The more you have, the more you will be controlled by me.I've almost exhausted his energy, and he won't even be able to breathe in a while.But I'll remember what he did in life: opening the Chamber of Secrets and all the horrific raids.You should have seen the look on his face as he wrote his last words, Weasley, he did a much better job than you. 】
[Wait, I don't quite understand. ] Harry took a step back, 【Why do you want to do something? 】
[Of course it's for you. ] Riddle's expression loosened a bit, 【Everything is to bring you here, Harry Potter.I was at Weasley's at first, and I figured he'd fall for me sooner or later and recommend me to you...but there was a slight glitch and I wasted a lot of time listening to this Mudblood crap.Fortunately, you finally came. 】
【What are you looking for me for? ] Harry asked, he finally realized that the opponent in front of him was not easy to deal with, and he had other plans.
[Ask you one thing. 】Riddle’s figure floated around them, and every time he said a word, the expression on his face became frenzied, 【Tell me——how an ordinary baby, who doesn’t know magic at all, defeated the greatest wizard of this century of?I mean - how did you, Harry Potter, escape from Voldemort and be safe, only to have his powers destroyed? 】
[What does this have to do with you?Voldemort came many years after your death. ] Harry responded coldly.
Misty laughter greeted in the stone room. [Voldemort...and Tom Riddle...] He repeated the two names softly and repeatedly, 【Don't you understand, Harry Potter?Voldemort is my past, present and future...]
☆、Chapter41 Tom Riddle(2)
He stretched out his finger and drew his name in the air, and then with a light wave, the letters of [TomMarvoloRiddle] were rearranged and became [IAmLordVoldemort]
[Voldemort is the name I named myself,] He smiled, as if telling someone else's story, [My mother is the last descendant of the Gaunt family and a pure-blood descendant of Salazar Slytherin.Do you think I'd be willing to use my dirty Muggle father's name knowing all this? Voldemort... VOLEDEMORT (French: Flying away from death)... What a beautiful name, the moment I wrote it, I knew that one day, I would become the greatest wizard in the world. 】
Riddle's black eyes showed intoxication, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, like creases on white paper, with a trace of sternness and pretentiousness lightly folded into it.
[You are wrong, Tom Riddle.Dumbledore is the greatest wizard in the world. 】Harry emphasized his real name, and his next words made the phantom on the opposite side even more angry.Under the faint white light, Riddle's handsome face was distorted, and blood-like red light flashed in his eyes: 【No!I……】
He didn't say what he wanted to say, but a sudden singing interrupted him.Ron raised his head, and a crimson bird descended from the sky, circling above their heads, and its song was scattered like fireworks, instantly filling the entire stone chamber.Ron had never heard such a bird song, so ethereal and ethereal, he seemed to see the forest and the gurgling stream in the morning, the blue sky enveloped the stone chamber, and the elves shuttled and bathed during it, everything was filled with a mysterious and holy atmosphere.Its voice became higher and higher, and Ron felt that life in his chest was waking up, and his whole body was full of vitality and courage again.On the contrary, Riddle covered his chest with his hands, and the light around him became weaker and weaker.
[It's Fox.Dumbledore's Phoenix. ] Harry said happily, and Riddle frowned and hissed because of Dumbledore's name.Together Ron and Harry looked up to Fawkes expectantly, hoping it would bring Dumbledore's instructions.However, Fox just kept circling, and after flying for a while, it let go of its claws and threw the Sorting Hat into Harry's arms.
Harry and Ron looked at each other.Riddle laughed wildly, and the initial tension was swept away: [This is what the "Greatest Wizard" can give you-a singing bird and a broken hat, well, I allow you Use it on my snake. 】Before Harry could say anything, he heard a deep hollow cry, and the mouth of the Slytherin stone statue grew slowly, forming a bottomless deep hole.In that deep hole - with a hissing sound, something swam forward.
Dust fell from the top of their heads, and all the stone pillars shook violently with the action of that thing. The stone chamber was bouncing up and down like a boat in a storm. Ron was unsteady on his feet and fell on the sloping ground. Sliding away, his back hit the foot of the stone pillar heavily.Riddle waved again, and Harry and Ron's wands flew into the air.Fox's chirping became more intense, "Don't disappoint Dumbledore," Riddle said, "I think with his help, you don't need a wand anymore. 】Just after he finished the last word, two glowing eyes protruded from the deep hole, and a huge snake head appeared. It landed slowly and crawled towards them.
[I can't move my feet. ] Ron said in a panic.The basilisk made him almost forget to breathe, and when he regained consciousness for a while, he realized that his right foot was fixed by the collapsed stone.Harry was sitting not far from him, holding on to the old sorting hat, with a strange expression on his face.
[Did you find anything, Harry? ] Ron crawled forward and asked softly.
[Shut up, Ron. 】Harry stared at the basilisk which was getting closer and closer to them.Ron didn't dare to look anymore, his body was shaking violently, he closed his eyes cowardly, and the body of the basilisk wriggling forward was still imprinted on his cornea.Compared with the snake skin you saw when you came in, it was even bigger, treacherous, slippery, and terrifying.The hissing sound approached, and his stomach turned.For the first time, he realized that compared with real death, the deep sense of fear and powerlessness before death was more debilitating.
A scream pierced a hole in his emotions, and a blinding white light exploded in front of his eyes.Ron opened his eyes in surprise, Fox swooped down on the basilisk, pecked at its bright vertical pupils, and black blood spattered everywhere.The basilisk slammed its head on the ground heavily, causing the stone chamber to roll over again.Riddle roared angrily: [No!Get off that bird and smell that boy!Kill him! 】
At the very moment, Harry let go of the sorting hat he was holding tightly, and stretched out his right hand. Only then did Ron see clearly that there was a glowing sword hidden inside, with an egg-sized ruby shining brightly on the hilt. eye-catching.Harry rushed towards the basilisk that was still circling Fox. He stepped on a boulder, swung his sword, and pointed towards its head—but the basilisk turned its head suddenly, and it obviously smelled Harry.
【No! ’ cried Ron.The basilisk opened its huge mouth, and Harry had no time to dodge, the sword only pierced the snake's upper jaw.The basilisk grunted in pain and shook its head violently. Harry's tiny body flew to the side and hit the cold ground.More stones fell, trapping the giant body of the basilisk. The head of the basilisk was lowered wearily, and it fell close to Ron. He could clearly see its deep mouth and smell a strong smell. of stench.
[Harry—] Ron roared, [Harry—]
No one answered, and the stone chamber seemed to be dead at this time.Fox groaned and landed next to Harry's body.Ron frantically pushed against the rock that was holding down his right foot, but it didn't budge.Before he knew it, tears were already pouring out of his eyes, he felt that his body was overdrawn by anger and grief, and the endless exhaustion almost crushed him.
Riddle laughed, and his laughter sprang up from all directions like vines, gnawing at Ron's hands and feet. [Today is Harry Potter's death day. 】He said.
[You are talking nonsense!Harry is not dead! 】
[Yes, he is not dead yet. 】Riddle said contemptuously,【But it's too soon. 】His black eyes were covered by long eyelashes, and he glanced at the agitated Ron and the basilisk indifferently, revealing a strange smile.
[Ron Weasley, you are a pure-blood, I intend to give you a chance. 】
【What? ] roared Ron, who couldn't believe what Riddle was saying.
【I said, I want to give you a chance. ] Riddle smiled even more, he spread his arms, 【You also saw that Harry Potter passed out, and my snake was only slightly injured.It could end Potter's life at my command. 】He continued slowly: 【However, if you can kill Harry Potter with that sword for me, I will spare your life. 】
[This is simply ridiculous!How could I kill Harry? 】
[You have no other choice. 】Compared to Ron, Riddle seemed calm and composed, he even crossed his arms, 【You don't have a weapon, my basilisk can attack as long as it takes a short rest, it's only a matter of time.If you know how to seize the opportunity to show loyalty, you can live... Otherwise, you can only die with him. 】
Ron's head had never worked so fast, not even during final exams.He had to admit that Riddle was right. Judging from the current situation, Harry and his life were in Riddle's hands. As long as Riddle wanted, he could command the sword to kill them now, or wait quietly. The basilisks recovered and their wands were under his control.If he wanted to survive, he could only follow Riddle's instructions.
But how could he kill Harry? !Ron subconsciously pressed the necklace around his neck, and said to himself silently in his heart: 【It will be fine if you go back to the time when you first entered the stone room. ] But nothing happened. [Perhaps the time disorder just now was really an illusion. ] he thought desperately.
[TictokTictok——] Riddle happily imitated the sound of the clock running, 【Your time is running out.Reveal the answer in your heart. 】Beside him, the basilisk began to hiss and growl, and its vertical eyes aimed at Ron.
No, wait, something is wrong.Ron forced himself to calm down.What does Hermione say every time you review before the exam? [Guess the intention of the questioner. 】That's right, he shouldn't always think about things from his own point of view, he should also think about the other party - why does the insidious and cunning Riddle do such a thankless thing?Unless, the truth of the matter is not as he originally thought... Unless he is not completely weak!
If Harry's injury took away half of his fear ([It's the way it is anyway, I can't do anything worse.] he consoled himself), this thought took away the other half.He looked back at the basilisk that made him shudder, forcing himself to examine every inch of its skin.At this moment, a sharp bolt of lightning crashed into his mind, and he discovered something.
【I don't understand why you waste your time. ] Riddle took another step back towards the basilisk, the smile on his face restrained a little.
[I won't do this. 】Ron said loudly,【Harry is my best friend, we come from glorious Gryffindor.If you are so evil, kill us immediately. ] After finishing speaking, he stared at Riddle's eyes, and finally found a little looseness in them. At this moment, his heart was slightly relieved.Riddle's performance showed that his guess was probably right.
Suspicion flashed across Riddle's face. [Do you know what price you will pay for your stupidity?I rarely give others a chance, would you rather die than join the Slytherin camp?Dumbledore is not here. When he finds out, you are already a cold corpse. No one can see your so-called justice. Wake up, Weasley. 】
【You are really good at coaxing people, Riddle. 】Ron glanced at him,【Death and being with the heir of Slytherin, I do choose the former.However, if I choose the latter, I am afraid I will die faster. 】
[Your snake is not as healthy as you said, it can't get out of the stone pile.It has fatal wounds, otherwise, why do you keep standing in front of its left abdomen? 】
Riddle restrained his smile, [very interesting guess,] he said coolly, [but even if my snake fails, you still control it for me, don't you? 】
【no.From the beginning, the only chip you have prepared for yourself is this basilisk, you are too arrogant. 】Ron said firmly, 【Remember what you said when we entered the door?You say you're just a memory, so you can't move Fenriely.That being the case, how can you handle swords and wands? 】
Riddle's smile disappeared completely.
Ron went on to say: [You just wrote in the air and hung our wands in the air, which made me almost forget that you are just a memory, and you are just using the energy left by Voldemort in the diary.You can't actually pick up your wand and yell the Killing Curse.You can't bear the cry of a phoenix, let alone wield the sword of Gryffindor.You tempted me with the words of joining Slytherin, but you hope that I will be obsessed with you and surrender to you, so that you can control my body again and control the sword through me.But I won't be fooled by you a second time. 】
For the first time, Ron felt a lion roaring inside him, the real Lion of Gryffindor.He wanted to scold himself, how could he forget the most important thing because of fear?Hasn't Riddle been manipulating fearful people to work for him all this time?He is just a memory, how could he ever have the ability to do evil himself!
【hehe. ] After a long time, Riddle laughed softly, 【Maybe you are right.But I still have a lot of advantages over you after all. ] He raised his hand again, and a piercing pain hit Ron's chest, and he couldn't help but exclaimed.
【It is true that I don't have much energy, but I can still torture you to death before other people arrive. 】His eyes glowed again, 【You know what?Besides the Killing Curse, I have many ways to inflict pain. 】
[You must not be intimidated by him. ] Ron gritted his teeth.What Riddle threw at him was a physical and psychological test. He had reason to believe that once fear resurfaced in his heart, Riddle would seize this opportunity to seize control of his body and stab the sword into Harry's heart , he must not let this happen.
His vision gradually blurred, and he looked in Harry's direction in a daze.Now, Merlin!He seemed...he seemed to see Harry's body move!The phoenix soared up and screamed excitedly.Its glistening tears kept dripping down Harry's body, and Harry straightened up and stood up.Just when Riddle loosened his grip on Ron and was about to attack Harry, Ron had time to shout: [Harry, diary! 】
The diary was in Harry's hand, and he snatched it away.Riddle's inability to control the diary because he was a part of it was yet another blunder on his part.His whole body burst into dazzling white light, his handsome face was ferocious, and he tried to use his little strength to throw everything at one basket. 【Fox! ’ cried Harry.The phoenix scooped up Harry with its claws, took him away from Riddle's fatal blow, and flew over the snake's mouth.Harry pulled the sword from the basilisk's mouth, lowered the diary in his hand, and aimed at the snake's fangs.
[No——] At the last moment before losing consciousness, Ron heard Riddle's hysterical roar. 【I finally didn't get controlled by him for the second time.Maybe one of the worst things Lucius Malfoy ever did was let me get the diary early. ] Thinking of this, he completely fainted.
☆、Chapter42 The magic card game before leaving school (1)
Although he was injured again before the summer vacation, when Ron saw Hermione again in front of the Hogwarts dining room door, he felt that all the efforts of Harry and himself were extremely worthwhile.Justin Fletcher smiled at him from the other long table, and he was that goofy Hufflepuff again.
【Harry, tell me, how did you defeat that unmentionable person? ] Seamus and Dean squeezed into the trio and sat down with great difficulty. Obviously, they didn't notice that Ron was also among the adventurers, but this time, Ron didn't feel uncomfortable.He thought it was because, now that he was fully convinced that he had a Gryffindor lion inside him, he had become more confident.
[I poked the diary with the basilisk fangs, and the memory of Tom Riddle was destroyed.I must thank Ron, if he hadn't subdued Riddle temporarily, I would have been killed before I woke up. ] Ron looked back in surprise, Harry's green eyes were flickering at him.
[Ron?You... you subdued Tom Riddle? 】
【Tom Riddle is not alone," Ron explained helplessly, 【He is just a memory that Voldemort once stored in his diary. As long as he doesn't control his will, he can't deal with you. 】
Seamus and Dean's eyes widened. 【what happens?Why are you looking at me like that? ] He looked at Harry questioningly.
[Ron,] Harry coughed twice on purpose, with a smile in his eyes, [You said 'Voldemort', which scared Seamus and Dean. 】
Hearing these words, Ron himself was stunned.But a month ago, he had carefully told Harry not to call him by that name, and a sincere smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: [Yeah, I plan to call him that from now on, Harry. 】
Just as Dumbledore announced this year's House Cup winner, Ron's eyes wandered over the dining room to meet someone's eyes.The man still had brand-new robes and a well-groomed hairstyle. Ron smiled at him, gently raised his injured arm to prove his heroic behavior, but in exchange for the other party's stare, and the eyes that quickly moved away .He looked downcast. [Fortunately, the summer vacation is here, otherwise he might have to talk about it for a week.It's not that I'm stupid, it's just that the academy that slanders me is not as stable as his. ] Ron thought with some gratitude, but at the same time felt sad, yes, another school year is over, and they will be in the third grade next year.
When Dumbledore said Gryffindor's name, there was a startling cheer from the long table in the Court of Lions, and Ron didn't miss the smile that quickly faded from the corner of his lover's mouth.More students flocked to him and Harry, and Harry was quickly picked up and thrown. The twins tried to hug their younger brother and turn them around. Ron almost climbed onto the dining table, and they were discouraged. The professors stood in front of the stage, watching with smiles.When Ron was finally thrown high by the crowd, he watched the rising and falling golden ceiling, and a firework exploded in his heart.
The night before returning home is always crazy and enjoyable.The door of every dormitory in Gryffindor was wide open, and the students were scurrying around in the room full of laughter, [Is my mirror with you? ] or 【Thank you for lending me the Notes for Transfiguration Class】.Ron didn't like packing, and he wasn't very good at it. He was always awkwardly arranging clothes one by one on the bed and folding them slowly.
【Harry, you are really good at tidying up. ] He said while fiddling with the sleeves of his college shirt, 【Every kind of clothes folds differently, and I can only wrap them in a ball, why did my mother forget to teach me the spell to fold clothes? 】
[Are you going to rely on spells for everything in the future? ] Harry reluctantly closed his suitcase and stepped forward to help him. [Good Harry Potter. 】 Ron deliberately teased him, Harry elbowed him, and they all laughed.
[Why are you still hiding in the dormitory? 】Seamore's face appeared at the door, and he pointed in the direction of the common room in surprise, 【Everyone broke out, and Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw students also came.Everyone should share the snacks stored this semester, if you don't go, they will be robbed. ] After finishing speaking, he seemed to remind himself, and hurriedly disappeared by the door.
Ron and Harry looked at each other, silently speeding up their progress. [I didn't expect the other two colleges to come here, which is quite interesting. I haven't made friends with people from other colleges, except for Justin. ] Ron said, and suddenly he remembered something, [Hey, Harry, will Cho Chang come too? 】
【She will. 】Harry said in an affirmative tone,【When we met yesterday, I asked her out. 】
Ron felt a little complicated in his heart.Maybe it's because the best friend is about to witness a love affair, maybe it's because Draco Malfoy will never show up in the Gryffindor common room. 【Oh, great, you have to be careful not to be teased to death by Gemini, I will do the same. ] He blinked.
Ron didn't expect to see Justin Finlayry in the lounge. The curly-haired boy was devastated by the diary. Ron thought he would stay with Madam Pomfrey to recuperate.The boy also saw him and waved to him shyly.Ron looked to the other side following Harry's indicated eyes. A beautiful girl with black hair and black eyes was chatting with Hermione in an armchair. Oh, that was Qiu Zhang, Ravenclaw's garden flower. Harry was indeed lucky boy.Ron raised an eyebrow at Harry, and the two walked in different directions.
【Hey, are you feeling better?I thought you wouldn't come. ] Ron imitated Justin and sat on the rug by the fireplace.
【not bad. ] Ron could hear the boy's voice was still a little weak, 【Thank you and Harry for saving me. 】He stared at his wound carefully, 【I remember you are always getting hurt. 】
[Haha, it seems to be true. 】Ron tried to move his arm, the potion had already taken effect, he untied the bandage wrapped around it and put it aside, 【Fortunately, Madam Pomfrey's magic is superb. 】
【deeply appreciated. ] Justin's brown eyes flickered for a moment, and Ron felt he had something to say to himself.He waited for a while, but the boy pursed his lips, and finally said nothing.Compared to the hustle and bustle on Harry's side, there were few people around the fireplace, and the atmosphere seemed a bit lonely.
[Well, why don't we go over there and have a look? ] Ron scratched his hair in embarrassment, and Justin seemed relieved: [Okay, let's go. 】
Ron and Justin joined the "armchair club" and sat next to Harry, with Cho Chang and Hermione on the other side of Harry.And on Hermione's left sat two unfamiliar faces that Ron had never seen before, and they were all Ravenclaws from the school uniforms.The girl has blond hair and blue eyes, with wandering eyes, while the boy has brown hair and brown eyes, fair face, and a few freckles near the bridge of the nose, which made Ron feel a calm and quiet temperament.
He held out his hand to both of them. [Hi, I'm Ron Weasley. 】
[Hello,] The girl's ethereal voice was incompatible with the atmosphere of the whole lounge. When she looked up at him, the slack pupils made Ron think that there was a ghost behind him. [I'm Luna Lovegood.Your hair is beautiful, like a flame. 】
There was Harry's low laugh.Ron's face was hot, and he turned to the other person at a loss: [Hello. 】
[Hello, Rolf Scamander, Ravenclaw. ] The boy answered briefly.Hermione, who was a seat away from him, said that they all knew each other from the society she founded in Ravenclaw.
[Luna and I belong to the Society of Fantastic Beasts. ] said Scamander.
[Rolf's grandfather is Newt Scamander. ] Hermione told Ron and Harry in an exclamation tone, 【He is the author of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them". 】Her face turned pale pink due to excitement, and just as Ron was about to say something, he was slapped vigorously on the left and right shoulders, and he turned his head angrily—yes, two redheads.
[The last madness before the holiday! ] Fred slipped the candy from Ron's hand into his pocket, and threw something into his arms before he jumped up. [What's the fun in eating snacks? ([Then you give me back the candy!] said Ron.) Why not try the Weasley brothers' party favors? 】
【What's this? 】Ron and Harry got together and opened the colorful glittering cardboard box. Dozens of yellow or blue playing cards eagerly flew out of it, neatly arranged in a circle in the air.
[We haven't given it a name yet, this is the latest product, we got inspiration from a Muggle game. 】Fred and George hooked up shoulder to shoulder,【Blue card tells the truth, yellow card takes risks.Choose one, then answer the questions or fulfill the adventure as required, be careful, you will be punished by cards if you don't do it well enough.Cards can test lies~]
Seeing the way his brothers looked at each other and smiling, Ron already had a premonition that this was a malicious game. [I think eating snacks and chatting is good,] Ron retorted, looking around the crowd as he spoke, sure that someone would come out and agree.Hmm... Wait, why even Hermione seemed hesitant to speak, he was absolutely right, Cho Chang blushed, and Harry looked uncomfortable but didn't say anything.
Everyone clearly wants to play this game?Ron silently hugged the cardboard box in his arms. Even if he only had "a teaspoon of emotion", he could sense the ambiguous atmosphere fermenting over the lounge.Merlin, this is simply a disaster. He looked at Justin helplessly, and was surprised to find that the boy's expression was similar to his, showing distress. The difference was that the boy's earlobes were red.
[So, everyone joins? 】Fred was the first to notice Ron's hesitation, and put his arm around his shoulders, 【The absolute rule of this game is——】
[Those who have secrets must participate! ] George answered.
[Can't people who don't have secrets participate? ] The ethereal voice flew towards George, Luna asked with wide blue eyes, as if she had just woken up, she observed the expressions of Qiu Zhang and Harry with a puzzled face, making Harry blush.
[Of course, girl. 】George stepped forward, added two chairs between her and Scamander, entered the game with Fred, gloated at the golden trio on the opposite side, approached her and said,【People without secrets only need In charge of the theater. 】
[Are you the same as me? ] Luna quietly watched Fred drag the chair to Angelina's side silently, 【Because you don't have anyone you like? 】
George was choked by her for a long time, and Ron almost laughed out loud.Even Fred couldn't easily deflate George. He himself had only been teased at home, which made the scene in front of him all the more precious.
Well, it's just a game.Ron shrank back into the soft armchair, signaling his compromise with gestures. [If the magic card asks questions about love, it will be punished at worst.Anyway, I will never reveal the secret. ] As he thought about it, he smiled and looked at the couples around him who were still in the trial stage.
【Among the people sitting here, the one who only has a teaspoon of emotion is definitely not me. 】He thought lazily, 【Can't people with secrets watch a good show? 】
☆、Chapter43 Secret
After a brief debate, more than a dozen students joined the Gemini game.As the promoter, Fred took the lead in drawing cards. He chose the truth, and the blue magic card asked him about the three things he hated the most.
[Can you only say three things? ] Fred groaned strangely, you could tell he was racking his brains, [OWLs exams, Filch and Mom's corned beef sandwiches. 】
[You don't like corned beef either! 】Ron said in surprise, 【I thought you like to eat, and mom always cooks it. 】
【Merlin, it's George who likes to eat, but Mom can't tell us apart. 】Fred winked, 【Well, I also hate being "distinguishable". 】
[But I also like it very much. ] George bumps him.The blue card got a relatively satisfactory answer, and returned to its original position obediently.The yellow and blue magic cards began to rotate in different clockwise directions, and they were automatically shuffled.Fred fiddled with the pointer in the center of the crowd, and the red arrow pointed to Luna.
[I want to try yellow. ] She said, shaking her feet, and picked a card that was far away from her.The yellow card jumped in front of her: [Please stand on the long table in the lounge and imitate Tarantella's dance steps. 】
Ron twitched his lips, not daring to imagine how the blonde girl would deal with the situation in front of her.Will she ask for a redraw?Or embarrassingly do what the cards ask?The long table is now in the center of the lounge, and the Tarantella dance moves are hilarious.
Fred and George looked at each other. [This piece was definitely written by you. ] said Fred. [It was you who said that the yellow card should be as ridiculous as possible. ] George muttered, he probably didn't expect Ravenclaw to join the game.
【Do you know that there are three basic movements in Tarantella dance? 】The girl put down the book in her hand, looked around, and her eyes fell on George, 【Would you like to demonstrate with me? 】
Ron watched all this with interest.George scratched his head, realizing that he couldn't refuse the girl's invitation under any circumstances, so he stood up and took her hand, and the two of them stepped onto the long table together, with Fred and other busybodies shouting behind them .
George's expression has never been more positive than it is now. He waved his hands and kicked his legs stiffly following Luna's instructions, making everyone laugh.In order to turn the situation around, he intentionally made some strange gestures to ask Luna to cooperate, but Luna was always at ease, even though her movements were also very funny, with her cloudy eyes, there was a kind of cuteness of a little girl when she was sleepwalking.Ron thought she was oddly cute. [General tricks are completely useless to her, she seems to live in her own world, George must be very frustrated. ] He couldn't help thinking.
Luna and George returned to their seats, and she turned the pointer.The red circle formed by the rapid rotation became lighter and lighter, and it slid tremblingly towards the direction of Harry and Ron. Ron held his breath, but luckily the arrow left Harry's shoulder at the last second, and was facing the black-haired girl beside him .
【Oh——】When Qiu Zhang looked at Harry with a smile, everyone booed tacitly, and even Hermione grinned and applauded the two of them.Qiu Zhang chose to tell the truth, the girl probably didn't want to repeat Luna's mistake, and no one paid attention to the exchange of eyes between Fred and George.
Blue playing cards fly to the brunette girl. [Say the name of the person you like. 】Ron read out the words on the card, laughed and put his arms around Harry's shoulders. He knew this was a crucial step, and Harry hadn't confirmed his relationship with Qiu Zhang yet.
The girl's face slowly turned red, she looked at Harry shyly, and said the expected name.At this moment, everyone was ready to get up and play tricks on Miracle Boy, but Harry's face was not quite right.Suddenly, they realized, the cards hadn't returned to their original positions.It hung silently in front of the girl, as if waiting for her to add to her answer.
Yes, Gemini said at the beginning of the game that cards can detect lies.Just as the girl's face began to turn pale, the cards flew back, as if everything just now was just a prank.
Late laughter broke out from the crowd, but this was not so much a congratulations as a need to ease the atmosphere. [This is a new product that is still in the experiment, it is possible that it is a little slow. ] Fred and George said so, and the smile appeared on Harry's face again.Ron hoped that was a reasonable explanation, otherwise, what on earth were the cards waiting for the girl to say, and Harry wasn't the only one she had in mind?It's not fair to Harry.
The next one was transferred to Neville. His simple question was quickly skipped, and the red pointer was turned again, tirelessly tugging at the heartstrings of everyone present.
The harmonious atmosphere in the lounge completely relaxed Ron's nervousness.He realized that although Gemini's big adventure would be embarrassing, it was within the acceptable range.Just as he was concentrating on unpacking the strange-flavored beans, Harry smiled and pushed him, [Look ahead of you, Ron.This time it's your turn. 】
【big Adventure. 】He said without looking up.
The cards flew in slowly, and the players froze for a second, then quickly became agitated. Ron raised his head puzzled.
[Please exchange a real kiss with anyone around you. 】
Ron let go of Strange Bean's hand, stiffened his body and looked to his left and right: the black-haired boy and the brown-haired boy, Harry and Justin.Merlin!They're both boys, Ron opened his mouth in confusion, wait, he should be glad it's not a girl, but
[Wait, I don't quite understand. ] Harry took a step back, 【Why do you want to do something? 】
[Of course it's for you. ] Riddle's expression loosened a bit, 【Everything is to bring you here, Harry Potter.I was at Weasley's at first, and I figured he'd fall for me sooner or later and recommend me to you...but there was a slight glitch and I wasted a lot of time listening to this Mudblood crap.Fortunately, you finally came. 】
【What are you looking for me for? ] Harry asked, he finally realized that the opponent in front of him was not easy to deal with, and he had other plans.
[Ask you one thing. 】Riddle’s figure floated around them, and every time he said a word, the expression on his face became frenzied, 【Tell me——how an ordinary baby, who doesn’t know magic at all, defeated the greatest wizard of this century of?I mean - how did you, Harry Potter, escape from Voldemort and be safe, only to have his powers destroyed? 】
[What does this have to do with you?Voldemort came many years after your death. ] Harry responded coldly.
Misty laughter greeted in the stone room. [Voldemort...and Tom Riddle...] He repeated the two names softly and repeatedly, 【Don't you understand, Harry Potter?Voldemort is my past, present and future...]
☆、Chapter41 Tom Riddle(2)
He stretched out his finger and drew his name in the air, and then with a light wave, the letters of [TomMarvoloRiddle] were rearranged and became [IAmLordVoldemort]
[Voldemort is the name I named myself,] He smiled, as if telling someone else's story, [My mother is the last descendant of the Gaunt family and a pure-blood descendant of Salazar Slytherin.Do you think I'd be willing to use my dirty Muggle father's name knowing all this? Voldemort... VOLEDEMORT (French: Flying away from death)... What a beautiful name, the moment I wrote it, I knew that one day, I would become the greatest wizard in the world. 】
Riddle's black eyes showed intoxication, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, like creases on white paper, with a trace of sternness and pretentiousness lightly folded into it.
[You are wrong, Tom Riddle.Dumbledore is the greatest wizard in the world. 】Harry emphasized his real name, and his next words made the phantom on the opposite side even more angry.Under the faint white light, Riddle's handsome face was distorted, and blood-like red light flashed in his eyes: 【No!I……】
He didn't say what he wanted to say, but a sudden singing interrupted him.Ron raised his head, and a crimson bird descended from the sky, circling above their heads, and its song was scattered like fireworks, instantly filling the entire stone chamber.Ron had never heard such a bird song, so ethereal and ethereal, he seemed to see the forest and the gurgling stream in the morning, the blue sky enveloped the stone chamber, and the elves shuttled and bathed during it, everything was filled with a mysterious and holy atmosphere.Its voice became higher and higher, and Ron felt that life in his chest was waking up, and his whole body was full of vitality and courage again.On the contrary, Riddle covered his chest with his hands, and the light around him became weaker and weaker.
[It's Fox.Dumbledore's Phoenix. ] Harry said happily, and Riddle frowned and hissed because of Dumbledore's name.Together Ron and Harry looked up to Fawkes expectantly, hoping it would bring Dumbledore's instructions.However, Fox just kept circling, and after flying for a while, it let go of its claws and threw the Sorting Hat into Harry's arms.
Harry and Ron looked at each other.Riddle laughed wildly, and the initial tension was swept away: [This is what the "Greatest Wizard" can give you-a singing bird and a broken hat, well, I allow you Use it on my snake. 】Before Harry could say anything, he heard a deep hollow cry, and the mouth of the Slytherin stone statue grew slowly, forming a bottomless deep hole.In that deep hole - with a hissing sound, something swam forward.
Dust fell from the top of their heads, and all the stone pillars shook violently with the action of that thing. The stone chamber was bouncing up and down like a boat in a storm. Ron was unsteady on his feet and fell on the sloping ground. Sliding away, his back hit the foot of the stone pillar heavily.Riddle waved again, and Harry and Ron's wands flew into the air.Fox's chirping became more intense, "Don't disappoint Dumbledore," Riddle said, "I think with his help, you don't need a wand anymore. 】Just after he finished the last word, two glowing eyes protruded from the deep hole, and a huge snake head appeared. It landed slowly and crawled towards them.
[I can't move my feet. ] Ron said in a panic.The basilisk made him almost forget to breathe, and when he regained consciousness for a while, he realized that his right foot was fixed by the collapsed stone.Harry was sitting not far from him, holding on to the old sorting hat, with a strange expression on his face.
[Did you find anything, Harry? ] Ron crawled forward and asked softly.
[Shut up, Ron. 】Harry stared at the basilisk which was getting closer and closer to them.Ron didn't dare to look anymore, his body was shaking violently, he closed his eyes cowardly, and the body of the basilisk wriggling forward was still imprinted on his cornea.Compared with the snake skin you saw when you came in, it was even bigger, treacherous, slippery, and terrifying.The hissing sound approached, and his stomach turned.For the first time, he realized that compared with real death, the deep sense of fear and powerlessness before death was more debilitating.
A scream pierced a hole in his emotions, and a blinding white light exploded in front of his eyes.Ron opened his eyes in surprise, Fox swooped down on the basilisk, pecked at its bright vertical pupils, and black blood spattered everywhere.The basilisk slammed its head on the ground heavily, causing the stone chamber to roll over again.Riddle roared angrily: [No!Get off that bird and smell that boy!Kill him! 】
At the very moment, Harry let go of the sorting hat he was holding tightly, and stretched out his right hand. Only then did Ron see clearly that there was a glowing sword hidden inside, with an egg-sized ruby shining brightly on the hilt. eye-catching.Harry rushed towards the basilisk that was still circling Fox. He stepped on a boulder, swung his sword, and pointed towards its head—but the basilisk turned its head suddenly, and it obviously smelled Harry.
【No! ’ cried Ron.The basilisk opened its huge mouth, and Harry had no time to dodge, the sword only pierced the snake's upper jaw.The basilisk grunted in pain and shook its head violently. Harry's tiny body flew to the side and hit the cold ground.More stones fell, trapping the giant body of the basilisk. The head of the basilisk was lowered wearily, and it fell close to Ron. He could clearly see its deep mouth and smell a strong smell. of stench.
[Harry—] Ron roared, [Harry—]
No one answered, and the stone chamber seemed to be dead at this time.Fox groaned and landed next to Harry's body.Ron frantically pushed against the rock that was holding down his right foot, but it didn't budge.Before he knew it, tears were already pouring out of his eyes, he felt that his body was overdrawn by anger and grief, and the endless exhaustion almost crushed him.
Riddle laughed, and his laughter sprang up from all directions like vines, gnawing at Ron's hands and feet. [Today is Harry Potter's death day. 】He said.
[You are talking nonsense!Harry is not dead! 】
[Yes, he is not dead yet. 】Riddle said contemptuously,【But it's too soon. 】His black eyes were covered by long eyelashes, and he glanced at the agitated Ron and the basilisk indifferently, revealing a strange smile.
[Ron Weasley, you are a pure-blood, I intend to give you a chance. 】
【What? ] roared Ron, who couldn't believe what Riddle was saying.
【I said, I want to give you a chance. ] Riddle smiled even more, he spread his arms, 【You also saw that Harry Potter passed out, and my snake was only slightly injured.It could end Potter's life at my command. 】He continued slowly: 【However, if you can kill Harry Potter with that sword for me, I will spare your life. 】
[This is simply ridiculous!How could I kill Harry? 】
[You have no other choice. 】Compared to Ron, Riddle seemed calm and composed, he even crossed his arms, 【You don't have a weapon, my basilisk can attack as long as it takes a short rest, it's only a matter of time.If you know how to seize the opportunity to show loyalty, you can live... Otherwise, you can only die with him. 】
Ron's head had never worked so fast, not even during final exams.He had to admit that Riddle was right. Judging from the current situation, Harry and his life were in Riddle's hands. As long as Riddle wanted, he could command the sword to kill them now, or wait quietly. The basilisks recovered and their wands were under his control.If he wanted to survive, he could only follow Riddle's instructions.
But how could he kill Harry? !Ron subconsciously pressed the necklace around his neck, and said to himself silently in his heart: 【It will be fine if you go back to the time when you first entered the stone room. ] But nothing happened. [Perhaps the time disorder just now was really an illusion. ] he thought desperately.
[TictokTictok——] Riddle happily imitated the sound of the clock running, 【Your time is running out.Reveal the answer in your heart. 】Beside him, the basilisk began to hiss and growl, and its vertical eyes aimed at Ron.
No, wait, something is wrong.Ron forced himself to calm down.What does Hermione say every time you review before the exam? [Guess the intention of the questioner. 】That's right, he shouldn't always think about things from his own point of view, he should also think about the other party - why does the insidious and cunning Riddle do such a thankless thing?Unless, the truth of the matter is not as he originally thought... Unless he is not completely weak!
If Harry's injury took away half of his fear ([It's the way it is anyway, I can't do anything worse.] he consoled himself), this thought took away the other half.He looked back at the basilisk that made him shudder, forcing himself to examine every inch of its skin.At this moment, a sharp bolt of lightning crashed into his mind, and he discovered something.
【I don't understand why you waste your time. ] Riddle took another step back towards the basilisk, the smile on his face restrained a little.
[I won't do this. 】Ron said loudly,【Harry is my best friend, we come from glorious Gryffindor.If you are so evil, kill us immediately. ] After finishing speaking, he stared at Riddle's eyes, and finally found a little looseness in them. At this moment, his heart was slightly relieved.Riddle's performance showed that his guess was probably right.
Suspicion flashed across Riddle's face. [Do you know what price you will pay for your stupidity?I rarely give others a chance, would you rather die than join the Slytherin camp?Dumbledore is not here. When he finds out, you are already a cold corpse. No one can see your so-called justice. Wake up, Weasley. 】
【You are really good at coaxing people, Riddle. 】Ron glanced at him,【Death and being with the heir of Slytherin, I do choose the former.However, if I choose the latter, I am afraid I will die faster. 】
[Your snake is not as healthy as you said, it can't get out of the stone pile.It has fatal wounds, otherwise, why do you keep standing in front of its left abdomen? 】
Riddle restrained his smile, [very interesting guess,] he said coolly, [but even if my snake fails, you still control it for me, don't you? 】
【no.From the beginning, the only chip you have prepared for yourself is this basilisk, you are too arrogant. 】Ron said firmly, 【Remember what you said when we entered the door?You say you're just a memory, so you can't move Fenriely.That being the case, how can you handle swords and wands? 】
Riddle's smile disappeared completely.
Ron went on to say: [You just wrote in the air and hung our wands in the air, which made me almost forget that you are just a memory, and you are just using the energy left by Voldemort in the diary.You can't actually pick up your wand and yell the Killing Curse.You can't bear the cry of a phoenix, let alone wield the sword of Gryffindor.You tempted me with the words of joining Slytherin, but you hope that I will be obsessed with you and surrender to you, so that you can control my body again and control the sword through me.But I won't be fooled by you a second time. 】
For the first time, Ron felt a lion roaring inside him, the real Lion of Gryffindor.He wanted to scold himself, how could he forget the most important thing because of fear?Hasn't Riddle been manipulating fearful people to work for him all this time?He is just a memory, how could he ever have the ability to do evil himself!
【hehe. ] After a long time, Riddle laughed softly, 【Maybe you are right.But I still have a lot of advantages over you after all. ] He raised his hand again, and a piercing pain hit Ron's chest, and he couldn't help but exclaimed.
【It is true that I don't have much energy, but I can still torture you to death before other people arrive. 】His eyes glowed again, 【You know what?Besides the Killing Curse, I have many ways to inflict pain. 】
[You must not be intimidated by him. ] Ron gritted his teeth.What Riddle threw at him was a physical and psychological test. He had reason to believe that once fear resurfaced in his heart, Riddle would seize this opportunity to seize control of his body and stab the sword into Harry's heart , he must not let this happen.
His vision gradually blurred, and he looked in Harry's direction in a daze.Now, Merlin!He seemed...he seemed to see Harry's body move!The phoenix soared up and screamed excitedly.Its glistening tears kept dripping down Harry's body, and Harry straightened up and stood up.Just when Riddle loosened his grip on Ron and was about to attack Harry, Ron had time to shout: [Harry, diary! 】
The diary was in Harry's hand, and he snatched it away.Riddle's inability to control the diary because he was a part of it was yet another blunder on his part.His whole body burst into dazzling white light, his handsome face was ferocious, and he tried to use his little strength to throw everything at one basket. 【Fox! ’ cried Harry.The phoenix scooped up Harry with its claws, took him away from Riddle's fatal blow, and flew over the snake's mouth.Harry pulled the sword from the basilisk's mouth, lowered the diary in his hand, and aimed at the snake's fangs.
[No——] At the last moment before losing consciousness, Ron heard Riddle's hysterical roar. 【I finally didn't get controlled by him for the second time.Maybe one of the worst things Lucius Malfoy ever did was let me get the diary early. ] Thinking of this, he completely fainted.
☆、Chapter42 The magic card game before leaving school (1)
Although he was injured again before the summer vacation, when Ron saw Hermione again in front of the Hogwarts dining room door, he felt that all the efforts of Harry and himself were extremely worthwhile.Justin Fletcher smiled at him from the other long table, and he was that goofy Hufflepuff again.
【Harry, tell me, how did you defeat that unmentionable person? ] Seamus and Dean squeezed into the trio and sat down with great difficulty. Obviously, they didn't notice that Ron was also among the adventurers, but this time, Ron didn't feel uncomfortable.He thought it was because, now that he was fully convinced that he had a Gryffindor lion inside him, he had become more confident.
[I poked the diary with the basilisk fangs, and the memory of Tom Riddle was destroyed.I must thank Ron, if he hadn't subdued Riddle temporarily, I would have been killed before I woke up. ] Ron looked back in surprise, Harry's green eyes were flickering at him.
[Ron?You... you subdued Tom Riddle? 】
【Tom Riddle is not alone," Ron explained helplessly, 【He is just a memory that Voldemort once stored in his diary. As long as he doesn't control his will, he can't deal with you. 】
Seamus and Dean's eyes widened. 【what happens?Why are you looking at me like that? ] He looked at Harry questioningly.
[Ron,] Harry coughed twice on purpose, with a smile in his eyes, [You said 'Voldemort', which scared Seamus and Dean. 】
Hearing these words, Ron himself was stunned.But a month ago, he had carefully told Harry not to call him by that name, and a sincere smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: [Yeah, I plan to call him that from now on, Harry. 】
Just as Dumbledore announced this year's House Cup winner, Ron's eyes wandered over the dining room to meet someone's eyes.The man still had brand-new robes and a well-groomed hairstyle. Ron smiled at him, gently raised his injured arm to prove his heroic behavior, but in exchange for the other party's stare, and the eyes that quickly moved away .He looked downcast. [Fortunately, the summer vacation is here, otherwise he might have to talk about it for a week.It's not that I'm stupid, it's just that the academy that slanders me is not as stable as his. ] Ron thought with some gratitude, but at the same time felt sad, yes, another school year is over, and they will be in the third grade next year.
When Dumbledore said Gryffindor's name, there was a startling cheer from the long table in the Court of Lions, and Ron didn't miss the smile that quickly faded from the corner of his lover's mouth.More students flocked to him and Harry, and Harry was quickly picked up and thrown. The twins tried to hug their younger brother and turn them around. Ron almost climbed onto the dining table, and they were discouraged. The professors stood in front of the stage, watching with smiles.When Ron was finally thrown high by the crowd, he watched the rising and falling golden ceiling, and a firework exploded in his heart.
The night before returning home is always crazy and enjoyable.The door of every dormitory in Gryffindor was wide open, and the students were scurrying around in the room full of laughter, [Is my mirror with you? ] or 【Thank you for lending me the Notes for Transfiguration Class】.Ron didn't like packing, and he wasn't very good at it. He was always awkwardly arranging clothes one by one on the bed and folding them slowly.
【Harry, you are really good at tidying up. ] He said while fiddling with the sleeves of his college shirt, 【Every kind of clothes folds differently, and I can only wrap them in a ball, why did my mother forget to teach me the spell to fold clothes? 】
[Are you going to rely on spells for everything in the future? ] Harry reluctantly closed his suitcase and stepped forward to help him. [Good Harry Potter. 】 Ron deliberately teased him, Harry elbowed him, and they all laughed.
[Why are you still hiding in the dormitory? 】Seamore's face appeared at the door, and he pointed in the direction of the common room in surprise, 【Everyone broke out, and Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw students also came.Everyone should share the snacks stored this semester, if you don't go, they will be robbed. ] After finishing speaking, he seemed to remind himself, and hurriedly disappeared by the door.
Ron and Harry looked at each other, silently speeding up their progress. [I didn't expect the other two colleges to come here, which is quite interesting. I haven't made friends with people from other colleges, except for Justin. ] Ron said, and suddenly he remembered something, [Hey, Harry, will Cho Chang come too? 】
【She will. 】Harry said in an affirmative tone,【When we met yesterday, I asked her out. 】
Ron felt a little complicated in his heart.Maybe it's because the best friend is about to witness a love affair, maybe it's because Draco Malfoy will never show up in the Gryffindor common room. 【Oh, great, you have to be careful not to be teased to death by Gemini, I will do the same. ] He blinked.
Ron didn't expect to see Justin Finlayry in the lounge. The curly-haired boy was devastated by the diary. Ron thought he would stay with Madam Pomfrey to recuperate.The boy also saw him and waved to him shyly.Ron looked to the other side following Harry's indicated eyes. A beautiful girl with black hair and black eyes was chatting with Hermione in an armchair. Oh, that was Qiu Zhang, Ravenclaw's garden flower. Harry was indeed lucky boy.Ron raised an eyebrow at Harry, and the two walked in different directions.
【Hey, are you feeling better?I thought you wouldn't come. ] Ron imitated Justin and sat on the rug by the fireplace.
【not bad. ] Ron could hear the boy's voice was still a little weak, 【Thank you and Harry for saving me. 】He stared at his wound carefully, 【I remember you are always getting hurt. 】
[Haha, it seems to be true. 】Ron tried to move his arm, the potion had already taken effect, he untied the bandage wrapped around it and put it aside, 【Fortunately, Madam Pomfrey's magic is superb. 】
【deeply appreciated. ] Justin's brown eyes flickered for a moment, and Ron felt he had something to say to himself.He waited for a while, but the boy pursed his lips, and finally said nothing.Compared to the hustle and bustle on Harry's side, there were few people around the fireplace, and the atmosphere seemed a bit lonely.
[Well, why don't we go over there and have a look? ] Ron scratched his hair in embarrassment, and Justin seemed relieved: [Okay, let's go. 】
Ron and Justin joined the "armchair club" and sat next to Harry, with Cho Chang and Hermione on the other side of Harry.And on Hermione's left sat two unfamiliar faces that Ron had never seen before, and they were all Ravenclaws from the school uniforms.The girl has blond hair and blue eyes, with wandering eyes, while the boy has brown hair and brown eyes, fair face, and a few freckles near the bridge of the nose, which made Ron feel a calm and quiet temperament.
He held out his hand to both of them. [Hi, I'm Ron Weasley. 】
[Hello,] The girl's ethereal voice was incompatible with the atmosphere of the whole lounge. When she looked up at him, the slack pupils made Ron think that there was a ghost behind him. [I'm Luna Lovegood.Your hair is beautiful, like a flame. 】
There was Harry's low laugh.Ron's face was hot, and he turned to the other person at a loss: [Hello. 】
[Hello, Rolf Scamander, Ravenclaw. ] The boy answered briefly.Hermione, who was a seat away from him, said that they all knew each other from the society she founded in Ravenclaw.
[Luna and I belong to the Society of Fantastic Beasts. ] said Scamander.
[Rolf's grandfather is Newt Scamander. ] Hermione told Ron and Harry in an exclamation tone, 【He is the author of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them". 】Her face turned pale pink due to excitement, and just as Ron was about to say something, he was slapped vigorously on the left and right shoulders, and he turned his head angrily—yes, two redheads.
[The last madness before the holiday! ] Fred slipped the candy from Ron's hand into his pocket, and threw something into his arms before he jumped up. [What's the fun in eating snacks? ([Then you give me back the candy!] said Ron.) Why not try the Weasley brothers' party favors? 】
【What's this? 】Ron and Harry got together and opened the colorful glittering cardboard box. Dozens of yellow or blue playing cards eagerly flew out of it, neatly arranged in a circle in the air.
[We haven't given it a name yet, this is the latest product, we got inspiration from a Muggle game. 】Fred and George hooked up shoulder to shoulder,【Blue card tells the truth, yellow card takes risks.Choose one, then answer the questions or fulfill the adventure as required, be careful, you will be punished by cards if you don't do it well enough.Cards can test lies~]
Seeing the way his brothers looked at each other and smiling, Ron already had a premonition that this was a malicious game. [I think eating snacks and chatting is good,] Ron retorted, looking around the crowd as he spoke, sure that someone would come out and agree.Hmm... Wait, why even Hermione seemed hesitant to speak, he was absolutely right, Cho Chang blushed, and Harry looked uncomfortable but didn't say anything.
Everyone clearly wants to play this game?Ron silently hugged the cardboard box in his arms. Even if he only had "a teaspoon of emotion", he could sense the ambiguous atmosphere fermenting over the lounge.Merlin, this is simply a disaster. He looked at Justin helplessly, and was surprised to find that the boy's expression was similar to his, showing distress. The difference was that the boy's earlobes were red.
[So, everyone joins? 】Fred was the first to notice Ron's hesitation, and put his arm around his shoulders, 【The absolute rule of this game is——】
[Those who have secrets must participate! ] George answered.
[Can't people who don't have secrets participate? ] The ethereal voice flew towards George, Luna asked with wide blue eyes, as if she had just woken up, she observed the expressions of Qiu Zhang and Harry with a puzzled face, making Harry blush.
[Of course, girl. 】George stepped forward, added two chairs between her and Scamander, entered the game with Fred, gloated at the golden trio on the opposite side, approached her and said,【People without secrets only need In charge of the theater. 】
[Are you the same as me? ] Luna quietly watched Fred drag the chair to Angelina's side silently, 【Because you don't have anyone you like? 】
George was choked by her for a long time, and Ron almost laughed out loud.Even Fred couldn't easily deflate George. He himself had only been teased at home, which made the scene in front of him all the more precious.
Well, it's just a game.Ron shrank back into the soft armchair, signaling his compromise with gestures. [If the magic card asks questions about love, it will be punished at worst.Anyway, I will never reveal the secret. ] As he thought about it, he smiled and looked at the couples around him who were still in the trial stage.
【Among the people sitting here, the one who only has a teaspoon of emotion is definitely not me. 】He thought lazily, 【Can't people with secrets watch a good show? 】
☆、Chapter43 Secret
After a brief debate, more than a dozen students joined the Gemini game.As the promoter, Fred took the lead in drawing cards. He chose the truth, and the blue magic card asked him about the three things he hated the most.
[Can you only say three things? ] Fred groaned strangely, you could tell he was racking his brains, [OWLs exams, Filch and Mom's corned beef sandwiches. 】
[You don't like corned beef either! 】Ron said in surprise, 【I thought you like to eat, and mom always cooks it. 】
【Merlin, it's George who likes to eat, but Mom can't tell us apart. 】Fred winked, 【Well, I also hate being "distinguishable". 】
[But I also like it very much. ] George bumps him.The blue card got a relatively satisfactory answer, and returned to its original position obediently.The yellow and blue magic cards began to rotate in different clockwise directions, and they were automatically shuffled.Fred fiddled with the pointer in the center of the crowd, and the red arrow pointed to Luna.
[I want to try yellow. ] She said, shaking her feet, and picked a card that was far away from her.The yellow card jumped in front of her: [Please stand on the long table in the lounge and imitate Tarantella's dance steps. 】
Ron twitched his lips, not daring to imagine how the blonde girl would deal with the situation in front of her.Will she ask for a redraw?Or embarrassingly do what the cards ask?The long table is now in the center of the lounge, and the Tarantella dance moves are hilarious.
Fred and George looked at each other. [This piece was definitely written by you. ] said Fred. [It was you who said that the yellow card should be as ridiculous as possible. ] George muttered, he probably didn't expect Ravenclaw to join the game.
【Do you know that there are three basic movements in Tarantella dance? 】The girl put down the book in her hand, looked around, and her eyes fell on George, 【Would you like to demonstrate with me? 】
Ron watched all this with interest.George scratched his head, realizing that he couldn't refuse the girl's invitation under any circumstances, so he stood up and took her hand, and the two of them stepped onto the long table together, with Fred and other busybodies shouting behind them .
George's expression has never been more positive than it is now. He waved his hands and kicked his legs stiffly following Luna's instructions, making everyone laugh.In order to turn the situation around, he intentionally made some strange gestures to ask Luna to cooperate, but Luna was always at ease, even though her movements were also very funny, with her cloudy eyes, there was a kind of cuteness of a little girl when she was sleepwalking.Ron thought she was oddly cute. [General tricks are completely useless to her, she seems to live in her own world, George must be very frustrated. ] He couldn't help thinking.
Luna and George returned to their seats, and she turned the pointer.The red circle formed by the rapid rotation became lighter and lighter, and it slid tremblingly towards the direction of Harry and Ron. Ron held his breath, but luckily the arrow left Harry's shoulder at the last second, and was facing the black-haired girl beside him .
【Oh——】When Qiu Zhang looked at Harry with a smile, everyone booed tacitly, and even Hermione grinned and applauded the two of them.Qiu Zhang chose to tell the truth, the girl probably didn't want to repeat Luna's mistake, and no one paid attention to the exchange of eyes between Fred and George.
Blue playing cards fly to the brunette girl. [Say the name of the person you like. 】Ron read out the words on the card, laughed and put his arms around Harry's shoulders. He knew this was a crucial step, and Harry hadn't confirmed his relationship with Qiu Zhang yet.
The girl's face slowly turned red, she looked at Harry shyly, and said the expected name.At this moment, everyone was ready to get up and play tricks on Miracle Boy, but Harry's face was not quite right.Suddenly, they realized, the cards hadn't returned to their original positions.It hung silently in front of the girl, as if waiting for her to add to her answer.
Yes, Gemini said at the beginning of the game that cards can detect lies.Just as the girl's face began to turn pale, the cards flew back, as if everything just now was just a prank.
Late laughter broke out from the crowd, but this was not so much a congratulations as a need to ease the atmosphere. [This is a new product that is still in the experiment, it is possible that it is a little slow. ] Fred and George said so, and the smile appeared on Harry's face again.Ron hoped that was a reasonable explanation, otherwise, what on earth were the cards waiting for the girl to say, and Harry wasn't the only one she had in mind?It's not fair to Harry.
The next one was transferred to Neville. His simple question was quickly skipped, and the red pointer was turned again, tirelessly tugging at the heartstrings of everyone present.
The harmonious atmosphere in the lounge completely relaxed Ron's nervousness.He realized that although Gemini's big adventure would be embarrassing, it was within the acceptable range.Just as he was concentrating on unpacking the strange-flavored beans, Harry smiled and pushed him, [Look ahead of you, Ron.This time it's your turn. 】
【big Adventure. 】He said without looking up.
The cards flew in slowly, and the players froze for a second, then quickly became agitated. Ron raised his head puzzled.
[Please exchange a real kiss with anyone around you. 】
Ron let go of Strange Bean's hand, stiffened his body and looked to his left and right: the black-haired boy and the brown-haired boy, Harry and Justin.Merlin!They're both boys, Ron opened his mouth in confusion, wait, he should be glad it's not a girl, but
