[HP] Noble

Draco turned around when he heard the voice, he didn't look surprised that Potter would appear here, he just raised his eyebrows, looked at the empty cubicle, turned his head and glanced around hesitantly The senior Slytherin glanced at him: "You know, sometimes when you think that the invisibility spell or the invisibility cloak are useless to you, I don't know why, and I feel a little creepy."

"Hellhounds have good noses and ears, too," said Scorpius gruffly, "but you're pretty sure they're big stupid monsters."

"Oh, I didn't say anything, don't compare yourself to a dog." Draco narrowed his eyes slightly, and said lightly.

But at this time, in the direction they were facing, the air seemed to freeze, and even the weeping Myrtle stopped talking—then, everyone present heard someone stepping on the water and uttering "baah!" Baji” sound, as far as everyone could see, people actually saw a Potter’s head, and he seemed to be hurriedly taking off the invisibility cloak wrapped around him, and then his body slowly appeared, and finally his foot.

"It's all-pervasive, Potter," Draco said.

"I got here before you, Malfoy," said the Gryffindor Savior grimly, "I have a reason to be here, but before I get a chance to ask Moaning Myrtle , you came in, I had to hide!"

"Yeah," Draco raised his eyebrows, "In other words, if you're not guilty, what's there to hide from?"

Realizing that if they don't stop them, they can probably continue bickering happily until the sun goes down, Scorpius cuts off the two sophomores who are fighting each other with a blank face: "Are you two finished?"

"Oh, he started it," said Potter angrily.

Draco looked like he wanted to say something, but before that, Scorpius covered his mouth with a slap - his silver-gray pupils rolled around in his eye sockets, and finally, Slytherin His Highness' eyes were fixed on Potter's face not far away. Obviously, he was silently trying to signal the other party to fart with his eyes.

Scorpius let go of Draco, and at the same time, not far from them, Potter also turned to Moaning Myrtle - who didn't seem very interested in him, which was a bit strange Yes, Scorpius remembered that Myrtle liked Potter quite a bit in the fourth grade...and the Savior of Gryffindor didn't seem to care about this very much, he hesitated for a while, and said surprisingly: "A few days ago , I went to the Forbidden Forest—”

"Oh, I've made a note, Potter, and I'll tell Professor McGonagall the truth." Draco said mockingly.

Scorpius was silent.

At this time, Prince Slytherin seemed to have noticed something was wrong, he turned his head suddenly, and looked at the long black-haired Slytherin standing behind him from head to toe, the expression on his face showed that he was thinking What, about a few seconds later, he got a rainy answer: "You already knew?"

Scorpius shrugged: "I happened to have insomnia that night, so I went for a walk outside, and I saw it through the window in the corridor."

"You didn't tell me!" Draco lowered his voice pretentiously.

"What's there to say? In the middle of the night, I saw Potter and Weasley driving out of the Forbidden Forest? There was a huge eight-eyed spider lying on the roof?" Scorpius blinked, Turning to Porter Road, "The Weasley family's car is good, highly intelligent, hates spiders as much as its owner, knows how to lose its temper, and will choose the best time to escape from its owner-oh, wait, I Say, have you ever seen a cartoon called Transformers?"

"I've seen... oh, no, it's good, so you saw it that night? That means we're not the only ones who are illegal night walks—" Potter looked at Draco happily and said, "So you Don't even think about reporting us, unless Slytherin wants to get points deducted!"

"Come on, Potter," said Scorpius, quite amiably. "I'm a prefect with a legal night tour—we'll call it a 'patrol,' if you like."

Scorpius finished, and now the look on the Gryffindor savior's face looked like he had just swallowed a slug alive, and he was silent for a moment, looking like he was going to never speak to the two Slytherins again and turned to Seeing the weeping Myrtle, Myrtle let out a long sigh, and changed the posture of crossing her legs from the left leg to the right leg: "I thought you had forgotten me."

"I have a question for you, Myrtle," Potter said.

"I've been waiting for a long time to answer your question," Myrtle said, looking at Draco behind Potter, who she blinked at him.

"In the Forbidden Forest, Aragog—oh, that's an eight-eyed spider—pointed out my suspicions of Hagrid's stupidity, and said that if I needed to find out, I should start in the direction of the damp, I suppose. For a long time, the wettest place in Hogwarts should be the bathroom or lavatory, and here is the place closest to the time of the first attack, so I speculate that I should be able to find the answer here."

"Huh." Myrtle blew her bangs frivolously, and then laughed heartlessly.

Potter seemed a little annoyed by the laughter: "I heard that there was an attack at Hogwarts more than 20 years ago. Someone told me that some students died at that time—"

Scorpius and Draco exchanged a look. The events of that year have been almost perfectly concealed. Regarding the death of the crying myrtle, people only said that school violence caused students to commit suicide in the bathroom. They knew that The so-called student who committed suicide actually died in the attack, which was learned from Mr. Malfoy. If Potter knew, then there was only one person who would tell him about it: Riddle in the diary.

At this time, they noticed that Myrtle, who had been sitting in the bathroom, sat up a little bit, she put away the frivolous expressions on her face, and now she looked at least a little dazed: "More than 20 years ago, oh, 20 years ago Years ago, I was alive and a human—”

"Yes," Potter nodded frantically, "tell me, how did you die? Is that monster a Smantling water monster that can swim around in the water pipes? It can transform at will, and it's slimy like Dark and dank—"

"It's not polite to ask a ghost how it died, boy," Moaning Myrtle slowly spun and flew up from the sink, and she and her slow movements floated to the ceiling The look on his face doesn't look angry...

Draco frowned: "What's the matter, the last time I asked you the same question, you threw something at me?"

"Yeah, and then I found out I drove you off," said Moaning Myrtle, "and since then, I've decided to make myself less sensitive, oh, I just want someone to talk to, this washroom The room has not been so lively for a long time, giggling, so many boys gathered here looking at me and talking to me—”

Draco turned to the puzzled Potter, and said with a sarcasm expressionless expression: "You've got a great deal, Potter, you're welcome."

Myrtle flew around Draco a few times, looking like she was seriously remembering the situation: "I don't remember my death, boys... oh, to be precise , I never remember, I literally died in this bathroom, something killed me—"

"That's right," Potter said in his heartless cheery voice, "I knew he was telling the truth—everyone else told me you killed yourself in the bathroom—"

Potter didn't finish his sentence.

Because at this moment, he has successfully poked one of the few thunder spots of a ghost.

"What?!!!" The weeping Myrtle suddenly raised her voice, the erratic expression on her face changed completely, and now she looked ferocious, flying down from the ceiling with a whoosh and snapping her translucent His face was almost pressed against Potter's. "How dare they say that? Those shameless - son of a bitch - bastards! They say I committed suicide!"

Potter looked terrified, and he blinked. "...Oh, I know you're not—"

"Yes! That's right! I'm not! Although I can't remember exactly how I died, I'm pretty sure I didn't commit suicide. If I did, I wouldn't choose this damn place, here It's dark and humid and no one comes, why do I have to die here? I can't leave here! Whenever I want to leave, I feel like I lost my memory in an instant, there is such an invisible force that binds me to this damn place !!" roared Moaning Myrtle, as she floated petulantly in mid-air, "Let me see, let me see, it was a Ravenclaw mocking my glasses! That idiot, It was as if he had never seen anyone wearing glasses in his life. I was very sad and ran to this bathroom to cry here, because it is far away from the classroom and usually few people come here! At this time, I heard someone from outside pushing the door, I peeked through the gap under the compartment door - I saw the boy's school trousers - oh yes, and the edge of the dark green cape -"

The weeping Myrtle suddenly paused, the anger disappeared from her face, and she suddenly looked very happy and said, "I remembered! A Slytherin boy went into the girl's bathroom!"

At this time, Scorpius suddenly interrupted and asked: "Black hair? Black eyes?"

"No, his eyes were red, and that was special, so I remember it well," said Myrtle. "I wondered then, but that was later—for before that, I was Don't want to go out, you know I'm not that good at talking to guys, giggling."

Scorpius subconsciously glanced at Draco, who frowned and said angrily, "What are you looking at?"

"At first, I thought he just went the wrong way, but what I didn't expect was that he stayed here for a long time, and he seemed to be talking to someone in a funny voice--I opened the door and told him to go away, Go back to your boys bathroom and..."

Potter: "And then?"

Myrtle: "...and then I died."

Potter: "..."

"The guy wasn't alone here, there was something else in the bathroom at the time, because when I saw the guy's red eyes, I was sure I saw another pair of... big scary golden eyes, I swear , I have never seen such a beautiful eyeball in my life, but I think it killed me-I can't remember, oh, sometimes I can't help but wonder, if one day I can remember , can I get out of this damn place?"

"Uh uh," Potter looked hesitant, "I don't know too well."

"I think it's probably just a wild guess on my part," Moaning Myrtle floated for a moment to herself, "but I've never heard of a ghost that was bound in one place and couldn't get out, and I think it's not like that. Not having a complete memory matters - after all, every time I try to leave, there's a crazy voice in my head yelling 'not allowed to leave until I figure it all out', which is so weird, our academy If the big bookcase in the common room is still there, I really hope I can find some information in it-"

Now Scorpius was almost surprised.

From a certain point of view, a ghost is a stagnant object - all its time and thoughts should be frozen at the moment before its death, and its words and deeds can only revolve around the things it once had when it was a human being. Unfolding from the "past" of the past, Scorpius has never seen a ghost complete with developmental thinking - and, apparently, Moaning Myrtle is.

Moreover, without knowing the concept of "Earth Bound Spirit" at all, she spent more than [-] years, and then gradually brought herself closer to the truth!

And she mentioned the big bookcase in the common room—

There's only one house at Hogwarts that makes the common room look like a library—

"I always thought you were a Hufflepuff," Scorpius said in shock.

"Who said that?" Moaning Myrtle turned her head and gave him a reproachful look. "I'm a Ravenclaw."

"What's the trouble with that?" Draco asked impatiently. "Where did you see those eyes? — Oh, Potter, stop trying to figure it out, you Knowing it looks disgusting - isn't it scary that you're thinking and it's completely contrary to the truth?"

Potter: "..."

Scorpius: "..."

"At the sink over there, oh, it's the one next to this handsome platinum-haired guy," the crying Myrtle pointed casually, "hehehe, you're also handsome when you swear, you've specialized in swearing courses ?"

"Yes," Draco said deadpan, "Severus Snape is my honorary mentor."

Scorpius: "..."

Potter: "No surprise, Malfoy, I've never met a meaner person than you."

"When you break into a crowd with a slightly higher IQ one day instead of being with your stupid friends, you will find that the world is quite mean and full of malice, Potter." Draco looked quite calm Said, "Your speculation is completely wrong, the stupid water monster has no eyes at all, and the venom it releases can't make people die instantly so fast that they can't even see what killed them, not to mention, that thing doesn't eat people! "

While talking, Draco bent down to look at the instructions of the crying peach girl, Scorpius also leaned over, Potter hesitated for a while, and then leaned over——

Moaning Myrtle looked pleased and said, "That's the tap. It never turns out water, and I don't know what the man with the red eyes is doing there."

The three of them studied the water basin up and down, inside and out, and finally, on the side of the faucet, they saw a small mark, which was a snake, and there was a strange pattern underneath, which had been corroded by rust. It was hard to see clearly——Draco frowned, and gently scraped the totem with his fingertips, and as the rust fell off, they finally saw the patterns that appeared in front of them clearly: they seemed to be made of One corner of three different rectangles overlaps each other. At the corner of the lower left corner of the middle graphic part, which is like a hook, there are two origins that are not equidistant from the two sides projected from the origin of the corner.

Draco showed an expression of astonishment for a moment: "This is the symbol of the second guide BETHOR."

"What's that?" Potter asked.

"The origin of magic, the oldest symbol, the pride of Salazar Slytherin, whatever you want to understand," Draco frowned, "This is the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets."
