Peace returns to Hogwarts Castle—not in the physical sense, of course.
The threat of the monster in the secret room was briefly lifted, but the castle was filled with the sound of roosters crowing almost every moment. On the first day of resumption of classes, no student was late because of oversleeping. After all, the biological clock of the rooster
It's much more accurate than the little wizards.
In the castle, everyone has to carry a cage to go to class, eat, and take a shower. In the cage, the big rooster with shiny fur has become everyone's 'talisman'.
At the same time, in the morning, lunch and evening every day, before the students eat, the magic gramophones will emit a huge rooster crow, and the huge crow that echoes in the castle becomes the new meal signal.
The benefits of this are obvious. A week after classes resumed, no one in Hogwarts suffered any misfortune because of the monster in the Chamber of Secrets.
Of course, there are still some shortcomings.
For example, in class, every professor has to keep his voice loud and clear so that the students can hear his lecture clearly - creatures like roosters will crow after their own kind.
Listening to spells with earplugs has become a new favorite among students at Hogwarts. Put aside all the pranks, spells and magic toys!
Even the Weasley brothers stopped playing with their beloved dung eggs - the whole castle smelled like chicken shit.
In order to avoid this smell, the bubble head charm became popular again.
As the initiator and actual initiator of this idea, although Sean has suffered a lot, he believes that in the face of precious life, noise and odor can be tolerated.
He even thought of another method, and then Professor McGonagall agreed...
The next day, spiders in transparent boxes were also placed near various bathrooms in the school and next to known water pipes. The basilisk was afraid of the crowing of roosters, but it was the natural enemy of spiders.
There is always some strange connection between natural enemies. Although the spiders tried to escape in panic, the transparent box blocked them.
The purpose of this method is obvious. Once the spiders in a certain place are particularly panicked, it means that the basilisk is nearby. Professor McGonagall issued a notice. If anyone sees something wrong with the spiders, stay away immediately, and then inform the professor.
.
However, this idea is almost giving Ron a nervous breakdown. The poor Weasley boy has not even dared to go to the bathroom recently. If he accidentally sees a spider, his screams can even drown out the crowing of a rooster.
Originally, according to Sean's wish, everyone should have a glass box and raise spiders in it. But considering people like Ron who are extremely afraid of spiders, we finally compromised.
Of course, Sean himself was not afraid at all. He specially made a small glass box, filled it with a spider, and put it in the inner pocket of his robe.
Dave kept an eye on the movement in the box for him, and would notify him at any time if something was wrong with the spider.
A biological alarm and a threatening biological attack weapon, that's it. Sean still doesn't believe it. Under such circumstances, the heir to the secret room dares to release the basilisk.
The only thing that makes Sean a little uneasy is that he has not seen Dumbledore these days. Knowing the method of entering the secret room, Dumbledore, who has the Phoenix Sister, should still be very difficult to deal with a basilisk.
simple.
However, Dumbledore never came back, and Sean had no chance to report the location of the secret room to him.
…
Big raindrops hit the windows, and the cold air and humidity lingered outside the entire castle, forming a strong contrast with the fiery atmosphere inside. With so many sharp-mouthed generals who love to chirp, how could it not be hot?
"Daisy, if you feed Poppy any more, he will be strangled to death." Hermione said helplessly to Daisy in the bustling Ravenclaw lounge.
Daisy stuck out her tongue and said with some embarrassment: "Bobby's crow in the morning was a little quieter than yesterday. I'm worried that he didn't have enough to eat..."
Bobby is the big golden-red rooster that Daisy was assigned. The girl named it and took good care of it.
Sean on the side poured some jade pieces into his mouth and said lazily: "Is there such a possibility? I'm just saying it's possible. Daisy, you fed it too much feed yesterday and it was so full.
Is it better to crow than if you don’t have the strength to crow?”
Daisy blinked her beautiful big eyes: "Is that so?"
"Yes." Sean and Hermione nodded at the same time.
"Oh, okay," Daisy accepted their suggestion, and then apologized a little apologetically to Poppy, who had eyes wide open in the cage, "Please forgive me, Poppy, your supper is canceled today."
"Trust me, it will thank you." Sean shrugged.
Hermione shook her head and changed the subject: "Sean, that spider was also your idea, right?"
"That's right, a biological alarm. Isn't it much better than some warning magic?" Sean said with some pride.
Sean was extremely satisfied with his clever approach.
"Oh, then you'd better not spread the word," Hermione shifted in her chair so that she could lean back more comfortably. "If Ron knows, he will definitely kill you."
Sean waved his hand casually: "Ron will get used to it. This is also equivalent to spider desensitization therapy, right?"
While the three of them were chatting, someone walked in from the passage in the lounge.
That's Sean's roommate, Terry Boot.
As soon as Terry came in, he shouted: "All the roosters that Hagrid took care of are dead!"
Oh? Sean narrowed his eyes. Could the heir to the secret room be tempted to take action?
"What's going on, Terry?"
"I just happened to meet Hagrid at the entrance of the auditorium. He was talking to Professor McGonagall, and he was holding two dead roosters in his hand. Someone killed those roosters on a rainy day!"
Other Ravenclaw students also shouted: "That means this method is effective. The rooster can effectively restrain the monster in the secret room."
"That's right, the heir to the secret room is in a hurry!"
"But, don't we have no new roosters to add?" A junior Ravenclaw girl said worriedly, "Many people have never had pets, and roosters are not as vigorous as toads. Many people's
The rooster is already very sick."
One stone stirred up a thousand waves. After the girl said something, everyone frowned. They didn't know how long this incident would last. What if their rooster died and there was no new one to replace it?
what to do.
Sean raised his eyebrows and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.
