Hogwarts Diary: Snape Goes Crazy

Chapter 484 Tampering With Memory

The screen suddenly went black.

Dumbledore led them back to the office.

"Why is it suddenly gone?"

Harry asked quickly.

Dumbledore shook his head.

"Morfin can't remember the rest of the memory at all. I think it was Voldemort who cast a coma spell on him. After that, he took Morfin's wand to Riddle Manor.

By the way, he also took away the ring left by Marvolo from Morfin's hand.

We don’t know what Voldemort asked or said there. In short, the next day, the maid of Riddle Manor saw three corpses.

The Muggle authorities were at their wits' end, and as far as I know, the case remains unsolved even now.

The wizard knew very well that this was done by a wizard. They also learned that a wizard lived here, and that this Morfin had harmed Muggles in the past.

They captured Morfin, and without using Veritaserum or Legilimency, Morfin confessed to killing the Riddles. He showed no remorse and said they deserved it.

The only thing that made him uneasy was that he lost the last treasure of their family. This incident became the last pain in his life. "

Dumbledore finished.

Harry gritted his teeth angrily.

"Voldemort wasn't an adult at that time, right? Why couldn't the Ministry of Magic pinpoint him as the one who did it?"

Dumbledore laughed.

"There is no way. The Ministry of Magic can only detect magic but not the caster. You suffered an unreasonable disaster when you were in second grade.

Harry got even angrier.

"In other words, wizarding families can only rely on their parents to supervise whether they use magic?"

Dumbledore nodded again.

"This is so backward, they should change it, and watch Voldemort!

Even if Morfin deserves to die, it is definitely not the reason why he was framed, and he started killing people in the sixth grade, so I think he should have been arrested at that time!"

Harry was indignant.

Dumbledore looked at him helplessly.

This kid must have forgotten that he almost killed Barty Crouch when he was in fourth grade.

However, he didn't want to mention this matter, but nodded in agreement, and then asked Vesey and Harry to look over.

"It's too late. Let's hurry up and look at this memory. I don't want to delay your rest.

Dumbledore said with a smile as he poured the memory into the Pensieve.

They entered memory again.

This time it's Slughorn's memory, which has obviously been cut and altered.

Dumbledore took them for a while and then came out.

"There's something wrong with this memory."

Vesey brought it up directly.

Dumbledore nodded approvingly.

"It's like this, this memory is very problematic, Horace changed it.

I can directly use Legilimency on him, or I can force him to hand it over, but as a friend, I obviously can't do this kind of thing.

So today's homework is that you two have to find a way to ask Slughorn for real memories. This matter is very important, and I hope you will pay attention to it.

How important it is specifically, we won’t know until we finish reading Memory... Good night, kids, go back to sleep!"

The next day, Harry told Hermione and Ronald what happened that night.

"I think it's very simple. When you two come to Slughorn, maybe just mention it and Slughorn should give it to you. He likes you so much.

Ronald said with a smile.

But Hermione didn't think so.

"Don't be like this. If you two do this, you will alert the enemy. Since Principal Dumbledore won't come, you definitely can't come out openly.

Hermione said warningly, and Vesey nodded in obedience.

"Indeed, let's make plans before going."

She knew that if she wanted Slughorn to retrieve his memory, she would have to get him drunk and tell him about Lily while drunk. This might be possible without the need for Elixirs.

After all, you can't drink Felixir often. Vesey thought it would be more interesting to do some hey things with Felixir.

Of course, if there was really no other way, she would still use the Felixir.

But she thought maybe letting Slughorn drink too much would have the same effect.

It just depends on whether they can have this opportunity.

But the way she looked at Harry, he seemed to naively think that Ronald's method was good and it was feasible to try it.

So during Potions class the next day, Harry kept thinking about how to tell Slughorn about this.

But not long after this idea came up, Slughorn said that he wanted them to learn an antidote, which was not in the book.

Hermione was extremely happy, because there was no such potion in the book, which meant that Harry could not get any help from the Half-Blood Prince.

Harry was extremely nervous. He originally wanted to make a potion. After Slughorn praised him, he talked about the memory. Now it's better. "His reputation as the second genius in potions will probably disappear soon."

Now he could only listen to Vesey's instructions and brew the potion.

But Vesey's instructions were too complicated, and he was always in a hurry. Finally, when he looked at a large pot of stinky liquid, he knew in despair that he would definitely fail.

Seeing that Slughorn had begun to check the potions one by one, Harry turned around anxiously.

Vesey whispered in his ear: "Think about the questions Professor Snape asked you on the first day.

She knew that without her reminding him, Harry would have remembered that Vesey just wanted to be a go-between and help him have someone he was grateful for.

Sure enough, Harry immediately thought of bezoars.

He rushed to Slughorn's cabinet and finally found a bezoar.

If this was Snape's class, he would definitely not dare, but this was Slughorn's class, maybe...

He held the bezoar in the palm of his hand and watched as Slughorn tasted Vesey's potion.

"||Well, Vesey, the antidote you made actually has a fruity flavor. Let me think about it...is it pineapple flavor?"

Slughorn asked excitedly.

Vesey smiled sheepishly.

"The potion is too bitter. I was wondering if I could make some fruity ones. I've always wanted to do this. I tried it in class today."

Slughorn patted her shoulder.

"Son, I think this potion will definitely become popular. Although it won't win the Merlin badge, it will definitely sell out!"

Vesey turned to look at Slughorn.

"I was wondering if I could have you sign a name on my magic potion. You know, having a professor vouch for it will make everyone more trustworthy.

Vesey asked pretending to be worried.

In fact, what Potions Master wouldn't want to give her a name?

As long as she has this need, countless potion masters will beg to give her money, all wanting to add (Denuo Zhao)'s name.

But adding a name to the potion was what Vesey had promised Slughorn.

It didn't matter to her that she could convince Slughorn by just adding a name and giving nothing else.

This is not a precious potion anyway.

Slughorn showed an excited expression as expected.

However, he still said reservedly:

"Of course, kid, I am willing to be your guarantor. In fact, I think there are a lot of people who want to be this guarantor...C"

"But now I just want your guarantee!"

Slughorn's mouth widened.

He was laughing almost the whole time.

Smelling Ronald's mess, he said nothing.

Then he came to Harry.

He was about to praise Harry when he saw a pile of foul-smelling liquid.

"this……………"

Slughorn was about to say something when he saw Harry holding a bezoar under his nose. He stared at it for a full minute before he couldn't help but laugh. .
