Harry Potter: Badger's Flathead

"Child, do you...see it?" Under the half-moon glasses, Dumbledore's blue eyes shined with wisdom.

"Sorry, Professor, I don't know what you are talking about." Ivan sat across from the desk, scooping mango pudding with a small spoon, looking like an ignorant and well-behaved baby.

(Dumbledore: This kid is really good at pretending!)

"Okay, stop pretending, you just wanted to take off Quirrell's turban, right! When... did you find out?" Dumbledore exposed Ivan and asked a question.

"Well... I'm not stupid~ From the fact that Harry always bothered me when he was looking for the Sorcerer's Stone, and Harry compared him with Professor Snape, plus his coy look, it wasn't difficult for me to guess him. has a problem!"

"Smart little guy, but aren't you afraid when he comes to you alone?" Dumbledore praised Ivan and took a sip of sugar mixed with coffee...

"Don't be afraid. With you, the greatest wizard in the magic world, who would dare to face the students in the castle openly? Isn't that a life of impatience?"

Ivan gave Dumbledore a small slap on the ass.

"Hoho~ Thank you for your compliment, but don't you think this is too risky? What if I don't find out? Then you are in danger!" Dumbledore winked playfully.

Ivan didn't speak, just turned to look at a witch holding flowers, visiting the picture frame of the previous principal hanging on the wall of the office. She was giving flowers to the previous principal.

The facts are self-evident.

"Well, you are indeed very smart." Old Bee shrugged.

"Actually, I just asked you to come here to have a chat with you. Speaking of which, I have been observing you for a long time ~ starting from the first time you fought, to when Quirrell gave you the certificate to open the forbidden book area and let you learn black magic." At this point, Old Bee paused, took a sip of candy, and observed Alvin's expression.

Seeing that there was still no change in Alvin, he continued.

"I originally thought that you might indulge in powerful power, but I didn't expect that you chose another path and learned rare alchemy knowledge. Maybe you also saw some black magic, but you didn't choose them. I’m very happy~”

With that said, Dumbledore blinked like an old naughty boy again.

"Just tell me what you want from me! I still want to go to the toilet~"

Alvin: I hate beating around the bush. I can tell you eight hundred tricks in one sentence! (￢_￢)

"Ahem~ Well, let's make a long story short, do you know what is on Quirrell's body?" Old Bee coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment.

"Judging from what Harry said and his state in the Forbidden Forest, it must be that Voldemort~" Feeling that the protective barrier in his mind was fine, Ivan simply spoke frankly.

"Oh~ Aren't you afraid of him? Today's wizards don't dare to say his name. You should have heard the reason."

"I'm so scared~ He's going to die, can he still lie on my bedside in the middle of the night and kill me? Besides, if you say his name, he will suddenly appear and kill you. How can there be so many people in the wizarding world saying it at the same time? Can't it exhaust him to death? Who does he think he is!

Is he a saint? Do you still think that you are Danyangzi? Do you just want to spread fear in this way so that you can achieve a cage-like fear status in people's hearts? The more you fear him, the more it will fuel his arrogance! Ha~ despicable means. "

Alvin crossed his arms across his chest, looking not afraid at all.

"Saint? Who is Danyangzi?" Old Bee was confused.

"Ahem~ It's okay, don't worry about these details."

"Okay, let's bring the topic back! You, a kid with a good attitude, must have the courage to face our fears and not succumb to the power of the evil one. It's good for you to think so.

So, you should have guessed what I want Harry to do, right? "

"You know, the Philosopher's Stone! Quirrell wanted to help Voldemort get the Philosopher's Stone, and you designed all this to let Harry, the destined man, stop it, right?"

Bang bang bang~

Dumbledore applauded Ivan twice, and then stated his purpose.

"Perfect! So, Ivan, I would like to ask you to help Harry, can you? Of course, I mean under the premise of ensuring your absolute safety."

If Alvin hadn't felt that the protection in his head was still there, he would have thought that the old man was using Legilimency on him. How would he know what he was going to say?

"I have some understanding of Hufflepuff's character. They don't put danger behind curiosity like Gryffindor. Are you right?"

Alvin: There’s nothing wrong with that!

"Then what benefits can I get?" Giving up the dangerous question, Ivan changed the topic.

"what?"

"What benefits can I get? I can't commit suicide without risking my life? Although I despise that Voldemort, I am not a fool! He is a dangerous person no matter what, why should I be thankless? Why don't you hang out in front of that guy? I'm just a kid!"

Ivan's words were so straightforward that Dumbledore was caught off guard.

"Well, aren't you and Harry friends?"

"Brothers are still settling accounts! What's more, you are asking me for help. You, the number one person in the wizarding world, can't come forward directly and ask me, a nobody worth mentioning. Of course, I have to find more for myself. What a benefit! You can understand, right~"

At this moment, Dumbledore seemed to feel that Ivan's eyes turned into the shape of Galleons.

(￥w￥)

"Hahahaha~ What a smart little guy, okay, if you have any requests, just ask!" Dumbledore laughed with interest.

"Just mention it, okay! Then lend me the magic stone for research when the time comes! Of course, as long as you're not afraid of it being damaged by me!"

"Can I ask, why do you want the magic stone? Is it to turn stones into gold, or is it the elixir of life?"

Although Dumbledore's words sounded normal, Ivan could hear a trace of scrutiny in them. It seemed that if he told one of the answers, his nature would be understood.

"The greatest treasure of alchemy for hundreds of years, which alchemist is not curious about it? Although I have just started alchemy, I still want to study its value! Maybe in the future, I can also make my own magic stone Woolen cloth!"

Ai Wen's expression is full of yearning, without any trace of adulteration. He really has no other ideas. He really just wants to use it for research and see if he can improve his own level!

Dumbledore looked at Ivan's eyes carefully. He did not use Legilimency. That was his bottom line for students. He purely used his eyes that read countless people to see through Ivan's heart!

"But don't you long for wealth, and eternal life?" Dumbledore's words contained a hint of confusion.

"My family is not short of money! I will work hard to earn my own wealth in the wizarding world, and I have the confidence to do so! As for eternal life... in my opinion, it is just a curse."

"Also, Mr. Principal, if this condition doesn't work, let's change it to another one and stop doing this meaningless trial, okay? I'm really in a hurry to go to the toilet!"

……

Alvin left the principal's office with a book in his arms and hurried to the bathroom. He was really in a hurry!

The book he was holding was lent to him by Dumbledore in order to compensate for Alvin's "meaningless temptation". It was a very advanced alchemy book, but he had to pay it back next semester!

Although he got Dumbledore's promise that he would lend him the Philosopher's Stone in the future, Ivan was not very happy.

Because from his point of view, Dumbledore still noticed him and just wanted him to be a paving stone on Harry's growth path!

He... was very unhappy!

As for the Sorcerer's Stone, it's not because of Dumbledore's generosity, it's because he fought for it!

If he doesn't fight for it himself, he may just get a compliment of "well done"! But he had to confront Voldemort, so he would be stupid if he didn't want anything!

If you want to take advantage of him, there is no way! When he is Professor Binns, he has not paid a penny to work for Hogwarts for thousands of years!

"Ah~ comfortable..." (●′?`●)

Alvin put up his pants with satisfaction, hugged the book and left, but he was choked up! This old bee is really chatty!

PS: Again, don’t compare with the book Swinging the Sword, the center is different, his book highlights Slytherin! My book is about Hufflepuff, and the purposes of the two houses are different. So, is it appropriate for me to compare with him?

One more thing, the author of Swinging the Big Sword is not a novice like me who just started writing novels this year. He is a veteran author of Zongheng Chinese Network! It’s normal that my writing is not as good as his, I know I can’t compare, thank you!
