Chapter 165: Bruce's Discovery

Hagrid's "suspicion" was ruled out, and I thought everyone was happy, but who knew that the truth was even worse!

Looking at Jack lying in front of the door, Harry hurriedly said, "Could it be that Jack made a mistake!" ”

"Wow!"

Jack seemed to understand Harry's words, and was very dissatisfied with this, and screamed violently!

Hermione immediately said, "It's very simple, let's go in and have a look, shall we?" ”

With that, Hermione was about to push the door in, only to find that it was locked!

"There's no one in there?!" Hermione said. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Harry said, "It's strange that there are people at this time! Everyone had lunch at the restaurant! ”

"Then you can only use unconventional means!" Hermione drew her wand and said, "Use magic!" ”

Harry hurriedly said, "Entering someone else's room without permission, okay?" ”

Hermione looked at him speechlessly and said, "When did you become so honest?" Please, Harry! These are extraordinary times! ”

"I think Harry is right, let's not go in!" Bruce said suddenly.

"Ahh Hermione looked at Bruce in surprise and asked, "What do you mean?" You were the one who brought us here, and you were the one who didn't let us in! ”

"Huh!" Bruce said speechlessly, "It's true that I'm the one who suggested not going in, but it's Jack who brought you here!" Not me! ”

"Hee-hee!" Hermione smiled mischievously and said, "The same! ”

Bruce smiled helplessly and said, "You really don't have to go in, trust me!" Ginny won't be in the room right now! ”

Hermione pursed her lips and said, "Nonsense! I thought you could tell me something that even Jack knew! ”

"Nope! That was not what I meant! Bruce explained, "Do you think if you do something bad and stay here waiting for someone else to catch you?" ”

"Seems to make some sense! Then there's no point in us staying! Hermione said.

Harry immediately said, "I think we can take her back with us, don't we?" Ginny will always go back to the dormitory! ”

"Nope! Harry, I don't think you get it! Hermione explained, "Ginny already knew Jack had found her, and she'd know we'd find out the notebook was missing!" In other words, she knew that she had leaked, just like Bruce just described, after a person did something bad, she wouldn't stay where she was and wait for others to catch her! ”

Harry said, "Maybe she doesn't know...... Oh! Oh my God, that piece of cloth! ”

Bruce nodded and said, "That's right! When she found out that the name on her robe had been bitten in half, she knew that everything could not be hidden! ”

Hermione's breathing suddenly became heavy, and she looked very nervous: "Bruce, Harry...... That's ......"

Both Bruce and Harry knew what Hermione was going to say.

"That's right! It's no surprise she'll be moving today to do what Slytherin didn't do back then! Bruce said.

Harry closed his eyes and said in a low voice, "You said that the heirs of Slytherin cannot be half-bloods, only pure-bloods!" Weasley Family ...... It's a pureblood! ”

The three of them were silent, they had suspected many people but they didn't expect it to be their best friend's sister, that innocent and cute little girl would be the heir!

"But 50 years ago!" Harry broke the silence and asked, "How do you explain what happened 50 years ago?" ”

Hermione smiled wryly, "That's easy to explain, Harry! The heir is the successor to the Slytherin, and if Ginny doesn't finish it, there will be another heir fifty years later! ”

Harry couldn't find any more excuses, and finally he sighed and asked, "So what are we going to do?" Tell the professors? ”

Bruce said, "Have you forgotten the lesson of Quirrell last semester?" Who would believe us, take this rag and tell them that Ginny was bitten off by Jack when she broke into our bedroom to steal something, and she took a notebook from fifty years ago, and it took us back fifty years ago! Do you think people will believe us? ”

Hermione smiled wryly, "Would believe we are crazy!" ”

Bruce said, "That's right! Not to mention the others, if we talk about it, Ron and George, they will probably break up with us! ”

"Then ......," Harry hesitated for a moment, then said firmly, "It's just like last semester, we'll do it ourselves!" ”

Bruce nodded and said, "At least that's the only way to do it right now!" ”

"Do you need to hide it from Ron?" Harry asked.

Bruce said, "No need! Ron has a right to know, but we'd better not tell him about this until he sees Ginny in person! ”

"Eun! I agree! ”

"Actually, I still have a question!" Hermione said curiously, "How did you say Ginny did that?" petrified two people, could it be that she is a magical genius? ”

Bruce shook his head and said, "No! Not so, I know why! Go back to the break room, I'll tell you everything I know when Ron gets back, and we'll talk about it then!" ”

Hermione Harry nodded, and the three of them went back to the lounge and sat on the couch without saying a word! After a while, Ron walked in with the food in high spirits.

"Hey! Guys, I brought you some steak and pies! ”

Although the three of them had already been "prepared", the shock caused to them by the previous events was too great, so Ron still found that there was something wrong with their emotions!

"What's wrong? You seem to be sad? Ron asked curiously.

Harry and Hermione hurriedly smiled and said, "No! ”

Bruce said with a sad face, "It's really sad, the three of us are starving to death waiting for your lunch!" ”

"Huh! Ha ha! Ron smiled awkwardly: "Today's chicken legs are so delicious, I can't help but eat a few more, but I'll bring you some back, let's eat them hot!" ”

Bruce waved his hand and said, "Sit down and get down to business first, and then we'll talk about it later!" ”

Ron put the food on the table next to him, sat down and asked curiously, "What's the matter...... Oh, it's the secret you found in the forbidden book section that night! Great, tell us about it! ”

Bruce said, "That's right! That's what I found in the forbidden book section, it's only a short page, but it's this page that answers our previous doubts! ”

Hermione hurriedly urged: "The beginning can be omitted directly, let's talk about the main point directly!" ”

Bruce nodded and explained, "It's very simple, there is indeed a monster in the secret room, it is the one who petrified Colin and Justin, and it is the same one who killed that girl fifty years ago. But not a spider, but a creature that spiders fear - a basilisk! ”

"Basilisk!?"

Ron immediately asked, "What does it have to do with vipers?" ”

Bruce explained, "You can think of it as a more vicious snake!" Harry remembers that strange sound you heard earlier? Why is it that only you can hear and we can't! Now you know! ”

Harry's eyes lit up and he said, "Parseltongue! Because I can understand snake language, that voice can only be heard! ”

"That's right!" Bruce continued, "The basilisk has an unusually large body, much larger than even a python, and can reach up to fifty feet in length! It was bred by a Parseltongue Greek dark wizard. After many experiments, this person discovered that if a male egg was hatched under the body of a toad, a dangerous snake with extraordinary abilities would hatch. ”

"Wait a minute!" Harry hurriedly asked, "Sorry, Bruce!" Just excuse me, as you said, a fifty-foot snake is hiding in the school, how can we not see it! ”

Bruce smiled and said, "It's true that if other creatures were so big, it would never be possible to do this quietly, but snakes can!" ”

"Drain!" Hermione suddenly said, "It's the drain, and the basilisk is wandering around in the drain management!" That's why every time Harry heard that sound it felt like it was coming from the wall! ”

Bruce nodded and said, "Clever! Here's the answer! The basilisk has a very mixed diet, mammals, birds, reptiles, and insects are its prey, among which spiders are his favorite. That's why every time we find a victim, there are swarms of spiders crawling out of the ground! ”

Hermione said, "But there's one more thing I don't understand! Fifty years ago, the basilisk killed that poor girl, why did this time just petrify Colin and Justin! ”

"You're so smart, Hermione! That's the point! Bruce said, "This is because the basilisk has a terrible special ability, and that is its eyes!" Any person or animal that makes eye contact with the basilisk will be killed! ”

Harry immediately asked, "But Colin and Justin are not dead, and Lady Loris and Sir Nicholas!" ”

Bruce said, "That's because they don't see the basilisk directly!" Lady Loris saw the basilisk through the reflection in the water on the ground, Colin through the camera, and Sir Nicklas because he had already died once, so the basilisk couldn't kill him......"

"Where's Justin?" Ron hurriedly asked, "He didn't have a camera, and there was no water on the ground at the time!" ”

Bruce looked at Ron helplessly and said with a wry smile: "Please, don't worry!" I'll tell you, but don't interrupt me all the time! Quite simply, Justin was standing behind Sir Nicholas and saw the basilisk, and he saw it through a ghost, not directly. So the basilisk can't kill them, just petrify them! ”

"Oh!" Hermione suddenly realized, "That's why you suddenly lay on the ground that night!" ”
