Professor The Vampire Earl of Hogwarts

Chapter 61 The Secret of the Bathroom

"Tom Riddle is Voldemort?" Dracula looked at Dumbledore in surprise.

"That's right." Dumbledore nodded lightly, and told the story decades ago, "It was I who took him from the Wu's Orphanage to Hogwarts more than 50 years ago and gave him the opportunity to learn magic. .”

"Tom is very good at acting, and he is also very good at winning people's hearts. During his school days, he initially established an organization in Slytherin House, which was the prototype of Death Eaters. At that time, he abandoned the too common name Tom. , and the surname Riddle, which comes from a Muggle father."

"Tom's performance in school has always been very good. Almost all the professors think he is a good student with both good character and academics. He has deceived almost everyone in Hogwarts." Dumbledore said heavily, "Only because of me I have seen him bullying other children in the orphanage, and I am on guard against his character. But I can't come up with any definite evidence..."

"Oh? This is interesting." In the dignified atmosphere, the corners of Dracula's lips suddenly curled up, "I think about it, a boy born as an orphan endured humiliation under the guard and oppression of a powerful professor, and finally succeeded. Stand out from Hogwarts and establish a fearsome Death Eater force. What a touching and inspirational story!"

"Damn it, why didn't that old Nico wake me up at that time? Maybe I can see what little Tom looked like when he was young, and maybe I can also participate in his experience of lurking underground to start the Death Eater force. Think It’s interesting to think about it!”

After listening to Dumbledore's story about Voldemort when he was young, Dracula finally had a certain understanding of this unnameable Dark Lord, and he also developed a new interest in him.

At this time, in Dracula's mind, Voldemort is finally no longer a small character with a flat image, no brains, and no devil at all.

Dumbledore next to him was lost in thought.

He is now a little unclear whether it is the right decision to let Dracula come to Hogwarts as a professor...

"Uncle Dracula, don't forget that Tom Riddle cheated my mother's crown, you have to teach him a lesson for me!" Seeing Dracula's interested expression, Helena was afraid that he would be interested He joined the Dark Lord's camp and hurriedly said aggrievedly.

"Don't worry, Helena!" Dracula gave her a reassuring expression, "I will definitely teach him a lesson, and let him return Rowena's crown to you in tears!"

The topic was unknowingly taken awry.

It was because Myrtle felt that she couldn't get in the conversation all the time, so she got into the toilet bowl and thumped again, which reminded Dumbledore and Dracula of today's business.

"Professor Dracula, I think we should hurry up for the next action." Dumbledore said sternly, "Tom dared to expose his young figure to the eyes of others, which means that he feels that there is no need to hide it anymore. That is to say, he already guessed that we dug a hole, and we are waiting for him to jump into it."

"But in order to get the Philosopher's Stone, he has to jump into the pit, right?" Dracula smiled easily, turning his head to look at Helena, "When Voldemort jumps into the pit, I'll go and take care of him Let me teach you a lesson, and then help you get your crown back, okay?"

"Yeah!" Helena nodded emphatically.

"Okay, Professor Dracula, it's time to work." Dumbledore stepped aside and urged, "It's time for us to check what Voldemort and Quirrell are hiding in this semi-abandoned girls' bathroom It's a secret."

Dracula nodded slightly, and took out an old piece of parchment from his pocket, which was the Hogwarts title deed that he had used very easily.

As the magic power in his hand moved, lines criss-crossed and flowed on the paper, slowly interweaving into a grid in the shape of Hogwarts castle.

Dracula's eyes moved slightly, and then, a part of the grid suddenly enlarged, and a pattern that was exactly the same as the structure of the semi-abandoned bathroom where Myrtle was located appeared on the parchment——every magic node in the bathroom jumped out. On paper, every corner of the picture has become finely detailed.

"Sometimes when I see Professor Dracula's authority over Hogwarts, I don't even know what use I am as the headmaster." Watching Dracula's movements, Dumbledore sighed.

At this time, Dracula didn't have time to pay attention to Dumbledore's exclamation, but carefully observed the land deed in his hand, frowning slightly.

"The magic node here seems a bit complicated."

He turned around suddenly and looked at the pool where he had just leaned against to watch the play.

This pool is very old, and it can be vaguely seen that it is made of marble.The surface of the stone slab has peeled off, and it is still a little damp, and there are some sparse moss growing in the cracks of the peeling.

There are many dirty faucets above the pool, and from time to time, one or two drops of water will come down, making a "tick" and "tick" sound, and some water splashes out of the pool and onto the ground, making the floor look wet.

A large mirror with mottled stains and cracks stood behind the pool, reflecting Dracula, Dumbledore, and Helena in it.As for Myrtle, she stuffed herself into the toilet without being reflected in the mirror.

"Is there any problem here?" Dumbledore leaned over, looked at the stained pool and mirror, and asked suspiciously.

Dracula unfolded the land deed in his hand and placed it in front of Dumbledore.

"As the headmaster, you should be very familiar with the associated magic power system in Hogwarts castle, Dumbledore?" he said, "Look at the structure of this bathroom, the magic power nodes in other positions are very normal. However, in this There are four or five more magic power nodes at the position of the pool, and the rear of these magic power nodes suddenly become empty, as if they were artificially shielded."

"So what else is behind this pool?" Dumbledore asked, "Are there any magic nodes that cannot be seen with the authority of this title deed?"

"Yes. After all, I am only the lord of this land, and the castle was built by Salazar and Godric after all." Dracula explained, "So if the four founders want to be involved in the construction of the castle It is normal to bring some private goods without showing it in the land deed."

Dumbledore nodded knowingly.

"Hey, there seems to be a faucet here that doesn't come out of water."

He looked at one of the copper faucets, with a small snake carved on it...
