Chapter 158 The Third Halloween Incident

At the Three Broomsticks, Wright enjoyed a delicious pork ribs set meal while waiting for the three people.

Harry, Ron and Hermione hurried to the bar when it was about to dark.

As soon as I walked in, I saw Wright drinking steaming butterbeer and happily listening to the people in the bar bragging.

When he saw the people waiting had arrived, he greeted them: "Friends, would you like a delicious cup of butter beer?"

"Actually, we could have another Butterbeer!"

Seeing Wright drinking the beer in one breath and shouting happily, Ron couldn't help swallowing.

"It's already late, Ron." Hermione glanced at the sky outside and continued, "Besides, there will be a Halloween dinner later."

Wright, who wanted to have another glass of smooth and mellow butterbeer, did not delay any further after Hermione reminded him and left the bar directly.

After rushing all the way, Wright and others finally passed through the gate guarded by Dementors and returned to the castle before it was completely dark.

Not long after, the little wizards, who had just had a day of fun, welcomed the joyful Halloween dinner.

Excitement and joy enveloped them, and the entire auditorium was filled with cheerful laughter and lively conversation.

After the principal finished his speech, the banquet began with cheers.

"What a pity! Dumbledore didn't invite the Skeleton Dance Troupe this year." Ron, who was eating, said regretfully.

"It's been rumored every year, and we're disappointed every year!" Harry curled his lips, clearly showing that he didn't believe the rumor.

"There are no Skeleton Dance Troupe, but there are other shows! Don't forget that this is Hogwarts. There aren't too many ghosts, but there aren't too few either."

As soon as Wright finished speaking, the ghosts of Hogwarts appeared on stage with cheerful music. It seemed that they had been preparing for this performance for a long time.

To the accompaniment of brisk and eerie music, Nearly Headless Nick reenacts his experience of being beheaded.

With excellent music and atmosphere, the performance was a great success and received screams and applause from many little wizards.

When the dinner was over, Wright, Harry, Ron, and Hermione were returning to the Gryffindor common room.

But I saw a group of little lions surrounding the entrance of the passage, blocking it.

"Why doesn't everyone go in?" Ron stood on tiptoe and kept looking over.

"What happened again?" Harry's face immediately turned bitter when he saw the crowd and thought of the Halloween incidents he had experienced before.

"There is indeed a problem! The portrait guarding the passage has been torn down." Wright quickly understood the situation by absorbing the thoughts of the surrounding students.

As soon as Wright finished describing the situation ahead, Percy shouted in fear, "Quick, go inform Dumbledore! And the professors."

The little lions at the end of the line, who already felt something was wrong, immediately ran out to seek help.

Soon, Dumbledore and the professors received the news and walked quickly through the crowded crowd.

Looking at the portrait on the wall that seemed to be torn and damaged, Dumbledore reacted quickly and began to make arrangements:

"Minerva, I need your help to find her. I want to know what happened..."

"Maybe I can tell you!" At this time, strange laughter continued to sound in the corridor.

Amidst everyone's puzzled and inquiring eyes, Peeves shouted from mid-air in a mocking and funny tone:

"Stupid fat lady, haha~ While she was being torn to pieces, you were still feasting and celebrating! Hahaha..."

"So! What do you want to tell me?" Dumbledore looked at Peeves in the air calmly.

Faced with this stressful gaze, Peeves paused, then said calmly, "She is now in the landscape painting on the fifth floor."

"She is now very sad and hiding behind a tree crying and saying 'this is horrible, why is it happening' and stuff like that!"

Then he sneered and gloated, "How pitiful!"

"Does she know who did it?" Dumbledore narrowed his eyes and looked at Peeves dancing in the air.

"Didn't I say that? Ah! Yes, I didn't say that...haha!" Peeves was amusing himself.

Sensing the gradually colder aura, Dumbledore quickly said, "Black, Sirius Black."

"She wouldn't let him into the Gryffindor recess and he attacked. He's really cranky!"

I heard that the wanted criminal who only appeared in the image actually appeared and was captured by him.

Even with the presence of Dumbledore and the professors, the little lions couldn't help but become restless.

After learning the news, Dumbledore dispersed Peeves and asked the Gryffindor prefects to lead the restless little lions to the hall.

At the same time, ask the professors to notify the other three colleges to gather in the auditorium.

About half an hour later, students from Slytherin, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff gathered in the Great Hall.

Looking at the terrified students, Dumbledore announced loudly: "I will conduct a comprehensive search of the castle with the professors."

"At the same time, to ensure your safety, I hope you can stay here overnight."

At this point, Dumbledore paused, looked at Wright, whose cat was in the crowd, as if it had nothing to do with him, and continued:

"The prefects will guard the entrance to the Great Hall, and the Head Boy and Head Girl will be in charge."

"If anything happens, let Ghost report to me!"

As soon as Dumbledore finished speaking, Percy stood up and solemnly assured: "Professor, as the 'Chairman', I will definitely not let you down!"

After he finished speaking, the badge on his chest became even more dazzling under the light.

"Then I'll leave it to you! Mr. Weasley!"

After saying this, when Dumbledore was about to leave, he seemed to have thought of something, took out his wand and waved it gently.

Soon, the long tables in the auditorium flew to the corners and were neatly arranged.

At the same time, countless purple sleeping bags were spread out on the cleared ground.

"Children, have a good rest and don't worry!" After giving the instructions, Dumbledore took the professors out directly.

"What should we do? The wanted criminal is really here!" Ron said palely to Harry, who was also at a loss.

"It doesn't matter! Dumbledore and the professors will arrange it. And I'm still here!" Wright said indifferently.

At the same time, they picked up the sleeping bag and looked at it carefully. For children who had never camped before, sleeping bags were a completely new experience.

Harry, who knew Light's true fighting ability, felt slightly relieved when he heard this.

As for Ron and Hermione, no matter how they tried to comfort Harry, he remained nervous and panicked.

But now, just Wright's casual assurance made him feel so relieved, which made him very confused.
