Chapter 82: The beginning of fear

Driven by several things in succession, at the beginning of the new semester, Hogwarts fell into a strange, oppressive atmosphere.
Ai Wen has a feeling that several people around him are gradually rushing.
The first was Neville, who was completely scared by Snape.
In the third class of potions at the third grade, he was punished by Snape for two months of confinement on the grounds that he did not peel the figs and threw them into the raft. But in fact everyone knows what is going on, Snape is revenge. From there, when Neville saw Snape, he would be involuntarily pale and cold.
Next is Hagrid, who seems to have lost confidence.
Now in the Magical Biology class, students learn how to take care of Flobo caterpillars in a class: a ten-inch long, round, dark brown, squirming worm. The existence of this creature is almost completely meaningless. Apart from eating, they always stay alone and do nothing.
Once again, Harry, he is now more and more afraid of divination.
Professor Trelawney always looked at him with tearful eyes. Unexpected prophecy was spread throughout the school. No matter who, no matter what time, as soon as he spoke to Harry, their voice became light. As if he had stopped working in bed.
In addition, he was worried about his own visit to Hogsmeade, and Professor McGonagall rejected his application. This means that he is likely to be the only third-year student to visit Japan at Hogmund.
More worried than Harry, Colin and Ginny.
They are fully convinced of Professor Trelawney's death prophecy, and in their eyes, Evan and Harry may fall down at any time. Therefore, two people collected a lot of things that were said to be able to ward off evil and break the curse, and most of them were popular items in the castle during the semester of the snakes.
As for Hermione, she is getting more and more nervous.
This is mainly because she chose too many classes, her body and spirit have been overloaded for a long time, and she has reached her limit. Ai Wen saw that her bag contained more than ten magic books every day. He wondered if Hermione would faint in this way.
Finally, Ron, he has always been suspicious.
After several attempts to attack the streaks in Crookshan, he was always guarding the cat. He showed the streaks to everyone, and it is now skinny and skinny.
In Ai Wen's view, the reason why the streaks became this appearance has nothing to do with Crookshan.
The little dwarf Peter must know that the real reason for Black's escape from prison is to find his own revenge. After all, he sold the Porter couple. He was afraid, and as Black moved closer to Hogwarts, panic gradually occupied his brain.
He wants to run away, but he doesn't know where to go.
Hogwarts Castle is currently the safest place, and there are so many horrible dementors guarding the outside. It stands to reason that Black has no reason to break in, but since the other side can escape from Azkaban, then entering Hogwarts seems to be only a matter of time.
The mental torment made the little dwarf Peter become very embarrassing.
In fact, not only a few of them, Ivan is also busy during this time.
In addition to preparing newspaper articles, he focused his energies on the potion, which he prepared for the little dwarf Peter. A tracking agent he found on "Powerful Pharmacy", as long as Peter takes this medicine, within a certain range, he can sense its position with special magic.
In this way, you don't have to worry about him becoming a mouse to escape.
Ai Wen’s plan is to mix this tracking agent in the mouse tonic, and I believe Ron will let the streaks drink. The only problem now is that the tanning process is too time consuming, and although he has already made enough preparations, the pharmacy can only be completed on Halloween.
On Halloween, Harry pitifully sent Ron and Hermione to Hogmund.
Ai Wen refused Colin's suggestion to play the wizard chess. He ran to the eighth floor of the castle alone. After seeing no one pay attention to himself, he quickly walked back and forth three times in front of a wall and entered the room.
The room he requested was similar to the Snape office. The central long table was filled with glassware of various shapes, two tin enamels and a heating device, and the cabinets on both sides were filled with medicinal materials.
These things are all bought by Ai Wen from Diagonal Lane. Since last year, he has been here to curb the pharmacy he needs, review the contents of the potion class in advance, and so on.
Long practice has made Ai Wen's technique very skilled.
He placed the prepared materials in the sputum in turn according to the formula above the "Powerful Pharmacy".
After about five hours, he finally finished the tracking drug, and he mixed it with his own mouse-made tonic. The potion was dark red, and the color of the mouse tonic seen in the magical creature shop was exactly the same. Ai Wen was satisfied with loading the pharmacy into the bottle. When he came out of the house, he found that the Halloween party had begun. He hurried into the auditorium.
Hundreds of pumpkin lanterns hung in the auditorium, as well as a group of fluttering bats and many orange ribbons that spewed flames, floating lazily under the ceiling, like a splendid water snake.
The food at the banquet was very beautiful and everyone looked very happy.
Since the beginning of school, the tension has been swept away. Harry seems to have forgotten the prophecy. Hermione finally did not want to learn. After Evan sent the "subsistence tonic" to Ron, the other's mood gradually improved. No longer worry about streaks.
Everything went smoothly, even Hagrid, who had not appeared recently, sat happily in the classroom.
The dinner ended with a ghostly entertainment program, and the ghosts suddenly appeared on the wall and on the table to make a line-up. The ghost of the Gryffindor’s ghost almost succeeded in recreating that he was killed. The situation of the head.
Everyone felt that they had had a good night, but less than ten minutes after the dinner ended, everything reversed.
A little bit of happiness accumulated at the Halloween party disappeared, and the atmosphere of panic re-emerged in the castle.
When the whole thing happened, Evan, Harry, Ron, Hermione, Colin, and Ginny were slowly returning to the Gryffindor Tower along the usual route. They will almost dinner. Every food has to be served twice, and the stomach is swollen.
When they reached the portrait of the fat woman, they found that the corridor was crowded with people.
"What happened, why didn't everyone go in?" Colin asked curiously.
"Maybe they forgot their passwords!" Ron said with a smile.
How is this possible? It is impossible for so many people to forget the password. Ivan saw the Pippi ghost jumping on the top of the crowd. It was very happy. He suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. The Pipi ghost only saw the destruction. And the sorrowful scene will reveal this expression, it will not be...
Before they could squeeze into the crowd, Professor Dumbledore, who got the news, hurried to him. He hurriedly went to the portrait of a fat woman. The students at the Gryffindor were crowded together to let him go. Ivan, they were more dependent. Tightened, I want to see where the trouble is.
"Oh, my God!" Hermione suddenly screamed and grabbed Avon's arm.
In front of them, the portrait of the fat woman was vandalized. The portraits and canvas pieces were everywhere on the floor, and the large canvas was completely removed from the frame.
"Professor McGonagall, please go to Filch right away and tell him to look for that fat lady in every painting in the castle." Dumbledore said quickly.
"You will be lucky!" Pippi ghost grinned.
"What do you mean, Pippi?" Dumbledore asked calmly.
"Sorry, Mr. Headmaster!" The Pippi's smile faded a bit. He didn't dare to laugh at Dumbledore. He turned to a slick tone. "She didn't want to be seen, she was messed up. I Seeing that she ran across the landscape on the fifth floor, sir, hiding in the middle of the trees, crying and saying something terrible."
"Poor thing." Pippi added a sentence, but there was no pity for others.
"She said who did it?" Dumbledore asked quietly.
"Oh, let's say, the professor's head!" Pippi's look was like holding a big bomb in his arms. "She won't let him in, he is very angry, you understand. His temper is really bad, this Sirius Black!"
