"Chamber of Secrets?"
Minerva·McGonagall Suddenly heard this word, her face looked a little unhappy.
"Yes, Professor."
In front of Professor McGonagall, Sean felt as if he had shrunk in size.
"Tell me about it."
Professor McGonagall looked at him with a look that Sean couldn't quite understand, as if he was determined.
On the table, the silver kitten ornament was illuminated by the firelight of the fireplace. Sean inexplicably remembered that in the hut, Justin often baked some soft desserts by the fireplace, or heated several cups of honey tea.
"Hogwarts does exist Chamber of Secrets, and the entrance is in the bathroom. Basilisk does exist in Chamber of Secrets. It is about fifty feet long. Its gaze can kill people, but after many refractions, it loses its power..."
When it came time to explain, Sean gradually became smoother.
"The beginning of everything comes from Tom·Riddle's Diary. At Restricted Section I learned that this is probably Horcrux..."
Sean roughly explained the problems of Riddle's Diary and the frame-up decades ago. As for the battle of Chamber of Secrets, he skipped it.
"Why do you know so clearly?"
Minerva·McGonagall's voice was obviously trembling. She did not ask Chamber of Secrets, Basilisk, or Riddle's Diary for more information. Sean saw the firelight shattering into Mars in her warm eyes.
"I was... involved a little bit."
Sean said.
"Dumbledore is really crazy to let you participate in such a dangerous thing..."
Although I had expected it, Professor McGonagall still took a long time before speaking in a hoarse voice.
Regarding Professor McGonagall, Sean lowered his head slightly. In fact, Headmaster Dumbledore probably didn't know it at first.
"You did great, kid."
Professor McGonagall was silent for a while and let out a long sigh.
How should she explain her relief and concern, or should she say that this is the price that every lover has to bear.
It was a warm winter, the fire was burning fiercely, and the slivers of rain and snow melted against the windows.
Minerva·McGonagall sat on a chair with soft cushions, listening to the ups and downs stories told by the little wizard.
Starting from discovering the anomaly of Ginny, from meeting Moaning Myrtle by chance, and exploring the truth fifty years ago...
The story of Chamber of Secrets - the young man Tom once blamed Hagrid, and now tries to activate Chamber of Secrets, but is eventually destroyed by Harry. The story of Horcrux - is slowly depicted around the stove.
It is not difficult to tell that the little wizard was almost single-handedly responsible for the destruction of Tom Horcrux.
"What about Basilisk, how did you solve it?"
Professor McGonagall said slowly that she could already bear the dangerous behaviors the little wizard did.
For example, if you make a Magic Refraction Mirror, you dare to go to Chamber of Secrets, for example, you risk being discovered by Riddle to investigate the Chamber of Secrets entrance, etc...
Nothing could stir up her peaceful and firm heart.
Sean was silent. Although he tried his best to avoid it, he still couldn't get around it.
"I beat it."
Sean whispered.
He felt himself smaller again.
"Sean·Green!"
Minerva·McGonagall couldn't help but slapped the case,
"That's Basilisk! You kid--"
She was furious,
"Tell me the details!"
Outside the window, it was as if the owl knew something bad was happening here. It flapped its wings and bypassed the window, flying toward the boundless night.
"You said that the Weasleys are all excellent wizards.
Voldemort is gradually destroying Ginny's soul, and he can still command Basilisk to launch an attack at any time...
I will do my best before tragedy occurs and before everything is irreversible."
Sean raised his head and said.
There was no wave in his green eyes, like a vast ocean.
Minerva·McGonagall looked gloomy, her lips pursed into a tight arc, staring at the little wizard but unable to say a few words.
"How did you defeat Basilisk..."
She asked, as if hoping that a certain principal would appear in the process, so that she could know that this behavior was still safe and not as dangerous as she imagined.
"I used some Transfiguration, and Sword of Gryffindor... actually, no one else..."
This night, Sean felt particularly uncomfortable.
Lies have no effect. In reports or in the mouths of Harry and others, the professor can clearly know what he has done.
Professor McGonagall was motionless, and she felt the sky was spinning.
In Chamber of Secrets, there is no one, no one to rely on, a second-year little wizard with only some insignificant magic;
Just carrying a heavy responsibility and unspeakable courage is enough to support him to face Basilisk and win...
What happened during this process, and how many accidents may occur?
There is no way of knowing.
It's also disturbing.
She closed her eyes, and Sorting Hat's unthinking appreciation appeared in her mind:
"You showed amazing bravery."
In fact, even though Sean showed great strength as Transfiguration at the beginning of school, in the eyes of Professor McGonagall, he was still a "little wizard in the second grade."
Therefore, the professor can accept that his magical ability is enough to change Forbidden Forest's entire landscape, but cannot accept that he can already face Basilisk.
So after the curfew came, Sean followed the professor out of Transfiguration office. The professor did not ask him for more details, as if she did not want to hear it.
"Go get some sleep, kid."
Professor McGonagall said warmly.
She gradually gained an imperceptible smile.
At least the kid was willing to tell her, right?
The truth is always different when told by different people.
Sean finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He looked at the fleeting light on Void Talisman and silently walked towards Ravenclaw Tower along the snoring portrait.
In Gryffindor Tower, today is not too peaceful.
As soon as Professor McGonagall came in, she called Harry and Ron in front of her. Now, she is calmer.
"About, Chamber of Secrets. I already know everything. I did a good job, Harry, and Ron. Do you have anything to add?"
Professor McGonagall has the ability to put the little wizards in order just by making a sound. Harry and Ron were originally frightened when they were called inexplicably.
They thought they had violated a hundred school rules that were discovered by Professor McGonagall, but now, it seems that Headmaster Dumbledore and Professor McGonagall explained their heroic actions.
"Of course! Professor!"
Ron is quite excited. When he mentioned this, he couldn't stop talking.
"The thing is like this, on the first day, we discovered Sean...
His robe is torn, his hair is stained with dust, and he is holding a bloody sword--if Headmaster Dumbledore told you, that is the legendary Sword of Gryffindor.
At first we didn't know what he did, but later we found out that Professor... every night, he was fighting Basilisk..."
"Ron..."
Harry saw Professor McGonagall's expression changing again and again, and quickly poked Ron with his hand.
