Chapter 80 79. Who can tell in the future
The Marauder's Map, a magical map created by the four-person Marauders, marked almost all the locations and secret passages of Hogwarts Castle. Reveals the names of all people, ghosts, in this castle.
Even if Jon is now wearing an invisibility cloak, drinking Polyjuice Potion, and standing on the first floor of the castle on the Marauder's Map, the revealed name is not "Randy Smith", but "Jon Green ".
The role of this map is very important for Jon who is sneaking into the Hogwarts castle today. It can be said that with it and the invisibility cloak, there is almost no place in the entire castle that he cannot go.
More importantly, it also marked the entrances of all the secret passages in the castle, which meant that Jon had the opportunity to get out of the castle and communicate with Dumbledore directly outside!
This map is equivalent to opening a full map for Jon, removing all the fog of war in the castle, allowing him to know the movements of everyone in Hogwarts like the back of his hand.
Jon carefully glanced at the names of everyone now marked on the Marauder's map.
In fact, after entering Hogwarts Castle, he has been wondering about one thing, that is, why all the ghosts in the school have disappeared?
Now even if he got the Marauder's Map, he still didn't get anything. Peeves, Bloody Barrow, Ms. Gray, Nearly Headless Nick, all the ghosts with their names in the original book, he didn't find half of them on the map. same name.
Ghosts have already died once, and there is no way to be killed after that. Whether it is the unforgivable killing curse or the direct death of the basilisk, there is no way for them to die again.
The only explanation for the current situation is that they have all been taken out of the castle, but Jon has never seen these ghosts in the carriage, so why did Voldemort take them out of the castle?
Jon couldn't figure out this problem for the time being. Just as he was about to stretch out his wand to cancel the magic on the Marauder's map, he suddenly found that a person's name seemed to move suddenly at the bottom of the entire map.
Jon stopped what he was doing, frowned slightly, and looked down at the location directly below that should be the basement of the castle, but found that every name was well in his room, and there were no names. People move around or go out.
He didn't immediately judge that this was his own illusion, but still stared at this position on the map for five or six minutes, and finally continued the action he had just stopped, and tapped lightly on the Marauder's Map.
"The prank is over."
The lines on the map were all gathered, and finally condensed into ink dots on the tip of his staff and then disappeared.
Jon put away the map that had turned into plain parchment, then tightened the invisibility cloak he was wearing, and walked out of Filch's office.
Even if someone really moved just now, it wouldn't make him too frightened. Even Mudblood students, there is no rule that they can't get up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom.
Walking down the basement, he closed the "cell door" behind his back, and a "squeak" sound caused by rusted hinges echoed in the silent corridor of the basement bedroom.
Locked the door again, and he returned to his bedroom.
However, what Jon didn't realize was that the door of a dormitory he had just passed was not closed, and an eye hidden in the night stared at the deserted corridor. The dormitory door of the student named "Randy Smith" was opened and then locked...
It's October.
The weather has gradually started to get colder, and the pure-blood and mixed-race students have all changed into thicker school robes, and even the mudblood students have each received a worn-out thick robe, which can be worn on the body to keep out the cold .
Even though most of the students have basically learned the cleansing spell cast by hand gestures, this spell is not a panacea. It can be applied to most scenes, but some mudblood students still need to do it themselves.
The atmosphere in Hogwarts Castle has become more and more heated recently, because October also means that it is the time for the start of the Quidditch competition every semester.
This is something that can easily excite the students studying in the castle for the magic world, which itself lacks entertainment activities.
However, the two separated colleges, mixed blood and pure blood, will not compete with each other, but the ratio of mixed blood to mixed blood, pure blood to pure blood within the college.
Students who have ideas can go to the flight professor who specializes in this matter to apply for the establishment of a team, and then each team will compete with each other. Material rewards, and leaving the team name in the very center of the trophy room.
It is obviously Voldemort's intention to separate mixed-blood and pure-blood students in terms of education and sports. He wanted to make the mentality that pure-blood should have privileges deeply engraved in half-blood wizards when they were young. In their hearts, let them accept this matter from the bottom of their hearts no matter now or in the future, then the class in the future magic world will be completely solidified.
However, no matter how lively the castle was, it had nothing to do with the Mudblood students. On the contrary, this mixed-blood and pure-blood carnival just added a lot of workload to them.
Before the game, they have to clean up the idle court in advance, and the work of cleaning up the scene after the game also falls on them.
The first Quidditch game ended on Saturday, and Jon and his second cleaning job started on the weekend after the game.
Because of the previous experience, the work progress of the second-year students this time is much faster than the previous one.
"Come on, Randy, your spells are better than mine, and you should be able to clean these things up."
The man had previously told Jon Filch the exact location of the office. The boy named Hanton looked at what was spilled on the ground. He didn't know if it was pumpkin juice or a drink like butter beer. He approached Jon and said to him.
Jon nodded, handed him the broom in his hand, and asked him to clean up the colorful ribbons that fell all over the auditorium.
"Actually, you just have some deviations in pronunciation. You can use the cleansing spell well by changing your habits a little."
"Hermione told me that too." Hanton took the broom with an envious expression on his face, "Your talent is really good. Professor Sinistra taught it just once, and you can all learn it."
"Learning magic not only requires hard work and hard work, but you must also be able to accept the process." Jon didn't immediately use the cleaning spell, he was determined to teach the boy something, "When casting a spell, we have to rely on our thoughts and thoughts." Will to complete the spell, if you are interested in the spell itself, then it is actually not difficult to learn."
Hanton lowered his voice.
"I secretly watched those wizarding students compete. They can actually fly in the sky on a broomstick! That's very interesting!"
"Be careful, if Dolokhov catches you peeping, it will be a disaster."
Hanton looked up at the blue sky above his head, and he put the ordinary broom handed to him by Jon under his crotch, as if he, like those mixed-race and pure-blood students, was already flying on a broom to the sky.
"It would be great if I could fly like them." He said longingly.
Jon didn't look at Hanton. His eyes never moved away from the drink stain in front of him, but he never started to cast a spell. He broke the short silence and murmured in a voice that Handon didn't know if he could hear. .
"In the future. Who can say for sure."
