Hogwarts: What bad intentions could the little badger have?

Is that confinement?

That's hell!

So, they all had a little PTSD about Blake's smile.

Blake stroked his chin and said, "It's nothing serious, I just wanted to ask you a question."

"I promise I won't disturb your studies."

"What's the problem?" Fred asked.

Black asked directly: "That is... do you know some secret passages or secret rooms that even Filch doesn't know about?"

Fred and George both retreated tactically at the same time.

Then they looked at each other.

"Excuse me."

“We are all good students.”

"I don't know about secret rooms or secret passages."

"How can you insult someone's innocence out of thin air?"

Fred and George spoke righteously one by one.

"Oh...if you didn't have the dung in your pocket, I would have almost believed it." Blake said with a smile.

"Ah... I knew I couldn't hide it from him."

"What kind of secret passage are you looking for?"

"never mind……"

Fred and George looked at each other, then Fred pulled out a well-folded piece of old parchment and handed it to Blake.

"This is a map we got in Filch's office some time ago."

"I'll lend it to you temporarily."

"We relied on this map to avoid being caught when we went on night tours in the past."

"The last time you caught me doesn't count..."

"Because this map doesn't include the Forbidden Forest."

"This map is called the Marauder's Map."

"To use it, open it, tap it with your magic wand and say the command."

"The password is: I solemnly swear that I have done nothing bad..."

"We don't have time to explain right now."

"Anyway, you will know its wonderful uses after you use it."

Fred and George left the hall with their bags full of stuff.

Of course, judging from the direction they left, it seemed to be 097 Filch's office...

It seems that the war has already begun...

Blake looked at the parchment Fred handed him.

He didn't expect that the Weasley twins would actually lend him the Marauder's Map.

Still, it's pretty good.

Strictly speaking, this map is like an artifact in Hogwarts.

The most outrageous thing is that the magic above can mark out all the people within Hogwarts!

Even a powerful wizard like Dumbledore was unaware of this.

I can only say that the four guys that Harry's father had were real geniuses.

This thing is pretty good, and it shouldn't be difficult to copy.

Black put the Marauder's Map in his pocket and returned to the Hufflepuff table.

"How is it? Did you find out?" Penelope asked anxiously.

"Of course!" said Blake. "Let's talk in an empty classroom."

Penelope nodded.

It’s a secret base after all!

If other people knew about it, what's the point of calling it a secret base?

……

In an empty classroom.

Blake stood in the middle.

And Hermione, Cassandra, Penelope and Hannah were all there.

Although Hannah doesn't talk much, that's because she's eating.

And how could she be left out of the idea of ​​a secret base?

She also plans to find a good place to try out her new recipes!

After all, the house-elves in the kitchen would never allow wizards to cook for themselves.

Then they will think that they are not doing their job well enough…

Blake placed the Marauder's Map on the middle desk.

He checked it out of habit before spreading out the Marauder's Map.

There's no way around it, what the Weasley twins give you.

Whether it is food or daily use, check it carefully to make sure it is correct!

Then Black took out his wand.

Under the girls' strange gazes, he tapped his wand on the worn parchment.

"I solemnly swear that I have done nothing wrong."

The next second, countless black lines suddenly appeared on the originally blank parchment!

It's the map of Hogwarts!

And the most shocking thing is.

There are many small active dots on the map, and there is a name next to each dot!

"Could this map be able to..." Penelope said in shock.

"That's right... This is why the Weasley twins often go out at night but are rarely caught."

"Of course, they went to the Forbidden Forest last time, but there is no Forbidden Forest on this map..."

Blake said as he began to check the map for secret passages or hidden rooms.

There are many secret passages and secret rooms, which are actually not mentioned in the original book.

And now, most of the secrets of Hogwarts have been exposed to Black and others.

Just as Blake and everyone were looking for a suitable place to use as a secret base.

Suddenly, a snow-white owl flew in from the classroom window!

Then he handed a note to Blake.

Blake took the note suspiciously.

"Come to my office tonight at 8 o'clock..."

And the signature was written with a slightly unfamiliar name...

Bathsheda Barbling.

Chapter 118 Aberforth: This kid looks familiar, hiss... something is wrong! Let me take another look!

Blake calmly put the note in his hand away.

"What does Professor Babel want you to do?" Penelope asked curiously.

"Maybe it's because she needs my help in some way." Blake said truthfully.

"By the way, Senior Penelope, have you taken Professor Babel's ancient runes course?" Blake asked.

Ancient runes are not an elective course until the third year.

Among the people present, only Penelope is now in the fourth grade.

"Of course! Ancient Runes is like the History of Magic. Although it is very boring, it is easy to get marks as long as you memorize it."

Penelope felt that this kind of subject, where one could get grades just by memorizing, was the best.

Things like Potions and Transfiguration are really difficult...

"Then... do you know Professor Babel?"

Penelope ruffled her curly hair. "She is very beautiful and young. I heard that she was a graduate of Ravenclaw!"

Hearing that Professor Babel was a young and beautiful witch, some people felt nervous again...

"But her courses are similar to Professor Binns'..."

"It's just that we have to memorize some ancient runic symbols for the test."

"We don't really like her class. If it weren't for the fact that it's easy to pass the exam, not many people would be willing to choose her class."

Blake rubbed his chin.

The situation seemed to be somewhat different from what he had imagined.

He deliberately used the ancient runic product that he was proud of... the magic talisman.

Fall in front of her.

If she was a conservative who only regarded ancient runes as ancient characters for translating ancient documents.

Then my talisman will not attract her attention.

But now, she sent me a letter and wanted to see me.

That means she is not a conservative person!

Then why listen to Penelope?

When she teaches, does she still use the old-fashioned method?

Blake didn't think any further.

Because if we just meet them once, everything will be clear, right?

"I'll go look for her tonight."

"Then let's continue looking for a place now."

……

Fourth floor.

Blake stood in front of a large mirror on the fourth-floor spiral staircase.

And the other side of the mirror.

It is the corridor on the fourth floor where entry is strictly prohibited!

Blake suddenly felt that this matter was a bit coincidental.

The location they chose.

It's so close to the collection place of the Philosopher's Stone...

Blake didn't look at it any more.

Instead, he turned his head and looked at the big mirror.
