Chapter 58 It’s you!

Ron's eyes widened in surprise. "You want to go out for a night stroll? Filch will catch you and make you clean the windows!"

Harry took out his wand and waved it gently. "I can use the Disillusionment Charm to avoid Filch, and don't forget that I can lend money. I believe Filch will not be able to resist the temptation of casting a spell!"

Ron's eyes lit up, and he didn't bother to argue with Dean: "I'll go with you."

He really wanted to see what would happen next.

Harry refused without hesitation. He wasn't going there for fun. "No, you don't know how to Disillusion, and I can't make you invisible too."

Ron was disappointed: "Okay then."

The other three roommates were the same. Judging from their expressions, if Harry agreed to let Ron go, they would go without hesitation.

Well, except maybe Neville.

Although he is also a little lion, Lu Mingfei is in his eyes.

Late at night, the Gryffindor common room was silent, and the moonlight filtered through the stained glass windows, casting mottled shadows on the ground.

Harry drew his wand, cast Disillusionment and Whispering Charms on himself, and walked out of the common room.

When he reached the common room door, Harry paused.

In front of him was a portrait of the Fat Lady. If he walked out of the lounge from the main door, he would definitely be discovered by the Fat Lady. So he had other ways.

The wand tapped the void lightly, and there was a slight sound of breaking glass. Harry stepped into the broken door and entered the mirror space.

Everything in the mirror space cannot affect reality, and if you practice to a deep level, you can manipulate everything in the mirror space to a certain extent.

Harry couldn't do whatever he wanted in the mirror space like the Sorcerer Supreme, but he could easily perform simple moves like passing through walls and moving walls.

Because it corresponds to reality, when returning to the real world from the mirror space, you will also return to the corresponding position.

Coming to the corridor of the mirror space, Harry returned to the real world.

In the corridor, the dim wall lamps emitted a weak light, trying hard to dispel the darkness, but it only made the darkness thicker and more ambiguous.

Walking around the stone statues at the corner of the stairs and heading down, Harry gradually became aware of the faint sound of a cat's meow.

That was Mrs. Norris's voice.

Coming to the corridor not far from the kitchen on the first floor, Harry successfully found Mrs. Norris under a kerosene lamp, with Filch standing next to her.

"Who?" To Harry's surprise, even though he was invisible and silent, Filch seemed to have noticed him and was looking in his direction.

Seeing Filch's alert expression, Harry rubbed his chin and thought, "What a strong sixth sense! Could it be that he's been teased by little wizards so many times that he's developed a perception ability similar to spider sense?"

From the perspective of magic principles, this is indeed a possibility. After all, although Squibs cannot cast magic as freely as ordinary wizards, there is still magic power in their bodies.

The next moment, he lifted the silencing spell and walked towards Filch.

Tap tap tap tap~
In the silent corridor of Hogwarts, footsteps rang out one after another, like the drumbeats of the night, beating the silence again and again, breaking the tranquility of the castle.

Filch's ears immediately stood up like an alert old hound, and his squinting eyes suddenly widened, with a hint of excitement and anticipation in his eyes, which was the look he would have when he smelled the scent of a student who had violated the rules.

Punishing those little wizards who could cast spells was one of his few pleasures.

Filch walked quickly towards the source of the sound, but when he got closer he saw no one. He craned his neck, turned his head left and right like a rattle, and searched the dark corridor with his sharp eyes.

But no matter how he looked, he still couldn't find the source of the footsteps.

The experienced Filch immediately thought of the Disillusionment Charm and the Invisibility Cloak, two methods of invisibility. He shouted, "Don't even think about running. I'll catch you."

He has a lot of experience, and Mrs. Norris is his secret weapon for dealing with invisible targets.

Mrs. Norris was incredibly sensitive to the sounds and smells around her.

Its pointed ears can accurately capture even the slightest sound, and its pink nose can lock onto the invisible little wizard with just a sniff.

But this time it seemed a little different. The footsteps were clearly all around her, but Mrs. Loris couldn't find the source of the sound. Instead, for some reason, she began to tremble as the sound approached.

"Norris, Norris!" Filch hurriedly picked up Mrs. Norris. Mrs. Norris was the only warmth in Filch's miserable life.

For him, even if it meant losing his extremely lucrative job as Hogwarts caretaker, he didn't want anything to happen to Mrs. Norris.

Mrs. Norris didn't get better, so Filch got timid and said, "Okay, you win. Go away now. I won't bother you anymore."

But the footsteps showed no sign of leaving, instead they were getting closer.

What made Filch even more terrified was that the surrounding environment was gradually changing.

Space was like a huge mirror, and it began to crack without any warning.

In an instant, fine cracks spread like a madly spreading spider web, tightly wrapping him up.

"Crack!"

A crisp sound of glass breaking suddenly rang out, and transparent space fragments fell like snowflakes.

When everything has settled down and the surrounding environment has returned to calm, at first glance, it seems no different from the past, but somewhere, it seems that an indescribable mysterious change is quietly taking place.

As expected, the walls on both sides of the corridor seemed to be twisted by a powerful force, constantly shrinking outward, while the walls at both ends closed together, finally forming a circular space with a diameter of 100 meters.

Filch was no longer as serious and cold as before. He was extremely scared at this moment.

This kind of powerful power, perhaps only Dumbledore can possess it?
But Dumbledore would never joke with him like that, so who was the wizard who performed this miraculous magic, and why was he targeting him?
Filch hugged Mrs. Norris tightly, and the two snuggled together, as if this could bring each other some insignificant sense of security.

Tread, step, step!
The footsteps finally stopped coming from all directions and came straight from the front, finally stopping ten meters away from Filch.

Filch's face was filled with an ingratiating smile, his mouth stretched to his ears. He looked like an overblown chrysanthemum, with a touch of flattery and fawning. Even his voice softened unconsciously as he spoke softly:
"Please, don't hurt me and Mrs. Norris! I'm just an ordinary administrator. I'm not a threat to you at all. If there's anything you need help with, just ask and I'll do it!"

His trembling, almost humble prayer seemed to really work. The air around him seemed to be gently stirred by an invisible hand, and ripples appeared in the empty space.

Then, the mysterious wizard slowly lifted the disillusionment spell, and his figure gradually appeared.

When Filch saw the figure of the person who appeared, his eyes widened instantly and his mouth opened wide in extreme shock, as if an egg could fit in it.

He subconsciously took a step back, his face full of disbelief. After a moment, he squeezed out a cry of surprise from his dry throat:
"It's you, Harry Potter!"
