The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 564
The next day, in the hall of the auditorium, the students were discussing the attack on Mrs. Norris, and some even suspected that Harry Potter was the heir of the mysterious Slytherin.

However, most of the Slytherin students scoffed at such a statement. They didn't think that the heir of Slytherin would be Harry Potter.

Even Albert's analysis in the Gryffindor lounge last night began to spread in the school. Some people believed it, but more people didn't believe it, thinking that he was just talking nonsense.

On the contrary, the few copies of "Hogwarts, A School History" in the school library were borrowed in the blink of an eye, and the people who registered to borrow it had already been queued for two weeks.

Facts have proved that there is indeed a legend of the Chamber of Secrets in Hogwarts Castle. The one who attacked Mrs. Norris was most likely the monster in the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets, and the target of that monster was probably the Muggle wizard in the school. , the so-called Noble Cause of Salazar Slytherin.

In short, rumors were flying in the school, and the Muggle wizards who knew Albert became suspicious.

No way, they have all heard that Albert can prophesy, and the words that come out of that mouth are very accurate, whether good or bad.

Anyway, everyone began to consciously move around with other companions, for fear that if they were alone, they would become the target of monster attacks.

Harry, Hermione and Ron were very disturbed by this. They were there last night, and Harry heard some voices that other people couldn't hear, so Hermione approached Albert early in the morning Discussing this matter with him, in her opinion, Albert is more reliable than Harry and Ron, and he is knowledgeable, and may know something.

"Dumbledore said that Mrs. Norris was not dead, but was petrified." Hermione briefly talked about what happened after being taken to Lockhart's office last night.

"Petrification?" Albert asked: "Dumbledore can't directly undo Mrs. Norris' petrification?"

"No, Dumbledore said that we need to wait for the mandrake root to mature and make a potion to undo the petrification."

"Powerful recovery potion." Albert couldn't help curling his lips. Dumbledore can buy this powerful recovery potion from the outside world. With the principal's contacts, it is impossible not to buy it. Even Albert can prepare it for himself. A few bottles of powerful recovery potions.

Albert would not believe that Dumbledore did not expect this, or that he wanted to save some money. It is actually very doubtful that he did not use a powerful recovery agent to wake up the petrified people later.

After all, as long as a powerful recovery agent is used to wake up the petrified students, some information can be obtained more or less. Albert really can't think of a suitable reason not to do that.

However, Dumbledore never did that, but chose to wait for the Mandrake roots to mature, which must have been intentional.

Perhaps, Principal Dumbledore wanted to take this opportunity to force out the heir of Slytherin who was hiding behind the scenes, and to find the specific location of the legendary Slytherin Chamber of Secrets, so as to completely eliminate this hidden danger.

Otherwise, Albert doesn't think it's a good idea to wait for the mandrake to mature, after all, it will take at least half a year for the thing to mature.

A cat is fine, but the student holding the camera is a bit unreasonable. As long as he can wake up the person, it will not be difficult to learn from the other party that the monster in the secret room is a basilisk.

"What's the matter?" Hermione noticed that Albert was distracted, and asked aloud, "Did you find something?"

Several students around came over to listen to Albert's analysis. Although it was a bit like listening to Albert bragging, it did not hinder their gossip.

"It seems that it should be a very advanced black magic, which is why Mrs. Norris was petrified." Albert said absent-mindedly.

"Do you think the heir to the Chamber of Secrets petrified Mrs. Norris?"

"I don't think he should be the heir." Albert said his own analysis, "It is simply impossible for ordinary students to do this, and the use of advanced black magic requires strong magical power as support, otherwise it will not be possible at all. The effect of the spell, it may even fail to cast the spell directly."

"Dumbledore also said similar things." Ron appeared out of nowhere, nodded and said, "The headmaster thinks that ordinary students can't do this at all."

"So, if you exclude the work of the heir, it can only be done by the monster in the chamber of secrets. As far as I know, Medusa in Greek mythology can do this. Well, it's the Gorgon."

"As we all know, there is no creature like Medusa in the magic world." A student who didn't like Albert couldn't help but sneered.

Albert ignored it and continued, "In my knowledge, there are no magical or dark creatures that can petrify a cat. But I still tend to think that it was done by some kind of monster. Leitlin has a very close connection."

"Why wasn't the Heir of Slytherin doing it?"

Angelina, who had just come over, couldn't help but interjected and asked, she was not a Muggle wizard, so she was not very worried about being attacked, but she also wanted to hear Albert's analysis.

"Students probably don't have such abilities." Albert glanced at the restless Ginny Weasley, and continued, "Professor Snape may be able to do it, after all, he is the wizard with the deepest research on black magic in the school." , but obviously unlikely."

"why."

"Stupid, Snape was in the Great Hall at the time for dinner."

"So, those of you who didn't go to the auditorium for the Halloween dinner are suspicious."

As he said that, Albert turned his attention to Hermione again, but obviously it couldn't be you, because there should be only one heir, and the three of you were together at that time.

"If the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets really exists, why hasn't anyone discovered its existence for 1000 years?" This time it was Kenneth Toller who asked the question. This guy came to discuss with Albert whether he wanted to cooperate. Sell ​​a wave of amulets.

"The heir of Slytherin must have discovered it. There must have been more than one heir of Slytherin in the millennium, but they helped hide the entrance." Albert reminded: "Otherwise, it is impossible that the chamber of secrets has not been discovered, after all Over the millennia, the school has undergone several renovations."

"I feel that other professors combined are not as reliable as Albert."

"They just don't want to cause panic. I'm afraid they are already secretly investigating." Albert shook his head and said: "After all, the castle is not big, but it is not small. It may not be easy to find the hidden secret room, otherwise How could there be a so-called secret room legend?"

"What did you find?"

"I have vaguely grasped some clues, but I need more clues." Albert looked at Hermione and asked, "Is there any secret?"

"That's what I told you last time." Hermione said very tactfully, she didn't say that Harry heard that voice again, after all, in the wizarding world, hearing voices that others can't hear is not a good sign.

"Well, I see." Albert stood up and walked out of the castle.

"Where are you going?"

"Go to Hagrid, maybe he will know what monster can petrify Mrs. Norris. After all, he has a lot of research on that thing." Albert casually made an excuse for himself, and he had already figured out how to give Deng Bullido explained that the monster in the Chamber of Secrets was a matter of the Basilisk.
