In the Gryffindor common room, Percy covered his face with his hands and sat on the sofa without saying a word. Fred and George sat opposite Percy, facing the comfort of their mutual friend Li Jordan. There was no reaction from either of them.
Ron stayed by the fireplace with a gloomy face and his lips kept slurping, as if he had just suffered a serious illness.
Beside him, Harry shook his legs anxiously and looked at the door of the common room from time to time, as if waiting for something.
"I found it"
Finally, the Fat Lady's portrait opened, and Hermione crawled out of the doorway panting, waving a note in her hand.
Looking at Ron who showed no reaction, Harry quickly stood up from his chair to welcome Hermione's answer.
"Professor Blaine's guess is correct,"
Hermione's orange eyes flashed hard, and she couldn't help but put the note into Harry's hand. While there, he recited the contents of the note in a low voice,
"In our country, there are many terrible beasts and monsters wandering around. The most bizarre and lethal among them is the basilisk, which is also known as the Basilisk. Called the Snake King, this snake can become very large and can usually live for hundreds of years.
It is hatched from a male egg and kills people. It is very shocking. In addition to its deadly fangs, its glare can also kill people. Anyone caught in its gaze will die immediately.
The spider will run for its life when it sees the basilisk. , because the basilisk is the deadly enemy of the spider, and the basilisk will run for its life as soon as it hears the crowing of the rooster, because the crowing of the rooster is also very fatal to it"
"But"
Ron finally came to his senses. He moved his dry and pale lips and muttered,
"So far, no one has died. If the gaze of that basilisk can kill, , Colin and Justin"
"That's because no one has ever faced the eyes of a basilisk"
Harry felt like his stomach was soaked in ice water, and his cheeks Twitching and whispering,
"Hagrid's cock was strangled. Colin saw it through the camera. The basilisk burned the film of the camera, so Colin was just petrified. Jia Sting is Nick. He must have seen the basilisk through the almost headless Nick. Nick was stared at by the basilisk, but he couldn't die a second time, right?"
"And Mrs. Norris"
Hermione said seriously,
"I guess it saw the basilisk Harry in the reflection of the water flowing out of Myrtle's bathroom. I'm glad you figured it out. Riddle deceived you. The monster in the Chamber of Secrets was a basilisk, not a furry monster. Hagrid may be innocent."
Hermione's conclusion made Ha Leigh's face turned pale, and he hesitated, not knowing how to explain why Riddle's memory deceived him.
"Let's go find Hagrid"
HalfAfter a while, Harry finally came to his senses and said firmly, "Hagrid must know something. I don't know why Riddle told us a wrong memory. Maybe it is the real murderer, but No matter what, Hagrid must know some key information."
Professor McGonagall ordered all the little wizards to stay in the lounge and not go out, although Percy was in no condition to carry out Professor McGonagall's orders. , but none of the three of them knew what was going on outside. Harry rushed to the dormitory to get his invisibility cloak, leaving Hermione and Ron speechless.
When they quietly came out of the common room, they found that there was no longer any little wizard wandering in the castle. The corridors were silent, and only the professors walking together were patrolling up and down the castle. , and the expressions on the faces of those professors also made them feel desperate.
Is Ginny still alive? Why did the heir of Slytherin finally target Ginny?
Not even Hermione can answer this question. In fact, Harry is now What flashed in his mind was a terrifying picture, that is, when Ginny was found, she had turned into a cold corpse. Mrs. Weasley lay on Ginny's body and howled, and Mr. Weasley Then he squatted to the side and pulled out his few hairs one by one
Regret was tearing at Harry's heart like a poisonous snake. Until this moment, he extremely regretted not killing Riddle earlier. Give Professor Brain's diary
Professor Brain can only infer from the sound he heard that the attacker was a snake moving through the tube. If it were the diary of him and Riddle, If they communicate, Harry bets that Professor Brain will be able to dig out what secrets are hidden in Riddle's mind
It was a starry night, and they hurried towards the reflecting door of Hagrid's residence. No one said anything until he ran to the lighted window until he was outside Hagrid's door. After Harry looked around cautiously, he took the initiative to take off the invisibility cloak.
A few seconds after they knocked on the door, Hagrid opened the door suddenly. They saw Hagrid holding a crossbow and pointing it at them, with the big hound Fangya barking loudly behind him. .
Hagrid seemed very shocked that they would appear here. He looked uneasy. The water in the kettle spilled out and almost put out the fire. Then his thick hand shook violently. The teapot was also knocked over.
"You've heard about Ginny, right"
Ron stared at Hagrid with a sullen face, Hermione didn't speak, and Harry could only open it himself topic.
"Oh, yes, I've heard about it."
Hagrid didn't seem to realize that they were here to question him. His voice was choked and he was always nervous. Looking towards the window, just as he was about to cut a thick piece of fruit cake, there was a loud knock on the door again.
Harry could only swallow back all the questions he wanted to ask, and pee with HermioneWatching Ron huddled in a corner in a daze, after seeing them hiding, Hagrid grabbed the crossbow again and suddenly opened the door.
"Good evening, Hagrid."
It was Dumbledore, who walked in with a very serious expression, followed by a very strange-looking man.
This stranger was short and chubby, with the same gray hair on top of Professor Brain's head, but it was much messier, with an anxious look on his chubby face.
The style of his clothes is very strange, a pinstriped suit, a bright red collar, a black cloak, purple pointed boots, and a dark green top hat under his arm.
"That's my dad's boss"
Ron finally came to his senses and whispered to Harry and Hermione, "Cornelly Fudge, Minister of Magic "
Hermione nudged Ron hard with her elbow to shut him up.
For Hagrid, the worst thing finally happened. He fell down on the bed and defended himself with a pale face.
"I can't help it, Hagrid"
Fudge said in a clear and fast tone, "It's very bad. Dumbledore asked me to stay calm. During those two little After the wizard was petrified, I can't describe to you how much pressure I took on to force the Daily Prophet to shut up. However, now this matter can no longer be hidden. Many people in the ministry who are paying attention to this matter already know about Weasley. My daughter may have suffered a tragedy."
"I hope you understand, Connelly, that I completely trust Hagrid."
Dumbledore frowned and sounded solemn, but. His blue eyes were also shining with helplessness.
Sometimes rights are such unreasonable things. Even Dumbledore must abide by the rights structure under a stable social framework, unless he wants to push everything back.
But Fudge seemed to have made up his mind. He played with his top hat and said casually, without looking into Dumbledore's eyes.
"From my perspective. Look, Dumbledore, a little precaution is in order, and if we end up discovering that someone else has opened the Chamber of Secrets, Hagrid will be released and the Ministry of Magic will issue a full apology."
