"Hold, I'm sorry!" The cleaning lady calmed down, and immediately blamed herself, "I didn't find anyone in the room. If it's inconvenient, I'll come back at another time."

Now Harry was a little flustered, and quickly comforted him: "No, it's okay, I was joking too much, I'm sorry."

The cleaning lady held the broom, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "May I ask, what is your relationship with the landlord? The photos I saw from the company are different from yours..."

"Ah..." Harry scratched his head, his eyes wandered back, "Well..."

Under the unexplained gaze of the cleaning lady, Harry's eyes fixed, and he activated his insanity.

——The client is a banker who has been on business trips for many years. The secretary seeks us for professional home care work, and regular cleaning and maintenance are required every Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday.

A black-and-white photo was posted on the front page of the folder. The captured Tom was obviously a little impatient, but the rough silhouette was already handsome enough.

"...I am his secretary assistant, and I am here today to check on the maintenance of the room."

Ten minutes later, Harry smiled and said goodbye to her.

From the mind of the cleaning lady, the current secretary is still Dave, and Roald's identity is a banker. He never shows up at ordinary times and can only be contacted through the secretary.As people hired to clean and maintain, that's all they can know.

More information might be available from Dave, but Harry had no contact information for him.

He was walking on the streets of London. The heavy snow covered the roofs of the merchants, absorbing all the human voices, but the bustling commercial atmosphere still overflowed everywhere. The music of Christmas songs floated on the street, and a group of children ran around with red noses and laughing. Pass.

"Don't take your sister too far." The mother reminded her as she walked slowly behind, while the burly father beside him was carrying large and small bags of Christmas ornaments and food.

Looking at them, Harry couldn't help but think of Christmas at the Dursleys', which looked just like any other house except that he wasn't allowed to be there.

At the beginning of the summer vacation, Tom asked Dave to discuss business with Uncle Vernon. Uncle Vernon's fearful and greedy look seemed to have Dave's contact information...

He stopped and stood for a while beside the big Christmas tree in the middle of the square.

Let's stop here for today.

Back at school, Harry went back to his dormitory early and went to bed.

He fell asleep in a daze and woke up, and only went to the auditorium for something to eat at mealtime. Ron and Hermione were not there, so he had to go to Hagrid to chat.

"Oh, sorry, Harry." Hagrid looked like he was about to go out with his cloth bag on his back, "I have something to do, can we talk another day?"

"what's up?"

"Ah, you know..." Hagrid said vaguely, "In the Forbidden Forest, my little friends..."

"Well..." said Harry, "I mean, of course. I'll see you another day."

Sirius contacted him through the two-way mirror, Harry was in a daze in the common room, and was asked by the godfather why he didn't go back to the Burrow, and his headache became more and more serious.

"I have to keep as little contact with the Order of the Phoenix as possible!" Harry growled on the verge of collapse.

"Voldemort is even worse!" Sirius roared angrily, "That guy may still be in school, you have to stay away from him!"

Harry was speechless for a moment.The air bubbles in his chest were crackling and pierced by these words, and the pressure difference was crowded there so that it was stuffy and melancholy.

"……understood."

He whispered, his voice hoarse and weak.

Before the experiment began, Voldemort deliberately brought Nagini from Tinta Castle.

[Why do you have to come to school? 】Boss Nagini chased after his butt and flicked his tail unhappily, 【I can’t even stretch my tail here, the range I can crawl is not as long as my body, and the food at Hogwarts is terrible, domesticated Every time the elf finds me, he throws something at me, the key is not to eat it!And I have already started to recognize the bed, only the soft Simmons in the room next to your bedroom can make me fall asleep...]

Voldemort turned a deaf ear to pouring coffee for himself. The experiment took a long time. Although it was not like the Horcrux Transformation without even a break in the middle, there were a lot of things that needed to be prepared, and they had to be done as soon as possible before Muggle Day came. adequate preparation.

Nagini talked for a while, but got no response, and wrapped his foot angrily, not letting him move.

【open. 】He said.

Nagini persisted for a second, then let go aggrieved.

[Woo, I want to go home. 】

Voldemort was a little amused, and finally managed to give her some attention: [Which family?You haven't lived as long at Tinta Castle as Hogwarts. 】

[The orphanage! 】

【Demolished. 】

【...Didn't you dig more nests? 】

【unnecessary. 】

Nagini was speechless.The owner is clearly ruthless and unreasonable, what can a snake do?

Voldemort touched the big snake's triangular snake head with his hand, and said softly: [There is a task for you. 】

The snake tilted its head, as if it was angrily asking: What?

[Social mission. 】 Voldemort coaxed, 【It's up to you. 】

The big snake forgot to be angry for a moment, raised its head proudly, and couldn't hide its proud tail: [Huh, let's talk. 】

[Help me entertain Harry Potter. 】

Until dinner time on Christmas Eve, Voldemort was still missing from the staff seats in the auditorium, and Harry's depression finally broke out.He threw down the half-eaten meal and left the table angrily under the surprised gaze of Seamus.

Back in the bedroom, I took out the mobile phone in the drawer, but there was still no reply.

He called up the address book and dialed directly.

"Beep-beep-"

To his surprise, the notification tone only rang twice before it was connected.

[Harry Potter. 】

The hissing sound was transmitted through the radio waves, making it even more eerie and cold.

Harry didn't notice anything wrong for a while, and asked angrily, "Where are you?" 】

【Well... Who are you asking? 】

Harry hesitated slightly, feeling a little strange.

[However, the answer is the same...] The other end of the phone asked and answered.

Harry realized it wasn't Voldemort.

【Who are you?Why is Tom's cell phone with you? 】

[I am Tom's closest partner.At this time, who else can I count on besides me? ] Hehe laughed over there, looking very proud, 【You want to see him, no.Not yet. 】

Harry frowned, thinking quickly in his mind, put on his coat, and stepped towards the door.

[What do you mean it's not enough now? ] He said angrily, 【The person who wants me to stay with you is him. 】

[Tsk...he is so naive. 】

Harry froze, this tone... It was the first time he heard it from the people around Voldemort.

No one ever dared to talk about him like that.

[When can it be, little girl? 】

[I don't know...huh?How do you know I belong to a girl? 】

Harry hurried to the Defense Against the Dark Arts office, showing a clear smile: [I also know you are a snake, Tom likes you very much, right? 】

【well?You bastard...how can you tell the truth? 】

Harry couldn't help laughing.He knew that Voldemort had a pet snake that had been with him all the time. Although he had never seen them get along, he could get a glimpse of it from the little girl who locked Snape's door. Trying to apply it, it was easier than he imagined. to succeed.

【I've always been curious, what kind of name did Tom give you?It sure sounds good. 】

【Hey... still okay?My name is Nagini. 】

[Nagini...a good name.This year's Christmas dinner at Hogwarts is very rich, have you tried it? 】

[Woo...don't tell me this, I haven't eaten a single bite now! 】

Harry's steps toward the Defense Against the Dark Arts office became even quicker, and he was almost certain that Voldemort was there.

【Too much...】 He murmured, 【He should let you go to dinner, it's really not to be missed. 】

【Huh...that's...】 Nagini whimpered for a while, then changed the subject, 【However, Tom is not feeling well right now...I can't leave him. 】

Harry's heart tightened: [What?What's the matter? 】

[If you don't feel good, you don't feel good. ] Nagini explained simply and rudely, 【He just likes to toss himself... blood is pouring out from under the door...it's terrible. 】

【Blood? 】Harry's first reaction was to ask nervously, 【Whose blood? 】

[Of course Tom's... ah! 】

Harry's brain froze for a few seconds, a sharp sting pierced through his scar, a dazzling flash replaced his vision, and the moment his soul was connected, he felt a sense of exhaustion, as if tens of thousands of One hand grabbed and dragged every inch of his skin, pulling it straight to the bottom of the abyss.

Caught off guard, he fell to the ground, his head was spinning, his hands were pressed to the ground for a long time, and he couldn't tell which direction to support himself.

Connections come and go quickly.In about ten seconds, he digested the aftertaste of the shock, picked up his phone, and rushed to Voldemort's office without saying a word.

Although unimaginable——

But he couldn't help imagining—

That guy is in danger now!

"Open the door!"

He roared and slapped the door panel, shaking it slightly.

"Open the door! I know you're inside, Voldemort!"

[Harry! 】

When he was burning with anxiety, a small voice sounded.

Harry lowered his head when he heard the sound, and saw a series of familiar lines appearing on the flat doorknob.

[Long time no see...hehe. 】The patterned little snake laughed and said, 【Need help? 】
