Chapter 240 Harry's Main Storyline: Escape From Hogwarts Castle!

Weekend.

The snow covered the entire Hogwarts Castle in white.

The Forbidden Forest and the Black Lake were also completely covered with ice and snow.

It was time to go to Hogsmeade again.

After a long search without results, the Aurors and Hogwarts professors thought that Sirius Black might have escaped.

Therefore, the activity to go to Hogsmeade was restarted.

A large group of young wizards who had been holding back for a long time rushed to Hogsmeade like wild dogs.

They mixed in regardless of the heavy snow above their heads.

"Hurry up, the last notice to go to Hogsmeade, hurry up!"

Filch's hoarse voice was mixed with the laughter of the young wizards.

They ran towards Hogsmeade with great enthusiasm.

Harry was the only one left, standing alone on the clock tower, watching his classmates and roommates leave one after another.

He couldn't bear it anymore, so he went back to the dormitory, grabbed his invisibility cloak and rushed out.

Hogwarts was already covered with a thick layer of snow.

Harry didn't notice at all, and he left a deep footprint on the snow.

"Hey, look who this is!"

George and Fred, who were making a snowman, saw this strange scene at a glance.

After thinking for a while, they quietly followed Harry, aimed at the angle, and carried him one by one!

"Let me go!"

Harry struggled frantically inside the invisibility cloak.

His invisibility cloak was not a secret. Thanks to Ron, his close friends had basically heard him brag about it.

The Weasley twins were no exception.

"Smart move, Harry!"

"But not smart enough!"

"We have a better way to take you to Hogsmeade!"

George and Fred sang the same tune.

They carried Harry into the castle.

"I don't have time to joke now, I'm going to Hogsmeade!"

"We know! Don't worry!"

"Yes, we'll take you to the secret passage, but calm down first."

"Let me go first! Don't make a fuss! Please, buddy!"

Harry kept struggling, but he was younger than the Weasley twins, and there were still two of them, so he had no ability to resist.

He was obediently driven to a secret corridor by the two.

According to the original book, the Weasley twins would give the Marauder's Map to Harry, and Harry would take the map to Hogsmeade Village.

But now, the Marauder's Map had already been given to Argus by them.

The two took Harry through a long and narrow secret passage and came to the bottom of Honeydukes Candy Store.

Opened a floor tile and got out.

"Wow! This is really..."

Harry seemed extremely excited when he came to Hogsmeade Village.

He pulled the Weasley twins and planned to go out.

"Hey, man, we're here to take you here."

"We have something else to do today. Next time, we'll take you to see our research and development base!"

"Okay!"

Harry was in high spirits at the moment, so he didn't have time to care about the Weasley twins.

After waving goodbye, he ran out of the store without stopping.

He was wearing an invisibility cloak, so he didn't have to worry about being discovered.

He took any candy he liked and stuffed it into his mouth.

Harry was originally planning to keep some gold galleons, but after finding out that he didn't bring his wallet, he didn't care anymore.

He strolled all the way to a street.

He saw Ron pointing to a few Gryffindors and boasting.

"What the most terrifying haunted house in the UK! I've been there a long time ago!"

"There are female ghosts, ghosts, and many dark creatures in it!"

"Only brave Gryffindors won't be scared by them!"

"What's so scary about female ghosts and ghosts! I heard from my seniors who graduated that this place seemed to be haunted before!" A little wizard said it as if it was a matter of fact.

"Every night, there are screams and wolf howls here!"

"It's so scary that people can't sleep at night!"

"How about... I go there to take a look?" One of them said eagerly.

His proposal was quickly recognized by the people around him, but there was still one person who had concerns.

"We can't deal with female ghosts and dark creatures, and it's so big, what if we get lost?"

"Hasn't Ron been there? With him leading the way, how could we get lost!"

In one sentence, Ron was put on the stake.

With his courage, how could he have been to the Screaming Shack!

He was just looking for an excuse to brag!

But... if he refused now, wouldn't it be equivalent to admitting that he was bragging just now!

Thinking of the contemptuous eyes of the people around him, it was more painful than killing him!

But if they followed them, if they really encountered danger, they wouldn't even have the chance to ask for help!

I just want to brag, don't want to risk my life for this brag!

Seeing that Ron didn't speak, the others also noticed something was wrong.

"Ron, are you going or not? Didn't you say you've been there before?"

"Yeah, that's right, you can lead the way for us!"

"I... I went there with my family, there are many dangerous dark creatures there, there are only a few of us, we might be in danger..."

Ron stuttered for a long time, and could only utter this sentence.

"What kind of danger can there be? Aurors and professors have already searched this place."

"If there is any danger, it must have been cleared!"

A young wizard said for sure.

"Not necessarily? No one usually goes to the Shrieking Shack, it's hard to say whether anyone has cleaned it up!"

"By the way, do you think Sirius is hiding in the Shrieking Shack? He is a dark wizard who escaped from Azkaban, so he must not be afraid of the dark creatures inside!"

"Just go in and take a look! This place is so close to Hogwarts, as long as we hold on for a while, the professor will be here."

"That's right, we just learned the Patronus Charm, and we can take this opportunity to practice it!"

The group of little wizards became more and more excited, and Ron became more and more chilled.

You really don't know how scary dark wizards are!

What if he really hides in the Shrieking Shack, will we still be alive?

Do you still want to hold on for a while in Sirius's hands?

Do you know how many lives he has in his hands!

Killing us is just like killing chickens!

And practicing the Patronus Charm! Do you really think that dark creatures will stand there stupidly for you to beat?

Before you finish reciting the spell, you have been torn into countless pieces!

"Hurry, hurry, it's settled!"

"Get ready, go!"

A group of people were about to head towards the Shrieking Shack.

Just then, Harry quietly followed behind their team and saw Ron walking at the back.

He directly covered him with the invisibility cloak.

"You... eh? Harry!"

"Why are you here!"

Ron was surprised and happy. He never expected Harry to appear here.

"I'm too bored alone in Hogwarts, so..."

"Okay, let's not talk about it. Let's go to the Three Broomsticks for a drink."

Seeing his former companions continue to walk away from the Shrieking Shack, Ron pulled off the invisibility cloak.

He pulled Harry towards the Three Broomsticks.

The two chattered all the way to the door and saw a middle-aged woman holding a small hammer and nailing something on the wall.

"That's Mrs. Rosmerta, the owner of the Three Broomsticks."

Ron had just finished the introduction when two figures appeared, instantly shutting him up.

Even Harry behind him couldn't help but be stunned...
