Chapter 189 The Digging Basilisk
Chapter 189 The Digging Basilisk
"You really believe Potter's guess?" Snape asked.
Standing in the exhibition hall of the basilisk in the Hall Zoo, looking at the giant snake excitedly crawling towards them in the glass room, Alice sighed and said, "Don't you believe it too? At least half-believed. Otherwise, I wouldn't take the initiative to propose Come to the zoo."
Except for Green, Crown was the last to come into contact with the basilisk.For wizards, the crown must be very guarded, but for magical creatures or Slytherin's pets, the crown as the heir of Slytherin should reveal something more or less unconsciously.
"Of course, the possibility of this is very high." Snape frowned fiercely as he watched the basilisk foolishly crashing into the tempered glass. "The premise is that the snake has a normal IQ."
They don't know whether the IQ of the basilisk is normal or not, but at least the snake is a bit stupid.
"It's also fortunate that we have a snake language translator, otherwise it would be too conspicuous to ask for leave and take Harry out." Alice said and took out a crystal ball from her wide sleeve.
The news from Big Malfoy was that Draco had indeed joined the Death Eaters, so although Draco voluntarily admitted his identity as a spy, for safety reasons, they still tried to avoid drawing his attention.
Snape didn't answer, since Draco had been in a bad mood ever since he learned that he had the Dark Mark.Alice knew that he didn't want Hogwarts students, especially Slytherin students, to get involved in such a dangerous thing.
"There's nothing you can do about it. The Malfoy family is still a bit too high-profile," Alice comforted. "Draco probably didn't do it voluntarily. His identity and family are there. From Voldemort's point of view, Draco should have For his use."
Maybe it was because Voldemort disappeared too suddenly and the Death Eaters were defeated too quickly. Even if Big Malfoy was not sure, he probably believed that Voldemort had passed away or at least would not make a comeback.As one of the few Death Eaters who escaped punishment, the Malfoy family was somewhat proud.
The result of pampering children and showing off their wealth is that the former Death Eater colleagues who suffered in Azkaban will not give the Malfoy family a good face. The resurrected Voldemort doubts the loyalty of the Malfoy family and intends to use up the last bit of value.
"It won't be Draco or any other student." After a while, Snape said painfully.
Alice doesn't really enjoy being a teacher that much, and her ultimate goal is not to be a teacher, but when you're in that position, caring for students is almost automatic.Thinking of the students who were studying hard or playing tricks in her class, and thinking of the disgusting Dark Mark that might appear on their arms, she felt sick.
Little wizards are at the most carefree age, they can study hard to pursue their dreams, they can play wantonly and waste their youth, but the last thing they should do is to insult and insult dirty wars.
"It suddenly occurred to me that you took me to the principal's office the night I first entered school." Alice suddenly mentioned this event that was too long ago.
Snape finally showed a smile: "Yes, I am very impressed. After all, Miss Hall is the first student in the history of Hogwarts who proposed to skip a grade."
boom--
It was the sound of the basilisk smashing its head against the glass, and it was obviously impatient to wait.
"If it is not forced, who would want to end their student career and leave Hogwarts one year early?" Alice shrugged, stepped forward and patted the glass soothingly, "Principal Dumbledore started He tried his best to stop me, because he thought I would miss the good school time.”
As she spoke, she and Snape stepped aside and found the small door leading directly into the basilisk's room.
White mist gradually filled the entire crystal ball.
[There are so few people today~] The basilisk said half coquettishly, [Are you here to bring me delicious food? ]
"Yes, but first we want to ask you a few questions," Alice said with a smile, "and when you have answered the questions, you can eat whatever you want."
The basilisk patted its tail excitedly: [Question, question! ]
"And then?" Snape ignored the noisy basilisk, and looked sideways at Alice, "Dumbledore tried his best to stop you, then what?"
"Then I expressed my determination, and the principal agreed." Alice replied.
"..." Snape asked suspiciously, "So what are you talking about now?"
Alice touched the basilisk's head and said softly: "I just thought of it suddenly, maybe Principal Dumbledore is not as profit-seeking and unreasonable as you imagined. You see, I'm just a first-year student with no background." As a freshman, the headmaster is still worried that I won't be able to enjoy my beautiful youth, let alone Harry. If it is not forced, the headmaster also hopes that Harry can enjoy the ordinary and beautiful seven years."
"It's just that you think so." Snape said, his tone softened a lot.
The basilisk patted the ground again, stirring up bursts of dust: [Question, problem!Eat, eat!Mice and cakes! ]
Why do mice and cakes go together?Alice couldn't understand but didn't intend to ask, she took out another piece of parchment with a pattern on it, and just as she was about to let the basilisk identify it, she remembered that the basilisk was still blindfolded.
"How could I make such a low-level mistake?" She was a little dumbfounded. For the sake of her own safety, the basilisk had to be blindfolded, and the blindfolded basilisk could not recognize the pattern at all, so it entered a dead end.
"Damn it!" Snape also noticed the problem, "We can only hope that this stupid snake isn't too stupid to understand the description."
[Wooooow, I'm not stupid!You call me stupid, I will never give you extra venom again! ] The basilisk rolled twice on the ground, and the ground shook as a result.
Leaving aside the basilisk's shocking way of expressing grievances, Alice turned to Snape and asked, "Venom, what's extra? Don't I give you the basilisk's venom and scales every month?"
"Oh, wasn't I researching potions a while ago?" Snape explained calmly, "I need a lot of basilisk venom for analysis, and I thought that the basilisk is in the zoo anyway, so I can get it myself. It also saves you from making an extra trip."
The explanation was sound, and Alice accepted it.She then looked at the basilisk: "When you first came into contact with Diadem, the heir of Slytherin, did he create anything special, or told you anything in particular? Is that thing small and round? round?"
The basilisk stopped rolling, lying on the ground, tilting its head, thinking carefully.
"Fortunately, it understands and can think. Unfortunately, it probably can't think of anything." Snape had an expected expression on his face.
Seeing Snape looking at herself, Alice immediately retorted: "You suggested to look for clues here."
[Hiss~, I remember, I was exhausted at the time~] The basilisk raised its head, [I dug out the Slytherin prefect badge after digging for a long time. ]
