Chapter 22: Responsive house
When Albert woke up, it was pitch black in the dormitory and the sound of rain faintly came from outside the window. The rain last night has not stopped.
Albert sat up from the bed and stretched out his hand to cover a yawn, all to blame for the strange dream last night. When he woke up, he felt very tired.
Besides, he woke up too early, and the three people in the same dormitory were still sleeping.
Albert reached out and touched the head of the bed, picked up the magic wand placed in the corner, and whispered: "Fluorescence flashes."
The front end of the wand exudes a pale light. He put the glowing wand on the mechanical pocket watch and glanced at the time: 5:40.
Sure enough, I woke up too early.
Albert extinguished the light on his wand, lay back on the bed, and the mechanical pocket watch slipped from his hand onto the sheet.
This is a gift Luke bought for himself to celebrate his receipt of an invitation from Hogwarts.
Since he woke up, Albert didn't intend to go back to sleep, leaned forward and sat on the bed again, stretched his waist, pulled off the sheets, got out of the bed and walked to the window. He opened the cork and opened the wooden window to look out of the tower.
A blast of cold wind blows on his face, Albert can not help but shiver, his head suddenly wakes up.
The rain was not heavy, it was still dark outside, and the entire castle was shrouded in a hazy rain curtain.
"A great adventure." Albert patted his cheek and muttered quietly.
Close the window, Albert returned to the bed, took out the robe from the suitcase and put it on, then took the pocket watch and wand by the bed and put it in his pocket. Before he walked out of the dormitory, he stopped again and threw away the clothes he had just changed. Going into the bathroom basket, the house elf will use magic to wash the clothes clean, and then put them back on his bed.
By the way, the students at Hogwarts are actually doing pretty well. There are many things that don’t need the students to worry about them, they just need to learn magic with peace of mind.
The common room was very quiet. Only one female ghost was sitting on the sofa and reading. She heard the footsteps, raised her head and glanced at Albert, and then continued to look down at her book.
Albert didn't bother Ms. Ghost. Although he wanted to talk to each other, he gave up in the end. He hated being disturbed while reading.
Albert didn't stay in the lounge, and planned to wander around the castle before everyone got up, and went to find the legendary house of responsiveness.
Pushing open the door of the lounge, Albert bent over and stepped out of the round door. The fat lady was still wearing a pajamas, and looked sleepily at the leaving student.
She asked: "Where are you going?"
"Walk." Albert looked into the dim corridor, raised his wand and moved on. This time, he didn't plan to take the road that he came last night, but planned to walk elsewhere.
Perhaps, because it is raining outside, the corridor is filled with cold and dampness, much like a ghostly castle in a ghost movie. Ghosts may emerge from the walls at any time, scaring people to death.
In fact, there are indeed ghosts in Hogwarts Castle, and there are still a lot of them. Even if there is a ghost coming out of the wall, it is not a weird thing.
As soon as he turned the corner, Albert saw the stone steps that came last night. This time, he did not go down, but continued on.
Turned a corridor again, Albert found a big vase in front of him, turned his head and looked around, actually let him find the tapestry of the troll wearing a tutu.
"It seems that I have good luck."
Albert speeded up his pace, walked to the tapestry, raised his wand, and looked up at the strange tapestry in front of him with the light from it. It can only be described as being unable to look straight.
A group of giant monsters wearing ballet groups on the tapestry, holding wooden or bone sticks, are posing in various enchanting poses. A ballet teacher was trying to teach a giant to dance, but was beaten by a giant with a bone stick.
While Albert was observing the tapestry, the troll also stopped beating the ballet teacher and turned to stare at him, as if asking, "What are you looking at?"
If you bring a camera, Albert will definitely film this very happy scene.
However, the most important thing now is the responsive house, which is in the white wall opposite this tapestry.
Albert stepped aside, turned around and looked at the white wall, then turned his head, looked at the tapestry, raised his right hand, and made a knocking motion at the troll.
The tooth decayed monster really learned how to lift the bone stick and knock it on the poor ballet teacher.
This scene is so sad and tearful.
Albert laughed happily, walked to the white wall, reached out his hand to touch the white wall, this is a very hard stone wall, and there is no such thing as a responsive house.
The condition for entering the House of Request is to walk through this wall three times and concentrate on what you need.
"Go through?" Albert raised his wand, and the pale light illuminated one end of the white wall. There was a window over there. He turned around and saw a tall vase again.
So, actually I walked three times?
"A place to practice magic, a place to practice magic..." Albert concentrated, UU reading www. uukanshu.com walked to the window at one end of the white wall and turned back, then turned back to the vase at the other end.
He whispered a word, and when he turned around for the third time, there was a change on the wall.
Numerous patterns appeared from the white wall, and a smooth door gradually emerged.
Albert is in a good mood because he knows he has succeeded. He held the copper handle, opened the door and walked in. Inside was a spacious room with torches lit around the wall, a bit like a classroom.
There are many wooden bookshelves on the wall with hundreds of books. Albert suspects that these books were brought from the library. On the other side, there are some dolls for practicing magic.
"It's great," Albert said softly. With these books, he doesn't need to go to the library to find books.
However, when using this place, you still need to be careful not to be spotted. After all, a door suddenly appears on the wall, which can easily attract the attention of others.
Albert did not continue to stay, and turned to leave the responsive room. He was going to think about how to use this place concealedly.
If he doesn't want people to know, he needs to make sure he didn't meet anyone when he came in, and he didn't meet anyone else when he went out, so that he could keep the secret here.
He needs the phantom spell and a map of vitality.
The Phantom Body Curse should be found in the pile of books just now, but it’s not easy to get a map, in Filch’s place.
Make one yourself?
He doesn't have this ability now.
Forget it, take your time! Anyway, I have to stay here for seven years.
After Albert turned and left, the door of the responsive house slowly disappeared again and turned into an ordinary white wall again. Few in the school knew that there was a magical room here.
