Chapter 30 Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets
"Explain, gentlemen!" Her eyes crossed across the faces of three people.
“Explain what?” Ron looked a little scared.
"Professor Snape is right. You didn't tell the truth in the office." Hermione said with unquestionable tone, "First of all, Ron, you were in the third floor of the room, Filch's cat." Just outside the door was attacked."
"You, you will not be suspicious, is that what I did?!"
"Don't say silly, Ron." Hermione waved her hand. "Professor Dumbledore said it was a very deep black magic. We couldn't cast it. What I want to ask is, you really Did you notice anything abnormal?"
"I just said it to Ai Wen. I heard a sly voice, but I am not sure. Myrtle is crying all the time."
"Maybe this is a clue." Hermione turned her head. "Harry, can you tell me what you heard at the time?"
"The voice said it was starving. It was going to kill, like a ghost. It went straight up through the stone walls of the castle." Harry whispered. "Then we saw Filch's cat being hanged by petrochemicals." On the wall, it must be the master of the voice."
"But who is that, or what it is, I didn't hear anything at the time." Hermione frowned.
"Who knows," said Harry hesitantly. "You said, should I tell the professors, the voice I heard?"
"Don't say it!" Ron replied without hesitation. "It's not a good sign to hear the sounds that others can't hear, even in the magical world."
Harry heard something from Ron’s voice. He asked, “You believe in me, are you?”
"I certainly believe it," Ron said quickly. "But you have to admit that it is bizarre."
"I know it's bizarre," Harry replied. "The whole event is bizarre. You hear a squeaky voice in the bathroom, and then Filch's cat is attacked. What are the words on the wall?" What happened when the Chamber of Secrets was opened?"
"Maybe, we should think about it from another angle. The cat was attacked. Who would feel happy?" Ron said.
"It won't work. Everyone except Felch will feel happy." Harry thought for a moment. "And what does this have to do with the Chamber of Secrets?"
"I mean extra happiness, or who hates the cat the most." Ron added reluctantly.
"Don't guess, I know some intelligence, there are legends about the secret room." Ai Wen saw that Hermione did not participate in the discussion between Harry and Ron, but instead looked at herself, he had to reveal. Things come out.
Hearing his words, Harry and Ron turned their heads together and looked at Evan in surprise.
"I think, have you seen the book "The History of Hogwarts"?"
"No." Harry and Ron shook their heads.
"Ivan, you mean..." Hermione seemed to think of something.
"Yes, that is the secret room left by Sarah Chaslet." Ai Wen continued. "As everyone knows, Hogwarts is made up of Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Roy. Narawen Crow and Sarachas Letlin jointly created the four people who worked together, but over time, the rift between Slytherin and others grew."
"Slytherin hopes that Hogwarts will be more critical when recruiting students. He believes that magical education should only be limited to purely magical families. He does not want to receive Muggle-born children and thinks they are unreliable. After some days, Slater Lin and Gryffindor had a fierce quarrel because of this problem, and then Slytherin left the school, but he left a secret room in the school, and other founders knew nothing about it."
"The secret room?!"
"Yes." Ai Wen nodded. "Reliable written records in the book stop here, but there are rumors that Slytherin has closed the Chamber so that no one can open it until his true heirs come to school. Only the heir can open the secret room, let out the horror inside, let it purify the school, and clear all those who do not have the magic to learn."
The dark classroom suddenly became quiet, and the atmosphere was disturbing.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione did not speak, and they waited for Ai Wen to continue.
"The story is over." For a long time, Ai Wen whispered.
"But, you said that the horror thing in the secret room, what is it?" Hermione hurriedly asked.
"I don't know." Ai Wen shook his head. "It may be some kind of monster, only Slytherin's heirs can control it."
"It's very much in line with Slytherin's style. I already knew that Sarah Slytherin was a perverted old madman," Ron continued. "But I don't know if he came up with this purebred slang, even white. Give me money, I don't go to his college. To be honest, if the cap was put in Slytherin, I wouldn't say anything, just go home by train and see what it is in that college. People."
"Wait!" Hermione's voice jerked up. "Think about the words on the wall. The secret room was opened by the successor. And Harry just heard what sound, if Filch was in the secret room. The horror thing is petrified, then..."
She can't say it anymore, and the other three people know what she means.
"It can't be Harry. If you want me to say it, the successor must be Malfoy. Their whole family is pure blood. Maybe he happens to be a descendant of Sarah Chaslin."
"Don't think about it, Hermione, Harry has been with us all the time, he has no time." Ai Wen also said.
"I know, I certainly believe in Harry, but this is very strange, isn't it, he can hear the sound we can't hear." Hermione turned her eyes back to Ai Wen. "If you say it, you haven't explained it yet." Why have you been trying to break into the washroom of Myrtle recently?"
Seeing three people with a very interested expression, Evan had a bad voice, he didn't want to drop a peek into the girl's bathroom, especially the peeked object or the crying myrtle.
"Okay, okay, I am telling the truth." Ai Wen smiled bitterly. "In fact, apart from the secret room, I have mastered other information."
"What is it?" the three men asked in unison.
"You know, in order to prepare articles for the newspaper history section, I went to the library and read the "Hogwarts Calendar of Events"." Evanton gave a moment. "I found a book fifty years ago." The newspaper clippings, which said that the secret room was opened!"
"What?! Who opened it?"
"I don't know, I didn't write it inside." Ai Wen shook his head. "The above is related to the secret room. It is still written by hand, but the news on the newspaper clipping is a girl named Mettle Warren because of a The accident died, although it is not sure whether her death and the secret room have anything to do with, but the girl is..."
Ai Wen took out a yellowed newspaper from the clothes, which was a news introduction at the time, with a picture of a girl.
"This is... crying myrtle!!!"
"Yes, it's her." Ai Wen quickly said, "So, I want to ask her if she noticed anything."
