Some time ago, Hogwarts organized third-year students to go to Hogsmeade Village. This thing was just like the spring outing organized by the school in its previous life.
Originally, Harry might not be able to go, because this requires the signature of a parent or guardian.
In the past, Dursley and the others would definitely not have given Harry his signature.
But now Harry is living with the Hall family. Although he has not been adopted, he is at least recognized by the Dursley family and can exercise his guardianship rights.
There are more weird things here than Diagon Alley, because this is the only pure wizard village in the UK.
The buildings here still retain the medieval architectural style, which looks very simple and full of magic.
Harry, Eli, and Draco are the three richest people who have almost booked this place. They buy whatever they see.
"Everyone, I, Mr. Ma, will pay for today's consumption!"
"Fuck you, minors are not allowed to come to the bar!"
A grumpy old man kicked out all the braggarts.
Although Eli's goal of controlling the potion market has not been completed yet, his previous business has brought him huge wealth.
Let's put it this way, at least he can be ranked high on the Hogwarts wealth list. The only person in front of him is the professor.
Although the little wizards have money at home, they still have to ask for pocket money from their families!
Unlike Eli, who has all the money in his own hands, he is also a rich man.
Several people returned to Hogwarts carrying large and small bags. Those who didn't know better thought that these guys had gone to buy some goods.
Eliot specially gave Dumbledore a large pile of cockroaches and a lot of candies.
The old man liked sweets, and Eli was afraid that one day Old Deng would be diagnosed with diabetes.
This can be regarded as compensation for Old Dengtou. After all, the previous ballet pictures of the 100-year-old principal have spread almost throughout Hogwarts, and even outside newspapers have rumors that Dumbledore secretly danced ballet in school.
Out of compensation for the old man's mental damage, Eli was generous.
At that time, he was in fear for several days. Neville had been deducted fifty points by Snape, and there was no news from Dumbledore.
Eli was afraid that one day Dumbledore would call him to the office and raise his wand and shout, "Avada kills you!"
Eli was still young and didn't want to die tragically at the hands of the legendary wizard.
However, Dumbledore was in a good mood when delivering the sweets and praised Eli for being polite, which made Eli feel relieved.
When he was about to leave the principal's office, Dumbledore suddenly said from behind, "I'm too old to play with those things anymore." This
frightened Eli into a cold sweat. When he returned to the dormitory, he still had a cold when he thought about it. Goosebumps.
Harry, Ron and Hermione all returned to Gryffindor Tower. While waiting for the spiral staircase, there was a noise in front of them.
"What's going on in front?"
"Is it blocked? Or has Neville forgotten the password again?"
"Hey, I'm here!"
Neville greeted everyone dissatisfied and showed his presence.
There was a lot of noise in the front, and it didn't look like someone had forgotten the password.
"Make way, please make way. I am the president of the student union, please let me pass."
Percy shouted from the front.
Percy came to the door of the Gryffindor lounge and said, "Everyone, stand back. The dormitory must be completely searched now. No one is allowed in!"
Ginny ran down from above and came to Harry and the others, "It's the Fat Lady. She's gone!"
Several people looked at the door in surprise. Sure enough, there was no trace of her in the original portrait of the Fat Lady, and there were several ferocious scratches on the painting paper.
"It's best if she's gone, she sings like a killing pig."
"This is no joke, Ron."
The portraits on the wall were extremely noisy. They had always been relatively quiet, and they all made a fuss today.
The portraits closest to the Fat Lady started to cry, as if they had witnessed some terrible process.
"Everyone, please be quiet. Gryffindors, please return to the common room immediately."
"Get out of the way, get out of the way, the principal is here!"
Filch shouted from behind.
"Hurry up, don't you hear me, get out of the way!"
Filch followed Dumbledore and yelled rudely at the surrounding students.
Dumbledore strode to the door of the lounge, looking at the ferocious scratches on the portrait of the Fat Lady, his face was very solemn.
After learning about Sirius Black's presence around Hogwarts, Dumbledore had been preparing for emergencies.
He didn't know the truth back then. He didn't know that Sirius had secretly changed the Secret Keeper. So when the evidence was overwhelming and Sirius himself had no excuse, Dumbledore believed that he was a Death Eater.
Dumbledore is righteous, but not indecisive.
He was a jealous Gryffindor. When Snape agreed to act as an intermediary for him around Voldemort, Dumbledore allowed Snape, a Death Eater, to be found innocent without trial with just one word.
When he believed Sirius was the murderer, Dumbledore could watch as Sirius was imprisoned in Azkaban without trial.
Now, Sirius was a dangerous murderer to Dumbledore.
"Mr. Filch, call all the ghosts immediately and ask them to search every painting in the castle to find the Fat Lady!" "
There is no need to call the ghost professor, she is there."
Filch pointed to a painting not far away. portrait.
All the students also looked there, and soon some students with good intentions rushed over.
Dumbledore walked there.
"Slow down, don't rush! I'm the student council president! Come back here!", Percy yelled.
"Keep going!"
Dumbledore pushed the students forward again, making way for them.
When Dumbledore came to the portrait, it seemed like an animal painting.
"Fat Madam, who did this?" Dumbledore said to the portrait.
From behind a cow, the fat lady with disheveled hair carefully revealed her head.
She was still crying.
"He has a pair of devilish eyes and a soul as dark as his name. He is the headmaster, the man everyone is talking about. He is here! In the castle, Sirius Black!" The Fat Lady looked terrified
.
Dumbledore's expression became solemn again, "Search the castle, Mr. Filch, everyone else goes to the auditorium!"
Dumbledore asked everyone present to disperse slowly, and led them to the auditorium under the leadership of the prefects.
Eli was originally in the dormitory and was also called to the auditorium.
"What happened?"
"It was him. He came to the castle and almost hurt the Fat Lady!"
Harry said to Eli, who looked a little excited.
Eli's heart skipped a beat and he pressed Harry's shoulder, "Promise me, you won't go looking for him casually yet!" What
Eli was most afraid of now was that Harry would run to Black for theory if his head got hot.
At that time, a madman who has been tortured by Azkaban for twelve years will lose his mind and may cause some trouble.
