Chapter 364 Starry Sky
Ron and Draco stared at each other and fell into strange silence.
"You actually traveled at night, Malfoy!" Ron said in advance to condemn him.
"Are you talking about yourself, Weasley?" Draco said casually.
There was a brief silence again, Draco spoke, his eyes shining, "Stop pretending, Weasley. We are all for the same purpose, don't talk to each other, you don't want to cause trouble, do you?"
Ron touched the potion bottle in his arms and stopped talking.
"Meow~"
A cat appeared at some point, squatting on the windowsill, bathing in the moonlight, staring at them with yellow eyes.
"Go away - go away, you stupid cat!" Ron immediately became anxious, and he drove away in a low voice and waved at it.
However, Mrs. Loris glanced proudly at him, its soft and smooth grey fur glowed in silver under the moonlight, and her eyes passed over Ron and saw Draco Malfoy behind him.
A magic wand was poked out, and the tip of the wand was flashing red.
Ron pushed Draco away, letting his wand be displaced, and the spell hit the wall-
"What are you doing?" Ron said angrily.
"I just want it to sleep for a while, do you want it to attract Felch?" Draco said calmly, "but you - stupid Weasley, let it run away."
"You are stupid!" Ron cursed softly, turned around and looked at the window, which was empty, and he looked into the corridor again, barely telling that a silver-gray shadow disappeared around the corner in the dark corridor.
Ron was panicked, and the half bottle of potion in his arms kept swaying, and sweat immediately emerged.
"What should I do?" he moaned, secretly regretting that it would be great if he brought Harry's invisible clothes tonight. He could also pretend to be a ghost to scare Malfoy, or live the map, but both of these things were under the box that Harry was pressed down.
It's too late to say anything now.
"What else can I do!" Draco glanced at Ron and said coldly: "Of course, run away quickly and wait for the arrest? Warn you, if you are caught, don't give me out--"
"You go!" said Ron.
"What?"
"You go," Ron repeated in a low voice, and waved his hands at Draco in annoyed manner as if he had just driven away Mrs. Loris, and his other hand tightly held the bottle in his arms, "Hurry up, what are you waiting for!"
Draco had taken a few steps, but stopped at this moment, looking at him with a very surprised look, his gray eyes rolled, and a strange thought came to his mind.
"You want to stay," he glanced at the door of Classroom No. 7 behind the two of them, turned around, as if he was weighing something in his heart, and then he said slowly, "You want to stay, hide in Classroom No. 7, Felch's old bucket can't open the door."
"You think too much, I'll leave now," Ron said, but his feet didn't mean to move at all.
Draco sneered, walked over a few steps, leaned against the window where Mrs. Loris was just standing, and said slowly: "Then let's wait like that, how about we wait for Felch to come?"
Ron looked at him furiously.
"What are you looking at, Weasley? Do you want me to chant an evil curse for you?" said Draco.
"You dare not, Malfoy." Ron said, nervously glanced at the dark corridor, which was quiet, but he knew that Felch would appear at most three minutes, and perhaps he had been woken up now, holding a kerosene lamp with a panting face, rushing over with a ferocious face.
How long has the time passed, ten seconds, or thirty seconds?
He has to make a decision—
"Damn ferret!" he said angrily, turning around and strode towards the door of classroom 7. Draco behind him smiled smugly, dragging his long voice and saying in a submissive tone: "Hurry up, Weasley! You don't think you're taking potions class, do you?"
Ron was so angry that he shivered all over, and wanted to chant an evil curse at Malfoy's face, but he held back, and his wand gestured in the air, trying to outline a magic text. But he couldn't calm down at all and failed twice in a row.
After waiting for a while, Draco couldn't sit still and came over to urge him, "What are you playing? Are you waiting for Felch or the night patrol professor to take us all?"
"Don't bother me, you've disrupted my thoughts!" Ron frowned and said. He failed to outline again, and half of the magic text flashed and disappeared.
Draco stood aside impatiently, looking around from time to time, listening.
After almost two minutes, the sound of climbing stairs came from a distance, and someone spoke in an excited tone: "Is it coming soon? My dear? They didn't have time to run away, I promise you-"
The expression on Draco's face became horrified, and he couldn't help but take two steps back and hide himself in the shadow. The voice was getting closer and closer. He looked at the corridor, and then at Ron, who was concentrating on outlining the magic text, wondering if he wanted to leave alone-
"Wes—"
"It's done!" Ron shouted excitedly, branding a shiny magic text on the door. The door opened silently, and could see the light pouring out a crack. He turned his head and said angrily: "Malfoy, if you talk to me in a commanding tone, I will--"
Draco kicked Ron in the ass, kicked him into the door, squeezed in, and hurriedly closed the door.
The bright light in classroom No. 7 made him a little dizzy for a moment. He pressed his ear against the cold door and tried hard to listen to the movement outside. I wonder if it was because of the magic, but he couldn't hear any sound at this time.
On the other side, Ron carefully put the potion in his arms on the ground and rushed towards Draco.
"Damn Malfoy! He actually kicked me. I've been holding you back for a long time!"
Draco turned his head contemptuously and punched in his face, "Are you crazy?" He shouted, raising his wand, but Ron had already aimed, and a collision brought him to the ground, causing Draco to see stars. Ron took the opportunity to swing two more punches at his hateful face, and Draco screamed in pain and kicked Ron away.
"This is Malfoy's reply!" he said viciously.
Ron rushed over again with his head down, and the two of them started to fight. The wand in their hands fell off.
Soon, Ron gained the upper hand based on his size, locking Draco's neck with his arms, their faces were as red as they were, but Draco was holding his breath. Ron shouted loudly: "Malfoy, I tell you, I have a temper too!"
Draco rolled his eyes and struggled desperately: "I didn't mean it... it was Fei, Felch is here..."
"Felch?" Ron was stunned for a moment, and the power in his hand became weakened unconsciously. Draco took the opportunity to break free from his restraint and breathed in big mouthfuls.
A few minutes later—
The two separated from afar, pointing vigilantly at each other with their wands, their faces full of bruises and swollen. Ron chuckled, both of Malfoy's eyes were bruised by him, his carefully combed hair was messy, and his gorgeous robe had several long holes cracked, looking embarrassed.
Although he looks bad, he is in a particularly comfortable mood now.
"According to the rules of the club, you can't make any trips when working together."
"Wait for me, Weasley!"
Draco glared at Ron with a hatred, walked up the black steps, took a few deep breaths, reached out to touch the black hanging gate, and the next second, his figure disappeared.
Ron laughed, and he said in a pleasant voice: "This robe is really good for you, Malfoy."
...
Inside the black hanging door.
Ron spit out a mouthful of green and sticky liquid, and threw the spider legs hanging on his shoulders aside, muttering, "The 17th round... I want to see, how many times are there... why are there twelve-legged spiders... I bet that Professor Hayp's magical biology class in protecting must have failed..."
After two more spider seas, Ron was able to accurately determine the position. He stepped on the raised rocks, chose the best route, and left early before the spider climbed up.
"I don't know if there are chicken legs for breakfast? I don't want to drink porridge..."
He thought without hesitation and finally passed through this rocky beach. On a platform, a golden aperture shone brightly.
Ron looked at the golden light on the platform with obsession, and there seemed to be something inside. He couldn't help but stretch out his hand, and the moment he touched the card, he became stupid-
His vision was infinitely high, as if it had become a ghost. He first saw the black hanging gate, then Malfoy, and finally saw the entire spacious classroom of Seven. But this was not the end. He saw the chaotic corridors in the castle, and then he walked through the layers of walls and kept rising. Soon, the entire Hogwarts Castle turned into a matchbox in his eyes.
And he was already in the black night sky, rising constantly, surrounded by bitter cold wind and clouds.
Hogwarts has become as big as a fingernail, and even the Black Lake is very small, as if he can drink it in one bite. The continuous black mountains come into view and fill his vision.
He saw the village of Hogsmeade that was getting smaller and smaller, with a few spots of light lit up, perhaps using Professor Hayp's magic lamp? Ron thought, but they disappeared immediately, and he was still rising, and the world below became large pieces of color. He tried hard to distinguish, the dark green one was the forest, the dark brown one was the hill, the blue one was the ocean!
He actually saw the ocean. Ron stared at his eyes and felt like he was dreaming, but the dream was so clear that he could not forget it. He also saw the brightly lit gathering area, and guessed in his heart whether it was a city of Muggles. Harry said that big cities like London had many lights on even at night...
"Is that Britain?"
Ron frowned and saw a very small piece of land, or the island, across a narrow strait, which was a huge and vast land. He felt that some of his thoughts were touched, but he didn't know what it was. He just continued to rise-
For a long time, he could only see the ocean and land.
Then, he passed through the thick clouds, worried that he would be frozen to death. Suddenly, his eyes lit up, and the golden light shone on the white clouds, reflecting a golden glow. Is this sunrise?
Ron looked at the world under his feet for the first time, looking at... a standard sphere with blue as the main body, one of its small half hidden in the shadows, it should be the night, the other half was very bright, and could see the land, the ocean, and the light clouds, which was daytime. He reached out and wanted to grab something, but he just kept moving away.
The blue sphere turned into small dots, and more celestial bodies appeared, "Moon, Mars, Venus, Jupiter... Merlin's beard!" Ron opened his mouth wide, and he saw the complete solar system, like a constellation model sold in Diagon Alley. He felt that he would never forget their location in his life.
Later he saw the constellations. He had never understood the names of these constellations before, and thought that names like "Canis Big" were all nonsense, but he really saw a big dog in the deep space of the universe, composed of countless stars, and he even saw the brightest one in Canis Big - Sirius.
The scene afterwards had exceeded his ability to understand. He saw bright vortexes, densely packed with large nets of light spots... Then he fell down, much faster than when he came. Everything he saw before was backwards, vortexes, nebula, constellations, blue planets, land and oceans, and his vision kept getting closer until he fell head-on into the ancient castle of Hogwarts.
"ah--"
