Hogwarts Card Drawer
Chapter 70 The First Victim
The Halloween party is over, and the students are walking on the way to the meeting with their round bellies. The sound of hundreds of feet ascending the stairs, and the loud chatter and laughter of people after their tea and dinner. Then, the students rushed into the aisle from both ends.
Suddenly the team in front seemed to stop moving, and the buzzing and chattering suddenly disappeared. Kronos still didn't know what happened before, and he was still humming the song that the Weird Sisters sang at the banquet. The Slytherin students surrounding Chronos pushed away the crowd in front of them. Finally, Chronos came to the forefront. Saw that scene in the original book.
The chamber of secrets was opened.
Those who are enemies of the heir, be vigilant.
Between the two windows, on the wall a foot above the ground, some writing was scribbled, shining in the light of the burning torches.
Harry, Ron, and Hermione stood alone in the middle of the corridor. The students were extremely quiet, and all looked at the body collapsed on the ground in front of them.
"Oh! No! That's Owen Caldwell." A Hufflepuff girl recognized the student lying on the ground and said his name.
Chronos looked at Tong Owen, who was already stiff, and then looked up at the trio of Harry standing there in a daze. Kronos didn't know what to say.
"Those who are enemies of the heir, be vigilant! The next one is you, Mudblood!" Draco stood up at this moment, Chronos pulled Draco past him, and gave him a hard look. He doesn't think it's a face-saving thing to be in the limelight at this time.
And after Harry heard this sentence, he seemed to have noticed Chronos. He frantically pushed away the crowd and ran to the opposite of Kronos.
"I heard it, I heard it, that voice." Harry said excitedly.
"What did you hear?" Kronos subconsciously asked this idiot-like question.
"Strange sound! That strange sound that no one but me can hear." Harry said hastily.
"Hey! Harry, are you scared to death? There is no strange sound! Hahaha!" Draco laughed with the other Slytherins beside him.
Kronos didn't know what to say, he could only look at Harry with complicated eyes.
"What happened? What happened?"
There was no doubt that Malfoy's cry had caught Filch's attention. Filch pushed his way through the crowd with his shoulder. After seeing the students lying on the ground, he backed away in fright, his face full of horror.
"It's you?" Filch's eyes widened, "How dare you murder your classmate?"
Chronos had to admire Filch's daring to put such a big hat on Harry. It's illegal even in the wizarding world to attack a Muggle at will, let alone a wizard.
"Okay, Mr. Filch. Don't make a fuss, go and call the professors," Chronos said.
"Yes, Professor Slughorn." Filch pouted his butt respectfully in front of Chronos, and then went to find the professors.
After a while, Dumbledore arrived at the scene of the incident followed by a group of teachers. Chronos still couldn't find Gilderoy Lockhart among this group of people.
"Could it be that the diary is in Lockhart's hands?" Kronos had this thought in his mind, and Lockhart was indeed at Lihen Bookstore that day. It is very likely that Voldemort's diary was picked up by him, but why did he attack Tong Owen?
While Chronos was thinking, Dumbledore had already stepped forward to check on Owen's situation. After confirming that he was petrified, he turned into a stretcher with a wave of his hand. Then some senior classmates sent him to Madam Pomfrey.
As soon as they heard the word "petrochemical", many students around fixed their eyes on Kronos.
Who among the students present didn't know that Chronos used a spell to petrify Professor Lockhart in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.
Even Draco looked at Kronos with a strange expression, looking at his eyes. As soon as Chronos was out of breath, a critical blow hit Draco on the back of the head.
"Are you an idiot? I was in the auditorium with you all the time during the banquet, don't you know?" Kronos said angrily, he was very displeased with Draco's eyes.
At this time Dumbledore also opened his mouth to explain to Chronos.
"Mr. Caldwell didn't get hit by a simple body-binding spell. He was hit by all the petrification but couldn't move. All senses were still functioning. And Mr. Caldwell was more like a petrified vegetable, unconscious and unable to hear. Can't see it either."
I have to say that Dumbledore is a professional, and he directly explained the doubts of the students clearly.
Draco on the side bowed his head in embarrassment, and said, "I'm sorry, Chronos. I shouldn't have doubted you."
At this time Lockhart came in a hurry, and he came forward, looking very enthusiastic.
"Come with me, Harry," he said to Harry. "You too, Mr. Slughorn, Mr. Weasley, and Miss Hermione."
"My office is nearest, Headmaster. - it's upstairs - please use as you please -" said Lockhart.
The silent crowd quickly dispersed and let them go up. Lockhart walked closely behind Dumbledore excitedly and self-righteously, and McGonagall and Professor Snape also hurriedly followed behind.
Looking at Lockhart in front of him, Kronos always felt that his excitement was a little too much, rather it was a cover up due to excessive nervousness.
As they walked into Lockhart's dark office, Chronos saw some of the curly-haired Lockharts scrambling to avoid the crowd. The real Lockhart lit a candle on the table, then stepped back and stood. Dumbledore sat in the chair that Lockhart usually sat in. Harry, Ron and Hermione were sitting heavily on the chairs beside the candlestick, looking at Dumbledore, exchanging nervous looks from time to time.
But Kronos was slowly wandering in Lockhart's office, he wanted to see if he could find the shadow of Voldemort's diary. Although this is unlikely.
"What are you doing here, Mr. Filch?" Dumbledore asked. Only then did everyone see Filch standing at the door of the office.
"Uh...I...I want to light a lamp for you." Filch raised the lamp on his right hand.
"Okay, Mr. Filch. You go back first, I will call you if necessary."
"Take it with you when you leave!" Lockhart said to Filch, who was about to leave, in an orderly tone.
Chronos saw Filch give him a kick.
