Prisoner at Hogwarts

How did they find Parseltongue?

This is also due to Peeves' pranks. In essence, he is a wraith, so he likes to play pranks to vent his emotions.

Most of the time, he just threw bits of chalk at the little wizards, or pinched their noses to tease them when they weren't prepared.

But occasionally there will be a big one: for example, huge wolf spiders will be thrown at the little wizards to scare them. Because of the task of finding Parselmouth, in addition to wolf spiders, Peeves will occasionally throw a few wolf spiders at suspicious targets. A snake.

Because he had never hurt anyone, it was just a prank, so the previous headmasters of Hogwarts always left Peeves alone.

As the principals, they know that the evils of Hogwarts really need to be absorbed by a vengeful spirit like Peeves. Otherwise, these little wizards will live in a resentful school for a long time, and their whole people will become dark.

Because it happens so often, no one has ever thought of Peeves throwing snakes out to scare people in search of Parseltongue.

Even Peeves likes this method of pranking, and will play it even if there is no suspect.

When Peeves threw the snake at Tom Riddle's feet, Tom Riddle neither showed any panic nor took out his wand to attack. Instead, he spoke to the snake.

"Hiss, Shahara, hiss, hiss..." Tom Riddle speaks snake language as soon as he opens his mouth. He can not only communicate with snakes, but also order them to retreat.

"Found it! Found it! The Parseltongue was found by me, Peeves." Peeves excitedly told Nick about this, and Nick then rode to the secret room to tell Zhang Laomo the good news.

Zhang Laomo's order was to bring Tom Riddle to see the secret room, but how to bring him there was a problem for them.

Tom Riddle is an outstanding student of Slytherin, with both wisdom and strength. And because he grew up in an orphanage, he does not trust people so easily.

Especially what Peeves said, Tom Riddle didn't believe a word of it, and completely thought it was Peeves playing a prank.

After a person's credibility is ruined, it will be difficult for anyone to trust him anymore, and he will live extremely lonely.

"Trash, a bunch of trash." Zhang Laomo was so angry that he activated the restrictions on Nick and Peeves.

Ahhhhh!

Peeves and Nick screamed again and again. They felt boundless pain, as if something was eating their flesh and blood, eating continuously without interruption.

"Master, have mercy on me, Master, have mercy on me." Nick and Peeves begged in pain while trembling.

Fortunately, it was winter now and the basilisk was hibernating. Otherwise, their screams would have had their souls frozen by the basilisk, and they would have been locked up in a secret room with Zhang Laomo in a dark room.

"Great Master, leave this matter to me." Helena volunteered.

"Oh, what are you going to do?" Zhang Laomo asked.

"Everyone has their weaknesses. Tom Riddle's good-looking skin hides huge ambitions." Helena actually had another sentence that she had not said. Seeing him, Tom Riddle, she seemed to have seen the past. of myself.

Full of wisdom and ambition, she wants to become the second Ravenclaw, no, to become a more powerful existence than Ravenclaw.

She had a dream that when introduced by others, she would say "this is Helena's mother" instead of "this is the daughter of the Head of Ravenclaw".

It's just that her ambition doesn't have the power to match it.

Tom undoubtedly fell into this predicament and did not have the strength to match his ambition.

Once you know people's weaknesses, you can target them and seduce them.Although Tom is an outstanding student at Hogwarts, students are still students after all, and almost all students cannot defeat their professors when they are students.

Because they have only one way to gain strength, they can only learn magic spells from professors.

That day Helena pretended to quarrel with Nick and deliberately let Tom hear it. After Helena left angrily, Nick yelled at her back and said, "What's so great about a Ravenclaw daughter? He’s been dead for thousands of years!”

The daughter of Ravenclaw.

Tom's ears twitched when he heard these words.

There have been many powerful beings in the magical world, and the four founders of Hogwarts are all among them, and before they were powerful, they were even dubbed 'great'.

It is because they founded the magic school that magic has become as powerful as it is today. All magicians can be regarded as their disciples.

As a student at Hogwarts, Tom's ears were filled with the names of the four founders.After all, the name of the college is Ravenclaw, so it’s hard to remember.

Did the great and powerful Ravenclaw leave anything behind, or teach his biological daughter a powerful and unknown curse?

The answer is yes.

So Tom follows Helena.Helena pretended not to notice. She came to the deserted rooftop and looked at the sky alone in the cold wind, noble and indifferent.

"Ms. Helena, is there anything I can do for you?" Tom saluted to Helena respectfully.

"You have the wrong person, I am Gray." Helena dismissed Tom.

"Sorry ma'am, I overheard your argument with Nick." Tom bowed and apologized.

Judging from his current behavior, Tom is so polite and a gentleman in the real sense.

"Yes, I am the daughter of Ravenclaw. What are you going to do after knowing this secret, little one?" Helena looked at Tom playfully.

"No, no, no, you may have some misunderstandings about me. I will not harm the ghosts of Hogwarts, especially since you are the daughter of the great Ravenclaw Headmaster. I have only respect for you. Yes, only respect."

While talking, Tom saluted Helena again to show his respect for Helena.

"Don't think that I don't know what your intentions are. You just want to get the things my mother left behind. I can't give them to you. You should give up." After saying this, Helena went directly to the rooftop. He jumped up and down and floated away into the distance.

"What's left behind by Ravenclaw!" Tom's mouth watered when he heard this. What would the great and powerful Ravenclaw leave behind?

There is no doubt that it must be a powerful thing, and as long as you possess it, you will gain the power to sweep the magical world.Tom thought so firmly.

In fact, it was just a trap set by Helena for Tom.What's going on here is not trading. Just throw out some specious things and let them figure it out on their own.

Since then, Tom came to greet Helena almost every day, but Helena never gave him a good look.

But Tom never tired of it, because he found that the distance between him and Helena was getting closer and closer.

It means literally.At first, Helen floated away within 50 meters of her, but now she can get as close as 20 meters.

"Come on, you will soon gain Helena's trust." Tom firmly believed this and felt that he would continue to work hard.

But the dedication and persistence finally paid off, and the aloof Helena finally took the initiative and said, "Let me tell you a story."

Tom's ears immediately perked up.

Come, come, the secret of Ravenclaw is finally here.
