Chapter 36: The Chamber of Secrets
"So Dumbledore, do you think the secret room written on the wall could have anything to do with this cat?" Professor McGonagall asked, "Now is not the time to ask, Minerva," Dumbledore's long white beard reflected coldly from the light of the torch, "The first thing we need to do is to bring this poor cat back from its petrified state, and its regeneration will give us an idea of what to do, which is the most important thing right now, and the potion made of mandrake can do it perfectly." ”
"I'll match!" Gilderoy Lockhart came out unwilling to be lonely again, "Have I dispensed this potion countless times, even if I sleep with my eyes closed!" Kachel pursed his lips disdainfully, closing his eyes? You Niu X, I can't do it, "I'm sorry, I think I'm the teacher of this school now." Snape didn't seem to be able to stand him like this, Zhou Qi frowned beside him, and said coldly; I don't think anyone is more qualified to do this than I am! ”
"Alright, alright, it's not too early, let's all disperse first." Dumbledore clapped his hands and said, "Prefects, take the students of your house back to their common rooms, Mr. Potter, Mr. Weasley, Miss Granger, come with me!" And you, Filch. Dumbledore was gone, and Harry, Ron, and Hermione, and Filch followed, along with Professor McGonagall, Professor Snape, Professor Flitwick, and that Gilderoy Lockhart.
Kachel looked at the backs of the professors leaving, and thought thoughtfully, you guys go make trouble, I'm here to finish when the end is the end, Carchel knows that the secret room in the road is the inheritance of Slytherin, but I don't know if Voldemort found out!
After following the prefects back to the common room, the Slytherin snakes were obviously still in good spirits and did not feel sleepy, knowing that it was a secret room that could Slytherin. The serpents gathered around the fireplace to talk about the Chamber of Secrets and the petrification of Lady Loris, and some of the students who specialized in the history of magic stood and began to introduce the historical records about the Chamber of Secrets and some of their own speculations and suspicions about the matter, and a circle of people listened around them, but they also knew very little.
"Kachel, do you know anything about the secret chamber?" Pansy sat down next to Kachel and asked, and instead of listening to the people who thought he knew the Chamber of Secrets, he asked Kachel next to him, "Yes, Carchel, you're good at studying, and you love to read, so you should know something, right?" Draco coaxed from the side, and the others looked at Carchel expectantly, making him feel a little stressed.
Kachel stood up in everyone's expectant eyes and sorted out what he could tell them, "Well, in the history of Hogwarts, there are indeed records of secret rooms. "Kachel thought for a moment and said;" How long was Hogwarts founded? It's hard to confirm the time, but it's at least more than a thousand years, the founders are all known, are the four great wizards, Ravenclaw, Gryffindor, Hufflepuff and Slytherin, the current four courtyards are named after four great names, at the beginning they worked closely together, training batches of wizards, but, Slytherin gradually began to have differences with other houses, and this difference is getting bigger and bigger, I believe you all know this difference! ”
"Is it about the relationship between pure-blood wizards and Muggle wizards?" Slytherin's captain, Flint, suddenly interjected and asked, "That's right, Flint," Kachel smiled at him, and continued, "Slytherin thinks that schools should only accept pure-blood wizards, not Muggle-blooded children, because they tarnish the charm of magic, but the other three disagree with him, and after a heated argument, Slytherin leaves the school. "Did he just give up insisting on his point of view?" Draco said that he hated Muggle blood the most, so he wanted those with Muggle blood to get out of Hogwarts.
"Of course not, everyone thinks so, but that's all the history says, nothing else can be found about this place, but, legend has it that before Slytherin left, somewhere in the school, he set up a secret room, where a terrible assistant was placed, and one day, the Slytherin heir will open the secret room, and that assistant will obey the heir, and then, the entire school will be cleaned of Muggle wizards."
Everyone shuddered, a little frightened by what Kachel had said, "Kachel, is this true?" Winter Roches asked with some fear, his parents are Muggles, if the Chamber of Secrets really exists, it means that he will also be killed, although he is also a student of Slytherin, but it is impossible for all of them to be pure-blood nobles in an academy, just like Gryffindor, not all of them are Muggles, and there are pure-blood nobles like Neville in it, "No one knows if this is really the secret room has been opened, after all, this secret room is rumored to be a legendary existence, maybe, It was some people who used the secret room excuse to get revenge on Filch, and Filch offended a lot of people," said Kachel with a smile, others didn't know what he said, but he knew it was true, but he couldn't say it.
With the matter of Lady Loris, and the appearance of the warning on the wall, the legend of the secret room spread wildly throughout Hogwarts, and there were whispering conversations in any class, exchanging the information they had collected, and the after-school time was even more exaggerated, often people stood on the fence of the corridor and said their opinions loudly, hoping that others would agree, and a group of people nodded frequently around them, "I think this is just a legend, you don't have to care about it at all!" Cedric Diego of Hufflepuff was saying loudly in the middle of the crowd, this boy who attracted people with his appearance, Kachel didn't pay attention to it, and in his opinion, he didn't have to do anything with Ben to put him in his eyes, after all, who would put an ant in the eye of a lone wolf?
Now Kachel is hurrying towards the lake, Autumn has made an appointment with Kachel to meet at the lake, and Kachel also showed an evil smile as he walked, so that the girl standing in the corridor saw his evil smile and screamed for a while! The relationship between Kachel and Autumn slowly warmed up, although both sides expressed their love for each other, but they did not take too many steps, and now they are limited to pulling small hands, hugging small waists, and kissing small mouths!
