The Legend of Harry Potter Schoolmaster

Chapter 524: The Truth Comes Out

a few hours later-

It was late at night, and suddenly there was a "squeak", and the door of the principal's office was pushed open.

Headmaster Jon Hart, dragging his tired body, came back here; behind him was Harry Potter, a sixth-year student of Gryffindor.

"Okay, Harry." Jon turned around and said gently: "Thank you for your help tonight, now you can go back to the Gryffindor common room; if you meet Filch on the way Sir, just tell him he came back from me..."

"By the way, please try not to tell anyone what happened tonight, not even Miss Granger and Mr. Weasley!"

Harry Potter nodded awkwardly.

Obviously, he didn't seem to have fully recovered from the previous shock.

"So... goodbye, Jon!" he whispered.

"I wish you a sweet dream, good night!"

...

With the departure of Harry Potter, the male and female principals who were still "pretending to be reserved" on the portrait wall became active in an instant——

The entire principal's office began to chatter like a vegetable market again.

"How is the situation now?"

"What is it like in the secret room, I want to see it too!"

"Has the curse of Defense Against the Dark Arts been lifted?"

They discussed aloud and questioned Jon Hart.

"Don't be in a hurry..." Jon shook his head and said, "Who are you, help me call Professor Galatea-Meles over here... Although it may be a bit offensive at such a late night, the situation is urgent after all. !"

"I'll go!" A principal volunteered.

"Okay, thank you, Chris!"

While talking, Jon put a piece of parchment full of writing on the table. This was exactly what was carved in the chamber of secrets behind the statue of Slytherin. He wrote down all the words in the on parchment.

"This seems to be... a rune?" a headmaster asked softly.

"It should be." Jon nodded and explained: "This is the magic left by Salazar Slytherin. The reason why Tom was able to cast a curse on the position of the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts probably refers to The magic recorded on it...I will hand it over to Professor Melas later to see if she can find a solution from it."

"That's it? That's it?" Principal Phineas Black said impatiently: "There must be more secrets in the Chamber of Secrets... Hurry up, tell us...Professor Dumbledore came out of the Chamber of Secrets four years ago. When I came back, I was as mysterious as you are now..."

"There is really nothing!" Jon shrugged and said with a "Chen Ken" face.

Completely ignoring the "distrustful" look on the entire wall...

...

Ten minutes later, Professor Galatea-Meles rushed to the principal's office.

"Principal Hart... such a big night..." she said in a daze.

Professor Mellors seemed to have been woken out of bed, still wearing checkered pajamas, and looked sleepy.

"I'm sorry to disturb you at such an early night, Professor Mellors." Jon said with a serious face: "But what you mentioned before, about the reason why Tom Riddle was able to invade Hogwarts' authority, and what happened to you The reason for the curse of not retiring from Hogwarts, I think I've found it..."

"Oh?" The old lady suddenly regained her energy in a flash, and she didn't feel sleepy at all.

After all, the curse of the mysterious man was imposed on her, and in a sense, it was closely related to her interests.

While speaking, Jon handed her the parchment full of runes.

The old lady took the parchment, sat down on the ground in a careless manner, and began to study it carefully.

"What an ancient magic... so exquisite..." She murmured involuntarily, "It's unimaginable that it's done in this way..."

"Can you find a way to lift this curse?" Jon asked in a low voice.

"I think it can." Professor Mellors nodded seriously, "But it will take a little time... about two weeks... at the soonest."

"Okay, I'll wait for your good news!" Jon smiled and heaved a sigh of relief at the same time.

"Don't worry, principal, I, an old woman, sometimes have two brushes..."

...

Professor Mellors left the headmaster's office, and Jon Hart sat back on the headmaster's bench.

The male and female headmasters on the portraits on the wall had already calmed down a lot at this time, and they all closed their eyes and meditated; it was also time for Jon to calm down.

In fact, what Phineas said before was correct, he did not tell the truth in the secret room.

Just like Albus Dumbledore didn't tell the truth about the Chamber of Secrets four years ago.

The basilisk in the Chamber of Secrets is not a "monster", but the guardian left by Salazar Slytherin to Hogwarts... The wizard who was thousands of years ago had already put his consciousness and beliefs, and Hogwarts' longing poured into his pet, allowing that terrifying monster to silently guard the Hogwarts campus for thousands of years.

It's a pity that Tom Riddle opened the secret room fifty years ago... Different from his ancestors, Tom Riddle is a person who doesn't know what love is. Tools of the Melon Wizard.

The natural Parseltongue has a very powerful command effect on snake creatures... Although the Basilisk still remembers the mission entrusted to it by Salazar Slytherin, it has to obey the orders of the Parseltongue, time and time again. A student who attacked Hogwarts...

Although it tried its best not to kill; but in the end it was inevitable and killed a Hogwarts student.

Four years ago, Ginny Weasley opened the Chamber of Secrets again through Tom Riddle's Horcrux.

But this time, Albus Dumbledore also entered the Chamber of Secrets. Although Dumbledore was not born with a Parseltongue, he could not manipulate basilisks; but as a scholar who dabbled a lot, he was able to communicate with snakes using a simple Parseltongue.

So Albus Dumbledore, through communicating with the basilisk, also knew the truth of this period of history.

So he didn't kill the basilisk, but brought it to the deepest part of the chamber, into the mouth of the Slytherin statue, so that the basilisk, which had been severely injured, could slowly recover. Let it perform the duties of guardian again.

At the same time, in order to prevent panic, he did not publicize the incident... Instead, he modified Harry Potter's memory, claiming that Harry had killed the monster...

Until a few hours ago, Jon and Harry entered the secret room again——
