the score with Wayne. Under the fierce gaze of Professor McGonagall, they returned to the Gryffindor table dejectedly.

"You definitely did it on purpose." Cedric made his judgment with great certainty after watching the whole process.

Wayne continued to eat the sandwich and said calmly: "Everyone dies, and some people need a little help."

Cedric was speechless.

How did this guy get Hufflepuff?

Sorting Hat, you are blind!

After breakfast, Hermione stood beside Wayne in a lively manner, letting Norman and Toby give a thumbs up quietly from an angle that the little witch couldn't see.

It's really amazing. There was a cute little witch following me when I first entered school.

Although Hermione's hair is a bit messy, but that's all, Hanako is definitely the cutest thing without showing her teeth.

The other freshmen saw them gathering together and asked curiously.

Then the team immediately grew stronger, with more than a dozen little badgers surrounding Cedric. In desperation, he could only call a few friends to help and divided into several teams.

A group of people walked out of the passage in a mighty manner and came to the teaching area.

"There are a total of one hundred and forty-two staircases in the entire castle, and their shape and position will change at any time."

"Perhaps sometimes you are walking up the stairs from the third to the fourth floor, but when you step on it, the stairs will change their excuse and take you directly to the top floor."

"To be honest, I didn't understand the pattern in the past two years. Especially on Friday, these stairs were like crazy."

"Even senior students who are about to graduate sometimes get lost if they are not careful."

Cedric took Wayne and Hermione to the third floor, and his two roommates followed the other seniors.

"Pay attention to this staircase. Don't use force or run when walking on it, otherwise it will take you directly to the eighth floor."

"There are four more staircases like this, uh... I can't remember exactly, maybe there are more..."

Hermione nodded vigorously and even took out a notebook to write down.

Wayne was a little bored.

"Cedric, are you just fooling your brother with this? Why don't you give me something useful?"

"What do you mean?" Cedric looked at him blankly, not understanding what Wayne was referring to.

"Let's take a shortcut to the secret passage outside the castle."

"What are you talking about!" Cedric criticized righteously: "How could I possibly know such a thing."

"Wayne, it's wrong to break school rules." Hermione seriously criticized Wayne's dangerous idea.

"If you haven't been caught, you haven't violated it." Wayne waved his hand, not caring.

Cedric patted him on the shoulder and said nothing.

He figured out the school's most basic rules when he first entered school, and it was only at the end of last semester that he gradually understood all of this.

Why is Filch a squib as the college warden?

Why is it that as long as students are not caught in front of their faces, even if the teacher sees their backs, they will not be deducted points or punished.

This is the unspoken rule of Hogwarts that has been passed down for thousands of years. It is a battle of wits and courage between teachers and students, and it is also a form of exercise.

Many people only gradually understand the secrets of this place after they graduate or even start a family, so they regret it before they do so.

How many wonderful lives did they miss?

Cedric smiled and said, "Since you said so, let me show you some of my tricks."

He led Hermione and Wayne to an empty picture frame, and with three taps of his wand, the frame turned into a real door.

"Exit through here and you can reach the bushes near the Quidditch pitch."

"Time is limited, I won't take you to the next location."

Next, Cedric introduced two secret passages to Wayne, one leading to the other side of the castle, which could be used to hide from Filch and his cat, Mrs. Norris, when they were discovered during a night trip.

The other one leads from the fifth floor to the second floor and can be used for traveling.

Hermione's world view gradually collapsed. She originally thought that Cedric was the same type of person as her, who loved learning and was ranked first every year.

Looking at it now, this is not the case at all.

"Okay, that's it for today. I have to go to the basement quickly. The first period today is Potions class."

As the time approached nine o'clock, Cedric said hastily and left.

"Let's not be in a daze and go to the second floor."

Looking at Hermione who was still a little slow to recover, Wayne urged her.

Their first lesson today was History of Magic, taught by Hufflepuff and Gryffindor together.

"Ah, oh." Hermione followed the boy and finally couldn't help complaining:

"It shouldn't be like this. Aren't the rules meant to be followed? Digory is a good student, why would he..."

"This is Hogwarts." Wayne stopped suddenly and turned around.

The little witch almost threw herself into his arms.

"After all, the worldview of wizards is very different from that of Muggles. Many things that may seem excessive to you are actually not important in the magical world."

"The same goes for the rules." Wayne guided Hermione like a little devil: "Do you want to follow the rules and miss the real Hogwarts, or do you want to improve your ability to avoid teachers and explore this thousand-year-old castle?"

Hermione was so dizzy after being told that, her mind went blank.

All he knew was that he subconsciously held Wayne's clothes to ensure that he wouldn't get lost.

The two came to the classroom. At this time, there were many people sitting here, with excited expressions on their faces.

Until...a ghost walked through the wall and appeared on the podium.
