Chapter 27 Ms. Grey

After getting useful information from Bloody Ronnie, Finny said goodbye to him and returned to the Slytherin lounge alone.

He did not go directly to the abandoned women's bathroom on the second floor, because he knew very well that even if he did not find anything, he must be watched by others.

The person watching him might be the professor or a little wizard.

The professor was probably afraid that he would suffer something, and the little wizard was probably because of the request of the elders in his family.

In the past few years, those families that were once pitted by Finny because they tried to attack the Black family have almost recovered now.

But now that Finny has entered Hogwarts, they have no way to attack Finny directly unless he is no longer in Hogwarts.

That is why they let the little wizards watch Finny, trying to find his mistakes, and then put pressure on Dumbledore to expel him.

You must know that wizards expelled from Hogwarts can break their wands, that is to say, as long as Finny is expelled, he will be a lamb to be slaughtered.

Finney knew this very well, so he chose to return to the lounge and wait for the opportunity. Moreover, a more important issue was that Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets was definitely not something that anyone could easily open. There must be some conditions. In his memory, the original book seemed to have some relationship with Snake Old Tunes. If he remembered correctly, then if he wanted to open the Chamber of Secrets, he could only wait for Harry to come to school in two years to find a way.

However, apart from the clues about Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets, he had no idea whether the other three had left behind any inheritance or had corresponding chambers of secrets.

Should he give up this task?

To be honest, Finney was unwilling to do so. The rewards of this task itself were very rich. The first stage alone could improve the talent of a designated magic or skill, although it was only one level higher.

However, think about it from another angle. If the designated talent for Transfiguration was one level higher, then all talents for Transfiguration magic would be one level higher. Or if it was one level higher for Alchemy, Finney would directly have the talent for Alchemy or even learn Alchemy directly. Although it was only learning, it was not considered profound, but you had to know that it was something he had never touched before.

Moreover, the inheritance itself is actually part of the reward, and it may even bring Finny far more benefits than the reward of the task.

Since he is unwilling to give up this task, he can only continue to investigate.

In addition to Slytherin, Finny's second choice is Ravenclaw, because if the matter about Barrow is not a rumor, then Mrs. Grey is actually Helena, the daughter of Ravenclaw.

Finny is not a person who will act immediately after having a little guess. He usually makes sure that his guess is correct and there will be no other accidents before he takes action.

At this time, he is not sure whether Mrs. Grey is Helena.

Naturally, he can't ask Barrow about this matter. If Mrs. Grey is really Helena, then Barrow is the one who killed her, and he is also the one who has been pursuing her and admiring her.

If Finny really asks, he may offend these two ghosts once and for all.

Therefore, he needed to confirm his guess first.

So, Finny once again entered a cycle of crazy reading and searching for books, and had no energy to care about the attitudes of other little wizards towards him.

So, such a scene appeared in Hogwarts: a little wizard who would hold a book and read wherever he went, and some other little wizards who looked at him with strange eyes. The boundaries between them were clear, as if there was an invisible wall separating them.

Finally, a few days later, Finny found some information in an unofficial history about the four founders of Hogwarts after its establishment.

When Helena was young, she tried to become as smart as her mother, or even better than her mother, to become smarter and more famous, so she stole the crown and fled to Albania.

It was a country where mountains and hills occupied three-quarters of the entire land. Except for the coastal areas which were plains, the rest of the place was mountains, hills, and trees. The mountainous environment made it the best place to avoid secular pursuit. At the same time, that place was also one of the places with the most known magical relics.

After Helena left, Ravenclaw did not get angry or anxious to look for her, but waited for her return. However, Helena did not come back until she was seriously ill, even though Ravenclaw knew where Helena was at that time.

In order to see his daughter for the last time before he died, Ravenclaw found a nobleman who had always loved her since he was young, Sir Barrow, to go to Albania to find her. Sir Barrow was also a powerful wizard. He found Helena outside the forest of Albania and told her about Ravenclaw. Unfortunately, Helena thought that Barrow was deceiving her at that time. In the end, the two had a dispute, and Barrow accidentally killed his beloved Helena.

After waking up, Barrow finally chose to escape in the complex emotions of guilt, sadness, and regret. He raised the knife that killed Helena and committed suicide in front of her body.

After Helena died, she found out that she was wrong and that Ravenclaw was indeed seriously ill. Her reluctance to leave her mother and her regret for herself made her choose not to leave, but to stay and return to her home, Hogwarts. However, when she returned, Ravenclaw had died.

So, she changed her name to Ms. Grey and became the ghost of Ravenclaw. Similar to her, Barrow also came to Hogwarts and became the ghost of Slytherin.

Finney closed the book in his hand with a heavy look. The things recorded in the book were roughly the same as his speculations. He just didn't know how the author knew the details about Helena, Ravenclaw, and Barrow.

Finney looked down at the author's name on the title page of the book, but found that there was no name written there, only a capital S. The author wrote this book under a pseudonym, and the things recorded in this book were not only the stories of Ravenclaw and Helena, but also the stories of the other four founders.

This was not the most surprising thing for Finney. What Finney found most difficult to accept was that this book was not published, but was a collection of books of a family, or a heritage book. However, for some unknown reason, it was circulated in the magic world.

The one who sold the book to Finney was a werewolf wizard in the magic world. During this period, wolf poison potion had not yet appeared, and the treatment of werewolves was very poor. The werewolf sold Finney not only various books, but also some ancient magic items.
