Chapter 16 The First Attack

In the next few days, all the students were talking about this strange incident, and all kinds of bizarre conjectures became more and more outrageous.Harry was obviously troubled, because he was the only one who heard the strange noise that night, and Ginny tried to look as if she was in a trance, trying to get Ron and the others to notice her unusual behavior and give them a little hint.

The November night was already cool, and the fireplace was already lit in the Gryffindor common room.Since she noticed that Ginny had been a little distracted these days, Hermione specially pulled her over to do homework with them.After finishing the day's homework, Ginny carefully rolled up the parchment, put away the quill, and asked intentionally, "Hermione, is the Mandrake ripe?"

"Not yet, Professor Sprout said it will take a few days to mature." Hermione flipped through the reference book, and at the same time quickly wrote on the parchment, answering Ginny's question.

"Ginny, what's wrong with you? Why do you think of asking when the mandrake is ripe?" Harry stopped his homework and looked up with concern.

"Well, I just want to know when Madam Norris will be able to recover, after all, she looks so pitiful." Ginny said with a disturbed look as much as possible, wringing her hands.

"Ginny, you don't know Mrs. Norris. To be honest, we are more comfortable without it." Ron also looked up from the textbook, biting the pen holder of the quill, with a gloating expression.

"Ron, pay attention to the way you speak." Hermione frowned slightly, looking at him disapprovingly, while he just shrugged and gave Harry a disapproving wink behind Hermione's back.

"But what happened this time is too weird. The Hogwarts Chamber of Secrets, what exactly is this, and who built it? Hogwarts is a school, how could there be such a dangerous place without being recognized by everyone?" Discover? Moreover, such a strange place is more in the style of dark wizards. In the history of Hogwarts, is there any dark wizard with such a powerful ability?" Ginny made a look of thinking hard, throwing A series of questions came up, but what she mainly wanted to do was to get Hermione's attention and ask her to find more relevant information.

"Ginny, why are you thinking so much?" Ron said disapprovingly, "This kind of thing doesn't happen often in Hogwarts, I believe Principal Dumbledore and the others will soon catch the lunatic who caused the accident, Get him out of here. I just hope he has time to petrify Filch before he gets fired." Ron estimated optimistically, while Ginny suddenly paled in cooperation, with a shaky look .

"Ginny, are you okay?" Hermione immediately supported Ginny, and glared at Ron at the same time, "Ron, stop talking nonsense, Ginny will be scared." And Harry also worried Looking at Ginny, at the same time, he secretly pulled the hem of LaRon's clothes, motioning him to shut up.

"I was just talking casually, just as a joke. Ginny, you don't have to be afraid, really, nothing like this will happen again." Ron scratched his head embarrassedly, trying to comfort his little sister.

"I'm fine." Ginny raised her head in a weak manner, "I just feel a little uneasy. I think maybe we can check the history of Hogwarts to see if there are any similar records .”

"Damn, I put "Hogwarts, a School History" at home, otherwise I can check to see if there is any record about it. By the way, I will go to the library to see if there is any record about the Chamber of Secrets. said Hermione, trying to stand up.

"Hermione, it's very late, and the library is probably closed. Moreover, such a dangerous thing may not be recorded in the library. Or, let's just ask Professor Binns, the combined years of his life and death It's a long time. Besides, he teaches History of Magic." Ginny suggested, trying to lead them on the right path.

"Yes, that makes sense." Hermione clapped her hands high, "I'll ask in my class tomorrow to see if I can find any clues."

Next, the three of them started a lively discussion, exchanging opinions and guesses with each other, while Ginny leaned on the sofa and closed her eyes slightly.Just make sure that everything develops according to the original work. I have to say that I am really tired after contributing so much vitality recently, and I feel a little erratic.But it's worth it, her magic power is getting stronger and stronger, and she can master more and more spells. She has even dabbled in many offensive spells and advanced black magic, which gave her a great vision. Big open.Thinking of this, she gave a slight sneer. In this sense, Tom is indeed a good teacher.

While Harry and the three of them were relentlessly searching for the Chamber of Secrets, Tom was quiet for a while, only giving Ginny some instructions on time, but never borrowing her body for any arrangements.Ginny guessed that he hadn't recovered well. He had manipulated her for such a long time last time, and overdrawn too much of his magic power, so he didn't have the energy to take another action in a short time.

Soon it was time for the first Quidditch match of the term.It was a hot and humid Saturday morning. When Ginny followed Ron and Hermione to the dressing room to cheer for Harry, he was obviously a little nervous and was constantly trying to take deep breaths to relax himself.A blush flashed across Harry's face when he saw Ginny walk in, and he greeted them as normal as he could.

Ginny smiled, and stepped forward to give Harry a hug: "Harry, I wish you good luck, I believe you will catch the Snitch and beat Malfoy."

Harry blushed instantly, and George put his arm on Fred's shoulder: "Brother, I'm hurt, our little sister is ignoring our existence."

"Yeah, what a sad and disappointing situation!" Fred winked and said, "Before the game, we didn't get the blessing of Goddess of Luck. What a failed brother we are."

Ron bowed his head and grinned, while Hermione nudged him secretly.Harry was a little at a loss during their teasing, but Ginny rolled her eyes skyward, turned around and gave the twins a hug: "Brothers, come on, I believe you will be more mobile and flexible than Bludgers, Wes Lai must win."

"Okay, little Ginny, wait for our good news." The twins kissed her on one cheek, and then said in a teasing tone, "At the same time, don't worry, we will take good care of your prince. "

Ron finally couldn't hold back his giggles, which made Harry's blush even deeper.Fortunately, at this time, Wood came to summon the team members for the final mobilization before the game, saving Harry from embarrassment.And Ginny and Hermione also pulled Ron out of the dressing room together, found seats in the auditorium and sat down.

Everything that followed made Ginny realize the power of the original book again, the Bludger lost control in the heavy rain, was knocked off the flying broomstick, and Harry whose arm bone was finally taken away by Lockhart.When Harry was finally sent to Madam Pomfrey in the medical wing, Hermione had completely turned from admiration to anger at Lockhart, and kept complaining to Ginny about Lockhart's more helpful ways of dealing with it.

After settling everything and returning to the Gryffindor common room, Colin hurriedly sat beside Ginny: "Ginny, how is Harry doing now, is he better?"

Ginny rubbed her sore forehead: "It should be fine, he's already asleep now, Madam Pomfrey said that he'll be fine after a night's sleep."

"That's good." Colin seemed to let go of his hanging heart, leaned on the sofa, and let out a long breath.Then, he sat up suddenly, staring at Ginny with shining eyes: "Ginny, do you think that if I sneak a look at Harry tonight, will he be very moved, and then let me take a picture of him?" A picture of a single person?"

Sure enough, once again the power of the original plot, Colin will be petrified tonight.After witnessing the situation that has been developing strangely along the direction of the original book, Ginny decided to go with the flow, thus indirectly ensuring the safety of her own destiny development.Therefore, she just nodded: "Be careful of Filch's possible night watch. And, if there is any strange phenomenon, remember to take a picture of it with a camera right away, maybe it can help Harry." She remembered that in the original book, Colin escaped After one calamity, it was because he saw Haierbo's eyes through the lens of the camera that he avoided the consequences of death.

That night, after Tom taught Ginny the lesson, Ginny casually mentioned Harry's situation today and the news that Colin was going to visit him.After Tom heard this, a strange smile appeared on his face: "Colin? Is that the little Muggle wizard you always said was with you all the time, the loyal admirer of the savior Harry?"

"Yes." Ginny nodded, "Colin Creevey, one of my classmates. He always wanted a photo of Harry's autograph, so he always followed me, trying to get closer to Harry."

"What a funny kid, isn't he?" Tom's smile became more mysterious, and when Ginny pretended to concentrate on reading and didn't pay attention to his actions, he cast the Imperius Curse on her again.When Ginny showed a puzzled expression cooperatively, his cold fingertips touched her cheek, his handsome face was a little gloomy, but his voice became softer, whispering to himself: "Harry Potter, Don't try to rob me of my prey, soon, we can solve all problems face to face."

Then, like last time, Tom sneaked to Hagrid's hut first, killed a new rooster he had raised later, and then returned to the main castle, released Hai Erbo, and waited at Colin's entrance to the medical wing. The only way.Fortunately, Colin followed Ginny's advice and immediately raised his camera after hearing the sound of Haierbo moving forward, so he was only petrified.Tom, on the other hand, left the scene in time when he heard footsteps coming downstairs, and calmly returned to his diary.
