Rumor was terrible, but Moody was wrong about one thing.
He forgot that this is what comes with being strong.
So when John learned about the rumors that were spreading, he did nothing to curb them.
Human nature being what it is, he feels that what he knows is the truth.
Even if you argue with him, you can't change everything.
Only when he finds the facts himself can he truly believe that it is all wrong.
But for Slytherin, there is nothing wrong with having one more Dark Lord.
Blaise Zabini once ran over to John and asked if he really wanted to do this.
Seeing the enthusiasm in his eyes, John just smiled.
This seems to prove something, but it also seems to prove nothing.
Slytherin became more united, and their internal frictions were not worth the external battles.
A student who dared to speak ill of John would attract several Slytherins to attack him.
There were rumors in Gryffindor, too.
"I know there are not many good people in Slytherin." When a Gryffindor student said this, his deskmate did not refute.
Even though Gryffindor has always despised Slytherin's discrimination against Muggles, in fact, they have been doing discriminatory things.
Harry had heard Ron say when he was still on the train in his first year that Slytherins were not good people.
During Voldemort's time, most Slytherin students joined the Death Eaters.
So when this rumor spread, it actually seemed very credible to the Gryffindor students.
Ron learned his lesson this time and didn't say anything.
Hermione heard someone talking about this, and she couldn't help shouting: "John is not that kind of person!"
Now Ron had an objection. He listened to Hermione mouthing John's words, which was like a burr pricking into the sole of his foot, causing him to be pricked every step he took.
So he muttered: "Didn't John set up a group of stars? It's mysterious. Maybe..."
He didn't finish his sentence because Hermione glared at him.
This look infuriated Ron even more, and he shouted angrily: "Did I say it wrong, John, John, John!"
He hated the name, especially coming out of Hermione's mouth.
That night, Hermione wore a blue dress, like Cinderella who had been bewitched by her fairy godmother, and it was deeply imprinted in his mind.
He didn't know what was wrong, but hearing Hermione talk about other men made him feel uncomfortable.
Harry was startled by his reaction and rushed to reassure Ron.
Hermione gritted her teeth and looked at Ron. She stood up and was about to leave. When she thought of something, she pointed at Ron's nose and cursed: "You are an ungrateful guy. John saved you and repaired your wand!"
After saying that, Hermione walked away quickly holding the book.
Harry noticed that there was a flash of light in the corner of her eyes.
He looked at Hermione and then at Ron, in a dilemma.
Ron also sat angrily and muttered: "I've been talking about John all day long, and I also saved her life!"
...
After this battle, John discovered that Harry and Ron deliberately avoided the place where he appeared.
After thinking for a moment, he knew why.
He was silent for a long time, and finally laughed: "The savior and the third generation of the Dark Lord."
"So this is ah."
Rumors are not important, what matters is who believes them.
John closed his eyes and opened them again, his eyes filled with peace.
"Moody, you overestimate the status of the Savior in my heart."
Savior?
It's just a child that Dumbledore held up.
His old enemy is Voldemort.
And myself...
Will kill Voldemort.
John regained his indifference, and students from other colleges avoided wherever he went.
Malfoy actually enjoyed this feeling.
Is there anything more satisfying than the whole school paying attention?
"John, you might as well just become the Dark Lord." He said half-jokingly.
As a result, seeing John's thoughtful expression, he immediately panicked, "I was just joking."
"Shut up, I'm trying to give you a few more laps!"
Malfoy: "..." Do you think others are fools if they don't speak?
He didn't notice that Heinrich's eyes flashed beside him.
John's strength is obvious to all. He has such strength in the fourth grade. It is not impossible to become the Dark Lord after graduation.
Daphne said nothing, she would always be there for John no matter who he became.
"Heinrich, I have a task for you."
John stopped before entering the classroom and Heinrich looked at him.
"Go check Moody, there's something fishy about him."
In the Star Club, the most powerful person besides John is Heinrich.
Therefore, this matter can only be left to Heinrich.
Heinrich nodded, and John pointed to the Stars Badge and said, "If there is danger, use the badge. It doesn't matter if you can't find it."
He smiled and said: "Deputy, your presence is the most important."
Finally something else appeared on Heinrich's face, and he smiled.
Nodding vigorously, Heinrich put his right hand on the badge, bowed slightly and said with a smile: "Of course, my king."
The investigation was left to Heinrich, as John had other things to attend to.
Hand over all kinds of equipment to Heinrich, the most important one is the "right of supremacy".
He told Heinrich not to use it unless absolutely necessary.
Sovereignty is a one-time thing, and John only has a few.
Also given to Heinrich was the Marauder's Map to monitor Moody's every move.
March.
John walks out of the castle at night.
He didn't alert anyone.
Exiting through the Shrieking Shack, he came to Hogsmeade.
Leaving the confines of Hogwarts, he used Apparation to disappear.
When he reappeared, he was already at Johnny Silverhand's store.
Tang Mi was waiting here respectfully. When he saw John appear, he said: "Sir, the owl attribute was intercepted and sent not far from Silver Hand Manor."
He handed John a letter enchanted with privacy magic.
"The curse pauses."
John raised his hand and brushed it, and all the magic on it fell silent.
He did not dispel the magic, which would cause the other party to notice.
When I opened the letter, it was blank.
"You are really cautious. Unfortunately, this caution has no effect in front of an alchemist."
The silver ring covered the finger, and with a slight touch, the magic shielding writing on it appeared.
John glanced quickly and put it down again, with a cold look on his face.
He asked: "What is the name of that security guard?"
"Bieber, Bieber Just." Tang Mi replied respectfully, "He was originally the owner of a crucible store in Knockturn Alley. Later, the store went bankrupt and he joined the security team."
"It seems to have been planned for a long time."
John sneered and said, "In that case, pull them all out at once."
He said to himself: "I don't know how many drinking friends I will see this time."
There were Death Eaters at his last banquet, and he knew about it and acquiesced to it all.
Killing quickly is never a good idea, he also wants Lucius to lurk inside.
"Lucius also has a letter."
Tang Mi took out another letter, this one didn't have so much magic.
It was written by Lucius, and it contains a list of Death Eaters who may have been involved in this matter.
"Let Lucius go to the Silver Hand Manor to provide support. It's time to let Lucius have his own power within the Death Eaters."
After casually lighting the letter and burning it, John's idea of catching them all changed and he decided to keep a few.
Since Lucius wants to infiltrate the Death Eaters, he must get some power.
Is there anything more worthy of this group of desperadoes’ gratitude than their life-saving grace?
He was ready to let Lucius steal the show.
Brushing his cheek casually, a silver mask appeared on John's face.
The clothes on his body have also changed into Johnny Silverhand's special suit.
He smiled half-heartedly and said, "Let me see if the die-hard fans of the second-generation Dark Lord Voldemort are so scary."
Tang Mi also chuckled. After all, no one knew the situation of the manor better than him.
Little Barty had already moved there. Where there was a manor, it was simply a wolf den.
The intercepted letter was repackaged and John restored the magic.
There was a dumb owl at the window, and Tang Mi used a confusion spell on it.
Putting the letter back, dispelling the confusion spell and erasing the memory of this period, the owl flew away without any notice.
John took the office floo network and entered Silverhand Manor.
Looking at the night outside, he just had to wait quietly.
