The violent explosion sounded only for a moment in Linn's ears, and he felt that he was flying backwards quickly, passing various vague cloud shapes in front of him, and there was no sound around him.

　　 He didn't have time to think about what that explosion sound was, because all his energy was focused on the time converter in his hand.

Lynn didn’t turn the pointer fast, his lips squirmed slightly, and he would count forward every time he turned. He concentrated all his energy, because once he counted the wrong number, he didn’t have the opportunity to count again. .

　　", 244..."

He counted down in a circling rhythm of one second, the pointer of the time converter in his hand kept moving backwards, and his body was flying backwards. Lynn seemed to have a bottomless hole behind him. He kept falling, never touching the end.

　　 He couldn't hear the sound of his own number. Although Lynn read out every number, he couldn't hear anything.

But his thoughts were very focused, he didn't think about anything else, instead he read every number wholeheartedly. Every number means that he had stepped back for an hour and read directly to Lynn what Dumbledore told him. , The last number.

　　",!"

　　 He counted 483 laps, and then pushed the pointer back by 45 degrees, which also means that he has set time back 483 hours and 15 minutes.

The glowing clouds around 　　 disappeared, and Lynn felt that he was touching the ground again. He rubbed the floor lightly with the sole of his shoes, and then the light of the jumping fire caught his eyes.

　　 Now he is obviously no longer in the principal's room. Looking at the surroundings, this is the corridor on the third floor of Hogwarts.

There was no one around, and the time converter he held in his hand before did not know when it got wrapped around his neck. He untied the converter from his neck, and took two deep breaths to relieve it. The dizzy feeling of vomiting after the time travel is over.

　　 There are no electrical appliances in Hogwarts. The mechanical clock only displays the current time, but not today’s year, month, and day. However, Lynn wants to verify that he has returned to the correct time point in a very simple way.

　　 He drew out his wand and used the Illusion Charm on himself, and then walked down the stairs silently and lightly.

I didn’t meet anyone from the third floor to the first floor, which made Lynn a little relieved, because according to normal circumstances, all the professors, little wizards and ghosts in Hogwarts at this time were in the hall to attend the opening dinner. It is normal that there are no talents around.

He didn't have the courage to go to the auditorium to confirm the situation. Lynn's phantom spell is not very clever, at most he can only hide his figure in the shadows. If he gets to the brightly lit part of the auditorium, a slightly more careful person will be able to spot him at a glance. .

After he got down to the first floor, he waited quietly by the gate of the castle. Without asking Lynn to wait long, there was one wearing a large black robe, with greasy hair hanging down like kelp, and his face gloomy like a black lake. Water, like a middle-aged man with a big bat, came out of the auditorium, and pushed open the gate of the castle in front of Lynn.

　　 is Severus Snape, Lynn’s dean.

　　 Lynn didn't move, he continued to shrink in the corner and waited patiently. It didn't take long for Snape to sneer and grab the two embarrassed hapless men back to the castle.

"Good kind Harry, really good. Instead of going on the Hogwarts Express, he drove a flying car back to Hogwarts and crashed a precious old tree. He really didn’t bury it. Your idiot surname."

　　 Harry and Ron pulled their heads, listened to his cynicism behind Snape, and followed him into the auditorium.

Lynn watched this scene blankly in the shadows. Harry and Ron didn’t catch up with today’s Hogwarts Express because Dobby blocked the magic wall of nine and three-quarters of the station. He could only return to school in the magic car that Ron's father had remodeled privately, but the car broke down midway and fell over the castle and finally hit the beating willow, and Snape came out of the auditorium to look for them.

　　 This is what happened at the beginning of school on September 1.

　　 Through this Lynn can be sure, he did not count the wrong number of laps, and accurately returned to the day of the Hogwarts school dinner.

　　 After verifying today's date, he did not stay. While the school dinner was still going on, when there was no one else in the castle, Lynn quickly walked to the girl's bathroom in the corridor on the first floor.

　　 Myrtle is not in it today. Today is not only the opening dinner for the little wizards and professors, but the ghosts will also go to the auditorium to celebrate.

　　 This time is undoubtedly an excellent time for Lynn to verify that the Basilisk is in the secret room at this time.

If the basilisk is still there now, it proves that the secret room was opened after the beginning of school to the time when he first entered the secret room and found that the basilisk was missing. Then Lynn only needs to wait for the rabbit in this female bathroom. , You can catch the person who took the basilisk away from the secret room.

And if he enters now, the situation inside is the same as when he enters three weeks later, then things are even worse, which means that the time when the secret room is opened has to be opened again earlier, and may even be traced back to Lynn's first grade. During the first time in school, the longer the time span is stretched, the more complicated the situation is.

　　 Lynn prayed in his heart that things would not be so troublesome, and walked into the girls' bathroom.

　　 Familiarly he found the copper faucet with a snake engraved on it, and then took Tom out of his pocket.

　　 "What? Shall we go in this place again tonight?"

　　 Tom has always been in Lynn’s pocket, he doesn’t know that they have passed time.

　　 "I'm going in again to see Tom, maybe the basilisk is back suddenly?"

　　Because Tom was also suspicious, all Lynn did not tell him the truth, but instructed him to open the secret room again.

　　 As Tom said "open" the snake language, the cistern under the faucet separated from the middle, revealing a huge pipe inside. Lynn put Tom back in his pocket, and then climbed down the pipe.

　　 He soon fell to the ground.

　　 "Fluorescence flickering (no increase)."

　　 A bright white light shone from the tip of Lynn's wand, illuminating the dark secret room below.

　　 As soon as the light was shining, Lynn saw the behemoth beside him, and a flash of his reaction quickly retreated to a place ten meters away.

　　 And that huge creature seemed to be dead, and stayed on the spot without reacting to his movements.

　　 Lynn carefully pointed the light source on the wand at the thing, only then did he see that the thing was indeed not a living thing, but a snake skin that was more than twenty feet in length.

　　 The color of the snake skin is very bright, it is green under the magic wand, as if it hasn't been long after it has just been sloughed off, it is lying on the ground of the tunnel coiled and empty inside.

　　 Lynn was very sure that when he came to this secret room three weeks later, the snake skin had disappeared.

　　 Seeing this thing, he can be sure in his heart that someone must have entered the secret room during the period after school started. He still doesn't know if the basilisk was taken away, but this snake skin must have been taken away!

　　 Lynn has not studied the life habits of magical animals. He can't judge the specific time when this snake skin shed, but judging from the bright green on the surface, this snake skin was obviously not long after being shed.

　　 The secret room was still quiet. Lynn passed by the snakeskin and continued to go deep. He went to the Slytherin statue with its back against the wall.

　　 Lin En stood quietly in front of the statue without moving, and held his breath at the same time.

　　 His footsteps were the only sound source. Now that he stopped, the secret room became abnormally quiet. In this environment, some of the originally small sounds were gradually amplified.

　　 It was a slight hissing sound, very soft, but Lynn could hear the source of its sound from the mouth of the Slytherin statue.

　　 In order to make sure he heard it right, he took Tom out of his pocket again.

　　 "Would you like to continue talking about that great Slytherin now?" Tom asked with a yawn. He was a little sleepy. After all, according to the time when they crossed over, now is when he is going to sleep.

　　 Lynn shook his head and said softly to Tom.

　　 "No, you don't need to open your mouth this time, but listen carefully and tell me what you hear."

　　 After he finished speaking, he became quiet again. Tom is not as developed as Lynn's five senses. Even if his voice is very small, he can capture it keenly. He needs to listen more carefully.

　　 Lynn was not in a hurry, did not urge him, but waited quietly.

　　After a long time, Tom suddenly spoke.

　　 "It said he was hungry, the mouse has eaten enough, and it doesn't want to eat the mouse anymore."

　　 Tom paused for a moment, and then continued to translate, "The meat of a human child is delicious. It loves it, but he can't eat it without the owner's order. It is waiting for the owner to come back. It has been waiting for a long time."

　　 Translated here, Tom said with certainty: "Evil fellow! This thing must be the basilisk you said. I can understand what it says, but why did it come back?"

　　 confirmed that the basilisk was still in the secret room at this time, Lin suddenly let out a sigh, and he didn't hear any different emotions from Tom's words.

　　 "Maybe it went to the next door to bend before, but it is back now, which is a good thing."

　　 Lynn put Tom away again. He stared at Slytherin's ugly face like an old monkey, paused for a few seconds, then turned and walked outside the secret.

　　 To be honest, Lynn just hesitated, he inevitably came up with an idea.

Now I’ve solved the basilisk, and then I’m here to wait and catch the person who enters the secret room later, depending on the situation, whether he is given an Avada to eat a melon or an oblivion, so Lynn and the others are subjectively History has been changed, and the basilisk eventually disappeared, but the person who solved it was actually the future self.

However, if in objective history, the real murderer who took the basilisk was not a person, but a gang, it would be very troublesome for Lynn to do this. He would know all about the plan to bring the basilisk out of the secret room. All of the people’s memories are cleaned up, otherwise their memories do not match the original history, which means that Lynn has changed part of the subjective history of people, and he dare not gamble on the consequences afterwards.

　　 Lynn finally left the secret room honestly, closing the entrance to the secret room, and waiting for the person who would really take the basilisk away.

　　 He wasn't waiting in the secret room. Even if Lynn was physically strong and the monster had a match, he couldn't live without eating or drinking for seven consecutive days.

　　 But there is only one entrance to the secret room. As long as Lynn stays at the door of this girl's bathroom, he can wait until the person who releases the basilisk.

While the banquet was not over, Lynn secretly went to the kitchen and stole some food. Although there was some food in his extra-dimensional pocket, the space inside was limited after all. There were a lot of miscellaneous things, food and The amount of water stored for up to two days.

　　 Can't eat, Lynn can't stand it, but it doesn't matter if the quality of sleep is worse.

He was nestled in a corner of the bathroom, closed his eyes and squinted for a while to regain his energy for the day, but it was a bit embarrassing that this is also a girls’ toilet anyway, usually because of the presence of myrtle girls in higher grades. Basically, she doesn't come here, but the freshman girl who just started school doesn't know this ~lightnovelpub.net~ so Lynn can't stay in the bathroom all the time, he has to stay outside the bathroom during the day.

　　 While Lynn was licking bread in the corner of the bathroom, he faintly heard a cry from a distance.

　　 "It's great, they are alive and well, but unfortunately I died too early. If I didn't die, I would be able to attend the opening banquet as much as they did."

　　 Myrtle’s voice is highly recognizable, from far to near, in order to prevent her from hearing the movement, Lynn had to put away the bread that hadn’t been eaten in time.

　　 Even when she returned to her permanent residence, she did not stop crying. On the contrary, she seemed to have returned to a familiar place and her emotions were more released.

"Woo, when the group of ghosts were chatting just now, I asked the fat monk why he didn't invite me to this year's death party. He actually said that he didn't hold a death party this year. He must be lying to me. He didn't want to invite me to be sure. You are despising me."

"And Pippi, he laughed at the acne on my face again when he came out of the auditorium, but can this be something I can change? Nick, who was almost headless, couldn't cut off his head completely, oooooooo..."

　　 Myrtle’s deep self-talking and crying echoed in the bathroom, and Lynn unfortunately discovered that he would not be at peace at night. Whether this crying ghost can be quieted depends entirely on his luck.

　　 Lynn sighed silently, hoping that the person who opened the secret room would come here soon so that he could get rid of it quickly.
