Hogwarts: I'm Cousin Harry

Chapter 148 146. Every month has a Valentine's Day
"Professors, I don't know if I've heard the old rumor: 'Slytherin once left Hogwarts in a secret room where his noblest things and all knowledge were kept, waiting for his heirs come and open it, and purge all who are not qualified'."

Dudley spoke his 'guess' slowly.

In contrast, Lockhart
"It's a dark wizard who brought Medusa" He hesitated for a long time and didn't make up his story.

Why did the dark wizard bring Medusa to Hogwarts?Is there a birthday party? !Or just to petrify a cat?But what does this have to do with the Chamber of Secrets?
Oh, maybe that Medusa's name is Chamber of Secrets.

"Professor Dumbledore, as far as I know. The Chamber of Secrets was opened 50 years ago. So a little witch paid the price with her life."

"The Ministry of Magic caught the supposed 'murderer' and fired him, but... I don't think that's the case."

Dudley dropped another bombshell, looking at Dumbledore as he spoke, and Dumbledore was looking at him.

This time Lockhart didn't speak anymore, because he was already thinking about whether to find an excuse to resign from the professorship.

Already died once 50 years ago! ! !
Who knows who will be next.

He still has a great youth and countless Galleons to earn, so there is no need to stay here any longer.

But let him leave now, it is a bit reluctant, he already has a premonition that his next book "Hogwarts and Me" will be a big hit, it is a basilisk, a magical creature that has not appeared in more than 400 years, it will definitely be able to Defeat that damn Dragonlance Chronicle.

"I think this matter should be referred to the disciplinary team"

Dudley was interrupted by Dumbledore before he could finish his sentence.

"Dudley, I think this matter should be handed over to the professor, you are too young." Dumbledore said, maybe he will calculate something, maybe he is not a competent professor, maybe he is not a good brother
But he's still a good guy at heart.
Now that he knew what it was, it was much easier to deal with. The basilisk was afraid of roosters crowing. He remembered that Hagrid had a lot of cocks.

"Professor Dumbledore. Remember what you promised me?"

Dudley shook his head slightly, and didn't intend to argue, but just said lightly: "This is the second year, it seems that Hogwarts is not safe again."

Dumbledore: .
The fact that Mrs. Norris was petrified did not cause much sensation in Hogwarts. As Lockhart said, it was just a cat, and it was more of a talking point for young wizards after dinner. .

It left a lot of doubts in the hearts of the little wizards.

Who is the one who opened the chamber of secrets.

There are different opinions on this question, but many people speculate that Dudley did it. Dudley did not participate in the wizard card contest that day, although it was standing in the audience, it is not impossible.As for Harry, because he was playing cards all the time, he had no time at all, so he was not suspected unless he could clone himself in front of Dumbledore.

This statement is most widely spread in Gryffindor, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw, except for Slytherin.
They didn't think Mr. Dursley was that stupid, and there was no need for such a pointless thing.

They prefer to believe that Crabbe or Goyle is the heir to the Chamber of Secrets.

The professors formed a patrol team and patrolled the castle from time to time, but naturally found nothing. They didn't find any trace of the basilisk.

In fact, it is not completely nothing, at least during this period, the frequency of student night tours has dropped to the lowest level in the history of Hogwarts since the establishment of the school.

Dudley once tried to let the domesticated Cornish elf go from the girls' bathroom on the second floor to the secret room to try to find traces of the basilisk.

It's not Dudley's style to let such a dangerous thing wander around Hogwarts castle, and if anyone happens to, it may not be so lucky that they just get petrified.

Unfortunately, that guy seems to have disappeared, completely missing.

When Dudley wanted to investigate further, Dumbledore stopped him.

"You should try to trust the abilities of the professors, try to trust us."

Dumbledore said so.

"Okay." Dudley agreed very decisively.

Then he made a special wizard card for each companion in the disciplinary group, and told them to keep it close to him.

This wizard card may not be able to resist the deadly eyes of the basilisk, but it can play the role of mirror reflection, reducing the lethal effect to petrification.

After announcing the opening of the secret room, that passage disappeared, as if it had never happened before.

No more exceptions occur.

Days go by like this.

After the little wizards received their initial eager attention, as time went by, this matter gradually faded from the little wizards' sight.

People's attention has a time limit, and people will forget when the heat passes.

The quiet time lasted until February [-]th.

This day is called Valentine's Day.

Of course, if you want, there is a Valentine’s Day every month, such as White Valentine’s Day, Black Valentine’s Day, Rose Valentine’s Day and even Green Valentine’s Day.

When the little wizards stepped into the auditorium that day, they thought they had gone to the wrong room. The four walls were covered with big and dazzling pink flowers, and the whole room was decorated in pink.There are many heart-shaped confetti constantly falling from the light blue ceiling in the sky, and the air is filled with a strong and disgusting aroma.

"What happened? Was Hogwarts attacked by a pink demon?"

Ron pointed at everything pink and tender around him, speechless in surprise.

"I think someone must have lost his nerve." Dudley pointed to Lockhart who was wearing a bright pink robe in the professor's chair. Let others see their expressions.

The color pink is not everyone can control.

Obviously, Lockhart was not included.

"Everyone, Happy Valentine's Day!" Lockhart shouted happily, showing off: "So far, 59 people have sent me greeting cards, and I would like to express my gratitude to them! Yes, I I decided to arrange this little surprise for everyone.”

"He said 59?" Hermione mentioned, and then silently wrote down the matter, which is an important clue.

"Why do I have a bad feeling."

Looking at the vigorous Lockhart on the stage, Harry said suddenly.

As long as Lockhart arranges and plans, nothing good will happen.

Ron echoed, "No, Harry. I have the same hunch."

"I have this hunch too." Neville said the third.

then malfoy
"I hope my hunch doesn't come true."

The next moment their premonition came true.
