Chapter 227: Rove's Death?

Helena stared at Shirley and the silver pendant in her hand in amazement, her whole body froze, and her heart was shocked beyond measure.

This is the key to Gryffindor Castle, why is it on Shirley?

Hermione also looked at this scene with a look of disbelief.

Only Rove is calm...... Of course, it's also comparative.

He did know that Shirley had a relationship with Gryffindor, but he didn't expect that the pendant she had worn since she was a child would be the key to the castle.

Rove suddenly remembered that he had returned to a thousand years ago with the pendant, but unfortunately he didn't take it out at that time for Gryffindor to see, otherwise it would definitely scare him!

Helena was in a daze for a long time, then finally came back to her senses and asked, "Shirley, where did you get this key?" ”

"The grandmother of the monastery said that it was on me when it found me." Shirley reached out and took the pendant off and held it tightly in her palm.

"I've always worn a talisman around my neck."

"That's right......" Helena said, a little disappointed.

Shortly after the death of her mother, Ravenclaw, Gryffindor disappeared, and Helena had always suspected that he had done it.

The reason is very simple, after he rejected Barrow's pursuit, he was killed by Barrow, who destroyed if he couldn't get it.

Gryffindor also liked his own mother, who also rejected him.

With Barrow 'Jewel in front', it's hard for Helena not to suspect the missing Gryffindor...... Did the same thing!

And Shirley has this key, most likely a descendant of Gryffindor, her parents and elders may know the truth of the year.

But since Shirley was an orphan and grew up in a monastery, she couldn't find anything.

However, Helena believes that sooner or later, with her wisdom, she will find evidence to prove Gryffindor's crime!

If Rove knew Helena's thoughts, he would probably sigh with emotion, only the wrong name, not the wrong nickname...... The stupid beauty lives up to its name.

On the side, Hermione couldn't wait to say, "Shirley, come and see if you can open the door." ”

Shirley snorted, she walked to the door, pointed the keybody into the keyhole, and slowly pushed it in, stuffing the entire keybody into the hole.

But there was no movement from the door, and just when Rove couldn't help but wonder if he had guessed wrong, the door suddenly "buzzed" slowly inward, revealing a large foyer.

The corners of Helena's mouth curled slightly, reminding, "Before you go in, you'd better use the Bubble Head Charm." ”

Rove nodded, this castle may not have been occupied by people for many years, the air quality is extremely worrisome, and it is indeed time to use the bubble head charm to protect yourself.

Wait a minute...... When did Helena become so smart?

Rove didn't think much of it, he cast a bubble head charm on himself, and strode into the hallway, he looked up, looked around the room, and was stunned for a moment.

The foyer is surmounted by a large flat dome with sail arches, flanked by eight Corinthian columns, delicately carved with honeysuckle grass at the top, and the frieze is also covered with intricately carved ornamentation.

Coupled with the huge daylight windows, the foyer space is extremely spacious and magnificent.

But that's not the point, it's the foyer interior:

Walls, floors, and domes are all covered with gold leaf; The columns are of white marble, but also inlaid with gold leaf; The junction of the column head, the column base and the column body are all inlaid with gold-filled copper hoops.

Even the windows are painted with gold dust, so the top and bottom and left and right reflect each other, golden and dazzling.

There were also gold particles flying in the airβ€”the dust that had been peeled off by the gold.

The golden dust suspended in the air blends with the brilliant sunlight pouring in through the large windows, creating an atmosphere of extreme luxury.

Rove couldn't help but take a deep breath, and despite the bubble head charm, he still felt like his lungs were gilded with a layer of gold.

Shirley and Hermione, who were next to the boy, were doing the same.

Rove sighed softly, no wonder Helena reminded them to use the bubble head charm, it turned out to be the reason.

It's still shallow for my own knowledge.

It occurred to him that his old Scamander mansion, which was perched on a fertile plain, was like a slum compared to Gryffindor Castle.

Their Scamander family is really in trouble!

But then again, Shirley has the only key to the castle, doesn't that mean that the castle is hers - rounding off, isn't this castle also Rove's?

Rove walked around the foyer, and near the arch, he found two majestic lion statues:

The whole body is made of gold, the teeth are ivory, and a pair of gem-encrusted eyes are sparkling...... It's worth a lot of money at first glance.

They visited the foyer and walked along a porch into the living room.

It's not as luxurious as the foyer, and it can even be said to be extremely shabby:

There was a thick cloud of dust everywhere, the wooden frame against the wall had collapsed, the rotting wood had broken and collapsed, the carrying utensils had fallen to the floor, and the smell of mold had filled the room.

There were several portraits hanging on the walls, framed in large gilded frames, but the portraits in the frames had lost their magic and were completely immobile due to age.

Names are written in bold underneath, all of which are also blurred.

Just as Rove was looking around, looking for valuable magical items, Shirley's hurried voice suddenly rang out.

"Rove, come over here and see what this is?!"

Rov immediately ran towards Shirley, and then he saw a large pool of blood on the ground in the distance!

The blood had dried up, completely solidified on the floor, as black as night.

Next to the pool of blood, there was an open wooden box.

Rove picked up the box and found that there was nothing in the box, and there was no text engraved on it, except for a simple pattern on the lid:

Triangular eyes, with a vertical line in the middle of the pupil.

Deathly Hallows...... No, it should be said that it is a symbol of ancient wizards!

Rove narrowed his eyes and stared at the box, and for a moment, he remembered the picture of his own death that he had seen in the Ravenclaw Death Well!

The two wizards stood opposite each other, one was his future self, very tall, and seemed to be sixteen or seventeen years old.

There was also a wizard who had her back to herself, but judging by that graceful back, she was certain to be a ...... Young Witch

Then the young witch held a sword in her hand, and suddenly stabbed deeply into Rove's chest, and when he took it away, the sword remained inside, and he snorted and fell to the ground.

Right at the feet of the two of them, there was an open box.

Rove stared at the chest in his hand, the one he had seen in the Well of Death...... Same.

The boy looked at the pool of blood on the ground again, and for some reason, he was terrified for a moment.
