Chapter 119 The Location of the Diary
Since Mrs. Pince was attacked, this bathroom has been temporarily out of service and few people come. Why is there a sound now?
Ralf raised his wand and carefully walked into the bathroom. He saw a large pool of water seeping out from the crack in the cubicle door.
He gently pushed open the wooden door of the compartment and found Myrtle standing upside down, with her head in the water of the toilet, her legs pointing upward, her tongue stretched out, her mouth crooked and her eyes squinted...
"What are you doing in this posture, Myrtle?" Luofu leaned against the wooden door and couldn't help laughing: "Playing a water ghost, or are you practicing the 'Land Wandering Device'?"
Myrtle quickly turned around, floating in the air and said:
"Rolf, why did you come in? This is the women's washroom...ah~ I found that you especially like to go into the women's washroom? Is this your unique hobby?"
"Although it's a bit perverted, but..." Myrtle said shyly, "I don't mind."
"First of all, this bathroom is out of service. No female students will come here."
"Secondly," Luo Fu said slowly, "I heard the movement of the pool table, so I came in to see if anyone was attacked... It's excusable."
"I didn't say you were deliberately spying on me." Myrtle blinked at him through the thick lenses: "Don't be so nervous."
"Why are you here?" Luo Fe stood at the door of the cubicle, looked around, and frowned slightly, "Don't you always stay in another abandoned bathroom?"
"This is my new territory." Myrtle floated in the toilet tank, holding her chin and saying:
"It turns out that... after the underground was burned, the smell always seeped up through the pipes. It smelled terrible!"
After Voldemort used the Fire Curse to burn the Chamber of Secrets to the ground last year, he could indeed smell a strange smell for a long time, but...
Rolf joked: "You, a ghost, can smell the burning smell?"
After hearing this, tears suddenly appeared in Myrtle's eyes: "Rolf, you are hurting me with your words! I know I am dead...I can't breathe...You don't have to remind me like this...Ugh..."
"Myrtle, you are too sensitive." Luo Fu said helplessly.
"Sensitive? That's because no one really cares about me!" Myrtle burst into tears, grabbed her hair with both hands, and choked out:
"When I died... it took a long time for everyone to notice... that no one cared about me at all!"
"Stop crying." Rolf glanced at the door and said, "Mrs. Pomfrey is not a good-tempered woman if she is disturbed."
"It's okay if you don't let me cry. You should come visit me more often. I haven't seen you for a long time since Halloween." Myrtle muttered, groping in her robe for a handkerchief.
"Don't you already have boyfriends? Harry and Ron." Rolf looked at the bathroom and replied casually: "Or are they two, and they are not enough to make you happy?"
"Ron is so ugly. When I see the dense freckles on his face, I feel uncomfortable all over. Harry is moodless and a little heartless!" Myrtle wiped her eyes melancholy and said:
"I have decided to get rid of them. Among the male students in Hogwarts, you are the most handsome, and your appearance is worthy of mine! Are you and Ms. Gray also separated?
I haven't seen you walking together for a long time. "
Luofu didn't want to discuss Helena, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "What was the sound just now? I heard it at the door."
"A big fat rat." Myrtle said in a sad voice:
"It looked very scary. He ran around in the cubicle and finally got out of the toilet...I am most afraid of rats."
"It's okay, I can't bite you anyway."
"You're hurting me again!" Myrtle sobbed sadly, rose into the air, turned around, and fell headfirst into the toilet, splashing water to the ground, and then disappeared.

Judging from the dull sobbing, she must have been hiding in the sewer.
Luofu didn't care either. He turned around and left. After taking only a few steps, he suddenly thought of something and turned around stiffly, staring at an item in the compartment.
The young man suddenly laughed.
He discovered something that he and even Dumbledore had inadvertently overlooked.
Flush toilet!
On the night Mrs. Pince was attacked, Rolf sealed off the surrounding walls with water jets, seemingly forming an absolute "secret room", but in fact it was not that secret... Wasn't the toilet connected to the sewer?
It's just that the hole was so small that Rove simply ignored it at the time. But no matter how small it is, it is still a hole, and it is still big enough for a mouse to get in and out!
No wonder the guy rushed into the cubicle immediately because he wanted to get into the toilet.
There was only one last thing left to determine, and that was how the diary got from Percy... to that guy.
Luofu turned around and walked out of the bathroom, striding towards the distance. He walked through the corridors and quickly reached the fourth floor before slowing down.
Because of the fight with Malfoy, Ginny was punished by cleaning the corridor manually. Now she was standing on a ladder, holding a rag, and carefully wiping the glass.
Luna was standing on the ground, holding the ladder for Ginny. She was still holding a bucket in her left hand, and a clean rag on her right arm. There were strings of pebbles around her waist, making a soft sound.
There was a copy of "The Quibbler" on the windowsill, but the breeze blew and the pages turned randomly, making it impossible to see the content.
Rolf walked towards the two of them, stretched out his left hand to help Ginny hold the ladder, and helped Luna read "The Quibbler" with his right hand.
"Rolf, why are you here?" Ginny wiped the glass until it creaked.
"I came to you to ask something."
Ginny quickly slid down the ladder. The little girl raised her head, looked around deliberately, and then lowered her voice and said, "It costs money to ask for information."
Rolf, who was angry and amused, gave her a heavy chestnut and said softly:
"Ginny, George and Fred told me that Percy locked himself in his room during the summer vacation..."
"I know what Percy is doing!" Ginny quickly raised her hand holding the rag and said with a smile:
"He is in love with Penelope Clearwater, the head of Ravenclaw, and he has been hiding in the summer vacation to write letters to her..."
Rolf was stunned. He didn't want to ask about this, but it also explained Percy's abnormality.
"So, he left the hall on Halloween and Valentine's Day to go on dates?"
"Yes." Ginny nodded: "He also asked me not to tell anyone."
Rolf hummed, and after a moment of silence, he said: "I have something else to ask you."
"What is it?"
"George and Fred told me that they blew up Percy's room, leaving him without a place to sleep for several days." Rolf whispered:
"Where did Percy sleep at that time?"
"In the same room with Ron and Harry." Ginny said as a matter of course:
"There are only five rooms in our house. I have one, my parents have one, George and Fred have one... Percy had no place to live, so he had to squeeze in the small attic with Ron at that time."
Sure enough... The diary was found by that guy at that time?
"Why are you asking this?" Ginny asked curiously.
"Nothing, thank you." Rolf smiled with satisfaction. He had sorted out all the doubts.
The boy took out a Galleon from his pocket, but thought that he was also a poor guy and had to support a little assistant Shirley, so he couldn't spend money lavishly.
He exchanged the Galleons for two... Knuts.
Rolf handed the Knuts to Ginny and Luna respectively, and said with a generous expression:
"You two are paid for your children... Use them to buy candy, you're welcome."
