time at hogwarts

181. Slytherin’s Patron Saint

Late at night, Magos lay in bed and couldn't sleep. In addition to being curious about the diary, he also felt a vague call in his heart.

Without sleepiness, he simply got up and looked at the location of the notebook. His initial thought was to throw it directly to Dumbledore, but now he thought about it calmly and found that things seemed not as simple as he thought.

One, what if the diary pretended to be dead and Dumbledore couldn't discover that it was Voldemort's Horcrux.

The most important thing is that he knew that Dumbledore must not know about the Horcrux, at least not until Harry knew about it.You know, he has been to the forbidden areas of the library more than once, but he has never encountered a book about Horcruxes there. He thinks that either there are not there, or they are well hidden. Let him discover that after all, he can't guarantee that there won't be a second Voldemort.So using this reason to attract Dumbledore's attention is absolutely unacceptable.

Second, if he pretended to communicate with the diary and then told him the location and information of the secret room, even if Dumbledore believed him, found the secret room, and rescued Kang, in the end as long as he still couldn't discover the secret of the diary, he would still feel bad for him. Create doubt.

Thirdly, what if the diary thing was flipped over? Although he felt that it was unlikely that Dumbledore would be fooled with his IQ, he would be at a disadvantage if a thorn was planted in his heart.

"P." McGoss couldn't help but cursed. He was such a cheater. He was worried when he couldn't find the diary. But he was even more worried when he found the diary. What's this?Do we have to go through the plot of exploring the secret room?What a joke.

If it really doesn't work, I would rather risk being suspected by Dumbledore and report this thing and explore the secret room?There are no doors!

And he still had a suspicion. In the original plot, when Harry was in danger, Felix just happened to bring the Sorting Hat to him?Let him make a comeback against the wind with the Sword of Gryffindor?I'm afraid Dumbledore has known about the basilisk for a long time. After all, the behavior of the basilisk in it is undisguised. Instead of believing that Hogwarts was saved by the Salvation Trio with their courage and wisdom, it is better to believe that it was Dumbledore deliberately let them practice.

After thinking about it, he felt that it was necessary to communicate with the diary in advance. No matter from his memory or Lockhart's actions, the diary did not have the ability to control people instantly, so safety was still guaranteed.

After making up my mind, I first used Occlumency on myself, and then used armor to protect my body. I had full magic and mental resistance. I took the wand, thought about it, and took out the spare wand pressed at the bottom of the box and inserted it into my waist. , well, now it’s complete.

Quietly walking out of the dormitory, he slowly opened his diary in a corner of the common room.

Then he stared at the blank page without blinking for a quarter of an hour before rubbing his sore eyes.

What are you doing?Did I guess wrong and this is really just an ordinary diary?Immediately he shook his head, hehe, I dare to use Harry's invisibility cloak as a guarantee. This must be the Horcrux diary, otherwise I would be sorry for the name Tom Riddle.

"Appear quickly!" Magos raised his wand and used a revealing spell on the diary, but the diary was still clean.

How on earth do you communicate with it?Magos was embarrassed to find that he had no memory of how this thing was triggered.

After a moment of silence, he went back to the dormitory to get the invisible eraser, but it was useless. He put it in water, but it was useless. He heated it over a fire, but it was still useless.

He got a little crazy and picked up the quill and wrote, "What kind of stupid thing is this!"

Then he watched in surprise as the line of words flickered and slowly faded, as if it had been absorbed by the paper.

"I'm not trash, I'm Tom Riddle." Then this line appeared.

Magos was startled and immediately realized that he had found a way to communicate with the diary.He thought for a while and wrote the next sentence.

"Can books also have names? Are you a magic tool?"

"No, the name belongs to my master. I am just the master's diary, which records some unknown secrets."

Magos curled his lips at this crude temptation, "Can you teach me how your master made you? I also want to have a diary like yours."

Riddle obviously didn't expect that Magos didn't follow the routine. Isn't it normal to ask about unknown secrets?Why did you ask about his production method?It paused for a few seconds before revealing its next words.

"This is a very complicated procedure. I'm glad you are interested. It's just that I haven't communicated with the wizard for a long time. Before I teach you, are you willing to listen to my story? I promise you won't feel it. boring."

Magos had a strong urge to write down that he was unwilling to do so. He wanted to know what Riddle would do, but he thought it would be troublesome if he stopped showing up in a fit of anger after chatting to death.

"I'm willing to listen." He looked at what he had written with some discomfort.

"Thank you. You won't be disappointed. I will tell you secrets that some people don't want others to know."

"Do you know Hogwarts?"

"I know, I'm going to school here now." Magos yawned.

"Oh? Have you ever heard of Slytherin's Patronus?"

What the hell?Magos looked at this line of words a little confused. What the hell is Slytherin's patron saint? Does it refer to the basilisk?Also, shouldn't he be talking about Hagrid killing Moaning Myrtle?

Shaking his head to dispel the drowsiness that had just appeared, he wrote down the words "never heard of" with some seriousness.

"Legend has it that Salazar Slytherin, the founder of Slytherin, arranged a mysterious place in his later years before leaving Hogwarts. He left a sleeping magical animal in it. As long as he could wake it up, he would When Hogwarts is in crisis, come and save Hogwarts."

"What magical animal is it? A dragon?"

"I don't know. My master has never seen it. When he discovered the secret, he was noticed by those people and had to write the mysterious place in his diary. And he had no chance to find it until he left Hogwarts. .”

"Why are those people looking for that mysterious place?" Magos was curious about how Riddle could make up this lie.

"Because they are afraid." The diary appeared almost as soon as Magos's words disappeared.

"Afraid? What are you afraid of? Are those people trying to harm the school?"

"You could say that, but the main thing is that they want to find the magical creature that Salazar left behind, kill it, or control him."

"Who are those people you are talking about? The school is very peaceful now. The principal is still Principal Dumbledore, the number one wizard in the wizarding world. Your master couldn't have written it randomly, right?"

"What if I said Dumbledore was one of those people."
