The Little Superman of Hogwarts - Chapter 062 [Voldemort Ran Away!]

After telling Professors Snape and McGonagall about Quirrell's situation, they both expressed disbelief.

Klee shrugged, expressing helplessness, and said, "That's the answer."

At this moment, Dumbledore smiled and said, "Young man, you are really too confident!"

Klee felt something was off; Dumbledore's words had a hidden meaning!

"Then why don't we go verify it now? How about it?" Professor McGonagall suggested.

"Of course!" Klee readily agreed, but then he asked, "Shall we verify it through legal means, or illegal means?"

"What are legal means? What are illegal means?" Professor McGonagall asked, puzzled.

"Legal means, naturally, would be the headmaster issuing an order, such as stipulating that, in order to maintain the students' health and hygiene, all teachers must take a bath once a month... Then, Snape and the headmaster could take the opportunity to make Professor Quirrell strip naked and see what his occiput actually looks like. Of course, if Professor McGonagall, you want to see it too, I think that's no problem!" Klee said playfully at the end.

"Your mouth is truly disgusting!" Professor McGonagall rolled her eyes. "Then what are the illegal means?"

"When Professor Quirrell is alone, I'll find a chance to knock him out with a club, and that's it!" Klee explained simply.

Professor McGonagall covered her forehead, unable to bear to watch; was this student perhaps reincarnated from the underworld? What was even more infuriating was that this was her own student!

"I think illegal means are more interesting, aren't they?" Dumbledore said playfully, sharing a knowing look with Klee, who smiled in response.

"Headmaster!" Professor McGonagall protested sternly.

"I just think it's interesting; perhaps we can take a simpler approach!" Dumbledore smiled. "This weekend, I will hold an outdoor barbecue party, inviting all the professors. During the barbecue, Minerva, you can blow on the fire with a fan, and accidentally blow off his hat."

And so it was decided. Dumbledore went to invite all the professors, McGonagall prepared some magical tools to ensure the hat would fall off at that moment, and Snape would prepare some potions in case it really was Voldemort, as some protective potions would be needed.

Everything was perfect. All the professors went to the evening's dinner party. Dumbledore hosted the dinner, and the teachers sang loudly next to the Forbidden Forest.

Until, around seven o'clock, a group of teachers around the campfire were suddenly blown over by a gust of wind...

Professor Quirrell's hat was also blown off...

Klee was watching the campfire and barbecue from afar at the time. His super vision clearly showed the back of Quirrell's head—there was nothing there!

Klee was shocked. What was going on?! Where was the big Voldemort?

He instantly remembered Dumbledore's words; that old fox must already know something!

The next day, when Professor McGonagall and Snape expressed disappointment to Klee, Klee solemnly stated, "Why not put the Philosopher's Stone back in the Mirror of Erised."

In the headmaster's office.

Professor McGonagall asked Dumbledore, "There was no trace of Voldemort on Professor Quirrell's neck, not even the mark of a Death Eater. Is Klee lying?"

"What you saw with your own eyes is also the truth, but what Klee said is also the truth! Just like I said before, Klee is too confident," Dumbledore explained.

==========

Yes, Klee was too confident!

Klee recalled what he had done and suddenly realized a serious problem—the butterfly effect.

He had previously interrogated Quirrell and Voldemort, so how could Voldemort still be stuck to Quirrell's back waiting to die as in the original story?

Voldemort must have already transferred away!

Klee now realized that following the plot of the original book or movie world was already the wrong approach; one change affects the whole situation!

Although Voldemort's mind wasn't very clear, he wasn't stupid! The death of the unicorn was originally something that would happen in the second semester, but now it was four months earlier.

"Could it be that Voldemort really ran away?" Klee felt that the key now was still the Philosopher's Stone; without the help of the Philosopher's Stone, Voldemort couldn't be resurrected, which meant that even if he left Hogwarts, he would come back.

Because Voldemort was already somewhat mentally unstable; he had become a fanatic!

In addition, Harry Potter was also at Hogwarts; these two were destined nemeses, and Voldemort would return to Hogwarts no matter what.

Klee suddenly understood why Dumbledore was so calm; it was the composure that came from manipulating the chessboard for many years and the advanced thinking that could see through Voldemort's thoughts at a glance.

"Oh! So, this is one of the reasons Dumbledore is cultivating Harry Potter. Dumbledore will definitely continue to play out this first-year drama..." Klee guessed Dumbledore's thoughts.

==========

The next day was a Sunday. Hermione came to find Klee early in the morning to go to the library together, but Klee took Hermione's small hand and led her to the eighth floor.

"What is this place?" Hermione asked, puzzled. She was a little uneasy; she was afraid Klee would really do something, but she was also afraid Klee wouldn't do anything.

"The Room of Requirement!" Klee explained.

"This is a magical place. Let me show you." Klee stood at one end of the corridor and muttered, "I need a library to practice spells, I need a library to practice spells..."

When Klee turned back and forth for the third time, Klee pulled open the tapestry on the wall, and a door leaped out!

Klee pushed open the door and motioned for Hermione to come in: "This is a good place!"

As soon as Hermione entered the room, she saw tens of thousands of neat, high bookshelves on the right, with neat magic books placed on them. On the left was a huge space with various dummies and various scenes, such as doors or walls.

"What is this place?!" Hermione was stunned as she walked in.

"The Room of Requirement. The origin of this thing can no longer be investigated. It is said that it was created jointly by the four founders of Hogwarts at the time. Some people say that this Room of Requirement was actually built by goblins during the Goblin Wars, but I think this room is almost an alchemical achievement that surpasses the Philosopher's Stone. It must have been built by the greatest alchemist, and its history even predates Hogwarts, but Ravenclaw simply took it over and used it as an accessory," Klee explained.

"In the future, you can come here every day. It's much quieter than the library, and there are many things you wouldn't expect. For example, the Hogwarts library doesn't even have a single Muggle book, but the bookshelves here are filled with Muggle books—if it weren't for the fact that the Room of Requirement can't exceed the limits of the Earth, I would even want to build a Star Wars spaceship to play with." Klee shrugged. "I remember I once took you to see the Star Wars series of movies."

"Is that area over there for practicing spells?" Hermione said in surprise.

"Of course! This is also the main reason I brought you here..."
