Chapter 197 Myrtle

I have to say, the only feeling I get from playing a dungeon with Dumbledore is...

Don't do anything.

The second door lock was unlocked by itself, and the follow-up was even simpler. The huge sculpture of Slytherin and a basilisk were locked by the water after killing the mirror - the eyes were locked by the fragments of the mirror, and the whole snake was trapped by dozens of water-like ropes. It could only be viewed by people.

"Only one basilisk..."

Dumbledore asked the new Transfiguration doll to check it and shook his head in disappointment. "Perhaps there are other things left, but they were probably moved away during the renovation hundreds of years ago, or last time... Anyway, there are no more."

"So the harvest of this adventure is... a basilisk, a fairly fresh snake slough, two barely usable snake sloughs, and a secret room? These are quite meager resources..."

Andrew is not belittling - if it weren't for the gimmick of the Chamber of Secrets, this thing wouldn't even be worthy of Dumbledore's attack.

Professor Snape, who originally looked somewhat happy, now looked unhappy - after all, this was the place where Slytherin stayed, and no matter how it was distributed, there had to be a share for Slytherin, but in the current situation, a snake skin was the limit...

"A thousand-year-old basilisk..."

Percy was still somewhat amazed, "It's an unimaginable existence."

"It's not hard to imagine. This imagination is not even as good as you going out and saying that you are the heir of Slytherin, so you were able to discover the Chamber of Secrets and hand it over to the school."

Andrew joked in a low voice to Percy who was lagging behind, "Then you can go to the Slytherin common room and point your finger at those people and curse their bloodline."

"I'm not crazy, I would do such a stupid thing."

Percy rolled his eyes and muttered, "My family has been Gryffindors for generations! Besides, it's not like the Chamber of Secrets has never been opened before, so there's no way someone could impersonate us."

"Have you opened it?"

Andrew was stunned. Is that so? I can't remember...

"Yes, there were also victims, but almost no one mentioned this matter. I only heard about it when I was a child."

Hmm… the victim, I have an impression… Andrew finally remembered. Yes, the victim was Myrtle…

Andrew sighed, and the feeling that he had originally had as if he had just completed a dungeon disappeared.

It’s really…

Voldemort should have stayed in Azkaban when he was in Hogwarts.

"Professor," he was silent for a moment and quickly walked over to Professor McGonagall, "how should we deal with the basilisk?"

"After informing Warren, he will be executed. The materials after the execution will be handed over to Professor Snape for disposal. After all, it is the property of Slytherin House."

"Warren?"

"Yes, it's the little girl above. Although she looks like a little girl, she actually entered school even earlier than me." Professor McGonagall shook her head, "But the tragedy happened before I entered school."

This is how it looks like…

To execute one of the murderers in front of the victim...no act could be fairer than that.

Andrew no longer had any doubts, and stepped back, falling into silence like the others.

-

"Kill, a snake?"

Myrtle looked at Andrew?
"What does the snake have to do with me?"

Myrtle looked at Andrew and smiled foolishly.

"You have no memory of your own death?"

Andrew looked up and looked at Myrtle in surprise.

"Of course I was asked, but then no one cared anymore. The people from the Ministry of Magic started to expel me and told me to stay away from Olive Hornby."

??? Is the Ministry of Magic so incompetent?

“Has no one investigated this?”

"have it?"

Myrtle thought about it and gave it some thought.

"I was missing for a long time. Many professors went to Professor Dippet to report me for truancy. Only then did the principal order people to look for me. Then they found that I was dead... in this innermost cubicle."

"Just like that, it's over?"

"Well, no? Professor Dippet was very angry. Yes, he was very angry. He ordered a thorough investigation. That was basically the only time someone asked me how I died... But I forgot what I said. Well, you don't know how scared Olive Hornby was at that time. I bet she will never forget it even after she dies..."

...

The ghost's obsession.

Are you more concerned about Olive Hornby's feelings than his death?

"No one was dealt with?"

"Yes? I said I was stared at by a pair of strange eyes, and then I died, and then... well, it seemed to be Hagrid? Yes, it should be him, he was expelled, but Dumbledore protected him... He was just expelled... Really..."

Why again? It seems that Hagrid was falsely accused.

But, you don't care about Hagrid at all? Or do you feel sad about Dumbledore's protection?
No, it should be the ghost's obsession...

Olive Hornbe... cares so much?

"That Olive Hornby, do you still remember her?"

"Of course, I kept pestering her when she was in school, all the time, and then, um, then, when she graduated? Later, when it was her brother's wedding, I went to make a scene again, and finally, finally... um, then I was expelled from the Ministry of Magic, and I couldn't go find her. I had to stay in Hogwarts."

Until graduation, no, even until my brother gets married.

Andrew felt his emotions torn apart - he finally understood why the analysis of ghost morphology in those introductory books on transfiguration could be included in the restricted book section.

A dead person discusses his death with you, and even death itself is not what he cares about. He is more concerned about someone or something. It really makes people feel that their entire cognition of the world is collapsing.

He had no idea how to approach Myrtle about the execution of the snake—he didn't even know if Myrtle would care.

However, it must be said that action is not only to comfort the dead, but also to comfort the living.

But, something seems to be wrong.

Andrew thought about it, but couldn't figure out what was wrong.

"Let's go and watch the snake being killed. That snake monster is the one who killed you."

That was all he could tell Myrtle, and hope he could figure it out on his way there and back.

"The murderer? Hagrid?"

"There is someone else, just one of the murderers."

"Well... Ravenclaw students... OK, OK, even though there are many scumbags there, I'm still willing to believe you."

She finally walked down steadily, and Andrew was able to see her appearance clearly - everything else was fine, but the badge on her body was very obvious.

Andrew was very familiar with it, a unique logo, he also had one.

The symbol of Ravenclaw.

"Come on, you lead the way. If you must see a snake killed, then go ahead."
