Magic Journey from Hogwarts

However, just as he was thinking this way, his cheeks couldn't help twitching, because there was really a neat cut on the floor, which was tailor-made for him.

Harry quickly looked away from the slit.

"Then Aaron, have you found out who is the real murderer behind the scenes?" Hermione asked tentatively, "Or do you have any other clues?"

Aaron thought for a moment, then nodded seriously.

"Did you find it?" Harry slapped his thigh excitedly. If Ron hadn't knocked his arm from the side, he would probably have jumped up.

"You're overexcited, Goyle.

I just have some clues, and I'm still a long way from finding the heir of Slytherin. "Aaron said with a faint smile, feeling somewhat of a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

Hogwarts has searched for the secret room for decades but failed to find it, but he found the real clue and even knew the identity of the monster in the secret room.

Chapter 173 Telling the whole story, the gap of misunderstanding

"Can you tell us the clues you found?" Hermione asked expectantly.

"This..." Aaron hesitated for a while, and said in a deep voice: "Draco, you know that I'm looking into the secret room, so you should be able to guess it. I didn't tell you more things just because I didn't want to let you know." You blend in!

The more you know, the more dangerous you are. You are one of my few friends, and you are pure blood, so you can stay out of it. "

"We're not afraid of danger." Harry said eagerly, but thinking of his current identity, he immediately added, "Otherwise Malfoy wouldn't have brought us here."

Aaron raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Are you really Gore? Why does it feel so strange, it's a little different from usual."

"He must be too excited." Hermione smoothed things over, "You better tell us quickly!

As he said, we are not afraid of danger, and the heir of Slytherin will not attack pure blood, right? "

"Okay!" Aaron took out his wand, tapped lightly against the wall, and dense clues were revealed in front of several people.

"These are the clues I have integrated." Aaron pointed to a snake in the center with some pride, "First of all, it is the identity of the monster in the secret room—the basilisk."

"Are you sure?" Harry's eyes widened slightly. They searched for a long time but found nothing, but now the result was in front of them, and it was so easy that it was unbelievable.

"Goyle, you'd better not interrupt when others are talking.

Also, don't you think you're talking a little too much today? "Hermione glared at Harry as she spoke, signaling him not to worry too much, more than half an hour is enough to understand everything.

Harry nodded, swallowing in embarrassment.

"Don't be so nervous." Aaron waved his hand indifferently, "The matter is of great importance, and it is necessary to understand it clearly.

Draco, you told me that the secret room was opened 50 years ago, and I accidentally found the heir who was expelled 50 years ago..."

Harry's expression moved slightly, and just as he was about to ask, Ron bumped him with an elbow.

The two of them were Malfoy's followers, and Malfoy didn't say a few words, so it was his turn to ask them questions.

"The heir from 50 years ago?" Hermione asked in surprise, "Who is it?"

"I'm sorry, I can't say that.

But that doesn't matter, what matters is that I got some clues from him.

The monster in the secret room is the natural enemy of the spider. "

The three of them looked at each other, thinking of the group of spiders that were anxiously escaping from the window at the scene of the crime that day, they couldn't help but nodded secretly.

"Professor McGonagall also said that the monster was raised by Salazar Slytherin, which means it may have lived for thousands of years.

The natural enemy of spiders, the lifespan of thousands of years, plus the petrified state of Mrs. Norris and so on and so on.

Look carefully, look carefully, this must be some kind of extremely ferocious magical animal, isn't it? "Aaron laughed, "When other people were stupidly busy looking for clues that didn't exist in the school history, I borrowed all the books that recorded magical animals from Ms. Pince, and the only one that fit these characteristics was Basilisk. "

"The basilisk has a terrifying power, any creature that meets its gaze directly will be killed immediately, and those that meet indirectly will be petrified.

Mrs. Norris may have seen its eyes through the reflection on the water surface, and Justin probably saw its eyes through Nick's body. As for Nick, he is a ghost. He has died once and wants to die again, which is a luxury. "

"What about Colin?" Hermione asked. "He seems to have been petrified too."

"Um... I guided this, but I can only say that he was unlucky." Aaron shrugged, "After the Quidditch match, he went to see Harry Potter, but Abe told me in the corridor The warning came.

It was just me and him, a pure-blood, a Muggle-born, and it didn't matter who the basilisk was going to attack. "

"With your ability, you should be able to take him away!" There was a trace of anger in Harry's voice, but he concealed it well.

"Hehe! Gore, when did you become so sympathetic?"

"Um... I'm just curious."

"Then satisfy your curiosity." Aaron explained, "The situation was critical at the time, and I was indeed constantly wandering between life and morality.

I knew then that if I turned around, the basilisk would not hurt me.

But what about running with Colin?What if the basilisk chases it out?I dare not risk my life to gamble. "

"Then you're just watching like this?"

Hermione said in astonishment, although it is natural to save one's life, Aaron's performance was a bit cruel, and she even felt that she might have misjudged the person.

"of course not.

Before Colin turned down that passage, I asked him to take a few pictures and send them to Harry. "

"Oh, I see." Hermione suddenly realized, "Looking at the basilisk through the camera, the worst result will be petrification, but there are enough mandrakes in the school, as long as the herbs are mature, Colin can be restored .”

Snapped!

Aaron snapped his fingers, "That's it.

I can't take risks, I can only use this method to save his life.

If wizards of our age are not well prepared, it is impossible to defeat a magical creature of the same age as Salazar. It might be a good way to choose the latter between death and petrification, at least it can be saved. "

"I see!" Hermione nodded, and turned her head to give Harry and Ron a meaningful look.

You heard it all!This is what you suspect.

Fortunately, there was no direct questioning, otherwise there would be a crack in their friendship that was difficult to repair.

Harry and Ron looked at each other, feeling extremely ashamed that the villain they had been suspecting was actually a very good person.

"Wait." Harry raised his right hand, "I have a small question, since you know that the creature in the chamber is a basilisk, why didn't you tell Dumbledore?"

"Good idea, really good idea, why didn't I think of it!" Aaron smiled meaningfully, and pretended to have a sudden realization expression on his face, "Tell Dumbledore, and then ask him to tell the teachers and students in the school that we found out Salazar raised a basilisk, and everyone's safety is guaranteed."

Harry scratched his head in embarrassment, but Aaron's next words wiped the smile off his face.

"The heir of Slytherin may die and continue to hide in Hogwarts as a time bomb, but who knows if he will release the basilisk in a fit of anger and fight to the death?

He has ordered the basilisk to kill several people, do you think he will have any compassion?

A giant snake that has lived for thousands of years!It is not so easy for college professors to deal with it. How difficult can it be to kill us underage wizards? "

Harry was a little frustrated, and Ron didn't know how to comfort him.

It seems that knowing the existence of the basilisk is useless, but there is one more option when facing it, that is, indirect staring.

Although Shihua was uncomfortable, he could save his life anyway.

Hermione thought for a while, then murmured: "Then what if you tell Dumbledore to keep quiet and prepare secretly?"

"Draco, I'm glad you're acknowledging Dumbledore.

But there's no point in finding the Chamber of Secrets, or the heir of Slytherin, what to do.

Dumbledore would either do nothing, or be ready for the basilisk's natural enemy. "

"Does the basilisk have any natural enemies?" Harry asked a little excitedly. If he had prepared in advance, wouldn't Hogwarts be so dangerous?

"Gol, I can tell what you're thinking by looking at your expression, but do you think I haven't thought of it?"

Hearing this, Harry's heart sank again.

In the past ten minutes, his mood was like riding a roller coaster, with ups and downs.

"The natural enemy of the basilisk is the rooster.

But I'm sorry to tell you that the day Justin was attacked, Harry Potter and I went to Dumbledore's office, and Hagrid was holding a dead rooster in his hand.

In other words, the heir has already begun to eliminate the threat of the basilisk. Once the number of roosters in the school increases, he must know that if he does not want to play the whole Hogwarts at that time, it will be particularly dangerous. "

"Does that mean there's nothing we can do? Can't we do anything?"

"It can be said that, but there are the greatest white mages of this century in the school, and the other party will not start a large-scale killing if they throw a mouse. They can only pick those Muggle-born wizards who are alone.

And we're all purebloods, so as long as we're not a threat to him, we're safe. "

"What about those Muggle-born wizards?" Hermione said anxiously, "For example, Hermione Granger, isn't she also your friend!"

"Of course, I have prepared for this." Aaron raised his wand and pointed at the corner.

Pale white light flashed across, and a simple chicken cage appeared in front of the three of them, but what surprised them even more was the two roosters in the cage.

"It's a life saver, I got it out of the chicken coop on the day of the Quidditch match, without anyone noticing it.

The heir may have been killing roosters early on, but he didn't know these two existed. Aaron smiled self-deprecatingly, "Stealing public property may cause Slytherin to deduct more than ten points."

However, once the other party starts to attack the students unscrupulously, the presence of these two roosters can also ensure the safety of most students.

When I think about it, I'm still pretty great. "

Hermione and Ron looked at Harry again, their meaningful eyes made him blushing so hard that he couldn't lift his head.

He had vowed before that the good and harmless thing Aaron would do was to eliminate Muggle-born wizards, but he did not expect that they were quietly preparing to protect the entire school.

"What do you all see him doing?" Aaron asked in surprise, "Draco, are you hiding something from me?"

"No." Hermione shook her head immediately, "You know me well, I never lied to you."

Aaron frowned, carefully looked at the expressions of the three people, and suspected that they had something to hide from him.

But he will not ask too much, he will say what should be said sooner or later, and he will not be able to ask what should not be said.

"Forget it, everything today is inexplicable."

"Aaron, can we just passively protect ourselves?"

"Draco, I really didn't expect you to worry about Muggle-born wizards.

If Mr. Lucius knew about it, his complexion would probably not be very good-looking, but you are right, I am not the kind of person who only knows about peace, and it would not be good for me if Hogwarts closed down. "

As Aaron waved his wand lightly, another wall of clues fell in front of the three of them.

"This is..."

Hermione's eyes widened, and Harry and Ron were also dumbfounded.

There are densely packed names on the wall, but many of them are marked with crosses, and there are only a few dozen scattered in various places on the wall.

Chapter 174 List of Suspects

"This is the result of my hard work during this time." Aaron explained proudly, "I have accurately analyzed the family relationship of all the students in the school, excluding Muggle origin, who have no relationship with Salazar within ten generations, and There are only 23 wizards who behaved normally during school, and in the end there are only [-] wizards left."

"These are the students you found who might be the heir of Slytherin?" Harry asked with some doubts, "Why don't you see Harry Potter?

Isn't he a Parseltongue? "

"Gol, you're a bit prejudiced." Aaron said meaningfully, "The heir must be able to speak the snake language, there is no doubt about it, but the one who can speak the language of the snake may not necessarily be the heir.

Harry may have the blood of Salazar, but he will never use this power to hurt others. "

"That's why you trust him?" Harry didn't dare to meet Aaron's eyes. Comparing their actions, he felt ashamed.

"I can see people very accurately." Aaron walked to the middle of the wall, waved his wand lightly, and all the names marked with crosses disappeared, and the remaining names gathered from various positions on the wall to the center .

The names of 23 people suddenly became larger and shone with green light.

"This is impossible."

Ron stood up suddenly, looking at one of the names in surprise.

Ginny Weasley, his own sister was actually on the list of suspects.

"Calm down, Crabbe." Aaron said helplessly, "I don't know if there are any friends of yours here, but these are all carefully selected by me, and logically speaking, there will be no mistakes."

Ron froze for a moment, and quickly adjusted his expression.

He pointed to the name of Ginny Weasley, which was particularly conspicuous to him, and asked, "Is this a mistake? How could Weasley have something to do with Slytherin!"

Harry and Hermione also looked at Aaron in disbelief when they heard this, especially Harry, who lived in the Burrow for a month during his vacation and knew the Weasleys well.
