Drinking black tea calmly at Hogwarts

Zhang Xu, who was sweating from Lushan waterfall, what he wanted to do most at the moment was to rush in front of Lockhart, "Professor, I want to learn the Oblivion Curse."

Although Lockhart is unreliable in many places, his Oblivion Curse can be said to be mastered, reaching the level of a professor.

Human memory is a very delicate existence, and the magic to delete human memory is also very complicated. A little carelessness will cause the other party's memory to be confused, or even brain-dead.

And to delete part of a person's memory purposefully, so that the other party will not suffer obvious damage, is a test of the spellcaster's operation level.

It's as simple as chopping up a whole book, but to tear out only specific content, you have to find the pages of these content first, and then carefully cut out the pages while ensuring that the rest of the book is intact.

If the current Zhang Xu took out his wand to cast the Forgetting Curse, the effect would be the same as using bricks to cast the Forgetting Curse.

Zhang Xu spent 15 minutes explaining to Ginny that he focused on checking the scars on her arms and shoulders and did not do anything weird to her, and Dumbledore and other professors were also there at the time. in the ward.

As for whether Ginny believed it or not, Zhang Xu himself believed it anyway.

In the end, Ginny convinced herself, otherwise, what would she do? She mustered up the courage to ask Zhang Xu about it, just to seek peace of mind.

Zhang Xu came to the reading room and saw "Secret Room" written on the parchment showing the topic of this afternoon's salon discussion, so he knew he would be busy this afternoon.

All morning, Zhang Xu sat in his seat, thinking about the two plans he had just made.

During the period, Zhang Xu saw that Harry wanted to come to him two or three times, but he gave up halfway through.

Zhang Xu didn't pay attention to him. Who knows whether he came to talk to him about the basilisk or about Ginny, neither of which is easy to dismiss.

It was three o'clock in the afternoon, and the reading room was busier than ever.

The long table in the middle of the entire reading room was full of people.

The surrounding open space was also full of onlookers.

Compared with the past, today's atmosphere is more dignified, and it is no longer the relaxed and lively atmosphere of the past.

Seeing that today seemed to be a meeting, Zhang Xu spoke first.

"Last night, Mrs. Norris was attacked. After inspection by the professors, it did not die, but was petrified."

"And on the wall where the crime took place, it was written that the secret room has been opened. Those who are enemies of the heir, be vigilant. These words."

"We should note that prior to this, Ginny Weasley had been attacked and injured."

"I think we should find out about these things, what is the secret room, who is the heir in the secret room, and who is the attack on Ginny and whether there is any connection with this incident?"

When Ginny heard Zhang Xu mentioning this matter, her face turned pale and her whole body trembled. She leaned against Harry's body, which greatly dissatisfied Ron on the side.

Jed Stel, a seventh-grade student of the Snake Academy, said: "In Hogwarts, there have been legends about secret rooms and secret passages for a long time."

The students of the magic family nodded, saying that they had heard about it.

"When Hogwarts Castle was built, it was the era when Muggles were frantically hunting wizards. At that time, in order to resist possible Muggle attacks, many secret passages and secret rooms were built in the castle."

"Later, with the end of the Muggle menace, these secret passages and chambers were abandoned."

"Many years have passed, and these secret passages and chambers have been discovered slowly. Regarding the secret passages, I think the two Mr. Weasleys have the most say."

The twin brothers were smiling and nodding to everyone.

"As for the secret room, in fact, many secret rooms have their own names, such as the one that many of us have used."

A group of senior students smiled knowingly, making the students of lower grades look sideways.

"The only one named after the secret room is the one in the legend." Jed Steer said with a serious face at the end.

Many students of the Snake Academy present nodded solemnly at the same time.

"This morning, I consulted Professor Binns about the Chamber of Secrets." Penelope Crivat, the prefect of the Eagle Academy, said while opening a notebook, "The following is what Professor Binns said."

"You know, Hogwarts school was founded more than 1000 years ago, the exact date is not certain. The founders were four of the greatest wizards and wizards of the time, and the four houses are named after them: Godric Grand Fendor, Helga Hufflepuff, Rowena Ravenclaw and Salazar Slytherin. Together they built this castle away from the prying eyes of Muggles, because at that time, the common people There is a lot of persecution for witches and wizards because of the fear of magic."

"In the first few years, the founders worked harmoniously together, looking for young people who showed signs of magic, and bringing them to the castle to train them well. However,

Gradually, differences developed between them.The rift between Slytherin and the others grew wider.Slytherin wished Hogwarts had been more selective in its admissions.He believed that magical education should be confined to purely magical families.He was reluctant to accept Muggle-born children, considering them unreliable.Some days later, Slytherin and Gryffindor had a violent argument over this issue, and Slytherin left the school. "

"That's what reliable historical sources tell us. But these pure facts are overshadowed by a quaint legend about the Chamber of Secrets. The story says that Slytherin built a secret chamber in the castle, which the other founders knew nothing about. Know. According to the legend, Slytherin sealed the Chamber of Secrets so that no one could open it until his true heir came to the school. Only that heir could open the Chamber of Secrets and release the horrors inside, making it Purify the school and remove all those who are not worthy of learning magic."

Penelope Crivat finished reading the content in the notebook, and the students around were suddenly silent.

"So, what's that horrible thing inside?" a student of Badger Academy asked.

Then, the students started talking about it.

"Perhaps a powerful magic item."

"Or some kind of monster."

"If it is a magic item, how much magic power will be lost over 1000 years"

"What monster can live for 1000 years"

"If it's a magic item, it can only petrify a cat instead of killing it. Wouldn't the power be too small?"

"Could it be that the user doesn't have full control over it"

"If it was left by Slytherin, then only his heirs can use it"

"It's also possible that some kind of monster was sealed by Slytherin, and only his descendants can control it"

"If the murderer who attacked Miss Weasley was also that person, why didn't that person kill her?"

"Maybe it's because Miss Weasley is a pureblood, and that man doesn't kill purebloods."

"Could it be that Miss Weasley is the descendant of Slytherin who was injured when she opened the Chamber of Secrets?"

"Hahaha the descendants of Slytherin will be in Gryffindor College"

"It may be that the person was touched by Miss Weasley when he opened the Chamber of Secrets, and then injured her, but because she is pure blood, she was not killed, but her memory was erased."

"It's possible, Bonnie Wright, where you found the injured Miss Weasley. Maybe the Chamber of Secrets is nearby."

"Filch searched around that place at least ten times, and found nothing related to secret rooms and secret passages."

"I think that horrible thing may be some kind of monster. The descendant of Slytherin ordered it to ambush and attack people in that place. As a result, the cat passed by there first, so he was attacked. The descendant of Slytherin should be Slytherin. Students of Lytherin College, but at the dinner that day, all the Slytherin students were there. If it was a magic item, no one would put the magic item in that place."

"The words of monsters will leave traces."

"Maybe with magic items."

A group of students discussed for a long time, but did not discuss the reason. Although some people guessed the truth, they lacked a decisive arrangement.

At this time, Zhang Xu was too lazy to think about how to bring rhythm, because he found that the students of Hogwarts had cultivated the initiative to solve problems, not like in the "plot", except for the protagonist three People outside the group just blindly fear and wait.

If Zhang Xu deliberately guides and suppresses the students, it will make people think that "Zhang Xu is the descendant of Slytherin" may be the truth.As soon as this brain hole came out just now, more people agreed with it than those who thought Harry Potter was the descendant of Slytherin.

Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, Zhang Xu ended the discussion.

Finally, Zhang Xu proposed several directions.

"What is the Chamber of Secrets is currently only what Professor Binns said. You can look for other legends and records about the Chamber of Secrets to confirm each other."

"There are currently two guesses about what is in the secret room, magic items and magic monsters. You can find out if there are any qualified magic items and magic monsters in the library."

"As for who the heir is, I hope that the heir can stand up on his own, but this is obviously impossible. But what I want to say is that I hope everyone will not easily doubt someone before they have conclusive evidence."

"I think that after solving these problems, we can better analyze whether Ginny's attack is related to this incident."

"There is another important point. I hope everyone can pay attention to the unusual details around you. Sometimes, these details can provide important clues."

"We put together the clues we could find, and I believe we can find the truth."
