Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

“If you are not going to use Legilimency on her, then leave quickly, she makes me feel uncomfortable,” said Riddle.

“Don’t rush to leave, Tom, we need to figure out the current situation and the time we’re in from her,” Evan countered. “Besides, don’t you want to figure out your relationship with her? Or do you already know something?”

“I don’t know anything. It’s easy to figure things out. You’re just complicating simple problems!”

“Oh, that’s what I’m good at.”

Evan’s statement that the girl was Riddle’s daughter was just a joke, but the fact that they looked so much alike was undeniable.

Maybe there really was some connection between her and Riddle.

“Are you looking for a Time-Turner?” He stepped forward into the Time Room and raised his voice.

“How do you know?” The girl stopped, turned around, and looked at Evan warily.

“Because we’re also here looking for a Time-Turner, but we didn’t find one,” Evan replied.

“I knew it; all the Time-Turners were destroyed in that event eighteen years ago.” The girl looked somewhat discouraged. “I recently got some information that the Ministry of Magic has obtained a new Time-Turner, but it seems they didn’t put it here.”

“What do you want the Time-Turner for?”

“Go back to the past to save someone,” the girl narrowed her eyes and looked at Evan and Riddle. “What about you?”

“We also intend to go back in time,” Evan said.

“Then our goals are the same, maybe we can cooperate.” The girl paused.

She still looked skeptical and puzzled, not lowering the wand in her hand.

“What are your names?”

“Before asking someone’s name, shouldn’t you introduce yourself? It’s the most basic courtesy,” Riddle said.

“My name is Delphi,” she simply replied, “Delphi Riddle.”

There was a long silence, and both Evan and Riddle looked at her in surprise, as if they couldn’t believe it.

She was actually Riddle. How was this possible? Was it really like what Evan had said before?

She looked so much like Riddle and had the same name. Was she really Voldemort’s girl?!

“What’s wrong? Is there something wrong with my name?” Delphi asked slowly, noticing something unusual.

“Nothing, this surname is not common…”

“Yeah, a very Muggle-like surname, but I’m proud of it, both my parents are wizards,” said Delphi proudly, raising her wand. “It’s your turn, what’s your name?”

“Evan Mason,” said Evan, pointing to Riddle beside him who seemed to have not yet recovered. “This is…”

“You’re kidding!” he hadn’t finished, but Delphi interrupted. “This joke isn’t funny at all!”

“I’m not kidding,” Evan was stunned for a moment. “That’s indeed my name.”

“Is it? Well, you’re really unfortunate then, sharing a name with the most famous wizard in the world, you’re bound to be mocked by others, living your whole life under his shadow,” Delphi snorted, saying somewhat disdainfully, “You’d better change it, and by the way, I don’t like that name.”

“I quite like it. Although it has the same name as that person, my parents are Muggles and they don’t know anything about the Wizarding World,” said Evan, thinking about himself in the future. Had he really become the most famous wizard in the world?!

Delphi snorted again and pointed at the pale Riddle, “And who are you?”

She had just noticed the resemblance between herself and Riddle, which was why she was extra vigilant.

Evan and Riddle were full of mystery, and she had never expected to meet anyone in the Department of Mysteries.

After all, not just anyone could come here, and in her plan, she wouldn’t encounter anyone…

“He is…” Evan said.

“… Tom Mason!” Riddle interjected directly, looking into Delphi’s eyes, “I’m his cousin.”

“Oh, yeah, he’s my cousin.” Evan’s mouth curled up, and he realized things suddenly got interesting!

Facing Delphi, who was likely to be his daughter, Riddle did not intend to reveal his identity. Was he being shy?

“Evan, Tom, are you both students at Hogwarts?” Delphi continued to ask.

She looked at Riddle’s robes. Fifteen-year-old Riddle had always been dressed like this, with very distinctive features.

Although he could now move without the ring, Evan had never heard of a Horcrux changing clothes.

The only good thing was that the Hogwarts uniform robes style did not seem to have changed.

“Yes, I’m in fourth year and he’s in sixth year,” Evan paused. He knew nothing about the current situation at Hogwarts, not even if classes were in session. He felt it was best not to continue talking about this topic.

But the girl’s question was very subtle; something had to be clarified, or it would be even more dangerous to continue, risking exposure.

“You’re not a Hogwarts student. I’ve never seen you at Hogwarts?”

“I don’t go to that school. I have other ways to learn magic,” said Delphi.

“Well, what about the cooperation you just mentioned?”

“I know some information about the Time-Turner and where it might be,” said Delphi, gently waving her wand. “You both seem strong, and you also need the Time-Turner. We can cooperate to get it, but you have to let me use it first.”

“Since you know the whereabouts of the Time-Turner, why don’t you get it yourself?”

“Because the enemies we may have to face are very strong, and this matter is far more difficult than breaking into the Department of Mysteries,” Delphi replied. “With your help, the possibility of getting the Time-Turner is much greater. What do you think?”

“Sounds good,” Evan glanced at Riddle, who did not object.

He should also be planning to figure out the true identity of this Delphi now.

“Alright, if there are no objections, we need to make an Unbreakable Vow,” Delphi immediately said.

“Unbreakable Vow?” The development of things was getting more and more interesting.

The so-called Unbreakable Vow was a type of binding magical contract cast between two parties, that if broken by either party, would result in the imminent death of whoever broke the contract.

“Yes, to be honest, I don’t trust either of you. Everything from the circumstances of your appearance, your aura, and your names makes me uncomfortable, and I’m sure you both feel the same about me,” Delphi continued. “We lack the most basic trust, and it’s impossible for us to work together to find the Time-Turner, but an Unbreakable Vow can ensure this. I just need to make the vow with one of you…”
