A Magical Journey Starting at Hogwarts
Chapter 168 The true heir
Harry stood on the ring, surrounded by strange looks.
He didn't understand what he had done wrong. He obviously saved Justin, but instead of being grateful, the other person's face was full of anger and panic.
Before he could react, Ron tugged on his robe under the ring, "Let's go first! I think we have to hurry up."
Harry walked down the stage in silence, and the students retreated to both sides, as if they regarded him as some kind of terrifying beast.
"Parseltongue." Draco said angrily, looking unhappy, "Harry Potter is actually a Parseltongue."
"Calm down, it's just that you can speak the language of snakes. There are people like this in the magic world." Aaron looked thoughtfully at the two people walking out of the auditorium, with a glimmer of excitement in his eyes.
He found that his search for Slytherin's heir had fallen into some misunderstanding and made a particularly simple mistake.
This person may not be the person he thought to inherit Salazar Slytherin's legacy, but his blood descendant.
This is most likely true. The monster in the Chamber of Secrets is a basilisk, and Salazar Slytherin's descendants also inherited his ability to speak Parseltongue.
He can communicate with snakes without any barriers and order them to do things, which is simply the best combination.
“Aaron, you misunderstood me.
Parseltongue was the skill of one of the founders, Salazar Slytherin, but now it is Gryffindor who possesses this ability.
Harry Potter is not worthy of possessing this ability at all, and so many people in the auditorium must have regarded him as the heir of Slytherin. He may not be so proud of himself! "
"I don't think so, his expression just now didn't look fake.
It might just be a coincidence that he can speak Parseltongue. You don't think that Harry Potter will be the heir of Slytherin, do you? "
Draco thought for a while and said solemnly: "I don't think so. At least the heir of Slytherin will not mix with Muggle-born wizards."
"Then it's over. Harry just happened to know Parseltongue." Aaron didn't take it seriously. He could also speak Draconic, so he wasn't proud of it.
"What are you talking about?" Hermione came over and asked.
"It has nothing to do with you, Granger." Draco raised a sneer on his lips, "You'd better be careful, Harry Potter is the heir of Slytherin.
Do you think he will release that monster and let it..."
"Draco." Aaron gave him a warning look, "She is my good friend, and your words will not have any effect on her."
"I'm just scaring her." Draco said angrily, and then called Crabbe and Goyle out of the auditorium.
Hermione leaned against the edge of the ring, carefully groping for something with a few fingers behind her back.
Harry's spell just now was still effective, and Draco happened to lose a few hairs when he fell out, which were the ingredients for the last polyjuice potion.
"Um...Aaron, I have something to ask you." Hermione tried to keep her expression as calm as possible, "Are you very busy recently?
I don't mean anything else, I just rarely see you after class. "
"Absolutely, but it's not just you, Draco is also like this." Aaron said helplessly, "There is a complicated matter, and I need to spend some time.
But thanks to Harry, I have a new idea, which can save some energy. "
"Do you need my help? If you need an assistant, I can..."
"This is not a good idea." Aaron smiled and shook his head, "Thank you for your kindness, but you can't help me, and I don't want you to get involved."
After saying that, he walked towards the side door.
"Wait a minute." Hermione mustered up her courage and stood in front of him, "Tell me, what are you doing?"
Aaron looked directly into Hermione's eyes, hesitated for a moment and then said: "Well, if I must say it, I am protecting this school in a low-key manner.
You have to keep it secret, and only you know it at the moment. "
Hermione's heart sank slightly, and she subconsciously clenched the golden hair in her hands, "Then I won't disturb you in such a great cause."
Aaron returned to the Slytherin dormitory. He first lifted the Disillusionment Curse and checked whether the two roosters in the cage were in good condition.
This is something he must do every day. Before finding the enemy in the dark, these two amulets must not be lost.
He then lifted the green curtains on the wall to reveal the wall of clues he had compiled.
Compared with the sporadic clues before, there are now a lot more names on it, but more than half of them have been marked with a black line.
These are all excluded objects, first of all, Muggle-born wizards, who cannot be the heirs of Slytherin, and secondly, some mixed-blood and pure-blood wizards, who usually have good social relations and have nothing abnormal.
One of the remaining people must be the heir of Slytherin. Originally, we had to use the elimination method to check slowly, but now there is one more clue that can speed up the progress. In addition to Harry Potter, the Parseltongue.
The heir will definitely not expose himself, but family background cannot always be concealed. As long as it is related to Slytherin, it is possible. He may be pure blood, or he may be mixed blood, or even mixed blood is more likely. Some.
"Interesting, really interesting." Aaron smiled and stroked the dragon, "Abe, this is such a big project!
If conditions don't allow it, I really want to conduct a census, which may be able to narrow the number of suspects to less than ten. "
Meanwhile, in the Gryffindor common room.
Ron and Hermione told Harry about the history of Parseltongue, which made him have some self-doubt.
Because he can hear the sounds of monsters in the secret room before they kill, the Sorting Hat also suggested that he go to Slytherin during the sorting last year, and he is also a Parseltongue that is unique in the wizarding world.
Taken together, these factors make him look like the heir of Slytherin.
But he really wasn't. He knew very well that he didn't order the monster in the secret room to do anything. He didn't even know what the monster was.
But the problem is that everyone doesn’t think so. Salazar is a figure who lived for more than a thousand years, and his bloodline has not been cut off. Even Harry is not sure whether he is Salazar’s great-great-great-grandson, because he has no doubts about himself. The Potter family is almost unknown.
The next day, the Transfiguration Classroom.
This semester's Transfiguration class has been completed, and Professor McGonagall has nothing to say, so he simply lets everyone make their own arrangements.
But many people didn't read or write, they just stared at Harry Potter and whispered from time to time.
Feeling the strange eyes again, even though he was mentally prepared, Harry still felt particularly aggrieved.
Perhaps only Ron and Hermione across from him in the entire classroom could understand him, but the comfort of these two people was insignificant compared to most people's doubts.
The depression in his heart made him close the book directly, "See you in the common room later."
Ron and Hermione could only give him a forced smile. They couldn't dissuade him. They couldn't let Harry feel the strange looks from other people!
As soon as he walked out of the classroom, Harry heard the voice again, as if it was coming from the wall.
He walked quickly in the direction of the sound, and around a corner he found a ghost floating in mid-air. It was Nick, who was almost headless.
His eyes widened in horror, his body turned black, and faint green smoke came out of his broken neck, which had only a crack.
Besides him, there was another person lying on the floor.
Justin Finch-Fletchley, that Hufflepuff student, is a Muggle-born wizard.
At this moment, he was in the same state as Nick, also motionless, with eyes wide open in fear.
Harry couldn't help but swallow, his breathing became rapid, and he was at a loss for a moment.
"I wouldn't stay here if I were you."
A familiar voice came from behind. Aaron held Abe and looked at this scene with some regret.
"Why are you here?" Harry asked nervously.
Aaron looked at Abe in his arms, a hint of complaint flashed in his eyes.
These days, he doesn't just spend his energy on solving cases, he also doesn't fall behind in practicing the magic circle.
He can complete the basic magic circle in one second without using any medium, but if he wants to succeed in an instant, he still needs continuous practice.
The time it took him to carve the intermediate-level magic circle was also greatly shortened, from half a minute three months ago to three seconds now, and with the accumulation of his own magic energy, the power became a bit more powerful.
But he has not yet made any breakthroughs in the advanced magic array. The array diagram, core, and magic input are all much more complicated.
Aaron knew that he had to eat one bite at a time, and becoming stronger was also a step-by-step process, so he practiced advanced magic circles according to the previous methods.
Just now, he was drawing a complicated and advanced magic circle on the paper, but when he was making the last stroke, Abe suddenly heard the sound of the basilisk.
It jumped on the table when it got excited, and ten minutes of hard work was ruined.
But his own dragon cub should be pampered when it should be pampered. After confirming that the basilisk left, he followed it over.
"It's a coincidence, Harry."
Harry's eyes twitched, hiding his suspicion well.
"Why are you here?"
"Um...this is also a coincidence. I originally planned to go back to the common room."
"Really? It happens to be me too.
I suggest we get out of here first. "
"What about them?" Harry pointed at Nick and Justin, "We can't just ignore them!"
“Someone will take care of it, it doesn’t have to be us.
Listen to me, let’s get out of here quickly, otherwise..."
"Caught in action."
A cold voice appeared at the entrance of the corridor. Filch looked at the two men gloomily, his eyes lingering on Aaron for a moment before settling on Harry.
"I will definitely fire you this time, Potter, remember what I said."
"No, Filch, that's not the case." Harry said anxiously, but Filch did not stop and left the place decisively.
"Otherwise something like this would have happened." Aaron held his forehead and shook his head speechlessly. If he had known better, he would not have persuaded him. If he had left directly, it would not have been so troublesome.
