The Wizard of Hogwarts is Unscientific.

Chapter 275 You dare to alarm Filch? This is courting death.

Andy never expected that he would encounter such a thing just because he went out for a walk in the middle of the night.

"What did you do tonight?" Andy asked.

Under the influence of the truth serum, Ron mechanically replied, "I didn't do anything."

"Hmm?" Andy raised an eyebrow slightly.

You went out for a night stroll in the middle of the night, but ended up doing nothing.

Are you kidding me?

"Then what are you doing out here?" Andy continued to ask.

Ron replied, "Wandering around the castle."

Just strolling around?

Andy suddenly remembered something and asked, "Do you go out for a walk every night?"

"Yes!" Ron replied.

Sure enough.

"How many days has it been?"

"Three days."

"Apart from that, nothing else was done?"

"They didn't do anything!"

Andy pondered for a moment, then took out his wand and used a stunning spell to knock Ron out, before releasing Ron from his restraints.

There's nothing more to ask.

Clearly, Voldemort has already begun his operation.

Moreover, it was a high-profile operation.

Andy had long ago determined that the ghosts and portraits in Hogwarts Castle were all Dumbledore's spies.

Or rather, he was the principal's informant.

The headmaster can learn about everything that happens in the castle through the ghosts and portraits in the castle.

Voldemort was able to open the Chamber of Secrets when he was in fifth grade, so he knew about it too.

Andy organized his thoughts.

Ron was Harry's roommate and best friend at Hogwarts. Ron's behavior was unusual every night, and Harry noticed it sooner or later.

Dumbledore was also in the know.

Ron did not hide his whereabouts; his actions were transparent to Dumbledore.

This is interesting.

Would Voldemort use such an obvious method to lure Dumbledore into a trap?

That would be incredibly foolish.

Ron was clearly just a decoy; his purpose was to lure Harry out.

If the Horcrux's intelligence is still within the range of a normal person, he should understand that Harry is different to Dumbledore.

Are we using Harry to distract Dumbledore?

"Sigh! If only I had seen the second Harry Potter book!" Andy said, somewhat distressed.

If the story proceeds as normal, Voldemort's Horcruxes should be the boss of the second movie.

But the Horcrux only contained fragments of Voldemort's soul.

Andy could not determine the intelligence level of a soul fragment, nor could he judge the logic behind its behavior.

Moreover, even Voldemort himself was in a somewhat abnormal mental state.

Andy glanced at the unconscious Ron, murmured "Good luck," and then turned and walked out of the classroom.

Let this kid take a nap here!

……

One night passed.

The next day, everything in the castle returned to normal.

Andy got up as usual, went to the auditorium for breakfast as usual, and hoped that some owl might deliver an anonymous letter to him, trying to win him over or something.

The result... of course, was no!

Ron had also returned to normal, chatting and laughing with Harry all the way to the Great Hall, looking no different from his usual self.

Hogwarts had another ordinary day.

As night fell, Andy cast a Disillusionment spell to conceal his form and left the dormitory alone.

The entrance to Gryffindor's dormitory was also on the eighth floor. Andy waited in the corner of the corridor, using the shadows to hide himself better.

After waiting for about fifteen minutes, the portrait of the fat woman was pushed open, and Ron walked out from inside with a blank expression.

"It's you again, Ron Weasley!"

Upon seeing this, the fat woman burst into a tirade, "You're out out every night, and if you keep deducting points from Gryffindor, I'll never let you in again!"

Thank you, Ms. Ravenclaw!

Andy suddenly felt a little fortunate; the entrance to the Ravenclaw lounge was a bronze door knocker shaped like an eagle, and he could enter simply by answering a question correctly.

In this way, as long as Andy uses the Disillusionment Charm, no one will know that Andy is out for a night stroll.

Andy glanced at Ron.

Ron looked somewhat dazed. He walked past Andy expressionlessly and then turned into another corridor.

Andy was about to follow when he saw the portrait of the fat woman be pushed aside again. But this time, no one came out.

The plump woman grew even angrier. "It's you, isn't it? Harry Potter? If you dare to play tricks on me again, I'll never let you in again!"

That's a really loud voice!

Harry lifted the Invisibility Cloak, revealing only his head.

"Shhh, keep your voice down."

Harry looked flustered. "Fat woman, have you seen Ron go out?"

"What are you two doing?" the fat woman said, somewhat annoyed.

Harry pressed, "Which way did Ron go?"

"How should I know?" the fat woman said irritably, then slammed the door shut, closed her eyes, and made a gesture as if she didn't want to talk to anyone.

Harry had no choice but to put on the Invisibility Cloak and leave.

Andy: "..."

To be honest, with that loud voice of the fat woman, the entire eighth floor should have been able to hear her in the dead of night.

They might even be able to hear it from the seventh floor.

Given all this, why are you still wearing an invisibility cloak?

After Harry passed in front of Andy, Andy took out his wand and gently tapped the ground.

Harry left a faint trail of footprints where he passed.

Ron is unimportant; if he weren't Harry's friend, he would be of no value to Voldemort.

Now that Harry is out, Andy just needs to follow him.

Following the footprints, Andy followed Harry to the seventh floor.

Right after Andy left, the portrait of the fat woman was pushed aside again. Again, no one came out this time.

But unlike last time, this time the fat woman seemed completely unaffected—her eyes were closed, as if she were asleep.

"Are we heading downstairs?" Andy had already reached the sixth floor.

From this vantage point, you can clearly see Ron on the fourth-floor staircase.

Judging from the footprints, Harry should be on the fifth floor now.

Andy followed silently, ready to watch the show tonight.

This happened at the right time...

Harry ripped off the Invisibility Cloak and yelled at Ron, "Ron! What are you doing?"

Andy: "..."

Ron glanced up at Harry, then ran quickly downstairs.

"Ron!!" Harry shouted and quickly chased after him.

"Ron, you stop right there!"

"Ron, did you hear me? You stop right there!"

Harry chased after him, shouting as he went.

Huh...?

Andy was a little confused.

Andy didn't know how Voldemort planned the Horcruxes, but Harry's behavior... was truly unexpected.

Don't forget, the custodian of Hogwarts is Argus Filch, the most dedicated employee in the castle.

At this hour, Filch was still awake.

How dare you disturb Filch? You're courting death!
