Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil.

Chapter 125: Doing things like Li Weide does is indeed much easier!

Tom's statement not only made Master Riddle happy, but also Dumbledore.

In Dumbledore's eyes, family love is the most precious emotion in the world.

In his opinion, if Tom could begin to understand what family affection is, he would naturally understand what love is.

In this way, the change that happens to Tom might be even greater than when he was with Levitra!
……

Ten minutes later, Dumbledore was happily walking back with Levitra and Tom.

Tom looked at the joy in Dumbledore's eyes and the large check in his hand, and couldn't help but sigh softly.

Then he whispered, "As expected of you... Vader."

"Hmm?" Li Weide, who was suddenly mentioned again, looked at Tom with some confusion and asked with the same whispering spell: "What's wrong? I haven't said anything since just now..."

"I just want to say that you are worthy of me... No matter what problems I encounter, as long as I think in your way, things will suddenly become much simpler..."

In Tom's imagination, if Levi was in his position, based on his personality, he would definitely accept Master Riddle's proposal!

Levitra doesn't care whether the other person is a Muggle or a wizard.

As long as he knows that by doing so, he can maximize his benefits, he will never refuse!

Sure enough, after Tom accepted Master Riddle's proposal, first of all, Dumbledore's opinion of himself changed drastically!
At least, the look in his eyes when he looked at her was no longer as vigilant as before.

Secondly…as the legal heir to the Riddle family, he received a large sum of pounds.

This amount of pounds can be exchanged for a lot of gold, and then exchanged for a large amount of gold Galleons at Gringotts!

In other words, from now on, he doesn't have to worry about the bastard Li Weide's expression when he spends money!

Therefore, even if I didn’t see my father today, my gains were huge.

However, Tom's words made Li Weide very dissatisfied. "What do you mean by using my way of thinking, it's much simpler... Could it be that the money-grubbing behavior you just showed was also learned from me?"

"Yes," replied Tom decisively.

"Tom...you have changed. You used to just want to get enough strength from me, but now...you have actually begun to gain wisdom from me! So, since your wisdom has increased because of me, should I get a generous reward?"

Tom was choked by Li Weide's words. After a long while, he said helplessly: "I thought I had learned your essence... I didn't expect that I still only learned a little bit of the fur. I think I will never be able to learn your shameless behavior in my lifetime... Don't worry, you will definitely benefit from it."

Li Weide patted Tom's shoulder happily, "Very good, I was right about you. By the way, if you were imitating me just now, it's not quite right. You shouldn't have mentioned money. If I were you, I would have said directly that I agreed because I longed for family affection, and not mentioned anything about money... In this way, maybe the check you get will be for a much larger amount!"

"Ved, you are so shameless..."

"How is it shameless? If you say that you long for family affection, Master Riddle will only be happier! Because in this way, he won't think that you agreed for money!"

Tom was stunned for a moment, and then he said, "I have to say... you do make sense..."

"Right? You still have a lot to learn, kid! So... do you want to pay an extra tuition fee?"

"..."

Tom was speechless. He always felt that the Riddle family's property might be swindled away by Levitra before he could inherit it...

It seems that the warning of preventing fire, theft and Li Weide is still valid today!
……

After returning to Godric's Hollow.

Dumbledore gave Levitra and the others some instructions and then left.

At this time, Toby had already prepared afternoon tea and pastries for them.

The two sat down comfortably in the living room.

"What a pity! If it weren't for Grindelwald, you could have stayed in your father's house. Then, this house would belong to me alone!"

Although Li Weide looked like a mercenary.

But Tom didn't believe it at all. He knew very well what Li Weide's true face was.

"If I weren't here, would you move your secret laboratory here?" Tom sneered.

"What laboratory? How come I don't know anything about it?" Li Weide asked with a puzzled look while eating dessert.

"Ha ha……"

In Tom's opinion, Li Weide definitely has a laboratory!
Otherwise, where did he brew those drugs? Where did he develop those "fakes"?
Thinking of this, Tom couldn't help but ponder. Now that he had the funds, should he... build a laboratory of his own?

The Christmas holiday is two weeks long.

The holiday begins a week before Christmas.

In other words, there are still six or seven days until Christmas. "Why not... build the laboratory in Riddle Manor?" Tom began to think about the feasibility of this idea.

A quiet place, even if nothing can be researched, I can still learn some unique skills secretly without telling Li Weide...

"Tom, can you lend me your ring to study for a few days?"

"Hmm? This?" Tom looked at Levitra warily, "Why?"

"This may be a relic left by Slytherin. Aren't you curious about what kind of powerful magic is on it?"

Hearing this, Tom immediately handed over the ring, "Okay, but I want to participate in the research too! And don't break it!"

……

Just when Levi and Tom were spending Christmas doing research in the safe house specially arranged by Dumbledore.

Anne has returned to Nurmengard.

When she stood in front of Grindelwald, she couldn't help but feel panicky.

Because of her behavior, it can be said that she betrayed Grindelwald!

"You look nervous, Anne," Grindelwald asked calmly.

"Well... I... When I was deciphering the ruins with Wade and the others, I absorbed a lot of magical power in private... I heard that this kind of magical power is very rare... so..." Anne's voice gradually faded away.

"Annie... since you are the ones who found those magical powers, then they naturally belong to you. And... you found the right method for us, so you should be rewarded, right? Otherwise, our people might still be running around in the Forbidden Forest like headless flies until now."

Anne's words made sense, so Grindelwald didn't become suspicious.

After looking at Annie, he said happily: "It seems that this magical power is indeed unique. Your magic strength seems to be much stronger than a few months ago."

He paused for a moment and then continued, "So, those two guys, Wade and Tom, have also made great progress, right?"

Annie nodded quickly, "Yes... they have all made great progress..."

However, although she answered quickly, she still hoped from the bottom of her heart that Wade and Tom would never be seen by Grindelwald, otherwise...

Grindelwald could tell at a glance that Levi and Tom had not been strengthened! Then her betrayal could not be concealed!
"Give me the manuscripts you have, and then go to rest," Grindelwald said softly.

"Oh... okay." Annie quickly handed over the manuscript that she had prepared in her pocket.

After Grindelwald took it, Anne slowly left Grindelwald's study.

Seeing Annie close the door, Vita, who had been standing next to her, suddenly said, "This child... seems to be a little bit wrong."

"Hmm? What's wrong?" Grindelwald asked.

Vita said suspiciously, "Before, she was always very excited when she saw you, but now, she looks too nervous, which is completely different from the time she saw you before."

Grindelwald smiled and said, "Don't be so harsh on a child, Vita. I remember that you were also very excited when you first met me, but now, haven't you become much calmer?"

"I'm sorry, sir... maybe I'm just too sensitive." Vita bowed slightly.

"Okay, let's take a look at these manuscripts! In any case, we have made great progress!" Grindelwald walked back to his seat and sat down, then spread out the manuscripts on the desk and looked at them carefully.

After a long while, Grindelwald finished reading all the manuscripts, handed the manuscripts to Vita, and then fell into deep thought.

After watching for a while, Vita couldn't help but frowned. "The remaining magical powers are now hidden in the basement of Hogwarts? How is this possible? How could Dumbledore and the others not have discovered it at all?"

Grindelwald shook his head. "If it was contained in a huge container made of goblin metal like the magical power scattered in other places, even Dumbledore would have found it difficult to detect anything special... Otherwise, we wouldn't have found the clues until now."

"If that's the case... why don't we take action during Christmas!" Vita said excitedly, "Now, we have all the clues, and most of the teachers and students at Hogwarts are not in the castle during Christmas! Their defense is the weakest at that time! We just need to make a quick decision!"

At Christmas, almost all professors would go home to celebrate the holiday. Even Dumbledore would not stay in the castle all the time.

In other words, at Christmas, the defense of Hogwarts is the weakest!

Now is the time to take action!
"This is indeed a good opportunity..." Grindelwald mused. "But... I still have to find out Dumbledore's whereabouts first, and then find a way to transfer Dumbledore away. If he's around... it will be very troublesome!"

In Grindelwald's eyes, as long as Dumbledore is there, Hogwarts is unbreakable even if there is no one else in the entire castle.

"It's not a big problem. We just need to ask everyone to make some noise somewhere far away, and Dumbledore will naturally be transferred away." Vita said.

"Even so, we still have to hurry... Dumbledore will be back to Hogwarts very soon!" Grindelwald pondered, "So, we must first determine the exact location of the magical power! Otherwise, the longer we delay, the more dangerous it will be! We only have one chance! If Dumbledore discovers our purpose..."

Grindelwald stood up with a worried look on his face. "What if Dumbledore absorbed that power... then the consequences would be too serious!"

An enhanced version of Dumbledore! Vita couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"So, we don't have to rush, Vita. We don't have to rush before Christmas... As long as Dumbledore doesn't know, we still have the advantage. If we can figure out the specific location and make adequate preparations, we can act at any time! Moreover, the incident that attracts Dumbledore to leave... must not be too small! We have been silent for long enough... Vita."
