The Mightiest Wizard of Hogwarts

Chapter 214 302 Two or three things about Christmas (two chapters in one)
But what if you don't give up?

Really go wandering in the forbidden forest, looking for a needle in a haystack?
In such a heavy atmosphere, the three fell asleep on the ground again,
Silent all night.

When Finny woke up from the ground, the twins were still sleeping soundly. You two were sleeping on my lap, and I was sleeping soundly with my arms around your waist.

Their outstanding talents and Gryffindor atmosphere make them feel no sense of urgency, and they usually like to sleep late, especially now that they are on vacation.

Feeney shook his head helplessly, walked to the table by the window of the room, sat on the chair, and snapped his fingers casually.

Puff, who was in charge of taking care of him, naturally understood his habits. A cup of coffee appeared on the table in front of him.
Finny picked up the coffee, tasted it slowly, and was still thinking about Hufflepuff's inheritance in his mind,
The Forbidden Forest is full of all kinds of dangerous and non-dangerous magical animals, as well as precious and common herbs,

And the existence of these things often proves another thing, that is, food is plentiful, as long as you feel it, these are food, which is quite in line with Ms. Helga Hufflepuff's thinking.

So there's a good chance that the clues found in the cemetery under the kitchen are correct,

When I was with the twins yesterday, Feeney did not explain that this clue is not sure whether it is correct. This suspicion also has some reasons.

Although many clues now point to the correctness of this clue, the Forbidden Forest is too large and the clues are not directional. No matter how you look at it, it will make people have similar doubts.
Feeney didn't believe that the students or professors at Hogwarts hadn't thought about the Hufflepuff inheritance, and anyone who had this idea would definitely not let go of the obvious place of the kitchen.
The reason why Hufflepuff heirs have not appeared in the magic world until now may be because this clue is too fake.
However, Finny can think of these things, and he doesn't believe that other people can't think of them, so Hufflepuff must have other backers,

Rather make mistakes than let them go,

Feeney is very clear that no matter whether this clue is true or not, he can only go to trial and error. If he wants to find the inheritance of the four founders, this matter itself will not be that simple.
Those are the four founders of Hogwarts, and they have also gone very deep in the field of legendary wizards. You must know that in that era, even the Presbyterian Church could not overwhelm Hogwarts, if not for some later Things, and the disappearance or death of the four founders, maybe Hogwarts still maintains a detached position.

Now that he has decided to try and make mistakes, what Feeney needs to consider is if the treasure is really in the Forbidden Forest, where is the most likely place.

First of all, Feeney can be sure that this treasure will not be in the depths of the Forbidden Forest, those places that are far away from Hogwarts,

You must know that Hufflepuff's inherited treasure is also part of the mission of exploring Hogwarts, that is to say, the place where Hufflepuff's treasure is located belongs to the scope of Hogwarts, so, in fact, The size of the Forbidden Forest that Finney needs to explore is not so exaggerated.

As long as Finniken works hard, this part of the Forbidden Forest can definitely be turned upside down in a month or so and the treasure can be found.

"Puff!"

Sighing, she called Puff over,

Feeney is very clear that under such circumstances, it is difficult to achieve results behind closed doors. However, without preparation, even today he cannot easily enter the depths of the Forbidden Forest.

You must know that even a great wizard needs several people to form a team to explore the Forbidden Forest. Even so, there will be casualties.

"Master."

Naturally, Puff was always on call, appearing beside Feeney, quietly waiting for his order.

"I need a map of the Forbidden Forest, as long as it's around Hogwarts,"

Puff bowed, then turned around and disappeared in place,
Seeing the puffs disappear, Feeney breathed a sigh of relief, put aside these things in his heart for the time being, and enjoyed this rare vacation quietly,

"Hmm~"

"Um~"

Two muffled groans sounded in the Room of Response. Hearing the sound, Finny put the coffee cup on the table, and turned his head, which had been looking out of the window and wondering what he was thinking,

"Are you awake?"

A slightly smiling voice came from Finny's mouth. Obviously, the strange sleeping position of the twins made him feel very happy.
"Bah ah ah~"

George spit out a little depressed, looked at Finny and asked very depressed,

"Phinney, why do I always feel a strange taste in my mouth, like old vinegar that has expired,"

After hearing this, Feeney finally couldn't help laughing, and the laugh was exaggerated,

George and Fred looked puzzled,
After a while, Feeney stopped laughing, looked at George and said,

"Well, maybe it's the smell of Fred's feet. After all, when you're sleeping, you gnaw on it very fragrant. Puchi~"

As he spoke, he couldn't hold back again, and laughed,

And George and Fred hit each other because of this sentence,
It is actually a bit inaccurate to say that they are fighting, the two are more like playing around.

I don't know how long it has passed, but Feeney stopped the two of them this time.
"Okay, you two will be arguing later, we should go to eat,"

Fred looked at Finny suspiciously, and was about to ask why he was successfully attacked by George when he was going to have breakfast today, fell to the ground again, and started fighting.

Finny sighed and said,
"I have some things for Puff to do, so it doesn't have time to prepare breakfast for you now, okay, stop making trouble, let's go to the kitchen, just in time, I also want to ask the house elves about some things .”

Only then did the two stop fighting and came to the kitchen with Feeney again.

The house elves still serve the three of them enthusiastically, but this time, Finny has a different feeling, probably because he knows that they will be regarded as objects by humans until they die, or even after death. use the resulting emotion called sympathy,
Of course, no matter what, as a beneficiary of the existence of the house-elf race, Finny will not be so stupid as to do the kind of campaign to liberate the house-elves that Hermione wants to do in the original book, which will not only hurt his own interests , will also offend the authority of the entire magic world.

It's a pity that Hermione in the original book doesn't understand and doesn't understand this point. It can be imagined that if she hadn't been married to the Weasley family who played a role in the fight against the mysterious man, and had a deep relationship with Harry, the savior, it would have been There is no way to enter the power center of the Ministry of Magic, let alone become the new Minister of Magic a few years later as in the original book.

That is because many pure-blood families were greatly traumatized in the war when the mysterious man attacked Hogwarts. They had no time to estimate that the house-elves were convenient for them, but they would not cause obvious problems after losing them. Otherwise, even if Hermione is also a member of the Saviors, she will still not be able to become the Minister of Magic.

Shaking my head, I cleared these strange thoughts from inside,

Feeney then looked at Dodo and asked,
"Duo, I have some questions I want to ask you."

Duoduo heard the words, hurriedly bowed to Feeney, and said,

"Master Black has something to ask Duoduo, as long as Duoduo knows, he will definitely answer."

Feeney nodded, and asked his own question,
"A lot, do you house elves have any records about Ms. Hufflepuff, such as where is her favorite place in the Forbidden Forest?"

Duoduo was taken aback for a moment, and said very puzzled,
"Do you know this question, because this question is often asked, Ms. Hufflepuff has no particular favorite place in the Forbidden Forest, and there is no place where she stays for a long time. Ms. Hufflepuff is very fond of house-elves. Well, Dodo won't speak ill of Ms. Hufflepuff!"

Hearing this, Feeney had some thoughts in his mind, and it was exactly what he thought. What he could think of, others must be able to think of it too. After all, Hogwarts has existed for thousands of years, even if there are only dozens of students every year, Thousands of years ago, there have been tens of thousands of people. Among these people, there must be people who are as wise as demons, and there must be someone who can think of everything that Feeney thought of, and even think of many things that Feeney did not think of. Feeney didn't believe that Hufflepuff's inheritance, which had never been discovered before, could be found out so easily.

He just wanted to try to determine what was in his mind. As long as someone else asked the house-elf similar questions before, it could prove that Finny's thinking was not wrong, at least it seems so now,

One person may be wrong, two may be a coincidence, three, four, or even more judge the clue in this way, then it must be correct,

The only thing that is uncertain is whether those seniors have found other clues, whether they have determined the location of the treasure in the Forbidden Forest,

If there are none of these, then it is understandable that there has been no news of Hufflepuff inheritance for thousands of years,
However, if someone finds these things, then it can only prove one thing, the place where Hufflepuff hides the treasure is very dangerous, those who search for the treasure either died there, or found the treasure, but couldn't Open,

Although he didn't want to admit it, Feeney felt that it was more likely that those people died in the treasure.

After all, he was sure now that Hufflepuff was not an honest person.

After breakfast, the twins went to the courtyard to have a snowball fight, where there were other students staying at school,

And Feeney once returned to the Room of Requirement, and then entered his private library,
The reason to enter in the Room of Requirement is because no one else will come here.It's not absolutely safe, but it's much safer than the empty classrooms at this time,

After all, the school is already on holiday. At this time, both professors and students in the school have time and experience to wander back and forth, and there is a high possibility of entering an empty classroom.

Feeney checked the books in his collection in the private library, trying to find the description of the Forbidden Forest in the description of Hufflepuff. very important.

Unfortunately, until the evening when the twins came to the Room of Requirement to find him and go to the auditorium to attend the Christmas dinner, he did not find any records about Hufflepuff and the Forbidden Forest.

The only reason to say it was a Christmas dinner is because today is Christmas. In fact, the meal that is finished today is not much different from usual. If I have to say the difference, compared with last night, it is the students who stayed in Hogwarts. They all came to the auditorium for today's dinner.

The school was officially closed yesterday, and the students who returned home got up early in the morning to take the express train to London, while the students who stayed at school took out the food they had prepared before and left them in the common room to hold their own parties.

In fact, students like Finny who go directly to the kitchen are very good. Although many Hogwarts students know the location of the kitchen, such as Hufflepuff, the whole school knows it, but there are still many people who do not know where the kitchen is. don't know this place,
After all, few people will pay special attention to the location of the kitchen, only some students who like to go out at night, eat late at night, or often take risks will pay attention to this place,

At the end of the day, not only the students were present, Dumbledore and other professors also came to the auditorium to accompany these little wizards who could not return home to spend the holiday with their relatives on days like Christmas due to various reasons.

Ding Ding Ding ~
Professor Dumbledore tapped the goblet lightly with a silver spoon, making a crisp sound, which attracted the attention of everyone in the auditorium, and then spoke slowly,
"Everyone, Merry Christmas, everyone's gifts will be delivered to the corresponding common room under the Christmas tree before tomorrow morning, with your name on it, please don't open it wrong, and then, today, a special butterbeer from the Three Broomsticks is provided , I hope you like it, and finally, let’s eat.”

With Dumbledore's simple speech, the banquet officially began.

Unlike the Halloween dinner, there are no performances or songs tonight, but everyone still feels a little warmth in the auditorium,
You may have lost your loved ones due to various reasons, or you may not be able to get the company of your loved ones, but it doesn't matter, because this is Hogwarts, because there are also friends who are similar to your relatives to accompany you.

Because there would be gifts the next day, the twins did not return to the Room of Requirement with Finny after the banquet, but chose to return to the Gryffindor common room.

As for Finny, it doesn't matter, because Puff will deliver his gifts under the Christmas tree in the Room of Requirement, and there is no need to go back to the common room to wait.

When he returned to the Room of Requirement, Puff had already returned from the Forbidden Forest.
"Why did you come back?"

Finny frowned and asked,
Although Puff is a house elf, as the captain of Finny's personal guard, he has undergone special training.
