Riddle Manor is in Little Hangleton, about four or five miles away is Great Hangleton, where Gunter's old house is located.
On the way to Gaunt's old house, you will pass by Little Hangleton. This may be why the Dark Lord's mother fell in love with Tom Riddle. They are neighbors.
Riddle Manor is located in a large mansion on a hillside, overlooking the cemetery and church below.
Fifty years ago, a tragedy occurred in the Riddle house. A family of three were murdered overnight, with no murder weapons and no visible injuries. Frank Bryce, the gardener of the Riddle House, was questioned and arrested, and suffered half a torture.
Century of censure and imprisonment.
When Frank Bryce was released from prison, he was already old, and the current owner of the Riddle House gave him a job and invited him back to look after the place.
Although Frank Bryce has now been proven innocent, he is still ostracized by his neighbors because of his unfounded criminal record. The children around him regard the Riddle old house where the murder occurred as a place for adventure and play, and they are playing tricks on him.
At the same time, it will also cause a little destruction from time to time.
After Frank Bryce finished inspecting the cemetery, he put the kettle on the stove in the small house where he rested. As soon as he looked up, he saw the lights of the old Riddle house on the hillside in the distance reflected.
"What a bunch of unlucky kids!"
Frank complained, threw his gloves on the shabby sofa nearby, picked up the lantern that had just gone out, relit the light with a match, and prepared to walk towards Riddle's old house.
As the current administrator, he has to protect this place. Children who come to take risks are not careful about fire sources, and they might set the whole house on fire later.
After adjusting the brightness of the lantern, Frank tremblingly opened the door of his cabin, only to find that there were two more people at the door.
Frank illuminated the people in front of him with a lantern, asked and warned: "Who are you? This is private property and next to the cemetery! If you are looking for a picnic spot and a resting place, go down the mountain to Little Hangleton. If you don't leave, I will
Call the police!"
Luo Xia looked at the old man in front of him and asked inexplicably: "Do you regret it?"
Frank was a little confused. There was something wrong with the person in front of him. He asked, "What do you regret?"
"Everything that happened at Riddle House made you stay in prison for fifty years. After you were released from prison, you have become like this. Your youth and life have been taken away long ago. I don't regret that you were in Riddle House."
Looking for a job?”
Frank's hand holding the lantern was a little trembling. He raised his head and said, "Son, if I regret it, I will not participate in World War II! That is the starting point of my life!"
Without giving a direct answer, Frank just took two steps outside and slammed the dilapidated wooden door. However, the lock of the wooden door broke directly under the force of his hand.
Frank picked up the lock on the ground, stuffed it into the crack of the door and locked the door. Then he turned to Rorschach and said, "Get out of here, I have to finish my work."
"No need to go, I didn't hire you to kill you..."
Rorschach's voice sounded behind Frank. The old Frank turned around, placed the lantern in front of Rorschach, and looked at the person in front of him carefully.
"I've never met you, and I've never met the person who hired me."
Frank told the truth. He did not meet anyone in the employment process. He just got out of prison and received a letter in the mail, which happened to contain a job.
Rorschach pushed open the broken wooden door of the hut, pointed to the squeaking kettle on the stove, and said, "The water is boiling. Let's have a cup of tea first. I will tell you what's going on here..."
The tragedy of Riddle House's past comes from the fact that the witch Merope Gaunt not far away fell in love with Riddle's son-in-law.
A handsome but arrogant rich Muggle boy, the witch Merop was only obsessed with his handsomeness and wealth, so she used magic to make Riddle fall in love with her.
A year after they eloped, because Merope was pregnant and no longer wanted to live such a false life, she stopped using the love potion on Riddle and told Riddle his identity as a wizard. Riddle abandoned Merope immediately after he sobered up.
Lope and the unborn child.
After giving birth to little Tom Riddle, Merope died on the doorstep of Wood's Orphanage in London.
Not surprisingly, little Tom Riddle had the talent of a wizard, successfully enrolled in Hogwarts, and began to use his appearance to confuse other girls, ladies and ghosts.
Tom went to Little Hangleton Village to search for his life experience. In the dilapidated old Gaunt house, he met his uncle Morfin Gaunt and learned about the death of his grandfather Marvolo Gaunt. He first knocked Morfin Gaunt unconscious.
Fin then went to the Riddle House and used his uncle's wand to kill his father, the Riddle family, who expressed disgust and hatred for Tom.
The Ministry of Magic took away Morfin, while the police in the ordinary world took away Frank Bryce.
After telling about the past of Riddle House, the pot of water was almost finished. After Adam refilled Rorschach's last cup, Frank also slowly put down the tea cup and raised his head.
Frank looked at Rorschach seriously and said, "If what you said is true, then who is in the Riddle House now?"
"The little Tom Riddle he once was, he's back."
Frank then said: "According to you, little Tom Riddle is now a KB member?"
"Guaranteed replacement if fake."
"I'm going to call the police right now! You should also report it to that wizard policeman. You must not let them continue!"
Frank stood up in a hurry, rummaged through the room and found a few coins. Then he picked up the lantern again and prepared to walk to Little Hangleton down the mountain to find a public phone to call the police.
Sure enough, it is exactly the same as the description in the original book. Although he had a rough life, Frank Bryce was a just and persistent man.
When Frank opened the door again, the scene outside the door changed.
Silent figures filled the surroundings, holding wands and deploying various defensive magics around them.
Frank turned around and saw Rorschach raising the tea cup to him and said, "Can you boil some more water? We may need to monitor these KB elements."
Frank put down the lantern, returned to his small room, and said, "So you are the police? You have found them and are ready to close the net?"
"That's right..."
After hearing this, Frank began to pack things in his cabin, and Rorschach asked in confusion: "What are you doing?"
"After closing the network, I have to find a new job..."
"No, I will continue to hire you, but I just want to ask first, can you still shoot? People who can shoot and people who can't shoot are treated differently here."
Hearing this, Frank Bryce was a little angry. He put down the kettle and threw it on the stove. He looked at Rorschach seriously and said, "Do you doubt that a World War II veteran will forget the skills he learned on the battlefield?"
Rorschach did not answer, and Adam on the side handed over a revolver. It was a World War II standard pistol Webley 455in revolver, a revolver with sharp edges.
When he picked up the weapon, Frank's hand stopped shaking instantly. With the familiarity in his memory, he unskillfully opened the magazine and reloaded it.
This process was repeated until Frank could load the bullet into its cylinder with his eyes closed.
Holding the pistol, Frank asked: "Do you want me to shoot twice to prove myself?"
"No, that's enough."
In the old Riddle house on the hillside in the distance, Voldemort has now become a shriveled baby.
Bellatrix held Voldemort tenderly like a mother, gently wiping the dirt off his body.
But when she turned around, Bellatrix, who looked at Peter Pettigrew, was full of disgust. She said fiercely to Peter: "You are so picky, Wormtail! Why don't you hurry up and squeeze out Nagini's venom?"
, if you were not the master, you would still be living in the sewers of Azkaban! The master needs to take the potion every few hours. When will those damn guys put the blood of unicorns, dragons and other magical creatures?
Bring back the blood!"
Peter Pettigrew huddled aside, holding the vessel in his hand, watching Nagini spray venom into it. His hands did not dare to tremble at all, for fear of being contaminated by this bone-corrosive poison.
After finding Nagini and then Voldemort, the Death Eaters discovered that Voldemort had relied on his own curse to transform his soul into a body again, but his current body was extremely fragile and in danger of dying at any time.
So at Bellatrix's request, other Death Eaters went looking for any magical items that could prolong Voldemort's survival. Only Peter Pettigrew and Bellatrix took care of Voldemort at the Riddle House.
Hiding in the slightly inhabited Muggle world has also avoided some Ministry of Magic explorations. Today's Aurors of the Ministry of Magic are still looking for remote and uninhabited places. Darkness under the lights has become Voldemort and the Death Eaters' plan to survive.
After scolding Peter Pettigrew, Bellatrix turned into a fanatical believer who longed for Voldemort himself. She gently placed Voldemort on the sofa aside, and then knelt down beside Voldemort.
Bellatrix lowered her head and said: "Master, I have a big plan to announce your return to everyone!"
Voldemort, who looked like a shriveled baby, raised his rotten and pale hands and said: "Pay attention to that child! Without that child, this thing cannot be done!"
Bellatrix crawled to Voldemort's side, gently took his hand and put it on her cheek, saying: "Don't worry, Master, all the Death Eaters know that they will cooperate with Barty Jr. to send the boy away."
Come to your side..."
"very good!"
With just two words spoken, Bellatrix approached Voldemort excitedly, as if she had been given a shot of blood, and then urged and tortured Peter Pettigrew.
Their plans were also captured by the pinhole cameras arranged around them and sent back to Rorschach.
After hearing the plan, Rorschach said to Adam on the side: "Inform Fudge that he has another opportunity to make meritorious deeds..."
