Chapter 9: The First Meeting with Tom and the Collapse of Hogwarts
The next day, Andy had fully adjusted to Hogwarts campus life, and he felt as if he had returned to the university campus of his previous life.
After breakfast, Andy and Jim quickly went to the Potions classroom, not only the two of them, but all the little snakes quickly went to the Potions classroom, even the usually unruly thorn head lowered his head at this moment and hurried away.
Not why, just because the Potions professor was their headmaster, and Snape, the most vicious professor in the entire school.
When they came to the Potions classroom, the little snakes were in class with the little lions, and the little lions, who had always been naughty, were sitting on their chairs at the moment.
They may have also been warned by the seniors not to mischievous Professor Snape's class, after all, Snape was merciless in deducting points from other houses.
The Potions classroom was cold, and there wasn't even a cupboard fire in it, but it wasn't until Snape came in that Andy realized how warm it was.
Snape is indeed like a big bat, he wears a big black robe, long hair stands up, and his eyes are stern, no matter how you look at Snape, he doesn't look like a positive person, no wonder he often took the blame in his previous life.
"Now let's start class"
Snape glanced around the classroom, then paused when he saw Harry,
"I heard that there is a celebrity in our school now"
Snape's voice was magnetic, and he walked over to Harry, bowed his head, and said
"Mr. Potter, I want to test you can"
Andy saw that Harry couldn't answer the question, and many of the little lions were angry when Snape was taunting there, and he rolled his eyes, my professor, it's not for nothing that you've been misunderstood as a villain in the plot, so you can see it for anyone.
He still wanted to have a good relationship with Snape, after all, Snape was a Potions genius!
His potions were among the best in the wizarding world, so Andy wanted to learn more from Snape's magical brain.
The first Potions class didn't have much gold content, after all, it was just an introductory theory class of Potions, and the actual operation course would probably take a few classes to learn.
The afternoon class was Andy's more cautious class, not that this class was more difficult, but the afternoon professor was more dangerous, Professor Zillö, Voldemort's current carrier.
Professor Zilo actually had a bad reputation during this time, one was that he stammered, and the other was that his senior classmates felt that he was actually not at a good level.
Andy knows that this is actually a disguise of Zilo, can a person who goes to find Voldemort for the sake of knowledge be an idiot, Andy doesn't want to debunk Zilo, he just wants to live a good life away from the plot of the savior and Voldemort killing each other.
"Trolls are ....."
Zi Luo stammered in class, and Andy understood why the senior classmates felt that Qi Luo's level was lower, isn't this just reading according to the textbook, and there is no change at all.
Many of the little snakes next to them began to close their eyes and recuperate, and the little lions in the distance were also plotting something, they seemed to be very interested in what hairstyle was under the scarf of Ziluo's head, Andy only felt that they were dead, there was no hairstyle underneath, it was an ugly face.
Soon a class was over, this class Andy was very quiet, he did not answer the questions like other classes, but finished the class quietly, just as he was about to leave the classroom with Jim, Zilo stopped him
"Mr. Brown, wait a minute, you come to my office"
Andy was in a cold sweat now, but he still motioned for Jim to go back first, because Zilo didn't know that he actually knew his identity, and if there was any leakage now, it would be a big deal.
Andy was standing at the desk when he arrived at Zilo's office, and Zilo had already sat down, and he motioned for Andy to sit down.
Andy asked after sitting down, calming down
"What do you teach?"
Zilo didn't say anything for a long time, he seemed to be listening to someone else's words, and soon he changed his sitting position, but Andy also took out his wand at this moment, because Zilo didn't stutter anymore, but said something teasingly
"It's nothing, just want to talk to little Mr. Grindelwald"
Seeing Andy's reaction, Zilo didn't move to remove Andy's weapon, but continued
"You should know who I am."
Andy couldn't figure out what he had done wrong even if he wanted to break his head, and looking at the situation, the person in front of him who was talking should be Voldemort.
But he is relaxed now, he can't beat it anyway, and besides, this is Hogwarts, it's still difficult for him to want to die, after all, the person on the other side doesn't seem to want to die, and if something happens to him, the plan on the other side will fail.
"Hello, Lord Voldemort"
Andy gathered his wand and said politely, he knew that now Zilo's body should be in control of Voldemort.
"No, no, I don't like the name, you just call me Tom"
Voldemort shook his head, then looked at Andy and continued
"Are you curious about why I know who you are, and why you know my secret?"
Andy was indeed puzzled, but Zilo was quick to explain
"Because since the last goodbye, I remembered why your breath is so familiar, I saw you when you were a child"
Voldemort said to Andy with a wicked look
"And your defensive attitude towards me, I think you might know who I am."
But Voldemort didn't bother to say this, but said seductively
"Do you want to know what the people who attacked you and the people who protected you planned?"
Andy knew that Voldemort was negotiating terms with him, and that he should exchange his secrets about himself for something.
Andy is happy with this kind of exchange, although exchanging with Voldemort is easy to get involved in the main story.
But Andy did want to know what Old Jack's plan was, after all, there were riddlers all around, and it would be safer if he could have the means to learn about their plan. (Andy feels that his situation seems to be even more dangerous than the main story)
"Say, Mr. Tom, what do you need me to do"
Andy stared at Voldemort's eyes and said, the possessed Zilo's eyes were all black,
Voldemort laughed
"You're a smart man, and I knew you would be a good ally of mine when I remembered who you were, after all, their plans didn't conflict with my interests. You don't need to do anything for me now, I just want to meet with you today and have an open and honest conversation, and I'll tell you what you want to know later."
Andy said with a skewed shoulder
"Thank you for your openness, I'd better wait for you to tell me what I want to know, after all, you're no different from the Riddler I know right now."
Andy didn't really mind trading Voldemort or anything.
Andy considers himself an egoist, and now that his own affairs are a mess, he doesn't mind letting Voldemort mechanically tell him the answer.
After all, although Old Jack said that he would tell him the answer later, but what Old Jack's position was and what he wanted him to do, Andy didn't know anything now, so since Voldemort had the answer, it would be better, and it would be safest to take the initiative into his own hands.
Voldemort didn't say anything when he heard Andy's words, Voldemort's purpose this time was just to talk to Andy.
Although Andy is still very weak, Andy's own peculiarities are suitable for participating in his own plans.
It's just an equivalent exchange, as for the two waves of people standing behind Andy, Voldemort is not in the mood to care about them, and his comeback is the most important thing.
Andy walked out of Zilo's office to his bedroom, a little irritable.
He felt that he really didn't have any initiative now, what the people who attacked him were going to do, what Old Jack wanted to do, what Voldemort wanted to do by himself, he didn't know anything.
Andy planned in his heart that he couldn't help Voldemort too much, and it would be better if he just sold some information in exchange, after all, if he really helped Voldemort too much, he would be an enemy of Dumbledore, and he was not stupid.
Your strength must be improved quickly, otherwise you will be too passive now. And you have to find your own secrets quickly.
Thinking about it, Andy walked to the door of the lounge.
After the "noble" passphrase was passed, he returned to the common room.
Jim: They were playing chess and chatting, they saw Andy coming back and greeted Andy with a smile, Andy replied to them a few words and then sat by the window looking at the black lake outside the window, it was chaos.
Andy's mind was also chaotic because he was thinking about the problem, and what Andy didn't notice was that as he thought about it, his eyes seemed to slowly change to their original color, and there seemed to be strange magic words surging in his eyes.
Bite~
Andy thought about it for a long time, and he felt that when he thought, he felt that his surroundings were quiet.
The sound woke Andy up like a needle had dropped in a quiet library, Andy stretched, and then he looked back to find that his classmates were gone, and Andy thought they might have gone to the auditorium for dinner.
Damn, don't call me. Andy complained again and again that he was not righteous enough, pushed open the door of the lounge and walked out.
He was stunned when he walked out, and his eyes went straight when he looked back at the common room to make sure he hadn't made a mistake.
Andy picked up his wand, and now it seemed as if only a wand could bring him a moment of security.
The top of Hogwarts Castle had been pierced, and the sky was dark.
There was a light in the sky that seemed to be someone fighting, and the castle was full of corpses, Andy seemed to see his roommate Jim lying in it, the portrait of the castle was shattered, and the stairs were on fire, as if the whole castle had no life except for himself.
What's going on? I was in a daze for a moment, how did it become like this?
Why didn't you wake up with such a big movement? And where did Dumbledore go, and the professors?
How could Hogwarts be attacked like this?
Andy walked towards the gate with difficulty, bypassing the fire-breaking staircase, but when he reached the gate, he couldn't calm down anymore, and he trembled all over, because there was a scene at the gate, and Andy promised that he would not forget it for a long time.
There was an old man at the door who seemed to have been waiting for Andy for a long time, and he saw Andy come up and smile hard at Andy, his body was cut by a spell.
From the old man's trembling body, it can be seen that he is seriously injured, and the reason why Andy is trembling is not because the old man's physical appearance is scary, but because this old man. He's Albus. Dumbledore!
