The three of them quickly moved through the secret passage, and it took them a while to reach the eighth floor.
After listening to Albert's story, Fred, who was slightly out of breath, felt incredible, "So, Professor Broad didn't help Filch catch you."
"Albert is an outstanding student in the eyes of the professors." George joked, and then opened his mouth in surprise, because there was actually a door on the wall opposite the tapestry where the troll beat Barnabas silly.
"Sure enough..." Albert whispered softly.
"Sure enough?" Fred asked curiously.
"Nothing, just go in!" Albert opened the door and walked into the Room of Requirement first.
"I didn't expect it to be true." Fred and George looked at each other and followed Albert in. They both had big mouths. What they saw was a person they had never seen before. The decoration was very exquisite.
The room contains...
The excited expressions on the two people's faces couldn't help but freeze, and they looked at the various exquisite and luxurious chamber pots placed in front of them in astonishment.
Albert looked at the astonished expressions on the faces of the Weasley brothers, winked mischievously and said, "Well, are you surprised?"
"Could it be that you happened to show up here when your bladder was extremely full?" Fred couldn't help but ask.
"How is it possible? Am I that stupid?" Albert couldn't help rolling his eyes.
"Is this really the broom closet we discovered earlier?" George looked at the luxurious chamber pot here curiously. Suddenly he had an idea and asked, "So, you need to pee urgently?"
The three of them couldn't help but laugh, and each picked a style they liked.
"But it feels a bit strange that we really have to hide here." Fred scratched his head and said. After all, no one likes to hide in a pile of chamber pots.
"It's nothing, just go out and change another room." Albert said casually.
"This place is not within the scope of the Marauder's Map. Maybe Prongs, Moony Face, Wormtail, and Padfoot didn't discover the secret here." George said, looking at the Marauder's Map in his hand.
"Prongs, Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot?" Albert asked pretending to be confused.
"The maker of the Marauder's Map." Fred explained.
"Oh, they." Albert nodded, "Maybe they didn't find it. After all, few people know the secret of the Room of Requirement."
"No problem, Filch is still on the fifth floor." George said after checking the Marauder's Map.
After the three of them left the Room of Requirement, Fred asked: "Where are we going to change?"
"A place where you can rest." Albert suggested.
"I'll do it this time."
"I also want."
The twins put their hands on each other's shoulders, and after another try, the door opened, and this time they emerged into a comfortable room with a roaring fire.
"Awesome." Fred patted the armchair, "By the way, you haven't said how you found this place yet."
"I want to know too." George agreed.
"This is the result of my analysis from you. Did you pass by here many times at that time, and you still wanted to find a place to hide?" Albert used the rhetoric he had prepared in advance. In fact, to a certain extent,
To put it bluntly, what he said is indeed correct.
"That's right."
"So, I took the time to try and pass by here many times, and then I wanted a place to hide." Albert explained.
"What's the result?" George asked.
"Of course it failed. I tried many times before I finally opened this door, and after sorting it out, I figured out the correct way to open it." Albert began to exaggerate the difficulty of finding this place. In fact,
, he succeeded on his first try.
"Later, I tried turning this place into other rooms. After trying it many times, I found the correct way to use it." Albert blinked and said, "So, later I called this room the Room of Requirement. Because of this
The room will be transformed into various rooms according to your needs, and everything you ask for will be accommodated. Isn't it very appropriate?"
"So, you found this place through these clues?"
"That's right, I found this place through the clues you provided, am I very good?" Albert nodded: "If you want to praise me, then praise me!"
"You..." The twins swallowed back what they were about to say, but they still admired each other very much. They didn't expect that Albert would find such a place relying only on this clue.
"When we make the garlic cross, we can do it here." George suddenly said, this way, we don't need to worry about making the dormitory full of garlic smell.
"Have you not given up yet?" Albert thought they had forgotten this matter, but he did not expect to mention it again at this time.
"Why give up? We already have enough garlic." Fred nodded, "This is the first alchemy tool we made."
Albert couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead. He didn't know whether he should tell them that it was not actually an alchemy tool.
But...he was really embarrassed to open his mouth and shatter the bad dreams of young people.
After all, the two of them are men who will become the king of jokes in the future.
The three of them rested in the Room of Requirement for a long time, waiting for Filch and Professor Broad to give up on hunting them. Compared to Filch who was searching for them, the twins who were sitting by the fireplace warming themselves were fighting with Albert.
There were two wizard chess games placed in front of their table, and Albert easily faced the two of them in a one-on-one match.
"Fred, work harder, you still have a chance to turn defeat into victory." George encouraged loudly.
"How do you add it? By the way, you actually lost earlier than me." Fred looked at his brother who was sitting next to him and making sarcastic remarks, and couldn't help but roll his eyes. He knew that he was about to lose.
"Ahem." George coughed dryly and quickly changed the subject, "Filch seems to have gone back to rest. Let's go to the library."
"That's a good idea, let's go." Fred stood up immediately, preparing to abandon the game.
"Uh, okay." Albert didn't reveal the other person's thoughts, he just moved the queen to checkmate Fred's king.
"You lost too." George gloated and patted Fred on the shoulder and said, "You are much better than our incompetent brother."
"Brother?" Albert asked doubtfully, "The unlucky guy who had his tongue burned through by the candy."
"Ahem, that was just an accident." George coughed dryly and quickly walked out of the Room of Requirement.
The three of them walked towards the school library.
The Hogwarts library closes at eight o'clock in the evening. What surprised the three of them was that the library door was unlocked.
Albert opened the door and walked in first. The museum was dark and eerie.
Albert raised his wand, looked around with the light of the wand, and then walked toward the restricted book area at the back of the library.
After crossing the rope that separated the restricted book area, the surrounding atmosphere became even more gloomy.
Albert raised his wand and read the title of the book with the help of pale light.
"Help me find the "Book of Spells". And don't open those books casually, and don't take them off the bookshelf. No one knows whether these books have been cursed." Albert warned: "Remember
Come on, don't open the book, it might get us into a lot of trouble."
"I know." The twins looked at each other, but nodded.
Looking for the books he needs in the sea of books is undoubtedly a waste of time. Albert spent a long time without finding what he needed.
The books in the restricted book area all looked very worn, and Albert was a little skeptical as to whether there were many unique copies stored here.
"Albert!" Fred's voice was low, "I heard faint whispers coming from some books over there."
"Whispers?" Albert frowned. Hearing what the twins said, he unknowingly thought that Voldemort's Horcruxes were hidden in the forbidden book area.
The three of them all moved forward and pointed their wands at the peeling and faded gilt letters. They all felt the hairs on the backs of their necks stand up, and they could all hear the whispers coming from the books.
"This is a restricted book area. It's not surprising that there is a book like this. Don't open it." Albert warned, "It must be a book recording black magic."
"Do you think there is powerful black magic recorded in it?" The twins looked at the book with a bit of awe.
"Maybe, I don't know." Albert warned. "But I am sure that if you open it now, you will definitely be in trouble."
"You're right." Fred gave up the idea of seeking death and was worried that there was some bad black magic in the book. After all, some bad things would happen after reading some books.
"Toadstool Tales" and "The Wizard's Sonnets" are the best examples. The former will make people sick and vomit, while the latter will make people speak only in five-line limericks for the rest of their lives.
"Help me find the Book of Spells. The spells in it are more suitable for us to learn now." Albert reminded again.
Fred and George both nodded and agreed to help. They also wanted to learn some jinxes, and the powerful jinxes in the "Book of Spells" were obviously suitable for them to practice.
"Looking for them separately will be more efficient. As long as you don't touch the books casually, you will be fine." Albert reminded him and continued to look for the books he needed.
There are a lot of books stored in the restricted book area. When Albert passed through an area, he vaguely heard someone communicating in a low voice.
Albert immediately held his breath and listened. He could vaguely hear that the source of the sound was a bookshelf next to him, but it was not the books in the bookshelves in front of him, but somewhere else.
There seems to be something here, but it's hidden by magic.
"How weird..." Albert muttered. He did not try to uncover the secret, but continued to look for the books he needed. That was the purpose of coming here.
It took about an hour, or even longer, for the three of them to walk around the restricted book area before finally finding the books they needed.
"I knew the books here wouldn't be so easy to remove." Fred pointed to the chains on the books and said, "What should I do? Opening the Alajo Cave won't work. These chains must have been enchanted."
"Aren't you going to forcefully break the chain?" Neither George nor Fred wanted Albert to do that, because they were worried that doing so might lead to bad consequences.
"Of course I wouldn't do something stupid like that. I expected it to have an anti-Alajo opening curse on it." Albert took out a knife from his pocket.
This pocket knife was an item he bought for Christmas. What Albert wanted was not the pocket knife, but some universal accessories for the pocket knife. One of them was a tool for unlocking. He had already
After practicing at home, it is not too difficult to open this old lock.
"What are you going to do?" Neither of them understood why Albert suddenly took out a knife.
"Using Muggle tricks."
"A Muggle trick?" Both of them were curious about what Albert planned to do.
"You all open your eyes and watch carefully." Albert began to fiddle with the lock on the book.
After a while, there was a soft click and the lock on the book was opened.
"How on earth did you do that?" The twins looked at Albert in surprise.
"I said, this is the Muggle's lock-picking trick." Albert shook the knife in his hand and said: "Most wizards will ignore some of the Muggle's tricks, although it is not as good as the lock-picking spell, and the speed is also slower.
It’s a bit important, but they often ignore this point, leaving me with loopholes to exploit.”
Although Hogwarts casts spells on these locks, and even if the chain is broken by force, an alarm may be set off, but he believes that using the key to open the lock will have absolutely no side effects, because this is the correct way to open it.
Although Albert didn't have a key, there was obviously no problem with using Muggle lockpicking skills.
"Next time you have a chance, you must teach us this technique." The twins' eyes flashed, and they felt that the method used by Albert was very useful.
Most wizards will always look down on Muggles because they don't know magic, which gives Albert a loophole to exploit. Even Hogwarts obviously ignored this.
"This lock-picking trick is easy to learn. If I have the chance, I will teach you." Albert said casually. He didn't know whether the twins could learn it.
By the time they left the library, it was already four o'clock in the morning, and the three of them held tonight's trophies in their hands, the original "Book of Spells", "Book of Potions" and "Power Potion".
After double-checking that no one was there, the three quietly left the scene of the crime and returned to the Gryffindor common room, avoiding a ghost wizard holding a cane on the way.
When he returned to the dormitory, Li Jordan was already awake and looked dissatisfied at the three people who had just returned from a night out.
"You should have woken me up," Lee Jordan complained.
"Who made you sleep like a pig?" Fred held up today's trophy and showed off to Lee Jordan, "We got it from the library."
"Let me see what books there are." Lee Jordan asked curiously.
"See for yourself. Don't break it. Let's sleep for a while." Fred covered a yawn and began to take off his clothes, preparing to go back and take a nap. He had never slept like Albert before.
, after the excitement of the night tour, I really want to sleep now.
"Good night."
"Good night"
"What three bastards." Looking at the three people lying back on the bed, Li Jordan cursed in a low voice and turned his attention back to the three brick books they brought back.
