People in Hogwarts, holding scripts and systems

Chapter 163 Hogsmeade Village

Harry fiddled with the parchment and found that it was a blank, badly worn sheet of parchment.

"what is this?"

“Just our best secret!”

"I really don't want to give it to you!"

Fred and George looked at each other, as if they had finally "teased" Harry enough. Copy-and-paste smiles appeared on their faces, and George took out his wand and tapped on the parchment.

"I solemnly swear that I will do no evil."

As soon as the words fell, faint ink lines began to spread like a spider web along with George's wand, covering every corner.

The last row of large characters is placed horizontally in the middle, and the beautiful cursive characters bloom like flowers.

"Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot and Prongs present to you gentlemen the Marauder's Map."

This map shows all the details of Hogwarts, including creatures such as ghosts. Harry was surprised to find a set of ink footprints with Dumbledore's name written on them, and Filch the caretaker patrolling the second floor, and Peeves jumping around in the medal room.

What attracted Harry's attention most were the secret passages hidden underground in Hogwarts, some of which seemed to lead outside the school.

"There are seven secret passages here." Fred pointed to the thick black lines on the Marauder's Map and said, "Filch knows four of them..."

"If you want to go out, we recommend this line!" Both index fingers pointed at one of the black lines, which happened to be near them.

"One-eyed witch passage."

"Direct access to the Bee Duke Cellar."

"But you have to hurry up."

"Harry, don't forget to tap it when you're done and say—"

"The prank is over."

"Otherwise anyone can see the words on it."

Fred and George seemed to be non-staff members of the German sub-company, and they performed crosstalk very skillfully. Harry, who was confused, was directly arranged by them. In fact, he didn't know what Afro said to these two people.

The carriage carrying the laughing and talking little wizards left Hogwarts in the silver snow. Harry found the excited Aphrodite, and facing her starry eyes, he couldn't say a harsh word.

Naturally, Afro said whatever he wanted to say and did whatever he wanted to do, showing his loyal dog attributes to the fullest.

"Aphrodite, but you have the permission form."

"But this is more exciting!"

"This is not safe. If we are discovered..."

“But it’s very exciting~”

Harry couldn't stand Afro's coquettish behavior towards him. Actually, she wasn't really coquettish, she just pouted and blinked her eyes at him, and he was already completely defeated.

The two people were wrapped in the invisibility cloak and walked through the dark secret passage, pushing open the cellar stone slab of the Bee Duke Candy Store. After passing through the candy house filled with sweet fragrance, they finally showed their heads to breathe fresh air in an empty place.

Afro's heart was still pounding, and it seemed that only the heartbeat was in her ears. She was breathing rapidly and excitedly, and she looked at Harry with bright eyes. Harry shook his head helplessly.

"no next time."

She stood on the other side of the street and looked through the window that was filled with warm yellow night lights to see all kinds of goods in the candy store, big pieces of cream almond candy, sparkling pink cubes of coconut ice...

"Shall we go in and buy some?" Harry could see that the girl liked these things, so he suggested that no one would notice them even if they went in to buy some candy.

Afro still shook her head. She didn't want others to see Harry and cause unnecessary trouble.

"We haven't finished what Hermione brought back last time. Let's buy more next time."

Harry agreed on the surface, but he made a decision in his heart. Next time he must date Aphrodite in Hogsmeade village openly!

"Let's go give Hermione and Ron a scare!"

Afro motioned for Harry to take out the Invisibility Cloak and put it on again. The two people in the alley disappeared in an instant, leaving only two different sets of footprints on the flat snow.

Hermione and Ron were squatting in front of a shop. There was a sign on the wall saying "Don't try it easily".

In front of them was a box of bloody lollipops, and Afro and Harry sneaked up behind them.

"No, I don't think Aphrodite would want this." Hermione stopped Ron from giving the box of lollipops to Aphrodite. She rolled her eyes and released her hand from holding him down.

So she had some guesses about the thoughts of these boys who always surrounded Afro, but to be honest, the one Hermione was least optimistic about was Ron.

Wood has a better chance of winning than him, and he doesn't even understand his own mind!

"What about this?" Ron looked sideways at the merchandise on the second floor, which was a bottle full of "cockroaches".

"If you dare give it to me, I will throw a spider into your bed!" A gloomy and familiar voice sounded behind them.

Ron turned around suddenly, his entire back pressed tightly against the cabinet, and the violent impact caused the bottles and jars on the platform to sway left and right. Before they had to pay a huge amount of compensation, Afro decisively stabilized the cabinet with one leg lifted up.

"Harry! Aphrodite!" Hermione's eyes widened in surprise, and she growled in a low voice to attract the attention of several senior students. But the messy shelves blocked the figures of Harry and Aphrodite.

"Why are you here?"

"This is a long story, so I'll keep it short."

Everyone in Sha was waiting for Afulo's explanation. Afulo opened her mouth, but she didn't know where to start, so she closed her mouth.

"Oh, I can't explain it right now, but we are already here."

She spread her hands, then half-closed her eyes and stared threateningly at Ron as he put the bottle of "Cockroach" back to its original place.

In the end, it was Harry who briefly explained how they got out, and after hearing that, Ron exclaimed even more that he must have picked it up.

"Why don't Fred and George give it to me? I'm their real brother!"

"Because they know that the consequence of giving it to you is either being caught by Filch or being caught by Filch." Avro mocked Ron unceremoniously. Perhaps the twins knew that Ron's ability to stir up trouble would not allow him to carry forward this great cause.

Ron didn't care about Afro's joke at all. In his eyes, he and Afro had always been getting along like this.

"I believe Harry will give it to Professor McGonagall." Hermione righteously followed the principles of a good student. Anything that violated school rules should not appear in front of her.

Although they had been on adventures together, in Hermione's heart she still wanted to be a good student with both good character and good academic performance.

It's a pity that she met Harry and Afro.

"But I think this map will give us more help in the future."

For the first time, Ron saw Afro standing on his side, but what little Ron didn't know was that Afro was standing on God's perspective.
