"Who's there?"

The fat lady, who had just closed her eyes and was about to rest, opened her eyes suspiciously, looking at the empty corridor in front of her.

There was no response, as if there was no one there in the first place.

At eleven o'clock, the curfew had begun.

In the quiet corridor, light footsteps sounded, as if someone was gradually moving away.

The footsteps did not disappear, but the corridor was still pitch black, and no human figures were visible, except for the whispers of portraits on both sides of the corridor.

Creak!

A door was pushed open without warning, and it appeared as if someone had stepped inside.

A strange hissing sound suddenly sounded in the dark bathroom, and a dazzling white light came from the faucet.

The pool moved, spreading out in all directions, revealing a very large pipe.

A skinny red-haired girl appeared out of thin air, holding a book in her arms, walked directly to the water pipe, and jumped inside.

I don't know how long it took, a ball of light lit up out of thin air in the girls' bathroom, completely dispelling the darkness inside, and a crisp clicking sound sounded in the quiet bathroom, as if someone was taking pictures towards the entrance of the secret room.

The ball of light lingered in the void for only a moment before vanishing, and dead silence was restored in the bathroom.

After a moment, a man's voice sounded in the darkness: "It seems that my luck is not bad. ”

Albert looked at the photo in his hand, and a pleasant smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as long as there was a photo, the existence of the secret room could be confirmed.

That's the mission.

Lo and behold, the mission is coming.

Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets.

Exploring the secret room, or waiting for Harry Potter to kill the basilisk, anyway, he can learn the snake through skills, Albert is not worried about not being able to enter the secret room at all.

Leave the big trouble of the basilisk to the savior!

After taking the photo and triggering the panel mission, Albert didn't plan to stay here any longer, lest Tom find out and the rest of the plan might explode on the spot.

It's best to get out of here as soon as possible.

After Ginny Weasley enters the Slytherin Vault, it means that Tom has taken control of Ginny to summon the basilisk from the depths of the castle.

It's no longer safe here.

For the safety of his own life, Albert returned to the common room of Gryffindor as fast as he could.

To be honest, Albert was in a good mood, and even his steps became lighter.

Slytherin's secret chambers, if used, are sure to trigger a lot of quests.

Tom Riddle thought no one knew that he was behind Ginny Weasley's control to open the Chamber of Secrets and rid the school of Muggle wizards.

"I don't see you clearly. A sneer tugged at the corners of Albert's mouth, and he used his brain to refine his previous plan.

When passing by the prize showroom on the fourth floor, he met Filch, who was helping the cat to smooth his coat, while staring at Ron Weasley with a sharp gaze holding the rag tea trophy, with a happy smile on the corner of his mouth, as if he could keep him in a good mood as long as he saw the student unlucky and confined.

When Albert was secretly leaving, he heard Filch's cold voice coming from the prize showroom, "No, wipe it again, don't want to be lazy." ”

Then, in the midst of a burst of vomiting, Ron's screams were heard.

"What the hell are you doing!"

Filch looked at Ron, who was spitting slugs in his mouth, with a sneer on the corner of his mouth, "Wipe it clean, and you can go back after wiping, otherwise you won't want to rest tonight." ”

"Hasn't Ron's slugging problem been cured yet?"

Albert could probably guess what was going on over there, and he was speechless, he really didn't understand why Ron Weasley was reluctant to go to Madam Pomfrey for treatment, was this the so-called secrecy of medical treatment?

Or is it that even Madam Pomfrey can't cure his problems?

Albert took a shortcut and soon found himself in front of the Gryffindor common room.

"Honeyeaters. ”

"Where have you been?" The fat lady was obviously dissatisfied that she had just fallen asleep and was disturbed again.

"Dating. Albert said without thinking.

"Who, the girl named Isobel?" the fat lady seemed to become a little agitated.

"How do you know?" Albert said, raising an eyebrow.

"Everybody's getting word out of you. The fat lady smiled and said, "They say you're the youngest international wizard chess champion." ”

"Why is the portrait so gossipy?" Albert muttered quietly, "Can I go in?"

"Of course, remember to be early next time, and it's best to come back before curfew. The fat lady kindly reminded that the portrait spun forward.

"Got it, I'll pay attention next time. Albert walked in with a smile, sat down in his armchair, and glanced at the map.

Ginny Weasley reappeared in the bathroom a little faster than Albert had expected, and it seemed that Tom was just controlling Ginny Weasley down to check on the basilisk.

In fact, Albert wondered if the basilisk was hibernating, or if the basilisk had been active deep underground at Hogwarts.

For such a long time, it must have been fed, and with no one to feed it, it is impossible to feed such a huge basilisk by relying on those rats.

Moreover, the basilisk is supposed to eat meat.

Sure enough, if you look closely, it will feel strange.

After all, it is a basilisk that has lived for nearly the year before last, and even if it can hibernate again, it needs to eat.

Feed by Hogwarts house-elves, or can the basilisk leave the Chamber of Secrets and forage elsewhere?

Black Lagoon, for example?

This should not be very likely, otherwise it will definitely be noticed.

Moreover, Albert has always wondered how the basilisk attacks other people through pipes, could it be that there are more pipes and exits in Hogwarts than through passages?

No matter how you look at it, it's weird.

After all, the basilisk is not too small to appear in the hallway blatantly.

Otherwise, a big ugly snake passed by the hallway, and the professors and students in the classroom could not have noticed, and this kind of thing would soon spread throughout Hogwarts at once, and it would not be possible to hide it at all.

So, how exactly does it do it?

Could it be that the basilisk had been sneaking out of the entrance to the girls' bathroom on the second floor and sneaking up on the Muggle students around them?
