Tom doesn’t know how to kill, or at first he doesn’t want to kill.
This is something Wayne is very sure of.
Of course, if Tom were replaced by Voldemort, he would definitely not throw the diary away so carelessly.
He simply burned the Horcrux with fierce fire.
One of them has brains and the other is crazy, so they cannot be compared.
No one can guess what psychotic thoughts are.
Wayne carefully analyzed why Tom released the basilisk.
The most important thing is that it has two purposes.
The first is to take revenge on Dumbledore.
Voldemort hated Harry the most, because Harry was his prophesied enemy and had successfully defeated him once, so he regarded Harry as his old enemy.
But what Tom hated most was Dumbledore.
Tom was very successful at pretending to be a good student at school. All the professors and students liked him very much, and he even became the president of the student union.
Only Dumbledore has always doubted him, especially after Myrtle’s death, he has been staring at him.
As a last resort, Tom had no choice but to close the secret room and blame everything on Hagrid. He remained honest until graduation.
After graduation, he wanted to stay in the school and teach Defense Against the Dark Arts, but Dumbledore stopped him.
So he opened the secret room and released the basilisk in order to take revenge on Dumbledore and drive Dumbledore out of the school.
Once someone kills someone, the effect will be too violent. Not only will Dumbledore be driven away, but the school will be closed, and he will also be forced to leave Hogwarts.
Second?…Just to eat away at the host’s vitality and even soul.
Each time you control the host, you gradually gain control over their body and soul.
In the original book, Ginny was affected in this way.
But there are still many mysteries that Wien is not sure about.
According to Harry, he and Lockhart were staying together when the incident happened, so who was controlling the basilisk to petrify Smith.
Also, if we continue to develop in the current way,…It seemed that the ideological education lessons he gave Tom had no effect.
He still has no foresight and only knows how to make small moves.
Since Hermione and Qiu were here, Wayne couldn’t be too distracted. He could only write down these doubts first and observe them slowly when he went back.
He told the two women what he saw and heard in Beauxbatons.
Although I used to chat through the address book every day, it only took a little time in total.
I still have to share it with several people, and sometimes I have to talk to Nico about alchemy, so it all ends in a hurry.
Wayne showed the two of them some photos he had taken.
Looking at Beauxbatons, which was full of gardens and fountains, Hermione was filled with envy.
She liked the castle at Hogwarts very much, but there were really few places for students to relax in the school.
It’s just the large lawn beside the Black Lake.
After staying for a while, the three of them left the Room of Requirement.
Qiu and Hermione returned to the lounge, but Wayne still stayed on the eighth floor, waiting for Penello to arrive and get his suitcase back.
He felt that he needed a time-turner so badly that it was going to be too much to manage.
Meanwhile, the principal’s office.
Dumbledore crossed his fingers and laid them flat on the table, thinking.
“How much do you know about the Chamber of Secrets?”
“Do you think the Dark Lord would say that?”Snape sat on the sofa and said without raising his head:”He will never share his secrets with others, let alone discuss his past.”
“The Dark Lord wished that all the people who went to school with him would die, but in fact he almost did.”
Snape unconsciously gathered his robes.
“Are you so sure that this was his fault?”
“Pretty close.”Dumbledore recalled the past:”Hagrid was expelled at that time, and the matter was settled, but I felt that I couldn’t get rid of him.”
“Do you think he will be afraid?”Snape sneered.
“certainly.”Dumbledore said matter-of-factly:”Everyone has things to fear, and what Tom was most afraid of at that time was undoubtedly leaving the magical world.”
“In that case, he can only go back to the orphanage”
“I’m not interested in these. Snape shook his head:”I just want to find out the source and who is the real murderer.””
“The murderer is still unknown, but I do know the source.”Dumbledore smiled and said:
“House elves cannot betray their masters, but I still gained some useful information.”
House elf?
Snape suddenly raised his head and looked at the old man
“Yes, Mr. Malfoy seems to have something against me.”Dumbledore said softly,”He sent a dangerous item to Hogwarts.”
“What is it?”
“I have no idea.”Dumbledore sighed:”But at present, it has nothing to do with the current situation.”
“Lucius?…”Snape unconsciously rubbed his fingers and suddenly thought of something
“Dumbledore, Flint told me before….”
Snape told everything about the conversation between him and Douglas Flint. After listening to it, Dumbledore burst into laughter.
“It seems that I am quite unpopular.”
“What do you think?”Snape sneered,”Your attitude towards pure bloods has never been satisfactory. You are always demanding them.”
“No, I’m just trying to be fair.”
Dumbledore corrected:”They have received too much preferential treatment in the past, I just want to get everything back on track.”
“If I had really targeted them, Slytherin wouldn’t have won the House Cup six years in a row.”
Snape’s expression froze.
He felt that this was a slander.
“What are you going to do? The old bat changed the subject and said,”Do you want me to ask Lucius?””
“He won’t admit it. Dumbledore shook his head:”Now we can only wait until the next operation to see if we can catch some clues.””
“When we get back, we’ll take a closer look at Zabini and Malfoy.”
“I see.”Snape nodded.
“Okay, let’s not talk about these heavy topics.”
Dumbledore smiled and waved his hand, and tea and snacks appeared on the table.
Snape picked up the tea and was not interested in the snacks.
Last time he ate a piece of honey sizzling candy, but it turned out to be super sweet. Version, he was so tired that he didn’t eat anything else all day
“How was your experience at Beauxbatons this time?”
“There are some.”Snape took a sip of tea and said calmly:”At least Beauxbatons has done a good job in respecting teachers and respecting morality.”
“Being lively is not a bad thing. I hope everyone can learn happily.”Dumbledore was noncommittal.
“what about others?”
“There is nothing else to say.”
He has the same attitude as Wayne. In terms of level, the professors at Beauxbatons are all idiots, and they are not as good as the four deans of Hogwarts at all.
What, you mean Defense Against the Dark Arts?
I’m sorry. , Hogwarts does not offer this course
“correct. Snape suddenly asked:”You shouldn’t know what magic potion Lawrence refined in the final game, right?””
“What?”
“Flying Potion, a brand new potion he developed himself, can allow people to fly in the sky for half an hour, not much slower than a broom.”
“It won’t be long before you can see relevant reports in the Daily Prophet.”
Dumbledore was also very surprised:”Flying Potion…Can magic potions still do this?”
Although not as good as Snape, Dumbledore can be considered a master of potions.
Using potions to obtain the ability to fly is a bit incredible just listening to it, otherwise no one would be able to do it until now. arrive
“Carell personally experimented, and it won’t be long before Lawrence can receive another Medal of Merlin.”
“He is truly a person favored by Merlin.”Dumbledore sighed:”The students relied on potions to win the Order of Merlin, but the professor did not.”
“I don’t know if the Potions Professor would be embarrassed.”
Snape’s face suddenly turned as dark as ink.
If you don’t know how to speak, don’t speak. Isn’t it fun to hurt your heart?!
The next day, the news of Smith’s attack spread throughout the castle.
The atmosphere that had been quite relaxed suddenly changed again. They had to get nervous.
The deans also informed the prefects to manage their respective students and not appear alone in the castle. They must travel in groups.
During breakfast, there was a little tail beside Wayne.
Astoria Sitting next to Wayne obediently, waiting to be fed
“Why do you feel like you’ve lost weight again?”Wen looked at the white-haired lolita and asked strangely.
“Just lost weight. Astoria said weakly:”I’ve been feeling a little unwell recently, and I don’t have much appetite.””
Even if the curse is not completely removed, it will still devour her vitality.
Cutting off treatment for more than a month will indeed have an impact.
“Blame me.”After touching the girl’s head, Wayne gave her a plate of eggs and sprinkled them with ketchup.
“Eat more, I’ll ask Gardevoir to take you out tonight.” (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
“Um!”Astoria smiled like a flower.
At this time, Dumbledore walked into the auditorium.
He said a few words briefly, congratulating the three of Wayne on their good results in the potions exchange competition.
Wayne is Hufflepuff. After receiving one hundred extra points, Henderson and Russell also received twenty points for their hard work.
The second-grade wizards lined up in a line and followed the prefect to the classroom.
“Roberts, I have something to do with the principal. You can leave first.”Wayne said to the team leader.
“Then go ahead. Roberts nodded:”Class is about to start, don’t be late.””
“knew.”
If it were anyone else, Roberts would never agree, but there would be no problem with Wayne. If a problem does arise, it’s not certain who will protect whom.
Before the bell rang, Wayne finally arrived in the classroom and sat down Hermione’s side
“Warm your hands quickly.”Wayne stretched out his hand.
Hermione held Wayne’s big hand with her soft little hand and asked curiously:”What did you say to Dumbledore?”
“It’s just a reward. I got an extra 100 points by winning the championship. I have to make up for it from other places.”
“What reward?”
“You’ll know in a moment”[]
Before the bell rang, Lockhart walked into the classroom with his books in his arms. When he saw Wayne, he smiled with surprise.
“Lo and behold, our Potions Champion is back!”
“Let’s all give applause to Mr. Lawrence, he has brought us glory!
The little wizards clapped in unison, and Lockhart smiled and said,”Mr. Lawrence, you are really lucky.””
“I often wonder why these ancient competitions were discontinued when I was in school? For example, the Triwizard Tournament made me miss an opportunity to accumulate honors for the school.”
The classroom immediately became silent….
If Lockhart had said this when school first started, there would have been many voices of agreement.
But now?…
Even Lockhart’s most loyal female fans won’t believe his lies.
They can only use the fact that their brother has worked very hard to defend Lockhart.
“Okay, no rehearsal today, let me teach you some spell casting techniques….”
Lockhart opened the book and began to read.
The main reason why Lockhart has not been complained by the students to the extent of Quirrell is because his speech ability is a hundred times better than Quirrell.
In addition, a lot of the knowledge in the book is true, and students can also learn something.
Hermione listened to Lockhart’s story and took notes.
Wayne lowered his head slightly, but raised his eyelids, observing Lockhart with his peripheral vision.
His skin was pale, his energy was listless, and he had obviously been sucked dry by Tom.
But the logic of his words, 133, and his consistent behavior proved that Lockhart was not aware of anything wrong with the diary.
With Wayne’s eyesight, he could see that his narcissism and arrogance were not just an act.
So how did Tom do it?
When get out of class was about to end, Lockhart assigned homework, looked at Wayne again, and joked:
“Lawrence, even if you win the championship, you still have to make up for the missing lessons. This is also for your own good.”
“In two weeks, I want to see those assignments you left behind”
“Professor Lockhart.”Wen stood up with a smile:”I was about to tell you the good news.”
“Dumbledore had promised me in the morning that I wouldn’t have to do any more homework this semester. After all, researching new potions requires a lot of energy.”
Hermione, who was still waiting to see Wayne’s joke, couldn’t laugh anymore.
Is this the reward that Wayne wants from Dumbledore?
What a smart villain.
The little witch rolled her cute eyes.
Lockhart didn’t either. Thinking that Wayne actually had such a hand, his expression was stunned.
“You didn’t lie to me?”
“Professor, this is a note from Dumbledore.”Wayne took out a piece of paper and shook it.
“Okay, okay. Lockhart said awkwardly:”Even if Dumbledore agrees, don’t slack off. The questions in my final exam will be very difficult.””
“Thank you for reminding.”Wayne replied in a neither humble nor arrogant tone.
Whether you can survive until the final exam is still a question….
After class, Wayne deliberately approached Lockhart and asked with concern:”Professor, I think your mental state is not very good. You must pay more attention to rest.”
After finishing speaking, Wayne was stunned for a moment.
This familiar feeling.
He said the exact same thing to Quirrell last year.
They are all Defense Against the Dark Arts professors, and they are all people who were bewitched by Voldemort.
Well, they were all tricked by him….
I can only say it’s all fate.
“Thank you for your concern, Lawrence. Lockhart said happily:”I feel very good. I have been studying a very powerful magic recently and spent a lot of energy on it.””
“Yes, a magic that can change the magic world. If I have the chance, I will definitely show it to you.”
“I look forward to your performance.”Wayne agreed with a smile. After a few words of greeting, he walked out of the classroom.
Lockhart continued to pack his books with his head down.
What even he didn’t notice was that a glimmer of light appeared in the depths of his eyes. As time passed , The weekend came in a blink of an eye.
When Wayne was about to go out to the Forbidden Forest to transplant some flowers and plants and put them in a suitcase for the fairies to take care of.
Harry and Ron blocked him at the edge of the Black Lake.
“Help me, Wayne!”Harry said beggingly:”Who is the murderer who opened the secret room? I was really wronged.”
