Chapter 7 Midnight Duel

During the conversation with Daphne, Brian expressed his thoughts for the first time. Of course, he had to send away the little girl who was a little dizzy.

"Please keep it a secret for me and don't tell anyone, okay?" Brian said earnestly before leaving, "this is a secret between us."

"Of course." Daphne focused heavily, her mind was in a mess.

Brian sorted out his outfit, and he was going to try to participate in a midnight duel between Malfoy and Porter tonight.

The acquisition of the witness point is too slow, and he does not want to miss the possible witness point.

Although he can continue to improve his magic abilities through learning, who doesn’t want to be faster? Besides, the witness point can also enhance magic and memory, which is very useful.

Especially magic, it is a prerequisite for many magic, and it will increase with age and knowledge. However, a wizard's magic is limited, and it will basically stop growing in middle age and will decline as the body ages.

Powerful magic like Dumbledore and the Dark Lord can only be obtained through some adventures and dangerous magical transformations.

Not everyone has an adventure like Dumbledore, who can get help from the Phoenix. See what Voldemort has made himself look like!

Therefore, you should not miss the witness points, and you should save more in case of emergency needs.

The time and location of the duel are not difficult to know, because Malfoy has been boasting loudly in the lounge, turning his head arrogantly from time to time to glare at him.

So, that night, Brian walked towards the prize showroom on the fourth floor a while in advance.

After walking along the stairs for a long time, he had to be careful that he would meet the administrator, Mr. Felch or his cat, Mrs. Loris, who seemed not to be here.

In a corridor on the fourth floor, he saw Barrow, the ghostly blood man of Slytherin. He was staring in his empty eyes and staring out through the window. There he could see the tower of Ravenclaw.

"Good evening, Sir Barrow." Seeing Barrow turn his head and look at him, Brian bowed slightly to him.

Barrow obviously didn't want to pay attention to him, but just nodded slightly to him and continued to look out the window with his empty eyes open.

Seeing this, Brian didn't stay long, so he continued to walk along the corridor.

"Felch is ahead."

A hoarse and low voice sounded behind Brian, causing his steps to pause.

"Oh, thank you for your reminder, sir." Brian turned to thank him, and said in a careful tone, "Actually, I need to go to the prize showroom. Can you point me other paths?"

This corridor is almost a must-see to the prize showroom. If Filch is ahead of him, it means that Brian is likely to meet him, and that ending will not be too good.

Barrow moved his eyes away from the window, staring at him with a hollow gaze for a while, and then drifted in the opposite direction.

Just when Brian thought the bloody man Barrow was unhappy and disturbed him to see the scenery, Barrow's voice came quietly: "Follow me."

Brian followed him, through several narrow corridors, and through a well-hidden secret passage.

The ghost who has been in Hogwarts for so long always knows a lot of things that others don't know.

Brian looked at the translucent figure of the blood man Barrow, thinking that the jazz was quite friendly in his attitude towards Slytherin, although they were hidden under the empty and scary appearance, which made many students stay away from him.

But in fact, according to the senior director Emma, ​​if he can establish a good relationship with Barrow, he doesn't mind helping you scare other classmates.

Of course, don't mention blood on Barrow, as he won't like this problem.

Soon, the prize showroom arrived. Brian thanked Barrow sincerely, and saw that there was no one inside, so he walked in.

Under the moonlight, the crystal glass cabinet in the prize showroom shines, and there are all kinds of trophys, medals and statues. Seeing that there is still some time, Brian watched the trophys displayed.

Bloodman Barrow also followed, his eyes floating behind Brian with his dull eyes. The scene was really scary at night.

Brian stopped before a trophy because of the name above: t·m·Riddle.

"This is a special contribution award to the school fifty years ago." Brian identified the handwriting on the trophy, "Sir Barrow, do you know this person?"

Bloodman Barrow looked at him emptyly and said, "Yes, he is from Slytherin, and is excellent. He seized the heir of Slytherin who disrupted the school and saved the school from disaster."

"So that's it." Brian nodded, thinking that the bloody man Barrow didn't know the inside story. Obviously, Riddle hid himself very well.

Next, there was nothing wrong with it. Brian and Bloodman Barrow admired various trophies and medals. For some of them, Bloodman Barrow could always tell their stories. Brian even heard something called pride from his empty tone, and I don’t know if it was an illusion.

The door of the prize showroom was opened, and Brian looked up and the four little wizards stood dumbly at the door, seemingly frightened. He heard Neville sobbing softly.

Under the silver moonlight, the prize display room was still a bit gloomy. Half of Brian's body was hidden in the darkness, and half of his body was under the moonlight. His pale skin and a slightly restrained smile on his lips reminded people of the vampire in the deep castle.

Brian looked at himself, then at Barrow, who looked scary, and chuckled softly.

"Sorry, I think Sir Barrow has no malice." Brian added with a smile, "Of course, I should not have no malice either." He couldn't help but smile again.

Harry and Ron looked vigilant and distrustful. They looked around, as if they believed that Malfoy was hiding behind a statue and hit them hard when they came in.

Neville sniffed and lowered his head and said nothing.

Hermione was wearing a pink dressing gown. At this time, she sorted out the corners of her clothes and suddenly felt that her clothes were inappropriate. She said, "Hi, Brian."

Brian nodded slightly to him and said, "I heard about this from Draco. You know, we have been having a conflict recently. But I'm still a little worried, so come and have a look."

"But it seems that Draco obviously has no intention of coming here." He spread his hands and looked helpless.

Brian didn't care about some kind lies, at least it was good for him. The nobles were always asked to lie and speak gracefully and calmly.

The voice of administrator Felch came outside the door, frightening the four little guys.

"Oh no, it seems that Draco always does something unexpected." Brian muttered, "Come with me."

The four little wizards had no time to think, and Feinchi's voice was getting closer and closer. They followed Brian, and Neville knocked down a set of armor, and the loud noise disrupted the tranquility here.

Brian pulled Neville's arm and helped him up, pulling him forward. Through the moonlight, he identified the path and quietly led them to the forbidden corridor on the fourth floor.

"The annoying first-grade kid, I don't sleep in the middle of the night!" When they turned a corner and saw the pimp who was throwing a pile of parchment paper around, he giggled and shouted.

"No, don't, Pipi Ghost, don't shout, please." Ron hurriedly wanted to grab Pipi Ghost's feet, but grabbed it.

Brian looked around for a moment, wondering if Bloodman Barrow was following them, he might have been invisible when everyone was panicking.

"Sir Barrow, I think you mind discipline Pipi?" Brian looked around with earnest eyes.

"What?" Pipi Ghost trembled, he looked around, and then said in anger, "You dare to lie to me, I want--"

Bloodman Barrow appeared behind him. He picked up the back of the Pippi Ghost's neck and made the Pippi Ghost's shouting come to an abrupt end.

Barrow nodded slightly to Brian and disappeared into the wall with the Pipi ghost.

Pipi Ghost said sarcastically: "No, I was wrong, sir, sir, spare the poor Pipi Ghost..."

Pipi's eyes are always filled with panic at this moment, with hands and feet dancing desperately trying to catch something. His pitiful and miserable appearance is like a good woman dragged away by a bully.

"Oh, good job!" Ron praised happily.

"Go quickly, Felch will probably find this place too." Brian whispered, and stopped in front of a door with several people.

"Where are we?" Harry looked around.

"I don't know, to be honest, I'm not familiar with the road here." Brian pulled out his wand and knocked on the door lock and said, "Alaho's hole open."

The door opened, and Brian walked inside and saw the big dog with three heads. Six of them looked over with vicious eyes, three mouths drooled, let out a deafening roar, and then rushed over.

Harry and his friends also saw this scene when they walked in. They escaped tremblingly. Brian didn't bother with anything. He slammed the door with a "slap" and isolated the big dog inside the door.

The few people continued to wander around for a long time, and then they got rid of Felch before Brian said goodbye to them.

"The dog should be guarding something. I saw a trap door under it." Before parting, Brian said to them, "Don't try to explore it."
