The Dark Lord's Guide to Employment at Hogwarts

Tom was also secretly shocked by Anne's change.

Tom could feel that the oppression brought by Anne was getting heavier day by day!

Her strength becomes much stronger every few days!

Tom was shocked by the speed of growth.

These so-called "fake drugs" of Li Weide are too powerful!

Tom was already beginning to get excited.

If strength can grow so quickly... having a few side effects doesn't seem out of place...

However, seeing that Li Weide was still as steady as an old dog every day, Tom suppressed his restlessness.

He understood that Li Weide, like him, had the same desire to increase his strength.

However, Li Weide could still so easily hand over that "fake" that could quickly enhance strength to Annie, without touching it at all himself, which was enough to prove that the thing was definitely not a good thing!

I've been with Li Weide for so long, and I've suffered so many losses...

Tom understood one thing deeply, that is, as long as he followed Li Weide's footsteps, he would do whatever he did and not do whatever he didn't do, then there would be absolutely no problems!

Because Li Weide never does anything without confidence!

And Tom happened to be very cautious...especially about his own life...

In this way, the days passed day by day.

Soon, it was the end of December.

Christmas is approaching.

Hogwarts gradually became more cheerful.

"If you want to stay on campus for Christmas, you can come to me and get the application form."

In the morning, in the teacher's seat in the auditorium.

Professor McGonagall exclaimed, holding a stack of application forms.

Some young wizards immediately stepped forward to receive the application forms.

Neither Tom nor Li Weide moved.

They watched in silence as Annie ran up.

"Hasn't she had enough?" Tom whispered in surprise.

"Human desires are endless, Tom..." Li Weide said calmly.

"Meow~" Tom cat in Li Weide's arms stretched.

"But if she doesn't come back for Christmas... then our plan..."

"Don't worry, she'll go back. It's the end of the year, so why wouldn't she go back to report? Even if she doesn't want to go back, her aunt won't agree," Levid said with a smile. "As soon as she goes back, her increased strength will be obvious to Grindelwald..."

"So... after returning from Christmas... no, maybe we don't even have to wait until Christmas, Grindelwald will start to act... But how do you lead them into the trap step by step?" Tom asked.

"In the places she's looking for, I placed some 'fakes' and some incomplete manuscripts... Now, these manuscripts should be in Anne's hands. This information will guide them step by step to where I want them to go..."

After hearing this, Tom stopped asking questions and concentrated on eating.

"Tom, why do you suddenly stop asking?"

"You've considered everything, so there's no point in me asking." Tom said very soberly.

In fact, he was afraid that if he asked too many questions, Li Weide would get annoyed and try to trick him again...

Tom was also very distressed. Ever since he met Li Weide, this guy had been thinking about tricking him all day long... He didn't know why...

Could it be that he could get some reward for cheating me?

Tom thought as he used his knife to cut open a fried egg...

"It's okay to ask more about the plan... No matter how thorough my planning is, there might be omissions. I need your help, Tom," Levid said gently. "You can help me find and fill in the gaps..."

Tom secretly curled his lips when he heard this. You have already laid out all the plans, and now you tell me to check for omissions and fill in the gaps?

However, despite this, Tom still thought carefully before saying, "At the moment, it seems your plan has no loopholes... If you have arranged everything, then all we need to do now is wait and see."

"Okay, I trust your judgment, Tom..." Li Weide said with a smile.

"Huh? Wait!" Tom looked at Li Weide warily. "...If the plan fails, you're not going to put the blame on me, are you?!"

After I just expressed my opinion, Li Weide said that he believed in his own judgment?

If he fails in the future, can it be said that it was his wrong judgment that misled his judgment?

No wonder Tom was so vigilant. In Tom's impression, Li Weide was really capable of doing such a thing!

"Tom...how can you always look at me like this? We are close friends! How could I blame you for my failure?" Li Weide shook his head and sighed.

"Unless you promise that if you fail, it will have nothing to do with me!" Tom said vigilantly.

Li Weide sighed again and made a promise.

"Okay, I promise, even if the plan fails, it has nothing to do with Tom... I won't hold Tom responsible."

Tom finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.

Seeing Tom like this, Li Weide couldn't help but touch Tom cat's head in his arms again.

This kid is becoming increasingly difficult to deceive...

But... although I did promise it, I didn't say which Tom it was specifically.

"Hey, you two, why are you always flirting with each other while having breakfast?"

After Annie came back, she had been paying attention to these two guys for a long time.

They were communicating using whispering spells, and in the eyes of others, wouldn't that just be flirting?

"Tsk! What you said is disgusting, Annie! What's in your head?" Tom glared at Annie with disgust.

"What? If you're not convinced, come and fight!" Anne looked at Tom with a fighting look in her eyes.

Tom turned away from her.

Are you kidding... Only a fool would fight a strengthened Annie!

Li Weide remained calm, "Actually, we are trying to communicate through thoughts."

"Telepathy? Is this possible?" Annie asked curiously.

"Not necessarily, but you can try. Isn't the emergence of many new magics due to repeated attempts?" Li Weide said with a smile.

"Is that so... Did you succeed?"

"Not yet. Are you interested? You can join us too."

"No... I'm not interested..." Annie waved her hands.

How could she, a girl, flirt with two boys?

"What a pity, Annie, that your name won't be listed among the inventors of this new spell."

Annie just thought Li Weide was joking.

But Tom thought he heard a double entendre.

Doesn't this mean that Annie betrayed Li Weide, and now there's no place for her in the team?!

Tsk tsk, this guy Levid is really... Dumbledore actually thinks that such a guy is a good person!

"By the way, are you two going to leave school for Christmas vacation?" Annie asked.

"Yeah... I promised Tom that I would go do something with him." Li Weide said casually.

Tom was slightly taken aback. "You want to go with me?"

"Of course, wasn't it agreed upon long ago?" Li Weide said.

Tom was silent.

He plans to visit his mother's family during the Christmas holiday.

But Li Weide always said that his mother's family might not be as beautiful as he imagined...

Is it... really as bad as he said?

But what Li Weide said makes sense...if my mother's family is really good.

Then why would a witch rather die at the door of a Muggle orphanage than go home?

For a moment, Tom felt confused and confused...

Suddenly, a hand rested on his shoulder.

"No matter what, you have to face it. Besides, with me here, you don't have to worry about your safety." Li Weide said gently.

"Why do I feel like the greatest danger comes from you?"

"Oh, it's so sad that you say that again."

Since these words were not whispered, Anne could hear them clearly.

"So what are you going to do during the holidays? Why is it dangerous?" Annie asked confusedly.

"Nothing, just a little personal matter... But I noticed that you just filled out the application form to stay on campus. What? Aren't you planning to go back during the holidays?" Li Weide changed the subject lightly.

Sure enough, Anne, feeling guilty, immediately forgot to ask them what their private affairs were.

"I just...my aunt and the others don't have time, so I had to stay in school." Annie explained vaguely.

"Oh, that's how it is……"

After breakfast, Anne left first. She was a little afraid that Li Weide and Tom would ask her why she stayed in school during the holidays.

And...what if Li Wei De and Tom invite her to their house for Christmas?

Theoretically, she shouldn't have refused.

But she really couldn't go!

Otherwise, wouldn't her purpose in reporting to Nurmengard that she wanted to stay in school be in vain?

After returning to her dormitory, Anne took out her contact notebook and planned to tell Nurmengard that she would not be going back during the holidays.

However, as soon as she opened the notebook in a specific way, she saw a message on it.

[It's the holiday. Wade and Tom are not in school, so there's no point in you staying there. So, come back to Nurmengard to celebrate the holiday. I still have a lot of questions to ask you...]

This message made Annie feel like she was falling into an ice cave.

You know, she just wanted to lie and say that Wade and Tom were at school during the holidays, so she had to stay too...

After all, she had long known from Lewd that Dumbledore valued Wade and Tom, and even found them a house with a Fidelius Charm.

In other words, Grindelwald probably didn't know whether Wade and Tom would return home during the holidays.

However, this was only a few minutes slower... and fortunately, I was only a few minutes slower...

Because at this time, the order came!

Judging from the order, Grindelwald knew very well the whereabouts of Wade and Tom!

What if she had reported the lie before this message arrived, wouldn't it mean that it would have been completely exposed now?

Thinking of this, Annie suddenly felt terrified. She sat alone on the bed, paralyzed, and it took a long time for her to recover...

Grindelwald knew what Wade and Tom were doing, which meant that she lost her excuse to stay in school.

But now, she has changed so much that even ordinary classmates can see it.

Everyone thought that it was because Li Weide taught her a lot of things that made her stronger in a period of time.

How could Grindelwald not see it if he saw her?

In other words... that exclusive secret can no longer be kept to oneself!

Anne picked up her quill and wrote tremblingly in her notebook.

[Understood. However, Vader plans to explore the Forbidden Forest again tonight, as a last-ditch effort before the holiday. However, I think he has a very good chance this time!]

A moment later, there was a reply from the notebook.

[Okay, we'll cease all activities tonight. Also, be careful. There's a strange presence in the Forbidden Forest. It might only target adult wizards or goblins, considering you haven't had any problems for so long. But you still need to be vigilant! One of our goblin craftsmen has disappeared for no apparent reason, and everyone in the camp was asleep at the same time!]
