Hogwarts: When the live Q&A goes live

Chapter 94
The unknown is scary.

Especially when you don't know what kind of abilities the monster you are facing has.

The moment he sensed that the monster hidden in the mouth of the Slytherin statue was about to come out, Harry took Hermione's hand and ran towards the passage behind him.

He is reckless, but he is not stupid, nor is he the kind of talent who would risk his life to death.

A gust of wind blew by, bringing with it a sullen hiss.

"I'm so hungry, I'm really...so hungry, I want...to eat..."

To others it sounded like a cold hiss, but to Harry it sounded like another intelligent being talking, especially when it sounded like it was discussing what to eat tonight.

it's hungry!
But right now, it was just him and Hermione in the Chamber of Secrets.

Could it be that the monster following them wanted to eat the two of them as supper tonight?
Harry swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He felt that he and Hermione could save it again. Maybe he could run back to the bathroom and close the mysterious passage again before the monster came out.

By the ear, Hermione's speculation continued.

"I had some doubts before, and these doubts were not answered when I saw Myrtle. Instead, I got more questions."

"I've been thinking, what if the black magic possessed by the myrtle girls wasn't cast on them by the murderer behind the scenes, but just an unintentional influence?"

"At the beginning, I was a little bit against my idea, because it's impossible. Every magic requires a medium, and it also needs to be cast on others according to that person's will."

"But what if apart from the above factors, it was only affected for some reason? Later, I noticed that Filch's cat and Myrtle both became statues in common, that is, they They were not directly harmed by black magic, but were affected by that black magic when they saw something unintentionally."

"Do you know what that means, Harry!"

Hermione said out of breath, talking while running still had some influence on her.

"What does that mean? Hermione!"

Even when he was running, Harry took Hermione's words very naturally and continued to ask.

"This means what I told you at the beginning, we don't want to see it, and avoid contact with it as much as possible until it is not clear what method it uses to make us see it the moment it becomes a statue .”

"But I think we should try to avoid direct contact with it unless necessary, remember? Harry!"

"As I told you before, whether it's Filch's cat or Myrtle, the reason they become statues is because they see what they shouldn't see in the mirror refraction, so the two of them turned into statues."

"You can imagine, just looking through the mirror and accidentally seeing things that shouldn't be seen, turning them into sculptures, what if we looked directly at it? What would the result be like?"

Express your doubts and conclusions in one breath.

Hermione felt a lot lighter.

Fortunately, in this situation, there is still one person standing by her side, isn't there!

The two of them ran forward at top speed, carefully walked through the dark passage for a long time when they came, but it took a lot of time to go back.

Just when the two of them arrived at the entrance of the underground passage, they could go up from this passage at any time.

Suddenly there was a burst of intense footsteps above.

The moment Harry heard the sound of footsteps, Harry was overjoyed. Although Hermione also had a slightly happy expression on her face, she was still a little uneasy in her heart.

She always felt that something was wrong, but Harry had already yelled upwards.

"Professor, is that you?"

As soon as these words came out, the footsteps above stopped, and the surroundings fell into a terrible silence.

Even someone as slow as Harry could react wrongly.

"Professor? Professor?"

He tried to shout a few more words, and when he still didn't give up, Hermione took his hand and shook her head slowly towards him.

Turning his head, the first thing Harry saw was Hermione shaking her head, and the surprise in her eyes.

Immediately, Harry backed up with Hermione.

After the previous footsteps fell silent, they never appeared again.

It seemed that the sound of footsteps had never appeared above them.

Everything was just an illusion of the two of Harry and the others!
But is it possible?
Hermione looked in front of her, wondering if it was the person who opened the chamber of secrets who appeared?
In the previous attack, it was clearly written on the wall that the secret room was reopened.

During that time, they often went to the library to look for books about the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets.

The wand was put back in Harry's pocket, and he trusted the pistols more than the wand in his hand.

He held the black and white guns in his hands. Harry thought for a while, and then actively stuffed the white gun into Hermione's hand.

Hermione glanced at him in surprise, but Harry who turned around grabbed her left hand and walked back to the dark passage.

"It's in your hand, I'm more at ease."

Harry said this to Hermione, and Hermione pursed her lips, holding the gun in her hand without saying a word, and followed Harry back into the dark passage.

The gun and wand in hand can bring them extremely powerful self-confidence.

Confidence is self-confidence, if you can not meet the murderer behind the scenes, that would be even better.

Especially when they have to face more than just the murderer behind the scenes.

There is also that unknown monster, the huge, very long snake-skin-like corpse can be seen in the previous passage.

It is not difficult for people to imagine how huge and terrifying the monster that has never appeared is.

The moment it appeared, it might be a nightmare for them and others.

Moreover, Hermione's previous speculation undoubtedly put a shackle on the hearts of the two of them, making them worry all the time.

Especially Harry, although he didn't say anything, Hermione knew he was scared too.

It was only because of her that Harry kept that worry deep in his heart and didn't show it.

The hiss sounded from far to near, and Harry and Hermione, who were running back, knew that they were about to enter the spacious secret room again.

There are statues of Slytherin, mysterious monsters, and several passages to get out of here.

If they are fast enough, they can leave here through other passages before the mysterious man behind them arrives.

Just a little luck!
