Chapter 153： The truth from Dobby

That night, Harry was lying on the bed tossing and turning, listening to the snoring of his roommates in his ears, unable to fall asleep.

He was still thinking about what happened during the day—whether it was a big victory over Slytherin or seeing his rival Draco Malfoy being scolded by his father, it made him happy.

But he suddenly felt lonely, and he also wanted to taste the taste of being scolded by his parents.

Everyone was looking forward to the summer vacation. Only he was resisting. He even planned to stay with Hagrid, or go to the Burrow.

"Harry ~ Potter!"

An impenetrable call sounded. Harry was no stranger to this voice. He put on his glasses in a hurry and looked at the thin figure standing at the door——

He has huge brown eyes and a nose that is the shape and size of a big tomato.

"Many, Dobby, it's really you!"

Harry looked around quickly. They were sleeping soundly. Even Ron’s pet, the gray fat rat, was lying comfortably on his owner’s pillow.

He gently lifted the quilt, climbed off the bed, looked at the wand at the head of the bed, hesitated a little, and copied it in his hand.

"Fluorescence flickers."

Harry took Dobby to the common room, where there was only a faint light, and he picked a padded chair and sat down.

"Sit down, Dobby, you have something to tell me, don't you?"

When he got close, he realized that Dobby had changed a dress—no, no, it was the old pillowcase, but I don’t know where the elf got it. He added two sleeves to himself and it looked like Something about the trouser legs.

"You change your new clothes--no! Dobby, you, you..." He pointed to Dobby, speechless. He learned from Ron that house elves cannot wear normal clothes. There is only one possibility——

"Yes, Mr. Potter, Dobby, Dobby is free!" The elf's big eyes were filled with tears and screamed joyfully.

"Why—oh, I mean, congratulations, Dobby." Harry said, "but you still follow Lucius Malfoy during the day?"

"Dobby didn't know. Maybe it was the failure of the young master during the day that made him feel bad. When he returned at night, he scolded Dobby... Dobby was used to it, but he didn't expect that he would actually drive Dobby away. !"

Harry opened his mouth to say something, but the elf had already spoken freely: "Never thought...this is something Dobby dreams of..."

He let go of his fingers, and a gorgeous button lay quietly on his slender palm.

"Master, no, Lucius Malfoy gave Dobby a button, which he tore off...He angrily told Dobby to leave Malfoy Manor forever."

"So you are free, and you don't belong to anyone." Harry said.

"Yes, Dobby is a free spirit now." Dobby blinked his eyes. "Thank you for all this, the great Harry Potter, who defeated Draco Malfoy on the court!"

Harry felt that the world was impermanent, and his victory over Slytherin could have such a huge impact on Dobby.

"I didn't expect, of course, I feel honored." Harry said modestly. "By the way, Dobby, you shouldn't be bound by your identity now? I have a lot of questions for you."

"You can speak, Dobby does his best."

"That's it, is the secret room incident a conspiracy by Lucius Malfoy?" Harry asked the doubts that the three had discussed during the day.

"Yes, he brought the relic of the Dark Lord: a cursed diary to Hogwarts, with the help of Ginny Weasley."

"Wait! Ginny?"

"...Yes, at Lihen Bookstore."

An aura awakened Harry, and he said in a positive tone: "He had a fight with Mr. Weasley at the time. I remember that he finally picked up Ginny's textbook and laughed at her fiercely! Lucius must be secretly secretive. Tuck the diary in it, right?"

"Exactly, Mr. Potter." Dobby said, bending over.

"Then you prevented me from returning to school and attacking me on the court because of the relic. It opened the secret room?"

Dobby lowered his head and said in a low voice, "You are right. Dobby overheard Malfoy's words, Mr. Potter, you don't know how dark the days of house elves were during the reign of the Dark Lord. , It's actually much better now than before..."

It was difficult for Harry to show what life the house elves had at that time.

He comfortedly said, "You are still suffering from all your hardships now, aren't you?" But Harry suddenly thought of something and almost jumped up, he trembled, "Now, now, is the diary still in Ginny's hands? ?"

"Is she in danger?"

Dobby whispered: "No, the diary was in the hands of three people. At first it was Miss Weasley. Later, I didn’t know how to get to Draco Malfoy. At the end, it fell on the same great Filipino. Mr. Lex Haip’s hands."

"Professor Haipu?" Harry was dumbfounded.

"Yes, but Mr. Haipu realized the evil of the diary, he destroyed it, completely destroyed it! Right in front of Dobby..."

Harry felt that his head wasn't enough, and he was overwhelmed by the breaking news tonight, with a dazed expression on his face.

...

Early the next morning.

"You mean, the source of all this is Lucius Malfoy? He hid the diary in Ginny's textbook, and Ginny was controlled to open the secret room, releasing the basilisk and causing Mrs. Loris and Crevy's petrification! Afterwards the diary was in the hands of his son again, Merlin's beard, he really made it up! But the most outrageous thing is that the diary is now destroyed by Professor Haipu!"

Ron had never said so much in one breath, he poured a few mouthfuls of pumpkin juice.

"That's it." Harry nodded, his heart moved, and he told of his experience when he accidentally ran into Draco when he was saving Justin. "He looked muddled, but I didn't have time to think about what happened next. There are too many, I completely put this doubt behind my head."

"Oh my God, Professor Haipu didn't miss a word!" Ron couldn't say whether it was complaining or admiring.

Hermione fell into the memory. She added: "During the time I was in the hospital, do you still remember? Professor Haipu warned me that the danger is over. Let us not pursue the investigation anymore. I think he got the diary at that time. , Maybe, it has been ruined."

"Moreover," the little witch shook her fingers: "Professor Haipu must have told Dumbledore, and Dumbledore may have told your parents, Ron." At this point, she said with some frustration, "Although, He didn't tell us."

"Cool~ It turns out that the adults did so many things behind us." Ron said.

"So Dobby has any plans now?" Hermione asked.

"I don't know yet, I guess, he might visit a friend?" Harry said uncertainly.

Ron finished his breakfast in a hurry and left in a hurry.

"Where are you going, Ron?"

"I'm going to ask Ginny, it suddenly occurred to me, what impact the notebook will have on her in case of--"

"You are right!"

...

In Ginny's stuttering description they learned more.

"You left the diary in the abandoned bathroom?" Harry stared into Ginny's eyes and asked in amazement.

Ginny lowered her head shyly, with a bright blush on her face: "Yes, Fred and George told a lot of scary examples at the time, and I realized something was wrong."

"It's all right! Malfoy followed us, but we evacuated the potion urgently. He threw himself out, but found the diary." Harry said.

He couldn't help but was shocked in a cold sweat. The fuzzy shadow he saw at the time was probably the diary that Ginny had lost, but because he found Malfoy, he didn't have time to take a closer look.

In case the notebook was picked up by him, controlled him, and let him be caught on the way to open the secret room, it would really be impossible to argue. You know, at that time he was still misunderstood by everyone because of the snake-like voice.

"Ginny, do you have any discomfort?" Ron asked.

Ginny shook her head, "I followed Luna's suggestion and went to the school hospital to have a look. Except for some weakness, there were no other problems. Madam Pomfrey drank two bottles of medicine for me, and I recovered quickly."

"By the way, she also said that a boy had similar symptoms..."

The three looked at each other and said in unison, "Draco Malfoy!"

They spent half a week and barely pieced together the complete truth--

From Lucius’s revenge to Ginny being controlled to open the secret room and cause two attacks. After discovering the abnormality, she threw away the diary, but was picked up by Draco Malfoy. Draco was hit by Harry when he opened the secret room. , Rescued Justin, followed by their feat of going deep into the secret room to kill the basilisk. After that, the diary fell into the hands of Professor Haipu and was completely destroyed.

"It's really strange, Professor Haipu's presence in the whole thing is too strong."

"This shows that he really found out all the truth."
