Vol 3 Chapter 523: The truth is out

After a few hours-
It was late at night, and suddenly only a "squeak" was heard, and the door of the principal's office was pushed open.
Principal Jon Hart, who was dragging his tired body, returned here; behind him, he was followed by Gryffindor's sixth grader, Harry Potter.
"Okay, Harry." Jon turned around and said gently, "Thank you for your help this evening. Now you can go back to the Gryffindor common room; if you meet Filch on the way Sir, just tell him that he is going back from my side..."
"By the way, please try not to tell anyone what happened tonight, even Miss Granger and Mr. Weasley!"
Harry Potter nodded dumbly.
Obviously, he didn't seem to have fully recovered from the shock before.
"Then...bye, Jon!" he whispered.
"I wish you a good dream, good night!"
...
With Harry Potter's departure, the principals and heads who were still "pretending to be reserved" on the portrait wall instantly became active
The entire principal's office started to be like a vegetable market again, chattering and noisy.
"How is the situation now?"
"What is it like in the secret room, I want to see it too!"
"Did the curse of the Defense Against the Dark Arts class be lifted?"
They discussed loudly and asked Jon Hart.
"Don't worry..." Jon shook his head and said, "Who are you, go and help me call Professor Galatia Melos... Although it might be offensive this night, it's an urgent matter. !"
"Let me go!" a principal volunteered.
"Okay, thank you, Chris!"
As Jon was talking, he put a piece of parchment on the table, which was the seal carved in the back of the Slytherin statue in the secret room before. He wrote down all those words. On parchment.
"This seems to be... Rune?" a principal asked softly.
"It should be." Jon nodded and explained, "This is the magic left by Salazar Slytherin. The reason why Tom was able to impose a curse on the position of the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts is probably for reference. The magic recorded above...I will give it to Professor Melos 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 secret room... Hurry up, tell us... Professor Dumbledore got out of the secret room four years ago When I come back, I am as mysterious as you are now..."
"There really is nothing!" Jon shrugged and said with a look of "Chen Ken".
I completely ignored the "distrust" look on the whole wall...
...
Ten minutes later, Professor Galatia Melos arrived at the principal's office.
"Principal Hart... Such a night..." she said dazedly.
Professor Melos seemed to be called out of the bed, he was still wearing checkered pajamas, and he looked sleepy.
"I'm sorry to disturb you so much at night, Professor Melos." Jon said with a serious face: "But what you mentioned earlier is that the reason why Tom Riddle was able to invade Hogwarts' authority and treat you The reason for imposing the curse not to retire from Hogwarts, I think I have found out..."
"Oh?" For a moment, the old lady suddenly became energetic, and she lost her sleep 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 talking, Jon handed her the parchment full of runes.
The old lady took the parchment, then sat down on the ground very carelessly, and began to study carefully.
"What an ancient magic... so subtle..." she muttered involuntarily: "It's hard to imagine, it was through this way..."
"Can you think of a way to get rid of this curse?" Jon asked in a low voice.
"I think so." Professor Melos nodded earnestly: "But it will take a while... it will take two weeks... the fastest."
"Okay, I'm waiting for your good news!" Jon smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't worry, principal, my old lady sometimes still has two brushes..."
...
Professor Melos left the principal's office, and Jon Hart sat back on the principal's bench.
The portraits on the wall of the principals and headmasters had disappeared a lot at this time, and they were all there with their eyes closed and rested; it was also time for Jon to calm down.
In fact, Phineas was right before, he didn't tell the truth in the secret room.
Just like Albus Dumbledore didn't tell the truth in 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 a thousand years ago has long put his own consciousness, beliefs, and Hogwarts' thoughts poured into his pet, allowing that terrifying monster to silently guard the Hogwarts campus during these thousand years.
It’s a pity that Tom Riddle opened the secret room fifty years ago...Unlike his ancestors, Tom Riddle was a person who didn’t know what love was by nature. His understanding of basilisk was to kill hemp. Tools of the melon wizard.
The natural snake-like voice has a very powerful command effect on snakes...Although the basilisk still remembers the mission given to it by Salazar Slytherin, it has to obey the commands of the snake-like voice again and again. A student who attacked Hogwarts...
Although it did its best not to kill; but in the end it was inevitable and killed a Hogwarts student~EbookFREE.me~ Four years ago, Ginny Weasley passed Tom -Riddle's Horcrux opened the chamber again.
But this time, Albus Dumbledore also entered the secret room. Although Dumbledore was not a natural snake-like voice, he could not manipulate basilisks; but as a scholar with a lot of experience, he was able to use simple snake-like voices to communicate with snakes.
So Albus Dumbledore, through communication with the Basilisk, also knew the truth of this period of history.
So he didn't hurt the basilisk, but took it to the deepest part of the secret room, the mouth of the Slytherin statue, so that the basilisk that had been severely injured could slowly heal. Let it re-execute the duties of the guardian.
At the same time, in order to prevent panic, he did not publicize the incident... but 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—
