Chapter 75 74. Unimpeded

After the night enveloped the entire Hogwarts Castle, Jon lay quietly on the wooden bed.

The air was a little stuffy, because there was no window in the dormitory. At this time of transition from summer to autumn, it was easy to make people feel depressed.

Jon had no intention of sleeping. He was listening carefully to the footsteps that were gradually getting farther and farther away outside the door. It was the sound of the castle administrator Dolohov patrolling at the beginning of the curfew.

It has been a week since he came here, and Jon has basically figured out the habits of this castle administrator.

After the curfew begins, he will start patrolling from the basement to the top. After patrolling once, he will also return to his office to rest. Unless he hears something that shouldn't be there in the middle of the night, he will not go out at all.

So after his footsteps completely disappeared, he waited for about twenty minutes and sat up from the bed.

Instead of lighting the candle directly, he fumbled for his robe with an inner pocket. After taking out the cloth bag he found in the morning, he slowly drew out his wand.

This inner pocket on the clothes was specially made for him by Dumbledore. It was cast with a powerful traceless stretching spell. On the surface, it looked like an ordinary pocket, but in fact, there was a lot of space inside.

Gently waving the wand, he used the Transfiguration Spell to transform a feather pen in front of the bed into a pair of scissors, and then he put the wand away again.

Using the scissors, he cut the wick of the candle on the candlestick in the dark by two-thirds, and only lit it after ensuring that the flame would be small enough.

The light was very weak, but it was enough to illuminate the area in front of him.

With this little light, Jon opened the cloth bag he picked up from the wall today and took out various potion materials one by one.

Lacewings, crude antimony, leeches without mouthparts, sap grass picked during the full moon, grass leaf powder, two-horned beast horn powder, and the most important dried African tree snake skin strips.

The Polyjuice Potion made from these materials is enough for Jon to use two bottles a day for a month. If there is more, this bag, which has also been spelled with the Traceless Extension Charm, is not unable to hold it, but the medicinal properties of the materials cannot be guaranteed over time.

The Traceless Extension Charm can only stretch space, but cannot freeze time. This is why Dumbledore did not directly prepare a sufficient amount of Polyjuice Potion for Jon for a school year before coming. If it is not used for a long time, the efficacy of the Polyjuice Potion prepared in advance will also disappear. Jon must be self-sufficient in Hogwarts Castle.

After checking that there is no problem with the materials sent over, Jon was about to put the things back into the bag when he reached the innermost part of the bag and suddenly touched something cold like liquid.

Jon was stunned at first, and then he took out the light thing that seemed to be non-existent.

This is a transparent cloak with a faint silver light. When Jon saw it for the first time, he subconsciously held his breath.

There was also a note on the cloak.

[After Lily knew where you went, she asked me to give it to you. Keep it well.]

After reading the content on the note, Jon immediately placed it on top of the candle and lit it. After watching the flames brighten for a few seconds and then go out again, he knew very well what the cloak given to him was.

Invisibility cloak!

It was not the ordinary stuff sold in the magic world, made of the fur of invisible beasts or with the Disillusionment Charm.

If this invisibility cloak was originally in Lily's hands, then it was very likely one of the three Deathly Hallows that had been passed down by the Potter family, the one in Harry Potter's hands in the original book!

After the death of Harry and James, the Potter family was basically certain to be extinct, so this invisibility cloak was naturally passed to Lily.

Jon looked at the invisibility cloak in his hand, and his mood quickly calmed down from the initial excitement.

This thing can be said to be a precious relic left after the death of her husband and son. It is definitely of great significance to Lily. Now that she has given the invisibility cloak to Jon, if he has an accident, there will be no chance to return the invisibility cloak.

Jon can understand the meaning of this. In the previous year on the carriage, he could see that the only motivation for Lily to insist on living now is revenge.

Revenge on Voldemort, revenge on Snape, and revenge on all those who participated in the murder of her husband and son.

Let Dumbledore send this invisibility cloak to himself, so that he can move more conveniently in Hogwarts Castle to achieve the ultimate goal.

Perhaps there are some considerations for the safety of his student, but it is mainly for the uncontrollable hatred in his heart.

However, whether she is wholeheartedly considering his safety or not, Jon is grateful from the bottom of his heart for the invisibility cloak she sent.

With this thing, it will undoubtedly greatly facilitate his next actions!

He put everything except the invisibility cloak back into the bag, stuffed the bag back into the inner pocket of his robe, put on the robe and blew out the candle.

With the invisibility cloak, his plan, which had been postponed, could now be slightly advanced.

After carefully listening to the door for more than a minute to make sure there was no movement outside, Jon put on the invisibility cloak, completely concealed his figure, gently pushed open the door and walked out of the dormitory.

Outside was a dim corridor, with the candlesticks embedded in the wall flickering with a faint flame. Jon carefully pulled out his wand and then walked to the iron door at the end of the corridor.

At the beginning of the curfew, after Dolohov inspected the basement, he would lock the iron door, which was like a cell, from the outside and would not come to open it until the next morning. Without a wand, the mudblood students who could not learn any spells outside of class except for the professor would not be able to open this door even in the seventh grade.

But for Jon, who had a wand and had experienced a year of orthodox magic education, this locked iron door was useless.

He slowly extended the front end of the wand out of the invisibility cloak and tapped it gently at the door lock.

"Alaho, open."

The weak sound of the unlocking spell sounded, and the tightly closed iron door creaked and was opened by Jon from the inside.

He walked out of the basement, then locked the door again from the outside, and then turned and walked up the stairs.

The entire Hogwarts Castle was silent except for the whirring sound of the wind.

And on this night, a "mudblood" who was previously bound will now be free.
