After confirming that with his current strength, he could not destroy the diary, Ivan decided to try to communicate with Tom Riddle.
Anyway, no matter what he says, just don't believe it yourself.
That night, Ivan lay alone under the quilt, took out a quill and wrote in his diary, "Hello, my name is Ivan Mason."
The black ink shone brilliantly on the paper for a second, then, as if sucked into it, disappeared without a trace.
Then, some words that Ivan had never written suddenly leaked from the paper, using his ink, "Hello, Ivan Mason, my name is Tom Riddle, how did you find my diary?"
Seeing the other party responding to him, Ivan's heart beat violently because of his excitement.
The words on the diary disappeared quickly, but only after he began to write hurriedly.
"You seem to have offended someone. They threw the diary into the toilet, and I picked it up there." Ivan wrote scribbled.
"Fortunately, I have recorded my past in a more permanent way than ink. I always knew that there would always be some people who would not like this diary to be read. This diary contains some terrible pasts, some covered up pasts, some What happened at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry."
"Oh, so you are also a student at Hogwarts?"
"Yes, during my Hogwarts years, the Chamber of Secrets was..."
Before Riddle finished speaking, he was abruptly interrupted by Ivan, who wrote in his diary, "Great, then you will definitely be able to help me with my homework."
"Classwork?!" Tom Riddle seemed to be stunned, and it took a long time before he replied.
"Yeah, I've been trying to get a senior to help me, but the guys in Gryffindor House seem to be more interested in things like Quidditch, broomsticks, and breaking school rules, which sucks! You know, Professor Binns, a boring history of magic teacher, assigned a four-foot-long composition on "The Encyclopedia of Wizards in Medieval Europe", which I am still a foot short of. Besides, Professor Snape of Potions The arrangement of "Fourteen Methods of Making Common Antidote Potions" requires a minimum of three feet; there are also transformation lessons and spell lessons... ... "
Ai Wen's handwriting was fast and scribbled, like a freshman who didn't adapt to the study life at Hogwarts, and finally found someone who could help him with his homework problems.
"These assignments are very difficult, and it is impossible for me to complete them. Tom, you will help me, won't you?"
"I'm sorry, Evan, but I think homework should be done by myself. If you want, I can tell you some other things, such as the secret room! When I was in fifth grade, the secret room was opened and the monsters inside attacked Several students were killed, and one was killed in the end. In the end, I caught the person who opened the secret room, and he was expelled. The principal, Professor Dippet... "
"Yeah, then you're amazing!" Ai Wen quickly wrote, "But I'm going to stay up late to do my homework, and the Christmas holiday is coming to an end. If I can't finish these, I don't think I can use the monsters in the secret room to make a move. I will probably be killed by the professors directly. It was a pleasure chatting with you, goodbye!"
With a snap, the diary was mercilessly closed.
Ivan let out a breath and fell back on the bed. Today is just a preliminary contact with Riddle, there is no need for in-depth communication.
When dealing with Voldemort, one must be careful, and be careful not to be led by the nose by the other party. Aiwen must take the initiative of the conversation into his own hands.
Anyway, the diary is here with him, so there is no need to worry about the attacks continuing. Before he has enough strength to defeat the basilisk, there is plenty of time to communicate with the other party.
A few days later, students began to return to school one after another.
The news that Justin Fenley was attacked and lying in the ward like a dead man spread throughout Hogwarts as if he had grown wings, and the joyful atmosphere created just after Christmas disappeared without a trace.
The school became depressed and panicked, and all teachers and students in the school were on high alert, suspicious all day long.
As long as there is any sign of trouble, it can scare them enough.
Although Harry was not spotted at the scene of the third attack, this did not prevent others from suspecting him. Especially in the face of everyone's inquiries, Harry couldn't even explain where he went after leaving the auditorium early on the day of the Christmas banquet, which was very suspicious.
More and more people are used to discussing in whispers together, Hufflepuff's Ernie said to everyone, "Since Justin accidentally told Potter that he is a natural Muggle, I I always expected this to happen!"
What's worse is that most people believe what he said, and almost no one reads the article Ivan wrote in "Hogwarts Wizardry" to defend Harry.
Because everyone thought he and Hermione were Harry's accomplices.
Peeves didn't do much good in this either, he kept popping up in crowded corridors and singing, "Oh Potter, you bastard! Look what you've done, you're killing students Yes, I think it's funny!"
Moreover, he also matched with fixed dance moves.
With the help of Ernie and Peeves, now except for Colin, Luna and the Weasley family, almost no one dares to approach Ivan, Harry, and Hermione. By the way, there is one exception, and that is Malfoy.
He seemed to guess that Ivan and Harry beat him up on Christmas Day, so now he is always leading Goyle and Crabbe around them viciously, coming up to provoke him from time to time, like a cat looking for an attack. The hyena of chance.
In this case, it was considered best not to go it alone.
They spend almost all their time in the library except for classes.
Hermione flicked through the old documents fifty years ago, trying to find the person who opened the secret room. The only clue is that the man was expelled from the school and is still in Azkaban to this day.
As for Harry and Ron, they decided they wanted to know more about Tom Riddle, and they ended up in the school trophy room, where they found a special service award trophy, an old good character medal and a copy of the old Boys' Council On the list of chairmen, Riddle's name was found on it.
"You know what, he sounds a lot like Percy, the prefect, the head of the Head Boys, and maybe number one!" Ron wrinkled his nose in disgust.
"From the way you speak, it sounds like it's a bad thing to do," said Hermione in a slightly hurt voice.
"That's right, I never thought he would be that kind of person." Ron replied in a deceived tone, and then he turned his head and looked at Ivan nervously, "How are you going?" How, what did you find in the diary?"
"No!" Ivan shook his head, he thought it was best not to talk about Riddle with others.
"Look at what I said, it's just an ordinary diary."
"Actually, this diary is not ordinary at all. I'm sure it's fireproof, waterproof, and spellproof, and I can hardly find any way to destroy it."
"That's great, Riddle must want to take good care of his diary." Ron looked unnatural.
