International students at Hogwarts

Chapter 42 Dumbledore: Is it too late to retire now?
Dumbledore took two deep breaths, secretly transmitted a little magic power to his heart, and stabilized his body.He took out his wand: "Back to the original!"

The pitted ceilings in the entire corridor began to become smooth and smooth, and the various broken decorations also returned to their original appearance.

The shivering freshmen also gradually regained their strength at this time. They huddled in the corner of the wall with a look of shock on their faces, unable to speak a word.

Dumbledore approached them, and he could see the bodies of many little wizards shaking uncontrollably. Dumbledore thought that the series of bombings just cast a huge shadow on their hearts.

They just seemed to be back in the trenches of World War II when enemy bombers dropped bombs on their ears—although no one was hurt, the fear was real.

Among all the people, only Percy and Lu Ren seemed relatively normal.One has seen a lot of the world and has a relatively strong psychological endurance, and the other is the initiator of the bombing, so naturally he was not affected much.

Dumbledore felt very tired.He has now conceived the idea of ​​quitting his job and going home to feed the goats.

He walked up to Percy and asked him kindly what happened just now.Dumbledore purposely used a soft, slow, pure, rhythmic voice—he had seen it in Muggle mother and baby magazines, such voices could calm children down and give them safety. feel.

Well, it's very plausible that a respected and well-read old wizard would have read mother and baby magazines at a young age along with others.

"I was taking the new students back to the Gryffindor dormitory, and I met Peeves on the way..." As he spoke, Percy's eyes gradually brightened, "It threw a big water bomb at us, and then One freshman cast a lot of blasting spells, yes, blasting spells!"

While Dumbledore was searching for words to comfort the student in front of him, Percy became excited: "What a beautiful blasting spell! Genius! It's simply art! I can't cast so many blasting spells so smoothly! And His spells are also very powerful!"

Percy was so excited that he almost danced with his arms and legs, and he was completely different from his usual calm self.

Dumbledore: (ー`ー)? ? ?

Wait a minute, something seems a little off.He quietly tucked his wand back into his sleeve.He'd even decided just now to put an Oblivion Charm on the freshmen to soothe their wounded hearts.

"Wow!"

"incredible!"

"This is too cool!"

The Gryffindor freshmen had recovered from the shock.And their state is obviously not frightened, but excited?

Dumbledore: Something is wrong with you!

If he could see the character panel at this time, Lu Ren's reputation among the freshmen of Gryffindor College had changed from being friendly to reverent.

Several young wizards gathered around Lu Ren, chattering and pestering him to ask him about the technique of the blasting spell, while Hermione ran to Dumbledore anxiously, and stammered to explain to him: "Professor Dumbledore , it was Peeves who moved first..."

Percy also chimed in: "That's right, Professor, this time Peeves really went too far. He threw a knife and fork at us first, and the explosion just now was really artistic! I'm still in the fifth year of school! This is the first time to see such an amazingly talented new student!"

Dumbledore rubbed his brows and let out a long sigh. This breath seemed to exhale his soul, and his tall body seemed a little stooped. "Okay, okay, no one will be punished today, children, go back to the dormitory first. Lu Ren, come to my office."

At this moment, Lu Ren's whole body was in pain.After overdrawing the magic power, the blood vessels in his body were like dry rivers. Although the blood was still flowing, Lu Ren really had the illusion that his blood had been drained. His breathing gradually weakened and his consciousness became blurred.

He tried to raise his hand, but found that his limbs were no longer listening to him. He tried to say something, but found that his throat could not make a sound.

Dumbledore calmed down the overexcited lion cubs, and then he was keenly aware of the problems Lu Ren encountered. He quickly gathered a ball of magic power and lost it to Lu Ren.

Lu Ren felt relieved of the feeling of long drought and sweet rain.

"Overdrawing your magic power is very dangerous. Of course, if someone refills your magic power in time, it will not be life-threatening." Dumbledore comforted and warned Lu Ren.

Then he signaled Lu Ren to go with him to the principal's office, this time Lu Ren couldn't pretend he didn't hear.

He was reluctant to part with the little lions, and then returned to the familiar principal's office.

Dumbledore slumped on his chair after returning to the office, and then said to Lu Ren, "Lu Ren, sit down."

Lu Ren showed an embarrassing smile: "Let's just stand up. When you're full, stand and digest." It was indeed my fault that the school exploded.

"Well, I don't mean to blame you, but I'd better be more cautious in the future." Dumbledore was very calm. "Today I mainly want to say sorry to you. I changed your academy on my own initiative. I did this out of selfishness. I'm sorry."

"It's nothing." The anger in Lu Ren's heart had disappeared without a trace.He took a look at Dumbledore, and still got up the courage to say to him: "Professor, I don't understand, why did you let Harry live in the Vernon's house? What he received there can be said to be abused. I don't think Harry is not at the moment." It's good fortune to be cynical."

Dumbledore paused, "Everyone can make mistakes, and I'm no exception. I didn't expect the Vernon family to treat him like that. And there's a lot of magic involved. Petunia is Harry's only blood relative, This relationship will protect him from the persecution of Voldemort's remnants."

Lu Ren frowned, and instinctively wanted to refute, you are worried about the persecution of Voldemort's remnants, so why don't you raise him yourself, or find a professor to raise him?
But he swallowed the words that were on his lips.He realized that Dumbledore didn't have a God's perspective like he did.He didn't know that Voldemort would come back three years later, and he didn't see Snape clearly 3 years ago.

He hadn't considered these things, and now onlookers would think that it would be better for Dumbledore to bring up the baby himself, but fans of the authorities, the best choice was to let Petunia raise Harry—and she did.

Harry is important, not because he is the key to defeating Voldemort, but because his parents died for the Order of the Phoenix - no one knows the exact date of Voldemort's return.

After Lu Ren figured out the key point, he nodded and let the matter go.Then he left Dumbledore's office, but before he left, he showed a wicked smile and said something to Dumbledore that almost drove him crazy: "By the way, Peter Pettigrew is an Animag Si, he can turn into a mouse, the one next to Ron."

Dumbledore: I'm resigning at the end of this year's term!
