Chapter 135 Photography Magic and Maps
Putting down the newspaper, John looked up at the Gryffindor table.
Ron and Hermione had another fight.
"How did they manage to quarrel every day and still have such a good relationship?" John was lost in thought.
The reason is still the two pets. Crookshanks often ran out, but he still didn't forget to catch Scabbers.
This incident was the trigger, and Ron had long disliked that ugly cat.
On one side is a pet that has been kept for 12 years, and on the other side is an ugly cat that has just been bought for less than half a year. He doesn't understand why Hermione can't understand.
At least from Ron's point of view, there is nothing wrong with this matter.
John was also very curious why Crookshanks would stare at Banban.
As far as he knew, Crookshanks was too clever to fail to see that the rat was the pet of a friend of its owner.
"Peter Pettigrew?"
The Marauder's Map will show the people in Hogwarts, and the mouse next to Ron is not called Scabbers.
John knew about this all along, but he couldn't run up to Ron and tell him, isn't this mouse called Scabbers?
"That mouse is hiding so badly now that it doesn't even come out of the dormitory."
Originally, John wanted to check if the Animagus had become a mouse, but it was a pity that Scabbers didn't give him the chance.
John had no choice but to put the matter aside.
As he ate the sausage off the fork, John felt someone standing behind him.
He looked back, and Professor Snape was deliberately slowing down.
"Okay, this matter has to be resolved." With a slur, John called Professor Snape to stop.
"professor."
As if waiting for the sound, Snape stopped and turned around slowly.
Seeing the anticipation on that face, John wiped his mouth and said, "I see."
In the thoughtless conversation, Snape had an unprecedented smile on his face.
He drew his tone, "Oh?"
John says the key word: "full moon."
Snape said quietly: "Mr. Wick, you are a smart man."
Well, be smart now, right?
John wondered if Snape was secretly calling himself stupid.
After muttering a few words in his heart, he smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment."
One big and one small, like two cunning foxes.
Snape's pace of leaving quickened, showing that he was in a happy mood.
The two were playing charades, Daphne's beautiful eyes widened, and doubts were written on her face.
Heinrich ate his food calmly, he picked up the juice, and then cautiously dipped some to drink.
Mmm, garlic flavor.
He walked to the Gryffindor table without hesitation, and the twins, who had failed in their prank, ran away quickly.
Harry was in a good mood, and Lupine agreed to teach him the Patronus Charm.
After this Christmas, he won't have to continue to be ridiculed by Malfoy and the others.
Say Malfoy, Draco arrives.
There was clearly a Hufflepuff between the tables of the two colleges, but Draco Malfoy walked around to give Harry a sense of presence.
"The dementors are coming—"
He pretended to be panicked, which made Pansy and the others burst out laughing.
Harry's face was dark, and Ron and Hermione, who had been fighting coldly just now, immediately went into cub protection mode.
"Shut up, Malfoy!"
Ron was already in a bad mood, and after being teased like this, he immediately stood up, and Malfoy looked at him without showing any weakness.
"Weasley, you should be glad it's in the Great Hall."
A naked threat, Malfoy whispered: "If you dare, you can fight me."
Ron looked bad, and it wasn't the first time he and Malfoy had quarreled.
Malfoy's strength has improved a lot, and if he fights, he really may not be able to win.
He didn't realize that Malfoy wouldn't scold him about his background now, thanks to Percy being a member of the Star Society, otherwise his little mouth smeared with poisonous honey wouldn't be so civilized.
"I'll fight you, Malfoy."
Harry wouldn't watch his friend being humiliated, he rushed out.
"Enough, Malfoy, do you want to be locked up?"
Hermione stopped the urge of the two cubs to go out to duel, she stared at Malfoy, not to be outdone.
Points will be deducted every time he casts a curse, and Gryffindor is ridden on the head by Ravenclaw.
Malfoy shrugged and sneered at Harry, "Oh, dear Potter, you'll hide behind your friends."
After finishing speaking, he made a crying baby expression, turned his head and led the people away.
Ron was so angry that he slammed his fist on the table, and Hermione also comforted Harry, "He just dared to say that."
Harry muffled: "I know, thank you."
The relationship between the three little ones has been restored after what happened just now.
...
Time passed quickly, and John clocked in at sunrise and sunset every day and cast spells.
The storm didn't seem to be coming, and John was a little depressed.
Usually, I have to catch some dementors to practice.
Turn on the phantom body, turn off the brain, go out and come back, the poor dementor is missing one.
Because of the intervention of the Aurors, the dementors are now almost confined to one place.
And the dementors often want to run away, so sometimes there are fewer, they will think that they are dementors and escape, and they can't find it after searching.
They don't know that the reason why the dementors want to escape is because there are often dementors disappearing out of thin air.
Dementors are like encountering a natural enemy, trying to run but being stopped.
Capitalized miserably.
John didn't care about them, he became more proficient in soul surgery, and stuffed the decomposed soul into the bottle.
A shelf full of bottles of souls, enough to decompose more than a dozen dementors.
The ring is getting darker and blacker, and there is no need to lure the dementors, just use the Soul Eater Curse to pull them over.
"Almost enough."
Looking at the bottles emitting white light on the shelf, John carefully put away the things.
With these soul fragments, it is enough to operate on Nagini.
Stretching out his left hand to pinch the unused box, John whispered, "Crush."
The box was like a paper cup pinched by a big hand, and a strange force emerged from all sides to shatter it.
Unlike the Crushing Curse, this is ancient magic.
Strictly speaking, it is a variant of ancient magic capable of ingesting objects.
It sounds similar to the Levitation Charm, but it's actually not the same.
The floating spell is to hold up the object, and its essence is to cause damage by the weight of the object falling.
And this spell of capturing objects is to hold, pick up things with one hand, and speed up the smashing down.
This is what John found in "Forbidden Magic".
With a snap of his fingers, the shattered box ignited a flame, burning the box clean.
"There will be no evidence left."
John chuckled, there was enough material, so there was no need to harm the dementors.
After tidying up the soul fragments, John glanced at the Boggart who had not moved for a long time, and let it go.
...
12 month 18 number.
A group of students preparing to go to Hogsmeade gathered at the gate of the castle, and John saw Harry again.
He was standing alone at the door, really very pitiful.
Sighing, Harry was about to go back.
"pitiful."
Seeing how pitiful the savior was, John thought he had two Marauder's maps anyway, so he might as well give Harry one.
It was supposed to belong to Harry anyway.
So he stopped Harry, who watched John approaching with some puzzlement.
"John? How do you..."
John took out a piece of parchment, and Harry's eyebrows twitched. Isn't this to assign homework for himself?
No, John is not a professor, he assigns some homework.
Harry didn't know why, so John smiled and said mysteriously: "There is more than one way to leave Hogwarts."
After all, the wand tapped lightly on the blank parchment.
"I solemnly swear that I have no good intentions!"
Ink lines spread across the white paper, Harry's eyes widened.
"This is the Marauder's Map." John chuckled and said, "I believe you can see the effect."
Harry opened his mouth slightly, as if he didn't expect John to give him such an important thing.
He was a little embarrassed and asked, "This... for me?"
"of course."
John nodded and said meaningfully, "It belongs to you."
Harry was overjoyed. He saw a few ways to get out of Hogwarts, which made him think a little bit.
"Thank you, John." Harry thanked him sincerely.
"The closing spell is: Mischief over."
John waved his hand, and he turned and left the castle.
Shortly after he left, Harry was about to head to the secret passage to leave.
He was caught by the Weasley twins, who took him to the fourth-floor corridor.
They blinked mysteriously and said, "Before we go, let's get you a little festive."
As he spoke, he pushed Harry into the classroom beside him.
They introduced Harry a secret way to leave Hogwarts. Harry looked strange, and he wanted to say something. Fred saw the Marauder's Map in his hand.
"So it's here with you, we thought it was lost."
Harry blankly picked up the Marauder's Map, but the twins picked it up and used it directly.
Seeing their familiar appearance, Harry looked strange, and so did the twins.
Anyway, Harry could finally go to Hogsmeade.
Full of excitement, he burrowed into the secret tunnel of the statue of the humpbacked one-eyed witch, entered it all the way, and appeared in the Honeydukes Candy Store.
