Chapter 111 109. Chance
Jon stared at Dolohov's back, and at the same time, out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the school doctor Lestrange who was walking towards him, who looked like he had something to discuss.
Unobtrusively, Jon shook his head at Hermione who was also waiting on the side.
Hermione pursed her lips and turned from outside the iron door of the basement dormitory back to the iron door. Together with Jon, she landed at the end of the mudblood student team and walked back to her dormitory.
"We'll talk about it tonight." Jon whispered beside Hermione in a voice that only the two of them could hear.
Hermione didn't speak, but nodded in disappointment.
And Dolohov, who was totally unaware of their small movements, was listening to Lestrange's invitation.
".You know, if you hadn't been a big show at the Christmas dinner, Mr. Crouch would not have invited you. In previous years, when our card club gathered, there were only a few professors from the same twenty-eight family."
Dolohov showed a smile on his face. He knew that because of Voldemort's words at the dinner that night, he had actually squeezed into the core circle of pure blood.
"Of course, I have always been yearning for this club founded by Mr. Crouch, but...you know, I didn't have any chance before. When will the party be?"
"It was originally scheduled for Friday night, but that day the Carrow brothers and sisters were going home to celebrate their mother's birthday, and they would spend this weekend at home. Mr. Crouch arranged the time. On Thursday, several of their professors There were no classes, Mr Crouch did have a Charms class himself, but that was in the afternoon, so the party was rescheduled for Wednesday night at 9 o'clock."
Lestrange looked at Dolohov and reminded.
"I know that you still have to patrol after 8 o'clock every day, and you should be careful not to be late. Some other people were not satisfied with the invitation."
Dolokhov asked hesitantly.
"Professors don't have classes on Thursday, but I still have a work party during the day and hold it all night?"
"We usually play cards and play all night. If you have something to do during the day, there is an accommodation room upstairs in the Three Brooms Bar, where you can rest. We have known each other for so many years, don't blame me for not reminding you, you want to rest Yes, but pay attention to the occasion and don't spoil everyone's interest, otherwise this is your first time participating in a rally and it will probably be your last."
"You don't need to remind me, I'm not unreasonable to that extent."
They chatted and walked out of the basement, and then parted at the stairs on the first floor.
Dolokhov was in a better mood than ever. He returned to his office humming a little tune, feeling that after last year's Christmas dinner, his future was bright.
The night is quiet.
In Hermione's bedroom, Jon said solemnly.
"This kind of thing can't be done by force. If an accident happened during the attack on Dolokhov and someone else discovered it, it would be tantamount to wasting all previous efforts. We won't even have the last chance to fight."
In fact, his main responsibility for managing the castle is to take care of the Mudblood students. As long as Jon can find a way to deal with him, and then use compound soup to change him into his appearance, then at that time, at noon on Thursday, he can give a The second-year Mudblood students assigned a cleaning job on the third floor of the castle, and then they could get everyone out of the castle without anyone noticing when they figured out the time.
But the difficulty of this matter lies in how to solve Dolokhov without disturbing anyone else.
In terms of strength, Jon is definitely not as good as an adult wizard like him, especially a Death Eater who has followed Voldemort for more than ten years and survived many battles.
And if Dolohov is allowed to react, he will definitely not hold back at all, and directly cast a death curse on Jon.
The gem that Jon just got contains powerful magic power, but these magic powers can only be used for the magic on his ring—the Levitation Curse and the Breaking Curse, but neither of these two spells can block the Killing Curse Effect.
So he could only sneak attack, knocking Dolokhov down when he was completely unprepared.
It is difficult to find such an opportunity that there must be no other people around, and Dolokhov must be completely defenseless.
Three days have passed since Jon came up with this method, and when they returned to the basement in the evening, that was their best chance. Originally, they planned to let Hermione attract Dolohov's attention, and Jon would do it again , but the arrival of Lestrange can only force them to terminate their original plan.
Hermione sat on the bed with her knees hugged, and she looked at Jon.
"Can you find another chance?"
Jon crossed his hands and his face darkened, he said in a low voice.
"Then look for an opportunity at night. The action time is set the day after tomorrow. I will try to sneak into Dolokhov's room tomorrow night. No one will disturb him at night, and he will not be vigilant."
Wednesday night, after the curfew completely started, Jon sat up from the bed. He took out the Marauder's Map, lit a candle and began to watch Dolokhov's every move.
He watched from the map that after leaving the Mudblood's underground dormitory, the castle warden went all the way up, inspecting every floor of the castle, and then at 8:50, he unexpectedly came from Hogwarts. The door of the gate left the confines of the school.
Jon couldn't sit still in the bedroom.
He knew very well that tonight was the only chance if he still wanted to plan to pretend to be Dolokhov.
Without staying for a moment, he immediately put on the cloak of invisibility, and left Hogwarts through the secret passage, and came to the brightly lit Pig's Head Bar.
It's only past nine o'clock now, and there are still many wizards drinking and chatting in the bar. Jon carefully avoids everyone, walks up to Aberforth who is preparing cider for the guests behind the bar, and pulls Pull the hem of his robe.
Aberforth understood right away.
He didn't clear the bar immediately, that would be too obvious, but called a familiar wizard and asked him to help look at the tavern below, and then took Jon with him under the pretext of going to the cellar to get wine To the underground wine cellar in the backyard.
"I wanted to get rid of Dolohov and pretend to be him, and take the students to the secret passage tomorrow, but he came out of the school tonight. I need your help to go to Hogsmeade and see if he is still in this place." In the small town, if he is there and there is only one person, then we will be more confident in attacking together!"
Jon quickly finished talking about the current situation, and Aberforth also made a decisive decision without stopping. He told Jon to wait for his news in the wine cellar, and then returned to the ground.
