HP: I just wanted to drop out of school, but I saved the world

It must be said that Minister Bones knows how to press on to win and kill people.

After a debate in which neither could convince the other -

Poor Dumbledore suffered another critical hit from the child and it seemed that his health bar was empty.

Two fists are no match for four hands, so he chose to avoid the fight temporarily, lay low and wait for another fight another day.

So the topic returned to the relocation of the laboratory.

"It happened so suddenly that I couldn't pick a suitable location right away." Minister Bones shook his head. "I wanted to vacate my house for renovation... but according to Auror observations, there have been sneaky peepers there for several days in a row, which means that the location of my house has been exposed. They are probably here to assassinate me."

"I have a house in Godric's Hollow," said Dumbledore, "but as you know, Godric's Hollow was attacked by Voldemort and is not a safe place."

Jian Yu listened to the two of them talking to each other, but she felt that was not the position she wanted.

"Perhaps we should change our thinking and not choose a laboratory in a place where wizards gather that attracts attention?" She said, "I think a location in the Muggle world would be more appropriate, preferably in a sparsely populated suburb, where Muggles and wizards rarely pass by."

As she spoke, a familiar place where she had lived appeared in her mind.

The environment there is very dirty: a stinking river...weeds everywhere...mountains of garbage...broken street lights...abandoned houses with no people...

——That’s Spider’s End!

But despite the bad environment, it is indeed a suitable location for a laboratory:

Cokeworth, where Spider's End is located, is an industrial town that has become an industrial wasteland under the tide of time.

Apart from Professor Snape, no wizards visited here. Even the Muggles themselves, those who had a little money, had moved out of this alley.

Therefore, there are many abandoned factories here, which can be purchased for free by simply tidying them up and reinforcing them with spells.

Not only could she get a potion master to fill the gap in the research team's drug development...but she could also make full use of several vacant properties she had bought, protecting them with the Fidelius Charm and using them as staff dormitories.

In the Muggle world, it will be more convenient to go to shops, bookstores, hospitals, schools and other places to obtain Muggle items, which will provide extracurricular knowledge for experimenters who are trying to combine Muggle technology with wizard magic.

If we can rely on the laboratories and factories to gradually build that area into a strategic material supply base... covering the entire upstream, midstream and downstream industrial chain...

That might be able to incubate an industrial park... a production base... or at least a commercial street.

"I have several properties in Spinner's End Lane in Cokeworth Town." Jian Yu cast his eyes on the two of them. "Muggle location, rarely visited, industrial wasteland... What do you think about us renovating it?"

Minister Bones, who didn't know much about the Muggle world, looked at Dumbledore inquiringly, hoping that he could give some advice.

Dumbledore was stunned for a moment. He lowered his head and carefully thought about the meaning behind this proposal.

He understood the sensitivity of this location...

Spinner's End is where Snape lived since he was a child, and it is also where he took care of Jane for a period of time during the summer vacation.

Although only heaven and earth know the true identity of Snape's undercover, he knows Snape knows...

But he knew that with Jane Yu's keenness... and her deep teacher-student relationship with Snape in Slytherin College...

After years of getting along, she must have some guesses about the other person's true identity...

Choosing this place as the laboratory's location, on the one hand, implies her complete trust in Snape -

On the other hand, it was also tactfully asking him: whether he trusted Snape and whether he firmly believed that Snape would stand on their side!

Jian Yu only saw Dumbledore lowering his head, with his glasses blocking his vision.

She couldn't see the meaning in his eyes, but after she felt that a very long time had passed, he finally raised his head and said:

"That's a very interesting suggestion, Jade."

"Just maybe...we should go talk to Severus first."

He said nothing more, and calmly turned to Minister Bones and said:

"Amelia, perhaps you would be willing to let me take care of the lab construction and confidentiality?"

Minister Bones was stunned for a moment, then she happily agreed to the suggestion.

......

Jane Yu thought that Dumbledore would take her to visit Professor Snape who was on vacation at Spinner's End first, but he was not in a hurry.

In a dilapidated factory building in Spinner's End, Dumbledore waved his wand and cast a series of protective spells.

He seemed to have thought it through thoroughly, turned around and said to Jian Yu solemnly:

"Yu, I hope that the topic we are going to discuss next will not be known by a third person."

Seeing his serious expression, Jian Yu couldn't help but become nervous, and she nodded.

But what she didn't expect was that Dumbledore would start speaking to her in a serious manner.

"I know you can see the essence through the phenomenon." He said solemnly, "Compared to other children, you can see through the disguise of some people who have experienced a lot and see their inner heart... This is good, this is very sharp, and it makes me very happy."

No, why is my guardian starting to play charades again?

Jian Yu felt like his face was about to wrinkle into the shape of a bitter gourd.

"But Jade, I want to tell you something... Trust is a very heavy topic... I know you want to ask me about Severus Snape."

Jian Yu opened his mouth blankly, feeling like there was another capital "O" on his bitter face.

No, when did she ask him that?

"He is indeed a Death Eater." Dumbledore continued, "But people can change. He is on our side now and is getting information for us... that is enough."

"I know you want to ask me how deeply you trust him." He paused for a moment. "He and I do not agree on how to behave and even on our ideas, but when it comes to Voldemort, I trust him. Perhaps I don't trust him as such, but I trust that he still has the ability to love and repent, and I trust my own judgment. I hope this is the answer you want."

After opening their hearts, Dumbledore cast an inquiring look at Jian Yu, but saw that her expression was full of a strange...admiration?

Jian Yu often regretted that her hearing and comprehension abilities were too good.

By the time she realized what she had heard, Dumbledore had already completely fed the big melon into her mouth.

"Too awesome..." she murmured, "One person works two... no, three jobs... He has to serve the moody old man with no nose, check your teeth, collect intelligence, and clean up the asses of those who are flammable and explosive every day. The Order of the Phoenix and the Death Eaters have no salary, five insurances, and one fund, and even have to pay for medicine... No wonder they frown and emit a dark aura every day... It turns out that it's all the resentment of the workers... The dean is really too good-tempered..."

After hearing what Dumbledore said, she felt a little reluctant to give the fourth researcher job to this hard-working worker.

Dumbledore suspected that there was something wrong with his ears.

Otherwise, how could he hear Jian Yu's regretful "tsk tsk" sound?

Anyway, he selectively ignored the child's strange reaction and decided to get started:

"Let's get to work. It's night time and the Muggle Repelling Charm is in effect... I'll repair the factory, and you'll set up the alchemy table and the equipment. Once this is done, we'll go and repair and clean your house... Use the Fidelius Charm... Tomorrow we'll visit Severus..."

The room was bustling with activity and the sound of bells and clanging could be heard everywhere.

It's just that someone is tossing and turning all night long.
