Harry Potter: The Party of the Orient at Hogwarts

After bidding farewell to Draco, Jiang Li returned to Hufflepuff's dormitory, she was going to take Tom's diary to find Dumbledore, at least Dumbledore should have a way to deal with him.

She went back to the dorm and searched through her space, but couldn't find Tom's diary.

"Hannah, Susan, Eleanor, have you seen the diary I put on the bedside table? That old one!" Jiang Li asked the girls in the dormitory while searching.

The girls thought about it carefully, then looked at each other and shook their heads at her.

Jiang Li searched for a long time but couldn't find the diary again. She guessed that it was her last act of waking up and attacking the basilisk, which aroused Tom's suspicion, so he must have tricked someone to take the diary away. .

In desperation, Jiang Li could only go to Dumbledore first, and Dumbledore is the most reliable at present.

When she came to the office, Dumbledore had already returned, and he was alone in the office, and he was teasing Fawkes on the birdcage.

"Albus, listen to me, Mrs. Norris' matter is definitely not about Harry..." Jiang Li loudly explained today's matter to him as he walked towards him.

Picking up a box of lemon drops from the table, Dumbledore interrupted: "I know it's not Harry, it's you, right?"

Jiang Li was stunned by his words, stayed where he was, and nodded dully: "You know? But, why?"

Dumbledore looked at Jiang Li who was in a daze, and handed her the candy box: "Choose one, he has to sharpen his mind, and he will face more doubts and tribulations in the future, you can't help him too much , You don’t have time to react to many things yourself, and you are just a child.”

Jiang Li thought about Arianna again, maybe Dumbledore was right, she didn't have time to save Ariana at that time, if Ariana knew magic at that time, would she be able to avoid that fatal blow? hit.

"Maybe you're right, but isn't it too harsh for a child? By the way, I accidentally got a diary before. The 17-year-old Voldemort's consciousness was in that book, and he controlled me! "Jiang Li took the candy box from Dumbledore's hand and said to him a little excitedly.

"I know, he can't completely control you, you want to know his plan, don't you?" Dumbledore's expression became serious, "But, Li, because you want to know his mind, you let him control you." When you do these things, what would happen if Mrs. Norris appeared first but Filch or other students in the castle?"

Jiang Li was taken aback by his question, and tried to defend himself: "No, if it was a human, I would definitely be able to stop that monster, and as long as I don't meet its eyes, it's fine. Well, it’s just petrification, and the potion that Professor Snape made with the mandrake is enough..."

The more she spoke, the more she spoke, the more guilty she became. In fact, she also knew that it was too late. She only discovered the ability of snake-eye petrification after Mrs. Norris was petrified. Its sharp fangs go to hurt the people in the castle.

"I'm sorry, Albus, I was careless. I shouldn't have obeyed Tom to open the door of the secret room just to satisfy my curiosity." Jiang Li lowered her head and apologized to Dumbledore. She knew that she made a mistake this time. .

Dumbledore shook his head slowly, and put his arms around her shoulders: "Perhaps other people will have more terrible results if Tom manipulates others. If he is not manipulating you this time, Filch may also be tricked, but because it is You, you have the ability to stop this from happening, but you didn't stop it, it's your fault, Li, do you understand?"

Jiang Li looked up at his somewhat serious but still gentle expression, recalling that summer he argued with Grindelwald, for the benefit of ordinary people and for the greater good, he and his lover had time and time again dispute.

"I see, Albus, what do I need to do next? Tom's diary is gone, and I'm worried that he will go to confuse others." Jiang Li put Dumbledore's candy box into the pocket of his wizard robe Here, I have to say that this candy is delicious.

"What you have to do now is go back to Hufflepuff's dormitory and go to sleep." Dumbledore took her by the shoulders and led her to the door of the office, taking out the candy box from her pocket while she was not paying attention , "Give me back my lemon candy by the way."

Jiang Li was speechless, what kind of weird cheapskate is this, just a box of candies.

Look at the old bee's strategizing, as if everything is under his control, then she needs to worry about it, let alone old Tom's diary.

"Hey, Li, here!"

When Jiang Li was walking down the stairs, she heard Hermione's voice calling her in a low voice. She turned her head and looked in the direction of the voice, and saw Hermione sticking her head out from a corner, waving to her.

She hurriedly ran towards Hermione, and when she got to Hermione, she found that the two unlucky guys were also there, and Harry and Ron were standing behind Hermione.

Seeing her coming, Harry hurriedly took a step forward, and anxiously explained to her: "Li, it's not me, I didn't do what Mrs. Norris did! It was already like this when I got there."

Harry's face was a little flushed from anxiety, and his beautiful green eyes kept staring at Jiang Li.

"Harry, calm down, I know it's not you, even Draco thinks it's not you, how could I think it's you!" Jiang Li tried to calm his excitement.

Hermione frowned and continued to tell Jiang Li: "At that time, Harry was helping Lockhart finish writing the signature. When he came back, he said he heard a strange voice, and he kept saying die, kill. Harry followed the voice and walked to the It's in the corridor, but Ron and I didn't hear anything."

After listening to Hermione's description, Jiang Li probably understood the reason. What Harry heard should be the sound of the basilisk. He could understand the sound of snakes, while Ron and Hermione didn't know Parseltongue naturally. is inaudible.

"Wait, Malfoy said he didn't think it was Harry? Merlin's socks, he would actually speak for Harry!" Ron looked incredible, then he remembered something, and looked at Hermione seriously and worriedly, " Enemies of the Successor are written on the wall, and what Crabbe said, will Hermione be in danger?"

"With Dumbledore here, nothing will happen, but it's so late, we should go back to the dormitory earlier, it will be safer." Jiang Li glanced at Ron with relief, he finally learned to care about girls, and It's not just about Harry's affairs every day.

After separating from the trio, Jiang Li walked towards her dormitory, she felt as if she had forgotten something, what was it related to Dumbledore?

Forget it, I can't remember, let's go back to sleep first.
