Slytherin's salvation is nothingness

"Headmaster Dumbledore, what's wrong?"

Cyrus sat down and called for a glass of water, and Dumbledore stopped beating around the bush: "Cyrus, how much do you know about the Chamber of Secrets left by Slytherin?"

Cyrus tilted his head, "Principal Dumbledore actually risked the lives of the rest of his students to train the savior. That's why I wanted to ask you what you are going to do."

Dumbledore shook his head: "It was not my plan this time, and I really don't know where the secret room is. I just..."

"You are just following the trick? Principal Dumbledore, do you know how much misunderstanding and humiliation this will bring to Slytherin?"

Cyrus paused: "I said I won't interfere with your plan, but I also have my own way. I won't let Slytherin continue to be misunderstood by the world."

Dumbledore nodded silently, "Gellert..."

Cyrus turned his head and said, "He's fine."

The two fell into silence for a long time, and Cyrus finally asked the question in his heart: "Don't you hate it? The greatest deed that is praised by the world is your most painful day."

Dumbledore's eyes were filled with sadness: "It was my fault. If I had stopped him earlier, this wouldn't have happened."

Cyrus was also in a bad mood, "Damn the sense of responsibility. Garrett once told me that fate will always play tricks on innocent people. But once a person makes a certain decision, he is no longer innocent. Maybe you think he I still hate you, but I don’t feel that way…the Vanishing Cabinet in the Room of Requirement, and the other one in Durmstrang.”

Cyrus walked out of the principal's office, but unexpectedly the three Harrys appeared from the invisibility cloaks. "Cyrus, can I talk to you?" Harry was obviously very anxious. Cyrus nodded and led them to an empty classroom.

"Let's talk." Cyrus pulled out a chair and sat down, looking at the hesitant three people. Hermione spoke first: "Cyrus, we are not doubting you, but you know the heir mentioned in those words on the wall..."

Cyrus did not hesitate, "The heir of Slytherin is indeed me, but it is not the monster I released. I'm sorry, I haven't found the secret room yet."

Harry looked at Hermione and Ron and made up his mind: "Cyrus, you can talk to snakes, right? It's a talent only descended from Slytherin, so why... why can I do it too?"

Cyrus was a little surprised at their honesty, how quickly they revealed their true feelings to him. Cyrus patted Harry on the shoulder and said in a serious tone: "I do know Parseltongue, that's just an ability Harry. Dumbledore can also speak more than 20 languages. He can even speak mermaid, so this Does that mean he is also a bad person?

I don't know why you would, but most purebloods are related to each other, and Ron and Draco are related. Okay, you should go back quickly, otherwise you will be caught by the night watch professor and your points will be deducted. "

The three of them were sent away by Cyrus, who was caught just as he was about to cast a magic spell on himself. She was pressed against the wall, "What are you doing here?! Is it really you?"

Snape stared into Cyrus's eyes, but saw a trace of disappointment flash in her eyes. "Headmaster Dumbledore just came to see me, sir."

Cyrus did not dodge, just looking into Snape's black eyes. "...Did you do it? You said before that you would put an end to what happened fifty years ago. Are you going to do it for Slytherin..."

Cyrus withdrew his hand, "It turns out that Professor Snape, who is so steady, will have a panic one day. What are you afraid of?"

She raised her chin and tapped the direction Harry and others were leaving, "Afraid that the savior you protect will be injured?" She stared at Snape's dark eyes as sharp as a knife, not wanting to avoid them.

"I suddenly don't want to help them anymore."

Before Snape could react, Cyrus snapped his fingers, and Kull apparated away with her.

Within a few days, news came out that Hermione had been petrified. The school has also issued martial law, and all students are not allowed to leave the lounge after 6pm and must go with others during class.

Harry and Ron put on the invisibility cloak to go to Hagrid to ask the truth about fifty years ago, but were interrupted by Dumbledore and the Minister of Magic Fudge who suddenly entered. Since Hagrid was originally framed as the person who killed the students, news of the appearance of the monster in the Chamber of Secrets has once again spread in Hogwarts. Fudge could only take Hagrid away again, while Dumbledore tried to stop him.

Unexpectedly, Lucius Malfoy also appeared here. As one of the school directors, he put pressure on others to get the order to suspend Dumbledore. When several people were in a stalemate, a cool voice came.

Cyrus walked into Hagrid's room, "So Hagrid is so popular? Everyone comes to the party." Lucius visibly trembled when he saw Cyrus. Fudge stepped forward and said hello to Cyrus. .

Cyrus looked at Fudge, "Minister Fudge, thank you for coming all the way to Hogwarts to deal with this alarming incident. It's not a good feeling to be wrongly accused as the orthodox heir of Slytherin. I'm here too. Cooperate fully with Principal Dumbledore. You should know that as the principal, you have control over this castle. If Principal Dumbledore is suspended from his job at the critical moment of investigating the Chamber of Secrets - would it be inappropriate? What do you think? , Mr. Malfoy?"

Cyrus walked towards Lucius, "Suspend Dumbledore? Slytherin also recently joined the Hogwarts board of directors. Why didn't I know about this decision?"

Lucius swallowed and hid the suspension order behind his back: "There must be an error in the file processing, Miss Slytherin. Principal Dumbledore and you will definitely investigate this incident and get to the bottom of it."

Then Cyrus looked at Fudge again: "Minister Fudge, you can take the person away. But if the real prisoner is not Mr. Hagrid, then he has been wronged for more than fifty years... Who should he seek justice from? ?Also, who is saying that the reason Salazar Slytherin left the Chamber of Secrets was to clean up the Muggle students in the school? These people who are making up nonsense really think that Slytherin no longer exists?"

Facing Cyrus's pressing step by step, Fudge was also a little at a loss. At this time Dumbledore spoke: "Okay Cyrus, Minister Fudge is also considering the safety of the students. Hagrid, just go with them. I think if Minister Fudge knows that you have been wronged, he will make amends." your."

"Then I won't talk to you any more. Goodbye Minister Fudge. Mr. Malfoy, when this is over, I will visit you at home."

Cyrus glanced at the pale Lucius before leaving, "... Of course... Malfoy welcomes you at any time, Miss Slytherin."

Cyrus did not leave, she was observing quietly not far away. Lucius left quickly, Fudge took Hagrid away, and Dumbledore also left. Later, we saw Harry and Ron wearing an invisibility cloak going to the Forbidden Forest. The invisibility cloak was also an alchemy item full of magic, which was exposed under Cyrus' eyes that could see through the truth.

The spider is not dead yet. It seems that the honest and kind-hearted giant sometimes lies. It is time to collect interest. Cyrus followed the two secretly and witnessed the Ron family's car rushing into the spider swarm to rescue the two. Cyrus stood on the towering tree crown, and the yellow vertical pupil of the small snake hovering in his right ear lit up.

"Go to Venomous Fang and have a good meal. Keep the biggest one and keep it alive." Then the little snake circled and flew out, gradually increasing in size, and a huge giant snake rolled and pounced on the spiders. , Cyrus just stood down and quietly admired the tragic end of the spider group.

Cyrus put away his bulging fangs, snapped his fingers and asked Kull to apparate him to Dumbledore's principal's office. Cyrus sat down, and Dumbledore called out a glass of water and handed it to Cyrus.

"Thank you for your help just now, Cyrus." Cyrus took a sip of water. "It's okay. You can also ask Professor Snape to come over. I will take you to a good show."

Not long after, Snape hurriedly entered the principal's office. He frowned when he saw Cyrus, who was leisurely drinking water. "Headmaster Dumbledore, what's wrong?"

Cyrus stood up and said, "Come on, two professors, follow me." Dumbledore did not move, however.

"Wait Cyrus, we have to wait for another guest." Then under Cyrus's surprised eyes, Salazar walked out of the shadows.

"Father?!"

When Harry and Harry returned to the castle, they found blood writing on the wall again, and Ginny had disappeared. They ran to Dumbledore's principal's office but received no response. Based on the note in Hermione's hand, they deduced that the monster in the secret room was a basilisk. They kidnapped Lockhart, who was about to escape, and went to the bathroom where Myrtle was. Harry used Parseltongue to successfully open the entrance to the secret room, and the three jumped into the dark tunnel.

Because the tunnel collapsed, Ron and Lockhart stayed at the far end of the tunnel, while Harry went alone. Gradually going deeper into the tunnel, the full picture of the secret room gradually emerges. The dark green and silver decoration style is consistent with the decoration style of the Slytherin common room, and a giant-faced statue stands in the center of the vast space.

Under the statue was a pool, and next to the pool Harry saw Ginny lying on the ground. There was a black notebook next to Ginny's hand. There was another male student standing next to Ginny.

Harry rushed to check on Ginny, who was unconscious and unresponsive. Harry recognized the student next to him as the owner of the notebook, and Tom seemed very interested in Harry.

"I really want to know... what allowed a baby with no magical talent to defeat the greatest Voldemort like this."

Harry dodged the wand that was stretched out to him, "What does it have to do with you!" Tom looked at Harry, his eyes full of sinisterness:

"Voldemort - is my past, present, and future."

Then he wrote his name in the air, and with a wave of the wand, the letters flew and rearranged, and he suddenly appeared:

I am lord Voldemort.

"Are you Voldemort?!" Tom obviously didn't want to talk nonsense to Harry anymore. He was gradually absorbing Ginny's life force through his notebook, and soon he would transform from a soul into a physical person.

He spoke snake language to the giant statue of Salazar, and an exit opened in the statue's mouth, and a basilisk emerged from it. He continued to issue attack orders to the basilisk, which immediately rushed towards Harry. Seeing Harry's embarrassed look as he kept dodging, Tom couldn't help but smile sarcastically.

In a corner of the secret room, Fox was being held by Cyrus' wings, with a dagger pressed against Fox's neck. "He is my father's beloved pet. Are you really not afraid that I will roast you with a strong fire?"

Salazar, who was standing in front of her, blocked Dumbledore and Snape's move to help Harry. He said nothing, but he stood in front of the two and refused to give way.

"Cyrus...is this?" Dumbledore's eyes darkened, and Snape tightened his wand, staring at Harry, who had narrowly avoided being hit by the basilisk again and again.

Cyrus looked away from Snape, "The Basilisk's eyes have the ability to stare at people and kill them. If I want to kill him, can he still be so energetic and jumping around? Is this helping Principal Dumbledore?" Experience the Savior.”

Tom also discovered the clue. Why didn't the basilisk use its power to kill Harry immediately? When he gave the command to the basilisk again, the basilisk stopped attacking and looked at him blankly. Just when he was confused, a cold joking voice came from behind him: "Do you really think that just anyone can know how to do it?" Can a man with an accent command a basilisk, Tom?"

Tom turned around and saw the person coming, with a gloomy expression on his face: "What...did you do?!" Cyrus ignored Tom's shouting and walked up to the Basilisk: "Helbo, I'm sorry I'm late. It's so pitiful to be treated like this. It’s weird to take advantage of someone without a nose.”

The basilisk lowered its head, as if feeling guilty. The eyes of the basilisk can actually be controlled by oneself, otherwise Salazar would have been stared to death when he raised them.

Cyrus patted her huge snake head and turned to look at Tom. He seemed to be in a bad mood and frowned, "For his own selfish desires, he distorted Salazar's ideas and even harmed the Hogwarts students he was protecting. You still Damn it.”

"Nonsense! Salazar Slytherin has always been a fan of pure blood. He left the Chamber of Secrets just to clean up those Mudbloods in Hogwarts!" Tom didn't know whether he was delaying time or defending.

Cyrus picked up the notebook on the ground. When Tom saw this, he immediately tried to snatch it away but was knocked away by the basilisk. Cyrus flipped through it casually, "Besides, what serious person still writes a diary these days?"

Blue flames appeared in his hand and burned the diary, and Tom's body was immediately burned by the fire. The screams echoed throughout the secret room and gradually weakened. As the notebook in Cyrus' hand was burned to ashes, Tom's body disappeared.

"This is not a fairy tale. How can there be a plot where a brave man goes through all kinds of hardships and embarks on the road to slay the dragon. All the delays are just a lack of strength."

Cyrus looked at Harry. He was still holding Ginny, but his left hand was deformed and twisted. "Harry, your hand is broken? How about I help you pick it back up? I'll be very gentle if nothing happens..."

"what!"

Harry's scream came, and Fawkes flew out of nowhere and landed on Harry's shoulder. Before leaving, he glared at Cyrus and the Basilisk in a very humane manner.

Cyrus turned to look at Halpo, "Do you two have a grudge? It doesn't want to see us." Halpo also shook his head in confusion.

"The phoenix and the basilisk have been natural enemies since ancient times."

Salazar's voice rang out, and he emerged from invisibility together with Dumbledore and Snape. When Haierbo saw Salazar, he surrounded him very affectionately. Salazar also showed a smile and patted its huge body.

Dumbledore observed secretly, and then laughed at the side: "So she is the friend you left in the secret room. What is her name?"

Salazar didn't seem to like Dumbledore and had always ignored him. Cyrus spoke to ease the embarrassment: "Her name is Haierbo."

"Herbo... the most vicious dark wizard in ancient Greece, is really..."

Cyrus: "Naughty name, isn't it?"

Salazar: "It's just a bad joke."

Snape: "What a bad taste."

Dumbledore: These three Slytherins...

Then Cyrus released the fangs and introduced Halpo, "Helpo, these are the fangs." Snape looked at the two huge and extremely dangerous basilisks in front of Cyrus like two perverse pets. It turned out that Are the earrings she always wears such a dangerous basilisk...

Dumbledore regained his composure and looked at Cyrus: "Well, Mr. Slytherin suddenly appeared in the principal's office a few days ago. But he didn't seem to want to answer any of my questions. Cyrus, you..."

Cyrus looked helpless. She looked at Salazar. Salazar seemed to be having trouble too. In addition, he left without telling Cyrus. She didn't know how to face her daughter's gaze.

But suddenly he was hugged tightly, and Cyrus said softly: "Father, welcome back." Salazar touched Cyrus' head with a gentle expression:

"Well, I'm back."

"Principal Dumbledore, and Mr. Snape, we will go to the principal's office to meet you in a moment. Now I have something to ask my father."

Dumbledore listened to what Cyrus called Salazar, and although he was confused, he left with Snape.

"Father, have you found them?"

Cyrus kept holding Salazar, feeling she had to. Salazar showed no resistance, "Found them, they are gone."

Salazar said Cyrus's speculation in an indifferent tone. In fact, Cyrus also knew that the other three would not not return to his beloved Hogwarts if they were still alive, but he was just taking a chance. She didn't want to see her father alone again,

"Father, you and I, and Hogwarts."

"Ah."

When Cyrus returned to the principal's office with Salazar, Cyrus was hugged by a figure as soon as he appeared.

"Cyrus, long time no see!"

"Gellert?! Why are you here too? Has the vanishing cabinet been repaired?"

"Come and see my daughter, can't you?"

Salazar next to him pushed Grindelwald away with a look of disgust, and the two of them began to confront each other again.

Cyrus didn't want to care about them at all. Instead, he looked at Dumbledore, who was looking depressed: "It seems you know everything."

Dumbledore nodded, his face full of guilt. "Yes, Gellert told me. Whether you care or not, I have to apologize to you. I'm sorry, kid, we missed your entire childhood..."

Cyrus sat down and picked up a piece of sizzling honey candy in front of Dumbledore and ate it. "Sir, are you back?"

"He saw that the incident had been resolved and went back."

"Hmph! I've long disliked that boy." Grindelwald, who was quarreling with Salazar, changed the subject, and even Salazar nodded.

"That boy also suspected that my heir would do something to harm students."

"Okay, you two, I think Cyrus likes his professor very much, doesn't he?" Dumbledore said, and Grindelwald and Salazar cast murderous looks one after another.

"Well, I probably like him, I don't know." Cyrus didn't understand how he felt about Snape. The time he spent with his husband was particularly wonderful.

"However, what you did in the secret room really scared me." Cyrus touched the earrings with an innocent face, "You mean Halbo trained Harry? Halber has long been old and has always relied on the school's support. Mouse lives on. If I call Venomfang on, he'll break more than just his arm. He won't die, it's just a little exercise. Don't think I don't know that you plan to let Fawkes take Gryffindor's sword. Give it to him, why, isn’t Haierbo’s life life?”

The two Slytherins present looked at Dumbledore and said with disgust: "Damn Gryffindor." Grindelwald watched with gloating.

That night, after his night watch, Snape returned to his office but could not open the door. Medusa, who was guarding the office door, said that the owner of the castle would not let her open the door to Snape, no matter how threatened. Snape was so angry that he broke the door violently, and a curse broke the door. After entering, the herb cabinet instantly ignited with blue flames, burning all the herbs in the room in an instant.
