The Big Boss Behind Hogwarts

Chapter 19 The Slytherin Dungeon

Dumbledore turned his head to speak to a teacher with greasy black hair, a hook nose, and sallow skin.

Moriarty knew he was Severus Snape, and although he couldn't hear what they were talking about, he had something to do with Slytherin House.

In just one dinner time, Moriarty found out that Slytherin has been stronger than ever in recent years, and winning the Academy Cup for three consecutive years is really more than just talk.

Excellent students like William and Leon who are almost comparable to adult wizards are almost absent in other colleges, that is, Gryffindor has a Bill Weasley who can compare.

However, there are a few people in the third and fourth grades that should not be underestimated.

Moriarty looked at Gemma, the senior who was talking to Lilith, Charlie Weasley next to Percy, and Tonks on the Hufflepuff table, just to interrupt Dumbledore's speech the girl.

Moriarty knew that Dumbledore had an Order of the Phoenix, and both Charlie and Tonks were members of the Order after graduation.

So Moriarty believes that Leon must first find out what Bill is doing. It is impossible for Dumbledore to entrust a Slytherin to do something that Bill has not done.

In fact, it wasn't Leon who caught Moriarty's attention, but Bill.

I thought that Hogwarts in 1988 was calm, but now it seems that there is an undercurrent.

A plan gradually took shape, and Moriarty remained calm on the surface. When he ate the last piece of pudding, all the food on the table disappeared.

Dumbledore stood up and said some precautions, and led everyone to sing the school song.

Facts have proved that not everyone can sing the school song as unscrupulously as Fred Weasley and George Weasley, and the students can't let go of their voices, humming and singing.

Only Dumbledore's voice was the loudest, and suddenly he heard another loud voice, Dumbledore looked towards the Slytherin table, Moriarty was standing upright, singing the school song in an old tune , sounds exciting.

When the first little wizard started singing along with Moriarty, he shuddered, but soon his eyes lit up and his face had a sacrosanct expression.

The students all sang along, the pores of their bodies stretched out, and they joined the chorus like warriors about to go to the battlefield.

Dumbledore's applause continued for a long time after the school song was sung.

"Music, it's more charming than anything we've done here!" Dumbledore seemed impatient to sing it again, "Mr. Moriarty, what kind of melody do you sing in?"

"The battle song created by wizards in the Middle Ages to deal with the Goblin War has no name, sir." Seeing Dumbledore's disappointed expression, Moriarty smiled faintly: "But I can write down the score and send it to you. .”

"That would be great," Dumbledore nodded. "It's bedtime now. Let's go back to the dormitory."

There was a loud bang in the auditorium, and the students all stood up and began to follow their prefects back to the dormitory.

Gryffindor's first-year lion cub made noisy noises, while Slytherin's first-year snake kept quiet and graceful, preparing to follow Leon to the Slytherin common room.

"Prefect William used to take us back," Gemma said to Moriarty before leaving, "Prefect Leon volunteered to take on this responsibility this year. I want to show off."

"Hmph," Lilith snorted disdainfully from behind Moriarty, "For nearly half a century, the Minchum family has been suppressed by other purebloods.

Because Minister Harold Minchem was a tough minister who tried unsuccessfully to contain the Dark Lord's rise, the Minchem family suffered the Dark Lord's revenge.

Now Leon has become the only hope for their family, but I don't like him. What achievements can a guy who only flaunts his prestige in front of girls expect from him? Maybe he will challenge the giants in order to prove himself? Oh, don't tease me. "

Hearing Leon's background, Moriarty felt that Leon was in better control.

They walked for a while, and the floating ladder under their feet moved, and the little snakes hurried to another section of the floating ladder.

Leon reminded: "Be careful with these magic stairs. They not only float in mid-air, but also move and rotate. If you can't remember all the stairs accurately, you will be sent to an unknown place."

Moriarty remembered his staff, and with the mentality of giving it a try, he tapped the end of the floating ladder lightly with the end of the staff. After a loud "click", all the floating ladders stopped moving.

Jericho tentatively jumped onto the floating ladder that had been moved before, and then jumped back.

"Cool Mr. Moriarty, how did you do it?"

"I think it's because the ladder can't resist the Slytherin staff." Moriarty said thoughtfully. So, the staff can also reveal other secrets in Hogwarts?

The little snakes surrounded Moriarty, all wanting to have a closer look at the staff. The stairs of Hogwarts have been spinning and moving every day for centuries, and now Moriarty stopped them!

Lilith said regretfully: "I should have brought back the sword of Gryffindor—maybe I could have brought it back if I persisted."

Leon felt that he was being left out, and his face changed again and again, and finally he said with a fake smile: "Mr. Moriarty is doing a good job, but unfortunately I am not a professor, otherwise I will definitely add ten points to the college. Now we can have they gone?"

The fixed floating ladder saved a lot of time for the little snakes. After passing the last section of the floating ladder, Moriarty did not forget to resume the moving of the floating ladder.

The little snakes soon came to a room similar to a basement, with a thick stone wall at the end of the room.

"There is a stone door hidden in the stone wall, and behind the stone door is our common room."

A strange smile appeared on Leon's face, "Of course this is the unified name among the four colleges, but we prefer to call it the Slytherin Dungeon internally.

It is located at the bottom of the lake, we can often see octopuses in the lake through the window, and if you are lucky, you may also see mermaids. "

Leon took a few steps towards the stone wall and said without looking back, "Glory!"

The stone wall clicked, the stone door turned, and the whole view of the common room appeared in front of the little snakes.

The walls are made of black marble, the turquoise ceiling and chandeliers emit sparkling light, the ceiling is carved with crystals, and the floor is covered with snow-white carpets.

The sofas and armchairs in the room are arranged around a large fireplace, as well as the exquisite mantelpiece, luxurious furniture, sporadic murals and candlesticks, which attract the attention of the little snakes.

"Never forget passwords, lose passwords, give them away! Because no Slytherin would be friends with a fool who does any of these stupid things."

Leon's sternness pulled the freshmen's thoughts back, he glanced at the freshmen, and said without a trace of emotion.

"Maybe you were excited because of the sorting ceremony, but Slytherin doesn't need excitement. What it needs is calmness, focus, and ambition."

The little snakes listened to Leon's words solemnly, and even Lilith didn't make a sound, she was a Slytherin after all.

Leon watched the reactions of the little snakes with satisfaction, but said mercilessly: "From the moment you enter Slytherin, you should abandon your childhood fantasies, you are no longer children.

A lot of people say that a Slytherin will stop at nothing to get his way, and I think there's nothing wrong with that, and nothing to be ashamed of.

We are not the group of reckless lions. Only when we have a clear purpose can we find a shortcut to success. Only when we find the goal can we kill with one blow like a poisonous snake.

There are too many famous wizards in history who came from Slytherin houses, such as Merlin - I think you should have heard of it - if you haven't, keep it in your mind!

Although students from other houses rarely mention this, I can assure you that Merlin was educated at Slytherin House. "

Jericho raised his hand: "I'm sorry, Prefect Leon, but according to people's research, Merlin was active earlier than the Hogwarts Big Four were born. How could Merlin enter Hogwarts to go to school?"

"Very well, you're Jericho Blanche from America, right? You've learned to ask questions!" Leon looked like a poisonous snake, "Why don't you ask Moriarty Jr. about this?" What about sir? Perhaps the heir to Slytherin Castle has first-hand information."

Moriarty saw the sinister smile flashing across Leon's face, and didn't bother with him, but unhurriedly picked up the staff and waved it towards the stone wall, a line of dark green ancient text appeared on the wall .

"What is this?" Lilith asked, "What text? And... what does it mean?"

"Ancient runes, meaning time." Moriarty snapped his fingers, and with a "click", the dark green text changed into English.

Moriarty told Jericho: "There's no doubt that Merlin was in Slytherin, but there's no doubt about the time mismatch you're talking about.

The mismatch in time once attracted the attention of Salazar's ancestor. He investigated Merlin's origin, but nothing happened.

I found the last record about Merlin from his diary. There are only these two words on it, time. "

"Does it mean that Merlin traveled through time?" Jericho looked like he had seen an American sci-fi blockbuster.

Moriarty patted him on the shoulder: "I don't think so, but time magic is indeed involved."

"Time magic?" Lilith asked curiously.

Seeing that Moriarty became the protagonist again, Leon felt that the authority he established no longer existed, so he interrupted the conversation of the little snakes: "Why don't you go to sleep?"

Within ten minutes, the little snakes found their own dormitory. There were four people in one room, which made Jericho not very satisfied, but when he found out that his dormmate was Moriarty, he didn't feel sleepy at all.

Not only Jericho, but also a few little snakes did not fall asleep, and everyone surrounded Moriarty and sat down on the sofa in the common room.

"Actually, I came to Hogwarts because of Mr. Moriarty." Jericho touched his hair and smiled a little embarrassedly: "Dad heard that the descendants of Slytherin will come to Hogwarts this year. So I tried my best to let me come.”

"Since this is the case, I promise you will not be disappointed." Moriarty accepted Jericho's friendship.

Lilith came over: "If Leon knew that you belonged to the Blanche family, he would definitely regret treating you with a grotesque attitude just now."

"Oh, that's nothing to say," Jericho said, not at all proud. "The Blanche wizards are only a little more talented at riding broomsticks than other wizards. I can't wait to take flying lessons." gone."

Lilith's eyes flashed: "Mr. Moriarty is also a flying genius, right?"

"I have only tried flying on a broom once, and it was very exciting." Moriarty admitted, but when it comes to flying, the ancestor of Salazar is an expert, and the second spell he left behind is the improved version of the flying spell .

Several people chatted for a while, then said good night to each other, and went back to the dormitory to sleep.
