Chapter 245: steal from professor Quirrell when he is stealing philosopher's stone

Hagrid also mentions that they talked about Hogwarts and Fluffy the three-headed dog.

He also mentioned that the stranger gave him drinks while getting information out of him.

Hagrid lets it slip how to get past Fluffy, which sends Harry, Ron and Hermione off. 

They head for Dumbledore's office, only to see McGonagall, who tells them he has left for London. 

After Harry reveals that they know about the Stone, McGonagall insists no one could steal the Stone.

The trio realizes that Dumbledore has been lured away and that Snape's going after the Stone that night. 

So they decide to head out that night to try to get it themselves.

Hermione that already knows everything put on her acting skills into the action to cover up her indifference.

She just has to follow this plot carefully so that nothing would happen later.

Right around this time professor Quirrell should have already left his office and residence.

It is the best time to steal his things.

So she took the chance and told Harry and Ron.

"I have something to prepare and I will be back in a moment.

Wait for me at the great hall.

After I got my things we can go."

She said and left the trio and went straight to the residence of professor Quirrell.

She found that there are no restrictions.

So she went to search for the things.

During the last few times she noted where professor Quirrell stores his things.

Also last time she went out she bought a storage pocket bag that can fit many things.

She is not yet proficient in space magic.

So she did not make her own space bag.

She quickly took the things here one by one.

She took the money and valuables along with medicinal materials and study materials.

She put all these things in the storage bag and then carried the storage bag with her to one of the secret passages near Gryffindor.

She would put this thing here for safety.

If there is any tracing spell or something like that she would have problems with those tracers.

So she better keeps the things outside and takes them one by one slowly.

After doing all this she returned to Harry and Ron.

She brought a small soothing music walkman with her.

When Harry and Ron saw this they understood what this is.

Well Ron did not understand and Harry has to explain.

Being a muggle he knows what this is and how it is used.

The technology on earth is not that well developed.

So this thing is very big like a big case.

But it can produce smooth sound as long as the batteries have enough power.

This is to get out of the mouth of fluffy.

She knows that fluffy would suddenly wake up when the music stops.

So he brought this over just in case if she accidentally triggered a butterfly effect and got injured by that stupid three headed dog.

She is still the original person and made some changes.

She is not sure that she will be safe even after the entire thing.

So she cannot just go there blindly.

Safety first approach is the best approach instead of going blindly like Harry and Ron.

Naturally there is a small episode where Neville tried to stop them.

After Hermione curses Neville in a Full Body-Bind Curse for refusing to allow them to leave. 

They head up to the third-floor room and start their intense trip into the seven Philosopher's Stone Chambers.

They find the door ajar, and a harp on the floor. 

Harry plays the flute Hagrid got him for Christmas, and Fluffy goes back to sleep.

Originally this should have happened.

But the problem is that Harry is actually tone deaf.

So the music he made is so unbearable to listen that fluffy almost completely woke up.

Fortunately she brought out the music system and put it on the side of the corner to play.

With the sound of the music fluffy slept and they quickly moved through the trap door.

The next thing is related to devil's snare.

Here Hermione should save both Harry and Ron.

Actually Hermione solved three of the 7 puzzles for them to move forward.

Harry solved two, Ron solved one and one was solved by Quirrell.

On the other hand Ron only played chess with his half baked skill and staged a sacrifice drama here.

Well she did not care about this nonsense.

She wanted to quickly complete this and go back.

There is also something that she wanted to get.

That is the body parts of the troll that can be as the alchemical material.

As long as she kills the troll she can put it in a space bag and take it away.

But dissecting is not an easy task.

She has to be careful in the process.

She got another space bag ready.

.............

When they drop through the trapdoor, they all land in the Snare, which starts to entangle them. 

Hermione wriggles free, then, remembering what Sprout taught them about Devil's Snare in Herbology class, uses her Bluebell flames spell to break the boys free.

The next room, Professor Flit wick's, holds a bunch of flying keys and some broomsticks.

Harry, Ron, and Hermione mount broomsticks and search through a swarm of flying keys for the one which will unlock the heavy wooden door on the other side of the chamber. 

They spot it a silver one with bright blue wings and corral it with the three of them. Harry, using his skills as a Seeker, swoops in and pins it to the wall. 

The battered winged key opens the door and then flies back up into the swarm.

The next room is Professor McGonagall's, and has a large chessboard, for a game of Wizard's Chess.

The only way across a large chamber with a chess board for a floor is to play across using massive chess pieces in a massive chess board.
