Journey through the heavens from Hogwarts

Chapter 48 The Unlucky Malfoy

Harry was stunned.At this time, a fat ghost came towards the table. He squatted down and passed directly through the middle of the table, his mouth wide open, and he happened to pass through a smelly salmon.

"If you put it through like this, can you taste it?" Harry asked him.

"Almost." The ghost said sadly, turned around and floated away.

Lin Xiao paused and said, "I think they miss the taste of these foods."

"Maybe, they should have gotten this food from the kitchen." Hermione said knowingly. She couldn't think of where else to get so much rotten food.

She held her nose and leaned forward to take a closer look at the rotting lamb belly.

"Let's go, I feel sick," Ron said.

Before they could turn around, a short male ghost suddenly emerged from under the table and stopped in mid-air in front of them.

"Hello, Peeves," Harry said cautiously.

Lin Xiao's eyes lit up when he saw Peeves. This ghost, Peeves, who likes to play pranks, is different from the ghosts around them. He is not pale and transparent.

On the contrary, he wore a bright orange party hat, a swirling bow tie, and a grin on his broad, bad-looking face.

"Peeves, I don't think you would choose to disturb Bloody Baron. After all, he is not far away." After Peeves saw Lin Xiao, his face was a little scared, but when he heard Bloody Baron Luo Shi started to tremble more obviously.

He was a little unlucky to think that he finally had a good idea for a prank and it just slipped away.

After hearing Lin Xiao's words, Peeves seemed a little disappointed and disappeared.

After a while, Ron's teeth chattered and he muttered, "It's really boring, let's go."

"Oh...you are right, let's go." Harry agreed.

Several people walked outside, nodding and smiling at every ghost who passed by and looked at them.Soon, they were hurrying down the candle-lit aisle.

"The pudding probably isn't done yet," Ron said hopefully, leading the way up the steps to the foyer.

At this time, Lin Xiao noticed a crawling sound in the pipe.

If Lin Xiao could understand what the basilisk said, he would know clearly that it was a voice directed at him and Hermione.

After all, only he and Hermione among the four of them were Muggle wizards. Lin Xiao pulled Hermione and winked at her.

The little witch also saw Harry staggering to a stop, grabbing the stone wall, listening intently, looking around, squinting up and down the dimly lit corridor.

She remembered the last time Harry had told them that he had heard a strange noise in the hallway.

"...tear you...tear you...kill you..."

It was that voice again, that cold, murderous voice he had heard in the hallway.

"Harry, what did you do-?" Ron said doubtfully.

"That voice came again—don't talk yet—"

"...I'm not full...I'm hungry...it's been a long, long time..."

"Listen!" Harry said urgently, and Ron froze, staring at him.

"...clean...the...dirty blood..."

Lin Xiao quietly said to Hermione, "It should be the basilisk that appears."

"Does Harry need to open the secret room next?" Hermione said softly.

Lin Xiao nodded, this matter had to rely on Harry. He wanted to delay the matter as long as possible, so it seemed that he had to move forward.After all, the long-range wizards in Harry's world are destined not to be approached.

The sound grew fainter... Harry was sure it was moving - moving upwards.He stared at the dark ceiling with a sudden feeling of fear and excitement; how could it possibly move upward?Could it be a ghost that the stone ceiling couldn't stop?

"This way," he shouted, breaking into a run, up the stairs and into the hall.The sound of the Halloween party in the auditorium echoed here, and it was unlikely to hear any other sounds.Harry ran up the marble stairs at full speed and arrived at the second floor, followed closely by Lin Xiao and the others.

"Shh!"

Harry's ears perked up.In the distance, from one floor above, the voice came again, and became fainter: "...I smell the smell of food...and the smell of blood!"

Then the three of them followed Harry to a corner on the third floor. On the wall in front of them, something shone brightly.They approached slowly, squinting to make out the details in the darkness.Between the two windows, on the wall a foot high from the ground, there were some writings daubed on it, glimmering under the light of the burning torch.

The chamber of secrets has been opened,

Those who are enemies of the heir, be vigilant.

This is of course Lin Xiao's handiwork, restoring the original work and recreating the scene.

He would never admit that he really couldn’t think of what to write!

"What's that - hanging down there?" said Ron, his voice trembling.

Harry and Ron walked cautiously in front, and Lin Xiao and Hermione followed behind, approaching the sign little by little, staring intently at the black shadow below.

It was Mrs. Norris, the caretaker's cat, her tail hanging from the torch stand, her body as stiff as a board, her eyes wide and staring, and her mouth wide open.

Lin Xiao didn't expect that Mrs. Loris was the one who got hit. Wait... Looking at Mrs. Loris's open mouth, couldn't it be that it was so unlucky?

He seemed to have put a lot of mice in the castle. Could it be that when he was catching mice, he encountered a basilisk that was eating.But it looked like it was still the basilisk seen through the water stains on the ground, otherwise even the cat would be dead.

Hermione suggested, "Let's leave quickly, otherwise people will come later and suspect that we did it."

"That's right, let's go quickly." Ron agreed.

Lin Xiao directly pulled Hermione, who was still waiting for them to leave together, towards the auditorium, but Harry seemed to be standing there thinking about something. Just as Ron was impatient to wait, he was about to pull him to prepare. When leaving.

A low noise, like distant thunder, told them that the party had just ended.From both ends of the corridor where they were, there was the sound of hundreds of feet stepping on the stairs, as well as the cheerful chatter and laughter of people after they had had their fill of tea and food.Then, students crowded into the aisle from both ends.

When the people in front saw the upside-down cat, the lively and chirping sounds suddenly disappeared.

Harry and Ron stood alone in the middle of the corridor. The students suddenly fell silent and crowded forward to watch this terrible scene.

In the silence, someone spoke loudly.

"Those who are enemies of the heir, beware! You are next, Mudbloods!"

It was Draco Malfoy's voice.He had already squeezed to the front of the crowd, looking at Mrs. Lorris who was hanging there still and stiff, with a sinister smile on his face.

At this time, Lin Xiao stood up quietly and mocked, "Oh...Mr. Malfoy, I think you can look behind you first."

After hearing Lin Xiao's words, Draco realized that when he said those words, the little wizards around him made a big circle around him and looked at him with strange eyes. Goyle and Crabbe motioned him to look back with crazy eyes.

He shivered violently all over, and with a sense of luck, he slowly turned his head and saw his good dean Snape standing behind him, staring at him coldly, and said , "It seems that our Mr. Malfoy seems to have a short memory. The school rules have been repeated 150 times, and the conditions are the same as last time."

Listening to Harry's gloating and laughing, Draco's face turned so red that he almost smoked.

Draco was furiously complaining in his mind why Goyle and Crabbe didn't remind him earlier, causing him to make a fool of himself!
