The story in it is too scary, I don't like it. said Anna, "my mother told me the story--but I'd rather hear about Snow White." "

"Are you saying this because you want me to answer you?" Albus raised his eyebrows, "For example, the original version of the fairy tale—"

"Of course I know that," the girl interrupted him. "The original version of the Bad Queen was Snow White's real mother...my mother told me that too. Muggle fairy tales are scary, but " The stories in "The Tales of Beedle the Poet" made me even more horrified."

Albus was a little surprised.

"I just think "Mao Xinxin" is scary and not suitable for children."

"I think that "Witcher and the Hopping Pot" is pretty scary too."

"... Will it?" Albus felt that Anna probably had some misunderstanding about this story.

The author has something to say:

waited for a long time w

I almost forgot that there is still HP to write... Please don’t beat me _(:з」∠)_ I’m back and updated eh (cover face)

If it wasn't for the girl reminding me, I wouldn't know it hasn't been updated for so long?

I have an exam next week, but I'm probably already prepared to die. I can't read the book at all...

I feel like I dug a big hole for myself_(:з」∠)_

25. Chapter 25

Anna told Albus the story she had heard.

"That's why I don't like Muggles very much," she said, scratching her hair with some distress, "the Muggles in this story are really terrible-but because the ones I came into contact with in reality are not so I hate it, so I feel that "The Tales of Beedle the Poet" is a terrible book of fairy tales—probably similar to the nursery rhymes of Mother Goose."

Albus raised his eyebrows, looking straight into Anna's eyes with blue eyes: "I'm sorry Anna, I didn't mean to question you-but are you sure you're talking about the story of "Wizards and Hopping Pots"? You're hearing something completely different."

One second, Anna was immersed in the azure sea-like eyes of the boy opposite, and the next second she was startled awake by the other's words.

"But, but—" Anna anxiously wanted to say something, but looking at the boy opposite, she felt that her story was so crude and ugly, as if saying one more sentence would be an insult to him.

She hates herself like this.

However, Albus stretched out his hand, and gently placed it on the back of her hand with some caution.He saw Anna staring blankly at their clasped hands but did not shake them off, so he boldly shook them.

"Don't be nervous, Anna." The boy's gentle voice and warm palms made Anna's heart beat violently, and she only felt that her heart was about to burst out of her chest.The girl stretched out her free hand to brush her hair, but failed.

She put down her hand in embarrassment, pretending nothing happened.

"I've heard that some of the pure-blood wizard families will replace it with a more terrifying story," Albus pretended not to care about her actions, which made Anna less embarrassed, "It's a pity that the people around me None of the purebloods seem to have heard the full story—"

Anna twitched the corner of her mouth: "Maybe it's the one I've heard of."

Albus raised his eyebrows slightly in surprise.

"My father's ancestral name is Black," Anna replied, "and my mother came from a pure-blood family in northern Europe. They both prefer black magic—"

Having said that, Anna stopped abruptly.

Sitting in front of her is the greatest white wizard a hundred years later, but she mentioned black magic in front of him?

"It really doesn't matter, Ana," Albus's soft voice whispered in her ear, "You don't use the Dark Arts, do you?"

No?

Anna twitched the corner of her mouth, but did not answer him.

Seeing Anna like this, Albus frowned, and changed the subject with a chuckle.

"Your pendant is very special - may I ask what it is?"

Anna's expression changed, and she stood up abruptly.

"Sorry, I'm not feeling well," she said bluntly, and turned to leave the Dumbledore's living room.

The next morning, as Anna was sitting with the Dumbledore family at breakfast, she announced her latest decision out of the blue.

"Because I need to go to Diagon Alley to buy something," Anna avoided Albus's thoughtful gaze, pretending not to see his frown, "so I want to leave here this afternoon and go to Diagon Alley." Lane, wait until the holidays are over and head straight to King's Cross. Thank you Mr and Mrs Dumbledore for your hospitality for so long, and—"

"You didn't tell me!" Arianna said with some dissatisfaction, startled Anna, and hurriedly looked at the angry little girl, "I want to go with you!"

"Calm down, Arianna," Mrs. Dumbledore seemed to understand her difficulties, and even helped her speak up, "Anna has her own things to do, so don't be willful to make trouble for others."

The girl with long brown hair looked at each other gratefully, but found that the lady who always looked serious didn't look at her at all.Although Ariana was a little inexplicable, but considering that Kendela usually looked too serious, she didn't think too much about it.

In the afternoon, Anna packed her luggage, said goodbye to Dumbledore's family, and flooed to the Leaky Cauldron in Diagon Alley.The current boss is not the Tom Anna knew, but a very kind old lady.Seeing that Anna was just a single little girl, she arranged her room in an inconspicuous corner and added a few more protective spells to her.

After thanking the old lady and taking the luggage into the room, Anna threw herself on the big soft bed and pulled out a thin necklace from her collar.

The pendant at the end of the necklace is a small thing in the shape of a brass-colored cauldron.There are many small uneven bumps on it, which look like uneven metal bubbles caused by failed production, and strange pimples growing on the crucible. They don't look good at all.

But it was Anna's necklace pendant.

That legendary story... Anna knew that the story of jumping the pot really existed.Because her necklace pendant is the legendary jumping pot.

After the son of the old wizard in the fairy tale died, the descendants of the old wizard began to slowly become poor.Although the cauldron is still there, the descendants of the old wizard are powerless to help their Muggle neighbours.Because the descendant didn't want the cauldron to get rusty and warty, he had to sell the cauldron—and the magical jumping pot became part of the Black family's collection.

Still later, Robert Hitchens got the jumping pot necklace handed down from Isla Blake Hitchens.Robert is a crazy man with a spirit of research. When he was living in Northern Europe to study the black magic, he accidentally undid the spell that the ancestors of the Black family put on the crucible, and had to use the black magic he had researched to The magic imprisoned the jumping pot again.

Because Anna's personality followed her father's, and in order to prevent Anna from unraveling the magic of jumping pot easily, what Robert told Anna was the story that was passed down in the pure-blooded family—but he changed the story against Ma. The part of the melon made Anna think that the jumping pot was some kind of black magic device.

He later separated from Anna's mother, Unity, and gave Anna the necklace - which Unity never knew existed.

Anna sat up abruptly.

Why did Albus Dumbledore "suddenly" notice her pendant?Had he really not noticed before?Why did he bring up the topic of her pendant when they brought up the story of the jumping pot? ——She hasn't forgotten what her mother told her about how Dumbledore defeated Grindelwald back then, such as the white handkerchief that fell from that side.

The doubts in her heart were getting bigger and bigger, and the brainwashing words her mother had said before made her extremely uneasy.

Anna got up from the bed, took out the "Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore" from her luggage, and clutched it tightly to her chest.

The necklace pendant collided with the hard cover of the book, making a muffled sound, but Anna didn't care at all.

She cared about Albus Dumbledore.

Is he a good guy?Did he ever become interested in the study of black magic?Did he do anything in pursuit of power?

——Has this Albus Dumbledore she knew ever lied to her?

She hugged the book tightly, closed her eyes and hesitated for a long time, then sat back at the desk in the Leaky Cauldron.

Anna opened the book.

Unexpectedly, this time, she did not time travel.And on the book with a gaudy cover, words slowly appeared line by line——
