"It's great that you'll say yes, Severus, I knew you had the potential to be a professor, from the first time I met you." Dumbledore said happily, then poured himself another sip of honey with some tea.

"Dumbledore, didn't you old bee hear me? He's going to open up there! At this time, a portrait of a person pretending to be asleep on the wall could not hold back any longer, and he excitedly twitched his red nose to make it look more conspicuous.

"Open there? Where? The other portraits also opened their eyes when they heard the sound, and some of the portraits who were really asleep hurriedly asked, as if they had just missed some wonderful plot.

"You must wake me up when this kid comes back in the future."

……

Severus stared at the portrait on the wall for a few seconds, then turned his head to stare at Fawkes, the stupid bird a little more impulsive.

"Open there? Is it a real office? Dumbledore pondered for a moment, "Severus, do you really know what's inside?" ”

"Of course," Severus said, "of course not! ”

What you old man doesn't know, how can I know.

It didn't appear in the original book!

"Well, you've finally got some sense of humor, Severus." Dumbledore was a little relieved, thanks to his unremitting efforts!

"Old bee, sweet and greasy old bee, is it time to say this, stop him, you must stop him!" Red Nose continued to shout, and the portraits around him were far away from him, as if he was also a madman.

"I must tell you, Severus, to be careful." Dumbledore turned the subject again, "You're not the first Slytherin to discover that place. ”

"That's right, I'm the first," Phineas on the wall. Blake finally had a chance to interject, and he looked very proud, "If you want me to say, you should open it up and look inside...... Not... Hmm..."

Headmaster Black, who had just spoken a few words, was once again dragged out of the portrait by the other old men.

Familiar sounds, familiar scenes, familiar portrait sounds......

But does this have anything to do with opening the Dean's office in Slytherin? Is there any mechanism? Magic traps? Or is it a curse?

Dumbledore clearly saw Severus's confusion, so he spoke again, "Severus, you must have heard of the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets, right?" ”

Severus nodded, and said in his heart: Not only have I heard it, but I have also seen it, except that the snake is too ugly, the whole plot is a little embarrassing!

But you don't think the dean's office is a secret room, do you?

Would there be a brain-dead person who would keep that kind of thing in the office?

Do you think this is still a pet snake? The kind on the handicap?

Or can it be bigger and smaller at will?

This is the wizarding world, not a myth!

However, it seems that there are such snakes, and Severus is a little unsure if the basilisk will have this ability.

"Legend Salazar. Slytherin had a growing disagreement with the other founders over the admission of Muggle-born students, so a few years after the founding of Hogwarts, Salazar Slytherin built the Chamber of Secrets in the school, and before leaving the school, he closed it so that no one could open it until his true heir came to the school. Only the heir can open the Chamber of Secrets, release the horrors inside, and let it purify the school and rid it of all those who don't deserve to learn magic. ”

Dumbledore said slowly, but Severus knew all this, and he also knew where the Chamber of Secrets was and what was inside.

"Don't tell me you're going to believe those rumors, Dumbledore!" Severus frowned and said coldly, "The greatest white wizard in the world is actually an old madman who listens to rumors!" ”

"Don't say that, Severus, I'm just an ordinary old man, and the rumors aren't necessarily unfounded." Dumbledore was not angry, he said calmly, "Besides, according to the investigation records of the previous headmasters, Severus, the Chamber of Secrets may really exist. ”

Dumbledore stepped out from behind his desk, and paced slowly, as if thinking about something, "You may not know, Severus, someone opened the Chamber of Secrets more than forty years ago and killed a student. ”

He turned his head and looked at Severus solemnly, "So, are you going to open it?" ”

"Dumbledore, I don't know what medicine you took wrong, but please pay attention, I'm going to open the Slytherin Headmaster's office, not a secret room!" Severus emphasized, "You don't think the Chamber of Secrets is the Dean's Office, do you? ”

"It's not impossible, Severus, I'm going to think about my students." Dumbledore whispered.

"First of all, you have to understand, Dumbledore, although Slytherin did not agree to admit Muggles, there was a reason for this, you knew better than me the social background at that time, many Muggle students betrayed the school, and Slytherin did it for the safety of the school."

"Secondly, Slytherin is still a conscientious and righteous professor for his students, and Slytherin has never left anything hostile to Muggles."

"Finally, I'd heard about it over forty years ago, I saw that stupid thing in the Forbidden Forest, and I don't think Slytherin would like that."

Dumbledore listened carefully, without any impatience or arguing, "I also don't think that Aragog is the murderer, but the real culprit must still be in the castle, so I must think carefully." ”

"Dumbledore, this is the Slytherin Headmaster's office, right next to the Slytherin common room, do you think Slytherin would put something dangerous for students there?" Severus sneered, "Slytherin can be cunning, ambitious, and unscrupulous, but Slytherin will never kill Slytherin!" ”

Seeing that Dumbledore seemed to be speechless, Severus added, "Don't take that madman for a Slytherin, he's a disgrace to Slytherin, and he's violated much more Slytherin rules than he brought!" ”

"And I don't think there's any benefit in leaving the danger to future generations, and if there's danger, then get rid of it, right?"

Eventually, Dumbledore agreed.

I don't know if it was that sentence that moved him, but Severus guessed it was the last one.

Gryffindor's adventurous spirit has always been as reckless as it is!

Not to mention that the old madman was still at the forefront with the Elder Wand and the Gryffindor sword.

Oh, and on his shoulder stands his pet Phoenix Fawkes!
