A moment later, Lin Bei suddenly spoke to Dumbledore.

"If you don't want to be ruined, this seems to be the only feasible way."

Dumbledore's lips twitched slightly. "That doesn't seem right, Professor Lin."

"Do you think I don't know what people call me behind my back? Fat Myrtle! Ugly Myrtle! Poor, weeping, sullen Myrtle!" she sobbed. "Now even that handsome professor looks down on me, I don't want to live anymore!"

Upon hearing Lin Bei's words, Myrtle was floating in mid-air, crying and wailing.

Dumbledore squinted and hid to the side, pulling out a honey candy while his eyes darted back and forth between Myrtle and Lin Bei, looking on with amusement and amusement.

Myrtle was dismayed, believing that Lin Bei was disgusted with her and wanted to kill her.

Although Lin Bei was just joking.

But now, Myrtle wants to drown herself in the toilet.

And they put it into action.

"Don't be sad, Myrtle," Dumbledore comforted her. "Professor Lin Bei didn't mean to kill you out of disgust; he was just joking."

He pointed to Lin Bei standing to the side.

Seeing Lin Bei, Myrtle seemed to cheer up and became a little bolder.

She moved right up to Lin Bei, looking like a lovesick fool.

“Yes, I was just joking, Myrtle.” Lin Bei nodded and said seriously, “And don’t forget.”

You're already dead; doing this won't drown you.

I'd rather just treat myself to a big slice of melon.

Hearing his words, Myrtle became even more upset and shoved herself back into the toilet.

"Oh, Professor Lin, I thought you'd say something comforting." Dumbledore looked at Lin Bei helplessly.

"What's the point of comforting someone? I would never do something so meaningless." Lin Bei said calmly, "Look, isn't it quite interesting to see a ghost floundering in the toilet like this? Don't worry, she won't drown!"

I'm not that petty.

I was just joking.

By the way, is the concept of "forgetting everything" effective against ghosts?

Dumbledore: "..."

"I think it should work!"

"Never mind, let's not talk about that," Dumbledore changed the subject. "Are you a Parseltongue?"

Chapter 205 Grass

Lin Bei simply shook his head when Dumbledore asked him a question.

Dumbledore looked at the faucet that was shaped like a snake.

"This style is indeed Salazar's style."

Even I, the headmaster, need to find a way to crack the secrets of Hogwarts before I can get in.

But now…

Dumbledore looked conflicted.

Lin Bei looked at the faucet with amazement.

He joked, "I never expected Salazar to be such a decent person, actually putting the entrance to the secret room in the girls' restroom."

And that Voldemort guy was no different; he even managed to find an entrance in the girls' restroom!

Dumbledore was still struggling with the fact that there weren't many Parseltongues in the entire wizarding world.

Especially in the British territory, there wasn't a single one.

Even if they did, they wouldn't dare reveal it, for fear of being caught by the Ministry of Magic and thrown into Azkaban for further study.

The only thing that can be confirmed now is that Harry was turned into a living Horcrux by Voldemort through a series of unforeseen events.

But for Dumbledore, who no longer wanted to manipulate Harry into becoming the true savior or follow the prophecy, this was a difficult situation. On one hand, he wanted Harry to have a peaceful student life, and on the other hand, he needed the Parseltongue's abilities.

quite a while.

“There’s a legend about the Chamber of Secrets that’s been passed down through the ages at Hogwarts,” Dumbledore sighed.

"According to legend, this secret room was built by Salazar Slytherin before he left the school, and only he and his successor can open it."

"Legend has it that a terrifying monster lives in the Chamber of Secrets, which only Slytherin and his successor can control. When it is released into Hogwarts, it can 'purify the school' and eliminate all those whom Slytherin deems unworthy to learn magic."

"A student was murdered several decades ago."

This also led to the expulsion of an innocent student.

Lin Bei sneered, "Based on my limited understanding, I know that Salazar, with his proud personality, would never lay a hand on innocent students, no matter how much conflict he had with the other three founders."

Even if he did leave behind a monster, it would probably just be a legacy for his descendants.

"Moreover, the innocent student you mentioned violated the school rules by secretly keeping some magical animals in the dormitory that were too dangerous for other students."

He was expelled and put on trial, and that was entirely justified.

"Oh, so if that's the case, then the idea of ​​'purifying the school'..."

"Heh~ You know Dumbledore, he already suspected Tom back then, didn't he? He just didn't have any evidence~" Lin Bei said bluntly, "Salazar left behind a powerful monster in the Chamber of Secrets that was enough to protect Hogwarts from external enemies, and released it to guard Hogwarts when necessary. This explanation seems to fit his arrogant personality better."

"This is also a manifestation of you kind-hearted people, you don't know how to be flexible at all."

If it were me, I'd just take care of him secretly. You've already confirmed he was the one who did it, haven't you?"

"And in fact, it really was him who did it, wasn't it?"

Lin Bei looked at Dumbledore and said.

“Of course, Salazar might not be that noble either,” Lin Bei said, pointing to the snake-shaped faucet. “His secret chamber is definitely like the rumors say, only his successor can open it.”

"In that case, Salazar probably wants his successor to use the power of monsters to turn the tide when foreign enemies invade, and in the end, it will naturally push his Slytherin House to surpass the other three houses and become a true giant."

Dumbledore remained silent for a while before speaking again: "Well, it's good enough that Slytherin didn't intend to harm Hogwarts students."

Lin Bei pointed to the myrtle beside him.

Dumbledore: "..."

Dumbledore changed the subject, saying, "Can you open this portal, Professor Lin?"

Dumbledore looked at Lin Bei, wanting to take this opportunity to see Lin Bei's strength.

"Of course!"

Lin Bei eagerly flexed his wrist and raised his hand towards the faucet.

"Wait!" Dumbledore quickly stopped him.

"The way you're suggesting to open the entrance is to forcibly blast it open with magic?!"

Dumbledore's eye twitched violently.

"Not blow it up? I don't know Salazar's Parsnip."

"You'll destroy the castle's magical system, Professor Lin Bei!" Dumbledore quickly advised. "It's just a basilisk that's extremely weak and in a deep slumber. There's no need to gamble with the safety of Hogwarts Castle!"

Lin Bei tilted his head and said, "Don't worry~"

Pointing to his glowing eyes, he said, "The magic supply here is just an external circuit connected in series."

It won't affect Hogwarts.

After saying that, Lin Bei simply tapped his finger lightly.

An invisible wave struck the washbasin in the middle.

"boom!"

A tremendous roar echoed continuously in the washroom.

However, it could not be spread.

It was as if a silent barrier enveloped this place.

Before taking action, Lin Bei had already set up a soundproof barrier.

However, the shockwave from the explosion was unavoidable.

······

Filch, who was on patrol, clearly felt the tremor. He slowly turned around, holding a lantern, and looked towards the third floor.

"Mrs. Lorris, did you hear that?"

"Meow~"

A skinny, dark gray cat darted quickly toward the girls' restroom on the third floor.

Felch also displayed agility beyond his years, closely following behind.

······

The girls' washroom on the third floor.

A gentle breeze blew down the dust that had been rising.

Lin Bei removed the shield that was blocking his way.

Myrtle has disappeared; she's probably terrified by the scene.

Dumbledore waved his sleeves twice, looking at the large hole in the middle and the scattered stones.

The bathroom, which was originally decent, has been transformed into a Syrian-style space.

"Was that an Explosion Curse?"

"It's surprisingly useful. It's almost as good as the most advanced explosive grenades." Lin Bei looked at the large hole that had been blown open.

"This spell is quite good; it won't shoot out a beam of light that would alert the enemy. The only downside is that it's also difficult to aim at."

But for me, it's not a flaw.
