Chapter 259 Alchemical Bomb
With the Quirrell incident coming to an end, the first school year soon came to an end.
The day after the school year dinner, a group of young wizards will board the Hogwarts again and return to London.
Early in the morning, after breakfast, a large number of young wizards began to leave the castle and head to Hogsmeade Station.
Hermione, Harry, Ron, and Neville walked together, talking about their holiday plans.
Harry, who was not very happy, noticed that Hermione was a little absent-minded and asked, "What's wrong with you? Are you unhappy about the holiday?"

"No! I'm just entangled in the fact that I'm not allowed to perform magic outside of school. This is really unreasonable." Hermione reluctantly found an excuse.
Hearing this, Harry also felt that this rule was quite brainless. Hogwarts clearly teaches people magic, but you are not allowed to use it during holidays. The wands of young wizards are monitored by traces before graduation. Once they cast magic, they will be detected by the Ministry of Magic and face expulsion.
"You can come to my house to play. Wizard villages are not subject to this restriction!" Ron interrupted at this time.
"My house is also OK. Grandma has always wanted you to visit her." Neville followed up.
Hermione nodded, indicating that she could write to contact her at that time.
In fact, what she was really worried about was the puppet enemy she was about to face.
For her, the test of a year of study has just begun.
Hermione has already planned the general action method in her mind: find, sneak attack, kill!
However, plans always cannot keep up with changes.
With a nervous heart, Hermione successfully got on the train.
When the vehicle started, white steam was spewed, just when she thought she could take a short break, Lu Yuan's voice suddenly sounded.
[Attention, those two people got on the train! γ
"What?!" Hermione was shocked, "How could they get on board? Only students and professors can ride on the Hogwarts."
[They replaced two students. ]
Hermione's heart sank, and she gritted her teeth, "So, are there any students dead?"
[No, with the castle contract, they dare not kill people near the school, but I think the situation of those two people should not be very good. ]
At the same time, in the old house behind the station in Hogsmeade Village, two fifth-year students were stripped to their underwear and fell asleep peacefully.
Hermione breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good that no one died. Will those two find us?"
[As long as you don't show any flaws in your expression, they won't find us, but the other party obviously knows this and doesn't plan to look for us slowly. ]
"What do you mean?"
[They are placing alchemical bombs, which means they are going to take everyone on the train away at once. ]
"What?!"
Hermione stood up directly, and the expression on her face almost didn't hold.
"Hermione, what's wrong with you?"
Harry and the other two looked at her with concern.
"I have to go to the bathroom." After saying that, Hermione hurried out of the box.
When she came to the corridor, she could see one or two people walking from time to time. Hermione didn't dare to look around and tried to act naturally, "Mr. System, can you determine the location of them and the alchemical bomb?"
[Easy. ]
After saying that, Hermione's vision suddenly changed. The location of the bomb and the location of the two enemies were all marked in red, which was very eye-catching.
At this moment, the two people were placing bombs from the center to both ends of the train.
In a year, the strength of Lu Yuan's divine consciousness can directly cover a diameter of 120 meters.
"Mr. System, if I throw all these bombs out of the window, will they sense it?"
[No, there are hourglass alchemical bombs, or time bombs, and there is no sensing method set up, but why do you want to throw them away? I will help you deal with it a little bit, and you can use it directly in the future, which can also be regarded as a kind of resource reserve. γ
"If this is possible, it would be the best. Thank you, Mr. System. Can you tell me how long it will take until the explosion?"
As she finished speaking, the red-marked bomb position revealed the explosion time, which was uniformly 25 minutes.
Such clear information made the little witch happy, "Praise Mr. System!"
After knowing the general situation, Hermione did not act immediately, but returned to the original compartment first.
Inside, Ron was discussing Quidditch skills with Harry.
After she came in, she quietly released a Confusion Spell. While the three were talking nonsense, Hermione quickly took the Invisibility Cloak from Harry's box.
"Sorry, borrow it for a while, Harry."
After doing this, Hermione left the compartment again. After the three came to their senses, they continued to discuss the topic just now.
Outside the compartment, Hermione put on the Invisibility Cloak as soon as possible, then cast a Silencing Spell on herself, sprinkled deodorant, and hurried to the center of the train, where the first bomb was located.
On the way, she happened to cross paths with a puppet, who politely pushed open the box under the pretext of looking for someone, and then the marble-sized alchemical bomb at her feet rolled silently under the box seat and automatically returned to the size of an apple, with a golden hourglass on it counting the time.
"Mr. System, how long will it take you to recover those alchemical bombs?"
[You just need to open the box door. ]
Hearing this, Hermione felt much more relaxed, and she had no scruples in her invisible cloak.
When she arrived at the central box, she did not knock on the door, but directly opened the box door a foot or so.
The laughter inside the box stopped.
"Who is it?"
Someone inside asked.
Hermione naturally didn't answer. The moment the door opened, the alchemical bomb was taken back and put into Hermione's bow pendant.
When the people in the compartment came out to check, she had already walked to the next compartment with her invisibility cloak on.
There were hundreds of compartments on the train. The two puppets did not drop bombs in every room, but dropped them at intervals.
Hermione's recovery action was faster than the other party's placement. After all, he only needed to open a crack in the door each time.
There were almost ten minutes left in the countdown.
Hermione took back all the alchemical bombs, a total of more than 60, which made her slightly relieved.
But the trouble was not over. After placing the bombs, the two puppets surprisingly did not leave, but chose a compartment to sit down separately.
They are alchemical puppets themselves, and they can also be alchemical bombs.
Now that the spherical bomb has been dismantled, Hermione is going to dismantle the two humanoid ones.
"Mr. System, it's time to start!"
[Come on! Don't worry about your identity. I will cover for you. γ
Hearing the reply, Hermione exhaled lightly, rubbed her face, and pulled off the invisibility cloak. She was revealed to be a young man with brown hair, just like she was on the platform.
Hermione walked straight to a box where a puppet was, as if looking for a friend, and opened the door of the box, and directly met the puppet enemy's eyes. Her expression was unnatural for a moment, and then she pretended to find the wrong box and left immediately.
Sure enough, the puppet chased after her.
However, the corridor was already empty.
Just as the puppet looked around, his wand was suddenly taken away. Before he could react, his legs were swept by a strong force, and he lost his balance instantly. Before he fell completely, his back was held by his knees, and his arm joints were locked. His weak and powerful arms passed through his armpits and the back of his head, and grabbed the other person's hair. When he subconsciously raised his head and opened his mouth.
A nine and three-quarter-inch vine dragon heartstring wand had already been stabbed into the other person's mouth.
"Flame explosion!"
Bang~!
The muffled sound of the explosion came from inside the puppet. Although the power was not great, it was just right to explode from the inside.
As the black smoke rose, the puppet's limbs trembled and gradually returned to its original appearance.
Hermione didn't even look at it and neatly put it into the bow pendant.
So, one is solved!
She stood up and was about to repeat the same trick to deal with the last one.
Lu Yuan's warning suddenly appeared.
[Be careful! ]
