I became Voldemort

Chapter 16: Attack on Halloween!

As soon as Cyrus turned the corner, a sharp roar came from a side to his ears: "Stop!"

It's Filch again!

Cyrus's patience with this annoying administrator had almost reached its limit.

But what really gave him a headache was the cat. It probably had a bit of catnivet blood or something. In addition to its very sharp nose, it seemed to be able to see through a little bit of magic.

Cyrus was almost exposed several times because of it. Otherwise, just a squib wouldn't be able to do anything to him.

It is especially dangerous sometimes when you not only meet Filch but also happen to meet Snape who is up late at night.

No wonder Tom had to operate on this cat in the original novel!

"Stop! Don't move! I've found you!" Filch shouted viciously into the air. But in fact, where Cyrus is now standing is behind him. Mrs. Norris sniffed his scent all the way to the outside of the Room of Requirement but found nothing.

After confirming that his phantom spell had not expired, Cyrus left quickly without hesitation.

At this time, he heard Peeves' mocking voice coming from behind: "Poor Felger, he's being fooled around!"

As a result, the two guys started fighting each other.

It was getting closer to Halloween, and Cyrus decided it was almost time.

On the night before Halloween, everything in Hogwarts became completely different from before.

The pumpkin that was nearly as tall as Ginny in Hagrid's field has now grown to the size of a shed!

The insides of these pumpkins were hollowed out, and some were made into scary jack-o-lanterns, while the rest were turned into pumpkin juice and served on the table. There are some bat decorations installed everywhere in the castle. In the past, the ghosts were always the most active at this time, but this time, even Peeves was nowhere to be seen.

This is thanks to Sir Nicholas, who made today the 500th anniversary of his death.

At the dinner party, Percy looked around with a frown on his face. The Geminis and Lee Jordan were sitting together, almost having a quarrel.

"Fred! Where is Ron? Harry and Hermione are also missing." Percy grabbed one of the twins at random and asked immediately.

"Hey! I'm George! What a shame that you're still my brother!" George said angrily with his eyes widened. Because this time he wasn't playing a prank, Percy really had the wrong person!

"Oh! I-I'm sorry..."

"Well, no worries, you want to know where little Ronnie is?"

"Speaking of which, they said, the Ghost party would be so cool!"

The two people immediately put on expressions of surprise and joy mimicking little Ronny. Of course, they were probably more gloating,

"They went to a ghost party, can you imagine? A ghost party! I guess they ate all the rotten pieces of meat!"

"Gathering of ghosts?"

"You don't know, it's the 500th anniversary of Nearly Headless Nico's death. Let me tell you, he really has the idea to commemorate the date of his death!" Fred smiled and shook his head, probably he already thought Nearly Headless Nico was a genius.

Harry had accidentally overheard this information when the twins were discussing about it some time ago while he was talking to Ron and Hermione.

At first, the twins also had the idea of ​​getting involved with the ghosts, but after inquiring about some information, Fred and George gave up.

Wouldn't it be nice to eat hot meals and drink warm pumpkin juice in the hall?

"Why don't you care about your sister? You know Ginny isn't here either!" George glanced at the lower grades and didn't see any conspicuous red hair among the little lions.

"Ginny is not feeling well and will come over later. You should have paid more attention to her. She has had a cold for several weeks!" Percy said sternly.

At this moment, all the teachers and students of Hogwarts were gathered in the hall, even Filch was no exception.

Only his cat, still fulfilling its unsavory duty, wandered the corridors of the castle.

"Meow"

Now, it has smelled a familiar scent.

During this period of time, the owner of this scent had escaped from her too many times, which aroused Mrs. Norris's desire to win.

This animal with catnivet blood has an extraordinary intelligence and has regarded Cyrus as a thorn in her side.

For this reason, it looked for the smell and moved towards the third-floor corridor.

Cyrus controlled Ginny's body and sat on the back of the giant basilisk.

He had been letting the basilisk move around inside the pipe all this time, and now it was time to take it out for a walk. Just in time, the annoying Myrtle also went to the death anniversary party. There's no one here except—

a cat!

Mrs. Norris lowered her head to smell the scent and slowly came to the door of the bathroom.

"Meow"

There was water all over the floor, probably because a pipe was leaking, which made Mrs. Norris a little disgusted. But her competitive spirit still outweighed everything else, and she walked slowly around the corner in the sticky water.

The next moment, two dim lights were reflected in the water!

Mrs. Norris was immediately petrified by the basilisk's eyes before she even had time to react!

"The annoying cat is finally clean." Cyrus jumped off the basilisk's head and picked up the petrified, immobile cat. Its body now felt harder than iron!

He hung Mrs. Norris on the wall and left a line of bloody writing.

In fact, Cyrus used to like cats, but obviously, Mrs. Norris could not be counted among them. The little things that hinder his resurrection, no matter how cute they are, must be eliminated!

At least temporarily cleared.

Then, Cyrus asked the basilisk to return to the secret room and wait for his call at any time, while he slowly returned to the banquet. And returned the body to Ginny.

Ginny, who was in a daze, was not too surprised when she opened her eyes and found herself at the Gryffindor table. Apparently, she had guessed that "Mr. Riddle" had controlled her body just now.

'Mr. Riddle' hasn't celebrated Halloween in fifty years, right?

As she thought about it, it was normal for Cyrus to miss the Halloween party at Hogwarts.

Of course, she is also looking forward to this holiday.

At this moment, looking at the delicious food on the table, she couldn't help it anymore and immediately started eating.

Colin opened his mouth and looked at her as if he didn't expect that Ginny's face was not so good-looking, but her appetite did not change.

But that's a good thing.

The dinner ended quickly, and Ginny followed the team back to the Gryffindor common room. The strange thing is that one of the Slytherin and Hufflepuff common rooms is in the dungeon and the other is in the basement, but for some reason, Malfoy also followed them sneakily.

They walked happily to the third floor, and then immediately became silent.

Hundreds of people stared at the three helpless little figures in the empty corridor and——

"The secret room has been opened. Those who are enemies of the heir, be alert!"

When Malfoy discovered that the person standing in front of him was Harry, he immediately got out and read the blood-red writing on the wall loudly, with a cheerful expression on his face.

He looked at the still and stiff cat hanging there, his cold eyes became animated, his normally bloodless face turned red, and a sinister smile appeared on his face.

"You're next, Mudbloods!"
