<h4>Chapter 167: Tom Riddle cursed Tom Riddle.</h4>


    "I''m really sorry this time, Professor Drac." Newt said, "This boy Rolf has caused you a lot of trouble."


    Saying that, Newt was ready to make a fierce expression and teach his grandson a lesson in front of Drac and Dumbledore.


    But he ispletely a good old man character, forced to make an expressionpletely does not match with "fierce", on the contrary, it seems to be a little kind, but also a littleical ...


    "Don''t embarrass yourself, Mr. Scamander." Looking at the strange expression on Newt''s face, Drac couldn''t help but say, "In fact, the matter of Assistant Coach Riddle isn''t entirely Rolf''s fault alone."


    "You don''t have to take my face into consideration, Professor Drac, who is to me for this matter if not him?" Newt waved his hand, "If it wasn''t for Rolf''s inconsequential actions, how could Assistant Professor Riddle have been trampled by a magical animal and thus seriously injured?"


    "I have no regard for your face, Mr. Scamander." Dracughed softly, "But it may be true that Rolf isn''t entirely to me for this ident, and there''s no way for Asst. Prof. Riddle to deny this when he arrives."


    A look of bewilderment came over both Newt''s and Rolf''s faces.


    "Professor Drac, Luna didn''t put up a fight from start to finish!" Rolf seemed to have suddenly thought of something, hisplexion suddenly became anxious, "The whole thing was my doing, you must not implicate her!"


    "Luna? Luna Lovegood from Ravenw? Was she there?" Dumbledore froze for a moment, then looked at Rolf with a smirk, "Little Mr. Scamander, what you just told us didn''t mention Miss Lovegood."


    "Eh ... so you guys didn''t know Luna was there?" Rolf opened his mouth wide, "Then why would Professor Drac say that this matter isn''t all my responsibility?"


    "How are we supposed to know exactly what other people were present when you, the only person involved, didn''t even tell us?" Drac shrugged, "I''m guessing you misunderstood the whole thing where I said you weren''t solely responsible."


    "Let''s leave that aside for now. ording to you, the injury to Assistant Professor Riddle had Ms. Lovegood''s share of the me right?"


    "No ... no, she really didn''t do anything from start to finish!" Rolf was so anxious that he was close to tears, he really didn''t think that he had actually involved the originally innocent Luna in a slip of the tongue.


    However, it seems that ... the one who made the biggest contribution was really the horn of the "Bent Horn Sound Beast" that Luna gave him.


    "Honestly, little Mr. Scamander, besides you and Miss Lovegood, who else was at the scene where Assistant Professor Riddle was injured?" Drac asked as he sped his hands to his chest and looked at Lovegood with a smirk.


    "There really aren''t any more ah ...," Rolf said bitterly, "It really was all me alone, what else would go to the Forbidden Forest in the middle of the night?"


    "Everyone in Gryffindor except Percy Weasley, that could be anyone." Drac replied as a matter of course, "Oh no, Percy Weasley seems to be dating that Ravenw Head of ss, and the two of them often sneak off to the Forbidden Forest for dates as well."


    "When you think about it like that, everyone in Gryffindor could be your aplice!"


    Hearing Drac''s analysis, Dumbledore, who was sitting behind his desk, pulled down two ck lines on his face.


    "Professor Drac, have you forgotten that there is another Gryffindor-born wizard here?" He said with a leathery smile, "As a professor, academy bias is not something to be trifled with."


    "That''s not academy bias on my part." Drac retorted without budging in the slightest, "I''m just making a reasonable analysis and guess based on the differences in the personalities of the small wizards of each different academy, which is beneficial to resolving this business with little Mr. Scamander."


    "But this act of analysis on your part is itself a product of academy bias." Dumbledore said, "Gryffindor House isn''t all reckless, there are students here who follow the rules of the school ..."


    "And Hufflepuff College isn''t all loyal, kind, and sincere; there are the same sort of naughty, beckoning young wizards there."


    While speaking, Dumbledore subconsciously nced in Rolf''s direction.


    Newt and Rolf''s faces stiffened at the same time.


    One of their grandparents and grandson was halfway expelled from school for breeding magical animals in vition of school rules; the other simply sneaked into Hogwarts and skillfully blended into the Hufflepuffmon room.


    Dumbledore''s words certainly spoke to them vicariously ...


    "First things first, Lord Earl, I''m not the one who divided Little Rolf''s Hufflepuff!" The same Branch Cap that was ced in the Headmaster''s office jumped out at this point, "That is, Dumbledore indulged him, otherwise how could the Hufflepuff Common Room be entered by anyone else?"


    "Is that so?" Drac looked to Dumbledore.


    "Sort of, and I was only a trivial push for Rolf''s enrollment." Dumbledore nodded gently, then turned to the subcap and asked in a small voice, "Why did your guts follow you as soon as you saw Professor Drac?"


    "Isn''t that nonsense? He and my maker is a generation, but alsoe to find me things all day, I''m not afraid of him afraid of who ah ..." Branch Hat simrly whispered.


    Seeing that several people were arguing endlessly, and it seemed that they couldn''t stop for hours, Newt hastily stepped forward to round them up.


    "Albus, Professor Drac, don''t be so hasty to argue, we haven''t finished our business yet!" He interrupted, "Didn''t Professor Drac just say that? Rolf doesn''t need to take all the responsibility. So if it wasn''t Luna, what would share this responsibility with Rolf?"


    "Not really ''whoever'', but if you really want to count it, it can be counted on one person." Drac thought for a moment and turned to Newt, "Do you have any knowledge about the position of Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts?"


    "I know!" Rolf jumped in and said, "Every term of the ck Magic Defense Arts Professor at Hogwarts always has all sorts of idents and cannot be re-elected to the next term. Of course, you, Professor Drac, were the first to break that rule."


    "That was the biggest reason my grandmother and mother didn''t allow me toe to Hogwarts to study at the time. They both said that with a new professor every term, it was definitely impossible to teach to teach the students well."


    "Yes, that was indeed the thing." Drac smiled and nodded, "You may not be aware of it, but it can be proven that Voldemort, harboring hatred after his second failed job search, put a curse on the position of Defense Against the Dark Arts professor."


    "Does this have anything to do with Assistant Professor Riddle''s injury?" Newt asked.


    "It''s more than rted, it''s quite relevant." Drac didn''t know what happy thought had urred to him, and the smile on his face grew more pronounced.


    "Didn''t I just happen to be away for over a month''s time? Assistant Professor Riddle was substituting for me during that time, which means that he was the equivalent of the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts before I came back."


    "Voldemort''s curse wouldn''t have worked on me, but it wouldn''t have been much of a problem for Assistant Professor Riddle-"


    "It''s also because of his curse and extremely bad luck that he was able to just happen to stumble upon little Scamander''s nighttime excursion inside the Forbidden Forest, and ended up losing to this little guy by mistake even in the face of bad luck."


    "Hahahahaha ... this Voldemort, this Riddle is also too interesting!"


    Saying this, Drac exaggeratedly grinned and actuallyughed out loud.


    Newt: "..."


    Rolf: "..."


    No, is it appropriate for you to gloat so much when your assistant coach is seriously injured?
