Chapter 434: Get the Crown
"It's not that jealous, is it, Taylor?"
Dumbledore took the firecracker and asked Andrew with a smile.
"It's just an ancient astrological compass, Professor," Andrew spread his hands, "If I take out that cup, I don't know what to give to Professor McGonagall."
"So, you really tied Peeves to the door knocker?"
Principal Eupracia Moore sighed on the wall, "Poor Rankros, he was unfortunately mistaken for ruining the inheritance."
There is no other way but to say that the administrator from who knows how many years ago was unlucky.
The Castle Keeper is a real school administrator, completely different from peripheral personnel like prefects and odd-job students like Andrew. If he ties up Peeves, he is really trying to steal things from the students.
The magic system is not a fully intelligent protection system, and Peeves has been integrated into the castle's system from the day the school was founded. The four giants have not fully explained what they left behind, especially Slytherin's early departure. Let the castle have a bunch of systems that cannot be studied clearly. It can only be said that it is the next bug in the system operation.
The magic system of Hogwarts has been operating for a thousand years. The admission of the Book of Admission, the Pen of Acceptance, the sorting of the Sorting Hat, the scoring system of the gem hourglass, various establishments and acquired protections, this castle can If it runs well, it is really the glory of Merlin. What else do you need for a bicycle?
"But in any case, it is a good thing, but it is not suitable to spread it now. The Triwizard Tournament is basically determined. Now we will be exposed. The other two schools are in great trouble, especially Durmstrang. They There’s a lot of trouble now.”
A witch on the wall who Andrew didn't know shook her head, "So you have to feel a little aggrieved - this is my personal suggestion."
"I couldn't agree more, Delis," Dumbledore nodded. "It's really hard to irritate them. I will talk to Sirius and the others."
"By the way, none of you were hurt, how about Peeves?"
Principal Euprasia looked at Andrew and asked.
"The injury didn't happen. As for Peeves, he looks much weaker than before, and he claimed to carry out prank revenge on one of them."
"That's not a big problem anymore. It's just unlucky. Albus has made the school's management methods much gentler than before."
Principal Eupracia shook her head, obviously relieved - as for revenge for being pranked by Peeves, it couldn't be easier in her opinion.
Hogwarts used whips back then, and Peeves was too gentle.
After Principal Eupracia asked, the other principals also asked - Dumbledore had just returned, and they didn't know the specific results yet.
After responding carefully, Andrew managed to buy a few firecrackers and then left.
——
"It was dark before I even had time to study the firecrackers carefully..."
Andrew sighed and turned on the lamp.
He had just finished sorting the gifts, which was a big project.
The gifts from friends were okay, they came in all kinds, and the gifts from the Ministry of Magic and the school were surprisingly similar - high-end parchment, high-end ink and quills, plus various local versions of advanced transfiguration books and periodicals.
‘I didn’t even have to think about buying a pen before I graduated. The same goes for parchment and ink. They are all of the best quality and even have a signed version by the master...’
There was nothing wrong with the exquisite gift. The quality was so good that he felt he had to be careful when writing on it.
'Be careful, you must not use these inks and parchment to write a legend, and it will explode in minutes...'
After sorting the things and stuffing them into the box, he checked the time with his pocket watch, then leaned against the wall and started reading - it was night time now, and he had to wait for a while before everyone fell asleep before he could take action.
As for the Disguise Charm that is necessary for action, he has not yet mastered it, but he has learned some before and has also studied a lot of subsequent transformation techniques. This will produce similar effects.
But it's not necessary. The temporary adjustment of the spell may not be effective. When he opened the gift, he opened a brand new invisibility cloak and the effect was very good.
‘It makes a lot of sense. ’
After feeling the reminder from his pocket watch, Andrew carefully opened the door to the dormitory, then walked out slowly, casting spells along the way to swallow up the sound to ensure that no noise was emitted.
'Speaking of which, this is the first time I have violated school rules...'
He was a little ashamed and felt a little complete, but this did not affect him at all as he walked out of the lounge step by step and walked down the stairs.
‘Response Room, eighth floor. ’ Andrew thought to himself about the information—he had never been there before.
Because there is no need, he is good at transfiguration, and in the entire British wizarding world, except for Dumbledore, the place that can give him the most help with transfiguration is definitely not the Room of Requirement, but Professor McGonagall's office.
No matter what forbidden books or goblin treasures you are looking for, it is better to study with Professor McGonagall and then simply rely on your talent to defeat them.
He is not a Gryffindor student and likes to check in and have adventures.
'But you can come and check in after today, because my laboratory is occupied...'
Andrew shook his head, and then went all the way to the eighth floor to find the exact location - he didn't remember it clearly, but theoretically the elf knew it. If he couldn't find it, just go to the kitchen and ask. It wouldn't be a big problem.
"I walked through this wall three times and concentrated on what I needed...should it be like this?"
Andrew began to think.
But it's not difficult. Occlumency makes it easy for him to pass on the information he needs.
After conveying three times that he needed a place to hide something, a door appeared in front of Andrew.

He took a few steps in and closed it carefully.
‘I need light, light that lights up the whole room. ’
He conveyed his wishes again - and the room was instantly illuminated by candles, just as he knew it would be.
‘Strange, what is the operating energy? School protection? Or sneak some candles from the school? ’
Andrew looked at it, but now was not the time to think about that.
What he was looking for was a very old, even rusty, crown.
If there is no loophole, it should be on a statue?
He searched in this church-like room - it was a bit difficult, but not so scary with enough light.
'At least it's not tucked into a corner. ’
Wearing dragon skin gloves, an iron armor charm and a bubble head charm, he started searching fully armed.
When he felt sleepy, something that fit the impression finally appeared - it was on a crate, together with the old wizard statue.
‘No problem, it’s like this. ’
Andrew directly unfolded a large piece of dragon skin, then wrapped it and tied it with magic rope.
‘Recycling successful. ’
He suppressed this thought, maintained Occlumency, and walked unhurriedly to his laboratory - the neighbor was not asleep yet, and the door of the laboratory was open.
'It's really cool...but it doesn't matter. The magic is locked here. If you want to come in, please demolish the school first...'
Andrew shook his head, went back, put the things away, and locked the door.
Okay - now containment is over, go back to sleep.
But I always feel that it is not safe and I am planting some flags.
Andrew took a deep breath and stood in front of the laboratory door to make a wish.
'If it is exposed, I will directly point out all the Horcruxes, including Harry. I am the one who divined it! ’
Planting the flag in the opposite direction, he felt relieved, turned around and went to sleep!
