A Professor of Magic at Hogwarts Chapter 65: Dumbledore’s heir?
When the trio came out of the school hospital, they had warm smiles on their faces—just now, in recognition of their outstanding courage, Dumbledore gave each of them two hundred points and shared Won the special contribution award of the school.
Of course, some numbers need to be excluded from the bonus points - the past violations of school orders will not be investigated, but some of today's behaviors - the trio violated the ban and each deducted 20 points for going out. Fifty points for Professor Hart's misconduct, plus a month's confinement.
Even so, they won 490 points for their academy in one go.
This basically means that Gryffindor has secured the Academy Cup in advance.
"I think it's worth it!" Even Ron, who was going to be locked up for a month, had no objection.
If he won the Quidditch championship again, this year would be perfect... Harry thought greedily, but there is still a chance!
At the end of the conversation, Harry and Dumbledore had a private conversation. In this private conversation, he mustered up the courage to express the doubt that had troubled him for a long time, that is, whether he was assigned to the wrong house. It is strongly implied that he would achieve great things in Slytherin.
But Dumbledore's words reassured him completely, and he pointed to the Gryffindor sword on the table and said to him: "Only a real Gryffindor can pull it out of the hat."
He also figured out the reason why he could speak Parseltongue. According to the headmaster, Voldemort transferred part of his abilities into his body that night.
This left Harry dumbfounded.
"Living according to your own wishes is more meaningful than entangled in the past that cannot be changed." Dumbledore said to him.
……
It was completely dark, but the shadow that had hung over Hogwarts for two full months had finally dissipated.
Ron suddenly said, "What do you mean by what Professor Haipu said just now? It's Gryffindor, Slytherin, etc..."
Harry thought about his behavior tonight, and said emotionally: "I guess, it may be a quality that different houses value? It's like the courage that Gryffindor appreciates, and the calm and self-control that Slytherin admires." .”
"If you don't tell me, I almost forgot that Professor Haip is a Slytherin." Ron muttered softly.
Hermione didn't speak. She remembered that in her first private rune class, Professor Haip was particularly interested in the Sorting Hat. His original words were "Maybe we should find an opportunity to re-introduce ourselves to it? "
The little witch thinks that this professor is just looking for an excuse to put on the sorting hat again...
When they returned to the common room, the three of them hid in a corner and exchanged their information in detail. Hermione's words surprised them the most. The three professors stood aside from the beginning to the end.
"How could they do this?" Ron said indignantly, but several times he felt that he was going to die.
"With them here, our lives are not in danger." Hermione analyzed rationally.
"I just want to know why we are desperately killing the basilisk while they are watching!" Ron was still full of complaints.
"I think, Principal Dumbledore may want to test us, remember last year?" Harry said thoughtfully, "Voldemort is not dead, that's what Dumbledore told me at the time, he said , Voldemort will return one day."
"Could it be that Dumbledore wants to train us as heirs to resist Voldemort?" Ron said with a flushed face, as if just saying this inference was enough to excite him, "Dumbledore is not young, I mean, it's time for him to think about it, too, right?"
Dumbledore's heir sounds far more perfect than Slytherin's heir.
The three of them couldn't help breathing rapidly at the same time.
Chamber of Secrets.
Dumbledore, Snape, Felix, and Professor McGonagall stood beside the corpse of the basilisk. Professor McGonagall was here for the first time, and she couldn't help but look at the place.
"It's like a dark and scary lair," she whispered.
Felix touched the basilisk's pupils with his fingers—most of them were destroyed by Fox, and black blood stained most of the snake's face. He managed to collect some clean materials.
He is very interested in the Basilisk's talent of "staring at everyone to death", which is why he is extremely afraid of the Basilisk - but it's just a fear, he has too many ways to avoid directly looking at it.
However, what he was curious about was what would happen if Dumbledore and the Basilisk looked at each other?
Will Dumbledore be killed by the Basilisk's gaze? When Felix saw the principal's terrifyingly huge source of magic power, he was shaken in his heart.
In front of wizards of this level, is the Basilisk's "Death Stare" really useful?
Just like himself, he can resist a stun spell or two.
Felix analyzed Dumbledore's strength while collecting various materials on the basilisk. There is also Professor Snape who does the same thing.
No matter it is snake venom, snake teeth, blood, scales, he will not refuse anyone.
On the other end, Dumbledore was talking in a low voice with Professor McGonagall.
"Albus, I think we should publicize it well so that the outside world can see that we have solved the trouble in the secret room, lest they talk nonsense." Professor McGonagall naturally also read the previous reports and felt angry.
"Minerva, I have no objection to this, but it will take a few days..."
"Why?"
"Lucius Malfoy has been very active in the school board recently, and he seems to think that this is a good opportunity to kick me out of the school." Dumbledore said noncommittally.
"How dare he!" shouted Professor McGonagall angrily.
"As far as I know, Lucius has threatened many school managers. Maybe in the next few days, he will attack me..."
"Dumbledore, what should we do?"
"Just wait." Dumbledore's gaze seemed to penetrate the ceiling above the chamber of secrets, seeing the scenery farther away.
Felix and Snape also preliminarily drew up a plan for dividing up the basilisk materials during a series of verbal confrontations~IndoMTL.com~ He also found Lockhart's wand, and was using the "clear water like a spring" spell After rinsing several times, except for the lingering strong odor, it is completely impossible to tell what it has experienced from the outside.
I hope Lockhart will not be disgusted.
Then, they transferred the body of the basilisk to an abandoned classroom and locked the door with magic - when the school announced the information, they would take the basilisk apart.
When Felix returned to his office, he realized that it was almost nine o'clock.
Hogwarts is still under curfew, and there are few people in the corridors, but in a few days, the bustle of the past will resume.
Sitting on the sofa, Felix was still thinking about the Chamber of Secrets.
The Chamber of Secrets has been found, and the basilisk is dead, but there is still a Slytherin heir in the castle.
Or simply, in Felix's mind, it specifically refers to a certain little wizard controlled by Voldemort's Horcrux.
How to find him/her?
In case of any serious trouble, among other things, Hogwarts will be closed for two months for a thorough inspection, which is unacceptable to him.
Felix was thinking about the countermeasures when there was a sudden knock on the door.
He pushed open the door and saw a little wizard who surprised him—Draco Malfoy.
Strangely, Malfoy's face was very pale, and there was a fine layer of sweat on the tip of his nose. He was still clutching a long scarf with dark green stripes tightly in his hand - on the other end of the scarf, about two meters away from him, was dragging an ordinary black notebook.
It can be seen that Malfoy is trying to keep himself away from that thing.
"Come in, Mr. Malfoy." Felix said, his intuition told him that he would gain a lot tonight.
