The past two months are undoubtedly an extremely humiliating memory for Tom Riddle.
As a noble wizard, he almost tainted the blood flowing in his body from Salazar Slytherin-because during this time, he had to dress up as a stupid Muggle, and then Hanging out in the Muggles area.
This is a helpless choice. As the once famous European Dark Lord, the Ministry of Magic across Europe is now working hard to hunt him down, and they are everywhere.
What’s more terrible is that the witches and wizards from various countries all know his habit of mysterious people possessing snakes... It is said that all kinds of snakes in Albania have been killed quickly in the past two months. Extinct. Of course, that might just be a rumor.
But Tom Riddle knew that he had to make a little change to survive that kind of carpet capture.
The only suitable choice is to be possessed by a Muggle...
The man he was attached to was originally a forest ranger, and this is also a profession with quite Muggle characteristics.
His duty is to patrol the surrounding forests daily, manage and investigate the fire sources that may appear in the forest area, report the fire in a timely manner, and stop poaching and illegal logging that damage forest resources.
This kind of duty is really too stupid and too boring... You only need to use a few protective magic around the forest, can't it be solved all, why do you need to repeat the inspection like this every day... Tom really can't Understand the behavior of those Muggles.
In the end, he could only continue to do so in the Muggle way—
After all, based on the level of search by the Wizarding World, even if he only used the simplest magic, it would attract the attention of countless Aurors overnight.
Then, in his current weak state, he could only get hold of this way.
Tom Riddle is like a Muggle, getting up early every morning, patrolling the forest area under his jurisdiction, recording any abnormalities in the forest area in detail, and returning to his house at dusk.
Day after day, the cycle goes back and forth.
Fortunately, this Muggle lives alone in a hut on the edge of the forest, and there are no other residents around the woodland, so he usually doesn't contact too many familiar people... Only once a month, A higher-level forest ranger will come here, and he needs to report the latest situation to the other party.
However, when I first met the superior, I carefully handed it to the other side the thick piles of parchment recorded in the previous month and the movements around the woodland... the other side looked at his weird expression. At one point Tom thought he was exposed.
Fortunately, the superiors didn't think much about it, they just patted Tom on the shoulder to let him continue to work hard, and then left without exception.
This also gave Tom a sigh of relief.
He still couldn't understand the thinking of these stupid Muggles.
Two months have passed, and the extent of searches in the surrounding area has also dropped a lot. Probably most of the wizards thought that the Dark Lord had left Albania.
But there must be an unwilling Auror around here.
Tom still didn't dare to slack off, his daily life, still just continued to repeat his usual Muggle behavior, so as not to cause any doubt.
Now, he can secretly communicate with the outside world through some special methods.
The mark of the black devil must be unusable, and once that is used, it will inevitably be detected.
However, he has other ways to contact Death Eaters!
Tom firmly believes that there are still many Death Eaters loyal to him who are also looking for him, waiting for his comeback...
Even though he didn't believe anyone anymore, after experiencing the betrayal of Barty Crouch Jr. and Wormtail, he could no longer trust anyone.
It's just that he needs help now to achieve his goal.
Come to realize his method of comeback!
...
At the international airport of Tirana (Albania's capital), we can often see some very strange guests recently.
They usually wear black or green cloaks, carry old-fashioned suitcases or suitcases, and look sneaky and mysterious. The most important thing is that the security guards who patrol the airport generally don’t look for them. People’s troubles are as if they can’t be seen at all.
But today, a man wearing a black robe and cloak appeared here.
His body is thin, his hair is straight, his eyes are cold and unfathomable, his complexion is waxy, and he has a big hooked nose...
If an Auror also showed up at this airport, it would be easy to recognize this man—
The second most wanted person on the most wanted list after the mysterious man, the most famous Death Eater currently at large, and the former Hogwarts Dark Arts Defense class professor: Severus Snape.
Even in this Muggle gathering place, Severus Snape seemed very careful... He pulled the hood of his cloak very low to prevent others from seeing his face, and then hurry up. Step forward.
At this moment, Snape suddenly stopped, and at the same time his right hand suddenly reached into the cloak, grasped the wand hidden inside, and the expression on his face suddenly became serious.
"Severus." Someone came quietly, patted him on the back lightly, and whispered his name.
"Ayden?" Snape was stunned, and then said loudly, "Sir, you admitted the wrong person."
When passing by, he added in a low voice: "Go and meet in the back corner of the front room."
At the same time he pointed his finger in the direction.
A few minutes later, the two people who just passed by successfully met again.
"You also accepted the Dark Lord's call?" Severus Snape gave him a stern look.
"Of course, you are not the only one who is still loyal to the Dark Lord, Severus." The Death Eater smiled and said, "We are all here!"
...
And an hour later, in the principal's office at Hogwarts.
Jon Hart looked straight at a portrait in front of him, and said solemnly: "In other words, the mysterious man started his plan again?"
"Yes." The principal in the portrait replied: "He has summoned all the Death Eaters who are still loyal to him."
Jon nodded thoughtfully: "Is the Dark Lord coming out of failure faster than I thought... We have to act."
