I swung a sword at Hogwarts

Ginny's face was full of tension and Percy kept comforting her.

When they arrived, Ginny trembled a little when she saw John. Percy explained, "Sorry, she's just a little scared. You know, the monster in the secret room."

"I know."

John stared at Ginny, he could see the fear in her expression.

This was not an act. At least it was impossible for Ginny to cast a crushing spell on her back.

John stared at her and asked softly, "Ginny, you did this, didn't you?"

Ginny shuddered, tears streaming down her eyes, and nodded.

"What?" Percy asked confused.

Ginny choked up and said, "I don't know why. I was scared. I thought he influenced me, so I threw him away."

John was suddenly inspired and asked, "Who is he?"

Ginny burst into tears. She had been under too much pressure recently, and she felt as if she had released a monster.

"Riddle, a diary."

Percy couldn't believe what Ginny said. He looked at John, desperate for an answer. "John, tell me what happened!"

John groaned, "I originally thought Ginny was chosen as the heir of Slytherin, but now it seems that it might be the diary."

Riddle.

Tom Riddle.

Voldemort's last name.

When John heard the name, he knew it was related to Voldemort.

John, with a serious look on his face, asked, "Where did you throw the diary?"

He needed to get the diary before someone else picked it up.

Chapter 76: The Missing Diary and the Duel Club

Three hurried figures shuttled through Hogwarts Castle.

This is a strange combination, one Slytherin, two Gryffindors, and one of them is a Gryffindor prefect.

They walked all the way to the girls' bathroom on the second floor, pushed open the door, and walked in.

"Where!"

Percy was really angry this time. His sister almost became the heir of Slytherin.

He grabbed Ginny's shoulders so hard that she couldn't help but let out a low cry.

"Sorry, Ginny, come on, tell us where that thing is?" Percy apologized quickly, realizing that he had reacted too strongly.

Ginny slowly extended her hand and pointed to a sink.

John and Percy looked at each other, and they walked over to see that it was empty.

"Something is missing?" John frowned.

Percy was anxious and irritated. He quickly turned to Ginny and said loudly, "Are you sure you didn't remember it wrong?"

"I, I remember it was right here."

Ginny was so scared that tears started flowing again, and Percy punched the mirror angrily.

"Percy, stop!"

John stopped him from doing this, and he shouted solemnly, "Myrtle, are you there?"

"Of course I am."

Myrtle flew out of the broken toilet.

John breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Apart from us, is there anyone else coming?"

"The others? Three Gryffindors."

The translucent body flew past, and Myrtle giggled.

"It was Ron and the others. They took the diary?"

Percy, who had caught three little ones in the girls' bathroom, immediately thought of them and said with a straight face, "I'll go find them."

"Wait Percy, don't make any noise."

John stopped him, shook his head and said, "The diary is missing now. We should not alert the enemy. I need you to use your position to search the Gryffindor Common Room."

They were close to the truth. John held down the excited Percy and said word by word, "Don't tell anyone until you find that person. This is not just because of Ginny."

"Okay, I'll help."

Percy was also someone who could get twelve certificates. He was not lacking in wisdom, but he was too rigid.

If outsiders knew about Ginny's affairs, it would not only affect herself, but also the Weasley family.

In serious cases, they may even be sent to Azkaban.

Although Percy was strict and rigid in his work, he would not send his sister to Azkaban.

They tacitly kept the matter a secret, and Ginny was comforted and taken back.

During this period, in order to make sure that Ginny was not lying and to protect her from being controlled for the second time, John gave Ginny a Whomping Willow amulet.

"Wear it well and never take it off at any time."

John gave a serious instruction, and Ginny looked pale and nodded quickly.

Send Ginny away.

...

The next day, Percy found John.

He personally sent Ginny back to Gryffindor Tower yesterday. The Weasley twins saw this and came over to gossip.

Until Percy got angry and drove his two younger brothers away, and repeatedly told them to take good care of Ginny and not let her leave alone.

This made the Weasley twins suspicious, but they were also frightened by Percy's tone.

"George and Fred must think I'm crazy."

Percy sighed, he also felt that he had been a little too harsh on his brothers yesterday.

John looked at Percy sympathetically, the Weasley twins were not easy guys to deal with, it was no wonder that Percy had a headache having these two younger brothers.

"After we find the diary, we can put an end to this. Gryffindor is in your hands. Please talk to Penelope Clearwater as well. She is your girlfriend after all."

John said this with a teasing tone.

"H-how do you know?"

Percy stammered, as if he had been discovered in a secret.

"I just happened to know that you were dating Penelope Clearwater while on patrol." John said with a half-smile.

This made Percy call Merlin's beard, this monster, what could he possibly hide from him.

Percy didn't know that John had the Marauder's Map, and when he was stalking the heir, he saw Percy hanging out with the Ravenclaw prefect Penelope Clearwater every now and then.

If he didn't know this, John would have just torn up the live map.

With a wave of his hand, John gave Percy a mysterious look and left.

December is here.

Before Christmas, Professor McGonagall collected the detention lists as usual.

John had originally planned to go back this Christmas, but now that the matter in the secret room has not been resolved, he is not going back.

Have Basil send a letter to Mrs. Wick with two wizard cards.

Ever since dad Watson Wake learned about wizard cards while eating chocolate frogs, he has fallen in love with these cards with animated portraits.

John was also forced to collect some. He thought about exchanging some with Ron, but unfortunately his father was obsessed with collecting them himself.

Because of the devilish training, Neville's fat face has become a little pointier.

Malfoy took the initiative to find John and wanted John to teach him.

After all, after a semester, everyone could see that John was the real teacher of Defense Against the Dark Arts.

To this end, John outlined a series of training plans for Malfoy, one of which was to go to the Shrieking Shack like Neville to train his courage.

To be honest, Malfoy is not much braver than Neville.

During the Potions class, some wicked guy threw a firework into the crucible, and the explosion caused the whole class to become an accident.

When the swelling potion was about to fly in front of him, John subconsciously raised his hand, and the potion was bounced off by the invisible barrier and flew out.

He glanced at Crabbe, who was gloating when he turned around and was splashed, and pretended nothing had happened.

Professor Snape was really worried. John noticed that the only people who were not affected were Harry and himself.

And no one knew where Hermione had gone. He narrowed his eyes and smelled a conspiracy.

"John Wick, you are responsible for making the anti-swelling agent."

John was an innocent victim. There was not enough anti-swelling agent, so John was temporarily pulled in to serve as a backup.

Of course, extra points.

John did not give up on finding the heir. Although he did not alert the enemy, the prefects of the four colleges all got involved.

He didn't call too many people, and when they heard that it was about the heir, the class leaders actively cooperated.

As a result, many people's dormitories were ransacked, causing students from various colleges to suspect that a thief had broken into Hogwarts.

Percy focused his search on his brother, fearing that the Weasley twins might be keeping a diary for fun.

It's a pity that there's nothing else except a bunch of prank props.

Ron didn't let it go either. He searched it several times and threw the lazy rat aside.

A week passed.

John thought everything would be fine until Christmas, but he was wrong.

There was an extra piece of parchment on the notice board; Lockhart was causing trouble again.

"So... you didn't count?"

John looked at Lockhart who was pleading with him and told him not to cause trouble and to set up a dueling club.

It would be fine if you set up a duel club, but you even had the nerve to ask me for support.

John's face was dark. Lockhart shrank his neck and smiled awkwardly: "John, I know you have a way, just like this."

He took out his amulet and ring. He had experienced the benefits of these things in a class, so he had evil thoughts.

How could the great Lockhart not be in the spotlight?

John glanced at him and said calmly, "Everything has a price, Gilderoy."

It wasn't Professor Lockhart, it was Gilderoy.

Lockhart also understood what John meant. With a struggle on his face, he finally bowed slightly and said through gritted teeth: "I hope Gilderoy Lockhart can be your friend."

"Well, I won't turn down a friend's request."

John raised his chin slightly. Lockhart now belonged to his own network.

He was never stingy in cultivating his connections, and took out two spell rings and two amulets from his handbag.

Inside the amulet was the Iron Armor Charm, and the heals of the spells were different, except for the Disarming Charm and the Petrification Charm, and the other difference was that they were no longer one-time use, but could be used three times in a row.

This was the result of John's upgraded alchemy skills, and this alone was enough to make Johnny Silverhand irreplaceable among the Aurors.

Lockhart was overjoyed.

At 8pm, the auditorium performed on the Crescent Stage designed by Lockhart himself.

John didn't expect that Lockhart would dare to find an assistant, and this assistant was Professor Snape.
