Admiral of Hogwarts

"Ginger and Fishcake are so smart. Sometimes I suspect that they are not cats but some magical creatures that look like cats." Hermione looked at a fish running past her silently. Pancake sighed softly. Because it was Ginger who discovered the wandering Peeves in advance and asked them to avoid it from another way.

In fact, Hermione had already discovered the difference between this cat and other cats in the first month of raising Ginger, because this cat basically does not need anyone to worry about it and can eat at a fixed time and place. Use the toilet at a fixed time and place. It's even quite humane and will appear next to you and act cute when you need it.

Later, Hermione even discovered that she could give some commands to her cats and let them complete some simple tasks, just like some well-trained hunting dogs. She felt a little strange at first, but she put it down when she learned from several pure-blood wizard classmates that there were many cat-like creatures in the magical world and could produce offspring with cats that were similar to ordinary cats. Worry about your pet.

She even learned to let ginger help her in daily life. For example, when she occasionally goes out for night outings to read, she would take ginger to watch for herself, or she would ask the cat to help her pay attention to the situation outside when using the bathroom to take a bath. And Hermione naturally wouldn't forget to bring her cat with her on today's night outing.

"You're right." Hugo said after hearing his sister's emotion. "They are some very smart little cuties. With their help, even if we don't have an invisibility cloak like Harry, we can move around the castle safely after curfew without being discovered."

In this way, the three people successfully arrived at the intersection of the corridor they had agreed on before and carefully checked the pillar on the left side of the entrance to the corridor. After the inspection, they found that the pillar was bare and had no patterns on it, which meant that Harry had not arrived yet.

In order to avoid being discovered, they used a pen to draw a symbol on the pillar at the entrance of the corridor as previously discussed, then hid in an empty classroom not far away and observed the entrance to the corridor through the crack in the door.

"I seem to hear some music." Hermione suddenly said after the two people hid, and she was reminded like this. Hugo also faintly heard the sound of the harp in the quiet corridor. Apparently Voldemort had arrived earlier than them tonight and had now entered the door and used music to put the three-headed dog to sleep.

"It is indeed music, I think maybe" Hugo said at this time, but he was stopped by Veneto directly in the middle of his words. "Hush, be quiet, I seem to hear footsteps approaching here."

Ship girls are much more powerful in perception than humans, so Hugo and the others immediately stared nervously at the direction pointed by Veneto. Sure enough, just a few dozen seconds later they heard footsteps coming from the empty corridor, and then Harry's voice, although it was muffled, was still clearly audible after being amplified by the empty corridor late at night.

"Snape has successfully passed Lu Wei. I won't blame you if you want to back down now." At this moment, footsteps stopped in front of the pillar at the entrance to the corridor, and then Harry took off the invisibility cloak. . "It's not just you, Ron. Even Hermione and the others are the same. This is not your responsibility."

"Are you only allowed to be a hero here?" Veneto said while leaning out half of his body from the empty classroom and waving. "The fact that we are here at this time means that we have made a choice, so don't say those stupid things."

"Thank you, thank you so much. I'm glad to see you here." After Harry and Ron entered the empty classroom, Harry glanced at Hugo and the others' faces one by one and showed a smile at the same time. During the previous communication between the two parties, Harry fully understood the strength of Hugo and the others, so he naturally relaxed a lot after seeing them again at this time.

Several people looked at each other and were about to go through the door when Hermione stopped everyone, and then briefly told Hugo's worries before and her and Hugo's plan to watch outside.

"Sure enough, you Ravenclaw students think more carefully than we do." After listening to Hermione's words, Harry nodded with deep understanding. "It's definitely not easy to break through the defenses set up by the professors in the school, so it's very possible for the thieves to follow us. But is it too dangerous for the two of you to face Snape?"

"At least we guarantee that we can sound the alarm in time." Hugo smiled and said, "There are so many professors and classmates in the castle, so as long as we sound the alarm, the thief will definitely escape."

After a few simple words, everyone immediately divided into two groups. Harry, Ron and Veneto entered the room wearing invisibility cloaks, while Hugo and Hermione continued to stay in the room. Li is responsible for looking after everyone's escape, and is ready to notify the professors at any time if the situation goes wrong.

After saying goodbye to each other, Veneto and Harry opened the door together. As the door creaked, a low barking sound immediately sounded in their ears. Although the big dog couldn't see them, all three of its noses were twitching and sniffing crazily towards them.

"It seems that someone has been here before we came." Veneto said, because she saw a harp at the feet of the three-headed dog, but the harp that was playing just now has stopped and made the room In silence. So after she finished saying that, she immediately took out a harmonica from her arms and started playing it.

As the first note was played, the big dog's eyes began to droop. After just playing a short piece of music, the big dog slowly stopped barking, then his knees weakened and he fell to the ground and fell asleep.

Seeing this scene, Veneto walked forward with Harry and the others while playing the harmonica. Just when they came to the feet of the three-headed dog, they could even feel the hot, smelly breath of the big dog.

"This seems to be a very deep shaft." Ron said after opening the trap door upwards. "It seems to be several stories high, and there are no ladders around. How should we get down now?"

"Let me try first." Harry came out at this time, and then slowly slid down the hole, and finally held on to the edge of the hole with only ten fingers. He looked up at Ron and said: "If something happens to me, don't follow me down. Go directly to the cupboard where the owl lives and send Hedwig to deliver a message to Dumbledore, okay?"

"Wait, this is real." Harry let go of his hand before Ron could say anything. A few seconds later, the sound of soft objects colliding was heard from below, and then Harry's voice came up. "No problem, it's a soft landing. You can jump now."

After hearing what Harry said, Ron was the second one to jump down, and then Veneto put the harmonica into her arms and was the last one to jump down. When she jumped down, the big dog woke up again and opened his mouth. He came to the entrance of the cellar and started barking. Unfortunately, everyone had successfully passed the first level at this time.
