A Hogwarts Professor of Magical Writings Chapter 35 The Attack



The Great Hall.

The atmosphere of the party was very lively. Dumbledore fulfilled his promise and invited a skeleton dance troupe. They played cheerful tunes with instruments made of bones and danced funny dances. To be honest, this performance style was very memorable. The

little wizards had satisfied excitement on their faces. They sat in the pumpkin lanterns and tasted the special festival food. In Felix's opinion, their taste did not change much, but the style was novel enough and unconventional.

Felix picked up a black, tombstone-shaped caramel cake and put it into his mouth.

On the ceiling of the Great Hall, there were ribbons and monster masks of various colors hanging. He even saw three big black dogs. In the wizarding world, black dogs do not have a good reputation. But he observed carefully and found that it was a three-headed dog.

Felix: "..." I always feel that the reputation of the three-headed dog has been damaged.

Unknowingly, the time passed ten o'clock and rushed to eleven o'clock. The little wizards also put down their tableware one after another, with satisfied smiles on their faces.

Felix wiped his mouth with a napkin and began to discuss spells with Professor Flitwick. Professor Lockhart tried to interrupt but was ignored by the two.

Two months into the semester, anyone with a little bit of intelligence could easily see what kind of person Lockhart was.

Felix couldn't help but look at Dumbledore in reproach. My trust in you was wasted. You found such a fake to be a professor?

I thought he had real skills.

Felix felt that the time he spent was not worth it.

Finally, the Skeleton Dance Troupe ended the performance with an alternative soothing tune. Everyone applauded in unison until they bowed and turned into a cloud of black smoke and left the stage.

The party was over, and the little wizards crowded out of the auditorium. Several professors were left waving their wands to clean up the mess.

At this time, a little wizard returned in a panic, his lips trembling.

"Professor, I think you need to come and see...something happened!"

Without him saying anything, the professors also heard the exclamations of the young wizards outside the hall. Dumbledore took a few steps and walked over, and the crowd automatically separated a space.

Felix and Professor Flitwick looked at each other and quickly followed.

They climbed the stairs and came to the third floor. Following the sight of the young wizards, they turned the corner and came to an empty corridor.

The first person Felix saw was Harry, Ron and Hermione. The three of them stood alone, and there was obviously a space around them. But the next moment, his eyes fell on the cat hanging on the torch stand.

It was Mrs. Norris.

It looked very stiff, as if it was dead.

Next to it, on the wall one foot above the ground, some words were smeared, shining under the reflection of the burning torch.

The Chamber of Secrets was opened.

Enemies of the heir, be alert.

Filch shouted something, and Dumbledore quickly passed the crowd and untied Mrs. Norris. His expression became serious, and his blue eyes looked carefully through the half-moon lenses.

"Come with me, Filch," he said to Filch, "and you, Mr. Potter, Mr. Weasley, Miss Granger."

Lockhart quickly recommended his office and followed Dumbledore. Professor McGonagall, Snape, and Felix followed closely behind, while Professor Flitwick was left to calm the panicked little wizard.

Lockhart's office.

Several professors were gathered around a smooth table, looking at the stiff Mrs. Norris.

The tip of Dumbledore's long hooked nose almost touched Mrs. Norris's fur. He looked at it carefully through the half-moon lenses, and his slender fingers gently poked here and there.

Professor McGonagall bent over, her face almost touching the cat, and squinted her eyes to look closely.

Snape stood behind them, half hidden in the shadows.

Felix stood on the other side, his fingers brushed across Mrs. Norris's back, and the fur on its body became unusually hard. Then he gently touched its body with his wand and felt a strong curse.

Not dead... It seems to be petrified...

Almost at the same time, Headmaster Dumbledore stood up and whispered, "It's not dead, Filch, it's petrified."

But the headmaster's words could not relieve Filch's resentment. He instantly locked the suspect on Harry and did not hesitate to expose his identity as a Squib.

But his suspicion was quickly rejected because "this requires the most profound black magic." The

trio obviously couldn't do this.

What's more, there was the strange handwriting on the wall.

Chamber of Secrets...

Felix fell into thinking, such a familiar name.

Next was Snape's home court. He interrogated Harry and the other two in a sarcastic tone. Harry hesitantly explained, which made Felix sigh.

Kid, you are not good at lying, and your psychological quality is not up to standard.

However, Felix immediately fell into thinking, what are they hiding?

After attending the Deathday party in the basement, they should have returned to the hall, but they didn't...

Perhaps, they could find a chance to ask their assistants.

After the trio left, several professors exchanged information.

"Potter didn't tell the truth, Headmaster, this is my opinion." Snape repeated his point of view.

No professor refuted this point, they could all see it.

But Professor McGonagall habitually defended her students, "We have no evidence to prove that they did anything wrong. In fact, they may have just heard some strange noises."

"This possibility cannot be ruled out," Dumbledore did not comment, "What's your opinion, Felix."

The eyes of several people present fell on Felix, and even the photo of Lockhart on the wall poked his head out of the shadows.

"My opinion... I'm still thinking about the words on the wall. The Chamber of Secrets was opened. Whose Chamber of Secrets? Who opened it? Who is against this so-called heir?" He asked three questions in a row.

Professor McGonagall pursed her lips and said dryly: "It sounds like the legend of Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets again, but there has never been any evidence to prove it..."

Except for the two newcomers Felix and Lockhart, the other three are old teachers. Similar campus legends spread among the young wizards every few years, and they are constantly updated, and the content is becoming more and more sensational and bizarre.

"But as far as I know, the names that can be associated with the word Chamber of Secrets are the most famous Ravenclaw and Slytherin. And referring to this attack, the direction is already very obvious."

The other people can understand what Felix means. The Chamber of Secrets is related to Slytherin.

Ravenclaw can't do such a thing.

"The speculation is reasonable, but unfortunately there is no evidence." Snape stabbed him.

Finally, Dumbledore made the final decision, "In the next few days, let's search the castle to see if we can find anything."
