"Gone?"
John was stunned, where could Daphne go?
In his impression, apart from occasionally liking to sit next to him, this beautiful Slytherin girl had the biggest impression of being arrogant.
Except for John, Daphne didn't even bother to take a look at Malfoy and the others.
Malfoy said guiltily: "She ran away with the diary."
"...Draco, let me tell you something good about you."
John sighed heavily, and Malfoy didn't want to. He always felt that there was a vague whisper in the book in his ears.
He almost opened the diary several times, and Professor Snape had no time to pay attention to him after hearing about Harry and John's accident.
Daphne saw something was wrong with him, so she took the diary.
Unexpectedly, Daphne was even more determined than him and disappeared immediately.
Malfoy regretted it. If he had known earlier, it would be better to carry it on his own.
John was still under the effects of the Felixir, and he carefully recalled what Harry said about Riddle.
"How to deal with me? I have killed the basilisk. There is nothing left in Hogwarts that can threaten me."
His brain was running rapidly, and everything came to mind.
"Use all your knowledge and try it."
Thinking of Pansy's words, John suddenly had an idea in his mind.
He asked anxiously: "Where is Pansy's bottle of poison?"
Malfoy was stunned and couldn't figure out what the poison was about. After thinking about it carefully, he said, "It was taken away by Professor Snape."
As soon as John heard this, he hurriedly went to find Professor Snape, and he realized that the poison was the last clue.
Riddle knew that the basilisk was scarred, so he did not hesitate to use it as a pawn to hold him back.
It is true that there is a great temptation to kill Harry, but for Riddle now, resurrection is the most important thing.
He must be hiding somewhere, preparing to begin his resurrection.
"He has gradually become stronger since he controlled Ginny. He must have some method."
Recalling the states of several people who held the diary, Ginny became weak, Pansy became weird, Harry was secretly hypnotized, and Malfoy was also affected by the voice.
Without exception, their bodies were all affected, and Riddle's influence became more and more powerful. At first, he could only communicate through text, but later he could perform hypnosis and soul-stealing.
These are all related to the change of holder, which is probably caused by the diary absorbing the magic power and vitality of the holder.
In other words, Riddle's changes came from the little wizard's physical decline.
He originally wanted to find the next wizard to absorb in the trophy room, but he didn't expect that John would find him through Tom.
John himself was full of magic and energetic and would not be affected, so Riddle deliberately let John know that Harry was going to the Chamber of Secrets.
"Damn it, you shouldn't underestimate the Dark Lord's intelligence."
Voldemort's various manipulations in Harry Potter in his previous life made John think that Voldemort was not very smart when he was young.
Now that I think about it carefully, this is Voldemort, the second generation Dark Lord, who almost rules the magical world.
He was also very talented and scheming when he was young, how could he be just a simple basilisk.
Finding Snape's office, John opened the door and saw Snape holding the bottle of poison and analyzing it.
"John Wick, I hope you learn some manners."
With undisguised disgust on Professor Snape's face, John stepped forward and asked in a hurried tone: "Professor, do you know the ingredients in this?"
After hearing this, Professor Snape said in a strange tone: "Perhaps you should review it carefully. The ingredients in a bottle of potion are complex and cannot be distinguished by the naked eye alone."
He thought John came here to know the antidote, so he wrote lightly: "If you are really worried, you can go to the school hospital to take care of Miss Parkinson."
"That's too late."
Seeing that he hadn't figured it out yet, John made an unexpected move for Professor Snape.
As soon as Professor Snape put down the poison, John picked it up and smelled it carefully. Before Snape was about to laugh at him, John put it to his mouth and took a sip.
"John Wick, I told you..."
This scene scared Professor Snape. It is true that the fastest way to know the ingredients of a poison is to experience it personally, but he did not expect John to do this.
All kinds of toxins were filtered out one by one on the tip of his tongue, and after smacking his mouth, John felt his body numb slightly, and his frown relaxed.
"Acromantula venom."
John, who has the physique of a fire dragon, has a high poison resistance. Although he was poisoned, it was not that serious.
After tasting the main ingredient, John took out the antidote and drank it like water.
Professor Snape's face was livid. He never expected that he would be so worried about John. His long and gloomy tone became angry, "Twenty points from Slytherin!"
"All right."
John rushed out of the office without stopping.
On the way, he met Harry who was surrounded by Ron and Hermione. Harry saw that he was walking in a hurry and followed him without thinking.
"John, Harry!"
Hermione stomped on the spot angrily. Ron still wanted to go over, but seeing Hermione's angry look, he didn't dare to move.
...
"John, where are you going?"
Harry chased after him, and John ran ahead.
John turned around when he heard the voice and saw Harry coming. He kept walking and said solemnly: "Something happened to Daphne. I suspect that Riddle brought him to the Forbidden Forest."
"Why is Riddle doing this and who is he?"
Harry still doesn't know who Riddle is.
His innocent look made John stop. He stared at the scar on Harry's forehead and said seriously: "Riddle is just his last name. His full name is Tom Marvolo Riddle. Many people don't have this name." I don’t know, but he has a name that is sensational in the magic world.”
Harry asked in confusion: "What is it?"
After taking a deep look at the scar, John opened his lips and teeth slightly and said a name.
"Voldemort."
"Voldemort!"
His body froze, and Harry suddenly saw a green light in front of his eyes. Along with the woman's scream, he broke into a cold sweat.
"Harry, Riddle is definitely here for you. He is planning to resurrect. This time it is extremely dangerous."
John wanted to let Harry go back, and Harry was determined. He couldn't let John take risks alone.
"I'm going with you, John, you know, between me and Voldemort."
He decided to follow, and John nodded and said, "I respect your choice, Harry."
The two ran towards the Forbidden Forest together, and when they passed Hagrid's hut, John shouted something inside.
"Tooth."
Fang ran out of Hagrid's house, and John took out Daphne's handkerchief and gave Fang a sniff.
"Ya Ya, I need you to find its owner."
Ya Ya screamed and started to rush into the forbidden forest.
This meant John was right and they followed as quickly as possible.
The sky began to darken, and the roads in the Forbidden Forest were rugged. If you were not careful, you would trip over fallen branches.
John was okay, but Harry didn't have the ability to see at night, so he lit up his wand and barely managed to catch up with the man and the dog.
As it went deeper and deeper, the smell that Yaya could smell became less and less.
Suddenly, Yaya stopped and barked in one direction.
"Who's there?"
John motioned for Fang to be quiet. He took out his wand and moved it in that direction bit by bit.
It was a humanoid animal that looked like an ape, with black eyes and long hair.
Black eyes stared at John, showing no intent to attack.
John could see clearly that the creature just appeared from invisibility.
"Invisible beast?" John, who was familiar with "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", was stunned.
The invisible beast has a docile temperament. At this time, it pointed in a direction anxiously.
"Are you telling me which way to go?"
John understood its meaning, and under the influence of the Felixir, he felt that it was trustworthy.
Looking at each other with Harry, the two headed over there.
After passing a path surrounded by thorns, they came to a silver lake.
The moonlight shines down, and the lake sparkles with light.
A boy wearing a Hogwarts uniform stood there, and at his feet was a girl with beautiful golden hair.
The boy has dark eyes, is tall, has a pale face, and is very handsome.
He was the young Voldemort, holding Daphne's laurel wand in his hand and smiling.
"You are finally here."
The young Riddle had a confident smile on his face. He held the wand and did not take the two of them seriously.
"That useless old snake, it seems he is dead, but it doesn't matter, I will take action."
Riddle was proud of himself. He pointed his wand at Harry and said proudly: "Take out your wand, Harry. I know you have learned dueling. I will take your life with my own hands."
He had already heard the story of Harry Potter from Ginny, the powerful Dark Lord in the wizarding world who had everything taken away by a baby.
He would avenge this with his own hands.
Even John had to stand aside.
Harry picked up his wand and mustered up the courage to take a step.
A smile appeared on Riddle's face.
