Early the subsequent morning, Ryan yawned and went to the Great hall for breakfast. Because he was too excited yesterday, so he failed to sleep well at night.

However, although physically exhausted, Ryan was nevertheless very excited in spirit. Even when he was eating, he every so often smiled.

This behavior drew Hermione's attention, who was eating next to him. "What the hell did you do this weekend? You occasionally display bewildered expressions in your daze, and then you chuckle from time to time. Are you okay?"

Hermione let Ryan go after he repeatedly assured her that he was okay. Then went to the library to study early.

Days are back on course again. Ryan is studying quietly and normally in class. He felt that it is not suitable to travel to other worlds until he has thoroughly mastered the two new abilities he has learned. After all, biting off more than you can chew is not a good thing, first master the knowledge behind a thing, then practice its skillful application on repeat to fully master it.

Besides, he showed high interest in magical plants in the herbology class on Wednesday. Even willing to stay after class to help clean up, just to stay with those magical plants for a while. After all, only by contacting these plants can Ryan absorb Crazy Dave's knowledge.

Seeing Ryan clearly displaying his affection for these plants, Professor Sprout was very happy. After all, as a teacher, she tries her best to teach her students about plants and their quirks, but she can't force her students to treat these plants with affection, it made her feel fulfilled.

So Professor Sprout told Ryan that he could go directly to her office to ask questions about these magical plants.

So, in addition to improving his abilities, Ryan found that he has made a good impression on the professor, which was an unexpected gain.

But mechanical skills are difficult to practice because the wizarding world has a very unreasonable 'repair' spell, so he has no place to practice at all. When will there be a chance?

After finishing his homework in the evening, he found many people forming a crowd by the fireplace in the common room, and the Weasley twins seemed to be demonstrating something new there.

Ryan was just about to peek up to see what the excitement was about, but the door of the common room opened and Hermione walked in from outside.

After she came in, she looked around the lounge, and then walked towards Ryan, probably looking for him to talk about something.

Ryan gave up on peeking to find out what the commotion was about, so he found a place for himself to sit at, and soon Hermione sat opposite to him, then looked around nervously. Most people in the lounge were attracted by the new tricks of the Weasley twins, and no one noticed this corner.

Hermione put down her school bag and took out a thick book from it.

This book seems to be old, with a cover of some kind of reptile leather on it.

Written on the book cover: "Rare Magical Creatures of Europe"

Hermione said: "Look, I found this."

She opened the book and turned to one of the pages. There was a picture of a three-headed dog on it. It seemed that the original author's painter was good. The three-headed dog was drawn vividly and changed its posture constantly as if it were alive. Ryan could tell at a glance that the three-headed dog on this picture looked exactly like the three-headed dog they met in the forbidden room on the third floor.

Below the picture is written an introduction to this animal: the three-headed dog, a magical creature with regional blood lineage. It has remained a mythical creature throughout the ages. Because it has three heads, it has innate advantages in detection ability, resistance to stun, panic, and faint.

This animal has a strong night vision ability, and its claws and teeth are poisonous. AND can cause hard-to-heal damage to its opponents. Multiple heads can take turns to rest, so it is difficult to sneak attacks on it. The lineage of mythological creatures makes him extremely resistant to magic and physical attacks.

"Why are you showing this to me?" Ryan asked, and then he seemed to think of something: "I swear I will never take the risk like last time. After all, I can only retreat when I encounter such a terrible creature. I can't expect luck will always take care of me. And I accidentally involved you in this last time. I apologize to you again."

"It's a good thing for you to have this in your mind, but I didn't mean that when I showed you this. Look at this paragraph."

Ryan followed Hermione's fingers and found that he had just skipped the row under the footer. Small print note: The three-headed dog can be tamed by a powerful owner. Once tamed, it only obeys the owner's instructions. It is the most suitable and loyal guard.

"We were in that room that day and saw a trapdoor at the feet of the three-headed dog. This just shows that the three-headed dog was there to protect it. What do you think will make the school take such a risk? What could be the reason to put such a dangerous animal in the school?"

When did Hermione have such curiosity? In the cannon, she was not like this even after becoming friends with Harry and Ron. Why are you concerned about this issue?

Ryan thought about the changes in Hermione and then figured it out: As a bookworm, Hermione must be very curious about the unknown. Let alone escape from such a big three-headed dog's mouth, it would be a strange thing if you didn't become curious about that animal. If it hadn't been for Ryan already knowing the answer, he would definitely be looking for information about that dog as well.

It's just that in the cannon, Hermione was not very popular in Gryffindor, and couldn't find anyone to discuss stuff with her, so this action was quite a natural consequence of him being here.

Seeing Ryan seemed to be in a daze, Hermione asked: "I don't believe you are not curious about the three-headed dogs and trapdoor. Tell me what you think about it?"

Although Ryan knew the secret under the trapdoor, he certainly couldn't give it straight away. (how can he explain, how he knows all of this?)

After thinking for a while, Ryan said: "After reading the information you gave today, the only thing I can be sure of is what the dog is a watchdog, and the thing that it is guarding must be very important, otherwise why would anyone use this magical creature to guard the door."

"But." Ryan turned the conversation: "I find it strange since Hogwarts is just a school, not a vault. How can it be used to store treasures?"

"Wait, treasures... Something came into my mind." Hermione went on: "I have been ordering "Daily Prophet", I remember the newspaper said that in summer, someone invaded Gringotts, but the spokesman of the Gringotts said that the invaded vault was empty beforehand, and the contents had already been taken out earlier. Do you think that the things hidden in Hogwarts were the ones that were taken away from there?"

Such powerful reasoning, she could even guess the truth so easily. Ryan looked at Hermione in surprise and then realized that he was a little rude. After a cough, he said: "I think your guess is very reasonable because in the wizarding world Gringotts is one of the safest places to store valuables and the only place safer is Hogwarts, where the great Dumbledore is. But those who dare to rob Gringotts may also dare to rob Hogwarts."

"What, then?" Hermione said nervously.

Ryan waved his hand and smiled and said, "Don't worry, we have the greatest white wizard of this century as the headmaster. No matter what happens, we should not be worried about it."
