The first intimate contact between the two little wizards ended quickly with Hermione taking the initiative to retreat.

What followed was intense embarrassment.

Neither of them was embarrassed to talk anymore, they looked around and pretended that nothing happened.

Fortunately, Harry relieved the eerie atmosphere in time. He concentrated on looking at the paper in his hand, and unconsciously read the words on it.

"Of the many fearsome beasts that live in our lands, none is more deadly than the Basilisk."

"Its lifespan can reach hundreds of years. Anyone who stares into the eyes of this giant snake will die immediately. The spider will run away when it sees it."

After reading this sentence, Harry immediately looked up at Hermione: "Could it be that the real murderer is actually a basilisk?"

"So I can hear it talk because it's a snake!"

The little witch nodded proudly, confirming his guess.

Ron understood it at this time, but he still couldn't figure it out: "But if you look at it, you will die, so why didn't Hermione and the others who were attacked die?"

"Mirror." The little witch explained: "I didn't look at it, but saw it through the mirror."

Harry, who learned to infer other things from one instance, added in time: "No one has really looked at it, at least not directly."

"Colin saw the basilisk through a camera."

"Justin... Justin must have seen it through Nearly Headless Nick."

"Nick and the basilisk looked at each other, but he's a ghost and he can't die again."

"And Hermione through the mirror."

Although Ron thought it was reasonable, he couldn't help asking, "What about Mrs. Norris? That cat doesn't have a camera or a mirror."

At this moment, Hermione hurriedly replied, "It's water."

"Do you remember? There was a lot of water on the ground that night, and what Mrs. Norris saw was just the reflection of the basilisk."

At this point, as the mystery was gradually solved, the three little wizards were a little excited.

Harry even checked the page of paper in his hand over and over again, and said excitedly: "Spiders run away when they see it, that's what Aragog said at the time!"

"But how does the basilisk move around? Such a big and disgusting giant snake will definitely be bumped into by people."

The little wizard who couldn't figure out where the problem was, couldn't help scratching his head.

And the clever little witch already had the answer: "The pipe, it uses the pipe system of Hogwarts."

The two little wizards suddenly realized what they heard, and Harry seemed to think of something: "Aragok said before that the girl died in the bathroom 50 years ago."

"What if she never left after she died?"

Hermione and Ron got it right, and said in unison, "Weeping Myrtle!"

Now, the three of them seem to only need to find Myrtle and ask her what happened back then, and they should be able to find the basilisk and the legendary heir of Slytherin.

Unexpectedly, just as the three of them were about to act, the voice of Professor McGonagall suddenly came from the school radio.

"All students, return to their respective college dormitories immediately."

"All professors, please gather in the corridor on the second floor immediately."

If it was an ordinary little wizard, the first reaction after hearing the broadcast would be to turn around and go back to the dormitory, but the three of Harry didn't have this awareness at all.

Without thinking, they rushed directly to the second floor of the castle.

Then at the corner of the stairs on the second floor, he hid and secretly observed the corridor not far ahead.

At this time, the faculty and staff of Hogwarts had already assembled, but the number was a bit small, and it seemed sparse.

Hagrid was captured, Lockhart didn't come.

The most important mage and Dumbledore also disappeared at this time.

Professor McGonagall, who seemed to have lost his backbone, said to the professors with a slightly flustered expression: "As you can see, the heir of Slytherin left another sentence."

Madam Pomfrey, the school doctor, after seeing the bloody writing on the wall, couldn't help covering her mouth and exclaiming, "The thing we fear the most has happened!"

"A student was kidnapped by a monster and brought to the secret room!"

Professor McGonagall said to everyone worriedly: "All the students must be sent home immediately, I am afraid that Hogwarts will be closed permanently."

The older cat girl was constantly complaining about Dumbledore.

Why did he go to the Ministry of Magic when the school needed him the most? Is there anything more important than the safety of these children in the school?

At this moment, the well-dressed Lockhart arrived late, and without knowing the urgency of the situation, he smiled and said, "Sorry, I took a nap, what's the matter?"

The frivolous tone made everyone present frown.

Even the three of Harry, who were hiding, couldn't help showing contemptuous expressions.

Snape, who had long been dissatisfied with this liar, sneered: "A girl was captured by a monster, Lockhart, your chance has finally come."

"My chance?" Lockhart still looked confused about the situation.

Snape said with a straight face, "Didn't you say last night that you know where the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets is?"

When the liar didn't know how to react, Professor McGonagall also joined the ranks of ridicule: "That's it, it's up to you to deal with that monster, Gildero."

"After all, your skills are so superb."

All the professors also looked at him with indifferent eyes, as if in an instant, Harold, who was quite popular not long ago, became a public enemy.

In such an unfavorable situation, no matter how strong his mental quality was, Lockhart still had an unnatural expression: "Okay, wait for me to go back... get ready."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, but the hurried back looked more like he was running away.

Taking her gaze away from the liar writer, Madam Pomfrey turned her head and asked, "Who did the monster take, Minerva?"

Professor McGonagall said a name heavily: "Ginny Weasley."

Ron, who was still eavesdropping not far away, immediately changed his face when he heard the name.

Then, the professors dispersed and began to prepare for the closure of the school.

After they left, the three little wizards finally saw clearly the words left by the heir on the wall.

【Her bones will remain in the secret room forever! 】

This time, Ron panicked even more, and kept chanting his sister's name, looking out of his mind, more serious than losing Scabbers back then.

Lu Wu, who was silently observing all this while he was in the office, was puzzled.

"Riddle's Diary" was already used as firewood by him last night. Why did the scene where Ginny was taken away still happen?

So, he was going to go to the secret room to see what was going on.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked out of the office, he happened to meet three little wizards who came to him.

Ron was the first to bear the brunt of it, and knelt down on the ground with a thud, crying and begging: "Professor, please, save my sister."
