Cards for them? "

Dolores took it over and saw that it was Dumbledore's chocolate frog card, which introduced his fame and contributions, and involved two other people, one was the dark wizard Grindel who was defeated by him in [-]. Waugh, one is Nicole Flamel, who collaborated with him on alchemy.

"Nicole Flamel!" Dolores was recalled by the name, and couldn't help grabbing Cara's hand excitedly: "Carla, next year is 1992, right?"

"Of course!" Cara was quite speechless, not understanding why she made such a fuss about such a trivial matter: "It's almost Christmas now, it's still 1991, but it will be 1992 soon."

"It's 1992, right now..." Dolores' complexion changed suddenly, and then she said to Cara with a sorry face: "Carla, I have to go home this Christmas!"

"Ah? Why so suddenly?" Kara pouted unhappily: "We have already discussed it, why did you change your mind again!"

"I just remembered an important thing. If I wait until next year, it may not be too late."

"What's so urgent?"

"Sorry, Kara, it's a private matter!"

"Okay, Dolly, I won't ask any more. Then go to the prefect, she probably hasn't handed in the signature form for staying in school."

Dolores had mixed feelings when she walked out of the common room.Being friends with Kara is one of her efforts to adjust her mentality and integrate into her new life.She also has a sincere heart for this girl's friendship; but this time, no matter how guilty she is for breaking the appointment, she can't back down.

Because it is related to a masterpiece of alchemy that will soon be extinct from the world-the Philosopher's Stone.

Dolores' concern for the Philosopher's Stone originated from her previous life.It was her [-]th birthday party, her adopted son invited all the descendants of her deceased colleagues and acquaintances, and there was a big crowd to celebrate her rare longevity.Among them, a new alchemist asked half jokingly and half curiously, whether she drank the Elixir of Life brewed from the Philosopher's Stone as the reason why she lived a long and strong life.

At that time, she denied it with a smile and convinced everyone present, but the seeds of doubt were planted in her heart instead, because she knew very well that neither of her parents' families had longevity genes, and she herself was not very keen on health preservation.So she began to study the Philosopher's Stone by herself, partly out of curiosity, and partly to pass the long retirement time after retirement.

Relying on the contacts and reputation accumulated through her age, she successively obtained permission to enter St. Mungo's and the library of the Ministry of Magic. All official materials related to the Philosopher's Stone in Britain for thousands of years have been opened to her.But she didn't want to make the Philosopher's Stone, so she only needed to know the history, which was enough for her to rule out the possibility that she accidentally drank the elixir without knowing it.

However, I don't want to make it, but I have no intention of owning it, not because I don't want to see it with my own eyes.She was lucky enough to go back to the past, and it was rare to remember the year before the Sage's Stone was destroyed. It would be a pity to miss it again.Now that Nicole Flamel has disclosed the information that he owns the Philosopher's Stone, this may prove that a visit for the purpose of observing the Philosopher's Stone is not considered presumptuous.

Taking the Hogwarts Express home, her father's attitude was still indifferent, but it also provided her with a high degree of freedom.That night, she owled a letter to Nicole Flamel, signed with her initials.

The prerequisite for the successful delivery of the owl is that the name of the recipient is complete and unique, or the location of the recipient is as detailed as the house number.She sent a letter to Nicole Flamel, which fits the first situation, after all, she does not know where the Lemays live in Devon; Nicole Flamel wrote back to her, and the second situation applies, she concealed identities, but gave the address of an abandoned barn just outside the village where the Murrays lived.

Every evening after that, Dolores went to the barn for a walk to see if any letters had been thrown in by the owls.Three days later, she finally picked up a thick brown envelope and got a reply that made her uneasy.

Nicole Flamel said that the Philosopher's Stone is not in his hands now, and he lent it to a friend. If she is not in a hurry and is willing to wait, then his friend will arrange for her by the end of June next year at the latest.

Dolores pondered over the words of the letter all the way home as she plodded home.It doesn't take much clever logical deduction, she intuitively thinks that the friend who can borrow the Philosopher's Stone from Nicole LeMay is Dumbledore; when she contacts Harry Potter, she suddenly asks Nicole LeMay May's concern, she has reason to believe that Dumbledore put the Philosopher's Stone in Hogwarts Castle, and its guard, or one of the guards, was the same one that hurt Severus and was revenged by her. three-headed dog.

So, Voldemort, who is supposed to be preparing for a comeback by now, was drawn to Harry Potter by the Philosopher's Stone?Did Nicole Flamel feel that he couldn't protect the Philosopher's Stone and handed it over to Dumbledore for safekeeping, or did Dumbledore use it as bait to lure the lurking poisonous snake out of the cave?

Dolores didn't know the answer, or she forbade herself to continue thinking deeply before making a guess.All in all, things related to the Philosopher's Stone are muddy waters, and she shouldn't mess around.She had a hunch that it might be too late. The Philosopher's Stone was now more like a touchstone in Dumbledore's eyes. Anyone who expressed interest in it was suspected of Voldemort's accomplice.

Her premonition came true the next day.Standing on her patio this morning, she watched an owl land with an envelope in its mouth toward the barn, and then fly away with an empty beak.She didn't dare to check it immediately, so she could only wait until the dead of night, when she picked up the letter by herself with an oil lamp.

The letter was still written by Nicole Flamel.This time he confessed that the friend mentioned in his last letter was Dumbledore, and promised on his behalf that she could directly contact Dumbledore and even meet him next summer, and he would support all of Dumbledore's decisions.Of course, for safety reasons, although they will not explore her identity or disturb her life, Dumbledore will prepare some small tests in advance to ensure that the Philosopher's Stone will not become a tool for evil.

Now Dolores is in a dilemma.If she agrees, then she will face Dumbledore in the future. According to the original plan, Dumbledore will still recognize her when she becomes an adult with the Aging Potion; if she refuses, it simply implies that she is guilty of guilt , Maybe Dumbledore will come to the door to check in two days.

Dolores weighed it over and over for a whole week, and finally replied to Nicole Flamel before returning to school.She still agreed with his arrangement, and Xia Tian was also very suitable for her, the only additional requirement was that when she was free, she would take the initiative to contact them, in case the mailing address changed.

After the matter was finalized, she began to prepare secretly.If you want to change your image to show people, you are not able to use the shape-shifting technique, and you can't use age-increasing potions, so you only have Polyjuice Potion as an option.The duration of the compound decoction's efficacy is directly proportional to the quality of the medicine itself. She knows that she is not skilled enough, so the only way is to order from a pharmacy.

Count down the pharmacies in the British wizarding world. She dare not provoke the one run by the Malfoy family. The Muzhuo pharmacy only sells products suitable for magical creatures. Mr. Mupeper’s pharmacy has two locations, one in Diagon Alley and one in Overturn Lane, in addition to equipment and raw materials, one only sells basic medicines, and the other provides certain forbidden/drugs, which also do not meet her psychological expectations. In the end, the remaining Slug and Ziggs pharmacies can give it a try.

The medical field has a relatively complete secrecy system. For example, it is impossible for the maker and user of the potion to know each other through an intermediary. So this time Dolores can return to Hogwarts Castle and hire the owl in the West Tower to bring a A deposit to place an order.

The reply from Slugger and Ziggs pharmacy was very fast. The owner said that although there was no stock in the store, he would arrange for the pharmacist to start brewing it as soon as possible, and asked her to wait patiently for at least a month.At the same time, the other party also reminded her that because she specified that she required top quality, then they might ask the potion master who has a cooperative relationship with the pharmacy to help. At that time, based on the increase in labor costs, the total price of the pharmacy would also be adjusted accordingly.

Dolores wrote back to express her understanding, how could the potion master be worth the same as an ordinary pharmacist.The pharmacy asked her to wait for a month, which happened to be the cooking time of the compound decoction, and it could not be reduced no matter what.Putting this item on the memo, no longer thinking about it day and night, she returned to student life.

Compound decoction ([-])

One and a half months later, on the Hufflepuff table in the morning, Dolores received the potion and the bill.After returning to the dormitory, she unpacked the package and held the medicine bottle under the candlelight to observe carefully.

Before adding the materials of the transformed object, the compound decoction looks viscous and dirty like mud, but just like in the ceramic industry, the mud is also graded, and the potion that uses mud as an analogy can also be intuitively distinguished.The bottle in her hand is rich in color and even in texture. If it is shaken gently, it will produce abundant bubbles, as if it contains a lot of vitality. These are all signs of high-quality products, and the one-time drug effect lasts at least six hours.

Dolores made up the balance with great satisfaction, and put the potion in the closet with great care.It won't be a big problem who will become at that time, just pick a hair from the Muggles, and Dumbledore's eyes can be temporarily blinded.

Easter passed quickly, and the much-anticipated Harry Potter participated in the Quidditch match for the second time, and the Gryffindor team faced the Hufflepuff team.This time Dolores also went to watch the game, cheering for the academy was secondary, the important thing was that Severus didn't know why
