Hogwarts: Nagini captured at the start

Chapter 27 The Room of Requirement

As Robin recalled the plot outline of the original work, his gaze remained fixed on Helena's chest.

Helena was furious, her face almost glowing with rage. She slightly pulled down her long dress, revealing a dark wound on her snow-white chest. "Look, have you seen enough? You can put away your damn curiosity now!"

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend you. I was just lost in thought!"

"There's no need to explain. This has happened more than once or twice; I'm used to it!"

Helena pulled up her shoulder strap, turned around and floated up to the fifth floor, but Robin called out to her again.

"Helena, do you really not know where the crown is?"

"If you want a higher score, try a different approach. I don't know where the crown is."

"If I find it, then...would it be mine?"

Rowena is dead, Helena is a ghost, and the Horcrux is the tiara. She was thrown into the storage room of the House of Requirement (a room that collects useless trash) by the village bully.

Helena turned around and stared blankly at Robin!

She remembered the handsome, charismatic Slytherin student who had tricked her into revealing the whereabouts of the crown with sweet words. She had once considered killing him on the night he returned to school and taking back the crown.

But she's a ghost, so who can she possibly hurt?

However, Helena found the black-haired boy in front of her arrogant and ridiculous. He hadn't asked him a single question about the crown, yet he boasted that he could find it.

So she sneered dismissively, "Fine, provided you're intelligent enough to find it!"

After saying that, Helena left with a mocking look in her eyes.

Well, to be fair, the Blood Man Barrow is a tyrant, short-tempered, and possessed by a superhuman, and is also an intermittent psychopath. But Helena is no better; she steals things and refuses to return them, and even after she dies and becomes a ghost, she refuses to tell the White Wizards where the crown is.

One major reason Tom Riddle was able to seduce her was that, like the village bully, she had a desire to seize wealth and possessions that she had no right to.

However, Helena's arrogance did Robin a big favor!

Luo Bin looked around and, after confirming that no one was looking in his direction, started walking upstairs.

Inside Hogwarts Castle, there is a mysterious room that appears and disappears at will, and it also possesses a certain degree of perception.

It will appear at a certain time when a teacher or student needs it.

The room's layout will also be just right, meeting the needs of teachers or students.

This is the House of Requirement!

The original book mentions that it is located on the eighth floor of Hogwarts Castle, opposite the tapestry where the troll beats Barnabas, and the way to open it is extremely simple.

First, focus your mind and think about what you need. Second, walk past the wall opposite the tapestry three times. Then, you will see a door appear in the stone wall. Open that door to enter the House of Requirement.

Now, Robin is standing in front of that stone wall.

He closed his eyes, focused his mind, and considered his need to enter the mysterious storage room. Then, he walked past the wall opposite the tapestry three times. When he opened his eyes again, he was surprised to find an ancient and solemn door on the stone wall.

He took a deep breath, pushed open the door, and went inside!

Cough cough! Cough cough!

As soon as Luo Bin stepped into the storage room, he was choked by the dust that hit him and coughed incessantly.

Dirty, messy, and disorganized were his first impressions of the mysterious storage room.

The towering garbage heaps rival London's skyscrapers.

The passageways between the garbage dumps are only wide enough for one person to squeeze through sideways.

Finding the Ravenclaw tiara in a junkyard of dozens of buildings is as difficult as retrieving a needle from the Pacific Ocean.

However, in order to upgrade and increase cultivation value, we have no choice but to do it!

Luo Bin rolled up his sleeves, grabbed the hem of his witch's robe, and stepped into the garbage heap. Fortunately, it was just dirty, messy, and filthy, without a pungent stench. Otherwise, he would have had to figure out how to get a gas mask.

He passed a giant stone statue missing half its head, then a pile of dilapidated tables and chairs, and then a leather tablecloth full of wormholes. Then, he stopped and turned to examine the stone door of the storage room.

Is it just my imagination?

The door seemed to shake slightly!

The next second, Luo Bin knew it wasn't an illusion, because a beam of light shone through the crack in the stone door.

Oh no, someone's come in!

He quickly crawled into the garbage heap and hid behind a leather tablecloth.

creak!creak!

The stone gate has been opened!

Creak! Bang!

The stone gate has been closed!

"Dirty stuff, filthy stuff everywhere! I'm going to suggest to Headmaster Albus Dumbledore that we implement corporal punishment, arrest Fred and George, chain their legs, and hang them upside down from the ceiling of the Great Hall on the first floor all night. That'll surely subdue the entire school!"

His voice was hoarse and deep, and he would choke on his phlegm every few words. He had a terrible temper, and every few steps he would kick up the trash next to him, making a loud clattering sound.

Robin: With a voice like an old machine stuck in a rut, foul-mouthed, and swearing man, he sees the Weasley twins as his enemies and even brings up the headmaster, so he's definitely Argus Filch, the janitor of Hogwarts!

Tap tap! Tap tap!

The footsteps grew closer, and Robin held his breath, praying that Filch would finish throwing things away and leave quickly.

boom! boom! boom!

The discarded tables and chairs were knocked around and shook violently, causing even the large table mat next to them to sway!

"I cleaned this entire castle all by myself. My contribution far surpasses that of those arrogant wizards. Heh, one day I'll learn to chant spells quickly, and I'll raise my wand and teach those who mocked me a lesson!"

Boom!

It sounded like a broom and dustpan hitting a wooden board!

"Alright, it's time to go to the other room and get the new cleaning supplies. Loris will get angry if we keep her waiting!"

Tap tap! Tap tap!

The heavy footsteps gradually approached the stone gate. Finally, they were about to leave. Luo Bin breathed a sigh of relief.

But it was this exhalation that made Filch realize that something was amiss in the storeroom today.

Tap tap! Tap tap!

He turned back to the dilapidated table and chairs, took a few steps forward, and stared intently at the leather tablecloth with his bulging eyes.

"Who, who's hiding inside?"

He coughed up some phlegm a few times and continued, "Come out, I see you. Come out now and come with me to see the principal."

Inside the leather placemat was a layer of discarded satin tablecloth. The phrase "I see you" was purely a bluff.

However, even knowing that Filch was bluffing, Robin was still so nervous that his heart was pounding.

His consciousness entered his sea of ​​consciousness, anxiously searching through the garden goblin and Nagini's innate skills.

Getting caught by Filch is nothing compared to losing points in the college and having to write a reflection report. The worst thing would be having two stone statues placed on the eighth floor to prevent students from coming in.

Grant Rupert's hoe-digging skills?

No, the floor is marble, only 0.2 meters in diameter and 0.1 meters deep, just enough to hide an apple.

Grant Rupert's precision throwing skills?

No, even the slightest sound would indicate that there is a second person in the storage room.

If Filch blocks the stone door before we've even learned how to walk through walls, won't we be trapped inside forever?

Nagini's airwave attack?

No, just like with precise throwing, the storage room shouldn't have any 'unpleasant smells'.
