"Voldemort, Merope's son?" said Harry in disbelief, "it's incredible, she can't even use the Flying Charm and the Repair Charm, how could she give birth to Voldemort?"

"Merope is a witch, she's a Slytherin descendant. Under Marvolo's high-pressure family education, Merope, who was more cowardly, could not use her natural talents. You can notice that Marvolo and his son Morfin refer to Merope with insulting words like Squibs, and I think Merope is a lot like Neville, they can't use magic properly just because they have a certain psychological block. It turns out that Marvolo, Morfin and Richard underestimated Merope's determination and strength. We also happened to take a look at Voldemort's father. I wonder if you've noticed?"

"The Muggle that Mofin attacked, the man on horseback?"

"Exactly," said Dumbledore with a smile, "yes, that's Tom Riddle Sr., a handsome Muggle who used to ride past Gaunt's cabin, and for whom Merope Gaunt had a crush on him. ”

"Did they really get married?" Harry asked in disbelief, he couldn't imagine that these two unrelated people could love each other.

"I think you've probably forgotten that Merope is a witch, and when Marvolo and Morfin are imprisoned in Azkaban, and no one restrains her, she can do a lot of things that others don't expect. Dumbledore said.

"Can you imagine what Merope would have done to make Tom Riddle forget about his Muggle couple and fall in love with her?"

"Imperius, or is it an aphrodisiac?"

"Yes, I personally prefer that she used an aphrodisiac, but it is possible that the Imperius Charm was used, after all, it is difficult for a homeless man's daughter to make a squire's son feel comfortable eating what she handed her, isn't it? Anyway, a few months after the scene we just witnessed, a shocking scandal broke out in Tom Riddle's village, where the homeless man's daughter, Merope, eloped with the squire's son.

"You can imagine how surprised and furious Mavolo was when he returned home from Azkaban and now his daughter had eloped with a Muggle with a Slytherin locket. The grumpy Marvolo even went to Richard Silver, who had a very bad relationship with him, and asked him to help him find Merope. Dumbledore said.

"Will Richard help Marvolo?"

Dumbledore nodded, "Richard Silver may be a little more enlightened than Marvolo, but you don't have to expect the patriarch of a pure-blood wizarding family fifty years ago to support wizards and Muggles eloping. What's more, Marvolo promised a reward that was hard to refuse. ”

"What's the pay?"

"That Slytherin locket around Meloppe's neck, it's worth a fortune. ”

"And the result?" asked Harry, "did they find it?"

"As far as I know, no. Dumbledore shook his head, "They all underestimated Merope so much that they couldn't find Merope until Marvolo died." Azkaban destroyed Mavolo's body, and he died a few months later. ”

"And what about Merope? Is she dead? Voldemort said he was an orphan. ”

"yes, that's right. Dumbledore said, "A year later, Tom Riddle was back at home. With his wife with him, Tom Riddle dumped Merope. ”

"Why? Is the aphrodisiac ineffective?"

Perhaps Merope felt that she had a child in her womb and that she could keep her husband by her side even without magic. Perhaps it was because of the long-term use of aphrodisiacs, Tom Riddle developed a certain resistance. Anyway, Tom Riddle left Merope. Pregnant with Voldemort, Merope was cornered and eventually gave birth to Voldemort in an orphanage, where she died. ”

"Alright, Harry, it's getting late, let's be here today, I need to go back to the ministry for some business. Dumbledore said, "Then next week, at this time, you'll be here." ”

"Yes, sir. ”

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

"That Merope is so pathetic. Hermione grabbed a box of tissues and wiped her red eyes, and the Pettier sisters were already hugging each other and crying.

Silver couldn't imagine that such a vulgar story could touch the girls' tears, so he could only pretend to be light-hearted and say, "Well, girls, this is just a very ordinary story." And don't you notice? This is Voldemort's mother, alas, not worthy of sympathy, she is acting too extremely. ”

"Why did your great-grandfather help that Marvolo hunt down Merope? Hermione said in a nasal voice. "If Voldemort had grown up in a normal family, he probably wouldn't have become so bad. ”

Silver was speechless, is it the best way to whitewash his sorrow and sprinkle dog blood?

"So, did you get that Slytherin locket in the end?" Michael Turner said, looking intrigued, "it's a Slytherin relic." Worth a fortune, your great-grandfather must have found the orphanage. ”

The girls looked viciously at the scenic, Michael, who obediently shut his mouth. (To be continued......)
