"The most exciting thing is not the performance of the ghosts, but Peeves." Mateo described vividly: "During the Halloween dance, as soon as the ghosts finished their show, Peeves brought a pile of expired cheese and The spoiled food was attacked indiscriminately in the auditorium."
"Throwing it away and shouting at the same time, that hateful smell is finally gone. I am free!"
Hateful smell? What was that? Hope felt as if he had really missed something terrible.
Hope asked doubtfully: "Principal Dumbledore didn't stop it?"
Mateo said: "It was stopped, but it wasn't Principal Dumbledore who stopped him. Principal Dumbledore was very happy at the time, and other professors didn't take action. In the end, it was Bloody Barrow who stopped him."
"There's something even more exciting. Have you been to the hall when you came back?" Mateo asked.
Hope replied: "Gone."
"Then have you noticed that Gryffindor's points have bottomed out?"
Hope frowned. He really didn't notice it because Gryffindor points were always very few.
Mateo continued: "After Halloween, Peeves let himself go, playing pranks everywhere, and he also took the rotten eggs he didn't know where he got, and attacked everywhere, especially the Slytherin students, but only Gryffin With many exceptions, the Slytherins later discovered that it was the Weasley twins who provided the stinky eggs for Peeves."
"Then the people from Slytherin came to settle the score with Weasley, and for some reason the two houses got into a fight. The entire corridor was filled with balls of feces. In the end, Professor Snape deducted 200 points from Gryffindor. At that time Professor McGonagall turned green with anger and deducted 100 points from Slytherin."
Hope listened to Mateo's dancing story with wide eyes. He had just left school for seven days and had he missed such a wonderful thing?
"The most pitiable thing is George and Fred. The battle between Gryffindor and Slytherin. Their stinkers took the greatest credit, which made it impossible to walk through the corridor on the eighth floor. The smell of shit was everywhere, Fair. Qi complained angrily to Professor McGonagall for a long time, and Professor McGonagall asked them to clean the corridor on the eighth floor alone. They couldn't use magic until there was no smell. The two of them haven't finished cleaning it yet."
Sure enough, other people's pain is one's own happiness. When Mateo told the story of George and Fred's experiences, he smiled happily.
Hope also wanted to find out something about the prank props from George and Fred, but she should wait until they were cleaning the corridor in the afternoon.
In the afternoon, Hope came to the corridor on the eighth floor. There was no one here. He vaguely smelled something bad. Following the smell, Hope found the corridor where the battle took place. Hope remembered that it seemed to be The corridor leading from the Gryffindor lounge to the classroom is surprisingly quiet now.
At this time, George and Fred were washing the floors and walls with mops. The mop buckets contained spices to offset the odor.
Hope looked at the two people scribbling on the wall with mops, feeling that they didn't really want to stop the confinement.
Holding back the stench, Hope greeted: "Hey! George, Fred."
After hearing the sound, George and Fred turned around to see Hope, and happily walked towards him, as if they were hugging him after not seeing him for a long time.
Hope saw this and backed away. The two of them had been cleaning here for so long, who knew whether they would get dirty or not.
"Hope, it's so sad that you look like this, Ying Ying Ying." George said aggrievedly.
In response, Hope laughed, I won't be fooled.
This is indeed not the place to talk, Fred said: "Let's go, we will take you to a magical place."
George changed his face in a second and said mysteriously: "That will definitely surprise you."
Hope curiously followed the two of them, all the way to a place where there was a tapestry hanging with a troll club beating silly Barnabas. George walked back and forth three times on the wall opposite the tapestry. A gate appeared on the wall, and George would The door opened, revealing a gorgeously decorated lounge.
George said proudly: "How about it, it's amazing. We discovered this accidentally when we were traveling at night."
Hope looked at this mysterious room. Isn't this the Room of Requirement? He actually forgot such a good place.
George and Fred looked at Hope's stunned look and thought he was calm. They said proudly: "You only need to walk back and forth by this wall three times and think about the room, and this room will be like this." Show up and you can come anytime later.”
George thought for a while and then added: "But if someone comes into this room, you can't enter from the outside, unless you and the person inside are thinking about the same room."
Fred patted Hope on the shoulder and continued: "We have already tested it, and not only did we discover this place, but other people in the school also discovered it. There were times when we came and couldn't get in at all."
Why does this place feel like a mess? Isn't this one of the most mysterious rooms in Hogwarts? Hope thought speechlessly.
But business is more important: "I have taken leave these days and am not at school. I heard that you guys got into a fight with Slytherin. What's going on?"
George and Fred seemed to have recalled some sad memories and said sadly: "Forget it, Peeves, who had become well-behaved, suddenly started playing pranks again for some unknown reason."
"He stole our stinky egg and used it on our dear classmates. We tried our best to stop him, but because he was too weak, he was no match for Peeves."
As they talked, the two people suddenly became tragic: "The most disgusting thing is the bad students in Slytherin. They actually suspected that we were colluding with Peeves. But that was indeed our mistake. We couldn't explain it, so we could only keep silent. Take it, while fighting Peeves."
"Unexpectedly, Slytherin actually intensified its efforts and suddenly pointed the finger at us to deal with Peeves. We had no choice but to resist. In the end, we were defeated due to the favoritism of Professor Snape, the dean of Slytherin."
"In order to prevent the rest of Gryffindor from suffering, the two of us took the initiative to take all the blame and clean the corridors here."
Listening to the two people's tragic stories, Hope automatically translated it in her mind. The general meaning was that the two naughty guys George and Fred teamed up with Peeves to target the arch-enemy Slytherin. The two of them provided Various prank props, Peeves is responsible for playing pranks on Slytherin.
Other houses were completely affected, and when the incident was revealed, Slytherin became angry and went to Gryffindor to settle the score. As a result, the conflict expanded and attracted professors. The two instigators were killed as a warning to the monkeys.
