62. Azkaban

Cold, dead silent, dark.

The huge waves slapped on the sea reef and roared. Here, there was nothing to hear. On the dim corridor, a mouse ran quickly along the corner of the wall covered with green moss and ran through the rusty iron doors.

I don’t know if it was placed for a long time or the air was humid. The iron gate was covered with thick layer of uneven red rust, and some of the spots were particularly conspicuous in color, just like blood. The rust grew at will, forming a series of strange and twisted abstract paintings.

The iron door has no window, only a hole for delivering food below. Now it is corroded by rust, so one arm can only be stretched out.

Bang--

The iron door vibrated particularly far through the open corridor. A rusty iron door and a thick, mud-filled arm stretched out from the bottom, holding the mouse that was trembling and struggling.

The hand slowly retracted, and in a short while, the biting and chewing sound that made the scalp numb and chewing sound faintly dissipated.

This is Azkaban, a wizard prison on an isolated island in the cold waters of the North Sea, a place where wizards are afraid of talking. Its horror is not the prison itself, but one of them sucks away people's emotions and leaves only endless despair, called the Dementor.

Azkaban does not need to be guarded, it is enough to have dementors.

One of the iron doors, the rusty license plate, can barely tell the number 94.

Wang Yao sat in a pile of haystacks in the corner. The rough and uneven stone walls behind him were covered with dark green moss, and a layer of water vapor was filled with water vapor. I don’t know if it was rain or sea water coming from the window holes surrounded by iron railings above the closed room. Wang Yao had to squeeze into the corner again to avoid the cold sea water.

The watch that has been adjusted displays the time at this time, 23:39

He remembered a hideous face squeezed out by the iron gate hole after being taken here by the Magical Master in the afternoon.

"0 points! 0 points they will come to you! 0 points!"

Wang Yao didn't know him, and he must be another poor guy tortured by a dementor. And he had only been here for a few weeks.

Those earlier either could not bear the torture and died, or turned into walking corpses, an empty shell.

The watch's numbers change, becoming 23:40

There were twenty minutes left. Wang Yao secretly said, hiding the watch regularly and hiding it in his wide sleeves.

"Is that a Muggle thing? Is it called a watch??" A voice came from the slanting ground, and Wang Yao turned his head and looked at a wizard in the corner of the wall.

Her whole body was hidden under a wide black robe, making people unable to see her face and figure. If she hadn't spoken, Wang Yao wouldn't have connected the black robe with women. In fact, when he was thrown into the closed room by Auror of the Magic Department, he almost thought that the black robe man curled up in the corner of the wall was a dementor.

The man in black robe remained motionless for the next few hours, and Wang Yao, who was vigilant, gradually relaxed.

"Why are you locked up? You're still wearing Hogwarts' school uniform, oh or Gryffindor College." The woman in black robe quickly changed the subject and didn't care that Wang Yao didn't answer her previous question at all.

After staring at the face under the black robe and being silent for a while, Wang Yao said: "Who are you?"

"Yeah, haven't eaten yet." The woman in black robe answered the question irrelevantly, pretending to be stupid and answered in a daze.

Wang Yao turned his head and stopped talking to him until he spoke again a few minutes later, turning to fetch information: "Dorment... does it only appear at 0 o'clock?"

"It just goes into various cells for food at 0 o'clock. Why, want to escape from prison? Let's wake up and you even have a magic wand--?" The woman in black robe stopped abruptly. You can imagine that her eyes must have been wide open under the black robe.

Speaking of which, the woman in black robe gave Wang Yao a feeling of Luna, and she was so weird. Of course, it might be her disguise. After all, being locked up in Azkaban, it was impossible for her to be a good person.

"Why do you have a magic wand!"

"Is it very strange?" Wang Yao couldn't help but ask her strangely.

"Of course! This is Azkaban. Do you think the old guys in the Magic Division will let you bring your wand in and escape easily? Not only that, any suspicious and strange things will be searched by them."

Wang Yao didn't talk nonsense to her and said anxiously: "Now I have a magic wand, what about?"

"Kid, it seems that you are only a first- or second-grade student, right?"

“First grade.”

The woman in black robe rolled her eyes that Wang Yao couldn't see: "Sure enough... do you know how many magic? Can you ride a magic broom? Stop dreaming, so what if you escape from the prison? Even if you are Merlin again, you will never be able to fly out. The dementor will keep chasing you."

"What if I leave it to you?"

"Hahahahahaha, you're not teasing me, are you? The wand will recognize the master. If the master does not die or admits defeat, it is impossible to change the master. Do you want to use your own death to fulfill me?" The woman in black robe made a bad joke, but she still didn't know it.

"Is that right..." Wang Yao narrowed his eyes without comment, and the gray line shone across his eyes.

The woman in black robe only felt cold in her body, and she was choked by saliva and coughed repeatedly, and said quickly: "Cough cough cough cough cough joke, but it may not be suitable for me."

"How long have you been in?"

"Don't change the topic so quickly, okay... It's a few days before you, about a week."

"Why are you not affected at all?" Wang Yao turned his head, his eyes flashing inexplicably. Dementors appear in groups in the darkest and dirty places, cheering for corruption and despair. Anyone who is too close to it will absorb all positive emotions and memories, and at the same time remind people of the most desperate memories in their hearts.

Harry was attacked by the dementor and remembered his mother's scream before her death.

This is also the reason why Wang Yao dispels the jailbreak. The illusory bodies are destined to Wang Yao to be weak towards them. Stay honestly, the dementors will only approach you and let you disperse hope bit by bit. After escape, they will chase you to the ends of the world without mercy and give you a fatal kiss. You will be alive, but you will no longer have memories, no longer have self-awareness, no longer... anything.

One is thrown directly into boiling water, and the other is boiling frogs in warm water.

Before finding a way to escape, Wang Yao planned to soak in the constantly heating water.

The woman in black robe kept her mysterious like her clothes. She said to him: "The grilled chicken chops you eat taste good, but they will always get tired of eating them."

"What a mysterious little guy..." The woman in black robe supported her chin and stared at Wang Yao with interest.

When the time reached 23:55, Wang Yao, who was irritated, couldn't help but stand up, grabbed a handful of hay under him, walked to the door and stuffed it into the hole below.

"It's useless, those invisible monsters can get in through any gap." The woman in black robe lay on the side of the hay, holding her head with her hands, and said lazily.

Wang Yao's movements froze, no longer doing the hay stuffing, but he didn't pay attention to the woman in black robe. He turned his back to her and slowly closed his eyes. His hearing turned into invisible tentacles and spread out to the surroundings. All information around him was sent back to Wang Yao's brain.

My heartbeat, the breathing and heartbeat of the woman in the black robe behind me, the rain dripping from the window, the cockroaches crawling sparsely through the wet stone walls, outside the corridor, carefully crawling in the distance, the faint breathing of the next cell and the vague murmurs...

Didi-Didi-Didi-Didi-Didi-

Wang Yao was shocked, and he got out of this state and turned off the alarm clock set twenty minutes ago.
