"How should I know?" Andy said as he flipped through the last few pages of the book and then closed it with a bored look on his face.

Can't stand it.

"But we can go to the library tonight."

Andy suggested, "The library is right in the lounge, so this doesn't count as a night out, does it?"

Hermione nodded.

There was a glimmer of excitement in the little witch's eyes, and the adventurous gene in her bones seemed to have awakened.

……

into the night.

The Ravenclaw common room was empty.

Andy walked out of the boys' dormitory in his pajamas and sat on the sofa waiting for a while. Then he saw the little witch, fully armed, sneakily pushing open the door of the girls' dormitory.

The little witch poked her head out and was relieved to see that Andy was the only one in the lounge.

"…Are you going to be a thief?"

Andy said with amusement, "When you look like this, anyone who sees you will know that you are up to no good."

Hermione glanced at Andy.

Andy was wearing pajamas and slippers, sitting casually on the sofa, with his wand in his pajamas pocket, with only half of it sticking out.

Look at yourself again...

He was wearing a wizard robe, a wizard hat, and a scarf around his face, with only his nose and eyes exposed.

At first glance, it does look like a thief!

"Humph! I call this well prepared."

Hermione said stubbornly, "If we get into danger later, you won't be able to outrun me in your slippers."

Andy: "..."

Is this the Ravenclaw way?

"Let's go!"

Andy stood up, pushed open the door of the library, and walked in first.

"Show me your secret!"

Andy took out his wand and pointed it around, but found nothing.

Hermione seemed to still be holding a grudge. The little witch said with disdain, "This is the magic left by Ms. Ravenclaw. How can a first-year wizard like you possibly break it?"

"Whether I can crack it or not, I have to give it a try." Andy smiled and put away his wand.

"Humph!"

Hermione raised her chin proudly. "Ravenclaw symbolizes knowledge and wisdom. Rowena Ravenclaw once said a famous motto: Extraordinary wisdom is the greatest wealth of mankind."

"If you ask me, the key to unlocking the secrets here is to read books!"

Hermione looked very confident.

"Extraordinary wisdom is the greatest wealth of mankind?"

Andy looked thoughtful, "Maybe Ms. Ravenclaw herself wouldn't agree with this statement."

"What do you mean?" Hermione looked confused.

"Why do you say that!?"

A voice suddenly came, and Andy quickly pulled out his wand, "Who?"

A silver-white ghost passed through the wall. She was very tall and beautiful, but looked a little arrogant.

"Ms. Grey?"

Andy raised an eyebrow and put his wand back into his pajama pocket, "Sorry we disturbed you."

"I'm asking you a question! What makes you say that Ms. Ravenclaw doesn't agree with that statement?" Ms. Grey was a little relentless.

Andy rubbed his nose. "I've heard some stories about Ms. Ravenclaw and her daughter. I think if she could exchange wisdom for her daughter, she would definitely be willing to do it."

"willing…"

Ms. Grey seemed to have been hit hard. She was dazed for a long time, then glared at Andy and screamed, "What do you know!?"

After saying that, Ms. Grey disappeared through the wall without looking back.

"Uh...did I say something wrong?" Andy looked at Hermione with confusion.

Isn’t the theme of Harry Potter love and friendship?

If Dumbledore heard what I said, he would definitely think that I was a rare model student in a century.

Why is it that when I get to Ms. Grey, all I get in return is a shrill roar?

"Maybe... she admires Ms. Ravenclaw very much?" Hermione guessed.

"I admire Ms. Ravenclaw too?"

Andy was dissatisfied and said, "I also said that Ms. Ravenclaw was the most powerful of the four founders."

Not being beaten to death makes him the most powerful?

Hermione looked at Andy and wondered whether she should just beat him to death. It was late at night and no one would know.

"By the way, where was I just now?"

Andy recalled, "Oh, now I remember... If you can find secrets by reading books, the secret left by Ms. Ravenclaw would have been solved long ago."

"I guess what Ms. Ravenclaw most wanted in her last moments of life was to see her daughter for the last time."

Chapter 76 Hermione, do you think I'm smart?

Hermione nodded. She had also read the story of Ms. Ravenclaw and her daughter, so she naturally agreed with Andy's words.

Reading books is obviously useless, otherwise the secrets here would have been cracked long ago.

"But...what are we going to do?" Hermione asked.

"Hmm..." This question really stumped Andy.

The way to crack the secret is obviously not to read a book, but if it is related to family ties... then what should we do?

"Let's look for it first!" Andy suggested.

"Okay!" Hermione naturally had no objection, and the two of them quickly took action.

Andy looked along the bookshelf one by one. The books here were all from Ms. Ravenclaw's personal collection. Although there were not many books introducing magic, they were all precious classics in the wizarding world.

There is no doubt that with Andy's level of magic, he can't detect any traces of magic here.

Then the only way to crack the secret is to meet Ms. Ravenclaw's requirements.

Andy tried to put himself into the mind of the Ravenclaw lady.

First of all, when was this secret left behind?

Before the daughter ran away? Or after the daughter ran away?

Secondly, what was Ms. Ravenclaw's purpose in keeping this secret?

Give the little wizard more time to study?

The answer to the first question cannot be verified yet.

But the second question... Andy obviously didn't think that Ms. Ravenclaw left these things just to give the little wizard more time to read.

Although this is indeed in line with the style of Ravenclaw ladies.

And the person who cracked the secret did read all the books here in just one night.

But this is time magic!

Did Ms. Ravenclaw leave such a powerful time magic here just to let the little wizard read books?

And these books are for entertainment!

"Perhaps...the secrets that Ms. Ravenclaw wants people to know are hidden in these books."

Andy suddenly understood, "If this speculation is correct, then everything makes sense."

Ms. Ravenclaw hid a secret in a book, but the young wizard only had seven years to study and obviously could not read all the books here.

That's why Ms. Ravenclaw left the time magic so that the little wizards can have more time to read.

"The books here all introduce cultural relics, legends and the like. Could it be that... Ms. Ravenclaw was pursuing a certain legend before her death, but she fell ill unexpectedly, so she entrusted the matter to her descendants?"

Thinking of this, Andy quickly said: "Hermione, I thought of something, can you help me analyze it."

After listening to Andy's speculation, Hermione also looked serious.

Indeed, if Ms. Ravenclaw left the time magic just to let the little wizard finish reading all the books here, it would be too unreasonable.

But...what if there are some secrets hidden in these books?

"Andy, there are so many books here, and there are so many stories recorded in the books. Even if we read them all, it would be difficult to tell the truth from the false, right?" Hermione suddenly said.

"Knowledge and wisdom are the symbols of Ravenclaw. Perhaps this is the test that Ms. Ravenclaw has left for us."

Andy's eyes flickered. "Read all the books in the collection, distinguish the true from the false stories, and find the secrets that Ms. Ravenclaw wants us to know."

Andy discovered that those powerful wizards seemed to have been pursuing some legendary stories.

Grindelwald was searching for the Deathly Hallows, and he also met Dumbledore in Godric's Hollow, and the two became close friends.

Perhaps Dumbledore also searched for the Deathly Hallows.

Now it seems that Lady Ravenclaw has also been chasing some legendary stories.

Of course, the premise of all this is that Andy's guess is correct.

The secret here is either for the daughter or for the ancient legend. One of the two must be the truth.

The first person who discovered the secret here had the great opportunity of reading all the books in one night.

So Andy believes the latter more.

So…which book is it?

"I'll go back and be right back."

Andy hurried back to the dormitory, and then ran back with parchment and a quill.

Andy waved his wand, and as Andy cast a spell, the parchment automatically floated in the air, and the feather pen wrote and drew on it.

Hermione took a look, "Are you copying down book titles?"

"Well...I plan to go back and study it carefully."

Andy said, "Maybe there are some secrets hidden in the title of the book."

After all, the names of books about the magical world are very straightforward.

Hermione ignored Andy. She took out a book and sat aside to read.

If it was just about reading, Hermione was never afraid of anyone.

There weren't many books in the Ravenclaw library, and Andy took more than two hours to copy down all the titles.

Sitting opposite Hermione, Andy began to study the book according to its title.

The Life and Habits of Ancient Wizards

The Story Merlin and I Have to Tell

Famous Wizards and Their Stories in the Ancient Magic World

Secrets of the Ancient European Magical World

……

Andy looked through the books one by one according to their titles. Except for a few books about magic, most of the books were related to the ancient magic world. The rest were some poetry and prose.

"From a time perspective, these books are thousands of years old."
