Chapter 321 The Successor of the Village
The bed next door was terribly quiet...
Madam Pomfrey also fell asleep. Kyle put on his shoes and clothes, left the hospital ward quietly, and came to the equally silent castle. ˜”*°•.˜˜.•°*”˜
However, when Kyle arrived at the castle, he remembered that Professor McGonagall seemed to have said that Dumbledore was not in school today.
But it didn't matter. He met Professor McGonagall on the third floor.
Professor McGonagall was very angry about seeing Kyle in the castle.
"You should be in the hospital ward... instead of hanging around here!"
"Professor McGonagall, I know where the Chamber of Secrets is!" Kyle said quickly: "Its entrance is in the Myrtle bathroom, under the faucet that can't run water."
"What?" Professor McGonagall looked at Kyle in surprise, and then reacted immediately.
"You wait here, and you are not allowed to go anywhere."
She waved her wand, and a transparent tabby cat suddenly jumped out. It was her patronus.
Professor McGonagall said something to the tabby cat, and then it jumped up the stairs flexibly and disappeared in a few flashes.
During this process, Kyle did not wait honestly.
In fact, when Professor McGonagall summoned the Patronus, he had already left through a secret passage behind him.
Kyle knew that the professors would definitely not let him go to the secret room with them, but he had to go.
I don’t know if it was because of that strange dream, since coming to the third floor, Kyle has had this idea in his mind, and it has become stronger and stronger.
Kyle came out from the other side of the secret passage, identified the direction, and quickly came to Myrtle’s bathroom.
All the "explosive textbooks" that were placed here before disappeared inexplicably, but Kyle could no longer care about these.
He opened the entrance to the secret room in snake language and said to the surprised Myrtle next to him: "The professors will come over in a while, remember to tell them that this is the secret room below."
"You..."
Myrtle seemed to say something, but Kyle didn't hear it.
He had jumped into the pipe and was sliding down rapidly.
Kyle felt a sticky feeling on his back, and he felt a little regretful.
Why didn't he use the flying broom just now...
Soon, Kyle returned to the ground, walked quickly through the damp and dark tunnel, and came to the door of the last chamber of secrets.
Strangely, after coming here, the buzzing sound in Kyle's head disappeared, and the whole person returned to normal.
He spoke the snake language again to the entrance of the chamber of secrets.
"Open!"
The stone wall cracked from the middle, slowly slid to both sides and disappeared...
The chamber of secrets looked no different from before, but Kyle noticed that there was a black diary at the foot of the Slytherin statue.
"I didn't expect it to be you." A voice said softly.
Kyle was not surprised and turned his head to look in the direction of the voice.
A tall boy leaned against the nearest stone pillar and was looking at him. The boy looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, black, thin lips, and handsome.
At first glance, he looked a bit like Cedric.
"Tom Riddle."
"It's me." Riddle nodded. "Long time no see, my... good friend?"
He walked over. "I've been wondering who will be the first to find the location of the Chamber of Secrets... Dumbledore? Harry Potter?
I didn't expect it to be you."
"Surprised?" Kyle asked.
"Not really." Riddle said with interest, "You are just like me back then, smart and thoughtful... It's not surprising that you can find the location of the Chamber of Secrets."
"Don't flatter yourself." Kyle sneered. "I'm in the third grade now, and I've won two special contribution awards for the school, and the Order of Merlin, second class.
You only won one special contribution award for the school in the fifth grade... Tsk tsk."
Riddle's face finally changed a little, not as calm as before.
"I said, those things are not important, only power is everything!"
He took two steps forward again, and I don't know when a wand appeared in his hand.
That was Ron's wand.
"We are the same kind of people, Kyle. Those dirty mudbloods are not worthy of sitting in the same classroom with you."
Riddle stretched out his hand, "Follow me. Under the witness of the great Salazar Slytherin, I promise you that we can change the world and let the magic world enter a new and glorious era."
Kyle looked at the wand in his hand that was faintly facing himself, and narrowed his eyes, "I only have one question, how did you get out."
"To be honest, I don't know." Riddle showed a weird smile at the corner of his mouth and continued to stare at Kyle.
"I was still trying to gain your trust... But one day, I suddenly found myself leaving the place where I couldn't feel any magic, and met another person.
Although that person was timid and cowardly, and didn't even dare to lift that dirty disguise, he was much more naive than you, and easily opened his soul to me..."
"Look, with his help, I have become so much better."
"Who is it?" Kyle asked again.
"You are my future servant..." Riddle said casually, "Now, it's your turn to answer my questions. Although you have deceived me before, I don't mind. As long as you are willing to follow me... I will forgive everything that happened before."
"Well..." Kyle touched his chin, "Can I think about it."
"Of course." Riddle said nonchalantly: "I have closed the entrance to the secret room you left in the bathroom. No one will disturb us in a short period of time."
"Yeah, that's really..."
Without warning, Kyle suddenly raised his wand.
A row of sharp stone cones sprouted from Riddle's feet and penetrated his body.
But Riddle didn't care.
"What a shame, I thought you would agree."
Kyle smiled, "If I said that my hand just slipped, would you believe it?"
"What do you think!" Riddle looked at Kyle with a ferocious expression.
"Heart-breaking and bone-cutting!"
"The Divine Edge is Shadowless!"
Two lights, one red and one white, collided in the air, then changed directions and landed in different places.
The white light flashed across the pillar next to it, leaving a deep gash on it.
Riddle looked at the pillar in surprise.
"This level of black magic, and the silent spell before... Among the young wizards of this age, you are the strongest I have ever seen.
I'm a little reluctant to kill you. "
Although he said this, the ferocious smile on his face became more obvious.
"The game ends here, let you see my true power, the power from Salazar Slytherin!"
Riddle turned, faced the face of the Slytherin statue, opened his mouth and made a hissing sound.
"Talk to me..."
"Talk to me..."
Two voices sounded at the same time.
The sudden change made Riddle turn his head subconsciously.
However, in this pause, Kyle had already finished reciting the snake language.
"Talk to me, Slytherin...the greatest of the Hogwarts Four!"
"You...you...this is impossible!"
For the first time, a look of fear appeared on Riddle's face. He turned around suddenly and yelled, "Damn it, how do you know how to summon a basilisk!"
"Because I am the real heir of Slytherin." Kyle showed Lockhart's signature smile, "You fake copycat."
