The Alchemist of Harry Potter

　　 The two returned to the castle the same way. As soon as they returned to the third floor, George and Fred prepared to take a shortcut and return to the Gryffindor common room.

　　Before they got out of the secret road, the two had already determined the next route, and repeatedly confirmed that the number one "enemy" of the overnight trip was still resting in their room.

　　 "Ah, ah..."

　　 Seeing that George was about to sneeze, Fred quickly reached out and covered George's mouth to avoid making too much noise.

　　 "It's okay, but the nose is a little itchy." George stretched out his hand and rubbed his nose, then covered his nose with a yawn. He began to miss his soft bed.

　　 "It might be a cold!" Fred looked at his twin brother sympathetically, "Go back!"

　　 The two went up the stairs to the fifth floor, preparing to go directly to the eighth floor from a secret road here.

"Meow."

　　 A strange meow.

　　 Fred’s movements froze in place, raised his wand and looked forward, a dark figure came out from the corner, and the two of them looked attentively, and it was Filch’s Lady Lorice.

　　 Cat turned and ran after seeing the two.

　　 After Fred and George looked at each other, they suddenly laughed happily. They all knew what the cat was doing, and Filch would soon fill the castle looking for their whereabouts.

　　 But Fred and George didn't care, because they had already returned to the lounge by then.

　　Fred and George were in a very happy mood at the thought of Filch, who had a cold, and woke up in the middle of the night.

　　 "Go, I want to go back to bed early." George yawned frequently.

　　 The two reached the eighth floor through the secret passage on the fifth floor, through the dark and silent Gryffindor promenade, and came to the portrait of the fat lady.

　　 However, the painting in front of the two of them was empty, which made them fall into a trough with a happy mood.

　　 The fat lady went out late at night to drop in.

　　 At this moment, Fred and George both realized that they were locked outside the Gryffindor lounge.

　　 "What should I do?" Fred's face was not pretty. They didn't know when the fat lady would come back. Moreover, Filch had already gotten up, and he and his cat were on their way to the fifth floor.

　　 The guy took a short cut through the secret tunnel, faster than the two expected.

　　 "Albert is really a crow's mouth." George said helplessly, "I don't want to spend the night here at all. That would definitely catch a cold, or else, find a place to rest first?"

　　 Looking for a place to rest?

　　 It is undoubtedly more appropriate to go on a night tour, find a place to stay, and wait for the fat lady to come back than risking the risk of colliding with Filch.

　　Where is the right place to stay?

　　 The answer is secret way.

There are several secret passages on the eighth floor, but Fred is not so sure that Filch knows which ones. Through the live-point map, both of them saw that Filch had reached the fifth floor through the secret passage and began to search for the night tour. student.

　　 "Let Filch find it!" George curled his lips.

　　 "Be careful not to capsize." Fred reminded.

　　 He didn't want to be caught by Filch. Once caught, he would never end well.

　　 Not only had to face Filch's nasty face, but also Professor McGonagall and Percy. After a large number of points were deducted, Gryffindor students would not give them a good face.

　　 Now, I can only expect Filch to give up searching early, and the fat lady to return sooner.

　　 On the fifth floor, in the portrait corridor, Filch was patrolling with an oil lamp. He is in a terrible mood now, he accidentally caught a cold today, his head is still a little dizzy, and he can't rest for a good night.

　　 No, no, still no.

　　 Filch swept across the abandoned classroom with an oil lamp, and he also pricked his ears to distinguish the surrounding sounds carefully. His pet, Mrs. Lorice, is also helping to find the target, but still can't catch the night wandering student, or even hear other movements?

　　 "Run away?" Filch murmured, "No, it's impossible!"

　　 It didn't take a few minutes for Mrs. Loris to sound the alarm. Those pesky little ghosts couldn't run so fast.

　　 "They can't go far, I will catch them!" Filch admitted that no one knew all the secret passages of Hogwarts Castle better than him, and no one could escape from his hand.

　　 However, Filch did not know that his actions fell completely into the twins' eyes. They stared at the ink dot symbolizing Filch on the map of the point of life, watching it move through the secret tunnels on all floors of the castle, watching Lady Lorice separate from Filch, and search for their whereabouts separately.

　　 "Filch is really familiar with the secret tunnels of the castle, and it is very difficult for ordinary students who travel at night to not be caught by him." George said with emotion.

"It's not the time to feel this. We can't stay here anymore. Filch may know this secret path. We must find a place that Filch doesn't know about." Fred immediately realized theirs. The situation is not good.

　　 "Why don't you go and see if the fat lady is back." George suggested that if you can enter the lounge, you don't need to worry about Filch.

　　 "Go and see." Fred agreed.

　　 They left the secret road again and came to the portrait of the Fat Lady at the end of the Gryffindor Promenade. The result was still disappointing, and the Fat Lady had not yet returned.

"We have to go. If Filch searches for the eighth floor, we will definitely not be able to hide. Go to the passage of the knight's armor on the seventh floor I think Filch must not know that passage, as long as Wherever he hides, Filch will definitely not be able to find us."

　　 However, there is Mrs. Lorice patrolling on the seventh floor. If you are not careful, you may be caught.

　　 The two planned to go to other floors through the secret road with the lion and eagle head carved on the eighth floor, but they found that Filch was actually coming along this secret road towards the eighth floor.

"Run!" Fred yelled in a low voice, hurriedly speeding up and running. When the two went down the stairs to the seventh floor, Filch had already walked out of the lion and eagle head sculpture, and immediately heard running. Moving sound.

"I found you, don't want to slip away!" Filch murmured. He carried the oil lamp and stepped towards the seventh floor to chase. Mrs. Loris immediately ran over to meet and led the way in front of him, taking him to find the night The guy wandering in the castle.

　　 "No, Filch is coming over here!" Fred didn't try to open the knight armor statue, because Filch also moved very fast.

　　 If the secret tunnel is not closed in time, Filch may find it.

　　 This is definitely not a scene that the twins would like to see, and they have a live map on their hands, so they can circle Filch in the castle.

caught?

　　 can see the opponent's movement clearly through the live spot map, can he still be caught?

nonexistent.

　　 At this time, George sneezed suddenly, and his voice rang in the corridor, which immediately caught Filch's attention.

　　 "Come on, Filch is coming over here." Fred looked at George speechlessly, and urged quickly.

　　 "What should I do now?" George followed quickly.

　　 "What else can I do?" Fred shrugged helplessly, "He chased, we ran."

　　 A game of cat and mouse has officially begun.
