Hogwarts: Starting from Creating the Lord of the Rings

Dumbledore wasn't really confident either.

Because Professor McGonagall didn't lie, the Hogwarts staff had indeed searched over and over again over the generations, and they never found the so-called secret room.

The Chamber of Secrets was opened fifty years ago, and a little Ravenclaw witch, the Weeping Myrtle, died.

Hagrid also took the blame for keeping Aragog's eight-eyed spider, which made Dumbledore feel sorry for him all the time.

Now the Chamber of Secrets is opened in one go.

Dumbledore stood up and left the lounge. After Professor McGonagall instructed Percy to take care of the Gryffindor students, he hurriedly left to find other professors.

Dumbledore was walking alone in the corridor, watching the surrounding walls, wondering what he was thinking.

"The pipe... the basilisk hiding in the pipe..."

"Slytherin's successor..."

Dumbledore was a little fortunate, because the two trolls attacked ghosts, and no students were injured, so he still had a chance to solve this problem.

If any of the students were attacked, I'm afraid the board of directors would have stormed into Hogwarts by now with a dismissal order.

"Dumbledore!"

Just as Dumbledore was thinking silently, Mag's panicked voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Minerva? What's wrong?"

Dumbledore vaguely felt that something bad had happened.

"Felch... Filch is missing! There's a broken oil lamp around the corner of the library, Filch's..."

Professor McGonagall's face was pale, she was trembling, obviously frightened.

Dumbledore didn't speak, but his expression had already explained everything, he didn't care about other things, and quickly rushed to the corner of the library floor.

There was a broken oil lamp on the ground. Judging from the solidified traces of the lamp oil, it fell to the ground around midnight last night.

"The mark appears!"

Dumbledore cast a spell, and messy footprints appeared on the ground, among which belonged to Filch...

It stopped abruptly near the oil lamp!

If nothing else, something happened to Filch.

Snape, Flitwick, and Nagini, who had arrived at the news, were all silent, and they vaguely guessed what had happened.

Fortunately, the little wizards were all ordered to stay in the lounge, so no one else knew about it.

Nagini sighed helplessly.

She and the basilisk say they are not allowed to attack the students... Filch is not a student, the basilisk did not break the agreement...

But I secretly sent him a lot of beef last night...

No one spoke. Although most professors didn't like Filch, he was a member of Hogwarts after all. When this happened, everyone felt bad.

"If the basilisks are not found... Hogwarts must be closed~.

Professor McGonagall closed his eyes and prayed silently.

Dumbledore's eyes became sharp, he looked at Snape and said:

"Severus... The Chamber of Secrets will not be opened for no reason. In this case, let's start with the legend... Slytherin's heir will not be someone from other academies, so please go to Slytherin's lounge, and the little wizards. Have a chat.

Snape is also a master of Legilimency. If Slytherin's heir is really hiding in Slytherin Academy, then Snape should be able to find some clues.

"Minerva, together with other professors, you have set up magical barriers in the bathrooms, toilets, abandoned classrooms, passages, etc. of the school. If the basilisk appears again, I want to know as soon as possible." "

Professor McGonagall nodded and glanced at the other professors.

Dumbledore sighed. He looked at the broken oil lamp on the ground and seemed to be muttering to himself:

"As for me... I have to deal with those people on the school board. Filch's matter cannot be concealed, or Hogwarts' reputation will be ruined..."

"Dumbledore...don't forget Harry, he's a Parseltongue.""

Professor McGonagall reminded, Dumbledore thought about it, and said:

"Let Harry come to my office this afternoon and I'll have a good chat with him... Okay, let's get moving.

Hearing what he said, Professor McGonagall couldn't say anything else. He and other professors were busy setting up the magical barrier. Snape was going to the Slytherin lounge to see if he could find some information about the heir. clue.

Dumbledore, on the other hand, left the castle and went to meet the directors of the school.

After learning about what happened at Hogwarts, most of the directors expressed concern. Only Lucius showed a surprised expression after learning the news. Dumbledore gave him a deep look. Finding that Lucius' state seemed to be a bit wrong, he instinctively noticed some problems.

Lucius lost his position as the chairman of the school board when he was turned against him last time. If the secret room incident was caused by him to take revenge on himself, it would not be impossible.

It's just that Dumbledore couldn't figure out how Lucius did it.

But if this matter has nothing to do with Lucius, why does he show such an expression?

Dumbledore didn't say much, but put his doubts in his heart, and he was going to return to Hogwarts to preside over the overall situation.

Just when Dumbledore was dealing with the school directors, Snape also left the Slytherin lounge. He had just left, and the little snakes of Slytherin couldn't help but discuss.

"" "I think something must have happened!"

Malfoy sat on the largest sofa in the lounge with a smug look on his face:

"The Chamber of Secrets has been opened! The Chamber of Secrets is real, I knew it was so, my father told me... Fifty years ago, the Chamber of Secrets was opened once, and I heard that a little wizard died!

As a descendant of the Malfoy family, Draco has a high status in the Snake House, and many little snakes are afraid to provoke him because of family reasons.

Just now, Snape also focused on asking Malfoy. As for Artel... Snape simply asked two questions, because Snape knew that Artel, who was born in Muggle, could not be the successor of Slytherin.

Seeing that everyone (the king's) was looking at him, Malfoy's expression became even more complacent. He took a bite of the pastry and said to himself:

"Professor Snape must have been looking for a Slytherin heir! Too bad it wasn't me...if it were me...those Muggles..."

As he spoke, Malfoy saw Artel looking at him half-smile.

"Cough cough... If it were me, this kind of thing wouldn't happen, I wouldn't open the secret room!

Malfoy's sudden change of attitude caused the other little wizards to burst into laughter, and some looked at Artel thoughtfully, with a somewhat surprised expression on their faces.

Especially Pansy Parkinson, who sat with her two roommates and looked at Artel with a hint of admiration in her eyes.

The prefect interrupted everyone's thoughts, his voice was a little low and a little scared:

"Anyway, something must have happened, or Dean Snape wouldn't have forbidden us to leave the lounge...I think, maybe someone has died..."
