I Have a Big Problem with My Hogwarts

If Hogwarts Castle is used as a direction sign, Black Lake is located at the main entrance of the castle, and from the perspective of the whole school, it should belong to the back garden of the campus.

There is also a large lawn between the Black Lake and the castle. The flying lessons in the first grade are held here. Usually, this is also the main place for the little wizards in the castle to go out.

And this small open space by the Black Lake is where Lynn, Cedric, and Ian often meet at school.

The most comfortable thing here is that in summer, the cold lake water will naturally adjust the surrounding temperature, so that people lying on the lawn chatting have the comfort of enjoying the breeze in spring.

"It's a shame you haven't been at Hogwarts lately, the new Professor Lockhart's class is very interesting, I've been here for four years anyway, and this year's Defence Against the Dark Arts class is the best I've ever had. class." Cedric showed off the new Defence Against the Dark Arts professor at the school to Lynn.

The hair in front of Lynn's forehead was gently blown by the breeze. In fact, it is already early autumn. Although only a little movement of the body will produce annoying sweat, but lying quietly on the lawn will only make people like it more. September days.

"Is it really that good? I heard Xiaobu complain to me that the professor left a lot of homework." Lynn squinted, expressing doubts on the surface, but actually wanted to hear Cedric continue Say good things about him.

"I don't think there is anything wrong with leaving a lot of homework. In the past, professors left less homework. After I finished writing, I even felt a sense of 'this is it'. Now, the most homework that Professor Lockhart has left is written. At eight o'clock in the evening, there is still a little time to sleep before going to bed."

It seems that there are still few homework assignments, and there is still time to be in a daze before going to bed.

"I'm different. You guys still enjoy being in a daze before going to bed. I'm busy like a spinning top every day. I keep spinning and never stop." Lynn sighed.

It was rare for him to have time today to brag and chat with Cedric and the others, but even so, during the rare break in this way, he was still thinking about the basilisk's disappearance.

This thing is like a time bomb. If you don't find the bomb and cut the lead short, the ghost knows where and when it will blow up.

"If you don't have enough time, I can give you an idea." Ian said.

Lynn didn't pay much attention to the idea he said: "Is it for me to make reasonable use of the fragmented time? To be honest, I don't have the fragmented time at all, or I am busy even in the fragmented time."

"No, that's not what I meant," Ian explained to him.

"I listened to some high-achieving students in the Ravenclaw common room talking about how they sometimes took many courses after entering third year, but these courses would conflict in terms of time, so they Will apply to the dean of my college, Professor Flitwick, for a magic device called a time-turner. It is said that this thing can make them repeat the time that has passed before. I think with your grades, if you apply to Professor Snape, he will A time converter should be approved for you."

After he finished speaking, Lynn was stunned.

Then he suddenly got up from the grass, his face showed a surprised expression, and he lowered his head and said to Ian seriously.

"Thank you Ian. Your ideas for me are very useful. When I get back from finishing things, I will cook and invite you to dinner in person."

After he finished speaking, he hurriedly left the lawn. Cedric and Ian looked at the back of him leaving. The two looked at each other and shrugged. They didn't understand what would happen to Lynn if they just said something casually. kind of help.

Lynn returned to the castle and went directly to the headmaster's office without stopping for a moment.

He did forget that there was a bug-level thing called the Time Converter, and it was no wonder that Lynn didn't remember it. This thing was completely destroyed in the battle of the Hall of Prediction after it appeared once in the original book except for the third part. , so if there is no Ian reminder, maybe he will not remember this thing until next year when Hermione applies to Professor McGonagall for a time converter.

If he can go back in time and go back to the time when the secret room has not been opened and the basilisk has not disappeared, he can catch the person who took the basilisk away before him!

"Has Professor Dumbledore come back?" The stone monster in front of the headmaster's room was still as ugly, but you can't pray for how beautiful a stone can be.

Hearing Lynn's question, the stone monster made way for him, and at the same time replied in a sullen voice: "It's not long since he came back, and he hasn't even had time to eat his favorite cockroach pile."

Lynn pushed open the door and walked into the headmaster's room, where Dumbledore was putting a "cockroach" in his mouth when he came in.

"You came to me within ten seconds of sitting in my chair." He looked at Lynn who pushed the door and said with a smile, enjoying the burst of candy in his mouth, "I heard the Sorting Hat tell me Reported that you have been in my office many times in the past two days, grabbing the tip of its hat and trying to get something out of its stomach?"

"Yes Professor, I read a legend in a book in the library that Gryffindor once had a sword left in the world, and this hat was also left by Gryffindor, I just wanted to try that Is the sword hidden in his hat?" Lynn sat opposite Dumbledore and gave the reasons he had prepared.

"You guessed it right, Gryffindor's sword is indeed hidden in the Sorting Hat." Dumbledore did not hide it, "As long as they have the quality of courage, many people can take the sword from that hat. Pull it out, but only Slytherin students can't."

"Because they don't like each other?"

"They used to be best friends, but unfortunately they went their separate ways due to differences in teaching philosophies."

Lynn didn't come here to talk about the history of Hogwarts with Dumbledore, and after a short chat, he went straight to the point.

"I heard that outstanding students in the third grade can apply to the school for something called a time shifter?"

Dumbledore blinked: "Yes, but to be precise, this thing is to apply to the Ministry of Magic. Excellent students want to use more time to study, of course we have to find a way for them."

"Professor, should I meet the requirements of being an excellent student? And I was a student and a professor at Hogwarts, so I really didn't have enough time."

Dumbledore didn't agree directly. He tapped the table top of the desk with his fingers and looked at Lynn deeply.

"Don't hide it from me, Lynn, I know you don't want a time changer just because you don't have enough time. You don't have to think about doing things by yourself. I know that everything you do is a For this school, but don't forget, I'm still the headmaster of Hogwarts."

Lynn fell silent.

Every time he wants to interfere in the original work, he really likes to hide his plans and do it alone.

This is not because he doesn't trust others, but because of the instinct of a traveler.

He always subconsciously wants to hide things that will happen in the future, because he knows that there is no reason for them. If someone seriously investigates his deeds at Hogwarts, he will find out that he always knows inexplicably. Some secret, unknown to others, predicts events that will happen but haven't happened yet.

Even prophets who were born with the ability to predict the future could not make such accurate predictions.

After all, prophecy is only a kind of magic, and it cannot be omniscient and omnipotent at all.

But about the secret room and the basilisk, Lynn felt that he might not need to hide it from Dumbledore. He had a secret excuse to know the secret room. And what Dumbledore said was right at all. He was still the headmaster of Hogwarts. With his help, it would definitely be more convenient than Lynn looking for clues alone.

After thinking about it clearly, Lynn looked at Dumbledore and took out Tom's diary from his pocket with a solemn expression.

"Professor, you should have heard the legend of Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets."

"One of the original Big Four, Salazar Slytherin, and the other three had a conflict of teaching ideas. He believed that Hogwarts should only admit pure-blood students. But he was opposed by the other three founders. In the end, he angrily left the school he participated in establishing, and left a secret room in the castle, threatening that one day his descendants would open the secret room, release the terrifying monsters inside, and carry out Hogwarts. A holy purge to kill all wizards who are not pure blood."

Dumbledore opened his mouth to tell the legend of the Chamber of Secrets again, and said in a joking tone: "When I was still in school at Hogwarts, the school had already circulated this legend, but our professor of the history of magic Bing Professor Si has never believed that this legend is true, and after thousands of years, the Chamber of Secrets has never been opened, so no one thinks it is true."

"But it's true, Professor," Lynn said affirmatively. "It's not only true, it's been opened before."

Lynn tapped the diary on the table, caught Dumbledore's gaze, and opened it at the same time.

"It was your misguided student, Tom Riddle, who opened the Chamber of Secrets."

The diary also seemed to recognize the old man with white beard and hair in front of him. It was his guide to the magic world, the former professor of Transfiguration, Albus Dumbledore.

A large cloud of thick black ink suddenly appeared on the yellowed paper in the diary, and then disappeared immediately.

Obviously, Tom in the diary just now is scared!

"This is Tom's diary when he was in fifth grade at Hogwarts. He used an evil black magic to seal a part of his soul in it. This soul has his memories before fifth grade. During the summer vacation, Malfoy's dad secretly put this diary in the textbook of Ginny Weasley, the little sister of the Weasleys, but because Ginny and I exchanged textbooks later, the journal fell into my hands.

Before I came to Hogwarts, I always put him and little Tom together. Later, little Tom reported to me that this diary was beguiling him to open the door of the secret room, release the basilisk inside, and kill me , and a cleaning of Hogwarts.

Through what this diary said, I found the secret room and wanted to get rid of the basilisk in it in advance, but the surprise was that the secret room was still there, but the basilisk disappeared. According to the diary Tom, if there is no Someone gave an order, the basilisk could not leave the secret room for no reason, someone must have opened the secret room before me and took away the basilisk inside! "

Lynn told Dumbledore what he had discovered, except that he knew the source of the Chamber of Secrets and the Basilisk and made a little concealment, and everything else was the truth.

After listening to Lynn's story, Dumbledore pondered for a long time, and then he spoke slowly.

"I remember an incident when I was still a Transfiguration professor at Hogwarts, when a girl died in the school, causing a huge panic throughout Hogwarts, when the headmaster of Hogwarts, Dipe Professor Te had no clue about this, and no one knew how the girl died. For this reason, the Ministry of Magic even decided to seal Hogwarts. In the end, Tom exposed Hagrid, saying that it was his pet, a giant Spider did all of this, which eventually resulted in Hagrid being expelled from the school, and Tom was awarded the school's commendation to end the incident.

In fact, I was already suspicious of him at that time. He always liked to hang out in the castle at night, but I have no evidence, and I don't know how he did it, so I had to let it go. But now it seems that the student death that happened at that time was when Tom Riddle released the basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets and then blamed it all on Hagrid? "

When Dumbledore said these words, he did not look at Lynn, but kept staring at the diary.

As he spoke, some dark ink spots appeared on the old pages of the diary from time to time.

Tom's mood swings a lot now.

Dumbledore stared at the diary, his blue pupils showed remorse that would never appear at all, he shook his head and sighed: "It's really vicious magic, in order to live forever, to avoid death, to split one's own soul, and to sacrifice The life of an innocent person is the one that has taken the irreversible dark road step by step since you discovered the Horcrux, Tom."

Hearing Dumbledore's words, Tom in the diary suddenly became more excited.

Black ink appeared on the blank paper, quickly forming scribbled letters.

"What do you know! From the day you took me out of the orphanage you've been full of suspicion and resistance to me! You've used magic to intimidate me in order to keep me obedient! At Hogwarts, no matter what I do, you Don't trust me! What made me take the dark path? Why do you say I'm wrong! My path has never been dark! What I'm after is the future that the wizarding world really needs! Not yours! Dumbledore! Yours!"

Suddenly I have to be busy with some things today. I will update today's first. I will make up for it tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.
