Hogwarts: I, Tom, am really not Voldemort!

"Basilisk?"

"Of course, no problem."

Tom said, taking the basilisk-transformed bracelet and tossing it to Dumbledore.

Dumbledore took the bracelet, examined it carefully for a while, then took out the Elder Wand and pointed it around, and finally his face became very ugly.

After letting Tom take responsibility for controlling the basilisk, Dumbledore transformed the bracelet back into a basilisk, and then turned the basilisk back into a bracelet.

The basilisk, who thought he would suffer again, suddenly found that it didn't seem so uncomfortable, and it was quite comfortable.

"So that's how it can be solved..."

While Dumbledore was showing off his skills, Tom had already transformed into Uchiha Tom, his eyes almost turning into Sharingan, frantically copying Dumbledore's techniques.

After everything was done, Dumbledore returned the bracelet to Tom, sighed, and discussed with Tom.

"Tom, in the future, when you're outside, could you not mention to others that I am your Transfiguration teacher?"

"?"

Tom felt that Dumbledore's brain probably had a major problem. What he said was really inexplicable, and he immediately corrected him.

"Sorry, Professor, I don't think you've ever taught me Transfiguration. My Transfiguration teacher is Professor McGonagall."

Dumbledore showed a look of a promising student.

After Tom accompanied Dumbledore on a tour of the Chamber of Secrets and found nothing of value besides the basilisk, he prepared to return the same way.

At this time, Tom also raised his question to Dumbledore: "Professor, what are you going to do with Voldemort and Quirrell? Are you still going to let them run wild? It's almost the end of the term."

Dumbledore smiled when he heard this, looking like he had everything under control: "Don't worry, Voldemort and Quirrell will act soon, the net is about to be closed."

In the days that followed, Tom felt like he had been fooled by Dumbledore.

Voldemort was nowhere to be found, let alone acting.

Draco, Harry, and Ron's detention was still a trip to the Forbidden Forest, but this time they didn't even see Voldemort's shadow.

And Quirrell didn't even go to class anymore. Now the entire Hogwarts Defense Against the Dark Arts class is Snape's part-time job.

Regarding this, Tom specifically went to Professor McGonagall and expressed his disdain for Quirrell's salary-stealing behavior. At the same time, he also hinted that if he could get Quirrell's salary, he wouldn't mind sharing some of Snape's burden and reluctantly participating in teaching activities.

Given Tom's previous bad example, his job application was rejected by Professor McGonagall on the spot.

Tom, who failed to find a job, could only put his energy back into the final exams. Tom Riddle will definitely not lose to Hermione Granger.

When the last History of Magic exam came to an end, Tom breathed a sigh of relief. This time, the first place in the grade should be stable.

At this time, Harry also had information to send over.

He had already learned from Hagrid that someone had deliberately sold him a dragon egg, and tricked him into revealing the method of passing Fluffy.

And today, Harry discovered that Snape's foot seemed to have been injured by Fluffy, and maybe the person who went to steal the Philosopher's Stone was about to make a move, so he sent a message to gather people to stop him.

The members of the Stargazer Club, who received Harry's message, were thinking about how to celebrate after the exam. This was a perfect opportunity for activities to be delivered to their door, so they enthusiastically signed up to participate.

Except for Cassandra, Hermione, Draco, and a few others, no one had even thought about the seriousness of the situation.

And Cassandra and Draco felt that since Tom was backing them up, they didn't bother to spoil the fun by reminding them.

So, the mission to protect the Philosopher's Stone turned into a mighty club outing, along with Ron.

At this time, in addition to receiving Harry's message, Fawkes also brought Dumbledore's message, which only had a short sentence: "The net can be closed."

So Tom put on an Illusion Charm and followed behind the group of young wizards who had gathered and set off, watching their obstacle course game as a spectator.

After the trio's obstacle course game turned into a collective outing, Tom felt that the difficulty dropped sharply.

The first level, the three-headed dog Fluffy, had already been hypnotized by Voldemort's flute and was fast asleep. All the little wizards had to do was tiptoe to open the trapdoor and then gently jump down.

The only twist was that Fluffy woke up halfway through, his three dog heads baring their teeth, drooling, looking like he wanted to bite someone.

But the crowd, who had long been secretly wanting to meet Fluffy, had already prepared. A large portion of dog biscuits was offered, and then the band that had already set up at the entrance played "Good Day."

As for why they played "Good Day", please invite Tom Riddle to speak.

The four Hufflepuffs, Neville, Ernie, Hannah, and Justin, said that this was a freebie.

Especially since Professor Sprout had personally taken them to take care of the Devil's Snare this year, and gave a detailed explanation along the way.

If they were unable to pass after being told the exam answers, they could probably apply to Professor Sprout to transfer schools after they got out.

"Relax, relax, don't move around."

"Yes, don't struggle, relax."

Accustomed to Tom's inhuman training (persecution), everyone was very calm. Under the command of the four Hufflepuffs, everyone passed quickly.

Until the last person fell, the Incendio spell was regretfully never used.

Tom considered whether he should ask Professor Sprout for a banner afterward to commend him for preserving the Devil's Snare.

The third level, Professor Flitwick personally designed.

Harry quickly found the key with a missing wing in the swarm of flying keys, grabbed his broom and rushed forward.

At the same time, Draco also found the key, and also grabbed his broom and rushed out.

At this moment, the future Seekers of Gryffindor and Slytherin reached cooperation for the first time.

"Draco, on the right."

"Harry, flank him."

"Quick, quick, quick, the key is on your left."

"Got it."

With the cooperation of the two, the key was quickly clenched in Harry's hand.

The fourth level, it was finally Ron's highlight moment, Professor McGonagall's Wizard's Chess.

Ron still chose the 'Knight' position, while Harry and Neville respectively replaced the 'Bishop' and 'Castle' positions.

In Ron's rampage, and finally showing Gryffindor's courage, preparing to sacrifice himself to be eaten by the white 'Queen' in order to win the chess game.

"Confringo!"

"Confringo!"

"Confringo!"

......

A large wave of Blasting Curses smashed towards the white chess pieces.

The white chess pieces were physically destroyed, and the black chess pieces naturally won. Ron, who had already prepared for psychological sacrifice, turned his head in a daze.

Only to see Cassandra standing there proudly as the leader: "Playing chess is indeed a waste of time, it's faster to just physically destroy it."

This, is very Gryffindor.

The fifth level, the troll.

When they walked into the room and saw the troll who had been 'eaten' and was lying peacefully on the ground, the dead memories resurfaced in the minds of the little wizards.

When passing by the troll's corpse, no one knew who took the lead, everyone lined up to express their deep condolences to it, and silently added a 'devouring' curse to its corpse as a sacrifice.

This show of operation made the corners of Tom's mouth twitch. At this moment, he felt so 'sinful'.

And the last level of logical reasoning was not difficult for the Ravenclaws who played question-and-answer games with the Eagle ring in the common room every day.

Hermione, as the smartest witch in the academy, naturally stepped forward to solve the puzzle.

"Harry, we'll accompany you here. The last part of the road is up to you. Be careful in everything. If you can't do it, run away first."

After handing a portion of the potion to Harry, Hermione instructed him with concern.

Harry nodded, took the potion and drank it all, and walked through the flames alone.

And in the final room, someone was already waiting for Harry.
