Chapter 378 Chase in the Castle
Because they stayed in the Room of Requirement for too long, after being reminded by Qiu and Kanna, they hurriedly walked towards the auditorium.
"I can't believe we missed our Halloween party."
Fred walked quickly in the front, saying, "Pumpkin pie...fried pork chops...kebab pie..."
"Shut up, Fred." George, who was right behind him, said dissatisfiedly: "I wasn't hungry at all just now, but now I just feel like I can eat a cow."
Several people quickened their pace again, and soon came to the end of the corridor.
As long as you turn this corner, you will find the stairs not far ahead, and you will be able to reach the auditorium by following the stairs all the way down.
At this time, Fred, who was walking in the front and the first to leave the corridor, suddenly stopped and asked, "Wait, is the dinner already over?"
"How is it possible..." Kang Na said, "The banquet has only started 10 minutes now, and it's still too early to end. You must be overly hungry, right?"
"Then why has someone come back?" Fred asked, pointing forward.
"what?"
The others hurried to the corner, then turned their heads and looked in the direction of his fingers.
Not far away is the stairs, and further forward, a dark figure is standing in front of a huge portrait.
The lights were a bit dim, and they couldn't see the figure of the figure clearly, but they recognized the painting.
A portrait of the Fat Lady, which is also the entrance to the Gryffindor common room.
"It's strange, who is this." George said subconsciously: "He was full in just 10 minutes..."
Before he finished speaking, the fat lady in the portrait let out a loud scream that almost pierced the eardrum.
"You're that Sirius Bligh..."
"Sizzle!"
The figure raised its hand and frantically tore at the fat lady's portrait.
"Let me in...he's inside...let me in!"
His voice was a bit strange, hoarse and dull, as if it was squeezed out of his throat, it sounded more like the low growl of some kind of animal.
"What did the Fat Lady just say...is he Sirius Black?"
Fred seemed to have just reacted, but his movements were not slow, and he drew out his wand immediately.
"Obviously." Cedric did the same, staring at the dark figure in front of him like an enemy.
The other party also noticed the movement here, and turned around suddenly.
A beam of light shone on his face...
Dirty, unkempt hair hanging down to the elbows, sunken eyes, and waxy skin stretched tight over the cheekbones, it looked like a skinned skeleton.
"It's Blake!" Fred became more nervous. "He's exactly like the portrait in the Daily Prophet."
After hearing his words, Black grinned like a beast about to go mad.
"Passed out!"
"Quickly imprisoned!"
"All petrochemical!"
……
Without the slightest hesitation, Cedric and the others used their best spells at the same time.
Five lights of different colors flew straight towards Black.
But the other party's reaction was equally quick.
While several people were chanting the spell, Blake was already lying on the ground on all fours, and flexibly avoided all the spells with a weird movement.
After that, he still maintained this posture of using both hands and feet, and quickly fled from the other side of the corridor.
"Don't let Black run away, he must not have a wand yet!" Fred roared, and when he was about to catch up, he found someone faster than him.
"I'll chase after you, go to the auditorium and inform the professor!"
Kyle said without turning his head: "I have dealt with the dark wizard Oren in the first grade, and I have experience..."
I don't know if he was too anxious, but when Kyle ran out, he knocked down a pair of armor, just in front of Fred.
After such a delay, when Fred looked up again, Kyle had disappeared on the other side of the corridor.
"Wait, it's too dangerous for you alone..." Fred shouted.
But Kyle didn't stop.
After leaving the corridor, and passing through a few more corridors, he soon saw Black.
The other party lifted a tapestry with dragons painted on it, and was about to drill into the passage behind.
"stop!"
Kyle threw a spell and it exploded in Black's ear.
He originally wanted to use this method to force Black to stop and talk to him, but the other party turned a blind eye to the magic spell that was close at hand. Not only did he not intend to stop, but he speeded up and got into the passage. Gone in the blink of an eye.
This is a shortcut to the fourth floor, and the exit is in an empty classroom.
This time Kyle didn't chase after him, but just took a look in the passage.
Blake is obviously overly nervous, and just wants to leave the castle as soon as possible, and he probably won't listen to what he is saying at the moment.
And explaining is a bit of a waste of time, maybe other people will come over before the words are said.
"Kyle..."
what to say.
As soon as Kyle put down the tapestry, Fred, George, Cedric and Connor ran over panting.
"Why are you all here?" Kyle turned his head and asked, "Why didn't you go to the auditorium to inform the professor."
"What nonsense are you talking about... How could we let you deal with Black alone." George said dissatisfied.
"Cho has already gone to the auditorium," Cedric said.
"You ran too fast just now, we still asked Pippi to find your location...Where is Black..."
"How are you?" Kang Na stepped forward nervously and asked, "You're not injured, are you?"
"No," Kyle said, "but Blake ran and I missed it."
"You didn't even catch up?" Fred asked in surprise.
To be honest, they only thought about whether Kyle would be in danger facing Black alone, but never thought that he would lose him.
Kyle has been making Hogwarts maps for four consecutive years, and he knows every road in the castle like the back of his hand.
Is Blake so amazing... Is this all running away?
"No way..." Kyle shrugged. "He seems to be very familiar with the castle and can always find the most suitable escape route. When I chased him nearby, he disappeared."
"Oh, yes, Blake also graduated from Hogwarts." George suddenly thought of something: "I remember that the "Daily Prophet" said that he is also a Gryffindor, and he must be familiar with the eighth floor."
Fred accidentally saw the tapestry with dragons painted beside him, and said thoughtfully, "Tell me, is it possible that he came from..."
"So you are all here..."
A familiar voice came from behind, interrupting what Fred was about to say.
Everyone turned around.
Professor Dumbledore was standing not far behind them, no one noticed how he appeared, as if he was there in the first place.
……
