Chapter 5 Snape

"Of course, I'm not doubting you." Rosie's pretty face outlined a sweet smile, and said in a gentle tone, "I don't think Principal Dumbledore will let a dangerous person stay in Hogwarts."

Hearing what she said, the tense look on Hagrid's face eased a little, and then he asked with some doubts: "Then what do you mean by mentioning this?"

Rossi explained: "Although I believe in you and Principal Dumbledore. But if I can't complete the investigation in time and solve this chamber of secrets incident. Even if it's just out of caution, the people from the Department of Magical Law Enforcement will definitely put you Take away those who assist in the investigation."

Hagrid opened his mouth, as if he wanted to explain something, but in the end he sighed helplessly: "Oh, I don't know anything about the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets, the opening of the Chamber of Secrets 50 years ago has nothing to do with me .Even if the Aurors take me into Azkaban, they won't be able to solve this Chamber of Secrets incident."

"It can't solve this chamber of secrets incident..." Rossi repeated his words silently in his heart, and then asked again: "If you are caught in Azkaban, the person who opened the chamber of secrets will stop committing crimes?" ? Then you have committed the scapegoat?"

Rosie's words made Hagrid nervous again, and he said with dancing, "No, no, Dumbledore won't let me be wronged, I never opened the Chamber of Secrets!"

"Relax, it's just a hypothesis. As a detective, I don't let innocent people be wronged."

While comforting the other party, Rossi looked at the approaching Hogwarts castle, and continued with confidence in his expression: "Don't worry, I will solve this chamber of secrets incident as soon as possible!"

While she was speaking, the carriage pulled by the invisible creature passed through the main entrance of Hogwarts Castle and stopped in the open space in the courtyard.

"Solve this secret room incident?" A harsh and indifferent voice came from the side, "Just rely on you, a third-level trainee detective who has not yet become a regular?"

Am I... despised?
Rossi looked around, and saw a thin man in his thirties, wearing a black robe and a black cloak, standing quietly in the shadow of the wall like a bat.The aquiline nose, which seemed a bit too large in proportion, made Rossi fix his eyes on his nose while noticing his facial features.

"Uh, this is the Potions professor at Hogwarts, Professor Snape." Hagrid introduced with some embarrassment, "This is an agent of the Ministry of Magic, Ms. Rossi."

"I don't need you to remind me, Hagrid, I know what she does." Snape approached with a cold face, looked at Rosie from head to toe with examining eyes, and then continued, "I thought the Ministry of Magic would How much do you take this incident seriously, only to send an intern?"

"I think whether we can find out the truth and the whole story of this incident has little to do with the identity of a trainee agent or a full-time agent." Seeing that Snape questioned him because of his status, Rossi raised his face, Express your point of view without being overbearing.

"The real case is not like the entrance test for your detectives. There are ready-made clues like AVG scripts for you to reason and guess puzzles. Hmph, with your current level, I don't think you can find any useful information. "After that, Snape turned his head to look at Hagrid, and was about to leave.

Seeing that Snape was about to leave after satirizing him, Rossi immediately cleared his throat, drew the other party's attention with a rather loud voice, and then retorted: "Is it possible to find out the truth with a high level? Does Professor Snape have any?" Haven't investigated the ins and outs of this incident? Or, Professor Snape himself is related to this incident?"

Hearing this, Snape paused, gave Rosie a cold sideways glance, and said disdainfully, "I hope your ability can be compared with your skill in words."

After that, Snape walked into the interior of Hogwarts Castle angrily.

Seeing his leaving back, Rossi chuckled and looked at Hagrid next to him, and complained with a smile: "It seems that this professor has a bad temper."

"Professor Snape is the youngest head of Slytherin house ever, and it is understandable to have a little Slytherin's arrogance in his temper." Hagrid rubbed his nose and explained awkwardly, "Although he used to ...well, but Dumbledore believed him, so he must be a respectable professor, too."

"So the only reason you respect Snape is because Dumbledore believes in him?" Hearing what he said, Rossi couldn't help complaining again, "You are really a qualified Dumbledore fan. "

Suddenly, she thought again: "The AI ​​of the NPC in this dungeon is really ridiculously high, even the instilled cognition is outrageous, and even the game term like AVG can be spoken."

While thinking, Rosie followed Hagrid into the castle and came to a corridor on the second floor of Hogwarts.

Although it was still daytime at this time, but in the dark corridor, it was necessary to rely on the flickering torches on both sides of the corridor to see the surrounding environment clearly.

"Here is...?" Rosie, who was vaguely familiar with this scene, was about to ask Hagrid for confirmation, but Hagrid took out a badge from his coat pocket and handed it to Rosie: "This is Hogwarts. You can walk freely in Hogwarts with it, and you will use it to investigate cases in Hogwarts."

"A pass? It is indeed a necessity."

Rosie nodded approvingly, and took the badge. The front of the badge was similar to the Hogwarts school badge, with the upper and lower lines depicting animals representing the four Hogwarts colleges—lion, snake, badger, and eagle. , the back is engraved with the four magic characters of "Sleeping Dragon, Do Not Disturb" with the hollow technique.

"Mission item: Hogwarts' special badge, holding it can enter the public area of ​​Hogwarts, and it is only valid for this copy."

"Thank you!" After checking the badge's prompt message, Rosie, who put the badge into the inventory, thanked Hagrid.

"You're welcome!" Hagrid waved his hand, and then continued, "Now Dumbledore is doing other things, and it's not convenient to see you for the time being. And now that the students are in class, it's best not to make a big fuss when you investigate the case. This The incident is somewhat dangerous, and having too many students informed or even involved may put children in danger."

"Understood!" His words made Rossi, who suddenly thought of some old things, said a little funny, "If some courageous Gryffindors know that someone is investigating the Chamber of Secrets, then this case is likely to become even more serious. complex."

"Yes, Gryffindor students are always more courageous!" Hagrid said proudly.

Hearing this, Rossi couldn't help but rolled her eyes secretly, and complained in her heart: "No matter how high the AI ​​is, it's really just an NPC, and you can't even hear the irony."

When she was working as a detective before, she had been exposed to several events that made the case even more confusing due to the involvement of Gryffindor NPCs, so she had a bad image of Gryffindor.

"This is where Mrs. Norris was petrified."

At this time, Hagrid pointed to a torch barrel and said, "Mrs. Norris was hung there at that time."

Immediately afterwards, he pointed to another place and continued to explain: "It was written in blood before: 'The secret chamber has been opened, the enemy of the heir, be careful!'."

After hearing this, Rossi immediately understood where her sense of familiarity with this place came from: "Sure enough, this is where the story of the Chamber of Secrets officially begins."

While thinking, she suddenly remembered something and asked, "If I remember correctly, Mrs. Norris, is it a cat?"
