The conversation with Barrow the Bloody yesterday made Mike understand a lot of things.
First of all, I must have some kind of peculiar mark on my body, this kind of mark can make Ms. Gray perceive herself from a long distance. At the same time, the two old ghosts, Ms. Gray and Barrow, the Blood Man, were very afraid of this mark.
Mike preliminarily guessed that this mark was the raven claw mark on his face that was not normally visible. Besides that, Mike really couldn't understand what else was strange about him.
But if the thing that makes Barrow so terrified is really the claw mark, then what is he afraid of? And what is the demon that Barrow said?
Barrow said at the beginning that he killed Helena not because he hated her, but because he wanted to save her. What did that mean?
After experiencing the last incident, Barrow the Blood is now like Ms. Gray, hiding himself everywhere.
In desperation, Mike can only change the direction to investigate, that is, to find out the true identity of the girl in the dream.
With questions like this, Mike plunged into the Hogwarts library from the next day and began to look up all the history of Hogwarts since the school was founded.
Fortunately, Hogwarts, as the most famous magic school in Europe, has a part of its own responsibility for recording history. So there are many books on the history of the wizarding world in Hogwarts' rich collection, and the history of Hogwarts is the most detailed.
So when Mike searched the Hogwarts student list according to the range of 1870-1890, he easily found a suspicious object, Miriam Ravi.
The reason why Mike thinks she is the person he wants to find is because there are two words written in dazzling dark red ink behind her name: missing.
After he asked Professor Flivy, he determined that the missing Ravi was the girl who had appeared in his dream.
Flitwick: "I am a little bit impressed with the Miriam you mentioned. Although I was not a professor at Hogwarts at the time, I was already a member of the Raven’s Nest. She has a great reputation because she is the person who has persisted in the admission test for the longest time in the past 100 years. I remember that she was only 15 years old when she joined the association. The elders of the Raven’s Nest were very optimistic about her, but unfortunately..."
When Mike finished inquiring Flitwick and continued to browse the Hogwarts list, he found a terrible fact that made him creepy.
Ravenclaw girls have an alarmingly high rate of disappearance and mortality.
Since 1200 AD, the Ravenclaw in the Hogwarts Student Directory has often appeared missing, dead and other words, and most of these people are women.
This is actually not surprising. After all, the wizarding world was still chaotic at that time. The probability of a young wizard's death was high. There were also many missing and dead records in other colleges.
But the more you turn the microphone backwards, the more you can see that something is wrong. The student death rates of other colleges have been steadily declining year by year. Only Ravenclaw is not the same. Ravenclaw’s female student death rates have not declined over the years, but have shown an upward trend. The worst has even come. Several deaths a year.
This reminds Mike of the demon mentioned by Barrow the Blood Man. Is there really a demon hidden in the Hogwarts campus that has been devouring the lives of those young girls for thousands of years?
However, this is not all the anomalies on the list. According to the records on the list, the last Ravenclaw girl to be confirmed dead was named Myrtle Elizabeth Warren, who was hiding in the girl’s bathroom in the original book. Female ghost.
Since the death of Myrtle, there has been no record of unexplained death or disappearance of a girl in Hogwarts. Mike knew the cause of Myrtle’s death. She was killed by Voldemort using the basilisk, so strictly speaking, she was not the last girl to die in the hands of the "devil".
The real last deceased should be Ravenclaw's fifth grader, Sheila Clinton, who died in 1935.
After the death of Hilla Clinton, the "demon" disappeared as if being killed by someone, which made Mike very puzzled.
Because according to his previous guess, the raven claw marks should be the sign of the "devil". Now that the raven claw marks appear on his face, it means that the "devil" has not disappeared, but there have been dozens of them since 1935 During the years, there were no more victims. What is the reason?
Mike sat on the bench in the library and stared blankly, wondering why.
Two Slytherin freshmen walked past Mike, talking and laughing. The two of them were talking and laughing while holding a small flag in their hands. This is a magic flag specially made by the Slytherin students for their Quidditch team. The whole body is made of green cloth. It is on both sides of the flag. With the Slytherin emblem painted, a silver-white python spit out a letter and walked on a shield. From time to time, the shield would turn over, revealing the words on the back of it: Come on Slytherin.
Mike remembered that he had been investigating this matter for almost a month, the Quidditch League at Hogwarts had begun, and today is the day when Slytherin played against Hufflepuff. UU reading www. uukanshu.com
I have to say that these flags are made very delicately. The silver-white python painted on them also made a bite gesture at Mike when the two Slytherin freshmen passed in front of Mike.
And Mike looked at the ferocious white snake in front of him, as if a thunderbolt flashed across his mind, a name appeared, Tom Riddle.
Excited Mike hurriedly flipped through the Hogwarts student list again, and laughed at the name Mike on it.
From 1938 to 1945, Tom Riddle studied at Hogwarts-Slytherin College.
Everything is clear now, Tom Riddle is Voldemort's original name, and since Voldemort enrolled in school, the "demon" of Ravenclaw has disappeared, and it appears on himself again today.
So what is the connection between Voldemort and Ravenclaw?
The answer is very simple, that is the crown!
When Voldemort was in school, he knew the position of the crown through Ms. Gray, so he took the crown hidden in the Albanian forest and made his own Horcrux, and then hid the crown in the responsive room.
The crown must have a very close relationship with the demon, so the demon stopped hunting the Ravenclaw girl after Voldemort made the crown into a Horcrux.
"No loud noise in the library!"
Mike's loud laughter not only attracted the attention of the little wizards around, but also attracted Mrs. Pince.
While Mike didn't even look at Mrs. Pins, he rushed out of the library in one stride.
