Chapter 362 The Tomb Raider Rove
On the last night before the Christmas holidays, Hogwarts hosted a huge dinner.
Lupine was in Hogsmeade, and of course he was invited to the school dinner.
Suddenly there was an unfamiliar wizard at the staff table, and the students were all talking and guessing about Lupine's identity.
Could it be that he is the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher that Dumbledore has found, and he will seamlessly connect after Professor Black's accident?
What a scumbag!
However, this guess sounds outrageous at first glance, but when you think about it...it is very reasonable!
After all, according to the usual practice, Sirius can only work for half a year at most, and a funeral and memorial service may be held for him.
Lupine, who was sitting in the guest chair, was also very moved. He never thought that he would be able to return to Hogwarts one day. For a moment, he even had the idea of becoming a professor in the future.
Compared to Lupin's joy, Snape was not in such a good mood. He kept staring at Lupin, with a look of disgust on his thin, sallow face.
"Lupine, I didn't expect to see you again. Are you still alive?"
"Yeah, you're alive and well, Severus." Lupine said in a gentle voice, "You...you look sallow, do you have liver disease?"
"I used to have a colleague with a face similar to yours. He was finally diagnosed with hepatitis and passed away around Easter. Alas!"
Lupine sighed, and said with concern: "Severus, you'd better go to St. Mungo's Hospital for Magic and Magic to have a check-up. Listen to my advice. This kind of illness cannot be delayed."
Hearing Lupin's words, the faces of the faculty and professors changed, and they moved to the sides. After all, hepatitis is contagious.
"Don't worry, if I'm sick, I will definitely make a potion for myself, don't worry about it, it's your sickness..." Snape said with a mocking smile on his lips:
"Dumbledore told me that he wants me to help you brew Wolfsbane Potion... Does it hurt every month?"
"Severus, thank you for your willingness to help me." Lupine said softly.
"You're welcome." Snape gave Lupine a meaningful stare.
"I will definitely brew the best-tasting potion in the world for you...enjoy it."
"If you dare to play tricks in the potion, I will definitely not let you go!" Sirius said coldly.
"Don't let me go?" Snape sneered bitterly, "Blake, it seems that Lupine's arrival has given you a lot of courage. When you were in school, you were four against one, but now you are two against one... It's fair!"
The three confronted each other at the dining table like this, which immediately attracted the attention of all the students.
I don't know who yelled "Beat him", and then there were boos one after another in the auditorium.
Professor McGonagall stared fiercely at the twins who watched the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal.
At the Hufflepuff table, Neville dripped honey on the bread, took a big bite, and said vaguely:
"Rove, are you home for Christmas?"
Rove shook his head and said, "I won't go back."
Newt and the others are still in the United States, and there is no Ilvermorny airship, so he doesn't want to take the Mayflower again.
"Then will you come to my house?" Neville invited: "My grandma likes you very much, you can come to my house as a guest."
"Neville, I still have something to do this holiday." Rove said with a smile, "I will definitely visit Mrs. Longbottom when the summer vacation is over."
The boy didn't lie, he was really busy this Christmas holiday, he had many things to do, the most important of which was about... Voldemort!
After a dinner, the semester came to an end. The next day, the little wizards boarded the Hogwarts Express again and returned to King's Cross Station.
Rove also left Hogwarts alone early in the morning.
He didn't take anyone, including Shirley.
Because... the place to go is too dangerous.
...
...
An old bus, with a creaking sound, stopped slowly on the side of the road, and a blond boy got out of the car.
Rove glanced at two diametrically opposite signposts on the side of the road.
↑Greater Hangleton, 5 miles
↓Little Hangleton, 1 mile
He turned left along the path, went down the hill steeply, and soon saw a valley with a village in it...Little Hangleton.
On the hillside opposite the valley, there was a dilapidated house with all the windows sealed and the tiles on the roof incomplete, and creepers crawled all over the house with their teeth and claws.
Rove knew that the house was the Riddle House, the home of Voldemort's father.
It used to be a very beautiful big house, but with the sudden death of Old Tom's family, half a century later, the house has gradually fallen into disrepair and become more and more dilapidated.
Rove's target today was not the Riddle House. He stood on the hillside, looking down towards the village, and soon found a small church.
Rove walked straight towards the church along the mountain road. He avoided the crowd and quietly entered the gloomy cemetery behind the church.
After the villagers of Little Halton die, they will be buried here, so there are many tombstones in the cemetery.
Walking among the tombs infested with foxes and rabbits, Rove suddenly stopped in front of a tombstone. He squatted down, stretched out his hands and brushed away the vines and lichens that wrapped around the stone monument, revealing its true face.
The handwriting is blurred, but the name of the owner of the tomb can still be vaguely recognized:
Tom Riddle!
It is not Voldemort who is buried here, but Old Tom, Voldemort's father.
Rove stood in front of the tombstone and waved his wand lightly. The tomb quickly split open, and a puff of choking smoke dispersed, revealing a withered and white corpse.
The boy stepped forward, bent down and looked at the corpse carefully, and couldn't help frowning.
According to the traces of the fight in the Forbidden Forest, the destructive power is too strong. Rove speculates that Voldemort may have been resurrected with Peter's help.
But in this grave, old Tom's body is extremely complete, with no missing arms or legs.
It seems that his guess was wrong.
Since he hadn't been resurrected yet, Rove decided to surprise Voldemort with something that would be his Christmas present.
The boy raised his wand, and old Tom flew out of the coffin. He opened the box again, took out a new skeleton, and put it in the coffin.
It's not a human being, but the corpse of an invisible beast... But judging from its appearance, it looks similar to a human being.
I'm not a professional, so I really can't tell the difference.
Voldemort had to use his father's bone if he wanted to be resurrected.
Rove is looking forward to the day when he puts the bone of an invisible beast into the potion... That scene will be too beautiful!
Rove couldn't help laughing, and he continued to wave his wand, restoring the tomb to its original state as much as possible.
Just as the boy was having a great time playing, a soft voice suddenly sounded behind him.
"What are you doing?"
