Hogwarts: I have graduated before the system came

Chapter 178 It's Not A Fuel-Efficient Lamp

Lupine watched Harry's movements, squeezed a smile on his tired face and said:

"I've heard of 'The Pingtou Who Loves Bananas' a long time ago, and his novels have accompanied me through many dark days.

It was later discovered that he was the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts. Principal Dumbledore told me a lot about him. He is unique in magic and has his own standards for education...

I really didn't expect him to be your cousin, I never heard of it before...

It seems that I really need to find time to have a good chat with him, and hope to see him at Hogwarts this time. "

The words behind him stunned the people in the carriage.

Harry asked curiously:

"Professor Lupine, do you know my cousin? I heard from him that he is very familiar with the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor..."

Lupine was taken aback when he heard Harry's words, then suddenly thought of something, and said with a smile:

"Professor Holmes and I have never met before, only read his novels.

But he is indeed very familiar with the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, of course, if nothing unexpected happens...

I still need to talk to the driver, you guys talk..."

With that, Lupine strode out of the cubicle.

The dementors outside had already been forced outside the train.

The group of sixth and seventh graders who were driving the dementors were surrounded by a crowd of people cheering.

Percy and Penello looked at each other sweetly, while drawing circles in each other's palms, they said symbolically:

"Don't hurt them, they are the Azkaban guards sent by the Ministry of Magic to check the carriage."

Percy had already received a message from Douglas, telling him some truths, allowing him to secretly help Harry complete the task under certain circumstances.

But he was also asked not to stand up against the Ministry of Magic...

And he was allowed to tell Penello about this in the name of Dumbledore, and the two could act together.

In order to create opportunities for the younger brother, Douglas took great pains.

In the cubicle, the excitement resumed again.

Harry and the others had a heated discussion about the meaning of Professor Lupine's last sentence and the dementors.

Still at home in Holmes, far away in Surrey.

Douglas complained and wrote and drew on the paper.

Dobby was eating chocolate, panting.

Sirius Black has nothing to be ashamed of, after all, he bought this condition with ten years of freedom. If it wasn't for being able to see Harry often, he would never agree to research alchemy products for him for ten years. matter.

After all, neither of them is a fuel-efficient lamp. They were both characters who gave the professor a headache at Hogwarts.

In the original plan, Sirius would wait for Harry to investigate the truth at home in Hogwarts, and then the two would contact through the two-way mirror.

(A two-way mirror is a pair of small square mirrors magically linked that allow people to communicate with each other in different locations.)

Sirius knew that the two-way mirror known in the magic world was in the old house of the Black family. He and James often used this thing to communicate, so he was sure that Douglas did not have a two-way mirror, so at the beginning of the agreement, I thought of how to play tricks and let the other party take me to Hogwarts.

After all, he has been imprisoned in Azkaban for more than ten years, and let him stay in Douglas' house. Although the conditions are ten thousand times better than Azkaban's, but without Harry's Sherlock Holmes house, Sirius feels more uncomfortable than going to jail .

But Sirius didn't expect that before leaving, Douglas really took out the two-way mirror.

This made him have to thick-skinned and started to play a rogue, insisting on going to Hogwarts with Douglas.

Douglas felt that he shouldn't believe some of the promises made by the predator, expecting him to be honest, he might as well expect Banban to surrender himself.

Not taking him to Hogwarts was not because he was worried that he would be discovered.

Instead, he was worried that he could not control himself, so he went to kill Ban Ban in advance.

But now he was not allowed to go, and Douglas was worried that Sirius would go to Hogwarts by himself, unless he could make up his mind and tie him up like a dog.

So after signing a package of treaties with Sirius, Douglas used contract magic this time.

Unless Sirius didn't care that Harry couldn't have children in the future, he had to follow the contract honestly.

Of course, Sirius didn't notice at all that Douglas wrote in invisible ink in an inconspicuous part of the contract [The right to interpret this contract belongs to Douglas Holmes. 】

The consequence of this is that according to the plan, Douglas has returned to Hogwarts early at this moment, drinking tea by the fire in his office, and then expecting the students' reactions after seeing him.

But now we have to add another secret passage to the outside world for Hogwarts.

To avoid detection by Hogwarts Castle and Dumbledore.

Douglas came up with the idea of ​​the Floo Network.

Of course, instead of linking to the Floo network of the Ministry of Magic, but through the apparation of the house elves, the door key (the door key is a magical item that can teleport the person who touches it to a designated location, the door key Use theories that are strictly regulated by the Ministry of Magic), different world magic teleportation circles, Floo networks, etc.

Bypassing the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts, connect your fireplace to the fireplace in your Hogwarts office.

After all, I can't let Sirius really live in the same office as me, it's not suitable, not suitable.

So from noon to afternoon, Dobby took Douglas to the Hogwarts Defense Against the Dark Arts office with Apparation several times.

Fortunately, Dumbledore was reliable and did not regard himself as a missing person, and cleaned up the Defense Against the Dark Arts office.

Finally, when it was dark, Douglas drew the required rune array on the paper, and all that was left was to draw this set of runes on the fireplaces in his home and office.

After spending another hour, Douglas finally drew the runes on both sides successfully.

Douglas then entered the information of the three into an identification rune.

After all, this matter is not only related to the safety of Hogwarts, but also the safety of the Douglas family.

Following a handful of Floo powder, the three of them were successfully teleported to the Defense Against the Dark Arts office in Hogwarts in turn.

The three waited in the office for a while, after confirming that Dumbledore hadn't noticed it, and that the Ministry of Magic hadn't detected any abnormalities.

Satisfied, Sirius returned to the Douglas home through the fireplace.

The two made an appointment, and contacted with the two-way mirror before coming to make sure there were no outsiders before teleporting.

Dobby was also sent back to study by Douglas.

With this secret passage, Douglas can return to his home in Surrey at any time.

So Dobby, who had expected to work with the house elves in Hogwarts Castle, was once again arranged by Douglas to learn the content.

What Sirius didn't know was that even without his request, Douglas planned to build a secret passage between Hogwarts and his home. Otherwise, how could such a complicated teleportation formation be successfully researched in one afternoon.

After all, half of the research on magical buildings has been done, and the verification may start at any time. Hogwarts magic interferes too much, so this experiment can only be done at home.

Now I still have a ten-year employee in vain, perfect!

Douglas looked at the time. At this time, the sorting ceremony should be going on in the auditorium.

He simply tidied up, changed his clothes, and walked quickly towards the auditorium.
