HP's Wretched

Chapter 83

As the cool night wind blows into the room, the flames of the candles placed on the table also sway left and right, Flotte lying on the table can't help but unconsciously frowned, and tightened the blanket she was wearing , and then opened his eyes in a daze.

It's really strange that she fell asleep on her stomach, and slept soundly all night...

Flotte rubbed her eyes and stood up, staring at the messy books on the table to calm herself down, urging herself to wake up a bit... She seemed to be studying Parseltongue, and then she seemed to fall asleep after reading it , and slept soundly...

It was so fragrant that I was dreaming... In the dream... I don't remember the content of the dream very clearly, I just remember that she seemed to be married to Snape in the dream, and then lived together, living... well very happy...

Flotte laughed at herself, then rubbed her face with her hands indiscriminately until she was completely awake.

Really, this person is really getting older and more hypocritical. Back then, she stood up after suffering all the crimes. She never had any beautiful thoughts. Now that she has managed to live a peaceful life, she starts to think about it. Yes, she really is free... Especially at this moment she shouldn't be so free!A while ago at Hogwarts, another child was attacked with a ghost. Although it was not life-threatening, the atmosphere in the whole school was still tense. The professors began to patrol in shifts day and night. She searched for relevant information day and night to find the secret room... But she should be ashamed that she still has the leisure to dream here at such a critical time!

But having said that, Snape should be on duty at this moment, and he still has a full class tomorrow, so he should really be told to take some time to rest, otherwise he will have to spin again, or... wait!Why did I think of him again...

This is a bit too abnormal, since she looked at the broken mirror, she is not normal, she said she can forget it, why is it always... Hey, it is not a way to force yourself to forget, then wait until the secret room is found, and then Let's face this abnormality well...

Flotte tidied up the scattered books on the desk, and then continued to open a book until dawn.

……

After ten days of searching, Flotte basically found all the recorded Parseltongues in history.Yes, Dumbledore said that he would not let them care about Harry's talent, but how could Flotte not care about this weird thing, and she is a person who likes to twist things, you won't let me Look, I'm going to start here!

But after looking around, there are only a few types, either inherited or acquired.Inheritance, Harry is absolutely impossible, and Potter's lineage can be regarded as a well-known pure blood, and there has never been a record of Parseltongue.Then learned it the day after tomorrow?Harry was still so young, and he grew up in a Muggle family, and even she took care of him for eight years, so it was impossible for him to learn this dying ability.Then there is only one possibility left, Harry is not Harry, someone else pretended to be...

That's right, it's even more of a fantasy idea, how could Harry not be Harry.

Flotte inserted the book into the bookshelf angrily, then raised her hand and pinched the bridge of her nose, urging herself not to think of any bad ideas, such as asking Harry to speak Parseltongue, maybe something could really be recruited.

"Professor Luster, can I ask you something?"

Flott turned her head when she heard the sound, and found that Hermione Granger was standing behind her, holding a thick book, looking up at her.Flott blinked, and glanced at the book in her arms. She couldn't see the title of the book, but it looked familiar: "Miss Granger, what can I do for you?"

"Professor, do you know what is the most well-rounded thing in Hogwarts?"

"What? Four well-connected? What do you mean? Is this a riddle?"

Hermione hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "It's a kind of riddle. Explain what will pass through the entire Hogwarts, and even every corner of every floor."

"Secret passages? There are indeed many secret passages in Hogwarts."

"Uh...is there any more?"

Everywhere can pass?Why is the kid asking this?Flotte had some doubts in her heart, but a second-grade child shouldn't think too much, it might just be homework.

Clearly, Flotte hasn't learned her lesson from last year.

"Let me think about it..." Flott frowned and thought for a long time before replying, "Hogwarts' sewers are very well-connected, and there are toilets on every floor."

Hermione's eyes lit up slightly when she heard the answer, but soon dimmed again. She pursed her lips, shook her head and said, "Probably not."

"Not yet... Then this question is really difficult. Why do you ask this?"

"It's nothing, it's... Hagrid's puzzle for me, and I've been looking for the answer."

Hagrid's riddle, shouldn't it be related to animals?

Hermione didn't give Flott too much time to think, for fear that the professor would see through her lies, so she asked directly, "Professor Luster, do you have any books on the history of Hogwarts architecture in the library? I thought there would be an answer there, but I haven't found it yet, and as you know, Mrs. Pince bothers me to keep asking her."

Flotte always listened to Pince talking about Hermione, but she thought this child was quite cute and smart. If she would like to take ancient runes in the future, that would be great.Flott smiled gently and said, "Professor Flitwick has taken away most of the books on architecture, but I think there are still a few left. I'll go and find them for you."

"Thank you, Professor, I'll be waiting for you there."

Flote nodded, and then walked towards the bookshelves deep in the library.

When I arrived at a specific bookshelf, there were not many books left on it.Of course, Flitwick borrowed the book on Hogwarts architecture to study the possible location of the Chamber of Secrets, but so far nothing has been found.To say that this Salazar Slytherin is worthy of being the ancestor of Slytherin, this kind of thinking is really not something that ordinary people can guess, just like the students of Slytherin House, there are always twists and turns in their hearts... etc. wait!No, Flitwick borrowed the book to study the location of the Chamber of Secrets, and Hermione borrowed the book...

The three adventurous little ones are also studying the secret room, right?Maybe, last year Hermione also asked her to borrow books, and then saw these three uneasy students at the Sorcerer's Stone level, this time... Sure enough, history is always the same.She was almost deceived by Hermione's really good student appearance that day!

Flotte now understood that if this adventurous Gryffindor became cunning, it would definitely be the scariest thing in the world.

Flott couldn't care less about picking books, she had to hurry up and ask their top student Hermione, the key protected object Harry, and of course Ron, who was also worrying, if they really had the idea of ​​breaking into the secret room , that dangerous place is not for these three explorers.

Flotte rushed to the place she and Hermione had agreed upon as quickly as possible, but there was no one waiting there except for a book lying empty on the table.

Flote didn't know why she started to feel flustered, she walked quickly to the table and carefully looked at the book - "Guji Youkai Illustrated Book".

Very good, looking for the building information of Hogwarts with the monster illustrated book, this is obviously to find out where the secret room is, there is no doubt about it.

But where will the child go before she waits?

Flotte still felt a little flustered, an unexplainable fluster, as if something was about to happen, but she couldn't tell what it was!No, she should be able to catch up with Hermione when she goes out now, she can't give the adventure team a chance, and no more accidents can happen to the children.

Flote, who made up her mind, quickly chased after her. Just as she passed the corridor and was about to reach the corner, a scene stunned Flote for an instant.

Not far away, there is a girl lying there in a strange posture... motionless...

Flotte felt that her hands and feet were cold from that moment, and she pushed herself to take a step forward, praying in her heart: the child just fell, just fell, fell...

But when she got closer, reality slapped her hard.

Hermione, who was still alive and asking questions in front of her just now, is now lying on the floor stiffly, her eyes staring at the ceiling out of focus, and there is an indescribable distortion in the movements of her hands...

Flotte quickly ran to the stiff Hermione, knelt down and began to examine the child's body...

Thank goodness, Merlin blesses, this child still has temperature and breath, other than her body being stiff, her consciousness should just be in a coma, this is petrification!Just petrified!Fortunately, it is not death!

It's better if it's not death, it's better if it's not death... Flote kept repeating this point of view in her heart, comforting herself from the guilt caused by her negligence just now.

However, just when she was slightly relieved, suddenly, there was a strange movement in her ear...

On weekdays, at this time, very few people pass by this corridor, and this sound is definitely not the sound of students walking, or in other words, this is not the sound that people should have at all!

The sound was like the sound of scales rubbing against metal, and it was accompanied by a "hissing" sound. The sound was so subtle that ordinary people should not be able to hear it. However, in this strangely quiet environment, and It was Flotte whose nerves were in a tense state, she could hear it—it was the sound of a snake spit out its core!The basilisk is near her!

Even Flotte, who once went to the battlefield to kill people, now only feels weak in her body. After all, what she is facing now is a huge basilisk with a lifespan of nearly a thousand years!But fortunately, her sanity is still there, she told herself, don't panic now, definitely don't panic, once panic, she and Hermione will become the basilisk's dinner!

Flotte restrained her body strength not to tremble, and quietly raised her right hand, gently covering the petrified Hermione's eyes. It was luck that the child didn't meet the basilisk's eyes just now. She couldn't let this unlucky thing happen to Hermione again.

Flott stared at Hermione's petrified body, kept her eyes from looking around, and then prayed silently in her heart, that the basilisk was not interested in her, and that the magic on her body was so weak that it could be ignored The breath allows the Basilisk to tell the difference between her and a full Squib.

As time passed, cold sweat gradually broke out on Flote's forehead, she didn't dare to move, just quietly, quietly waiting for the terrifying monster to leave here.

It has been a long time, and the basilisk has not made any sound again after a long time. Flotte's tense muscles instantly softened, but fortunately, she was able to control herself and did not collapse to the ground.The basilisk should be gone, it should be safe, she thought.

Flott moved her body, ready to lift Hermione and walk towards the school hospital, but before her left hand could touch Hermione, the small mirror beside Hermione attracted Flott's attention.

Mirror, why is there a mirror here?Did Hermione petrify because of the reflection in the mirror?Then from which angle she looked at it just now, this may be able to catch the trace of the basilisk!

Flote, who realized something, wanted to lean up to take a look at this strange mirror, but as soon as she leaned forward, a ball of light from nowhere exploded in front of her eyes, and the dazzling light at that moment was like a sharp A sword pierced Flotte's eyes.Accompanied by Flott's exclamation, a sense of dizziness that she had never experienced before exploded in Flott's mind. She closed her eyes tightly with her body's instinct, but she couldn't control her body to Hermione because of the dizziness. Kneel down in the direction.

Her head was swollen and dizzy, and her eyes hurt too much. It can be said that she didn't relax for a while, until a calling sounded in her ear.

"Flotte, open your eyes and let me see."

It was Snape's voice, and the familiar scent of medicine. For a moment, her tense body relaxed instantly. Flotte hurriedly opened her eyes, but she saw nothing but a black shadow. Didn't see: "Severus? I don't think I can see very well."

"This is the blinding effect of being irradiated by the strong light, you should be lucky, do you know what happened just now?" Snape's voice sounded a little annoyed, "I just came from behind, and I saw that basilisk Appearing behind your back!"

behind!Thinking about the scene just now, Flote couldn't help but thump.correct!She was thinking about looking at the mirror next to her just now, if Snape hadn't appeared in time, there should be two people lying there by now.

"I have no other choice but to use up all of it, and blind both of you first, anyone can be blinded."

What a clever way, Flotte sighed inwardly.Then he suddenly thought of something, and asked anxiously, "What about the basilisk?"

"Run off that corner."

"It's a pity I didn't catch it."

"Catch?" Snape raised his voice an octave, as if he was extremely unsure that Flott would say that. "You two almost died, and I don't think it's safe to catch you." The Basilisk was a sensible decision."

"Oh, that's right!" Speaking of this, Flott almost forgot that there was another child, "Look at Miss Granger, I hope I just covered her eyes!"

Flott seemed to have heard Snape's helpless sigh, and of course felt the movement of him squatting down: "It's still petrified, and it's not life-threatening."

"It's fine if there's no danger." Flott also heaved a sigh of relief, and then stretched out her hand to grab Snape. I don't know where to grab it, but it was enough anyway. "Thank you, Severus." Thank you You always show up so timely.

Snape let out a cold snort of disdain from his nasal cavity: "I really don't expect much from your trouble-making physique. Can you see now?"

"It's still a little blurry."

"I hope Poppy (Madame Pomfrey) has better eye drops."

After Snape grabbed Flott's arm and pulled her up, he handed his cloak to Flott, and said, "Hold it."

Seeing Flotte take it and nod, Snape bent down and picked Hermione up in relief.

If there are lucky students, they may pass by and see their terrifying Potions Professor holding a petrified student, and Professor Luster behind him is "obediently" following his robe...

……

"It's all my fault. If I had realized what the child was looking for earlier, and held her to teach her a lesson in the library, or walked with her, maybe Miss Granger would have missed that time." Fu, who had regained her eyesight, Lott confessed while sitting beside Hermione's hospital bed.

"It's not your fault, Flotte." Professor McGonagall comforted, "This is something none of us could have expected, and none of us wanted to happen."

"Besides, you were almost injured. So don't be sad." The kind Professor Sprout also comforted Flott.

"Headmaster, what should we do now?" Snape was more concerned about how the situation should develop.

Dumbledore's expression also changed from the usual kindness and kindness, and it can even be said to be full of dignity: "Minerva, please go and inform the students that today's Quidditch match is cancelled. Then... and by the way, Gran Let Mr. Potter and Mr. Weasley know about Miss Jay, I think they will be very worried if something happens to their friend."

"Okay, Albus, I'll go now." Professor McGonagall replied.

Hearing that Dumbledore wanted to inform Harry about Hermione's accident, Flotte wanted to open his mouth to reveal that the three students were investigating the secret room, but before Flott could speak, Dumbledore made another sentence Let Flote swallow the words back.

"I think I should explain it to the trustees, but I think if we can't catch the real culprit, I'm afraid the school will be temporarily closed."

After saying this, the atmosphere in the room became even more sad and indignant, because everyone knew that this was the fact before everyone...

The author has something to say:

It is slightly adapted according to the direction of the original book (I usually base most of the original book on the direction of the movie, sometimes combined with the original novel.)
