Chapter 1486 Special Horcruxes and Memories

The vicious incident caused by the opening of the secret room completely changed the fate of the three people.

The first was Moaning Myrtle, who died in that incident. The second is Hagrid. He was wronged because of this, lost his eligibility to go to Hogwarts, and was imprisoned in Azkaban. Then his wand was broken, and his father died because of being too sad. The fate of the family has undergone earth-shaking changes.

Finally, the mastermind of the event, Tom Riddle.

Strictly speaking, Voldemort's first self-produced Horcrux "Riddle's Diary" was also born at that time.

But in reality, Voldemort's fall predates that event, on the night he went to find his uncle.

If what the fifteen-year-old Riddle said last time is true, then his and Gunter's ring should be Voldemort's first Horcrux, a Horcrux that appeared by accident, after that, in his soul The good part was stripped from the main soul, and Voldemort went farther and farther on the evil road, and he became less and less scruples.

Therefore, the opening of the Chamber of Secrets more than 50 years ago was a landmark event. In that incident, Riddle took the initiative to make the first Horcrux "Riddle's Diary" in his life, which marked that he had decided to make himself remembered by the wizarding world as Voldemort.

"I later investigated many people and asked them about Riddle's school. Those who were willing to recall to me told me that Riddle was fascinated by his origin." Dumbledore said, "Of course this is understandable, he Having grown up in an orphanage, it's natural to wonder how he got there. I've spoken to Evan before, and it appears he's searched for the old man in the prize room, in the prefect's list in the old school records, and even in the history books of magic. Tom Riddle, but found nothing, and finally he was forced to admit that his father never went to Hogwarts. I believe that's when he dropped the name, changed to Voldemort's, and started investigating the formerly despised His mother's family history. We all know that he once thought that woman could not be a wizard since she had succumbed to death, the shameful weakness of humanity."

"So, the only clue he had was the name 'Marvolo', which he had learned from the orphanage administrators to be his maternal grandfather's name. After some painstaking research among old books and wizarding families, he finally found the The remaining branch of the Raitlin family. In the summer when he was fifteen, he left the orphanage he would go back to every year to look for his relatives in the Gaunt family." Dumbledore paused for a while, then continued, "What happened later is very clear Now, Riddle found his uncle and his father, grandparents that summer, but he didn't have the joy of being reunited with his loved ones, he did something terrible to them, and left a Horcrux, a A Horcrux that he didn't expect... well, Harry, I want you to see these things more impressively than to listen to me."

As he spoke, he produced a small crystal vial filled with swirling, pearly memories.

Dumbledore poured the memories into the Pensieve, and he motioned for Ivan and Harry to stand up.

They approached the stone basin one by one, bent down obediently, and immersed their faces in memories.

A few seconds later, Ivan returned to the familiar dark environment. He fell from a high altitude and landed on a dirty stone floor.

This is the Gaunt's hut, which is what Morfin looked like when he came back from Azkaban.

The surrounding environment was unspeakably filthy, the ceiling was covered with thick cobwebs, the ground was dark, there were moldy food and a pile of rusted pots on the table, and the only light came from the rickety stick at Morfin's feet. His hair and beard had grown to cover his eyes and mouth, and he sat quietly in the dark.

Until a heavy knock on the door woke him up, and a pale and handsome boy appeared at the door.

The next conversation, Ivan heard it once before.

Morfin, who was already insane, thought Voldemort was old Tom Riddle. The brief communication let Voldemort know that his father had abandoned him and his mother and returned to the Riddle Mansion. Also, let him see Mo The ring on Fern's hand, the heirloom of the Gaunt family, the ring left by Slytherin.

Of course, he didn't recognize the resurrection stone on the ring...

In a burst of cursing, everything fell into darkness, and the three returned to reality.

"That's all?" Harry asked quickly, "Why did it go dark all of a sudden, and what happened after that?"

"Morfin can't remember what happened after that," said Dumbledore, and took out another glass bottle of memory. "When he woke up the next morning, he was lying on the ground alone, and Marvolo's ring was gone." .Meanwhile, in Little Hangleton, a maid ran screaming and running through the high street, saying that there were three dead bodies in the drawing room of the great house: old Tom Riddle and his parents, all dead."

"The Muggle authorities are at a loss. As far as I know, they still don't know how the Riddles died, because the Avada Kedavra usually leaves no scars. The only exception is sitting in front of me." Dumbledore nodded towards Harry's scar, and continued, "But the Ministry of Magic immediately knew that it was the murder of wizards, and they also knew that a person who always hated Muggles lived opposite the Riddle house, and that this person once Served in jail for assaulting one of the victims in this case."

"So the Ministry of Magic found Morfin, there was no interrogation, no Veritaserum or Legilimency, he immediately confessed, provided details that only the murderer knew, and said he was proud of killing those Muggles, saying He had been waiting for this opportunity for years. The wand he handed over was instantly proven to be the murder weapon for the Riddles, and he made no resistance and was taken into Azkaban. The only thing that bothered him was his father's The ring is gone. 'He will kill me.' He repeated to his captors, 'I lost his ring and he will kill me.' That seemed to be all he said next. He was in Azkaban lived out the rest of his life, mourning the loss of the last of his family heirlooms, and was finally buried next to the prison, along with the other poor souls who died in Azkaban."

"Did Old Demon steal Morfin's wand and kill someone?" Harry asked. "What happened that night?"

"It's obvious. Voldemort killed his father, modified his uncle's memory, and walked away with the ring." Ivan replied for Dumbledore, "This is what happened that night , but in fact it is far more than that, there are many more, Riddle made the first Horcrux that night."

"Horcrux, that special Horcrux you just mentioned?!" Harry repeated in a low voice, suddenly thought of something, and looked at the ring on Dumbledore's right hand in shock, "That ring...Professor, Is it this one?"

"Yes, Ivan and I found this ring in the ruins of the Gunter family hut before. I have to admit that it is a very special magic item, a special Horcrux, and it is not just a soul beast. It’s as simple as a device, and it has other important uses.” Dumbledore said, “Okay, we’d better hurry up, there are three memories waiting for us. Before seeing how Ivan and I found it, I think Let you see another memory, which has a lot to do with our next plan..."
