Hogwarts: I, Tom, am not the Dark Lord

Snape's vision... doesn't seem very good.

The fifth-grade male and female class leaders, as well as the sixth-grade female class leader, all three were defeated by ordinary students.

Tom was also surprised. He didn't expect that Slytherin was full of hidden talents and actually hid so many old...small silver coins.

If he hadn't done this and aroused the ambitions of these students, they might not have been exposed until graduation.

A problem occurred.

The prefects recognized by the school will not be changed at will. Even the dean only has the right to recommend, not the power to appoint or dismiss. Unless they make a serious mistake, Snape has no reason to replace them.

The invisible prefect and the prefect are not the same person, so who should we listen to?

In the end, Snape decided to uphold the principle of strength. On the surface, the three guys were still prefects, but they were just three puppets and had to obey the orders of the invisible prefect.

This can also be considered a punishment, or a spur.

Everything will be over when they regain the position of invisible prefect.

This trick was quite effective. The three former class leaders' faces turned green and they didn't have the courage to stay in the lounge any longer. After Snape's announcement, they hurriedly left the lounge. They must have found a place to train hard and wait for the challenge of revenge in the next semester.

The other invisible class leaders are surrounded by a circle of people, and people will unconsciously move towards the center of the circle. In the past, it may not be certain who is the center of a grade, but now... it is clear at a glance.

The lounge was filled with joy, except for Malfoy and his two followers who seemed out of place in the atmosphere.

They sat in the corner, Malfoy looking at Tom who was surrounded by people with hatred.

I was hung up all night and only woke up when I fell to the ground in the morning.

Not to mention the physical pain, what really broke Malfoy down was being humiliated by Tom in public.

He had never suffered such humiliation since he was a child. Even when he was treated coldly because of the duel, he had never been so embarrassed.

After waking up and returning to the dormitory, the first thing Malfoy did was to write a letter to his father to complain.

He was going to kick this mudblood out of school and send him back to his Muggle world!

As for whether it can be done, Malfoy thinks there should be no problem.

His father is a school director. As long as all the directors agree, even Dumbledore can remove him!

Judging by the time, his family should have received his letter.

"Invisible prefect? ​​Humph, I'll make sure you can't even be a student."

Cursing Tom under his breath, Malfoy left the common room with Crabbe and Goyle.

If Snape hadn't asked all students to show up, he wouldn't have gone out and accepted all those strange looks.

......

Wiltshire, Malfoy Manor.

Malfoy guessed correctly, his father, Lucius Malfoy, did receive his letter of complaint.

But he was not as furious as he had imagined, and he did not rush to the school to question Dumbledore and punish Tom.

On the contrary, Lucius Malfoy's face was pale and his hand holding the letter was shaking.

Just because of the name...Tom Riddle.

Voldemort has always boasted of his pure bloodline, but anyone who believes this from a pure-blood family is a fool.

He didn't just appear out of nowhere. He was the best student at Hogwarts back then, and everything can be traced.

Anyone with some background and good information who is a pure-blood knows that he was brought from an orphanage to the magical world by Dumbledore and eventually became the Dark Lord feared by everyone.

Of course, this is all they knew at most. The feud between Voldemort and the Gaunt family was a deeper secret.

But knowing does not mean exposing it. Besides making Voldemort angry and embarrassed, it will also make those wizards who resist them laugh at them.

A group of purebloods who pride themselves on their bloodline are actually following a Muggle-born orphan?

It will definitely make people laugh out loud.

Therefore, many Death Eaters tacitly assume that Voldemort is a pure-blood, because only pure-bloods are worthy of leading them. It does not matter whether they really think so or not. They need this concept as a righteous cause to strive for greater benefits.

Lucius learned this information from his father.

After so many years, Lucius heard the name again.

Slytherin, gifted and domineering.

Could it be that... he's back?

Lucius trembled. He didn't believe that the man was still alive. In order to break the fear in his heart, Lucius decided to go to Dumbledore tomorrow.

If it is confirmed that it is not the Dark Lord, then it is not too late to seek justice for my son.

Chapter 55: Visiting to question the crime, polar reversal

On Monday morning, a thick fog rose around the castle.

It seemed to have rained late at night. In addition to the aroma of breakfast, the auditorium was also filled with the smell of soil, making the sleepy little wizard unable to tell whether he was eating mashed potatoes or soil.

The Slytherin students kept their mouths shut, and the young wizards from other academies didn't know what happened this weekend yet, but they could sense something strange in the atmosphere.

The Slytherin snakes, who usually move in groups of three or four, appeared in groups today, vaguely centered around a few people.

This might seem a little strange, but not many people would care.

But Harry and Ron were confused.

Because the idea Tom gave them before helped them successfully disgust Malfoy, the two of them subconsciously paid more attention to Tom.

In the past, only Daphne was around Tom, and everyone else avoided him.

But today

Harry suspected that Tom had tampered with the family tree of those students overnight, making them worship him as their ancestor.

Some served tea and water, some helped cut sausages, and some helped spread butter.

Even worse than his aunt had been to Dudley.

Harry was puzzled, while Ron was openly envious, so envious that his eyes turned as red as his hair.

Isn’t this the me of my dreams?

How did Riddle get to enjoy it first?

"What's going on?" Ron looked at Hermione who was sitting across from him. "Aren't you two close? Why has Riddle become so popular after just one weekend?"

"how could I know."

Hermione retorted irritably and chopped the eggs on the plate into pieces in annoyance.

It was because she didn't know what had happened that she was so angry. Tom didn't speak to her for the whole weekend and they didn't even have a chance to meet each other.

Ron shrank his neck, not daring to provoke the furious Hermione, and could only chirp quietly in his heart.

Not far away, George and Weasley looked at each other and saw deep curiosity in each other's eyes.

They were sure that something must have happened to Slytherin in the past few days, which led to the changes, and Riddle seemed to be a beneficiary.

"I guess I'll have to ask this kid some questions next time we meet in the kitchen." Fred whispered, and George nodded in agreement.

At this moment, a large group of owls flew in from the open door and dropped the little wizard's package and heart on the table.

Tom was quick-witted and caught his package accurately, avoiding the tragic fate of falling into the milk lake.

Daphne watched Tom curiously as he opened the outer packaging, which was filled with individually packaged medicinal herbs and strange potion ingredients.

"Tom, what are you buying so many potion ingredients for?"

"Some of them are for my own use, and some are for you."

"Give it to me?" The girl blinked.

"Well, it helps you quickly replenish your energy and restore your strength."

Tom took a look and confirmed that the quality of the materials was fine. He repacked the package and prepared to send it back to the dormitory later.

Daphne looked at him with emotion, her eyes sparkling.

Tom was so thoughtful. He thought about the problem from every angle and...he even used his own money to buy the materials for her.

This made Daphne feel that she paid too little tuition for a while.

......

After returning to the dormitory to put their things away, Tom and Daphne rushed to the Transfiguration classroom for class.

Lucius Malfoy also arrived at Hogwarts at this time.

However, he did not go directly to Dumbledore, but went to Snape first.

After all, Lucius still had a deep fear of Dumbledore, and he would not dare to go to his house to demand an explanation without sufficient confidence.

So he went to Snape first to build up his courage, and by the way, asked Snape why he didn't protect Malfoy.

Snape was in class when Lucius came.

He was not surprised to see Lucius appear. He told the students to keep quiet and continue brewing the potion, then walked out of the classroom.

"Severus, shouldn't you give me an explanation?" Without any greetings, Lucius started to accuse.

Snape asked, "Do you really understand the full story, Lucius?"

"I've asked many students, and they're certain that it was Malfoy who provoked Riddle first. There had been no conflict between the two before. It's clear that Malfoy wanted to use Tom's actions to improve his status in the first year, but unfortunately he failed."

"What else can I say in this situation?"

Lucius became even more dissatisfied when he heard Snape's excuse: "A country bumpkin, you watched Draco grow up, Severus, he hung Draco in the lounge all night!"

"Our Malfoy family has been completely disgraced. Aren't we friends?"

You Malfoy family have no dignity.

"Yes, of course we are friends." Snape sneered in his heart, but admitted it. "But work and life must be clearly separated. They are both my students. I will not favor either side. You haven't forgotten the rules of survival in Slytherin, have you?"

Lucius was silent.

Slytherin has never changed. When he was in school, he relied on his family background and the "friends" he had won over to bully other students.
