Peeves is really able to toss to a certain extent.
Since the birth of Peeves, except for the era when the Big Four were directly in charge of the school, basically no one was able to control Peeves at other times. Even in 1876, the then administrator Rankos Calpe wanted to put Peeves The ghost drove out of the castle and devised an ingenious trap.The trap consists of various weapons used as bait, and a large bell that has been cast with various diversion spells.And when Peeves got into the right position, the bell would drop to hold him.
But everything didn't go according to plan.Peeves easily blew the bell, and left with a few scimitars, some crossbows, a musket-loading musket, and a small cannon.Peeves started shooting at will for fun, and the lives of the students were threatened.As a result, the castle had to be evacuated for three days.
Three days later, Professor Eupracia Moore, who was the principal at the time, agreed to sign an agreement with Peeves, allowing him to hand over his weapons in exchange for more privileges, including: swimming in the boys' bathroom on the first floor every week Swim once, give priority to the moldy bread in the kitchen to throw away, and get a new hat specially ordered for him by Ms. Bonnabile.
This was the most disastrous and final attempt to rid Peeves.The incident also forced Mr Calpe to retire early "for health reasons".
This is just one of the more exaggerated items in Peeves' bad resume.
For centuries, Peeves has rarely messed with serving professors, much less the headmaster.Of course, the premise must be that these people have not really turned against Peeves.
But Peeves can really treat the castle warden and the students as objects of his own amusement.
And when they faced Peeves, they basically wouldn't cause any substantial harm to him.
But now, when Luke wanted to find Peeves, that arrogant Peeves actually hid, not daring to see him.
It really left Luke at a loss for what to say.I just don't know whether Peeves could perceive his position in advance and then dodge, or simply found a place to hide.
So Luke took a deep breath and calmed down. He asked many people along the way, but none of them had seen Peeves.This also means that the high probability is the latter.
But the opponent is a ghost, and the Marauder's map can't show it.As for the familiarity with the castle.Not even Dumbledore dared to say that he was more familiar with Hogwarts than Peeves.
His search is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack.
"Should I just go and squat in front of the cafeteria?"
Luke murmured to himself.
"Meow!"
Suddenly, a cat meowed.
Luke recognized this Booker's voice, and as expected, when he lowered his head, he found Booker squatting at his feet at some point.
"what happened?"
Luke popped him off the ground, patted his head and asked.
"Meow meow!"
Booker stretched out his paw and pointed to the left.
"Following your instructions?"
"Meow~"
Booker has a humanized confidence on his face.And Luke frowned, but soon relaxed.
"Okay, let's go!"
With that said, he walked towards the direction that Booker pointed.
Under Booker's instructions, Luke jumped up and down in the castle, climbed through windows and walls.Luke looked at the narrow and long platform less than [-] centimeters under his feet, and then at the shadow of Booker leading the way leisurely in front, suddenly felt that his brain was somewhat naive.
"Why do I feel that the path a cat walks is something that normal people can walk..."
After walking a long, strange terrain, Luke was finally back indoors.
He looked at Booker and prayed in his heart that Booker would not make a hole or something.At the very least, there must be a door next to the drill hole.
Fortunately, his expectations did not come true, Booker did not lead him to drill holes.Instead, he took him to stay in front of a wall.
This place looks like a remote and dark corridor. It is close to the end of the castle. Looking around, there is no trace of people.
Luke didn't rush either.Anyway, he was already prepared to return without success, so even if it was really a dead end here, he could accept it.
But obviously, Booker will not bring him here for no reason.
Booker bowed on the ground, then jumped up suddenly, his paws slapped on a stone brick about Luke's chest.
Then, there was a crisp sound of bricks colliding.
Luke looked at the wall in front of him, which opened slowly, revealing a downward staircase.
This is a route not shown on the Marauder's map.
This is also normal.After all, the creators, James Potter and others, only stayed in Hogwarts for seven years with all their efforts.Although they explored a large part of Hogwarts, it was obviously impossible to gain insight into all the secrets of this castle.
Luke didn't hesitate too much. He knew that Booker in front of him was still Booker, and he was not controlled by any spell.Then it is impossible for a normal Booker to harm him, so he is naturally quite calm.
Going down the steps, it didn't take long for a small door to appear in front of Luke's eyes.
And outside the door, Luke heard Peeves' wailing.
"Ahhh! Why does that kid from the Gaunt family look so weird! Now he still wants to find me! I don't want to trouble you anymore, but you are still looking for trouble with me now!"
"Really! It's worthy of being the offspring of that old monkey in Salazar! It's worthy of having the same talent as Godric's dead octopus!"
"How can the ghost accept the combination of two troublesome spirits!"
Luke never expected that Peeves would give Luke such a big surprise before he entered the door.
Booker trailed behind Luke and had no intention of going any further.
The ghost knows if there will be a conflict in a while, he is just a harmless kitten.What a shame to be caught in the pond all of a sudden.
Thinking of this, Booker simply sat down on the spot, and then began to lick his paws.Eyes fixed on Luke who was walking towards the door.
Luke walked lightly, trying not to disturb Peeves.He can run through walls.
And just when Luke was about to break in.From the door in front of him, a person with long black hair suddenly sprang out; there was a pair of small but energetic heads with somewhat evil black eyes.
Half of his orange bow tie was exposed.The hat full of bells was almost on Luke's chest.
One person and one ghost looked at each other.
Peeves turned to run.But quickly felt a strong sense of crisis.
"Turn around and look at me."
Behind him came the grim voice of the Gaunt imp.
He turned around stiffly on the spot, and saw the kid holding a familiar wand in his hand.
Luke felt the Slytherin wand in his hand excited now.It felt like Booker saw Scabbers.
"You know, this thing can teach you a lot of lessons." Luke looked at the funny ghost with a serious face, "Now, I have something to ask you."
