Chapter 325: “Secret Passage”
Herbology class is on Fridays in September, October, and Halloween. Jerry was in a group with Hermione, plucking the plump pink pods from a plants branch, peeling beans, and placing them in a wooden barrel.
Ron came over and said, Did you see the announcement in the Great Hall? Tomorrow well be visiting Hogsmeade!
Oh, tomorrow? Jerrys heart moved.
If he remembered correctly, Sirius would sneak into the castle quietly at the Halloween dinner tomorrow. While everyone is in the hall, he will try to get into the Gryffindor Common Room.
Its a pity I cant go with you. My uncle and aunt didnt sign my form. Harry said dejectedly beside Ron.
Harry, you can just go next time. There is also Sirius Black, who was wandering around. Hermione comforted.
Ron thought about it and said, Sirius is not a fool. He wont go to Hogsmeade and act rashly. Harry, ask Professor McGonagall if you can go this time. Waiting for next year is just too long.
No need. Ive asked her, and Professor McGonagall said I cant go without a signature from a guardian because thats the rule. Harry lowered his head.
Harry, dont worry. Tomorrow you need to bring your invisibility cloak and wait at the statue on the fourth floor. I will find a way for you to go to Hogsmeade. Jerry recovered from his thoughts and smiled.
He knew that Sirius wouldnt hurt Harry, so Harry had no problem going to Hogsmeade.
Children and adults are different. For an adult wizards, they wouldnt feel like going to Hogsmeade. But for a young wizard who has never been to Hogsmeade and has been looking forward to going, its something that they yearn for. It would be too pitiful if all the students went there and Harry was left alone in the castle.
Hence why he wanted to help Harry by sneaking into Hogsmeade.
Just a while ago, he had traded the Marauders map from the Wesley twins with various prank magic props he bought from Greece. The Wesley twins had memorized all the exits at Hogwarts, and with their current magical abilities, they could easily evade Filch.
Why are we here? Standing in front of the store, Hermione asked in a low voice.
Jerry heard the words and smiled, Because there is a secret passage leading to the fourth floor of Hogwarts Castle in this shop. Wait here for a while. I will go through the secret passage and take Harry over.
How did you know? Ron looked surprised.
From your brothers, of course.
Jerry got up and walked towards the Honeyduke store.
They never told me there was a secret passage to Hogsmeade. Looking at Jerrys back, Rons mouth twitched.
Hermione added after hearing Rons complaint, Neither did they tell you that the Sorting Hat was a Sorting Hat, not a test that would hurt us a lot!
When she entered the school that year, she would not have been so nervous if she hadnt heard Rons words. Ron remembered the pranks his two brothers had done to him from childhood until now and suddenly felt that the incident just now really didnt seem to be a big deal.
It was nothing compared to turning his favorite teddy bear into a giant spider, nearly making him an unbreakable vow at age five, and feeding him sour bubblegum.
The most likely thing that would happen is that they would never tell him that theres a secret passage to Hogsmeade, but a secret passage to the Forbidden Forest and the nest of an Acromantula.
Someones coming! In less than twenty minutes, Hermione suddenly pointed to the door of the store with a surprised voice.
Jerry was walking towards them from the door and waved at them. Although there was no one beside Jerry, Hermione was keenly aware of the shallow footprints on the ground next to him.
She knew that it was Harry who was using the invisibility cloak.
