After returning to school, Harry didn't delay at all, and found Peeves immediately.

This guy was definitely by far the oldest person in the school, and also Harry's last hope.

If even he didn't know about ghosts and Rowena's spirit, no one in school would know about it.

However, to Harry's surprise, he really got the clue when he asked this question!

"Wanting to touch or restrict ghosts... I seem to have a memory of this~" Peeves seemed to be gradually recalling something after somersaults in the room, "Ms. Ravenclaw has this kind of ability." , she can control the actions of ghosts."

"What did you say?" Harry was taken aback, and then asked happily, "Rowena Ravenclaw...Are you really sure she can control ghosts?"

"Yeah, I'm sure!" Peeves vowed, "Master Granger, you know Binns, the nagging ghost professor. He was in a hurry to go to class, but he forgot to bring his own Body, and then accidentally turned into a ghost. In fact, when he just died, Binns wanted to float away, and did not want to continue teaching at Hogwarts. But the founders felt that the world is looking for There was no better teacher than him, so Ms. Ravenclaw thought of a way to chain Binns to Hogwarts again."

"Tie? What does that mean?" Harry asked puzzled.

"It means to be tied up~" Peeves said naturally, "I remember very clearly that after Binns became a ghost, he told the founders at the beginning, and he only had one more week of class. But a week later, Ms. Ravenclaw conjured a rope out of nowhere and tied Binns' ghost."

"Tie up... what happened after that?!" Harry asked Peeves urgently.

"After being tethered, Binns can only stay in class." Peeves replied, "Ghosts, if they repeat something for a long time, they will gradually feel that they should keep doing it. Therefore, even though the rope loop failed later, including the fact that Ms. Ravenclaw was no longer around, Binns was still the professor of the history of magic, and he didn't even allow others to compete with him for this position~"

"I see... By the way, is Ravenclaw an alchemist?"

After listening to Peeves roughly narrate the history of the school in its early days, Harry seemed to have thought of something.

The rope ring should be some kind of alchemy item, or possibly a magic tool, and Rowena Ravenclaw, who can make this item, is also a powerful alchemist who is proficient in ancient alchemy.

And among the techniques she has mastered, perhaps some of them can restrain ghosts!

"That's right," Peeves nodded approvingly, "Ms. Ravenclaw is a very clever wizard, and she is also an ingenious alchemist. The floor plan of this castle and the moving stairs are both She designed and arranged it herself. Oh yes, and the statue she made before she died..."

"What did you say?" Peeves said inadvertently, and gave Harry another important reminder, "The statue in the Ravenclaw common room was carved by Ravenclaw before he died?"

"That's right, everyone couldn't understand why she didn't lie down on the bed, but insisted on sculpting that thing." Peeves shrugged helplessly, "In the end, she couldn't completely carve the statue. , I had no strength left, and I was the one who moved the statue to the rest room."

"Not finished carving... Peeves, you come with me to the common room now!"

The mystery may be solved!

Ways to deal with ghosts, and the spirit of Rowena...

The key to solving these problems may be the statue!

Chapter 380 The Professor Is As Trustworthy As Before

A moment later, when Harry brought Peeves to the Common Room of Eagle Court, he found that Luna was there.

She was wearing a Ravenclaw crown on her head, and she was using her surprisingly large eyes to carefully look at the pure white Ravenclaw statue in front of her.

"Luna, did you also notice the abnormality of the statue?" Harry leaned forward and asked.

"Well," Luna replied softly, "After thinking about it for a few days, I still think it should be the statue. I took a closer look just now and found that the crown on the statue is slightly different from the real crown in details. "

"The crown? This is not right!" Suddenly, Peeves behind Harry uttered a strange cry, "There is something wrong with this statue. When I moved the statue of Ms. Ravenclaw in, it didn't have a crown on its head Yes!"

"Isn't there?" Harry hurriedly moved closer to the statue, and after looking at it carefully for a while, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "Could it be someone who came later to complete the crown on the statue without doing anything?"

"It seems to be the case." Luna agreed, "No wonder I just discovered that the part where the crown and the statue connect doesn't seem to fit well."

"In this case... it should be enough to remove the extra part." After thinking for a while, Harry turned his head and told Peeves, "Peves, please go and invite Ms. Gray, and just talk about her. Entrusting us already has a plan."

"Master Granger, don't worry, ahahaha~" After receiving Harry's instructions, Peeves flew away screaming.

"Luna, let's also inform the others, then prepare the tools, and start working after dinner!"

"Okay~" Luna nodded in agreement, and left with Harry.

...

After dinner, all members of the Werewolf Killing Detective Agency gathered in the common room of the Eagle Academy.

Even Colin, a student from the outer court, and Astoria, who was very concerned about the progress of the case, were all called by Will.

Admittedly, it might be a bit ostentatious for Harry to do so when the Rowena spirit was involved.

But in order to solve this mystery, the friends around him also worked hard for a long time, and now his side is infinitely close to the answer, Harry doesn't want to exclude others at this time.

However, the gathering of their large group of people will inevitably attract the attention of other students in the Eagle Academy, and when these students find that Harry is holding a sharp chisel in his hand, gesticulating at the statue of Ravenclaw At that time, the eaglets onlookers were all in a mess.

"Granger, what are you doing?" One of Harry's nominal roommates, Terry Boot, was the first to stop him, "Could it be that you want to destroy Lord Ravenclaw's statue?"

"I'm not trying to destroy it, but this statue is not quite right, so I need to restore it to its original appearance." Harry patiently explained, "You don't have to worry, my behavior was done by Ravenclaw. daughter - Lady Gray herself consented."

"I don't care whose consent you have obtained. In short, this statue is the public property of Ravenclaw, and you have no right to destroy it!" It is related to the college. Even Terry Boot is afraid of Harry like many people. At this moment, he still refused to give in.

Moreover, Harry's behavior obviously aroused other dissatisfaction in his heart: "And... haven't you made enough trouble recently? First, we made a big fuss in the divination class for no reason, which caused us to lose this year's defending Academy Cup; The Firebolt was given to that Ginny Weasley in Gryffindor to help their team beat us! These things...we haven't settled with you yet!"

"The matter of the divination class is my fault for the time being. But what does it have to do with me when the team loses?" Harry frowned and retorted, "It seems that there is no Firebolt, and the Eagle Academy can win Like the Lions Academy, where is the difference in strength between the two teams, how can winning or losing be decided by a broom?"

"Granger, isn't it too much for you to say that?" Eagle Academy's Quidditch captain Roger Davis happened to be there too. Hearing Harry's words, he immediately showed a dissatisfied expression, "We Anyway, you are working hard for the honor of your own academy, it’s fine if you don’t help us, how can you still help outsiders?”

"Captain Davis, Harry is not partial to outsiders!" Seeing this, Hermione hurriedly defended, "In the previous game, the tactical quality and will to win of the two teams were not on the same level at all. Ni Weasley didn't catch the Snitch, and it was only a matter of time before we lost!"

"And he didn't go to the divination class innocently." Luna also looked at Terry Boot seriously at this moment, "I dragged him there by force!"

"Stop making noise! ​​Everyone calm down!!"

Just when the two sides were arguing, Professor Flitwick finally trotted over and stopped the quarrel with a loud curse.

After parting the crowd, he first gestured slightly to Helena's ghost, and then asked seriously, "Harry, what happened?"

"I want to deal with this statue to see if I can find the spirit left behind by Ravenclaw." Harry told Professor Flitwick about the incident in detail, and then asked politely, "Professor, what do you think?" May I?"

"Ms. Gray, what do you think, is Harry's approach feasible?" After listening to Harry's narration, Professor Flitwick did not answer immediately, but first sought Helena's opinion.

As the dean of the Eagle Academy, he naturally knew Helena's identity, and at the same time, he also knew what happened today. Only Helena had the right to speak.

"This is with my approval." Helena nodded and replied, "In fact, I commissioned someone else to make the crown on the statue. After I came back, my mother had already been buried, and it was only in the common room A statue was left behind. Since I found that there was no crown on it, I thought my mother was still angry with me, so I specially made a statue without a crown to warn me..."

"So, I asked the dean at the time to find a craftsman to carefully design a crown, hoping to somewhat comfort my mother's regret... But now it seems that I should be smart." Speaking of this, Helena looked at the crown gratefully. To Harry, "It's also fortunate that Mr. Granger can figure out the problem, otherwise, I might never understand the true meaning of my mother."

"If that's the case, Harry, go ahead and do it!" After hearing Helena's story, Professor Flitwick no longer had any doubts, and firmly chose to support Harry, "You can do whatever you want, If something goes wrong, I will take responsibility!"

"Professor... thank you~" Harry bowed slightly to Professor Flitwick gratefully, and couldn't help but feel a little more self-blame in his heart.

This matter should really be told to the professor in advance, and he will definitely support himself.

In the recent period, because of serious ideological differences with Lao Deng, Harry has actually become estranged to a certain extent from professors other than Sijiao and Lupin. He subconsciously thinks that they may also be like Lao Deng, not only I can't help myself, and maybe I don't agree with my choice.

But now Harry understands that although the things he is facing are complicated, he should still make a good distinction

At least for things like today, which have not gone beyond the scope of the school, the professors will still support themselves as before.

When he was still a student and faced with student problems, this school would still be his backing.

Chapter 380 Five Professor Flitwick's psychological shadow area is very large

"Professor Flitwick, Ms Gray, I'm about to begin."

When he was ready, Harry moved a chair under his feet and stood at the same height as the Ravenclaw statue.

With the help of his own fine-grained eyesight, Harry carefully observed the connection texture between the statue's head and the crown, and finally found a circle of misplaced connection traces.

So, he put the tip of the chisel against the head of the statue, and with a little force, picked out the first piece of fine stone.

At this time, everyone in the common room was also watching Harry's movements without blinking, not even daring to breathe.

Every time the chisel is cut, there will be fine stone chips splashed out, and then there will be a gap in the stone crown, exposing the 'skin' hidden underneath...

To be honest, the process of removing the crown of the statue is very similar to some tissue removal 'surgeries' performed by Harry in his previous life, in which some unimportant parts are cut and removed, and only the key parts that need to be identified are kept.

But now, in this exquisite carving, Harry's chiseling method needs to be more precise.

After all, his original 'patients', even if they cut more or less, would not sit up and talk to him after the operation...

But if the chisel went down and Ms. Ravenclaw was accidentally cut into the Mediterranean Sea, the spirit behind her would probably run away on the spot.

So Harry had to be more careful.

And all the people who had been stranded in the lounge held their breaths and waited from after dinner until before going to bed.

Gradually, the shape of the crown has become incomplete, and the hair on Ms. Ravenclaw's head has finally been revealed.

"It's done!"

Carefully picking the top of the statue for the last time, Harry helped the statue wipe off the remaining dust on the top of the head, and reached out to ask Luna for the real crown.

"Harry...do we need to avoid it for a while?" At this moment, Professor Flitwick, who was watching the whole process, suddenly asked.

Now there are not only Harry and the others in the lounge, but almost all the students of the Eagle Academy are attracted. After all, when it comes to Ravenclaw, the founder of the Eagle Academy, Professor Flitwick is worried that there will be too many people talking...

"It's okay, Professor." Who knows, Harry shook his head lightly, "I've been waiting for so long, there's no reason to drive everyone away at the last minute. What's more, if Ravenclaw really has a soul Stay here and see everyone here, although it may not be beneficial, it will not be harmful after all."

"That's... that's fine, let the students stay here and take a look, and I hope that Lord Ravenclaw really has a spirit behind him." Professor Flitwick was a little dazed, but he immediately agreed with Harry's decision .

And after he agreed, there was a burst of low but extremely eager cheers at the same time.

That's the soul behind the founder of the academy, who wouldn't want to see it?

"Harry..." Looking at the students who were carefully putting the crown on the statue, Professor Flitwick felt extremely relieved.

In his opinion, Harry had really never been a selfish kid.

It's just that in many cases, his vision of looking at problems is more mature, and his behavior style is completely different from ordinary students, so he is often misunderstood.

Just like what happened today, being able to see the spirit of the founder of the academy with his own eyes will definitely not be useless to the students of the Eagle Academy, but will be of great benefit!

But Harry didn't hide it, but generously shared the opportunity.

hum~

The crown was gently buckled on top of the statue's head, and the fit was perfect. The whole statue suddenly emitted a faint halo, matching the night sky on the top of the common room, and sprinkled a starlight in the whole room.

At this time, everyone in the room knew that Harry must have succeeded!

Looking at Harry who retreated in front of the statue, Professor Flitwick was even more excited at the moment, truly proud of having such a student.

Gradually, the starlight began to dim, but the lifelike statue suddenly became more alive at this moment, and slowly opened those pure white eyes like jade.

"Helena, my daughter... have you returned to me with the crown at last?"

The statue suddenly made a sound. It was an ethereal and pleasant female voice that concealed a hint of majesty. It was Rowena Ravenclaw's own voice!

"Mother! Yes... I am back!"

Hearing her mother's voice again, Helena's ghost kept gathering and dispersing excitedly. Large silver-gray teardrops flowed down from the corners of her eyes, but they disappeared in the air before they fell to the ground. without a trace.

"Helena, my daughter... you, why did you become a ghost?" I wanted to greet my daughter's embrace, but what caught my eyes was a transparent ghost, and Rowena's spirit couldn't help screaming suddenly.

"What happened? Who killed my daughter?!"

"It was Baro you sent, mother..." Helena sighed sadly, "But everything has passed, Baro has also paid the price for his sins, and he has also become a ghost."

"Baro...turned into a ghost?" Rowena's spirit cursed sharply, "Hmph, does he think that he can end everything by becoming a ghost? I have a way to kill his soul, even if it is Even Salazar can't keep him!!"

really…

After hearing this, Harry's mind moved slightly.

Although Rowena's spirit said angry words, it also revealed in the words that she really has a way to deal with, even kill a ghost!

"Oh, my poor Helena, you turned into a ghost... no! How long has it been now, and what has Hogwarts become?"

The spirit of Rowena, who was about to reminisce with her daughter, suddenly reacted. She looked around with scrutiny, especially when she found the group of students with different faces in the corner, who were as intelligent as her, very An abnormality was soon noticed.

At this time, the time since her death may have passed for a long time...

"Lord Ravenclaw, nearly a thousand years have passed since your death..." Professor Flitwick stepped forward cautiously and replied, "But don't worry, Hogwarts is developing very well today..."

"Are you the current Headmaster of Ravenclaw?" Professor Flitwick wanted to introduce the current situation of the school, but the spirit of Rowena suddenly interrupted him.

"Uh...yes, I'm Filius Flitwick..."

"It's over, it seems that the future of Hogwarts is worrisome~" Who knows, before Professor Flitwick finished his self-introduction, the spirit of Rowena suddenly rolled his eyes, and even his tone became a little half-dead .

"Half the blood of the goblin... This is definitely the wizard with the most magical talent, but as a dean, you only have this level of magic power? You know, in our era, if the seniors were just you With such a level, you can’t even graduate smoothly!”

If the statue could move, Rowena's spirit must be shaking its head by now.

"It's over, it's over, Hogwarts... It seems that this school is about to fall completely~"
