Hogwarts: Harry Returns from the Witcher

Chapter 184 Tom is Voldemort

"Okay, but Mr. Potter, you really can't tell anyone else." Rita's attitude softened, and she looked at Harry eagerly.

Harry didn't answer: "Look at your performance."

Rita turned her head and looked pitifully at Hermione and Ron.

Hermione said nothing.

Ron imitated Harry and said the same thing immaturely: "Look at your performance."

Rita gritted her teeth, what happened to these little wizards?

"How about the things I asked you to investigate?" Harry asked.

Rita took a deep breath: "Those things are not easy to get."

With a blank expression on his face, Harry waved his hand downwards, motioning for her to sit down: "Looks like I got it."

Rita was taken aback, and felt more and more that Harry was not like a little wizard in the fourth grade. How could he be so sensitive at this age, as if he could see through people's hearts, digging out his inner thoughts? People found out?

"I didn't use Dementia." Harry waved his hand again, "Sit down, let's talk slowly."

Rita turned green.

It's useless to guess your own mind so accurately?

This group of masters of Soul Removal is really annoying!

She still didn't sit down, and took out her wand: "Mr. Potter, how about we make a vow, unbreakable"

Harry didn't speak, just stared straight at her, his indifferent and calm gaze made her voice gradually quiet down, her raised hands slowly dropped, and she sat down: "Okay, I see."

Rita took a deep breath, waved her wand, and with a few swishes, a stack of paper materials flew out of her small satchel.

It quickly reached the height of a fist.

"These are the list of former Death Eaters among the staff of the Ministry of Magic." Rita's eyes glowed, and she seemed to come back to life when she talked about gossip, "To be honest, it's really hard to imagine that the former Death Eater There are still nearly one-third of the apprentices still serving in the Ministry of Magic."

Ron gasped, eyes wide with shock.

Hermione was taken aback too.

"If this can be published in the Daily Prophet, it will definitely cause the biggest sensation." She imagined excitedly, her cheeks flushed.

Harry picked up one at random.

"August Rookwood, Officer of the Department of Mysteries, Ministry of Magic."

A brief introduction about him follows.

He picked up a second copy.

"Walton McNeil, Officer of the Ministry of Magic's Magical Creatures Committee."

The top ones are all "former Death Eaters" who are still working in the Ministry of Magic, while the bottom ones are people who are not working in the Ministry of Magic and are looking for their own way of life.

"Very good." Harry nodded. "What about the second thing?"

Rita continued: "Mr. Potter, I have to say, your request is really troublesome."

"That's Azkaban. Although the dementors will have less influence on me after I become an Animagus, it still makes me very uncomfortable. I took a big risk."

Harry raised his hand and tapped the table.

Rita paused, and quickly changed her words: "I went to dig Barty Crouch Jr.'s grave, and his bones are inside. Although it's beyond recognition, I'm pretty sure it's the corpse of a young man."

Hermione and Ron paused as they flipped through the papers, and moved the stool further away from Rita.

Rita gritted her teeth and looked at the two little wizards.

What's the meaning!
He didn't come back immediately after digging his grave.

It's been several days, and I don't know how many times I have bathed by myself, and I have cleaned everything inside and out.

And when digging, use magic spells instead of doing it yourself!
There's absolutely no way it smells like corpses or anything.

Besides, I was doing things for Harry, my dearest Harry!
"Are you sure that man is Barty Crouch Jr.?" Harry asked, "Can you still see his face clearly?"

Rita was stunned for a moment, shaking her head: "Of course not, he has been dead for more than ten years, and his body has long since rotted beyond recognition."

"Are you suspecting that the person who died wasn't Barty Crouch Jr.?"

Her face became more excited, and she subconsciously took out a quill and a notebook, and put them on her lap before she realized that it was not suitable to make any records in this situation, and put them back in her bag embarrassingly.

Harry nodded: "Go to Crouch's house and check to make sure that the person who died is Barty Crouch Jr."

Rita agreed willingly: "Of course, I'd love to."

As a reporter, I have a great natural curiosity and enthusiasm for exploring such risk-free gossip.

"And the third thing?" Harry asked further.

Rita's face froze.

"Tell me about your progress." Harry frowned slightly.

Rita sighed: "This matter is really difficult, Tom Riddle, such an ordinary and unremarkable name, there is no such surname among the little wizards in Hogwarts, I really don't know what you are looking for. What does his information do."

She's still trying to find out.

Harry didn't speak, just looked at her silently.

Rita restrained her face and controlled her professional habits: "I didn't find this person in the Ministry of Magic at first, and there was no trace related to him."

"But since you said it, I think he must exist."

"So I went to the area where the secret files are kept, which I didn't dare to set foot in before, and finally found some information related to him."

As she spoke, she paused: "It's just that those files are protected by magic, so I can't bring them out, so I can only dictate them to you."

Harry pointed to her bag: "Write it down with a quill."

Rita took out her belongings, opened her notebook, and just about to put down the quill, she paused again: "Mr. Potter, can I ask you to borrow a quill? I use this one for work, it may not be You can take my words down very well."

Hermione waved her wand, and a quill on the table "whoosh" flew towards her.

With a snap, it hit her face and knocked off her glasses.

"Sorry, I didn't control the spell well." Hermione said blankly, and withdrew her wand.

Rita stabilized her glasses and smiled sweetly: "It doesn't matter."

He spat hard in his heart.

Do you think I don't recognize you?
Miss Hermione Granger, the lioness of Gryffindor College, the best little witch in the fourth year except Harry, was even approved by the Ministry of Magic to use the "Time-Turner", which is only the best and the best. The magic props that are only allowed to be used by outstanding little wizards who have been taught to be the most reassuring.

Are you bad at using spells?

It's as ridiculous as Mr. Potter suddenly becoming reckless, innocent and cute.

Rita cast a spell and stood the quill on the notebook: "Tom Marvolo Riddle, born in Little Hangletonshire on December 1926, 12, was a student of Hogwarts Slytherin The graduate, who reported Rubeus Hagrid in the Chamber of Secrets incident, won himself a special contribution award."

"He has the surname "Riddle", and his mother is the famous Gaunt. It's hard to imagine that Gaunt would marry a Muggle, and few people know that this Mr. Riddle is from the Gaunt family. Descendant."

She paused, expecting to see a wave of expression on Harry's face.

But Harry looked flat, as did Hermione next to him.

Only the little boy from the Weasley family had a change in expression, but it wasn't surprise or shock, but complicated and frowning. Is this expressing disgust and disgust?
Ok?
Why is there such an expression?
Even if the Weasley family is not very close to pure blood, but they themselves are pure blood, they will not be disgusted with pure blood to such an extent.
With doubts in her head, she continued: "But he didn't grow up in the wizarding world, but was abandoned in a Muggle orphanage, where he grew up, but none of this affected his excellence."

"After graduating with twelve "Os", the Ministry of Magic offered him many excellent positions, including positions in the Department of Mysteries and the Department of Law Enforcement, but he refused and went to Knockturn Alley instead. working in a magic shop."

"And then"

"There is no record of him, and his life seems to have come to an abrupt end."

Rita slowed down her speech: "Because of curiosity, I sneaked into that shop as an Animagus, but there was no employee named Tom Riddle there."

"What's the name of that store?" Harry asked.

Rita answered immediately, "Boggin Burke."

Harry nodded, and Rita couldn't control her curiosity—at first, she thought this was a very dangerous person, but after investigation, she found that although this person's resume was excellent, it was also mediocre.

It can't be compared with Harry, and it's not legendary at all. In her eyes, it's just a copy of Miss "Hermione Granger".

Maybe
Mr. Porter was just scaring himself that night, but this person is not dangerous?

Moreover, he disappeared for almost 50 years, even if you inquire about him, it will not have any impact.

She hesitated for a moment, then said cautiously: "Mr. Potter, who is this Mr. Tom Riddle? Why do you want to know about him?"

"I can trade you another interesting thing."

"You know Ms. Umbridge, one of the referees of the Triwizard Tournament?" She made up her mind to express her sincerity, so she spoke first and told her news, "She has always claimed that she is pure Blood, related to the Selwyn family."

"But she's actually a half-breed, her mother is a Muggle, and she has a Squib brother, and her father is the cleaning lady of the Ministry of Magic, who is also surnamed Umbridge."

There is no shame in being born.

But she thought her origin was shameful, and she concealed her identity and resisted her relationship with her father, which was very shameful.

Hermione frowned in disgust, no wonder she didn't like that toad-like woman from the very first sight.

Ron's face also became more disgusted.

"It seems that you really want to know the identity of senior Tom." Harry said calmly, "Since you are so sincere, then I will continue what you just said."

Rita sat upright, waved her wand, and let the quill record Harry's words.

"After Senior Tom left that store, he disappeared for ten years. When he came back again, he changed his face with magic. No one could recognize the once good and handsome Tom, and he also changed his name."

Rita froze.

Harry went on: "And that name is familiar to you."

"Voldemort."

"That's the name he's been using since he changed his face."

Rita shivered, and she looked at Harry in fear, as if she had fallen into a cold hole, her blood and heartbeat stopped at that moment.

Tom Riddle, who was born of mixed blood, is the "extremely pure-blooded" Dark Lord?
