The Alchemist of Harry Potter

In April, the weather warms up and spring flowers bloom.

Hogwarts Castle has returned to its usual tranquility and peace, and no student union will pay attention to the attack a while back, as if nothing had happened.

Albert decided to find time to find Hagrid, ask him about Tom Riddle, and fill in the final piece of the puzzle for what he was about to tell Dumbledore.

To be honest, it is very difficult to hide from a master of Dumbledore, even if Albert's Occlumency is not low, but Dumbledore's IQ is not low.

In fact, the best way is not to contact Dumbledore.

Unfortunately, the panel quest rewards are too rich, and Albert cannot easily give up. When he has to contact Dumbledore, he can only take another method, which is the truth that can be followed. Simply put, it is to make Dumbledore think he is a genius who can piece together the truth from broken information. Anyway, everyone thinks he is a genius, and there is nothing to doubt it.

Leaving the castle and crossing the grassy path, Albert lifted his foot to Hagrid's hunting lodge, and before he could raise his hand to knock on the wooden door, there was a screeching sound inside the door.

The next moment, the wooden door was opened from the inside, and the hound Fang Ya swung his tail and pounced on him. Albert flicked sideways, then crouched down and slapped his head to kill him, subduing the emotional Fang Ya.

Hagrid looked at Albert, who was half-squatting in front of the door, and asked with a smile, "Why are you here, did you find something..."

"Go in and talk." Albert interrupted.

"Oh, almost forgot, come in!"

Hagrid felt that Albert might have discovered another amazing secret to share with him, so he quickly stepped aside the door and invited Albert into the room.

Hagrid closed the window of the room, hung the copper pot on the fireplace and boiled it. He turned his head and asked, "What other clues did you find?"

"Hagrid, do you remember Tom Riddle?" Albert asked mysteriously.

Hagrid obviously didn't think that Albert would ask about Tom Riddle, he was stunned for a while, and after a long time he said quietly: "Of course I remember, it was that guy who got me expelled from school. You said this!"

"I remember Tom Riddle as a Slytherin student, right?"

"right,

I remember it seems to be Slytherin house... what are you asking this for? ' Hagrid put a plate of rock cakes on the table and looked at Albert in confusion.

"You never thought that the person who opened the secret room might be Tom Riddle?" Albert broke the news directly and began to guide Hagrid's thoughts in the direction he wanted.

"Although he caused me to be expelled from the school, you can't just because he is... Wait, have you found any evidence?" Hagrid bit the rock cake and turned his head to look at Albert in shock. . He knew that Albert would never talk nonsense, and there must be some reason to suspect that Tom Riddle was the heir to Slytherin.

"There is no direct evidence, but something happened recently." Albert told Hagrid what happened a while ago.

"The Riddle diary that suddenly appeared is very suspicious." Facing Hagrid's puzzled face, Albert deserved to continue to explain, "You probably don't know, apart from the Sorting Hat, I've never seen one that can think for itself. Magic item, and the diary has disappeared for no reason, and the culprits who stole it are Gryffindor House students."

"Why do you think you're a student of Gryffindor?" Hagrid was even more confused. He could understand every word of Albert's words and the meaning of every sentence, but he didn't understand why he said that. .

"Someone secretly broke into Potter's dormitory, rummaged through his cabinet, and stole Riddle's diary." Albert glanced at the rock cakes that fell on the table, and continued, "You don't think that Suspicious?"

Hagrid seemed to want to say something, but was interrupted directly by Albert.

"You are also a student of Gryffindor, and you should know that students from other colleges cannot know Fat Lady's password, let alone break into Gryffindor's common room, so the only person who stole the diary can be Gryffindor many students.

"You're right!" Hagrid echoed absently, as if considering the possibility that Tom Riddle was the culprit in opening the Chamber of Secrets.

"I just know you may not believe it, but Riddle is really suspicious. Look at this, and you'll see why I said that."

Albert took out a piece of parchment from his pocket and laid it flat on the table, allowing Hagrid to read what was written on it.

Hagrid took the parchment and read the concatenated names:

[Harry], [basilisk], [parseltongue], [a certain Gryffindor student], [Riddle's diary], [Hagrid], [Tom Riddle], [The Chamber of Secrets].

They are connected by countless lines.

"What does that mean?" Hagrid put down the parchment, walked over to the fireplace, picked up the boiling copper pot, and made a pot of hot tea for Albert.

"Don't you think Tom Riddle is connected to a lot of things?"

Albert picked up the teacup, took a breath, took a sip of the hot tea, and continued to guide Hagrid: "Remember, think about what Tom Riddle did, think about whether there was a Parseltongue in the school at that time. rumors."

"What if Riddle was Parseltongue?" Hagrid asked tentatively.

"If Tom Riddle is Parseltongue, then he is undoubtedly the culprit who opened the Chamber of Secrets fifty years ago." Albert said with certainty: "Although there is no real name for this, I don't at all. Suspect opening the Chamber of Secrets requires mastering Parseltongue. Don't forget, Salazar Slytherin is Parseltongue too, and his mark is the snake, I don't think there's anything better than using Parseltongue as a symbol of Slytherin's heir already."

Hagrid doesn't know why Albert thinks this way. If you think about it, it's true. Although there are other wizards who can speak Parseltongue in addition to Slytherin's blood, he can't stand Slytherin Academy. Many things are like snakes. About, especially the way to control the basilisk.

"It's just your suspicion, we have no proof." Hagrid pointed out the problem clearly.

"You should know that we only need suspicion, not evidence." Albert ignored Hagrid and continued, "Although Tom Riddle lives in the Muggle world, it does not mean that his parents are Muggles, Even his parents had wizards or Squibs."

"Tom Riddle is a Muggle wizard?"

"The diary that Potter found was bought in the Muggle world, so he must have lived in the Muggle world as a child, otherwise who would go to the Muggle world to buy a diary?"

Hagrid knew that Albert was right, that wizards didn't have much contact with Muggles, let alone buying notes.

"If, let's be bold, Riddle is a Parseltonian, is it possible that he is a descendant of Slytherin?" Albert once again threw out a hypothesis, "I know many famous wizards and rarely hear about four The descendants of the giants, maybe their descendants’ surnames have changed, after all, if the descendants have no sons, the continuation of the bloodline will be inherited by the daughters.”

At this moment, Hagrid was at a loss. His IQ couldn't keep up with Albert's thinking changes, so he could only stay and listen to Albert.

"A wizard as good as Tom Riddle, I've never heard of such a number one, and even asked some old friends, and never heard of his name." Albert picked up a piece from the plate Rock skin cake, soaked in tea, asked with a smile, "Do you know what that means?"

"Does that mean he's dead?"

"Or..." Albert reminded.

"Or?" replied Hagrid, thinking, "becoming a very mediocre wizard, so unknown?"

"Do you think I'll be unknown for the rest of my life?" Albert asked rhetorically.

"No." Hagrid shook his head. He knew Albert's ability and talent. Unless he died early, how could he be unknown.

"That's right!" Albert said slowly, biting into the wet rock pie, "Tom was President of the Hogwarts Student Union in seventh grade, and by the magic of that diary, Tom Riedel is a talent no less than me, and I'm not bragging about it here, but I'm fairly confident in my talent."

"You mean..."

"He probably changed his name."

"Why do you think so?" Hagrid asked in confusion.

"Tom's name is already rotten. My cats are named Tom."

"Why did he do this?" Hagrid was even more confused. According to Albert's analysis, Tom Riddle was indeed suspicious.

"The reason why he wants to report you is probably because he doesn't want the school to be closed." Albert threw out the last big killer, "Don't be in a hurry to deny, after you are caught, the Hogwarts attack will stop completely. Now, are you the heir of Slytherin?"

"Of course not," cried Hagrid excitedly.

"Don't yell at me, of course I know you're not." Albert tried to soothe Hagrid's excitement, "But after you were caught, the attack stopped, that's the point."

"The point?" Hagrid obviously didn't understand what Albert meant.

"After you were caught, the attack stopped and people thought you were the culprit," Albert reminded. "If the attack continued after you were caught, they knew they had Wrong person."

"Yes, that's right, that's it." Hagrid seemed to figure it out and stood up excitedly.

"Since you're not the heir to Slytherin, why did the attack stop when you were caught?" Abbott continued, "Naturally the attacker wanted to put you in the wrong, and Tom Lee, who won the Special Contribution Award Del is the biggest suspect."

"why?"

"Because he is the biggest profitee, the suspicion is naturally the biggest."

"I remember that only Dumbledore thought I was innocent," said Hagrid sadly. "Later, he persuaded Professor Dippet to let me stay as gamekeeper."

"No, you are wrong. In fact, most professors know that you are innocent as long as they have no problem with their brains." Albert said calmly, "otherwise, why do you think you are staying at Hogwarts instead of Living in Azkaban? Headmaster Dippet certainly knew that, so he agreed with Dumbledore."

"But why..." Hagrid opened his mouth in shock.

"They need a scapegoat, and after you're caught, the attacks stop, so you're the best person to take the blame, it always needs someone to do it." Albert's face was hard to hide. Ironically, "After all, a student has died, and he always needs to give an account to his family, and you were caught on the spot by Riddle and released the young eight-eyed giant spider, so you can't prove your innocence, even if it's Deng Bridoo can't help you either, so don't blame others."

Hagrid was silent for a long time. Although he was reluctant to admit it, Albert had explained it to him in detail, and what he said made sense.

"Why do you think I'm innocent?" Hagrid asked curiously. "Why do you think I'm not the culprit, and why do you say that other people know it at a glance."

"Because you're not Parseltongue, because you have giant blood. Of course, others may not consider that, but Slytherin's heir must be a sinister, clever guy, and most likely in Slater. Lin, not in Gryffindor, and your brain... ahem, it can only be regarded as ordinary among many students." Albert shrugged and said, "Slytherin's secret room can be hidden in the castle. It hasn't been discovered by others for a thousand years, and it's not easy for ordinary people to find the secret room, so you know why I say that."

"Humph!" Hagrid snorted in dissatisfaction, a little dissatisfied with Albert that he was not smart, even though it was true.

"If Tom Riddle opened the Chamber of Secrets last time, and who opened the Chamber of Secrets this time, you'd say Parseltongue except Harry, and no other student in the school is Parseltongue, And according to you, Parseltongue is also required to control the basilisk attack on the students."

"If these assumptions are true, Riddle's diary is very suspicious." Albert expressed his point of view, "Since he can automatically answer the questions of the person who wrote it, why can't he speak? Let a diary Speaking, it's actually not that difficult!"

Albert pulled out his wand and pointed lightly at the parchment just now, and the parchment made a sound one by one.

"If Riddle left some weird magic on the diary, it is naturally possible to open the secret room and control the basilisk through the diary. Don't forget, the diary has its own mind. The only question now is what will Tom Riddle do? No Parseltongue, is he the one who opened the Chamber of Secrets fifty years ago. Did he change his name?"

"Come on, what's your final answer?" Hagrid asked, taking a deep breath.

"You-Know-Who." Albert tapped lightly, letting the name appear on the parchment. After he connected with Tom Riddle, everything could be explained.

"Mystery man!"

Hagrid's breath went fast when he saw the name. "Do you have any evidence?"

"No." Albert shook his head, "However, I will find clues."

He naturally wouldn't tell Hagrid the secret of Voldemort's name, otherwise it would be hard to explain it clearly.

[Tom Marvolo Riddle's English is "Tom Marvolo Riddle", and "I Am Lord Voldemort" is "I Am Lord Voldemort" in English. The letters are the same, just arranged differently. 】
