Chapter 1091

…

"So, Voldemort killed Tom Riddle himself?"

"Oh, to be precise, everyone including his grandparents." Dumbledore said with a frown, looking extremely disappointed with Voldemort's behavior.

"Everyone? What about Morfin?"

"His wand was stolen." Dumbledore said, "I think it's like this. If Morfin wanted to kill the Riddle family, he didn't need to wait so long. Although he didn't want to admit it, roughly I can still understand a little bit about the process.”

"Know something, Professor, so it's Riddle..."

"Oh, he stole Morfin's wand, used that wand to kill the Riddle family, and then implanted a memory into Morfin. This was not a difficult task for him. Morfin confessed to this, He voluntarily admitted that he killed the Riddle family with his wand, and then stayed in Azkaban until his death..."

"Where is the ring? Voldemort took it away?"

"I think so. Those are trophies, trophies that completely destroyed two families." Dumbledore said, standing up.

"I have to admit that Tom's plan was perfect, and he completely deceived everyone. At least I didn't think so at the time. People in the Gaunt family are not normal. This is something that the Ministry of Magic has It was filed in order to maintain the purity of the bloodline..."

"So the Ministry of Magic believes that it was Morfin who did it?"

"No one would doubt Tom, Tom at that time, and that was what happened after Tom left Little Hangleton. The Riddle family died. When Morfin was captured by the Ministry of Magic, Morfin also said "Every detail of the killing of the Riddle family was revealed, and no one would believe it."

Fan Lin couldn't help but feel a little angry, but what followed was a coldness that spread throughout his body.

What Riddle did... really challenged Fanlin's cognitive limits.

Think about it, a fifteen-year-old boy designed to kill his own Muggle family, and then blamed all the crimes on his own uncle, who was also the Gaunt family, the only pure-blood successor to Slytherin. By.

This series of actions completely deceived everyone, including the Ministry of Magic, and no one discovered that this was done by Tom Riddle.

Ask yourself, if you put him in Tom Riddle's position, you won't even have the courage to take action. After all, the Riddle family is innocent, and Morfin has not done anything to feel sorry for him.

Perhaps Fan Lin has the potential to become a powerful dark wizard, but for him to become a figure like the Dark Lord, Fan Lin absolutely cannot do it. In terms of simply being insane, even the first generation of the Dark Lord Grindelwald is also far less evil than Tom.

Yes, it is evil.

Fanlin couldn't understand why Tom would do this, kill his relatives...kill his relatives to prove it?

Fortunately, Voldemort does not have a sister...

"What about Morfin? He didn't doubt his memory?" Fan Lin asked with some confusion. There will always be flaws in memories that do not belong to him. As a wizard, from the memory, Morfin His ability is not weak, but...

"No, on the contrary, Morfin is proud of this. He has wanted to do this for a long time. In his eyes, the Riddle family should have been destroyed long ago. This is the source of everything."

"so he……"

"Oh, he seemed very happy. In fact, many people attended that hearing, including Moody, and Morfin seemed very excited."

"He is a poor man, but I can't find anything to pity him for, Professor." Fan Lin shook his head. Facts have proved that consanguineous marriage...

"What about the people from the Ministry of Magic? Didn't they monitor Morfin? After he came out of Azkaban..."

"Who would investigate a case that has been determined? Throwing Morfin into Azkaban is the most correct choice. What's more, it's not uncommon for Morfin to attack Muggles like this." Dumbledore shook his head. "I have to admit that Tom chose the most suitable cover. Morfin had enough ability and reason to attack and kill the Riddle family. If it was him who did it, the Ministry of Magic would not have the slightest suspicion."

"So, where is the ring?"

"I didn't bring it with me during the trial, but I'm more inclined to think that Tom had already taken the ring away before the Ministry of Magic made the arrest."

"Terrible enemy, Professor Dumbledore." Rutherford said, "In fact, this is one of the few perfect plans I have seen in all my years. Most importantly, it was made by a In the hands of a fifteen-year-old boy, I have to admit that if possible, I would not choose such a person as my enemy."

"This is not your choice, Mr. Cappadocia." Dumbledore said helplessly, "In fact, this is all my fault. If..."

"There are no ifs, professor. No one can change the past, right? What's more important right now is the Horcrux."

"Oh, yes, a Horcrux." Rutherford said, "So, that ring is also one of the Horcruxes? But where is he? The house of the Gaunt family?"

"I think so. Besides, it's not just a ring."

"It's not just a ring, you mean..."

"Oh, this comes from a story, Mr. Rutherford. If you often read "The Tales of Beedle the Bard", I think you should be able to guess what I want to say."

"Resurrection Stone...right, Professor..." Vanlin tried to say.

"Oh, it seems someone knows this story, doesn't it?" Dumbledore smiled.

"What is that?" Rutherford asked puzzled.

"The story about the three Deathly Hallows..." Vanlin shook his head, and then told the story about the Deathly Hallows in his memory.

Once upon a time, there were three brothers who were traveling on a secluded goat path, and it was almost dusk. As they walked, they came to a river. The water was too deep to wade through, and it was too dangerous to swim across.

However, the three brothers were proficient in magic. With a wave of their wands, a bridge appeared on the dangerous water. When they reached the middle of the bridge, a hooded figure blocked their way.

Death spoke to them. Death was angry because he had lost three new sacrifices - because travelers usually drowned in this river. But Death was cunning. He pretended to congratulate the three brothers on their magic, saying that they had escaped Death by their cleverness, and each of them could get a reward.

The eldest, a man of war, wanted the most powerful wand in the world: a wand that would always win a duel, a wand worthy of a wizard who had conquered Death! Death went to an elder tree on the shore, made a wand out of an overhanging branch, and gave it to the eldest.

The second, a man of pride, decided to continue humiliating Death and wanted the power to bring the dead back to life. Death picked up a stone from the shore and gave it to the second, telling him that the stone had the power to bring the dead back to life.

Then Death asked the youngest, the third, what he wanted.

The third was the most humble and the smartest, and he didn't believe in Death. So he asked for something that would keep him from being found wherever he went. Reluctantly, Death gave him his invisibility cloak.

Then Death stood aside and let the three brothers continue on their way, talking about their wonderful experience and admiring Death's gift.

Later, the three brothers separated and headed for their respective destinations.

The eldest walked for more than a week. Arriving at a remote mountain village, he quarreled with a wizard. Naturally, he would win the duel with the Elder Wand made of elder wood. After his opponent fell dead, he continued on his way and walked into a tavern, boasting loudly about how the powerful wand he had obtained from the hands of the god of death was invincible.

That night, after the eldest brother got drunk, another wizard crept to his bedside, stole the wand, and cut his throat.

In this way, the god of death took the eldest brother's life.

Meanwhile, the second brother returned to his home where he lived alone, took out the stone that could bring the dead back to life, and turned it in his hand three times. To his surprise, the girl he wanted to marry but who unfortunately died young immediately appeared in front of him.

But she was sad and indifferent, and there seemed to be a veil between them. Although she returned to the world, she did not really belong here, and she was in pain. In the end, the second brother was tortured mad by hopeless desire and committed suicide in order to be with her.

In this way, the god of death took the life of the second son.

However, the god of death searched for the third son for many years but could not find him. The third son lived to be very old before finally taking off the invisible cloak and handing it to his son. Then he greeted the god of death like an old friend and happily left the world with him as an equal.

"These are the three Deathly Hallows, the hand of the God of Death, the elder wand, the resurrection stone and the invisibility cloak, and I have had the honor of seeing one of them." Fan Lin hesitated, "It's in my friend's hand, a cloak as thin as a veil."

"Oh, yes..." Dumbledore said with some surprise, "If I'm not mistaken, the gem on the ring is the resurrection stone, but Tom is very impatient, so he naturally won't read such stories."

"There is such a thing?" Rutherford felt a little absurd, "So, what kind of document is that story collection?"

"Oh no, it's a children's book." Fan Lin said, "But the things described in it, at least the three Deathly Hallows are real."

"But, professor, I don't understand how Voldemort made the resurrection stone into a Horcrux."

"Maybe it's just the ring..." Dumbledore said, "But no matter what, we have to get it, don't we."

"Incredible..." Rutherford shook his head secretly, "So, our purpose today..."

"Of course, to destroy it." Fan Lin shook his head.

Fan Lin vaguely remembered that it was this ring that had caused Dumbledore a lot of trouble. Voldemort left a very terrible curse on it, and it was this curse that forced Dumbledore to change his plan.

Although with the help of Snape, Dumbledore successfully forced the curse into his hand and sealed it, but this also greatly shortened Dumbledore's life.

Fan Lin never doubted that Dumbledore would not be able to find the ring, but the curse...

With Dumbledore's ability, he could even survive the locket in the cave, but he fell into this curse.

The curse left by the fifteen-year-old Tom Riddle ended up taking Dumbledore's life?

No matter how he thought about it, Fan Lin didn't think this was a very reliable thing.

So, it was the Resurrection Stone that did it?

Fanlin remembered that the Resurrection Stone itself is a stone that can bring people back to life. However, according to the story, people resurrected by the Resurrection Stone will only have a pessimistic mentality and can mentally torture people crazy because they cannot get the real truth. , the person who wants to be resurrected.

Therefore, the Resurrection Stone can also be regarded as one of the weapons. Putting the Resurrection Stone in the enemy's hands is equivalent to giving the enemy a knife to commit suicide.

So, Dumbledore must have seen something because of the Resurrection Stone, and then was invaded by Voldemort's curse without any resistance?

After much deliberation, Fanlin could only come to this conclusion.

Nothing good comes from anything that has anything to do with death.

"When should we set off?" Fan Lin thought everything through and naturally felt relieved. He planned to follow Dumbledore to destroy the ring.

"Oh, anytime." Dumbledore said, "That's exactly what I came for."

"Wait a minute, Professor Dumbledore, how can you be sure..." Rutherford said cautiously.

"The ring is hidden in the old house of the Gaunt family?" Dumbledore said with a smile, "Oh, believe me, Mr. Cappadocia, there is no doubt that that place has special meaning to Tom. It can be said that that’s where everything started for him, and I also tend to think that was the first Horcrux he made.”

"The first Horcrux?"

"Oh, maybe my old friend will give the answer. However, I still know something about Tom. I am self-conscious and cautious. In fact, Tom was very good when he was at Hogwarts, but he also failed. Everyone’s surprise.”

"You mean becoming Voldemort?"

"Oh, yes, he has never relaxed his guard against me." Dumbledore said, "Although I was not confident about him at the time, in fact, he was still one of my outstanding students. I didn't make too many guesses, and as for the control over Tom's heart... no one could have imagined that Tom's heart would be twisted into the way it is now. The fear of death and the desire for power, combined with everything else, were enough to completely turn Tom away. The most ironic thing is that all of this is going on quietly under my eyes, and I am not aware of it at all. "

"You mean Death Eaters?"

"Oh, yes, many Death Eaters became Tom's followers during the Hogwarts period. This is also the precursor of evil, but as a professor of Hogwarts, I did not discover it in time..."

Fanlin felt a little ironic...

Voldemort gathered a powerful team under Dumbledore's nose, and his opponent was just Umbridge. Then he created a D.A and was discovered by Umbridge.

No matter which aspect, whether it is him or Harry, they are not even a little bit worse than Voldemort back then.

In fact, had it not been for the fact that his resources were more than a fraction richer than Voldemort's at that time, even his strength would have been far beyond what Fan Lin could catch up with.

Is this a gap?

Not long after, Fox's figure appeared on Dumbledore's shoulder with the light of fire. To be on the safe side, using the Sword of Gryffindor was naturally the safest way to solve the problem. (To be continued)
