Chapter 258: Confident Riddle

Despite Fred and George's well-founded and plausible excuses, they were twisted by Mrs. Weasley.

The reason was that the ink almost squirted into the plate of sausages.

Fortunately, Harry stepped in in time to take all the blame, and Mrs. Weasley only twisted it lightly and spared Fred and George.

After Mrs. Weasley left, Harry whispered an explanation, and Fred and George realized that they had misunderstood.

"So, don't you want this automatic inkjet quill pen?" Fred asked, rubbing his ears.

"Of course not." Harry wiped the ink from his face, "How could Hermione have written to ask for something that has nothing to do with studying. ”

Fred and George thought about it, and Hermione, who was serious and looked like "Professor McGourge", really wouldn't do that.

It is worth mentioning that this title was given by them.

"It's a quill pen that automatically flows ink when you write."

Harry looked at Ron and said, "Do you have it with you now?" ”

"Nope." Ron picked up a sausage, "I mean, who would carry a quill with them at breakfast." ”

"My dear brother, could you please bring it to us and show it?" George said with a smile.

Ron wanted to refuse, but was stared at by everyone, and he could only reluctantly put down the half-eaten sausage and went back to the room to get the quill.

"Is this it?"

George took it and kept writing and drawing on Harry's notice...... Soon, the paper was covered with traces of ink.

"It's really convenient to use for homework."

George touched his chin, and like our waterproof and moisture-resistant badges, this quill should have a refill charm on it.

"Refill the spell?" Harry blinked, apparently the first time he'd heard of the spell.

"Are you talking about studying?"

At this point, Mr. Weasley sat down at the table, and he smiled and said to Harry, "I think I heard you asking about the Renewal Charm, it's a very practical spell, like this......"

He took out his wand and tapped Harry's cup, and the pumpkin juice, which was only half left, suddenly began to rise and soon became a full cup.

"Wow......" Harry opened his mouth in surprise, "but...... Professor McGonagall didn't say that magic can't conjure food......"

"It's not conjured...... "it's just that the pumpkin juice that was in the kitchen is transferred to your cup, eliminating the time it takes to go back and forth."

I guess...... This spell must have been invented by an alcoholic. ”

Harry nodded, then looked at Fred and George, "Can you make quills like this?" ”

Fred was silent for a moment, "What did you just ask?" ”

"You Can ...... Too"

"It's not this, it's the question you asked when we first came down."

Harry thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "I haven't seen Kyle lately, is he out again?" ”

"No, he's been reading in his room." Fred said calmly:

"He's always been like this, just get used to it." George returned the quill to Ron, "By the way, you know what? The Chadri Artillery actually won against the Fratsa Eagles this year. ”

"That's the third-ranked team...... Could it be that the artillery team, which has always been at the bottom, is going to rise? ”

Fred and George tacitly changed the subject.

Harry was puzzled, but when he heard about Quidditch, he quickly forgot about the quill and got involved.

"The artillery team won? How do you guys know! ”

"It was Cedric, he went to see the game......"

……

On the other side, Kyle is indeed in his room, but he is not reading.

Not needed for the time being......

Two days later, Kyle retrieves the journal from the box.

He stared at Riddle's name for a moment, then flipped to the blank part of the second page, and naturally copied the Transfiguration notes on it with a quill.

But before he could write much, those words began to become lighter and fainter, and finally they were directly sucked into the paper and disappeared without a trace.

Then a new line of text inexplicably appeared on the blank paper, using the same ink he had just used.

[Hello, are you a student at Hogwarts?] 】

The words flickered for a few seconds, then vanished.

Kyle's face changed slightly, and he picked up the quill again and hurriedly wrote a large paragraph on the paper:

"Who are you? What about my notes, and why are you talking to me, and knowing that I am a student at Hogwarts, is this some kind of dark magic object? ”

The handwriting faded and it took a long time for it to reappear.

[My name is Tom Riddle, and it's not a dark magic item, but a memory left in a diary. It's like those magical portraits in the castle, so that's why I can talk to you in this way. 】

[You just wrote about the precautions for turning stationary objects into animals, which is the content of the intermediate transformation guide, and you should be a third-year student.] 】

Kyle raised an eyebrow.

It seems that Tom Riddle is very patient, and he has answered every question of his own, and it is not leaky.

Kyle thought for a moment and wrote:

"I know the portraits, and I talk to them a lot...... But this is the first time I've seen such an amazing diary. ”

"You're right, I'll be in third grade when school starts."

This time Riddle was quick to reply,

[Do you still study during the holidays?] I'm guessing you're a good student like me. 】

"I've memorized all the books!" Kyle wrote quickly, even his handwriting a little sloppy, "And I'm still number one in my grade." ”

[I knew I wouldn't be wrong, we should be able to talk about it.] 】

"Are you also the first in your grade?"

[It always has been.] 】

Riddle seems anxious to convince Kyle of himself, and soon writes again.

[And I also won the Special Contribution Award to the school in the fifth grade, you can go to the prize showroom to have a look, there is my name there.] 】

What is there to brag about, I have it too, and one more than you......

Thinking to himself, Kyle picked up the quill:

"Special Contribution Award...... That's quite an achievement. ”

"If you're as good as you, you'll probably have won the Order of the Order of the Merlin."

As if he didn't expect Kyle to ask, Riddle was silent for a long time again...... It wasn't until Kyle got a little impatient that new handwriting appeared on the paper.

[When I left this diary, I didn't ......]

[But I believe that if I want to, I will definitely get the Merlin Medal.] 】

Even with only words, Kyle could feel Riddle's confidence.

But what he said seemed to be true.
