Chapter 30: Ghosts and statues (modified, typos modified)

"Thank you for your compliment. It's not worth mentioning, but it's just to make up for my own fault. I just want Mr. Filch's workload not to increase in vain because of our fault." Allen remained humble and vigilant He felt that Dumbledore's tone was a bit bad.

"A kind heart is precious, and with enough sense of responsibility, this quality is really shining. Mr. Harris, such a lively night, I believe you must be exhausted, come back to your Ravenclaw quickly Go to the comfortable bed in the tower, good night, good night. "

Dumbledore didn't punish him for the illegal night tour, but when he thought about Allen and took it for granted, Dumbledore had always admired the wizards with Gryffindor's bravery and adventurous spirit. Less twists and turns is the best.

Allen bowed and said goodbye to his principal and turned away.

Back to Ravenclaw again, still facing the problem of magic knockers: "Just call its name and it will destroy it, what is it?"

It was late at night, and Allen felt very tired. After a moment of thinking, he gave the answer impatiently: "Silent."

The door opened silently, and the little Ravenclaw immediately flashed in and got in.

Was about to go back to the dormitory, and Allen stopped suddenly. He felt as if someone was staring at him, looking around, and there was no one—not even a ghost.

Alan, who knew he did n’t feel wrong, did n’t rush back to his dorm. Elder brother often said at home, “Be alert at all times.” This sentence is not Albert ’s original, but a predecessor in his Auror office. Mantra. At this moment, Allen felt very reasonable, so he pulled out his wand.

Fortunately, the magic candlesticks in Ravenclaw ’s common room are for the convenience of students who like to read books all night long, so Allen can see the surroundings very clearly.

The blue curtains were blowing in the wind, but apparently, there was no one in the back, the star-studded ceiling and the rug were clear at a glance, and no one, Allen let his eyes gently bypass a row of bookshelves, glancing at all the wide The seat, there is no trace of anyone.

The quiet night was accompanied by the call of unknown insects outside the window, and the cool breeze was supposed to be a comfortable and beautiful feeling, but Alan was indeed cold and upright. This feeling of being stared at has never disappeared. All places have been checked, then only—Allen quickly walked to the alcove opposite the door and carefully observed the white marble statue of Roine Ravenclaw.

This is a particularly beautiful face, her facial features are three-dimensional, like a knife and axe. Closed lips, half-squinted eyes, and frowning brows all revealed that she was not only beautiful, but also a very stern person, but Alan looked at the statue's face and suddenly made him feel inexplicable After realizing that he was not right, he shook his head, and then he closed the brain again, and observed it again.

One hand of the statue held the wand ring over his chest and placed it above the left heart. The other hand seemed to fall naturally, but the palm made another action like invitation and explanation.

The whole statue looks like it is urging students to learn the mysteries of magic, and it is like explaining the knowledge of magic spells, and it is more like analysing a philosophy of life with a strong focus-most interestingly, no matter where you are, Roy Na Ravenclaw's pair of eyes seemed to be staring at you as if they could perceive people's hearts.

Allen failed to find anomalies on the statue, but with his keen five senses, he confirmed that this feeling of being observed came from the statue.

"I know you are hiding in the statue, come out!" Allen pointed his wand at the statue of the founder of his college.

"If I don't come out again, I will smash the statue." Allen tapped the statue gently with his wand. Later, the top of his wand shimmered, "Powder shattered--"

"Stop it, how dare you ?!" An extremely beautiful tall female ghost floated out of the statue quickly.

"Oh, it turns out to be you, Ms. Gray." Allen withdrew his wand a little embarrassedly, and he found himself almost exploding her mother.

Ms. Gray is the ghost of Ravenclaw ’s college. She, like her mother, has a very tall body and is very beautiful. Her long hair falls like a waist, her long robe and the ground, but she ca n’t hide her beautiful body. Posing, but unlike the majesty that her mother showed enough wisdom as her strength, she seemed too arrogant and unpretentious.

"Alan Harris, I know you, our Ravenclaw is the best student in recent years, and many professors are amazed by you. But I know that you have to use the magic body curse to go out very early every day, you The behavior is very strange, what are you hiding? "Ms. Gray clung to the statue, it seemed that once the signs were wrong, she would hide in-her bad experience of decades ago filled her with students who had this behavior. Vigilant.

"It turns out that you saw me in the statue. Dear lady, everyone has a little secret, but my morning exercise is not a secret. I just get up early to go out to exercise, and stealth is just to avoid trouble. School inspections are still very strict. "Allen shrugged. He had concluded that Ms. Gray was not malicious-if it was replaced by a Pippi ghost ... he was much worse than Ms. Gray.

"But I'm curious, how can you be in the statue of our college founder Royna Ravenclaw?" Allen pointed out the point of the problem, his eyes stared right. With Ms. Gray, she didn't miss the panic flashing in her translucent eyes.

"Royna Ravenclaw is my biological mother. As her only descendant, I can certainly post her statue." Ms. Gray explained.

Allen discovered the problem at once—according to Ms. Gray ’s usual personality, she might disdain to answer this kind of question, not to mention panic explanation, and it ’s common for people in the portrait to move around with each other, but the ghost is from others The statue is very rare-the crying myrtle can be sent to the toilet because the toilet has pipes and there is space for it to be taken. Ghosts can't be sent to entities ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ For example, thick walls, ghosts can let themselves pass through, but they can't hide in the walls for a long time. In this way, the statue must be empty.

In just a few moments, Allen saw that Ms. Gray was lying, so—why did she lie? What is she hiding?

"Excellent ingenuity is the greatest wealth of mankind. Your mother's beauty and wisdom coexist. As her only descendant, you are so lucky to have such a great mother." Allen put on a social face and gentle tone, decided to first Compliments a few words-after all, a predecessor has done this to her, it seems that she is quite useful to this set, although it may not be so effective after being deceived again.

"Are you lucky? Boy, after you have experienced much, you will know that extraordinary ingenuity may not be the greatest wealth, but also may bring huge disasters. Having a great mother with countless auras, maybe to each other It ’s not a beautiful thing. ”Ms. Gray seemed to be touched by the sad thing, and her tone was very sad.

"You seem to be sad ..." Allen tried to persuade, "You see, I am an outright Ravenclaw. If there is anything to ask for help from the descendants of the college's founder, I will be happy to provide what I can Provided help. "

"Maybe, after all, you are Ravenclaw, a student selected according to my mother's standards-there was also a teenager who was very similar to you, as good and handsome, he also tried to persuade me the same , But he lied to me. "Ms. Gray became angry and the expression on her transparent face became somewhat distorted.

"So what's his name? Which college student?" Allen tried his best to empathize, leading Ms. Gray to point out the difference between him and the mysterious man in the college.
