Chapter 335 Dumbledore: Why Do You Act Like Some Old Bastard?
"Haha! I escaped!"
"I finally escaped!"
If anyone is here.
You will definitely be shocked by the scene in front of you.
Because there is a black diary floating in mid-air in the corridor!
At this time, the diary was opening and closing with wild laughter!
Tom was filled with elation now.
He has always endured the humiliation at Blake's hands!
Blake's every torture.
Although he is in pain, he can still get some benefits!
Over time and over time.
He finally has the strength to break out of Blake's meager seal!
If the diary could shed tears.
Then the tears must have burst into tears at this time...
Two months ago, it seemed that it was because of complacency.
Blake stopped casting oblivion spells on him.
Seems like it’s too troublesome?
After that, Blake became less and less wary of herself!
Just today! Blake forgot his bag on the bench in the hallway!
Then he followed his girlfriends!
And he! Tom's diary!
Blake put it in this schoolbag!
so......
Tom has already accumulated enough strength.
It directly broke through Blake's meager seal.
It floated out of Blake's forgotten schoolbag on the bench, and then flew away as fast as possible!
If it were the previous Tom, he wouldn't have this ability.
He could only passively let the people he bewitched lead him around.
It's impossible to fly away by yourself!
But now! Blake helps Tom have this power!
However, this emperor is not infinite.
If you use it too much, you will get tired.
So, Tom needs a carrier!
One person as a carrier!
And in Hogwarts, there are many weak-minded little wizards!
Tom looked for it while flying.
However, it's strangely funny.
There isn't even a little wizard in this corridor?
Tom, who felt the loss of strength increasing, also felt more and more desperate.
If at this time, no one can be seen anymore
Suddenly, he saw a wizard sitting slumped on the edge of the corridor in front of him!
Tom was immediately overjoyed!
This is a professor!
And he looks like a professor who is extremely emotionally broken!
That's great!
The professor is much better than the little wizard!
Because the professor can leave Hogwarts at any time!
That way you can take yourself away!
And... if it is a healthy professor, then he is also in trouble!
But the most coincidental thing is that this is a professor who seems to have an emotional breakdown!
It is impossible for a person who is emotionally broken to withstand his own sneak attack at this time!
Even if this is a professor!
Lockhart was sitting on the ground in despair.
His face was full of despair.
The bloodshot look in his eyes simply didn't look like a living person.
He... couldn't find Blake...
"Impossible...why did he harm me..."
"Snapped!"
Suddenly, Lockhart felt like his head was hit by something.
He glanced in shock at the thing that had just hit him but now fell to the ground.
That's a black diary...
Just when Lockhart subconsciously reached out and grabbed the diary.
A translucent soul rushed from the diary into Lockhart's head in an instant!
"ah!"
"Please come in."
Dumbledore lowered his quill.
Look at the young man walking in from the door.
Dumbledore smiled and said, "What, are you finally done?"
"Well...that's almost it." Blake nodded.
These days, Dumbledore is also paying attention to Lockhart's affairs.
He has witnessed Lockhart's journey from being very proud to having fans dispersed and becoming infamous.
Of course Dumbledore knew that this couldn't be Lockhart himself becoming like this.
He already knew Blake's goal as early as when Blake started planning.
I just didn't expect that Blake would achieve results so quickly!
If he was the one who planned it, Luhart would not be in dire straits so quickly.
"I came here mainly for two things." Blake got straight to the point.
"Those two things?"
"The first thing is for the treatment of the Longbottoms.
Dumbledore stood up excitedly after hearing this.
"Have you found a way?"
Blake nodded, "Yeah... I will be doing research on broken souls every night during this period.
Dumbledore's eyes flickered and he hesitated to speak.
Blake said directly: "I did an experiment with that diary.
Dumbledore looked at Blake in shock, although he had doubts about this.
However, Blake didn't make excuses, but admitted it directly.
It was beyond Dumbledore's expectation.
"It's not easy to find souls that are incomplete and thick enough to be used as experimental subjects...
"However, the remaining soul in that diary completely satisfies this point."
"And...I won't feel any guilt doing experiments on that guy.
Blake said expressionlessly.
Dumbledore nodded.
He's not a stubborn old man either.
As early as when I learned that Blake was capable enough to control that diary.
He handed over the diary to him with confidence.
If we say that the diary, as an experimental product, can contribute to the treatment of the Longbottoms.
He has no objection at all!
Anyway, that is the Horcrux of the Dark Lord Voldemort! It is something that will be destroyed sooner or later!
"So, have you found a way?" Dumbledore asked slightly nervously.
"Fortunately." Blake showed a bright smile.
Dumbledore shook his fist happily.
"Great! Then when can you go treat the Longbottoms?"
"Anytime," Blake said.
Dumbledore breathed a sigh of relief.
Blake's tone is so determined, then this thing will definitely happen!
"Okay! That's great! I have to inform Neville and his grandmother first. I think they will be very happy when they hear the news!"
Dumbledore sat back at his desk and prepared to write a letter to Neville's grandmother, Augusta Longbottom.
While writing the letter, he asked casually: "Now that you have developed a treatment plan, what are you going to do with the diary and the Horcrux? I suggest you destroy it as soon as possible."
Blake sighed, "I want to too...but..."
Dumbledore looked up at Blake, "But what?"
"But the diary is lost." Blake said helplessly.
"What!!" The quill in Dumbledore's hand was almost broken.
"This is also the second thing I want to say here today..."
Ouch... what a naughty kid!
Dumbledore was numb.
Trouble now......
Diaries often confuse people.
If it was hidden by some little wizard.
It is really difficult for me to find this diary among so many little wizards...
"How did you lose the diary?"
As of now, Dumbledore has no intention of playing the poisonous flute Blake.
The most urgent task is to find the diary.
Although the basilisk in the secret room has been eliminated.
However, he also doesn’t want any little wizard to fall in love with Tom!
"I lost it on purpose," Blake said.
0...Please give me flowers...
"Huh?" Dumbledore slowly put down the pen in his hand, and then looked at Blake quietly.
Blake looked at his watch: "If I'm not mistaken, the diary is now tempting Lockhart to open the secret room.
After Dumbledore heard Blake's words, a strange look flashed in his eyes.
"You want to use the diary to frame Lockhart?"
"I'm not framing Lockhart!" Blake said innocently: "The diary can't open the secret room on its own. If Lockhart withstands the test and doesn't agree to the diary's request, the diary can't do anything to him!"
"You know, Tom in the diary can only control people who have complete trust in him!"
Dumbledore was silent for a while, "In other words, if Lockhart didn't take the diary to open the Chamber of Secrets, you were going to let him go. But if he took the diary and opened it,
Blake spread his hands: "Opening the secret room is an attempt to harm Hogwarts. Think about it, if we hadn't taken down the Basilisk in advance, wouldn't he have killed many people by opening the secret room? We caught him this time. He was caught alive! With you as a witness and the diary as physical evidence! He will have to spend the rest of his life in Azkaban!"
Dumbledore looked at Blake quietly, as if he were meeting him for the first time.
"No wonder you didn't let Lockhart know about our actions to eliminate the basilisk..."
"In other words, you were already plotting against Lockhart at that time?"
Blake nodded generously, "That's right!"
"We want him to get the punishment he deserves, but...
"As you can see, even if we have the testimonies of many victims, it is useless."
"The Ministry of Magic, which is afraid of taking responsibility, simply doesn't have the courage to drag him out and give him a bottle of Veritaserum."
"so..…………."
Dumbledore sighed and said for Blake: "So, you first make him infamous, and then let him take the diary and commit the crime of opening the secret room and premeditating harm to the students of Hogwarts?"
"I didn't force him to open the Chamber of Secrets!" Blake spread his hands, "If he doesn't open the Chamber of Secrets, he's still Gilderoy Lockhart. We still can't do anything to him. But if he opens the Chamber of Secrets
Dumbledore sighed again. "This method is not honorable."
"Why must we use honorable means to deal with dishonorable people?"
Blake's words left Dumbledore speechless.
However, Blake looks very Grindelwald like this.
This made Dumbledore feel very stuck in his heart.
Blake's approach is not considered false accusation, but a bit like fishing for law enforcement.
Strictly speaking, this is a kind approach!
Because Blake's plan left Lockhart a way out!
If he could really change his ways and want to be a good person, he wouldn't listen to the diary and open the secret room!
But Lockhart...
Dumbledore knew he would choose to open the Chamber of Secrets.
In this desperate situation, Lockhart has long been in chaos.
And panicked people are most likely to do the wrong thing...
The remnant soul in that diary and every piece of cake drawn for him were the last straw he grabbed after falling into the water.
"Hey... let's go to the Chamber of Secrets now." Dumbledore said.
"Don't worry, let's hide aside and wait and see." Blake said, "What if Lockhart withstands the test?"
Dumbledore looked at Blake helplessly.
If only Lockhart could withstand temptation so easily, he wouldn't have done all that evil in the first place!
Moreover, even if Lockhart withstood the temptation, Dumbledore did not believe that Blake would really let Lockhart go.
However, the basilisk in the secret room was cleared anyway.
Therefore, Dumbledore was not in a hurry.
"Then, let's go."
