Dark Lord, please let go

Since that conversation, Tom hasn't brought up anything about Horcruxes again, but Draco knows he still hasn't given up.

Oro finally withdrew from Hogwarts completely, and Tom also took the opportunity to go to the Chamber of Secrets with Draco, just as they thought, the basilisk was not in the Chamber of Secrets, it is probably swimming in a pipe in the castle now Walk.

"We have to find it before the real attack time occurs." Draco squinted his gray-blue eyes and cut the caterpillar in his hand violently.

"You'll ruin our potion, Draco."

Tom frowned, snatched the caterpillar from Draco's hand, sliced ​​it skillfully, and threw it into the cauldron. "Of course I know I have to find it, but where is it now, or do you think we have the conditions to go through every pipe in Hogwarts?"

"Your unique gift - Parseltongue, Mr. Riddle, this is something only you can do." Draco sneered, revealing a Malfoy smirk.

Tom didn't answer, but he brought the topic to another direction, "I heard from Professor Slughorn that the mandrake is ripe, and he will make the antidote today."

Hearing Tom's words, Draco almost poured all the rat gall in his hand into the cauldron, but fortunately Tom grabbed him in time, otherwise Draco would get a T in Potions class.

"You mean those two petrified students will wake up today?" Draco looked at Tom incredulously, how could he still be so calm now? "Oh hell, if they wake up, the whole school will know that the attack is not a dark wizard at all, not even a human being, but a basilisk!"

"Someone will think of your Tom. Most of the students in Slytherin know that you are a descendant of Slytherin." Draco's voice was a little gritted, he couldn't understand why this school year had become so difficult, all Things are not going well.

"So we're going to fix things quickly Draco, we're discussing that right now."

Ignoring Draco's anger, Tom filled the potion from the cauldron into two glass vials.Due to Draco's frequent mistakes today, the color of the shrinking potion was a bit dark, but Tom can guarantee that its effect is still there, and there will be no major problems if it is drunk, so he handed the potion to Slug Professor Horne.

"Too much rat bile has been added, and the color is a bit dark, but it's still worth an o, which is great." Slughorn stared at the two bottles of potion for a while, and gave his evaluation.

After the Potions class was over, Slughorn hurriedly left the classroom and walked outside the castle. Everyone was used to the professor's behavior.

"The professor went to the greenhouse again, is the mandrake about to mature?"

"Professor Slughorn is of course going to take a look. Don't forget, there is also a Slytherin who was petrified."

Yes, this is something that Draco only found out after. The petrified little Slytherin's father actually had a good relationship with Professor Slughorn. He has already written a letter to the professor, please Slughorn Take good care of your son.

"They're going to wake up tonight, what shall we do?"

"Tell Professor Dumbledore to let him deal with the basilisk." Tom squinted his obsidian eyes and said calmly.

"What do you mean?" Draco gave Tom a disdainful look, as if he had said something stupid.

"Literally Draco, basilisks are of no use to me anyway, and like I said, I have no interest in Salazar Slytherin's cause, and I'm not going to kill mudbloods. "Tom lifted the corner of his mouth, and quickly stuffed all his and Draco's textbooks into the schoolbag.

"Now, to Professor Dumbledore's office, you and me."

Draco was pulled by Tom, and he didn't know what expression to put on right now.What the hell, they were Slytherins, and now they were going to the head of Gryffindor to solve their problems.

"How are you going to explain that you know about the Basilisk?" Draco lowered his voice, his eyes narrowed dangerously, "If you tell him about the Chamber of Secrets, we will be deprived of all the gems! Night Tour, Basilisk, Petrochemical..."

Draco's expression paled with each word, and he certainly wasn't really afraid of stripping away the Slytherin gems.Dumbledore guessed his origin at that time, although Draco did not admit it, but think about it, how to explain it now?The thought of going to Dumbledore's office again made Draco feel his stomach tangle up and hurt like hell.

"Don't worry about Draco, Dumbledore should know I'm a Parseltongue." Tom said with a deadpan expression.

But such words made Draco even more disturbed. Dumbledore knew that Tom was a Parseltongue?When did this happen?If he really knew, why didn't he stop Tom from looking for the Chamber of Secrets?

But Tom was very calm, in fact, Draco didn't see the slightest nervousness in him, as if they were just discussing homework.

Draco kept his nerves down as much as possible until he arrived at Dumbledore's office, he didn't want to be seen through by Dumbledore's sweet old bee.After they entered Dumbledore's office, when Dumbledore smiled at him, Draco realized that all the efforts were in vain.

"What's the matter, children?" Dumbledore looked at the two with a smile.

Draco sat on the sofa and pursed his lips, secretly deciding not to say a word, not even a single word, in front of Dumbledore.

"Professor, I would like to ask for your help." Tom looked at Dumbledore calmly. "Just now in the corridor, I heard...a strange sound. I would like you to tell me what it is."

Dumbledore's blue eyes seemed to brighten a little, "Can you describe the sound you heard, Tom?"

Draco saw Tom nod, and as he expected he heard the sinister hiss.

There was a moment of astonishment on Dumbledore's expression, but he quickly put away his expression and looked at Tom tolerantly, "Tom, I want to tell you that this is a rare talent. Talent can come from your mother or your father."

"Professor, we can discuss this matter later. What I want to tell you is that I heard it in the corridor, and it seems to be saying..." Tom frowned, as if very distressed, "Kill...kill you... blood..."

Dumbledore listened intently to what Tom said, and when Tom finished speaking, he showed a thoughtful expression. "I think I need to add fifty points to Slytherin, oh, this is a very important discovery Tom, you guys did a very good job."

After speaking, Dumbledore waved his wand, and a silver-white phoenix flew out of the wand. "Go tell Professors Mellors and Professor Slughorn that I need their help."

After the patron saint left, Dumbledore looked at the two with a serious expression, "I have to tell you with regret that there may be a very dangerous magical creature in the castle. We must find it and destroy it."

"Tom, can you tell me where you heard that sound?"

Tom frowned, acting like he was thinking, but Draco knew Tom was faking it, no doubt about it.

"I'm not sure Professor. Draco and I were on the stairs between the third and fourth floors. I can't tell if it was coming from the third or fourth floor."

"It's okay Tom, but I'm afraid I need your help later." Dumbledore smiled gently.

After Professor Mellors and Slughorn rushed over, Dumbledore repeated what Tom had said.Draco was sure that Slughorn gave Tom an enthusiastic look when he heard the word Parseltongue, obviously he was more concerned about whether his student really had such a noble blood.

After that, things became easier. Although Dumbledore wanted Draco to go back to the Slytherin common room, Draco refused. In the name of Tom's friend, he must stay and confirm Tom's safety , although Dumbledore seemed dissatisfied, he finally agreed to Draco's request.

The three professors led Tom and Draco to start searching for the basilisk in the castle, and the search went smoothly. Just as they reached the seventh floor, Tom heard a familiar hissing sound in the wall. It doesn't matter that there are only third-year students, they are guarded by the professors.

Draco didn't want to meet the eyes of the basilisk, so he was not curious to see how the professors dealt with the basilisk.But he heard the cries of the phoenix, and the lights of various magics.After the basilisk was eliminated, Draco saw the huge green basilisk lying in the corridor on the seventh floor, its yellow eyes the size of light bulbs bleeding out.These actions of the professors did not attract the attention of other students at all. Obviously, some magic was cast in the corridor to prevent students from entering by mistake.

"You were a great help, Tom." Dumbledore smiled at Tom with relief.

"Albus, I think we can apply for a special contribution award for Tom. After all, it has played a great role in dealing with the basilisk Tom." Professor Slughorn said to Dumbledore with a smile. Get some rewards for Tom at this time.

"Of course Horace, this is what Tom deserves." Dumbledore's voice was a little tired, but his smile was still gentle.

Draco and Tom left the seventh floor, and the professors stayed behind to dispose of the basilisk's body, Professor Slughorn looking particularly happy.Draco guessed that on the one hand, he got the basilisk to make potion materials, and on the other hand, it might have something to do with Tom.

Originally, Slughorn liked Tom because of his extraordinary magical talent, but when Slughorn learned about Parseltongue, the nature changed completely. Laghorn liked Tom even more.
