"There's really nothing much to say about Myrtle. The reason why she refused to let our forces in to monitor Harry's whereabouts was entirely because she had a grudge against me. Until now, she still thinks that it was because of me that she died."
On Jon's table, Naughty, who had materialized, crossed his legs and said helplessly.
"But the truth is that the snake monster was the cause of her death. Why did she find you?"
Cecatly was puzzled.
Up until now, Jon had never explained this to her, and Cecatly was inclined to believe that Jon didn't know the inside story, so she didn't ask much.
Since the person involved was sitting here, she might as well ask a few more questions.
"Of course it wasn't because of me. At that time, the girl was being mocked and cried in that washroom. But you know, that washroom is in an awkward place, right at the entrance to the secret room. For a period of time, Liddell often went there …"
"Liddell?"
Cecatly glanced at Chown with a questioning look in her eyes.
"Voldemort. His full name is Tom Marvolo Liddell. Usually, when people don't call him by his middle name, they call him Tom Liddell."
"Now is not the time to be thinking about Voldemort's name. Are you going to listen to my story or not?"
Naughty knocked on the table, indicating that they shouldn't continue to stray from the topic.
"Of course, go ahead."
Chown glanced at Cecatly, hinting that they could talk about this later. They had to figure out what was going on first.
Naughty's story was very clear. Because the two people in front of him could stray from the topic at any time, he sped up and explained the situation in a few sentences.
His ability to express himself was surprisingly good, but it was understandable. After all, as the principal's secretary, the most important thing was to simplify things.
"So, to put it simply, you noticed the snake monster's strange behavior that night, and then you wanted to drive Myrtle out. However, Myrtle stayed in there for too long, and when she came out, she accidentally bumped into the snake monster. But I remember that Myrtle … wears glasses?"
"Oh, this question. Don't you need to take off your glasses to wipe your tears when you cry?"
Well, this answer hit the nail on the head.
Jon expressed that this result was acceptable, so he didn't dwell on this matter.
"Although Myrtle's death was a complete accident, I have to say, it's really interesting that the location of the secret room was protected."
"Not necessarily by accident. Tom Liddell used to go that way. If we put all these things together, then this matter is not that simple. "
However, it was too late to say anything now.
Myrtle's death was already set in stone, and no one could change it. With the addition of the snake monster, it was impossible to overturn this matter.
Besides, no one cared about Myrtle.
"Lohat cares, but no one cares about what he thinks."
Now that the situation was clear, she did not want to think about it anymore.
It had nothing to do with her. Let Jon worry about it.
"Since Myrtle isn't under your control, we can only kill her. I'll handle this matter."
When these words came out of Jon's mouth, it was as if he didn't think about it at all, which shocked Naughty Ghost.
On the other hand, Jon himself was shocked.
"…"
There was a strange silence in the air.
"Are you serious?"
Cecatly broke the silence. In fact, she was the one who was most surprised.
Because in this room, the only one who didn't know about Jon's past was her.
"I thought you were a clean student."
She said without thinking, "Myrtle is very pitiful."
"I'll leave first." Naughty Ghost said before Jon could say anything, "You can solve this matter yourselves. Let me say this first, I won't do anything to Myrtle. If you have a way, you can solve it yourself. If not, then we won't care about what happened in the bathroom."
After he finished speaking, he disappeared from the room.
Jon didn't comment on his words. It was impossible to ignore it. That was the entrance to the secret room. Many important things happened there. As for Myrtle's unwillingness to cooperate, Jon had other ways to solve it.
"Do you have any ideas or experience on how to get rid of ghosts?"
"Not at all. And I don't plan to kill her. Every ghost is a very valuable asset to the Hogwarts. Even if she doesn't obey Naughty Ghost's orders, that's only because Naughty Ghost doesn't want to use force.
If it's really necessary, she won't refuse to do something that's beneficial to the Hogwarts. But now it's hard to say whether this matter is beneficial to the school, and she's not willing to trust Naughty Ghost … She's a relatively new ghost. "
"In that case, what do you want to do?"
Cecatly walked over and put her hand on Jon's shoulder.
"Do you want to ask for Dumbledore's help? He's been at the school recently. If we need his help, he shouldn't refuse. "
"There's no need to trouble him for the time being. I plan to use Myrtle for an experiment."
"Is it some kind of black magic experiment that involves evil? If it is, please don't tell me. "
"Of course not. I'm thinking that since the Weave is gradually maturing, we should find a node for it. But in its current state, there's no way for it to connect to a normal Wizard, so I think that choosing a ghost is the right choice."
Jon's method might not be particularly useful, but even the two of them couldn't completely understand the characteristics of the Weave. This was a very ridiculous thing. As the creator, they didn't know what they had created. But that was the truth, and they couldn't solve this problem.
"But if we do this, won't it affect Myrtle in any way?"
"That's not a problem we should consider now. We need to solve the problem in front of us. As for what changes will happen to Myrtle in the future, we don't know, so we can only wait and see."
"That's true. When do you plan to start?"
"There's no time to lose. A long night is fraught with problems."
Jon looked at his watch. Ye Qi's feathers trembled slightly.
"I'm going to see this Weeping Myrtle tonight."
