Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 576: Tom didn’t know

"Albus, why are you here?"

Professor McGonagall asked subconsciously after seeing Dumbledore.

"I just came downstairs for a cup of hot chocolate, what's going on here?" Dumbledore asked, noticing the change in the expression on Professor McGonagall's face at a glance.

"I heard a strange voice... By the way, I just discovered Mr. Creevey, and he is very likely... petrified." Professor McGonagall looked up at Dumbledore as he spoke to Dumbledore. Looking at the end of the corridor, there seems to be something over there.

"What did you find?" Dumbledore followed Professor McGonagall's gaze.

"I think that voice just now... is most likely made by the guy who attacked Mr. Creevey and Argus' cat." Professor McGonagall hesitated for a moment, then expressed his opinion on the matter." The sound was not walking, but the sound of something being dragged on the ground."

"Go and see..."

Dumbledore drew his wand and walked forward at a brisk pace. Professor McGonagall immediately followed, and when they crossed the corridor and stood at the corner, the surroundings were dead silent, and there was no strange sound.

"Hidden?"

Professor McGonagall listened, lowered her voice and said, "But how did he do it, is it a secret passage?"

"Okay, calm down Minerva." Dumbledore said calmly, looking at the deep darkness at the end of the corridor, "Now that the attackers have run away, I think we'd better take Mr. Creevey first. Take him to the school hospital, where is he?"

"On the stairs over there."

Professor McGonagall took a deep breath and followed Dumbledore towards the stairs. The two quickly found the petrified boy.

Dumbledore crouched down and checked the boy's condition. After finding that he was only petrified, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, "He was petrified, we sent him to the school hospital."

Speaking, Dumbledore reached out and lifted Colin's shoulders, and Professor McGonagall also lifted Colin's feet together. The two slowly lifted Colin's body up the stairs. , went to the school hospital not far from here.

On the other side of the castle, Tom Riddle has successfully recalled the Basilisk.

Professor McGonagall's appearance was somewhat unexpected.

Fortunately, the other party didn't chase after him immediately, otherwise there would be an accident.

After all, as a Transfiguration Professor at Hogwarts, Professor McGonagall's ability should not be underestimated. Once the Basilisk fails to kill or petrify it in the first place, it will cause a series of chain problems.

The aftermath of the battle is very likely to wake up all the students in the entire school, not to mention that Dumbledore is nearby.

Tom Riddle doesn't want to be exposed just yet.

However, things are going well.

The basilisk returned to the secret room, and the two men chased after him. It was too late.

Only Parseltongue can open the Chamber of Secrets.

After Dumbledore and McGonagall chased down the Basilisk, they immediately gave up looking for him and went to the school hospital together.

Tom Riddle has controlled Ginny Weasley towards the Room of Requirement, where he intends to keep Ginny Weasley for the night.

After all, returning to the Gryffindor common room in the middle of the night is suspicious no matter what, and the portrait of the gatekeeper will certainly raise suspicion.

As for not returning overnight?

Tom made preparations for a long time, and before leaving, he cast a spell on several of Ginny Weasley's roommates, letting them sleep until dawn without worrying about waking up in the middle of the night to find that Ginny was not in the dormitory.

It was confirmed again and again that Dumbledore and McGonagall had gone to the school hospital, and that Tom Riddle had reached the eighth floor through the secret passage, standing in front of the Room of Requirement.

"Dumbledore is as annoying as ever."

Tom stared at Dumbledore's footnotes on the map, and the expression on his face became more and more hideous, "However, you can't stop me, fifty years ago, and you can't now."

After speaking, Tom closed the diary and was about to enter the Room of Requirement when he suddenly felt as if someone was watching him.

He turned his head suddenly, looked around, and found no one else, the quiet darkness was thick and terrifying.

Tom opened the Room of Requirement and pushed open the door to enter when he suddenly noticed a magical light behind him.

Before Tom could react, a magic hit Ginny Weasley from behind, causing her to stagger two steps forward and fall to the ground.

Who the **** attacked me.

Tom Mingming also deliberately used a mantra to make sure no one else was around.

How did the other party hide...

Tom loses control of Ginny Weasley's body even though he tries his best to resist the Stunning Charm, not knowing who attacked him until the end.

After Ginny Weasley was knocked down by the Stunning Curse, Albert emerged from the void without warning, followed him into the Room of Requirement, and closed the door.

"Things went better than expected."

Albert lifts his foot to remove the wand from Ginny Weasley's hand, and takes out the box Nicole Lemay sent him from the shapeshifting lizard skin pouch. He started wearing dragonskin gloves before putting Tom Riddle's diary into the box from Ginny's hand.

"In this way, I will see how you can trouble me."

Albert snorted happily ~IndoMTL.com~ ready to cook up this diary another day. He waved his wand and cast a Disillusionment Charm on Ginny Weasley, temporarily sending her out of the Room of Requirement.

Albert will then be returned to the trash heap in the Room of Requirement, in the box containing Tom Riddle's diary.

Sounds a little funny.

Albert designed Dumbledore to take away Voldemort's Horcrux, and now he is hiding Voldemort's diary Horcrux here.

He needs to buy himself enough time to be fully prepared for Tom Riddle's diary.

Albert is convinced that, with proper control, Tom's Horcrux will be a hen that lays golden eggs, providing him with ample mission experience and rewards, and with minimal risk, compared to last semester's Tool Guy Quirrell works just fine.

Well, it also reduces the impact of the Slytherin Chamber on Hogwarts.

I really am a good person.

After leaving the Room of Requirement, Albert rushed back to the Gryffindor common room with Ginny Weasley as soon as possible.

The fat lady still hasn't returned, but someone has helped him open the entrance to the common room.

After Albert walked into the Gryffindor common room, the familiar voice suddenly sounded, "You should go, it's better to go to the bathroom, the second to last.

“What about her?”

"I'll take care of it," the voice said calmly.

"Excuse me." Albert walked upstairs, and when he disappeared at the end of the stairs, another Albert appeared out of nowhere, looked at the unconscious Ginny Weasley, and murmured: "You should thank me well."
