A few minutes later, Albert appeared near the hunting lodge, and was pouring the contents of the pot into Yaya's bowl, when he heard approaching footsteps, looked up in the direction from which the sound came, greeted Albert with a smile, and invited him into the house for tea.

"Hagrid, do you know what happened in the castle last night?" asked Albert straight to the point.

"What's the matter?" Hagrid picked up the large teapot, poured Albert an amber cup of tea, and brought a large plate of rock skin cakes that he had baked himself and placed them in front of Albert.

"Filch's cat is petrified?" Albert looked up to watch the expression change on Hagrid's face.

"Who did it?" Hagrid asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Heir of Slytherin. Albert put down his teacup, stared at Hagrid, and said, "That guy is still on the wall: the Chamber of Secrets has been opened. Those who are enemies of the heirs, be wary. ”

Hagrid was stunned, and the expression on his face became a little complicated, as if he recalled some unpleasant past events.

"Hagrid, what do you know about the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets. Albert took a sip from his teacup, stared at Hagrid with a sharp gaze, and reminded, "Don't rush to deny, your expression tells me that you know about it." ”

Hagrid was silent, absentmindedly picking up a piece of rock crust and throwing it into his mouth and chewing it, as if he didn't want to talk about it.

"The heirs of Slytherin will unleash monsters from secret rooms to attack Muggle wizards in schools. Seeing that Hagrid was reluctant to speak, Albert said to himself, "Filch's cat is just a victim of the Slytherin heirs to announce his return. There will definitely be other Muggle wizards attacked, and I'm likely to be next. ”

Actually, Albert wasn't lying, because last night, he found that he had two more rewarding board tasks on his quest board:

PUBG

The heirs of Slytherin have made you the target of an attack from a secret room monster that will threaten your life and survive a deadly attack.

Reward: 10,000 experience, 2 skill points.

Bad decisions

The Slytherin heir doesn't seem to want to let you go, so let them know that targeting you is the stupidest decision he's ever made in his life, and use any method to find out the Slytherin heir and make him pay for his stupidity.

Reward: 10,000 XP for a specific skill.

A designated skill.

This is the most valuable task reward Albert has encountered, and he has always wanted to farm the Special Contribution Award for this task reward.

This means that he will be able to master the crafting of the Philosopher's Stone directly through this reward, or he will be able to master the Animagus without the tedious process...... There is a very large space for manoeuvre.

"We've got to get the damn Slytherin heir out of place as soon as possible and put an end to this farce. Albert said righteously, as if he was covered in a layer of holy light.

"Well, the Chamber of Secrets was opened about fifty years ago, when there were so many attacks at Hogwarts that the school almost closed because of it. Hagrid said hoarsely, "At that time, the professors searched the entire castle thoroughly, but still did not find the so-called Slytherin chambers. ”

"Hagrid, how old are you? Albert asked suddenly.

"Sixty-four, what's wrong?" Hagrid didn't understand, Albert suddenly asked about his age.

"I think you looked like you were expelled from school, right?" Albert asked, narrowing his eyes.

The look on Hagrid's face turned ugly, apparently realizing why Albert was asking about his age.

"It's not me, it's really not me who did it, it's not Alagog, it's not killing, it's not killing. Hagrid's emotions were a little agitated, and his tone was a little higher, "At that time, they said that Aragog was the so-called monster in the secret room, and they even fired me for it. ”

"Of course I know it's not you. Albert slowed his tone, trying to calm Hagrid's agitation, "The Eight-Eyed Spider can't petrify Filch's cat. ”

"But, you don't know, at the time, no one wanted to believe me, only Dumbledore believed that I was innocent. Hagrid's eyes were a little red, as if he had been greatly wronged.

"Tell me what you know!" Albert calmed Hagrid's emotions as he verbally induced him to do something about you, "Don't turn Hagrid down, if this matter is not resolved soon, you will be in trouble yourself." ”

Hagrid was a little confused, apparently not understanding why Albert said he was in trouble.

"That cat is just an omen, the monster in the Chamber of Secrets is still roaming the castle and will definitely continue to attack the Muggle wizards in the castle. Albert looked Hagrid in the eye and reminded, "If people couldn't find the killer, you said they would be the first to suspect someone." ”

"But, Dumbledore......"

"I knew Dumbledore wouldn't suspect you, but it didn't work. Albert grimly pointed this out, "If the attack continues, the Ministry of Magic will find a substitute, and you will definitely be suspected, or even thrown into Azkaban, and then the Ministry will be able to tell the others that they have caught the murderer." ”

When Hagrid heard Albert's words, he was dumbfounded.

"Don't doubt my words Hagrid, politics is this kind of filthy stuff, and even though they know it's not going to help, you're going to be out of luck with it. ”

"How can they do that. He muttered.

"Of course they can do that, otherwise you wouldn't have been fired back then. Albert sneered, "I don't know what happened back then, but it's not hard to guess what happened." When you, you must have kept the eight-eyed spider in the castle, and someone found out, and you let it go, right?"

"But why are you ......?"

"Would you be so concerned about this?" Albert finished speaking for Hagrid, "Don't forget Hagrid, I'm a Muggle wizard, and I have a great reputation in school, and I'm the most hated Slytherin heir to the Slytherin who hates Muggle wizards, and it's not an exaggeration to say that it's a thorn in the eye, it's predestined from the beginning." Honestly, if I were him, the first person to attack would be me, the guy he hated. At the very least, I'll definitely be at the top of the Slytherin heirs' list of purifications. ”

"For my safety, I'm going to strike first. Albert said confidently. He will be so obsessed, even violating his principle of keeping a low profile at the beginning, not only for the task and experience, but from the beginning, he can't escape from it, and sometimes he will have trouble if his reputation is too big.

Therefore, Albert plans to trigger the panel quests as much as possible, get more quests and rewards, and then use Dumbledore's hand to completely clean up Tom Riddle's diary.

Specify the skill, and he will definitely not give up.

For Albert, having more than 10,000 experience or one or two skill points is really not as important as specifying skills.

"Okay. Hagrid hesitated for a moment and began to talk about the past, "It was about my third year. Well, fifty years ago, around this time, there were a number of egregious Muggle attacks at Hogwarts, and everyone was rumored that the Slytherin Chamber had been reopened. Later, when I died, someone exposed me and said that I was a murderer, and I was regarded as a murderer by everyone and was expelled from school. ”

"Who told you about the murderer?" Albert asked

"It's like it's called Tom. Hagrid finally affirmed, "Tom Riddle, that's right, that's the guy." ”

"I see, probably because of this incident, Tom Riddle won the Special Contribution Award. Albert nodded, noticing Hagrid's puzzled gaze, and casually explained, "I've seen that name in the prize showroom on the fourth floor. ”

"Oh. Probably at the mention of the name, Hagrid's mood was even worse.

"What kind of man is Tom Riddle," Albert suddenly asked, "is he a student at Slytherin?" ”

"How would you know. Hagrid was a little curious as to how Albert knew.

"Any other clues?" Albert continued, "You know of any monsters capable of petrifying cats. ”

"I don't know," Hagrid shook his head, "though, Aragog probably knows that it seems to be terrified of the monsters in the castle, and has even begged me to let it go more than once." At the time, I asked Aragog many times, but it never told me what the Slytherin monster was. ”

"Well, the range has narrowed down a lot, and there aren't many creatures that can make the Eight-Eyed Spider afraid. ”

"Do you know what the monster in the Chamber of Secrets is?" Hagrid couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know, but it's not difficult to check, I just need to check what natural enemies the eight-eyed giant spider has, and I can probably guess what the monster in the secret room is. Albert quickly took notes, not forgetting to take the time to explain to Hagrid.

"You're amazing. ”

Hagrid stared at Albert dumbfounded, and it took a long time to hold back such a sentence.

"Any clues?" Albert asked, after a moment's thought, "who died at the time?"

"I don't remember," Hagrid struggled to remember, then shook his head, "Looks like a Ravenclaw Muggle girl." ”

"Where did she die?" Albert continued.

"Good things are in a bathroom. Hagrid said, "What did you find?"

"If it is the natural enemy of the eight-eyed giant spider, it means that the monster is very large, otherwise how can it become the natural enemy of those big spiders?" Albert pushed the golden-edged eye socket and analyzed: "It is impossible for such a monster to blatantly wander in the corridor. ”

"You have a point. Hagrid nodded, feeling that Albert was very powerful, and if the Hogwarts professors at that time could have Albert's ability, maybe he would not have been unjustly expelled.

"Hagrid, I'll go back first. Albert finished his cup of tea and walked to the door, then turned back to Hagrid and said, "If anyone asks about you, don't tell them, especially Harry Potter, who has a very unstable mouth." Well, if you want to say that you can go to Dumbledore and tell him about our conversation today, although it may not be effective, the Headmaster will definitely think carefully, I think it will not be difficult for him to guess what the monster in the Chamber of Secrets is, I will go to the library first. ”

"You're going to catch him, right?"

"Of course, I'll find that damned Slytherin heir, and by the way, help you clear your name and restore your reputation. Albert nodded.

As he leaves Hagrid's hut, the quest panel triggers again.

"Almost. Albert muttered as he looked at the new mission. "However, I do have to be careful this time, and when I succeed, I don't know how much oil and water I can squeeze out of that diary. ”
