Hogwarts: Voldemort, don't stop me from studying

But they were caught by Hagrid, who was furious and punished them by making them clean the pigsty for half a month.

"Cleaning up pig manure, cleaning the pig pens, and bathing the piglets..."

Fred laughed and said, "This is what we've been doing for the past half month."

"Percy was furious. He was upset that we lost the Weasleys."

George said as he hosed the floor and gave the piglet next to him a bath.

Fred asked, "Wade, what's the matter with you coming to see us?"

"Remember last semester when you told me about the secret passage out of Hogwarts?" Wade asked.

"Of course!" said Fred. "Don't tell me you haven't used it until recently."

"Well, I left school a few days ago, and the secret passage is longer than I thought."

"Hogsmeade is fun, isn't it?" Fred leaned his chin on the wooden handle of the shovel with both hands and blinked his eyes. "You didn't get caught by Froome?"

"Frum?"

"The owner of Honeydukes," George explained.

"Oh, that's not the case." Wade said, "There's just one thing that has always been strange to me..."

He looked at the two of them and said, "You said you saw me coming out of the corridor where the mirror is, and then we met in front of the portrait of Paracelsus..."

"Ah? Is that so?" Fred couldn't remember clearly. He scratched his head and said, "Maybe."

"But I checked when I came out of the mirror corridor and there were no other students around."

"I was later told that you were supposed to have just come out of the Gryffindor Common Room," said Wade.

The person who told him was, of course, Zoe.

Not much in this castle could be hidden from the house-elves and the portraits that were everywhere.

"Hmm..." George tilted his head and asked, "So?"

"You should have a magic item in your hand that can show everyone's whereabouts, right? It's said to be a piece of parchment?"

Vader said sincerely, "Can I borrow it to study the alchemy on it? I promise I won't damage it! The rent is one Galleon a day, is that ok?"

"One Galleon? That's not cheap!" Fred said, then shook his head: "But no."

Vader was stunned for a moment, then raised the price: "So... two Galleons?"

"It's not about money." Fred said solemnly: "The Marauder's Map is a precious gift left by our predecessors to those who come after us..."

George nodded and sighed, "We owe them so much... How can we use it to exchange for money?"

"You can study the Marauder's Map for free." Fred nodded solemnly and said, "But there are conditions..."

"Don't let anyone see you, especially the professor and Filch..."

"Also... we must also learn from the spirit of our predecessors and help the new generation of people who break the law..."

The twins laughed.

Then Fred pulled out a square piece of parchment that looked old and blank.

"We stole this from Filch's office. He locked it in a drawer with a note saying [Confiscated Supplies, Extremely Dangerous]."

George said: "He taught us more than all the teachers in the school."

"Remember the spell." Fred pulled out his wand, touched the parchment lightly and said, "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good!"

Thin ink lines spread out quickly like a spider web, and several lines of green text began to emerge -

【Magical Prank Maker's Aid Supplier】

[Mr. Moony, Mr. Wormtail, Mr. Padfoot, and Mr. Prongs]

【Proudly Presented】

【Marauder's Map】

In a blink of an eye, a map of the entire Hogwarts was formed on the parchment, even down to every corridor and every room.

Black dots as small as sesame seeds moved on the map, with very small letters next to them forming names.

The letters are much smaller than they appear in the movie.

Places with a lot of people like auditoriums, lounges, and classrooms are more like a group of ants huddled together, and it is impossible to see clearly.

However, the Weasley twins didn't care about the students who gathered together. They were probably only concerned about where the professors and Filch were patrolling during the night walk.

"When you're done with it, just tap it and say 'Prank over,' and it turns back to blank parchment," said George.

Wade looked at the twins. The smiles on their faces were a little silly, as if they had no idea how precious the thing they had taken out was.

Vader folded up the parchment and smiled, "Then can I invite you to study together? I remember that you two are also studying alchemy?"

Speaking of this, the Weasley twins perked up: "Of course! But the magic on the Marauder's Map is very complicated!"

"We've been working on some prank candies lately, but the damage is a little too great..."

Before George could finish his words, Hagrid's voice came: "Hey, I hope you have finished cleaning the pigsty while you were chatting!"

The twins stuck out their tongues and quickly began to rinse the pig pen.

"Hey, Wade. Don't be like them and treat your life as a game."

Hagrid came over with a large bucket of feed, and with a flick of his finger he pushed the piglet next to the food bowl over to him, and then poured the feed into the bowl.

Vader asked him, "Is the dragon okay in the Forbidden Forest?"

"It doesn't matter. The creatures in the forbidden forest can't hurt Norbeta."

Hagrid said lovingly, "Well, it's a good thing Dumbledore allowed her to stay... For Norberta, the most dangerous thing in the world is people... Her original habitat is also full of people..."

As he spoke, he picked up a few grown piglets, took a closer look at them, and then put them into the pigpen next to him.

"Then... she won't hurt the animals in the Forbidden Forest?" Vader asked.

"Dumbledore made a deal with the Centaurs," said Hagrid. "Nobetta lives far away, too. She promised not to hunt around the school, and not to harm intelligent species. She's a really good kid, isn't she?"

Vader looked at some burns on Hagrid's arms and couldn't help but nod.

Hagrid invited him: "How about coming to my cabin for a cup of tea? I've made some new rock cakes."

"No thanks." Wade declined: "I still have homework to do."

After saying goodbye to Hagrid and the Weasley twins, Wade returned to the Room of Requirement. The first thing he did was to spread out the Marauder's Map and look towards the Gryffindor Common Room.

If not unexpected, there should be an extra name there——

Peter "Wormtail" Petillo.

One of the hijackers, a good friend of James Potter and Lupin, and the real betrayer back then.

Chapter 139 Battle Royale Game

Wade spread out the map and searched carefully.

At this time, most students are eating in the auditorium and not many people stay in the dormitory.

Wade found the Gryffindor common room and carefully distinguished the few black dots there.

Arya Spinnet...Geoffrey Hooper...Cormac McLaggen...Dean Thomas...Peter Pettigrew...

found it.

Vader looked at the tiny black dot.

Maybe he was sleeping, for the little black dot representing Peter Petillo was motionless. Dean Thomas, on the other hand, was walking around, and soon left the dormitory.

Then Peter's black dot began to move. It ran to one place with a clear purpose, and then began to stay still again.

Wade guessed that maybe it was stealing the students' snacks, after all, Ron couldn't give a mouse too much food;

Maybe it was reading the newspaper, trying to see if the Death Eaters had any hope of making a comeback.

Vader left the map on the table and turned to look at the shelf on the wall.

This once empty wooden shelf is now filled with potions, with glass bottles of all sizes neatly arranged with rectangular labels on them.

There were colorful potions in glass bottles, some emitting a faint mist, while others emitted an ominous black light.

Vader's eyes scanned the labels one by one.

Compound decoction, shrinking potion, scabies potion, swelling potion, life and death potion, white mulberry, blood tonic, intoxicating potion, age-increasing potion...

In addition, there are poisonous ginseng, aconite, rutabaga, powder of poisonous horned beast, feathers of poison ivy, lead powder, arsenic ore...

Most of the toxic substances are raw materials.

After all, their textbooks would not teach students to brew poison. Even if they used Aconitum or Mandrake, it was for their medicinal value.

However, most poisons do not require much processing, and just a small amount of powder can be lethal.

Vader checked it out and pondered for a moment.

There is no truth serum.

It's not that he didn't want it, but as a banned drug, it couldn't be bought through regular channels. Wade couldn't possibly ask Ferdinand to go to a place like Knockturn Alley to buy the potion for him.

In the library, the formula for Veritaserum may only be found in the restricted section.

……

"Powerful Potion?"

Madam Pince carefully examined the note and Lockhart's flamboyant signature on it and asked, "Mr. Grey, this is a very dangerous book."

"Yes, I know." Wade said, "I will carefully learn the useful parts of it."

"Well," Madam Pince muttered, "Professor Lockhart is too arbitrary. He gives students approval for everything..."

She strode into the restricted books area, and soon took out a thick book that seemed to be moldy and handed it to Wade.

Wade took the book but did not leave immediately. Instead, he asked, "Did Professor Lockhart ban any other books for other students?"

"A junior Slytherin student actually borrowed the most poisonous magic!" Madam Pince said dissatisfiedly, "He really has no sense of propriety at all!"
