When the letter informing Dumbledore to go to the Ministry of Magic appeared on his desk, he knew that Quirrell and Voldemort behind him were ready to take action. Naturally, he should do what they wanted and notify him.
After all the teachers, he left Hogwarts and rushed to the Ministry of Magic in London.
"Are you sure he has left?"
"Yes, my master, he left Hogwarts and went to the Ministry of Magic in front of all our teachers."
"Then let's start taking action. Do you still remember that place?"
"Of course, it's just over the corridor on the fourth floor of the castle."
What Voldemort didn't know was that at the same time he started taking action, Harry and the others also learned from Hagrid that someone had used dragon eggs to trick Hagrid out on how to deal with Lu Wei.
With Hagrid's horrified expression, they rushed out of his hut and began to run quickly through the grounds outside the castle, towards the main entrance hall of the castle auditorium.
"We have to go find Dumbledore," Harry said. "Hagrid told a stranger how to subdue Fluffy. The man in the cloak was either Snape or Voldemort - all he had to do was get Hagrid drunk.
, it’s easy to trick him out. I just hope Dumbledore can believe us.”
What they didn't know was that just as they rushed out of the hut, a jackdaw that had been staying above the chimney of Hagrid's hut suddenly screamed, then flew away.
It went straight through an open window in the castle and came to an abandoned classroom. There are too many rooms like this in Hogwarts, and this is just one of the inconspicuous ones.
After the jackdaw landed on the ground and confirmed that there was no one or anything else around, it began to gradually change. As it raised its wings to cover its head, its size began to gradually grow, and at the same time, the feathers on its body began to grow.
It also began to fade and transform into a black cloak.
Finally, Rolf Scamander stood up from where the jackdaw originally stood. He twisted his neck to get it out of its somewhat stiff state, then opened the door and left the room.
Abandoned classroom.
At the same time, Quirrell had already passed through the corridor on the fourth floor, opened the door and came to the front of the three-headed dog Luwei. With a slight wave of his hand holding the wand, a self-playing harp appeared.
Beside him, the three-headed dog that originally bared its teeth and rushed towards him began to sway in the music.
Just like that, the proud Quirrell hummed a tune to the music of the harp and passed through the trap door behind Lu Wei, arriving at the second level he had to face.
In other words, there is no second level at all, because Quirrell used a slow fall spell and an illumination spell to solve all the problems. Before he landed slowly, the devil vines shrank into darkness because of the white light of the illumination spell.
in the corner.
"Devil's ivy? A meaningless plant. What is that fat woman thinking? Does she think we are children?"
"Shut up, Quirrell, and go get the Philosopher's Stone."
"Sorry, my master, I will do it right away."
Unfortunately, before Quirrell could express his pride, he was interrupted by Voldemort's reprimand. He was really fed up with Quirrell, this stupid slave. If he didn't need a body to act, he would have killed him long ago.
But soon, soon he will no longer need this lingering body, as long as he gets the magic stone.
"Flying keys and broomsticks? Do you think this is a game of Quidditch?"
"Hurry up! Quirrell!"
"Okay, I'll be fine soon, my master."
While Quirrell was trying to grab the key to the door, Harry and others also walked through the hall and came to the auditorium. Just as they were discussing what to do, a voice came from the other side of the auditorium.
.
"What are you three doing here?!"
It was Professor McGonagall. She was holding a lot of books in her hands. When she saw Harry and the others, she walked over holding the books. She seemed very confused and angry that they were still here at this time.
.
"We want to see Professor Dumbledore."
This sentence was said by Neville, which surprised Harry and Ron.
"You want to see Professor Dumbledore?" Professor McGonagall repeated, and then expressed her doubts. "Why?"
Harry swallowed, should he tell the truth?
"Because we suspect that someone wants to steal the Philosopher's Stone, and he may have already started taking action."
This answer was obviously beyond Professor McGonagall's expectations, so much so that the book in her hand fell to the ground. But she did not pick it up, but stuttered and asked another question.
"How did you know..."
"Yes, Professor, we think someone is going to steal the Philosopher's Stone, so we have to see Professor Dumbledore."
"Professor Dumbledore is no longer in school. He received an urgent notice from the Ministry of Magic and will not be back until tomorrow. I don't know how you found out about the Sorcerer's Stone, but don't worry, no one can steal it. It has been affected by
Tight protection, absolutely foolproof."
"But Professor..."
"No buts, it's getting late, you should go back and go to bed."
After saying that, Professor McGonagall waved her wand and left in a hurry, even forgetting to deduct points from Harry and the others. The books that had originally fallen on the ground flew up and followed.
Professor McGonagall left together.
"Professor Dumbledore is not here, what should we do?"
Ron asked in a panic, but Harry calmed down completely at this time. He had already thought of what he should do.
"We must never sit still and wait for death when things happen. Since Professor Dumbledore is not here, and Professor McGonagall does not believe what we say, then we can only solve this problem ourselves. Before Snape can get it, steal the Philosopher's Stone.
Get it."
"Are you crazy!?"
"I support you, Harry, and I'm going with you."
Faced with Harry's choice, Ron and Neville had completely different reactions. But in the end, Ron chose to follow his two friends to steal the Sorcerer's Stone.
But this Philosopher's Stone team had just set out, and they almost died before they started, because when they walked through the corridor on the third floor to the fourth floor, they encountered the most troublesome existence in the school: Peeves. "Aha! Look what I encountered!? Three sneaky Gryffindor brats, what are they going to do!? Should I inform Filch? Although he is also very annoying." p>
"Damn it, it's Peeves, what should we do!?"
"Let me think."
"Lock the tongue and seal the throat!"
Just when Harry and the others were at a loss what to do, a spell hit Peeves who was shouting, causing him to fall into silence for an instant. Then Harry and the others looked at Peeves blankly.
He grabbed his own throat and floated into the wall beside him while making obscene gestures.
"It seems that you have encountered some minor troubles. Fortunately, I am happy to help you. What do you think? Harry."
