Hearing Aven's words, Harry and the three of them were eager to go back to Myrtle and ask for clarification. But that didn't work, and since that day, Filch had sat in front of the third-floor bathroom overnight with a chair, and he seemed to think that Evan would have broken in when he wasn't looking.

In fact, the four of them did intend to do so.

Now that even Hermione couldn't go in, Filch decided that Evan was the murderer of Lady Loris, and even if he didn't understand why Evan had to go into a broken girls' bathroom, that didn't stop him from stopping them.

For several days, Filch had been pacing around the place where Mrs. Loris's murder had been, trying to scrub the words on the wall with the "Mrs. Skoll Brand Miracle Stain Remover," but it was in vain, and the words still shimmered so brightly on the stone wall.

The failure to clean the walls made Filch even more hysterical.

He secretly hid in the corner of the corridor on the third floor, stared at each student who dared to approach it with two red eyes, and then suddenly pounced, trying every excuse to keep them confined, such as their "panting too loudly" or "grinning face".

"Oh my God, I'm going to get that madman out of school and get him out of school. But I only hope he has time to petrify Filch before he is expelled. After another failed attempt to get into the bathroom, Ron said so.

However, when he saw that Ginny's face beside him suddenly turned white, he hurriedly added that it was another joke.

Ginny has been in a bad state these days, and she seems to be upset about what happened to Lady Loris.

Evan secretly asked Colin if Ginny hadn't been at the Halloween party, she had been out for five minutes.

The time was a bit rushed, but it was enough to open the secret room and release the basilisk.

From the current situation, it is the most likely possibility that Ginny will open the secret room, but no matter how much Evan tries to try, she says that she does not know Tom Riddle, and she has not seen any diary, and has never seen it.

In recent days, Ginny has even begun to hide from Aven.

Things get more confusing, things go terribly, and Evan finds himself stuck in an infinite loop.

On the one hand, according to the original plot, it was Tom Riddle who controlled Ginny to open the secret room, and although the questions that Evan asked Ginny were more subtle, with Tom Riddle's cunning, he would definitely find flaws and be wary of him.

If so, the next target is likely to be Evan himself.

On the other hand, due to the butterfly effect of his crossing, Lucius Malfoy did not give the diary to Ginny, but the secret room was still opened, and it was already possible to determine who Tom Riddle had infiltrated the school and who he controlled.

Evan struggled to recall all the information related to the Malfoy family, but his head was full of mush, and the more he thought about it, the more confused his thoughts became, and there was no clue at all.

In the end, he had to give up his plans to find Tom Riddle.

Everything goes back to the original strategy, so that no matter where Tom Riddle is hiding, as long as he can defeat the basilisk, then everything is not a problem.

Evan knew where the Chamber of Secrets was, and Harry was able to open it, but now it was only strength that was missing.

It's easy to say, but it's not easy for a young wizard to defeat a powerful magical creature like a basilisk, and Evan has to speed up his spell learning, and he has to master the usual dueling spells in a short period of time.

In addition to that, he plans to ask Hagrid for a rooster.

But when he found that he couldn't take it with him, he had to settle for the next best thing and find a way to record the sound of the rooster crowing.

The basilisk was only afraid of the sound of the rooster crowing, but there was no such spell in the usual magic to record sounds, and Evan had to spend a lot of time studying in the library, which made him look very haggard.

In fact, the attacks affected almost everyone.

The young wizards were so concerned about the Chamber of Secrets that all the Hogwarts History in the library had been borrowed, and reservations were waited until two months later.

Rumors are everywhere, people are panicking, and gossip is flying all over the sky.

When the latest issue of Hogwarts Wizardry came out, because it contained an article by Ewen and Hermione about the analysis of the secret room, the newspaper was immediately looted, and the print run reached a record high of 1,300 copies.

The newspaper articles were mainly based on reliable historical facts, with some personal conjectures from Aven, but everyone was obviously not satisfied with the exploration of the secret room, and in addition to being interested in what was hidden in the secret room, they also wanted to know who the heir was.

I don't know when everyone started to lock in the suspicion of Harry.

Of the four people who first discovered that Lady Loris had been petrified on Halloween, Evan and Hermione's parents were Muggles, and they could not be descendants of Slytherin; Ron's family was full of wizards, but their family was Gryffindor, and Ron's strength was not enough; the only one left was Harry, because he defeated Voldemort, and in the minds of most young wizards, only the most powerful dark wizard could defeat the Dark Lord.

While eating dinner, Evan saw Justin Finchlie hastily dodging Harry and muttering something like "Heir of Slytherin".

This made several people feel bad, Harry secretly pulled Aven, and the four of them left the Great Hall and went to the third floor, fortunately, this time Filch was not here. As they were about to open the door and enter, someone suddenly came out of it.

It was Penelo Riot, the prefect of Ravenclaw, who looked at the four people in front of her in surprise, turned and hurried away.

"She must think we're going to do something bad!" Ron muttered as he blushed and walked into the bathroom first.

At this moment, a person's voice suddenly came from behind him, which frightened the four of them to jump.

"Ron, what are you doing?" Percy stopped at the top of the stairs, the prefect's badge shining on his chest, a look of utter surprise on his face.

"That's the girls' bathroom!" he gasped, "what are you doing?"

"Nothing, just a casual look," Ron shrugged, "We're looking for clues, you know." ”

"Looking for clues?!" Percy picked up the shelf, "I don't think there's a clue in the girls' bathroom that you need to find, get out of here now."

As he spoke, he walked toward Evan and the others, and opened his arms, urging them to go.

"Don't you care what this looks like? Everyone else is eating, and you're running here trying to get into a girls' bathroom. ”

"Why can't we be here, you don't know anything. Ron stopped abruptly and glared at Percy in a huff, "I know what you're thinking, listen, we didn't lift a finger against that cat!"

"That's what I said to Ginny. Percy didn't show any weakness, either, "but she still seems to think you're going to be expelled, and I've never seen her so upset, crying all day." You should think about it, the first graders are all upset by this!"

"Evan is also a first-year student, and I don't see any distraction on his part. Ron's ears turned red, "It's you, you don't care about Ginny at all, you're just worried that I'm going to ruin your future as president of the boys' student council." ”

"Gryffindor deducts five points!" Percy said stiffly, fiddling with the prefect's badge with his fingers, "I hope this will teach you a lesson, stop doing any more detective activities, or I'll write to my mother!"

He strode away, the back of his neck as red as Ron's ears.

"Ron, you shouldn't be arguing with Percy, he's just caring about us. Evan whispered.

"You think I'm making a fuss?!" Ron turned to look at Aven, "first flying a car to school, throwing up slugs for a week, apologizing to Myrtle, and now trying to get into the girls' bathroom, you're all right, and I'm always wrong." ”

"Ron, that's not what Evan meant," Harry said hurriedly,

"I've had enough!" Ron cried out, "if that madman can only attack one cat, then let him do it." ”

With that, he ran down the stairs towards the Gryffindor Tower.

Harry and Hermione were stunned for a moment, and hurriedly ran after Ron, leaving Evan alone in front of Myrtle's bathroom.
