Chapter 159 The Three-Headed Dog and the Trap Door

People who are heartless sleep well, which means that people who have something on their mind usually don't sleep well. This is the case with Ada. She had become the so-called starting Seeker inexplicably before, and this matter had been weighing on her heart, making it difficult for her to eat or sleep well.

It’s not that Ada has poor mental endurance, or that she is afraid of being embarrassed. If she is told to take an exam the next day, or to have a fight with someone, then Ada will not only not be afraid, but will be very excited, because this is something she is good at. , and has nothing to do with anyone else.

Quidditch is different. It is a team sport, and the seeker is an extremely important position, which is related to the winning or losing of a game. Ada, who has a lot of keyboard warrior points, has never actually played a game. She has no idea, so she naturally feels uneasy.

If she really lost the game because of herself, Ada could selfishly not care what the rest of the team thought, but she couldn't care less about Professor McGonagall's feelings. Ada didn't want to see Professor McGonagall disappointed with her.

Now, Ada doesn't have to take part in the Quidditch match. As long as Harry stays healthy, she doesn't have to play. He was a substitute seeker, rather than a make-up person, a water fountain keeper, and a bodyguard sitting on the bench.

There was still no scene familiar to the students in Friday's Potions class, and Snape didn't even ask Ada a question this time. The two of them were very harmonious, and the harmony was a little abnormal, as if the previous two years were all imagined by the students.

According to unknown rumors, the reason why Snape doesn't wash his hair is because the shampoo on the market is related to the Potter family, but no one dares to verify it. Who is not afraid of being slapped with a greasy face by Snape? !

In the evening, Oliver Wood took Harry to the stadium, gave him some simple adaptive training, popularized some Quidditch knowledge, and helped him advise on what broomstick to buy.

Harry and Ada are different. If Ada buys a broomstick, it will kill her, but Harry can just consider the most expensive broomsticks. Otherwise, he only has three at home.

The Potter family has been passed down for who knows how many years, and it is said that it can be traced back to Hadwin Potter in the 12th century. In the 20th century, Harry's great-grandfather Henry Potter was still a member of the Wizengamot and fought hard to protect the International Statute of Secrecy.

Harry's grandfather, Fleamund Potter, invented the Smooth Hair Detergent (it seems he discovered something). Although the company no longer belongs to the Potter family, this best-selling product still brought them huge wealth. .

He also lost his father when he was young, but Harry was a very rich generation. There was a large sum of gold in Gringotts waiting for him to inherit, while Ada was just a slum girl, living in a world, completely incomparable.

Once curfew passed, the Gryffindor common room fell silent except for the crackling fire in the fireplace. The little lions all went to bed, but Ada and the twins quietly slipped out of the lounge. They were going to the fourth floor tonight to find out.

Although Gryffindor had a lot of points deducted because of Ada, it was still because of her that Gryffindor also had a lot of points deducted. With Ada's Disillusionment Curse, the number of times the twins were caught while wandering the castle at night was drastically reduced. This allowed the two brothers to deduct a lot of points and avoid many times of confinement.

Combining the two, Ada's contribution to Gryffindor's competition for the House Cup is almost negligible, unless she changes her ways and becomes a completely good baby.

Fred walked in the front, Ada in the middle, and finally George. The three-person night tour formation has been maintained for two years and has no intention of changing this year. Ada actually wanted to go ahead, but because of Fred's face, she never mentioned this idea.

Men's self-esteem needs to be taken care of, and the same goes for boys.

After walking up stairs and corridors, the three students who had not slept all night arrived at the end of the fourth floor.

It had only been two weeks since school started, and Dumbledore's words were still ringing in his ears, but Ada and the twins appeared here, wanting to see what kind of accident could cause a painful death.

Ada stepped forward and faced the locked door and muttered silently: "Open the Alaho hole!"

The door lock made a "click" sound, and the door opened. It was said that it was undefended. It is true that no one can guard against this door lock. Ada opened the door and three people filed in. In front of them was the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor, and a dog.

The dog was huge, so big that it filled all the space from ceiling to floor. It also had three heads, three pairs of vicious eyes that rolled around, three noses that were twitching and trembling in their direction, and three mouths drooling like sticky ropes from the yellow The dog's teeth hung down.

The three-headed dog stood there motionless, the Disappearance Spell had no effect on it at all. It looked curiously at the three little ones in front of it. The three-headed dog is very strange. Why do some little ones always come here in the past two days? Are they giving it extra meals?

The giant dog lowered its body and slowly approached the three of them. The three of them happened to be one at a time. The distribution was very even, and no one would be treated badly. Yesterday's "dessert" was accidentally let go, and it won't let today's one escape again.

The moment Ada saw the three-headed dog, she knew why Dumbledore dared to break the lock like that. In Greek mythology, the three-headed dog guards the entrance to the underworld. In the magical world, it is also a ferocious existence. Not everyone can deal with the three-headed dog.

Ada waved her wand and drew a circle in front of the three people. Flames spurted out from the tip of her wand to form a huge wall of fire, blocking the way between them and the three-headed dog.

The three-headed dog feels that the current "desserts" are too ignorant. The one he served last night ran away, and today's one actually dared to set fire! The angry three-headed dog began to bark. Its roar was deafening, and the fishy smell in its mouth was unbearable.

The trio need to leave now. Sooner or later, this roar will attract the attention of Filch or the professor, and by then it will be too late to run away. Once caught, it will definitely be a combination of confinement and points deduction. It is really a loss to receive a combination of punches without seeing anything.

George turned the doorknob open and left the corridor with Fred first. The flame controlled by Ada also turned into a giant bird and flew towards the three-headed dog. One of the three-headed dogs opened its big mouth and swallowed the flying firebird in one bite. However, when it paid attention to the three little ones, Ada and the twins had already left the corridor.

The angry roar of the three-headed dog came from the corridor behind them again, and the door was locked again. Then the three of them quickly left here and walked towards Gryffindor's tower.

As soon as they left, Filch and Mrs. Lorris arrived behind them. Filch, who had jumped into the air, observed carefully, hoping to find evidence that someone had been here.

After waking up the fat lady who was having a sweet dream, Ada and the twins returned to the common room. The three people who had lifted the disillusionment spell sat on the armchairs next to the fireplace and discussed in low voices.

"Your eyes shouldn't be used for breathing, have you seen it?" Fred asked. Although he was blocked by the three-headed dog, he still gained a lot.

"Of course, that dog is guarding a trap door." Ada recalled the scene in the corridor. There was a trap door hidden under the feet of the three-headed dog. Such a big trap door can be used as long as you are not blind. See. Dumbledore must have put such a dangerous three-headed dog here to protect this trap door.

"There must be some great treasure hidden under the trap door. Maybe there are other guards like three-headed dogs below." George said, "Wait a minute, the three-headed dogs..."

Ada and the twins said in unison: "Hagrid!" The three of them thought of it together. Hagrid once bought a three-headed dog from a Greek guy and raised it in the Forbidden Forest. Hagrid He even showed off to a trio.

The twins began to complain to Hagrid, obviously dissatisfied with Hagrid for keeping such a dangerous pet brother. Of course, the main reason was that the dog blocked their way.

Sitting in the armchair, Ada began to recall what happened during this period. One person was short-term, and two people were wrong, so she asked: "Do you remember the robbery of Gringotts?"

Thanks to book friend Luo Yue Ruzheng for the reward.
