Capítulo 19: Chapter 19: Dumbledore was led astray by Ginny
"So, you met Dumbledore?"
In the memory space, Cyrus's face didn't look good.
He only found out about it the next night. Ginny fell asleep immediately after returning to her dormitory last night.
"Well! Principal Dumbledore mentioned you. Although he didn't mention your name, I know it was you." Ginny said excitedly, but then, Cyrus's words were like pouring water on her. cold water.
"Ginny, I think I've been exposed."
Cyrus exhaled deeply, trying to calm down his emotions. He didn't expect that after waiting for so long, he would get such a bad result in the end.
After all, he and Riddle are not the same person, and their attitudes towards Ginny are also different. A little coincidence is enough to make the outcome of the matter very different.
but—
'Maybe there is hope. ' he thought.
If Dumbledore thought that everything was under his control, he would not be so eager to take action.
Just like Quirrell last year, it is naturally suitable to use it as a training tool for his savior.
'There's still room for maneuver! '
Cyrus forced himself to calm down.
In fact, he was not sure what Dumbledore's plan was, but almost twenty hours had passed since Ginny met Dumbeldore last night, and the diary was still in Ginny's hands unharmed, which meant that something was wrong. The situation didn't seem hopeless, at least not yet.
"Exposed? But I have never told anyone about Mr. Riddle or the diary, so how?" Ginny was so startled that she almost lost her grip on the pen and said anxiously.
"It's not your fault, but magic is always hard to guard against. Dumbledore is a master of Legilimency. When he looks into your eyes, he can roughly know what you are thinking." After some time Cyrus calmed down, and now he was in the mood to comfort Ginny.
"Generally speaking, wizards always say that Legilimency is not mind reading, but to an unsuspecting mind, that spell is actually more terrifying than mind reading."
"Oh, Merlin! Then, what should I do now?" Ginny was about to cry.
She didn't want to cause Mr. Riddle to "die" like this because of herself, nor did she want to lose such a close friend.
"Don't worry, if someone really asks you to hand me over, just hide me. I will modify your memory and hide my existence within your real memory so that no one can find me. ." Cyrus comforted.
This is the last resort.
Once he reaches this point, he doesn't know when it will be until another person opens the diary next time. And if the diary got destroyed, would Voldemort die?
Cyrus and Ginny were preoccupied here.
.....
On the other side, Dumbledore was sitting in the office, thinking hard about the small details of his meeting with Ginny Weasley last night.
*Sigh* He shook his head with a heavy sigh.
Although it was a bit despicable to say it, he did use Legilimency on a first-year wizard.
He really wanted to know why the other party appeared in that place by such a coincidence.
But the information he got surprised him.
"This..."
He put his memory into the pensieve and messed with it, and the scene from last night immediately emerged.
He saw himself being aggressive and shamelessly using powerful magic to forcefully enter Ginny's brain and read her thoughts at that moment.
And to mention, he also deliberately asked a question to guide the other party to think - "Before you leave, I want to make sure something... Miss Weasley, is there anything else you want to say to me?"
Ginny Weasley was clearly hiding something.
And when he looked at her thoughts.
At that moment, a single voice kept echoing in her mind:
"Draco Malfoy is the heir of Slytherin!"
Eh..? Draco Malfoy?
Even he found it a bit ridiculous.
If Salazar Slytherin really found Draco Malfoy to be his heir, he was really blind.
It's not that Dumbledore looked down on Draco Malfoy, in fact it was quite the opposite.
He believed that Draco was indeed a talent. But the Malfoy family is actually not that qualified as a Slytherin, let alone the successor of Slytherin.
Ambition and honor?
Yes, but not much.
Honor just for show, and greed for wealth.
And— Draco doesn't have a Parseltongue!
This is a very important point, at least Dumbledore believes that if Slytherin really left any secret room, perhaps only a Parselmouth can open the door to the secret room.
But in other words, he couldn't confirm whether there was a secret room or not.
Dumbledore knew very well that the murderer fifty years ago was not Hagrid. At that time, he did not suspect that it was Tom Riddle, but as time went by, the truth of many things became more and more obvious.
The murderer fifty years ago was probably Tom. It's just that Dumbledore wasn't sure what method the other party had used.
Is it a deliberate obliteration to make Horcruxes? Or is it really like the rumors say that Slytherin's secret room was opened to eliminate those so-called "Mudbloods— people who are not worthy of learning magic"?
"Draco Malfoy being related to this, huh... it's not impossible. Arthur seemed to be ransacking Malfoy's house during the summer vacation. Maybe Lucius asked him to bring some things from the Voldemort period to the school." Dumbledore guessed.
In fact, he had guessed pretty well.
It was actually due to his father that the diary got into Ginny's possession.
But because of the words in Ginny's mind, his current guess was slightly biased and incorrect.
Moreover, Draco, who was supposed to follow the team back to the dungeon, appeared on the third floor at that time, which was more coincidental than the golden trio appearing there.
As for why Ginny Weasley appeared in the secret room where Hagrid previously hid the Acromantula, maybe someone told her that "this is where the Chamber of Secrets is."
Fifty years ago... maybe it was her grandfather or grandmother.
"What are the old things from Voldemort's era? The key to the Chamber of Secrets? Or—"
He broke away from his memory, looked at Fox who was on the verge of rebirth, and said happily.
"Hurry up and prepare for your rebirth, my old friend, I may need your help."
If that thing is really the monster that he guessed, then he has finally made progress in something that has been fruitless for decades. Of course, with Tom Riddle's madness, he might have made several such things, but in any case, it would be great if he could destroy one now.
Fawkes lowered his head and pulled out one of its tail feathers, ignoring Dumbledore's words.
"It seems I have to find time to visit my old friend Horace Slughorn. Haah, I haven't seen him for a long time since he retired." Dumbledore paced and stood at the window. In front, watching the moonlight shine down.
"But let's wait a little longer. If it is really Draco, I believe Lucius Malfoy will take action."
