[Comprehensive British and American] Painting ghosts

"Don't you know about this?" Old Deng was also a little surprised. "Then why did you go to the Gaunt's old house?"

It was a little strange to go on Christmas Eve.

Shen Yanzhou noticed Lao Deng's suspicion, he quickly found the location of the Tianyan pen, and asked, "Have you brought the resurrection stone?"

Tian Yanbi said: "Put it in your pocket, don't worry, Lao Deng didn't find it."

Only then did Shen Yanzhou breathe a sigh of relief, and began to think about how to make up his own lies.

"It's just weird, Albus." Shen Yanzhou quickly searched for information about the Gaunt family in his brain, and opened his eyes to speak nonsense without making a draft. "You also know that the Gaunt family is one of the few remaining aristocratic families with Slytherin blood. Although they have fallen, they still have the identity and family fortune of the nobles. But the last generation of their family's head was killed for murdering Muggles. Was imprisoned in Azkaban, and finally died of madness. Albus, don't you think this is unbelievable?"

Old Deng nodded approvingly: "It's true, I'm still wondering if it has anything to do with Tom."

Shen Yanzhou automatically filtered out the name he didn't want to hear: "That's why I took advantage of the school holiday and wanted to go to their house to find out."

"To be honest, I also think the Gaunt family is very weird," said Dumbledore. "So I went to their house once, but found nothing. Since Morfin Gunter was arrested, the house has been sealed, and no one has been there again."

"I still found something." Shen Yanzhou said. "I found a ring, but there was a curse on this ring, and I didn't notice it, so that's why it happened."

Old Deng sighed lightly: "You don't have to do this."

"Who would have thought of this in advance." Shen Yanzhou chuckled lightly, but his eyes revealed a trace of loss and mourning just right.

……

After chatting with Lao Deng for a while, Lao Deng left in a hurry.Shen Yanzhou guessed that something happened again, the doctor who came to maintain his physical condition told him that the Death Eaters had launched an attack again.

"What a bunch of terrible lunatics!" said the doctor indignantly. "There is no bottom line, killing innocent people indiscriminately!"

Shen Yanzhou nodded in agreement.Seeing that he was not in a high mood, the doctor probably knew what was going on, and said regretfully, "Don't worry, we will try our best to treat you."

"It's okay." Shen Yanzhou was dealing with the doctor while thinking about what to do next.

The resurrection stone has been obtained, and the next step is the invisibility cloak.

There is no doubt that the Elder Wand is in Lao Deng's hands, and Tianyan Pen has already confirmed this with the object-finding spell.At present, he can't think of any way to get the Elder Wand from Lao Deng's hand. He doesn't believe that Lao Deng doesn't know that the wand in his hand is one of the Deathly Hallows, and he will definitely not give the Elder Wand to him easily.

Now that he has become a patient again, what reason should he leave the hospital to find the invisibility cloak?

The doctor walked out of the room, and Shen Yanzhou and Tian Yanbi began to discuss this matter.

"I think it's better to leave the hospital first." Tian Yanbi said.

"That's for sure." Shen Yanzhou nodded. "It's just that this hand may be a little troublesome. I can't use you to cast spells."

Without the Tianyan pen, he can only cast some very simple spells.

"Well, at least it's not without gains." Shen Yanzhou comforted himself while touching the resurrection stone in his pocket.

……

The Gaunt house.

Voldemort pushed open the door, and with a wave of his wand, the dark room was suddenly lit up.

At a glance, he saw that the hidden space on the wall had been cracked. The ring of the Gunter family was lying in it, but it had been moved, as if it had been taken out and then put back.

But I didn't see the cracker's body, did he escape?

I have some skills.

He stepped forward, reached out and took out the ring, and put it in the palm of his hand.

This ring is indeed the ring of the Gunter family, but it was opened by someone.Voldemort himself tried to open the ring, but he couldn't find the right way to open the ring.He also considered making this ring into a horcrux, but later he gave up. Firstly, there was a better substitute, and secondly, because he was vaguely aware of the side effects of the horcrux, he decided not to make more horcruxes for the time being. device.

Although he is not interested in what is hidden in the ring of the Gaunt family, but what he can't get, no one else can get it.

So even if he didn't find a way to open the mechanism, he cast a very terrible black magic on the ring to prevent others from opening the ring.

The first layer of insurance is not safe enough, he also set up a second layer.

He tapped the ring lightly with his wand, and a memory image appeared above the ring.

——The house of the Gaunt family was dark, and there were slow footsteps outside the house.

The door was pushed open, and a figure walked in. He seemed very tired, walked very slowly, and raised his legs very low.

But the light was too dim to see the face clearly.

It wasn't until the man summoned a ball of light floating in the air with magic that Voldemort had never seen before that Voldemort could see his face clearly.

At that moment, Voldemort's hand shook violently, and the ring almost fell to the ground.

How could it be him!

His heart beat uncontrollably, and a very bad premonition appeared in his heart.

After Shen Yanzhou illuminated the room, he walked to the wall where the ring was hidden without any pause, then raised his hand and knocked on the wall. After there was no special movement on the wall, he used another magic spell that Voldemort had never seen before. , directly exposing the hidden space he set up.

Then he reached out and took out the ring.

Everything happened so naturally and without hindrance, as if the blindfolds set by Voldemort did not exist at all.

But Voldemort didn't feel angry or frustrated at the moment, he just felt cold all over.

The horrible feeling made his hand holding the wand tremble, but the image continued on its own.

He watched Shen Yanzhou open the ring, was attacked by a curse, and an arm was crippled almost instantly.

He saw Shen Yanzhou's magic wand jumping out by itself, cutting open the flesh and blood on his palm that was glued to the ring, and then a child suddenly appeared out of nowhere, kicking the ring far away.

And his chaotic brain at the moment can no longer think about why the professor's son hasn't grown up for so many years.

The video ends here.

Voldemort stood still, looking at the ring in his hand.In the more than ten years since he became the Dark Lord, he had rarely felt such overwhelmed emotions.

But, fortunately, no body was seen, so he should still be alive.

This is probably the only thing to be thankful for.

It's just that now he has to find a way to go to Shen Yanzhou to help him break the curse. Only he can break the spell, and if it drags on for too long, it will only get worse.

But what excuse should he use to approach Professor Shen?Could it be that you tell him that you are the murderous Dark Lord, and that I cast the curse on you?

The Dark Lord, who did all kinds of evil, was silent at the moment, and he didn't know what to do when he encountered this kind of thing.

In the end, he took action and ordered the Death Eaters to find Professor Shen's location before making the next decision.

……

Shen Yanzhou was almost out of order at St. Munger's Hospital.

Although his arm didn't show any signs of healing, it didn't deteriorate either. Thanks to Shen Yanzhou's own strength, he successfully restrained the invasion of that evil magic power.

But it was really uncomfortable, I couldn't feel my right arm, and there was often a dull pain at the junction of the normal muscle tissue and the necrotic part. Lying in bed every day made Shen Yanzhou feel like a terminally ill patient.

"Maybe I should draw a green leaf and hang it on the tree outside the window." Shen Yanzhou looked at the bare branches outside the window and said with a heavy face.

"Why?" Tian Yanbi was curious.

"Because...as long as the tree doesn't lose all its leaves, I won't die." Shen Yanzhou said with a deep expression, then looked at Tian Yanbi with a bewildered expression, and sighed: "How much have you really fallen asleep?" Don't you know such a famous story?"

"I don't want to know. Besides, you're not dead even if all the leaves fall off." Tian Yanbi quickly sealed Shen Yanzhou's mouth. You must know that Shen Yanzhou, who can neither draw nor write these days, is probably lying on the bed every day. He was so bored that he always came to bother him, and he was frightened.

"It's really uncomfortable." Shen Yanzhou looked at the ceiling and said. "My students don't come to see me, and the professors don't come to see me either. I'm really a poor guy, and I don't have any popularity at all."

Tian Yanbi looked indifferent: "They all have to go to class and school, how can they have time, besides, you asked Dumbledore to keep it a secret, don't tell the news about you in St. Munger's Hospital."

Shen Yanzhou said in a weak tone that was dying: "That's because I'm afraid of receiving another bunch of gifts with hidden love potions..."

"So who is to blame?" Tian Yanbi didn't want to talk to him.

Just as they were preparing to fight for [-] rounds around whether to visit or not to visit, there was a sudden knock on the door of Shen Yanzhou's ward.

"You can only visit for 10 minutes." As soon as the doctor finished speaking, the door was closed.

Shen Yanzhou looked towards the door of the ward, and was lamenting that someone really came to visit him, but he froze the moment his eyes touched the other person.

The other party was still handsome and personable when he left school, his slender figure was shrouded in wizard robes, tall and solid.The only difference is that his eyes have changed from pitch black like a cold night to blood red like a red tide, but the cold and darkness that can freeze people deep in his eyes has never changed.

Tom Riddle.

Or should he be called now——

Voldemort.

The moment his eyes met Voldemort, thousands of thoughts flashed through Shen Yanzhou's mind.

He is the only real student in this world, the most outstanding student of Hogwarts, one of the most powerful wizards in existence, and the dark lord who kills without blinking an eye.

Why is he here?

Shen Yanzhou quickly figured out this problem: as the Dark Lord, if you really want to find someone, it's not easy, so many subordinates are not free.

But why did he come to find himself?

Didn't he come to kill himself?

Voldemort walked to Shen Yanzhou's side, showing a calm smile: "Professor."

Shen Yanzhou looked at him, but didn't speak.

"Long time no see," said Voldemort.

After so many years, his professor is still the same, always elegant and calm, even when he is seriously injured and lying on the hospital bed, he still looks dignified and elegant.It's just that he was obviously not as calm as he appeared. His pale face and obviously thin face showed the negative impact of the injury on him.

Shen Yanzhou also nodded: "Long time no see." Indeed, it's been a long time since this guy graduated, and it's been 11 years since he graduated. Although he has exchanged letters, he hasn't seen him once.

"Professor, you have never changed." Voldemort said, his eyes fell on Shen Yanzhou's horrible right arm. "I... heard that you were injured, so I came to see you."

"Small injury." Shen Yanzhou smiled indifferently.

He suddenly thought of a question, since Voldemort is a member of the Gaunt family, should he know about the ring?

Such evil and powerful black magic might be created by the Dark Lord in front of him!

The more Shen Yanzhou thought about it, the more he felt it was possible.

"But you don't look well," said Voldemort. "This is like a curse caused by some kind of black magic. If there is no corresponding solution to the curse, it cannot be lifted."

Shen Yanzhou frowned: "You know black magic very well."

Tian Yanbi quickly poked him: "Be more polite, this is the Dark Lord! Be careful of being Avada!"

Shen Yanzhou could take it easy: "It doesn't matter."

Tian Yanbi: "..." It seems that the fact that his student grew up and became a big devil, has dealt a big blow to Shen Yanzhou.After all, this man has always considered himself an artist and educator.

Hearing Shen Yanzhou's words, Voldemort was visibly taken aback. The professor had never spoken to him in such a strong tone.

"I happen to have some understanding of curses." Voldemort said, he still had a very natural and calm look on his face, as if he was not affected by Shen Yanzhou's words at all.

"..." Shen Yanzhou suddenly chuckled. "So you want to tell me, do you happen to be able to break the curse? No one in the entire St. Munger's Hospital can do this."

No matter how stupid Voldemort is, he should understand Shen Yanzhou's attitude towards him.

"I don't understand, Professor." His voice deepened visibly.

Shen Yanzhou looked at the handsome man in front of him, who was almost the child he had grown up with, and suddenly felt extremely tired, and didn't want to play guessing games with the Dark Lord anymore.

"Just speak up if you have anything to say." Shen Yanzhou said, with a trace of fatigue in his words. "Voldemort."

As the ending sound fell, the entire ward fell silent.

The cold winter wind whistled outside the window, hitting the window recklessly, making a combined sound of wind and window collision.This should be a very small sound, but it is extraordinarily clear in the dead air.

"Professor." Voldemort was silent for a long time, and finally spoke. "Dumbledore told you?"

"It's not important." Shen Yanzhou said. "I'm just disappointed."

"I know you're disappointed," said Voldemort.He knew that he no longer needed any excuses, he knew the man in front of him even more than he knew himself.

It seems that he doesn't care about anything, and his indifferent attitude is closer to arrogance, but he loves life.

In his eyes, everything is the same, pure blood, Muggleborn, Muggle, there is no difference.Even a small piece of grass on the side of the road, in his opinion, is at the same level as human beings.

And this is destined to be people of different paths.

The fact that his Voldemort identity was broken meant that Shen Yanzhou had expressed his attitude: I will stand on the opposite side of you.

"But you don't care." Shen Yanzhou looked at Voldemort, there seemed to be no emotion in his eyes, but Voldemort could see disgust.

He should hate himself.

"I can heal your hand." Avoiding the subject, Voldemort directly talked about his purpose for coming here.

"..." Shen Yanzhou didn't move at all, as if he didn't hear it. "I do not need."

No need.

Why wouldn't it be necessary?Isn't painting the most important thing for you?Without your right arm, how do you take classes and paint?

What you don't need is not to undo the curse, but to let Voldemort undo the curse.

What you don't really need is me.

Thinking of this, the Dark Lord felt as if something exploded in his chest, and his unstable soul began to become abnormal again.He lost his mind almost in an instant, and in a blink of an eye, he fell on Shen Yanzhou's body. With one hand propped on the bed, he looked down at Shen Yanzhou's pale but even more astonishing face.

Shen Yanzhou frowned, subconsciously wanted to push the Dark Lord away with his uninjured left hand.

But that hand was easily caught.

"What are you doing?" Shen Yanzhou said angrily.

"You need it." Voldemort repeated, as if in a daze, "You need it."

"Go away!" Sensing that the other party's mood was not right, Shen Yanzhou raised his leg to kick him off, but was easily suppressed.

Tian Yanbi also knew that the situation was urgent, and was about to transform into a human form to drag the Dark Lord down, but was stopped by Shen Yanzhou.

"Don't come out."

"Why!"

"You can't beat him." Shen Yanzhou said.

Tian Yanbi was silent, it was true.The Dark Lord still has some affection for Shen Yanzhou, so he didn't hit hard, but not necessarily for himself.

Damn it, if my strength is complete...

"Why are you going to the Gaunt's house?" Voldemort said softly, approaching Shen Yanzhou's face. "Why do you want that ring?"

Shen Yanzhou gritted his teeth and did not speak.

"It's mine," said Voldemort.His hand accurately reached into Shen Yanzhou's pocket where the resurrection stone was hidden, and took out the resurrection stone.

Seeing the resurrection stone being taken away, Shen Yanzhou struggled desperately with his left hand to get rid of the Dark Lord's imprisonment, but to no avail, he could only watch the resurrection stone being taken away.

"You... bastard!" Shen Yanzhou couldn't hold back his curse.

"Professor, this is the first time you have scolded me." Voldemort said, he suddenly smiled, as if Shen Yanzhou scolded him, but he was very happy. "However, there is nothing wrong with me taking this stone away, right? It was originally my thing."

Shen Yanzhou was angry and anxious, Tian Yanbi was even more anxious than him, but Shen Yanzhou firmly suppressed him to prevent him from taking shape.

His angry look fell into Voldemort's eyes, but he felt even more amazingly beautiful.This was also the first time he saw Shen Yanzhou angry. This professor has always had a good temper. He has never been so angry, even when he was humiliated in class.

Be angry, be disappointed, let me see more.

The red tide in the Dark Lord's eyes was like a whirlpool, and the color became darker and darker. He lowered his head and slowly approached the lying Shen Yanzhou.

Slowly approach, slowly approach...

When there was only the last distance left, there was a knock on the door:

"Sir, visiting hours are over and the patient needs to rest."

The Dark Lord's movements stopped abruptly.

"Don't hurt her." Shen Yanzhou subconsciously said.

Voldemort paused on him for a while, then slowly turned sideways and jumped off Shen Yanzhou.

When he looked at Shen Yanzhou again, his eyes had returned to reason.

"You think I'm going to kill her?" He chuckled, drawing his wand.

Shen Yanzhou's pupils shrank, and he was about to stop it, but saw the Dark Lord pointing his wand at his arm.

A blue light flashed, the curse hit his arm, another burst of severe pain came, making Shen Yanzhou's face paler, cold sweat broke out, and his body trembled a little.

"If you want to get this back." Voldemort said jokingly, looking at the resurrection stone in his hand. "Just come and find me."

Shen Yanzhou looked at him, his voice trembling with pain: "Where can I find you?"

Voldemort said nothing, just put a quill by his bedside.

In the next second, the apparition disappeared.

"Sir, it's time." The nurse knocked on the door again, but there was still no one to take care of her, so she had to open the door and come in.

There was no one in the ward except the patient.

And the patient was staring at a quill from nowhere on the bedside in a daze.

"Sir?" the nurse asked tentatively.

Shen Yanzhou heard the voice of the nurse calling him, and then came back to his senses, and looked away from the portkey left by the Dark Lord.

He smiled at the nurse: "It's okay, he's gone."

"Okay." The nurse was about to leave, when she suddenly found that the skin under the bandage on Shen Yanzhou's right arm was as smooth as jade, as if the scars on admission did not exist at all.

She looked at Shen Yanzhou's right arm in surprise: "Sir, your right arm?"

Shen Yanzhou also looked down at his arm, and sighed lightly: "Go through the discharge procedures."

The resurrection stone he had finally obtained was taken away, and even if his arm recovered, he couldn't lift his spirits at all.

And it seems that his students are not only blackened, but also perverted.

Ugh.

Shen Yanzhou was soon discharged from the hospital and returned to Hogwarts.

Lao Deng was very surprised at his recovery speed. Even he had never seen the injury caused by this rare black magic, and it was almost impossible to heal by himself.

On this issue, Shen Yanzhou just vaguely passed it with a wry smile.

The other professors at Hogwarts who didn't know the truth and the young wizards were quite happy, especially the young wizards. The art appreciation class was suspended for a while. It was said that Professor Shen had asked for leave for something, so they were quite worried.Now that Professor Shen is back, they are relieved.

It's just that Professor Shen looks like he's just recovering from a serious illness, and his lectures are a little weak, and his condition is really not very good.

Tian Yanbi also expressed concern about this: "Are you okay?"

Shen Yanzhou slumped in the easy chair, with the sound of firewood beeping in the fireplace next to his ears: "What's the problem?"

"Are you really going to get the resurrection stone from Tom?" Tian Yanbi looked at the quill that Shen Yanzhou threw on the desk.

"Otherwise, what can I do? Wait for him to deliver it by himself?" Shen Yanzhou covered his face.

"Why don't we wait a little longer, maybe he will be defeated by the protagonist who appears soon." Tian Yanbi said.

"I didn't feel that the protagonist appeared at all." Shen Yanzhou said, he was indeed a little depressed.

"But if you really want to go..." Tian Yanbi didn't say it clearly, but Shen Yanzhou understood what he meant.

The current Voldemort is completely different from the original Tom.He used to be able to suppress his dark side, but now he doesn't care about letting others see it, or in other words, he deliberately lets others see his dark side in order to make others feel fear.

Besides, Voldemort had other plans for Shen Yanzhou.

This was what gave Shen Yanzhou the most headache.He did like good-looking girls and boys, but that didn't mean he liked being targeted by a psychopathic Dark Lord.

"Let's put it here first." Shen Yanzhou looked at the quill and said softly. "Wait until I'm fully recovered."

……

Time passed day by day in plain waiting.

The Dark Lord's terrorist attacks continued, and Shen Yanzhou lived in Hogwarts in an orderly manner.No matter how powerful Voldemort is, his claws cannot reach Hogwarts.So even though the outside world was already precarious under the ravages of that mysterious man who dared not even mention his name, Hogwarts still remained motionless.

All this is thanks to the headmaster of Hogwarts - Old Deng.

But Lao Deng is not omnipotent, and he is also quite distressed now.

"Oh, Tom has been acting more and more unscrupulously lately." Lao Deng said distressedly, and poured a drink for Tian Yanbi who was playing with his wand.

Shen Yanzhou's eyes also fell on the Elder Wand that Tian Yanbi was playing with.

One of the Deathly Hallows!It's a pity that I can't take it away, let alone smoke it in front of Lao Deng, what a pity.

"The pursuit by the Ministry of Magic doesn't seem to have any effect." Shen Yanzhou forced himself to look away from the Elder Wand. "I heard that Barty Crouch had promulgated the decree allowing Aurors to use the Unforgivable Curse a long time ago, why is there still little effect."

"Tom is very smart, he has always been very smart." Old Deng said. "I think he has an eyeliner in the Ministry of Magic... He can always know our actions one step ahead, and we are in a completely passive state."

"Can you find out who is the informer?" Shen Yanzhou asked. "Vitaserum?"

"Teritaserum is not completely effective, and unreasonable doubts are not convincing." Old Deng shook his head.

Shen Yanzhou also sighed. On the one hand, he still has some feelings for his students, but on the other hand, he desperately hopes that this war will end quickly and Voldemort will collapse quickly so that he can recover the resurrection stone.

"It would be great if we could know where Tom's stronghold is." Old Deng said thoughtfully. "Every time the Death Eaters' stronghold is found, it's a fake, almost a trap. If you can find a real stronghold, then there is a way to catch them all."

Shen Yanzhou was silent, he suddenly thought of the quill lying quietly on his desk, the Portkey left by Voldemort.

He opened his mouth, but finally said nothing.

"But having said that." Lao Deng looked at Tian Yanbi who was holding on to the old wand and refused to let go, and said with a smile: "This child has been around for more than ten years, and he really hasn't grown up at all. Every time I look at it, I feel miraculous. "

Shen Yanzhou has already answered this question many times, so there is no pressure to talk about it again: "Haha, are you envious of our Eastern wizard's special physique?"

"Yes, it's really amazing." Lao Deng nodded. "When everything settles down, I must find an opportunity to travel to the East... The British magic world knows too little about the Asian magic world..."

"Haha, welcome anytime." Shen Yanzhou laughed.

……

Back in his office, Shen Yanzhou sat at the desk, looked at the quill on the desk, and rested his chin without saying a word.

"Are you ready to go?" Tian Yanbi asked.

"Yes, I'm ready." Shen Yanzhou said. "There's no point in procrastinating any longer. The resurrection stone must always be brought back."

"Aren't you going to tell Lao Deng about this?" Tian Yanbi asked.

"..." Shen Yanzhou was silent for a while, then sighed: "Let's talk..."

Tian Yanbi was also silent.Although this guy looks ruthless, he really can't help but be ruthless towards his students.

"Then I'm leaving." Shen Yanzhou said, he held the quill and disappeared from the spot, and the quill slowly fell down and landed on the desk.

An extremely uncomfortable squeeze came, and Shen Yanzhou arrived at the destination in a daze.

It looks like a forest here, and it is very quiet except for the rustling of leaves.The sunlight poured down from the gaps in the leaves, and cast spots of light on the ground covered with green grass, which were chopped up by the shadow of the grass and floated freely.

"What is this place?" Shen Yanzhou looked around.

"I don't know." Said the Tianyan pen lying in his pocket.

Shen Yanzhou tentatively took a few steps in one direction, and soon noticed a hut hidden among the trees.

This is a small villa that does not look luxurious, or it is just a very ordinary three-storey cottage. The exterior walls are not decorated, making this building look inconspicuous.

But such a building appearing in a forest is a bit weird.

Shen Yanzhou didn't hesitate for too long, walked directly into the courtyard, opened the door and walked in.

There are two worlds inside and outside the door. When Shen Yanzhou opened the door and saw the scene inside, his first reaction was whether he had entered the wrong room and walked into an art gallery.

Really, it's like a private art gallery, with all kinds of paintings hanging everywhere, and the standards are quite high, even Shen Yanzhou can't find any faults.

Shen Yanzhou is also very familiar with the style of these paintings.

Because this is his only student, and under his teaching, he gradually formed his own style of painting.

Shen Yanzhou looked at these paintings one by one, and almost forgot what he was doing here.He didn't react until a voice suddenly sounded behind him.

"Professor, have my drawing skills improved over the years?"

Shen Yanzhou turned his head abruptly, and saw a slender and tall figure standing there at the corner of the corridor, with a smile on his handsome face, looking at him quietly.

Shen Yanzhou nodded.

The Dark Lord's smile deepened, and he walked towards Shen Yanzhou slowly, saying, "It's rare that I have a guest here, and it's a distinguished guest like a professor, I hope you can sit for a while longer."

"This is your home?" Shen Yanzhou asked.

"Yes." The Dark Lord admitted without hesitation. "Wonderful, isn't it? Those Aurors from the Ministry of Magic wouldn't think of it at all, they'd just wander around like headless chickens, and then fall headlong into the traps prepared for them."

Shen Yanzhou was silent, and the Dark Lord also knew that the other party didn't seem to like such topics, so he changed the subject in a relaxed tone: "Professor, go upstairs and have a seat."

Shen Yanzhou nodded: "Okay."

Shen Yanzhou followed Voldemort up the stairs, and the two sides of the stairs were also covered with paintings. Shen Yanzhou looked at them as he walked.

"When I traveled in Europe, I liked this place very much," said Voldemort. "This is a forest in Albania, isn't it very quiet? I always thought this is a good place to hide things. Even if someone knows that you are in the Albanian forest, it will be difficult for him to find the exact location. After all, this place is too big."

"That's true." Shen Yanzhou agreed.On the wall he saw an aerial view of Albania, with layers of lush trees undulating like ocean waves.

"Does the professor need something to drink?" Voldemort asked, and they came to the living room on the second floor.

"No need." Shen Yanzhou hastily refused.

The Dark Lord didn't care, he just smiled.

Shen Yanzhou noticed a painting hanging in the center of the living room.

It was an ink painting that I drew 13 years ago, and it was full of bamboo. It was painted to celebrate Tom becoming a prefect. Chinese people always like to use bamboo to symbolize rising, and his students have lived up to it. His hopes climbed to a dire state.

The Dark Lord also noticed Shen Yanzhou's gaze, and he looked at the painting: "Professor, you gave it to me."

Shen Yanzhou nodded: "I didn't expect you to keep it."

"Of course, because it was given by the professor." The Dark Lord laughed.

"It doesn't have the temperament of a demon king at all." Tian Yanbi complained in Shen Yanzhou's mind. "Still like the student you were back then."

"Who knows what he's thinking in his heart." Shen Yanzhou said indifferently.
