Chapter 170: Now we can go
(ps: It doesn't count the number of words, but all the big questions and partial replies in the chapters related to the work, thank you!) )
Because of the mess just now, Bruce didn't know where they were now. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Fortunately, he has teeth and is familiar with the Forbidden Forest, and he can lead the four of them back to Hagrid's cabin.
Before leaving, Ron came to the car and said gratefully, "Man, thanks to you this time!" You saved us, but we still have important things, and when this is over, I will definitely find a way to get Dad to take you back, and then you can fly again! ”
Looking at Ron, who said goodbye to the car, Bruce said, "Although Ron's words are very touching, I don't think Mrs. Weasley will ask Mr. Weasley to take the car back." ”
"Shut up, Bruce!" Hermione said dissatisfiedly, "Without it, we'd be a meal for spiders now!" ”
"Okay, okay!" Bruce smiled apologetically and said, "If Mrs. Weasley doesn't agree, then we'll figure it out, right?" ”
At this point, Ron came back and said, "Let's go, we can go back." ”
Harry said, "Well, don't worry, Ron! We've already discussed it just now, and we'll definitely find a way to get the car back. ”
Ron nodded and said, "I hope so, but I'm afraid my mom won't say yes." ”
Bruce laughed, "After we solve the secret room incident and tell Mrs. Weasley about tonight's escape, I don't think she will let her son's lifesaver be left in the Forbidden Forest." ”
"Eun!" Ron laughed, "That's right! So what are we waiting for? Tooth, let's go! ”
So, led by Yaya, the four of them walked through the dark woods and returned to the cabin.
"What's next?" Hermione asked.
Harry said, "Go to the bathroom and ask Myrtle to find the secret room!" ”
Bruce nodded and said, "No problem! But I'd suggest we get back to the dorm and change before we go, what do you think? ”
"Of course, I want to change my clothes too!" Hermione said.
But just as the four of them were about to leave, suddenly there was a rooster crowing from behind the cabin.
Bruce suddenly stopped, and Hermione asked in confusion, "What's wrong?" Bruce? ”
Bruce slapped his head and said, "Damn, I almost forgot about this big killer!" ”
"The Big Killer? What do you mean? The three of them asked curiously.
Bruce laughed, "I forgot to tell you, the book says that because the basilisk hatches from male eggs, the basilisk is very afraid of the rooster's crow!" (PS: Male eggs?!) I'm going, awesome, my chicken! )
"What?" Harry excitedly said, "Damn, you bastard! Why is such important news only being told to us now! ”
Bruce laughed, "Fortunately, Hagrid's rooster crowed a few times just now, otherwise I wouldn't remember it now." ”
"That's right!" Hermione suddenly realized, "Didn't Hagrid say that?" The rooster in the school died a lot, and now it seems that it should have been killed by the basilisk because it was afraid of the rooster's crow! ”
Ron excitedly said, "Then we can use the crowing of a rooster to deal with the basilisk!" ”
Bruce nodded and said, "That's right, it's a very feasible idea. ”
"But we can't carry a male **** Harry said.
Bruce raised an eyebrow and said, "Did you forget?" Harry. Didn't Mr. Tom give me a suitcase? ”
"yes!" Harry said excitedly, "That one can fit in Jack and can also fit a!" That's great! ”
Bruce nodded and said, "Now let's go back and clean up, and then I'll catch the." ”
Hermione immediately cast an "invisibility charm" on Bruce, and the three of them put on invisibility cloaks and rushed back to the dormitory. But what the four didn't expect was that when they returned to the castle, something big happened!
The four of them had just reached the second floor when suddenly Hermione grabbed Harry and Ron, and then pointed ahead, and they noticed that the hairpin on Bruce's feet stopped.
The three of them slowly moved over and found that there was a line of blood on the wall around the corner!
"Her bones will be sealed in the Chamber of Secrets forever"
The blood letters on the walls make people shudder.
"What does that mean?" Ron asked hurriedly.
"Shhhh Don't talk. ”
Bruce's voice rang out, and a moment later there was a flurry of footsteps. Professor McGonagall and the other professors arrived.
"Oh! Oh, my God! Madam Pomfrey immediately covered her mouth when she saw the bloody words.
Professor McGonagall walked over to the line of blood and said solemnly, "The Slytherin inheritor has left another message, and what I feared has happened. Ladies and gentlemen, one of our students has been caught in a secret room by a monster! ”
Snape stared at the line and said calmly, "Professor McGonagall, I suggest that the students be sent home immediately. ”
Professor McGonagall said worriedly, "How can I explain to Albus, Hogwarts is probably closing!" ”
"Haha! Sorry, everyone! ”
At this moment, a flirtatious voice came, and Lockhart came over with a smile on his face and said, "Dozed off, didn't you miss anything?" ”
A hint of disgust flashed in Snape's eyes, and he said lightly, "There's a girl who has been captured by a monster." Lockhart, it's time for you to show off what you're up to! ”
Lockhart was stunned for a moment, then pretended to be calm and asked, "What chance?" ”
Snape said lightly, "Didn't you swear that you already knew where the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets was on the night Dumbledore left?" And...... You also promise to catch the murderer. ”
Lockhart hurried to explain, but Professor McGonagall took the lead and said, "That's it, and the task is up to you, Gildero." After all, you're in awesome! ”
At this moment, Bruce, who was hiding behind everyone, showed a sneer, because he knew that Lockhart was "general", and even the elves couldn't deal with him, how could he deal with the basilisk. But Bruce admires him, and until now he still hasn't forgotten to "pretend to be B"!
"No problem!" Lockhart smiled confidently, "I'll go back to the office first...... Get ready! ”
After speaking, he left calmly.
Madam Pomfrey asked with concern, "Who did the monster capture, Minerva?" ”
Professor McGonagall shook her head and said, "I don't know yet...... Deans, go back to the common rooms of your respective colleges and see if any students are not there! ”
As soon as the four of them heard this, they immediately returned to the same way and prepared to take a detour to return to the dormitory first, after all, the "blood letter" only indicated that a girl was arrested, and if it was discovered, a total of five people disappeared, and it would be "fun".
But after the four had left, Snape said to Professor McGonagall, "Gildero, not credible! ”
Professor McGonagall smiled and said, "Of course I do, Severus! He must be ready to slip away by now. ”
"Don't need to stop him?" Snape asked.
Professor McGonagall reluctantly said, "Let him go, I did it on purpose." Now we have to put the students first, and I can't let a person with no name protect the safety of the students! ”
Snape nodded and left, and Professor McGonagall stood there alone looking at the lines of blood, she sighed, her voice full of helplessness, "Albus, what are you thinking?" ”
……
When Bruce returned to the dormitory, the lounge was empty, and the four immediately returned to their dorms to wash and change into neat clothes, just then Professor McGonagall's voice rang out.
"All the students come out at once!"
Bruce hurriedly walked out of the bathroom and asked softly, "Are you ready?" ”
"That's it!"
"Wake Neville up, let's go down." Bruce said.
Ron hurriedly woke up Neville, who was already asleep, and then the four of them rushed downstairs, and the rest of the dorms also arrived one after another, and everyone looked at Professor McGonagall in surprise and couldn't understand why they were suddenly called out.
Professor McGonagall didn't beat around the bush and asked, "Are all of them there?" ”
At this moment, a girl in her pajamas raised her hand and said, "Professor McGonagall, Ginny hasn't come back yet." ”
"Oh my God!" Ron was stunned.
George Fred and Percy looked at the girl in surprise, George changed his previous frivolity and hurriedly asked, "Professor, what happened?" ”
Professor McGonagall said, "Except for Ron, George, Fred, and Percy, everyone else is back in the dorms, immediately!" ”
Everyone went back with doubts, and the three of Bruce had already known about the situation, and now Professor McGonagall told Ron that it might be much better.
After everyone left, George hurriedly asked, "Professor, is something wrong with Ginny?" ”
Professor McGonagall said sadly, "Gentlemen, I would like to warn you not to get excited...... Ginny has been caught in the back room! ”
The four of them were stunned for a moment, and Ron had already shed tears because he knew the situation.
"Oh God!" George covered his head and said sadly, "Why...... Ginny! No, I'm going to save him! ”
Fred immediately said: "I'll go too, I can't...... I can't let Ginny get hurt! ”
"George Fred!" Percy stopped the two sternly and said, "Do you know where the secret room is?" ”
Fred said excitedly, "We know every secret passage in Hogwarts, I will definitely find Ginny, definitely!" ”
"But I can't let my brother die!" Percy shouted excitedly, "You calm me down! ”
Professor McGonagall looked at the four of them sadly and said, "George Fred, Percy is right! I've informed the Ministry of Magic that we'll do our best to get Ginny out, you...... You must be calm. Percy, I've got you covered. ”
Professor McGonagall leaves, and with her Bruce in an invisibility cloak and a box.
Ron rushed back to his dorm room crying. And Percy, the third brother who has always been disliked by his brothers, is now enduring his grief and comforting his younger brothers.
Ron, who returned to the dormitory, excitedly said to Harry, "Let's go, let's go to the secret room!" ”
Harry reassured, "Calm down, Ron! Calm down, Bruce has gone to the cabin, we will definitely rescue Ginny! ”
Neville had just heard Professor McGonagall and seen Bruce go out in an invisibility cloak, Neville approached Ron and comforted, "Ron, don't be sad! Ginny will be fine! ”
Ron nodded with a sob, and then Harry said to Neville, "Neville, I'm afraid we need you to keep it a secret for us again!" ”
Neville said solemnly, "I know you're going to break the school rules again, but I'm not going to say anything to anyone this time, it's just ...... It's just that I'm too cowardly, otherwise I would have helped you! ”
Harry smiled and said, "Thank you, thank you!" Neville! ”
"May I come in?" Hermione made her way to the door of the dorm.
Harry nodded and said, "Come in, we're all set." ”
Hermione looked at Ron with concern and said, "Ron, don't be sad. We...... Aren't we just going to save Ginny? You have to be calm at this time!
Ron said sadly, "I know I should be calm, but ......"
"But you have to calm down, force yourself to calm down!" Bruce's voice appears in the dorm room.
He took off his invisibility cloak, lifted the box, and said, "Now we can go!" (To be continued.) )
