Howl's Moving Castle and Hogwarts Castle

In the middle of the breakfast, a large flock of owls huffed into the auditorium.Before, Ji Xing would be amazed by such a sight, but after a month, he has become accustomed to it.

A letter was thrown in front of him, and he pushed his bread in front of the owl delivering the letter, and couldn't wait to open the letter.

*****************************

Dear Ji Ji,

It's great to see you are getting more and more comfortable at school, I think you are living up to your mum's expectations now, you are doing a great job.

Everything is fine at home, and the castle hasn't made any changes this year for Halloween, we've decided to focus on Christmas so you don't miss a thing.

Hearing that you have a cold, I sent you some thick clothes. I hope you remember to wear them when you go out to play outside the castle.Slytherin is always dank and cold in the cellar, you have to remember to dry the room with the magic dust your father gave you.

The things you asked for and the clothes I gave you are all put together by the fireplace at Sev's place. There are a lot of things, you'd better ask a friend to help you take them together. I'm not sure your uncle can kindly deliver them to your room to go.

By the way, your dad sent you something, in a little purple bag, you'll love it.

Mom knows some of your hobbies, but you must do it while ensuring your own safety, and don't put yourself in a dangerous situation.

In addition, Lockhart is your professor. Mom hopes that you will respect him at least on the surface, and don't be impulsive to give others excuses. I have already told your uncle what he is embarrassing you, and he will help you.

Love you, Mom and Dad.

******************************

When Ji Xing saw his mother's reply letter, he knew that his mother already knew his little thoughts.He folded the letter and prepared to go to his uncle after class.

He first remembered yesterday's question, "Draco, what is a squib, you haven't told me yet."

Draco turned his head and saw Ji Xing's face, the expression that I kept asking you if you didn't tell me, helplessly wiped his mouth with a napkin, and explained, "Squibs refer to a person who was born in a wizard family, but has no magic. Abilities. Squibs are the exact opposite of Muggle-borns, though Squibs are rare."

"That's why we support pure blood and promote pure blood. Only by ensuring that the blood is pure can we reduce the occurrence of these situations." Pan Xi interjected, and Draco gave Draco an appreciative look at her words, and Pan Xi blushed immediately.

Ji Xing didn't care about this, he was thinking, no wonder Filch hated students so much, he couldn't use magic but lived in a magical world, and he saw students using magic in front of him all day long.

Although Ji Xing thought so, he also had some sympathy for Filch, but he didn't think Filch was right.There are many things that can be done without magic, but it is clear that people in the wizarding world have magic in their bones. Without magic, they cannot survive.

Ji Xing did not continue to think about this question. Ji Xing continued to think about this question. Ji Xing was not interested in this. What he was interested in was what the secret room in that sentence meant.

But obviously, Draco wouldn't tell him more, so he decided to look it up secretly by himself. First, he remembered that he had read a description of the Chamber of Secrets in a certain book.

Of course, all he had to do in front of him was finish his breakfast quickly and go to the classroom - Draco was already glaring at him.

The transformation class was always easy for Ji Xing. He quickly completed the task assigned by Professor McGonagall, while Giles next to him was still trying to turn the feather in front of him into a quill.

"Oh, damn it!" Giles failed again, changing the color of the feather, but it didn't change the shape at all, "I really want to poke a line of ink out of this damn feather. Ji Xing! You can't Help me?!"

Ji Xing flipped through the book in his hand, and Professor McGonagall allowed him to do some things on his own after completing the task, because he has always performed very well.He answered Giles casually, saying, "You want me to conjure a silver needle for you so you can poke it? I'm not sure that's how quills are made."

Giles turned back impatiently and continued to toss its feathers, but soon he gave up, because the feathers in front of him caught fire quickly, and then turned into dust and were blown away.

Giles finished in frustration, "Why can't I just learn Transfiguration?" He was obviously good at other subjects.

"Probably because you have no imagination?"

"...By the way, what are you looking for, Ji Xing?" Giles looked at Ji Xing holding an old book, the pages of which were turning 'cracking', it was obvious that he was really looking for something rather than looking for something read a book.

"I found... I found it!" Ji Xing held the book a little higher, carefully identifying the messy handwriting on the book.

Giles leaned his head up. The book seemed to be just a diary. The handwriting on it was messy and blurry, and it looked a little old.

"A girl died... They are going to close the school... A Gryffindor student was kicked out of the school..." Ji Xing muttered vaguely while identifying.

This diary was borrowed by him from the library for recreation. It seems to have been left over by a Ravenclaw student 50 years ago. There are many things in it. The student would write some sudden thoughts on it, or surrounding events that occur.Ji Xing likes this kind of exploration process, so he read the book in its entirety.This morning he suddenly remembered that he had seen the secret room appear in this diary, so he found the book.

It's a pity that the book is too old and some content is missing.And that student was not very interested in this back then, so there were very few clues in it.

"What are you talking about?" Giles looked at Ji Xing in confusion, why did he become so weird, that shy boy from before!

"It's nothing." Ji Xing closed the book in his hand, "I think you should practice quickly, Professor McGonagall is watching you."

"Oh!" Giles quickly took Ji Xing's feather and continued to practice. Before that, Ji Xing had perfectly transformed the feather into a quill pen and back into a feather again.

Soon, the Transfiguration class was over, and Ji Xing failed to find any more clues in the diary, so he decided to go to the library to borrow "Hogwarts, A Piece of School History".

"Giles, you go to the auditorium first, I'm going to the library, you tell Draco for me." When the bell rang, Ji Xing hurriedly explained to Giles, and left with his schoolbag in his arms classroom.

When Ji Xing ran to the library, there were no students here yet.The well-behaved Mrs. Peace said hello, and Ji Xing went straight to the back of the library. He knew that "Hogwarts, a School History" was placed here.

He easily got a copy of "Hogwarts, a School History". Ji Xing sat on the long table in the back, turned to the section about the Chamber of Secrets, and read it.

"The founders worked harmoniously together, looking around for young people who showed signs of magic, and bringing them to the castle to train them well... But slowly, there were differences between them...Slytherin and others The rift between them is growing, and Slytherin wants Hogwarts to be more selective in its admissions. He believes that magical education should be limited to purely magical families... He does not want to accept Muggle children, thinking they are unreliable Yes. After some days, Slytherin and Gryffindor had a violent quarrel over this issue, and then Slytherin left the school... Slytherin built a secret room in the castle, and the other The founder knew nothing about it... Slytherin sealed the Chamber of Secrets so that no one could open it until his true heir came to the school... Only the heir could open the Chamber of Secrets and release the horrors inside, Let it purify the school and remove all those who are not worthy of learning magic..." - Excerpt from the original book

Ji Xing closed the book, and now he finally cleared up his thoughts. It turned out that the Chamber of Secrets was like this. No wonder he always felt that Slytherin's position in the school was a bit awkward. He always thought it was because of a big monster. Only then did I discover that it was a problem that existed thousands of years ago.

"Excuse me...can you lend me this book after you finish reading it?" Hermione asked in a low voice. She searched around but couldn't find "Hogwarts, A School History", and everyone borrowed it. .

"Huh? Uh... oh..." Ji Xing handed the book to Hermione Granger, and just as Hermione was about to take the book, Ji Xing took the book back. "Last time... Draco made it to the Quidditch team on his own. He's very good."

"..." Hermione originally wanted to be angry when she saw Ji Xing put the book back, but when she heard Ji Xing mentioning that matter, her face turned a little red. Looking at it, I couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed, "It wasn't... last time, last time I was impulsive... Well, I apologize, for my random... well, I insulted Malfoy..."

Hearing what Hermione said, Ji Xing pursed his lips, and he handed over the book, "Here."

"Oh... oh!" Hermione took the book, "...thank you."

"I think the information you're looking for is on page 257...then, goodbye!" Ji Xing picked up his schoolbag, said goodbye to Hermione, and ran out of the library. He was busy going to the auditorium to finish his meal!
