When he was focused on doing something, time was like an hourglass under gravity. It was so fast that he doubted whether he was doing anything properly.
Dinner.
It was still in Jon's small courtyard. This time, it was to celebrate the initial progress in their research.
This matter had nothing to do with Stephen and the rest. They were still in charge of monitoring Harry's daily life. However, recently, Harry seemed to have been possessed. He was too calm, and apart from training, he was studying every day. It made people think that he had given up on the spirit of adventure and transferred from Gryffindor to Ravenclaw.
Because this matter had nothing to do with them, the three of them sat at the side and were responsible for eating.
However, it was boring to just eat, so they ate more and more in an attempt to use food to stop their doubts.
Thus, when the late Lockhart arrived, the few sets of snacks that were originally prepared for him were almost finished by the three of them.
Grindelwald and Dumbledore disappeared from the school again. This time, the two of them had made an appointment. They also told Jon and Cecatly that they would be going out for a period of time and would only be back at the end of the month.
Jon did not know what had happened. He and Cecatly discussed a little in the gap between their research, and finally came to the conclusion that they were going out to look for clues about the Sacred Relic of Death.
Actually, this matter did not need to be considered. After all, everyone in the circle knew that Dumbledore was obsessed with the Lifestone. Furthermore, Aberforth, who was also Dumbledore's brother, might not agree with the return of Grindelwald. Hence, it was clear what their goal was.
"But, the Lifestone doesn't seem to have the effect of resurrecting people from the dead."
This kind of gossip could only be said when eating, and only then would it not be a waste of time.
Gossip was a woman's nature, and even Cecatly was not an exception. Hence, recently, Cecatly and Béla had developed an inexplicable friendship.
Perhaps this was the power of gossip. Jon wisely did not intend to participate, and only quietly served the two girls at the side.
Lohat's arrival could be considered to have saved him.
"So, the matter I told you before still hasn't been resolved, right?"
During this period of time, Lohat's teaching task was indeed more difficult. Of course, the difficult part was not how to teach the students magic, but how to improve his disguise without being discovered by the students.
And the thing he gave to Jon before was to ask Jon to investigate the reason why Harry inexplicably said the snake voice.
"It's not that I didn't investigate. I know a little about it. It's just that it involves the school's secrets, so I thought Naughty Ghost had told you."
He was indeed to blame for this. Recently, he had been busy dealing with research matters with Cecatly. He rarely even looked at Harry's reports that were submitted to him. He would just send them out directly. Therefore, he had really shelved this matter.
However, he already knew the answer to this matter.
"You don't have to worry about Harry's snake voice. Although it is a little ability inherited from Voldemort when he died, it is not harmful to us. As for the conversation — there are two possibilities. One is that when Voldemort returned to the school, he left some arrangements in the school. The other is that the school's snake monster caused a commotion."
"Snake monster?!"
How is this related to the snake monster?
"Why are you so surprised? Didn't I tell you before? "
Jon recalled the previous conversation between the two and found that he had indeed not mentioned this matter.
"Well, that's my problem. I was so busy telling you about the origin of Harry's snake voice that I forgot to tell you about this matter.
There has always been a rumor about a snake monster in the school. Actually, you should know a little about it. I think this legend is not a secret to you. "
"Of course I know it's not a secret. Are you talking about the legend of the school's successor? Come on, you don't really believe these things, do you? "
"It's not that I believe it, but this thing does exist, but it should be a little different from the legend you heard. The original founder of Slythrin, Mr. Salazar Slythrin, left a measure to protect the school. It is a snake monster that has followed him for many years. This snake monster has been sleeping under the Hogwarts and will wake up at the right time and then sleep again. Its existence is actually not to kill all the hybrids as the legend says, but to protect the school. If the snake is not deliberately controlled by someone, it will not attack the Wizard, it will only attack Muggle."
"Him? Jon, you know something, don't you? "
Lohat grabbed Jon's hand and looked very anxious.
"Of course I know, otherwise why would I tell you this?
The most basic condition for telling you so much is that I have to understand this matter, right?
If I really don't know anything like you guessed, then wouldn't it be nonsense to tell you these things that are classified as secrets?
Spreading rumors is not a good thing, I won't do it. "
Jon felt a little strange, he watched Lohat's expression as he spoke.
"Teacher Lohat, what are you nervous about?"
Lohat's nervousness was visible to the naked eye, because of this, Jon felt that something was wrong.
Lohat was not a careless person, if there was nothing wrong, then he must know something.
"Myrtle, the ghost of the women's washroom — Sobbing Myrtle, she's my senior. I've heard from her that there's something terrifying in the washroom she's in. At least, whenever that thing is restless, she doesn't dare to stay in the washroom."
"Oh … Then it should be the entrance to the secret room."
The Shadow of the Hogwarts has more than one entrance. Since the secret room is part of the Shadow of the Hogwarts, its entrance is naturally one of the entrances to the Shadow of the Hogwarts.
However, this entrance is only the entrance in the real world. To really open the Shadow of the Hogwarts, some spiritual help should be needed.
Naughty Ghost didn't tell Jon about these things in detail, because Jon didn't plan to enter the Shadow of the Hogwarts, so how many entrances are there? Jon didn't care much.
But now it seems that Lohat is more concerned.
"But what's the use of knowing that entrance?" Jon looked at Lohat, who couldn't hide the excited expression on his face, and said helplessly, "Can you go in and kill the snake monster?"
