Harry Potter’s Book of Sin
Chapter 32
Ravenclaw College, an academy that focuses on erudition and intelligence.
When Maca was just enrolling and performing the sorting ceremony, the sorting hat seemed to be the first thing he considered for him.This shows that, in some respects, he does fit well with Ravenclaw.
At this moment, after careful consideration, he felt that he had to find someone to establish a relationship first.If someone asks in the future, there is at least an excuse.
Well, by the way, you can pave the way for Luna before she goes to school.
Let’s talk about who Maca is most interested in at Ravenclaw Academy.This person is not the curse professor Flevey who is also the dean, nor the other students in school, but the ghost of Ravenclaw Tower-Ms. Gray.
This is not only because she has been at Hogwarts long enough, but also because she must be able to tell many ancient secrets about Ravenclaw College.
Ms. Gray is the ghost of Ravenclaw, born "Helena Ravenclaw", and is the biological daughter of "Roina Ravenclaw".She stole her mother's golden crown, but died in the hands of Barrow who had a crush on her.Although she has committed unfilial piety and injustice, she is always just a pure and vain person.
If you want to get some secrets about Ravenclaw College, it is obviously more appropriate to start from here.
Regarding Ravenclaw, Maca had read some records about the founder of Hogwarts from some books shortly after entering school.To be honest, among the four founders of Hogwarts, Ravenclaw and Slytherin have the highest magical achievements.
Unlike Salazar Slytherin's applied school bias, Rowena Ravenclaw is a true theoretical school.
As a magician, Ravenclaw completed a lot of theoretical research in his life, which is exactly what Maca has been pursuing.
"Ms. Gray-Ms. Gray, please wait a moment!" Maca asked the fat monk ghost in Hufflepuff where she was and found her all the way.
Helena inherited her mother's appearance and was once a beautiful woman with long curly hair.Although she has become a ghost now, she also maintains the appearance of her youth.
Well, it's just that this beauty is a bit transparent, but it doesn't get in the way.
"Ms. Gray, can you wait a moment?" Maca found that people seemed reluctant to respond.
Helena was called by him repeatedly, and finally stopped.She turned around and hung a few inches above the ground, looking at Maca indifferently.
"Beautiful Ms. Gray," Maca stood still and gave an old gift gracefully, "I don't know if I can delay your time. There is one thing I want to tell you."
She stared at Maca for a while, then nodded with a slightly arrogant look.
Maca leaned slightly again, expressing his gratitude, even he himself felt that it would be funny for a child to do these actions.But he knew that Helena was a woman who liked others to respect her very much, and her behavior might win him some favors.
"That's it." Maca said in a whisper, "When I checked the books in the library, I found some accounts about Ravenclaw College. Yes, I already know your Identity."
As Maca said, he kept paying attention to Helena's expression.When he saw her frowning slightly, but did not refuse the topic, he understood that this was a good start.
"As for you, I accidentally heard something from the bloody Barrow..."
"I think there is nothing wrong with your choice." Maca said cautiously. "It is the nature that everyone should have to chase the truth and glory. It represents extraordinary wisdom and supreme pursuit."
"Oh, yes--" Helena suddenly chuckled, "Do you think I would say that?"
Maca was taken aback when he heard the words.
"Yes, you are right," she continued, "I always think so, but it's a pity that I've heard similar things again."
"And I don't want to listen to it a second time." Helena put away her smile and looked at Maca coldly.
"Have you heard it again? Who said--" Maca pondered in her heart, and suddenly understood that she might have missed something.
"I don't know where you heard about it, but I'm sure there is no in the library—"
"Is it Tom Riddle?" Maca said suddenly.
If Voldemort found the golden crown back then, Maca hadn't thought much about it before.But now it seems that Voldemort, like him, chose Helena as a breakthrough.
Helena looked at Maca-she didn't know how Maca guessed it, she should know that.
"Ms. Gray, I think the meaning I want to express is completely different from that person." Maca changed his gentle tone just now and became a bit more intense.
"Tom Riddle just coaxed you to get the golden crown, but I am different." Maca said, "I truly believe that your behavior deserves the praise of every wizard for this. And I have no respect for the golden crown Any need, I just want to meet with a beautiful and intelligent woman like you."
Maca can see that Helena's expression has changed slightly, it is because she has a sense of identification with her numb compliment.
"I hope you know that a friend of mine will enroll next year. I think she will be assigned to Ravenclaw because of her beauty and intelligence similar to yours." Maca decided to strike while the iron was hot and continued to praise her roundly. "You must know that you are the daughter of Rowena Ravenclaw, and your qualities obviously represent the qualities required for admission to Ravenclaw College."
This half-virtual compliment obviously moved Helena, but Maca herself had already got goose bumps.
She smiled slightly and said arrogantly: "What you said makes sense, but my past experience makes me unable to trust you."
"Unless—" She seemed to be in a good mood, prolonging her tone and selling it off.
"Unless?" Maca echoed the dress with a curious expression.
"Unless you can pass through the bronze eagle gate of Ravenclaw tonight and enter the common room." She smiled. "My mother once said,'Extraordinary ingenuity is the greatest wealth of mankind. ', I will be waiting for you in the lounge."
After that, Helena got up with a smile and left floating.
"I think you are at a disadvantage and haven't eaten enough!" Maca looked at her leaving back and couldn't help but shook her head secretly.
The entrance to Ravenclaw’s common room is at the top of a spiral staircase to the west of the castle.There was a bare old wooden door with only an eagle-shaped bronze knocker.
At some point late that night, there were two knocks on the door out of thin air.As the voice sounded, a figure suddenly appeared at the door.
The eagle beak on the bronze knocker opened, and it spoke in a gentle and rhythmic voice.
"Where did the dead things go?" "Into nothingness."
Maca thought for a while and quickly answered, but the door didn't open at all.
After a while, the eagle beak spoke again.
"What was born in nothingness?"
"Isn't it just the same problem? Could it be that Helena did some tricks?" Maca thought secretly, and then went down to continue thinking for a while.
"Making something out of nothing, deducing everything."
"Everything in the world, what is the truth?"-After a short while, the third question followed.
Maca thought carefully, and gradually frowned.
These questions are obviously a series of advancing explorations, not like questions to ask students at all.For the first time, Maca felt that his brains were not enough.
After pondering for a long time, he said his answer-he was not sure if it was right.
"Material promotes appearance, spiritual deduction rules."
But that nasty eagle mouth obviously didn't want to let him go, and it raised the fourth question.
"Matter or spirit, which one will destroy first?"
Come on!Who can answer this kind of question?Guess in a reliable direction!
"Complementary cycle, coexist and die together!"
Maca estimated that he must be constipated now.
Suddenly, the eagle's eye on the bronze door knocker blinked, and flew up with an aura, landing on Maca's shoulder.
"It's rare to make a qualified judgement with that broken hat. Your kid is not a bad candidate."
It was the same voice just now, but the tone was no longer sluggish, and it sounded a lot more agile.
"Uh, may I ask... you are?" Maca was a little confused, what's the situation?
"Me? I am a key left by Rowena and the leader of candidates." It trimmed its feathers with a bronze eagle beak, and then said, "You passed the initial test and gained access. Royna’s qualifications for the Chamber of Secrets. Now, are you ready?"
"Ready?" Maca was taken aback, "No, I'm afraid not yet..."
The bronze little eagle spread its wings and flew over his head, and said with a quack, "I'm just asking."
After all, Macaton felt like the sky was spinning around, as if his body was turned and compressed. This should be the feeling of apparition.But he didn't feel the great sense of oppression and suffocation when he was taken by his followers in the past.
Just in a moment, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he realized that he had come to a brand new location.
"The space within Hogwarts has been reinforced by Royna. Without me, no one can enter here." The bronze little eagle quackly smiled.
Maca nodded, but his eyes kept moving up and down the huge, neatly arranged bookshelves.
This is a room that is not too spacious, at least it must be not as big as the Slytherin's secret room.Maca probably took a look at it. This is at most half the size of a library.
But here, except for the innermost desk and the back chair, the other spaces are almost all occupied by giant bookshelves that reach the ceiling.
Here, you can smell a rich and unique ink fragrance, which makes Maca, who has been vigilant since just now, relax.
