[HP] Immortality

Christmas and New Year are the busiest times of the year in the UK, but Hogwarts is usually deserted during these days. The castle is emptied because of the holidays. Except for the portraits, some teaching staff and ghosts, the people who stay in the school The number of students is very small.

For Riddle, Christmas and New Year are indeed of great significance. During this time, he can travel alone in any corner of the castle without any scruples, to dig out the secrets of Hogwarts that have been silent for hundreds of years.

And this year is even more special. He has an extra girl by his side, who will accompany him to enjoy the Christmas dinner, watch Christmas Eve, unwrap presents, and even birthdays, which he never cared about, are celebrated in a special way.

Her cooking skills are really good. This is Riddle's truest thought after tasting the "Longevity Noodles" she brought out with great anticipation. He still remembered how happy the girl was after giving her evaluation, as if It's her birthday.

This is probably the most birthday-like birthday that Riddle has had for the first time in 16 years. The happy and beautiful atmosphere covered up everything. His little girl stuck to him with a smiling face all day long. It must be too gluey.

So that on the first day of the new year, he lost her without noticing.

Riddle searched all over Hogwarts, even went to the Forbidden Forest, Hogsmeade, and Diagon Alley. From daytime to nightfall, he found nothing, not a single letter or any news.

The double-sided mirror used for communication was placed in the most conspicuous position of the desk. Apart from her white shirt, there was no shortage of clothes in the closet, and her Yueling hairpin was missing from the drawer of the dressing table. A lot of things have been added, but it is terribly empty.

In the middle of the night, the office of the professor of transfiguration received a visit from a mock student. The observant Dumbledore noticed something was wrong from the very first moment he saw him. He had never seen this polite and modest student so impatient. .

"..Sorry to disturb your rest so late, Professor Dumbledore, please forgive me, I do have some important things to confirm, please don't mind."

"Oh...of course not, please come in, Riddle, I hope I can be of help." Dumbledore took a step back and let him in.

The originally dim light in the room turned on from the moment he entered, but he was in no mood and even impatient to flirt with this professor who disliked him, and asked straightforwardly the moment the door was closed, "My girlfriend, who is your Teaching assistant, may I ask if the professor has seen her today, or has there been some strange letters and notes?"

With just this sentence and his anxious look, Dumbledore realized something. He immediately thought seriously and answered after a few seconds, "Although I hope so, the last time I meet Miss Qing should be Like the other professors, in the auditorium at dinner last night, she didn't pass on any paper or verbal information to me, but I'd be happy to offer some help, which you seem to need."

This also completely shattered the little luck in Riddle's heart, and he immediately sank his face, "Don't bother, professor, thank you for telling me this, I won't bother you, good night."

After finishing these polite words quickly, Riddle didn't give Dumbledore a chance to continue asking questions.Turn around and push the door out.It's just that his pace was much slower than when he came here. He looked at the empty corridor and felt a little dazed for a while.

Is he...waking up from a dream?

After a sleepless night, Riddle didn't go back to the dormitory but stayed in her dormitory almost all night. His complexion was visibly ugly to the naked eye, his usual handsome face was covered with a pale layer of exhaustion, like a man who is always at home. A psychopath on the verge of collapse who explodes at the slightest provocation.

The jade pendant in his hand is as shiny as the crystal clear moon under the brilliant fireworks that night. This night, his eyes did not leave the jade pendant for a moment. It seems that only doing so can keep him awake to the greatest extent. .

The moment he decided to open the door and leave, everything had an answer, the jade pendant was hidden in his arms, and his life was about to get on the right track.

The sky over Nurmengard is overcast, and the sun is blocked by the clouds from contacting the ground. There is no doubt that it will rain today.

But the bad weather outside is not very interesting for Grindelwald at this time. Since the first day of the new year, he has diligently kept an observation diary for two months, and there are five months left before the deadline. Clearly no small project.

The girl, shrouded in a transparent protective layer of magic and strange spells he didn't understand, kept sitting cross-legged for two months, and every time he visited her during this period, he tried to find out if she had moved secretly Traces, such as standing up and stretching or something.

But it's a pity, apart from her obviously protruding belly, it can be seen from the outside that she is a pregnant woman, judging from the results of some small magic he used, she is really motionless as explained at the beginning Persist until now.

According to the agreement, Grindelwald will inquire about all the troubles at Hogwarts through various means and then come back to tell her, especially those related to that student.

Although Grindelwald, who was acting as the messenger, doubted whether the girl in a state he could not understand could really hear him, he did so.

"It seems that your cultivation progress is good. I can feel the cohesion and flow of power. This is really amazing. I hope you can give me a satisfactory explanation after five months.

Well, an interesting piece of news about Hogwarts.Your little boyfriend was involved in an expulsion scandal the week before, and you should know the specific reasons for it. The family behind a student who had been lying in St. Mungo's for three months intervened in the school through the Ministry of Magic, and ended up with a female student. Standing up, pleading guilty and voluntarily withdrawing from school is over.

Oh.. that kid is much more charismatic than I was back then, funny isn't it, at least I couldn't convince Albus to join my team, but he might be able to do something I couldn't. "

Grindelwald waited for a while after he finished speaking, but the girl in the protective layer still sat with her eyes closed and did not move at all. His interest was cut in half immediately, and he didn't stay any longer.

The second half of the school year after the holiday is undoubtedly a critical moment against time for the fifth and seventh graders at Hogwarts, because the important exams OWL and NEWT in June are closely related to most of them.

Whether you can get a job you want after graduation is inextricably linked to these two exams. For example, an Auror applying to the Ministry of Magic needs to obtain "excellent" or "good" results in at least five NEWT exams.

And if you want to take the NEWTS exam of the corresponding course, you must first pass the OWL, so this can be said to be a certain decisive factor for every student's career. After all, not every student is as powerful as the Malfoy family.

Under the shroud of this tense atmosphere, the matter of the resignation of the teaching assistant of the Transfiguration class gradually no one mentioned it, and everyone chose to forget it together as if by convention.

For a while, everyone's study and life seemed to be back to the past, the busy ones became busier, and the idle ones were brought along to work together.Except for Greenton and others who specifically asked Dumbledore and the mock student, the short-lived assistant teacher of the Transfiguration class seemed to have disappeared like this, and would never come back again.

After the turmoil of dropping out, Riddle was once again pushed to the cusp of another storm. Everyone spurned Selwyn, who had left Hogwarts. Under such a beautiful skin, there was such a selfish and vicious heart, even if Burst returned as a victim, but the wind of public opinion was that he deserved it.

Just at this moment, some students headed by Orion Black jointly reported to the Education Department of the Ministry of Magic about the crime of attacking students committed by the resigned teaching assistant of the Transfiguration class. Due to the large number of witnesses, Principal Dippet The one-sided statement was not adopted, and the Ministry of Magic sent relevant personnel to intervene in the investigation.

And the one who bears the brunt of this investigation is Riddle. As the victim who was witnessed by many students, it is unexpected. For the investigator's identification, such as whether he was indeed attacked, whether the teaching assistant has the tendency to harm minor wizards, etc. gave an unexpected answer.

"Yes, sir. The teaching assistant did want to kill me, but was stopped by Professor Dumbledore in time, but I don't know what deal was reached between them. Obviously, without the teaching assistant's plan, the lady But can stay very suspicious.

I don't know her whereabouts either. Maybe she is related to the dark wizard or something else. As a student, I have limited information. I only know that this lady is dangerous and I have to trouble the Ministry of Magic. Early approval of arrest. "

These remarks seemed to have been thought out in advance. Riddle was very calm, without any underage nervousness or fear, and even replied with a polite smile throughout the whole process.

The investigators didn't expect it to be so smooth, so he hurriedly looked down at the information collected in his hands, cleared his throat and continued to ask questions, "But according to the descriptions of other students, you seem to have had an intimate relationship with this dangerous person .”

For this, Riddle seemed to have been prepared for a long time, without changing his face, he said, "Indeed, I got in touch with this teaching assistant because of this incident, so we got together, but we broke up because of the quarrel, and what I suffered Education taught me to be law-abiding, or I wouldn't have admitted these views against her, and perhaps distorted the facts."

This set of almost perfect rhetoric made the investigators involuntarily think in the direction of suspicion, but what the other party said was not unreasonable, and he could only follow the process first, "Thank you for your cooperation, please tell me, the last time you met The time, place and content of the conversation, the more detailed the better, this may be helpful for follow-up tracking."

"Of course, I will tell you everything I know in detail." Riddle immediately responded with a smile, his eyes swept over the other party's note-taking actions, and a trace of imperceptible cunning flashed from the dark eyes passed away.

Some of the evidence collected at Hogwarts was enough to approve the arrest warrant, especially after a series of investigations, the relevant personnel were surprised to find that there was no record of the teaching assistant, except for the break-in by a dark wizard last year In the case of the disappearance of persons in the Forbidden Forest of Hogwarts, her information was as clean as a blank sheet of paper.

However, due to the instructions and pressure from above, even though the search was very difficult, two Aurors were still assigned to take charge of it, at least they had to put on a show.

No one knew what Riddle and the personnel from the Ministry of Magic who were under investigation said that day, but within a few days, they all withdrew from Hogwarts.After just a week, the arrest warrant was granted and was published with great fanfare in the daily Prophet.

This caused an uproar for a while, but the imminent exam made the students restrain themselves, except that Malfoy almost knocked on the door of the imitation student's dormitory in the middle of the night like crazy.

The moment the door was opened, Malfoy rushed in and punched him in the face, only to be hit by an invisible force the next second, hitting the hard wall with a dull sound , the arm also began to tingle.

But Malfoy still yelled with a look of no regrets, "An arrest warrant from the Ministry of Magic, Riddle, what have you done? Bastard! What have you done to her!"

Riddle, who received a solid punch, didn't care about the pain on his face. He just pointed his wand at the immobile person who was nailed to the wall, and his dark eyes, which were about to melt into the groggy environment, were full of killing intent. .

A few seconds passed before he took two steps forward, "Malfoy has a curfew for attacking his classmates, and he will be locked up for a month."

Here I come, sisters, probably nothing sweet from here on

The countdown to the finale begins
