Chapter 70: Don't Worry, the Professor Can Handle It

Ivan nodded indifferently; he hadn't planned to do anything anyway.

As they returned to Hogwarts Castle, Dumbledore suddenly stopped and gently patted Harry on the shoulder.

"You three go back to the dormitory. The matters ahead are not suitable for your involvement."

Fudge nodded. Since they were already here, he wasn't worried that Ivan and the others would go and spread any rumors.

After the group split up, Ivan walked down the corridor leading to the Gryffindor common room. Harry, Hermione, and Ron all looked worried.

"What if the Three-Headed Dog on the fourth floor is discovered by Minister Fudge? Will Professor Dumbledore be dismissed?" Harry said.

"Don't worry, the professor can handle it", Ivan said confidently. He didn't think Dumbledore was so easy to deal with.

Perhaps during the confrontation with Fudge, Dumbledore had already come up with a solution. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so calm the whole time.

"But I think the professor might not be able to handle it on his own", Hermione suddenly stopped and looked at Harry's shoulder.

"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?" Harry asked, puzzled.

"It's on your shoulder, there are some words", Ron said, dazed.

Ivan saw the words formed by golden light points and his lips twitched. He wanted to pretend he didn't see them, but unfortunately, he wasn't the only one there.

"This must have been left by Professor Dumbledore. It says 'Secret Passage to the fourth floor!' Professor Dumbledore wants us to take the Secret Passage to the fourth floor", Hermione said excitedly.

Harry and Ron were also very excited. They felt they could do something.

But where was this Secret Passage?

The three of them were confused and looked at Ivan. Since it was a message left by Dumbledore, it meant someone must know about the Secret Passage.

Ivan wanted to say he knew nothing, but considering he still had to study at Hogwarts, he didn't want to risk being on Dumbledore's bad side. So, he decided to deal with the problem.

"You'd better be prepared; this Secret Passage isn't easy to navigate", Ivan sighed. He didn't understand how Dumbledore had guessed he knew about these Secret Passages.

Ivan led the group in a sprint and stopped at a small corridor on the first floor, where there was a statue of a soldier holding a sword.

Ivan tapped the wall next to the statue with his wand. The soldier's statue suddenly raised its sword, startling Ron. Then, the stone bricks in the wall sank in, revealing a narrow passage.

Inside was a strange space, with walls made of brick on all sides, and the walls seemed to have a life of their own, moving and extending continuously.

As the group paused for a moment, the space to the left was completely filled and sealed by a large amount of brick. Seeing that their standing space was about to be swallowed, Ivan quickly pulled Hermione and the others away.

They moved to the right, and the terrain gradually rose. The path behind them was blocked by new bricks. Suddenly, Ivan crashed into a gray wall, and Harry almost thought he had gone mad. However, Ivan's body passed through the wall directly.

"Hurry, this hidden door changes!."

Ivan's voice came from the other side. Harry and the others realized this was similar to the situation at Platform Nine and Three-Quarters and no longer hesitated, crashing through the wall.

As they entered, Harry felt as if he had passed through a water barrier. Hermione, who was running at the back, clearly felt the pressure around her gradually increasing, becoming more solid, as if they were about to turn back into real walls.

Fortunately, Hermione managed to run out just in time. When she reached back, she felt solid walls behind her.

"What would have happened if I hadn't been able to get out in time?" Hermione asked curiously.

"We wouldn't have seen you again", Ivan said seriously.

Hermione felt a wave of fear, and Harry and Ron were also quite shaken. Just as they were vowing never to enter these dangerous Secret Passages again, they heard Ivan chuckle.

"I meant you would have been temporarily out of sight. You would have been transported to some other part of the castle."

This is Hogwarts, after all. These traps and secret doors are non-lethal. Otherwise, with so many reckless Young Wizards, the school would have shut down long ago.

Hermione glared at Ivan, and if the situation weren't so urgent, they would have ganged up to beat him up.

"Where are we?" Harry looked around.

"Of course, we're on the fourth floor", Ivan led them quickly to the corridor that was forbidden to enter.

The large wooden door was still closed, but they all knew that behind it was a fierce and brutal Three-Headed Dog.

"Harry, do you still have the Music Box I gave you?" Ivan turned to look behind him.

"Of course, it was a great gift", Harry didn't know why Ivan mentioned it, but he still took it out of his pocket.

"Right, Hagrid once said that Fluffy likes to listen to music and falls asleep when he hears it!" Hermione immediately remembered. Harry and Ron were also excited. This way, they wouldn't have to deal with the Three-Headed Dog.

Ivan nodded. With this Music Box, he wouldn't need to use a Transformation Spell to create a musical instrument on the spot.

Pushing open the wooden door, Ivan gestured for Harry to prepare to open the Music Box. However, when they entered, they found that Fluffy was already sleeping with his eyes closed.

But the noise of entering still had some effect. Fluffy's eyelids twitched, and he was about to wake up.

Without needing a prompt, Harry opened the Music Box as soon as Fluffy showed signs of movement. The cheerful Christmas song filled the corridor, and Fluffy fell back into a deep sleep upon hearing the music.

Everyone let out a sigh of relief, but they were still at a loss when facing such a large Three-Headed Dog.

"I mean, shouldn't we just give up? How are we supposed to get such a big Three-Headed Dog out of here?" Ron looked at the three heads of Fluffy, each with a mouth full of sharp teeth, and swallowed hard. He couldn't think of any way to hide it.

"Isn't there a Trapdoor here?" Ivan ignored Ron and walked straight to the Trapdoor, opening it and then using the Extension Charm to double its size.

If not for the significant increase in Ivan's magical power and spellcasting skills after the Fusion Ritual, he wouldn't have been able to complete this.

"Do you plan to just drop it down there?" Hermione was worried that Fluffy might die from the fall or cause a commotion below.

"So we need to do some additional work", Ivan said.
