Hogwarts: I graduated before the system came

Douglas couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. If it was completely unrecognizable and Dumbledore couldn't confirm that it was Voldemort's thing, it would be troublesome.

He pointed at the diary with his wand and found that except for some residual aura of black magic, the diary was almost the same as an ordinary book.

And the aura of black magic is slowly dissipating.

Douglas was startled and quickly took out the wand he used during school and cast a very weak dark magic protection spell on the diary to prevent the dark magic aura from spreading. These are all evidence.

Douglas picked up a small branch and turned it into a small bag.

Then he stuffed the diary into his bag with disgust, and then cancelled the summoned dark cloud.

He looked around and found that Voldemort's final roar did not summon any snakes. Perhaps he had summoned some, but was scared away by the lightning just now.

This made Douglas feel very sorry. He had heard from his Slytherin classmates that there were some runes in the Forbidden Forest that were released by the descendants of Salazar Slytherin.

But after searching for several times, except for finding traces of a runespoor once to prove that what the other party said was true, he never had the chance to see a real runespoor.

Don't get me wrong, he was just curious about this three-headed snake, that's all.

I thought Voldemort could summon this kind of snake, but what a disappointment.

Suddenly Douglas heard the sound of horse hooves coming from the woods not far away.

He muttered something unlucky.

Then quickly extinguish the glow charm.

It transformed in the darkness and flew away in another direction.

Deliver the diary to Dumbledore quickly while it's still warm.

Just as he left, two centaurs holding torches and carrying bows and arrows behind them appeared in the area struck by lightning.

One of the centaurs glanced around with a torch and said with certainty:

"A human appeared here just now. I smelled the scent of black magic, but it was shattered by the thunder of justice, leaving behind these traces."

The other centaur sniffed hard and said doubtfully:

"Bain, why do I smell a familiar scent... Alas, the celestial phenomena have changed again recently..."

PS: Shenxiao Zhenglei Curse: After graduating, Professor Holmes accidentally obtained a book called "Thunder Theory" written by Sa Shoujian, the founder of the Eastern Shenxiao School, which was lost among the people.

Due to the differences in the cultivation systems, Professor Holmes adopted the theory of "Thunder Theory" and combined it with the weather spells of the Western magic world to invent a series of thunder spells. The Shenxiao Zhenglei Spell is one of the most powerful thunder spells, which is specifically designed to restrain black magic.

Thunderfall Spell: The spell is "Thunderfall + Quantity". Currently, Professor Holmes can drop up to 800 thunders at the same time, with a release range of 20 meters.

Chapter 107 He gave a lot, but I rejected it

After returning to the castle, Douglas took a hot bath first.

A glance at the Marauder's Map showed Dumbledore in his office.

Then he came to the principal's office with the diary.

He began to make up commands to the huge stone beast. Yes, you read that right, he just made up commands.

"Ice lemonade!"

"Cockroach pile!"

"Sour Pop Candy?"

"Toffee fingers?"

"Zizzy Bee Candy?"

"..."

Douglas listed a bunch of dessert names and tried all the hot pot names.

The stone monster remained indifferent.

He even used a sound transmission charm, but the principal's office seemed to have the highest level of protection, and he could not determine the location of the office no matter what method he used.

(He just invented the Voice Transmission Charm based on the Patronus Charm. The Patronus Charm was invented by Dumbledore and only members of the Order of the Phoenix can use it.)

This really disappointed Douglas, who had wanted to share this exciting news with Dumbledore.

As a result, the other party did not open the door.

Yelling?

Dumbledore's office is on the eighth floor, but the entrance is on the third floor, so no one can hear him even if he shouts at the top of his lungs.

"Forget it, if I have this much time I might as well go to the kitchen and make some midnight snacks."

Douglas thought about it and turned and left.

He took two steps but still didn't give up. He suddenly turned around and said to the stone monster:

"Dragon Beard Candy?"

"Wife cake?"

Having said that, he was ready to turn around and leave.

Suddenly, the stone monster jumped aside and the wall behind it tore open, revealing a spiral staircase that was rising.

Douglas didn't have time to think and jumped up the stairs.

As he ascended the spiral staircase, he suddenly felt a chill on his back.

He swore to God that the last sentence was just something he said casually, and he didn't expect the other party to open the door at all.

If I remember correctly, wife cake was the gift he brought to Professor Dumbledore during his interview.

Why is the password this?

What does Dumbledore mean?

Is this person waiting for me?

The spiral staircase led to the main entrance of the principal's office.

He quickly gathered his thoughts and pushed open a shiny oak door. This time it did not become difficult to open.

When he arrived at the office, it was not as Douglas had imagined. Dumbledore was not sitting there waiting for him, and there were eight hundred swordsmen and axemen lying in ambush on both sides. Of course, Dumbledore did not need eight hundred swordsmen and axemen to deal with him.

The office was empty, but the paintings on the wall were awakened by Douglas, or perhaps they had never slept.

Phineas yelled, "Thief! A thief broke into the principal's office in the middle of the night!"

The other principals had different opinions: "Phineas, the fact that he can come in means he has Albus's password, so he is not a thief."

Fox the Phoenix, lying on his shelf, looked very old and almost dead.

There was also a can of super spicy food next to it, which I tasted bit by bit.

When he saw Douglas come in, he seemed indifferent.

At this time, Dumbledore appeared on the handrail of the stairs.

Wearing a nightgown, he yawned and said:

"Good evening, Douglas.

I heard the door open, and it's obvious you guessed the password."

Douglas joked:

"Ahaha, I guess the professor must have reminded me that the gift was only given once, haha!"

Phineas, who had been pretending to sleep upon hearing Dumbledore's voice, shouted again:

"See, I was right, wasn't I? He's the thief, he doesn't have the password... and he even tried to bribe the principal..."

The portraits of the principals in the other frames rushed forward and covered Felix's mouth while quietly scolding him.

Dumbledore and Douglas ignored him and smiled at each other.

Then Douglas took the notebook out of the bag and put it on the table.

Then he stuffed the bag into his pocket. He didn't want Dumbledore to recognize the bag as a branch from the Forbidden Forest after the bag was untransfigured.

"Good evening, Professor. I got something today that I felt I needed to show you."

Dumbledore looked at the tattered diary and frowned.

He glanced at Douglas who nodded at him and guessed that this might be the thing he had been looking for.

So Dumbledore drew his wand and pointed at it.

Even after leaning down and carefully identifying those words,

He stood up straight, adjusted his glasses, looked at Douglas and asked seriously:

"Tom Riddle?"

Douglas nodded, and then began his sincere explanation:

"yes.

When Miss Luna Lovegood first gave me the diary, I noticed the name on it.

I remember Professor Snape had previously inquired about the name 'Tom Marvolo Riddle'.

So I wonder if this is Voldemort's real name..."

Dumbledore seemed to believe Douglas's words. He motioned him to sit down and ordered a cup of hot tea for him.

"You guessed it right, that was his former name...

However, I remember that Miss Lovegood was only in the first grade and should not be able to destroy this thing.

From the traces of magic left on it, I feel that this must have been a very powerful magic item.

As for why Miss Lovegood got Tom's things, I have some guesses.

But why did she choose to give it to you, and how did she get it?"

Douglas took a sip of tea and continued with a relaxed look:

"It's simple. Miss Lovegood thought I needed this thing, so she sent it to me..."

Dumbledore picked up a Dobby Bean and put it in his mouth. Judging from his expression, it seemed to taste good. After hearing Douglas's words, he looked at him with a puzzled look.

Douglas laughed in his heart, and I had the same expression at that time.

Then explained:

"According to Miss Lovegood, the day after we visited the Ravenclaw common room,

She received the diary via owl, just as we had guessed.

Later, she only needed to write a sentence in this diary with a pen to get a reply from the other party.

During this period, the Diary repeatedly asked her about me and her father, Mr. Xenophilius Lovegood, the editor-in-chief of The Quibbler.

After much deliberation, Miss Lovegood decided to hand over this diary of unknown origin to me...

I think Miss Lovegood's behavior as a Hogwarts student is really impeccable.

Being able to keenly judge danger, and being able to calmly analyze the situation once you know you are in danger, and then seek help from the professor, is exactly the quality we Hogwarts students need. What do you think, professor? "

Dumbledore leaned back in his chair, chewing some candy as he watched Douglas tell his story.

Obviously, he didn't expect Douglas to ask him this question suddenly.

“Oh, oh, I mean yes, Douglas.

I couldn't agree more with you on this point, and I wish every student at Hogwarts could be like Miss Lovegood...

Of course, our focus today is not to discuss this.

You continue, and then what?

Why did the diary become like this?"

Douglas took a sip of black tea and continued:

"All right.

Later, I began to write some words in my diary according to Miss Lovegood's prompts.

I asked him if he was Voldemort.
