Tom was immersed in the fact that Salazar Slytherin and Godric Gryffindor had a special relationship all day long, until a student came over to inform him that Professor Brown asked him to go to the office.

This is rare. Although most people and professors basically know it, even some students may have discovered that Tom Riddle is a special student whose guardian is the new Professor Brown at Hogwarts. , but since Salazar came to Hogwarts, he has never shown any specialness towards Tom.

Even if you go to class early, wouldn't there be two other people accompanying you?

Privately, Salazar never asked Tom to meet him in his office. Even many times, when the two men met at Hogwarts, Salazar would ignore Tom and walk away.

This seemed to be a very cold attitude, and the students were confused about the relationship between the two people.

Mainly because the other professors at Hogwarts have similar attitudes towards Tom as Salazar. When every professor meets Tom, they will not take the initiative to say hello, or even deliberately avoid him.

This confirms the fact that Tom Riddle is hated by all the professors at Hogwarts, except Professor Lockhart. I wonder if it is because Tom helped Professor Lockhart write a reply to the reader for a long time. Lockhart Hart was still very enthusiastic when he saw Tom.

It's just that Tom is cold to Lockhart.

When Tom came to the door of Salazar's office with an anxious mood, he saw two little snakes watching the excitement active at the door.

Tom asked tentatively: "Can I know why the lord called me here?"

Could it be that the true body has been successfully resurrected, and Salazar Slytherin wants to explain something to himself?

The little snake said with a tone of watching a good show: "I only know that Lord Angus has come to see you!"

Angus…

Tom had a bad premonition, but he had already arrived at Salazar's door. At this time, Salazar must have known that he was at the door of his office. If he ran away...

Tom knocked nervously.

"come in."

This tone of voice doesn’t sound like it’s a big deal, right?

Tom opened the door and walked into the room.

"Professor, what do you want from me?"

Tom saw Salazar standing at the window. He crossed his arms and stared directly at himself as he entered the room. The uneasy feeling spread quickly.

"Close the door."

Tom closed the door obediently, alarm bells ringing in his heart.

"Angus told me, you don't seem to think highly of me and Godric, right?"

Tom was stunned for a moment, then quickly recovered.

"Huh?! What did Angus say?!"

"He said that you said a lot of things that you didn't think highly of Godric and I, and it seemed that you expected Godric and me to become enemies." Salazar put down his arms with a hint of seriousness in his eyes. "Why? I want to know, why don't you expect my relationship with Godric to be a good one?"

Tom was speechless: "..."

"I think it's because Gryffindor and Slytherin have been at odds since ancient times, right?" Salazar frowned slightly. "So, I first went to Barrow, and he told me that not long after Hogwarts was established, Gryffindor students and Slytherin students faced each other, and we didn't like each other. As for the reason, He couldn't explain clearly. It was just a small conflict at the beginning, but later the Gryffindor students became unrelenting and turned the conflict into a big one."

Tom stood obediently at the door, not daring to take a step closer to Salazar.

"Although it sounds like he means that Gryffindor students can't stand the style of Slytherin students, but I know Godric. Although he seems to have a good temper, in fact, he cares about human nature. , the students he recruits will not be narrow-minded."

Tom said tremblingly: "Sir, you mean that Slytherin students may be cautious, right?"

Sara looked over, smiling slightly.

"I don't know what your current Slytherin students are like, but I want students who at least won't wink or look at each other. If I don't want to have conflicts with Godric because of them, I will definitely tell Don't let them cause any trouble for me."

Tom carefully observed Salazar's expression.

"So, if Slytherin students don't deal with Gryffindor students from the beginning, then I must have condoned this behavior."

"Sir..." Tom felt that his brain was not that good.

"I've thought about it for a long time, why would I allow Slytherin students to be incompatible with Gryffindor students?"

Seeing the look Salazar gave him, Tom swallowed uncontrollably.

"I don't know either... After all, that happened a long time ago. Do you need me to speculate?"

"No need. If I want to know, it won't be a problem to ask Barrow and Helena."

So, what was Salazar Slytherin doing by calling him here? ! ! !

"Originally, because of such historical reasons, I should understand that you hate Gryffindor, but, Tom, I still don't like your attitude of not being optimistic about the relationship between me and Godric."

Tom immediately stood up straight and said loudly: "Sir, I think my words have been misunderstood by classmate Angus! I have never been unfavorable about the relationship between you and Lord Gryffindor! I think you and that Your love is profound! It will last forever, be sweet and beautiful!"

Tom suppressed his instinctive dislike of Gryffindor. He felt that after he said these words, a sick feeling rushed directly to his head. But Salazar Slytherin had said so, and he didn't dare to continue to offend him.

Salazar just smiled and stared at Tom.

"Can you say something so against your will?"

"My lord, this is not against my will at all. I sincerely wish you and Mr. Gryffindor all the best!"

No matter how stupid and restless Tom was, he would not dare to directly anger Salazar Slytherin and seek death for himself.

"That's great."

Salazar nodded with satisfaction, then waved to Tom.

"It's okay, you can leave."

Tom was still a little in disbelief. He couldn't help but show a stunned expression and stared at Salazar closely. When he saw that Salazar's expression really softened, he was sure that nothing would happen to him.

but……

Just because he said something that was not optimistic about the relationship between Salazar Slytherin and Godric Gryffindor, he called him over and changed his words threateningly. This is too unbelievable!

Tom walked out of Salazar's office in a daze, and returned to the Slytherin common room almost hand in hand.

As expected, he saw Angus, who had been guarding his return for a long time.

Angus looked Tom up and down, then looked very disappointed.

Tom couldn't help but sneer.

"Slytherin! You seem disappointed that I came back safe and sound!"

Angus nodded and answered honestly: "Yes, I thought you would come back with missing arms and legs."

"You actually snitched!!! You are shameless!!!"

Tom pointed at Angus and blushed angrily.

"Do you know that your behavior is very annoying! If there is a conflict between students, why not solve it on the student's side? You actually go to the professor!"

"Ah? This is a question... But Riddle-san, although it's okay for me to call you classmate, you are not a child, right? You are an adult, even if you are in the body of a child, when I am facing you, it is you. Is this adult bullying me, a real child?"

Angus spread his hands and continued: "Of course I have to tell my parents."

"You deserve to die!"

"If I die, you won't be able to live!"

The two people looked at each other without giving in at all, their eyes burning with fire.

Until Draco reluctantly came over.

"Brace said you are going to fight. Are you arguing?"

Angus then relaxed and replied: "No, the quarrel hasn't started yet."

Draco looked at Tom and then at Angus, confirming that although the atmosphere between the two was a bit subtle, he did not hear a heated argument when he came over, so he was sure that the atmosphere between the two was not very bad.

"Well, Blaise thinks it's best if you don't start a fight and let me come over to break up the fight, so I still ask, do you want to have a fight today, or escalate it into a fight?"

Tom snorted.

Angus thought for a moment and replied: "No."

"That's good. The prefect was very reluctant to come over to mediate the conflict between you, so he passed it on to Brace, and Brace passed it on to me. I'm also very reluctant to get involved. It's still possible for you to coexist peacefully. necessary."

Draco expressed his attitude and went back with his head held high.

Tom snorted loudly again.

Angus sighed.

"Well, since Father didn't touch you, it seems that I can't catch you, so I can only let you go."

"mean!"

When Angus heard what Tom said, he immediately smiled.

"Despicable Slytherin, this is quite a compliment for Slytherin!"

"shameless!"

Angus still smiled and said, "Continue."

"Shameless!"

"next."

"insidious!!!"

Angus looked at Tom's angry red eyes and smiled brightly.

"Thanks for the compliment~~"

Tom: "..." I hate myself for not using very vicious curse words!

"Slytherin's wizards are all shameless! This is what one of my uncles told me. As long as the goal is achieved, Slytherin will do whatever it takes."

"You didn't achieve your goal either!!!"

"Really?" Angus raised his eyebrows and looked at Tom's flushed face.

"I came out of Salazar intact!"

"Oh~~" Angus nodded, as if he recognized Tom's words.

"What do you mean?!" Tom looked at Angus fiercely.

"Because you didn't look too good when you came in, so I thought that although you didn't suffer any physical punishment... you at least went through a lot of mental torture, right?"

Tom felt a vague discomfort in his stomach as he thought about how he almost vomited everything he had eaten today at Salazar's place.

"I knew it! Then you can't say that my goal has not been achieved, right?"

Angus's proud look made Tom's eyes red.

"Are you interested?"

"No."

The unexpected answer made Tom feel so angry that he felt like he was being choked. Looking at Angus, he felt extremely aggrieved.

"Don't look at me like that, you targeted me first!"

Angus' voice became softer.

"As if I was wrong, okay, I did go a little too far, but you targeted me for no reason at the beginning, isn't it too much? You don't allow me to take revenge?"

"Did you suffer a loss in the first place? Did I let you blow it?!"

"You even harmed innocent people!" Angus's momentum quickly increased and he stared at Tom sternly.

"That red-haired Weasley?!"

Angus frowned, not liking the contempt for Weasley in Tom's tone, mainly because he thought of Weasley, whom Godric favored, and felt that it was appropriate for him to defend Weasley a few words.

"I think those Weasley brothers are cuter than you!"

"Those red-haired wild dogs!"

"If you do this, Tom Riddle, the war between us will continue!"

"Dumbledore's dog!"

Angus immediately stood up and met Tom's eyes.

They didn't give in to each other.

"You'd better not continue to say such things!" Angus said sternly.

Tom said disdainfully: "Really? Anyway, I am destined to die. I have only a few days to live. Why should I endure it? What about Dumbledore? He is an old man who will never die!"

When Tom was caught off guard, Angus quickly raised his arm and slapped Tom in the face.

The crisp sound made the surrounding atmosphere tense instantly.

Tom's head tilted to one side. He didn't expect Angus to actually take action.

Angus's expression also froze for a moment, and he lowered his arms a bit.

"That's great..." Tom turned his head back. "Do you want to continue the slap? Is this slap for Weasley or Dumbledore?"

Angus was silent.

"It's Weasley, then do you want to give me another slap for Dumbledore? After all... you are my ancestor, right? Angus Slytherin?"

Tom looked sarcastically at Angus' blushing cheeks. Was he regretting it? Unfortunately, it's too late.

"Go on! If I don't resist, how dare I resist? Right, Slytherin!"

Angus's hands hanging on both sides of his body were clenched into fists. He took a deep breath and knew that he could not continue to be angry.

"Tom...Riddle..." Angus took another deep breath. "In the future, don't mock those people in front of me. I don't care what hatred you have against them."

Tom sneered, his eyes filled with resentment.

"Don't say that you will die..." Angus's voice gradually trailed off. "I don't want you to die."
