Immediately after Tom Riddle's front foot left, Professor McGonagall hurried over after hearing the noise.
She looked at the door of the classroom that had been smashed by the basilisk with a face full of shock. She moved her eyes along the two torn knight armors by the door and landed on the heavily damaged tables and chairs.
There seems to be something in it?
Professor McGonagall is holding a magic wand in his hand, ready to fight at any time.
When she stepped on the door and walked into the classroom, her pupils dilated slightly, looking at the roosters running around in the classroom, she muttered in disbelief, "What is going on here!"
"An attack?"
Professor McGonagall looked at the group of roosters in the classroom again, and said to himself: "No matter how you look at it, it looks weird."
She raised her wand and chanted softly, and three silver cats came out from the tip of the wand. The three patron saints ran forward quickly and disappeared at the end of the corridor in the blink of an eye.
If Albert were here, he would be happy to discuss the advanced use of the patron saint with Professor McGonagall.
A few minutes later, Professor Snape arrived first, his face was slightly pale, and he hurriedly scanned the messy classroom, then regained his gaze and said to Professor McGonagall, "Have you noticed the heir of Slytherin, Another line of words was left."
"what have you found?"
Professor McGonagall heard what Snape said, with a bad feeling in his heart.
"Just below the last paragraph, it says: Her bones will stay in the secret room forever." Snape said hoarsely.
Professor McGonagall pressed his lips tightly, trying to make himself look as strong as possible.
"There was another attack. When I came, I saw that the fat monk was petrified." Professor Sprout came in a hurry, she couldn't help being stunned when she saw a messy classroom, looked up at the two colleagues and asked: "What is going on here, and what happened to those roosters."
"A student was taken away by the monster and taken directly into the secret room." Snape explained.
"who is it."
Professor Flitwick asked sharply when he heard the bad news as soon as he arrived.
Snape sensed that the other professors were staring at him, so he had to say it again, "Below the last paragraph, it says: Her bones will stay in the secret room forever."
"Which student is it?" Professor Sprout covered his mouth, not letting himself cry.
"I don't know." Professor Snape shook his head.
"What's going on here?" Professor Flitwick asked while looking at the classroom.
"I heard a lot of noise in the office just now, it was already like this when I rushed over." Professor McGonagall is still confused now.
"The roosters here are all real, not magical!" Professor Flitwick screamed. He just let the rooster disappear in the classroom, only to find that the spell had failed.
"Hagrid's rooster?"
"It should not be."
"This whole thing is weird." Snape looked at the group of roosters in the classroom, and thought there must be a special reason for the group of roosters here.
"In any case, we must first figure out who was taken by the monster, and then... tomorrow we will send all the students who stayed home." Professor McGonagall immediately made follow-up arrangements, "Severus, Philly Us, please go to the library and send all the students who stay there back to their common rooms."
"It's better to inform Lockhart. He vowed to tell me the other day that he knew the entrance to the secret room and what the monsters in the secret room were. If any students were taken away by the monster, I think we need his help now." Pu did not forget to remind Professor McGonagall of this.
"Well Severus, please tell Lockhart, tell him what's happening here, and let Lockhart let go and deal with the monster." Professor McGonagall said, "Pomona, you go Inform the other professors that I will make the ghosts move and make sure that no students stay outside the dormitory. We must first find out if any students were actually taken away by the monster."
While the professors at Hogwarts were busy working on the attack, Albert, who was one of the chief culprits of the whole incident, just came out of the responsive house, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
Just a few minutes ago, Albert witnessed the ink dots marked with Ginny Weasley completely disappearing in the abandoned girls' bathroom on the second floor of the castle.
After Tom Riddle was forced to take Ginny Weasley into the Chamber of Secrets, most of Albert's previous preparations were completed.
Kill the basilisk, destroy the diary, save Ginny Weasley?
No, it was the task of Harry Potter, the savior, and had nothing to do with Albert Anderson.
Albert prepared for more than half a year, nothing more than to complete a large number of secret chamber-related tasks accumulated in the task panel while ensuring his own life safety.
Finding out the real culprit behind the attack is more for your own safety. There is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days.
As for cleaning Hagrid's grievances and restoring his reputation, it was just a hand in hand.
After all, everyone is a good friend, and if you can help by the way, just by the way.
Afterwards, you can get a lot of invisible benefits.
For example, the right to speak, no one will despise Albert because of his underage. If he wants to flicker...cough cough, he will be better able to persuade others in the future to use his abilities as a magic stick...a prophet.
However, if you want to complete the panel task and get the benefits, you must first find out the real culprit and put the cruel facts on the surface.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlbert never expects to persuade any professor to believe his words.
It is necessary for Tom Riddle to jump out and prove that he is the real culprit of the attack.
Therefore, Albert spent a lot of time and energy to gradually "guide" Tom Riddle in this thrilling attack and expose himself.
Of course, after spending so much energy, in addition to completing the previously accumulated tasks, the task panel has added two more reward-rich tasks.
They are "The Basilisk Must Die", which requires the killing of the basilisk, and the "Tom's Fury" that stirs Tom's emotions. It is worth mentioning that "Tom's Fury" has been completed.
Albert was rewarded once again to freely choose a skill from Tom Riddle, which was simply delightful.
The rewards of "Tom's Fury" are more abundant than most mission rewards. Voldemort is a treasure boy, and he has a lot of good things on him. The spelling technique he got from the woolen last time has benefited Albert a lot. He is looking forward to it. This time, it’s better to have some proficient skills.
As for Tom Riddle, who became the last loser, the most fundamental reason was underestimation and misjudgment, otherwise Albert would not be able to achieve his goals easily.
Especially when the basilisk made noise in the classroom, and after Albert slipped away from under his nose, Tom lost all his pants, and he lost without knowing it.
When Tom Riddle recovered from his anger, he would find that he had no better choice.
As a party to the attack, he did not kill or petrify Albert, which means it is no longer safe to stay in the castle.
After all, he could be identified at any time, even if there is no evidence.
What the victim said is the best evidence.
What's more, Albert really has no evidence?
Of course he has, and he has a lot of evidence.
Therefore, for Tom, taking Ginny into the secret room and gaining enough time for himself is already his last choice.
He needs time for Ginny's vitality to be injected into the diary, so that he can "resurrect" completely from the diary.
Tom's original arrangements were completely disrupted by this attack.
What made Tom even worse was that all this was the conspiracy of the Muggle wizard named Albert Anderson, and he let the other party swagger out of his nose, which was an unprecedented shame for Voldemort.
If Tom Riddle knew that he had achieved Albert's most desired result, I wonder if he would run out of the secret room and fight Albert desperately with anger.
From the very beginning, Albert did not intend to capture Slytherin’s heir. As long as the professors knew the cruel fact that "Ginny was taken by a monster into the secret room", they had to accept that Albert would bring them next. Go to the "good news" instead of unwilling to believe Albert's words or not taking his words seriously.
This can be regarded as a kind of prejudice among wizards. Young wizards and wizards will only be respected when they reach adulthood.
Instead of thinking that they are... mischievous, or talking nonsense.
Albert knows this too well.
Those old friends who are willing to communicate with him on an equal footing and invite him to attend academic gatherings, are there anyone who was not obliged to ignore Albert’s age after being beaten by the knowledge on the panel, and to identify with Albert? Te has stood on the same level as them.
After leaving the responsive room, Albert prepared to go back to the common room. He didn't even plan to go to Professor McGonagall now and tell him what he knew.
Before it is determined that a student is missing, any rhetoric will only attract unnecessary suspicion.
To use the words in the movies of the previous life: Let the bullets fly for a while.
Albert is very calm, he is not the one who is anxious anyway.
Having said that, the wave of hatred he gave Lohatra was really stable. Before Tom Riddle entered the secret room, he went to the Defense Against the Dark Arts office to ask Lockhart for trouble.
What struck Albert the most was that after Tom Riddle left the Office of Defense Against the Dark Arts, the ink dot representing Lockhart on the Live Spot map did not disappear directly.
Tom didn't pull out his wand and rewarded Lockhart with the life of Avada.
Although I don't know what Tom Riddle did in the ten seconds he entered Lockhart's office, Albert knew that Tom would never let Lockhart go easily.
Ugh!
The curse of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor was so terrible, I hope the Lockharts are okay.
Albert didn't have the burden of pitting Lockhart on himself, anyway, Lockhart did not die, no matter how miserable, he would not lose all his memories like in the original book and become a fool who can't take care of himself.
"Why are you hanging out alone!" When the fat lady saw Albert walking slowly, she straightened her face and said, "You should know that it's dangerous to be alone now."
"Egg wraps eggs."
Albert didn't intend to continue listening to the fat lady's nagging, and immediately spoke the order.
"Oh, okay, go in, don't run around alone!" The portrait of the fat lady swung forward, revealing the hole in the wall.
Gryffindor’s common room was empty, with only a few people talking and laughing.
Albert walked to the place where the kettle was placed, took out his wand and tapped it, and a burst of steam came out of the spout.
Harry, who was playing wizard chess with Ron, cast a suspicious look at Albert.
"What's the matter?" Ron followed Harry's gaze, his eyes full of confusion.
"Why did he come back alone?" Harry frowned.
"Fred once told me secretly that as long as it is not discovered, it is not a violation of school rules." Ron was disapproving of this, he knew that Albert did not take those rules seriously.
"Where are Fred and George?" Harry still felt something was wrong and asked.
"Still in the library, they will be back soon." Albert went upstairs to take a cup and prepared to make a cup of milk tea for himself. He has been busy since just now and has not had time to drink.
Before Harry could speak again, the entrance to the common room was opened again, and Professor Flitwick sent back all the Gryffindor students who had stayed in the library.
As soon as everyone entered the common room, they began to discuss who was taken by the monster.
"You are fine, we thought you were taken away by the monster."
Fred, George and Lee Jordan, who had just entered the common room, saw Albert sitting in an armchair drinking milk tea, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and walked quickly to Albert's side and gave him a big hug.
no way.
They were told that something happened as soon as they let Albert leave.
The three of them were naturally worried about Albert.
"What did the Slytherin monster kidnapp me for?" Albert glanced at the knocked cup and sighed, before he had time to take a second sip.
"Someone was kidnapped by the Slytherin monster?" Harry asked warily.
"Yes, just now, Professor Flitwick said that it seems that some students have been taken away." Lee Jordan quickly told Harry and the other students who were in the common room what he knew.
"Everyone is here to gather, please go call all the girls in the dormitory, I need to count the number of people." Percy began to perform the prefect responsibilities to determine whether the remaining students are here.
Ten minutes later, Percy's face became gloomy, and he found that his sister was missing.
"Did any of you see Ginny?" Percy asked her brother immediately.
Seeing all three of them shaking their heads, the expression on Percy's face became more gloomy. He asked the two girls he knew to find someone in Ginny's room, but found nothing.
Ginny is missing.
She is most likely the student abducted by the monster.
At the thought of this, Percy's hands holding the parchment were shaking.
Fred and George looked at Albert anxiously. As soon as they were about to speak, the door of the common room was opened again, and Professor McGonagall hurried in.
"Professor, my sister is missing." Percy's voice was hoarse, as if something was blocking his throat.
"Hogwarts is over here." Professor McGonagall looked around the students in the common room and said in a hoarse voice, "The Hogwarts Express will take you home early tomorrow morning, and stay in the public until then. lounge."
"Professor, I want to send a letter to my family." Percy's mind was in confusion, and he didn't even know how to face his family.
"Be careful." Professor McGonagall agreed.
After Professor McGonagall turned and left, Albert noticed that Fred and George had been staring at him.
"Where is the entrance to the secret room?"
Fredela asked Albert eagerly after returning to the dormitory.
"You know, tell us, please." George said loudly, "Ginny is our sister, we can't let her have an accident."
"The entrance to the secret room is in the girls' bathroom on the second floor of the castle." Albert looked at the urgent twins, and explained in a low voice, "The entrance to the secret room needs a snake cavity to open."
"Snakeman?"
"Snakeman is a symbol of Slytherin."
Albert glanced at Harry and Ron who were eavesdropping outside the door, and comforted him, "Don't worry, Ginny should be alive, she is fine for the time being. Only Dumbledore can save Ginny now."
"But Dumbledore is not in school now."
"He will be back. He will be back in the evening at the latest. It's useless for you to be anxious now." Albert drew out his wand and waved it lightly, putting Fred and George down directly holding Harry to leave.
"what are you doing?"
All of them looked at Albert in shock.
"I can understand their feelings, but impulse can't solve any problems." Albert's tone was extremely calm, "I can't just watch them go to death."
"Well, I think you know what you are doing." Lee Jordan glanced at Albert and used magic to float Fred and George and move them to his bed.
"Can I open the secret room?" Harry fixed his eyes on Albert, as if trying to determine the authenticity of this sentence, "You must know what's going on, right!"
"Yes, I'll go to Professor McGonagall now to make it clear that you guys will stay here and wait." Albert said solemnly, "When Professor Dumbledore returns to school, you will definitely be asked to help open the entrance to the room. "
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Why don't you save Ginny now?" Ron couldn't help asking.
It is related to his sister's life safety, and he doesn't want to wait for a moment.
"To enter the secret room now is to die. Any professor who enters may die in the secret room. Only the principal can kill the basilisk and the heir of Slytherin." Albert softly relieved, "Don't worry, Ginny temporarily Nothing will happen."
"Ginny is not your sister, so you are not in a hurry." Ron almost yelled at these words.
"Sorry, but I think you might need to calm down." Albert waved his wand to put Ron down. "I know Ron is sad, but impulse can't solve the problem. Now it's better to let them sleep for a while and wait until they wake up. Everything has been resolved since I came."
"How should I open the secret room?" Harry quickly helped Ron, who had passed out, to prevent him from falling directly to the ground.
"Snake's mark, facing the snake-related mark in the girl's bathroom, saying "open" in a snake-like voice will probably open the secret room." Albert reached out and patted Harry on the shoulder. Don’t act without authorization and wait for my good news, okay?"
"Okay!" Harry knew he had no other choice, he could only trust Albert now.
Albert knew that Harry would not wait for the result here obediently, but he didn't care about the other party's unauthorized actions. Under the reminder of the blessing agent (intuition), letting Fred, George and Ron down was to leave Harry alone. Opportunity to face Tom Riddle.
As for whether the savior will die in the secret room, that is not an issue that Albert should care about.
When Albert found Professor McGonagall, the vice-principal had just come out of the principal's office. She just asked the portraits of the principals in the principal's office to inform the school board of what happened in the school.
"Professor." Albert called Professor McGonagall.
"Mr. Anderson, what are you doing here?" Professor McGonagall stared at Albert with a stern look.
"I know where the entrance to the secret room is, what the monster in the secret room is, who is the heir of Slytherin, and what happened in the classroom on the third floor." Albert breathed out like a gun. Finish talking.

"What did you say!" Professor McGonagall stared at Albert dumbfounded, unable to believe his ears.
Seeing the wonderful expression on Professor McGonagall's face, Albert was happy, knowing that the other party would be willing to patiently listen to what he said.
"Slytherin's heir, um, it should be Ginny. She was probably controlled by something. She attacked me not long ago, but failed." Albert said lightly, "So, you should have seen three The classroom in the building was created when he let the basilisk attack me."
"Are you really attacked?" Professor McGonagall stammered.
"Don't look at me with that kind of skepticism. I made those roosters because the basilisk is afraid of the rooster's cry."
"Basilisk," Professor McGonagall repeated nervously.
"The monster in the secret room is the basilisk."
"You knew it from the beginning." Professor McGonagall asked incredulously.
"Well, I have been investigating this matter for a while, and I know most of the things." Albert said calmly.
"Why don't you tell us?"
"Now that this kind of thing happens, you don't want to believe me, let alone before it happened, even if I tell you, you probably think..." Albert didn't finish, but he meant It's already obvious.
Albert's words directly left Professor McGonagall speechless.
"I think Ginny should be alive, and now we should rescue her from the secret room first." Albert reminded.
"Yes, where is the entrance to the secret room?" Professor McGonagall suddenly woke up and asked quickly.
"The entrance to the secret room is in the abandoned bathroom on the second floor. However, you need to open the secret room. Slytherin is one of the signs of the heir to Slytherin. Don’t look at me like that. Can't control the basilisk."
"The secret room is in the abandoned girls' bathroom on the second floor?" Professor McGonagall repeated in disbelief.
"Yes, but it's better to let Professor Dumbledore handle this matter. To be honest, I don't recommend other professors to break into the secret room rashly. They may die directly in the secret room. The basilisk is very dangerous, especially its Eyes, once they meet their eyes, they will die.” Albert looked at Professor McGonagall and reminded softly, “Of course, I don’t recommend that you take my roosters into the secret room. The heir to Slytherin has already After a loss once, this kind of good thing can't happen again, so you'd better not take any chances, because the heir of Slytherin is also very dangerous, if you die, it will be very uneconomical."
"Slytherin's heir?" Professor McGonagall asked suspiciously. "Isn't it Ginny Weasley?"
"If I'm right, it should be the one who killed Professor Quirrell last year." Albert said softly.
Professor McGonagall couldn't help but shiver, and asked curiously: "How did you escape the attack?"
"It's very simple." Albert took out the time converter from his pocket, looked at Professor McGonagall's shocked gaze, and smiled triumphantly. "He let the basilisk chase me in two corridors, and finally I had to go back in time. Get rid of the basilisk chase."
"Why didn't you ask for help?"
Professor McGonagall asked his last question. UU Reading www.uukanshu.cOM
"If you encounter a basilisk without defense, even Professor Dumbledore will be killed by the eyes of the basilisk immediately." Albert reminded, "It's not that I don't trust the ability of the professors, but I They cannot be allowed to take risks."
Professor McGonagall couldn't help but shiver.
It is not difficult to imagine what the result would be if it really happened.
Thanks to Albert for all this, otherwise the whole school really doesn't know what it will become.
"Come with me, Mr. Anderson, I think Professor Dumbledore will be back to school soon, and then you will tell him what you know."
Professor McGonagall's tone became very gentle. She knew that Albert might be hiding other things, but these were not important anymore.
Now, solving the problem first is the most important thing.
