Chapter 83 82 Hogsmeade

Chapter 83 82. Hogsmeade

This gathering ended before the Halloween dinner above.

Because she was caught once last semester, as a new organizer, Hermione must be more careful. Once she takes a wrong step, it will not only be her, but also the second-year and first-year students will be implicated.

Just as Jon thought, such a gathering is not to organize the mudblood students to resist in some action. If they really do that, it will not only be meaningless, but also kill everyone.

The students gathered together, just the older ones told the younger ones the real truth, and what they learned in class was all deception, that's all.

The excitement in Hogwarts Castle gradually died down after 10 o'clock. Dolohov performed his duties as an administrator and drove all the pure-blood and half-blood students who wanted to stay in the corridor back to their dormitories.

And at midnight, the whole Hogwarts was quiet, and it was at this time that Jon opened the Marauder's Map in the dormitory.

After confirming from the Marauder's Map that no one was wandering around in the castle, he put on his invisibility cloak, left the underground dormitory, went to the first floor, walked straight through the hallway, and sneaked out of the castle.

He walked along the lawn to the direction of the Quidditch field. Like the previous routes, he walked quickly towards the gate along the wall that surrounded the entire school.

Until he came to the place where he left the note last time, Jon squatted down, pushed aside the weeds that had turned a little yellow, and finally found a cloth bag in the soil in the moonlight that was exactly the same as the one he got a month ago.

This time he did not put the cloth bag away immediately, but directly opened the closing and fumbled inside. After that, he really took out a palm-sized note from it.

Jon pulled out his wand and whispered the spell.

"Luminescent flash."

The faint light that suddenly lit up at the tip of the wand illuminated the darkness in front of him, and also allowed him to see the content recorded on the note.

There was no text on it, just a pig head with fangs drawn in black ink.

After seeing this pattern, Jon suddenly understood everything.

Before, he was still guessing who this person who sent him a batch of potion materials every month was. Now that he saw this, he knew it all.

Thinking about it carefully, it was indeed true. The number of wizards in the entire magic world who knew the relationship between this person and Dumbledore could be counted on one hand. If he had not been able to help in the battle of the fall of Hogwarts seven years ago, Dumbledore would most likely let him continue to conceal his identity and lurk near Hogwarts Castle.

After thinking about this clearly, Jon immediately stuffed the note and the cloth bag containing the potion materials into his pocket, then put away his wand, put on the invisibility cloak and returned to the castle.

After returning to the castle, he did not return to the mudblood's underground dormitory, but hid under the invisibility cloak, while looking at the Marauder's Map in his hand, he came to the Gunhilda Corridor of Gosmoor on the third floor.

In this corridor is a statue of a hunchbacked one-eyed old witch. Because there are no classrooms and professors' offices around, and the statue itself looks a bit weird, few students usually come here.

Jon went around behind the old witch statue, he raised his wand and tapped the statue's hunchback gently.

"Separate left and right."

The next second, the hunchback opened, revealing a stone slide.

Jon finally confirmed the information on the Marauder's Map. After ensuring that there was no one around, he put away the map, clenched the wand in his hand, and entered the secret passage and slid down.

This is an extremely long slide. After entering the secret passage, he used the lighting spell, and the front of him was winding and undulating, and he could not see the end at all.

The slide lasted for more than ten minutes before Jon stepped on the solid ground again. In front of him was a stone staircase leading upwards. There were about a hundred steps, and the light of the illumination spell was not enough to illuminate the end of the stone staircase.

Jon began to walk up the stone staircase. He did not count carefully, but it felt that he had walked about two hundred steps to the end of the secret passage. There was a wooden trap door above his head.

After opening the door, Jon crawled out of the secret passage. At this moment, he had completely left Hogwarts Castle and came to the wizard town outside the school - Hogsmeade Village!

If there were no major changes in the shops in this village, then the room he was in now should be the cellar of Honeydukes Candy Store.

Looking at the messy wooden barrels and boxes around, Jon did not stay in this cellar for long. He approached the door, used an unlocking spell on the locked door, and then came to this village for the first time from the back door of the candy store.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but looking at the wide and straight streets, Jon can feel that his breathing has become much easier.

The oppressive atmosphere of Hogwarts Castle can only be felt after coming out of it.

Even when he arrived in Hogsmeade, Jon still did not take off his invisibility cloak. He began to search along the streets of this wizarding town and soon got the result.

This is a small bar. The tattered wooden sign hangs on the rusty bracket on the door, with a chopped pig's head nailed on it. In the night, you can vaguely see the blood seeping through the white cloth wrapped around it.

Still without taking off his invisibility cloak, Jon knocked gently on the closed door of the bar.

The knocking sound echoed in the quiet night, but there was no movement from inside. He did not stop the movement of his hands, but continued to knock on the door.

Not long after, there was finally a response from inside the bar, a rude and impatient voice.

"Do you understand the rules? No accommodation after 10 o'clock! If you have no place to sleep, just lie at the door and wait for me to open the door the next day! Even if you are a pure-blooded master, if you knock on the door again, I will make your head as big as a troll!"

Jon was still unyielding, as if he would smash the door if he didn't open it.

Soon there was a sound of "dong dong dong" from the bar, and someone walked down the wooden stairs quickly, accompanied by a burst of irritable curses.

The door of the bar was opened from the inside, and a grumpy old man in pajamas, with a ponytail and a short but thick beard, stared at the empty door with his wand raised.

"Excuse me, do you sell phoenix tears?"

A slightly childish voice sounded out of nowhere, causing the blue pupils of the old man who smelled of sheep to shrink suddenly.
