Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 581: Be patient, be patient
Tom Riddle felt irritable for no reason.
Last time, he controlled a Basilisk through Ginny Weasley, attacked a Mudblood at night, and managed to trick Dumbledore and McGonagall.
As a result, on the way to the House of Requirement, he was attacked from behind.
What irritated Tom Riddle even more was that he had no idea who the attacker was.
The other party was clearly prepared, and seized the opportunity so well that he didn't even have time to react, so he was inexplicably caught.
Since Ginny Weasley put a lot of energy into the diary and gradually opened his heart to him, Tom's power gradually became stronger, even strong enough to control Ginny Weasley, But he never thought that the other party slapped him fiercely when he was most proud.
After that time, no one wrote in the diary.
Tom Riddle lost direct contact with the outside world, and could no longer sense and influence the outside world.
I don't know how long it took before someone finally wrote something in the diary again.
Tom Riddle doesn't know if this guy is the guy who attacked him in the first place. What's worse is that this guy has done a lot of strange things to his diary.
Then, try to communicate with him.
I'm Gilderoy Lockhart, Professor of Defence Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts, recipient of the Order of Merlin 3rd Class, and Honorary Member of the Alliance Against the Dark Arts.
After seeing this, Tom Riddle realized that the other party was most likely the guy who attacked him at the time.
Although Ginny Weasley once mentioned that Defence Against the Dark Arts class sucks, apparently this guy is hiding himself on purpose.
Tom Riddle was unaware of Lockhart's presence near the diary, who was clearly far from the diary and was on guard at all times.
Although Tom Riddle is extremely annoyed, he believes that he can handle this guy, as long as he continues to communicate with him in the diary, he can handle him.
Before Tom could answer, the other party continued to write in the diary:
"I tested it just now, this journal is a dark magic item."
Tom Riddle understands people's hearts. He knows that the other person can't wait to communicate with him, so he has the patience to hang the other person's appetite.
I'm curious what kind of dark magic item this is, maybe...
Although it's not finished, Tom Riddle has already smelled a threatening smell in the other party's words.
However, Tom Riddle didn't care, the other party made a stupid mistake, and he shouldn't have tried to study the diary, much less try to communicate with him.
Tom Riddle knew exactly what these self-righteous guys were thinking, and he finally recovered after cooling off for a while:
"Hello Gilderoy Lockhart. My name is Tom Riddle. How did you find my diary"
Tom Riddle wants to take the initiative. Only in this way can he control the direction of the communication between the two parties and lure the other party...
However, Tom Riddle had no idea that he was facing an opponent that wasn't your average opponent at all.
As soon as Albert looked through the mirror and saw the words that quickly appeared and disappeared on the diary, he immediately realized that Tom Riddle was testing himself, and that he was trying to control the topic of communication between the two parties, so he immediately controlled The quill pen wrote in the diary:
"Tom Riddle, I know who you are.
Students who received the Special Contribution Award fifty years ago, still have your medal in the Hogwarts display case.
Can you tell me what you are now? "
To be honest, Tom was stunned at this moment. He didn't expect the guy named Gilderoy Lockhart to think so fast.
In other words, the other party only intended to ask questions from the beginning, not to answer him.
Should I ignore the other person directly.
Tom Riddle keeps telling himself that he needs a little patience, Gilderoy Lockhart is good at dealing with dark wizards after all, and it's normal to be wary of journals.
After all, Gilderoy Lockhart believed from the beginning that the diary was a dark magic item, and that he should find a way to let the other party relax their vigilance and dispel suspicion.
"Me? I'm Tom Riddle, of course, and it's just a diary. Back then, I tried to record my past in a way that was more durable than ink, and you can think of it as just a memory."
Tom Riddle's carefully worded response to Gilderoy Lockhart's question, or Albert's.
"You're lying, the diary is a dark magic item, and I just passed the spying test."
The answer was quick, but Tom Riddle felt a stomach ache. (Oh yes, he has no stomach now.)
At this moment, Tom was even more convinced that this guy attacked him.
So, he must be aware that the diary can control Ginny Weasley in some special way, and the other party is trying to communicate with him just to figure this out.
However, since the other party pretended not to know to communicate with him, it was an opportunity for Tom Riddle.
"There are always some people who don't want their past to be known, so I use a diary to record them."
No matter what the other party thinks, Tom Riddle is going to continue to disguise ~IndoMTL.com~ until the other party first tears the hypocrisy.
"About the Chamber of Secrets?"
Without waiting for Tom Riddle to answer, he continued to write:
"So, you won the special contribution award, in fact, you captured the heir of Slytherin
And what you mean by 'don't want to be known about the past' means who is the heir of Slytherin, where is the secret room, how to open it, and what kind of monsters are locked inside"
Tom Riddle felt very uncomfortable. He felt that he was being led by Gilderoy Lockhart's nose, but he still suppressed his inner anxiety and replied patiently:
"You guessed it right. When I was in fifth grade, the back room was opened and monsters attacked several students and killed one.
Finally, I caught the man who opened the chamber, he was fired, but the monster was alive, and the man who had the power to release it, was not locked up.
The Special Contribution Award was the hush money that the principal, Professor Dippet, gave me for not allowing me to tell the truth. He warned me not to talk nonsense, so I recorded the truth in my diary. "
"When you call the prisoner who opened the secret room, you mean Hagrid, right? He told me personally that you caught him and slandered him as a prisoner."
Tom Riddle was suddenly silent. He had realized that he was being teased by the other party. From the beginning, the other party had been teasing him. This was definitely the guy who attacked him.
Without outright swearing, Tom Riddle is already well-bred.
Okay!
If it wasn't for the inability to get out of the diary, the young Voldemort would have drawn his wand and rewarded that **** Gilderoy Lockhart with an Avada.
