The next day.
"Have you heard?"
"Of course, John Wick, so handsome!"
"I didn't expect him to be real. He is our protector!"
"I heard what Colin said with my own ears, and there are pictures, oh my God, that thing is horrible."
Harry was discharged from the hospital and found Hermione and Ron refining the compound potion in the girls' bathroom.
"Oh my God, Harry, is that true?"
Ron was so excited that he couldn't express it. He had a photo in his hand.
Above, the basilisk came out and was hit by John's magic spell.
I have to say that Colin is really a photographer. This photo was taken just right as if it was staged.
Even the flying hair on John's face was captured just right.
Ron wanted to confirm with Harry, because this incident happened near the school hospital, and Harry must have seen it.
Harry was a little embarrassed. He was chatting with Dobby at that time and didn't notice this.
But he did see John being taken to the school hospital.
Hermione's heart ached, and she asked worriedly: "Is John seriously injured?"
"No."
Harry remembered that John had finished all his toffees yesterday, and said with a strange expression: "He's fine, but he's hungry."
This answer was beyond Ron's imagination, and Hermione breathed a sigh of relief.
Immediately, Hermione thought of a question and hesitated: "Should we continue? I mean the compound potion."
Originally, they refined the compound potion in order to pry something out of Malfoy's mouth, but John even fought off the monster, which seemed like what they were doing was useless.
Harry nodded decisively and said seriously: "Of course. Have you forgotten that Malfoy once slandered Muggle wizards? John met that thing. Maybe Malfoy wanted to kill John."
It's not surprising that Harry thought so. Malfoy caused a huge fuss at first, and because of this incident, John started the feat of challenging all Slytherins by himself.
With Malfoy's arrogant personality, it is not impossible to open the secret room and let the monster take revenge and kill John.
Hermione couldn't sit still at the thought of her friend being in danger.
They were still short of some ingredients for the compound potion, so Hermione turned to Snape.
As a Potions Master, no one has more materials than Snape.
...
Monday.
John was discharged from the hospital. Madam Pomfrey looked at John with a strange look on her face.
Because John said he was hospitalized, it was better to say he was staying in a hotel, and he didn’t stop eating.
John had a great appetite, and he thought it might be related to his poisoning.
But didn’t you say that you would have diarrhea? Why did your appetite get better instead?
John, who couldn't figure it out, stopped worrying. As he walked in the school, a crowd of adoring eyes looked at him.
He walked to the bulletin board and saw the top photo.
“It would be a huge loss for Colin not to be a photographer.”
Seeing that he looked so handsome in this photo, John began to wonder if he had staged the photo.
No one now doubts what John said because he really meant what he said.
The Weasley twins even got a bunch of John's things from nowhere and hawked: "Protector John Wick's personal socks to protect you from the heir."
"Wait, why do you have my socks!"
John thought Fred just said it casually, but it turned out that it was really his.
George said confidently: "Of course it's yours, we never sell fakes."
Fred blinked and whispered, "We spent a lot of money to get someone to open the door for us."
There are bad people among the masses.
Slytherin has been bribed, is there any justice?
John's face darkened, he approached George and Fred and whispered: "50-50 split."
"What?"
"We spent money!"
Ignoring the two's protests, John glanced at them and said calmly: "Then I will declare that you are selling fakes."
This time it cost the two of them their lives. This thing was so popular that they sold a lot of it.
If they are told that it is false, they are not allowed to be chased and beaten.
George said fiercely: "Take it, you Slytherin."
John was satisfied and asked if he could buy a new set of pencils individually.
Although I have money, no one can live with money.
John met Neville and fell silent when he saw that Neville was still wearing his scarf.
"Why are you wearing my scarf?"
"Well……"
Neville scratched his head, looking embarrassed.
This feeling is like being caught wearing Pinru's clothes.
John wanted to say that people should not be judged by their appearance, but he did not expect Neville to be such a person.
Fortunately, Neville explained that he bought the amulet from the twins, otherwise John would have to consider whether he should keep his distance.
"Don't you have a sword made by me? What's the use of getting a scarf?"
As if looking at a fool, John was speechless.
Neville thought about it carefully. It seemed that the sword was more useful than the scarf.
After arranging a power-up package for Neville, John also felt uneasy in class.
Wizards from other courtyards always crowded over, as if this way they felt more secure.
In the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, John saw Lockhart drawing something on the paper, as if he was designing a stage?
get out of class has ended.
John found Percy, hoping he could take Ginny to the Whomping Willow.
"Do you like Ginny?"
Percy looked wary, Ginny was his sister and she would never let anyone have ill intentions.
John was speechless. What are you thinking about? Ginny is the little brat who has nothing.
After repeatedly promising that he would never like Ginny, John saw Percy's hesitant agreement.
Now that the two are in a cooperative relationship, John should not hurt Ginny.
This can still be guaranteed.
The reason why John found Percy instead of Ron or the Weasley twins was because he was afraid that they would cause trouble.
Compared to Percy, the others were even more uncertain, especially the twins. If someone eavesdropped or something, he would be embarrassed.
Although it was confirmed that the heir was Ginny, John did not reveal it immediately.
He was confused as to why Weasley's people were able to open the Chamber of Secrets, where did she know about it, and the crushing spell, which was not something that could be used by a first grader.
With doubts, John came to the Whomping Willow in the afternoon.
The Whomping Willow has fully recovered. A little bird flew over and was beaten into a ball of feathers.
John was not idle while he was waiting. He recalled the spell he used to use Ironwyk's sword to enhance the sword's flames.
"Could it be stronger if you read it in dragon language?"
He took out Ironwick's sword and tried to recite a spell. The incantation recited in dragon language made the flames on the sword gradually turn into the shape of a fire dragon.
"Dragon blood was used when enchanting it. It seems to be because of this."
Sheathing the sword, John took out his wand.
He tried using magic in dragon language. The wand spit out a flame and then disappeared.
"It doesn't seem possible."
A somewhat disappointed John sighed.
After waiting for a while, he saw Ginny walking this way.
Ginny's face was filled with nervousness and Percy kept reassuring her.
When they arrived, Ginny was trembling 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 was not an act, at least it was impossible for Ginny to cast a Crushing Curse on her back.
John looked at her and asked softly: "Ginny, you did it, didn't you?"
Ginny trembled, tears streaming from her eyes, and 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 had been under too much pressure during this time, and she felt as if she had unleashed the monster.
"Riddle, a diary."
Listening to Ginny's words, Percy was a little in disbelief. 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 needed to get the diary before someone else picked it up.
