Promotion and salary increase start at Hogwarts

In the History of Magic class, most of the students were in a deep sleep, and the ones who were awake were whispering to each other.

"What the professor said is true. I found the medal for the Special Contribution Award to the school in 1943 in the medal display room. The name on it is Tom Riddle. It's a very common name. There are a lot of wizards named Tom in the UK.

.”

Ron said to Harry, "I'm afraid it will be difficult to investigate based on this clue."

"I think we have to find the secret room first."

Harry said to Ron.

"It's difficult, Harry, no one has ever found the Chamber of Secrets, not even Dumbledore."

Ron spread his hands.

"Professor Luo Cheng said that if you want to get more information, you might as well ask more about the ghosts in Hogwarts... Ron! Follow me after class to go to the scene where the cat was attacked. I think I have some guesses.

Go there and confirm it.”

When Professor Binns announced that get out of class was over, the whole classroom suddenly became active. Those students who had been dozing just now woke up and continued to exchange the most popular topic of "secret rooms" in the school.

"Maybe you need to use vicious black magic to open that secret room."

"I heard that some mechanisms can only be opened at specific times and by special means."

"Yes, I heard that the Binsi family once had a secret chamber. If you want to open it, you have to smear the blood of most of the direct heirs on the mechanism."

Harry and Ron rushed out of the classroom and ran all the way to the top of the corridor where the attack occurred. The scene in front of them was the same as that night, but the petrified cat was no longer hanging on the torch stand.

And on the wall with the words "The Chamber of Secrets Opened", there was an empty chair leaning against it - that was Filch's chair.

Harry noticed that on the top piece of glass on the wall, there were about twenty spiders crawling around in a panic, as if they were eager to get out of a small crack in the glass. A long silver thread was like a rope.

Hanging it down, it seems that they hurriedly climbed up through this thread and escaped out of the window.

"Harry, what are you looking at? Oh - it's a bloody spider."

Ron's face turned pale when he saw the spider.

"The spiders are scurrying," Ron muttered, "are they scared too?"

"Remember that puddle on the floor? Where did it come from? Someone mopped the floor," Harry said.

"It's probably right here," Harry said. She walked a few steps past Filch's chair and pointed it out to Ron. "It's parallel to this door." He reached for the brass ball handle, but suddenly retracted his hand.

Come on, it seems like it was burned by fire.

"What's wrong?" Ron asked.

"Because this is the girls' bathroom."

A voice came from behind them, it was Luo Cheng.

"It seems you have finally thought of investigating the first scene?"

"Uh, yes..."

Harry and Ron felt a little uneasy, fearing that Luo Cheng would judge them for their pursuit of the Chamber of Secrets.

"But no matter what, you shouldn't just enter the girls' bathroom at your age."

Luo Cheng said, "You are still young, I'm afraid you won't be able to grasp it. Although this place is abandoned, there is a female ghost here that is more troublesome than most living women - Moaning Myrtle."

Then Luo Cheng ignored the big sign with the word "Out of Order", opened the door of the girls' bathroom, and walked in with Harry and Ron.

This is a very dark and depressing place. Under a large stained and cracked mirror, there is a row of stone pools with peeling surfaces. The floor is wet, and a few candles are holding their heads low.

The shelves were burning, emitting a dim light that cast an eerie light on the floor. The wooden doors of each single room had peeling paint and were covered with scratches; the hinges of one door had come off and were hanging precariously.

"Harry, go to the innermost private room and knock on the door."
