The Periodic Table of Words at Hogwarts

As soon as his feet stepped onto the jogging platform between the first floor and the underground floor, Zhang Qi immediately pumped hard and smelled the smell in the air carefully.

In addition to the damp smell that the underground should have, there is also a strong fishy and putrid smell in the air, which is the smell that many reptiles have.

The basilisk was here a while ago, but it's not here now.

After listening carefully to the sounds coming from the corridor ahead, Zhang Qi did not hear the sound of scales rubbing against the wall or floor tiles, but he seemed to hear the sound of human footsteps.

Of course, only Zhang Qi can hear these sounds.

"Ah, this is it."

Zhang Qi pointed to a bathroom on the basement floor and said to Professor Flitwick.

"It's just that the space inside is relatively small. You go to the toilet first. We'll go there when you're done."

"Well, okay then".

Professor Flitwick originally wanted to refuse, but it was true that his urge to urinate was getting stronger and he could no longer hold it in any longer.

"That thing should have gone, but its pungent smell is still in the air."

While Professor Flitwick was going to the toilet, Zhang Qi spoke to Filch solemnly.

"We can't let down our guard yet, Mr. Zirol. I'll take the lead, and you'll be covering behind me."

Filch quietly pulled out half of the silver sword in his tent, Zhang Qi followed him, and the two of them slowly groped toward the darkness ahead.

In the darkness, Zhang Qi listened carefully for a while, and indeed there was no other sound except the voices in front of him.

"Why don't you believe me Hermione! That voice just disappeared, so that thing was definitely here just now."

A boy's voice came faintly from the dark corridor ahead, and then a girl's voice rang out immediately.

"But Harry, further ahead is the Hufflepuff common room. It is the most protected room in the entire Hogwarts. There is absolutely no way that the monster you are talking about is hiding... ..ah"!

A scream filled with fear suddenly came from the darkness ahead, and this time even Filch, who did not have such sensitive hearing, heard it.

The two looked at each other in the darkness, then decisively pulled out the long sword and Desert Eagle, and then rushed forward with long strides.

Mr. Filch was once the most powerful vampire hunter on the European continent. Due to the special nature of this job, he also developed the ability to accurately hear voices and identify locations in the dark. In addition, he had lived in Hog ​​for so many years. In Woz Castle, he is naturally very familiar with all the roads, so he can accurately find the road even with his eyes closed at this time.

Zhang Qi, on the other hand, relied on his improved hearing and smell, as well as the military training he had received in his previous life and this life, as well as the beast-like intuition given to him by the dragon's blood, the ability and effort to run without any obstacles with his eyes closed. Erqi is almost on par with him, and even a little better than him.

Soon, the two of them smelled the smell of burning rosin, which proved that there was a stable torch light source in front of them, but at this time, the two of them still did not dare to open their eyes easily.

"Mr. Filch? Also, there is classmate Hilbert"?

Hermione's stammering voice came from not far away.

Only then did Filch and Zhang Qi dare to open their eyes, because it was absolutely impossible for the trio to speak like this if they were still in danger.

"Cedric him"...

Ron on the side was completely unable to speak a complete sentence.

The two people who had just opened their eyes were stunned when they looked at the strange scene in front of them.

Hufflepuff's prefect Cedric was standing there, holding a delicate brown paper bag with the Habitat logo of high-end stationery printed on it. He stood there with a smile on his face and stepped forward. It seemed like I was going to meet my girlfriend (which was actually the case).

But at this moment, the handsome and sunny boy had turned into a statue made entirely of stone, a statue that was lifelike in every detail, even every hair had turned into stone.

"Damn, what did you do to him"!

Filch angrily grabbed the platinum handle of his cane and roared at the three little ones in front of him who almost wet their pants.

"I, we don't know how he became like this. Harry said just now that he heard some strange sounds, so we followed that sound."

Ron, who was almost frightened to tears, was speechless, especially when he saw a silver sword hidden in the oak cane in Filch's hand.

They went out at night a lot last semester and this semester. Could it be that Filch didn't catch them and got so angry that he wanted to kill them?

Thinking of this, a chill suddenly spread from the tailbone to the forehead. The three people who felt that their lives were threatened immediately turned their expectant eyes to Zhang Qi.

At this time, Zhang Qi had just inserted the Desert Eagle back into the holster on his waist, and then looked at the wall beside him with a solemn expression.

"Mr. Filch, here".

Zhang Qi said in a solemn tone.

Filch turned to look in the direction Zhang Qi was pointing, and immediately saw two rows of blood-red fluorescent letters on the stone wall next to him.

"The Chamber of Secrets has been opened, and those who are enemies of the heir of Slytherin will be destroyed."

"You petrified Cedric and then planned to blame Slytherin"?

Zhang Qi deliberately put a hint of unkindness in his words, turned to ask the three little ones.

"No, not us"!

Harry defended himself hastily.

"Really? There are only four people who did not attend the evening banquet today. Apart from the three of you, it is Ron's sister Ginny Weasley. Do you want to tell me that a girl with no strength can Defeat an outstanding fourth year Hufflepuff student and have him be subdued without a sound?"

There was suspicion and contempt in Zhang Qi's eyes. At this time, he really admired his acting skills.

He has perfectly pointed the way for these three brave little guys. It is estimated that Hermione, the smartest among the three, will realize everything soon.

"You mean Ginny didn't attend today's party? Oh no, she might be in danger too"!

After listening to Zhang Qi's words, Ron slapped his forehead fiercely and shouted anxiously.

"Well, what happened? Argus. Why did you all come here when I went to the toilet... Oh, Merlin's beard, what happened here!"

Professor Flitwick, who had just finished draining the water in the toilet, found that there was no one outside when he opened the toilet door, so he followed the footsteps in front of him and came here.

As a result, I didn't expect to see such an exciting scene all of a sudden.
