After class, Snape once again motioned for Noah to follow him.
After arriving at the office, I threw two books at him again, indicating that he could leave.
Noah subconsciously glanced at Snape's office before leaving, but it was impossible for him to tell whether it had been robbed.
…
This kind of class routine passed uneventfully for two weeks.
Thefts from the kitchen became rarer, a little less each time, at least not when a whole chicken suddenly went missing.
So it was easily defined as a certain little wizard who failed to restrain his pets, which led to these thefts. After all, all that was lost was just some food.
The deans of their respective colleges mentioned these matters to their students for a few words but never mentioned them again.
Even the house elves have become accustomed to this.
Naturally, Noah didn't pay much attention to this matter.
It's just that his night walks have become more frequent, but by deliberately avoiding them, he has never encountered the Weasley twins who also like night walks head-on at night.
Two weeks were enough for him to figure out many secret passages in this school. With this kind of cheating exploration, except for some inaccessible areas, this castle had almost no secrets in his eyes.
Noah even found the legendary Room of Requirement.
He should have found it long ago, but who made him forget to enter the floor of the Room of Requirement when he first came to school, and he almost didn't find this mysterious classroom when he explored the castle.
It is almost impossible to find the location of this classroom using simple detection magic. Only under certain conditions will some clues be revealed.
It took Noah a lot of time.
So when Noah found this room, he once reflected on whether he had underestimated the magical power of this world.
However, the Room of Requirement lives up to its name, and there are countless treasures inside once you open it.
Whether it is useless sundries, magic items with special magical power, or books recording precious knowledge, he can basically find what he wants here, and he can also adjust the appearance of the house according to his own preferences. It is really a good place where you can study with peace of mind.
Of course, he didn't hide it from others when he discovered what happened here, but after Eve clearly realized that Noah only came here to read, she rarely came here.
The other first-year students regarded this place as Noah's territory by default. If he hadn't actively invited them, no one would come here to disturb him.
Noah also discovered an advantage of this room. It can only be opened by one person at a time. The person who opens it can decide whether to allow other people to come in. After the previous person leaves, the next person can start again.
This is very beneficial to Noah.
Especially when he made it clear that he wanted to read, this room thoughtfully prepared comfortable chairs and sofas for him, bookcases surrounding the entire house, a warm fireplace, light suitable for reading, and some refreshing drinks. All he needed was He brews it himself.
Very good. It is indeed a room where you need everything. The service is very good.
Even Keya likes it here, especially after Noah gave it some wooden climbing frames. The lazy snake fell in love with lying on the climbing frames and feeling the warmth of the fireplace.
It's countless times more comfortable than the common room.
But as the saying goes, if you walk too much at night, you will encounter ghosts. After two weeks of night wandering, Noah finally had an unexpected incident.
To be precise, it was not him, but an accident at school.
…
That night, Noah was taking Keya on a night trip.
He planned to go to the Room of Requirement to practice magic for a while tonight.
Although he could also practice in the conscious world, since he had the Room of Requirement, he would come here from time to time to practice various magics at night. After all, he can check the magic knowledge here at any time, and combined with the knowledge from No. 53 Middle School, he has made great achievements in the development of magic recently.
Of course, there is also the feeling of squandering magic without restraint which is really fascinating.
Noah admitted that he liked the feeling of using magic without restraint.
He passed through two secret passages and reached the fifth floor from the first floor. Just as he was about to go directly from the secret passage to the eighth floor, Keya stuck his head out from his collar.
This lazy snake, which usually only lazily wraps around Noah, suddenly became energetic at this moment. It spit out the snake letter and stared in one direction, as if it had seen some prey.
Noah paused and looked in that direction with his shimmering silver-gray eyes.
He increased the detection range of his magic and finally "saw" the "prey" that Keya had noticed.
A mouse with dirty black fur and fleshy red ears, nose and tail. It looks disgusting for no reason.
It twitched the tip of its nose, sniffing the smell in the air, and walked rustlingly in one direction.
But soon it pricked up its ears alertly and looked around vigilantly. Then it skillfully escaped into a secret passage behind a tapestry.
Noah narrowed his eyes, but had no intention of going up.
Yes, he was a little curious about the rat, but it was clearly familiar with the castle's secret passages, and that just wasn't normal. He didn't want to explore whether it was an Animagus in disguise or the pet of a wizard who knew the secret passages of the school, because that meant trouble.
He is just a first-year wizard, so the best thing to do is not to meddle in other people's business.
It is better to improve his strength than this.
Just when he was about to turn a blind eye and leave, he finally understood why the mouse suddenly escaped into the secret passage.
Because there are other little wizards who run out for night walks.
He must be a Gryffindor, carrying a small oil lamp, sneaking down the stairs, looking around carefully before entering the fifth floor.
Noah couldn't tell whether he was in the third or fourth grade, but this unfortunate guy obviously didn't find the mouse, but he happened to walk into the secret passage where the mouse entered.
He opened a corner of the tapestry on the wall and quickly entered through the gap in the secret passage, fearing that Filch would catch him if he entered too late.
This was not over yet. A minute after Gryffindor entered the secret passage, Noah saw the Weasley twins walking down the stairs. They also carried an oil lamp, looked at each other, and followed. They followed the Gryffindor senior and entered the secret passage together.
It was obvious that the Weasley twins were following the senior, eager to see what he was doing out there, and taking this opportunity to see if the senior had any other secret passages.
But thinking of the Slytherin who had been attacked by a mouse before, Noah frowned subconsciously.
