Since returning to Hogwarts, Albert has been thinking about how to arrange the basilisk clearly. In fact, he also knows that if you think too much and plan too much, it will be difficult to say whether it will actually be used.
But Albert still tried his best to perfect his plan. After all, he was not Harry Potter. He did not have the halo of the protagonist, so he could not rush through it without making sure that he was safe.
"I heard that Granger was attacked."
Lee Jordan told everyone the bad news and glanced at Albert secretly. He knew that the relationship between Albert and Granger was not bad.
"Who said that?"
Albert closed the book, looked up at Lee Jordan, and then glanced at the corner of the common room, where Harry and Ron were playing wizard chess.
Lee Jordan followed Albert's gaze, and when he saw Harry and Ron, he understood what Albert meant.
No one understands Hermione's current situation better than Harry and Ron
After returning to school after Christmas, the school began to talk about Hermione's disappearance, and everyone naturally assumed that she had been attacked.
Hermione was a Muggle wizard and was on the Slytherin heir's attack list. Now that she was missing and didn't go to class, she was naturally attacked.
After hesitating again and again, Lee Jordan asked Harry and Ron for confirmation.
"Hermione?"
After learning that everyone thought Hermione had been attacked, Harry and Ron both said with embarrassment, "Hermione is ill and is being treated by Madam Pomfrey in the school hospital. It will probably take some time before she recovers and is discharged."
"
"Did you already know that?"
Lee Jordan was very depressed, but what made him even more depressed was that among the few people, he was the only one who had not finished his holiday homework.
"I didn't expect that there would be times when you would need to learn from our paper." Fred and George patted Lee Jordan's shoulders hard and laughed extremely evilly.
"I knew it the day I returned to school." Albert added, "I went to the school hospital to visit Granger."
However, most students still don't understand what's going on.
Many people believed that Hermione had been attacked, and many people even gloated over it.
Harry Potter's archenemy, Draco Malfoy is one of them.
This guy is still regretting that it was not Hermione who was killed this time, but it happened to be that he was hit by Albert.
"I thought you would teach those bastards a lesson?" Fred and George were eager to try. They had long disliked the Malfoy boy.
Neither the Weasley twins have forgotten that Lucius Malfoy tried his best to drive their father out of the Ministry of Magic. Fortunately, those plots failed in the end, otherwise their father would have been unemployed.
It was a disaster for the poor Weasley family.
If they hadn't happened to hear it, they wouldn't have known that Malfoy was so vicious and wanted someone in the school to die. No matter how much he hated others, he shouldn't be like this.
"Their whole family is a dark wizard. Dark wizards are usually ruthless. It's normal to think that way." Fred disliked Draco Malfoy very much. He even suspected that Lucius might be the mastermind behind the scenes.
Everyone.
"I have foreseen his future." Albert looked at Malfoy's leaving back and said softly, "He won't be able to live for long."
Fred, George and Li Jordan were all stunned, their expressions became very strange, and they suddenly felt sympathy for Malfoy.
Albert predicted you would be unlucky, how could you not be unlucky?
They all wanted to continue asking, but Albert didn't want to say anything.
According to the plot of the novel, the Malfoy family would encounter a lot of bad luck one after another, so Albert didn't take Malfoy to heart at all.
This kind of thing is not worth wasting too much thought on. He needs to deal with the basilisk first and get the rewards from the panel mission first.
"Aren't you going to the library with us?" Li Jordan's tone was a bit sour. He originally thought that he could ask Albert to give him some advice, but the other party actually... ran away on his own!
"No, I plan to go to Hagrid's place." Albert separated from a few people near the library.
When passing outside the campus hospital on the second floor, I saw many students walking around outside the hospital ward, trying to determine whether Hermione had really been attacked.
What a group of curious guys.
When they arrived at the hunting lodge, Hagrid was adding firewood to his fireplace to make the room warmer. The unlucky Grindylow looked very bad and seemed not very adaptable to life in the water tank.
"This guy tried to escape from the water tank and was almost scorched by the fire." Hagrid told Albert what happened during the Christmas vacation and thanked him for the Christmas gift.
Albert's Christmas gift moved Hagrid, who had not felt the warmth of home for a long time.
"Have you solved that ball?"
"Well, I've improved it again."
Albert took out two detection balls from his pocket and introduced them to Hagrid: "The big one has a very wide detection range, and the other small one has a detection range of only one or two hundred feet."
However, because of Grindylow, both detection balls responded.
"I think you may need to move faster before this poor bastard dies, or I will have to get another one." Hagrid reminded him casually while pouring tea for Albert.
.
He really wanted to find out the culprit with his own hands, but unfortunately this wish may not be realized.
"I will."
Next, Hagrid cooperated with Albert to test the detection ball. Although the range was narrowed, the results were still not optimistic and needed to be modified.
In fact, not only the detection ball, but also other props are not ready yet.
Sometimes, Albert even had the idea of throwing the diary directly to Dumbledore.
This time, mission experience is not easy to earn!
Even if you are timid, there is no shame.
There are very few wizards who really dare to face the basilisk. Without the aura of the protagonist of Harry Potter to protect them, they basically stare at everyone to death. The eyes of the basilisk are too dangerous, and no one is stupid enough to want to die.
"It would be great if I could also raise a phoenix."
Albert sighed lightly, the phoenix was very capable of controlling the basilisk.
If Phoenix is his helper, he is confident that he can defeat the basilisk alone.
It's a pity... On the way back to the castle, Albert remembered another thing. Fox flew away after Dumbledore died.
It would be nice if... I could let it follow me.
No, it should be said that you invite it to your home as a guest, and you can take care of its food and drink and take good care of it. As long as you order Fox and provide some tears and feathers, that will be fine.
Fantasy is beautiful, but reality is often very cruel.
"Sure enough, it's not that easy to trigger the mission." Albert stared at his mission panel and sighed softly. If he could use the power of the phoenix, he believed that he could take care of the basilisk in minutes.
Now, I can only hope that my cocks can be put to some use.
"Let the house elves raise more." Albert muttered. Since the book said that basilisks were afraid of the crow of roosters, he didn't believe that roosters were really useless.
Since the quality is not enough, we must make up the quantity.
One day, if the basilisk really dares to attack him, he will dare to release a bunch of roosters to block his gun, and give the basilisk an unexpected surprise.
Thinking about that scene is... very interesting.
Even a basilisk can stand in the way of the conspiracy and calculations of thoughtful people.
The basilisk's skin and fangs are both of high value.
If my eyes weren't blind, I might be able to make another dark magic item similar to the Banshee's Wail.
