BXBX NOVEL Chapter 680: who is he?
"The door is not closed."
Dumbledore, who was sitting behind the desk, raised his head and looked at Snape as he walked into the principal\'s office.
"What can you do with me?"
"The Magic Garden will host the Magic School Potions Championship this year." Dumbledore said straightforwardly. "Do you have a suitable candidate?"
"Miss Isabel McDoug is a good candidate. If she is willing to participate in the Magic School Potions Championship, she should be able to get good results."
"Where is Mr. Anderson?" Dumbledore asked suddenly.
"Anderson, I remember he is not an adult." Snape raised his eyebrows slightly and reminded, "It seems that there is no precedent for a minor wizard to participate in a potion tournament."
It is "too dangerous" for underage wizards to participate in the potions tournament.
This is usually a good excuse and works well for most students.
In fact, most students in the upper grades are indeed much higher in potions than those in the lower grades, so basically this will not happen.
However, Snape didn\'t know whether this excuse was going to work on Anderson.
"Someone recommended Mr. Anderson to me." Dumbledore put down the letter paper in his hand.
"Someone, who?" Snape asked suspiciously. He doesn\'t like Anderson very much. In fact, he doesn\'t like most of the students.
"Mr. Hertok Dagworth." Dumbledore said without hesitation. "He thinks Hogwarts School has not won the trophy of the Magic School Potions Championship in decades. A trophy is needed to tell other schools, Huo The level of potions at Gwartz School is not as bad as expected."
"Why would Mr. Hertok Dagworth recommend an underage wizard to participate in the competition?"
"They have correspondence. Hertok said that Mr. Anderson has passed the examination of the Association of Extraordinary Pharmacists and has a good chance of winning the championship. Can you tell me how good Mr. Anderson is in potions?"
"His potions are of very high level." Snape agreed. "But I doubt whether he will be able to participate in the competition. You know he is not an adult."
"I think this shouldn\'t be a problem." Dumbledore said calmly. "There is no age requirement for the Magic School Potions Championship. The so-called adulthood is actually just an unfamiliar rule for each school, just like the Triwizard Tournament. , No one wants casualties during the game."
Participants need to go deep in the magic garden to collect the potions they need, and return within the specified time to refine the potions into potions.
Therefore, it is necessary for the contestants to have a certain degree of self-protection, so as not to get injured when collecting potions.
"I see. I will take the time to teach them how to deal with those ingredients."
"Something?" Dumbledore asked quizzically when he saw Snape hesitate to speak.
Snape was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked: "You really intend to let the other side..."
"You mean Professor Lupin?" Dumbledore interrupted.
"They used to be good friends. I think... the Professor Lupin is unreliable, especially at this time. We can\'t take this risk." Snape said with a sullen face, saying that Professor Lupin bit him very hard. "Furthermore, he is extremely dangerous. If he is not careful, he may... We can\'t take this risk. Even if we boil the wolf poison potion, we need a lot of money."
"You\'ll help him make wolf poison potions, right!" Dumbledore asked, looking at Snape.
"Well, as you wish." Snape compromised, turning around and saying again before leaving: "But I still insist on my opinion. We shouldn\'t take such a risk, even if I am a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor."
Watching the back of Snape leaving, Dumbledore walked to the cabinet with the Pendant Basin and continued to flip through the memories of Black.
Since receiving that the goal of Black’s escape was Harry, Dumbledore has often used the Pendant to organize his memories of Black.
More than ten years ago, Black killed Peter for betraying James Potter, along with Muggles half a street, and was arrested by the Ministry of Magic. He was even sent to prison without trial.
Fudge said that Black’s target was Harry Potter, but Dumbledore was skeptical. The Dementor said that Black had been saying, “He is at Hogwarts.”
Does "he" really mean Harry?
The newspaper that Fudge handed over to Black appeared in the meditation basin. Dumbledore read the newspaper more than once. The only thing he found related to Hogwarts was the family photo taken by the Weasleys who traveled to Egypt after winning the Garon Prize. . It is mentioned above that the Weasley children are still attending Hogwarts.
"He" is obviously impossible to refer to the Weasleys, so what did Blake see in the newspaper?
This is what Dumbledore suspected. He must have seen something in this newspaper, so he decided to escape from prison.
As for Fudge said that Black’s brain is not clear, Dumbledore doesn’t think so. How could a guy who can escape from Azkaban prison be not clear on his mind?
Moreover, how did he successfully escape from that prison?
This matter is still a mystery to this day, and even the Ministry of Magic has not figured it out.
"What did I overlook?"
Dumbledore placed his wand on his temple and drew his thoughts into the **** basin. That was his memory of persuading James Potter to use the Courageous Faithfulness Charm.
The secret is Blake.
Only if Blake leaked the secret, Voldemort could find the Potters.
Dumbledore put another memory in the meditation basin, which was the memory of the four at school.
James is dead.
Lupin\'s life is not good.
Black was imprisoned in jail.
Peter was killed by Black, and the biggest wreck people found was a finger.
The biggest wreck where the Ministry of Magic found Peter was a finger?
Dumbledore knew that a lot of dark magic could make people wipe out, but... he took out another bottle of memory and put him in the **** basin. It was the memory of the Auror when he caught Black.
There was a big hole in the middle of the street, so deep that it broke the sewer pipe below, and there were Muggle corpses everywhere, and the Muggles screamed. And Black stood there laughing wildly, a pile of blood-stained robes in front of him?
When he saw this, Dumbledore couldn\'t help but squinted his eyes.
At this time, there was a knock on the door again, pulling him out of memory.
Dumbledore walked to the door, opened it and saw Snape standing outside, with an Auror following him.
"The Ministry of Magic sent someone to find you." Snape said, pointing to the Auror beside him.
"Come in, what\'s the matter, Dawlish?" Dumbledore asked, looking at the Auror beside Snape.
The Auror named Dalis said blankly, "The Ministry of Magic is ready. The Dementors will be stationed around Hogwarts from tomorrow. You don’t need to station them at Hogwarts. ?"
"No, as long as I serve as the principal for one day, they will never be allowed to cross the threshold of the school." Dumbledore said firmly, "and, they let Black slip out of my nose, I said to whether they can catch Black doubt."
"The dementor has no eyes," Dawlish reminded dryly.
"I know." Dumbledore said coldly, "So I am more worried about the safety of my students. You should be very clear about the character of those dementors. They have never been good people, let alone their goals. Is it my student? I don’t want them to regard my student as Black..."
"The Dementor is under the control of the Ministry of Magic." Dawlish was a little embarrassed. Dumbledore almost wrote his distrust of the Dementor on his face. He also knew that the other party was very unhappy with Fudge for this.
"I have always hoped so." Dumbledore reminded, "You who deal with them often should be very aware of the threats they pose to students. I don\'t want them to step into Hogwarts without my consent. The scope of it hurts my students."
