All things are three at Hogwarts

Chapter 113 Mysterious Animal Illustrated Book (Modified)

After returning from a happy night, the Ravenclaws all fell into sleep, and there seemed to be a sweet aroma of candy in their sleep.

But then, the hottest topic at Hogwarts was "The Chamber of Secrets and the Heir." The students talked about nothing else but the attack on Mrs. Norris all day long. Filch's behavior made everyone never forget this incident: he often walked around the place where Mrs. Norris was killed, as if he thought the attacker would come again.

Alan saw him scrubbing the writing on the wall with Skoll's All-Purpose Miracle Stain Remover, but in vain; the writing still shone brightly on the stone wall.

Alan really didn't understand why he didn't ask the professors for help, and Professor Dumbledore allowed this line to stay on the wall. For the little wizards, this is equivalent to being reminded every time they pass by: the secret room has been opened and the school is in danger!

Maybe the professors were too busy to think of this? Whatever the reason, out of caution, Allen did not act without authorization. Currently, this wall has focused the attention of countless teachers and students. He does not want to push himself to the forefront of public opinion in the school, so he must not act rashly.

However, seeing Filch struggling to erase the words and looking so frustrated, Alan still couldn't help but feel pity.

Of course, poor people must also be hateful. If Filch is not patrolling the crime scene, he will hide in the corridor secretly with two red eyes, and then suddenly pounce on the unsuspecting students, trying every possible means to find excuses Put them in confinement and tell them, for example, that they are "breathing too loudly" or that they are "cheerful".

No matter how tense the school atmosphere is, for professors, the daily teaching work is just as it should be, except that the workload is much more than before. Allen guessed that professors probably felt that students were impetuous and wanted to use heavy course load to prevent students from thinking wildly.

However, this did not have much effect. The time the students stayed in the library did indeed increase, and the number of students also increased sharply. However, in addition to homework, the books everyone was looking for were books related to the Chamber of Secrets and the history of Hogwarts.

Alan is the last to leave the library every day. Before leaving, he habitually casts a spell to help Mrs. Pince organize the tables and chairs in the library.

Mrs. Pince told Ellen, "All the inventory of "Hogwarts: A School History" that you have read before has been borrowed." She said, using a large feather duster to clean the bookshelf in the restricted book area, "Register to borrow." People have been waiting for two weeks. This book has never been so popular because it is so thick! I hope these little wizards can take good care of these books and don't doodle."

Allen touched his nose guiltily. He liked to draw while reading. Although he would cast a spell to clear the writing after reading, he was still a little embarrassed to hear Mrs. Pince say this.

"Ahem," Allen cleared his throat, avoiding the dust dusted off by Mrs. Pince, "No, with the spell you cast, no little wizard would dare to risk being exposed to such a heavy book. Dangerous graffiti." With the thickness of "Hogwarts: A School History", a hit on the head should be no different from the damage caused by a brick!

Mrs. Pince looked at Allen suspiciously. If she hadn't been beaten, how could she know so clearly?

Allen shrugged, took out the book he wanted to borrow, and handed it to Mrs. Pince.

"The Encyclopedia of Mysterious Animals?" The librarian, Ms. Pince, is a grumpy, thin woman who looks like a malnourished vulture. She lifted the book, looked at the light, carefully checked the condition of the book, and then skillfully registered the information about Allen's borrowed book.

Push the registration book to Allen and ask Allen to sign his name. "Be careful. This book is a first edition and is very precious. Dumbledore believes that since it is not dangerous, it should be open to young wizards!" Mrs. Pince frowned, obviously not agreeing with the principal's decision. "But don't scribble, let alone damage it!" Mrs. Pince repeatedly warned Allen, her thin body standing upright, her sharp eyes like a hawk, staring at Allen.

Allen repeatedly promised that he would never damage or lose the book, and Mrs. Pince allowed Allen to leave holding the large, square book.

In fact, Alan wouldn't want to take it back and read it if he could, but this book is not suitable for reading in a quiet library. Because it not only has animal patterns, but also uses magic to collect animal sounds in the book. Specifically, whether there is a more magical place, Allen still needs to read and explore it.

Although Mrs. Pince placed this book high and hid it in a remote corner of the bookshelf, Allen read them one by one according to the order of the bookshelf, so he would naturally turn to this book.

After returning to the dormitory, Allen couldn't wait to open the book before Edward came back to sleep. When he opened the book, the first insert connected to the cardboard cover had countless sea snakes of all sizes drawn. Maybe the author likes the image of sea snakes very much! Allen shrugged and continued reading.

Next is a white insert with the author's name and publisher date printed on it. The author of this book turned out to be a French wizard, and the author responsible for the text was Jean-Baptiste de Panaphia. Responsible for the picture department is Camille Jean Visard. The publishing house was founded in 1831 as the Dai Rolle store.

Allen opened the book and read it with relish. This book introduces magical creatures into six aspects: dragons and snakes, four-legged beasts, winged beasts, sea beasts, half-human beasts, and hybrid beasts. It not only introduces text, but also adopts the form of natural history illustrations, which not only shows the whole picture and internal structure of animals: their fur, bones, muscles, internal organs, horns and claws, and even beards and feces, but also allows you to understand how they work. Reproduction, growth, hunting, which area they move in, what species they have, and what skills they have.

The first thing Alan did was to open the book to the page about the basilisk. The first thing I saw was the text introduction, which was not much different from books like "Fantastic Creatures and Where to Find Them", but on the illustration page, the birth process of the basilisk was drawn at the top, and at the bottom was a big snake with a dazzling green body and a head. There is a bright red feather on it. It opened its big mouth, revealing its long fangs, and stared at Allen with its big yellow eyes.

As soon as Allen's eyes met it, he felt his whole body stiffen for a few seconds. A few lines of words appeared on the book, "Anyone whose eyes come into contact with its eyes will be killed instantly."
