Chapter 281 The Hogwarts Party (Part [-])
How can there be someone behind me?
Rossi was startled when the lie was exposed by the person who suddenly appeared behind him.

Huo Ran turned around, only to see a tall, waist-length beautiful ghost floating there quietly.

Lady Gray, the resident ghost of Ravenclaw, whose real name is Helena Ravenclaw.

Rosie, who spent her time at Hogwarts, was no stranger to her.

"No, not a Hogwarts student?"

A trace of nervousness flashed across the fat lady's face, "Ms. Gray, shall I call the professor over?"

From the corner of the eye, she glanced at the fat lady who was about to leave, and Rossi, who had a calm face, greeted with a smile before Ms. Gray could speak:

"Long time no see, Helena!"

"Huh? You know me?"

With her nose held high, the slightly haughty Ms. Gray looked deeply at Rossi, "Who are you?"

Her brain was running fast, she raised her eyebrows:
"Helena, according to Ravenclaw tradition, you have to guess the answer to this puzzle yourself."

Ravenclaw does not have this tradition!
Ms. Gray was about to say this when Rossi added something meaningful:
"If it was Rowena, she would definitely not ask others for answers like you do."

Rowena Ravenclaw.

Founder of Ravenclaw House and mother of Lady Gray.

During Ms. Gray's lifetime, her greatest desire was to gain wisdom and prestige higher than her mother's.

As soon as Rossi's words came out, she immediately hit her weakness, and her delicate face curled up:
"Interesting, let me guess who you are."

Hearing what she said, Rossi immediately heaved a sigh of relief. Anyway, for the time being, the time to be completely exposed was delayed.

Ms. Gray turned to the fat lady, and said in a light tone: "Go about your business, don't worry, I will follow her."

"Uh, okay, okay."

Facing Ms. Gray, the fat lady always seemed a little submissive.

She wants to follow me all the time?
Rossi frowned slightly, and then relaxed it again.

Although she is a ghost, her status in the school is not low. As long as she is used properly, this is not necessarily a bad thing.

The point is, it can't deepen her suspicion, and it can't make the people she meets later become suspicious.

Thinking about it, Rosie slowed down and walked towards the Ravenclaw common room.

"Why are you walking slowly?"

Ms. Gray floated around her, "You left very quickly just now, are you in a hurry now?"

"It's timid to be close to the hometown!"

Rossi thought of an explanation casually, "If it weren't for Dippet's kindness, I might never come back to this place again."

She said it with confidence, and in a sense, she never lied.

"The feeling of being close to the hometown is timid... It's hard to turn down the kindness..."

Ms. Gray repeated the two words in a low voice, "Very charming words."

amount……

Has she not been indoctrinated with knowledge of these idioms?

Rossi originally thought that she had fantasies about her identity because of these two idioms, but who knew that she was savoring the idioms themselves.

Shaking his head strangely, Rosie bit the bullet and walked up the spiral staircase of the Ravenclaw Tower, moving up step by step.

However, Myrtle did not come out of the lounge as she expected until she approached a smooth wooden door without a handle or keyhole.

Looking at Rossi standing quietly at the door, Ms. Gray floated aside with her arms folded:
"Go in, we've come here, as long as you knock the door knocker, the door will open, have you forgotten?"

By the knocker she meant the eagle-shaped bronze knocker on the wooden door.

This is a test.

Although Rosie didn't often wander around the campus when she was studying in the copy of "Azkaban", she still went to more important places like the common room of the four colleges.

"Ranging the door knocker?"

Looking at Ms. Gray with a frown on purpose, she asked loudly, "Who changed Ravenclaw's tradition? Who does he think we are? Those Hufflepuffs who only know how to eat? Brave and foolish Gran Fendor? Or a Slytherin with a mismatch between ambition and intellect?"

Maybe it was because what she said was too straightforward, Ms. Gray put down her hands on her chest, and secretly looked at Rossi in surprise:

"I just tried you, the tradition here has not changed..."

Her tone was not as contemptuous as before.

Rossi let out a long "oh", and a smile of unknown meaning appeared on the corner of her mouth.Immediately afterwards, she stretched out her right hand and knocked lightly on the door.

As the knock on the door sounded, the eagle's beak on the door slowly opened, and asked in a gentle tone:

"If a prisoner is going to escape from prison, what should he know first?"

Ms. Gray cast her eyes on Rossi, and said without blinking:
"It's a philosophical question it often asks, and I suppose you don't know it?"

Are you kidding me, when I was in school, I studied liberal arts.

With some complaints in his heart, Rossi looked at the eagle mouth seriously:
"He needs to know first of all that he's in prison and be aware of the two concepts of freedom or not freedom."

"That's right."

A gentle and soft voice fell, and the wooden door creaked open.

The Ravenclaw common room was a wide circular room with walls lined with arched windows, elegantly hung with blue and bronze silks.

Without paying attention to the dome-like ceiling, Rosie first glanced at the Myrtle with thick braids sitting on the sofa by the wall, and then walked quickly to the alcove opposite the door.

In the alcove stands a white marble statue, which is Rowena Ravenclaw, the founder of Ravenclaw.

Pretending to be deep and staring at the statue with a faint smile on its face, Rossi silently made calculations in his heart.

Shall I pretend to be Rowena's reincarnation?
Glancing at Ms. Gray standing beside her with an awkward expression, she shook her head unobtrusively, dispelling this bold idea.

No, this identity is too easy to reveal, and if it is revealed, I am afraid that I will be torn apart by the angry Ms. Gray.

Also, I don't want to be a mother.

As if sensing something, Ms. Gray suddenly shuddered, looked at the statue of her mother strangely, and said impatiently:

"Hey, what's so good about her, how long are you going to stay here to see her? You don't come here just to see her, do you?"

At this time, Rosie had already made up her mind, and she asked with a smile on her face:
"You know Albus Dumbledore, don't you?"

"Of course, he's the Transfiguration professor at Hogwarts."

"Then do you know who his younger brother is?"

"His younger brother? I have a little impression, but I forgot what his name is. What's wrong?"

"His name is Aberforth Dumbledore."

"Oh, yes, that's the name, but why did you mention him?"

"You see, in a family, if there is a particularly famous person, no matter how hard the others try, they will be covered by his name. The world will always remember the most famous one."

When speaking of this, Rossi deliberately added a lot of emotion to his tone.

For this, Ms. Gray felt the same. If she didn't want to be covered by her mother's name for the rest of her life, she would not have stolen Ravenclaw's crown, nor would she have died because of it.

"This is the tragedy of being born into a celebrity family!"

"My name is Rosie, I don't have a last name at the moment."

While she was fascinated by the statue, Rosie said her name, and then left Ms. Gray who was still thinking wildly, and walked quickly to Myrtle, who was so absorbed in her own world that she didn't notice anyone else.

"Hey, little girl, what are you worrying about? Tell me, maybe we can help you."
