I became Voldemort

Chapter 71: Talking

The weather is gradually starting to get hotter.

Looking up, the sky seems to have become higher. This was originally a good weather for playing Quidditch, but the Quidditch game has been canceled, and even wanting to go for a walk is a luxury.

There was no one in the corridor between classes, and the professors who were walking around on guard did not allow anyone to stay. Even to go to class, the little wizards had to line up one by one and be personally escorted by the Professors.

The entire school was in an extremely depressed state. Even in the Gryffindor common room, no one was willing to make trouble. Everyone was in a panic and wanted to get through this semester as soon as possible.

Professor McGonagall really wanted to have everything sorted out, and it would be best to find the Heir, but there was no clue at all right now. She wasn't as able to see the whole situation as Dumbledore was, but fortunately, it wasn't the worst yet. The students who were attacked can still be saved. They just need to wait for the mandrake to mature and wake them up. Perhaps by then, the real culprit will be found.

For this reason, she was also worried that the attacker might silence the petrified students, and the hospital wing became a "heavily guarded" place. Harry and Ron wanted to see Hermione again but were stopped.

Now, I am afraid that only the students of Slytherin House are not worried at all. The people who were attacked were mostly Mudbloods, which proved that their house was not the successor's target from the beginning. Rather, the successor is likely to be one of them.

This greatly encouraged them, and every time they looked at people from other houses during class, they couldn't help but feel proud.

Especially Malfoy!

When Cyrus returned the body to him, he modified a little bit of his memory. Now he doesn't notice anything wrong at all, but if he carefully recalls his experiences in the past few months, he will find that there are no relevant memories in his brain at all, and there is only a fog.

He didn't notice anything was wrong at all and walked around the school as if he had just been appointed Head Boy.

Moreover, he mingled with two old friends, Goyle Crabbe, and he was very happy that Dumbledore was kicked out of school. But in fact, it wasn't that he hated Dumbledore or doubted Dumbledore's ability. It was just that the person who facilitated this incident was his father, so he was very proud.

When Cyrus came out of class today, Cyrus saw Ron walking into the common room very angry, with Harry and their roommate Andy comforting him.

"Okay, Ron - don't be so impulsive. You are familiar with what kind of a person he is." Dean patted Ron on the back. He himself was a Half-blood wizard and naturally hated Malfoy very much. But he's not as impulsive as Ron.

"If you two hadn't stopped me, I would have given him a few punches. I would have killed him with my bare hands without a wand." Ron still felt regretful thinking about it now.

Seeing how angry he was, Cyrus immediately walked over and asked, "What's the matter?"

"It's Malfoy -" Harry said helplessly, "You know how much of a bastard he is, I miss you a little bit..." Halfway through his sentence,

Dean thought Harry was referring to Ginny at the duel club. Something about beating up Slytherin.

"He said that the next 'Mudblood' to be attacked will definitely die, and he also said that it's a pity that it's not Hermione!" Ron said angrily, "If I were the heir, I would kill this little bastard first!"

"He's still acting weird with Snape." Seamus heard their conversation and came over, imitated Malfoy, holding his throat, and repeated his words in a pretentious manner:

"I already knew that my father would drive Dumbledore away. Professor Snape, why don't you apply for the position of Headmaster?"

Cyrus looked at his performance with a sense of nausea. But Seamus didn't stop. He turned around and imitated Snape, shaking his non-existent hair:

"Why, Mr. Malfoy, Professor Dumbledore has only been temporarily suspended by the Board, I bet he will be back among us soon." He switched back and forth between the two characters.

"Yeah, that's right, Professor, if you apply for this position, I guess my father will vote for you. I will tell my father that you are the best teacher here, professor..."

Seamus looked even more disgusting than Cyrus, and shook his head with disgust: "Don't you know how proud Snape is? I dare say you have never seen him so happy in your life."

Snape was indeed looking a little proud because he was not without complaints against Dumbledore. But it's hard to say that he was happy.

What good would it do him to have Dumbledore driven away?

On the contrary, the successor is still roaming in the school. What if it is Voldemort? Snape just wanted Voldemort to die——

Even if it wasn't Voldemort, if the other party continued to attack, the school would have to be closed. At that time, where could he go? 

What happiness could he have there?

In that place that gave him a gloomy past...

At least one thing about him was similar to the boy named Harry Potter, and that was that they both considered Hogwarts their true home.

Then they scolded Malfoy together. There was another Hufflepuff student who also upset Ron, but that was nothing compared to Lockhart.

"Do you know what that guy said? He insisted that Hagrid was the culprit!" Ron said, "I think Harry almost wanted to kill him with a book, and I was almost the same."

"We all misunderstood Hagrid." Cyrus could only say regretfully.

Dean and Seamus left after a while. Even on such a day, the school did not announce that it would cancel the exam. They planned to review first to avoid the results being too ugly.

"Hermione would be heartbroken if she knew about this. I'm afraid she wouldn't want to miss any exams." Cyrus made a little joke to lighten the atmosphere.

"I'm just the opposite." Ron said, focusing on Cyrus, "Can I ask you something Mr. Riddle...?"

Cyrus nodded, and Ron suddenly looked happy:

"Then I have an idea!"

"How about I let you possess me and then you help me take the exam?"

"Don't even think about it." Cyrus rolled his eyes. Ron really didn't disappoint in terms of opportunism. "The exam is to test how much knowledge you have mastered. You shouldn't avoid it."

"You sound like Hermione," Ron said disappointedly, but soon, they mentioned to Cyrus what they had discovered in the Herbology class today.

"Mr. Riddle," Harry lowered his voice, "do you remember what Hagrid said earlier? 'If someone wants to find something, they can just follow the spider and they will find it in the right direction.'"

"He saw the spider going to the Forbidden Forest. Of course, I think it might not be the Forbidden Forest, maybe it's not that far." Ron said almost as if praying.

Spiders alone are enough for him, let alone going to the Forbidden Forest!

But thinking of the heir of Slytherin and the petrified Hermione, he didn't want to back down. At least he knew Harry would never give up.

"Then let's take action tonight!"

Cyrus couldn't wait.
