Being a bastard at Hogwarts is not safe.

Chapter 196

Brian opened his mouth and frowned.

Tom Riddle said quietly: "Brian, I do know some secret information about the Gunter family, if you are interested.

However, if you, Brian, have greater ambitions, I even know a lot of secrets in Hogwarts. With the ability of the two of us, it is not a problem to play with the directors or even the people in the Ministry of Magic.

In other words, Professor Dumbledore will be in some trouble, but I have a very, very important piece of information about Dumbledore, which is enough for you to pull him down as the headmaster.

This is what I can exchange with you, the only value I have left! "

After all, Tom Riddle stared at Brian intently.

Brian pursed his lips and lowered his brows, a little hesitant to speak, a rare hesitation.

With his temperament, he naturally cannot be interested in controlling the Ministry of Magic or Hogwarts, and the secrets of the Gaunt family are nothing more than the inheritance left by Salazar Slytherin or the Philosopher's Stone. Ryan doesn't necessarily like it.

He wanted to interrupt Tom Riddle a long time ago, but he really couldn't figure out why Riddle suddenly said such a word, so he suppressed the thought of interrupting him in his heart until he heard the last sentence.

Although Brian has always been unwilling to involve himself in the messy affairs of Dumbledore, Harry, and Voldemort, but when things came to an end, because of the various tasks issued by the system, the strange wand, and the fact that he was sent to the hospital by the sorting ceremony because of Dumbledore paid attention to his own mistakes as the beginning of his own safety and the inexplicable friendship with Harry, and he himself became a small part of the melody.

This feeling is rather strange.

But it also made Brian feel a little melancholy...

He seems to have become a brick of Dumbledore now, and he can be moved wherever it is needed.

But after getting in touch with it deeply, I also vaguely feel that Lao Deng seems not to be as impartial and selfless as in the original book.This is not to say that it is bad, because people always have selfishness, but it always feels a little strange.

In this way, the information about Dumbledore in Tom Riddle's words attracted Brian's attention. If he could learn more about Dumbledore, maybe he would work in a different direction.

After an unknown amount of time, Brian let out a long breath and shook his head.

"I'm not interested in the secrets of your Gaunt family.

Likewise, controlling Hogwarts or the Ministry of Magic is not something I want.

Even if Dumbledore really has any secrets, it has nothing to do with me. I only know that he is currently No.1 in the wizarding world against dark wizards.

I just want to live in peace. "

After all, he looked at Tom Riddle with regretful eyes, and couldn't help but feel a little depressed.There is one thing to say, the deduction of anything is inseparable from the grasp of intelligence information.

Before Voldemort's resurrection, he could get more information about Dumbledore and Voldemort, and his safety factor in troubled times would increase by a few points.

Of course, these are just fantasies, and they are in the most ideal state.

If the secret I know from Tom Riddle is really big enough to affect the wizarding world, then will I have emotional fluctuations and changes in my mentality during my daily conversations with Dumbledore?

Although he thinks he can hide it well, there is no guarantee that he will be exposed in front of a spirit like Dumbledore.

To be on the safe side, Brian made up his mind in the end and rejected this enormous temptation.

But it is undeniable that Tom Riddle is right. Even if he has enough confidence to make the Ministry of Magic suffer a big loss, he is still following the rules of wizards, but it is not necessary.

So why do people like Dumbledore and Voldemort who are strong enough to disobey the rules of the Ministry of Magic have to be suppressed by the Ministry of Magic and wait until the layout is fully completed before launching their own plans? This is indeed worthy of my own deep thinking.

And just when Brian was full of regrets but puzzled, Tom Riddle smiled from the bottom of his heart and said with a smile: "It seems that you, Brian, are not the same as the soul in "Secrets of Advanced Dark Arts" It doesn't matter."

Hearing this, Brian was taken aback for a moment, then frowned and said in displeasure, "Are you actually testing me?"

Seeing this situation, Tom Riddle straightened his expression and apologized: "Please forgive me, as you said before, you did not fully trust me, and I will not completely trust you just because you saved me. I believe you."

Looking at Tom Riddle who was apologizing to him, Brian's regret just disappeared without a trace, because he knew that Tom Riddle didn't know the secrets of the Gaunt family, and he wouldn't really want to Helping him control the wizarding world and the Ministry of Magic is just testing him. Once he chooses to exchange the secrets of the Gaunt family, Tom Riddle will think that he rescued him from here because he received instructions from Voldemort.

This also shows that...

"Under that situation, you can still hide something from me?" Brian asked, frowning, "How dare you fake your memory?"

Hearing this, Tom Riddle smiled slightly, and said calmly: "You misunderstood, I did not falsify my memory, but I omitted some insignificant things when I was imprisoned in "Secrets of Cutting-Edge Dark Arts" in the end. It’s just part of it, I believe you have already doubted it and even know what it is.”

Brian didn't intend to expose himself, and asked pretending to be puzzled: "Know what?"

Hearing this, Tom Riddle looked at Brian with a half-smile.

Seeing the other party's smile, Brian scolded himself for being confused: If he couldn't guess the general truth of what happened at that time, how could he say the words that Riddle fabricated his memory?

However, Tom Riddle didn't tell the truth, but simply introduced to Brian that the current Voldemort threatened him to tell Gaunt's secrets before imprisoning him in "Secrets of the Advanced Dark Arts". Saved a little face.

"Although I don't know what made you change your attitude towards me, in all fairness, if it were me, I wouldn't believe that someone would kill me and choose a way that would leave troubles behind and be a hundred times more cumbersome to imprison me. In Cutting-Edge Dark Arts Revealed.

When I found out that you knew the identity of my Gunter family and easily found the book "Secrets of Advanced Dark Arts", I once suspected that you were instructed by that evil spirit to extract the secrets of the Gunter family from me , but it can be inferred from Brian's attitude just now that you should be different from what I thought.Because when I mentioned the secrets of the Gaunt family, although you concealed it very well, I can still feel a trace of impatience in your eyes.

Then the situation may be a hundred times worse than I imagined. "

Speaking of this, Riddle narrowed his eyes slightly, and said with a serious expression: "Besides that man and Slughorn, there is a third person who has seen this "Secrets of Cutting-Edge Dark Arts", and even my soul was destroyed." After closing it inside!"
