Harry Potter’s Book of Sin

Chapter 675: Useless pursuit

In fact, since Hermione had brought Harry and others to the Requirement Room that day, they knew the Horcruxes and soon remembered the second-year secret room and basilisk attack.

In the back room, they saw Tom Riddle in person-from the black-covered diary.

For this reason, during the holiday season, they made preparations to break into the Slytherin Chamber again. Because in the second grade, there was no evidence of the death of the basilisk, so they naturally thought that the basilisk might still be living in the back room.

Because of this, the three little lions, together with the little hawk, Luna, have deliberately stepped up to practice. Including the eye disease curse which is reportedly effective on the basilisk, including the existence curse which can barely grasp its movements with closed eyes, and the magic potion that resists petrification ...

Hermione even bought two big **** to target the weakness of the Basilisk.

Of course, this is just because the book mentions that the roar of a rooster can drive away the basilisk. Whether this is a truly effective method is unknown.

Unfortunately, though, they made a series of preparations to deal with the "possibly" alive basilisk. But when I went there, I found that the Basilisk had disappeared for a long time, leaving only a pile of rocks.

Naturally, Tom Riddle's diary was not found. Harry was a little puzzled about this, but Hermione thought that the diary might have been taken away by Marka.

As for the secret room in the secret room that Maca had found when she went back for the second time, he had been sealed by him for a long time, but Hermione and others did not notice it.

"... I heard a story at Ms. Gray. Do you ... want to hear it?"

In Hogwarts' vestibule garden, when the three little lions were worrying about no other clues, Luna, who stood still, suddenly spoke.

"Ms. Gray? Oh ... is that ghost beauty in Ravenclaw College?" Ron scratched his head. "Although I really want to hear it, but now ... it doesn't seem to be a story. ? "

Everyone is getting used to Luna's inscrutable speech. Ron naturally thought that Luna's thoughts had gone awry, even Harry thought that was the case, but Hermione had paid a little attention.

"What story? Is it something related to the Horcrux?" In the principle of not letting go of all possible clues, Hermione still asked.

"Oh, I don't know ... maybe?" Luna said with eyes blinded, and seemed to have entered her unique dream mode. "At least it has something to do with Tom Riddle ... it's him, cheating from Ms. Gray's mouth The location of Ravenclaw's crown ... "

...

Ms. Gray ... also Helena Ravenclaw, a woman with a dignified and beautiful appearance. After death, he turned into a ghost but still can be called a beauty, and his appearance before his death is naturally conceivable.

It's just that the female ghost of Ravenclaw College is beautiful, but always with a domineering posture, people feel not close.

If Maca had gone to her and tried to say hello beforehand, Luna's temperament would not have intersected this prickly rose.

But in general, since Luna's enrollment, Ms. Gray has taken care of Luna. For example, when Luna is unfamiliar with the castle, follow her fingers, or for example, occasionally chat. Over time, this living man and a ghost also gradually developed so many friendships.

Due to some past events, Ms. Gray does not like those who pretend, and what she can't stand is deception. But Luna is an extremely pure girl, and she still likes her appetite.

So, one day after Voldemort was destroyed by Maca, Ms. Gray seemed to have a little affection for the past. Luna has become her target.

"Do you know? The man who died there recently stole something from me."

That day, Ms. Gray said so quietly in front of a window in Ravenclaw Tower. In her translucent eyes, there was a complicated flash of light, seemingly caught in some embarrassing memories.

"It's wrong to steal something," Luna said, glancing at the ghost floating by the window.

Although Luna's sentence was simple and empty, it seemed to Ms. Gray that it was unimaginably heavy. The other side also looked at Luna's side, but quickly looked away.

"Yeah! It's wrong to steal something ..." Ms. Gray repeated the sentence softly, with deep meaning in her words. "Maybe, because I stole something first, and then I get punished again and again?"

She was talking and couldn't help but sigh gently.

"Do you know?" She said, "that man stole my trust in him ... he stole my trust in a mean way ..."

Luna didn't speak this time, she just stood aside as usual, quietly being a listener. Sure enough, Ms. Gray continued to talk without waiting for her to say anything.

"That man, Tom Riddle ..." She said, "He pleased me with rhetoric. He praised my beauty and wisdom. He said that I was no worse than my mother. Then ... he took advantage of me to him When feeling good, I asked me where the crown made by my mother was. He also said that he was willing to help me find it and then dedicate it to me ... "

"But ... but ..." Speaking of this, Ms. Gray was extremely lost. "He still lied to me-he found the crown, but he didn't give it to me, and he lied that he didn't find it."

"I know he must have found it, because no one but me knows where the crown is, it must still be there ..."

As she was talking, Ms. Gray slowly shook her head again, and her eyes looking out the window were full of weakness.

"But what can I do with him?" She continued. "I'm just a ghost, and he, then, has graduated. He returned to Hogwarts that day, just to apply for a professorship in the defense of black magic class. Yes ... Later, he did not apply and left alone ... "

...

"... the crown of Ravenclaw."

Hermione clearly knew what the crown mentioned in Luna's narrative was. When she saw her groan for a while, she frowned and showed a thoughtful expression.

"Excellent wisdom is the greatest wealth of mankind." Luna chanted in a light tone, "Ravenclaw's crown can enhance the wearer's wisdom."

"But I really didn't expect that Ms. Gray turned out to be Royna Ravenclaw's daughter ..." Ron's concern was obviously a little bit distant.

"So, the clue seems to be ... but, did you break it again here?" Harry reluctantly said, "Voldemort might make the crown into his Horcrux, and then hide somewhere ... after all, How many Horcruxes did Voldemort make? "

"Who knows?" Hermione said, "but at least, it's definitely not going to be one-that's obviously too unsafe for him! You think, we actually encountered the diary so easily. ... "

Hermione's analysis was of course reasonable. But they did not know that the reason for the diary to appear under their eyes was actually the "merit" of Lucius Malfoy.

While they were still thinking about the number of Horcruxes, Ron suddenly spoke again.

"Actually," he hesitated, "I'm more curious about Ms. Gray ... Luna, you said just now, she said she stole something, right? So she will be punished or something ..."

"Um." Luna nodded quickly. "She stole her mother's crown and hid it in the mountains of Albania ... she said, it should be a big tree hole."

So here ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ Luna instead became interested and whispered: "Later, Royna Ravenclaw sent a girl who loved Ms. Gray to get her daughter back. Barrow went looking for ... Do you know who Barrow is? In fact, he is the blood man of Slytherin Barrow! "

"Oh, this is really amazing news!" Ron said gossipingly, "So? Later? What story should there be ... Don't tell me that there is no more ..."

"Later," Luna said mysteriously, "Barrow stabbed Ms. Gray to death because Ms. Gray did not want to return to Hogwarts with him!"

"This……"

Since no one had expected that Ms. Gray was so dead, she signaled that all three were quite shocked. But Luna didn't pause for a long time, and then she continued ...

"... But after Ms. Gray's death, Barrow was also very remorseful, so he committed suicide on the spot." She said, "So, Barrow became a blood man, Barrow—the blood on him was not just himself Yes, and some, Ms. Gray's. "

"Barrow, the bloody, is so irritable that this kind of thing would happen ..." Harry nodded. "But these stories are set aside! What we need to know now is that Voldemort hid the golden crown. Where is it? "

As Harry had said before, he managed to get an unexpected clue from Luna's mouth, but when he got here, the clue was broken again.

Two consecutive items that may be Horcruxes can only be traced on the way, this feeling is undoubtedly embarrassing. But the world is so big, the wizard can use the phantom to curse the world at any time, and it is more difficult to find a needle that is deliberately hidden.

Since then, time has passed day by day, and unconsciously, the International Alchemy Contest is almost here.
