Stay away from it!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, a familiar voice drifted through the Room of Requirement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was Mr. Owl—his gold-rimmed glasses had fallen to the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The statue guardian, Wizard Sean, and Jia Jia Siting all turned their heads at once, staring at it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are you staring at?

What did you mean by ‘and also a’?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia Jia Siting did not argue; instead, he asked cautiously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s a secret—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr. Owl was unmoved by flattery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Well then, you must not know how the Ravenclaw diadem was made into a Horcrux either…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia Jia Siting looked crestfallen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Little wizard with his head stuck in the dirt, do you think I don’t know?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go find Grey—go find Helena—clever little wizard,”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mr. Owl grew agitated, then suddenly fell silent, his voice dropping low,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Tragedy can teach wizards many things.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia Jia Siting’s eyes lit up; before he could thank him, Mr. Owl vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Bai Yi suddenly flew away from the window.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Grey… Grey… it’s Lady Grey—Wizard Sean, if we can find out how Voldemort made the Horcrux, maybe we can break its curse…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There’s still a chance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia Jia Siting whispered his thanks to Mr. Owl, then said excitedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wizard Sean glanced at the Ravenclaw diadem, raised his wand, and the statue guardian instantly merged into the wooden cabinet, transforming into a solid stone box that sealed the Ravenclaw diadem inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only after this did he feel slightly at ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If we can’t resolve it today, then we…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wizard Sean said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Destroy the diadem immediately!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia Jia Siting said in a low voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they stepped out of the Room of Requirement, Wizard Sean and Jia Jia Siting bumped into Hermione, who looked anxious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, on their way to the Ravenclaw Tower, Jia Jia Siting quietly and slowly explained the concept of Horcruxes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So… he’ll come back, then…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione turned pale with fear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There’s no need to worry, Hermione.

Then students surged from both ends into the hallway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They stood in the shadow of the corridor, letting the dusk stretch their shadows long behind them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re right.

Courage isn’t holding a gun in your hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Courage is knowing you will lose before you even begin—and still doing it, and holding on no matter what.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His gaze burned—eyes utterly different from the green eyes beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within his pupils, storms and tides raged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside the castle, snow fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thick, heavy snowflakes drifted like goose feathers onto the castle’s spires.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the castle, by torchlight, three young wizards walked swiftly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along the way, Wizard Sean and his companions saw many ghosts:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Gryffindor ghost, the brooding ghost, Nearly Headless Nick stared gloomily out the window, murmuring softly: “…not meeting their standards… half an inch short, if only that…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Hufflepuff ghost, a plump little monk-like spirit, comforted Nick: “Come now, they should give you another chance—”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, in the eager gaze of Wizard Sean and his two companions, the Ravenclaw ghost appeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was a tall, slender young woman with flowing hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her form was translucent silver-white, beautiful yet marked by pride and deep sorrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Found her—Lady Grey!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hermione whispered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Grey… that’s probably not her name.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia Jia Siting murmured to himself, then looked at Wizard Sean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wizard Sean gave a slight nod.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until now, most Hogwarts students had assumed this was the ghost lady’s surname.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in truth, it was likely just a homophone—she was actually called The Grey Lady.\u003C\u002Fp>",1070,"2026-06-19T10:00:41.888Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","82c2612f56973cb20428659ec564f847e06b1c7135169691c7d889a83bda3620","hogwarts-learning-panel-chapter-378","hogwarts-learning-panel-chapter-376",526,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fhogwarts-learning-panel-cover.jpg"]
