Chapter 305 Now It’s a Personal Grudge



The next morning, when Harry and others were about to enter the Hogwarts Great Hall for breakfast, they happened to meet Wentworth who was also there for breakfast.

After the few people greeted each other, Wentworth casually said:

"I have done what you asked me to do, you can rest assured!"

Harry and the others were shocked when they heard Wentworth's words. Harry asked impatiently, "That... basilisk, have you completely solved it? Is it dead?"

Facing Harry's question, Wentworth slowly shook his head. Just when Harry and the others were puzzled, Wentworth began to explain:

"The basilisk is still there, but I have dealt with the person who released it."

Before Harry and the others could ask again, suddenly, a surprised shout came from not far away: "Harry! Senior Harry!"

Hearing this voice, not only did Harry's face change, but Hermione and others around Harry also looked helpless.

Wentworth looked in the direction where the sound came from, and saw Harry's little fanboy Colin Creevey running towards Harry at lightning speed with a camera in his hand.

Hermione said helplessly:

"Why is he here again?!"

The next second, Colin Creevey ran up to Harry, took a photo, then leaned in front of Harry and chattered non-stop.

Hermione shook her head, turned and walked into the Hogwarts Great Hall, while Draco hurried forward and tried to pull Colin Creevey away from Harry.

However, what no one noticed was that Ron was standing quietly aside, watching the scene in front of him, seemingly unmoved.

However, if anyone saw Ron's eyes, they would be shocked. At this moment, Ron was looking at Colin Creevey who was jumping on Harry with hatred, as if he was going to take out his wand in the next second.

Of course, all this had nothing to do with Wentworth. Wentworth just took a look and lost interest, then walked quickly into the auditorium, followed by Cedric and Green.

As soon as they left Harry and the others, Cedric couldn't wait to ask, "Wentworth, what did they ask you for help with?"

Wentworth came to his seat and sat down, saying casually: "Nothing, just the rumor about the Chamber of Secrets. What Salazar Slytherin left in the Chamber of Secrets was a basilisk, but that chamber of secrets requires a key to open. I got the key yesterday and hid it."

After hearing Wentworth's explanation, Cedric and Green suddenly realized what was going on. However, neither of them took it as a big deal.

However, just one day later, when Wentworth and Cedric were studying ancient magic patterns in the library, they saw Harry, Hermione and others running over excitedly and pounced in front of Wentworth.

The sudden appearance of several people instantly interrupted Wentworth's thoughts. Wentworth frowned and looked at the sweaty people in front of him with an unhappy face, and said, "You better find a better excuse this time!"

Harry gasped and asked in horror:

"Senior Wentworth, didn't you say that the matter of the Chamber of Secrets has been resolved?"

Hearing Harry's question, Wentworth was also stunned, then nodded with some doubt, and asked:

"Yes, that matter has been resolved. What happened again?"

"Just now, Colin Creevey was petrified!"

Hearing Harry's words, Cedric looked at Wentworth in surprise. Wentworth suddenly stood up and said in disbelief:

“This is impossible?!”

But after looking at the expressions of Harry, Hermione and others, Wentworth knew that these people did not have the courage to deceive him about such a thing.

Thinking of this, Wentworth's face darkened, and he said to Harry and the others, "Take me to see it!"

When Wentworth, led by Harry and others, walked towards the place where Colin Creevey had the accident, just halfway there, he saw Colin Creevey being carried out with his body stiff, and walked towards the Hogwarts infirmary.

At the same time, Dumbledore, Snape and others followed behind him with heavy faces.

Seeing this, Wentworth's face was so gloomy that water seemed to drip from it.

Not long after, Cassandra and Green also came over, but when everyone saw Wentworth's expression, no one dared to ask any more questions.

Wentworth was silent for a moment, then turned to Harry and the others and said, "You go back first. Remember to be careful and protect yourself. I'll go see what happened."

After saying that, Wentworth turned and left. Seeing this, Cedric, Cassandra and Green also hurriedly followed Wentworth's footsteps and left, leaving Harry and the others looking at each other in bewilderment.

When Wentworth and a few others came to the Room of Requirement in Hogwarts, they found that the diary they had hidden there was missing.

Seeing this, Wentworth gritted his teeth and said, "I didn't expect that he would actually get away!"

Cassandra and the others saw Wentworth's expression at this time and could guess what had happened. Just when Cedric wanted to go up to comfort Wentworth, he heard Wentworth say: "Very good, this is interesting!"

"Originally I agreed to help them just because I was afraid that Harry and the others would come to bother me, but now..."

"You've made me lose so much face. Now, our feud is personal!"

Hearing the eagerness revealed in Wentworth's words, Cedric suddenly felt that his previous thoughts were a bit redundant.

Cassandra on the side said softly: "If he can't even do this, then he has been the new leader of the Witch Party for so long in vain!"

Then, Wentworth turned around and said to Cassandra, "Cassandra, find a way to get close to Ginny Weasley and see if the diary is still in her hands. I suspect that Tom Riddle may have left some tricks on Ginny. Even if he leaves Ginny, he can still control her thoughts and actions for a short period of time! I want you to see if Ginny came here again and took back the diary after I left."

After hearing Wentworth's order, Cassandra agreed without hesitation. Although Cassandra was usually a little arrogant, when Wentworth spoke in an imperative tone, Cassandra would only answer with one word:

"good!"

Then, Wentworth instructed Green and Cedric, "Our target is all the students at Hogwarts, especially those whose recent behavior has changed from the past. Tom Riddle must be next to someone!"
