Li Weide sighed again, "Alphard, you are also a member of a pure-blood family, and you should have your own pride and dignity. How can you always be bullied by your sister like this?"

"I can't help it, Weide. I don't want to, but… my sister is just too fierce! It's okay if I get beaten for doing something wrong, that's what should happen. But… if she's upset outside, or just in a bad mood…"

Alphard swallowed hard, as if recalling a very painful memory.

"Tsk, that's why I can't understand you British pure-blood families…" Li Weide shook his head.

Alphard couldn't help but lower his head, filled with shame.

Their Black family could be considered a pure-blood family with a long history, but compared to others, in every aspect, they were far inferior.

"Anyway, I've said what I needed to say. Take care of yourself." After showing off, Li Weide brushed past Alphard and walked into the common room.

Annie didn't follow, but asked Alphard, "How did you know about his family's affairs? Although I am his friend, he never seems to mention his family's affairs to us."

Alphard said, "He told me himself. At that time, my sister thought he was a Mudblood… Weide was furious then."

"To be honest, my sister really went too far. Even if the other person isn't a pure-blood, she shouldn't use such insulting words…"

"He said it himself… Did no one vouch for him?" Annie asked.

Alphard shook his head, "Is there even a need to vouch? I've never seen a pure-blood who looks more like a pure-blood than him."

This sentence made Annie fall into deep thought.

Recalling her interactions with Li Weide, recalling his behavior.

Annie realized that although Li Weide always had a gentle smile on his face towards everyone, he hid a deep pride in his bones.

It was as if… he always felt above everyone else.

If he were just Muggle-born, or from an ordinary pure-blood family, it would be impossible to have this unique temperament.

Alphard was right, Annie had also never seen a pure-blood wizard who looked more like a pure-blood than him…

Annie also thought of Tom. Compared to Li Weide's restraint, Tom's pride could be said to be overflowing.

However, only in front of Li Weide would Tom unconsciously restrain his pride…

This couldn't help but make people think.

…

Tom only appeared in the dormitory very late.

However, his complexion wasn't very good, so it seemed he hadn't found the answer he was looking for in the library.

The library closed relatively early, which meant that after Tom left the library, he had wandered outside for a long time before returning to the dormitory.

Clearly, this experience had a great impact on him.

At this time, his roommates Alphard and Henry were already asleep.

Li Weide was also lying quietly on the bed.

Tom glanced at Li Weide, then lay back on the bed without saying a word.

"You wouldn't have taken Annie's words to heart, would you?" Li Weide suddenly asked softly.

"In any case, isn't this a clue?" Tom said weakly, "But I've searched all the records about Slytherin, and I couldn't find any records related to… the Riddle surname."

"Perhaps… you can look for records about your mother's surname. What's your mother's name? Do you know?" Li Weide asked.

"Yes… Mrs. Cole once told me that her name was Merope Gaunt," Tom said.

"Then I think you can check the Gaunt surname," Li Weide prompted again.

Tom frowned, looking at the ceiling. "But how could that be? If my mother was… a descendant of that person, how could she have died so uselessly?"

Li Weide said calmly, "Tom, you've seen the children of those pure-blood families… You should know what level most of these people are at."

Li Weide's words caused Tom to fall silent. For a moment, he couldn't accept the most likely conclusion that his mother was a mediocre witch.

He still preferred to believe his previous guess.

That was, his father was a wizard, and his mother was just a Muggle…

"Looks like you're going to have a hard time sleeping tonight?"

"Yeah…" Tom said dejectedly.

Li Weide looked at the time, then jumped up.

"Where are you going?" Tom asked.

Li Weide said, "I think you might need a Draught of Living Death. I remember I seem to have quite a bit left…"

"No, I don't need it," Tom chose to refuse.

It's better not to touch Li Weide's potions…

"Okay, then. Then you can only lie there," Li Weide reached out from the head of the bed, grabbed a bottle of potion, tilted his head back, and drank it all, then walked towards the dormitory door.

"Where are you going?" Tom asked in confusion.

He thought Li Weide had drunk the Draught of Living Death.

However, Li Weide didn't lie down to sleep after drinking the potion, but instead walked straight outside, which immediately aroused Tom's curiosity.

"I need to find something…" Li Weide said as he left the dormitory.

In the common room late at night, there was no one.

Even the ghosts were dozing off by the fireplace.

Li Weide never knew that ghosts needed to sleep, of course, it was also possible that this ghost was missing his habits when he was still a human…

Li Weide carefully opened the door of the common room and walked out.

He stood in the corridor of Hogwarts Castle, taking a deep breath of the cold night air.

Then he raised his wand, preparing to cast a Disillusionment Charm on himself.

"You're going night wandering?" Tom's suppressed voice came from behind him.

"You should go to sleep, Tom," Li Weide turned his head, frowning at Tom.

Tom said, "I can't sleep anyway… Take me with you."

Li Weide was silent for a while before asking, "Do you know where I'm going?"

No mistake, one first, one hair, one inside, one content, one in, one look!

"I guess… it should be the Restricted Section," Tom shrugged.

"How do you know?"

"You said you were going to take a stroll during the day, but you were actually scouting, right? And when you were 'strolling', you were clearly going in the opposite direction from me, but in the end, you were able to run into me fighting with someone on the way to the library… In other words, your destination is the library, and in the library, the only thing that could interest you is the books in the Restricted Section."

Li Weide was silent again for a while, "Your reasoning process is very far-fetched, Tom…"

"Okay, I saw the route map you drew. Stop talking nonsense, I also want to go to the Restricted Section. Are you taking me or not? If you don't, I'll go by myself," Tom seemed a little impatient.

"About Slytherin's affairs… You want to go to the Restricted Section to look for it too? Fine! Then come with me, but remember, don't hold me back," Li Weide said, pointing his wand at Tom's shoulder.

Tom suddenly felt a chill all over his body, and then he saw his body becoming illusory.

"Disillusionment Charm? You've even mastered such an advanced spell…"

"Don't think you're the only one who works hard, Tom."

Li Weide said, casting a Disillusionment Charm on himself as well.

"By the way, I'll teach you another spell. This spell will allow you to see clearly even in the night."

Tom said in surprise, "It seems you've made very thorough preparations!"

Li Weide said unhappily, "I learned another lesson today, which is that no matter how thorough the preparations, no matter how comprehensive the plan, there is a possibility of change… That change is you, Tom."

Tom knew he was in the wrong for Li Weide's words, so he didn't dare to interrupt, for fear that this guy would go back on his word and give him a Stunning Spell instead.

He had to concentrate on learning the spell that Li Weide taught him to see at night.

This way, they wouldn't have to carry oil lamps or use Lumos to illuminate the way.

Night wandering with a light source would defeat the purpose of the Disillusionment Charm…

"There's also this Whispering Charm. It will prevent your voice from being heard for the next hour, only reaching the ears of the designated person. I call it team voice."

Tom was amazed by the Whispering Charm, "What's the structure of your brain? How can you even create such spells?!"

"It's just a small modification of the Silencing Charm…" Li Weide said calmly.

…

Tom's talent was frighteningly good.

It didn't take much time for him to learn the two spells that Li Weide taught him.

Five minutes later, they were already on their way to the Hogwarts library.

"What exactly are you looking for?" Tom asked.

Since they were in "team voice" mode, they couldn't hear any sound in the dark corridor even if they spoke casually.

Li Weide said, "That's a really interesting question… Of course, going to the Restricted Section is to look for books, it can't be to eat there."

"Did you eat chili peppers tonight? Why are you so angry?"

"Guess why?"

Tom said helplessly, "Okay, it's because of me. I know… I'll shut up."

Li Weide was very cautious along the way.

He would pass through dark places quickly, but whenever there was moonlight or lighting, Li Weide would crouch down and slowly pass in front of those paintings that looked like they were dozing off.

This level of professionalism made Tom marvel. If it weren't for the fact that today was his first day of school, Tom would have thought that Li Weide had been night wandering like this many, many times.

Of course, Li Weide had to be careful, because in this short distance, they had encountered Professor McGonagall patrolling the night once, a group of ghosts who didn't need to sleep, and their castle caretaker…

"Finally here… There seems to be someone there?" Tom suddenly asked, pointing to the library door.

Li Weide only glanced at it and recognized who it was.

"Peeves, a mischievous ghost… Or maybe something even more troublesome than a ghost. Anyway, if he finds out we're night wandering, then without waiting until tomorrow, in five minutes, we'll have to appear in Dumbledore's office, and then tragically lose the one hundred points we managed to get back today…"
