Settle at Hogwarts

Chapter 24 Tom



After listening to this, Dumbledore thought silently in his heart. He felt that what Dumbledore did in Tubo's words really looked like his own style.

"So, will there be a bloody storm in the UK in the future?"

Tabor quickly shook his head: "Professor, none of this has happened yet. Besides, what I saw is only one possibility. After knowing this, the future cannot remain unchanged."

Dumbledore nodded and tapped the table unconsciously with his fingers: "Tap the third stone brick from the bottom in the corner of the corridor outside the library. Tap the same position five times with your wand, and a path will appear leading to the cellar. The secret passage, the exit should be near the Dean of Slytherin’s office.”

After learning a new piece of secret news, Taber's depressed mood due to worries about the future instantly improved.

Let your future self have a headache about what will happen in the future.Now Tubber wanted to run directly to the library and try how long it would take to walk from the secret passage to the Slytherin lounge.

"How about going out with me for a walk?" Dumbledore asked in a kind tone. On the surface, there was no indication of the impact he had just received in his heart.

"Where to go?"

Tabor asked curiously, wondering in his heart that Dumbledore might be taking him to see his old minister.

Dumbledore smiled mysteriously, but did not answer. Instead, he put his hand on Tubo's shoulder and stroked the phoenix's tail feathers with his other hand. The two of them disappeared into this small office in an instant. inside.

Tabor felt his feet were empty, and then suddenly appeared in a dark corner.

"How convenient!" Tabor glanced enviously at the big golden-red bird that was resting on Dumbledore's shoulder.He felt that Phoenix was the most comfortable and fastest way for wizards to travel that he had ever experienced.

Dumbledore took out his wand and lightly tapped himself and Tubb.Two robes that seemed a bit strange in Muggle eyes were instantly transformed into a neat little suit.

"That's enough." Dumbledore said, taking the lead to walk out of the dark corner and onto the somewhat dilapidated streets.

Tabor didn't know Dumbledore's purpose or even where he was, so he could only follow him silently.Looking around, trying to find some traces of magic.

"Wu's Orphanage?"

Tabor looked in the direction Dumbledore was looking, and immediately understood that Old Deng wanted to come and see the future Dark Lord, the current Tom Riddle, in advance.

"Professor, what are you going to do?" Tubo was really curious now. Knowing that Tom might become the Dark Lord, would Dumbledore take advantage of the fact that he had not yet become a powerful figure to directly eradicate him?

However, if he really wanted to do this, he could do it secretly without anyone noticing, so why would he need to bring himself with him?

"Do nothing for now. You said those are things in the future, right?"

As Dumbledore spoke, he walked into the orphanage with the door open. The people around him seemed to have not seen him, and their eyes were more or less numb to life.

Looking at the dilapidated buildings and the children in ragged clothes, Tabor couldn't help but sigh, and at the same time, he was glad that he had never been in such a situation.

"That must be Tom."

Tabor followed Dumbledore's line of sight and saw a boy sitting on the grass, mumbling something very strange.The surrounding children and even adults avoided that place intentionally or unintentionally.

"He, is he talking to a snake? Snake talk?"

Dumbledore glanced at Tubo, feeling a little strange in his heart. It was obviously the other party who told him about Tom, including his identity, but now he seemed so surprised.

Tabor touched the dense goose bumps on his arms and said with some discomfort: "This is the first time I heard snake language. Well, although it is not very good, I still want to say: snake language is really scary."

Dumbledore didn't say much on this topic, but quietly observed Tom's every move, watching him use a simple float to feed beef in the kitchen to a little snake, and blame another person in the orphanage. Child, watch him take away the food that others don't have much.Watch him terrorize the younger children.

"Tubo, what kind of child do you think he is?" Dumbledore asked, looking at Tubo beside him. In his opinion, whether it was Tubo, Grindelwald, or Tom Riddle in front of him, They all have talents beyond ordinary people, like luminous bodies in the dark night, incompatible with their surroundings.

"Selfish, shrewd, and knows how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages so that he can live a better life than others. Although the methods are a bit extreme, looking at the surrounding environment, I think even if I were placed in this place, I would not be able to live a better life than him. That's it." Tabor commented as objectively as possible.

"You seem to admire him very much? So will you become his Death Eater in the future?" Dumbledore's expression was somewhat intriguing. He seemed to be joking, but also seemed to be serious about wanting to know the answer to the question.

Tabor couldn't help rolling his eyes. If he hadn't gotten the "golden finger" of the artifact fragment, he might have had to rely on his Slytherin status to invest in a force early, hug the demon kings tightly, and act like an undercover agent. Please.

However, with the comprehensive strengthening of the body and mind by divine power, Tabor believed that even if his talents were not as good as those of the demon kings, they would not be too far behind.Besides, as long as he stayed at Hogwarts, when the time came for the Black Generation to start a rebellion, he might be able to slap the Dark Lord to death.

"Of course I won't be a Death Eater. This name sounds unfair. Besides, I don't think I will be worse than Tom in the future."

Dumbledore smiled and nodded, then turned and walked out of the orphanage without really doing anything.

Tubber was stunned for a moment, not expecting that Dumbledore would really leave like this.

"Tub, I remember you said you wanted to stay at Hogwarts and become a professor."

Feeling Tubo following him, Dumbledore suddenly asked a question that was not related to the Dark Lord.

"Yes, I did."

"So, do you still think so now?"

Tabor nodded. Before finding a better way to convert divine power, he must try to stay in Hogwarts.While middle school students at Hogwarts can stay for seven years, professors are guaranteed tenure as long as nothing happens.

"Very good. As a senior and future professor, it's not too much to spend some time in the school to take care of the younger students."
