Chapter 29
The three of them were busy cooking.
In the kitchen.
Several busy house elves came up to the three of them.
They didn't make any fuss, as they were used to it.
"Dear wizard, what would you like to eat?"
"Two servings of pumpkin juice, two baked potatoes and steak."
The Weasley twins said in unison.
"I want a glass of lemon juice, some fried sausages and bacon and eggs, thank you."
"Thank you? Sophie, did you hear that! The respected little wizard actually said thank you to Leah!" Leah showed amazing excitement, and pulled an elf next to her and couldn't stop asking.
The house elf named Sophie showed uncontrollable envy in her eyes.
"Okay, Leah, don't make our distinguished guest wait!"
"You're right! Leah actually made the distinguished guest wait for a long time! Leah is a bad elf! A bad guy!"
Lia seemed to be stimulated by something, and she raised her head and hit the wall.
Argus was stunned and didn't react for a while.
While he was distracted, Leah had already delivered the food that Argus and the other two requested.
The difference is that the food of the Weasley twins was just made according to their requirements and placed on a plate casually.
The sausages and bacon that Argus wanted to eat were exquisitely presented.
The thick sauce covered the bacon, and there was even a pure white flower in the lemonade cup.
"Dear guest, this is the sauce that Leah prepared for you!"
"Please taste it!"
Lia's eyes were full of expectations.
The Weasley twins looked at Argus's exquisite meal, and then looked at their own pile of pig food.
Completely sour!
"This is too hypocritical. Why didn't we get this treatment when we first came here!"
"No, Argus, we want to exchange food!"
Leah looked at Argus in panic, curled her lips, and opened her mouth to stop something.
But she didn't dare to speak.
Argus smiled and patted her head soothingly.
Cut a piece of bacon with a knife and dipped it in the sauce.
"It's delicious! Thank you for the hospitality, Leah!"
"The respected guest praised Leah!"
Leah was very happy and kept showing off to other elves.
A bunch of house elves in the kitchen were unwilling to lag behind, and they all took out their best skills.
Delicious food was delivered to Argus without any money.
Eager to get Argus' praise.
For the first time, Argus felt that too much food was also a torture.
This meal made Argus's belly bulge, and the Weasley twins benefited a lot from Argus and ate a lot of food they had never tasted before.
The three of them left with the reluctant eyes of the house elves.
George couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that next time I sneak into the kitchen, I have to drag Argus with me."
"Otherwise, I will definitely not be able to eat this kind of food!"
Fred nodded and agreed: "Yes, I'm afraid that after eating today's meal, I won't be able to eat other food in the future!"
"Don't worry, there will be opportunities in the future."
Argus doesn't think that he will stay in the dormitory honestly every night in the future.
The forbidden book area of the library and the secret rooms of several founders of Hogwarts are all places he wants to explore.
If there is a chance to get the Marauder's Map from the Weasley twins, the Saints must also find time to take a look.
In this way, he can't stay in the dormitory for a long time.
Since the lounges of Gryffindor and Slytherin are not on the same road, the three of them left after eating supper.
The Weasley twins originally planned to give Argus a ride, but Argus refused.
Along the road he had walked before, Argus sneaked quietly.
His memory was pretty good. Even if he only walked through it once, he could remember the way back clearly.
"Meow!"
Suddenly, a cat cried in the silent passage.
Then came the hoarse voice of Filch, the Hogwarts administrator.
"Mrs. Norris, someone sneaked out again, right?"
"Smell carefully!"
What bad luck!
Even this could happen?
I must learn the Disillusionment Charm when I get back!
Argus cursed himself for being unlucky, looked around, jumped onto the escalator, and went into a classroom not far away.
There was no light in the dark classroom, and Filch's footsteps were getting closer and closer behind him.
Argus was afraid of being discovered, so he didn't dare to use magic lighting.
He held on to the wall and walked forward in the dark.
He didn't care much about the deduction.
.
Only children would care about such a plaything.
The reason he didn't want to be caught was that he was worried that Dumbledore would suspect him.
Since the last conversation in the principal's office, he knew that he had aroused Dumbledore's fear.
And now, there is still a long time before Voldemort's resurrection.
He didn't want Dumbledore to shift his attention to himself.
"There is another door?"
"No, why does this door look familiar!"
Argus recalled the series of stone statues and spider webs he touched on the road, and a bitter smile appeared on his face.
"It can't be such a coincidence?"
"Why did I run to Fluffy!"
Through the crack in the door, he heard the faint snoring coming from inside the door.
He immediately understood where he ran to!
The first test Dumbledore set for Harry, the hiding place of the Philosopher's Stone.
It is also the detention center of Fluffy the three-headed dog!
If you say that there is no magic here cast by Dumbledore, he will never believe it!
Who knows, Dumbledore might know it as soon as he opened the door.
"Take a gamble!"
Argus hid in a corner, picked up the wand and pointed it at himself.
"Clean it up!"
A slight magic passed over, and the smell of dust on his body slowly dissipated.
The footsteps of Filch and Mrs. Norris sounded outside the door.
"Is anyone coming in, dear?"
Filch hunched over, holding the oil lamp in his hand and picked up Mrs. Norris.
He poked his head inside and observed carefully for a while.
It seemed that he felt that there was no one inside, muttered for a while, and turned away with the cat in his arms.
"Fortunately, I used magic to remove the smell in advance."
"Hurry back to the dormitory. If you run into a professor, it's better to fool him than Filch."
Argus waited for a while and walked out of the room after confirming that Filch had left.
But not long after walking, Argus discovered a sad thing.
He was lost!
That's right!
The staircases in Hogwarts are interconnected. He just jumped up the stairs once and turned a few corners, and then he found that he couldn't find the way back.
"I should have asked the Weasley twins to take me back!"
"How long will it take to go back and forth like this!"
Agus hated his previous gentlemanly behavior.
He flicked the bullet towards the bottom of the castle, and was hesitating whether to jump down directly.
A strong smell of garlic rushed into his nose.
Then, there was a stuttering voice.
"S... Slytherin freshman? Why... why are you here?"
