Settle at Hogwarts
Chapter 145
Tabor was a little relieved when he was sure that the unbreakable spell had been successful.Even if Tom really became Voldemort, he would never be able to order others to harm his family.
"Your father, also named Tom Riddle, should still be in Little Hangleton."
"He is a wizard, right?" Tom's eyes were full of expectation.
"No, he is not. I am pretty sure that your wizard blood comes from your mother. If you have read enough information, you should have seen the Gaunt family. Your mother is a wizard, and the Gaunt family is indeed Slytherin. descendants."
"This is impossible. Why did the witch die so easily? I always thought she was a Muggle..."
Seeing Tom looking shocked, Tabor did not try to comfort him.
"You don't have to believe it. It happens to be a holiday right now. I think you have enough time to verify everything I said."
Tabor's tone was indifferent, and he suddenly thought that in order to maintain the purity of their bloodline, the Gaunt family has been marrying close relatives for generations, so some characteristics have become more obvious from generation to generation: violence, cruelty, mystery, and restlessness.However, these characteristics are not shown in the current Tom.
"You're lying to me, right?"
Tabor just walked to his table and continued to brew the potion.As for Tom, he has neither the ability to harm himself nor his family, so there is no need to pay too much attention to it for the time being.
"I don't need to lie to you. As long as you are willing to investigate some things, you will be able to find out the truth sooner or later."
Tom suddenly became quiet, not knowing what he was thinking.
The silence in the bedroom lasted forever, with only the occasional sound of potion stirring in the cauldron.
"Tabor, Tom's dinner is ready. Come out to eat soon."
Tabor extinguished the flame under the crucible, glanced at Tom, who was still sitting by the bed and showed no reaction, and pulled him downstairs.
"What did mommy do today?"
Inas was about to answer when she saw the poor child who had lost his soul: "What's wrong with Tom? Tabor, are you bullying someone?"
"I don't have a mother. I have been making potions. I plan to finish the orders for the Malfoy family in the next two days, and then I will work on the potions shop in Diagon Alley. The summer homework for all subjects also needs to be completed as soon as possible. I used to work with Dumbledore We are also talking about participating in a duel competition, and we may need some practice during the summer vacation.”
Tabor couldn't help but think about his holiday arrangements and said it smoothly.
Inas rolled her eyes at her son angrily: "That's not the reason for you to neglect your guests."
Tom seemed to have just come to his senses and put on his gentle smile again: "It's okay. I learned a lot from watching Senior Tabor brew the potion."
The more Inas looked at Tom, the more she liked him. Who could not like a child who came from a poor background but had excellent grades, was gentle and polite?
When Tabor finished dinner quickly and went upstairs alone, Inas was still enthusiastically introducing the delicacies of her hometown to Tom.With that look on his face, he wished he could accept him as his godson.
"Can the aura of being born with it make people feel good?" Tabor also had to admit that Tom was indeed very good now. If he could pretend to have this face for a lifetime, that would be a good thing.
Tabor brewed potions at home and completed his summer homework. Although he and Tom lived under the same roof, they didn't communicate much.
On the contrary, little Viola seems to have always liked this "big brother", and even her favorite patron saint was ranked second to Tom.
"Tub, I still want to go to Little Hangleton."
"See your father? Or go to the Gaunt family?" Tabor just asked casually.
"We all want to see it." Tom's tone was very calm, as if he had accepted the reality that he did not have a powerful wizard father.
Tabor hesitated before saying: "In order to ensure the purity of their bloodline, the Gaunt family can even marry close relatives. Your other half's Muggle blood may make you ostracized by them."
Seeing Tom's unmoved look, Tabor stopped trying to dissuade him: "Then please pay attention to your safety. If you are not in a hurry, help me deliver this batch of potions to Diagon Alley, and tell your guardian by the way. If they illegally imprison you, the guardian can get you back.”
Tom's calm face suddenly had some cracks, so that he would not fall into the situation of needing rescue.But he still picked up the medicine box obediently and walked out of the room.
"I don't know if the elder of the Gaunt family is dead. If two wizards faced Tom, who is not yet in the third grade, he probably wouldn't be able to knock him out so easily."
"Zhizhi!" [Master, he used the Floo network to leave. 】
Tabor touched Cherry's smooth fur and said, "I got it, Little Cherry."
Tom left, and Tabor planned to take this time to visit his house.
There is no need to worry about the houses in the suburbs of Cokeworth. As for the houses on Privet Drive, although it is possible that they will be bombed after September, Taber holds the land title certificate in his hand, so he only needs to wait for the holidays next year to make a decision based on the bombing. Determine whether the damage should be repaired or pushed directly to reconstruction.
Taber sold the remaining properties, all in large towns.They were prepared to wait until the bombing was over before continuing to buy and sell houses, and perhaps acquire some land use rights at a lower price.
When Tub arranged all this, Dumbledore returned to Godric's Hollow with Newt.
When he was brought by Tool Phoenix, Tabor noticed that both of their faces looked a little solemn.
"Professor Dumbledore, did your plan succeed this time?" Tabor asked casually, although he did not know Dumbledore's specific plan.
Newt showed an awkward smile: "That's right, but it's very difficult. His power seems to be getting bigger, and his blocking force is getting stronger."
Dumbledore stared at Tubo: "This is where I think I need you, Tubo. When it is really impossible to curb his crazy behavior through some means, the only solution is to defeat him head-on."
Tabor sighed helplessly: "Although I still think that your intervention can end things earlier. You can also disperse Grindelwald's followers early to prevent them from causing more harm to the wizarding world. But... ....."
"However, I still don't want to do it, especially after you showed up."
"Well, love is really a troublesome thing. Newt, are Cherry's parents and brothers still in your box?"
When Tabor came this time, he specially brought the cherry here, just to let it go into Newt's box and meet his family.
"Your father, also named Tom Riddle, should still be in Little Hangleton."
"He is a wizard, right?" Tom's eyes were full of expectation.
"No, he is not. I am pretty sure that your wizard blood comes from your mother. If you have read enough information, you should have seen the Gaunt family. Your mother is a wizard, and the Gaunt family is indeed Slytherin. descendants."
