[HP] Sheep with soy sauce

35 The crisis faced by the lamb 【Catch】

Rui Yi and Qiu sat in the empty classroom, both of them were sweating profusely, and a notebook with a black cover was spread out in front of them. And no other text.

Rae and Cho's hands had been clasped—which gave them an unusual white tinge.After a while, Qiu Cai stammered and said, "It's just like what you saw..."

"Let's, let's reorganize our thoughts, shall we?" Rui shook her dizzy head, she was still immersed in the scene shown in the diary just now. "We, talk to a diary in words. And this diary shows us an unknown image—"

"It's memory—"

"Of course not, Cho!" Rey categorically denied. "A diary has no such thing as a 'memory', even if it's a magic item. Oh yes, of course it is." She snapped Closed the diary, "And this image tells us that one day many years ago, the owner of this diary, Tom Riddle, saw Hagrid keeping an acromantula in the closet. And this acromantula The spider may have killed a man."

"It did kill." Qiu said hastily, "Didn't you hear what Tom said, it killed a girl."

"Okay, Cho, what evidence do you have?" Rui pulled his hand out of Cho's sweaty hand, "Even if this memory has not been falsified, there is nothing in it that can prove that it was Hagrid's son. spiders kill people."

"Tom he..."

"It's just a diary, Cho." Rae began to fold her arms. "A magic item, that's all. It's made, not a living person. Even a person wouldn't People can lie if they can be completely believed.”

"Myrtle, it's Myrtle." Qiu was eager to prove his statement, "The one who was killed was Myrtle."

"How do you know?" Rey was very surprised, "I don't think Myrtle would take the initiative to tell you such a thing, would she?"

Cho is silent, much to Rae's exasperation.She began to pack her schoolbag and prepare to leave: "Listen, Cho, I don't know why you are so willing to believe what a diary says. I always think it is not so believable. Where did you get it?"

"In Ginny's book." This time Zhang Qiu answered very simply, "In Diagon Alley, I dug it out of Ginny's cauldron, thinking it was one of her textbooks."

Rey looked at the diary with scrutiny: "I don't think the Weasley family will pass this kind of thing - if there is such a magical magic item, it would have been dismantled by the twins long ago.

"I thought about it too, but..." Qiu hesitated for a while, "What should we do?"

"Being stuffed with an unhappy memory in my head for no reason, I think the best solution now is to go to the kitchen and have some hot drinks." Rui picked up his schoolbag and picked up his diary: "You better Take it to the professor to check it out. Fred said that some magic items have hidden curses, which can easily trick you. Actually, I think the magic items might be put to better use if given to the twins, maybe they will Inspired to make a mirror that communicates? Like 'Snow White'."

Qiu hesitated again, and Rui Yi was a little impatient: "Qiu, did you listen to me?"

"Well... I, I will give it to them." She snatched the diary suddenly, "But after a while." After speaking, she turned and ran out of the classroom.

"Don't forget to check with the professor!" Rui chased away, but Qiu had already turned up the stairs, panting and chasing one floor, but she couldn't catch up, so she could only stamp her feet in anger.

Back in the common room, everyone was talking about the new Professor Lockhart.Many girls have a crush on the handsome Lockhart, so, in contrast, he has a bad reputation among boys.

"The new semester is full of energy." Rey sat next to Cedric, throwing her schoolbag on her lap. "They should really let them deal with those disgusting ghouls."

"People will always be deceived by beautiful appearances." Cedric said helplessly, "But the process from beautiful to ugly perception is undoubtedly the most painful process."

"So profound?" Rui twitched the corners of his mouth, "You and Qiu have been acting weird lately, one acts mysteriously, and the other speaks mysteriously."

Cedric put down the book in his hand: "What's the matter? What happened to Qiu?" Rui told Cedric about the diary in a low voice. "That's it. Qiu snatched back the diary. I don't know when the professor can check it."

"There are indeed many cases where the hidden curses of magic items hurt wizards. We need to remind her more." Cedric also agrees with Rey's point of view. "However, I am very concerned about the video you watched...is it related to Hagrid?"

"Yes, it's the thing we checked before." Rui nodded, "I was also thinking when I came back, isn't it related to spiders? If that video is real, then the reason why Hagrid was killed by Hogg Watts was fired because of the acromantula, but Cho said it had something to do with Myrtle—I think she meant that Myrtle was the girl who was killed?"

Cedric thought for a moment. "Maybe we should ask Myrtle."

"She has a bad temper." Rey has been there several times since the last confrontation with Myrtle, but every time she was splashed with water by Myrtle, "and her attitude towards girls is special. not good……"

"Go and see," said Cedric, "always ask."

Peeves is scaring a first-year Hufflepuff at the door when the two arrive at Myrtle's ladies' room.The little girl named Hannah Abbott (coincidentally, she was assigned to Rui Yi's dormitory, where there was just one empty bed) bumped into Rui Yi with a crying voice, and then ran away screaming.

"Coward! Crying bag!" Peeves chased after throwing chalk ends, while Myrtle cried loudly in the toilet: "Oh, come to my place... hiccup! Nasty Peeves... boss There is no way to get rid of you... hiccup!"

Rey and Cedric looked at each other, and Rey boldly walked over: "Hi, Myrtle...how are you?"

Myrtle turned over on the ceiling, and suddenly flew in front of Rui with a "whoosh": "Why are you here again?" Her tone became complicated and stiff again: "Yes, come and see Me, eh? Laugh at me, eh?"

"I am, Ray Wood." Ray cleared his throat and stretched out his hand, "We can... get to know each other formally."

Myrtle went straight through Rie's body, and the discomfort of being submerged in ice water made Ry's scalp explode. "It's nothing, you and I don't need to get to know each other well. You, this boy! This is the girls' toilet, why are you here?"

Cedric seemed a little at a loss: "Uh...I, I'm Cedric Diggory, how are you, Myrtle."

Rui quickly took a step back and stood with Cedric: "I brought him, Myrtle, he is my friend." She thought for a while and then said, "We came to see you."

Myrtle tilted her head to look at them, and suddenly let out a sharp and miserable laugh: "Hahahahahaha, someone came to visit me, to see me, a pale, empty ghost, hahahahaha—"

She laughed and cried again, flushing herself down the toilet.

"Emmmmmmmmm," Rie shrugged awkwardly, "you see... that's it."

Cedric pondered for a moment, walked slowly towards Myrtle's toilet, and asked cautiously: "We won't bother you for too long—if you don't want us to appear—may I ask you a few questions?"

The only silence in the toilet was the sound of dripping water, and Rui Yi's patience was exhausted little by little.Suddenly, a pearly white figure rushed out of the toilet, splashing a large amount of water.Myrtle spun frantically on the ceiling for more than a dozen times with water droplets before slamming on the brakes in front of them: "Okay, tell me, what do you want to know?"

"We want to know how you..."

"We want to know if you know Tom Riddle?" Cedric interrupted Ree, and took Ree's hand to signal her not to speak.Myrtle took a strange look at Ree who hadn't finished speaking: "I've heard of his name before, he is a top student in Slytherin. Of course, with someone like me..." She seemed to be About to cry, Rui quickly shouted: "Spider! Have you ever seen a spider!"

This stopped Myrtle from shedding pearly white tears, and she sobbed, "Of course! The castle is full of spiders, oh, Peeves used to tease me with spiders..."

"Extremely large ones, have you ever seen them?" Cedric asked, "For example——Sacron spiders or acromantulas."

"Those are forbidden things, how could they appear in the castle?" Myrtle looked at Rey with some contempt, "You must get a T in the history of magic."

"One last question." Rui glanced at Cedric, and Cedric asked without hesitation, "Excuse me...what happened in this toilet 50 years ago?"

As if held in place by a spell, Myrtle stared at them from behind her large, thick bottle-bottomed glasses.Rui was stared at coldly, even if it didn't pass through her body, the hairs stood on end.Myrtle rushed into the tank, and only the voice came: "Yellow! Deadly, disgusting yellow!"

After walking out of Myrtle's washroom, both of them wiped off their sweat at the same time.Rui let out a long breath: "It seems that Myrtle is indeed the person who died 50 years ago."

"But what does that prove?" Cedric shook his head. "At the end I thought she must be very angry."

"It's a good thing you stopped me from asking stupid questions like how she died." Rey patted her chest, "She's always emotionally unstable, oh, I often ignore that. But we You can know that Hagrid did not kill her, and there is not a single part of the acromantula that is yellow."

"That was what killed her. We asked for a long time, but we came back to the original point." Cedric fell into deep thought again, and suddenly had an idea: "Why don't we start with Tom Riddle. Find information about this person. In short , solve the diary problem first, and focus on autumn first."

"Okay, then I'll go to Fred and George to find a way. They know Hogwarts very well and can help a lot." The first thing Rui Yi thought of was the twins. It's kind of a jack-of-all-trades function.Cedric smiled knowingly: "Yes, of course. But let's forget about today, it's almost time to turn off the lights-I don't want you to be arrested and locked up, Rui." He said softly.
