HP - the time the ring is still

Kleist at the top.They bowed to salute each other and then staggered their eyes, while Kleist kept watching the direction they left and the whole island, then jumped off the mast to find Covent and explained the reason to him, and then continued to take his boat back to Middle Earth.

Tom Riddle was walking on the way to the library. Occasionally, students or professors passing by on the way would say hello to him, and he would always smile back with a friendly attitude.Tom Riddle walked with his head held high on a road that he could not reach the destination in his impression, but he knew that, just like Hogwarts in the past, it was also full of traps and secret passages, but he had not discovered it by himself That's all.

Even his Hee-hee face could not hide his deepest thoughts. At breakfast, Christopher Cooper stood beside him and said to him with a deep face: "There is a painting at the corner of the second staircase, kissing the lady's head in the painting." Right hand, she will take you to a place where Kleist is waiting for you!" Tom Riddle nodded in understanding, and when he turned to leave, Christopher Cooper suddenly grabbed his collar and whispered: "Don't Lie!" Then strode away quickly.Tom Riddle frowned watching Christopher Cooper's leaving back.

Tom Riddle found the portrait of the lady as Christopher Cooper said, and kissed her hand as he said, and said some compliments. The lady holding the fan smiled very happily. She stepped out of her frame and crossed the One picture after another leads Tom Riddle to walk in the aisle on the second floor, but there is a special passage hidden behind the door of a classroom, turn the doorknob three times, and a staircase will appear. Tom Riddle waved goodbye, and Tom Riddle smiled gratefully and saluted gracefully.

After the lady disappeared, Tom Riddle walked up the dark stairs with a wooden face. The narrow road suddenly became clear after he walked for a long time. He came to the library on the top floor of Estelle College. He once heard Christopher Cooper say Estelle has two libraries, and he has never found a way to enter this hidden library. He never thought it would be so simple.

Tom Riddle is now standing at the registration desk of the library, looking at the library, which is at least 50 feet high, with a circular vault. Very good, the whole library is open and bright, the tall bookcases are full of various books, the middle of the library is a desk, and the bookshelves are placed against the wall to form a huge circle.There are two spiral staircases extending upwards from both sides for easy access to books.It's very quiet here, it looks like there's no one there.

"You're here!" A female voice suddenly sounded in the empty library room, Tom Riddle looked in the direction of the sound, Kleist was walking down the spiral staircase, followed by a bunch of models strange book.

"Your Highness, you are looking for me!" Tom Riddle saluted politely.

"Well, I want to talk to you! Please sit down." Kleist slowly walked down the stairs and pointed to a prescription table directly below.A set of tea sets and several plates of snacks appeared on the table where there was nothing.

Tom Riddle walked over. He stared at the woman who came down the stairs. It is not accurate to say that she is a woman. She still has the innocence of a girl. This is very contradictory. A murderous person rarely maintains a kind heart In nature, she and the people behind her seem to be the same, with two sides that are very different.

Tom Riddle doesn't know Kleist, all he knows about her is from the side, or through other people's dictation.She is the only existence that Tom Riddle feels a little afraid of. Unlike Dumbledore, she is so strong that she has almost no weaknesses. She has no brothers and sisters. She was born in the Holy See. Even Muggle parents are not simple characters, let alone standing behind her. of those young people.But she's a Slytherin, and even though she's acting reserved and humble, Tom Riddle knows that those are illusions, and like him, they'll hide their true purpose and intentions.As long as people have weaknesses, and Kleist's weaknesses seem to be in the Muggle world, this is the only information that Tom Riddle currently has, and it is also a piece of useless information.

Kleist picked up the teapot and gave Tom Riddle a cup of tea, then smiled and said, "It seems like we've never sat down to get to know each other like this."

Tom Riddle stirred the black tea, "You're joking! Cooper knows me very well, and you must have heard of me too."

"Christopher!" Kleist looked up at the transparent dome and said with a smile: "He is really good to you. You can sit here and drink tea alive because of him. Except for him, no one of us wants you to live."

Tom Riddle took a sip of the teacup quietly, and his movements were calm, as if what Kleist said was not meant for him. He lowered his eyes and did not easily show his expression, especially in front of Kleist. .

Kleist continued: "Christopher is the one closest to you among us, but I was the first to contact you. Even when you split your soul, I stood behind you."

"This is impossible!" Tom Riddle finally reacted, and it was extremely fierce. He was very confident. Even if he failed, it was the result of calculations. He absolutely did not believe that Kleist would shuttle freely in his mansion. , Even peeping at himself in the secret room of his own agency.

Kleist shrugged meaninglessly: "That was when I was in the third grade! Ever since I saw you split your soul, I think you are the stupidest person I have ever seen, and you actually use yourself to experiment Those black magics that are full of loopholes. Isn’t your current situation caused by the failure of black magic! If your soul is intact, we will not defeat you so easily, at least when I first saw you, I was very Look after you."

"Then what changed your mind?" Tom Riddle tried his best to talk to Kleist calmly. He knew that the hatred for Kleist was mixed with fear, and the girl in front of him could easily end him. life.

"A lot of things," Kleist thought for a while, but he really didn't know where to start, so he had to say, "Probably that time my relatives were hurt in the wizarding world! I think this world should be decided by itself." Well, at least no one can be harmed under my wing."

"You are so kind!"

"Haha!" Kleist laughed loudly as if hearing some interesting joke, "You are so sarcastic!" The laughter stopped abruptly, Kleist looked directly at Tom Riddle with cold blue eyes Full of murderous intent, "Even now, I still don't want to keep you! I don't even know if your abilities are worth our risk as Christopher expected. Life experience tells me that any germ of danger should be snuffed out in the cradle Riddle, what about you? Mr. Riddle, what can you promise? What is your worth?"

Now Tom Riddle finally understands the meaning of Christopher Cooper's words "don't lie" before he left. Go, it is impossible for him to allow himself to be forgotten by the world in such obscurity.

Tom Riddle clenched his hands under the table, knowing that he had no way out.He stood up, walked to Kleist's side, knelt down on one knee, lowered his head and said, "I am willing to dedicate my loyalty and fight for your will for the rest of my life. Betrayal is death!"

Kleist didn't answer, she stirred the teacup lightly, and the atmosphere was so quiet that there was no breathing between them.After a while, Kleist let out a chuckle.

Tom Riddle bit his lip. He knew that Kleist didn't care about his life at all, and his oath was meaningless.When he took a deep breath and was about to say the oath again, a long sword came to his shoulder, Kleist said: "Swear to her, if you break the oath, let her cut off your head!"

Tom Riddle lowered his eyes and looked at the long sword on his shoulders, stretched out his right hand to hold her, he straightened his back and looked directly at Kleist and said: "You have given me trust, and I will return your honor. I Pave your way to become king with blood and praise. I swear, I am willing to cut through the darkness and rush to the dawn with a knife in your hand, and I will defend your rights and glory to the death."

Kleist put down the long sword, wiped off the blood on it, and smiled happily: "Mine is also theirs."

"Yes!"

"Get up! Mr. Riddle, remember your oath. I can give you hope, and I can also bring you back to your original shape or even death. May we all have a bright future. Starting tomorrow, I will let Christopher Cooper I will transfer part of the power to you, and I will wait for your good news!"

"Yes!" When Tom Riddle stood up, there was no sign of Kleist. He sat on the seat next to him dully and looked at his cut palm until night fell. No one knew that he was here today. What did you give up to survive.He wanted to be an existence that everyone in the world looked up to, but he bowed his head in front of his strength.How ironic that he, Voldemort, wants to fight for others from today on!

"Compared to other people who have nothing, you will be glad that between rights and eternal life, you have at least one thing."

"This is your purpose, because I am a despicable ghost who is good at playing power, you can hold me and make me work for you in order to survive!" Tom Riddle glared at the young man who came from the shadows, he repressed dare not be right
