Liu Yue Zhi Yuan Fei
Douglas was in full view.
After a few jumps, it disappeared at the head of the stairs.
This made the three following behind feel that it is good to be young.
There was also a commotion among the students in the auditorium.
They really wanted to follow to see what happened, Professor Holmes was so nervous.
But he was appeased by the joint prefects of Professor Sprout and Professor Flitwick.
When Douglas came to the nearest stairway to the bathroom, it happened that the stairway had been moved to another location.
Dumbledore called from behind:
"Wait, Douglas!
In the end what happened? "
Then Douglas spotted the staircase and moved back.
It seems that Dumbledore used the headmaster's authority.
Douglas said only one thing:
"The Chamber of Secrets... Voldemort!"
The three behind were taken aback, and Professor McGonagall shivered even more.
Dumbledore and Snape looked at each other.
At this moment, Douglas had stepped up the still moving stairs.
And when the stairs approached the corridor, he jumped over.
Run straight towards the bathroom.
When he got to the bathroom, there was no one there.
Douglas inspected each compartment carefully.
Also no one.
At this time, the latter three had also arrived.
Professor McGonagall said incredulously:
"You mean the legendary Slytherin Chamber of Secrets, right here in the ladies' room?
And the mystery... I mean Voldemort is in the castle too?
like last year?
Douglas, how do you know? "
With that said, Professor McGonagall has drawn out his wand, with a look of vigilance in his eyes.
I don't know if it is against Douglas, or against possible enemies.
Douglas surveyed the bathroom,
He didn't know whether the other party had already entered the secret room or escaped.
Hearing Professor McGonagall's question, he smiled awkwardly.
Then he pointed towards the faucet marked with a snake:
"Look there."
Snape and Dumbledore also drew their wands.
After a wary look at Douglas.
Douglas didn't take out his wand, but folded his hands on his chest consciously.
Indicates that everyone can rest assured to check.
When the three of them saw the snake-shaped mark on the faucet and the line next to it.
And a detection device was found in the pipes of the sink.
Even Dumbledore's expression was terribly gloomy.
"Professor Holmes, I hope someone can explain to me what happened tonight?"
Douglas coughed slightly.
Then Occlumency was activated, and some unimportant memories and emotions were covered on the outside.
Then he started fooling himself.
"As you can see.
I suspect this is the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets...
That was when I was in school, and out of curiosity, I asked Ms. Myrtle about the cause of her death.
According to what he said, it was in this bathroom that he saw a pair of yellow eyes...
At that time she pointed me to this sink...
Then I found the faucet and the line next to it...
later......"
Upon hearing this, Professor McGonagall interrupted Douglas:
"Wait, Douglas, why did you go into the ladies' room during school?"
The other three looked at Professor McGonagall. Is this the time to discuss this?
However, this is indeed a problem.
If Douglas cannot rationalize this reason, then everything else he said will be suspect.
Still, Douglas explained:
"Aha, you know, sometimes in order to avoid some troubles, it is inevitable to go to the wrong place..."
Speaking of which, Douglas glanced at Snape.
And Professor Snape snorted coldly, acquiescing to the answer.
Douglas continued:
"Where did I say that?
Oh yes, and then...
Later, I checked a lot of information and got a piece of news.
That is the legend about the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets that has been circulating in Hogwarts, combined with this sentence...
I made a bold guess.
That is, Voldemort is very likely to be a Slytherin, and he is likely to have a Slytherin inheritance.
This is why there is a line of words here.
【Welcome home Mr. Voldemort】
Obviously, he felt that the secret room in Slytherin was his home, and maybe this sentence was the password to open the secret room.
According to the only clues, Slytherin, snake, Parseltongue, and yellow eyes...
I went through a lot of information again, and think that the secret room is very likely to be a basilisk...
However, Myrtle had passed away for more than 40 years at that time, and I had no way of knowing a lot of information.
For example, who opened the secret chamber back then..."
Douglas said half-truth, but it also sounded very reasonable.
As for pushing his secondary school affairs on Voldemort, he didn't feel any guilt at all.
Pot, someone has to carry it!
Snape frowned slightly, thinking about the truth of Douglas' words.
Professor McGonagall asked:
"But why didn't you tell the professor what you found?"
Douglas shrugged:
"Professor, everyone knew that Voldemort was dead.
And obviously, I'm not a descendant of Slytherin, even if I find out, I can't get in the Chamber of Secrets.
In case this news gets out,
Let the group of Slytherins really be inherited, what should we do! "
Snape muttered angrily, but Douglas didn't catch it.
Snape turned around and pointed with his wand near the faucet.
It seemed that he thought he was the head of Slytherin, so he could open this secret room.
Dumbledore seemed to remember something, applauded and said:
"Excellent inference.
I also guess.
Since our conversation before school started, let you know that Voldemort is still alive.
And learned that he can enter Hogwarts through some means.
That's why you set up an alarm here,
Just to prevent Voldemort from entering Hogwarts and opening the Chamber of Secrets?
Oh, by the way, and your test for the lower grades, I guess it is also imitating the basilisk.
But how can you be sure that Voldemort will appear in the castle and release the basilisk...
After all, it was because of the Philosopher's Stone last year, and I don't think the basilisk could make him immortal..."
Douglas thought Dumbledore's eyes were harsh behind his half-moon glasses.
Although Douglas thought of a fun thing at this moment, he still didn't dare to think about it.
"Actually, I don't know...
You know, there are so many rumors about the Defense Against the Dark Arts position.....
Since I was appointed, in order to allow myself to stay in this position for a long time, at least there will be no accidents...
So, I took some small precautions against the sources of danger I could think of...
Especially the entrance to this secret room, after all, it is too close to my office...
As for that teaching, it was purely a spur of the moment..."
Hear what Douglas has to say.
Dumbledore coughed awkwardly.
Professor McGonagall didn't know what to say about you.
Snape, who was checking the entrance, also sneered disdainfully.
But then they noticed that Douglas looked serious:
"Actually, I didn't put any detectors here in the first place.
Until one day, rumors began to circulate on campus that I released that monster...
I know I didn't unleash any monsters in the castle, but I'm not sure if it's a basilisk...
So just in case, an early warning device will be installed here...
Obviously, I guessed right.....
Especially tonight, Hagrid said that his chickens were killed twice, which happened to correspond.
'The only thing that makes the basilisk go away is the crowing of the rooster, as that is fatal to the basilisk. '
Therefore, I conclude that this is definitely not some clever student who simply discovered the secret of the secret room...
Likely Voldemort himself or his followers, or the descendants of Slytherin..."
Hearing what Douglas said, the faces of the other people were a little ugly.
After a few jumps, it disappeared at the head of the stairs.
