Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs

Chapter 54 Entering the tower by mistake

"By rotating the pattern, new parts of the map can appear, which may speed up the process of completing the map."

Lu Ke thought for a while: "I understand."

Obviously, what Slytherin said was only a small part, but he did solve a key step. For Lu Ke to find a way to solve the puzzle by himself, I am afraid it will take a year or two to try once a day.

Now that you know this, completing the test is much easier.

Even if you can't walk around Hogwarts Castle, you can still complete the map by turning the patterns.

But Lu Ke felt that other places were more important than this.

At least there's a good chance this test is a charade.

Dividing a sentence into letters like this is a standard crossword puzzle, and it just proves Lu Ke's guess.

After learning about this test for the first time, Lu Ke felt that maybe the way to pass the test was not to walk through Hogwarts Castle, because this castle had too many dangerous places that were inaccessible, such as the depths of the Forbidden Forest.

Turning the pattern with letters solved the problem, but it still took a long time to complete.

If this puzzle came from Hufflepuff, then maybe just following the steps is the right way, but unfortunately, the person who created the puzzle is Ravenclaw.

This is a witch who is too proud and advocates wisdom. If someone waves the wand twice in front of her when faced with a problem that can be solved with one wave of the wand, then this person will be despised by Ravenclaw as stupid.

Lu Ke decided to use today's writing opportunity.

He thought for a while and wrote a sentence on the parchment with the bright sapphire quill.

"The Room of Requirement."

Then the pattern of a sapphire appeared on the parchment.

It was like sapphire powder stuck on parchment, looking dazzling.

But what surprised Lu Ke was that there was not only one sapphire on the map, but almost the entire Hogwarts Castle, everywhere.

One of them was in the corner of the common room not far from Lu Ke.

Lu Ke hesitated for a moment and put away the things on the table.

He walked to the entrance and walked back and forth three times calmly.

Then a small door just enough for Lu Ke to pass appeared in the corner.

Lu Ke walked in.

Lu Ke himself felt a little strange when he walked into the Room of Requirement twice in one day, but what appeared in front of him was not a dwarf castle, but an ordinary low room.

Lu Ke took a look and found that this was not a room at all, but a corridor.

At the end of the passage is another door.

Lu Ke walked over, opened the door and left the room.

What appeared in front of him was the stairs of a tower. On the right hand side was a wooden board with a conspicuous brass knocker on it. The one holding the knocker was an eagle.

Lu Ke definitely knew this place. This was the entrance to the Ravenclaw common room.

Although it is a time when students cannot leave the dormitory, and Lu Ke doesn't know why the Room of Requirement sent him here.

But now that you’re here, it’s worth a try.

Lu Ke knocked on the door knocker.

Then a voice belonging to Ravenclaw came from the brass ring.

"What flies the highest?"

Lu Ke sighed.

He found that he was a little too confident. There was another set of rules for riddles in the wizarding world. According to Lu Ke's knowledge and intelligence, he might not be able to complete the Ravenclaw test.

But Lu Ke decided to give it a try.

"Star."

Then this small space returned to silence.

Lu Ke was stunned for a moment.

Just when he thought nothing happened, the wooden board in front of him opened with a creak.

Behind the wooden planks is the Ravenclaw common room.

A Ravenclaw student inside turned his face curiously.

"Who are you……"

Then he shouted in surprise: "Slytherin!"

Thanks to his performance in the Sorting Ceremony, Lu Ke was well known throughout Hogwarts. Anyone who saw him knew he was a Slytherin at first sight.

"Why are you here?"

A handsome boy who was obviously a prefect came over and pointed his wand at Lu Ke.

Lu Ke sighed helplessly: "Relax, I'm just a squib."

As soon as these words were spoken, the boy opposite him put away his wand with an embarrassed look.

"Um...don't you know it's a time when students can't leave the dormitory?"

Lu Ke sighed: "First of all, I didn't leave the Slytherin common room, I just walked into a small door that suddenly appeared in the corner. Secondly, as far as I know, this is the Ravenclaw common room, so Now that I’m in, it’s okay to stand here.”

The Ravenclaw prefect was speechless.

The other students who gathered around also had different expressions, and no one could refute.

All Ravenclaws are proud of this brass knocker, because it will keep out anyone who is not qualified to enter Ravenclaw. The criterion for judgment is wisdom.

This is also the reason why Lu Ke can come in without knowing the password.

"I come here with no ill intentions. If you don't welcome me, then I will go back."

"etc!"

The prefect quickly stopped Lu Ke.

Lu Ke smiled and turned to face him: "Why, is there anything else?"

The boy was stunned.

"No...it's okay..."

Lu Ke smiled, then turned and glanced at the Ravenclaw bust opposite the common room.

He walked to the center of the circular room and asked, "Can anyone give me a bouquet of flowers?"

The little Ravenclaw wizards around looked at each other.

A burst of laughter rang out from among them, and then a girl who was obviously a prefect handed Lu Ke a bouquet of pure white lilies.

"Thanks."

Lu Ke took it with a smile, then walked to the bust of Ravenclaw and placed the lily under the statue.

"Ms. Ravenclaw is a respectable wizard. May her wisdom be spread throughout Hogwarts forever."

The surrounding Ravenclaw wizards all showed serious expressions.

"May her wisdom be eternal!"

Then Lu Ke turned around and walked towards the door: "Sorry to disturb your rest, then good night and have a sweet dream."

Finally, he turned around at the door, bowed to everyone, and closed the door with a smile.

Standing at the door, Lu Ke sighed.

He had no idea why the Room of Requirement brought him to the Ravenclaw common room, but Lu Ke felt that he might have to come back a few more times.

He lowered his head and opened the Ravenclaw map. As expected, there was a sapphire next to Lu Ke. He walked back and forth three times and then walked into the door that appeared on the wall.

Passing through the passage he came from, Lu Ke returned to the Slytherin common room.
