Sleeping Together In The Great Hall?

Halloween.

Hogwarts is facing an unprecedented crisis. The most wanted man, Sirius Black broke in!

…

Castle entrance.

Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick faced the door and waved their wands.

The doors that hadn't been closed for an unknown amount of time closed together heavily.

The two professors cooperated to cast a spell, and the eighty-eight magic mechanism locks were activated.

The last lock fell and the lights in the castle went out one by one.

Looking from the outside, Hogwarts, which was originally blazingly bright, seemed to have a sudden power outage.

The original laughter of the students was gone and all that remained was deathly silence.

…

Great Hall.

This place was originally used for eating and holding feasts.

At this moment, it has become a sort of provisional camping ground.

The students were all lying on the cold ground in the sleeping bags that Dumbledore had conjured up.

Just to avoid the dangerous Azkaban escapee.

All the professors, including Dumbledore, will take turns guarding the Great Hall tonight.

And during the time the Professors don't have to guard the great hall they still had another task so they couldn't rest at all.

They needed to search every inch of Hogwarts where someone might be hiding.

…

Hermione and Cho came to Lucas with sleeping bags in their arms early.

And it wasn't just the two of them who came.

Looking at Ginny who lowered her head shyly behind Hermione, Lucas smiled and said, "Then let's all sleep together."

As soon as these words came out, Ginny's cheeks flushed.

Fortunately, all the surrounding lights were extinguished at this time.

Only the dim starlight from the ceiling was left and it doesn't provide enough lighting for people to notice her abnormality.

Seeing Hermione rolling her eyes, Lucas coughed dryly. He also realized that what he just said was inappropriate.

"I mean, we sleep next to each other."

This doesn't sound that good either, luckily Hermione came out to save him.

"Ginny, ignore him, you sleep next to me!"

After fumbling for a long time, they finally found a position to place their sleeping bags.

Lucas slept in the middle, Hermione and Cho Chang slept on either side of him, while Ginny was next to Hermione's sleeping bag.

The four of them got in quickly, but couldn't fall asleep for a while.

Hermione looked at the ceiling and said, "It looks so beautiful at this time!"

The other two girls followed and made a voice of approval.

The ceiling of the great hall tonight is a cosmic starry sky formed by magic.

In this dark environment, it brings a mysterious beauty to people.

"By the way, how is your body transfiguration?"

"Cough cough cough~"

As soon as Lucas finished speaking, Hermione coughed.

It seemed like she didn't want to talk about it, which made him even more curious.

"What's wrong with you? I haven't asked, what are you going to do after learning?"

The two girls shook their heads really fast without speaking.

But Hermione looked at Ginny out of the corner of her eye.

It's just too dark around, so Lucas didn't notice.

Ginny, on the other hand, was too shy and hid her head in the sleeping bag.

She didn't want to come, but Hermione forcefully pulled her over.

Certainly, if she really doesn't want to, no one can force her…

Ginny sneaked her head out of the sleeping bag, looking at Lucas through the faint light coming from the ceiling.

At this moment, all her attention was on the blond boy. As for what the others were talking about, she didn't hear it at all.

"By the way, Crookshanks has been outside again these last two days, and I haven't seen him appear for two nights~."

Hearing Hermione complain, Lucas wanted to tell her that her cat and a black dog formed a rat hunting team.

He might be chasing that fat rat somewhere in the castle right now.

In fact, it was almost the same as he guessed.

But there are no dogs, only cats.

Pettigrew Peter couldn't understand just why this fat ginger cat could always find him so easily.

The most annoying thing is that after being caught, the cat didn't intend to eat him.

Instead, he kept beating him with its paws, as if it was treating him like a toy.

Peter swears, if one day finds a chance to turn back to his human form, he'll shoot a Killing Curse on the damned cat.

Peter had just finished swearing inwardly when he was sent flying two meters away by a furry paw.

Immediately afterwards, that paw stepped on his stomach again.

And the owner of the paw is none other than Miss Hermione's pet, Crookshanks.

Crookshanks looked suspiciously at the corridor behind him.

Probably because he was curious about why his friend, the big black dog, hadn't come yet.

He was dazed for just a moment, but Peter took the chance to break free and run away through the dark corridor.

Crookshanks hissed, and quickly chased after him.

As for his black dog friend?

At the moment, he was hiding in the Defense Against the Dark Arts office dejectedly.

"Padfoot, when will your impulsive and reckless character change? Didn't 12 years of Azkaban teach you to calm down?"

The one who answered Remus was Sirius Black the dog, wagging his tail and sticking out his tongue.

"Don't think that this stupid act of yours will work. You clearly agreed to do it tomorrow night. Why did you go to the Gryffindor common room in advance?"

"Woo~"

"Looking for Harry?"

Sirius nodded quickly, he just wanted to see his godson. It's just that the fat lady wouldn't let him in.

Such a thing was done in a fit of anger.

Remus sighed helplessly after learning the whole story.

"You have alarmed everyone now, you will stay in my office tonight, and before dawn tomorrow, you will leave as soon as possible through the secret passage."

Sirius nodded aggrievedly.

Just when he was about to say something more, he suddenly changed back into a human form.

"I changed back?"

He looked at his palm and touched his cheek again.

Sirius' eye sockets gradually became moist.

"Moony, I'm back. I never thought I'd be so happy to get rid of my Animagus form one day."

Remus looked at his excited friend and patted him on the shoulder to shut him up.

If the professor on patrol heard him, both of them would suffer.

While Sirius turned back into human form, the two made plans for the future.

When mentioning the name Lucas Grindelwald, Sirius grimaced again.

Probably because he has been a dog for so long, he has forgotten what a human being should look like when he is angry.

…

At the same time.

The moment Sirius transformed back into human form, Lucas also received feedback from the spell.

Based on the approximate feedback direction of the spell, it is possible to guess where Sirius is hiding.

At this time, Dumbledore and Professor Snape came in through the door.

"Filch searched the owlery, but he found nothing."

"Professor Aurora Sinistra searched the Astronomy Tower, also found nothing."

"I came from the dungeons and found no sign of Sirius Black."

Dumbledore nodded and said, "Thank you, Severus."

"It seems that Sirius is hiding somewhere we can't find, which doesn't really come as a surprise."

"When they were in school, they studied this castle thoroughly, even better than me."

"Notify the other professors to take precautions, I believe he will not stay for long."

Professor Snape nodded in response.

Then it was conveyed to Filch behind him, asking him to help notify other professors as well.

Dumbledore was watching the students fall asleep and Snape followed behind him.

"It's quite amazing, he broke into Hogwarts single-handedly and left no trace. Headmaster, how do you think he got in?"

"There are many possibilities, I don't want to make random guesses."

Professor Snape was very dissatisfied with Dumbledore's answer.

"Headmaster, you should understand what I'm worried about, about the professor you hired before the semester started..."

"Severus, none of the Hogwarts professors will help Sirius get in, I can assure you."

Dumbledore said seriously.

"I think the castle is still safe, let the children go back when they wake up."

"Now we need to deal with another matter. We should go and have a good talk with Mr. Grindelwald, and talk to him about Sirius and Harry by the way."

Dumbledore and Professor Snape walked slowly towards the corner.

Neither of them noticed that Harry, not far away, was still awake and listened clearly to the conversation between them.

When Harry heard that Dumbledore was going to discuss Sirius and himself with Lucas.

He suddenly felt doubtful, this was clearly a matter between him and Sirius.

So he couldn't figure out why Dumbledore went to Lucas to discuss it.

Is there anything he can do about it?

Harry just felt a little jealous, but then the Curse of Desire kicked in.

No one noticed the red light that flashed in Harry's eyes, the speed was so fast that even Harry himself hadn't noticed it.

The next moment he made a bold decision, he wanted to find Sirius Black, to find him faster than Lucas.

"Mr. Grindelwald, if you haven't heard already, I would like to speak with you."

Lucas in the sleeping bag opened his eyes sharply.

"Of course, Headmaster, I have been waiting for you for a long time."

Hermione and the others also heard the conversation between the two.

He gave the two girls a comforting kiss on their cheeks then patted Ginny on the head, reassuring her that he was fine.

When Lucas, Dumbledore, and Professor Snape left the Great Hall.

He noticed that the old bee was bringing him to the Headmaster's office on the seventh floor.
