Chapter 37 Malfoy's calculation
After returning to the dormitory, Harry and Ronald were just dazed for a while, and after recovering their energy a bit, they immediately got up from the bed.
Neville, Moxie and Andy slept soundly, they left the dormitory without disturbing them.
In the hall, Harry and Ronald met Hermione who was already waiting here.
"Why don't you go back to sleep?" Ronald asked, looking at Hermione.
Ronald didn't want Hermione to participate in such a wizard duel, which was a bit cruel for a girl.
"I worry about you!" Hermione said hesitantly.
Ronald smiled slightly, raised his wand, and said, "I am an earth elemental magician. I can release earth thorns. Malfoy and Crabbe cannot be our opponents."
"So, you'd better go back to sleep!"
Hermione shook her head and said very firmly: "No, I have to go with you. Even if I lose in the end, I can avenge you. The worst thing is, if something really happens, I can call the professor."
"I don't think Malfoy would do that."
Seeing this, Harry said, "Okay, let's go together, Ronald, take care of Hermione."
After speaking, Harry strode outside.
Ronald looked at Hermione and whispered, "You should trust us."
After finishing speaking, he continued to follow Harry's footsteps, followed by Hermione.
She has studied night tours with Professor Kate Lyle several times, so Hermione, who should have followed the rules, fell in love with this kind of night tours.
The three of Harry walked briskly along the corridor, the moonlight shone in from the tall windows, and spread across the ground, bringing some light to Harry and the others.
Even so, the three of Harry walked cautiously, for fear that every time they turned a corner, they would meet Filch and Mrs. Norris who were patrolling the building at night.
Because, once they are exposed, the consequences will be disastrous.
"Phew, we were so lucky that we didn't meet Filch and his cat." Ronald said with a sigh of relief.
"Maybe, he's in that corner, sleeping with his cat in his arms." Harry quipped in a low voice.
After a while, the three of them came to the fourth floor and entered the prize showroom.
It was eerily quiet inside, without any sound.
In the darkness, trophies, shields, medals and statues shone with silver and gold in the faint night light, making the silence here a little warmer.
Even so, the three of Harry still leaned against the wall cautiously, their six eyes carefully scanning any possible hiding place.
Malfoy is an insidious villain, maybe they are hiding in a certain corner at this time, and suddenly attack them.
However, a little bit of time passed, and after the three of them walked through the small trophy showroom, they realized that there was no one in the trophy showroom at all.
"I'm pretty sure that Malfoy is too scared to come."
"After all, he was intimidated by you during flying lessons today, Harry."
Ronald breathed a sigh of relief, and then said happily.
Harry frowned slightly when he heard this, and then said in a low voice, "We may be in trouble."
"Why?" Ronald asked subconsciously.
"Malfoy played us, it's a trap." Hermione said angrily, gritting her teeth.
When Ronald heard this, his expression changed immediately, and he panicked inside, and he said quickly, "Then let's go back quickly."
Just at this moment, after Ronald finished speaking, a voice from the next room made them horrified.
A person that they were afraid of and they didn't want to see appeared.
"Honey, smell it carefully, they must be hiding in some corner."
Filch's voice sounded, and Mrs. Norris' figure was elongated under the moonlight, making her look a bit hideous.
"Malfoy bastard!" Harry's face was ugly, and he lowered his voice, and hurriedly said, "Go, get out of here quickly."
At this time, Harry had already understood Malfoy's calculations, and Filch was so sure of their existence that Malfoy must have informed them.
The three of Harry quietly moved to the door away from Filch, and when Filch entered the prize showroom, the three of Harry walked out of the prize showroom.
"I know you're here, Harry Potter."
"It's no use hiding. My Lady Norris will find you."
Filch swept across the gloomy prize showroom with a gloomy expression, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said.
Filch likes to tease students, and sometimes even likes to fish for law enforcement, which is very interesting.
These days, he's like teasing Harry Potter et al.
Outside, Ronald accidentally tripped himself as he stooped and trotted on his robes, Hermione followed and bumped into Ronald.
boom!
"Ouch!"
The heavy object fell to the ground, and the pain in Ronald's buttocks made the sound of his exclamation sounded, and Filch, who was in the prize display room, immediately sensed something.
"Quick, quick, Luo Lisi, they escaped."
Filch held the lamp, walked anxiously outside, and shouted at the same time.
"Run!" Harry growled as his expression changed.
Harry pulled Ronald up, Ronald took Hermione's hand, and the three of them ran quickly in the corridor without any hesitation or turning around.
The three of Harry bypassed the doorpost and ran through one corridor after another. They didn't know where they went, they just felt that they ran a long, long way.
Until they turned a corner, a figure suddenly rushed out of the darkness.
At this moment, the three of Harry only felt their hearts stop suddenly, and their breathing also stopped uncontrollably.
"Wow wow wow!"
"It turned out to be a nasty first-year kid, wandering around in the middle of the night, really naughty!"
"Oh ho ho ho, Filch will catch you, hee hee hee!"
It turned out to be Peeves!
The three of Harry also recognized Peeves after being frightened, so they breathed a sigh of relief.
Hermione stared at Peeves angrily, and shouted, "Shut up, Peeves, you just scared me to death."
Hermione is a brave and daring person, but just now, she was really frightened, and even once thought that she was going to be expelled from school.
That is definitely an unbelievable, even desperate thing.
Hearing what Hermione said, Peeves not only didn't shut up, but proudly smiled mischievously and said, "Well, it turns out that you were frightened, that's really funny."
"That just proves that my intimidation was effective and correct."
"You should be honored, shouldn't you?"
"Damn it, you're so annoying." Ronald was so pissed off by Peeves when he heard that, he immediately stretched out his hand to grab Peeves.
Peeves dodged Ronald's hand, flew higher, and called out playfully, "Damn Filch, where are you?"
"There are students here who don't sleep. They are so naughty that they bully ghosts!"
Seeing this, Harry wished to give Peeves a ball of fire and teach Peeves a profound lesson.
But, he didn't have the time, he heard Filch's voice.
"Where? Naughty Peeves!"
"In the corridor of the Charms class." Peeves responded loudly.
"Go!" Harry cursed secretly, and said hastily.
He ran all the way to the end of the corridor and slammed into a door.
The door is locked and cannot be opened!
Seeing this, Ronald looked back, and there was a fire coming from the corner on the other side of the corridor, and Filch was about to arrive.
For a moment, Ronald was very desperate and said, "What should we do? We are going to die."
"Alahoo!" Hermione called, taking Harry's wand and knocking on the lock.
The faces of the three of Harry were filled with joy, they walked in quickly, and closed the door, then put their ears against the wall, trying to listen to the movement outside.
