Chapter 563
"impossible."
"How long has it been since you paid attention to this painting?"
John said calmly: "Maybe after you get rid of yourself in the painting, there will be no more."
Helena's face darkened and she said sarcastically: "Ravenclaw will not take unimportant things to heart."
"No matter how smart you are, it's impossible to find her." John shook his head slightly, "Helena is such an arrogant and conceited person."
Feeling insulted, Helena was about to get angry when she saw John coming to the painting.
He tapped the painting and listened to the sound.
"It's empty behind here."
"What?"
Helena flew over, and John was already touching his chin and said: "Maybe it can be opened with a password. Do you have any password?"
"No!" Helena said angrily, "You can try the famous quotes you saw."
"It makes sense." John nodded and said, "Extraordinary wisdom is the greatest wealth of mankind."
The painting didn't move. John tried several more methods, but all failed.
"Greedy predator." Helena spoke. When John looked over, she said angrily, "This is the hidden meaning of Ravenclaw."
"Well, it seems there's nothing you can do, Helena." John shrugged.
As he finished speaking, he saw the picture frame open, revealing a tunnel leading deep behind.
John blinked.
The password is Helena?
So he smiled at Helena and said: "No matter how smart you are, you can't find it."
Helena also expressed surprise at this password.
She never expected that Rowena Ravenclaw would use her daughter's name as a password.
Thinking of this, she fell silent.
"Maybe Ravenclaw doesn't value you as much as you think."
John walked into the doorway and asked Helena: "Can you come in?"
"Can."
Helena floated inside.
Behind the doorway, there are rows of bookshelves shrouded in bright light.
"Look, her pursuit of knowledge." Helena felt complicated when she saw this scene.
Until her death, her mother was still pursuing knowledge.
But John frowned, staring ahead blankly.
His system was silent.
This is not Ravenclaw's Chamber of Secrets.
…
Chapter 578 Supreme Wisdom, Mother
Although it is a small transparent system, it is invisible most of the time.
But there is one thing the system does very well, it will remind you responsibly.
However, after John entered the secret room, he did not hear the system's beep.
This means that the place where he is is not the Ravenclaw's secret room.
Walking to the bookshelf, John took down a book.
He originally thought it was just an ordinary magic book.
But after opening it, it was densely packed and filled with notes.
Open the next book and it will be the same.
At a glance, he realized that the books here were probably all books that Rowena Ravenclaw had taken notes on.
The knowledge in those books has been verified and practiced by Ravenclaw, and any errors will be corrected.
With such a large workload, Ravenclaw's knowledge reserve in various fields has reached an astonishing level.
Although Helena is a ghost, she has the ability to open books.
Seeing my mother's handwriting, it seemed that she was not in a bookshelf, but in a cage.
This is a cage called knowledge, endless knowledge, trapping his mother.
She slowly passed through one bookshelf after another.
"You have proven that you are smarter than me." Helena laughed at herself, "I never discovered this place."
"Is it because I haven't, or because I don't want to?" John said straight to his heart.
For nearly a thousand years, Helena visited every corner of Hogwarts.
"Do you hate this painting," John put the book back, "or are you afraid of seeing such a scene?"
"Yes, I'm afraid." Helena said in a depressed mood, "Knowledge is indeed the most important thing to her."
She took out a book and looked at the notes on it.
"There's no me up here."
As the daughter of Rowena Ravenclaw, she still couldn't compete with the precious knowledge.
Helena said: "This proves everything."
"Not necessarily." John shook his head and pointed to the end of the small library.
Helena looked over and saw a painting hanging at the end.
The moment she saw the painting, Helena's eyes widened in disbelief.
"how come……"
The woman in the painting has long black hair. She has an intoxicating beauty and a wisdom that impresses everyone.
Without wearing the crown that symbolized wisdom, the woman looked at Helena lovingly.
Helena murmured to herself: "Mother."
Rowena Ravenclaw.
A painting of the co-founder of Hogwarts remains here.
Seeing her daughter, Rowena smiled and said, "I've been waiting for you, Helena."
"Wait for me?" Helena was confused.
"Helena." John came to her side and looked at the painting and said, "I think this is you."
Helena saw a girl as delicate as a doll beside Ravenclaw.
The girl saw Helena and hid behind the Ravenclaw in fear.
That was her, the little Helena whom she had driven away.
"Are you taking care of her?" Helena looked complicated.
After being driven away, little Helena comes to this painting.
Ravenclaw was taking care of his daughter, even in the painting.
At that moment, something crystal seemed to flash from the corner of Helena's eyes.
Do ghosts shed tears?
John looked at the painting and said, "The real secret room should be behind this painting."
"Do you know the password?"
Helena said: "Treasure."
Little Helena in the painting said crisply: "The password is correct."
That's what Helena heard from Ravenclaw when she was a child.
treasure.
Precious things.
She always thought it would be herself when she was a child.
The painting slowly opened, revealing a door.
Helena didn't dare approach that familiar door.
John walked over, stretched out his hand and pushed it away slowly.
That's a room.
There are childish toys and a princess-like dressing table inside.
The blue ceiling is painted with star patterns.
A cradle stood there.
On the surrounding walls, there are portraits of little Helena.
[Ding, Ravenclaw’s secret room was discovered]
John stopped and stood at the door, thoughtfully.
"I've always wanted to tell you." The Ravenclaw portrait walked in, "You are the most precious to me."
Ravenclaw looked at Helena lovingly, "You surpass everything I have ever learned, Helena."
This is the so-called knowledge of Ravenclaw.
Knowledge as a mother.
Learn to love.
Helena walked in and reached through the things she had once used.
From babbling to the later escape.
She hated portraits because her mother would draw them for her when she was a child.
After knowing that she could not surpass the position of knowledge in her mother's heart, she never stayed.
And those in the past are all in that room.
Myself in wizard robes, my self reading books, my naughty self.
In each portrait, Helena seems to have lost track of time.
Until the last picture, his mother Ravenclaw stood beside him.
"I'm sorry, Helena." Ravenclaw said, "It wasn't until you left that I truly understood the supreme wisdom of loving you."
"Mother."
Helena smiled, and tears like smoke fell from the corners of her eyes.
These are the tears of ghosts, like the floating silver glow.
John stretched out his hand to catch it, it was light and textureless.
"It's me, I shouldn't be willful," Helena cried, "I shouldn't be jealous, I shouldn't be angry, I shouldn't not see you."
"Helena, there is nothing wrong." Ravenclaw opened his arms and walked out.
In the portrait, Ravenclaw steps out of the canvas, her body glowing with silvery white.
Gently, hug your daughter.
