The Heavens: Hogwarts Transfer Students

Chapter 272 The Ghost's Perpetual Motion Machine

The ghost of Helena Ravenclaw is known as Lady Gray at Hogwarts. Many students think she is Jane Grey, Queen of the Tudor Dynasty, but Helena has lived in ghost form longer than the British The first queen in history was much earlier.

Her true identity was the daughter of Rowena Ravenclaw, who died young and in a strange way.

It is said that Helena stole the Ravenclaw crown, which symbolizes wisdom, in order to prove that she was smarter and more famous than her mother thousands of years ago. Later, the mother Rowena was seriously ill and was bedridden. She wanted to see her daughter again before she died, so she sent a wizard named Baro to look for it. Baro found the hermit Helena in the forest of Albania, but because of Helena refused to go back with him, so he stabbed her to death.

So this is a wonderful story about a seriously ill mother who entrusts others to find her rebellious daughter, but ends up killing her.

Because Linde knew Helena's real identity, he directly called her Ms. Ravenclaw. Asked the whereabouts of Ravenclaw's crown, and the only person who succeeded was Tom Riddle, who was Alfred in the student days.

Back then, Tom was a model student at Hogwarts, with a handsome face and a sweet voice, he coaxed Helena's ghost into elation and revealed a secret that had been kept for thousands of years.

"I want you to do me a favor." Helena said softly, her expression was still proud, but her eyes flashed with anxiety and nervousness. She was very afraid of Linde's rejection, so she took the initiative to seek help but failed. For some people, it is a terrible humiliation.

Linde didn't agree directly, instead he talked about the first time they met each other. When Linde first arrived at Hogwarts, he spent a night wandering around the main castle, made a copy of the books in the library, and then met Helena. He chatted until dawn, but this proud ghost didn't say a word After listening carefully, she gave him a blank look before leaving.

"By the way, why were you willing to stay and listen to my trivial gossip?"

The arrogance on Ms. Helena's face was slightly dispelled by these memories, and her ladylike demeanor made her delicate and charming face look approachable.

"I only think of you as a little bird. Chirping, I just woke up at that time, and I don't mind listening to you."

Linde laughed dumbfounded.

He shook his head, and finally asked Helena what she wanted.

"Many years ago, I stole my mother's diadem. She sent Baron to me, but this man stabbed me." The dark wound, this is the cause of death.

"It doesn't matter that I die outside, but the mother's crown must not be left out. I hope you can get it back."

"It's easy." Linde disappeared without a trace before Helena could finish speaking. He used Apparition in Hogwarts Castle, where apparition is forbidden. Added an old faded gemstone tiara.

"Ah, you... how do you know where it is? I haven't said yet." Helena almost screamed.

"Actually, I have always known the whereabouts of the tiara. It's just that I didn't think it was very useful, so I left it alone."

Helena's expression froze, and she stepped forward, trying to touch the crown lightly, but the ghost's body went straight through the crown.

However, Helena firmly touched Linde's palm.

"Huh?" Helena squeezed subconsciously, feeling like touching a warm flame.

Due to the strong nature of the soul, Linde can touch the soul today. For the ghost, touching his body is like fighting against an invisible force field, and there will be a clear sense of resistance.

"You... are you already dead?" Helena looked terrified. A ghost makes a gesture of opening its mouth, which is quite funny.

"I'm pretty sure I'm still alive. Besides, this crown has been made into a Horcrux by Voldemort." Lind explained casually, "It's hidden in the Room of Requirement."

Helena's eyes lit up, and she stepped forward to poke Linde's shoulder curiously, circling around him, touching him here, touching there, admiring him from time to time.

"Ms. Ravenclaw, please be reserved. Your fingers are cold." Lind sneezed slightly with an itchy nose.

"Ah, I'm sorry." Helena floated back a little, regaining her haughty and stern expression, "You... are a very helpful wizard. This crown, please give it to Mr. Principal."

Linde noticed that the pearly luster on Helena's body surface gradually dimmed, and the shell of the missing body that wrapped her was dissolving. For a ghost, the obsession in the heart is made up, which means liberation.

Helena murmured to herself: "Finally, mother will not be ashamed because of me... Ah, sweet death..."

The ghost slowly dissipated. Linde watched Helena's relief on the spot, and expressed his condolences to this friend who had not seen many times.

However, Helena's ghost was not completely free. Unexpectedly, when her body completely dissolved, it re-condensed in a burst of white mist.

"...Huh? Why am I here?"

Helena, who failed to escape, was wearing a wizard robe and a pointed hat. She became younger than before. She looked about seventeen or eighteen years old, and she was still dressed as a student. She also seemed to have lost part of her memory, and asked herself in a panic why she was here.

"What's the matter with me? Hey, which college are you from? Why haven't I seen you before?" The young Helena stared at Linde. At this time, she was not as defiant as she was later, and her words were crisp and full of vitality. Still in flowering season.

"Ms. Ravenclaw, you are dead."

"What?! How did I die? Who, who killed me? Does my mother know about this? Did she cry?"

"It's really strange to miss you again." Linde whispered to himself, his eyes showed curiosity.

A ghost who was obsessed with liberation actually reunited, presumably there must be a stronger obsession to reverse the liberation process.

Who else in this world can never forget Helena?

The answer is actually very clear.

He turned his head and looked around, and saw the bloody Barrow slowly floating towards the end of the corridor—this ghost was the murderer who killed Helena. After Helena died, the remorseful Barrow committed suicide with a murder weapon. His ghostly body was stained with Helena's blood, which is why he was called a blood man.

"Helena..."

Undoubtedly, it was Barrow's strong longing that brought the liberated Helena back to the present world.

Linde couldn't help shaking his head. He understood that it was impossible for the two ghosts to escape. Their obsessions were entangled. Even if one ghost was released, the other ghost would bring the other back to the present world. The magic ghost perpetual motion machine belongs to is.

Helena squinted her eyes and looked up and down the Bloody Baron. This ragged and manacled man was once the first student of Hogwarts. He learned the way of magic from Salazar Slytherin. Lena Ravenclaw's classmate and hopeless admirer.

"Who are you?"

"It's me, Barrow."

"How did you become so sloppy?" Helena covered her mouth and snickered, the seventeen or eighteen-year-old's bright eyes are really pleasing, "You are still in shackles, you must have been punished by the old snake for not handing in your homework, right?" ? But it’s too much to lock you up in shackles, do you want me to ask my mother to say something nice for you?"

"Oh, Helena, I'm sorry..." Barrow explained the past of the two with a sad expression, and as expected, he was severely reprimanded by Helena.

Linde sighed softly, and with him sighed were fat monk, Sir Nick and other ghosts, who hid around the corner to observe the situation secretly.

The fat monk wiped the corners of his eyes, feeling sorry for the grievances between the two old friends. He lamented in a low voice, "Oh, poor man, love is really scary. Fortunately, I have been a bachelor all my life."

Helena ran away crying, Barrow stayed where he was in embarrassment, Linde could only shake his head when he saw this, and went back to the dormitory.

At dawn, he handed Dumbledore the Ravenclaw diadem.

The old headmaster was overjoyed when he learned that this thing turned out to be the treasure that had been missing for thousands of years.

"Extraordinary ingenuity is the greatest treasure of mankind." Dumbledore read the inscription on the crown, "That's right, it is indeed a Ravenclaw relic. It is said that people who wear it will become more intelligent. When I was studying, many students wanted to find this tiara so that they could pass the final test. Ah, I can't wait to try its effect, I am sorry to say, but I have some memory loss recently."

Dumbledore was very busy, and the big project of building the mastermind made him feel that his brain cells were almost burned out. Having such a treasure to improve intelligence was like sending charcoal in a timely manner.

Linde reminded at the right time, "This crown has been made into a Horcrux by your good student."

Ah Fu was staring at the Horcrux, with a grotesque expression on his dog's face, as if Gulu saw the Supreme Lord of the Rings and wanted to pounce on it on the spot.

"Got to cleanse. I recently learned a new charm, the one you created."

Linde and Dumbledore's eyes turned to it at the same time.

Ah Fu froze, raised his dog's paw, and covered his eyes.

Dumbledore waved his wand and muttered softly: "[Purification of uncleanness]."

A bright light flashed, black smoke erupted from Ravenclaw's crown, and Alfred screamed empathetically. Of course, at this time, Harry also seemed to have been punched, his whole body went limp, and he fell to the ground.
