The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 634 Curiosity killed the cat

Albert never thought that Hermione would be attacked at this time.

In his opinion, Tom Riddle's first target should be Gilderoy Lockhart, not other Muggle wizards.

At least, the probability of being attacked by the panel task-ridden Albert is higher than others.

Hermione was attacked, it should have been accidental.

Here, Nick, who was almost headless, also happened to save a certain Hufflepuff student, and the ghost now happened to save Hermione, which feels a bit like a correction of history.

However, Nick, who was almost headless, was petrified, always giving Albert an indescribable sense of weirdness.

Is it really just accidental?

Albert doesn't really know.

This kind of weird feeling will arise, and it is more derived from some of the time converter's rude operations.

After confirming the location of Ginny Weasley, Albert took out the detection ball to confirm that the Basilisk had returned to the secret room, and then went to the school hospital to visit the petrified Hermione.

He met Harry and Ron in the corridor outside the school hospital. The two looked sad, apparently not thinking that Hermione would be attacked.

Albert stopped Harry and asked, "Where was Hermione found?"

"On the third floor, near the promenade of the stairs leading to the second floor." Harry said in a low voice, seeing no one left or right, "I heard that voice again."

"It seems that my guess is correct. Well Harry, don't be sad, you should think about the good, Hermione is just petrified, it is already very lucky." Albert reached out and patted Harry on the shoulder. He comforted: "At least, you don't have to worry about being attacked again in the future."

When Harry and Ron heard the words, they were speechless. They didn't expect Albert to be so comforting.

If you can't comfort others, don't talk!

The two did not understand what Albert meant, and they were undoubtedly lucky that they were attacked without losing their lives.

After being separated from Harry and Ron, Albert went to the school hospital alone.

If it hadn't been for Madam Pomfrey's close acquaintance and the fact that she was Hermione's good friend, I'm afraid she wouldn't have been given a five-minute visit, but would have been kicked out of the school hospital.

Albert went to the bedside,

Looking at Hermione lying stiff on the bed. The girl's eyes were wide and frightened, apparently seeing the ugly basilisk with her own eyes.

If I were replaced by myself, would I be scared by the basilisk and make my legs go weak?

After leaving the school hospital, Albert looked at the panel task that was triggered, and was quite satisfied. He came to the school hospital just to see if he could find any clues, preferably to trigger the panel task.

sleeping Beauty?

Well, the task is simple.

Probably just to wake up Hermione before Snape configures a powerful recovery agent, the reward is also very general, some experience and favorability, a task that is better than nothing.

Albert had a potent restorative in his hand, which he could drink to Hermione at any time to wake her up.

Of course, Albert didn't plan to let Hermione wake up from petrification now, at least until Tom Riddle's diary was destroyed, otherwise disarming her petrification in advance would only bring her life in danger.

After leaving the school hospital, when Albert was about to return to the library, he saw a glove waving at him in the air, and then made a tick, leading him to an empty classroom that no one was using. There was no one there, but there was a piece of parchment on the dusty table.

There's something wrong with this!

Albert saw that the glove was pointing at the parchment on the table, motioning him to look at the content on it, and then lost his strength and fell on the parchment.

As he stepped into the classroom and reached for the parchment, his eyes were drawn to something in the corner of the classroom.

Albert turned his head to look, and was so frightened by the shadow in the corner that he pulled out his wand.

When he looked at it, he recognized at a glance that it was Nick who was almost headless.

This Mr. Ghost is no longer milky white and transparent, and has become black and smoky, looking like a ferocious ghost.

No way, Nick's head fell off in half, looking terrifying.

The ghost was also petrified, lying motionless on his back, his body suspended six inches above the ground. There was an undisguised horror on his face, but Albert could see a bit of a heroic decision to die from the horror.

Albert picked up the parchment and began to read the contents. The parchment was written in scrawled words: 4:30 PM, the third floor of the West Tower, a circle, a map.

"Sure enough, there is a problem." Albert stuffed the parchment back into his pocket, which was undoubtedly his own reminder to return to the past to save Hermione.

Weird!

However, Albert didn't think about it either. He took out the time converter and prepared to return to an hour ago, recalling the information on the paper in his mind:

Four-thirty in the afternoon should be the time when Hermione was attacked.

The third floor of the West Tower should refer to Nick's location.

One lap should refer back to an hour ago.

The map should refer to the Marauder map.

I reminded myself on the parchment that it would definitely be used.

Albert put away the time-turner, stuffed the gloves into his pocket, and hurried to the boys' dormitory. He knew where the twins kept the Marauder's Map.

After returning to the Gryffindor common room, Albert found that the place was fried, and everyone was talking about the attack on Hermione and the nearly headless Nick.

Oddly enough, people seem to care more about Nick's attack.

Kenneth Toler approached Albert almost as soon as he returned to the lounge, hoping to continue working with him on the amulet, but Albert found a reason to shirk him into the night, and he has no time to wrestle with the other party now. .

After picking up the Marauder's Map from the drawer, Albert used the time shifter to go back an hour.

Going downstairs, I glanced at the corner of the common room inadvertently. Ginny was still in the common room, and she didn't know if she had been controlled by Tom now.

Hermione was here too, seemed to be saying something to Harry and Ron, everything seemed calm, who could have guessed that there would be an attack soon?

Albert was a little suspicious, could this attack be caused by something he did?

He quickly suppressed all his emotions and quickly left the Gryffindor common room to find Nick, who was almost headless. He had to convince Nick to protect Hermione from the basilisk.

Nick, who was almost headless, was not difficult to find. It was around the third floor of the West Tower. Albert quickly found Nick's specific location through the Marauder's map.

As he rushed past, Nick was talking to a female ghost.

Albert was hesitant to go directly to disturb the other party, but after seeing Nick's retreating back, he finally couldn't help but quickly stepped forward and stopped Nick, who was almost headless.

"Anything with me, Albert." Nick took off his head like a top hat and greeted Albert.

"Yes sir, there is something that only the heroic Sir Nicholas can do." Albert did not forget to compliment the other party.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Nick was interested, and Albert's praise made him very useful.

"Are you aware of the attack going on at the school?" Albert asked.

"I know." Nick nodded.

"There's going to be another attack on the school in the near future." Albert pulled a time-turner out of his pocket and held it in front of Nick. forward."

"So, you're from a few hours later?" Nick asked suspiciously.

"Accurately, an hour later." Albert put his index finger to his lips, made a shush, and said softly, "Remember to keep it a secret, this matter was originally not to be told to anyone, of course, the ghost Neither."

"I will," Nick assured with a nod. "What do you need me for?"

"I need Sir Nicholas to save a friend of mine at a critical moment." Albert asked solemnly.

"I'm just a ghost," Nick reminded.

"I know." Albert explained, "The attacker was actually a head basilisk, the monster that Slytherin left in the secret room, and someone released it."

"You just said... Basilisk!" Nick's voice stuttered a little.

"Yes, the basilisk, my friend Hermione will lose her life if you look into the eyes of the basilisk, but if you block Hermione in time, you can prevent a life from being lost, and she will only be killed by the basilisk. petrified eyes."

"Please don't worry, the basilisk can't hurt you, looking directly at it will at most make you temporarily incapacitated, and you will save a life." Albert is trying to convince Nick, "Only the brave Griffin It takes a lot of people to have the courage to face the basilisk. In the near future, you did it too, successfully saving Hermione's life."

"Well, you're right, not all ghosts have that kind of courage." Nick agreed to help.

"One more thing, please help me keep it secret, otherwise I will be severely punished for violating a large number of Ministry of Magic laws." Albert did not forget to remind.

"I will." Nick patted his chest and offered to help, realizing he was doing something great.

Yes, they were trying to save a student's life in a way that only a brave Gryffindor ghost could do, and most importantly he succeeded, which was important.

Under Albert's flickering, Nick agreed to help, he hurried to the third floor of the school, and waited for Hermione by the corridor according to Albert's plan.

It's fifteen minutes before four thirty in the afternoon.

While Albert was trying to save Hermione, Hermione was sneaking out of the Gryffindor common room behind Ginny Weasley, trying to figure out what Ron's sister was up to.

In fact, Albert's guess was right, and this was really caused by his return to the past.

Not long ago, when Albert hurriedly left the Gryffindor common room, he caught Hermione's eyes. That inadvertent swipe at Ginny Weasley just happened to catch Hermione's attention.

Hermione was curious as to why Albert would pay special attention to Ginny, apparently for some reason, after all, the two of them didn't know each other well.

Although Hermione didn't know why, after she secretly observed Ginny, she soon discovered Ginny's abnormality, which was probably the reason why Albert glanced at Ginny inadvertently.

Although Hermione didn't understand what was going on, she quickly connected it to some of Ginny's erratic behavior at school.

Ginny had been having nightmares a while back, had a breakdown, had a pale face like she was sick, was sad when Filch's cat was attacked...all of which proved that Ginny was acting abnormally.

Also, Riddle's diary was stolen, and it was a student of Gryffindor who stole the diary, and Albert thought there was something wrong with that diary, and Albert noticed Ginny, maybe he had discovered Ginny's Unusual behavior and doubts about Ginny?

Could Ginny Weasley be the thief who stole the diary?

There is another possibility.

An absurd thought filled Hermione's mind that Ginny had something to do with the Chamber of Secrets, she knew who had opened the Chamber of Secrets, and even Ginny had opened the Chamber of Secrets.

how is this possible!

But Albert would never aim for nothing, he would suspect that Ginny must have a reason.

Ginny's expression just now was also very wrong.

Hermione couldn't help but stop, she felt that she should tell Harry and Ron what she knew, but she was a little curious about what Ginny was going to do, if she went back to the common room, she would definitely lose people, and Ginny was Ron's sister, and Ron wouldn't necessarily believe his own words.

In the end, Hermione still sneaked behind Ginny, trying to figure out what the hell Ginny was up to first. But she didn't know that Ginny Weasley knew someone was following her.

Yes, Tom knew someone was stalking him, but he didn't care, especially after knowing in Ginny Weasley's mind that the stalker was a Muggle wizard or a friend of Harry Potter. There were other thoughts, and he planned to summon the basilisk to kill the opponent.

Presumably after the death of his friend, Harry Potter will definitely pursue this matter desperately. When he believes that he will meet Harry again, he will have the opportunity to find out the reason for Voldemort's failure and kill Harry completely. in the cradle.

As for the despicable guy like Lockhart, Tom Riddle originally planned to kill him this time, but the appearance of Hermione behind him made Tom change his mind.

After all, Lockhart still has some value, allowing him to guide Harry to the Chamber of Secrets, and then just kill him together.

If Lockhart died too easily, it was obviously not in line with Voldemort's style of doing things. He would lead people to the secret room, and how he wanted to kill the other party at that time would be all he could say.

Ginny quickened her pace and easily got rid of Hermione on the second floor. She sneaked into the secret room and controlled the basilisk to attack Hermione.

Unbeknownst to Tom, everything he did was seen by Albert through the Marauder's Map.

To be honest, Albert was actually quite surprised when he saw Hermione tracking Ginny on the Marauder's map. He didn't expect Hermione to suspect Ginny at all, which is really not to be underestimated!

It's just that Gryffindor's death-defying character is very problematic. If it wasn't for herself, Hermione would be cold.

Curiosity killed the cat!
