Dark Lord, please let go

The courses in the second grade were much heavier than those in the first grade, and Tom took more courses than Draco. He even applied to Professor Slughorn to audit the elective courses in the third grade.They shuttled between different classrooms every day, busy writing longer and longer papers and homework, doing various spell exercises, and even Devlin was more serious in class.

During this period, Tom would disappear in front of his friends for a while after each class.He was looking for the Chamber of Secrets that Slytherin had left for the heir, and he didn't want anyone, not even Draco, to know about it.

Tom is convinced that since it is the chamber of secrets left by Salazar Slytherin, the key to entering the chamber of secrets must be the Parseltongue, because only the descendants of Slytherin will inherit the Parseltongue, which also ensures that the chamber of secrets will not be destroyed by Slater. People other than Lin's heirs enter.It's just that snakes, as the symbol of Slytherin House, can be seen everywhere in the cellars of Hogwarts, even the bathroom in his and Draco's dormitory is full of snake symbols.Now, there are more than ten snake-shaped signs in the corridor in front of Tom.

Tom just glanced at the snake-shaped signs casually, then turned a corner and walked to another corridor.

He didn't believe that Salazar Slytherin would arrange the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets in such an obvious place, at least it should be more hidden, definitely not in the corridor where people came and went.

It's just that today's Tom is obviously not going well. Just when he was about to enter a secret passage he just discovered, he was grabbed by Draco who was supposed to participate in the Quidditch match.Draco was still wearing a dark green Quidditch robe, and was holding his Comet 180 in his hand. His platinum-blond hair, which was originally well-groomed, was a little messy, and there was still a dead leaf on his hair, which could be seen He's just been playing Quidditch.

"Aren't you competing, Draco?" Tom raised his eyebrows, but he didn't pull his arm out of Draco's hand. He had six years to find the Chamber of Secrets in Hogwarts, There is no rush.

"I thought you would come to my game Tom, I remember we made an appointment yesterday, you, Kassim and Devlin, came to the Slytherin stands." Draco squinted at the gray blue pair Dark eyes, a hint of irritation on a pretty face.

"Oh, yes, but I think you'll win the match, after all, against Hufflepuff." Tom smiled slightly, and then stepped forward to hug Draco, who was still exuding anger, "You won, didn't you? Just faster than I expected."

Or Tom's pleasing Draco, whose face looked a little better and his chin still raised, "It's just Hufflepuff, oh, it's been taking quite some time. You know, Hufflepuff Patch doesn't fly as well as Gryffindor."

Draco paused for a moment, and he suddenly found that Tom had successfully changed the subject, and even talked about Quidge.He pursed his lips and said sarcastically, "Tom, you haven't answered my question yet, and you haven't come to the Quidditch match."

What Quidditch meant to Draco, Tom knew all too well, it was the only sport Draco could risk his own life to participate in, and although it seemed stupid in Tom's eyes, he wouldn't say that in public From Draco's face. "I went to the library and lost track of time."

Draco believed this reason. From his point of view, Tom would indeed forget the time when he read a book, and such a thing happened not once or twice. Once Tom even forgot that there was a section of herbal medicine in the afternoon. Tom would have missed the herbal medicine class in the afternoon if Draco hadn't discovered at the end that Tom wasn't following.

"Damn it, you have to go to the library on the day of the Quidditch match!" Draco rolled his eyes angrily. There is nothing more fascinating than Quidditch.

While the two were talking, the castle suddenly became lively, mixed with cheers and whistles, and the students who had gone to watch the Quidditch game returned to the castle from the venue.

"Hey, Draco, Tom!" Devlin saw Tom and Draco standing at the corner of the corridor from a distance, shouted excitedly, dragged Kasim beside him and rushed towards the two.

"Draco, why did you go back to the castle so soon? Singleton was still looking for you after the game."

Walking in front of the two of them, Kasim glanced at Draco who was still holding Tom's arm, blinked at Draco, and said in a tone of voice, "Is it because I didn't see Tom in the stands, that's why I didn't see you?" Can't wait to fly back to the castle after the game?"

"Fly back?" Tom raised his eyebrows, and he was very pleased to hear Kasim's words, "So you want to see me so much? Draco."

As Tom expected, Draco's face flashed with embarrassment, and then he raised his chin as if nothing happened, "It's just that you forgot our agreement, Tom."

Tom smiled and nodded without denying it.He really didn't go to Draco's game, partly because he thought Quidditch was a stupid sport, partly because he didn't want to see Draco fly.It cannot be denied that Draco flies very well, better than the average Hogwarts Quidditch player, but it is also dangerous, and every time Tom sees Draco doing something dangerous, he feels that Draco Laco would fall off the broom and break his own neck, and he didn't want to see that, even if it was a very remote possibility.

Draco is one of Tom's few friends. Although there are many people who regard him as a friend now, in Tom's view, they are just partners that can be used. Their family background is prominent, and they have special respect for the heirs of Slytherin , which is exactly what he needs.But Draco is different, in the orphanage Draco is the only one who doesn't hate him, even if Draco is now a child of the Malfoy family, he also has an enviable pure-blood family, Tom will not take advantage of Draco Co, so there were some things he'd rather talk to Walburga and Abraxas than to Draco.

"I'm sorry, but Devlin should have taken your picture, I think I can understand your game from the picture in a while." Tom's slender fingers brushed Draco's pale cheeks, from his somewhat messy eyes. Taking out a dead leaf from the platinum blonde hair, he chuckled and said, "It seems you are in a hurry Draco."

Draco's pale face flushed, and he let go of Tom's hand, trying to straighten his hair.

"Oh, come on, you can tidy up in the dormitory later, we should celebrate now!" Kasim rolled his eyes at Draco, anyway, no one would care about Draco's appearance now.

Draco frowned nonchalantly, "Celebration? Forget it, the opponent is only Hufflepuff, if it's Gryffindor..."

"Draco, I don't think you should say that in the corridor, especially with so many people, it's unwise."

Abraxas' voice came from behind. He and his friends had already stood behind some of them at some point, and Tom, who was facing him, obviously didn't intend to remind them.

"Tom, you didn't watch Quidditch." Abraxas said to Tom with a smile, but looked at Draco half-heartedly, "You don't know, Draco is very disappointed. I've been looking at the Slytherin stands all the time."

Draco's face flushed again, and he could hear low laughter from people around him, and even Walburga whispered something to Avery that 'Draco and Tom have such a good relationship'.

"No!" Draco interrupted Abraxas angrily. He looked guilty, but he still held his head high and said slowly, "I think I'd better go back and change clothes. It just sucks, I feel like I rolled in the dirt."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for other people to react, he strode towards the cellar with big strides, regardless of whether Kasim and Devlin who were chasing after him could keep up.

After Draco left, Abraxas put away his smile and followed Tom towards the cellar.

"Tom, I have to admit to you that Walburga, Avery and I checked some information during the vacation. You know, we don't know much about Gaunt, but we still found some clues."

Hearing the word Gunter, Tom stopped abruptly, "Did you find out about Gunter's house?"

"I just want some news, and we can't confirm it is true, because there is really too little news about the Gaunt family." Abraxas was a little frustrated. This was the first time he wanted to help Tom, but he It was found that the information he checked was far from enough, and could not prove anything at all. "I just heard that a witch sold an item in the Bojinbok magic shop in Knockdown Alley. I heard that the item originally belonged to Slytherin."

Tom Black squinted his obsidian-like eyes. When he heard Knockturn Alley, he suddenly thought that Draco also went to Knockturn Alley during the holiday. Does that mean that Draco also knows something?

"What do you think of Tom?" Abraxas asked aloud seeing that Tom was silent.

Tom pursed his lips, subconsciously unwilling to consider whether Draco knew about the item belonging to Slytherin, "Thank you, Abraxas, I will find a chance to visit Knockturn Alley. Think about it, leave the next thing to me.”

Yes, he'd have to check out Borginbock's Magic Shop, he could drink the Aging Potion like Draco, and he still had that second-hand wand, so it'd be handy to go to Knockturn Alley.Maybe, he could still figure out what Draco was doing at Knockturn Alley last time, a Malfoy would be impressive.

Afterwards Tom went back to his bedroom as if nothing had happened, and Draco had just come out of the bathroom after taking a shower.

The platinum-blond hair was still dripping with water, and the upper part of the pajamas on his body was wet from the water dripping from his head, sticking to his body, revealing his delicate collarbone. Because of the heat, Draco's usually pale face was slightly pale Flushed, he brushed his hair as he made his way to his four-poster bed.

Tom raised his eyebrows. It wasn't the first time he saw Draco after taking a shower, but since he saw Draco who was 20 years old, when he saw Draco again today, Tom's heartbeat seemed to slow down by half shoot.Not understanding why he had such a strange feeling, Tom still reminded, "You'll catch a cold like this, Draco."
