Jon returned to the Headmaster's office.
His brain was now running fast and steady.
The Basilisk was obviously the first line of defence to the Headmaster's office, and if he is right, the four relics on that table would be the second, and the three portraits in that room in the tower would be the last.
The portraits of the magical world are all in a sense alive, and the portrait of the sa character can instantly go back and forth in any location of their own portrait, without any magical constraints and restrictions.
Those three portraits have a great probability to have a connection with Voldemort, this last protection may seem like just three portraits, but in fact, it represents Voldemort himself!
If he did not use the telescopic eye prepared by Aberforth to him, and just push the door directly and entered, then the next mont, it is estimated that the most powerful individual in the magical world at present, will appear in front of him, and will not even allow Jon to pick up the book & pen and run directly.
Facing Voldemort can be considered insurmountable even if Dumbledore is in this situation.
But Jon's current situation is far from insurmountable, after all, the three portraits still have not alard by anything, which ans that Voldemort does not know his office was already broken into.
This ans that Jon still has ti to plan for the next.
If Voldemort personally ca over that is certainly a dead end, but what if there is a way to make the three portraits unable to contact Voldemort?
While Jon was pondering, his hands did not stop moving, he waved his wand and cleaned up the ssy foyer, as well as the fishy blood of the Basilisk that died in the Headmaster's room.
There is a Basilisk guarding this place, which ans that Voldemort forbids anyone in this castle to enter the Headmaster's office, although the Basilisk has its own consciousness to choose who to kill and who not to kill, the magic in its eyes will be triggered as long as your gaze et its eyes, unless you know Parseltongue, otherwise any movent in the door, it will use its eyes to look at you, whoever cos in, even Snape, who is the Deputy Headmaster, is also the sa. At the mont of locking eyes with it, he would imdiately die.
As long as he cleans up the thick sll of blood, then no one will know that the Basilisk guarding the place has been killed, and still by the hand of a mudblood student until Voldemort cos to the opening dinner at the beginning of next year's academic year.
After Jon cleaned up the foyer and removed all the blood shed by the Basilisk, the sound of a door opening suddenly rang out behind him!
Jon's body froze instantly!
The mont he heard the sound, his hand slipped into his sleeve, holding a bright red feather, and then he imdiately turned to see the person who had opened the Headmaster's office door.
Hermione stood frozen outside the door, looking at the huge dead serpent beside Jon, who was also looking at the girl who was panting and had obviously run all the way here frantically.
Tricky.
He frowned, and slowly relaxed the palm of his hand that was about to be clenched, when he was about to speak, Hermione reacted ahead of him and said in an incomparably urgent tone.
"Dolohov ca back early, he is now looking for you!"
Jon reacted very quickly, he knew very well that if what Hermione said was true, if he did not deal with this situation imdiately, then he would have to face more difficult things.
He quickly patted his dirty robe, not directly using the cleaning spell, because being too clean would be more suspicious instead.
While patting his robe he quickly walked out of the Headmaster's office, then turned back and closed the door tightly.
"How long did it take you to co up to ?"
He put away his wand, pulled out the invisibility cloak, and asked in a quick tone.
Hermione also responded in a quick manner.
"Three minutes, I went to that storage room on the ground floor first, but didn't find you there before I ca up here, those moving stairs helped , it made walk a lot less."
"Did anyone see you co up from the ground floor?"
"No, I went up the stairs along the corner in front of the dormitory door, and they all thought I had gone to look for you in the dormitory. I made up an excuse for you, saying you had a bad tummy from eating a bad cookie."
Both of them now tacitly did not bother to ask why the other was here, as long as the imdiate problem is solved, there is plenty of ti to ask it in the future.
Jon directly cloaked the invisibility cloak on them, the cloak is large enough, and the two of them are only 12 years old, small in size, so even if he covers three people it is more than enough.
They ran down the stairs together, those stairs just like Hermione said, she seed to be very familiar with the way, and she led them down at a fast pace, from the seventh floor to the ground floor.
During this process, Jon took out the Marauder's Map, he had no chance to stare at the map in the Headmaster's office before, but the map was opened before he killed the Basilisk, to make it more convenient for him to look at any ti.
At this ti on the map, Dolohov's na is clearly in the location of the underground floor.
Hermione did not lie, this ti the caretaker still did not notice that sothing was wrong, and remained there waiting.
After making sure that there is still room to continue to hide, Jon quickly put away the Marauder's Map, and then grabbed Hermione's arm and ran from the ground floor towards the underground stairs.
Only when he was close to the cellar, did he put away the invisibility cloak, then without bothering to breathe steadily, he just pushed open the cellar door with Hermione breathing heavily.
Dolohov stared at them both as they walked in, and when his eyes fell on Jon's pale face from being knocked into the wall by the Basilisk, a snicker couldn't help but appear on his face.
"Not feeling well after eating expired stuff. Squatting in the lavatory for a long ti?"
Jon lowered his head "timidly" and whispered.
" I-I am sorry, sir, I should not have kept the cookie hidden that long before eating it."
"It's not your fault Smith, mudbloods are supposed to do that without wasting food. But I hate to wait for soone, especially a mudblood."
He stared at Jon with an "intimidating" expression, as if the next mont he would whip, but then he suddenly laughed again.
"But you're in good luck today, I'm in a good mood, plus your usual performance is also very good, so I think I will spare you, but for the rest of the holiday, the entire castle lavatory is yours to clean."
Only after hearing him finish this sentence, did Jon let out a long breath of relief in his heart.
This hurdle, he was considered to have muddled through.
"Yes, yes, sir."
After that, he and Hermione returned to the group of mudblood students together. No one knew what happy things had happened to Dolohov today, he was really happy and even summoned a house elf and asked the kitchen to prepare a cream cupcake for every mudblood student to add an after-dinner dessert to this night of Christmas.
