Chapter 48: Second confrontation

Time flies quickly and turns into February.

After a brief communication on Christmas, Ai Wen did not try to contact Tom Riddle again. He thought that it was very necessary to leave the opponent for a while.

The atmosphere in the school has been tense, although there have been no more attacks since Justin Finlay was attacked, and Mandela has begun to mature, but most of the students are still arrogant.

In this case, Lockhart seems to think that he needs to do something.

When a dark magic defense class is about to go to class, he said to everyone, "You don't have to worry about it. The secret room will never be opened. Those criminals must already know that I will catch them sooner or later, just A question of time. Hey, I haven’t started to pack them, it’s wise to stop now.”

There was a talk in the audience, and most people expressed doubts about his statement.

"What is needed in school now is to encourage morale and eliminate the bad things in memory! I can't say more now, but I think I have the confidence."

By the time of breakfast on February 14th, everyone knows what way Lockhart is using to boost morale.

When Avon entered the auditorium early in the morning, he saw four large walls of dazzling pink flowers. To make matters worse, there are many heart-shaped confetti that keep falling from the light blue ceiling.

In the teacher's seat, Lockhart wore bright pink robes that matched the decorations, and the professors sitting across from him were all squinting. Professor McGonagall’s muscles on his cheeks swelled up; as for Snape’s appearance, it was as if someone had just given him a large glass of spirits.

Next, Lockhart made a self-proclaimed announcement, and he arranged a small surprise for everyone.

From the doors leading to the foyer, striding into the twelve gloomy dwarfs, unlike the usual dwarfs, they all had golden wings and a harp.

Loha insists that they are friendly, little love gods with greeting cards!

He encourages students to use them to deliver Valentine's Day cards, or to ask Snape how to modulate Ecstasy.

Ai Wen didn't know if anyone dared to ask Snape for the ecstasy modulation method, but these dwarfs kept rushing through the school and sending Valentine's Day cards.

Among them, he received the most greeting cards, nearly two hundred.

This made him the most unpopular person by the teachers. When a dwarf broke into the deformation class for the twelfth time, Professor McGonagall ugly and pulled Evan out of the classroom with the other party.

The two men looked at each other for a long time in the corridor. The dwarf seemed to remember his mission. This time he brought a singing Valentine's Day gift to Ai Wen.

But Avon is faster than him. He pulls out his wand, and a neat "lock tongue" spell quiets the whole world.

In order to prevent other dwarfs from harassing themselves, Ai Wen went down to the common room with a frustration, and there was no one in the quiet.

He couldn't force the bag to be thrown onto the sofa, and Tom Riddle's diary fell out of it.

Ai Wen’s eyes flashed, and this coincidence was not so happy. He determined that his schoolbag would not be loose.

It seems that after more than a month of cold, the other party has been a little too late.

Ai Wen opened the diary and didn't wait for him to write. There was an article on it, which perfectly solved the last time he had the potion class.

"Ridel, I have already completed the assignment, and Professor Snape gave me a bad evaluation. My problem now is..." Ai Wen’s mouth is slightly upturned, and he will immediately The problems encountered in the magic research process were written up.

After about a minute, there was another answer on the diary.

Riddle made a perfect answer to the problems encountered by Ai Wen, which gave him a feeling of openness and a few, even more in-depth than the understanding of the professors.

In this way, Ai Wen began to communicate with Tom Riddle for the second time.

Every night, when everyone is asleep, he quietly takes out the diary and writes about the difficulties he encountered in magic research. The problem is getting more and more difficult, and many of them are not ordinary sorcerers. Should be mastered.

Riddle didn't seem to notice that it was still Ai Wen asking what he answered, and sometimes even actively teaching the relevant magic knowledge.

In addition to answering questions, Riddle always wanted to talk to Ai Wen about the secret room. He also wanted to tell him who opened the secret room 50 years ago.

But every time Evan moved the topic at the most critical time or directly closed the diary, Riddle gradually adapted to Avon's leaping communication. A strange tacit agreement between the two is often that he first talks about a relationship with the secret room, and then it is the question time of Ai Wen.

As a young Voldemort, Tom Riddle has a very strong knowledge base, and he can answer almost all the questions that Ai Wen has raised as long as he is willing.

From the simplest classroom assignments to the most profound magical theories.

For example, the method of recording sounds that plagued Avon for a long time, Riddle gave him an improved copying spell, which can save a piece of sound on any item, saving time and the magic intensity of the caster and using the material.

Thanks to Riddle's help, the overall level of the "Academic Research" section of the "Hogwarts Magic" is no longer full of boring articles such as sly, horned beasts, but magic research in the true sense. .

After a metamorphosis class, Professor McGonagall even told Ai Wen that she was surprised by the depth of his research on the deformation of Animagus.

In addition, Mr. Gu Fei, editor-in-chief of the Daily Prophet, who has been paying attention to this newspaper, also expressed his willingness to reprint some of the research articles. Ai Wen even received many drafts of professional magic academic journals.

Of course, most of these are the results of Tom Riddle's research.

I don't know the editors of the magazines that have been drafted by Ivan. After I know that the academic articles they published are written by Voldemort, will they be directly scared to faint.

In just over a month, Ai Wen progressed very fast.

He learned from Riddle a lot of theoretical knowledge that would not be taught in class, including black magic. In fact, the other party seems to have been consciously or unintentionally teaching black magic to Ai Wen, and encouraging him to use these magic in words.

Initially, Ai Wen did not feel any abnormality.

He simply feels that these magical powers are very large and much larger than normal spells.

After consulting Professor Flitwick, he realized that these were the black magic that Tom Riddle had been teaching himself.

Until that time, Ai Wen did not realize the seriousness of the problem. He even thinks that knowing more about some black magic is very helpful for improving his strength.

After a long period of time, he finally noticed that something was wrong. These black magic seemed to have a negative impact on his thinking. He gradually became irritable, violent, and sensitive. When he practiced using these black magic, there were some cruel thoughts in his head.

Especially in the recent conflict with Malfoy, Ai Wen didn't even think about taking out his wand and using a spell he just learned.

This curse is somewhat similar to Snape's invention of "the gods have no shadow", but the power is even greater. If it is hit, Malfoy estimates that there are many evils, because Tom Riddle has not taught him to curse.

Fortunately, Ai Wen was awake at the last moment, and the curse was hit in the air beside him, and no one made the consequences of unreturnable.

This incident made him afraid, this is an extremely dangerous signal.

He suddenly understood why Riddle was uncharacteristic and taught himself the reasons for this magical knowledge. This is one of his confusing means.

Riddle is looking for a loophole in Ai Wen's mind. Since Ai Wen is full of wariness and is not interested in the Chamber of Secrets, he uses powerful magical power to lure him down. If Ai Wen is lost in power, then Riddle can take the opportunity to control him.

Even if he can't control it, Ai Wen's final result is likely to become an evil black wizard like Voldemort.

Since then, Ai Wen has never dared to touch the diary, Tom Riddle is so terrible, he can gradually control a person's mind invisibly.

Even like Ai Wen, the person who is highly vigilant from the very beginning is no exception.
