The Day of the Draw at Hogwarts

The three-headed dog is still in a state of confusion. It lies there motionless. It seems that it has just been awakened from its sleep, and the whole dog has not yet reacted. But the quick recovery of the look in its eyes and the deafening roars in its mouth showed that its mind was waking up rapidly.

Hermione's hand was already on the doorknob - she figured it was better to get fired than to be eaten by a dog with bad breath. She backed away little by little and opened the door. The dog's head in the middle stretched out towards them. Tom slapped it on the nose. The three-headed dog subconsciously shrank back, and Tom also took the opportunity to squeeze through the crack in the door. She squeezed out and slammed the door. Hermione quickly re-locked the lock with quick eyes and hands, and then they ran away amidst the roars from behind the door, running faster than flying.

This thin lock could not stop the three-headed dog, but it seemed that it was well-trained and did not rush out of the door even if it was extremely angry.

Fortunately, Filch was gone, and Tom and Hermione didn't become the students who broke the school rules on the first day of school - he was cursing and cleaning up the corridors. Hermione and Tom ran as fast as they could, they just wanted to stay away from that corridor, and they didn't stop until Hermione fell on the stairs.

"It hurts! It hurts!" Hermione covered her feet, almost crying from the pain. She had just stepped on the first flight of stairs, but the stairs suddenly disappeared. She fell in instantly and sprained her foot.

"I can't walk anymore..." She tried to take two steps, but found that her feet were so painful that she couldn't walk anymore. Hermione sat on the stairs with a desperate look on her face: "I won't leave. You go back first. I will find a way to explain to Filch when he patrols here."

Tom took out his magic wand: "Healed as before!"

There was such a magic spell in the skill he had drawn before, but it was still at level 0... He found that no matter how many times he practiced, the magic spell could not break through to level one on its own, and was just stuck at 99/100. At this threshold, if you want to upgrade to level 1, you may need to break through. The current state of his recovery spell can be said to be the peak level 0 perfection - level 1 in half a step, with only a layer of window paper left before level 1.

So what is the effect of the Level 0 Peak Dzogchen Restoration Spell? It's probably equivalent to rupturing an artery and trying to fix it with a band-aid. I can't say it has no effect, I can only say it has little effect.

Tom cast a Restoration Curse, which only had an analgesic effect. It still hurt Hermione to move even slightly.

"You, you should go back first. If Filch comes over, there will be trouble - I, I will naturally find a way to deal with him..." Hermione hesitated, just hoping that Tom would go back quickly and not end up with the two of them. Stuck here by Filch.

Tom shook his head, "Actually, there is good news..."

He showed Hermione his ring, and there was something engraved on it. The lines of the picture were very simple, but he could still recognize it. It was a three-headed dog - he had just come into contact with the three-headed dog. This gives Tom another option to transform.

"Change!"

A giant dog more than three meters tall appeared in front of Hermione, bringing a fishy wind that made Hermione cover her nose: "You really need a good bath in this form!"

Yes, a big dog that has lived in a dark corridor for who knows how long. God knows when was the last time it took a bath?

Tom was a little embarrassed, but he couldn't see the blush at this time, he just stuck out his tongue and gasped. He leaned down and let Hermione climb up by the tangled hair, and then sat on the dog's head in the middle.

"Woof! (I'll take you back)"

Tom was horrified to find that this body seemed to only bark. It was very difficult to make a human voice, and the experience of turning into a dog was also very novel. For example, with these three heads, Tom could feel the main body of his consciousness. There is a dog head in the middle, and the two on the left and right are more like two protruding lumps of meat. They are just breathing instinctively and drooling. But if you want to switch perspectives, you can do so easily. This may be the difference with the real three-headed dog. After all, the real three-headed dog has three consciousnesses.

In addition to the angle of view, his sense of smell seems to be sharper. For example, he can almost smell Hermione's fragrance very clearly...

The next step is to go back to the lounge. But what stood in front of them was an extremely real problem: they were lost. It was normal to not be able to find the way. After all, they had just arrived at the castle tonight. But since you can turn into a dog, getting lost is not a problem.

Tom stopped, switched his consciousness to the dog's head on the left, and then leaned in front of Hermione and smelled it carefully. The hot breath sprayed directly on Hermione's face, making her face turn red. Although there was a dog's head in front of her, Hermione knew that inside the dog's body was the boy she knew well. This behavior was like the boy putting his head over to smell her...

Just when she was hesitating whether to kick the dog's head away, the dog's head took the initiative to stay away from her.

OK! I've memorized Hermione's taste! Tom was unaware of Hermione's little thoughts. In his eyes, the top priority was to return to the common room.

The next step is to follow the smell to find the rest room.

Tom raised his neck, trying hard to identify the smell in the air, and then strode in one direction.

"Hermione's smell is stronger here, go this way... the smell is lighter, so go over there... Huh? Hermione, please lift your feet, it will affect my ability to identify directions..."

That is to say, the dog that Tom has become cannot speak human words, otherwise Hermione will definitely beat the dog's head off.

After many twists and turns, the two finally returned to the door of the Ravenclaw common room. Their eyes filled with excitement: what they experienced this night felt like a week!

Tom put Hermione on the ground, transformed back into human form, and then helped her knock on the door.

The eagle-shaped door knocker spoke: "There are 30 cows in the field and 28 chickens. How many of them are not eaten?"

This question was haphazard and seemed inconsistent, but it made Hermione and Tom look at each other and smile.

"Ten," Hermione replied.

"The answer is correct." The door opened.

In English, "twenty ate chickens" and "twenty eight chickens" are pronounced exactly the same, which can confuse the listener, so in reality the door knocker is asking "There are 30 cows" In the field, 20 cows ate chickens, but how many cows didn’t eat chickens?”

"The door knocker problems are really weird." Tom sighed from the bottom of his heart. He sent Hermione to the door of the dormitory, and then separated from her - Hermione refused to let him send her in. She held on to the wall and walked back to her bed little by little, and at this time Tom also returned to his dormitory.
