The two of them were very busy.

Dumbledore's expression remained unchanged and he took a sip of lemon juice.

It seemed that he felt it was too sour, so he took out a few more pieces of toffee and put them in his mouth.

"Harry is going to investigate the heir of the Chamber of Secrets."

I thought Argus would continue to ask, but after waiting for a long time, he didn't hear him answer.

I had to continue: "This matter has been delayed for too long. If it is not resolved as soon as possible, the little wizards in Hogwarts may even have problems attending classes."

"That's right." Argus nodded in agreement.

Dumbledore's eyes showed joy, and when he was about to ask Argus to help Harry investigate, he heard Argus smile and speak.

"I wish you all the best,"

This sentence blocked Dumbledore's next words.

As the instigator, Argus knows Dumbledore's current situation best.

Internal and external troubles!

The school board and the young wizards who attend Hogwarts question him.

British wizards and the Ministry of Magic condemn him.

Rita Skeeter adds fuel to the fire in the Daily Prophet from time to time, which increases the pressure he faces.

Originally, Dumbledore could use the portraits in the school to monitor Ginny, but Ginny threw the diary to the bathroom on the first floor.

Since then, the diary has disappeared from Dumbledore's sight.

The situation began to develop in an uncontrollable direction.

The petrification incident did not happen again, but Dumbledore's situation became more and more difficult.

Dumbledore also knew this very well, and he has been constantly checking for traces of the diary recently.

But the diary seemed to have disappeared out of thin air, and he had been looking for it for so long, but he couldn't find any trace.

This made him anxious and regretful.

The diary is not an ordinary black magic item, it is Voldemort's Horcrux.

It must be destroyed!

If I hadn't wanted to use it to train Harry, I wouldn't have kept it for so long!

I didn't expect it to backfire!

Harry didn't train, but lost the diary!

Otherwise, he wouldn't have wanted to ask for help from Argus.

Not only to deal with the basilisk, but also to track the diary!

"Harry needs your guidance."

Dumbledore had no choice but to make things clear: "We had a deal last year. I blocked the secret attack on the store for you, and you gave Harry guidance when necessary."

"I don't know the information about the heir of Slytherin, and I'm not interested in it."

Argus didn't refuse.

He still valued last year's deal, after all, the Saints were about to replace Diagon Alley.

There would be more secret attacks at that time!

If it weren't for Dumbledore, I'm afraid it would cost a lot of lives.

But he didn't want to reveal his information and pretended to know nothing.

"The bathroom on the first floor."

"Moaning Myrtle is the victim that Hagrid was framed for."

Dumbledore was silent for a moment, and gave information: "One more thing."

"Slytherin's Chamber of Secrets can only be opened by Parseltongue."

"I see." Argus showed appropriate surprise.

"If I'm not mistaken, the monster in the Chamber of Secrets should be the Basilisk."

"Harry alone... may not be able to deal with it."

"Understood, I will protect him." Argus sneered and nodded.

Good guy, the abacus is really loud!

I guided Harry and took Harry to the Basilisk.

Then I had to protect his safety and help him solve the Basilisk.

So in the end, I did everything, and the reputation was given to Harry?

Just wishful thinking!

No, reputation!

He remembered that in the original book, it seemed that Lockhart had some scenes in this battle.

Lockhart...

Argus narrowed his eyes and looked at Dumbledore.

"Anything else, Headmaster Dumbledore?"

"If you don't have anything, let Fawkes take me back to rest."

"It's so late, if I run into a professor or an Auror, I won't be able to explain it clearly."

"That's right, I'll let Fawkes take you back!"

After getting the answer he wanted, Dumbledore's mood obviously improved a lot.

He immediately ordered Fawkes to take Argus back to the dormitory.

"By the way, Headmaster Dumbledore!"

Argus seemed to have just remembered something: "Fawkes brought me back too hastily, the fire in the Forbidden Forest seems to be still burning."

"If you have time, remember to deal with it."

Fuck! Why didn't you say it earlier!

Dumbledore really couldn't sit still this time!

That's not a blazing fire, it's the God of Fire leading the way!

The Forbidden Forest is full of trees, and a little spark can start a big fire!

You, the God of Fire, are leading the way, and you don't

The entire Forbidden Forest is on fire!

Without even saying a word to Argus, he immediately disappeared into the principal's office with Fawkes.

...

The next day, classes began.

All professors, without exception, looked tired.

Professor Flitwick even had a few black marks on his face.

Even Lockhart, who usually pays the most attention to appearance and likes to show off his personality, didn't want to make trouble today.

Fortunately, Dumbledore still had a conscience and didn't involve Argus.

He only said that he found a fire in the Forbidden Forest in his office.

"Have you heard about it, Argus?" Draco approached Argus mysteriously.

"What did you hear?" Argus replied weakly.

"The Heir of Slytherin attacked again last night! He set fire and almost burned the entire Forbidden Forest!"

"Fortunately, Headmaster Dumbledore urgently summoned the professors to put out the fire, and the fire was brought under control, burning only a small area."

"That's not bad!"

Aggs breathed a sigh of relief.

Although the Saints now have sufficient supply, even if the supply of the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts is gone, it will not affect the overall situation.

But it is better to earn more gold galleons.

If the Forbidden Forest is really burned to ashes, his loss will not be small.

However, Dumbledore is smart and pushed this matter to the Heir of Slytherin.

It not only reduces suspicion, but also implies that Aurors are useless.

Even if Aurors are stationed on campus, they cannot stop the attack of the Heir of Slytherin.

At most, it reduces some casualties.

"I don't know when I can find the Heir of Slytherin. When will these days of fear end!"

Draco's sigh resonated with many people.

"My father said that if Hogwarts can't solve the problem of Slytherin's heir this year, he plans to transfer me to Durmstrang next year."

"Alas, my family also said so. You can't throw your life away in school just to go to school."

"In fact, Durmstrang is not bad. The dark magic class there is much better than Hogwarts!"

"Dark magic?"

When this topic was mentioned, many young wizards became interested and started to discuss it.

"Argus, has your family mentioned any transfer?"

Draco asked Argus expectantly.

Argus glanced at the Gryffindor table not far away.

Harry and Ron were discussing something in a low voice.

"There is no need to transfer. The heir of Slytherin will probably be found out soon."

"It will be found out soon!"

Draco exclaimed.

It instantly attracted the attention of Harry and Ron.

Argus noticed the look in their eyes.

The corners of his mouth curled up quietly.
