When rumors of a "Slytherin Chamber of Secrets" started circulating at school, Draco was the first to tell Thomas.

"Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets?" Thomas was sitting in the office grading homework, and Abraxas was sitting next to him and dozed off, but at this moment he rubbed his eyes to wake up, and hugged his grandson. "Who spread the rumor?"

"I don't know." Draco was also puzzled. "It's as if... all of a sudden, it was said that the heir of Slytherin would use the monsters in the Chamber of Secrets to clean up Hogwarts students of impure blood."

At Hogwarts, half-bloods far outnumbered pure-bloods - and the Heir of Slytherin sat next to them, drawing a big 'A' on his homework paper.Hearing what he said, he immediately looked over with a smile that was not a smile: "Oh?"

"Do you want to ask Alger?" Abraxas suggested. "He hangs around Hogwarts all day, so he should know something."

The summer had just passed, and Alger the basilisk was alive and kicking, spending half a day wandering around Hogwarts almost every day, and then going to the Forbidden Forest to bask in the sun.

And then he told Draco in turn: "Don't worry, Thomas won't do that"—or what he should have done right away was kill himself, all right.

Draco gave him a blank look - in fact, in the short 12 years of young Master Malfoy's life, he didn't know any half-breeds at all.

After sending Draco away, Abraxas looked at his partner worriedly: "Why do such rumors suddenly appear, is someone trying to trouble you?"

"Who knows." Thomas continued to approve homework with a face of indifference. "Don't worry, nothing will happen."

——It turned out that something happened that night.

The first to suffer were Hermione and the Weasley brothers.

That evening, Thomas took Abraxas to the Forbidden Forest for a walk with Alger, passing the corner of the corridor, only to find the Weasley twins and Miss Know-It-All lying motionless on the ground, and it was unclear whether they were in a coma or dead.

There were two lines of big blood-red characters written on the wall, reflecting the gloomy light from the torch on one side, and there was a strange gloom in the erratic light and shadow.

The mysterious chamber has been opened.

Those of impure blood, beware.

Abraxas was taken aback, and subconsciously hid behind Thomas. "Who did this, it feels so disgusting—" He paused and frowned again. "The secret room? Alger?"

The basilisk was wrapped around Thomas' arm, and he also looked at the blood on the wall with a strange expression.Although it was rumored that Salazar raised him to get rid of the impure students in Hogwarts, in fact, the contract on him prevented him from harming any student at all.

Thomas' eyes flickered slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled into a faint smile.

"Ah!!!—" A series of screams came from behind, Thomas turned around and saw several second-grade students not far away.

"Don't be afraid." He showed a reassuring expression, slipped his wand into his hand, and nodded to several students. "Go and call Principal Dumbledore, I'll stay here." Then he turned around and walked towards the three petrified people with a solemn expression.

What a teacher by example!Abraxas was stunned—so handsome!

After a while, the number of students piled up, and several professors arrived one after another.Thomas walked back quickly and told Dumbledore seriously in a moderate voice. "They fainted. They seemed to be poisoned. I think it must be some kind of potion. Let Professor Snape take a look."

Hearing what he said, before Dumbledore could speak, Head Slytherin immediately walked over.

"Potion?" Dumbledore's eyes flashed, and he looked at Thomas seriously - no, it couldn't be Thomas, he had no reason to do so at all...

"Principal, let the students go back first, so as not to cause confusion." Thomas said lightly, and then looked at the four deans present.Professor McGonagall reacted first, and ordered a few senior students to take away the younger students.

The other colleges skipped it, only Slytherin, because Headmaster Snape was checking the situation of the three students over there, Thomas stopped the heads of the fourth and fifth grades, and asked them to clarify the situation of Slytherin After the number of people, take them away together.

Draco mingled with the second year kids, looking this way from time to time.Abraxas was worried about him, and after talking to Thomas, he ran through the crowd and hugged him, preventing him from getting closer.

Thomas nodded at him from afar.Alger climbed onto his shoulders, his cold golden eyes coldly swept over everyone present.

The Weasley brothers and Hermione had indeed taken a weird potion that seemed to put people into a long sleep, somewhat similar to a sleeping potion, but the related antidote and even the wakefulness potion had no effect.

Both Madam Pomfrey and Dean Snape were helpless. Dean Snape locked himself in the cellar to study for several days, but he was still unable to analyze the exact composition of this potion.In the end, it was Principal Dumbledore who came out and asked Professor Slytherin to study together—although he is now a suspect, the old principal was sure that he was not the murderer, and expressed great praise for his potion level.

Thomas expressed his gratitude and apology to him, and then flatly rejected him.

Because in fact, the reason why rumors are called rumors is because they will only spread more and more outrageous.

The next day, the Chamber of Secrets was opened by the heir of Slytherin, and the news that three students had died had spread throughout Hogwarts.Apparently, everyone didn't care about the question of "why the Weasley twins were unlucky even though they were pure blood", they only cared about——Professor Slytherin, he is the veritable heir of Slytherin!

What's more, he was the first to arrive at the scene that day-who knows if he has been there all the time?Moreover, Professor Dumbledore also praised his level of potion - didn't the potion really come from him?

For a while, people in Hogwarts were panicked, especially the half-bloods.Of course, many people argued for Professor Slytherin - which murderer would be so stupid as to be so obvious?It's so obvious, why not admit it?Besides, didn't the principal say that he believed that he was innocent!

Moreover, the three students were only poisoned and did not die.As long as they are detoxified and they wake up, they will naturally know who the murderer is.

The two parties were arguing and quarreling, each insisting on their own opinions, and neither could convince the other.Professor Slytherin, who is always calm and relaxed, even when he is doubted like this, still goes his own way, taking his pet snake (Alger) to and from class, with a gentle spring breeze on his face. smile.

The other party is more anxious than he imagined, of course it is a very good thing.He retrieved the crown from the Room of Requirement, and slipped a modified Vanishing Cabinet into it.

—and then he called Lucius.

Snape didn't understand what happened until Thomas wiped off the Dark Mark on his arm.

He didn't go to Thomas...but the other party came to him and helped him?

Merlin's stinky socks, this man in front of him is not a kind-hearted philanthropist!

"Lord Slytherin." He thought for a while, but still didn't call him "Lord". "Can you tell me why you did this?"

Thomas looked up at him and smiled. "Of course, Professor Snape, I can tell you - because of Lucius."

"I asked Lucius to do some things, of course I have to reward him, I have always been a person who pays attention to rewards and punishments, haven't I?"

Snape was slightly taken aback, a little moved, but also a little hesitant - he was a little unsure if the other party meant something.

"Your Excellency." He hesitated. "Lucius has always felt that I should be on your side, if there is anything I can do for you..."

"I will not accept your surrender, Snape." Thomas interrupted him calmly. "If you were a Prince, maybe I could consider it, but a Snape, it's impossible."

Although the pure-blood nobles are very pretentious, there is one thing that the mixed-bloods and the mumps can't compare with-they love their race, surname, and homeland deeply, and will always stick to the position of wizards, while their parents are Muggle mixed-bloods and Muddy, after graduating from Hogwarts, may not choose to live as a wizard.

It is also now that the Holy See is in decline, and the life of wizards is not as dangerous as in the Middle Ages. Otherwise, even if any wizard reveals his identity, there will not be so many wizards who think highly of themselves.

Dean Snape was silent for a moment, and resolutely gave up the topic just now. "Principal Dumbledore hopes that you can prepare an antidote for that poison."

"He wants you to convince me?" Thomas smiled. "It's very interesting. Sometimes I really can't understand what Professor Deng is thinking. Why can't he adapt to the communication method of pure-blooded nobles?"

Without benefits, how could he be persuaded to do it.Just how much are two Weasleys and a hemp seed worth in Dumbledore's eyes.

"If you want to make a condition with him, I can also convey it on your behalf." Snape said cautiously.

"Let's talk about it." Thomas took a deep look at him, and the smile on his face became more meaningful.

"Don't worry, I will give you a chance to convey it."

Snape felt cold sweat crawling down his back, and a subtle premonition suddenly came to his mind.But he still replied respectfully, and didn't say any more.
