[HP] So you are such Anita

Chapter 33 Tom's Secret

After losing the Quidditch match, everyone in the Slytherin lounge was silent. Draco went back to his dormitory early, and Blake followed closely behind him in case he couldn't think about it.

Anita and Millicent both looked at each other and sighed deeply.

"I heard that Professor Lockhart lost Potter's bones, and now he is lying in the medical room facing Madam Pomfrey." Millicent said quietly.

"This is barely a consolation." Anita was a little helpless, Potter's luck was really confusing.

"Annie, Faol asked me to send you a message." Tom walked to Anita's side when Anita and Millicent were talking. "We have to talk alone."

Annie stood up, nodded to Millicent, and followed Tom out.

Through the portrait of Slytherin, Tom directly brought Anita under a large tapestry with giant monsters. He looked at the tapestry silently, and a door appeared magically on the tapestry.

Tom walked in with Anita. Behind the door was a warm living room with a burning fireplace, beautiful garden tapestries, comfortable sofas, and a wooden coffee table full of snacks.

"Perhaps you have also noticed that most of the professors in Hogwarts don't like me." Tom sat on the sofa casually, and motioned Anita to sit casually, "Actually, their suspicions are right, I am indeed a Dangerous person."

"Well, I guessed it. My grandfather has some little plans that no one else will know about." Anita poured herself a cup of tea in no surprise. "Did my grandfather take a fancy to anything in Hogwarts?"

"Yes, but that's not the only reason why they guard against me," Tom hesitated, "I think I should be more sincere to you, after all, we have the same goal now."

"Well, let's talk." Anita took a sip of tea lightly.

"I'm sorry for what happened to Mr. Auerbach, I didn't expect him to do something like that..."

"What?" Anita was confused.

"Mr. Ludwig Auerbach," said Tom very slowly, "my real name is Tom Riddle, and so is Voldemort's real name, Tom Riddle."

"It's unfortunate that you have the same name as Voldemort, but it's not your fault," Anita put down the tea in her hand, "don't be so careful, I won't take your anger out on you just because you have the same name as Voldemort."

"I have the same name as him for a reason..."

"There's a reason... You mean your Riddle and Voldemort's Riddle are the same Riddle? Are you Voldemort's son?" Anita's expression became serious, "Then you won't have an easy life in the future gone."

"You guessed half right. I will probably use my identity as Voldemort's son in the future to cover up the fact that I am too similar to him. No, it is not too similar. In fact, I should say that I am exactly the same as him. I am him, but he is not me. .”

"I don't quite understand..." Anita frowned.

"I'm who he used to be. He cut me out of his soul at 16. I'm a fragment of his soul."

Anita stood up abruptly, looking at Tom in disbelief.

"I know, it's impossible for him to just cut me out, and I stand here to show that the soul experiment in the diary was successful, so according to my guess, the four treasures of Hogwarts should also become his Horcruxes , and the Horcruxes are not destroyed, the soul piece is not destroyed, Voldemort will not really die, but it is precisely because of the side effects of this black magic that he becomes violent, irritable, arrogant, and cruel..." Tom bowed his head and laughed at himself He smiled, "According to my current life plan, I hope to become a Minister of Magic who can contribute to the wizarding world, but I don't want to be a Dark Lord who only destroys."

"So, Grandpa Faol wants you to find other soul pieces and destroy them? But then, you just said that you are also a soul piece, and you exist. Wouldn't Voldemort also escape death?" Anita paused , "And who can guarantee that you won't become Voldemort for the second time?"

"No, Voldemort will not escape death because of my existence. I have accepted Archibald's dragon's blood and am now an independent soul. Voldemort is just another person to me, a failed other person."

"According to what you said, you are already independent, so why are you still looking for Voldemort's soul piece? Those have nothing to do with you, do they?"

"It was an exchange. Lord Archibald gave me dragon's blood to make me an independent soul. In return for his help, I needed to kill Voldemort. And when I was not an independent soul, I could Perceived to have other fragments of Voldemort's soul at Hogwarts."

"You mean, there is a fragment of Voldemort's soul in Hogwarts, is there an existence like you?" Anita couldn't imagine that there was a terrible Dark Lord hiding in a corner of Hogwarts.

"No, they rely on Horcruxes to exist, and they won't stand and talk to you like me, but they will invade the soul, induce people's negative emotions, and feed on it, and grow slowly."

"Honestly, I think it's scarier than them standing and talking to me," Anita felt that Hogwarts was really dangerous. "So what do you want me to do for you by being so honest?"

"Isn't the best way to get along with smart people is to be honest, but I do need your help with something," Tom smiled at Anita, "I just said, I think The four treasures of Hogwarts will become Voldemort's Horcrux, Gryffindor's sword, and Ravenclaw's crown. These two should be in Hogwarts. As for Slytherin's locket and Hufflepuff The strange Holy Grail is now missing."

Anita was taken aback when Tom mentioned the four treasures of Hogwarts with great certainty, "The Auerbach family has been looking for those things for a long time, but there is no news. How did you determine that they are in Hogwarts?" of."

"Maybe it's because I'm lucky," Tom thought carefully for a while, "Dumbledore is now concentrating on nurturing his boys and is very defensive about me. I always meet him every day when I walk around Hogwarts, So I need your help, after all, killing Voldemort is what you want, isn't it, and I thought you'd be happy to help."

"Yes, that is what I am looking forward to. Of course I will help you, but I will directly hand over the found Horcrux to Archibald."

"In fact, those Horcruxes are useless to me, and my soul has no connection with them."

"That's good." Anita got up to leave the room.

Tom covered his mouth in surprise, "Do you know how to get back?"

Anita paused. They came here through the portrait just now, and she really didn't know how to get here.

"Come on, eat a piece of strawberry cake and take a rest, we can go back to the lounge together later."

"It's almost curfew time..."

"Don't worry, no one can find it here."

"I don't want to be outside the Slytherin lounge at curfew."

"Oh, I really can't help you. Well, I'll go out with you, but when I tell you to close your eyes, you must listen to me." Tom put down the teacup in his hand, got up and walked to the gate.

"what?"

"Hogwarts nights are so full of incredible things that even I'm not sure what's behind every door in Hogwarts Castle."

"Where did you take me?"

"The eighth floor of Hogwarts Castle." Tom opened the door, and there was a dark scene outside. "No one usually comes here, so things other than people often hang around here."

"Can't we go back from the portrait?" Anita cast a lumos on her wand, and she saw the red carpet in the hallway, and the silhouette of armor against the wall.

"Okay, but we'll have to wait a minute, something's passing over there."

"Is it a ghost? Those guys have nothing to be afraid of..." Anita's voice became smaller and smaller, and she heard some sounds. It was the sound of water being pushed aside, and a huge monster was sliding on the water.

"Close your eyes," said Tom, lifting his right arm and covering Anita's eyes with his large sleeve.

Anita's eyes were blocked by Tom's sleeve, and she could only hear the sound of the water getting louder, mixed with some eerie hissing, that something was coming.

Finally the sound of the water stopped, but the creepy sound rang in Anita's ears again. At that moment, fear spread in Anita's chest.

The voice stopped.

And from above Anita came the same terrible hissing sound.

It's Tom. What's he talking about?

Before she had time to think about it, Anita felt something slipping by her calf. It was a cold touch, which made people tremble and scalp numb.

Anita felt that she couldn't take it anymore, she wanted to scream, and the thing finally slid over Anita's calf and went away.

Tom gradually lowered his right arm, and Anita saw the empty hallway.

"What's that?" Anita was surprised that her voice was trembling, and she coughed in embarrassment.

"...the basilisk."

"How did it get out of the Forbidden Forest... Wait, you were talking about basilisks? There are basilisks in Hogwarts?"

Anita thought that there would be no scarier thing in the world than Tom being Voldemort's soul movie. Unexpectedly, after only a few minutes, this record was broken again.

"Why is there a basilisk in Hogwarts?"

"That's the Slytherin basilisk. He left it in the Chamber of Secrets before he left Hogwarts. It's been here since Hogwarts was built."

"You opened the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets?" Anita looked at Tom in disbelief. "The basilisk is an extremely dangerous creature, and you let it out!"

"Well, I didn't want to. In my fifth grade, I found the Chamber of Secrets. I was very proud. A Slytherin opened the Chamber of Secrets that only the real heir of Slytherin can open. I think you can understand what it means But, I regretted it right away, and I found out that I released a demon. It listened to Slytherin's order not to hurt all pure-blood students, but it didn't listen to me. When I found it dangerous, it once Tried ordering it to go back into the chamber, but the answer it gave me was that it was going to kill me."

"Since you know it's a demon, why did you open the chamber again?"

"No, I only opened the secret room once, and that time I didn't think about how to deal with it, so I was split out, and then the Horcrux I was relying on was found, and I agreed to Archibald's condition to come Arrived at Hogwarts, and on the first night at Hogwarts, I heard the voice of the basilisk greeting me, and I didn't understand what was going on."

"Why didn't the basilisk have any news before, but it became active again after you arrived? And just now it passed by you and talked to you."

"I really don't know why it has been so active recently. As for the conversation with it just now... I even suggested that you eat a piece of strawberry cake before going out. If you insist on going back to the lounge, then of course I can only say something nice to make it Be happy, otherwise can we still stand here?" Tom was a little bit dumbfounded.

"Okay, I'll trust you for now, but I have to tell Principal Dumbledore about the basilisk." Anita looked at Tom seriously.

"It would be great for you to tell Dumbledore that the basilisk has been in Hogwarts for so many years, and it is time for it to go where it should go," Tom breathed a sigh of relief, "Before I I also want to tell Dumbledore about the basilisk, but every time I see him, I can’t tell, I’m afraid he will kick me out of school after knowing what happened back then, and I really don’t know where to go.”

"Don't worry, I won't mention you to Principal Dumbledore."

Tom smiled in relief, and led Anita towards the portrait of Slytherin with his fluorescently lit wand.

Anita looked at the black figure in front of her, feeling a little complicated.

Did he bring me here today so I could tell Dumbledore about the basilisk, was he trying to make up for his mistakes?

Could it be that he really wants to be a Minister of Magic who can make some contribution to the wizarding world...

This is really unbelievable...

If Voldemort was like this when he was a teenager, how much stimulation did he have to finally become that terrible Dark Lord...

So, is he faking...

Or, he changed his personality because of the split soul...

Anita looked at the black-haired boy in front of her, and fell into a deep entanglement.
