An Idea to Lure the Snake Out

"Try to comfort it?" Wizet for a moment, then cast the Guardian Meditation, trying to feel the difference.

When he stared at the Ashwinder and spoke, the sensation in his entire mouth was different, as if it were undergoing some kind of tremor.

Wizet could clearly sense that the current state was more like releasing a spell than simply speaking.

"Please don't be nervous... we will let you leave soon..."

A faint hissing sound came from his mouth, both strange and familiar. He could understand the meaning of these hissing sounds as if by instinct.

The Ashwinder understood as well. It stopped twisting and struggling and just lay coiled on the ground, looking very docile.

"Headmaster Dumbledore, I succeeded." Wizet looked at Dumbledore, and this time his words were not hissing, but normal sentences.

He looked at the obedient Ashwinder and fell into thought again.

"Headmaster Dumbledore, if I use my special magical talent of ' Parseltongue,' would I have a better chance... of finding the ' Heir '?"

Dumbledore noncommittal, but asked with great interest, "What do you intend to do?"

Wizet murmured, "I want to conduct an experiment, and then lure the snake out of its hole."

"Luring the snake out of its hole?" Dumbledore blinked. "That's a very apt description in every respect. Tell me the specifics of how to do it! I'll give you some advice."

Wizet nodded, flipped through the notebook, and found the previous content.

"Headmaster Dumbledore, when I was studying the Animagus, I focused on the effects of Mandrake leaves. You should remember that, right?"

"Of course I remember!" Dumbledore nodded. "I can't wait to see your paper in Transfiguration Today."

Wizet cleared her throat and said, "It may take a while longer... I've only completed the outline of the paper and the sorting of the data so far."

"That's an amazing pace." Dumbledore waved his hand, an encouraging smile on his face. "How much have you accomplished since the start of the school year, until Halloween?"

"As far as I know, there are still Animagus who have mastered quite excellent Mental Magic, in addition to Weather Charm, Coolick..."

Madam Pomfrey entered the Hospital Wing and interrupted Dumbledore, "It's almost time, class is about to start... I think Wizet wouldn't want to miss it, would she?"

Dumbledore stood up. "We've been talking for a while now."

"Madam Pomfrey, thank you for reminding me!" Wizet, of course, didn't want to miss class and quickly thanked her.

He put the stool back in its place and said to Dumbledore, "Headmaster Dumbledore, I need to go back and organize my thoughts. I'll bother you again when I'm ready."

"Alright." Dumbledore put the stool back in its place. "Come directly to the Headmaster's Office. The password is ' Cockroach Clusters '."

"Cockroach Clusters ..." Wizet repeated, "I've got it. I'm going to class now!"

Watching Wizet's retreating figure, Dumbledore remarked, "Youth is wonderful! So full of energy!"

"You're still young, and you're carrying around bags of candy every day," Madam Pomfrey said irritably, stuffing Cockroach Clusters into Dumbledore's pocket. "Remember to control yourself!"

"Poppy, thank you for your trouble." Dumbledore smiled and nodded, then looked at the Ashwinder and said, "I should take this little guy back now."

During the days that Wizet was refining her ideas, discussions about the Chamber of Secrets never stopped.

Especially during the following History of Magic class, Hermione interrupted Professor Binns ' lecture to further clarify and refine the relevant details, which intensified the discussion about the Chamber of Secrets of Secrets.

Discussions and speculations about who Salazar Slytherin's Heir have also never ceased.

I don't know which student came up with this wild idea— Filch was right, Harry is the "Heir".

In the magical world, there is a saying that "the dragon slayer will eventually become Fire Dragon," which has even become a bedtime fairy tale.

The fairy tale goes like this: the wizard went through many hardships to kill the Fire Dragon, but was unfortunately cursed by the dying Fire Dragon.

When the wizard returned home, he developed more and more green rashes on his body, and sparks began to come out of his nose, until he finally turned into Fire Dragon to meet the challenge of the next wizard.

This fairy tale is not entirely fictional. The curse of turning into Fire Dragon may not exist, but a magical disease called "Dragon Pox" does indeed produce the symptoms described in the fairy tale.

Perhaps the person who wrote this fairy tale created the story by incorporating the Dragon Pox.

The reason this fairy tale is extended to Harry is because of his "The Chosen One" status.

Harry is the "wizard" who defeated Voldemort, but before Voldemort died, he left him a curse that made Harry the second Voldemort.

It lacked logic but was magical enough that it spread quickly, and some students from Muggle-born believed it and began to consciously avoid Harry.

As another weekend arrived, and with no new attacks reported, discussions about the Chamber of Secrets and the Heir gradually subsided.

Some students lost interest in the Chamber of Secrets mystery, thinking that what happened to Mrs. Norris might just be a prank on Filch...

Wizet finally created a magical item based on her own ideas and brought it to the Headmaster's Office.

Phoenix Fawkes had grown older; a third of its feathers had fallen off, revealing its fiery red skin underneath.

Its expression turned melancholy, as if it were ill; its eyelids drooped, and its once lively eyes lost their luster.

The berries that Wizet fed it were also processed to make them easier for it to swallow.

Nevertheless, Phoenix Fawkes swallowed very slowly, only able to tremble its neck slightly to let the sweet fruit juice slide into its throat.

Seeing Phoenix Fawkes the berry, Dumbledore returned to his seat. "He should be reborn before the Christmas holidays. It'll be a tough time."

After glancing at Fawkes the Phoenix one last time, Wizet composed himself, sat down opposite Dumbledore, and took out a magical artifact that emitted a faint glow.

This is an oval-shaped magical artifact, with Runes carved on its surface and an amethyst set in the center, from which the glimmer of light originates.

"Headmaster Dumbledore, this is a magical artifact I made using Parseltongue. It's a simple early warning device that can alert me to the movements of that Giant Serpent."

Dumbledore picked up the magical artifact, examined it carefully, and said, "A very exquisite magical artifact, with a very high level of completion!"
