Chapter 223: Tom Riddle: I'm working so hard, but you're doing this to me?
Ivan didn't reply for a long time, and Tom Riddle understood that Ivan planned to break the previous agreement, and asked angrily.
[Why?] 】
Ivan sighed, silently picked up the quill beside him, and wrote in his diary.
[Tom, you've always been a good person!] So can you help me one last time? Tell me, where the hell did you put that stuff? I'll just get it myself! 】
Ivan asked very sincerely, everyone is friends, if he can, Ivan does not want to use some drastic means to get the information he wants.
Tom Riddle was angry for a while, angry and more puzzled, and words quickly appeared on the white paper, covering the entire page.
[You don't trust me, why?] I'm so dedicated to teaching you all kinds of magic...]
"Intentions? But there are at least twenty-nine mistakes in the magical knowledge you told me! Ivan was also too lazy to argue with Tom Riddle, and retorted directly.
Tom Riddle was stunned, he didn't expect that Ivan would be clear about his small actions before, and he was a little embarrassed for a while.
Perhaps this was why Ivan didn't trust him, and Tom quickly explained.
[Hals, you misunderstood! I'm just a sixteen-year-old student's memory, and it's normal to have some omissions, and I don't mean to deceive you. 】
"Really? What memory also needs to be rejuvenated? I could see it very clearly when you devoured the flesh and soul of that spider..."
Ivan said sarcastically, mercilessly tearing through Tom's disguise, and then spoke again.
"You've never told me the truth, have you? Tom? I certainly don't have a reason to believe you! ”
"It's also clear to me that you've never considered me a friend!"
Ivan's words hit the soul, and Tom Riddle was completely enraged, and the diary on the table automatically vibrated and trembled.
[Enough! Hals! Don't forget! When you encounter a problem in the study of various magic, who helped you solve it? When you were in trouble studying alchemy, who was helping you? 】
[I've spent so much time helping you, and you?!] Hals? You lied to me as soon as we met, you're a Slytherin cadet!
I asked you about the current state of the wizarding world and asked you who Harry Potter was when you defeated the Dark Lord! You tell me you don't know much! I believe you...
The result? You're Harry Potter's best friend! 】
Large paragraphs of characters leap onto the page, and every sentence reveals Tom Riddle's deep anger,
From birth to the present, Tom Riddle feels that he has never been so kind to other people, and he has worked so hard to be able to gain the trust of the other party.
The result? Ivan Hals didn't trust him from start to finish...
Tom Riddle is just going mad!
At the same time, Tom also recalled the things that felt wrong when he got along with Ivan before, and now Tom has figured it all out, and the other party has always been teasing him!
Tom's heart was full of resentment and doubt, what was there about him that he had failed to do well, so that he was so guarded and targeted?
"Don't say that, Tom, I'm just a little wizard in my second year. Don't slander me... Obviously, you used the Soul Retriever to peek into my memories first. Ivan looked at the words that appeared in the diary and said embarrassedly.
When Ivan said the Dementor, Tom Riddle was completely silent, he didn't expect Ivan to even know this.
Tom Riddle has a vague sense that the situation is out of his control...
Seeing that Tom fell silent, Ivan spoke.
"I'll say it again, tell me, where the hell did you put that information? Or where is the Slytherin Research Room, and how do you open it? ”
"I don't have that much patience! Tom! Ivan pulled out his wand and pointed at the Horcrux in front of him, threatening.
[Do you think you can hurt me? Just the magic you've learned? 】
The ink on the diary was revealed again, and the words were full of sarcasm, and then an endless black mist erupted from the diary, sweeping towards Ivan...
Although he is only in the state of a remnant soul, he has absorbed the flesh and soul of a spider before, and he is not completely incapable of resisting!
However, Ivan activated the Ring of Fire on his left hand in the next moment, and a palpitating flame floated out from the tip of his wand.
All the black mist was instantly frightened and retracted from the diary, as if nothing had happened just now...
"Blazing?!" Tom Riddle's terrified voice came from the journal, there aren't many things in the wizarding world that can destroy Horcruxes, and Mighty Fire is one of them.
"Yes, it's a fierce fire!" Ivan nodded, he went to great lengths to ask Althea for the ring, which had been used to destroy Horcruxes in the first place.
"You only get one chance to speak!" Ivan said indifferently, leaning the fire floating at the top of his wand towards the Horcrux.
[Without my help, you will never get what you want!] The journal shuddered, and on the open page, the handwriting appeared.
"The secret room is so big, who are you blinded to? I'm going to go through it all! Ivan frowned, unable to determine whether what Tom Riddle said was true or false, but said disdainfully.
[Then you go.] 】
When the diary showed this line, it was automatically stamped.
Like a real diary, motionless, even if the fire is coming, he doesn't care, quietly waiting for death.
Ivan's movements stopped at the last moment, and Tom Riddle's calm attitude made him very uneasy, and it was possible that there were special conditions for activating the Slytherin laboratory.
Or maybe the thing wasn't in the Chamber of Secrets at all, and had actually been transferred by Tom?
With only one last step left to complete his mission, Ivan didn't want all his previous efforts to be in vain.
Thinking of this, Ivan stopped the effect of the Ring of Fire and found something in the drawer.
Tom Riddle breathed a sigh of relief knowing he had won his bet.
He knew very well that if he was completely worthless, the little wizard in front of him would definitely not hesitate to burn the Horcruxes, insisting on not saying anything, but there was a glimmer of life.
Although his strength is still very weak now, he can finally spill over a little, and when Ivan relaxes his vigilance, there may still be a chance to fight back.
However, Tom, who was planning how to do things, soon saw Ivan take out a white cover from the drawer.
The inscription on it was familiar to Tom, because it was the same inscription he had taught Ivan a few months ago...
