Luckily the main story is at Hogwarts

"come out!"

When Ginny once again woke up in the abandoned women's bathroom, dripping wet, she couldn't help but yelled in a broken voice.

"I know it is you!"

"come out!"

It's a pity that this women's bathroom has been abandoned for many years. Normally, only the ghost Myrtle lives here, but Ginny's momentum in Tom's state is too strong, and Myrtle has long since disappeared without a trace, so now there is not even a ghost here. No.

Ginny's voice echoed in the empty bathroom, then drifted into the corridor, but no one heard it, and finally dissipated in the air.

"Come out!"

Ginny vented her anger, stopped, and looked at the diary lying in the water with fear and reluctance.

None of the Weasley children are truly stupid, including Ron. Ginny has long realized that her weird behavior may be related to this diary.

It's not like she never thought about throwing it away, but...

"This time, this time..."

Ginny suddenly pulled out her wand and pointed it at the diary tremblingly.

"Relax, kid."

"It is very unwise to come into contact with an unfamiliar magical item alone."

"Using a spell on it in a hurry to get rid of it is another bad decision."

An old voice suddenly appeared behind Ginny. Ginny shuddered, turned around, and saw Dumbledore's kind and kind face.

"Don't be afraid, Ginny, none of this is your fault."

"Principal Dumbledore!"

Ginny felt a sudden sense of relief.

It's not that she never thought about going to the professor for help, but when she thought about what she had done, she was afraid of being expelled. But the less she asked for help, the more mistakes she made.

Her heart became more and more unstable.

Now suddenly seeing Principal Dumbledore, no matter what the outcome, she felt like a burden had been lifted off her.

"Ginny, this isn't your fault."

The kind old man seemed to see Ginny's anxiety. Dumbledore slowly said again. He stretched out his wand and floated the diary in the water in front of him. Then, he took out a bottle of potion from his arms.

"Go back and have a good sleep, good girl."

"Everything will be fine."

Ginny asked tremblingly as her tears couldn't stop flowing.

"Really, Principal."

"I promise."

The little girl took the potion and nodded vigorously.

"and many more."

Dumbledore suddenly stopped Ginny who was about to leave. Under the little girl's confused gaze, he took out another large piece of chocolate candy.

"Chocolate always brings happiness."

He winked at Ginny.

The little girl looked at the big chocolate in Dumbledore's hand. This time, her smile finally couldn't stop and bloomed again amid tears.

She took the chocolate and ran out quickly.

Watching the little girl leave, Dumbledore silently took off the diary from the air, remained silent for a moment, and then put it into his arms.

[Item Obtained]: A magical diary (rare)

Tom is still very powerful. He was able to create rare magic items when he was young. As he progresses, he reaches epic quality.

This Dumbledore...of course is not Dumbledore, but Charles.

It's not Polyjuice Potion, it's just Transfiguration. It may not be able to fool the professors, but it's definitely enough to fool a little girl like Ginny.

Dumbledore is the most powerful white wizard in the world. It is not easy to get his hair or beard.

Ciel had no such intention at all.

The purpose of his trip was to intercept Hu's diary. The basilisk was a very useful tool, but no matter what the original plot was, the real plan was not as safe as being in his own hands.

Ciel needed the basilisk to attract attention and provide a cover for him to integrate Slytherin's power. Of course, it was impossible to let the unexpected factor of Tom continue to be outside.

He hadn't yet decided what to do with the basilisk, as it would depend on how strong the Slytherin's resistance was.

Charles knew very well that the Prewett family didn't seem to be causing trouble for him, but they didn't find the opportunity. If they found the opportunity, they would definitely pounce on them like hungry wolves.

But similarly, once Charles takes action against the Prewett family, unless they are stopped on the spot, there will be casualties, and subsequent news will spread, which will arouse the vigilance of other pure-blood families.

The circle of wizards is so large that it is difficult to hide the news.

After the Voldemort era, the power of pure-blood families has been greatly weakened, but there are still many core families with neutral and Death Eater tendencies that stick together.

If possible, it’s best to catch them all in one go.

First grasp the core power and control them, so that there will be no ripples in the magic world, and then the remaining neutral families will be easily solved.

So..how to catch them all in one go.

In the original plot, there were no student deaths, but the news of the Chamber of Secrets and the Basilisk still caused a huge repercussions in the magical world.

If possible, Ciel did not want the basilisk to attack the little wizard. After all, they were considered a viable force in the future war.

but..

If those purebloods are ignorant, Ciel may have to adopt some more radical plans in order not to be exposed prematurely.

Ciel, who continued to play Dumbledore, suddenly stopped.

"who is it?"

He turned slightly sideways and asked in a low voice, his half-moon-shaped glasses seemed to flash a cold light.

Charles knew that Ginny had abandoned the diary in the toilet. In fact, she had done similar things many times, but every time the diary would come back into her hands, until the situation became worse and worse.

So he used metaphorical magic to draw an invisible magical mark near several key corridors in Hogwarts, which was the mark of a small window.

Two worlds, one window, this time one can see the other side of the window.

This kind of magic not only allows Ciel to follow the plot in real time, but it is also a very useful surveillance magic. But just now... Ciel found that someone seemed to be following him.

"come out."

Ciel said calmly.

The surroundings were very quiet and quiet, as if Shard was worried.

But Ciel knew that his hunch was correct.

Not only the reaction given by magic, but also the sensitivity of reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance that he has developed as an agent for many years. Someone must be following him.

Ciel suddenly turned around, and the wand circled around his body following his movements. Large strands of light condensed like golden sand from fallen stars, and were then blown away by a strong wind.

"Wait for me!"

"Ginny! Hurry up!"

"We're going to be late."

The surrounding area where the golden sand floated seemed to be shrouded in a curtain of dusk, and phantoms began to appear. This was obviously the scene of the little wizards in this corridor during class during the day.

The scene reappears.

Ciel continued to move forward, and the scope of the light curtain also moved forward with his movements, and the surrounding illusions flashed rapidly like a bizarre short film clip.

The pace deliberately slowed down, and Ciel waited vigilantly.

This magic is not just about recreating the scene, it also combines anti-invisibility and other detection magic.

He is waiting for the other party to throw himself into the trap.
