Chapter 101: The other side of Tom Riddle

    ?

    The golden eagle spread its wings and flew across the sparkling sea, breaking the waves that were coming against it with its wings.

    It didn''t take long for the high-flying eagle to see the coastline in the distance.

    He is back in England again.

    In the sky, a lone Dementor can be seen wandering from time to time. Two prisoners suddenly vanished from Azkaban, and Fudge would not sit idle or else his name will be tarnished.

    A large number of Dementors were wandering over the city, making the sky all over London suddenly dark. The thick gray clouds looked like a sketch that had been heavily daubed with a pencil. Even the temperature dropped several degrees.

    This is probably the coldest summer in the UK in decades.

    The city is filled with low-temperature condensed water mist. It seems as if the city has suddenly returned to decades ago and turned back into the "fog city". However, compared to that time, London now is at least much cleaner.

    The London that Cyrus remembered right now and London''s condition at present looked the same that Riddle had seen when he was young. The fog was thick, the roads were full of filth, bugs, and rats were wandering in the damp sewer mouths, and the ground was sticky as if a big bucket of sweet water had been poured on all the ground.

    It was no cleaner than the secret passage leading to Slytherin''s Chamber of Secrets.

    Judging from Riddle''s memories alone, Cyrus thought he was justified in hating Muggles.Geett the latest novels at novelhall.com

    He grew up in an orphanage, especially in those days when children from places like that were rarely successful. More often than not, they become gangsters, no different from rats in the gutter.

    It doesn''t matter if they haven''t read books or can''t read, but due to the environment, most would get acquainted with thugs and have a bad influence in their teens. Most of them will become the dirty gangsters of the neighborhood, like porcupines covered with thorns, struggling in the mud.

    The most important thing is that they didn''t accept Riddle after he got admitted to a ''good'' school according to them, and Riddle also disdains to be mixed with them.

    When they faced Riddle, an outlier in their group, their instinctive exclusivity did not allow them to get along safely. They would not want to see Riddle, a man who should be as humble as them, encounter a turning point in life and behave like a dignified individual.

    Not to mention Riddle''s previous attitude towards them.

    Sadly, Riddle, who was already attending Hogwarts at the time, suddenly lost all his fear of these Muggle children.

    - He is forbidden to use magic.

    With a flick of his wrist, the wand fell from his sleeve.

    Generally speaking, Animagus shapeshifters can turn their clothes into animal fur, but it is impossible to turn their wands into part of their bodies.

    They either hide their wands beforehand or simply carry them with them in their mouths.

    However, Cyrus broke this iron rule. When he performed the Animagus transformation, he also turned the wand into a feather on his body.

    He landed lightly, but still caught the attention of these Azkaban guards.

    There seemed to be a Dementor patrolling in the alley not far away. After hearing the noise, it immediately rushed over here.

    Cyrus freely used the wand to lightly brush his face, and the muscles on his face began to tremble as if he had drunk a compound potion. When Cyrus raised his head again, it had transformed into another appearance.

    Even the clothes were transformed by his magic from a loose robe into a crisp suit.

    He raised his chin and tugged on his tie, turning a blind eye to the dementors that kept approaching him. He just pretended to shrink when he passed by it, and then continued to walk straight and magnanimously out of the narrow alley.

    There were several Aurors patrolling the streets nearby. They were all dressed as Muggles. After all, they were well-trained Aurors and would not make any outrageous mistakes in their clothing.

    But Cyrus still saw the wands stuck in their waists.

    He walked past them calmly.

    He clearly felt the Auror''s eyes lingering on him for a long time. But he didn''t panic at all. He walked into the subway entrance skillfully like all other Muggles and passed through the subway turnstiles with ease.

    This series of operations immediately dispelled any suspicion the Aurors had about him.

    In other words, there was no doubt from the beginning.
