In the Forbidden Forest, a sturdy figure shuttled among the tall trees, layers of vines, and half-human tall grass and thorns.He's holding an umbrella and it looks kind of pink.He ran clumsily but quickly, followed by a man in an old overcoat, and behind him, a tall man with dark hair followed closely.

"Hagrid! Stop! Damn you, come back!" The black-haired man raised his wand and shouted angrily, "Remus—you have to stop! Merlin! Remus! Listen to me! ,you forgot--"

"Go back! Go back! I'll settle this matter! I'll ask if it—its family did it! I raised it, and I'm responsible for it!"

"Don't be silly! They'll eat you!" Remus yelled, trying to cast Hagrid with a Tripping Charm, but it didn't work. "It's just a big spider! It can't do magic!"

Hagrid choked up, but didn't stop at all: "You don't know—it learned magic badly! I'm afraid it learned magic from bad people! Besides it, who else is so familiar with Hogwarts? It was in Hogwarts I grew up..."

The distance between them is getting farther and farther.Hagrid's pace was not something that any wizard could catch up with.The moonlight fell from the layers of branches and leaves, and Remus's footsteps gradually slowed down.

"No! Remus! Restrain—you can't—" Sirius galloped past.

But there was no way, Remus had been running for too long just now, he was emotionally agitated, and now he couldn't control himself at all.His clothes were torn, his head was deformed, and his legs became longer... He roared in pain and turned into a werewolf again.

The running figure of Sirius turned into a huge black dog in an instant, and he rushed towards the werewolf.

Under the wisps of moonlight, bark and grass roots splashed everywhere, and two black shadows wrestled together.A little further away, huge spiders crawled all over the sky, rushing towards that big guy...

Harry leaned against the wall, feeling dizzy and almost vomiting.He struggled to raise his head, and found that he had come to the unused girls' bathroom on the second floor, and the invisibility cloak slipped under his feet.

He took a breath, raised his wand, pushed open the dilapidated wooden door, and walked in.

Gritting his teeth, he shouted into the empty room, "Where is Albus? Where is it?"

"The Chamber of Secrets. It's obvious, isn't it?"

"Where's the entrance? Let me in!"

"As you wish, go ahead and die, Harry Potter! For the sake of your courage, I will spare your brother for a while!"

There was a hissing sound in his head, and Harry recognized it.It is snake language.Voldemort can speak Parseltongue?

Yes, that's very possible.Harry checked several books, and most of those who could speak Parselton came from Slytherin, and wizards regarded speaking Parseltongue as an evil force.No one could be more evil than Voldemort.Of course he would.

"Open the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets." Harry said, staring ahead, without any movement.He walked forward and saw a small snake printed on the right side of a faucet.Facing the snake, he repeated in snake language: "Open."

A pool of water in front of Harry was moving.It rumbled back, exposing the tube below, like a hole through which a man could slip.

Grasping his wand firmly in his hand, Harry walked to the pipe and glanced down.It's pitch black, and you can't see the bottom at a glance.He closed his eyes, jumped loudly, and then let out a series of screams.

"You mean, Albus Potter was involved in this diary?" Dumbledore looked at the blank page, his penetrating eyes looked at Draco, who was still panting heavily .Draco was restless, and nodded patiently.

Lily clutched her wand, expressionless, but anyone could see how much her hands were shaking.

They are all gathered in the principal's office now.Dumbledore, Heads of the four Houses, Lily, Snape and Auror Kingsley.Dudley sat slumped in a chair in the office, seemingly asleep.The atmosphere was very tense, and no one dared to breathe loudly, watching Dumbledore.The latter lowered his head and opened the notebook, which was blank from beginning to end.

"The breath of black magic." Snape moved closer and said in a cold voice.

"That's right..." Dumbledore held the diary, pulled out his wand from the pocket of his robe, and chanted several spells into the diary that Draco had never heard before.But the book did not respond.

"It doesn't show where Albus has been taken, I guess it has served its purpose." said Dumbledore, closing the book, which he stuffed into his pocket. "Everyone, check this castle and try to find it... He opened the secret room and left a warning... There must be intentions and traces."

"...Do you know who that person is?" Draco asked suddenly.

Dumbledore looked at him gravely.On the shelf behind him, Phoenix Fox chirped in a low voice, making a pleasant sound.Dumbledore stroked the wings of the phoenix and shook his head: "I'm not sure. It's not like his means. He hates failure...but he was frustrated by Harry, more than once. If he can enter the castle, he won't use it." Chamber of Secrets or monsters...he'll do it himself, face to face...he won't pretend to be someone else's. That's who he is."

Draco was shocked.Voldemort?Will it be Voldemort?That's right.On the way he ran over, his head turned countless times, the book, the diary, the theft of Malfoy Manor, and the Dark Lord's trusteeship, he had already guessed it.

but……

As Dumbledore said, the only thing Voldemort wanted to do when he entered Hogwarts was to kill Harry and Albus, but in everything that happened before, it was others who were killed instead of Voldemort.The fact that Albus disappeared in a strange way doesn't prove that Voldemort did it.

"When and where did Albus get this diary?" asked Dumbledore.

Draco shook his head slightly, completely oblivious to it.he does not know.

Things seem to be deadlocked.

The deans of the college were about to leave, and tried to find it according to Dumbledore's instructions.At this time, the door of the principal's office was pushed open, and three redheads bumped into each other and rolled in.Freys and George lifted Ron, whose hands and feet were still shaking.

He looked at Dumbledore, trembling, and said, "It's the basilisk, Headmaster, the basilisk passed through the pipes - water, mirrors, reflections, they didn't see directly - not dead, but petrified!"

"Oh!" Everyone suddenly realized, with surprise on their faces, they finally had a clue!Professor McGonagall gave a cheer.

Dumbledore's eyes brightened, and he looked at Ron with a kind smile: "It seems that I am too old... I have forgotten so much! Basilisk, yes... Very good, Mr. Weasley. "

However, Ron's next sentence shattered all their surprises - "Harry is gone! Sir! Harry had a headache and kept rolling... Then he, he put on the Invisibility Cloak and went somewhere!" "

"Harry! Oh, no!" Lily tilted her body and grabbed the back of the chair for support so as not to fall down.Snape looked at her, but said nothing.He himself grabbed the back of the sofa next to him.Lily cried: "It's—oh, my children!"

"We've got to hurry—" said Professor McGonagall.

Her words were interrupted by another wave of intruders.This time it was Hagrid with blood on his face and dirty body, and Sirius with his clothes torn and slender wounds on his body, and the two of them crossed their arms, wrapped in an old coat, and the shirt inside was torn into strands Remus.Remus tilted his head, fainting.

"How did he—" Lily asked in surprise.

"Forgot...to take the medicine." Snape straightened up.

But Sirius ignored Snape.With the help of Professor Sprout, he put Remus on the carpet aside, turned to Dumbledore and said, "Hagrid heard from the spider - there was a big snake at the school! That snake killed a lot of spiders." , in the pipes—on the second floor..."

"Second floor?" Draco exclaimed.He remembered!That day, Myrtle...

"The girls' bathroom on the second floor—that's where Myrtle was found, right? She was killed by the basilisk! The basilisk is on the second floor..."

The secret room may also be on the second floor.

Dumbledore immediately got up and walked towards the door.Lily and Snape followed closely behind him, then the Heads, Kingsley.Sirius looked at Remus on the ground and hesitated for a moment.Fred and George nodded to him, and he and Hagrid followed immediately.

"Stay here!" Dumbledore turned around suddenly, and said sharply to Draco and Ron who were about to follow, "Wait for news!" He had never been so serious.

Fred and George quickly grabbed them both.Draco and Ron still wanted to struggle, Snape also turned his head, and said to them in a cold voice: "Go to Madam Pomfrey and tell her what's going on here! Draco, go to my office and find the mana recovery potion !"

They left in a hurry.Fred and George also grabbed Draco and Ron, warning them not to cause trouble for the adults.

Harry didn't know how long it took before he slid out of the twisting pipe and landed on the pile of bones.He got up and looked around. From the light of the tip of his wand, he could vaguely see that the surrounding walls were stone, damp and sticky.Across the front is a slope.When he walked in, he realized that it was the skin that the snake shed.It was so long and thick that Harry could already imagine a gigantic snake right in front of him.It must be full of green, with very bright patterns. It is said that the more colorful the pattern, the more poisonous the snake.toxicity?Oh, don't worry about it at all, I might be seen dead by it before it bites me.

And waiting for him is not only a big snake, but also a wizard more terrifying than the big snake, Voldemort.

"It's okay, it's okay..." Harry cheered himself up in a low voice, turned over the slough, turned several times along the long tunnel, and finally found a wall with a round stone door.Carved on the door were two great snakes intertwined, with large, shining emeralds set in their eyes.Harry thought to himself how he could avoid the real snake, the basilisk looking straight at it, and found, sadly, that there was no way.He couldn't think of any spell that would shut out the basilisk's eyes.

No way, Albus was inside.He couldn't wait any longer, he couldn't count on Voldemort to keep his word, and even if he could keep his promise out of dignity, who knew how much pain Albus would have to endure?The thought of Albus possibly being tormented made Harry feel angry.

bring it on!Voldemort!No matter how you break into Hogwarts, you can't kill me and Albus!Since your first failure, the ending is doomed!

"Open!" Harry yelled at the two stone snakes, still speaking in Parseltongue.

The stone snake began to crawl in the opposite direction, forming a circle with its head and tail intertwined.Then, with a click, the stone door was twisted open, and Harry saw a wide and straight marble passage lined with tall stone pillars on both sides in dim light, and a huge statue could be vaguely seen at the end.Harry climbed in.

Here was a long room with a marble passageway in the middle, and the stone pillars on both sides were carved with coiled serpents, and the ceiling disappeared into the darkness, so it was completely invisible.The bottom of the stone pillar is soaked in water.There are shallow pools on both sides of the passage. In fact, the passage should be higher, and the water droplets dripping from the ceiling have gathered over the years to form a pool.

How many years will it take to gather into a huge pool.

So, how many years did the basilisk live?Hundreds of years? 1000 years?

Harry felt like his wand was going to snap.He moved carefully, keeping his head down as much as possible not to look elsewhere, ignoring the hollow, loud reverberation each step caused.He was ready to close his eyes at any moment, yet desperately wanted to see it all, to find out where Albus was.Halfway through the walk, his bowels were convulsed with nervousness.He saw the statue clearly.It was almost as high as the room, and it hung menacingly against the dark wall behind.

It was a statue of a male wizard, with an old face, not very good-looking, a long beard dragged to the hem of the wizard's robe, and two big feet were exposed.It was dark between his feet, and Harry took a few more steps before he saw what lay beneath - it was Albus!

Harry couldn't care less.He frantically ran over and picked up Albus, who was face down, and found that his face was as white as Draco's, and was frozen to no warmth by the cold floor.To Harry's relief, Albus was still breathing weakly.

"Wake up, Albus, I'm here to save you." Harry whispered, taking off his school robes and wrapping them around Albus, warming his cheek with the hand that wasn't holding the wand.

"He won't wake up. At least not yet," said a voice softly.

Harry put Albus down immediately, aiming his wand in the direction of the voice.He stood up and saw the puzzling situation.

On the stone pillar closest to Harry, a tall, dark-haired boy leaned against it, staring at Harry intently.His outline was indistinct, less clear than his reflection in the water, as if...he was covered in a layer of fog.

"Who are you?" Harry asked warily.

"You should be very clear." The boy walked over slowly.But Harry still couldn't see his face clearly, he just thought it looked rather handsome.

Harry frowned, then opened his mouth slightly.Harry exclaimed in surprise, "Voldemort - but it's not...he's not like you..."

"It seems that after decades, my appearance has changed." The boy stopped a dozen steps away from Harry, his voice sounded cold and unfeeling. "The power of magic can change a person. The more you accumulate, the more it affects you. But who cares about appearance? I'm still me, just in a different way."

"That sounds a bit like him. Are you Voldemort?" Harry hesitated slightly. "Are you a ghost?"

The boy sneered, "I don't understand how you'd change my life. You're so stupid!" He took a few slow steps, and Harry was aware of the slight sound of his feet on the floor with each step.This made Harry gasp.

"All of you have become ghosts, and it's not my turn!" He said contemptuously, "I am a memory, which exists in a diary, and is sealed in the diary for certain purposes."
