All Heavens: Transfer Students at Hogwarts

Chapter 272 The ghost’s obsession with perpetual motion

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

Her true identity was Rowena Ravenclaw's daughter, who died young and the cause of her death was quite strange.

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 Lind knew Helena's true identity, he always called her Ms. Ravenclaw. This was not a big secret. Generations of Hogwarts students hoped to learn from Helena's ghost. The only person who succeeded in asking about the whereabouts of Ravenclaw's diadem was Tom Riddle, also known as Alfred when he was a student.

Back then, Tom was a model student at Hogwarts. He had a handsome face and an eloquent voice. He coaxed Helena's ghost into joy and revealed the 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 did not agree directly. Instead, he talked about the first time they met. When Lind first arrived at Hogwarts, he spent a night wandering around the main castle and made a copy of the books in the library. Then he met Helena. He chatted until dawn, and this proud ghost said nothing. After hearing this, she rolled her eyes at him before leaving.

"By the way, why were you willing to stay and listen to me talk about these unimportant gossips in the first place?"

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 just think you are a little bird. You were 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 from her.

"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 if I die outside, but my mother's crown cannot be left outside. 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 it 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 was stagnant, and she stepped forward and tried to touch the crown lightly, but the ghost's body went straight through the crown.

However, Helena firmly touched Lind's palm.

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

Due to the powerful nature of the soul, Linde can now touch the soul. For the ghost, touching his body is like fighting against an invisible force field, with 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. In addition, this crown has been made into a Horcrux by Voldemort." Linde explained casually, "It is 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 very cold." Linde had an itchy nose and sneezed slightly.

"Ah, I'm sorry." Helena floated back a little, regaining her arrogant and cold expression, "You... are a very helpful wizard. Please give this crown to Mr. Principal."

Linde noticed that the pearly luster on Helena's body began to fade, and the outer shell of her missing body was dissolving. For a ghost, the redress of the obsessions in his heart means liberation.

Helena murmured to herself: "Finally, my mother will no longer be ashamed of me... Ah, sweet death..."

This ghost slowly dissipated. Linde watched Helena's liberation from where she was, and expressed condolences to this friend whom she had not seen often.

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 wrong with me? Hey, which college are you from? Why haven't I seen you before?" Young Helena glared at Linde. At this time, she was not as arrogant as she was later, and her speech was crisp and energetic. 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 unexpectedly re-condensed, presumably there must be a stronger obsession to reverse the liberation process.

Who else in this world would 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..."

There is no doubt that it was Barrow's strong yearning that brought Helena, who had been freed, 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."

"Why have you become so sloppy?" Helena covered her mouth and snickered. Her seventeen or eighteen-year-old bright eyes were really endearing. "You are still shackled. You must have failed to hand in your homework and were punished by the old snake, right?" ? But locking you up with shackles is too much. Do you want me to ask mom to put in a good word 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 the Fat Monk, Sir Nick and other ghosts also sighed with him. They were hiding around the corner to secretly observe the situation.

The fat monk wiped the corners of his eyes, feeling sad for the feud between these two old friends. He lamented in a low voice, "Oh, poor man, love is really scary. Fortunately, I have been a bachelor my whole 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 principal was overjoyed when he learned that this thing turned out to be the treasure that had been missing for thousands of years.

"Extraordinary intelligence is the greatest treasure of mankind." Dumbledore read the inscription on the crown, "Yes, it is indeed a relic of Ravenclaw. It is said that people who wear it will become smarter. In my opinion, When I was in school, many classmates wanted to find this tiara to help them pass the final exam. Ah, I can't wait to try its effect. I'm sorry to say it, 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 promptly reminded, "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.

"It needs to be purified. I recently learned a new spell, 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 whispered: "[Purify uncleanness]."

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