New Professor at Hogwarts

"I hope... Tom... I hope so much..." A look of regret and sentimentality flashed across Dumbledore's old face.

Harry felt that this was the Dumbledore he had never seen before, so he glared at Riddle a second later.

"Stop acting like a hypocrite," Riddle said disgustedly.

"Okay, Tom," Dumbledore said, "I want to know how you manipulated Ginny Weasley to help you open the Chamber of Secrets, release the basilisk, and come to this secret chamber that may be under the lake? "

Xia Ran almost knew this, but he would not speak without authorization because he could not explain the source of his knowledge of these things and related information. The Horcrux could also claim that he had seen some relevant records in an ancient book, so he was not interested in it. This is somewhat understood, after all, this is how Voldemort learned about Horcruxes when he was young.

"Oh, this is really an interesting topic," Riddle said happily. "It's a long story, but my opinion is...The reason why little Ginny became what she is now is mainly because she believed in a man who watched I opened my heart to this friend whom I had lost, and talked about any of my troubles and problems.”

"Yes, I will always be such a considerate and good friend. Otherwise, how could I have so many friends following me?" Riddle looked at Dumbledore and said, "You think so? Dumbledore. "

Harry still looked confused, but Xia Ran and Dumbledore understood each other 100%.

"Tom, I'm so glad you call the Death Eaters your friends and not your servants!" said Dumbledore.

"Servant?" Riddle smiled sarcastically and did not continue the topic. He turned to Ginny and said, "For several months, little Ginny has been writing her inner thoughts in my diary and telling me. Her heart-wrenching troubles, troubles and sorrows."

"How she was teased by her brothers, and how she had to wear a shabby robe and a bag of second-hand books to go to Hogwarts. This was the Hogwarts she dreamed of, but she ended up in this state. Came here.”

"besides……"

Looking at Harry, Riddle's eyes flashed with a cunning light, and said: "She thinks that the famous, kind, and great--oh, and the Dark Lord's old enemy--Harry Potter, will never be the same." I won’t fall in love with a little girl like her!”

Although no one except Riddle - Xia Ran and Dumbledore's eyes were mainly focused on Riddle - were paying attention to Harry, Harry felt that he could not help but blush.

When Riddle spoke, his eyes never left Harry's face. There was an almost greedy look hidden deep in his eyes, which made Harry feel very uncomfortable.

Dumbledore also showed a sense of disgust.

Xia Ran understood why Voldemort showed such emotion. In his opinion, the famous and powerful Voldemort killed countless once powerful wizards, including Harry's parents, why did he end up in a place where he could not walk freely? The baby—the baby Harry Potter—had a stumble? He desperately wanted to find the final answer and secret.

"To be honest, it's too boring, listening to an eleven-year-old girl talk about her childish worries." Riddle ignored the expressions of the three people and continued, "But I am kind and considerate - Finally, I got a wizard to write in the diary. I really couldn't wait, and this was just an eleven-year-old little witch. I patiently wrote a lot of words to comfort little Ginny. In the end, little Ginny simply couldn't wait. Almost falling in love with me, ahhh, like with Harry Potter.”

He always "cared" about Harry.

"Oh, Tom, no one has ever understood me like you do, never! I'm so glad I got you - and, to be honest, I'm glad too - to tell you all my troubles..."

"There are many more. To be honest, I have always been a person who can be recognized and trusted by others." Riddle said with pride.

Dumbledore stared at Riddle and said, "Just like the professors loved you when you were studying at Hogwarts."

Xia Ran knew that Dumbledore was talking about when Voldemort was studying at Hogwarts. Professors from all subjects, including the principal, were extremely fond of this little wizard who came from a Muggle orphanage but was studious, inquisitive, handsome and polite.

It has to be said that if Voldemort wanted to, he could disguise himself very well and deceive the trust of most people in the world.

It's a pity that he later abandoned this point. Perhaps Voldemort believed that his magic power was unfathomable. No one in the world was worthy of his attention except Dumbledore, and Dumbledore never believed it. That person of his, so he was too lazy to hide himself anymore.

If Voldemort had still disguised himself, could the White Wizards have lasted that long in the First Wizarding War? This may indeed be a problem. Maybe they can't wait until Professor Sybill Trelawney makes the famous prediction. The White Wizards will be completely defeated, even if they have Dumbledore, they will be outnumbered!

It can only be said that Voldemort's pride led to his final failure, even after he was resurrected in the original time and space. Otherwise, Harry Potter should be dealt with as quickly as possible - he can just don't do it himself, since his subordinates eat death anyway. If there are enough disciples and they are strong enough - when Dumbledore dies of old age, there is no need for a head-on confrontation, he just needs to wait patiently for a period of time, and the entire magical world will be in his hands, and the remaining resistance will be almost insignificant.

Xia Ranxin said that Voldemort made Horcruxes and turned his soul into a ball of paste. He sometimes lost his mind. Countless opportunities to win were placed in front of him, but he used his excellent body skills to dodge them one by one. When I opened it, I was really speechless.

Of course, this kind of fighting against fate can only happen to Harry Potter. Others - except Dumbledore - can never hope to stop Voldemort.

"Except you, Dumbledore!"

Riddle looked at Dumbledore with wide eyes, resentment and murderous intent flashed, and he said coldly: "Since the orphanage, you have never believed in me! Not even once!"

"Yes, I should have tried to believe you." Dumbledore said extremely calmly, "But Tom, have you ever thought about whether you have done anything worthy of my trust?"

"No?"

Riddle laughed sarcastically and said, "I was the best student at Hogwarts at that time, prefect, and president of the student union. I was number one in every subject, and I was excellent in everything. Am I not worthy of your trust?"

"Ah, yes, Dumbledore, hypocritical Dumbledore! Later I saw through you, and you felt that I threatened your status. If I continue to grow like this, maybe your title as the most powerful wizard of our time will be lost. I gave it up to someone else, so I understand you, because no wizard is willing to let go of such a powerful title!"
