Chapter 244 Ada’s Character Collapses

After pushing down the big fool of the Weasley family, and then the second fool of the Weasley family, Ada felt satisfied. She picked up another piece of cake and ate it happily.

Many times, you can endure hunger, but as soon as you take the first bite of food, you will feel even hungrier. This is the case for Ada now. She regards the cake as a dazzling one and can't stop at all, even if it's a little dry.

The twins took the cushions and both brothers sat down. The big fool Fred asked: "You are hiding here. By rights, you should have calmed down a long time ago, but now you are still acting petty. What has provoked you again?"

Ada didn't say anything. She pointed to "The Origin of Gaunt" on the ground and let the two of them read it by themselves.

George, the second idiot, took the book into his hands. He and Fred looked left and right, but they didn't understand what Ada was getting at with a book.

"Gaunt, are there anyone named Gunter in the school?" Fred asked, "Why do I think this surname sounds familiar? Ah, I remembered it, the descendant of Slytherin you mentioned before!"

Ada swallowed the cake in her mouth, beat her chest again, and then said: "Yes, there are many useful things in this book. I found clues to the secret room from it. But I still need some time to be sure. The specific location of the secret room.”

After hearing this exciting news, the twins did not show any excitement on their faces, but looked worried. George asked: "Ada, you don't really plan to investigate like this, do you? Do you know how dangerous this is for you?"

Ever since the first attack, Fred and George had been smiling but worried. They were afraid that Ada would continue to investigate, they were afraid that Ada's curiosity would harm herself, and they were afraid that Ada would become the next victim.

Unless the biological parents who abandoned Ada suddenly come out and say that Ada is a pure blood, the twins will not feel at ease.

"Don't worry, I still know a lot about it, and I won't just keep looking into it." Ada said, "I will tell Dumbledore all the clues I found and let him play with the basilisk. Don’t risk your life trying to find a basilisk!”

After hearing this, the twins relaxed a little and were in the mood to understand the progress of Ada's investigation.

Fred touched his chin and said: "A basilisk that may be fifty feet long. How did it wander around the castle without being discovered? How did it choose its target? Was it identified by the heir of Slytherin or... Can it tell the difference on its own?"

Fred's doubts were not very clear to George. The two of them looked at Ada who had eaten and drank enough, hoping to hear what she had to say.

"It should be pipes." Ada said, "The pipes in the castle extend in all directions, enough for the basilisk to wander around the castle. This is also the reason why Harry can hear the basilisk's voice but never see the basilisk. Snake Blame it on the walls.”

As for how the basilisk chooses its attack target, Ada doesn't know. Logically speaking, since she danced so much in school and had so many conflicts with Slytherin students, she should be the first to be attacked.

However, more than three months have passed. Colin Creevey and Justin Finch-Fletchley were petrified one after another, but Ada was fine. Not only was she alive and kicking, but she was getting closer and closer to the truth.

If the target of the attack is really selected by the heir of Slytherin, then his selection criteria are really confusing! Or is it that the heir of Slytherin is not as scary as he imagined? He is also a bully and shy of the strong, picking on the weak first.

At this time, Ada, who was rejoicing to be close to the truth of the matter, did not know that there was someone in the school who was closer to the truth than she was, but this person was once again deceived and lame like last year.

Yes, that's right, this person is Harry Potter. He picked up a diary, a diary belonging to Tom Marvolo Riddle.

It is said that one learns from one's mistakes, but this old saying did not apply to Harry. After Quirrell, Harry was deceived again. He believed the stranger's sixteen-year-old memory and regarded Hagrid as the murderer behind the scenes.

It's understandable that Harry didn't know that Tom Riddle was Voldemort. Nowadays, few people know who Voldemort once was. However, Harry should not forget that he is a Parselmouth, and only he can hear the monster's voice.

Moreover, not only did he forget, but Hermione and Ron also completely forgot about it.

After all, Voldemort was a man who could pull up a team single-handedly, but he still had the ability to deceive the unsuspecting Harry. Poor Harry fell into Voldemort's way.

Well... Hagrid is the heir of Slytherin, and his pet Acromantula is the murderer of students. It's hilarious to think about the scene where Hagrid and his furry Aragog are hiding in a secret chamber, debating which mudblood to attack next.

Aragog, who knocked down Voldemort and reached the peak of spider life, did not expect that he would be blamed again fifty years later.

If Ada knew, she would definitely send out soul torture: Acromantula? Is that right? That thing can also kill people? Isn’t that the walking golden galleons?

Aragog was really miserable. Fifty years ago, he took the blame for Voldemort's basilisk and became the murderer of students. Fifty years later, he was burned down by Ada, his family was almost destroyed, and he was regarded as the murderer by Harry Potter. It really couldn't be more miserable.

Knowing that the Acromantula is so big, please ask for the area of ​​​​Aragog's psychological shadow...

Harry, who was stunned by the deception, believed Voldemort's live broadcast, but he believed that Hagrid did not intend to kill the students, so in order to protect Hagrid, he chose to hide the matter.

Harry told no one except Ron and Hermione. Unless the attack happens again, this incident will be completely rotten in the hearts of the three people.

If Harry had not done this and told Ada about Tom Riddle's diary or the broadcast he saw, Dumbledore would have started beating the little monster by now.

Of course, Ada also has unshirkable responsibility in this matter. During the Christmas vacation, in order to find out what Harry and Ron did after taking the Polyjuice Potion, Ada proposed an exchange of information.

In exchange, Ada told Harry some of her discoveries. She learned about the legend of the Chamber of Secrets, the Gaunt family, the descendants of Slytherin, and she told Harry these two things. The speculation about Tom Riddle and his identity has not been revealed.

This was just Ada's own conjecture. She was not sure, so she didn't tell Harry for fear that it would affect Harry's judgment.

After all, the look of Harry's head last year was still fresh in Ada's memory. Harry's hatred of Snape made him turn a blind eye to Quirrell's various weird behaviors. If he knew that this matter might be related to Voldemort, he would not turn the school upside down!

Furthermore, Ada's surname was not Trelawney, so how did she know that Harry would pick up Voldemort's diary. There were so many students in the school, and it was such a coincidence that this diary was picked up by Harry!

Unlike Harry who concealed the situation, Ada, who was weak and unable to take care of herself, chose to report the truth truthfully. She told Professor McGonagall all she had discovered: the monster in the secret room was a basilisk, and this incident was most likely related to the Gaunt family.

Professor McGonagall was shocked by the news brought by Ada. At the same time, she was very relieved that the ignorant cub had finally grown up.

These clues are very important to the search for the secret room. If these clues had been known before, the secret room would have been found long ago.

Instead of confronting the heir and the basilisk, he chose to tell Professor McGonagall that the persona of Gryffindor's number one reckless man had collapsed again, or could it be that this persona had never been stable?

This year can be said to be Ada's most well-behaved year. Not only did she not get into trouble, she also found clues to the secret room. Professor McGonagall couldn't be more satisfied with her performance.

So, at the end of February, everyone suddenly discovered that countless mirrors had appeared in the castle overnight, with at least one mirror at every corner.

In order to prevent meeting love around the corner, the school also took great pains, and I don’t know how they got so many mirrors overnight.

However, neither Dumbledore nor Professor McGonagall disclosed the basilisk to prevent students from becoming more panicked after learning about the basilisk. The investigation of the bathroom is also in full swing without telling the students. It seems that it is only a matter of time before the secret room is found.
