In the silent hallway, William stared at Ginny across from him without saying a word, and the latter stared at William intently.

The expression on Ginny's face changed like a mask in just a few seconds, from panic at first, to confusion and struggle, and then she grinned at William with a mocking smile.

This made the atmosphere in the corridor gradually weirder.

Looking at Ginny, who was slightly controlled by the diary, William's back was gradually soaked in cold sweat, and his hand involuntarily grasped the wand in his sleeve after seeing the meaningless smile.

I guess I just caught the diary that was about to release the basilisk!

Why is the idea so memorized!

William couldn't help but curse at bad luck, William had been keeping a long distance from her since that night, when Ginny gave him the same inexplicable smile, and the only temptation was at the door of the Great Hall, where students always passed by, and the diary would never be used there.

How did you meet such a plague god in this corridor!

"Meow~" A cat meow broke the silent confrontation between the two.

Blake jumped up from William's back and came to William's shoulder, it didn't have the lazy look of not waking up on weekdays, its eyes were staring directly at Ginny, who was controlled by the diary, and the old insignia on his forehead was also shining slightly.

Seeing the appearance of the black cat, Ginny's gaze was slightly dull, she stared at the black cat intently, and her eyes stayed firmly on the emblem on her forehead.

"Stay away from me!" Ginny's expression finally changed, and she returned to her trance-like state.

"Don't tell anyone, because I know the secret about you, too." With these words, Ginny hurried down the stairs and soon disappeared.

"You can see there's something wrong with her, right?" Seeing Ginny's figure disappear, William finally let out a sigh of relief, and he hurried towards the Ravenclaw Tower, asking the black cat on his shoulder as he went.

"Meow~" Blake nodded slightly, then narrowed his eyes lazily again.

"Why did I get her attention? Why did she leave in a hurry after seeing you? Feed! Don't sleep, hey! William had a stomach full of questions to ask, and after seeing Blake's shaky eyelids, William couldn't help but raise his voice.

But perhaps William's voice was too loud, or perhaps Blake was a little annoyed by his questions, and he leapt deeper, his body becoming blurred in the air, and then merged into William's shadow again.

Looking at the black cat that had entered his shadow, William now hated the alchemist who made the black cat in his heart, was it so difficult to add a language module to him?

Every communication takes a lot of effort.

Moreover, it is always uncooperative, and I really don't know who is the master!

"What can you grab but not throw away?" The Ravenclaw knocker asked William, who was standing outside the door to the common room.

It's riddle time again.

"The answer is a cold, your question is really down-to-earth."

Some time ago, among the students of Hogwarts, there is now a puzzle about colds.

I have to say that the work efficiency of the knocker is still very positive, and it would be better if the sound was not so ethereal.

"Keep warm, I hope you don't catch a cold." With that, the knocker stopped talking to William, and the door to the lounge slowly opened outward.

Sometimes, William really felt that Ravenclaw's propaganda was a bit exaggerated, how could such a simple puzzle trap students from other colleges?

During the long teaching career at Hogwarts, there must have been many students from other houses who entered the Ravenclaw common room with a variety of purposes through the puzzle of the knockers.

So, things are not as advertised by Ravenclaw, and for thousands of years, no one but Ravenclaw students have entered Ravenclaw's common room.

How is this possible?

It's just a propaganda ploy to flatter the ingenuity of the Ravenclaw students, and by the way, to fool the wizards who are not smart enough.

As he was about to walk into the lounge, there was a buzzing sound in William's chest, and he reached for the magic pocket watch hanging around his neck, which was not only a magic pocket watch that could tell the time, but also the receiver of the pressure-sensitive device that William had set up in the girls' bathroom on the second floor.

All it takes is a special trigger mechanism for the surface screen to change.

William gently flicked the stopwatch's mainspring, turning it counterclockwise seven times, and the screen, which was supposed to display the time, suddenly split along the centerline to the left and right, revealing the pressure bar inside.

At the moment, it was pointing to a heart-warming blood-red color.

It seems that Ginny has opened the chamber and is now walking around the castle with the basilisk, searching for the Muggle wizard who had the misfortune to appear in their faces.

That little fan brother of the savior Potter is probably going to be cool.

He didn't change his mind about the plot, and the students, especially a professor with a crooked white beard, needed such an attack to realize the importance of the problem.

And William also needs to take advantage of the chaos only after the situation is chaotic, and only when Dumbledore is temporarily kicked out of Hogwarts Castle by Malfoy's father as in the original book, he will have the opportunity to enter the forbidden book area of the castle and hunt those eight-eyed spiders in the forbidden forest.

Those things, as dangerous as they are, are also mobile gold gallons.

Not counting the spider silk of the eight-eyed spider, as well as the materials such as the big turtle and the carapace, the venom secreted by this spider alone costs as much as a hundred gold galleons for one pint!

It is still a scarce commodity with no price, and it is often sold out as soon as it is sold on the black market.

The main reason for this is due to the policies of the Ministry of Magic, which prohibit any wizard from raising or smuggling eight-eyed spiders without permission.

As a result, this creature native to the dense woods of southern Asia is rarely seen in the UK, and the Forbidden Forest is home to such a large wave of spiders thanks to Hagrid.

Taking the eight-eyed spider in exchange for some research funds, this is a business that you can't lose no matter how you think about it, although William is not bad for money, but there are too many places where he needs to use money, and he can earn a little is a little money.

Let's mess up, let's mess up!

With this in mind, William stepped into the lounge and slammed the door shut.

This is not just a gate, but a line between safety and danger.

In the second year, the common rooms of the four houses were the safest places at Hogwarts.
