Harry Potter’s Book of Sin Chapter 73: Make a fool of yourself

　　 Basilisk is almost covered with extremely tough scale armor, which can not only withstand ordinary swords and sharp weapons, but even spells can withstand or even rebound.

　　 Even if it has become a corpse now, it is still quite troublesome to cut.

　　 Speaking of it, Maca really wants to chop it up and take it all away. After all, this is a basilisk! There is no exaggeration to say that it is a treasure.

　　 But even this suitcase that has been stretched cursed can't fit it all in.

　　 In the end, when Maca turned and left, this ancient beast that had caused Hogwarts to close the school and caused Dumbledore to receive the school board’s removal order has turned into a bunch of ancient beasts. No one can recognize Roshan.

　　 As Maca left, the stone gate was finally closed. But before long, I heard a dull roar and collapse in the secret room, and the whole ground vibrated slightly.

　　……

　　 On the other side, Lockhart returned to his office with Harry, Ron, and Ginny, and then Professor McGonagall arrived soon after. She brought Lockhart and her three children to her office, where many people were waiting for them.

　　 Harry, Ron, Ginny, and Lockhart stood at the door. Harry and the others were almost covered with mud and slime. Although Lockhart looked better, he was invisible all the way. , The mud splash is always inevitable.

　　 For a time, there was silence all around. Suddenly, there was a scream near the fireplace—"Ginny!"

　　 is Mrs. Weasley, she has been sitting in front of the fire crying just now. At this moment she jumped up abruptly, followed by Mr. Weasley, and both of them stretched out their arms at the same time and embraced their baby girl.

　　Ron stood by, his head still bowed, not knowing what he was thinking.

　　 Harry's gaze crossed them, looking into the room.

　　 He saw Professor Dumbledore standing in front of the mantelpiece with a smile on his face. And standing beside Dumbledore was Hermione who was also smiling!

　　 "Oh! Hermione? Are you all right?" Harry said in surprise.

　　 Hermione smiled and nodded, but her eyes were still looking behind Harry, as if expecting something.

　　"When you violated a bunch of school rules, Miss Granger was already awake. It was McLean, who had spent two days and nights in a row, and made a resurrection potion out of just mature mandela grass— —That is his modified formula, very effective!"

　　 Professor McGonagall explained happily next to him.

　　 Ron, who was standing not far away, raised his head suddenly.

　　 He looked at Hermione, then at Ginny, the expression on his face changed continuously, and finally he lowered his head again dejectedly.

　　 Just then, Mrs. Weasley looked at Lockhart excitedly. Unlike the usual worship of stars, it is a kind of respect from the heart.

　　 "Professor Lockhart, you saved her! You saved her! What did you do?"

　　 "This is what we all want to know." Professor McGonagall looked at Lockhart hesitantly.

　　 In front of the mantelpiece, Dumbledore also put on a curious expression.

　　 Ke Lockhart looked at Mrs. Weasley, with a slightly confused look in his eyes. When Harry reached out his hand and pulled the hem of his clothes, he suddenly came back to his senses.

　　 "Oh-of course, I will tell you the whole process." Lockhart showed a smile from the past, but the smile is not the usual show-off, it seems Somewhat perfunctory.

　　 "Well, but before that, I think everyone has to listen to Mr. Porter's reasoning. I think that is the real beginning of the rescue of Miss Weasley."

　　 Following Lockhart's words, everyone's eyes fell on Harry again.

　　As everyone watched, Harry hesitated for a moment, and then began to talk about the things he had experienced.

　　 He talked for about ten minutes. Everyone listened quite attentively, and the room was silent.

　　 But when he said that the note in Hermione's hand had brought him a key clue, Hermione nodded at everyone without surprise.

　　 It's just that her hands hanging on her side are tightly gripping the cuffs.

　　 When Harry finished speaking, Lockhart had completely recovered to his usual state. He raised his head and exaggerated the whole process after entering the secret room with a passionate expression.

　　 Storytelling has always been his specialty, not to mention, this time he followed them almost invisibly!

　　 "Is it really like this?"

　　 Listening, Professor McGonagall couldn't help asking Harry.

　　 Harry glanced at Dumbledore subconsciously, and saw the principal smiling faintly, the fire flashing quickly on his half-moon glasses.

　　 "Oh-roughly that's right -"

　　 "I am most interested," Dumbledore said suddenly, "What did Voldemort use to confuse Ginny, because according to my sources, he is currently hiding in the forests of Albania!"

　　 "Wh...what?" Mrs. Weasley said in astonishment, "Mysterious man? Confused Ginny? But Ginny isn't... Ginny doesn't... does it?"

　　 "It's all the diary," Harry said quickly, "It was written when Riddle was sixteen, and there is a memory in it."

　　 "Diary?" Dumbledore frowned slightly.

　　 Harry looked at Lockhart. He thought Lockhart should know the final whereabouts of the diary.

　　 Ke Lockhart shook his head. He said, "As I said just now—I pierced it with the basilisk’s fangs. The basilisk’s venom penetrated the entire diary, the mysterious man’s The phantom also disappeared. Then I was busy taking the children out, that diary... should still be in the secret room now."

　　 "It's amazing," Dumbledore thought for a while, and said softly, "Without McLean, he would probably be the best student ever at Hogwarts."

　　 He turned around and faced the Weasleys, both of them very confused.

　　"Very few people know that Voldemort used to be called Tom Riddle. Fifty years ago, at Hogwarts, I personally taught him. He disappeared after leaving school...wandering all over the place. The world... is sinking deeper and deeper in the quagmire of black magic, mingling with the most evil fellow in the wizarding world, and undergoing many dangerous magical transformations."

　　 "In the end, he reappeared as Voldemort, and it was hard to recognize him at that time-almost no one connected Voldemort with the smart, handsome boy student council chairman who had studied here."

　　 Dumbledore remembered that time in the past, and at the same time remembered Maca now. In his pale blue pupils, complicated eyes flickered faintly.

　　 "But Ginny?" Mrs. Weasley said, "What does our Ginny have to do with him?"

　　"His day...diary!" Ginny sobbed and said, "I have been...writing on it for a whole year. He...he kept writing back to me..."

　　 "Ginny!" Mr. Weasley was stunned and said, "Didn't I teach you? How do I always tell you? Never believe in anything that can think independently, unless you see clearly Where does it hide your mind. Why didn't you show me or your mother the diary? A suspicious thing like that is obviously full of black magic!"

　　 "I...I don't know," Ginny was still crying sadly, "I found it in a book my mother gave me. I...I thought someone caught it there and forgot... …"

　　 "Miss Weasley should go to the school hospital immediately," Dumbledore interjected involuntarily, "This is a painful torture for her, and the school will not punish her. Many are better than her. Older wizards who are more resourceful than her have been blinded by Voldemort."

　　 He strode to the door and opened it gently.

　　 "Bed rest. Perhaps, I should also drink a big cup of steaming chocolate milk-I always think that is good for improving my mood."

　　 As he said, he bowed his head and blinked at Ginny kindly.

　　"You will find that Mrs. Pomfrey is not asleep. She has been studying the modified mandela grass resurrection potion formula that McLean gave her!"

　　 Mrs. Weasley led Ginny out, and Mr. Weasley followed, still looking like she had been hit hard.

　　 And more frustrated than Mr. Weasley, it was Ron, who was called by Dumbledore—he wanted to go to the school hospital with his father~IndoMTL.com~You know, Miller Baby," Professor Dumbledore said thoughtfully to Professor McGonagall, "I think these things are worth celebrating with a banquet. Can I ask you to inform the kitchen? "

　　 "Well, by the way, please help me ask McLean and take him to my office to wait for me." Dumbledore added.

　　 "Okay," she said simply in response, and walked towards the door, "Potter and Weasley will leave it to you, right?"

　　 "Of course." Dumbledore said.

　　Professor McGonagall left, Harry and Ron stared at Dumbledore nervously.

　　What did Professor McGonagall mean? Deal with them? Shouldn't they...should they...be punished?

　　 But Dumbledore smiled and added some points to each of them. He also praised Harry for his decisiveness and cleverness, and Ron's love for his sister Ginny.

　　, he turned to Lockhart again and looked at him curiously.

　　 "Gidro, I think you are very suitable for teaching this profession, maybe next semester——"

　　 Lockhart hurriedly interrupted: "Oh! No, no...I mean...this experience has revealed a lot of shortcomings for me. I need to work harder. I think when I have more things to teach students, I will come back to teach..."

　　 He talked a lot in a mess, and his thoughts about not wanting to stay to continue teaching have been revealed.

　　 "Oh-that's a shame." Dumbledore said casually, then turned his gaze to Ron and said, "I want to talk to Harry a few more..."

　　 Lockhart hurried out immediately. Ron hesitated for a moment, and then left.
