After the vote passed, Lucius quickly summoned three Japanese handlers from the nature preserve and told them, what they had to do. He also handed them the portrait of Salazar Slytherin, so that he could calm his familiar down. They informed the board that it would take some months and that they could remove the basilisk, if the animal was calm enough, that it could be moved. They would let Salazar talk with the snake, in order to gain more access to get the snake out of the school. At the beginning of July, the basilisk would be removed from the school and would live in the nature preserve in Japan that would be prepared there.
