Chapter 163: Pulling the Little Pigtail
After dinner in the evening, here in the girls' bathroom, we finally grew arm bones and discharged the savior Harry Potter, the red-haired Ron Weasley, and another prophetic son, Neville Longbottom, met again in this "secret base".
Here, Harry told Neville and Ron what he had heard in the infirmary last night, as well as about Dobby, the house-elf.
Dobby had told Ron when he was at the Weasley's house before, but Neville heard it for the first time, especially when he knew that Harry and Ron had not returned to school on time at the beginning of school because of him, and instantly became enemies with Harry.
"That voice appeared again last night, but unfortunately I didn't have to run out to check, otherwise I would have been able to find out who the person who manipulated the monster was and saved Colin."
Harry said in a low and reproachful tone, and Neville on the side patted Harry on the shoulder emotionally, if it was him, he would feel the same way, so he could understand Harry's mood very well.
On the other hand, because the last time George and Fred got the patent fee for the Daydream Spell from Li Xuan, and after they pooled money with Percy to exchange Ron for a new wand, Ron seemed to suddenly open up and changed as a person.
Although it can't be called reborn, it is at least much better than before, and it is better to cast spells than before, and even mastered a lot of spells.
"So, the most suspicious thing now is Draco, don't forget the previous dispute on the Quidditch pitch, and the collision between him and Li Xuan on the Hogwarts Express at the beginning of school last year, because he looked down on the Muggle-born wizard, uttered the word Mudblood, and was almost beaten by Li Xuan."
And the day before yesterday he was injured on the Quidditch pitch with you, and he was hospitalized together, and there was a monster attack the night he was discharged, and the time was so coincidental, it must be venting the resentment of losing to you on the Quidditch pitch.
"And Colin is a little wizard who has a good relationship with you and was born into a Muggle family, and he still held a camera on the day of the game, maybe he also filmed Malfoy's embarrassment, and his motive for retaliating against Colin is also plausible."
At this moment, Ron seems to be Sherlock Holmes, Conan Doyle possessed, and some dead schoolboy, almost telling that truth forever!
Harry and Neville heard Ron's analysis and felt that it made sense, Draco Malfoy had been working against them all along, and his arrogant nature was also famous.
And because Colin was always dangling around with a camera, Draco Malfoy took Crabbe and they blocked Colin, and if Snape hadn't just appeared, the thin Colin might have really been beaten.
But I don't know why, Draco was not protected by Snape that time, on the contrary, Snape's face was very gloomy that day, and Draco was punished, and he spent some time with Filch.
Harry they didn't know, but Li Xuan, who had heard about it, knew, because Snape saw Draco taking Crabbe and they bullied the thin Colin, as if he saw the disgusting James Potter with Blake and they bullied themselves. And Colin was also born as a Muggle, which reminded Snape of Lily, which is why Snape's face was so ugly.
"Then why did Draco petrify Filch's cat, Lady Loris, during the first attack, and why only petrified it instead of killing it?! And this time Colin too, didn't he hate each other very much? "
At this time, Neville suddenly asked a new question, but before Ron could answer, Harry was the first to answer: "Don't forget, when we went to Chinese New Year's Eve tour because of Colin's affairs before, we were locked up and Draco was choked enough." "
"So he petrified Lady Loris to take revenge on Filch, after all, Filch's disgusting, you all understand, as for why it's all petrified and not killed, I don't know."
For Neville's last question, Harry couldn't think of an answer for the time being, and he could only say it clearly.
"Perhaps, it's because Draco is afraid."
"Scared?!"
Hearing Ron's words, Neville and Harry were a little confused, how could they be afraid, they dared to manipulate monsters to attack wizards, how could they still be afraid?
"Don't forget, who is the headmaster of Hogwarts, that is the most powerful white wizard in modern times, Dumbledore, if Draco dares to really kill, then Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall will absolutely turn the whole of Hogwarts over."
"And then the Aurors of the Ministry of Magic will definitely intervene, and then Draco will be unable to escape, even if he is from the Malfoy family!"
I have to say that Ron's statement made Harry and Neville believe, after all, what Ron said is indeed quite reasonable, Dumbledore's strength is known to both of them, so Ron's statement is correct.
"However, even if we go and tell Headmaster Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall that Malfoy is the heir to the Chamber of Secrets, it is useless, because all this is just our speculation, and there is no substantial evidence."
"It's useless for us to say more, they won't believe it, we need to find real evidence, which will have to be close to Malfoy, but he won't tell us."
Harry said bitterly, he now wished he could grab Draco's pigtails so that he could prevent him from summoning that monster to attack people again.
"I know of a potion called a compound potion, which is a potion that can make drinkers look like other people, and if we can turn into Crabbe and Goyle, we can take Draco's words!"
After Harry's words, all three were silent for a moment, and finally this silence was broken by Neville as he thought of a way.
"That's a good idea, Neville, will you boil this compound decoction?!"
Harry felt that at this moment Neville was a light, shining on his body, Neville's method was indeed very believable!
"It will be, but this compound decoction is very difficult, even if it is normal boiling, it will take a whole month, can you wait?!"
Neville nodded, although the compound decoction is a very high-grade dish, even for adult wizards it is a very difficult challenge, but for Neville there is still hope.
After all, the difficulty of compound decoction lies in the month-long brewing time, and there can be no mistakes in the middle, and Neville does not have anything else, patience and carefulness are still there.
"Yes! One month, as long as you can afford to wait, this month I will work hard, you can cooperate well. "
"Good!"
Our Gryffindor Savior trio made up their minds, and for a month, they could afford to wait!.
Chapter 164: Point Out the Monster
Li Xuan naturally didn't know that Harry ran to the girls' bathroom again to "plot" to save Hogwarts, and it can only be said that since Harry entered Hogwarts, Hogwarts has been quite busy.
Busy being destroyed, busy being saved, can only say that the business is busy!
He was now being surrounded by little Ravenclaw wizards, not fighting in groups, not arguing, but asking him for advice.
The news that Colin Creevey had been attacked and was now lying stiff and gray in the infirmary spread rapidly throughout Hogwarts.
Even the naughty and bold little wizard secretly went to the infirmary to see Colin Creevey, and when he came back, he talked in a colorful voice, which made everyone even more afraid.
For a time, there were rumors flying in Hogwarts, and the little wizards were suspicious, especially the young wizards who had just entered the first year, and they were all in groups of three or five and huddled together.
As if fearing that if they acted alone, they would be attacked like Colin Creevey.
And in these two days, the little wizards kept their professors secret, privately chattering about amulets, exorcising evil spirits, and all kinds of other things to protect themselves.
Recently, all kinds of strange things have appeared at Hogwarts, what smelly garlic onions are already ordinary operations, pointed amethysts, 443 rotten water tails, Dharma Protector branches, horseradish kits and so on.
Relying on this wave of panic, the Weasley twins are making a lot of money.
After all, in the magic prop making piece, George and Fred can be said to be master-level existences.
Originally, all the ten gold gallons given by Li Xuan were cast in Ron's new wand, but now in such a wave, although it cannot reach ten gold gallons, but there are also three or four gold gallons, this is okay, this is pure profit!
Li Xuan felt that if George and Fred were born in the Muggle world, they would definitely be very top businessmen in the future, and this sensitivity to business was really innate.
And very clear of the needs of customers, can prepare in advance, accurate cut to the key points of customers.
Don't think that three or four gold gallons are very few, and the little wizards are not rich people, so the exchange between them is basically limited to about three silver and west, except for a few wronged heads.
And George and Fred also need the capital to buy goods, if four gold gallons don't seem like much, then what about sixty-eight silver sico, and one thousand nine hundred and seventy-two copper nats? That's a lot!
As for why Li Xuan was fenced off, it was because two days a little wizard had asked Professor McGonagall and Professor Flitwick about them in class, and the things they asked about, of course, were about the Chamber of Secrets.
Because of Colin Creevey's affairs and Dumbledore's deliberate release of information, Professor McGonagall will naturally not continue to hide them.
What's more, to be honest, the matter of the Chamber of Secrets is not very secretive, there are so many pure-blooded little wizards in Hogwarts, even if they don't say it, they will not know when they write to ask their elders.
Since this is the case, then simply say it generously, otherwise God knows what the secret room will become in the rest of the population.
After the little wizards learned about the Chamber of Secrets, they were now mainly guessing what monster Salazar Slytherin was hiding in the Chamber of Secrets, or what kind of magical creature it was.
After all, Li Xuan's understanding of magical animals is someone who even Professor Sturburn of Fantastic Zoology praises.
Therefore, the little wizard of Ravenclaw and the little wizard of Hufflepuff came to ask Li Xuan, as for Slytherin, they couldn't play a piece, and Gryffindor, don't mention it, after taking away the trophy of the House Cup from Li Xuan by "improper" means last school year, he was too weak to face Li Xuan.
"According to my investigation, Salazar Slytherin should be a basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets!"
"Basilisk?!!"
Li Xuan also did not hide it, since he couldn't find the basilisk, and everyone asked him, then there was nothing wrong with telling everyone the information of the basilisk.
Originally, the information of the basilisk was not a big deal, and Li Xuan did not believe that Dumbledore did not know, after all, he could understand the parseltongue language.
Coupled with the fact that Li Xuan has not been able to find a trace of the basilisk recently, the basilisk has not even returned to the old nest, and he can't find it alone, then mobilize the power of the masses, the power of the people is endless!
I didn't say it before, it was because no one asked, and now someone asked, then I said it along the water.
"That's right, it's the basilisk, a large snake born from the male eggs hatched by the black wizard's despicable Helbo from toads, and it dies immediately when it looks at its eyes, while it petrifies when it looks indirectly."
I have investigated, Lady Lores and Colin should have encountered a basilisk, and they both looked at the basilisk indirectly, otherwise it would not be petrified but directly died.
In the days when Lady Loris was killed, the weather was cold and humid, and there was a lot of stagnant water in the castle, and there was a large pool of water on the ground where Lady Loris was killed, everyone should have an impression.
And Colin Creevey, when he was found, was holding up the camera, and you can see his petrified appearance, still holding the camera in the posture.
"So Lady Lores saved her life by looking at the basilisk indirectly through the reflection of the water in the ground, while Colin Creevey passed the camera, fortunately they all looked at each other indirectly, otherwise they would definitely be dead."
Li Xuan's words naturally also remembered what happened on the night of Lady Loris's murder, and many little wizards had drunk potions because of this.
And when watching that night, many little wizards accidentally stepped on the stagnant water on the ground causing their pants and shoes to get wet, but they complained when they went back, as for Colin Creevey's affairs were better confirmed, there were no fewer little wizards to see him in the past two days, and finally Madam Pomfrey had to change a separate ward for Colin Creevey alone, so that the door could be locked.
These little wizards came and went, but they greatly hindered Madam Pomfrey's work and the rest of other patients.
Coupled with the fact that the little wizards of Ravenclaw are all erudite, Li Xuan pointed out the basilisk like this, then naturally other little wizards who have seen the basilisk information and recalled began to popularize science from others.
After all, being a good teacher is also one of human nature!
