Chapter 144: The Basilisk appears
At the Slytherin House table, the most ugly face was Malfoy, originally last semester, Mo Shen and Harry had entered the Quidditch team as first-year freshmen, so he felt very shameless, he had already persuaded his father to sponsor the Halo 2000 for Slytherin House this year,
In this way, he can also enter the team through the back door, but unexpectedly, Mo Shen directly configured all the academies with Halo 2000 for free, which directly disrupted his plan, and his chance to rely on sponsorship to enter the team was almost shattered. And now I listen to everyone talking about it.
He was even more angry, but before leaving, his father, Lucius Malfoy, seriously warned him not to offend Mo Shen, and to make friends if he could!
Originally, he was very disdainful, but when he learned that Mo Shen donated 500,000 gold Galleons in one go, he took it! As the sole heir of the pure-blood family, he knew more than other students, and in this world, sometimes money can really do whatever he wants.
Many dark wizards are willing to accept some assassination missions to earn gold galleons, and if Mo Shen wants to shoot casually like this, he can't afford to provoke, he really can't afford to provoke, maybe he really provokes others, and directly offers a reward of several million gold galleons, targeting the Malfoy family,
Then their family is really going to be wiped out, not any pure-blood family has so much money, and he himself knows that his family is very beautiful on the surface now, but in fact he knows that his father has sold the antiques handed down by the family several times in exchange for gold galleons.
If it weren't a last resort, no family would be willing to exchange the antiques handed down from their ancestors for gold gallons, so the form of his family is not very optimistic.
"Look, Harry, I'll just say it, Mo Shen is different from the other pure-blood students!" Ron said with a smile.
"Oh, Ron, I heard you complain last semester, why, you changed your mind about Mo Shen during a holiday?" Harry asked with a smile.
"That's because I didn't know him before, and don't forget, he saved you, too!" Ron said.
"I know, from the first time I met Mo Shen, I knew! He was very good, really, I remember the time when school started, I grew up in a Muggle world, how did I know how to get to the station, Mo Shen knew my difficulties, and took the initiative to take me on the train, and do you remember? He gave Malfoy a look at him at that time, haha!" Harry said with a smile.
"Two troublemakers!" Hermione whispered.
"Harry
"¥¥¥¥¥" Ron
Mo Shen sat at the table, should eat, drink, and ignored other people's discussions.
After breakfast, Mo Shen was about to go to the Transfiguration classroom, but at this moment, Filch hurriedly ran in, saying that a Hufflepuff student had been attacked and was now unconscious and sent to the school hospital.
Dumbledore told the students to go back to their dormitories first, and the teachers headed towards the hospital.
At noon, Dumbledore announced that today's class had been cancelled for the time being, and that the students would stay in the common room, and that lunch and dinner would be brought by house-elves.
Mo Shen frowned, it stands to reason that it should be a basilisk, but it is not so serious that even classes have been stopped, and the cafeteria is not allowed to go, is there any situation here?
Until the evening, Mo Shen learned that Filch's cat had died, and Dumbledore and the others also went, at this time Mo Shen and the others walked out of the lounge, and heard it after arriving at the scene
"He must have done it!" Filch screamed, turning his face to Harry.
????????“ It's impossible for a second-year student to do that," Dumbledore said firmly, "and it requires a great deal of dark magic. ”?
???????? But Filch didn't seem to agree, he still insisted that it was a good thing Harry had done.
???????? Snape on the side even more inquired about Harry's whereabouts, trying to get him out of the Quidditch team in Gryffindor.
???????? For a while, the scene was a little chaotic.?
????????“ As long as he is not proven guilty, he is innocent, Severus. Dumbledore was clearly still as determined.
Mo Shen walked over at this time, looked at the cat at his feet, and said, "The Headmaster is right, Professor Snape, Filch can't see it, you shouldn't be able to see it, right?
Snape's face tightened, of course he could tell, and he could guess who had done it, but he was really scared
Dumbledore glanced at Mo Shen and nodded, "All the students are now back in their respective house common rooms, and no one is allowed to go out at night!Professor McGonagall, stay and clean up the aftermath, Snape! Mo Shen is in my office!"
Moments later, inside Dumbledore's office.
"Severus, you shouldn't have said that, it's not good for Harry! and Mo Shen, do you know something?" Dumbledore asked.
"Headmaster, the petrification spell on that cat just now reminded me that I had seen a record in an ancient book before, which was very similar to the legendary basilisk, and as far as I know, the founder of Slytherin, Salazar Slytherin, seems to have a basilisk,
I think Professor Snape, as the head of Slytherin, knows more than I do!" Mo Shen said lightly.
Snape glanced at it and said, "Don't get involved, go back, go back to your dorm, this is a matter of us professors, do you know that you are in danger right now!"
"I know, Professor Snape, you've always cared for me and cared for me, and I can tell, really, that I know about the matter between you and Harry's parents, but you're doing this to Harry, to your reputation," Mo Shen said sincerely.
Snape shook his head, "I don't care!"
Dumbledore cupped his glasses and said, "Mo Shen, it seems that you know about the secret room of the heir in Slytherin legends, and the basilisk really exists, but I hope you don't tell these things." ”
"Headmaster, I understand, you can't let the children of the various colleges be frightened, there are some things that really can't be said, I can understand you!" Mo Shen said.
"Aren't you a kid too?" asked Dumbledore with interest.
"Hehe, it was, after that night seven years ago, I wasn't! You know? A five-year-old child, in addition to learning magic, all kinds of fighting, physical training, and constantly going on, was forced to kill a dark wizard with his own hands at the age of ten.
After my grandfather died more than a year ago, I vowed to destroy Voldemort and use his death to comfort my parents and people!" Mo Shen said coldly.
Dumbledore's expression froze when he heard that Mo Shen was forced to kill, but then he sighed after thinking of the Mo family's situation: "Hey, originally these should have been borne by us adults, I'm really sorry for your situation, but child, many times you should still think about it, at least you still have friends, don't you?"
Mo Shen smiled slightly: "Yes, if it weren't for my friends, Voldemort's remnant soul, I would have been able to destroy it long ago!"
Dumbledore smiled, that's right, the incident of the Philosopher's Stone last semester, what he was most satisfied with about Mo Shen was not Mo Shen's strength and courage, but taking care of Harry who was on the side at that time, which can be seen that although Mo Shen is bent on revenge, he cares about his friends very much, and he still has love in his heart!
"Alright, you should go back early, Snape, you send Mo Shen back, I'm afraid it won't be safe at night!" Dumbledore said.
Mo Shen and Snape got up and left the headmaster's office.
In the silent hallway, almost in front of the stairs of Ravenclaw Academy, Snape whispered, "Mo Shen, I'm sorry, I couldn't save your parents!"
Mo Shen paused for a moment and said, "Professor, I didn't blame you, I know how powerful he is, but I will avenge my parents!"
"I believe it, so you have to be careful about your situation, there is only hope if you live!" said Snape, turning to leave.
Mo Shen took out the wand of the five beasts and walked back step by step, after the common room of Ravenclaw, he put the wand away, not to mention that for the basilisk, Mo Shen still needs to take it seriously,
The ghost knows how powerful the basilisk will be if it has lived for even thousands of years, and there was Snape before, so he didn't have to care, but he had to be careful alone, fortunately, it seems that the basilisk is not in Ravenclaw.
Mo Shen was in the common room, and after thinking about it, he still took out the Five Beast Wands and cast several defensive spells and warning spells in a row, and after doing this, Mo Shen returned to his dormitory to sleep.
In fact, Snape didn't go, but wanted to see how Mo Shen's sense of crisis was, seeing that when Mo Shen went upstairs alone, the wand did not leave his hand, Snape smiled slightly, when he saw Mo Shen return to the lounge, he was really ready to leave, but the magic fluctuated out, so he walked up quickly, although he knew that Mo Shen was very strong, after all, he was still a child in his eyes, but the danger of the basilisk, he knew best, if it really reached the basilisk, it would be bad!
Snape hurried upstairs, but when he saw the defensive charm and the warning charm, he smiled and left again, and said to himself, "This boy, yes! This magic fluctuation, this defensive charm is probably not worse than mine at all!"
Talking to himself, he headed for Dumbledore's Headmaster's office!
