Chapter 200 Why are you here?

Late at night, Harry, Ron, and Hermione knocked down the Gryffindor Sword Master Neville Longbottom who was blocking them. Poor little Neville, who had been hit by a body-binding spell, lay on the cold floor, weak and weak. , pitiful, and helpless.

After passing Neville's level, the trio met Peeves again, blocking the way. Fortunately, Harry reacted quickly and disguised himself as Bloody Barrow to scare away the troublesome Peeves, and the three of them were able to enter the restricted area on the fourth floor.

However, the trio found that they were late. The three-headed dog Luwei was already fast asleep. There was a harp at his feet. They thought it was left by Snape.

The three people jumped down the trap door, safely passed Hagrid's three-headed dog, and landed softly on the devil's net set by Professor Sprout. Hermione, who listened attentively to the lecture, helped Harry and Ron escape from the devil's net. The blue bellflower-like flames forced the devil's net back in just a few seconds.

What awaited them next was Professor Flitwick's flying key. Gryffindor's seeker Harry showed off his skills and easily grabbed the correct key without any need for slowing down measures such as freezing spells.

In the huge chessboard room, Ron ushered in the highlight of his life. Ron, who could beat Ada, would naturally win the chess game. Just to protect Harry and Hermione, Ron had no choice but to "sacrifice" himself, fell heavily to the floor, and passed out.

There were only two people left protecting the Philosopher's Stone. Harry and Hermione walked to the next room. The troll in the smelly room had been knocked down. They passed the level set by Quirrell without doing anything.

Quirrell is very experienced in dealing with trolls. When he set up the level to protect the magic stone, he also chose trolls because he could pass it easily.

Unaware of anything, Harry and Hermione continued to move forward, with Snape's level in front of them.

Hermione was not Ada. She didn't know what these potions were. Naturally, she could only analyze which ones were poisons and which ones could help them through simple reasoning.

After drinking the fireproof potion respectively, Harry and Hermione moved forward and backward. Now the only one who could stop Snape was himself.

But when Harry Potter entered the last room, he was dumbfounded. Instead of seeing Snape, he saw Quirrell, whom he had always believed in!

Harry Potter had been doubting Snape since Halloween, and no matter what Hagrid said, he insisted on his own ideas. Even if it was Ada's reminder, he ignored it. He firmly believed in Snape. No matter how strange Quirrell behaved, he never had any doubts about the professor.

Even when he saw Quirrell here, Harry couldn't believe it was true. It wasn't until Quirrell told the truth that he understood what was going on!

The last hurdle to protect the Philosopher's Stone was the Mirror of Erised set by Dumbledore himself. Quirrell failed to pass the test of the mirror. Quirrell didn't think of Harry until Voldemort attached to the back of his head reminded him.

Harry was brought to the mirror by Quirrell. He saw himself in the mirror putting the red magic stone into his trouser pocket, and then Harry felt something heavy fall into his pocket. Incredible, this is so magical. Quirrell tried his best to get the magic stone, but he actually got it so easily!

Harry deceived Quirrell with his childish lies, but did not deceive the sophisticated Voldemort. His lies were exposed.

Quirrell tried to catch Harry who was running away, but he couldn't touch Harry. As soon as his left hand touched Harry, he shrieked and retracted his hand. His left hand seemed to be burned, and there were stains on it. Covered with blisters.

"Master, I can't hold him...my hand...my hand!" Quirrell cried out in pain, begging Voldemort for forgiveness.

"Then kill him, fool, act quickly!" Voldemort's harsh voice echoed in the underground room.

Quirrell pulled out his wand and pointed it at Harry, who was running towards the black flames. Just as he was about to recite the fatal spell, a sweet voice like wind chimes sounded in the room: "I'm late, I didn't see you in shock. The expression is really regretful!”

Esmeralda Drizzt passed through the black flames and came to the underground room. She stood in front of Harry with her wand raised, just like Dumbledore had stood in front of her.

Harry looked at the sudden appearance of Ada in surprise, and Quirrell had the same expression on his face. Neither of them could understand why Ada appeared here?

Let's turn the clock back to when Harry went to Professor McGonagall's office. While Harry, Ron, and Hermione rushed to Professor McGonagall's office anxiously, Ada secretly returned to the castle under the cover of darkness.

During the three years in the castle, Ada often explored the castle with the twins. Under the Disillusionment Curse, she easily bypassed the students and intercepted Fred and George who were going to "harass" Professor McGonagall halfway. We hid together in an empty classroom near the restricted area on the fourth floor.

Fred and George gave Ada a big hug respectively. They didn't ask where she had been during this time. There was no need to express their thoughts in words. A long-lost hug was worth a thousand words.

The last time Ada and the twins got together to chat like this was a month ago, but this month has been as long as a year.

The Marauder's Map was spread out on the table nearby, and two similar-looking flat pots were pressed against the corners of the map. George took the Marauder's Map directly from the dormitory, and these two flat bottles were used by Ada to store fire-proof medicine. Fred had to trick Angelina to get these two flat bottles from the girls' dormitory. pot.

"Ada, do you really want to help Dumbledore keep an eye on Harry?" Fred asked. He was still dissatisfied with Dumbledore, especially for concealing Ada's whereabouts.

"If he helps me, I will help him back. If I can owe less, I will owe less." Ada said nonchalantly, "And I also want to hone myself."

"Although I don't know where you have been, I feel like you have changed a lot." George's senses were very keen, and he noticed that Ada was different from a month ago.

"I can't talk about that place for the time being. I met an interesting old man there. He made me understand a lot of things and see a lot of things clearly." Ada said, "This was an unforgettable journey."

"Of course it's unforgettable. It's so unforgettable that you didn't even send a letter back. Do you know how afraid Professor McGonagall is of seeing the two of us now?" Fred said dissatisfiedly, and rolled his eyes at Ai. Da.

Ada laughed and said: "There is really no way to communicate in that place. Even if I write you a letter, I can't give it to you. Owls can't go to that place!"

Fred shook off Ada who was tugging on his sleeve and ignored Ada's flattery. He looked at the Marauder's Map intently. He noticed that Quirrell had left his office and headed towards the fourth floor.

When Quirrell's name disappeared from the right-hand corridor on the fourth floor, Fred asked: "Should we go over and catch him now, or should we wait?"

"Wait a little longer. The protagonist of this play hasn't appeared yet. Why are we supporting actors so anxious to appear on stage!"

The three of them continued to chat in low voices, talking about school matters during this period while paying attention to the Marauder's Map, especially Gryffindor's Tower.

"You don't know, during your absence recently, Flint and the Slytherins were so arrogant that they walked sideways." Fred said, "We even had a fight with Flint. , who asked him to speak ill of you?"

"Those bastards from Gryffindor, we didn't let them go either. Fred and I happened to have some immature experiments, and their existence solved the problem of no experimental subjects for us." George also said, "We need to Not Madam Pomfrey, they should still be in the school doctor's office right now!"

Fred and George would not be indifferent to Ada's departure. These two brothers did not let go of Gryffindor, which caused Ada to leave the school. If they had not found the opportunity, Dumbledore would have been attacked by the two brothers. A vicious hand.

In front of the twins, Dumbledore was the same as those others. He was not treated differently because he was the principal. All living beings were equal.

Fred is showing Ada the results of their research. These candies can make people sick for a short time, but the antidote is still under development.

"Here, Harry has left the common room, along with Ron and Hermione." George, who was staring at the Marauder's Map, interrupted Fred's display.

There was no use staring at the common room, there were too many names there and it looked too tiring, all he needed to do was stare at the tower, where Harry would be spotted as soon as he left.

Ada jumped down from the desk and said, "After the three of them go in, we will go in after a while. Lu Wei is really pitiful tonight."

In this way, Harry neither knew that it was not Snape but Quirrell who was waiting for him in front of him, nor did he know that Tails was following behind him, so he recklessly took his little friends to protect the Philosopher's Stone.

Harry, who has not celebrated his twelfth birthday, is still just a child, and he cannot think so comprehensively.

Harry had never thought about why they had passed through the layers of protection of the Philosopher's Stone. If the professors hadn't paddled the water and set up such a simple mechanism, they might have been doomed before they saw the Philosopher's Stone.

Harry never thought about it, why could he stop Voldemort as a first-year person? Did Fish Liang give him the courage? If he didn't have the power to protect him, how could he break free from Quirrell's control.

This is the halo of the protagonist, which is something you can’t envy.

When Harry and Hermione entered the troll's room, Ada and the twins arrived at the giant chessboard. The twins immediately spotted Ron lying on his back. The two of them hurried over to check his condition and found that he had probably just passed out. The two brothers felt relieved.

Ada also came over. She waved her wand at Ron. Under the influence of the resuscitation spell, Ron who had fainted woke up. Ron looked at Ada and the twins surrounding him in shock. He almost fainted again after he had just woken up.

"Why are you here?"

Tangyuan rearranged the order of what happened at the end of the school year, allowing Quirrell to steal the Philosopher's Stone a few days in advance.
