Hogwarts: I am the White Demon King
#187 - Chapter 187: Get Information from the Ghosts
With a whoosh, everyone looked at Harry.
A special clue?
So impressive.
Is this the strength of the Savior?
Meeting everyone's gaze, Harry couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. He steadied himself and continued.
"I heard through a special channel that the Chamber of Secrets was opened for the second time on Halloween."
Hiss—
Hearing Harry's words, the students couldn't help but gasp, making outstanding contributions to global warming.
"Opened for the second time?"
"When was the first time?"
"Who opened it the first time?"
"This time, Filch's cat was attacked. Who was attacked the first time?"
"Potter, stop being mysterious and tell us everything you know, so we can discuss it together."
The classroom was chaotic, with the little wizards' questions coming one after another. They had too many details they wanted to know.
Faced with everyone's questions, Harry looked helpless.
He had gotten this news from that house-elf, Dobby, last time, but because Ron got up in the middle of the night, the house-elf was startled and disappeared.
As for who opened it the first time and when it was opened, he didn't have time to ask at all.
For the past two weeks, he, Ron, and Hermione had been searching for relevant information.
But they hadn't found any useful information. It was as if the school had completely covered up the matter.
Harry spread his hands: "Unfortunately, my friends and I have been investigating for a long time, but we haven't found anything."
"There are no records in the school history, and no books in the library record this matter."
"I see..."
The little wizards nodded in disappointment and then looked at Sebastian.
Looking at the students' expectant eyes, Sebastian smiled slightly, deciding to give them some hints.
"There are many ways to investigate. In addition to consulting books, you can also obtain information by asking others."
As soon as the little wizards heard this, they began to discuss it. "But everyone doesn't know, who can we ask...?"
"You can broaden your thinking. In addition to inquiring with classmates and teachers, don't forget that Hogwarts has a special existence—ghosts."
"They have lived in Hogwarts for a long time, perhaps you can ask them something."
The little wizards' eyes lit up.
Ghosts!
How could they have forgotten about them?
Professor Swann's mind is too flexible.
No sooner said than done, as soon as class was over, the little wizards immediately began to discuss and assigned tasks properly.
Harry was assigned to Nearly Headless Nick;
Cedric was assigned to Hufflepuff's Fat Friar;
......
In the Gryffindor tower.
"Hello, Nick," Harry found Nearly Headless Nick and asked, "I want to ask you something."
"Oh, Harry," Nick lowered his head slightly, his head almost rolling off with his movement, "Of course. What is troubling my Gryffindor pride so much?"
Harry scratched his head, carefully choosing his words: "Do you know about the Chamber of Secrets at Hogwarts? It is said that it was opened a long time ago…"
Nick's tone was somewhat hollow: "The Chamber of Secrets? Oh, that's a terrible rumor. To be honest, I don't know much about the Chamber of Secrets."
"It is rumored to have been built by Slytherin himself, but I have never seen it with my own eyes, nor do I know when it was opened."
Harry was a little disappointed, but he thought about it.
This time the Chamber of Secrets was opened, it caused a school-wide sensation.
Then the last time the Chamber of Secrets was opened, it should have caused a stir.
So, he changed his angle and asked: "Nick, do you remember any major events that happened at Hogwarts in the past few decades?"
Hearing this, Nick's face showed a thoughtful look: "Oh, asking like that reminds me, there was indeed one thing that impressed me."
"About 50 years ago, a Gryffindor student was expelled."
"Moreover, his wand was broken."
"This had a great impact at the time, you know, Hogwarts rarely expels students."
Harry's eyes widened: "Expelled? Why? Do you know who that student was?"
Nick nodded, his head shaking again: "I don't remember his name, but that student is the current gamekeeper."
"As for the reason for the expulsion..." Nick said in a low voice.
"The situation was very complicated at the time. There were rumors that he caused the death of a student."
"However, he has always insisted that he is innocent."
"I'm not sure about the specifics."
The gamekeeper?
That's Hagrid!
Thinking of this, Harry was shocked beyond words.
He really couldn't believe that Hagrid would cause the death of a student.
Could it be that he opened the Chamber of Secrets and released the monster inside?
But it doesn't make sense. If that were the case, Headmaster Dumbledore shouldn't have let him be the gamekeeper.
Harry's mind was in a mess. He nodded. Although he felt a little heavy in his heart, he understood that this was the most valuable clue he had obtained so far.
"Thank you, Nick," Harry said sincerely, "This is very important to me."
"It's nothing," Nick smiled slightly, his head almost falling off again, "If you need more help, come find me anytime."
Watching Nick float away, Harry sorted out the information he had just obtained in his mind.
It seems that he must find Hagrid to find out what happened.
........................
In the Auror training class, everyone actively exchanged the latest information they had collected.
"I found out that the first time the Chamber of Secrets was opened was fifty years ago."
"I also found out that a senior named Tom Riddle caught the person who opened the Chamber of Secrets, so he also received the school's special contribution award."
"I also asked about a clue. The student that Senior Riddle caught seems to be the current gamekeeper—Hagrid, but I haven't confirmed the truth of this clue yet."
Hearing this, Harry immediately defended Hagrid: "I have confirmed that Hagrid did not open the Chamber of Secrets. He was wronged."
"He raised an Acromantula at the time. People at the time regarded the Acromantula as the monster in the Chamber of Secrets, so Hagrid was expelled."
Thinking of the Acromantula that was bigger than a carriage, Harry couldn't help but shudder.
"I found that Acromantula and confirmed it. It said that the monster in the Chamber of Secrets is the natural enemy of the Acromantula."
Hearing this, Cedric added: "I also think that the monster in the Chamber of Secrets is not an Acromantula."
"With the help of the Fat Friar, I found the student who was killed by the monster in the Chamber of Secrets—Moaning Myrtle."
"She said that she died because she saw a pair of yellow eyes."
"However, she didn't see what kind of monster it was."
Feeling that the time was almost right, Sebastian clapped his hands, attracting the students' attention.
"Very good. With everyone's efforts, the clues are now very clear."
"It is very clear what the monster in the Chamber of Secrets is."
Sebastian glanced around and asked encouragingly.
"Is there any classmate who has figured out what that monster is?"
