Tom Riddle is really good at seeing people and disguising himself.

After learning that the person who picked up the diary was a young wizard with excellent academic performance, he has been building his own "genius scholar" persona, trying to quickly get closer to Kyle.

Maybe it can't be considered a human design...... After all, he was originally a top student.

Because of this, he is always quick to answer Kyle's questions.

Even Kyle learned a lot of useful tips from him.

For example, in Transfiguration class, when facing relatively small insects, drawing circles with a wand can increase accuracy, which is much more convenient than poking directly.

"I've just tried it, and what you said really works."

Kyle scribbled in his journal.

"I always thought that wrist movements would affect the deformation results."

[In fact, as long as you are skilled enough, wrist movements can play a good auxiliary role.] 】

[This is what I learned from a very professional magazine, called "Transfiguration Today"]

"I'll definitely watch it...... Can you buy it in Diagon Alley? Kyle asked.

[You don't need to buy them, they are available in the school library, they are placed at the bottom of the fifteenth bookshelf near the right hallway.] 】

"I'll go see it when school starts."

[However, it is also possible that they have changed locations, you can ask the librarian first.] 】

[After all, I was made in 1943, and it's been a long time since then......]

Kyle looked at the words in his diary, his hand holding the quill paused slightly, and then continued to write:

"Oh my God, it's been fifty years...... I thought you were only a few years older than me! ”

[That's right. 】

[I'm just a memory stuck in fifteen, time has no meaning to me, so no matter how many years have passed, I'm fifteen. 】

"Then you must be lonely,"

[Not really, because I found you as a friend.] 】

Soon, another line appeared in the journal, and the handwriting was much more scribbled than before, and it seemed that Riddle was very nervous when he wrote it.

[Would you like to be friends with me?] 】

"Of course!"

Without hesitation, Kyle wrote, "I've always wanted to have a smart, warm-hearted, and learning friend like you. ”

"I'm so happy. 】

Kyle had been communicating with Riddle in this way all morning, writing faster and faster, and his handwriting becoming more and more haphazard.

During this time, Kyle will ask some questions about spells, and the most he will say is that he regrets not being able to become real classmates with Riddle.

Riddle, on the other hand, answers those questions while also probing Kyle about his situation.

Slowly, from some clues inadvertently revealed by the other party, he gradually had a general understanding of the person who picked up the diary.

It's a little smart, but it's a lot worse than him, and the reason for his good grades is more because of rote memorization, and all he knows is what has been written in books.

In addition, there are very few friends, only two, one likes wizard chess, and the other is full of Quidditch, both of which are the kind of mediocre people he doesn't bother to look at.

And Riddle can see ...... It's all true, it's not lying to himself, which makes him extremely excited.

This is simply the prey sent to the door, the same for nothing.

It's too easy to deal with this kind of person.

Because of the long-term incompatibility with the people around him, there will naturally be a serious lack of identity in his heart......

All he needs to do is play the role of a qualified listener and fellow traveler, and the other person will surely open up to him and confide all his secrets.

……

By the afternoon, when Riddle had lost his patience and began to bring up the situation outside, consciously or unconsciously, Kyle was not prepared to continue.

"Someone is coming......"

He hurriedly wrote this sentence, closed the journal, and put it in the box next to him.

Kyle stood up and flicked his wrist.

As I had thought before, Riddle did take care of the diary.

Just now when he was writing, he suddenly felt a sense of peeping inexplicably.

However, the time was very short, only for a moment, and if he hadn't been on the lookout for Riddle, he might not have noticed this subtle change at all.

And Riddle is not as calm as he thinks.

He thought that the other party would pretend to show his purpose for a while, but it was only one morning, and he couldn't help but inquire about the situation outside.

I'm still young, I'm too impetuous.

Who is the most powerful wizard right now...... Is the Headmaster of Hogwarts Professor Dumbledore...... Isn't asking this just to know what your future holds?

If Dumbledore is still alive and well, it undoubtedly proves that he has failed in the future, and he has lost very completely.

On the contrary, if he succeeds, the most powerful wizard can only be Voldemort...... Although this is not possible.

From the moment the diary was opened by a young wizard, Riddle should have guessed that Voldemort was "dead", otherwise how could something as important as a Horcrux be lost.

So the ultimate purpose of asking is probably to know the reason.

However, he had just made a start, and Kyle just made an excuse to close the diary, without giving him a chance to continue asking.

Kyle walked over to the windowsill and rubbed the feathers around Raton's neck. Anyway, Riddle seems to be a little easier to deal with than he thought.

The vest in the first step is set, and as long as he comes step by step, he should be able to ask a lot of things he wants to know.

At least the section of "Voldemort's Fate, Godric's Valley" is very valuable.

Want to empty the gloves of the white wolf? If it doesn't exist, it's fair for everyone to have one problem per person.

"Kyle!"

"Look here!"

At this moment, the voices of Fred and George suddenly came from outside the window.

Kyle looked down to find the twins waving to him not far away with broomsticks, followed by Harry, Ron, and Ginny.

Looks like they're going to go to the back hill to play Quidditch.

"Do you want to go together?" Fred asked aloud.

Kyle pondered for a moment, then grabbed his Halo 2000 and left the room.

"We mentioned you in the morning."

As soon as they met, Fred asked, "How have you become busier than Percy lately?" ”

"It's nothing," Kyle said casually, "but I found an interesting book the other day, so I read it for a while." ”

Others didn't care.

"Finished reading it now?" George asked.

"Sort of." Kyle said.

After completing the initial communication, the rest of the matter is to take it slowly, after all, he has time, not in a hurry.

Riddle doesn't want to know why he failed, so think about it.

Kyle was going to dry him for a while, but he wasn't going to touch the journal again in the last few days.
