Chapter 60 The Secret of the Horcrux (Second update, please follow up)
Go back to Monday.
Before dealing with the basilisk, Snape called Gretel out on the pretext that he needed Gretel's help with the material.
"How dare you." Snape's expression was a bit complicated, angry, worried and mixed with ferociousness.
"I know it's you. Even if the other professors don't think you are suspicious, I'm still sure it's you. The bottle of polyjuice potion has been used up."
Snape's tone was firm.
Grete did not hide anything, "Yes, I never thought I could hide it from you. The flaw in my plan was that I asked you for the materials I needed for the Polyjuice Potion."
"Aren't you afraid that I will report to Dumbledore?" Snape looked at Gretel with a sinister look, standing in the sunshine.
"No, I believe Professor will not. You and Dumbledore are not of the same mind, as long as what I do does not involve Harry."
Grete shrugged, "Besides, so what if I am reported, the most I can do is be expelled from Hogwarts.
Oh, and there's Azkaban, but do you think Azkaban can contain me?
Especially since that person was still watching covetously outside Hogwarts. "
"Dumbledore is not a kind person. Do you really think he will let Hogwarts have another Dark Lord?"
Snape took a step closer, standing in the shadows, close to the edge of the sunlight.
Gretel did not retreat, but took a step forward, tit for tat.
"Yes, the only White Devil in the wizarding world. So, do you think Dumbledore is right?
It is true that Voldemort's idea of wanting to dominate the wizarding world is extreme and wrong.
However, is Dumbledore, a remnant of the old era, and his idea of settling in a corner really suitable for the future? "
Gretel forced himself into the darkness, stepped on the dividing line, and forced Snape back.
In an instant, he softened his tone and stepped back.
"Professor, we have been together for a year, and you still haven't figured out what kind of person I am?
Do you think I am the kind of person who would hurt others at will?
You may doubt it, but I actually saved Ginny Weasley.
Without the Cruciatus Curse, she would have died on the spot. The Cruciatus Curse was the only way to drive out another soul at that time.
The remnant soul in the notebook was trying to drain Miss Weasley's life force and soul. He wanted to escape from the trap so much. "
Snape didn't know what he was thinking and was silent for a long time.
"Dumbledore came to my place and asked me if the ingredients for Polyjuice Potion were missing."
Grete raised his eyebrows, "Obviously, you didn't report me."
"Yes, I didn't," Snape stared directly into Gretel's dark brown eyes, "but if one day you become a murderous Dark Lord, I will risk my life to fight with you. Make a settlement."
Gretel was about to say something, but Snape didn't give him a chance.
He just waved his hand and asked him to rush to the office to help process the potion materials.
——
When the banquet was about to end, Terry ended his journey to vent his anger on his friend.
Facing Terry's reluctant look, Gretel smiled, "If you really want to play, just hold it first and don't lose it."
With Grete's permission, the reluctance on Terry's face instantly turned into excitement.
He solemnly hung the medal on his chest, quickly took a few bites of food and stuffed it into his stomach.
"Gretel, I won't leave with you later, I'm going to be a guest in the Gryffindor common room.
By the way, I didn’t even go when Hufflepuff invited me before, so let’s go together today. "
After the banquet was over, Gretel did not return to the tower, but turned around and went up to the eighth floor.
I believe that this time, Senior Tom Riddle should be able to communicate with him calmly.
Gretel placed the fangs next to his notebook and wrote down his request for a meeting.
Perhaps it was because Gretel ruined the resurrection plan that senior Tom Riddle became autistic.
Grete waited for a long time but didn't wait for him to appear.
To show his sincerity, Grete took out a crown from his bag.
After getting the notebook, he specially took it out from the large room where things were hidden in the Room of Requirement.
The crown is shaped like a crown and is set with sparkling gems. The bottom edge of the crown is also engraved with Ravenclaw's famous motto - Extraordinary wisdom is the greatest wealth of mankind.
"Senior, if you don't show up again, I will give you a tattoo of a basilisk's fangs. Believe me, my skills are not very good."
To prove it, Grete wore dragon skin gloves, held his fangs, and stabbed the golden crown.
Along with a burst of thick smoke, a shrill cry rang out from the crown. After a while, the wail disappeared and it completely turned into a dead thing.
When Gretel turned his fangs back, the notebook on the table moved silently, and words appeared on the blank paper crazily.
"We are originally one, why do we hurt each other like this?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Who is one with you?" Gretel spat and continued.
"Stop hiding it, senior. You have absorbed more than half of Ginny Weasley's vitality. You are already capable of projection. If you keep hiding yourself like this, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Seeing Gretel's hand getting closer and closer, Tom Riddle finally didn't dare to gamble anymore and reluctantly projected it in front of Gretel.
“I am jealousy that represents ambition, arrogance is Salazar’s locket, and anger is Gaunt’s ring.
Gluttony is Hufflepuff's golden chalice, greed is Ravenclaw's crown.
Apart from the obsession with the body, do you represent lust or laziness? "
Tom Riddle's tone was very firm. Because of the induction of the soul fragments, he recognized that Gretel was also the original Horcrux.
"Tell me, is there a possibility that I am not actually a Horcrux?" Gretel looked helpless.
"Impossible, you have the same smell as me, I can feel it.
I didn't expect someone to be resurrected before me. Except for the main body and you and me, the remaining Horcruxes have not woken up.
Let's work together and kill the main body so that he doesn't use us as the cost of resurrection.
There is no one in the world who can trust each other more than those of us who share the same origin. "
Gretel never expected that the first Horcrux made by Professor Fu would be the first thing he wanted to do when he woke up.
He also tried to seduce him, the professor's direct descendant, and join him on the path of resistance.
Isn't this the seven deadly sins, but according to what he said, it seems to be correct.
Salazar Slytherin originally looked down on Muggle wizards, and as his heir, Voldemort was naturally arrogant.
Marvolo Gaunt was his maternal grandfather, the ring was Voldemort's proof of pure blood, and the anger concealed the fact that he was half-blood.
The golden cup of gluttony, the crown of greed for knowledge,
Nagini in a few years should be Voldemort's laziness.
Well, Harry, it should be lust. Don’t you see that he is in fourth grade and the savior is in love every day.
Based on this calculation, Professor Fu did not leave Grete with a Horcrux trap at all.
Gretel, on the other hand, was a complete accident. As we all know, making a Horcrux requires a living life as a sacrifice, but his roommates are still alive and well.
While Grete was deep in thought, a cunning look flashed in Tom Riddle's eyes.
He did feel the flavor of the same origin in Gretel, but compared with the soul fragments contained in the Horcrux.
It's just insignificant, not enough to become a Horcrux that can be reborn.
He saw the determination of the wizard in front of him, and he was much more ruthless than when he was the same age.
He could feel the same kind of smell from Gretel, and this smell made him obsessed. Compared with Ginny Weasley, this wizard was the existence suitable for him to occupy.
Caught off guard, Tom Riddle's remnant soul pounced on Gretel.
The second update is here, and the third update will be in the early morning.
Book friends, go to sleep and read again tomorrow. Good night.
Let’s talk a little bit in this chapter, not make up a little theater.
PS:
The Horcrux is purely made up by the author, mainly to serve the plot of the normal dealings with Professor Fu later.
A lunatic who is obsessed with conquering the world really cannot be a teacher. In order to get a normal Professor Tom, he can only make it up like this.
I hope you don't mind. If you really do, I apologize. I'm sorry to have delayed your reading for so long. Thank you all for your support, thank you.
