Chapter 264 I, Andy, Keep My Mouth Shut

"Hissing?"

Dumbledore looked at Harry intently and said in a serious tone: "Harry, where did you hear the sound?"

"I..."

Harry opened his mouth, he looked a little nervous, "Professor Dumbledore, I heard the sound in the corridor. We walked over here and saw..."

At this point, Harry looked at the attacked Ravenclaw girl with some sadness.

Dumbledore nodded slightly.

If it weren't for Andy's news that Harry was a Parseltongue, Dumbledore obviously wouldn't have thought of the key to the problem so quickly.

If the 'hissing' sound was a Parseltongue, then what Harry heard should not be a 'hissing' sound, but a normal language.

Parseltongue is not a simple Parseltongue, but a kind of 'Serpent Language Mastery' magic.

Under the effect of this Parseltongue magic, the language of snakes sounds no different from normal language to Harry.

So...

Either Harry is lying, he wants to conceal the information that he is a Parseltongue. Or it's just an ordinary 'hissing' sound, not the sound of a Parseltongue.

But Dumbledore believes in the third possibility more.

Someone told Harry that he heard a ‘hissing’ sound, and then led Harry here, where he found the attacked Ravenclaw girl.

Professor McGonagall looked at Dumbledore, "Albus, what does this sound mean?"

"Minerva..."

Dumbledore said cryptically: "More than fifty years ago, it was also in this place that Myrtle heard some strange sounds."

"You mean..." Professor McGonagall's face changed drastically.

"Yes!"

Dumbledore nodded, "Someone wants to use this news to create panic. Minerva, you and Poppy take this child to the school infirmary. Harry, Ron...you two follow me."

Andy glanced at Ron who was following Dumbledore, frowned slightly, and there were a few questions in his mind that he couldn't figure out.

This attack was too weird.

First of all, Ron showed some abnormality, and then Hermione noticed it.

Secondly, according to Harry, he heard some ‘hissing’ sounds before the attack.

But this is impossible.

Because Harry is a Parseltongue, Parseltongue sounds like a normal language to Harry - he can't hear the 'hissing' sound of snakes at all.

Finally, it's all about what happened before.

Let's not talk about Ron for now. Harry's anxious look just now is obviously worried that someone will tell some secrets.

But what is he worried about?

Andy thought Harry was worried about exposing Ron's secret at first.

But Andy soon realized that Harry didn't need to worry about these.

Because Andy didn't have any evidence.

If he wasn't worried about Andy, then the person Harry was worried about was Ron?

"Is it the secret of Parseltongue? Or is it related to me?" Andy guessed in his heart.

"Andy!"

Hermione looked at Andy and whispered, "What did Potter mean just now? Is he doubting you?"

Andy made a helpless expression, "Let's go to dinner first, and we'll talk on the way."

"In fact, I also want to know what Harry means. But one thing is certain now, that is, Ron is definitely not the murderer."

In this incident tonight, Ron is at best a cannon fodder.

He has two functions.

First, to attract Andy's attention.

Second, to influence Harry's judgment.

However... even though Andy now has four points of [Thinking] attributes, it is difficult to figure out the connection between these two points.

"Indeed!"

Hermione said quietly: "I just noticed Weasley. At first, his expression was a little strange. Later... when you said you didn't find anything, he didn't have any expression."

"Hmm..."

Andy pondered for a moment, spread his hands and said: "We are still missing a piece of information, a key piece of information that can connect all the clues."

"We can sort out the whole thing from the beginning."

Hermione said: "Let's start from the abnormality I found in Harry and Ron last night..."

"No!"

Andy interrupted: "If we want to sort out the clues from the beginning, I think... we'd better start with Voldemort's purpose."

"Voldemort's purpose?" Hermione was a little surprised.

As they were talking, Andy and Hermione had already walked into the auditorium.

Perhaps because of the attack that had just happened, there were not many people in the auditorium.

Andy and Hermione found a place to sit down.

"Yes, that's Voldemort's purpose!"

Andy said seriously: "We all heard that the two victims had a lot of vitality sucked out. On the surface, the dark magic item wants to restore its power, then escape from Hogwarts and revive Voldemort."

"That's right!"

Hermione nodded in agreement, "I have no doubts about this."

Andy continued: "Since Justin was attacked, he has heard some things about me. Maybe... he also found some clues in the Chamber of Secrets that can prove that I have been to the Chamber of Secrets."

Hermione nodded.

Judging from what has happened so far, Andy's judgment should be correct.

"So he is targeting me."

Andy thought for a moment and continued, "Of course, he has been keeping an eye on Harry. For this, he also controlled Ron and got some information from Ron."

"For example: I once learned Parseltongue from Harry."

Analyzing here, the situation seems to be much clearer.

"He placed the attack site in the girls' bathroom on the second floor... Did he do this to frame you?" Hermione asked worriedly.

Is it because of the thief's intention?

If the murderer really targeted Andy, then Andy would be too dangerous.

"Maybe!"

Andy said calmly, "Hermione, do you remember the real purpose of the black magic item we mentioned before?"

Hermione's eyes lit up when she heard this, "Escape from Hogwarts and resurrect Voldemort."

"That's right!"

Andy nodded and said, "In order to achieve this goal, he needs power, intelligence, and chaos in the castle, so as to create an opportunity for him to escape from the castle."

The basilisk is dead, and the secret room has lost its value.

If Voldemort threw out the Chamber of Secrets to attract everyone's attention, then the whole thing makes sense.

"Andy!"

Hermione said in agreement: "Do you remember what Professor Dumbledore said? He specifically mentioned Myrtle and the attack fifty years ago."

"But... we told Professor Dumbledore the location of the Chamber of Secrets a long time ago."

Andy suddenly sneered.

No matter how Voldemort planned, he probably could not have expected that his plan would be ruined by a "big mouth"?

I, Andy, keep my mouth shut!
