Hufflepuff Cup location

[Hagrid]

No: HPFGUIDX 133868

The 50th anniversay of Hepzibah Smith's murder will come up in book 
7 maybe. Having a Hufflepuff connection, she was probably related to 
Zacharias. He was a Member of Dumbledore's Army, who plays Chaser on 
the Hufflepuff Quidditch team.

The family was very interested in tracking down that heirloom, so 
has heard more rumours of sightings than anyone else.

If the cup was as visible as the diary (left in Lucius Malfoy's 
keeping), then the Smith clan may have some information.

If it is in a secure location, I suggest another cave like place:-
The Chamber of Secrets. I don't think the tunnels have been 
extensively searched.

Where else is safer than a Chamber that none of the Hogwarts staff 
could find (because they were not Parsaltongues)and has been guarded 
by a Basalisk for centuries?

Riddle would have been confident to use the Chamber that none could 
open except the heir of Slytherin. 

Besides, it would be a good excuse for Harry to go back to Hogwarts 
next year.
