Chapter 72
that person?
Harry's heart was beating fast, and he felt like he was about to grasp the truth.
"What do you mean?" His hands were shaking with excitement as he scribbled this sentence on the paper.
The ink was quickly absorbed, and a line of words resurfaced.
"This diary contains some terrible truths, some hidden truths that some people don't want others to see."
Harry took deep breaths as if he had just finished running. He tried to calm down, but his intuition told him that this time he had found the truth about the Chamber of Secrets.
He wrote this sentence on the paper: "Do you know about the secret room?"
"The secret room? Has it been opened again? That scary monster. When I was in fifth grade, the secret room was opened, and the monster inside attacked several students..."
There was no concealment in the diary. Harry knew it was a basilisk. He quickly wrote a response to Riddle on the paper.
He looked like a good student who studied hard, but the more he looked at him, the more frightened he became.
Tom Riddle knew about the Chamber of Secrets and how dangerous it was.
Harry is only one step away from the truth.
He wrote on the paper: "Do you know who the murderer is?"
"Rubber Hagrid, he is a giant hybrid who was discriminated against by the students. In order to gain attention, he deliberately released monsters."
This line of words made Harry feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
He felt a little out of breath. He stabilized his trembling right hand with his left hand and wrote with difficulty: "Is it okay if I am not a pure blood?"
"The Heir of Slytherin picks only the good and the evil."
Everything comes full circle.
Harry leaned back in his chair and stared blankly at the diary.
John Wick was born as a Muggle wizard and was at the bottom of Slytherin.
In order to make himself noticed, he opened the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets and used the basilisk inside to establish his authority.
"Why are you like this, John."
Harry said sadly, feeling sorry for his friend's turn for the worse, and at the same time an idea came to his mind.
I want to stop John, I can't let him go wrong.
Like Tom Riddle stopping Hagrid.
Harry didn't realize that he was even suspicious of Hagrid.
If it were in the past, he would never be like this. At most, he would suspect that Hagrid opened it accidentally.
But now, not only did he not feel anything was wrong, on the contrary, he confirmed the idea.
In the diary, young Tom Riddle showed an irrepressible smile.
He was holding the same diary as Harry's and took out a pen to write in it.
"I know where the entrance to the secret room is. If the secret room opens again, I hope you can stop it."
Harry's eyes lit up when he saw where the Chamber of Secrets was. He seemed to see himself stopping John, becoming the hero of the whole school, and shaking hands with Dumbledore.
"I will," Harry wrote firmly.
…
"Harry, boy, where have you been these days?"
John blocked people after class, but Harry ran away.
He was a little helpless and didn't know what was wrong with Harry. He had never seen him so busy usually.
John didn't think Harry was hiding from him on purpose. After all, he had a good relationship with Harry.
He heard Hermione's strong footsteps on the floor and asked with some confusion: "Hermione, have you found Harry?"
Chapter 84 Hagrid’s accident and the whereabouts of his diary
Hearing John's inquiry, Hermione reluctantly said, considering that both parties were friends, "Harry is studying in the library."
She wanted to say that Harry suspected John, but was afraid that both friends would leave at the same time.
When John heard that he was in the library, he stood up immediately.
He didn't want Harry to escape this time. He was a Parseltongue himself, so you should open the door for me.
Arriving at the library, John didn't find Harry.
He was completely speechless now. He was a rat, right? He could hide so well.
Taking out the Marauder's Map, John saw that Harry had returned to the Gryffindor dormitory.
"How about it be so quick?"
Putting away the map, John held his forehead.
This Harry, who usually enjoys his night outs, is more honest now.
Walking towards the Slytherin dungeons, John met Ernie and heard him ranting.
"The heir of Slytherin has been found, it's gamekeeper Rubeus Hagrid!"
John almost tripped over the raised stone bricks and exclaimed: "Who are you talking about?"
Ernie Macmillan saw John and said happily: "Rubeus Hagrid, I just saw people from the Ministry of Magic going to him and taking him away."
Everyone in Hogwarts was a little confused when they heard the news. That silly-looking Hagrid was actually the heir of Slytherin?
John walked out quickly, meeting Hagrid before he was sent away.
Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge personally led the group, and he also saw Lucius Malfoy among them.
Hermione and Ron also ran over, and they pleaded with Dumbledore: "Professor Dumbledore, they must have made a mistake."
"I'm sorry Miss, we need to get Rubeus Hagrid away as soon as possible."
As long as Cornelius Fudge doesn't involve his position, he can treat people well.
Dumbledore looked unhappy and Hagrid looked depressed.
When Hermione saw this, she was very anxious: "Where are you taking him?"
"Azkaban, I'm sorry, this has happened before."
Fudge looked at the time, and he was a little impatient.
Lucius Malfoy smiled sarcastically, as if all this was his plan.
John said to Hagrid calmly: "Don't worry, I will rescue you."
"Save? This little wizard seems not to know the dangers of Azkaban."
Lucius Malfoy looked at John arrogantly and scornfully, and said mockingly: "Unless you go in, you can only see him in your memories."
John met the gaze and said calmly: "Really, then we can wait and see."
This attitude made Lucius Malfoy's face darken. He thought of something, smiled sarcastically, and left with the Ministry of Magic.
Ron couldn't believe it. They took Hagrid away like this. He looked at Dumbledore and said, "Professor Dumbledore, what should you do."
"Sorry Weasley, now we just have to wait."
After Dumbledore finished speaking, he looked at John. He was a little curious about how John would save Hagrid.
John looked at the Ministry of Magic leaving, with a strange color in his eyes and a sneer on his lips.
"The Ministry of Magic is not a one-person Ministry of Magic," he murmured.
The incident exploded at Hogwarts, and Harry saw it.
Uncharacteristically, he did not come out to help, but said to himself: "I should help."
John returned to the dormitory, and Basil sent out several letters.
After some time, Hagrid, who was supposed to be sent to Azkaban, was miraculously detained at the Ministry of Magic.
It's a miracle.
I heard Lucius Malfoy was furious about this.
He teamed up with other Hogwarts school directors to temporarily suspend Dumbledore. He thought that everything would be fine after Dumbledore was dismissed, but he did not expect that someone would interfere.
Alex Belby, recently awarded the Order of Merlin First Class, put pressure on the Ministry of Magic, while Rufus Scrimgeour of the Auror Office also advocated for detention.
This made Lucius's calculations fail.
And all of this is because of the letter John wrote.
Lucius never imagined that the little wizard he looked down on could have so much energy.
…
"Are there 20 sets of amulets and strike rings in the Auror office?"
John looked at the conditions proposed by Rufus Scrimgeour. They had not known each other for a long time, and the other party would not help for free.
The Auror office is very interested in the equipment that John sent last time. Aurors are a dangerous profession. You don't know when a dark wizard will appear and cast a death curse on you.
Amulets are a good solution to this problem, especially the Whomping Willow Amulet, which is extremely sensitive and will be alerted by simple malice.
"Dharma Alex is honest, so he helped for free this time."
After getting a reply from Damo Alex, John had a toothache.
This kind of free help is the real favor.
He thought for a while, took out his notes, turned to a page and copied them.
Putting this note in an envelope and asking Basil to send it, John felt that Damo Alex would be interested in this research.
If it succeeds, it might be a breakthrough in history.
"I originally wanted to find someone else, but it seems I won't be able to use them."
Closing the silver-covered contacts list, John breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the Ministry of Magic is not sure whether it is Hagrid, otherwise the attitude would not be so relaxed.
"We need to find the diary and enter the secret room as soon as possible."
He was worried that something might happen if he continued to delay.
in the following time.
John began to guard Harry with the Marauder's Map.
It just felt like Harry had taken the Marauder's Map, and he could avoid it accurately every time.
Over time, John also learned that Harry was avoiding him. Although he didn't understand why Harry suddenly distanced himself, he knew that he couldn't catch Harry.
In this case, John decided to try another approach.
He called for Malfoy.
"Draco, it's time to test your results."
Malfoy was stunned for a moment, and most of them didn't understand clearly, but he understood that John asked him to catch Harry.
Malfoy would not refuse such a good thing. As long as it could make Potter embarrassed, he would be happy to accompany him.
Before the plan was implemented, there were changes on John's side first.
Daphne found John and told him about Pansy's recent love affair.
"She seemed to be in love with an invisible person. I saw her talking to herself several times."
Daphne is frightened by her best friend's recent strange behavior, as if Pansy has been cursed.
As soon as John heard that Pansy had written a diary, his mind suddenly became alert.
"You mean diary?"
John grabbed Daphne's hand with some excitement and asked, "Do you know what she wrote?"
