Head of Teaching at Hogwarts

In the auditorium, all the little wizards were in ecstasy, staring closely at the basilisk made into a magic puppet above, and excitedly discussing the upcoming competition with their companions around them.

Russell is very satisfied with the performance of the little wizards. He can believe that with the stimulation of the new version, they will be more actively involved in the Wizards League Glory competition.

In order to win the game and improve his rank, he must learn all kinds of magic knowledge, so that Russell's magic ability can also be improved.

"It's worth my hard work to create such a luxurious version of the update expansion pack. I even developed a magical version of 3D projection and AR technology based on the technology of the Muggle world."

Russell announced the disbandment. He was going to return to the office to study the secrets of Slytherin and then go to bed. A unique figure attracted Russell's attention.

Several first-year wizards did not leave with the large group because they were addicted to the discussion. Then when they were about to get up and leave, a young wizard was suddenly pressed on a chair and could not stand up.

"Peeves, come out!" Russell waved in the direction of the little wizard.

Then, with a pop, a dwarf suddenly appeared in the air, with a pair of evil black eyes and a big mouth. He floated cross-legged above the suppressed little wizard, and pressed the little wizard's legs with both hands. .

"Ho ho ho!" He let out a sly chuckle before suddenly rising into the air and preparing to leave.

"Peeves, come here!" Russell ordered.

Peeves obediently floated over. Russell was probably the only person Peeves was afraid of at Hogwarts. After all, he had tied up Peeves and made him listen to his lessons.

Now that he has become the headmaster of Hogwarts, Peeves, who was already a little afraid of Russell, has a lot more respect for him.

The little troublemaker took off his green hat, bowed comically towards Russell, made another cute face, and then left.

Russell stopped him again and said, "Peeves, come with me for a walk around Hogwarts!"

For a moment, Russell seemed to see clearly the three "???" symbols on Peeves' head, and did not pay much attention to Peeves's own opinions.

He directly used the flying spell to take Peeves around the Hogwarts castle at will. Peeves tried to sneak away several times, and either suddenly became invisible or suddenly got into a pair of unmanned armor. Or simply got under Russell's robe and pretended to be gone.

But none of this could escape Russell's eyes. Every time Peeves walked away, Russell would catch him back with a wave of his hand and let him stay with him, but he would not say a word to him. Let this frizzy troublemaker float in the air and rub his hands and feet in a hurry.

Russell simply told him that Peeves would not even think about leaving today unless ordered by Russell himself. After saying this, Peeves was instantly frustrated.

Like a deflated bag, it hung on Russell's waist.

Russell walked with Peeves like this for half an hour, inspecting every empty classroom in Hogwarts Castle. Then Russell said: "You can go, Peeves!"

"Ho ho ho!" After a burst of joyful shouts, Peeves ejected directly and left Russell's waist without looking back.

But Russell felt that he might be one step closer to touching the truth about Slytherin - the words he told Peeves to leave just now were said in Parseltongue.

Peeves actually understood Russell's Parseltongue without any obstacles. Considering Peeves' mental state just now, Russell didn't think this was a prank.

In other words, Peeves is a Parseltongue!

Parseltongue is the hallmark of Slytherin. According to research in the wizarding world, only Slytherin himself and his descendants have the ability to be born with Parseltongue.

To round things off, Peeves may be a legacy of Slytherin himself.

Of course, Slytherin himself would not be so harsh. Russell speculated that Peeves might be the product of one of Slytherin's experiments.

This is also very consistent with the origin of Peeves.

First of all, although Peeves is called a ghost, he is not a ghost or ghost. Most ghosts and ghosts have a hard time interfering with the real world. If they encounter a table, wall or human body, they will go directly through it. However, Peeves can use his The body is in direct contact with people and various objects.

Secondly, Peeves has existed since the beginning of Hogwarts. He has lived for more than a thousand years and is a contemporary of the four giants who founded Hogwarts. To some extent, Peeves even It is an immortal creature.

Slytherin's own research direction happened to be related to the soul and immortality, so how could Russell not doubt it.

......

Back inside the principal's office at Hogwarts, Russell opened the diary again and started a conversation with the Dark Lord inside.

"I discovered something pretty incredible today," Russell wrote.

"What is it?" Diary asked curiously. He has been a little irritable recently because after every communication, he will be locked into a box filled with various magic seals, making him completely unable to understand the outside world. I don’t even know how much time has passed.

"The operator behind the basilisk in Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets was found out. He is Peeves from Hogwarts. Some people say that he is a descendant of Slytherin himself. To be honest, I didn't expect Slytherin." I have such a unique taste.”

Without blinking, Russell wrote his prepared lie.

The bait had been thrown out, and Russell waited patiently for his prey to take the bait.
