"Me?" Flitwick pointed at himself in astonishment, "But she had been dead for decades when I was the dean, and I don't know her at all."

"Myrtle, we can't agree to your conditions." Professor McGonagall said, "We still need Aaron's help, we can't do without him."

"It's not my business?"

"It's related to the cause of your death." Aaron said, "If you want to know who killed you 50 years ago, please cooperate and don't hinder us."

When Myrtle heard this, she struggled for a while, then flew up crying, "I just cooperate."

"Do you remember where you died?" Harry asked.

"It should be there." Myrtle said, pointing to the pool in front of her. "That tap never comes out."

Everyone stepped forward to check, checked the pool up and down, inside and out, but found nothing unusual.

"Could it be that you remember wrongly?" Lockhart asked, "If so, tell me. It's normal that you can't remember things 50 years ago."

"She remembers correctly." Hermione said suddenly, and then pointed to a small snake carved on the side of the dragon's head, "This is the symbol of Slytherin."

"But how do we open it?" asked Professor Sprout.

"Snake language." Aaron said, "Only those who can speak Parsel language can open it."

Harry nodded earnestly, and under the expectant eyes of everyone, he hissed at the dragon hair: open.

Chapter 188 Lockhart's Grievance

Following the snake language, the upper half of the pool rose slowly, and several water tanks in the lower half moved forward respectively. Among them, the water tank facing the crowd sank into the ground, revealing a hole in the center.

The sound of gasping for air-conditioning kept coming and going. I don't know if it was an illusion, but the temperature in the bathroom rose a little.

"Everyone, it seems that we are lucky." Aaron said excitedly, as if he had seen a large number of magic points beckoning to him.

Lockhart glanced at the extremely deep hole, and immediately took a step back in fright.

"Haha, if we must go down, I suggest we have a long-term plan."

"You go first." Snape said flatly, "I think the famous Gilderoy Lockhart should not lack the courage to lead the battle!"

"This...I..." Lockhart subconsciously clenched the two cocks, and said righteously: "This is not a question of whether to take the lead, but that it is irrational to act rashly before the danger is determined. of."

"That's right, but what we lack the most is time." Aaron said as he walked up to Lockhart, quietly took away the two cocks, and then gave him a gentle push.

"what..."

The high-pitched voice suddenly sounded, but it became smaller and smaller.

Aaron pricked up his ears earnestly at the entrance of the cave, and waited until he heard the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground before turning around and looking at the people who hadn't slowed down.

"If I heard correctly, this passage is a winding pipe, very long, but not dangerous.

If you have to use a metaphor, it is a slide, which will safely send people to the bottom. "

"The analysis is very good." McGonagall said, "But next time, don't just use other people to explore the way."

"Professor Lockhart is the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher!" Aaron said with a sneer, "You should have read his book too, this is just a small scene."

Snape gave Aaron an appreciative look, "Just jump down, right?"

"Is such that."

"I'm the vice-principal, I'll go down first." McGonagall said, then looked at the three Gryffindors, "Hurry up and go back to the common room, it's safer there."

"But professor, we..."

"Be good, Granger." Flitwick warned, "It's dangerous down there, we can't let the three children take risks."

"What about him?" Ron pointed at Aaron unconvinced, "Why can he go with you."

"Based on Gaius' ability, he is more or less able to protect himself." Snape sneered, "But if you three go, it's just a hindrance.

We can't let us take care of you while we are fighting the basilisk! "

"Professor, I think Harry Potter must come down with us.

Who knows if Parseltongue is needed next? "

Snape frowned slightly, and before he could raise any objections, Harry walked up to McGonagall, showing no fear of death, "Let me go, Professor."

Professor McGonagall nodded moved, and the corners of his eyes were even slightly moist.

"I'm going too." Ron said loudly, "It was Ginny Weasley who was caught in, she is my sister, you have no reason not to let me go."

"Okay, you go too, and Miss Granger comes with you."

"Professor McGonagall, this is not appropriate!" Snape said angrily, "We are going to fight, take them..."

"They are Gryffindor, and I will protect them." Professor McGonagall said directly, with a very firm tone.

In her opinion, this was a tailwind. Although it looked more dangerous, they had two natural enemies of the basilisk, which undoubtedly added a sure weight to the balance of victory.

That being the case, it doesn't matter if you bring three Gryffindors to gain knowledge.

Speaking of this, Professor Snape couldn't raise any objections, so he could only give the three of them a good look.

Professor McGonagall walked to the entrance, took a deep breath and jumped down, followed by Flitwick and Sprout.

Snape walked to the entrance, thought of something just as he was about to jump, turned to look at the three of Harry, "I'll only say this once, there's still time to go back now."

After he went down, Aaron turned around and looked at the three of them and sighed, "I mean the same thing as Professor Snape, except for Harry, you two had better go back and wait for news."

"That's my sister! I must go." Ron said righteously.

Hermione didn't say a word, but her eyes were more determined than anyone else's.

Aaron hesitated for a moment, then divided the two cocks in his hand between Ron and Hermione.

"What are you?" Ron asked puzzled.

Aaron didn't explain, picked up Abe and jumped off.

"Maybe in his opinion, we are too weak!" Hermione said thoughtfully.

Hearing this, Ron was a little angry, but the rooster in his arms gave him a great sense of security, and he didn't throw away the amulet for the sake of face.

The three looked at each other, walked to the entrance one by one, closed their eyes and jumped down.

They slid forward rapidly in the dark and sticky passage, screaming uncontrollably.

I don't know how long it took, the pipeline gradually changed from steep to flat.

After a buffer, they slid out of the exit and fell on a clearing.

"It's really dirty." Ron said with disgust.

"It's fine if it's just dirty." Aaron cast a cleaning spell on himself, and said meaningfully, "Friendly reminder, you'd better not look down."

"Luminescent flashes." Hermione picked up her wand to emit light, looked at the ground, then screamed in panic, and subconsciously hugged Aaron who was standing next to her.

Because the place where they stood was covered with bones, all kinds of animals, it was creepy.

"I told you not to look down." Aaron couldn't laugh or cry, and cast a cleaning spell on his soiled clothes.

"Ginny."

Ron was pale, and he couldn't imagine what his sister would be like when he was found.

"Let's go!" said Professor Flitwick. "We don't have time to waste here."

"That's right, finding that girl is the top priority," Lockhart said.

"You go ahead." Snape gave Lockhart a look, "Now is the time to prove your ability, I believe you will not refuse!"

Lockhart pretended to be calm and nodded, and was about to take the cock from Hermione's hand.

But as soon as he walked up to Hermione, a black wand appeared in front of his eyes. Aaron looked at him with a smile and said, "I don't think you, Professor, will snatch students' amulets!"

Lockhart was dumbfounded. If it weren't for these two roosters, it would be a serious question whether he could save his life.

"This, that..."

"Forget about this and that, the professors are all watching here?"

Hearing this, Lockhart's heart skipped a beat. Although he was terrified to death, he still had to put on a smiling face and gritted his teeth, "Of course not."

"As expected, I read you correctly, Professor Lockhart." Professor Snape sneered, and then made a gesture of invitation, "Please!"

Lockhart looked at the dark curve, his legs trembled slightly, and he moved with difficulty.

Passing through the curve is a rugged underground space.

But when everyone looked at the behemoth in front of them, they all opened their mouths in disbelief.

"Snake skin." Professor Sprout murmured, "These are the skins shed by the basilisk, making it the best record of its body shape changes in the past thousand years."

"This is not good news." Professor Flitwick carefully drew out his wand, "The smallest slough here is twenty feet long.

The biggest one must be fifty or sixty feet! "

"Don't worry, Professor Flitwick." Professor Snape said with a sinister smile, "We have Gilderoy Lockhart here, and a mere basilisk is definitely a piece of cake for him.

He takes the lead and everything is not a problem, is it!Professor Lockhart? "

When Lockhart heard this, he didn't answer, but his cheeks twitched constantly, and he cursed even more in his heart.

Didn't it just pretend to be in front of you a few times?As for entrapping me to such an extent?

Normally, he would have the cheek to admit this vanity, but now he only wants a cock to save his life.

But turning around inadvertently, Harry, Ron, and Hermione were guarded by Professor McGonagall with the two cocks in their hands, and they didn't give him a chance to do anything!

In desperation, Lockhart rolled his eyes and fell backwards.

Pretending to be dizzy, the most versatile way to solve a problem is to give the problem to someone who can solve it.

"Professor." Hermione was shocked, and wanted to go to have a look but was stopped by Professor McGonagall, "Don't run around, Lockhart just passed out."

"Oh my god!" Snape said disdainfully, "It seems that our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is not as powerful as he boasted, he just didn't want to be the first to speak out, why did he pass out!"

Lockhart:  …

Do I dare to refuse your vicious look?

"Leave it to me." Aaron volunteered, then walked up to Lockhart and pointed his wand at his face, "The spring is like water."

The cold water splashed directly on Lockhart's face, but his acting skills were online, let alone opened his eyes, he didn't even move.

"Fuck!" Aaron's eyes widened, and he patted Lockhart's left cheek, "You can be considered a talent.

Being a teacher is really a waste of talent, you should be an actor, or you can be an undercover agent. "

"Aaron, isn't it kind of nice for you to be like this?" Hermione said a little bit unbearably, she still had a little fantasies about Lockhart, after all, he was one of the characters she admired.

"Oh!" Aaron sighed, and put away the wand in his hand.

Seeing this, Hermione had a smile on her face, and Lockhart, who was lying on the ground, also breathed a sigh of relief.

However, the next moment, a slap was slapped on Lockhart's face, and he wailed in pain and got up from the ground.

"you..."

"You're welcome, that's how some Muggles save people.

Professor Lockhart, you are my good teacher and helpful friend, the beacon of life, how could I have the heart to leave you here alone! "Aaron said with a smile, and then pointed to the shameful road blocked by the snake slough, "Now that I'm awake, I'll entrust you with the job of leading the battle, you probably won't refuse it!" "

Chapter 189 The Barrier Outside the Secret Room

Lockhart pursed his lips, looked at the meaningful eyes of everyone, and quickly made a choice between face and life.

If you lose face, you can earn more. At worst, you can change to another place, but if you lose your life, you will have nothing left.

"I'm sorry, I have to decline this time." Lockhart said seriously, "I don't want to stay here for a moment, and I have to go back now."

"But you are the professor of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, and this is your responsibility." Professor McGonagall said angrily. Although she also felt that Lockhart could not help much, deserting soldiers in the team at this time is not a good thing.

"You can't say that, it's not my obligation." Lockhart disagreed, "It wasn't included in the work regulations when I accepted this position."

"Are you saying you're getting cold feet?" Harry asked in disbelief.

Lockhart smiled and shrugged without denying it.

"How can you run?" Hermione couldn't accept it, "You wrote so many amazing things about yourself in the book."

"Books can be deceiving." Lockhart grinned. "Those stories are true, but they change the protagonists from ugly old wizards, or disgusting old witches with hairy chins and poor taste in clothes." Into a glamorous Gilderoy Lockhart.
