Chapter 634： Curiosity killed the cat

Albert had never thought that Hermione would be attacked at this time.

In his opinion, Tom Riddle's first target should be Guidro Lockhart, not other Muggle wizards.

At least, Albert, who is struggling with panel tasks, has a higher probability of being attacked than others.

Hermione's attack should have been accidental.

Here, Nick, who was almost headless, also happened to save a certain Hufflepuff student, and the ghost now happened to save Hermione, which felt a bit like a historical correction.

However, Nick, who was almost headless, was petrified, always giving Albert an indescribable sense of weirdness.

Is it really just accidental?

Albert actually didn't know.

This kind of weird feeling will breed, and it is more derived from some Sao operations of the time converter.

After determining the location of Ginny Weasley, Albert took out the detection ball to make sure that the basilisk had returned to the secret room, and he was relieved to go to the school hospital to visit the petrified Hermione.

He ran into Harry and Ron in the corridor outside the school hospital. The two looked sad, apparently not thinking that Hermione would be attacked.

Albert stopped Harry and asked, "Where was Hermione found?"

"The third floor, near the corridor leading to the second floor." Harry saw that there was no one left and right, and said in a low voice, "I heard that voice again."

"It seems that my guess is correct. Okay, Harry, don't be sad. You should think for the better. Hermione is only petrified and is already very lucky." Albert reached out and patted Harry on the shoulder. Comforted: "At least, I don't have to worry about being attacked again."

When Harry and Ron heard this, they were speechless. They didn't expect Albert to comfort people so much.

If you will not comfort others, don't talk!

The two did not understand Albert's meaning, and they were undoubtedly lucky to be attacked without losing their lives.

After separating from Harry and Ron, Albert went to the school hospital alone.

If it wasn't for Mrs. Pomfrey to be very familiar with and say that she was a good friend of Hermione's, I am afraid it would not be a five-minute visit to the doctor, but would have been kicked out of the school hospital.

Albert walked to the bed and looked at Hermione, who was lying on the bed stiff. The girl's eyes were wide, full of horror, and it was obvious that she had witnessed the ugly basilisk with her own eyes.

If I change to myself, will my legs become weakened by the basilisk?

After leaving the school hospital, Albert looked at the panel task that was triggered, and was satisfied. He came to the school hospital, in fact, just to see if he could find any clues, and it would be best to trigger the panel task.

sleeping Beauty?

Well, the task is simple.

Probably it was to wake up Hermione before Snape deployed a powerful restorative, and the reward was also very average. Some experience and favorability were a task that was better than nothing.

Albert had a powerful restorative in his hand, which he could drink at any time to wake her up.

Of course, Albert didn't plan to let Hermione release the petrochemicals to wake up now, at least until Tom Riddle's diary was destroyed, otherwise the petrochemicals removed early would only bring her life in danger.

When Albert was about to return to the library after leaving the school hospital, he saw a glove waving at him in the air, then made a hook and led him to an empty classroom that no one used. There was no one inside, but there was a piece of parchment on the dusty table.

There really is a problem with this!

Albert saw the glove pointing at the parchment on the table and motioned him to read the content on it. Then he lost his strength and fell on the parchment.

When he lifted his foot into the classroom and reached out to pick up the parchment, his eyes were drawn to something in the corner of the classroom.

Albert turned his head to look, and was frightened by the shadow in the corner, pulling out his wand directly.

When he looked at it, he knew at a glance that it was Nick who was almost headless.

This Mr. Ghost no longer appeared milky white and transparent, but became black and smoky, looking like a hideous evil spirit.

No way, Nick's head fell in half and looked terrifying.

This Mr. Ghost was also petrified, lying motionless, his body suspended six inches from the ground. There was an unconcealable panic on his face, but Albert could see from the panic a somewhat heroic determination to die.

Albert picked up the parchment and began to read the contents. The parchment read in scribbled words: 4:30 in the afternoon, the third floor of the West Tower, one circle, the map.

"Sure enough, there is a problem." Albert put the parchment paper back into his pocket, which was undoubtedly a reminder that he left for himself to return to the past to save Hermione.

Very weird!

However, Albert did not think about it. He took out the time converter and prepared to go back an hour before, recalling the information on the paper in his mind:

4:30 PM should be the time when Hermione was attacked.

The third floor of West Tower should refer to Nick's position.

A lap should mean returning one hour ago.

The map should refer to the live point map.

I specifically reminded myself on the parchment that I would definitely use it.

Albert put away the time converter, slipped his gloves into his pocket, and hurriedly walked towards the boys' dormitory. He knew where the twins had put their spot maps.

After returning to the Gryffindor common room, Albert found that it had been fried, and everyone was discussing the attack on both Hermione and Nick, who was almost headless.

Strange to say, people seem to care more about the attack on Nick.

Kenneth Toller approached Albert almost when he returned to the lounge, hoping to continue cooperating with him about the amulet, Albert found a reason to shirk it until the evening, and now he has no time to wrestle with him. .

After picking up the spot map from the drawer, Albert used the time converter to go back one hour ago.

Going downstairs, I accidentally glanced at the corner of the common room. Ginny is still in the common room, and I don't know if Tom has taken control of it now.

Hermione is here too, seeming to be talking to Harry and Ron. Everything looks very peaceful. Who can guess that there will be an attack soon?

Albert is a little doubtful, could this attack be caused by something he did?

He quickly suppressed all his emotions and quickly left the Gryffindor common room to find Nick, who was almost headless. He had to convince Nick to protect Hermione from the basilisk.

Nick, who was almost headless, was not difficult to find. Just around the third floor of the West Tower, Albert quickly found Nick's specific location through the live spot map.

As he hurried over, he found Nick was talking to a female ghost.

Albert hesitated to step forward and disturb the opponent, but after seeing Nick's gradual distance from his back, he finally couldn't help but stepped forward quickly and stopped Nick who was almost headless.

"What's the matter with me, Albert." Nick took off his head like a top hat and greeted Albert.

"Yes, sir, there is something that only the heroic Sir Nicholas can do." Albert did not forget to compliment the other party.

"Oh, what's the matter?" Nick became interested, and Albert's flattery made him very useful.

"Do you know about the attack happening in the school?" Albert asked.

"I know." Nick nodded.

"Soon, there will be another attack in the school." Albert took out the time converter from his pocket and stretched it out in front of Nick. "This is a time converter that can bring people back several hours. before."

"So, how many hours are you from?" Nick asked suspiciously.

"It's exactly an hour later." Albert raised his index finger to his lips, made a shushing motion, and said softly, "Remember to keep me secret. This is something you couldn't tell anyone. Of course, the ghost No way."

"I will." Nick nodded and promised. "What do you need me to do?"

"I need Sir Nicholas to save a friend of mine at a critical moment." Albert solemnly asked.

"I'm just a ghost," Nick reminded.

"I know." Albert explained. "The attacker was actually a basilisk. It was a monster that Slytherin had left in the secret room. Someone released it."

"You just said... the basilisk!" Nick's voice was a little stuttered.

"Yes, the basilisk, if you look directly into the eyes of the basilisk, my friend Hermione will lose her life, but if you block Hermione in time, you can avoid the death of a life and let her be just the basilisk. His eyes are petrified."

"Don't worry, the basilisk can't hurt you. Looking directly at it will only temporarily lose your mobility at best, and you will save a life." Albert is trying to convince Nick, "Only the brave Gryffin Many people have the courage to face the basilisk. In the near future, you will indeed do it, successfully saving Hermione's life."

"Well, you are right, not all ghosts have that courage." Nick agreed to help.

"One more thing, please help me keep it secret, otherwise I will be severely punished for violating a large number of Ministry of Magic laws." Albert did not forget to exhort.

"I will." Nick patted his chest and said he was willing to help. He also realized that he was doing a great thing.

Yes, they are trying to save the life of a certain student, and this can only be done by the brave Gryffindor ghost. The most important thing is that he succeeded, which is very important.

After Albert's flicker, Nick agreed to help. He hurried to the third floor of the school and waited for Hermione's arrival by the corridor according to Albert's plan.

It is now half past four in the afternoon, and there are still fifteen minutes.

While Albert was working to save Hermione, Hermione was secretly following Ginny Weasley and leaving the Gryffindor common room, trying to figure out what Ron's sister was doing.

In fact, Albert's guess was correct, and it was really caused by his return to the past.

Not long ago, Albert caught Hermione's eyes when he hurriedly left the Gryffindor common room. That accidentally swiping on Ginny Weasley happened to be noticed by Hermione.

Hermione was curious as to why Albert paid special attention to Ginny. Obviously there was a reason, after all, the two were not familiar.

Although Hermione didn't know why, after she secretly observed Ginny, she soon discovered Ginny's abnormality, which was probably the reason why Albert would accidentally glance at Ginny.

Although Hermione didn't understand what was going on, she quickly connected it to Ginny's unusual behavior at school.

Ginny often had nightmares, emotional breakdowns, her face pale as if she was sick, and she was sad when Filch's cat was attacked... everything proved Ginny's abnormal behavior.

Moreover, Riddle's diary was stolen. It was a student of Gryffindor who stole the diary. Albert thought that there was a problem with the diary. Albert noticed Ginny. Maybe he had discovered Ginny's long ago. Behaving abnormally, suspicious of Ginny?

Could Ginny Weasley be the thief who stole the diary?

There is another possibility.

There was an absurd idea in Hermione's mind. Ginny was related to the secret room. She knew who opened the secret room, even Ginny opened the secret room.

How can it be!

But Albert would never be aimless, he would suspect that Ginny must have a reason.

Ginny's expression just now was also very wrong.

Hermione couldn't help stopping. She felt that she should tell Harry and Ron what she knew, but she was also a little curious about what Ginny was going to do. If she returned to the common room, she would definitely lose her. Ginny is Ron's sister, and Ron may not believe her own words.

In the end, Hermione still followed Ginny secretly, planning to figure out what Ginny was up to. But she didn't know that Ginny Weasley knew someone was following herself.

Yes, Tom knew someone was stalking him, but he didn’t care, especially after learning from Ginny Weasley’s mind that the person stalking him was a Muggle wizard or a friend of Harry Potter, Tom Other thoughts arose, planning to summon the basilisk to kill the opponent.

Presumably after the death of his friend, Harry Potter will desperately pursue this incident. At that time, he believes that he will meet with Harry again, and he will have the opportunity to figure out the reason for Voldemort's failure in the past and kill Harry completely. In the cradle.

As for Lockhart's kind of despicable guy, Tom Riddle originally planned to kill him this time, but the appearance of Hermione behind him made Tom change his mind.

After all, Lockhart still has some value, allowing him to guide Harry to find the secret room, and then just kill him together.

If Lockhart is allowed to die too easily, it is obviously not in line with Voldemort's style of doing things, guiding people to the secret room, and then **** the other party, he has the final say.

Ginny quickened her pace and easily dumped Hermione on the second floor. She sneaked into the secret room and controlled the basilisk to attack Hermione.

Tom didn't know that everything he did was seen by Albert through the map of live spots.

To be honest, Albert was actually very surprised when he saw Hermione following Ginny on the Live Point map. He didn't expect Hermione to suspect Ginny at all. It really should not be underestimated!

It was Gryffindor's dying character that was very problematic. If it weren't for her, Hermione would be cold.

What curiosity killed the cat!
