Chapter 156 Looking for Sirius
Chapter 156 Looking for Sirius
;
"You are right, Mr. Scamander, but the premise is, where can we find him?" Professor McGonagall said after sighing.
"Professor, I think I have a way to find him," Rolf said hesitantly.
"You have a way." After listening to his words, everyone in the room looked at him, seeming to be curious about what his method was.
Rolf took out a locket, which was the Slytherin locket he had stolen from the Black Mansion.
Everyone in the room looked at him curiously, as if they didn't understand how helpful this little necklace would be in finding someone.
"I" Rolf didn't know how to explain his ability to predict, so he had to blame it all on this locket.
"I found Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets and obtained Slytherin's inheritance from it, including this Slytherin locket."
Professor McGonagall interrupted him and said: "Mr. Scamander, where did you find the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets?"
"Okay, Minerva, we will talk about the Chamber of Secrets later. Let's first listen to what effect this locket has." Professor Dumbledore came to the rescue in time, and his tacit understanding with Scamander was perfect.
"This locket has certain prophetic abilities and can help us give certain hints when we are unable to make a choice." Rolf opened his eyes and told lies.
Everyone was extremely surprised after hearing this. After all, no one knew what the real Slytherin locket looked like. It only existed in legends.
And after they heard about this effect for the first time, everyone felt that it was unclear how powerful it was.
"Start your show, Mr. Scamander." Snape said with a smile, but looking at his eyes that were staring at Harry, one could imagine that he was eager to finish these messes as soon as possible.
Rolf stretched out the locket in front of himself, then activated the prophecy in the sea of consciousness, and said silently in his heart: "I want to find the specific location of Sirius Black."
The locket was spinning in front of Rolf, but Rolf promised that he really didn't use any force.
"Follow it," Harry said uncertainly behind him.
"Maybe, it's my first time to use it too." Rolf was not lying this time. It was indeed his first time to use prophecy, but there was a feeling telling him that he had to find an item to assist him.
The professor and several young wizards followed Rolf and walked in the direction guided by the Slytherin Locket. The young wizards they met on the way looked at them curiously.
By the time Rolf reached the gate of Hogwarts Castle, he was followed by a large number of young wizards watching the fun.
At this time, Professor Snape felt that he was pushed by someone, and immediately turned his head with a very sad expression. The little wizard behind him was frightened and cried out.
"Now, go back to the lounges of your respective colleges immediately and don't talk about anything that happened in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class on the owl. I don't want to repeat it a second time."
After hearing this, the little wizards immediately dispersed with a bang. Not long after, there was no one watching the fun behind them.
Sometimes, Snape plays a very important role in chasing people away and clearing the field.
Afterwards, the group of people left the castle, and under the guidance of the locket, they actually walked in front of the Whomping Willow.
This was the first time Rolf and the others saw the Whomping Willow. After all, in their second year, thanks to Malfoy, they successfully boarded the Hogwarts Express.
"He has been hiding here" Professor Dumbledore asked seriously.
"I don't know, but the locket did lead us here." Rolf also said a little embarrassed. After all, he was not sure whether there was a bug in the prophecy or pointed the wrong way.
Dumbledore nodded towards Professor McGonagall and Professor Snape, and then the two of them walked towards Hogsmeade Village. The few wizards who looked at them were confused and didn't understand what they were doing. .
The branches of the Whomping Willow are swaying, as if in a strong wind. The branches are swaying back and forth, preventing anyone from moving forward any further.
But Slytherin's locket pointed directly into the ground. Although Rolf knew that it led to the Shrieking Shack, he didn't know where the hole was.
At this time, Professor Dumbledore said: "Come with me, I think I know where he is." Then he walked towards a cave.
After Professor Dumbledore gently stroked the tree trunk, the Whomping Willow stopped being so irritable and stood there like an ordinary tree.
Rolf could see clearly that there was a knot on the trunk of the tree, and it was Professor Dumbledore who stroked it there that calmed the Whomping Willow.
It was a very short tunnel, similar to the previous slip that led to the secret room. I originally thought I could see the magical sight of Professor Dumbledore climbing the tunnel, but he suddenly transformed into a fiery red bird. .
As expected, he was indeed a master of transfiguration. Rolf's hopes for a good show were once again dashed.
Rolf and the others didn't have such awesome skills, so they had to lie down on the ground and slide in headfirst.
"Where is the exit of this tunnel?" Harry asked breathlessly behind Rolf, but no one could tell him the answer.
They moved forward as quickly as possible, keeping their bodies close to the ground. Professor Dumbledore was in front of them, his wings flapping up and down, disappearing and appearing.
This passage seemed endless, feeling at least as long as the one leading to the secret chamber.
Their breathing began to quicken, and there were bursts of pain in their chests. Perhaps it was because they were crawling forward with their heads lowered and bent over, and it was a little difficult to breathe.
Then, the tunnel began to rise. After a while, the tunnel became winding and Professor Dumbledore disappeared.
But fortunately, through a small opening, Rolf and the others could see a blur of light.
They stopped, took a breath, and moved forward from the side. Hermione behind them raised her wand to shine on the road to see what was ahead.
What appeared before them was a house, a messy, dusty house.
The wallpaper had fallen off the walls, there were stains all over the floor, every piece of furniture was broken, as if it had been vandalized, and the windows were all boarded up.
They forced themselves out of the cave and looked around.There were two people standing in the room at this time. In addition to the known Professor Dumbledore, they actually saw Professor Lupine who was "forced" to take leave.
"Hey, Professor, why are you here?" Harry poked his head out from behind Rolf and asked curiously.
"Emm, it's nothing, what are you doing?" He dodges his eyes and quickly changes the subject.
"Professor, you may not believe it. In the Defense Against the Dark Arts class when you were away, we found Peter Pedro, the missing hero. He was actually the big rat from the Ron family."
Harry pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose and said slightly jokingly.
"So now we are going to find Sirius and ask what happened back then. Do you want to come with us to see it?" Professor Dumbledore continued.
Lupine's eyes widened after hearing this. What was going on? But curiosity drove him to nod dully, completely forgetting what he was about to transform into.
A door on the right was open at this time, leading to a dark passage, and Slytherin's locket was pointing towards that passage.
