When Harry and Draco left, it was clear that both their steps were much lighter.
As Vizet walked along the corridor, he saw Dumbledore carrying something in his arms as he nimbly jumped out through a door.
As Dumbledore landed, the door spun rapidly and returned to its original landscape oil painting.
This was a secret passage that had not appeared on the Marauder's Map, though that made sense. Perhaps, like the "Prefects' Bathroom," it belonged to the "Headmaster's Secret Passage."
Because of their identities, Sirius Black and Lupin had been unable to enter the so-called "Headmaster's Secret Passage," so they had not drawn it onto the Marauder's Map.
Dumbledore seemed to have seen Vizet as well, and waved in his direction.
Vizet looked closely and found that what Dumbledore was holding was a small tray. On it were several fragrant cakes, while in his other hand he held a cake with only half of it left.
If Vizet had not seen wrong, it should have been that lemon cake.
He quickly stepped forward and greeted him. "Headmaster Dumbledore... good morning!"
"Good morning... Would you like one?" Dumbledore called, opening his arms slightly so the small tray came a little closer to Vizet.
"Thank you, but no..." Vizet waved his hand and said, "Headmaster Dumbledore, did the referee panel meet very late last night?"
