The fourth-floor corridor, a place where Dumbledore had strictly forbidden the young wizards from going at the beginning of the school year.
But that's just human nature, the more it's forbidden, the more the rules are repeated, the more restless it becomes.
Since the first day of school, the students have been curious about it, and many have already taken action.
The results were also tragic.
The professors had anticipated it, so every day someone would patrol there, those who were caught would be deducted five points at the least, and those who were more serious would be directly confined.
The current casualty list has reached dozens, with Gryffindor accounting for half of them.
This also led to the fact that after a week of school, the Gryffindor score column was still blank.
Thankfully, there was no such thing as negative points, otherwise they would owe tens of points.
Cedric looked at the twins in shock: "You two are crazy, Derrick is still cleaning the bathroom every night, his body smells whenever he goes back to the dormitory."
“Of course not, we're very sober." George the Bear shrugged, "Please don't doubt our professionalism in night wandering."
“Still night wandering?" Cedric's voice went up an octave.
Fred said matter-of-factly: "With so many people during the day, we have to go out at night."
“We've already investigated, the corridor guard tomorrow night is Filch, he's too easy to deal with, Lee will make some noise somewhere else, he will definitely rush over like a horny panther."
“Why me?" Wayne asked curiously, "It doesn't seem like I need to put in any effort for this?"
“Of course, it's for just in case." The twins said simultaneously, "If anything goes wrong, we need a scapegoat."
“At that time, we just need to run faster than you, and we'll be absolutely safe."
“Wayne, you're not scared, are you? You can refuse if you're afraid."
The two of them said one sentence each, their cooperation was incredibly harmonious.
This was a deliberate plan by the twins.
They didn't have any bad intentions, but if Wayne was caught, it was because he wasn't good enough, not someone else's fault.
Wayne naturally understood, so he agreed without hesitation.
The twins achieved their goal and walked away laughing and arm in arm, Cedric looked at Wayne.
“Are you really going?"
“Of course, I already agreed."
“If you get caught, it's going to be bad, you might be the next one cleaning the bathroom."
Wayne said nonchalantly, "It'll be fine if I don't get caught. Are you going?"
“I'm going."
“Then why are you talking so much, hurry back and play another round."
..
The first weekend after arriving at Hogwarts, Wayne slept in, waking up at nine o'clock.
By this time, there was no breakfast in the hall, other houses could only eat some snacks to fill their stomachs and eat a full meal at noon.
But who is Wayne?
Hufflepuff!
How can you go hungry while guarding the kitchen?
Under the respectful bows of the house-elves, he took two tuna sandwiches out of the kitchen, went out of the castle and arrived at the edge of the Black Lake, casually sitting on the lawn and eating breakfast.
The students on the lawn were in groups of three or five, walking or chatting.
In the distance, cheers came from the Quidditch pitch, and I don't know which house was training.
Wayne ate while also looking at his system panel.
There were no changes in other attributes, but the points column had more than 500 points, of which more than 400 were earned this week.
He was really lazy this week, these points were partly earned by pit the twins and to make a fuss about Quirrell.
The other part was earned by him casting spells on his roommates every night while sleeping, from five points at the beginning, to two points now.
It will likely decrease further.
The speed was too slow.
But I'm going to wander around tonight, I wonder how many points I can earn.
After eating, Wayne went to the library and borrowed a book called "Black Magic Insight: How to Protect Yourself Safely."
He saw Hermione there, the little witch was hidden behind a thick book.
Wayne saw her reading intently and didn't disturb her, so he left.
In the afternoon, he toured the entire castle, trying out all the staircases in the main castle area, gradually forming a three-dimensional map in his mind.
Many people forget the pattern of the stairs for various reasons before graduation, Wayne keenly noticed that there seemed to be a great business opportunity here.
Combining some of his previous inspirations, he already had an idea.
What he lacks now is technical ability.
He still needs to earn more points to draw, and hopefully draw some knowledge related to alchemy.
“Wayne, aren't you going to do your homework?"
Seeing Wayne walking around like a grandpa, doing nothing, his two roommates looked at him with black question marks.
“What's the rush, we still have another day tomorrow?"
“Besides, I don't have to do Transfiguration homework, Professor McGonagall exempted me."
“It's good to be talented." Toby was envious, the Transfiguration homework was six inches long...
The two of them continued writing until the evening, only half of the homework was finished. Looking at their two roommates who were about to fall asleep, Wayne took out his wand.
He was afraid that if he went out, these two would wake up and not find him, and go out shouting and expose him.
It's better to have extra insurance.
“Stupefy...”
Um, wrong, I said it wrong.
“Sleep soundly."
The light of the sleep charm fell, the two didn't change at all, but as long as there was no external influence, they would sleep soundly until dawn.
Arriving at the common room, Cedric was already waiting for him.
“Let's go."
The model student looked a little excited, he wasn't a stranger to night wandering, but this was the first time so many people did it together.
Let alone going to the forbidden zone that the headmaster had solemnly warned about.
It was simply too exciting!
Wayne's behavior was more normal, no different from his usual outings, "Calm down, what if you attract Filch."
“Where are we going to meet?"
“The trophy display room on the second floor, Fred and George should already be there."
“Let's go."
The two of them walked out of the barrel door and arrived on the first floor.
As soon as they stepped onto the first floor, Wayne's system also sent a prompt.
【Host is breaking school rules by wandering at night, points +20, points +5 for every hour that passes】
Wayne's lips curled into a slight smile.
Didn't you get that?
Coming out for a stroll every night, 20 points for free, what's the difference between that and a gift?
He'd been a good student for a week, and he was at a huge loss!
Seeing Wayne suddenly smile, Cedric was a little confused, but still reminded him in a low voice:
“Take smaller steps, Filch's cat ears are very sharp."
