Study Days at Hogwarts

  Chapter 633 Hermione's New Discovery

  After leaving Hagrid's hunting lodge, Albert was in a happy mood.

   Finally got Hagrid to arrange it!

   As for how to prove that Voldemort is the criminal, it is natural to compare Tom Riddle with Voldemort's name, and then use the remaining letters to form Tom Riddle's middle name.

Of course, this statement cannot convince most people, but the person Albert wants to convince is Dumbledore. For Dumbledore who knows Tom Riddle, he can naturally understand the meaning of Albert's words .

Albert doesn't know whether solving the mystery of Hogwarts' Chamber of Secrets, uncovering the real culprit of the attack, and helping Hagrid clear up the grievances of fifty years ago will allow him to win the Special Contribution Award. After these, tasks such as "Secret Digger", "Unspeakable Secret", "Wrong Decision", and "Injustice" on the panel can probably be completed.

   As for dealing with the basilisk in the secret room, that's really not his business.

What makes Albert hesitate now is whether to do the "PUBG Mobile" mission. Now Tom Riddle's anger may have been transferred to Lockhart. The mission is to let him escape successfully in the attack. The rewards are great indeed, but risking your life to dance with the basilisk.

   It's really hard to say whether it's worth it to risk your life.

   Returning to the castle along the green grass path, and passing through the laughing crowd, Albert couldn't help but sigh in his heart: ignorance is sometimes a kind of happiness, at least there is no need to worry about the upcoming danger.

   How many people in Hogwarts school know the turbulent undercurrent beneath the calm?

   Albert took out the tracking parchment from his pocket to check the location of Ginny Weasley.

  When will Tom Riddle do it again?

   Easter?

   Albert thinks it is probably Easter. Ever since he came to Hogwarts, Easter has been restless every year.

  When I was in the first grade, I ran into the Forbidden Forest alone in the middle of the night to rescue the Weasley twins.

  In the second grade, he teamed up with Isobel to kill Ronald Smith.

  When I was in the third grade, I broke through the protection mechanism of the Philosopher's Stone with three roommates.

  What about fourth grade?

  Escaped from the pursuit of the basilisk alone?

No.

  Albert prefers the plot where he tricks the heir of Slytherin around and finally escapes safely from the basilisk.

   "Albert, I finally found you."

  When Albert wanted to enter Feifei, a familiar voice not far away called him.

  He raised his head and looked at Hermione, who was panting slightly, and asked in surprise, "Is there anything you can do with me?"

  Several girls around looked at Hermione, and whispers quickly filled the entire corridor.

Hermione glanced at the gossiping girls around her, then turned her eyes away and said to Albert: "I found some new clues about the incident last time, we'd better find a place where no one is talking, it's not suitable here Say those things!"

   "Oh, you really care about it!" Albert looked at Hermione in surprise, and reminded in a low voice, "However, you'd better not run around in the castle alone, it's not safe now."

   "I've always paid attention to my safety." Hermione pinched the mirror Albert gave her in her pocket and said affirmatively.

   While talking, the two had already walked outside the castle.

   "Did you go to see Hagrid just now?" Hermione asked suddenly.

"Well, I'm going to tell Hagrid about the recent discovery. You also know that this matter is related to Hagrid. Anyway, we have to investigate, so I will help him find out what happened fifty years ago." Albert didn't intend to hide it. Well, Hermione is not the two idiots Harry and Ron, she has a sharp mind, even if Albert doesn't say anything, Hermione can guess something by herself.

  Hermione asked curiously: "Do you already know who opened the secret room fifty years ago?"

   "You want to know?" Albert asked back.

   "Yeah!" Hermione nodded.

   "Curiosity will kill the cat." Albert didn't intend to tell the other party right now, and Miss Granger obviously didn't realize that she was in danger. After all, Hermione was petrified by the basilisk in the novel, but I don't know if she will encounter such a thing this time.

   "Dangerous?" Hermione asked, blinking.

   "Tell me, what do you want from me?" Albert changed the subject.

  Hermione curled her lips, did not continue to ask, and brought the topic back. "Remember when Harry said that a student lost his life in an attack fifty years ago."

"Actually, Colin is very lucky. If it wasn't for the camera, he would definitely be dead." Albert's tone was cold, "You guys underestimate the threat of the basilisk, that monster can really kill with eyes other creatures."

   "You mean..." Hermione was taken aback by Albert's words, "The eyes of the basilisk can really kill people?"

   "Do you still remember that sentence in the book?" Albert recited softly, "The stare of the basilisk can also cause death. Anyone who meets its gaze will die immediately."

   "Colin was petrified, but he didn't look directly into the eyes of the basilisk, so the power of the curse was weakened, causing him to be petrified instead of directly losing his life."

  Hermione fell into a brief silence. She finally understood why Albert was so cautious, and why people died fifty years ago.

   "I suspect that the crying Myrtle is the student who was killed by the eyes of the basilisk." Hermione said her guess, "I suspect that she may be the girl who died on the second floor of the castle..."

   Albert made a boo gesture.

   "You already knew?" Hermione asked in a low voice, looking around.

   "Yes, I guessed it." Albert nodded and admitted directly, "However, I haven't verified it yet, and now is not the time to reveal the answer."

"why would you say so?"

  Hermione was a little confused and didn't understand the meaning of this sentence. Shouldn't she ask Weeping Myrtle to clarify the matter?

  Hermione came to Albert to invite him to ask Myrtle together.

   As for Harry and Ron?

   Just tell them after the fact.

   In Hermione's opinion, Albert is undoubtedly more reliable than the two.

"I haven't found the heir of Slytherin yet." Albert explained the reason to Hermione, "In fact, Professor Dumbledore knows these things better than us, and he is also waiting for the heir of Slytherin to show his flaws, and then Then solve this matter perfectly to ensure that the secret room will not be opened again, or similar attacks will occur again."

   At this moment, an owl flew towards this direction and threw an invitation letter tied with a ribbon to Albert.

  Hermione looked at the invitation letter in surprise, a little curious about who would send the invitation letter to Albert, but she refrained from asking, for fear of making the other party angry.

   Albert stuffed the invitation letter into his pocket, smiled and said to Hermione: "An invitation from an old friend, I hope I can spare time to attend their party during the Easter holiday."

   "You are amazing." Hermione admired Albert loyally, not all wizards can get along well with those famous wizards.

   "You can do it too." Albert said, "I have a hunch that this matter will be resolved before the end of the semester, and there is no need for the three of you to get involved."

   "What about you?" Hermione asked, frowning.

   "I never put myself in danger." Albert said confidently. After speaking, he turned and walked towards the castle.
