This Hogwarts isn't normal.

Vincent was lying on the bed, next to him were Fred and George's big faces. ♦♦  ♦♦

"Wow~ I didn't expect there would be a basilisk in the school--"

"Although it's unlikely, I always feel that it was bred by Salazar Slytherin."

Rolf was silent for a moment, "Basilisks can live for 900 years, but if it's Slytherin, it might be increased by one or two hundred years."

Hermione was lying on another bed, her little face was red, and smoke was constantly coming out of her ears.

"Did Professor Dumbledore say anything?"

"Yes, he thought the basilisk might have come out of the Chamber of Secrets."

Vincent's words scared Rolf again.

"What's wrong? Do you know the Chamber of Secrets?"

"Yes." He lowered his voice, "This is what my grandfather told me, I have always regarded it as a legend..."

Among the four founders of Hogwarts, Slytherin was the most hostile to Muggles.

So to enter his college, the minimum threshold is to be of mixed blood.

After a quarrel with Godric Gryffindor, he realized the differences between himself and the other three founders.

The more Muggle-born students there were, the more likely it was that the wizarding community would be exposed.

Legend has it that before leaving the school, Slytherin built a chamber of secrets under the dungeons of Hogwarts.

A special creature was placed inside, and when the chamber of secrets was opened again, it would purify the entire school and eliminate the Muggle-born students.

"Dungeon?" George immediately spread out the Marauder's Map. "How did the basilisk get through the hall to the third floor?"

Rolf shook his head. "This is just a legend my grandfather heard. Maybe the Chamber of Secrets is not in the dungeon. Maybe there are many secret passages in the castle that are not drawn on the map.

The twins firmly believed in the second guess.

After their occasional tests, they can be sure that the four makers of the map are also students.

It is impossible to have no omissions, after all, even Dumbledore doesn't know where the Chamber of Secrets is.

Vincent looked at the empty third floor on the map. "Now we can confirm that there is a basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets, and it was cultivated by Salazar Slytherin himself."

Hermione, who had a slight cold, felt particularly cold even though her body was warm.

She clutched the thick quilt covering her. "Professor Dumbledore will definitely find it."

"Yes, yes." The twins nodded. "Basilisks and the like are no match for our headmaster."

"I hope so. "Vincent sat up and picked up the dinner beside him.

Boiled chicken breast, vegetable salad, mashed potatoes...

He looked at Cedric eagerly.

"Don't look at me like that, the banquet is about to end."

"Can't you go to the kitchen and make something delicious?"

Cedric raised his little face, "You are a patient now, so you should eat light food."

"Stingy." Vincent forked a piece of chicken breast.

It tasted light and was extremely dry.

He handed a piece to Fawkes, who turned his head away without even looking at it.

"Is this something I can eat?"

"Of course." Hermione's dinner was the same as his, "Lavender and the others eat this almost every day."

"I don't need to lose weight." Vincent, with tears in his eyes, wrapped a few pieces of vegetables with chicken breast and mashed potatoes.

The taste improved, but the taste didn't change at all.

This dinner broke his record.

3 minutes and 21 seconds.

He put the tray down, and Dumbledore walked in.

"How are you? "

"Much better."

Under the gaze of six pairs of curious eyes, Dumbledore told what happened just now.

As expected, the basilisk disappeared.

No trace, as if it had never appeared.

He did not doubt Vincent and Hermione, and searched room by room.

No clues were found, but a victim was found.

Myrtle in the girls' bathroom was petrified, and two lines of words were left on the wall:

The Chamber of Secrets has been opened.

Those who are enemies of the heir, beware.

"Great!" Cedric was delighted.

"Ahem--" He put on an innocent face to Dumbledore, "Professor, they are the ones who taught me bad things."

"Traitor!"

Dumbledore smiled, "This clue is very important. I already know who opened the Chamber of Secrets fifty years ago. "

Vincent began to connect everything.

The reason why Hagrid was expelled was probably because the Chamber of Secrets was opened at that time.

He was so "tight-mouthed", the person who actually opened the Chamber of Secrets must know about Aragog.

Maybe it was intentional, maybe it was unintentional.

The basilisk hurt or even killed a student.

This big black pot can only be taken by Hagrid.

"Professor Dumbledore--" Vincent looked at him and asked after getting his consent:

"Fifty years ago, the Chamber of Secrets was opened, and it caused the death of a Muggle student. "

"Yes, it was a tragedy. "

He subconsciously looked at Cedric, "If I'm not mistaken, that student was Myrtle, right?"

Dumbledore nodded gently, "She said she didn't know how she died, and now it's obvious. "

Myrtle died by looking directly at the basilisk.

There was no obstruction, no reflection, and she died instantly before her brain could react.

She had died once, so she could only be petrified the second time.

And the girls' bathroom where she had been staying was probably the entrance to the secret room.

"Merlin's big pants!" Cedric opened his mouth, "The Chamber of Secrets was built by Slytherin, could it be Snee—"

"Impossible." Vincent shook his head to deny this guess.

Judging from the protective measures Salazar added to the double snake staff, the conditions for starting the secret room are likely to be Parseltongue.

Controlling the basilisk to attack him, if Eric hadn't trained him since childhood, he wouldn't have used smoke bombs to interfere with his perception at first.

Moreover, Snape didn't have any deep grudge against him, so he didn't need to use this method to embarrass "one of his own".

"Is it Malfoy?" No one believed the twins' guess.

The Gaunt family, descendants of Slytherin, rarely intermarry, not to mention that the Malfoy family is not a pure blood in the true sense.

Draco, like other Slytherin students, had almost zero chance of inheriting Parseltongue.

Vincent was keeping an eye on Dumbledore.

Every time a new guess came out, there was no trace of emotion on his face.

Fifty Years Ago - Chamber of Secrets - Parseltongue - Heir of Slytherin - School of Purification

He was paying attention to Dumbledore, and Dumbledore was actually paying attention to him.

Salazar Slytherin's ideas may be the source of today's pure-blood supremacy.

And the one who firmly adheres to it and carries it forward is Tom without a nose.

Because he is the heir of Slytherin, the plastic surgery template is based on the Basilisk?

Vincent pinched his nose quietly and received a very small nod from Dumbledore.

It was him fifty years ago, but now?

He ran like a lost dog last year, and is he sneaking back again this year?
