At night, the trio met at the door of the auditorium. All three of them were a little nervous. Even knowing that Professor Embers was not there, it was not something to be happy about going into the professor's office to steal things.
"We need to make a quick decision." Hermione said, "In case Professor Embers comes back suddenly or something... that would be too dangerous."
"Understood." Harry nodded, "It's already ten o'clock now."
"No one will see it." Ron said, not knowing whether he was comforting himself or comforting others.
Harry lifted his invisibility cloak and covered the three of them. Under the cloak, the three disappeared into the night, and there were indeed not many people wandering in the corridor on Christmas night.
Most of the little wizards returned to the common room, and there were no people in the usually bustling corridors, let alone the sparse office corridors.
The corridor outside the office of the Duel Magic Class was quiet, even the lights in the corridor were extinguished. This is also the place with the most bleak Christmas atmosphere, and there are not even a few decorated pine trees.
"Ouch..." Hermione muttered dissatisfiedly, "You stepped on me."
"Sorry sorry..." muttered Ron, who had just stepped on Hermione's heel.
"We're almost there." Harry muttered, already seeing the distant office through the hazy cloak.
"Pa-ta-pa-ta." Footsteps came, and the three of them hurriedly stopped at the corner of the corridor, holding their breath at the same time.
"Bang bang bang." Then there was a knock on the door, and the person who knocked seemed a little strange.
"What's going on?" A familiar female voice came, and the three of them froze for a moment.
"It's Senior Sister An Luo..." Hermione muttered, "Why is she here?"
"She came to see Professor Embers?" Harry guessed, he could see a figure standing at the door of the office through the moonlight.
"Hey..." Woka sighed, and then left with a frown. She also carried a good snack, but she didn't expect that Professor Embers was not there.
"She's gone," muttered Ron.
Harry and Hermione nodded, and the trio continued to walk slowly ahead.
Soon, they came to the door of the office. The exquisite wooden door was locked tightly, and Harry found it impossible to push it open with light force.
"Locked inside?" he muttered.
"Alahoo is open." Hermione flicked her wand lightly to unlock the door, and with the sound of the lock falling, the office door opened.
Harry pushed the door open, and poked his head in slightly.
He looked around the office, but he saw neither Professor Embers nor the familiar portrait.
"There's no one inside." He turned his head and said, then walked in lightly.
The three of them walked to the desk and nodded slightly.
Harry stretched out his hand and opened a few drawers. Inside were all useless documents and materials.
"Not that." Hermione shook her head.
She stretched out her hand and pulled a drawer in the corner. The drawer didn't move at all, as if it was locked.
"It should be this." Ron said, he did not pull open the drawer with a little effort.
"Alahoo hole." Hermione used the unlocking spell again, but the drawer only shook slightly after the spell was thrown out, but it didn't open.
"It's a counter-curse." Hermione explained to the two puzzled friends, "Professor Embers put a counter-curse on it."
"Then what?" Harry asked, reaching out and trying to pull the drawer open, but couldn't.
Seeing this, Ron shook his head. He picked up the wand in his hand, and then whispered: "The soul sword is out of its sheath."
The silver-blue soul sword appeared, and with a stroke of Ron's wand, he cut open the drawer like a hot knife cutting butter, and then he pulled the drawer out alive with all his might.
"Is this too exaggerated?" Hermione said, "In case Professor Embers..."
"We are here to save him." Ron said solemnly: "If we take away the diary, we can save Professor Embers."
"Luminescent flashes." Two dots of light emerged from the tip of Hermione's wand, and then successfully illuminated the drawer.
There were some letters in it, and then there was an exquisite wand. If Dumbledore saw the wand, he might be a little surprised, because the owner of this wand was that Professor Thom.
"Found it..." Harry said as he pulled out a diary from inside, which looked quite ordinary, and then opened the cover, which was empty.
"In line with what Malfoy said." Hermione nodded, grabbing the diary.
"Let's go." Harry said, standing up, and then quickly walked towards the office door, stealing things in the office, he was under a lot of psychological pressure.
"What are you doing?" Suddenly, a stern female voice came, and at the same time there were two similar male voices.
"Ronnie, what are you doing?"
"And Harry and Hermione... have you learned badly too?"
Let's go back to 10 minutes ago.
"Professor Embers is not here?" George looked curiously at the approaching Walka, who was still holding the selected cake in her hand.
"Professor Embers is not here." Woka said sullenly: "He actually left this Christmas."
"Who knows the reason." Fred shook his head, "He reached out to take Woka's cake.
"Give us a taste?"
"No." Woka reached out to take back the cake, "I'm waiting for Professor Embers to come back."
"Then this cake is still edible?" George muttered, he shrugged, then threw up the Bludger in his hand, and caught it again.
"Would you like to use the Marauder's Map?" Fred thought for a while and said, "Maybe Professor Embers is still at Hogwarts."
"It makes sense." Woka nodded: "Quickly use the map to see."
"Okay, okay..." George also nodded, he threw the Bludger aside, and then pulled out the dirty parchment from his arms.
"You should wash it," Worka muttered.
"Show a map?" George rolled his eyes.
And Fred had already raised his wand.
"I swear I don't do good!"
As he spoke, the map gradually emerged, and many names also emerged.
Dumbledore was walking in the headmaster's office, Snape was in the office doing potions research, Wood was on the Quidditch pitch, Harry Ron and Hermione were in the dueling magic office.
Hmm... wait?
George pointed out the names of the three: "Why are they in the office?"
"Professor Embers is back?" Woka asked suspiciously.
"No..." Fred shook his head, "There are only three names on it..."
"Let's go and have a look." George said and jumped off the table, holding the map by the way.
Fred followed suit.
Woka looked at the cake in her hand, gritted her teeth, and followed the three of them holding the cake.
…………
In Florence Manor, Ash gently opened the diary. He was checking for omissions and filling in the gaps. As an ashes with a bad memory, occasionally he still needs to go through the past carefully.
By the way, this can also remind him not to forget, not to forget those people in Rodland...
Oh... Ash frowned slightly, he saw something he had forgotten... that notebook, that notebook with hidden secrets.
Thinking of this, Ash shook his head slightly. It seemed that he had left the notebook in Hogwarts' office, and he might have to go get it back. It's a bit dangerous to put such a dangerous thing in Hogwarts...
If it doesn't work, I'd better ask Dumbledore again... After all, I really don't have any clues.
Thinking of this, Ash waved his wand lightly, and disappeared into the thick night.
