Hogwarts: The Book of Magic

Chapter 160 The Cockroach Pile

"Let's go, I'll write you a letter of introduction, and by the way, I'll go through the procedures for you to suspend school."

Dumbledore walked ahead, heading for the headmaster's office.

Lean followed without saying a word.

"Are you wondering why I'm so nice to you all of a sudden?" Dumbledore said suddenly.

Rin froze for a moment, then nodded.This is also what he is thinking about.Dumbledore not only pointed him out, but also said that he introduced him to Nicole Flamel, and in the end he went through the formalities of suspending school for himself, which is not something a headmaster should do.

There is no free lunch in the world, and there is no pie in the sky, so Lean is very vigilant about Dumbledore's actions.

"Don't worry, Lean, in fact, it's not that I don't have requests."

Lean couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard Dumbledore's words.If you really wanted to have no desires, then this letter of introduction would be too hot for Li En to hold in your hands.

"More than 50 years ago, there was a student who was as talented as you. He was as full of magic as you..."

"Tom Marvolo Riddle?"

"It seems that you know it, so you also know his other identity?"

"Voldemort."

"Lian, it's good. Too many people in the magic world are still afraid of the darkness he brought, and they don't even dare to call his name, but you don't. That's good."

The two of them were walking while talking, and the portraits around the corridor were also gone. They didn't know where they went, and the entire eighth floor was empty.

"arrive."

After a while, Dumbledore brought Lien to the door of the principal's office. He waved his hand, and the stone statue in charge of guarding the door moved away automatically.

"Well, being a headmaster is always kind of a privilege, isn't it?"

Dumbledore winked at Rin, then walked in.

"Dumbledore, I have been looking for you for a long time, and I knew you would definitely come here. But I have to tell you with regret that you have been dismissed. Because we haven't elected a new principal for the time being, we will let Mike Vice-principal Ge acts as principal temporarily."

Lucius was waiting in the principal's room, and as soon as he saw Dumbledore coming, he immediately leaned over and talked non-stop.Letting Professor McGonagall act as the headmaster is completely alienating the relationship between them.

"Okay, I see, Lucius. You are very busy, so you must not want to talk to an old man like me?"

After speaking, Dumbledore stared at Lucius with blue eyes.

"Of course, so I'll go first."

Lucius was stared at by Dumbledore with trepidation in his heart. After putting the dismissal notice in his hand on the table with a "snap", he straightened his clothes and walked out. Before leaving, he smiled at Lean.

"Rin, I think you are right in saying that we are wizards."

Dumbledore laughed twice, and sat down on the chair behind the desk in the principal's room with a peaceful mind, then picked up the quill and began to write on a piece of letter paper with purple patterns.After a while, he inserted the quill into the inkwell and left a magical mark on the letter paper to prove that the letter was indeed from him.

"Here, and your application for leave of absence."

Lean took a letter and a piece of paper from Dumbledore.

"So what's your request?"

Lean pinched the letter and paper in his hand, stroked them twice, and asked.

Dumbledore was silent for a while, and said hesitantly, "I want to ask you something. You should have guessed that the changes in the castle this year were caused by Voldemort. I suspect that he has been resurrected. But what is strange is that, He didn't summon his men, and I wonder if he's planning something."

"So I would like to ask you to help me pay attention to this information when traveling abroad. In addition..."

Dumbledore tapped his fingers on the table, making a "da da" sound.Lean sat in a chair and looked at Dumbledore, waiting for his next words.

"If possible in the future, please help Harry when necessary."

Dumbledore spoke anyway.

"I don't understand, Professor." Lean said, "I don't understand why you are so convinced that the person in the prophecy must be Mr. Potter?"

"Mr. Longbottom should also meet the prophecy."

Ryan looked at Dumbledore.He didn't want to say this at first, and wanted to be confused for a while, but Dumbledore asked him to help Harry after he asked, already tacitly acquiescing that Rian knew his plan.

"Yeah, I wasn't sure at first, so I took a gamble. Fortunately, I seem to be right."

Dumbledore took out a transparent glass tube from under the table, which was full of black cockroaches crawling wildly.Dumbledore opened the jar, took one out of it, and dropped it into his mouth.

I saw Dumbledore bite, and a trace of yellow liquid accidentally appeared from the corner of his mouth.

"Oh, sorry, would you like some? Cockroaches, my favorite sweet."

Dumbledore seemed to have noticed Lean's gaze staring at the jar, asked with a smile, and then grabbed another cockroach.

"Look, just one bite like this and the honey inside bursts out in your mouth, and it's pretty darn good."

In order to demonstrate, Dumbledore brought the cockroach to his mouth, and then took a bite, biting off the lower part of the cockroach.Lean could clearly see the honey gushing out from the severed part of the cockroach's body and the trembling tentacles on its head.

"Oh, no, I can't accept it."

Lean quickly refused, even if he didn't see Dumbledore's demonstration, he didn't want to eat it, let alone Dumbledore made such a demonstration that made San value crazy.

"It's such a pity. This is a rare delicacy. If I hadn't said hello to the boss of Candy Duke and left a can for me every time, I wouldn't be able to grab those young people."

"Harry Potter is the savior, he defeated the Dark Lord, didn't he?"

After eating two piles of cockroaches, Dumbledore answered Rian's question.

"What's more, Mr. Longbottom looks like..."

"People change. Mr. Longbottom has changed now."

"I'll pay more attention. After all, it's not like you." Dumbledore gave Rin a suspicious look. He knew that Rin was the kind of person who didn't pay for anything.

At this time, he suddenly brought up the matter of Longbottom, he must have asked for something.

"Please take care of Hermione more in the future."

"But what does that have to do with Mr. Longbottom?"

"In the second half of next year, the Ministry of Magic will propose to reopen the Triwizard Tournament."

Dumbledore was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay."

If the Triwizard Tournament really restarts next year, it means that Lean has the talent for prophecy, so Longbottom really needs to pay attention.thought Dumbledore.

And Lean didn't have any loss at all. In the original book, Neville did hack Voldemort's last Horcrux to death.
