Dressed as a Hogwarts portrait

In a way, there is only one wizarding school in the UK that has caused this secret to be leaked. There are just a few of those Aurors who know that there is such a mysterious classroom on the eighth floor. Of course they don’t know very well. Some people It was because I broke in in a panic and couldn't find it afterwards, and it was more because I heard about it, so when the little girl and the savior disappeared in front of my eyes, the answer was ready to come out.However, these Aurors were all specially selected by Fudge, and few of them were born in Gryffindor. Even those born in the Lion House did not have a good impression of the White Wizard. The Ministry of Magic was very thoughtful in this regard.

So they didn't make a sound rashly. Filch ran over panting, holding a large bottle of milk in his hand. Everyone in the castle knew that the old caretaker picked up a litter of kittens. They walked around those little guys, but the Aurors who had already graduated from school laughed in surprise and disdain.

Argus Filch was nothing but a Squib, as anyone who went to Hogwarts knew.

"Yes, the eighth floor! For many years, I have chased those unruly little bastards, especially at night, they will disappear from here very strangely! I even grabbed them by the hem of their clothes once, but I bumped into them. to the wall..."

Filch's words finally aroused Umbridge's interest. She looked up and down the wall, which was completely intact. The knocking of her hand and the poking of her wand proved that it was indeed a solid wall.

"It's funny how I never knew."

"...Oh, I'm so sorry, I forgot you were here for seven years, too."

If it wasn't for having no choice, Filch would not want to pay attention to this pretentious and stupid woman. He only came here with the intention of avenging Madam Rosely.

It can't die in vain, even if it can cause a little trouble for the basilisk, he will be happy.

The old Squib was not stupid, he knew that the Duke of Slytherin must have ordered the basilisk not to return to its true form, so can an 11-year-old girl beat the Ministry of Magic?Well, maybe it could, if it got into the pipe, but it was a bad day for her not to be able to eat, sleep, run away, and panic on such a sunny weekend.

Umbridge's more than a month of struggle in school has been effective.

Originally, she thought that she would get the support of Slytherin House. You must know that almost all the people who hate the white wizard came from there, but the result was beyond her expectation, except for a few stupid Muggle-born Hufflepuffs who agreed to Besides giving her news, the best thing is Gryffindor Percy Weasley.

It was hard to imagine that the son of a diehard family of the Order of the Phoenix would wholeheartedly want to enter the Ministry of Magic. No, to be more precise, his young heart was full of ambitions to leave the family, prove his abilities, and gain power.

Now Umbridge was looking angrily at the wall when he couldn't call Percy in time.

There was clearly not enough time for Fudge to stall Dumbledore in the Great Hall.

"Smash this wall down!"

The sound of Umbridge screaming could not have reached the Room of Requirement at that time. At this time, Harry was still playing with the Pensieve he saw at Dumbledore's last time, but obviously, everything seemed real, but the full spinning pens The countless glass bottles in the room are all empty, this is just an identical room that appeared because of their needs, and it is impossible to actually have the memory fragments of the White Wizard.

Harry was so devastated that he thought he had stumbled into a weird room, that at worst Umbridge would find them soon, at worst no one would find them, and then he would Starved to death with Aerys in it.

The little basilisk girl was lying under the cabinet and rummaging around.

It threw documents and other things all over the place, though, quite a pity, it didn't find the guaranteed candy.

Iris was very annoyed, if it was a room exactly like the principal's office, she would definitely be able to find a lot of food, so everything here is fake, it's so boring, she wants to go back.

"Iris, what are you doing!"

Harry caught the Sorting Hat thrown about by the basilisk, shook it carefully, and found that it was a dirty hat, he couldn't speak, sigh or snore, and the portraits on the wall were still asleep look.

Aerys touched the wall behind the shelf, scratched her forehead, and thought about something.

"Why is there no secret way?"

"Of course not, it's not real..."

The second half of the Savior's words got stuck in his throat, as the wall behind the shelf on which the Sorting Hat was placed shifted by itself, stepping aside in a pose of indescribably good-looking beauty that dazzled Harry. aisle.

"Iris."

The savior grabbed the little girl who was about to go inside, and stared dumbfounded at the road that never appeared in the principal's office.

"Secret way!"

Harry was completely speechless, and let Aerys drag him in blankly—no way, who can fight a basilisk, it's okay for Iris to let Harry drag him away, if he doesn't like it, Just relying on the thin frame of the golden boy?

The moment they entered the passage, the room seemed to melt from the walls, the portraits and bookshelves disappeared without a sound, and Harry obviously forgot that he was thinking about the secret passage when he drilled three times in the corridor. The passage to enter the Chamber of Secrets, even if the last time I thought about it was the principal's office, it was "the principal's office with a secret passage to the Chamber of Secrets". Since the door to the Room of Requirement was opened, it must have the same idea as Harry.

"This is not a secret path, there is no way to go ahead."

After walking a few steps, Harry touched the bricks around him depressedly. He wondered if it was his illusion. He felt that the bricks in the dark passage were getting colder and colder, and even felt slippery. He couldn't help but take out the bricks. The magic wand muttered softly, and the fluorescent light flickered, and the savior was dumbfounded a second later.

He had been to places like this before, and he would never forget them.

Here's the tube --

The faint light clearly illuminates the wet, cold, moss-covered round walls, and the water that keeps seeping in. In fact, the place is not very big, but within a few meters, it is the same as the pipes extending in all directions that he used to flee for his life two years ago. It was exactly the same, and the basilisk that was chasing and swallowing him back then was right beside him, Harry couldn't help shaking, and the hand that was originally holding Iris also felt the abnormal coldness on the little girl's body—snakes all It is a cold-blooded creature, the savior suddenly realized this clearly.

The only passage was behind them, where they had just come in.

With an extremely bad premonition, Harry ran out.

He expected to see the dimly lit chamber, flanked on either side by towering stone pillars entwined with carved stone serpents, rising up and disappearing into the darkness to the ceiling.It should be water everywhere, so quiet that even the sound of dripping water is like a muffled thunder looming in the sky.But I didn't expect him to be completely stunned as soon as he came out.

He was indeed in an ancient room with dim light, but there was no water, and it was very small. At his feet was a pile of broken mirror-like things. Some exquisitely carved sapphires and white crystals shone softly on the mirror frame. .In the empty room, there is a painting hanging on the opposite wall. The very old and exquisite picture frame occupies half of the wall in this room. On the painting is an entire tall bookshelf, a fireplace burning with warm flames, and exquisite patterns on it. It is almost eye-catching, beside the exquisite mahogany table, sitting on a chair covered with thick dark green velvet cushions is a black-haired and green-eyed boy, leaning back slightly, his expression fixed on the one who is staring deeply outside the painting. one second.

The people in the painting were motionless, but that didn't stop Harry's suspicion from growing.

Elegant and noble sitting quietly in this elegantly furnished room, Harry once felt that "Professor Nyx" was always a bit weird, and finally he could explain it clearly. Slytherin was not a person of this era, he lived in In the Middle Ages, with all the temperament and behavior of noble wizards at that time, it is noble and gorgeous with a rich history, so it is so harmonious with this castle, but it stands so abruptly among other people.

"Is this...the Chamber of Secrets?"

Well, the truth about the savior, this is the Slytherin's secret room that Hogwarts really recognizes, a secret room that no one is allowed to enter, if there is no little basilisk girl, Harry will run three hundred times in the corridor The circle can't make the Room of Requirement like this, otherwise Godric can come in to see what the Chamber of Secrets looks like when he builds the Room of Requirement, and he can also know what magical creature Salazar raised in the legend.

[Stand there, not allowed to approach the master's portrait. ]

Facing the basilisk that was suddenly vigilant as if protecting its territory, Harry was a little dumbfounded: [Iris... this room doesn't seem to be real either. ]

No matter how stupid the savior is, he doesn't believe in a secret room that can be opened without using Parseltongue.

[Don't come close! ]

The little girl's eyes began to glow with a terrifying cold light.

[Okay...okay, I'm not coming close. ]

Harry rubbed his forehead with a headache, and began to think about what kind of place this is, why anything can appear when he thinks about it, if he can really think about it, why does he think about the kitchen now, but this room doesn't become full of food What about the kitchen?

"Boom..."

The sound was not loud at first, and Harry thought it was an illusion.

Then the sound became louder, and the ground and walls shook.

The savior and the basilisk looked at each other, their eyes full of doubts.

"boom!"

This time Harry came to his senses, his expression completely changed:

"Umbridge! She's breaking walls!"
