HP: I’m working on redemption at Hogwarts

Chapter 83 Night Out with Harry



On the night before Christmas Eve, Hogwarts Castle was already filled with all kinds of magnificent Christmas decorations. Twelve Christmas trees were placed in the auditorium as usual, with golden stars shining on the trees in the dark night. A hazy glow.

Qiu Zhang held the Marauder's Map in his hand and carefully stepped into the door of the auditorium. He saw no one in the empty auditorium. The dim moonlight came in through the vertical glass windows, adding a lonely atmosphere to the huge auditorium.

"Harry..."

Qiu Zhang tentatively shouted in a low voice, but in an instant, an inexplicable pulling force suddenly came from beside him and pulled Qiu Zhang violently.

Looking at Harry so close, the two of them could almost feel each other's warm breath. Qiu Zhang was a little embarrassed, and immediately took two steps back, only to find that Harry in front of him had disappeared again, and the huge auditorium was once again empty except for him.

"Autumn!"

Harry's head suddenly appeared in front of him. Qiu Zhang felt his heart stop for a moment, and he almost screamed in fright.

"Holy shit! Harry?"

Only then did Qiu Zhang realize that Harry was covered by some kind of invisibility magic. He carefully opened the blank space under Harry's head. As expected, he grabbed a piece of cloth and pulled it open, completely revealing Harry's body.

"Wow! Harry, this is amazing!"

Qiu Zhang blinked and stared at Harry's invisible clothes in disbelief.

"This is the invisibility cloak, it was left to me by my father!"

There was a hint of pride in Harry's tone, and he held his head high with a satisfied smile as if he was recalling something happy.

"By the way, Senior Sister Qiu, what do you want to see me for?"

"Yes! I mean of course."

Qiu Zhang was a little excited and immediately responded. Then he took out a piece of ordinary-looking parchment from his pocket and handed it to Harry.

"This is parchment?"

"Oh, this is not as simple as it looks."

Qiu Zhang blinked slightly playfully, and with an inexplicable smile on his lips, he took out his wand and whispered quietly to the parchment.

"I solemnly swear that I have done nothing wrong!"

The next moment, the yellowed parchment changed in Harry's hands. Dots of black ink appeared on the blank paper, and the entire Hogwarts map slowly expanded and appeared on the parchment.

"Wow!"

Harry couldn't help but be surprised, staring at the magical scene in front of him with wide eyes.

"Don't get too excited, Harry!"

Qiu Zhang held Harry's shoulder and patted him, looking at Harry closely with a serious look on his face.

"Now, I need you to hold the map tightly and keep imagining Peter Pettigrew in your mind."

The moment he heard Qiu Zhang's calm and serious words, Harry was suddenly stunned for a moment and looked at Qiu Zhang in surprise. He saw Qiu Zhang staring at the map in his hand with trust and concentration, looking forward to something eagerly.

Harry felt inexplicably strange and frowned suspiciously, but he still temporarily believed that Qiu Zhang was whispering the image of Peter Pettigrew in his heart and his hatred for him.

At this moment, the map in Harry's hand suddenly flashed with light, and Peter Petim's name appeared near the bathroom on the third floor of the castle.

"You did it, awesome!"

Qiu Zhang excitedly took the Marauder's Map from Harry's hand, his eyes fixed on Peter Petim's name on the map, as if he had found some rare treasure.

Sure enough, once the strategy in Qiu Zhang's mind was successfully implemented, she knew that Harry, the savior, would definitely succeed.

Qiu Zhang nodded gratefully to Harry, then clutched the map tightly and ran upstairs.

"Senior Qiu, Qiu!"

Harry called a few words softly, and when he saw Qiu Zhang running away without looking back, he hesitated for a moment and immediately put on his invisibility cloak and quickly chased after her.

The twisted and slender shadows of the two people intertwined on the wall. Harry was a few steps behind, following closely behind Qiu Zhang, and he quickly and anxiously shuttled between the stairs.

"Senior Qiu, what is going on? I mean, why are you also treating Peter Pettigrew..."

Harry followed closely beside Qiu Zhang, wrapped in an invisibility cloak to hide his figure in the dark night, so that Qiu Zhang could not see his nervous and slightly suspicious expression.

"Harry, I can't explain it to you. But please believe me, you and I share the same hatred for Peter Pettigrew, the traitor."

Qiu Zhang noticed the doubt in Harry's tone and opened his mouth to answer Harry, but his steps still did not stop.

"Then at least tell me, why me! Why do I have to pick up the map!"

Harry dodged and ran in front of Cho Chang to block her way, took off his cloak and glared at Cho Chang and asked with a somewhat angry tone.

"That was all my guess, Harry! Because of your uniqueness, you have a special bond with the Death Eaters and the mysterious man. Facts have proved that I guessed right!"

Qiu Zhang shook the map in his hand. Peter Pettigrew's name on it had unknowingly reached the Gryffindor lounge on the seventh floor.

Cho Chang didn't have time to explain to Harry, so he pushed Harry away and ran up the stairs at a faster speed. Seeing Cho Chang's unclear explanation, Harry was a little hesitant. Considering Cho Chang's safety, he thought for a while and followed him. Go up.

Soon, the two of them arrived at the seventh floor, looking at the long and dark corridor, which was so silent that it was unbearable.

Qiu Zhang stared closely at Peter Pettigrew's footprints on the map, which were almost the same as hers and Harry's.

Suddenly, heavy footsteps came from behind, accompanied by a little light around the corner. Harry immediately pulled Qiu Zhang to his side, covered the two of them with an invisibility cloak, and hid them in the corner of the corridor.

Professor Snape, dressed in black robes, quickly walked up from a distance. His expression was serious and solemn. He was looking at the corridor warily for two weeks. The light on the magic spell in his hand was swinging everywhere, causing the resting portrait on the wall to complain in dissatisfaction. .

"Hey, it's so bright!"

"Don't tell anyone to sleep!"

"Take away your blinding spell!"

Snape pursed his lips, furrowed his brows and put away his wand with some dissatisfaction. He looked around carefully, then suddenly seemed to feel something and turned his head to stare at the empty space in the corner.

Hidden in the invisibility cloak, Qiu Zhang and Harry were so close together that they didn't dare to breathe. They held each other's hands tightly and held each other's hands tightly. Their expressions were nervous and frightened, and their eyes stared at Snape's every move with fear.

Seeing Snape looking over, Qiu Zhang couldn't help but feel as if he was meeting his deathly black eyes. He couldn't help but straighten his body nervously and clasp Harry's hand harder.

Harry frowned slightly, but still didn't make a sound, and even squeezed Qiu Zhang's hand to carefully comfort her anxious mood.

"Snape!"

Professor Lupine's voice came from the other side, and he walked in front of the invisible two people, blocking Snape's line of sight.

Seeing Lupin, Snape glanced at him with disgust, then turned away without wanting to talk to him and left.

Soon, Professor Lupine did not stop, turned around and left in the opposite direction to Professor Snape.

I don't know if it was Harry's illusion, but he felt that Professor Lupine seemed to be looking at where he and Cho Chang were before leaving.

Soon, he turned his head and left without hesitation.
