New Professor at Hogwarts

Chapter 52 Self-blame

"This is not an ordinary diary." Dumbledore said softly, "Voldemort, his real name is Tom Riddle, studied at Hogwarts when he was young, and I was his Transfiguration professor at the time. "

"You can almost say that Tom is, or one of, the most outstanding students that Hogwarts has ever had."

Dumbledore raised his head as he spoke, moved his eyes away from Riddle's diary, and faced the group of wizards in the office. The Weasleys all looked very confused, while Professor McGonagall, Harry and Sharon looked a little confused. a little better.

Xia Ran actually knew these deeds of Voldemort when he was young, but he couldn't explain well how he discovered these things that not many people knew about - after all, fifty years had passed - and few insiders were willing to mention them - The wizard involved is, after all, the Dark Lord Voldemort, and ninety-nine percent of the people in the wizarding world are afraid of him.

The wizards related to Voldemort when he was young, let alone the dark wizards, the white wizards always kept secret about it. Even if Dumbledore personally intervened, it was often difficult to come up with anything - Harry's sixth grade in the original time and space Professor Slughorn in Potions class is one of the typical examples!

So Xia Ran pretended to be interested.

"Since Voldemort started the war, few people know that he was once called Tom Riddle, and that he studied and graduated from Hogwarts and served as a prefect and president of the Boys' Student Union. Yes, Voldemort has always been so outstanding. "

Dumbledore said: "He disappeared not long after he left school. He traveled around the world and traveled to all corners of the world. He also got deeper and deeper into the quagmire of dark magic. He mixed with the most evil wizards in the wizarding world and passed through many times. An extremely dangerous magical transformation, and when he finally reappeared as Voldemort, it was difficult for people to recognize him."

"Almost no one connects Voldemort with the smart, handsome and studious prefect and student body president who attended Hogwarts."

"But... Ginny..." Mrs. Weasley asked, "What is the relationship between our Ginny and... Tang... You-Know-Who?"

"The diary, his diary!" Ginny sobbed. "I've been writing in it for months and he always gets back to me."

"Ginny!"

Mr. Weasley was stunned and said, "Didn't I teach you that? What have I told you all along? Never, ever trust anything that can think for itself unless you see its head clearly. Hidden somewhere.”

"Why didn't you show your mother and me the diary? Such a suspicious thing is obviously full of black magic!"

"I don't know!" Ginny cried sadly, "I found the diary in a book my mother gave me. I thought someone had put it in the book and forgotten..."

"It doesn't matter." Xia Ran interjected, "I don't know how many adult wizards have been resourceful and powerful in the past few decades, but they were still deceived by Voldemort. Ginny finally figured out what she was doing and took control of Voldemort. To resist, this is something that many adult wizards cannot do. If the timing hadn't allowed, I would have given Ginny extra points."

He comforted Ginny and the Weasleys.

Mr. Weasley still frowned, looking a little unacceptable.

"What Xia Ran said makes sense." Dumbledore nodded and said, "Although Miss Weasley gave Voldemort an opportunity due to her negligence, she still stubbornly resisted and resisted under Voldemort's control. This is worthy of our applause, because there are very few adult wizards who can do this. And it is also a painful ordeal for her, and the school will not punish her."

Mrs. Weasley said with tears: "Thank you, Dumbledore." She looked at Xia Ran again and continued: "Thank you too, Xia Ran."

"I am a professor at Hogwarts. It is my responsibility to protect the students. Mrs. Weasley, there is no need for you to thank me." Xia Ran said with a smile.

Snapped!

Percy Weasley suddenly slapped himself and blamed himself: "It's all my fault!"

Fred, George, Ron, and Harry all looked at Percy with shocked eyes. Would he still blame himself? ?

Percy said, "I am Ginny's brother and a prefect of Gryffindor. I should have discovered Ginny's abnormality long ago and reported it to the professors, but in the end I never cared..."

"Oh, Percy!" Mrs. Weasley hugged Percy and burst into tears.

"It's not your fault, Percy," said George. "We were just tinkering with our own gadgets and never really cared about Ginny."

"Percy, you have changed." Fred said sadly, then laughed and said, "But you are better after you change!"

Ron said: "We were originally looking for the heir of Slytherin and kept our eyes on Malfoy, but we neglected my sister who has changed significantly from usual..."

"Ron, my responsibility is that I set my sights on Malfoy, otherwise we would definitely have discovered Ginny's abnormality - well, Hermione, she also has a very good relationship with Ginny - but I let Hermione was distracted," Harry said.

"Children, there is no need to blame yourself." Mr. Weasley patted his third son, Percy, on the shoulder, and Mrs. Weasley hugged each other and cried. Although Harry is not a child of the Weasley family, Mrs. Weasley is very fond of him. He is like a biological son.

Xia Ran, Dumbledore, and Professor McGonagall did not make a sound to disturb the Weasley family and Harry. Xia Ran and Professor McGonagall were smiling, and Dumbledore's eyes were slightly moist. He may have thought of his youth. Family, at that time he was too young and energetic and neglected his family.

After a while, Dumbledore coughed lightly, attracted everyone's attention and asked: "Xia Ran, I'm very interested. How did you discover Miss Weasley's anomaly? And Voldemort's Horcrux, Until I saw Riddle's diary with my own eyes, even I couldn't imagine that Voldemort actually made a Horcrux."

"Horcruxes?" Professor McGonagall exclaimed, "Albus, did Voldemort really make Horcruxes?"

Looking at the diary on the table, Professor McGonagall said in an angry tone: "Is this the Horcrux of Voldemort that Xia Ran mentioned before?"

It seems that Professor McGonagall has a certain understanding of Horcruxes, but the Weasley family and Harry have little understanding, and they all look very confused.

"Yes." Dumbledore nodded and said, "Riddle's diary is Voldemort's Horcrux!"

"I think..." Xia Ran added, "It should be one of the Horcruxes!"

"One?! Oh my God!"

Professor McGonagall clutched her chest and gasped for air. Her face looked both angry and filled with hatred!
