Connor's Hogwarts

Chapter 285 Chain of Fate
"Is this the crown you want?"

That night, in the Ravenclaw common room, Connor and Helena made an appointment to meet here.

"It's it! It's it! It's it!"

When Connor took out the crown, Helena's whole ghost became excited. She leaned over excitedly and reached out to grab the crown, but it was a pity that she was a ghost and couldn't touch the real thing. She put her hands through the crown and Kang Na. Na clasped her hands together.

Connor only felt that his hands had been plunged into the icy water, which felt so cold.

"Ms. Gray, please calm down."

Connor raised the crown high, and Helena's eyes followed the crown, looking eagerly like a child trying to grab candy
Helena finally calmed down, took a deep breath and said, "This is indeed Ravenclaw's diadem, there is no way I will admit it wrong."

Connor held the crown in front of his face and said, "Don't you feel the power of the soul inside? There is Voldemort's remnant soul in it, and he made the crown into his Horcrux."

Helena was taken aback for a moment, and then burst into anger: "How dare he! How dare he!"

Connor was speechless when he saw Helena's cold and trembling appearance, maybe this was the real powerless rage.

"Okay, Ms. Gray, I have found the diadem, can you tell me where the treasure is hidden now?"

Helena said blankly, "I don't know where the treasure is."

"."

"You don't know?!" Connor's voice rose baldly, which was incredible.

"Wh-what's the matter?! I've told you everything I know before!" Helena also raised her voice guilty of being at a loss for what to do with Connor's strange gaze.

Connor stared at Helena, as if looking at an Aqua: "You don't have anything else to tell me?"

"No more."

"You really don't know the treasure spot?"

"I don't know."

"Then what's the use of you wanting a crown?"

"This is the key."

"Even if you have the key, you don't know where the door is!"

"Aren't you trying to solve the puzzle?"

".So this is the cooperation you told me about?"

"No, isn't it? I've already told you what I know."

"."

Connor stayed where he was, so it was wishful thinking he thought finding the crown would unlock the next clue?The female ghost's cooperation is "you are responsible for finding the crown, you are responsible for solving the puzzles, and I am only responsible for the beautiful appearance".

Seeing that Connor's face was getting darker and darker, Helena also started to panic, and she said guiltyly: "You agreed to cooperate with me at the beginning. Don't deny it"

Connor laughed angrily: "Heh, you don't give me any useful information, how can I help you find the treasure spot?"

"Who said there is no! Didn't I tell you that you need a crown to really enter the treasure point? If you don't have a crown, even if you crack the secret of the stairs, you won't be able to find the real entrance!"

"Wait, you just said the secret of the stairs, right? That is to say, I went in the right direction at the beginning? The secret of Ravenclaw is hidden in the changing stairs?"

"Of course, the stairs at Hogwarts were all designed by my mother, don't you know that?"

Connor rubbed the space between his brows, and finally got something to gain, at least he confirmed that he (Conan) was not doing useless work before.
"Then what do you think we should do next? Collaborator." Connor glared angrily at the useless female ghost in front of him.

In the past, looking at her appearance of being gentle and quiet, she thought she was a master before she died, but after a deeper understanding, she found out that she was actually a piece of shit. And, is this really Ravenclaw's daughter?It's really embarrassing enough.

"What kind of eyes do you have! Are you looking down on me?!" Helena's eyes widened.

"Yes."

"." Helena almost suffocated in one breath, her chest was swollen, and she was very angry. She took a deep breath, and then said slowly:

"Then it's up to you to decipher the secret of the stairs. If you need my help, just ask. Our purpose is the same. My requirements are not high, as long as you find the treasure point and bring me with you." , I think my request is not too much."

"Tsk, okay." Connor curled his lips, raised the crown in his hand and said, "Then the remnant soul inside will not affect this key, right?"

"No, it has no effect."

"That's good." Connor nodded and put away the crown, then suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, Ms. Gray, I still have a question for you."

"Please tell me, if I know I will answer."

Connor lifted the scarf, revealing the silver necklace around his neck, and asked, "Now are you willing to tell me something about [Chain of Fate]?"

Helena's complexion changed, and she remembered that at the end of last semester, it was this kid who was chasing after her to ask this question. She had avoided it before, but now it seemed that she couldn't avoid it.

She hesitated and said, "Well, what do you want to know?"

Seeing that Helena was willing to speak, Connor's eyes lit up, and he said quickly, "I want to know how to untie this thing."

"Untie it? Can't you untie it yourself? Oh, if you can't, then it's the magic that comes with this collar, and it has nothing to do with the chain of fate itself."

"." Connor twitched the corner of his mouth: "What do you mean?"

"[Chain of Destiny] is just a rare magic material. It is known. It does not require any magic. The metal itself can directly affect the soul. It is a meteorite from outside the sky, which is very rare."

Helena lowered her brows and explained reluctantly, "The main material used for Ravenclaw's crown is [Chain of Fate]."

"Is it a chain of souls? This is..." Connor had a strange look on his face, and I'm still summoning souls?Why does this thing have an oriental fantasy flavor?

"What did you say?"

"Nothing, just keep talking."

"The Chain of Fate also has another property—there is a mysterious connection between the magic items refined from the same piece of metal, that is, the same piece of meteorite. This is also the main reason why it is called "Fate". The simplest expression Because people who wear [Chain of Fate] at the same time can perceive each other's position."

Connor nodded, he had already experienced this effect firsthand.

Helena said in a low voice: "Do you know why the world calls it the Chain of Fate instead of the Stone of Fate or the Iron of Fate?"

Connor shrugged, saying he didn't understand.

"Because the [Chain of Fate] known today all comes from my mother, she once owned a large meteorite, she used the essence of the meteorite to make her crown, and all the remaining meteorites were refined into a long chain. chains..."

"...that's the chain on Barrow's body. When he put on the shackles, he found me who stole the crown. He died wearing the shackles, so he couldn't get rid of the shackles even if he became a ghost."
