The Wizard of Hogwarts is Unscientific.

Chapter 75 Is this the spirit of Ravenclaw?

"Overnight?" Andy exclaimed in surprise, his face filled with disbelief.

But upon closer reflection, this is the magical world, so whatever happens doesn't seem to be worth making a fuss about.

Like the Muggle world, the wizarding world is filled with countless legends and stories. Hogwarts Castle, an ancient castle with a history spanning thousands of years, holds countless secrets.

But to find them, you first need to distinguish which stories are true and which are false.

There is indeed a library in the Ravenclaw common room, which was left by Rowena Ravenclaw.

However, the Ravenclaw library doesn't have many books about magic; instead, it mainly contains books about historical sites, legends, and other things meant for leisure.

After all, Rowena Ravenclaw is one of the four founders of Hogwarts, and she couldn't possibly show too much favoritism towards Ravenclaw.

Therefore, Andy never had much interest in those books.

But it's quite different when someone actually reads through the entire library's collection in one night.

Andy took the book Hermione brought and began to read it carefully.

The book doesn't go into much detail, just a few lines that roughly recount the story of how the lucky man read through the entire collection of books in one night.

More often than not, it's speculation about Ravenclaw himself.

For example:

What exactly did Rowena Ravenclaw leave behind?

What kind of magic caused this?

Does the library at Ravenclaw College hold any secrets?

Is Rowena Ravenclaw trying to find a successor in this way?

The book makes it clear that Salazar Slytherin left a secret chamber in Hogwarts, intending to use the monsters in the chamber to purge those in the castle who were not worthy of learning magic.

The secret room was opened fifty years ago.

As a result, a student died at Hogwarts, and the new headmaster, Armando Dippet, resigned.

Therefore, it can be inferred that Rowena Ravenclaw's decision to leave behind the library was clearly not without purpose.

Moreover, the author of this book speculates that the four founders of Hogwarts left something in the castle, waiting for future generations to find it.

"Andy, do you think this is true?"

Hermione said excitedly, "I've read about this in two books, including The Chamber of Secrets left by Slytherin, and it's mentioned in many other books as well."

"How would I know?" Andy said, flipping through the last few pages of the book before closing it with a bored expression.

I can't stand watching.

"But we can go to the library tonight."

Andy suggested, "The library is right inside the lounge, so this doesn't count as a nighttime stroll, does it?"

Hermione nodded.

A hint of excitement flashed in the little witch's eyes; her adventurous spirit seemed to have awakened.

……

into the night.

The Ravenclaw lounge was completely empty.

Andy, wearing his pajamas, walked out of the boys' dormitory and sat on the sofa for a while. Then he saw the little witch, fully armed, sneakily push open the door to the girls' dormitory.

The little witch poked her head out and, seeing that Andy was the only one in the lounge, immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"...Are you going to steal?"

Andy chuckled, "Looking at you, anyone would know you've been up to no good."

Hermione glanced at Andy.

Andy was wearing pajamas and slippers, sitting casually on the sofa, his wand in the pocket of his pajamas, only half of it sticking out.

Look at yourself again…

He was dressed in a wizard's robe, wore a wizard's hat, and had a scarf wrapped around his face, with only his nose and eyes showing.

At first glance, it really does look like something a thief would do!

"Hmph! I call this thorough preparation."

Hermione retorted defiantly, "If we encounter any danger later, you won't be able to outrun me in your slippers."

Andy: "..."

Is this the Ravenclaw culture?

Let's go!

Andy got up, pushed open the library door, and went in first.

"Reveal your secret!"

Andy drew his wand and pointed it around, but found nothing.

Hermione seemed to still be holding a grudge. The little witch said with a disdainful look, "This is magic left behind by Lady Ravenclaw. How could a first-year wizard like you possibly break it?"

"Whether we can crack it or not, we have to try before we're satisfied," Andy said with a smile, putting away his wand.

"snort!"

Hermione proudly raised her chin. "Ravenclaw symbolizes knowledge and wisdom. Rowena Ravenclaw once said a famous saying: 'The greatest treasure of mankind is wisdom.'"

"If you ask me, the key to unlocking the secrets here is—reading the books!"

Hermione had a very confident expression on her face.

Is extraordinary wisdom humanity's greatest treasure?

Andy looked thoughtful. "Perhaps even Ms. Ravenclaw herself doesn't agree with that statement."

"What do you mean?" Hermione asked, looking puzzled.

"What makes you say that?!"

A voice suddenly rang out, and Andy quickly drew his wand. "Who?"

A silvery-white ghost passed through the wall. She was very tall and beautiful, but she looked a bit arrogant.

"Ms. Grey?"

Andy raised an eyebrow, put the wand back in his pajama pocket, and said, "Sorry to have bothered you."

"I'm asking you a question! What makes you say that Ms. Ravenclaw doesn't agree with that statement?" Ms. Grey persisted.

Andy rubbed his nose. "I've heard some stories about Mrs. Ravenclaw and her daughter. I think she would be willing to trade her wisdom for her daughter."

"I'm willing..."

Ms. Gray seemed deeply shocked. She was initially bewildered, remaining stunned for a long time before glaring at Andy and shrieking, "What do you know?!"

After saying that, Ms. Gray disappeared through the wall without looking back.

"Um...did I say something wrong?" Andy looked at Hermione with a confused expression.

Isn't the core theme of Harry Potter love and friendship?

If Dumbledore heard me say that, he would definitely think I was a once-in-a-century model student.

Why is it that when it comes to Ms. Gray, all I get in return is a shrill scream?

"Maybe...she idolizes Ms. Ravenclaw?" Hermione guessed.

"I also admire Ms. Ravenclaw very much!"

Andy retorted, "I also said that Ms. Ravenclaw was the most capable of the four founders."

So he wasn't killed, therefore he's the strongest?

Hermione looked at Andy and wondered if she should just kill him; it was late at night and no one would know.

"By the way, where was I?"

Andy thought for a moment, "Oh, I remember now... If you could find secrets by reading books, the secrets left by Mrs. Ravenclaw would have been deciphered long ago."

"I suspect that what Ms. Ravenclaw longed for most in her final moments was to see her daughter one last time."
