Chapter 67 Seeing the Ring Again

It was undoubtedly a shock.Harry thought he had done a good job of keeping the secrets secret, but he didn't expect that there would be a mistake at the very beginning.Fred and George didn't know that name corresponded to Voldemort; luckily they didn't, so they didn't say it.He's going to be in trouble if this gets out - how to explain Voldemort by his side?And together all the time?Even if this matter can be fooled, the next thing they have to do will become very difficult.

Harry did have the idea of ​​going to Hogsmeade at first, but not at all now.He just wanted to go somewhere else to relax, but if his preparations didn't look so perfect—that he wouldn't be discovered at any time, anywhere—then he'd better stay in the tower.On the one hand, he was not like before, never been to Hogsmeade; on the other hand, he had more important things to think about.And the thing he wants to do the most right now is undoubtedly to get rid of that person, so he has to prepare himself first; not to mention that it is safe, at least there shouldn't be such a big mistake.

Harry spent the rest of the day plotting in his mind how to explain this to the twins so they would never mention it to anyone else.Fortunately, he had an excuse—according to Hogwarts regulations, each student could only bring one pet, and it was impossible for Hedwig to be stuffed in his clothes all the time.He still doesn't know when the twins found out about it, but seeing that they only officially mentioned it today, he probably thought it was a particularly timid mole.And their attitude at least showed that they didn't think it was strange that Harry had a little secret, and they didn't have the curiosity to pry it out.

"What do you think I call you?" Harry thought he should be able to persuade the two brothers to help him keep the secrecy, so he asked Voldemort by the way.The other party is so picky, who knows which sentence will make him unhappy?

"I wonder what you just thought of," said Voldemort. "I guess it's not a particularly fine animal."

Harry was about to say how the mole was doing, but choked at the words.There was no doubt that Voldemort could never have liked being treated like a rat.Then suddenly he had a flash of inspiration and said, "A snake!"

Voldemort was silent for a few seconds, as if regretting that he had spoken so soon that he had prompted Harry.Finally he reluctantly admitted: "...that's it."

Harry could hear the reluctance in his tone and almost laughed.He just said, he must have been able to guess a little bit of the other party's meaning!Then he asked again: "Why didn't you come out today? There is no one else now."

"What do you want me to do humanly?" Voldemort asked rhetorically.Although he is not willing to keep himself in the state of the locket all the time, but to get rid of the transformation spell, he needs to use magic power to fight against it, and he does not intend to waste his own power when it is unnecessary.Obviously, Harry probably didn't understand the joints, so he asked this kind of question.

And indeed it is.After asking, Harry realized that Voldemort didn't change, not only because there were no other people around, but also because he was still restricted, so he couldn't help touching his nose in embarrassment.What happened recently made him completely forget this point—think about it, the Order of the Phoenix is ​​still busy looking for clues to be able to control the external situation in this state!

Then Harry thought of another point. It was an emergency when he fell into the lake, and Voldemort conjured him up to save him. It could be said that he took into account the constraints of living and dying together; but what about the day before Halloween?Going to great lengths just for an expected, rough kiss and some particularly nasty words?The direction is completely wrong...

Harry actually laughed out loud this time.If anyone could see his expression now, they would definitely feel that he was just smirking.It's a pity that Voldemort, the only one present, was still in his bag and couldn't see this scene. "Is this your answer? Have you been given the Imperius Curse?"

"No." Harry pinched his face, trying not to show any special expression.He hadn't forgotten that he was going to compete with Voldemort for being more calm.But even so, he still couldn't hold back and asked again: "Are you really not going to come out?"

If Voldemort was just a little doubtful before, now the doubt has become certainty.The boy probably thought of something... "Don't think too much on your own." He reminded.In fact, after staying with Harry for a long time, he can almost guess the movement of Harry's mind, but this kind of thing - laughing inexplicably - has never happened before.He doesn't want to go out, what's there to laugh about?

"Well, if you say that." Harry heard what he meant, and didn't force it.But this requires him to tell himself over and over again in his heart that he has to see the development of the situation before making a decision.If the other party becomes a human now, he may not know what he will do, so it is better to wait until he is calmer.Thinking back to the situation last time, he didn't want to make it look like he couldn't wait to pounce on it.

However, his reaction made Voldemort silently label today's savior as "very suspicious".Under normal circumstances, shouldn't Harry's reaction at this point be to retort angrily, "I didn't think too much about it!"?

The day after the Hogsmeade weekend was the Christmas holiday, and most of the students went home.In the past, Harry didn't want to go back to Privet Drive, so Ron and Hermione often stayed with him at school.But now it's different, he can go back to 12 Grimmauld Place.There is Sirius there, and you can carefully inquire about the progress of the Order of the Phoenix.Besides, he remembered Voldemort telling him last time they had to go to Gringotts - Diagon Alley was easier to get to from 12 Grimmauld Place than Hogwarts, at least there was no castle there various restrictions.

"Don't do anything to the Order of the Phoenix!" Harry warned Voldemort in the lowest voice before boarding the train so that no one else could hear him.Now that the opponent's strength has recovered, he doubts it. If Voldemort is not hindered from breaking through the restrictions of the god of death, he would definitely prefer to go to other places to carry out his plan by himself.However, given that the current meeting place of the Order of the Phoenix is ​​at 12 Grimmauld Place, Voldemort may not want to bother to leave because of a plan.He can no matter what Voldemort does secretly, but the premise of all this is that no one can be hurt under his nose.

"They?" Voldemort sneered lazily, "Let's find my people first."

Harry has now learned a new skill, which is to automatically replace what Voldemort says.For example, in the sentence just now, before changing it, he must have felt that Voldemort was insinuating his incompetence; but now, he directly translated it as "I will not touch them for the time being".For the time being, let’s just say it for the time being. Anyway, if we really want to talk about it, seven years is also temporary.Harry decided not to entangle Voldemort with words, but to think about other things: "Is it done with you? When are we going to Gringotts?"

Voldemort's tone became a little more serious. "Anytime," he said, "better hurry." The ring had a sense of autonomy after he dealt with the main soul, which he hadn't expected at all before.That being said, his creation of Horcruxes was useful, but not at all in the way he wanted them to be.That's why it made him feel a little troublesome, and at the same time, he couldn't help but pay attention to the last Horcrux besides the ring.Because with this done, he can fully deal with the ring.

Harry didn't quite understand his last sentence, he thought Voldemort was bored at Hogwarts. "Okay then, I'll try my best." He agreed, thinking that Sirius is not a wanted criminal now, and there must be time to go out, so it shouldn't be difficult.

This opportunity will come soon.Two days after Christmas Eve is the night of the full moon, and Sirius is ready to go out again.He had done this kind of thing so much that he couldn't hide it anymore, so he could only tell Harry the truth before he went.Lupine was already a werewolf before he entered Hogwarts. He, James and others had been taking care of him when he was transformed, controlling him not to bite, and it is the same now.He had wanted to talk to Harry a long time ago, but Lupine was so worried that he had put it off until now.

Harry had known this for a long time, and his expression was not at all surprised. "Actually, I guessed a little bit..." He said a lie.He wasn't nearly as perceptive as that, but Hermione had been able to guess this on her own before, so he didn't think Sirius and Lupine would be suspicious if he said it now.

Sirius showed a "really so" look. "Have I told you, Remus? Harry, like James, won't mind your little furry question." He said proudly.

Lupine's eyes were a little wet. "Thank you for understanding, Harry." He'd always been very concerned that he was a werewolf.This is a big flaw when looking for a job, so he has been poor and unable to take care of himself.After Sirius came out of Azkaban, he was only slightly better off.This kind of friend who just popped up later, he blushed for himself, thinking that this was not a qualified friend.Sirius didn't blame him, he was already very happy; now that Harry said the same, he was undoubtedly very touched.

"Then we've agreed." Sirius said, "for your safety, no one will come here recently. I've already prepared the things you need, and let Kreacher do whatever you want. Wait for me and Remus is back, let's take you to Arthur's house and play Quidditch, shall we?"

Harry understood that this meant to keep him quiet.He nodded, feeling happy in his heart: "I see." Sirius revealed a very important news, and no one from the Order of the Phoenix would come—this opportunity was even better than he imagined.

As soon as they left, Harry told Kreacher to stay in his room and not to disturb him.Then he stomped upstairs, ready to Apparate for the locket.There must have been a protective spell over the gate, and he could have just flown out of his window - the Floo Network was monitored by the Ministry of Magic, so it certainly couldn't be used at this time.But as soon as he opened the door, he saw someone standing in front of the window with his back turned to him.

"You know again?" Harry originally wanted to make this a surprise, but now he just felt a little frustrated when he saw Voldemort.

"I haven't passed my days yet," Voldemort replied.He glanced back at Harry and couldn't help smiling at the not-quite-cleared look of frustration. "Let's go."

Harry stared at his outstretched hand.Was Voldemort going to Apparate with him?Although he was full of reluctance and felt that he could lead people away by himself, he still moved over.This matter can be discussed later, and time cannot be wasted now.

But Harry was slightly wrong.Just when he put his hand on the opponent's hand, he suddenly felt that the thing in front of him grew rapidly.He didn't recover for a moment, and when he woke up, he found himself trapped on a finger. "You...you..." He was almost speechless.Why he turned into a ring!

"It's okay to talk now. But be careful when there are other people. You know that, don't you?" Voldemort's voice was smiling, and then Harry's vision went dark—sleeves fell, his vision blocked.

"But why do you do that!" Harry almost snarled when he realized he didn't know how to resolve the Transfiguration Charm.Can't the two go in together?Even if his face is not suitable to appear in Diagon Alley at this time, there is no need to turn him into an object, right?
