Chapter 185 Ginny's Request for Help
·
Jing Shen Tian Si
Knowing the last clue, the three of Harry immediately decided to investigate Moaning Myrtle's bathroom.
However, due to the martial law in the school, there are many people patrolling various places every day. In addition to the regulations issued by Dumbledore, the bathroom can only be used if accompanied by a teacher, especially the location of the bathroom is the first time. The next door to the scene of the attack was heavily guarded, which undoubtedly added a lot of difficulty to their investigation.
For various reasons, they couldn't find a chance to make a move for a long time.
A few weeks later, Professor McGonagall made two announcements in the auditorium.
First, the final exam will not be cancelled, and will be held on June [-] as normal.
This news struck the hearts of every student like a thunderbolt from the blue. This school year, everyone was in fear because of the secret room incident, and they were not in the mood to study hard at all.
Many scumbags even acquiesced that they would not have exams, but they did not expect the reality to be so cruel.
Professor McGonagall looked at the students with a bitter face below, and his face darkened, "Under the current abnormal situation, the school has not been closed for the purpose of allowing you to receive education, so we will inspect your students this year. The acquired knowledge is inevitable."
"Besides, there is another piece of good news to tell everyone." Professor McGonagall said excitedly, "The mandrakes can be harvested, and the students petrified tonight, ghosts, and Filch's cat will all Back to normal.
Some of them might tell us who their attacker was, and we might catch him. "
After the voice fell, strong cheers erupted in the auditorium.
After being tense for so long, the school can finally lift the martial law, and it seems that it only needs to survive tonight.
However, Aaron and others who knew the real situation were not so optimistic. It is gratifying to be able to lift the petrification of those victims, but they don't need to think about it to know that they only saw the basilisk, and the heir definitely did not appear in their sight.
It is obviously not enough to know what the murderer looks like, but also to know where the murderer is hiding.
Moreover, all the roosters raised by Hagrid had been killed. Except for the two roosters secretly captured by Aaron, the basilisk had no natural enemies in Hogwarts.
The most important thing is that Dumbledore, who sits at Hogwarts, is not there, and the heir of Slytherin already has the confidence to turn the table.
Once the opponent is pushed into a hurry, even if the professors can block the basilisk, there will definitely be a lot of casualties.
At this time, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Aaron, he slowly raised his head, and unexpectedly discovered that the person who came was Ginny Weasley.
"Ginny, what do you want from me?"
Ginny nodded anxiously, "There is something I want to tell you, and now only you can help me."
"I?"
Aaron was slightly taken aback. Although he had lived in the hut for two days, his relationship with this little girl was not that good. At most, he was just an ordinary friend.
Moreover, Ginny has several older brothers at Hogwarts, one of whom is the prefect of Gryffindor. Even if there is any trouble, there is no need to ask him, a Slytherin, for help!
"That's interesting.
Tell me what it is first, and then I will decide whether to help or not? "
"It's about the Chamber of Secrets." Ginny lowered her voice, and kept looking around while speaking, looking extremely nervous and tired.
Hearing this, Aaron immediately felt relieved, and skillfully took out an orange from Abe's pocket and put it on Ginny's tray.
"Don't worry, speak slowly."
"I, I..." Ginny said two words intermittently, a little sparkle appeared in her eyes, and there was a cry in her voice, "I'm sorry, I don't know if I did those things, but definitely It has something to do with me."
"What's the matter?" Aaron tried his best to keep his tone as calm as possible, because Ginny's current state obviously couldn't stand the stimulation.
"Diary, Tom Riddle's diary." Ginny said in a panic, her body trembling uncontrollably, "everything was fine at first, but since I got that diary, everything has become weird up."
"Okay, don't talk yet." Aaron interrupted her immediately, "You are very scared, maybe you will pass out before you finish speaking.
Next, let me ask you questions. If you don’t want to answer, you just need to nod or shake your head. Understand? "
Ginny took a deep breath, then nodded.
"Don't be nervous, be strong.
First of all, do you know the location of the Chamber of Secrets? "
Ginny shook her head.
"What about the identity of the heir?"
Ginny shook her head again, but this time she held her head in pain, "I don't know, but I think I do.
I even think that the heir to the Chamber of Secrets is myself, but I don't think it can be me, because I don't even know the most basic Parseltongue. "
"The Imperius Curse?" Aaron frowned. "Or something similar. There is no doubt that you were controlled and did things that you didn't even know about."
Ginny nodded hastily, "Yes, it must be so."
"Okay! One last question." Aaron looked directly into her eyes and asked softly, "Is Riddle's diary in your hand now?"
Ginny nodded, she had indeed stolen it from Harry's dorm.
Hearing this, Aaron fell into deep thought.
Riddle's diary, Ginny Weasley, and the multiple assaults were tied together in a dense thread in his mind.
Half a minute later, he suddenly opened his eyes wide, but his face became very serious.
"I always thought that the heir of Slytherin was the current student, but I didn't expect the other party to be more perverted than I thought."
"what do you mean?"
"The heir of Slytherin 50 years ago has never left, he has preserved himself in the form of memory, and looked for opportunities to guide others to continue the great cause of Salazar Slytherin.
Ginny, that diary is dangerous, and Tom Riddle is most likely the murderer behind it. "
Hearing this, Ginny's face instantly turned pale.
Before, she just thought that there was something wrong with Riddle's diary, but she didn't expect the problem to be so big that it could even involve the secret room incident 50 years ago.
"Help me." Ginny sobbed and grabbed Aaron's hand, as if grabbing the last straw, "Please."
"Understood, I will help you, but please don't cry first." Aaron said with a smile, "The public, I don't know what to think I have done to you!"
Ginny smiled through tears, and slowly let go of her hands, "What should I do?"
"It's very simple, bring me Riddle's diary."
"But..."
"It's okay, I know what you want to say.
The diary is difficult to destroy, but it is not impossible to destroy, as long as you find a suitable method.
But before that, I need to keep it properly and prevent it from falling into the hands of others.
Also, you have to be careful not to open it. "
Ginny nodded seriously, "I see, I'll go right away."
"Wait, don't worry.
Today's class is not over yet, if you disappear, Professor McGonagall will probably treat you as missing.
Give it to me at dinner time!Put it in a bag and don't let others see it. "
"You're still thoughtful."
"Low-key, low-key." Aaron waved his hand embarrassingly, "By the way, let me ask, why did you come to me?
Percy, Fred, George, Ron and Harry Potter, aren't they more trustworthy than me, a Slytherin? "
Ginny lowered her head, bit her lip, struggled for a while before saying timidly, "I don't want them to know, especially Harry Potter."
"I see." Aaron suddenly realized, and then gave Ginny a smile, "Don't worry, I will keep it a secret for you."
"Thank you."
Ginny took a deep breath and was about to leave when Percy walked up suddenly.
His eyes lingered on the tear stains at the corners of Ginny's eyes for a few seconds, and then turned to Aaron angrily, "Gaius, I think I need an explanation."
"Huh? Did you make a mistake?"
"That's right, Ginny obviously cried, my sister..."
"Percy." Ginny looked at him angrily and said, "You misunderstood, he didn't bully me."
"It's okay, Ginny." Percy patted her on the shoulder very concerned, "Mom and Dad have written to me more than once to ask me to take good care of you.
If you are wronged, tell me at any time, I am still the prefect of Gryffindor, I still have this power. "
"I'll say it again, you really misunderstood." Ginny was about to cry in a hurry, what if Aaron became angry and stopped helping her.
But her performance made Percy more firm in his judgment.
Ginny was definitely being bullied, and was too scared to tell the truth.
Can this be tolerated?
His younger sister was being bullied, so he, the older brother, naturally had to stand up.
He straightened the prefect's badge, and said to Aaron with a serious face, "Apologize to my sister."
Aaron looked at Percy in astonishment, the corner of his mouth twitched, and a million muddy horses galloped past in his heart.
He didn't know whether Ginny was wronged or not, but he knew very well that he had been wronged greatly.
Obviously he was going to take a huge risk to deal with a magic item, but he didn't expect to have to endure a wave of psychological shock first.
"Percy, did you listen to me?
I said it was a misunderstanding, why don't you believe it? "
Seeing Ginny's bewildered look, Percy calmed down a little, "Then tell me, why are you crying?"
"I..." Ginny opened her mouth, hesitated to speak, but could not utter a word.
What does this make her say?You can't tell Percy Riddle about the diary!
Although she is not the murderer, she is also inseparable from this series of attacks. If it gets out, she may be expelled from the school.
"Okay, needless to say." Aaron saw Ginny's embarrassment, and stood up directly, "Isn't it just an apology, it's no big deal."
"No." Ginny kept shaking her head, "You don't have to, you can't, and there's no need to do it."
"But the problem is that I can only do this now, and treat it as protecting a certain little girl!" Aaron shrugged helplessly, and then said sorry to Ginny.
"Satisfied, Prefect of Gryffindor?"
"You're smart, but ten points for Slytherin."
"Enough." Ginny shook Percy's arm angrily, and gave him a hard look. "I really hate you."
After finishing speaking, she gave Aaron an apologetic look, and ran away quickly.
However, due to the martial law in the school, there are many people patrolling various places every day. In addition to the regulations issued by Dumbledore, the bathroom can only be used if accompanied by a teacher, especially the location of the bathroom is the first time.
