MTL - I Wield a Sword at Hogwarts-Chapter 65
Ginny's face was filled with nervousness, and Percy kept comforting her.
After arriving, Ginny trembled a little when she saw John. Percy also explained: "Sorry, she is just a little scared, as you know, the monster in the secret room."
"I know."
John stared at Ginny. He could see the fear in Ginny's expression.
This is not pretending. At least Ginny like this cannot put a crushing curse on her back.
John looked at her and asked softly: "Ginny, you did it, right?"
Ginny's body trembled, tears streamed from the corners of her eyes, and she nodded.
"What did you do?" Percy didn't know why.
Ginny opened her mouth and choked up: "I don't know why. I was very scared. I thought he influenced me, so I threw him away."
John's mind moved and he asked: "Who is he?"
Ginny burst into tears. She was under too much pressure during this time, and she felt as if she had released the monster.
"Riddle, a diary."
Listening to Ginny's words, Percy couldn't believe it. He looked at John, urgently needing answers, "John, tell me what happened!"
John pondered: "I originally thought Ginny was chosen as the heir of Slytherin, but looking at it now, it might be the diary."
Riddle.
Tom Riddle.
Voldemort's surname.
When he heard this name, John knew that he was related to Voldemort.
With a serious look on his face, John asked, "Where did you throw the diary?"
He needs to get the diary before others pick it up.
Chapter 76 The Missing Diary and the Duel Club
Three hurried figures shuttled through Hogwarts Castle.
This combination is very strange, one Slytherin, two Gryffindors, one of whom is also the prefect of Gryffindor.
They walked all the way to the girls' bathroom on the second floor, opened the door of the bathroom, and walked inside.
"Where!"
Percy was really angry this time. His sister almost became the heir of Slytherin.
He grabbed Ginny's shoulders so hard that Ginny couldn't help but cry out.
"Sorry, Ginny, come on, tell us, where is that thing?" Realizing that his reaction was too strong, Percy apologized quickly.
Ginny slowly stretched out her hand and pointed to a sink.
John and Percy looked at each other. They walked over and saw nothing.
"Things are missing?" John frowned.
Percy was anxious and irritated. He quickly turned to Ginny and said loudly: "Are you sure you remember correctly?"
"I, I remember it was here."
Ginny was so frightened that she shed tears again, and Percy punched the mirror angrily.
"Percy, stop!"
John stopped him from doing this. He shouted with a solemn expression: "Myrtle, are you there?"
"Of course I'm here."
Myrtle flew out of the broken toilet bowl.
John breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Besides us, is there anyone else coming?"
"Others? Three Gryffindor students."
The translucent body flew past, and Myrtle chuckled.
"It was Ron and the others, they took the diary?"
Percy, who once caught three little ones in the girls' bathroom, immediately thought of them and said with a straight face: "I'll go find them."
"Wait Percy, don't make any noise."
John stopped him, shook his head and said, "Now that the whereabouts of the diary are unknown, let's not alert the enemy. I need you to use your position to search the Gryffindor lounge."
They were close to the truth. John held down the excited Percy and said word by word: "Don't tell anyone until you find that person. This is not just because of Ginny."
"Okay, I'll help."
Percy is also a person who can obtain twelve certificates. He does not lack wisdom, but is too rigid.
If Ginny's affairs are known to outsiders, it may have an impact not only on herself, but also on the Weasley family.
In severe cases, they may even be sent to Azkaban.
Although Percy is rigorous and rigid in his work, he will not send his sister to Azkaban.
They made a tacit agreement to conceal the matter, and Ginny was comforted and taken back.
During this period, in order to make sure that Ginny was not lying and to protect Ginny from being controlled for the second time, John gave Ginny a Whomping Willow amulet.
"Keep it on and don't take it off at any time."
John warned seriously, Ginny looked pale and nodded hurriedly.
Send Ginny away.
…
The next day, Percy found John.
He personally sent Ginny back to Gryffindor Tower yesterday. When the Weasley twins discovered this scene, they came over and started to gossip.
Until Percy got angry and drove his two brothers away, and told them to keep an eye on Ginny and not let her leave alone.
This made the Weasley twins suspicious, but they were also frightened by Percy's tone.
"George and Fred must think I'm crazy."
Percy sighed. He also felt that he had been a little too harsh on his brothers yesterday.
John glanced at Percy sympathetically. The Weasley twins were not gas-efficient guys. With these two younger brothers, it was no wonder that Percy had a headache.
"Find the diary after a while, and we can end this. Gryffindor will leave it to you, and Penelo Crevat will trouble you to tell her, after all, she is your girlfriend."
Speaking of this, John's tone was ridiculing.
"You, how do you know?"
Percy stammered, as if someone had discovered a secret.
"I just happened to know that you and Penelo Crevat were dating while on patrol." John smiled half-heartedly.
This made Percy call Merlin's beard, this monster, what else can be hidden from him.
Percy didn't know that John owned the Marauder's Map, and when he was stationed at the Heir, he saw Percy hanging out with Ravenclaw Prefect Penelope Crevat from time to time.
If he didn’t know this, John would just tear up the Marauder’s Map.
After waving his hand, John left Percy with a mysterious expression and left.
December has arrived.
Before Christmas, Professor McGonagall collected the detention lists as usual.
Originally, John was planning to go back this Christmas, but now that the secret room matter has not been resolved, he will not go back.
Ask Basil to send a letter to Mrs. Wick, and attach two wizard cards.
Ever since daddy Watson Wick learned about wizard cards by eating chocolate frogs, he fell in love with these cards with moving figures.
John was also forced to collect some. He was thinking about exchanging some with Ron, but unfortunately his father insisted on collecting them by himself.
Because of the devil's training, Neville's fat face became a bit sharper.
Malfoy took the initiative to find John and wanted John to teach him.
After all, after a semester, everyone could see that John was the real Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.
To this end, John listed a series of training plans for Malfoy. One of them, like Neville, went to the Shrieking Shack to train his courage.
There is a saying that Malfoy is not much more courageous than Neville.
During the potions class, some unscrupulous guy threw a Libre firework into the crucible, and the explosion caused the entire class to become an accident.
When the swelling potion was about to fly in front of him, John subconsciously raised his hand, and the potion was deflected by the invisible barrier and flew out.
Glancing at Crabbe, who was still gloating about his misfortune but then turned around and was splashed, he pretended that nothing happened.
Professor Snape was really worried. John noticed that among the few people present who were not affected, apart from himself, Harry was the only one left.
And Hermione didn't know where she ran. He squinted his eyes and smelled a conspiracy.
"John Wick, you are responsible for refining the anti-swelling agent."
John was innocently shot, and the anti-swelling agent was not enough, so John was temporarily brought in as a manpower.
Of course, extra points are required.
John did not give up on finding the heir. Although he did not alert the enemy, all the prefects of the four houses got involved.
He didn't call too many people. Once he heard it was about the heir, the prefects actively cooperated.
Therefore, many people's dormitories were turned over, which made students from various houses suspect that Hogwarts was broken into.
Percy focused on searching his younger brother. He was afraid that the Weasley twins would keep the diary just for fun.
It's a pity that there is nothing else except a bunch of prank props.
Ron didn't let it go either. He searched it several times and threw the rat lying on the bed aside.
A week has passed.
John thought everything would be fine before Christmas, but he was wrong.
There is an extra piece of parchment on the bulletin board, and Lockhart is causing trouble again.
"So...you don't have any points?"
John looked at Lockhart, who was pleading with him, telling you to stop causing trouble and start a dueling club.
Forget about setting up a duel club, you actually have the nerve to ask me for support.
John had a dark face, and Lockhart shrank his neck and said with a smile: "John, I know you have a way, just like this."
He took out his amulet and ring. In one class, he experienced the benefits of this thing, so he started to think wrongly.
How could the great Lockhart not be in the limelight?
John glanced at him and said calmly: "Everything has a price, Gilderoy."
Not Professor Lockhart, but Gilderoy.
Lockhart also understood what John meant. There was a struggle on his face, but he finally bowed slightly and gritted his teeth and said, "I hope Gilderoy Lockhart can become your friend."
"Well, I won't refuse my friend's request."
John raised his chin slightly, Lockhart was now among his own connections.
He never hesitated to cultivate connections and took out two magic rings and two amulets from his small bag.
Inside the amulet is an iron armor spell, and the calamities of the spells are different. Except for one being a disarming spell and a petrification spell, the other difference is that they are no longer one-time use, but can be used three times in a row.
This is the result of John's alchemy upgrade. This alone is enough to make Johnny Silverhand irreplaceable among Aurors.
Lockhart felt like he had found a treasure.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Lockhart personally designed the crescent stage in the auditorium.
John did not expect that Lockhart would dare to find an assistant, and this assistant was Professor Snape.
