215. Harry vs. Loki

Harry had a lot of questions in his mind, and he believed that a family like Malfoy would have some news that no one else knew, and that news might answer some of his questions.

When the room was quiet again, Harry let go of the mouth he had been holding Draco, who bit Harry hard before he could withdraw his hand. Harry's eyes widened as he looked at the gums on his hands, he never knew that Draco had a problem with biting.

Draco looked at Harry with smugness, he was very satisfied with his work, in his opinion Harry was self-inflicted, he didn't like such intimate movements.

"Okay, I just covered your mouth, you bit me too, and the two of us are even."

Get even?! He just took a bite of Harry, how could he be so light.

"You owe me, Potter."

Harry was going to raise his hands in surrender, and if he said he owed him anything, then let it be as if he did, now that Harry had slept and eaten something, perhaps they needed to discuss the Chamber of Secrets.

"My dear Draco, even if he wants to settle accounts with me, it should be after I'm well." Harry shook his newly boned arm, and his movements were a little clumsy, of course, because it was a new bone, and it was always a little different from the original.

Draco snorted, for Harry's recent bad luck, he had been merciful enough to bypass Harry once today.

Harry exhaled when he saw Draco reluctantly agreeing not to embarrass himself, and then said to him, "I have some doubts in my mind, and I think I need your answer." ”

"Say it."

Draco did seem to be in a good mood, at least he didn't bother Harry this time, and Harry guessed that he was probably curious about the Chamber of Secrets.

"Chamber of Secrets, what do you know about this other than what Professor McGonagall said?"

Since Professor McGonagall had said that the Chamber of Secrets was established by the previous Slytherin founders, as a traditional old Slytherin family, Draco must have some gossip that is different from the official ones.

Draco knew from Harry's tone that the man was sure he knew something, and although the words were questions, there would be a positive answer.

He pursed his lips, and after what happened in the secret room, he asked his father, who had said something, some rumors between them.

"There is one thing mentioned in the rumors, that is, the door of the secret room was opened fifty years ago, and one of the girls died after that accident, and at the same time, the murderer was caught and expelled from the School of Magic, and because the headmaster thought that this matter damaged the reputation of the school, so it has not been publicized, and not many people know who the person who caught / caught the murderer was, but he was a Slytherin."

Harry touched his nose, the person who caught the murderer was Slytherin, and there was a sense of disobedience in this sentence, so Harry asked, "So the murderer is from that house?" ”

Draco glanced at Harry, and it seemed to be silent.

Harry pointed to himself, "Gryffindor? ”

Draco nodded, according to what they knew, and because not many people knew about it, it was still uncertain who had caught the killer at the time, but the only thing that was certain was that the school had given him a medal.

Draco spread his hands and said, "Isn't it ironic to you think, if the legend is true, the person who opened the Chamber of Secrets fifty years ago was a Gryffindor. ”

Judging from the words of Madam Pomfrey, Professor McGonagall, and Professor Dumbledore just now, this secret room should indeed be stored, but it is unknown who opened it, and the monsters inside are probably very terrifying things, and the reason why they have not announced this matter is actually worried that there will be some commotion.

"I think there must be some kind of misunderstanding here, how do you think a Gryffindor can control a terrible monster."

Draco didn't believe Harry's nonsense, no matter what this monster was, it was very scary, Draco thought that the school should deal with this matter immediately, what if someone died fifty years ago, although this monster only attacks the mudbloods, but who can guarantee that it will always be obedient.

"Well, if someone really keeps the killer gagged, I think we should be able to find some clues."

Harry paused and he had one last question, about the monster, "If you think there really is a monster, what should it be......"

"Probably anything, dragons, snakes, or some hybrid monsters."

Draco had never thought about what a monster was, but he wanted to see what this so-called monster was.

Harry's subconscious told him that things weren't as simple as Draco had said, that all the school medals were in the showroom, and that maybe he could take Loki and Thor on an adventurous night trip tomorrow night to find the man who had captured/captured the murderer fifty years ago. When Draco saw Harry lying on his hospital bed again, he raised his foot and kicked him, knowing that now that Harry's hand was restored, he grabbed Draco's foot very accurately and said, "It's so dark, I'll be scared if I live by myself." ”

Harry Potter was explaining to Draco what it meant to be cheeky with a capital letter.

Draco couldn't push Harry, and he ended up lying down a little distance away from Harry, slowly closing his eyes and falling asleep again. Harry looked at Draco's sleepy face and smiled, it seemed that the affairs of the Chamber of Secrets did not cause much psychological pressure on Draco, but Harry and Draco were worried about the same thing, who could guarantee that every time that monster attacked the so-called "mudbloods"?

Harry's doubts grew clearer with the answer, and he decided not to make a decision until he found the relevant evidence, even though the answer was already on the horizon.

Harry secretly hooked Draco's hand, Harry loved it, he had friends around him who could frolic around, and the reason why he wanted to be stronger was because he had people he wanted to protect, his Dad, his brothers, his friends...... And the arrogant little bastards around him.

"Good night, Draco."

No matter what the hell was in the chamber, they could figure it out, Harry closed his eyes, and the only sound in the room was the sound of the two of them breathing.

The next day, Harry and Draco had been allowed to go back to class by Madam Pomfrey, Harry's arm was back to normal, except for some discomfort, Draco looked at the tooth marks on Harry's hand, he had bitten so hard that he couldn't get rid of it even one night.

Loki raised an eyebrow at the tooth marks on Harry's hand, Harry shrugged his shoulders and told him to provoke that little bastard, so this is the price.

"How's your arm?"

Loki shook his arm and said, "Except for a little bit of inflexibility, everything else is fine." ”

Harry glanced left and right, he pulled Loki and Thor aside, he had an idea that might be a bit risky, but Harry thought that the three of them would be less likely to be in danger if they acted together.

Loki knew what Harry was up to, so he looked at Thor and said, "Tell me, Harry has something we need to do." ”

Thor nodded, they had been brothers for so long, and they knew very well what Harry was thinking, his expression had betrayed him. Harry nodded, he just said hello to his brothers first, "I have a question in my mind, I'm going to want to go to the trophy showroom tonight, so together?" ”

Loki nodded, of course together, in this sensitive period Harry is not worried about the two of them, the two of them are even more worried about Harry's safety, Harry's identity is very sensitive, although he is very capable, but Loki is still very worried about what will happen to Harry's own actions.

"I'll explain the reason later."

Loki and Thor laughed together, they looked at Harry and said, "It's okay if you don't explain, Harry, we're brothers, aren't we?" ”

Harry covered his heart exaggeratedly, oh, when did Loki become so warm and say such heart-warming words.

The time had been set, and the three of them had gathered at curfew, Thor with the invisibility cloak in his hand, and the two of them had come out of the guò. Harry looked at his brother and looked at the time and said, "Let's go." ”

The three of them covered themselves with invisibility cloaks, the three of them were still a little reluctant, their destination showroom was still funny, but the more troublesome thing was that they needed to avoid Mr. Filch, fortunately Mr. Filch's helper, the cat had recently been petrified and couldn't help, which provided them with a lot of convenience.

Opened the door to the showroom with the door opening charm, and after the three of them entered, Loki turned around and locked the door, the room was very dark, Harry had already checked it in the afternoon, there were no windows around it, so they could use magic to light the room inside.

Loki came out of his cloak, looked around and asked Harry, "What are you looking for, Harry?" ”

"A medal about fifty years ago, it should have been a contribution to Hogwarts for no reason, and I got some gossip from Draco last night."

Fifty years ago, it was a long way off, and Harry and the others scattered to find what they needed, while Harry went on to explain his ideas, which seemed so bold that Harry would only talk to his brothers.

But first......

"We need a mute spell, Loki."

Loki was even better at this, he was able to use a spell, like a spell to prevent eavesdropping, he could really make them inaudible, but they could hear other voices outside.

Loki nodded, and he raised his hand to cast a spell Harry wanted, the kind of magic that was already fairly simple for Loki. When Loki nodded at Harry, Harry knew it was time to speak his mind.

"From Draco's words, I have the legend that it was a Gryffindor who opened the Chamber of Secrets, and it was a Slytherin who captured him, and if the premise of the Chamber of Secrets was not a descendant of Salazar Slytherin, I must think this rumor is true, but ......" Harry turned to his brothers and said, "If the original founder of Slytherin didn't like us being a young wizard from the world, I don't think his descendants would go to other houses." ”

Loki nodded, if it was a family tradition, the probability of such a situation should be zero, "So you suspect that Gryffindor was framed?" ”

"It's just a possibility, so I want to find this person who caught/caught the murderer who opened the secret room back then, and see who he really is." Harry then began to search, there were so many trophies and badges in this showroom, they needed to look for it slowly, Harry had one more thing to say, he paused for a long time before speaking, "Do you remember the strange sound I said earlier?" ”

Draco nodded, remembering of course that Harry had been haunted by the sound for a long time, and Hermione had warned Harry not to talk about it, hearing strange noises was not a good thing in that world.

"What do you think?"

"Salazar is a Slytherin, and the Slytherin symbol is a snake, plus I can talk to snakes, so I've been wondering if the voice I heard could be a snake talking to itself? And this snake is most likely the one who has been locked in the secret room before...... Monster. ”

Harry had been thinking about this before, because the snake symbol of Slytherin should have existed from the beginning, probably in addition to saying that the Slytherin house was as cunning as a snake, it was very likely that it had something to do with their founder, and it was all possible that the founder once raised a snake, and this snake should have belonged to the role of the Slytherin Patronus in the first place.

"Snakes? Do you think a snake lives for a thousand years? ”

Loki couldn't believe that there was a snake that could live for a thousand years, what a huge one! Is there a big difference in lifespan between the creatures of the wizarding world and the creatures they know?

"Possibly, maybe we can go home and ask Sherlock, hasn't he read a lot of books about strange creatures in the wizarding world before? It should be quicker than we could have looked for him ourselves. Harry had searched several display cases, but still couldn't find anyone who seemed to be relevant to the incident fifty years ago, and he began to wonder if the badge or trophy wasn't here.

At this time, Thor suddenly called out the names of the two of them, and he saw a familiar name, and Harry and Loki ran over and brought the ball of light in their hands close to the silver badge that Thor was pointing to, with a name Tom Riddle written on it.

It was a name they knew very well, or rather, they remembered, and Loki and Thor looked at Harry on the side, and at the same time at the scar on Harry's forehead, which had a lot to do with Harry's scar, and perhaps they should call him another name, Voldemort.

Harry frowned when he saw the name, and Loki and Thor knew that Harry would be uncomfortable, after all, the name killed Harry's biological parents, and the two of them held Harry's hand one on the left and one on the right. Harry hadn't reached the point where he couldn't stop his feelings, but now it seemed that everything was brighter, all the doubts were solved, and if the person who caught the alleged murderer was Tom Riddle, it was very likely that that person was framed.

"If I'm not mistaken, this shouldn't have been the way things were back then, and the so-called heir of Slytherin is probably this."

Harry pointed to the name on the medal, Tom Riddle.

In fact, if this medal were to be renamed in a different name, Harry would think that there was nothing wrong with this matter, but if it was Tom Riddle or Voldemort, then the things of fifty years ago and the things now may be more than that simple, after what happened to Quirrell, Harry thought that it was very possible for Voldemort to find a possessed person and return to this Hogwarts.

Whoever Gryffindor was fifty years ago, he probably had nothing to do with the Chamber of Secrets.

"Tom Riddle is Voldemort's name, and this time the Chamber of Secrets is once again open with several key conditions, the Successor, the destruction of the Mudbloods in their mouths, and the Chamber of Secrets left behind by Salazar Slytherin. As I said just now, it would be impossible for Salazar to enter Gryffindor, and there is another thing, although Slytherin wizards who think they are pure-bloods have always disliked the wizards from our world, but there is only one person who has achieved the expulsion and torture of so-called Muggle wizards over the years, and that is Voldemort back then. ”

Voldemort was a standard pure-blooded man, and although families like Malfoy had always considered pure-bloods to be more noble, they had never done anything to kill or banish Muggle wizards, and that had only happened more than a decade ago during the dark ages of Voldemort's reign.

Loki agreed with Harry, he saw the blood letters, and he could see that the mudbloods were larger than the others, most likely because of hatred or other reasons, most importantly......

"There are no coincidences in the world, everything happens with its own inevitability."

This sentence has been put on the very edge by Sherlock, compared with the two so-called secret room opening events, there is a point of overlap that no one can ignore is to kill the "mudblood", if the secret room was opened fifty years ago with the participation of Tom Riddle, in comparison with the iron-blooded rule after him, in fact, it is clear.

And this time it is very likely that Voldemort like Quirrell will make a comeback.

"What needs to be confirmed now is whether the basilisk in the secret room is the end, and ...... If Voldemort had returned, who would he have possessed? ”

Loki brings up the key point of who exactly became the unlucky one.

Harry shook his head, this matter needs to be investigated, maybe they should go and meet Dumbledore in the near future and tell Dumbledore everything they know, he thinks the old man should have a way to find out.

Harry and Loki extinguished the ball of light in their hands, and they needed to leave.

Thor carefully erased the traces of their entry, and then got into the cloak, he and Loki looked at each other, if this matter was designed to Voldemort again, maybe they should pay attention to Harry's safety, after the last fiasco they guessed that the person Voldemort wanted to take revenge on the most was Harry.

Loki still has a suspicion in his heart about this matter, if it is really Voldemort who comes back, he suspects that those words and what happened may be a cover-up, a trick to make Harry relax, after all, this so-called heir wants to persecute children whose parents are ordinary people, although their Dad is an ordinary person, but Harry's biological parents are wizards, Harry is not in danger according to those clues, and Harry will definitely let his guard down.

Loki was half right, but he didn't know who the real target was.

Draco saw Loki and Thor returning from the night swim, their faces were a little gloomy, the clever Draco didn't ask where the two of them went, after all, they both need to be secret, and Slytherin has always maintained respect for others.

Loki was thinking that Harry should be with them recently, or Harry coming to Slytherin, or they going to Gryffindor, and if Voldemort returned, the chances of Harry being in danger were immeasurable.

The next morning Harry and they sent back an urgent letter, which was addressed to Sherlock.

Lestrade has been very busy lately, or he has been a little anxious, there have been suicide cases in London, and these suicide cases look more like homicides, the first one appeared on October 12, at first Scotland Yard just thought it was a very ordinary suicide case, there was no trace of anyone else at the scene, and there was no trace of the victim being forced to take medication, so there was only one possibility of suicide.

It was only on November 26, 2009 that another victim was found in a hidden corner of London in the same way as the last suicide, and he also looked like he had committed suicide, but Lestrade had a feeling that there must be some secret in it, because it was impossible for both people to die in the same way.

It's just that Scotland Yard doesn't have any secrets at this time, and at the same time Sherlock doesn't have much interest in the case right now, he has already stated that he wants to move out, and she says that she no longer wants to see the endless show of affection between McCroft and Lestrade.

He found the house and was going to move soon, the address was 221B Baker Street, the landlord was a lady, who had been helped by Sherlock, because Sherlock suddenly decided to move, and McCroft did not make too many obstacles, in his opinion, Sherlock had reached the light bulb for so long, it was time to leave.

He had also investigated the information that had been given to Mrs. Hudson, a very interesting woman, but also very tolerant, and he knew that such a landlord was exactly what Sherlock needed, and perhaps she could be more tolerant of Sherlock than Lestrade, and because Mrs. Hudson had no children, it was shown that she seemed to take care of Sherlock as if she were her own son.

Oh, their mommy would be sad if she heard about it.

However, Lestrade did not agree to Sherlock's immediate move, telling Sherlock that he didn't want Sherlock's Christmas to be alone, at least after Christmas.

Sherlock's feelings for Lestrade are a bit complicated, he has been stationed in Lestrade's home since 2005, or rather, he has been in Lestrade's house, and the reason why Lestrade is in love with Mycroft is probably because he lured the wolf into the house, come on, his brother Mycroft Holmes is a big-tailed wolf.

In the past few years, Sherlock has regarded Lestrade as a close friend, or elder, you must know that although Lestrade is sometimes a little stupid, he is much more reliable than Mycroft.

It was impossible for Sherlock to say no to Lestrade's request.

When he received the letter from Harry, Sherlock didn't know what the imps needed to do on their own, but Sherlock laughed when he opened the letter and saw the words on it, he needed something in return for his help with difficult questions.

In the books he had read about the magical creatures of the wizarding world, the basilisk had been mentioned, and the basilisk could be hundreds or even thousands of years old, because no one had actually seen it, so it was just speculation.

Sherlock told Harry exactly what the book was about the basilisk in his own mind hall, and at the same time he attached his own request to the back, such a creature is amazing, but it has eyes in addition to venom, and Sherlock needs the scales of the basilisk and its flesh.

Thankfully, Lestrade was already at work at this time, and he didn't see the letter Harry sent back to Sherlock, so he didn't know much about his baby bears' adventures in Hogwarts.

Harry looked at Sherlock's reply, the introduction of the basilisk above, and there is a theory that he called it the Snake King, this snake is huge, can live for countless hundreds of years, it hatches from a male egg under the belly of a toad, it has deadly fangs, and that extremely dangerous gaze, anyone who comes into contact with the eye will be killed instantly. The basilisk is a natural predator of spiders, so wherever there is a basilisk, the spider will flee. The rooster's croaking is fatal to the basilisk, so it runs away when it hears the rooster's croaking.

Harry remembered what Hagrid had said about the chickens he had been killed, and now he had fully explained that the person who had released the basilisk had eliminated the basilisk's predators in the school.

Harry banged on the table with his hand, and it was likely that Mr. Filch's cat and Colin were not dead, probably because they didn't see the basilisk directly, but Guò saw its eyes in other ways to save their lives. And the poor girl from fifty years ago probably looked directly at the basilisk, so that person should know something.

While Harry pondered when he should talk to their headmaster, Professor Dumbledore, the rest of the Gryffindor team called for Harry to join him in Professor Lockhart's dueling club tonight.

This dueling club is said to be opened because in order to allow them to better protect themselves from being hurt by the opening of the secret room this time, by the way, they have mastered some spells, and Lockhart, as the professor of the Defence Against the Dark Arts class, will have full authority to teach them spells.

Students from grades 1 to 7 are eligible to participate.

Lockhart didn't really want to be in such a limelight, he was the one who opened the door to the secret room, and now there was a student who was petrified except for the damn cat, and the soul in his diary, which was originally more powerful, expressed disdain for this, the main thing was that Colin was still a mudblood, and Tom Riddle thought it was no big deal.

The journal grew stronger, and Lockhart was terrified of the soul within, even though the soul made him call himself Tom.

This time, the dueling club is Tom's mentions, it is said that Lockhart's ability is too weak, the magic in his body is also very weak, and his soul is not so strong, if he uses his soul and magic to fill himself, Tom thinks that even if he succeeds in resurrection, his ability will be much weaker.

So he got his mind on the young wizard, and he also wanted to meet the true strength of Harry Potter and Loki Odinson, who were the first threats he would get rid of when he was resurrected.

Lockhart stood in front of the mirror and took care of his clothes, he was worried that Loki would peek into his mind, he hadn't even bothered Loki and them in class for a while, and had been hiding from Loki, he was glad that the Dementor had to keep an eye on that person.

"Relax Lockhart, trust me, you're going to get a round of applause today."

Tom could already see a little bit of a shadow, he had recently taught Lockhart, and while it wasn't ideal, it was still useful, at least he wasn't as straw bales as he used to be.

Lockhart swallowed, he didn't know if he could really do it, but now that everyone was waiting for him, he had to choose to take this step.

At the door of the dueling club, Lockhart saw his partner for the evening, Professor Snape, who had a gloomy face as ever, and Lockhart nodded at him and stomped open the door to the classroom.

Snape looked at the flashy man and sneered, damn Lockhart actually mentioned him as a teaching assistant, that was really self-inflicted.

Snape let out a disdainful smile when he knocked Lockhart's wand away with his weapon to remove you, and Tom, who was following Lockhart closely, frowned, he didn't expect that his helper would not be able to resist even a weapon to remove you.

Lockhart came to the students to try it out to hide his embarrassment, and Tom whispered in his ear, "Call Harry Potter." ”

Lockhart shrunk his neck, well, he forced himself to smile, then pointed his wand at Harry and tilted his head and said, "Come on, Harry." ”

Harry pointed to his nose, he didn't know what Lockhart was up to, but was he really sure he wanted to use him? You know, this time he wasn't going to release the water, Loki was right, if the clumsiness didn't work, maybe he would have to rise up.

Snape glanced at Harry on stage, and his eyes flickered to the idea that he had given up on his previous decision to find Draco and instead clicked on a character that no one else could have imagined, which Snape thought would be a little more fun.

"Rocky Odinson, you go."

Thor grabbed Loki, he glared at Snape, didn't this let Loki and Harry use spells to attack each other, Loki was afraid of Thor's hand and shook his head at him, their dean has always been such a bad character, he can't refuse.

"No, we've never done it."

Loki said, "Fool, we're just going to give it a try, and no one will get hurt." ”

Lockhart was about to clap his hands at this point, but Snape had helped him solve a big problem, and he was still thinking about how to approach Loki to see his magic.

Loki walked onto the stage, and all the young wizards held their breath, this was a duel between brothers, and probably only their bad-character Potions professor could think of this.

Draco had thought he was standing across from Harry, but when Snape called Loki's name, he became a little excited, and the magic duel between Loki and Harry would be very interesting.

Harry looked at Loki on the other side and spread his hands and said helplessly, "So it's you and me?" ”

"Looks like so."

"Believe me, if Dad knew that the two of us were standing here duel, he would curse."

But Harry's heart was also a little excited, this was the first time he and Loki had faced each other since childhood, and against Loki, who had taught him how to control magic, Harry knew in his heart that he had no chance of winning.

But......

Both Harry and Loki pulled out their wands.

But he wanted to know where the gap between Loki and himself was.
