Chapter 44: Responsive house

Ten minutes later, Matthew Wickfield came to the eighth floor of Hogwarts Castle. Baidu search, read more good-looking novels for free.

Soon, he found a tapestry with a picture of "Giant Stick Beat Stupid Barnabas". On the tapestry, a few moth-eaten monsters stopped beating the teacher who tried to teach them ballet and turned to stare at him.

Matthew ignored them, but looked at the white wall opposite the tapestry.

The legendary "House of All Requests" should be in this location-this is a very wonderful room, only when a Hogwarts student really needs it, you can enter; but when it appears, always It is arranged to meet the needs of the seeker.

As early as the first day after arriving at Hogwarts, Matthew was looking forward to visiting the "House of All Requests".

However, at that time, he still suppressed his inner desire.

After all, the location of the responsive house is quite hidden inside Hogwarts; not many students and teachers know it. A Muggle-born freshman found this place just after school started. If someone finds out, it might cause some suspicion.

And now, at least I have been in Hogwarts for a month or so...

Matthew walked to the window at one end of the white wall and turned back, then turned back to the one-person-high vase at the other end, and repeated this three times.

At the same time, he narrowed his eyes and concentrated his thoughts, whispering something in a low voice: "I need a library!"

When he turned around for the third time, a very smooth door appeared on the wall.

Matthew held the copper handle and pulled the door open with a light effort.

Then he walked in--

Inside is a very clean, tidy, and very spacious room.

Every piece of the floor was polished brightly, every bookshelf was made of oily mahogany, every row of books was neatly lined up like guards...

It was quiet all around, and the air was filled with a faint scent of book pages. Baidu search, read more good-looking novels for free.

Torches were lit on the top of the head and on the surrounding walls; like those in the underground classroom, but far brighter than the underground classroom.

Matthew clenched his fist slightly.

He succeeded!

...

Matthew walked through the rows of bookshelves and reached out to touch the spine of the thick sheepskin-faced books.

"Common Spells and Solutions"... "Outsmarting Extreme Magic"... "Self-Defense Charms Collection"...

The library that the "House of All Requests" has turned into is actually not as large as the real Hogwarts Library, and the books are obviously not so complete.

But here, you can easily browse some of the "banned books" in the Hogwarts Library that can only be found in the forbidden book area.

Perhaps, in the future, I can transfer part of the time I spend in the library to this side.

A smile appeared on Matthew's face.

The only flaw in it is probably only from the Slytherin common room in the basement to the Room on Demand on the eighth floor. Every time you come here, you have to climb the stairs for several minutes!

While thinking about it, he kept wandering around several bookshelves related to Defense Against the Dark Arts and Fantastic Beasts, turning over one book after another--

There are sixteen kinds of human-shaped magical creatures with blood-sucking ability. In addition to the five extinct ones, there are eleven kinds... Among the more common ones, they include vampires, Balkan werewolves, and dominatrix.

At the same time, some hybrid species of magical creatures and wizards can also maintain their blood-sucking instincts, such as half-vampires...so if they are combined, there are more possible species.

But when looking up the unicorn-related content, Matthew noticed one thing--

The blood of the unicorn has a strong magical power. It can help the weakened wizard to restore his strength, and it can also help the dying wizard to prolong the life. Moreover, unicorns are very rare magical animals. There is only one population in the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts in the entire UK.

This reminds Matthew that in the first plot of the original book, when Voldemort possessed Quirrell, he once recovered part of his power by killing a unicorn and drinking blood.

In other words, it is possible that the one who attacked that unicorn was not a vampire species, but a simple wizard.

A wizard who longs for power or life!

But here comes the question, who attacked Ronald Weasley? His blood is not like a unicorn, it has the effect of prolonging life.

Or is it that the attack on Weasley was just to frame the blame, and then divert the attention of the public?

There is this possibility... but it is only a possibility.

Thinking about it carefully, there are indeed many doubts in the incident where Weasley was attacked.

Why did the "murderer" attack him... At that time, he was just cleaning in the prize showroom.

If the "murderer" is because of the thirst for blood... why not attack the students who are alone, but attack a member of the "three people and one dog" group? Obviously the former has a much higher success rate than the latter.

If it is because Weasley accidentally saw something that caused the "murderer" to have to do this... Then why Crabbe and Gore, who were in the prize showroom with Weasley, were just knocked out?

Or is there a contradiction between the "murderer" and the Weasley family?

For a moment, Matthew thought of many possibilities in his mind, but most of them were not reliable...

He hoped that the "murderer" only launched that attack in the prize showroom just to divert his attention.

Because this means that the possibility of a third attack will be very low.

The lives of others at Hogwarts will not be threatened.

...

Unconsciously, Matthew has been in the responsive room for more than half an hour.

Now it is less than a quarter of an hour before the curse class.

Matthew put all the books he had uncovered back to their original positions, and then walked outside the door of the responsive house.

On the way, he suddenly noticed that there was an empty bookshelf...

The other bookshelves are full of books, but this one is empty, which is very discordant.

So he leaned over with some curiosity.

Strictly speaking, this shelf cannot be said to be empty.

It's just that, on the middle level of the bookshelf, there is a single book lying flat.

Simple book, delicate cover, yellowed paper... an old book so familiar.

Matthew narrowed his eyes.

"Long time no see!" He proactively said hello.
