Chapter 8: First Possession
Time passed peacefully, and there were hardly any major incidents at Hogwarts during this time - except for the mess Lockhart had caused in class.
Now Ginny almost understood why Mr. Riddle despised Lockhart's writings so much.
"He's a straw bale!"
Ron had said this more than once during dinner, but each time it drew Hermione's displeasure. Hermione is almost Lockhart's brainless fan, and even though she has seen the other party make trouble several times, she still believes in the fake Lockhart in the books.
During this time, Ginny became more and more dependent and trusting of "Mr. Riddle", sharing almost everything with Cyrus, her joys, worries, worries, and fears. She has opened almost her entire soul to Cyrus, who is greedily devouring her secrets and fears.
Now—
"Ginny" raised her eyes, and her expression was completely different from her usual expression.
Or it would be more appropriate to call her Cyrus now.
It was the first time in a few weeks since Sellers started school that he was trying to take control of Ginny's body, and he was very cautious and would give up at the slightest mistake. But in reality, it went even better than he expected.
Cyrus shoved the patty into his mouth and took a large sip of pumpkin juice. Although it was not his own body, he could feel everything that this body could feel now, and the food he had not seen for a long time made him feel very happy, and he planned to go around after breakfast.
"Colin Creevey?" He turned his head to look at a very thin boy with gray hair next to the table.
"What's wrong, Miss Weasley?" Colin Creevey turned his head in surprise, he hadn't spoken to this very cute classmate until the beginning of the school year.
"Take a leave of absence for me, I'm a little unwell."
"But I don't think your complexion is — wrong...... All right. Colin Creevey stared blankly at Cyrus' back as he strode away before he could finish his sentence.
Cyrus wandered around the school for a while, then walked in the direction of the Forbidden Forest. He needs to figure out where the school cocks are and then prepare for an opportunity to kill them all.
Passing by the side of the playground, Sellers gradually moved away from the castle and onto a path. On the path, he could see a vast forest in the distance. The Forbidden Forest covers at least several hills, and at the edge of the Forbidden Forest sits a hut made of wood.
As Cyrus approached, he saw Hagrid hunched over the field, where the pumpkins were almost taller than Ginny's.
"Hey!" Hagrid noticed him, straightened up and shouted, "Little wizard, hurry back!" The Forbidden Forest is not the place for you! ”
"Hello, Hagrid. I don't go in, I just walk around. Cyrus didn't stop, but slowly walked to Hagrid's pumpkin field, "What a big pumpkin, you used the Expansion Charm?" ”
"Ah, it's you, little Weasley." Hagrid recognized Ginny at this moment, and his attitude immediately became kind, but at the same time he became more vigilant. Thanks to Fred and George, the two mischiefs, Hagrid now has a psychological shadow on the Weasleys, "just a little help, and by Halloween, they'll be even bigger." Would you like to come in and sit down? ”
"No, I'll walk around." Cyrus didn't plan to eat Hagrid's little dark food, and immediately refused, "Don't worry, I won't go to the Forbidden Forest, I know it's dangerous." ”
"That's good, you're much more obedient than your two older brothers." Hagrid was glad that none of the tricksters he had to deal with came out.
Cyrus walked around the edge of the Forbidden Forest, and in a moment he found the rooster that had been kept in captivity. At the same time, he could feel Hagrid's gaze coming from time to time, for fear that he would suddenly plunge headlong into the Forbidden Forest.
Cyrus, who didn't have a chance to do anything, had to walk back slowly.
"The air here is really good, I'll go back to Hagrid first, and I'll be a guest here next time."
"Of course!" Hagrid said reluctantly.
He had always loved the House and the Weasleys, and the Weasley boys had a good relationship with him, and they were very friendly with Harry. Therefore, he was also very friendly to Ginny. The hut on the edge of the Forbidden Forest seemed a little lonely in normal times.
Even Harry didn't come over very often.
By the time Sellers returned to the castle, the class had probably begun, and there was no one to be seen in the hallway. But just in case, he picked up Ginny's wand and cast an illusion spell on himself.
Ginny's wand was made of purple wood, just like Voldemort's, and Cyrus was surprised to find that it matched him. The purple shirt wood symbolizes death and rebirth, and it is indeed very suitable for him now.
The only pity is that Ginny's magic is a little too weak, so that the disillusionment spell cast is not as good as he imagined. When he was still, he couldn't see anything, but as soon as he moved, he could see that there was still a shallow outline around his body, like a raised layer of glass.
But with care, it should be enough.
Sellers cautiously walked towards the girls' bathroom on the third floor.
At this moment, Filch's shrill voice rang in his ears.
"What's the matter, what did you find?" Filch shouted excitedly, "A student who skipped class? ”
Sellers saw Filch staggering behind the skinny cat, his whole face full of excitement.
Mrs. Loris probably smelled Cyrus and walked over to where Cyrus had stayed. As it got closer, the smell was probably stronger, so the pace slowed down.
Lady Loris looked up, her eyes puzzled, and looked into the corner of the wall with a puzzled look.
Filch also looked at it immediately.
"Nothing!" He cursed in a low voice and said viciously, "You must be hiding!" Cast a spell and sin will be added to the rank! ”
Having patrolled Hogwarts for so many years, he certainly knew that there were spells that could hide a person's appearance, and things like this had happened more than once. At first, Filch thought that Lady Loris had made a mistake, but it wasn't until a student's half-illusion spell suddenly failed that he realized what was all about.
So he immediately stretched out his hand and groped around it, looking like a blind man with normal eyes.
It's funny, but it works, especially when Cyrus's spell isn't perfect and just moves it will flaw. And so on
Seeing this, Cyrus had no choice but to take a risk, provoked his wand with minimal effort, and aimed the tip of the wand at Lady Loris:
Paint a false picture!
Mrs. Loris screamed, her hair standing on end, startling Filch.
Before Filch could speak, it rushed out, as if it had found some other clue. Filch immediately limped after him.
Sellers breathed a sigh of relief and continued walking towards the third floor.
