Hogwarts: When the live Q&A goes live

Chapter 51 Cedric Asking for Help

"Who?"

Levi's, who was walking forward, stopped and looked back in surprise.

"Tap Tap"

There was a sound of footsteps, but no one was seen.

The footsteps appeared abruptly, but Levi who reacted did not hear where the footsteps came from.

When he turned around and saw only an empty corridor, he turned around and looked around cautiously.

"Fractured."

A spell of light flashed, and Levi, who sensed something was wrong, hid to the side, and then looked at the source of the sound.

But the speed of his turning his head was obviously not as fast as that of the man hiding in the dark, and he only saw a trace of the wizard's robe in the corner of his eyes.

At the same time, the wand in his hand threw a spell behind him at an extremely fast speed.

Smoke and dust flew up, obscuring their vision.

Levi walked behind him cautiously.

There seemed to be no one around, but it was really silent.

All he could hear was his own panting and the sound of his beating heart.

The smoke and dust gradually dissipated, and the figure just now disappeared. He didn't take it lightly because of this, but still solemnly walked forward with his wand in hand.

After walking for a while, he couldn't help speeding up his feet as he still wasn't attacked.

Coming to the Shuangchakou here, the corridors on both sides are pitch black, and nothing can be seen.

Here, Levi's hesitated.

He didn't know whether he should go on or not.

Facing this dangerous place, Levi thought for a while, then turned back.

Walking all the way to the girls' bathroom, the Myrtle who would have been in the girls' bathroom was gone.

I don't know where she went again.

Levi walked to the sink, stretched out his hand and touched under the faucet, and sure enough, he felt some prominent places.

If you feel it carefully, you will know that these prominent positions are connected together to form a small snake.

As he expected, the specific location of the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets did not change.

Unfortunately, he is not a Parseltongue, so he cannot open this passage.

Feeling the carving of the little snake hard, Levi walked away and began to check the surrounding situation.

He held his wand and leaned aside.

Whenever a door is opened by him, his wand will quickly point to the toilet.

Once there is someone inside, what awaits that person will be Levi's merciless stun spell.

The toilet doors were opened one by one by him, and Levi was a little relieved that there was no one inside.

When he opened the last door, out of the corner of Levi's eyes, he saw some myrtle girls who had been floating in the air.

Suddenly his face became stiff.

Myrtle's wide-eyed, terrified expression seemed to tell that she had experienced something unknown.

Her body is stiff, and she should be a ghost. She should not be able to touch anyone, including any objects.

But now, she maintained this terrified expression, her body circling in mid-air.

Levi's reached out his hand, he had some luck, but when his fingers touched the wizard robe on Myrtle, those luck disappeared without a trace.

His hand touched Myrtle's body, and it was self-evident what that meant.

Reeves didn't think Myrtle could be as special as Peeves.

"The plot changed because of... me?"

In the original book, Myrtle was never attacked.

Although it feels ridiculous, it is actually the case. Myrtle, who has been hovering at the entrance, perfectly avoids every trip of the basilisk.

But now, apparently, her luck is not good enough.

Levi turned his head and looked over from Myrtle's line of sight, just in time to see a small pool of water reflecting the moon.

And this also made him almost understand what happened.

It should be when the basilisk came out, Myrtle just opened the toilet door and met the eyes of the basilisk in the pool, and was instantly petrified.

Maybe it's just a reaction.

Look at the frightened expression on Myrtle's face, and some of her movements.

It can be deduced that Myrtle saw the basilisk from the pool as soon as she opened the door, and she should want to continue hiding while she was afraid.

But as soon as she made some movements, she was already petrified.

Levi took two steps back and closed the door with a solemn expression.

Then he used his magic wand to clean the toilet door in front of him once, eliminating his traces here.

He didn't see Ginny Weasley, maybe she had already left under control, or maybe she was waiting nearby for him to come out of the bathroom.

He took two steps back, the moonlight shone on his face, reflecting his profile.

Without too much hesitation, Levi covered the invisibility cloak on his body again, and then he was about to leave here.

But before he could make the next move, there was a sound of footsteps outside the bathroom.

Levi's was startled, and hurried over to get out before anyone outside came in.

But the moment he walked to the door, the first thing he saw was Dumbledore's blue eyes.

At this time, Levi's was really nervous.

He didn't expect that Dumbledore would come here in person. He thought that even if Cedric asked for help, it would only be a few professors.

Levi, who hastily stepped aside, didn't notice Dumbledore's insignificant glance.

After Dumbledore walked in, Cedric, Professor Snape, Professor McGonagall, and Lockhart walked into the bathroom together.

"Is it here?"

"It should be here, Professor!"

Cedric stood up. He was a little anxious, silently watching the place where someone might be hiding in the bathroom.

On the way to leave, he happened to meet Professor Snape, who was unusual at night, and then he told Professor Snape what he had encountered.

Of course, for some reason, he hid some things.

Just tell him that there is another person who got separated from them.

But what I never expected was that Dumbledore and several other professors would arrive soon.

Cedric now only wants Levi to hide in the bathroom, or leave this place.
