Chapter 167: Tom Riddle curses Tom Riddle

"I'm really sorry this time, Professor Dracula." Newt said, "Rove, this kid has caused you a lot of trouble."

With that, Newt prepared to make a fierce face and lecture his grandson in front of Dracula and Dumbledore.

But he is completely a good old man's character, and his forced expression does not match the "fierce" at all, but looks a little kind and funny......

"Don't embarrass yourself, Mr. Scamander." Looking at the strange expression on Newt's face, Dracula couldn't help but say with some laughter, "Actually, Rodf is not entirely to blame for the matter of Assistant Coach Riddle."

"You don't have to worry about my face, Professor Dracula, who is to blame for this?" Newt waved his hand, "If it weren't for Rove's inconsequential actions, how could Assistant Coach Riddle be trampled on by Fantastic Beasts and thus seriously injured?"

"I don't care about your face, Mr. Scamander." Dracula chuckled, "But this accident may not really be Rove's fault, and Assistant Coach Riddle can't deny it when he comes."

Newt and Rove both had a look of confusion on their faces.

"Professor Dracula, Luna didn't make a move from start to finish!" Rove seemed to suddenly think of something, and his expression suddenly became anxious, "The whole thing is ***, don't implicate her!"

"Luna? Luna Lovegood of Ravenclaw? Was she there at the time?" Dumbledore was stunned for a moment, then looked at Rove with a smile, "Little Mr. Scamander, you didn't mention Miss Lovegood in what you just told us."

"Uh...... You didn't know Luna was there, huh?" Rove's mouth widened, "Then why did Professor Dracula say that this matter wasn't all my responsibility?"

"You're the only one who didn't tell us, so how do we know if anyone else is there?" Dracula shrugged, "I'm guessing you misunderstood me when I said you don't have to take full responsibility."

"Let's not mention that yet. According to you, Miss Lovegood is responsible for hurting Riddle's assistant coach, right?"

"No...... No, she really didn't do anything from beginning to end!" Rove was so anxious that he was about to cry, he really didn't expect that he would accidentally involve the innocent Luna.

But to put it this way...... It seems that the greatest meritorious service seems to be the horn of the "scimitar-horned beast" that Luna gave him?

"Tell you the truth, little Mr. Scamander, who else was there besides you and Miss Lovegood at the scene where Assistant Coach Riddle was injured?" Dracula asked, clasping his hands on his chest and looking at Rove with a smirk.

"It's really gone...... Rove said with a wry smile, "I really did it all by myself, who else would go to the Forbidden Forest in the middle of the night?"

"Everybody in Gryffindor is possible except Percy Wes." Dracula replied as a matter of course, "Oh no, Percy Wesley seems to be talking to that prefect from Ravenclaw, and the two of them often sneak off to the Forbidden Forest for dates."

"When you think about it, everyone in Gryffindor could be your accomplice!" ….

Hearing Dracula's analysis, Dumbledore, who was sitting behind his desk, pulled down two black lines on his face.

"Professor Dracula, have you forgotten that there's also a Gryffindor-born wizard here?" He said with a non-smirk, "As a professor, college prejudice is unacceptable."

"I'm not prejudiced against the academy." Dracula retorted without the slightest concession, "I've just made a reasonable analysis and guess based on the differences in the personalities of the young wizards of different academies, which is beneficial to solving this matter of Mr. Scamander Jr."

"But your analytic behavior is itself a product of academic bias." Dumbledore said, "Gryffindor House isn't all reckless, there are students here who follow the school rules......

"And Hufflepuff houses aren't necessarily loyal, kind, and sincere, and there are also mischievous, swaggering little wizards out there."

As he spoke, Dumbledore subconsciously glanced in Rove's direction.

Newt and Rove's faces froze at the same time.

One of their grandparents and grandchildren was expelled from school for raising magical beasts in violation of school rules; The other had sneaked into Hogwarts and the Hufflepuff common room.

Dumbledore's words undoubtedly made them feel very immersed......

"First of all, Lord Earl, I didn't share the Hufflepuff of Little Rov!" The Sorting Hat, which was also placed in the Headmaster's office, jumped out at this time, "That is, Dumbledore connived at him, otherwise how could someone else enter the Hufflepuff common room?"

"Is that so?" Dracula looked at Dumbledore.

"Sort of, I'm just a trivial push for Rove's admission." Dumbledore bowed slightly, then turned to the Sorting Hat and asked in a low voice, "Why did you become emboldened when you saw Professor Dracula?"

[In other words, it is the best way to read aloud and listen to books at present, change the source, .huanyuan. 】

"Isn't that nonsense? He's the same generation as my maker, and he's coming to me all day long, and I'm not afraid of who he's afraid of......" The Sorting Hat said the same.

Seeing that several people were arguing endlessly, and it seemed that they couldn't stop for a few hours, Newt hurriedly stood up and played a round for them.

"Albus, Professor Dracula, don't rush into arguing, we're not done yet!" He interrupted, "Didn't Professor Dracula just say that? Rove doesn't need to take all the blame. So if it weren't for Luna, who would share this responsibility with Rove?"

"It's not a person, but if you do, you can count it on a person." Dracula thought for a moment, then turned to Newt and said, "Do you know anything about the role of Hogwarts Defence Against the Dark Arts professorship?"

"I know!" Rove preemptively said, "Every Defence Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts will always have some accidents and will not be re-elected until the next term. Of course, Professor Dracula, you are the first to break this rule."

"That's why my grandmother and mother didn't allow me to come to Hogwarts for the biggest reason. They all said that every time there is a new professor, it will definitely be impossible to teach students well."

"Yes, that's exactly what it is." Dracula smiled and nodded, "You may not know, but it turns out that Voldemort had a grudge against him after his second failed job search and cursed his position as Defence Against the Dark Arts professor."

"Does this have anything to do with Assistant Coach Riddle's injury?" Newt asked.

"It's not just related, it's quite big." Dracula didn't know what was going on in his mind, and the smile on his face became more and more obvious.

"Didn't I just leave for more than a month? During this time, he was substituted by Assistant Teaching Ricdell, which means that he was the equivalent of a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts before I returned."

"Voldemort's curse doesn't work for me, but it doesn't work for Assistant Riddle—"

"It was precisely because of his curse and bad luck that he happened to meet little Scamander wandering in the Forbidden Forest at night, and he lost to this little guy by mistake when he was unlucky."

"Hahahaha...... This Voldemort, this Riddle is so interesting!"

Speaking of this, Dracula grinned exaggeratedly and burst out laughing.

Newt: "......"

Rove: "......"

No, is it appropriate that your teaching assistant is seriously injured and you are so gloating?
