Chapter 150 Found You
"Hogwarts' Strongest Badger ()" Find the latest chapter!
In the middle of the night, in the empty corridor, there were several figures walking slowly with a magic lamp in one hand and a wand in the other.
Although they all wore Gryffindor Academy robes, their appearances were obviously much more vicissitudes than ordinary students.
Especially the lead one, whose bushy beard and dark circles under his eyes make him look like a frail middle-aged addict.
Perhaps due to being too sleepy, the person at the back of the line suddenly yawned.
Then, as if contagious, the other members of the team fought one by one.
The 'middle-aged addict' who was at the forefront was no exception.
"Haha~ ah?"
However, he just stopped halfway through the fight, turning his head suspiciously and looking around.
Just now, he seemed to see a vague shadow passing in front of him.
It's a pity that he searched for a long time but still couldn't find anything. In the end, he could only blame it on the hallucinations of his long-term poor sleep, and continued to walk forward with a face of bitterness and hatred.
I was interrupted in the middle of my yawn, which was uncomfortable.
And after they disappeared into the far corner, Link's vague figure finally appeared in the darkness.
"Hoo! It's dangerous!"
Link took a long breath and muttered to himself, then turned into a vague phantom and rushed towards the destination of his trip - the Owl Tower.
Since all the owls at night have gone out to deliver letters, the owl tower is also empty at the moment.
Link was not surprised by this, but he dug out the owl usage record covered by a wooden board with ease, and began to copy it with a sketch quill.
This is very necessary work, because according to Draco's description, the place where he fainted was in the vicinity.
This means that it is very likely that he sent the diary by owl mail.
Although the people who came to send the letters registered anonymously, if the number was small, Link was still confident that he could find out their destinations one by one.
The reason why Link is so skilled is because this is actually his seventh time here.
No way, the group he met just now were the inspectors that Professor Snape had mentioned, and Professor McGonagall gave them a name - pickets.
The work of these pickets is very hard. Usually, they not only need to rush into the students' dormitories from time to time to search, but also need to be responsible for night patrols and carpet search for contraband.
The members of the picket team are all composed of 7th grade students who have passed the preliminary screening of the Auror Office.
Although most of these people will be eliminated in the next training test, thus missing the identity of the Auror, the most elite force in the Ministry of Magic of the country.
But being able to pass the first test has proved that they are the best people at Hogwarts.
And because Professor McGonagall promised that the performance of this picket activity would be directly counted as a normal score in their next 'Auror exam', so these picket team members still have very heavy academic requirements even on weekdays. Done, but still putting in twelve points of vigilance to get the job done.
Take the group of players that Link encountered earlier.
They pass by on average every 10 minutes and conduct a comprehensive tour of the owl tower.
This caused Link's work efficiency to drop to an outrageous level.
However, no matter how inefficient it is, there will be a time to complete it, and Link estimates that he will be able to complete a comprehensive analysis of the record tonight.
However, the reality is cruel.
When Link finally finished copying all the information, he was disappointed to find that he still had no way of finding out who Draco had sent the diary to.
Because the day Draco fainted was the day before Valentine's Day.
On this night, more than a hundred mails were sent out through this owl tower.
With such a large number, he can't investigate anything in a short period of time.
As for telling Dumbledore to let him investigate.
Link would never do it unless he had to, and the reason was very simple, that is, Link had already received news from Snape that the Aurors would enter Hogwarts ahead of schedule thanks to Dumbledore's efforts. .
This news made Link give up all hope for Dumbledore.
Because he obviously just wants to get rid of Tom Riddle, and he doesn't care about Arkham the Basilisk or something.
Well, it's very Dumbledore.
Gritting his teeth, Link finally shoved the copied mailing record into his arms.
Immediately afterwards, he stepped on his feet hard, and the whole person once again turned into a barely visible afterimage and floated back to the corner where he had been.
This is a dead spot where the pickets patrol. According to past experience, he only needs to wait here quietly for the pickets to return to check the Owl Tower before leaving safely.
However, a full twenty minutes passed, and the pickets still did not appear.
‘Those guys, weren’t they attacked by the heirs? ’
Such an idea instinctively appeared in Link's mind, which made him uneasy.
He hesitated for a moment, and finally rushed out of the corner where he had been hiding.
Although these guys made him have to divide it into several times to complete the collection of the mailing information of the owl tower, they are still alive after all.
Most importantly, if they do get attacked by that heir.
Then Link is very likely to directly catch the opponent's current in the past!
In the darkness, Link's figure moved like a ghost in the winding corridor.
With the perception ability provided by the night vision potion and the super sense spell, there are milky white light strips floating in front of him at this moment.
These are all traces of magic left behind by a portable magic lamp.
With them, Link doesn't need to tell the direction the pickets are moving at all, just follow these light strips.
At the same time, the super hearing provided by the Super Sense Charm also made him hear a very strange sound.
It was a series of subtle and eerie sounds, which at first sounded a bit like wind, but if you checked it carefully, you would feel like something was being rubbed by sandpaper.
And as Link continued to move forward, the sound became louder and louder, and finally became a sound that Link was all too familiar with - the rustling sound of the scales of the basilisk Arkham crawling!
"Got you!"
The corners of Link's mouth rose involuntarily, and then the speed under his feet skyrocketed again, and the whole person rushed out like a bullet from the chamber.
