The Summary and The figure of speech of HARRY POTTER AND THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS

SUMMARY

      Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets begins when Harry is spending a miserable summer with his only remaining family, the Dursleys. Dobby warns Harry not to return to Hogwarts, the magical school for wizards that Harry attended the previous year. Harry politely disregards the warning and Dobby wreaks havoc in the kitchen. The Dursleys angrily imprison Harry in his room. Luckily, Harry's friend Ron Weasley steals Harry away in a flying car to the Weasley house. While shopping for school supplies with the Weasleys, Harry encounters Lockhart, one of his teacher and Lucius Malfoy, the evil father of one of Harry's enemies, Draco Malfoy. As Harry prepares to return to Hogwarts, he finds that he and Ron are unable to enter the magically invisible train platform, so they fly the Weasley car to Hogwarts. They land messily, and both boys are given detentions. Lockhart, who believes Harry flew the car to get attention, lectures Harry. 

      On the quidditch field, Draco calls Hermione a "mudblood," insulting her Muggle heritage. After that, Draco is suspected as someone who petrifies Mrs. Norris and writes a threatening message while the Halloween night. Before the cat is attacked, Harry twice hears a horrible voice. He hears it first during his detention and second during a party, moment before the cat is attacked. By doing some research, Harry, Ron, and Hermione learn that fifty years ago a chamber at Hogwarts was opened and a student was killed. During the Quidditch game, an enchanted ball hits Harry and causes him to lose the bones in his arm. It is caused by Dobby because Dobby want Harry injured and sent home. Soon after, Lockhart begins a dueling club. 

      During the first meeting, Harry terrifies his fellow students by speaking in Parseltongue to a snake. Harry's ability frightens the others because only the heir of Slytherin, who is responsible for opening the chamber, would have the ability to converse with snakes. Harry stumbles upon the petrified bodies of Justin Finch-Fletchley and Nearly- Headless Nick. Ron, Harry and Hermione used Polyjuice to assume the bodies of Slytherins and question Malfoy about the Chamber of Secrets. They find out that Malfoy is not the heir of Slytherin. Then, Harry finds a diary belongs to a ghost named Moaning Myrtle in the broken toilet. Harry writes in the diary, which responds by writing back and meets Tom Riddle through it, a boy who had accused Hagrid of opening the Chamber of Secrets in the past. Harry and Ron venture out of the castle to question Hagrid. Before they reach Hagrid, the Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge, and Lucius Malfoy remove Dumbledore and Hagrid from Hogwarts. As Hagrid is led away, he instructs the boys to follow the spiders to find out the Chamber monster. 

      Then, Harry and Ron sneak into the Forbidden Forest. They discover the monster that killed the girl fifty years before was not a spider that the girl’s body was found in a bathroom and that Hagrid is innocent. The boys are almost killed by Aragog and his colony. As they escape, Harry and Ron decide that Moaning Myrtle must have been the girl killed by the monster. A few days later, Ron and Harry discover a clue of basilisk in Hermione's frozen hand and Ginny Weasley has been taken into the chamber. Ron, Harry, and Lockhart slide down a secret passage in Myrtle's bathroom to underground tunnels. Harry enters the Chamber of Secrets alone and encounters Ginny and Tom Riddle. Tom is younger version of Voldemort, who has enchanted Ginny through his journal. Harry calls Dumbledore’s help. A phoenix and a magic hat arrive. Tom summons a basilisk, but the phoenix punctures its eyes. The hat produces a sword, which Harry uses to kill the giant snake. Harry sticks a basilisk fang through the diary, destroying Tom. Ginny wakes up.

      Then, Harry told it to Dumbledore. Lucius Malfoy storms into the office with his house-elf, Dobby, and Harry frees Dobby by tricking Lucius to give Dobby a sock. All is well in the castle as the students leave for their summer vacations.
