Obscure at Hogwarts

If another teenage wizard said that he had used the power of fire to destroy a ray of Voldemort's remnant soul, Snape would have sneered and asked:

"Would you possibly have the courage to draw your wand in front of that person?"

"Feel sorry!"

"I don't have any!"

But since these words came from Louis' mouth, Snape was undoubtedly willing to believe him.

after all.

Louis has a very outstanding record ahead of him.

As early as when the Dark Lord Grindelwald secretly sneaked into Hogwarts, Louis relied on his identity as the Obscurus to delay Grindelwald's progress and made him notice the threats from the professors. support, but reluctantly gave up the original plan.

however.

In any case, Snape and Dumbledore were quite surprised that Louis could use the powerful fire to eliminate the hidden dangers in Harry's body.

Especially Snape.

At this moment, looking at Louis's triumphant expression, the expression he showed was extremely wonderful, as if he had eaten Xiang.

It was Dumbledore instead.

Instructing Snape to teach Louis how to use the powerful fire was part of his plan to eliminate hidden dangers in Harry's body.

No matter whether the hidden dangers hidden in Harry's body were eliminated sooner or later, it didn't matter to him. He was just paying more attention to whether there was any element of lies in what Louis just said.

The simplest and most direct way to detect whether others are lying is to use Legilimency.

However, he had the experience of using Legilimency on Louis before and failed. As a master of Legilimency, Dumbledore could only rely on his lie detection intuition to judge whether Louis was lying.

结果

He clearly failed to recognize the lies Louis had concocted.

Who knows that Louis himself is a master of lie detection and has very rich experience in lying?

Then, Dumbledore really wanted to ask Louis about the details of how he destroyed Voldemort's remnant soul, but there were some things that must never be discussed in front of Snape, so he relaxed slightly and said with a smile:

"Mr. Rogers, it seems that the Sorting Hat's decision was correct. You are indeed a very courageous Gryffindor."

Louis: ""

Ah!

Did you bring this up on purpose because you wanted me to settle old scores with you?

Still brooding about being assigned to Gryffindor, Louis glanced at Dumbledore without revealing any trace, unwilling to continue following his topic, so he asked instead:

"Principal, you are the wisest person in the world, so do you know how well I solved Harry's problem?"

"You did a great job."

Dumbledore smiled and praised: "If it were me, I might not be as perfect as you, but Mr. Rogers, I hope that when you encounter trouble in the future, you can turn to me or Sev as soon as possible. Les asked for help instead of doing it alone, you know?"

"Understood, Headmaster."

Louis nodded vigorously at first, then slowly frowned and asked: "Also, principal, was that mysterious man really killed by me?"

"Oh?"

Dumbledore raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "Child, what do you want to say?"

"What I want to say is that I have an inexplicable premonition."

Louis hesitated for a moment and said: "Ever since I used the fierce fire to deal with the mysterious person in Harry's body, I always feel that there are many more mysterious people in the world."

"Later, uh"

"I secretly went to the library area to check some information and found that the mysterious man may not have been eliminated by me or Harry, because he probably used very evil black magic and obtained the immortality that countless people dream of!"

"eternal life"

Muttering this word in his mouth, Snape paid no attention to Louis sneaking to the library area, and said thoughtfully: "Mr. Rogers, based on your investigation, what do you think the evil black magic used by the mysterious man is?"

"Horcrux!"

Louis said firmly: "I think the mysterious person has obtained the method of splitting the soul. For example, the legendary dark wizard Helbo made many Horcruxes to entrust the soul!"

"When Harry's parents were killed, he had a special connection with the mysterious man. It must have been the mysterious man who accidentally made Harry into a special Horcrux!"

Listening to Louis' analysis, Snape's expression became worse and worse, and Dumbledore's eyes flashed with embarrassment.

This was obviously a secret that Dumbledore didn't want to reveal to Snape. Who knew that Louis was actually an upright boy who trusted Snape who gave him private lessons every day, so he casually chatted about it. The Horcrux thing.

Good luck.

For the time being, Snape had no intention of getting to the bottom of it, and did not directly embarrass Dumbledore.

But what happens when the two return to Hogwarts?

Dumbledore could instantly imagine how troublesome it would be for him to provide a reasonable explanation for Snape.

Immediately, the two of them were silent for just a few seconds. Dumbledore gave Snape a look that meant he had something to talk about, and then faced Louis and said:

"Mr. Horcrux Rogers, the content you analyzed really surprised me."

"However, I'm more curious about what you had in mind. Can you tell me about it?"

"Of course, Headmaster."

Louis said calmly: "For example, right now, I can vaguely feel the presence of the mysterious person, and the vague aura seems to be..."

"It seems to be in the direction of Diagon Alley!"

Diagon Alley?

Gringotts!

Obviously, following the reminder given by Louis, Dumbledore and Snape looked at each other and saw through the meaning in each other's eyes. They decided that one of Voldemort's Horcrux must be hidden in the ancient palace in Diagon Alley. Inside the Ling Pavilion.

therefore.

In the later eye contact, Snape's meaning was very clear, that is, before Voldemort's power has not returned, the two of them went to Gringotts to collect Voldemort's Horcruxes.

Dumbledore also had the idea of ​​collecting Voldemort's Horcruxes.

However, thinking that he still had something to discuss with Louis, Dumbledore did not rush to take Snape to Diagon Alley, but directly extended an invitation to Louis:

"Mr. Rogers, you should know what it would mean to the entire wizarding world if the mysterious man is resurrected."

"Now, you are the only one among us who can foresee the existence of the mysterious man, so can I take the liberty to invite you to go to Diagon Alley with me?"

It was originally Louis' secret plan to guide Dumbledore and Snape to Gringotts. Of course, he was willing to follow the two of them to Gringotts to see how they could crack the "divination bird" Delphi left behind. difficult problem.

But he nodded directly in agreement. On the one hand, he was not reserved enough. On the other hand, Louis was afraid that Dumbledore would think too much.

Therefore, before giving Dumbledore a positive answer, Louis asked carefully:

"Principal, before I accompany you to Diagon Alley, can I go back and ask my parents what they want?"

"You know."

"It might take us a lot of time to get to Diagon Alley, and I don't want my parents to worry about me."
