I was expelled from Hogwarts?

Chapter 172 Tom Riddle's Purpose

school clinic.

Lockhart was cooking a small stove for himself, and was eating happily, when he saw a group of people walking through the door and entering the ward.

He was a little flustered and startled for a while, and quickly covered the red wine, French duck neck and duck collarbone with a quilt.

During Halloween, I didn't forget him as a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, and he even brought gifts to the school hospital to express his condolences. The humanistic care of Hogwarts... is indeed possible.

Thinking so, Lockhart wiped the oil stains from the corner of his mouth, and quickly walked up to him.

Professor Dumbledore, I'm sorry to trouble you.

Lockhart glanced around and saw that everyone came empty-handed and did not bring any Halloween gifts, so he silently took back the praise of humanistic care.

If you pay lip service but don't tell the truth, you will do superficial work!

We didn't come to see you, Professor Lockhart. Snape said with a strange smile on his face:

I sent someone to spend Halloween with you.

Lockhart looked blankly, and was also taken aback. He saw Filch floating in mid-air, covered in blood and emitting black smoke, which was truly frightening.

Has someone been injured at Hogwarts again? Lockhart was puzzled, It's only been two months.

Everyone has different expressions. After all, this is a big truth that can no longer be objective, but there is nothing they can do about it, because it is like this every year.

Dumbledore, expressionless, waved his wand, and Filch floated to the bed next to Lockhart, where he finally settled down.

The corner of Lockhart's mouth twitched, what was the meaning of putting such a half-dead wizard next to him?

However, Lockhart, who is a showman, went to check on Filch's injuries due to an occupational disease. He yelled:

It must have been a spell that killed him... definitely the torture spell, I've seen people use it many times.

It is detailed in my autobiography. At that time, I provided all kinds of amulets to Muggles, which solved the problem at once...

Lockhart sighed sadly, It's a pity I wasn't there just now, I happened to know the solution to the curse, which could have saved Filch...

It is indeed a torture curse. Dumbledore looked up and said, Professor Lockhart, you are right this time.

Lockhart's self-expression management is not bad, and the momentary shock turned into complacency: I'll just say it.

I remember Professor Lockhart is not in the auditorium tonight? Snape interrupted suddenly.

I've been in the school hospital. Lockhart said hastily.

But who can prove that you have never gone out? Snape rolled his lips and said:

You just said that you are proficient in torture spells. This magic is not something that young wizards can easily cast.

Professor Dumbledore...you don't doubt me, do you? Lockhart was a little speechless. He looked at the headmaster and gasped for breath, I really didn't do it!

The old man glanced at Lockhart with his bright blue eyes, and he said calmly:

You shouldn't doubt anyone without proof, Severus.

Snape snorted disapprovingly.

I'm going to the bathroom first. Lockhart fled in despair.

Give Filch a dose of life-death water and let him sleep well. Dumbledore sighed:

He was severely tortured, and his injuries recovered easily, but the fear in his heart could not be eliminated in a short time.

Professor McGonagall opened the door and walked in, and she handed over a piece of parchment.

After Dumbledore took it, he just glanced at it and put it in his pocket. There were many students on the list, because the dinner was very long, and many students had left the auditorium.

Professor Dumbledore, does Filch know who did it? Professor McGonagall worried.

I just looked at his memory, and it was blank. Dumbledore shook his head and said, He was knocked out without seeing the attacker.

As the principal said, he took out a bottle from his sleeve, waved his wand, and continued to transfer the black mist into the bottle.

Professor Dumbledore, what is this?

Dumbledore's eyes gleamed in the candlelight, and he said in a deep tone:

fear.

...

...

Filch, who was seriously injured, was sent to the school hospital... For the next few days, the students were discussing this matter.

The discussion lasted longer and farther than the last attack on the prize room.

The reason is very simple, nothing more than the fact that the students witnessed the tragedy Filch suffered, and the last time it happened in the middle of the night, no one saw it with their own eyes.

The bloodstains on Filch's body and the black smoke that kept coming out made him look horrifying, as if he had been attacked by black magic... That tragic scene was almost branded in the hearts of every student.

Everyone is guessing who did it.

The most suspected ones were, of course, Harry and Ron. The two did not attend the dinner party, and they appeared at the scene of the crime for the first time. It was only natural that they were suspected.

As for what Dumbledore said was not something a second-year wizard could do...Harry even defeated the Dark Lord, that's not something a little wizard could do either!

As for the motive... It's simpler, but most of the students hate Filch, and Snape clearly named them. Filch just punished Harry, so there is some grudge in his heart!

As for the women's room, it's just an excuse...or maybe, Filch broke the scandal of two people entering the women's room, and it was a bad thing.

This kind of speech is still very marketable and has been recognized by many people.

Filch's attack provided a lot of talking points for everyone, and of course it also brought a lot of disadvantages. The most direct one is...the homework has suddenly doubled!

In order to prevent the little wizards from running around with nothing to do, the professors assigned a lot of homework, and everyone had to huddle in the library every day.

Rove also goes in and out of the library every day, looking for information about the Smith family. At this time, he just picked up a book when he heard the girl beside him sigh.

Hermione, what's wrong with you?

Hogwarts: A School History has been borrowed. Hermione sighed:

Students who have registered to borrow are already scheduled for 2022 AD. Unfortunately, my book is at home, and I want to read the record about the secret room on it again.

Didn't I tell you? Rove glanced at the girl and said softly, The chamber of secrets was destroyed by the Fierce Fire Curse last semester, and the basilisk inside was taken away by me long ago.

But why did that person write on the wall that the Chamber of Secrets is open? Hermione wondered.

This is conveying a cryptic meaning. Rove explained: Someone wants to clear the school of Muggle-born wizards.

Then why did you choose Filch? Shirley asked beside him, Is he also Muggle-born?

He's not Muggle-born, but he's a squib. Rove lowered his voice.

Filch is a Squib? Hermione looked surprised.

Yes, did you see him use magic while cleaning?

I always thought he was expelled from school like Hagrid, and then his wand was broken by the Ministry of Magic. Hermione frowned.

Of course, there may be another reason for attacking Filch. Rove thought for a while and speculated:

He patrolled outside every day, looking for the mysterious creature, and he was outside the Halloween dinner... the attackers probably thought he was in the way.

Since it's clearing, why not kill him? Hermione asked sharply.

This is the crux of the problem. Rove also had confusion in his eyes.

There were no dead people in the original time and space, it was because the eyes of the victim did not directly touch the eyes of the basilisk...

It was luck, not that Tom didn't want to kill.

But now that there is no basilisk, that kind of luck can no longer be replicated. Why did Tom just attack Filch and leave him alive in the end?

kindness?

Tom in the diary, although he is a sixteen-year-old soul fragment, has already been made into a Horcrux, and he has obviously killed someone... How could he have such an idea.

Unless Tom Riddle finds out that the Chamber of Secrets is destroyed and the basilisk is gone...why else!
