A day at Hogwarts.

Since the last time she eavesdropped on the conversation between Albert and Harry outside the boys' dormitory, Ginny has been worried and restless.

From the conversation between Albert and Harry, it was not hard for Ginny to hear that Albert had been secretly investigating the attack, and had already figured out what the monster in the castle secret room was.

Basilisk?

Although Ginny didn't know what the basilisk was, it was not difficult to conclude from Albert's description that the basilisk was some kind of very terrifying dark creature.

If you meet the eyes of the basilisk, you will probably be petrified. Several petrified students in the school were attacked by the basilisk.

As for opening the secret room, who is the murderer who caused the attack?

Albert didn't say anything.

Ginny knew that Albert was doubting herself.

But, is he really the one who opened the secret room?

Ginny didn't know either.

However, she was also doubting herself, especially when she found that she seemed to have lost part of her memory. When Hermione was attacked, Ginny couldn't even remember where she was.

What should I do if I really opened the secret room by myself?

Ginny was worried all the time that Albert would denounce herself to the professor.

Will Professor McGonagall believe Albert's words?

Ginny didn't know, and didn't want to know.

Albert is too famous in the school, not to mention, he has very likely found the entrance to the secret room. Proving it with facts is more convincing than talking empty words.

Why did things become like this?

I just went to Hogwarts to study.

Why is it like this!

How would Harry feel about himself if he knew she was the one who opened the Chamber of Secrets?

What will mom and dad say?

Will Headmaster Dumbledore throw himself out of the school?

In the end, I could only watch everyone graduate from school, but I couldn't become a wizard.

The worst thing is that he may be arrested by the Ministry of Magic for this, and put in the terrible Azkaban prison like Hagrid.

Ginny still remembers the change in her father's face when he talked about Azkaban.

All this was driving the poor girl crazy, and the fear was slowly gnawing at Ginny's heart.

Prompted by loneliness, anxiety and fear, Ginny took out Tom Riddle's diary stolen from Harry from the bottom of the bedside table, and couldn't wait to confide her inner anxiety and fear to Tom.

Unfortunately, Ginny Weasley did it right in the arms of Tom Riddle.

When Ginny Weasley confides his truth to the diary, Tom Riddle hidden in the diary is also slowly devouring the most secret fears and deepest secrets in Ginny's heart to gradually grow himself.

Tom Riddle is gradually becoming stronger, but Ginny Weasley, who is the holder of the diary, knows nothing about it.

In the conversation with Ginny, Tom Riddle also got a lot of useful information. A Muggle wizard with different talents aroused Tom Riddle's interest.

Albert Anderson.

The smartest student Hogwarts has ever seen?

Tom scoffed at that, remembering being called the brightest student Hogwarts had ever seen.

Albert Anderson.

Just a Muggle wizard.

Although Tom didn't want to admit it, Albert still had something.

The Muggle wizard actually figured out that the monster in the Chamber of Secrets was the Basilisk, and even directly believed that Ginny Weasley was the real culprit who opened the Chamber of Secrets.

Not a doubt, but an affirmation.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have used magic to shield Ginny and the others from hearing Harry Potter when he was talking about key points.

This incident is the best proof!

Tom Riddle saw through it with a single glance.

Did Ginny Weasley reveal too much herself, or was it discovered by the Muggle wizard for some other reason?

"So that's how stupid it is!"

Tom Riddle thought for a moment, and soon realized why the Muggle wizard did this.

That Muggle wizard actually planned to use himself as a bait to lure himself into the bait?

Therefore, it was so obvious at the time.

Otherwise, after knowing that someone is eavesdropping, they will definitely use magic to block the conversation between the two without leaving any chance for others to eavesdrop.

Hmph, another smart guy!

When Tom Riddle got this answer, he found it extremely ridiculous.

How dare a mere Muggle wizard challenge the famous Voldemort?

Probably only a reckless Gryffindor would dare to do such a stupid thing.

Sure enough, Gryffindor is Gryffindor.

What a disappointment for him.

If so, go to hell!

Facing Albert's provocation, Tom Riddle planned to find a chance to kill him, lest he reveal Ginny's affairs.

As for Gilderoy Lockhart, who played tricks on himself.

Tom Riddle didn't plan to keep Lockhart anymore, especially knowing that Harry Potter had learned a lot about the Chamber of Secrets from the Muggle wizard, so he didn't plan to keep Lockhart.

Of course, Tom didn't intend to let Lockhart die easily, he would give that guy the cruelest punishment to make him understand how stupid it is to offend Voldemort.

As for the famous Harry Potter, with his meddling personality and the information provided by Muggle wizards, he will definitely be able to find the location of the secret room, and there will be enough time to figure out how the savior defeated him. Voldemort's.

Still, Brainless Tom missed something.

To be crowned the smartest student Hogwarts has ever seen, is it just a Muggle wizard who is a little clever?

Tom Riddle didn't take Albert seriously at all, but he ignored one point. Albert didn't need to defeat the basilisk, as long as he escaped the attack of the basilisk and survived, he would be considered a complete victory.

Knowing that the monster in the secret room is a basilisk, dodging the attack is not as difficult as imagined, especially if you have a lot of preparations.

What's more, Tom Riddle had no idea how long Albert had been preparing for that moment.

Yes, this is a trap, a trap specially prepared for the heirs of Slytherin, anyone with a little brain can see it.

The real trap is not the trap itself, but Tom Riddle's cognitive bias towards Albert...a seriously underestimated opponent.

Albert has already made preparations and intends to completely resolve the Chamber of Secrets incident during Easter.

For this reason, Albert even chose the corridor and planned the escape route.

Anyway, the basilisk doesn't need him to deal with it, as long as the matter is exposed, the panel task is completed.

Whether Tom's final opponent will be his deadly enemy Harry Potter or Professor Dumbledore is none of Albert's business.

Anyway, it's better that the person who only deals with the basilisk is not Albert himself.
