Something was shining on the wall in front of them.

Harry's trio moved closer, squinting their eyes to try to identify the traces, but Jon and Seshari didn't need to get closer. From this position, they could see the writing there very clearly.

"The chamber of secrets has been opened, those who are enemies of the successor, be vigilant."

Seshali's light and girlish voice seemed a bit eerie in the darkness.

And on the wall in front of them, under the scribbled writing, there seemed to be something hanging.

"It seems to be... the cat of Filch, the Hogwarts mayor. You saw his cat the day you first came, and the one who is slightly taller is Filch."

Seshali nodded, of course she remembered the very old-fashioned Squib, but now his cat has become a real board.

"It should be petrified by the basilisk, but if the basilisk looks directly at it, it should die. It is just a cat. How did it see the basilisk?"

Obviously, no one can answer Jon's question, and no one knows how Mrs. Norris encountered the basilisk, but at least it is not dead, which is a good thing.

"I seriously doubt that it will be difficult to end here. How do you think they will deal with it?"

"How else can I deal with it? Of course not."

Jon glanced sideways at the direction of the stairs, where a ghostly figure flashed past.

It seems that Peeves still didn't ignore his work, and he still arranged for the ghost that should follow Harry, and now this place should also be recorded.

Then he doesn't need to worry about it.

He turned his head back again. It was obvious that the three people in the team really wanted to leave now, but it was too late.

The noise came like thunder from under the stairs, and on both sides of the corridor where they were, there were hundreds of feet climbing up the stairs, talking and laughing happily with the students.

Then the students came here in crowds.

They quickly discovered what was going on here, especially when they saw the cat hanging upside down. Silence spread like dominoes among the chattering crowd.

"What happened here?"

Filch's figure appeared not far away. He was obviously attracted by the voices of the students, and when he squeezed through the crowd, he saw Mrs. Norris hanging on the wall.

This surprised him very much.

The Hogwarts warden burst into a shriek, directing his rage at the person closest to the cat.

harry potter.

"you!"

He screamed, "You! You killed my cat! I'll kill you! I'll—"

"Filch!"

Seeing that the scene was about to get out of control, Dumbledore's voice came from not far away.

As a rescuer, he came very timely and brought many teachers with him.

He glanced in the direction where Jon and Seshali were hiding, and then turned his gaze to the center of the situation in front of him.

"It seems that we are no longer needed here, Celie."

Jon clearly saw the intention he wanted to express in Dumbledore's eyes, so he ventilated with Seshali and planned to leave.

Seshali naturally knew what Dumbledore's eyes meant. She nodded towards Jon, and the two walked out against the wall.

Behind them, Lockhart's voice came clearly.

"My office is closest to here, the Headmaster—upstairs—you can—"

Jon didn't hear what he said afterwards, and he and Seshali left here and walked towards the stargazing tower.

Now at this time, Professor Trelawney should start her prophecy.

"Jon, is it appropriate for us to go at this time?"

Seshali glanced at the direction of the tower from afar, where it was still wrapped in darkness.

"I guess they should have discovered by now that the cat was petrified, and Lockhart himself knew the existence of the basilisk. Dumbledore has been back for so long, so he should know it too?"

"Who knows?"

Seshali shrugged, turning the jewel she held between her fingers.

"However, I still haven't noticed any different fluctuations coming from the Star Observation Tower. Perhaps... it should be that the prophecy has not started yet. Will we disturb them in the past now?"

Jon has to admit that Seshari's concerns are not unfounded, and quite possible.

"If that's the case, why don't we wait until the results come out and see the results directly," the bracelet on his wrist suddenly trembled, "Let's go, Lockhart has something to ask us."

As a result, the two of them just walked around the outside of the castle without going to the stargazing tower, and finally returned to Lockhart's office.

It's a little dark inside the office.

Lockhart's photos are hung on the wall, and the poses of this group of Lockhart are different, and some even wear hair curlers on their heads.

When Jon and Seshali came in, they didn't hide, they were still playing with their posture openly.

And the real Lockhart was sitting behind his desk.

"Your face looks very bad, did something happen?"

"Oh, it's nothing serious, the acting failed, Snape didn't allow me to prepare the mandrake resurrection potion, to be honest, I'm a little sad.

And you didn't tell me that the basilisk would show up in such a short time that I wasn't even ready. "

"I told you when you came here that nothing is prepared at Hogwarts, and everything is played on the spot."

Jon didn't want to answer Lockhart's words. He felt that it was meaningless to say this. Instead of arguing about it here, it's better to go to Snape now and see how the potion is prepared.

"I thought the relationship between you and Professor Snape has been fine-tuned, what's the matter, aren't you two good partners?"

Lockhart looked aggrieved.

"Even if he is the best partner, he can't stand to tear things down like this. You don't know how he satirized me in front of Harry."

"No matter how much Snape satirizes you, you should bear it."

Jon's eyes gradually became sharper, as if they were reaching Lockhart's heart.

"When you chose to come here, I have already told you that here you have to learn to face all possible events, and you shouldn't care about your own image."

His voice was cold and unforgiving, but very helpful in waking up.

"Isn't your ultimate purpose of coming to Hogwarts to destroy your past image? Based on this, you can pave the way for your new life, so if I were you, I wouldn't complain about basilisks or Instead, go to Snape to prepare potions with him.

He'll be a great partner. "
