153. I'm not embarrassed, I can

In the face of Scott's reminder, Ms. Gray seemed to finally remember something.

"I don't know......" her tone was a little uncertain, "I once told a student about it, but ......"

"Do you remember who that man was?" Scott asked again.

He ...... He's very likable...... Seems empathetic and compassionate......"

Ms. Gray hesitated the more she spoke, but she uttered the name anyway.

"I remember his name was Riddle and he was a Slytherin student."

"Riddle......" Scott's face changed deliberately, "was it 50 years ago?" ”

Miss Gray nodded.

Ravenclaw in the painting looks at Scott, "Looks like you know who this Riddle is?" ”

"I know."

Scott gave a helpless smile.

"His name is Tom? Riddle, aka Voldemort. ”

"Voldemort?" Ravenclaw made a questioning look.

"No......" Ms. Gray's eyes widened, "how could it be...... It couldn't be ......."

"It's true." Scott said, "Dumbledore said, Tom? Riddle is Voldemort's former name. ”

He ...... How could it be ......"

Ms. Gray was a little flustered.

She couldn't believe that the handsome boy was the same person as the terrifying Dark Lord.

Scott nodded, "Dumbledore said that Riddle was liked by all the professors when he was in school, and he was probably the only one who was wary of Riddle. ”

"What do you mean......" Ms. Gray couldn't believe him, "he ...... Riddle stole his mother's crown? ”

"It's hard for me not to believe he won't steal." Scott said.

At this point, Ravenclaw spoke.

"The Dark Lord?" She asked with interest, "It seems that something interesting has happened in modern times." ”

"Oh yes." Scott didn't know how to answer.

"That's not fun, Mother!" Lady Gray said with some excitement, "The Dark Lord is an evil dark wizard who has caused heavy suffering to many wizards! ”

"Oh? What did he do? Ravenclaw asked curiously.

"He ......"

Lady Gray began to babble about Voldemort's evil and the horrible things he had done.

Scott had been observing Ravenclaw's expression and found that she still found it amusing.

"Advocating the supremacy of purebloods?"

Ravenclaw raised an eyebrow meaninglessly.

"I never thought that a young wizard from a pure-blood family would be exceptional. A wizard's wisdom has nothing to do with origin, not even Salazar would think so. ”

Lady Gray continued to tell some of the things she knew about Voldemort.

No one interrupted her until she told of Voldemort's defeat to a baby......

Scott looked at his pocket watch, and an hour had passed.

"Interesting." Ravenclaw's eyes lit up, "That child's mother used blood magic. ”

"Riddle didn't die."

Scott added.

"He made Horcruxes, and the notebook that appeared at school last semester was his Horcrux. Dumbledore destroys the notebook, which is why Medea wakes up. ”

"I see, it's the same thing." Ravenclaw exclaimed, "Riddle is a descendant of Medea!" ”

"Now is not the time to talk about that." "If Riddle did steal the crown, we might not be able to get it back!" ”

Scott struggled not to think about the hour she had been babbling about, and then said, "As long as he doesn't destroy the crown, it's still possible to get it back." ”

"Where are you going to find it?" Ms. Gray was a little desperate, "I shouldn't have told him...... I was deceived by Riddle......"

She suddenly turned and drifted towards the door.

"I'm going to Albania, I have to make sure the crown isn't there!"

"Helena!" Ravenclaw stopped her, "Come back!" ”

"Mother......" Ms. Gray covered her face with her hands, "it's all my fault." ”

"Do you know why I commissioned this kid to find the crown?" Ravenclaw asked her.

Miss Gray sobbed, "It's a mother's treasure, and of course it can't just be left out like that, maybe it should be left at Ravenclaw College." ”

"No, the crown doesn't matter." Ravenclaw disapprovingly said, "It's you, my daughter, that matters to you." ”

"Mother?"

Miss Gray looked up and looked at Ravenclaw quizzically.

Ravenclaw turned to Scott, "You know what I'm thinking, kid. ”

"I want to ......," Scott glanced at Ms. Gray, "you want your daughter to open her heart and get rid of her obsessions." ”

"You're quite right." Ravenclaw said with a smile.

"Mother's ......"

Ms. Gray looked at the Ravenclaw with a sad face.

At this point, Scott spoke, "Lady Ravenclaw, I have taken this commission. ”

"You took it?"

Ravenclaw looked at Scott in surprise.

"Do you know how hard it is? If the crown had not been left in Albania, it would have been difficult to find. ”

"I know."

Skod's head.

"It's difficult, but it's nothing compared to the knowledge I can get from you."

"Worthy of a Ravenclaw college kid." Ravenclaw smiled again, "Of course, I always have a way to get my academy kids moving. ”

Scott laughed and didn't say a word.

"It's impossible to get the crown back now." Miss Gray sighed sadly, "Forget it, Mother, don't embarrass Scott. ”

No, I'm not embarrassed!

I can!

I can get the crown back in half an hour now!

Scott cried inwardly.

Ravenclaw looked at Scott, "What do you think?" ”

"I'll try."

Scott assures.

"But......" he said embarrassed, "I don't know what a crown looks like." ”

"You've seen it." "In the common room of Ravenclaw College, the statue of my mother wears that tiara. ”

"I see."

Skoll nodded, then at Ravenclaw.

"I don't know if you have a time limit for this commission."

"Of course not, kid. Although my time is running out, the portraits that remain will keep their promises. ”

Ravenclaw said kindly.

"However, if you find it after graduation, unless you can go to school and become a professor......"

Scott immediately understood her unfinished words, "...... Otherwise, I wouldn't have had a chance to enter here again. ”

Ravenclaw nodded.

Scott then left the Room of Requirement.

Instead of looking for the crown immediately, he began to think that it would be better to wait a few days to find the Ravenclaw crown and send it over.

By the way, you have to think about the rhetoric of the time.
