The Alchemist of Harry Potter

It was the first time Harry entered Albert's dormitory. He looked at the Hogwarts genius quarters with wide eyes and curiously, and was surprised to find that it was no different from his own.

If there was any difference, it was probably the cat-crawler on the wall, and he had seen something similar at Mrs. Figg's house next door to Dursley.

Almost forgot, Albert has a very fat cat named... Tom.

Yes, Tom, the same name as Riddle.

The sound of "creak" came from behind, and Harry turned his head to look at the sound, and saw that Albert had just closed the dormitory door with his backhand.

The dormitory fell into a dead silence, and Harry felt his heart beat faster.

"You want to ask me about Hagrid?" Albert asked straight to the point.

"Let me come to you before Hagrid is taken away by the Minister of Magic," Harry admitted honestly.

"If you want to ask if Hagrid is the heir of Slytherin, my answer is: no." Albert probably understood why Hagrid asked Harry to come to him. He hoped that he could explain it to Harry clearly, he didn't want to. Make Harry misunderstand himself.

"Fifty years ago, Hagrid was indeed expelled from Hogwarts for the attack, but that attack had nothing to do with Hagrid."

Seeing that Harry seemed to want to say something, Albert raised his hand to interrupt, signaling the other party to listen to him.

"Hagrid was expelled from the school, more because the attack that year killed a student, and someone needs to be held accountable. At that time, Hagrid unfortunately kept a large spider in the cupboard, and he was caught by Riddle. At the time, the big spider was released, so it is normal for him to take the blame, it can only be blamed on him for his own death."

After listening to Albert's words, Harry couldn't help opening his mouth, not knowing what to say. He hadn't even thought about the fact that Hagrid was expelled from the school fifty years ago for this reason.

Harry breathed a sigh of relief after learning from Albert that Hagrid was innocent. In fact, Harry was very worried that Hagrid was the real culprit in the attack, and he really didn't know how to face Hagrid by then.

However, Harry was still a little puzzled. Just when he looked up to ask, he met Albert's gaze and moved his head away involuntarily. Looking at Albert's eyes reminded Harry of the uncomfortable feeling of being seen through when he was facing Snape.

"Don't you suspect Hagrid is the murderer?" Albert looked into Harry's eyes,

He answered all the questions he wanted to ask: "Is it because the attack stopped after Hagrid was driven away?"

Harry nodded stupidly.

"Actually, the answer is very simple." Albert sat on the edge of his bed and motioned for Harry to sit down and talk. "You should have seen in Riddle's memory that the school was in danger of closing because of the attack. The killer of the attack didn't want the school to close because of this, so..."

"so……?"

"So if you find someone to take the crime and stop the attack, this matter will naturally be over." Albert told Harry the cruel truth, "The Ministry of Magic is now repeating its old tricks and taking away the sea. Grid, just want to let Hagrid take the blame, hoping to use this to quell the attack again."

"They know that Hagrid is innocent, how can they do this." Harry was stunned for a while after listening to Albert's words, and his brain was quickly replaced by a full of anger.

"Of course they can, if the sacrifice of an unimportant person can make this matter calm down, who cares?" Albert asked, staring at Harry's eyes, "If you lock Malfoy, you can Let the attack subside, will you?"

If Malfoy was locked up, the attack would be quelled, of course Harry would. As for the truth, sometimes the truth doesn't necessarily matter, but Harry couldn't say it.

"You don't have to try to quibble." Albert waved to interrupt Harry, who was hesitant to speak, and continued: "So, Hagrid, who has a criminal record, is locked up again."

"Just like fifty years ago, they can't catch the real culprit, and the consequences may lead to the closure of Hogwarts school." Albert showed a strange smile, "The Ministry of Magic will also be blamed. , so the Minister of Magic needs someone to take the blame, or he'll be unlucky with him."

"why?"

"This is politics Harry, politics is the filthiest thing in the world, no one." The smile on Albert's face was a bit infiltrating, making Harry feel inexplicably uneasy, "If one day you stand on the Minister of Magic The opposite of it, you'll see what I mean, and trust me, that day won't be too far away."

Harry was speechless, what is this?

"Is this... a prophecy?"

"You can think so." Albert didn't deny it, and continued, "However, don't worry about Hagrid, he won't take the blame again this time."

"Really?" Harry breathed a sigh of relief. He could only believe Albert's words if he wanted to.

"Whether it's Colin, almost headless Nick, or Hermione all saw the basilisk, if you notice the expressions on their faces, it shouldn't be hard to guess that." Albert looked at Harry blankly. The expression, he had to explain: "When the attacked student wakes up, the basilisk will not be able to hide it."

Harry nodded.

"Hagrid would never be able to control a basilisk, and I think Hermione should have told you that the only control of a basilisk is... Parseltongue."

"snake……"

Before Harry's words were finished, Albert was the first to say it again. He was in a panic now, and Albert kept finishing his words, leaving him speechless.

"How do you know that the monster in the Chamber of Secrets is a basilisk?" Harry asked aloud. In fact, he also thought that the monster in the secret room was a basilisk. It's just that Harry felt that if he didn't say anything, he might be suffocated.

"How are you sure it's a basilisk?"

"Yes." Harry nodded.

"The pet spider that Hagrid kept in the cupboard was a monster called the Octopus. They still live in the Forbidden Forest. They're huge and scary. Maybe you heard from Ron that Fred I was almost eaten by those eight-eyed giant spiders with George." Albert's tone stopped, "Sorry, the topic has gone off the track. Hagrid once asked about the spider he kept named Aragog, which was hidden in the school. What is the monster in Hagrid. Well, you don't have to doubt that the eight-eyed spider can speak human words, and Aragog refuses to tell what the monster in Hagrid Castle is, just like everyone is reluctant to mention the name of the mysterious man, it only It is revealed that the monster is the natural enemy of spiders."

"An enemy of spiders?" Harry heard Hermione mention it.

"I looked through the materials in the library and found that the monster that the eight-eyed giant spider is afraid of is the basilisk." Albert glanced at Harry and said to himself, "You probably don't know that the spider's eyes cannot Completely closed, once you encounter a basilisk, you will be killed directly by the eyes of the basilisk."

Harry felt like he had learned a lot today.

"Hermione once told me that you hear sounds that no one else can hear, and you've proven to be a Parseltongue, so that sound is the hiss of a basilisk."

Harry nodded in agreement.

"Everyone knows that the symbol of Slytherin is the snake, and Parseltongue is one of the symbols of Slytherin. If the monsters in the Chamber of Secrets are still alive after a thousand years, then only the Basilisk fits, although this kind of Dark creatures are not common."

Harry has nothing to say, Albert's evidence is very good to prove that the monster in the Chamber of Secrets is a basilisk, in fact he also thinks that the monster is a basilisk.

"Have you already..."

"You want to ask me who the culprit is?"

Harry continued to nod.

He found that the frequency of his nodding was a little high today.

"I can only tell you that this has something to do with the Malfoys." Albert glanced at the wooden door and continued: "Hermione once told me that there was a house-elf that caused you a lot of trouble, and it still looked like You reveal that the most horrific things are going to happen at Hogwarts."

"It's Dobby!"

Harry breathed a sigh of relief, finally being able to speak.

"Lucius Malfoy kicked Dumbledore out of school at this time." Albert speculated maliciously, "it must have something to do with him, otherwise he wouldn't waste so much effort doing it. ."

"Also, house-elves are only found in old manors or castles. The Malfoys are very rich, so it's not surprising that house-elves serve."

"Malfoy wasn't the murderer, we asked him?" Harry said dryly.

"I didn't say he was the murderer." Albert shook his head and said, "Lucius Malfoy wouldn't let his son do that kind of stupid thing, he should have mastered some way to open the secret room, and will do What led to the current attack. As for how? I have some guesses, but I didn't plan to tell you, because even if I told you, you wouldn't believe it."

"How do you know I won't believe it," Harry said stubbornly.

"OK then!"

Albert simply read the closed earplugs to listen, which filled the ears of the eavesdropping people outside the door with an indistinguishable buzzing sound, preventing Ginny from hearing the next words, causing her to give Riddle's diary directly to him. threw.

"Ridel's diary, didn't you find that diary unusual?" Albert reminded, "I know you got it once, and seeing what happened fifty years ago, I can tell you, It's hard for an ordinary wizard to do that, especially with a diary. When the diary was stolen, I suspected that the person who opened the Chamber of Secrets was in Gryffindor House."

"It's impossible!" Harry was speechless in shock, unable to understand how Albert had come to such a conclusion.

"It was Tom Riddle who caught Hagrid," Albert reminded. "You should know that Tom also didn't want the school to be closed, so he took Hagrid as a scapegoat. As long as the murderer was caught, the school would It doesn't have to be closed."

Harry quickly recalled what he saw in Riddle's memory, and had to admit that Albert's words made sense.

"Have you found the location of the Chamber of Secrets?" Harry asked.

"I can guess where the Chamber of Secrets is. However, you need Parseltongue to open the Chamber of Secrets." Albert said mysteriously, "If you're curious, you can ask the student who was killed by the Basilisk, and just We can find the entrance to the secret room."

Harry was confused and didn't understand where Albert wanted him to find someone, and wasn't the person dead?

"She came back as a ghost," Albert reminded. "Did you suspect that I was the murderer?"

"You are indeed suspicious. After all, you are the only one in the school who speaks Parseltongue, but I don't think so. If so, Dumbledore would have found out immediately. After all, you are his savior." Albert shook his head. Said: "Okay, our conversation is over, remember to keep it secret for me!"

"Who do you suspect?" Harry demanded. "Do you already know who was responsible for the attack?"

"It doesn't make sense to tell you, because you won't believe it, just like you don't believe what I just said." Albert shrugged: "Go find it yourself, maybe my guess is wrong."

After speaking, Albert walked to the door and suddenly opened the door.

Hearing an ouch, a group of people fell to the ground.

Harry stared dumbfounded at the group of people who fell to the ground.

"Have you heard enough?"

"Haha, we just..." Fred was racking his brains for an excuse.

"...a little curious," George added.

"I didn't expect you to investigate so many things quietly, and you didn't even want to tell us." Li Jordan tried to divert Albert's attention.

"Did you already know who did it, why didn't you tell Professor McGonagall?" Ron asked in confusion.

"Young man, you are too naive." Albert reached out and patted Ron's shoulder and said, "There is no evidence, it is slander, slander, and even if I say it, you may not be willing to believe it."

"How do you know we don't believe it," Ron retorted.

"If Harry told the Minister of Magic that You-Know-Who was still alive, how would you think he would react?" Albert asked rhetorically after some thought.

"This, he should believe it, Professor Dumbledore also knows..."

"Wrong, wrong, wrong!"

Albert interrupted Harry with three typos, "Unless the Minister for Magic brings a group of people to see that You-Know-Who is alive, people will just think you're crazy and will happily believe you're a lunatic, you It soon became apparent that the Daily Prophet also started reporting that you have a problem with your head."

Looking at the stunned Harry, Albert patted him on the shoulder and said: "So, if I tell Professor McGonagall who is the real murderer of the attack, do you think Professor McGonagall will believe me, or do you think I just Terrified by the attack, a little stimulated, my head started to go haywire."

Both Fred and George couldn't help laughing.

"Everything must be evidenced, otherwise no one will be able to convince anyone!" Albert shrugged: "So, I will not accuse anyone of being the real culprit of the so-called attack in public, it will only make others think that I am a criminal. A mad dog that bites people."

Harry was silent.

Do professors really believe what they say?

It's hard.
