The Periodic Table of Words at Hogwarts

Chapter 331 Strange noise at midnight

"It's getting late. You should go back to your room and rest early. I still need to adjust the things I carry with me."

Zhang Qi opened the suitcase he carried with him, took out the slope modulator and the "Secret Aria" originally given to Astoria, and began to check the working condition of the alchemy matrix.

"I feel like you've changed a lot recently."

After thinking for a moment, Astoria said softly.

"You have become somewhat silent since the dementor attack. It is completely different from when you first entered school last semester."

"Ah, most likely it was because there was no one to talk to me at that time, and also because the Ministry of Magic did some uneasy things."

As Zhang Qi spoke, the movements of his hands did not stop.

“Have you ever considered where to settle after graduation?”

Gently wiping away the remaining gunpowder in the barrel with cotton, Zhang Qi picked up the removed barrel and pointed it at the chandelier in the room, looking at the clean rifling and nodding with satisfaction.

"I haven't thought about it yet, where do you want to settle?"

Astoria asked, holding her chin.

"If possible, I would like to find a place where there are not so many things going on."

Zhang Qi sighed.

"Go back to sleep, Astoria, I have to clean my gun for a long time."

After Zhang Qi finished cleaning up the Youse Aria, he carefully took out his pair of pistols.

This pair of pistols is extremely dangerous. Zhang Qi has tried his best to expand the energy input channel when designing the alchemy matrix pathway, but the pair of pistols will still overheat from time to time.

Therefore, whenever he has free time, Zhang Qi will take the initiative to maintain the pistol, just to prevent the chamber from exploding at critical moments.

"Okay, then, good night."

Astoria stood up with some regret and said goodbye to Zhang Qi gently.

"Good night".

Zhang Qi waved his hand and watched the girl close the door.

"Who doesn't long for a sweet love? But I can't put my companions in danger and ignore them. It's better to stay away from me"...

Zhang Qi sighed softly, and then slowly began to adjust the gun.

Before the situation is clear, it is better to stay away from people who should not be in danger.

This gun was very difficult to clean, and Zhang Qi spent a long time doing it.

"Phew, it's finally done."

Looking at the "Sage of Heavenly Fire" that was as clean as new, Zhang Qi breathed out softly.

"Huh? Is it almost 12 o'clock at midnight now?"

I accidentally caught a glimpse of the alarm clock on the wall. The hour hand on it was already pointing between 11 and 12.

"Ah, it looks like I spent a lot of time cleaning it up just now."

Zhang Qi murmured in a low voice, then gently placed the gun on the table, preparing to brush his teeth and go to bed.

"Gada"!

But at this moment, there was a faint sound of footsteps outside the hotel door.

The footsteps are indeed very light, and it would be difficult for an ordinary person to hear them. However, if your hearing is several times that of an ordinary person, then the sound of the floor deforming due to force is still very obvious.

"Is there someone outside? He must not be a good person. Normal people would not deliberately slow down their steps when walking."

Zhang Qi frowned, then gently picked up the gun he had just cleaned, and slowly walked behind the door.

"Hey, are you sure that guy lives in this room?"

Zhang Qi heard someone whispering outside.

"Yes, I saw it with my own eyes."

The other person's tone was very determined.

Gu Gou "This is the latest magic firecracker in North America. The explosion is not that powerful. Even if it explodes in a person's mouth, it will not hurt too much, but it will make a loud noise."

Zhang Qi heard someone seem to take something out of his bag, and then there was the sound of tape being pulled open.

"This damn yellow-skinned monkey! We can't go to the girl protected by Dumbledore, but such a despicable yellow-skinned monkey dares to ride on our heads. I must teach him a lesson today!"

After putting the firecrackers on the door, the man said to his companions:

"We'll run back after it's lit after a while. He won't be able to catch anyone anyway."

The man stood up very satisfied.

"Hurry up, light up the firecrackers!"

After the man stood up, he began to urge his companions.

"OK".

His colleague took a deep breath, and then Zhang Qi heard the sound of a lighter igniting.

"Chi Chi"!

The fuse was instantly ignited, and the two men looked at each other, then started to run away.

"state"!

Just when they were about to escape, the door suddenly opened violently and hit the firecracker provider in the face.

"what"!

Blood immediately fell out like a ball from the nose that was hit. Just when he covered his nose and let out a short scream, a hand grabbed his cheek and pinched it open. Mouth!

The boy only felt something hot and hissing being stuffed into his mouth, and then there was a sound of closing the door in the room just now...

"Boom"!

Following a loud noise, two streams of smoke with a hint of fire erupted from the boy's mouth and nose.

"Bang!"

The explosion just now knocked him out completely, so there was a fainting person on the floor, and another person who was deafened by the shock.

"Why are there always people who want to do things that are harmful to others and not beneficial to themselves?"

Zhang Qi sighed, opened the door, and asked in confusion.

"Ah, ah"...

The man who had a firecracker stuffed in his mouth had passed out, and the other man was lying on the ground, covering my ears and eyes and moaning without meaning.

"Remember, kid, don't do such childish things in the future."

Zhang Qi lightly kicked the boy who hadn't fainted, so when he was hit on the back of the head, the other boy rolled his eyes and fainted.

"Ah, now it's time to go back to the house and have a good night's sleep".

Zhang Qi breathed a sigh of relief and planned to go back to his room before anyone heard the sound and came, so that even if someone asked, he could pretend to be stupid.

"Shut up"!

But at this moment, Zhang Qi suddenly seemed to sense something, and his right hand that was originally intended to touch the doorknob gently placed it on his waist.

Just now he heard the sound of something's nails scraping against the floor.

This kind of sound has been heard in the meat factory in the western suburbs of China and in the sewers of Kwantai Alley.

"call"!

As the stinky wind blew towards his face, a half-humanoid monster whose outer skin had completely rotted, its muscles were exposed, and even its brain was exposed to the air, suddenly rushed towards Zhang Qi!

The finger bones of that thing have been completely deformed, and the huge bone claws and cuticles surround the hand. When the claws brushed against the wall, they even scratched a deep mark on the stone bricks!

"Bleach! This tnd is a licker"?

Zhang Qi couldn't help but be stunned as he looked at the figure flying towards him under the dim light.
