The days passed quickly, and the days passed in a blink of an eye.
The little wizards tried their best to find clues about the secret room everywhere, and even more people were reading in the library.
However, the matter of the secret room is quite secretive. There are only a few remote books in the library that contain such fragments, and it only makes me more confused when I find it.
Ted even felt that if senior Tom hadn't opened the secret room once when he was in school, resulting in the death of a Myrtle, I'm afraid no one would know about the secret room by now.
Originally, the secret room had been circulated within the Gunter family. Later, the mentally ill members of the Gunter family intermarryed within the family and even stopped going to school, so almost no one knew about it.
I don't know where Voldemort learned this secret.
He couldn't find it in the book, so naturally curious little wizards asked the professors.
Someone asked Professor Spencer of Magic.
However, this ghost professor follows the instructions every day, doesn't care about your questions, and doesn't even remember the names of several students.
In the original book, Hermione asked the question, but he still remembered the name of the top student, so he answered the question.
But now, the unknown student's question has not been answered at all.
"I think you should pay more attention to the confirmed history in books, rather than the gossip in rumors. This classmate, sit down~"
But if one person fails, there will be another person, and the curiosity of the little wizards will not be dissipated so easily.
A third year Gryffindor asked Professor Flitwick this question.
Professor Flitwick was still very talkative, and finally talked about the rumors.
Because the secret room was opened more than fifty years ago, some rumors are still passed down.
It didn't take a whole morning for all the teachers and students in the school to know the rumors about the secret room.
"Hey, did you hear that? Slytherin placed a very dangerous curse in the Chamber of Secrets, asking his successor to rid the school of Muggle wizards!"
"Why did I hear that even half-blood wizards were killed together!"
"Ah! I heard that all wizards who do not surrender will be killed, and their souls will be enslaved after death!"
"No, I heard that he wants future generations to unify the magic world and become the Emperor of Black Magic!"
Rumors started to circulate overnight. Of course it's because there are people who are willing to help.
Ted: Yes, it was just me who gave birth to me~
Ted released some ambiguous news, and led the little wizards to think in more sinister directions, spreading rumors that were extremely outrageous at first glance.
Ted's purpose is simple.
The first is to fight rumors with rumors.
If this kind of thimble-like rumor hadn't come up, the news about the secret room would definitely be recognized by most people.
This is not good. It's better to treat it as a joke for now, so as not to panic people.
And if the Basilisk continues to commit crimes in the future, these exaggerated rumors will create pressure on Slytherin students.
By then, the three major colleges will definitely join forces to teach Snake College a lesson~
"Ding~Complete the hidden mission [Self Media (White)], and you will be rewarded with 120 experience points."
The system feels that Ted is already a mature self-media person~
Friends are also discussing this outrageous rumor.
Jerry: "If that heir wants to purify the school, he won't do it to me, right?"
He pinched his two round ears: Shushu is so cute, how can he get rid of Shushu~
Neville also looked confused: "Will he also eliminate wizards with poor grades? I've worked very hard!"
Harry and Hermione rolled their eyes.
Ted comforted: "Don't worry. It won't happen."
"You can't live with pure blood. After all, pure blood does not mean that the offspring will be outstanding. Do you think Malfoy, who talks about blood all day long, can compare with Hermione's performance?"
"If we clear it out like this, then only that so-and-so heir will be left in the end."
Having said that, the wizarding world is indeed an extremely elite-led society.
A very small number of elites push the entire magical world forward, and the rest make up the numbers.
The Dark Lord, the White Devil, the Big Four and so on.
The greatest contribution of ordinary wizards to the magical world is to continue the family line.
They couldn't even complete this task. If you don’t have children, you will often play yourself to death. So that the number of wizards is getting smaller and smaller.
Think about your contribution to mankind? This probably enriches the diversity of human beings~
…
The enthusiasm among students and friends for the secret room was far beyond Ted's imagination.
Ted has to study and practice magic every day, ponder over alchemy and the production of strange objects, and help the Weasley twins figure out research directions and overcome difficulties. Recently, he has been inspired to develop a new "magic potion."
Being so busy, how can I have time to think about that secret room?
Besides, there is such a big basilisk in there, how dangerous it is. Whoever wants to study it can study it.
But my friends don’t see it that way.
This is simply the biggest hot spot of the year. How can we let this go?
They enjoyed the discussion even when Ted was not interested. Hermione also tried to find clues in books.
But Ted's words gave them other ideas.
Harry asked: "You guys said, if Slytherin were to choose an heir, who would it be? It can't be me, right?!"
Hermione closed the book: "She should also be a Slytherin student, right?"
Jerry poked Ron in a daze: "Hey, who among your pure-blood families is related to Slytherin?!"
His question was on point.
The heir! If they were related by blood, they wouldn't run away.
Ron rolled his eyes: "There are so many pure-blood families. They have been intermarried with each other for thousands of years and are all related. If you put it that way, Neville, Harry, and I are all related to Slytherin!"
Ron curled his lips: "I'm related to Malfoy!"
Malfoy!
right! Malfoy!
Although Ted had just despised Malfoy's grades, when it came to Slytherin students, the first thing that came to Harry's mind was Malfoy.
Harry looked like there was only one truth: "Do you think Malfoy is the heir?"
Neville: "He has this motive!"
Jerry: "He's bad enough!"
"We have to try him!"
The friends think that Malfoy is the most suspicious. Even if it's not him, he must know something!
Ted almost laughed when he heard this. Harley and the others only saw students of the same grade. Aren't those more outstanding senior students more suspicious?
But just let them make trouble, and save the trouble of actually looking for the secret room. Malfoy is much safer than the basilisk.
Originally, Ted thought he would be free for a while, but unexpectedly his friends found him a job.
Harry said: "I once saw a magic potion that can completely transform into another person. We can become Malfoy's followers and tell jokes!"
Ron and Neville looked at her: I don’t study well, don’t lie to me.
Jerry quickly asked: "What magic potion?"
"It's called Polyjuice Potion."
"How to make it?"
"……have no idea!"
Jerry looked helpless: I don’t know what makes you excited?
Hermione said: "I know about this potion. I remember it was recorded in a book."
"What book? I'll find it!" Jerry was very positive.
He was really afraid that the heir to the Secret Chamber would clear him out. Becoming a wizard was no longer his alone. The entire family would benefit from this, and they must not be cleared out.
Hermione looked at Ted: ""Powerful Potion", the book seems to be in the restricted area..."
Everyone looked at Ted.
Given the relationship between Ted and Lockhart, wouldn't it be easy to get an IOU from the Restricted Book Zone?
Ted raised his hands and surrendered: "Okay, I can help you get the book, but there is no way to cook it. It will take a month. I have a very important experiment recently, so let Hermione cook it. .”
He held down Hermione who was about to retort: "Believe in yourself, you can absolutely do it."
…
At night, the bright moonlight shines into the library from the window, making it a silvery white.
Ted, who was in an invisible state, bypassed several magic traps that he had long known, avoided the vigilant bronze statue that screamed noisily when touched, and arrived in front of the forbidden book area.
Of course he wouldn't go to Lockhart to write a loan note.
There are so many books in the restricted area, how many can I borrow?
Although Lockhart certainly didn't care, it would be troublesome for other professors - mainly Dumbledore and McGonagall to know.
As a student of Hogwarts, isn't it natural to go to the restricted book section in the middle of the night and take a peek?
If a son steals from me, it is not considered stealing. But if a student steals a book, can it be called stealing? That's book stealing~
Moreover, Ted still has a mission - [Banned books are the essence of the library (red)].
Now that he is proficient in invisibility, and with "detection magic", he can greatly avoid the harm caused by those dangerous grimoires, Ted finally decided to attack the forbidden book area!
Thanks to the book friends "Charging is Justice", "The Heart Has Fallen Asleep", "Love Gate-Alicia" and "Witness the Power of Salted Fish"!
Thank you to all my book friends~
