"Explain, gentlemen!" Her eyes flicked across the faces of the three people in turn.
"Explain what?" Ron looked panicked.
"Professor Snape is right, you were not telling the truth in the office." Hermione said in an unquestionable tone, "First of all, you, Ron, you happened to be in the bathroom on the third floor, and Filch's cat It was attacked right outside that door."
"You, you won't be doubting, that's what I did?!"
"Don't be silly, Ron." Hermione waved her hand, "Professor Dumbledore said that it is a very profound black magic, and it is impossible for us to cast it. What I want to ask is, are you really Did you notice anything unusual?"
"I talked to Ivan just now. I heard a hissing sound, but I'm not sure. Myrtle has been crying very loudly."
"Maybe that's a clue." Hermione turned her head. "Harry, can you tell me what you heard?"
"The voice said it was starving, it was going to kill, and it went straight up through the castle walls like a ghost," Harry explained in a low voice, "and then we saw Filch's cat being petrified and hanging On the wall, the owner of that voice must have done it."
"But who is that, or what it is, I didn't hear any sound at that time." Hermione frowned.
"Who knows." Harry said hesitantly, "You tell me, should I tell the professors about the voice I heard?"
"Don't say it!" Ron replied without thinking. "It's not a good sign to hear voices that other people can't hear, even in the wizarding world."
Harry heard something in Ron's voice, and asked, "You trust me, don't you?"
"Of course I do," said Ron quickly, "but you've got to admit it's pretty bizarre."
"I know it's weird," Harry replied, "the whole thing is weird, you hear the hissing noise in the bathroom, and then Filch's cat gets attacked, and the writing on the wall says What's going on? The secret room was once opened, what does this mean?"
"Maybe, we should think about it from another angle. Who would feel happy that the cat was attacked?" Ron said.
"It won't work, everyone but Filch will be happy." Harry thought for a moment, "and what does this have to do with the Chamber of Secrets?"
"I mean extra happy, or who hates that cat the most." Ron added reluctantly.
"Don't guess, I do know some information, there are legends about the Chamber of Secrets." Ivan saw that Hermione did not participate in the discussion between Harry and Ron, but kept looking at him, so he had to reveal something something comes out.
Hearing his words, Harry and Ron turned their heads together and looked at Ivan in surprise.
"I think you've all read the book "A Piece of Hogwarts History"?"
"No." Harry and Ron shook their heads.
"Ivan, you mean..." Hermione seemed to think of something.
"That's right, it's the secret room left by Sarah Slater." Ivan continued, "As we all know, Hogwarts is composed of Godric Gryffindor, Helga Hufflepuff, Roy Naravenclaw and Salazar Slytherin were created by four people, they initially worked together, but as time went on, the rift between Slytherin and the others grew wider."
"Slytherin wanted Hogwarts to be more selective in its admissions. He believed that magical education should be confined to purely magical families. He was unwilling to accept Muggle children, thinking they were unreliable. After some time, Slater Lin and Gryffindor had a heated argument over this issue, and Slytherin left the school, but he left a secret room in the school that the other founders knew nothing about."
"The secret room?!"
"Yes." Ivan nodded, "The reliable written records in the book end here, but there are rumors that Slytherin sealed the secret room so that no one can open it until his real heir comes to the school .Only the heir can open the secret room, release the horrible things inside, let it purify the school, and remove all those who are not worthy of learning magic."
The dark classroom suddenly fell silent, and the atmosphere was tense and disturbing.
None of Harry, Ron, and Hermione spoke, and they all waited for Ivan to continue.
"The story is over." After a long time, Ivan said softly.
"But, what did you mean by the scary things in the Chamber of Secrets just now?" Hermione asked hastily.
"I don't know." Ivan shook his head, "It may be some kind of monster, and only the heirs of Slytherin can control it."
"It fits the style of Slytherin. I already knew that Salazar Slytherin was a perverted old lunatic." Ron continued, "But I don't know that he came up with this set of pure-blood nonsense, even if White Give me money, and I won't go into his house. To be honest, if the Sorting Hat put me in Slytherin, I would take the train home without saying a word, and see what is going on in that house people."
"Wait!" Hermione's voice rose sharply, "Think about the writing on the wall, the Chamber of Secrets was opened by the heir. And what happened to Harry heard the sound, if Filch's cat was opened by the Horror stuff petrified, then... ”
She couldn't go on, and the other three knew what she meant.
"It can't be Harry. If I had to tell you, the successor must be Malfoy. The whole family is pure blood. Maybe he happens to be a descendant of Salazar Slytherin."
"Don't think about it, Hermione, Harry has been with us just now, he doesn't have time." Ivan also said.
"I know that, of course I believe Harry, but this is very strange, isn't it, he can hear voices we can't hear." Hermione turned her gaze back to Ivan, "Speaking of which, you haven't explained yet , why have you been trying to break into Myrtle's bathroom lately?"
Seeing the interested expressions of the three people, Aiwen said inwardly, "Oops, he doesn't want to lose the image of peeping into the girls' bathroom, especially when the object of peeping is the crying Myrtle.
"Okay, okay, I'll just tell the truth." Aiwen smiled wryly, "Actually, apart from the secret room, I also have some other information."
"What is it?" The three asked in unison.
"You know, in order to prepare an article for the newspaper's history section, I went to the library and looked through the "Hogwarts Memorabilia over the Years." Evan paused, "I found a piece of paper from fifty years ago in that book." Newspaper clippings saying the Chamber of Secrets has been opened!"
"What?! Who opened it?"
"I don't know, it's not written in it." Ivan shook his head, "The above sentence is related to the secret room, and it was written by hand, but the news on the newspaper clipping is that a girl named Mettle Warren died because of an accident. She died in an accident, although I'm not sure if her death has something to do with the secret room, but that girl is... "
Ai Wen took out a yellowed newspaper from his clothes, which was a news introduction at the time, with a picture of a girl on it.
"It's... Moaning Myrtle!!!"
"That's right, it's her." Ivan said quickly, "That's why I wanted to ask her if she noticed anything."
