Hogwarts Castle, inside the headmaster's office.

Rossi glanced at Grice, who was quietly sitting next to him on the sofa, and then turned his gaze to Dumbledore and Snape, who were sitting on both sides of the desk.

At this time, the phoenix Fox, with its dim wings, was dozing off on the perch behind the door, and the portraits of the previous principals seemed to have sensed the unusual atmosphere, and all stared at the four people in the room with wide-eyed eyes.

"Harry and the others are visiting Hagrid in the school infirmary, and McGonagall is waiting for the Ministry of Magic to send someone to take Quirrell away. Now there are only a few of us left here, can we have a good talk, principal?"

It could be seen that Snape was trying to keep his tone as calm as possible.

Dumbledore gently put his right arm on the table, resting his chin with his thumb and forefinger: "So, where should we start?"

"The traps you asked us to set up are not for trapping the Dark Lord at all, are they?"

"Not at all."

The sapphire-like eyes flickered, and Dumbledore was playing with a small and delicate silver ornament with his left hand on the desk, "When I saw the scar on Harry's forehead, I guessed it might be A sign of a connection between Harry and Voldemort."

Hearing this, Snape silently pulled up his left sleeve, and saw a faintly visible skull mark on his left arm.

"Not the Dark Mark, Severus." Dumbledore shook his head. "I kept guessing what it was until Miss Rosie showed up."

"Until I showed up?" Rosie was startled, and asked suspiciously in his voice, "You mean, I mentioned Voldemort and Horcruxes?"

"That's right." Dumbledore nodded slightly. "When I learned about the Horcruxes, especially when I learned that Voldemort had made multiple Horcruxes, I have been thinking about some things..."

He didn't elaborate on what he was thinking about, but pondered for a few seconds before changing the subject:

"Although Harry's mother gave him a kind of lasting protection with her life, I must be sure that his mind is not under the control of Voldemort."

"So you set up traps just to make Harry face the Dark Lord?"

Snape stood up from the chair, trembling slightly, "Aren't you worried that Harry will be killed by him?"

"As long as Harry calls home the place where his mother's blood lives, Voldemort cannot touch or harm him."

For Dumbledore's words, Snape obviously didn't believe it: "Can't touch or hurt? But doesn't the Dark Lord still want to possess Harry and snatch his body?"

"It was an accident, Severus. You should understand that no matter how well planned in advance, there will always be a little change in one way or another when it happens."

Dumbledore tilted his head slightly, "Voldemort was able to get the Sorcerer's Stone. This was an omission in my plan, and it was also the reason why he was able to temporarily break through Lily's magic. But fortunately, I had already rushed back by then."

Hearing this, Snape propped his hands on the desk, opened his mouth to say something, but finally held back when the words were about to come out.

Seeing that Snape stood there without speaking for a long time, Rosie who was sitting on the sofa couldn't help asking:
"Professor Dumbledore, so everything that happened is actually in your plan, including when Voldemort will appear?"

In fact, what she wanted to know most was whether Dumbledore was using the Book of Fate to control all of this.

"That's not true. I just set up the fishing rod and put the bait, and waited quietly for Voldemort to take the bait. As for whether and when he will come, it is uncertain."

After a pause, he continued, "But when Grice's accident happened, I knew he couldn't wait to do it."

Well, that sounds plausible.

After muttering silently, Rossi turned to ask again: "By the way, where is Percy? And Voldemort's Horcrux, have you destroyed it?"

"I have lifted the Imperius Curse on Percy, but he has been under the control for a long time, and his spirit is a little tired. There is nothing serious about it. When I bring him back, I will let him go back to rest.

As for Voldemort's Horcrux... Since he made multiple Horcruxes, it is far more meaningful to destroy this Horcrux at a more important time than to destroy it now. "

More important timing?Could it be time to fight Voldemort?
Looking at Dumbledore who was smiling and winking at him, Rosie suddenly felt that his guess was right.

……

When Quirrell was taken away by the Ministry of Magic, the system also sent a reminder that Mission Six had been completed.

But looking at the display still behind mission six (currently captured: 2, minimum number of captured: 2), Rossi knew that this mission must be to capture more criminals, and the rewards will be richer.

It's a pity that Lucius was too treacherous. Not only did he escape with his wife at that time, but even the conversation that provided Rossi with clues was actually ambiguous, which prevented the Ministry of Magic from arresting him.

For a while, life seemed to return to normal.

As time went by, Rosie's Defense Against the Dark Arts class gradually became the favorite and most serious class of the students in the school.

The day before Christmas, when Rosie woke up from a night of sound sleep, a thick layer of frost and snow had accumulated outside the window, and the black lake in the distance was even more frozen with a layer of ice.

But although the weather is cold, for children, the joy of the holidays can resist everything.

Of course, it's not just children, the lively festive atmosphere has a strong appeal.

So when Rossi sat at the long table in the auditorium, facing all kinds of delicacies, and listening to the students' frolicking, he couldn't help but smile happily on his face.

At this moment, a group of owls flew from outside the auditorium, and one of them flew straight to Rossi and dropped a letter.

"Ms Rossi,
I take the liberty to write to you, please forgive me.

In the newspapers this morning, I saw a message from the Ministry of Magic: The most wanted man, Quirinus Quirrell, has been captured in Hogwarts.

For those of us who know some inside information, these few words contain too much information.

What happened?Has anybody been hurt at Hogwarts, are you all right?is harry okayHas You-Know-Who been caught?

Forgive me for taking the liberty of writing to ask you these questions that are lingering in my mind.

In addition, Black said that he recently accidentally saw a Death Eater who had died in Azkaban appear in London, and he was sure he was right.Hmm... I don't know what happened to the mysterious man in the end, so I don't know if this news is still useful. It's up to you to judge.

Finally, I wish Christmas Eve and Merry Christmas!

Your faithful friend: Remus John Lupine. "

After Rossi read the contents of the letter, the system's prompt sounded:
"Clue: Escaped from Azkaban. Meet with Lupine and Black to confirm the identity of the escaped Death Eaters..."
