Chapter 1489 Voldemort Leaving Hogwarts

Ai Wen came to the spirit, the intelligence of the house elf home.

According to the schedule, Riddle should graduate from Hogwarts. In school, due to Dumbledore's close attention, there are many things he dare not do and cannot do, especially after the secret room time, he knows that he has aroused Dumbledore's suspicion again, so he will definitely be more careful, what will not do.

It's conceivable that an adult Voldemort would become unscrupulous once he graduates from Hogwarts.

Because without Dumbledore's monitoring, he didn't have so many restrictions.

"In the memory we are about to see, Riddle has graduated and left Hogwarts." Sure enough, Dumbledore said, "I hope you can understand that as he grows older and stronger, Now the situation before us has become even more blurred and weird. If it is difficult to find evidence about the young Riddle, it is almost impossible to find someone who can remember the adult Voldemort. In fact, I doubt that anyone other than himself , is there a living person who can give us a detailed account of his life after leaving Hogwarts.

"However, I am delighted to have found this memory. It is also a very important memory, as it may have revealed to us another of Voldemort's Horcruxes, as well as information about the home of the house-elves." Take out a small crystal bottle, the color of the memory inside is not that pearly white, but a kind of sticky light yellow, "I hope you are not tired of sneaking into other people's memories, because this memory is different from what you saw before. Except, it came from a very old house-elf, her name was Hotkey."

"Hokey the house elf?" Ai Wen asked.

"Yes, the family she used to serve is the last descendant of Helga Hufflepuff in this world. This kind of inheritance is a bit like Slytherin and the former Gaunt family." Dumbledore said, "This is a very important memory, but before I look at it, I must tell you how Voldemort left Hogwarts."

"Well, you may have guessed that he was promoted to the seventh grade with the best grades in every exam. The students around are thinking about what career they will pursue after graduation, and almost everyone thinks that Tom Riddle will have Amazing achievements, he is a prefect, a top student, and has received special awards from the school. I know several teachers, including Professor Slughorn, who suggested he enter the Ministry of Magic and offered to introduce him, but he would not He declined. The faculty later learned that he had gone to work at Borgin-Bock."

"Borgin-Bock?" Harry froze for a moment. This was something that surprised him again tonight. Dumbledore said a lot about Voldemort's secret past that no one knew, and every one of them was enough to cause an uproar. , even if Harry is mentally prepared, it will take a long time to digest hearing this all at once.

Thinking of this, he looked at Aiwen next to him in admiration. Aiwen's expression basically didn't change much...

"Professor, you mean that Voldemort worked at Borgin-Bock?"

"That's right, Borgin-Bock, that is the black magic shop we are already familiar with." Dumbledore said calmly, "When you enter Hao Qi's memory, you will see what attracts him to that place." It's great, but it wasn't Voldemort's first choice. No one knew it at the time. I was one of the few people who heard the old headmaster talk about it. Voldemort first went to Professor Dippet, my former Hogwarts headmaster, Ask him if he can stay and teach at Hogwarts."

"He wants to stay here?" Harry was even more surprised that Voldemort actually wanted to stay at Hogwarts!

This is simply unbelievable. From the previous description, he thought that Voldemort planned to leave Hogwarts as soon as possible to escape Dumbledore's monitoring!

Ivan also thought about it quickly. There is no doubt that Hogwarts is very attractive to Voldemort.

If it were him, he would choose to stay at Hogwarts as well. Many people think that Aiwen is so strong, why should he stay in Hogwarts to study. In fact, there are still many magical mysteries waiting to be explored and discovered in this ancient magic academy...

"Yes, Voldemort wanted to stay at Hogwarts. I believe he had several reasons, although he didn't tell Professor Dippet any of them." Dumbledore replied, "First of all, the very important one is that Voldemort He has more attachment to the school than to any individual. There is every reason to believe that Hogwarts was his happiest place, the first and only place where he felt like home."

"Second, this castle is a stronghold of ancient magic. There are not many such places in the current wizarding world. Voldemort has undoubtedly discovered more secrets here than most students, but he may feel that there are still many unsolved Mysteries, and many magical treasures to discover."

"Thirdly, as a teacher, he can have a great influence over young wizards. This idea may come from Professor Slughorn, the professor with whom he has the best relationship. Slughorn made him Seeing how much of an impact a teacher can have, I never thought Voldemort was planning to stay at Hogwarts for the rest of his life, I think he saw it as a good place to recruit and build a team for himself."

Recruiting Death Eaters from Hogwarts is more reliable than looking for those outlaws, giants, werewolves, vampires and so on.

"Of course, Voldemort didn't get the job in the end." Dumbledore continued, "Professor Dippet said he was only eighteen years old, which is too young, but he is welcome to apply again in two years. If you want to teach."

"So Professor, what do you think of this matter?"

"Very disturbing." Dumbledore said, "I sincerely suggest that Armando should not hire him. I didn't give the reasons I just said, because Professor Dippet likes Voldemort very much and believes in his honesty, but I don't want Voldemort returning to this school, especially in a position of power."

Dumbledore's reputation was very high at the time, not an ordinary professor. Shortly thereafter, he went to Nurmengard alone, defeated the powerful Grindelwald, ended the chaos caused by the first generation of Dark Lord Grindelwald and the large-scale war in the entire European magic world, and succeeded Hogwart The position of headmaster.

Therefore, his opinion is very important and has largely influenced Professor Dippet's decision.

When he became the headmaster, Voldemort would have no chance to return to Hogwarts.

In other words, the reason why Voldemort did not teach at Hogwarts after graduation was mainly because Dumbledore prevented him.

"Professor, what position did Voldemort want to get? What class did he want to teach?" Harry asked subconsciously.

As soon as he finished speaking, before Dumbledore answered, he thought of the answer.

"Defense Against the Dark Arts was taught by an old professor named Galatea Meles, who has been at Hogwarts for nearly fifty years." Dumbledore said, "Just now In Laghorn's memory, we all saw that Voldemort already knew about the impending retirement of Professor Mellors..."
