That night, they set off for another night tour, heading to the corridor on the right on the fourth floor.
They squatted there all night, but gained nothing.
This situation lasted for nearly more than a month.
They go almost every day.
Every day I return without success.
Emilia was actually very happy about this.
Because she really cares about Jack and is unwilling to involve him in a dangerous situation again.
Emilia is really satisfied with an adventure of this intensity.
As things progressed, she even forgot her original intention.
Every night I go out with Jack, wandering around and playing with Norbert the Fire Dragon.
Amelia feels that this kind of life is really happy, and can even be described as "carefree".
However, Jack's feelings were completely opposite to Amelia's.
He is eager to use this matter to prove himself to his mother, Aunt Alice and everyone else!
As a result, those damn goblins were reluctant to show up!
This made him very depressed.
One night in late February.
Such a strange pair with completely opposite behaviors appeared in the corridor on the fourth floor as usual.
Emilia walked happily ahead.
As he jumped up and down, the little ornaments on his hair and the newly braided hair were flying around.
But Jack behind her had a sad and dejected look on his face.
Amelia turned her head and glanced, then laughed and took Jack's arm, pulling him to speed towards the end of the corridor.
She really can't wait to play with Norbert the Fire Dragon again!
Jack was very helpless about this.
However, he did not refuse, nor did he vent his depression and anger on Amelia.
He just let Emilia pull him and ran to the end of the corridor.
"call--"
With a gentle breath, Amelia eagerly took out her wand, unlocked the door, and pushed the door open.
However, when she actually opened the door, the scene in front of her was completely beyond her expectation.
The large, flat room that used to be spacious and flat is now a mess.
There are packaging bags of various snacks everywhere, and there are many marks caused by fire and heavy objects on the floor and walls.
As for Fire Dragon Norbert, he was lying on his back in the garbage at this moment.
"Norbert!"
Emilia exclaimed and subconsciously rushed out.
After spending so many days together, she and Norbert had already become friends.
"What's wrong with you, Norbert? My friend! You can't die!"
Emilia lay on the fire dragon Norbert and cried, "Just wait, I will go find Madam Pomfrey and come back to save you!"
After saying that, Amelia wiped her tears and turned around to rush out.
But before she could take a few steps, she was pulled by Jack.
"Don't bother Madam Pomfrey, Norbert is fine." Jack pointed to the fire dragon Norbert's obviously bulging belly and the snack packages on the floor, "Do you still remember how we got out of trouble before? Norbert.
He is a glutton and always sleeps when he is full.
This is Nobel's biggest weakness.
So Hagrid, who is usually responsible for raising dragons, never feeds Norbert too much to prevent him from disrupting his routine."
"So this is ah!"
Emilia breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Noble is fine, I'm so lucky!"
Jack shook his head, pointed in one direction and said:
"This is not good news. Emilia, look over there."
Hearing this, Amelia looked in the direction Jack pointed.
Then I saw an extra trap door appearing on the floor over there.
And the trap door has already been opened.
"The goblin is finally here!"
Jack said excitedly, "It must have figured out how to use snacks to deal with Norbert the Fire Dragon, so it rushed over, knocked down Norbert the Fire Dragon, and entered the door to steal the secret treasure!"
"Then what are we waiting for? Go and report the news to Principal Shafiq!"
As Amelia spoke, she grabbed Jack's hand and walked out as usual.
But this time, Amelia pulled several times but didn't pull.
Jack, I have no intention of leaving at all.
He just stood there, staring at the trap door.
His body was trembling slightly, as if he was suppressing the excitement in his heart, and his eyes were emitting a dull rose-red light in the darkness.
This scene made Emilia a little overwhelmed.
"Emilia, the goblin has already entered the door." Jack said with a smile, "There is too little time left for us. It is very likely that by the time we finish looking for the professor and come back with the people, the goblin will have already finished stealing.
The secret treasure is gone.
So, otherwise we should just go in and protect the secret treasure.
In this way, when we succeed, it will be more proof of our courage and ability."
"No, no, no - Jack, we can't do that, it's too dangerous..."
Emilia's voice stopped suddenly.
Because Jack had already broken free from her hand, walked a few steps quickly and jumped directly into the trap door.
"Jack——"
There was hardly any hesitation.
Emilia shouted and jumped down when she saw this.
A violent falling feeling swept over him.
Emilia felt that the passage under the trap door must be at least dozens of meters deep.
And if it was really that high.
Then she would almost certainly fall to death.
But just when Emilia was shrouded in fear, she closed her eyes in despair.
But he discovered that an invisible force suddenly emerged from below.
Supported by this force, Emilia's descent speed slowly slowed down, and she finally landed lightly on the ground.
Emilia, who was trembling all over, didn't care about her physical and mental condition and directly struggled to get up, trying to find Jack.
Fortunately, Jack did not go far.
Instead, he just stood not far away from her.
"Jack! You are so... so reckless!"
Emilia shouted and walked over, then hugged Jack's arm tightly.
Until now, her body is still shaking violently.
Jack shook his head and said:
"You shouldn't have followed."
Amelia punched Jack hard on the shoulder and said:
"What nonsense are you talking about? Do you think I am the kind of person who would leave my friends alone and run for my own life?"
"hiss--"
Jack took a deep breath.
Emilia's punch was really hard and it made his arm hurt.
However, Jack didn't have any angry thoughts in his heart, but instead felt a burst of joy.
"So... Amelia," Jack couldn't help but smile and said, "You mean, you are going to go with me?"
Amelia rolled her eyes at Jack and did not answer directly, but said angrily:
"Don't waste time! We still have to stop the goblins and protect the treasure! Let's go!"
After saying that, Emilia walked forward quickly.
Seeing this, the smile on Jack's face became even brighter, and he quickly chased after him.
In order to solve the problem as soon as possible, both of them were running at full speed.
However, this situation did not last long.
Soon, Jack and Amelia had to slow down.
Because as they moved forward, the surroundings were getting darker and darker.
Until the end, I even reached the point where I couldn't even see my fingers.
Only a long, faintly glowing single-plank bridge still spans the two ends of the darkness, like a lonely boat in the boundless waves, and also like the only hope left in the abyss.
Jack and Amelia looked at each other in understanding.
Although neither of them could observe each other's expressions in the darkness, they still felt each other's nervousness and fear.
"Now how to do?"
Emilia asked in a rare trembling voice.
The current situation is really appalling.
Emilia even felt that in the darkness beyond the single-plank bridge, there might be a bottomless abyss, or there might be a more terrifying monster hidden!
This unknown fear made her whole body feel cold!
Jack also had similar feelings to Amelia.
However, as soon as this fearful emotion arose, he used his 'courage' to suppress it.
[To be honest, I have been using Yeguo Reading recently to catch up on books, change sources, and read aloud with many sounds, and it can be used on both Android and Apple.]
"This is a mechanism to protect the secret treasure! It is a test for us! We can definitely do it! We can definitely do it..."
Jack said it over and over again.
It seemed like he was answering Amelia, but also like he was encouraging himself.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and let Emilia grab the hem of his robe, and then he boldly took the lead in taking the right foot.
"boom--"
The moment the soles of your feet come into contact with the single-plank bridge.
The only light in the darkness suddenly disappeared.
Everything returns to darkness.
Jack felt as if he had lost control of all his senses.
A strong sense of loss of control and falling swept over him, making him want to scream!
