Chapter 147 Draco's Confession
“… At the beginning of this school year, I found a black-covered notebook in my luggage.
Because the notebook looked really old, I thought it was my father or mother's diary at first. But when I opened it, it was blank. I was a little disappointed and wanted to throw it away. After all, I am different from Weasley, and I never use second-hand goods!
Oh! I know I'm wrong! I shouldn't say bad things about Weasley! Don't hit me...
OK! Huh! I continued. Just as I was about to throw away the diary, a line of words suddenly appeared on it.
He said... His name is Tom Riddle, and he was a former student of Hogwarts. He said that the glory of Hogwarts has been defiled by those mud-bred students!
He asked me to release the monsters in the secret room to purify the entire Hogwarts! And in return, he would give me strength!
I actually didn't believe it at that time. After all, where would such a good thing happen in the world? But he gave me the reward first!
My magic has become more powerful! My academic performance has also improved! Even my godfather has started to praise me! This is simply amazing!
Then... I believed him, and I began to cooperate with him to launch an attack with the monsters in the secret room...
Please believe me Link! I was completely bewitched by Tom Riddle! I just made a small mistake! Please let me go, I'm almost suffocating!"
In the corridor, Draco, who was in a semi-paralyzed state, was begging.
Link and Harry, who were standing opposite him, bowed their heads and looked meditative.
After a while, Link finally said in a deep voice:
"Where is that diary now?"
"It's gone..."
"Absent?!" Link suddenly raised his voice, "You still want to argue!"
"No! All I said is true!" Draco cried, "Tom Riddle is doing more and more excessively! He... he actually wants me to kill someone! Merlin! How could I do such a thing!"
"But haven't you promised him to help purify Hogwarts?"
Harry asked.
"At that time, I thought that the purification he said was to scare away all the mud-bred students! I really didn't know that he wanted to kill all the mud-bred students!" Draco continued, "I rejected him! Really! I didn't even hesitate at that time! Then...and it disappeared!"
"Do you think we'll believe in the nonsense of believing you?"
It's Harry again.
Now he seems to have entered the role, his voice getting louder and louder, and his tone is gradually becoming harsh.
"I'm not lying! That's what happened the night before yesterday. I was sleeping, but after waking up, I found myself lying in the corridor near Ravenclaw! Then when I went back, I found that the diary was missing!" Draco said, "You can check it. It was Godfather Snape who caught me back! He scolded me for a long time that day!"
Upon hearing this, Judge Harry finally fell silent.
The amount of information about what Draco explained was too large, and he could not tell the truth at all, so he could only tilt his head and look at Link.
But at this moment, Link still looked frowning.
He roughly believed what Draco said.
After all, his description of Tom Riddle's diary is basically consistent with Link's memory, and Tom Riddle's diary does have the ability to directly force the user to seize control of the body and do bad things and make the parties involved lose their memory afterwards.
Moreover, with Link's understanding of Draco.
Draco, this kid, was so arrogant that he pretended to be 13 on his mouth. In reality, he really dared not kill anyone.
That means that there is only one problem left in front of Link now.
Where did that diary of Tom Riddle go?
"Huh! The curse is stopped."
After a long sigh, a light curtain appeared and covered Draco with a swing of Link's wand.
Then Draco's body regained his strength and the wound on his forehead was instantly recovered.
Most importantly, a pool of water stains were spreading from the floor beneath it.
"Uh~ah!"
Draco's mouth made a sound of unknown significance.
Perhaps because of the shameful relationship, Draco reached out to cover his face.
He shook his head with some disgust, Link patted Harry and said:
"Let's go, let's go back."
Harry was staring at the scene with wide eyes, and after being slapped, he realized and followed Link's pace.
At this moment, Draco, who was finally finished, started to cry and muttered to himself again.
"My dad...my dad is..."
"Damn it!"
A ball of white light flashed, and Draco was completely silent.
...
One hour later.
Link, sitting upright on the sofa, was frowning at Dumbledore opposite him.
Just ten minutes ago, Link had already informed Dumbledore about everything Draco said.
When the other party heard this, he just lowered his head and was silent.
Honestly, waiting is really a very troublesome thing, but Link can at least endure it.
What really made Link very irritated is that Dumbledore's Phoenix Fox went crazy!
At this moment, it was entrenching on Link's head, pecking at Link's scalp bit by bit.
Although Fox pecks people without growing up, it doesn’t hurt, but it’s really annoying!
"Tsk!"
With another slight stinging pain from the top of his head, Link could no longer bear it.
He smacked his mouth and reached out to grab Fox.
However, as soon as he reached out his hand, Dumbledore opposite him coughed:
"Link, don't worry about Fox for now. I have important things to tell you."
Upon hearing this, Link could only withdraw his hand carefully and look at Dumbledore.
"Do you know? The secret room was opened in the past and directly led to a death incident."
As Dumbledore's narrative, Harry's face turned pale and his lips trembled, asking:
"Die...death?"
"Well, that's right. The one who died at that time was a girl from Ravenclaw. Link, you should know who it is?"
Dumbledore glanced at Link meaningfully.
Link said as if nothing had happened:

"Myrithide, who was crying, was the victim at that time. She was ridiculed by her classmates for her appearance and hid in the bathroom and cried, but she was attacked. After her death, she became a ghost due to obsession. She was very pitiful, because even if she became a ghost, no one or the ghost liked her."
As soon as Link said this, Harry's eyes when he looked at Link became a little weird.
Because he had heard of the name of the crying Myrtle at the ghosts' death dinner, he also knew that the other party was a ghost staying at home who would almost never come out of the women's bathroom.
Then the question arises.
How could Link be so familiar with the crying Myrtle?
