The Dark Lord's Guide to Employment at Hogwarts

"The result is that Anne is not Grindelwald in disguise."

Tom:?

Chapter 77: You have an opinion? Then go find the Auror!

"Do you think he's going to turn into a little girl and sneak into Hogwarts?" Tom asked in shock.

"It's a small possibility, but it's still a possibility." Li Weide couldn't help but rub his nose, which was a little itchy from the potion. "This is a serious matter, so we have to be cautious. What if it really is that old guy?"

Tom recalled Anne's actions when she was resisting the potion.

"Even if she's not that old guy, she doesn't seem like an ordinary first-year student. Do you think she could be another member of the Witch Party?"

Li Weide shook his head. "Probably not. At the moment of the accident, it's hard to conceal human instinct. Although her reaction was quick and she responded promptly, her magic power hasn't reached the level of an adult wizard. At most, it's about the same as yours now."

"Besides, a battle-hardened member of the Wu Clan is always alert to her surroundings. But just now, if I hadn't deliberately made a noise, she would have almost been unable to react. And her panic at that moment was simply impossible to conceal... This doesn't align with the qualities of a qualified Wu Clan member."

In fact, Li Weide's other views can be said to be just speculation.

But the only thing that Li Weide can be very sure of is the strength of his magic.

After mastering nightmare magic, he became very sensitive to soul strength. If Annie deliberately weakened her magic strength, Levid would not be able to hide it.

"So, she's okay?" Tom asked doubtfully.

"That's not necessarily true. Who says that only adults can join the Wucui Party? There are many people who joined the Wucui Party since childhood. Didn't you almost want to follow him at the beginning?" Li Weide said.

Tom blushed at being suddenly exposed, and whispered, "At that time, I did think he was quite right."

Li Weide continued, "Anyway, since she's not that old guy, it will be much easier."

The two were whispering in the team voice chat.

Suddenly, Tom was hit hard from behind and staggered.

Tom turned his head and saw the girl named McLaggen looking at them with disdain.

"You can even make a mistake when brewing boil potion. With such a low level of skill, you can actually get Felicis Felix as a reward? Humph... Slytherin!"

Levid and Tom looked at each other, then simultaneously took out the Felicity Potion and waved it in front of McLaggen, with the same smug expression on their faces.

Tom said, "You don't agree? You want to bite me?"

Li Weide also said: "You have any objections? Then why don't you report to the Ministry of Magic and find the Aurors?"

"You...you shouldn't be so arrogant!" McLaggen said angrily. "Don't think you can do whatever you want just because the professor favors you!"

Li Weide raised his head arrogantly, "Eh? Sorry, just because I have the professor's favor, I can do whatever I want."

McLaggen was furious. "I've never seen anyone as arrogant as you!"

"Eh? So you saw it now? Is there anything else? If not, don't block us from eating. We still have classes in the afternoon."

Livid and Tom ignored the almost furious McLaggen and swaggered away.

Miss McLaggen was left dishevelled in the wind.

……

The afternoon Herbology class was much calmer than Potions class.

Because this time, the class with Slytherin is Hufflepuff.

The professor of Herbology was a beautiful young witch named Elia Garrick.

Professor Garrick is very approachable. Her great-aunt, Mirabell Garrick, was also a professor of Herbology at Hogwarts. It is said that she looks very much like her great-aunt.

Although their family are all of Muggle origin, with only one wizard appearing every other generation, they are all very talented in herbology.

Two hours later, they came out of the greenhouse covered in mud.

Tom felt like he was about to die.

"Fortunately... the Herbology class has a lot of practical exercises, otherwise, I suspect I would fall asleep while standing..." Tom said thankfully.

Li Weide shook his head and said, "No, this is your illusion. In fact, you fell asleep in class for quite a while."

"What did you say?!" Tom was shocked, but he had been abused by Levitra for a long time, and he knew Levitra's dog well, so he didn't believe Levitra's words immediately.

Anne, who had caught up with them at some point, suddenly said, "What he said is true. Professor Garrick also told us not to wake you up, saying that waking you suddenly might scare you... Ah, Professor Garrick is really gentle! Of course, points will still be deducted. After all, you fell asleep in class. Well, you have been deducted five points..."

"I... I actually fell asleep in class for a while? And I was deducted points? But... but why didn't I feel it?" Tom grabbed his hair hard, and messed up his originally smooth black hair into a mess.

Li Weide laughed and said, "Don't grab your hair so hard, Tom. What if you turn into a boiled egg early?"

"No! Wade, you did it, right?! You..." Tom glanced at Annie next to him, and finally held back, not revealing Li Weide's abilities. "You...you are a dog!"

"I just saw that you were too tired and was afraid that you would die suddenly."

"I'd rather die suddenly!"

"I don't think you're that afraid of death."

"...Shit." Tom was speechless.

……

Tom was so depressed that he didn't even eat and went back to the dormitory to sleep.

The key is still tired...

Li Weide went to the auditorium to have dinner with Anne, Alphard, Henry and others.

In fact, in the entire Slytherin, only these three people are willing to contact Levitra and Tom.

A prank that Tom had done on the Hogwarts Express had led to the two of them being isolated now.

This was something Li Weide had not expected, but it had no impact on him.

As Tom said before, he didn't come to Hogwarts to make friends.

When they arrived at the Slytherin table, the people next to them immediately moved two or three meters away, as if they were avoiding the plague.

Li Weide sat down generously, and then said: "You see, if possible, don't get too close to me, otherwise you won't make any friends, and you may even be retaliated against because of us."

"This...what's going on?" Alphard was a little confused. With his simple mind, he still hadn't figured out the reason.

Henry shook his head. "Alas, Slytherin House shouldn't be like this... Don't you understand? Wade and Tom have been isolated. Didn't you notice? They earned forty points for us Slytherin today, but no one even applauded."

"This... this is not good!" Alphard finally understood a little. "Why are they just like my sister?"

"I am an outsider and have conflicts with some of the pure-bloods among them. I will definitely be excluded. It is not a good thing for you to be too close to me." Li Weide said as he found a chicken leg from a pile of potatoes cooked in various ways.

"We are not that kind of people. If a friend is ostracized, would we stay away from him for fear of getting into trouble? People like that don't deserve to have friends." Alphard said firmly.

Henry said with disdain, "Anyway, I'm not afraid. If they want to bully me, we, the Avery family, are not to be trifled with. If they hurt me... ha, that's perfect! I'll just write to my father and grandfather and tell them we can't blackmail them to death! It just so happens that my grandfather wants to buy a new carriage..."

Anne smiled without saying anything, but like Henry and the others, she ignored the gazes of others and sat next to Li Weide.

"Thank you." Li Weide said with a smile.

Even if someone like Annie is most likely pretending, at least on the surface, there is a little warmth in having a few people who don't isolate her.

However, it's about time these Slytherins were given another beating...

Anyway, with Professor Slughorn here, he wouldn't be punished much if he tried to outnumber the enemy a few more times. It would only make him appreciate him more.

Professor Slughorn wants to make Levitra and Tom his connections.

And doesn't Levid also want to make friends with Professor Slughorn and make use of the connections he already has?

……

That night, Li Weide lay quietly in bed and did not sit up until late at night.

He looked at Tom's bed next to him.

Tom was indeed very tired and had not woken up yet.

Li Weide got up quietly and slipped out of the dormitory quickly.

This time, he brought Nagini with him.

However, just as I arrived at the common room, I saw a thin figure in a cloak walking down from the girls' dormitory on the second floor.

Li Weide didn't pay much attention to it at first. He thought that a girl had forgotten something in the common room and was going to come down to get it.

But he soon realized something was wrong.

The girl seemed to disappear after turning behind a pillar!

Li Weide was a little surprised and quickly cast an illusion spell on himself at the corner.

Just as Li Weide stood still and completely invisible, suddenly, the door leading to the outside of the common room opened by itself.

Then it fell down on its own!

It was as if a completely transparent person walked out!

Li Weide became alert instantly.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss..." Suddenly, Nagini said a few words to Levid.

After studying for such a long time, Li Weide has mastered a lot of snake language with his superb memory.

So, he could understand what Nagini said.

What Nagini meant just now was that she felt something leaving the common room, and judging from the temperature of that thing, it seemed to be a human girl.

"She has an invisible cloak!" Li Weide understood immediately. Perhaps, he felt someone was peeping at him in the library last night, and that person should be that girl!

"Nagini, show me the way!" said Levid.

Snakes, in addition to being able to see with their eyes, can also detect prey through their body temperature. Therefore, even if the other party is wearing the Potter family's invisibility cloak, there is no way they can escape Nagini's deliberate search!

Nagini nodded and motioned for Levid to follow.

Chapter 78 Anne's Dream

The moonlight was bright, casting an eerie shadow on the castle corridor.

Li Weide walked quietly in the corridor, his eyes fixed on the empty space in front of him.

At this time, everything was quiet, so even without Nagini to show him the way, he could faintly hear the subtle footsteps in front of him.

The disillusionment spell, which was blessed by ancient magic, made Levid's figure completely hidden in the darkness of the castle.

It's like a poisonous snake hiding in the darkness and staring at its prey.

"Hiss... (turn left)" At a fork in the road, Nagini continued to point the way.

Li Weide turned into the corridor on the left.

There are many ancient armors on both sides of this corridor, and many oil paintings are hung on the walls.

A faint snoring sound could be heard from the painting, as if the person in the painting had fallen asleep.

The joints of several suits of armor were creaking, as if there were people inside.

Suddenly, a window at the end of the corridor slowly opened, and then a small footprint appeared on the windowsill.

When Li Weide approached the open window, he found that there was a flower garden outside the window, not far from the greenhouse of the herbal medicine class.

There was a rustling sound in the flowerbed, which should be the sound of the man's robe brushing against the grass.

Li Weide also climbed over the window, but thanks to the silencing spell he cast on his shoes, his landing did not make any sound.

At the same time, he was also a little confused as to what this person was doing near the greenhouse.

Soon, his doubts were resolved.

Because he found that in the passage from the greenhouse to the castle, a sewer manhole cover was silently removed and then silently covered again.

Li Weide frowned and hurriedly followed.

"Nagini, is she still down there?"

"Hiss hiss hiss (sewer, moving away...)"

Levid understood that the man was leaving Hogwarts Castle through the sewers...

This person really doesn't know any secret passages.

If Levid wanted to sneak out of the castle, he would never go through the sewers.
