"What's going on tonight?" As soon as Tier and Mgina squeezed into the crowd, they saw several prefects standing in front of the bronze door knocker, all of them whispering something with bad expressions.

Till wasn't very close, and could only vaguely hear the words "It's not good...be careful...be careful...". Although you could tell that something bad had happened, Till still couldn't tell from this. A complete incident was pieced together in a few words.

Mgina was curious and wanted to ask some of the classmates around her, but Tier quickly stopped her and pulled her aside.

Teal saw Professor McGonagall and the cursing Mr. Filch coming.

"Please give way, ladies and gentlemen." Although Professor McGonagall is married to Mr. Elcott and usually lives in Hogsmeade, Professor McGonagall usually has a lot of school affairs to deal with. When it is too late, she still I will temporarily live in the study on the second floor of the castle.

Tonight, Professor McGonagall was busy instructing the prefects of each college to collect course registration forms from second-year students. The elective course schedule for the second half of the year also needs to be rearranged, so Professor McGonagall has no intention of taking a break until now.

Professor McGonagall, who was still wearing a majestic wizard robe, looked serious. He used his wand to push away the students in front of him, and directed everyone to temporarily make way for him and Mr. Filch to pass.

Till saw Professor McGonagall frowning and checking the bronze door knocker several times with magic spells. Finally, he took a step back more solemnly and glanced around at the confused or nervous students with his sharp eyes.

As if he didn't see anyone's expression showing guilt, Professor McGonagall took a deep breath, turned around and touched the bronze door knocker with his wand, seeming to use magic to communicate with it for a while, and then the door knocker shook, and the door was closed. The door to the Ravenclaw common room opened.

Some students who had been standing for a long time and wanted to rush back to the dormitory to rest cheered quietly, but Professor McGonagall had no intention of letting them in. No matter how happy they were, they still stood there, just watching with expectant eyes ready to move. Professor McGonagall.

Everyone respects Professor McGonagall, even some Slytherins.

Because of the sudden problem with the bronze door knocker, it was already curfew time, and the torches on the wall had long been extinguished. Only some students spontaneously illuminated the surroundings with fluorescent flashes. In normal times, this would definitely be violated one by one. School rules.

Students are not allowed to wander the castle corridors at night after curfew.

However, before Professor McGonagall came, he told Mr. Filch about the special nature of tonight. Mr. Filch did not dare to refute Professor McGonagall's meaning, and could only stare at everyone with vicious eyes, wishing that everyone would Arrested and imprisoned.

It has been raining continuously outside the castle in the past few days. Although it is not very heavy, students have brought a lot of wet mud marks into the castle, and Mr. Filch needs to clean them up.

He cleaned up from morning till night, wishing he could ask every student who left muddy footprints to clean up after themselves.

"Dear students, I know that you must have a lot to ask and a lot of random guesses, so I will tell you part of the truth. I hope you will stop here and forget about it after you sleep."

Professor McGonagall has the ability to calm down all the students easily. Her voice is not loud, but everyone can hear: "Someone with malicious intentions wants to break into the Ravenclaw common room for the purpose of stealing. But the knocker did not tell him to successfully enter."

"I hope everyone will close the doors and windows tonight and not give the failed and dangerous people an opportunity to take advantage of."

After listening to Professor McGonagall's words, Mgina grabbed Till's hand with some fear, but Till felt that when Professor McGonagall glanced at everyone, his eyes seemed to stay on her body for half a moment longer.

There was a very short pause. If it weren't for Till or the person whose eyes were caught, I would have missed this moment.

Till's heartbeat accelerated for a few moments, and he pursed his lips and followed the flow of people into the Ravenclaw common room.

When passing Professor McGonagall, Till's drooped right hand was stuffed with a note without leaving any trace.

Till's expression remained unchanged, and even the speed of his steps did not change. It was not until he entered the dormitory that he opened the note in his hand with a pale face.

Professor McGonagall deliberately gave this to Teal without telling everyone else. He definitely didn't want others to know. So Teal didn't react just now. When he opened the note and looked at it, the content above confirmed Teal's uneasiness. .

'The target of the theft is related to the new wolfsbane potion. '

It was a simple sentence, but after reading it, Thiel had a feeling that it was indeed the case.

No wonder Ravenclaw, the only one among the four houses where she was present, had an accident. No wonder there were so many students present, but Professor McGonagall only glanced at her one more time.

Till held the note in his hand, raised his head and scanned his dormitory with a scrutinizing gaze. Under the illumination of candlelight, the familiar dormitory in Till's eyes actually felt strange to him, as if everything had been moved.

Teal swallowed. The wand was quietly held in her hand, and she checked it carefully step by step.

The first thing to check was the notebooks on the table. The original location of each notebook was deeply imprinted in Till's memory. Almost just by looking at it with his eyes, Till could tell that they had been touched.

A small corner that Thiel subconsciously folded before leaving was also flattened out. Thiel didn't think that his notebook still had the ability to move on its own.

If someone touches her notebook, they may touch her other things, or even... this person is in her dormitory!

Till's grip on the wand became tighter and tighter, and the habit of being calm on the spot that he had developed in the duel competition played a huge role at this time.

Till's eyes hardly changed as he looked for the only place in the dormitory where he could hide someone - her closet.

Thiel's wardrobe is large and custom-made, and half of it is reserved for books that Thiel wants to read, as well as used or unused notebooks.

The bottom of the bed in Hogwarts was welded solid, so Till skipped the bed and pointed the wand at his wardrobe.

The cabinet, which is big enough to hide four Teal, is undoubtedly an excellent hiding place.

Till's mind was very clear. She could feel that the palm of her hand holding the wand was sweating, her heartbeat was accelerating, and her feet, which were landing smoothly on the ground, were trying not to make a sound.

She didn't want anyone who might be hiding in the cabinet to notice her movements, but she couldn't guarantee whether there was a gap inside the cabinet to see her approach.

She could only be careful, and no matter how careful she was, at least she couldn't let her back face the closet.

suddenly!

There was a slight but very obvious noise from the window behind Tier!

Till's back suddenly froze, and all the muscles in his body came into action at this moment. With a speed that Till himself found incredible, he quickly turned around and met a pair of familiar eyes over there. The owner of these familiar eyes, after looking at Tier, tilted his head in confusion and uttered a familiar "Oh".

It was Hibby, with a letter in its mouth, squatting by the window and looking at Till. It must have just brought a letter to Till from outside.

Apart from Till, the only people who can manipulate Habby are the Emery couple.
