Daily Life at Hogwarts Chapter 1152: Location of the locket

In the early morning, the bright sun shines through the window and reflects on the marble floor of the principal's office.

Dumbledore, who stayed up late last night, was awake, sitting behind his desk, enjoying morning tea prepared by the house-elf while reading the latest issue of Transfiguration of the Day.

Since Albert stopped contributing to the magazine, Transfiguration Today has had very few eye-catching articles.

In the September issue of Transfiguration Today, there were even a few round-up articles that really disappointed Dumbledore.

Putting down the teacup, Dumbledore picked up the latest issue of the newspaper that the house-elf had kept in the corner of his desk.

Unfortunately, there is nothing in the newspapers worthy of his attention, and the content of the headlines makes his good mood in the early morning disappear.

Yesterday, two more "dark wizards" were sentenced to death by the Wizengamore court.

Honestly, Dumbledore didn't like the new minister's murderous style, and even though Scrimgeour was willing to take his advice on some matters, when it came to condemning the "horrific" dark wizard to death, But he always has his own perseverance and never gives up.

"The Ministry of Magic has always used Veritaserum to interrogate prisoners. We try not to wrong any good person, but we will never spare any heinous prisoner."

Dumbledore put down the paper and recalled an unpleasant memory of his last conversation with Scrimgeour about the execution of a prisoner.

Scrimgeour's toughness on this matter is surprising, and Scrimgeour never shies away from the specifics.

In fact, even the staff at the Wizengamore Court and even the higher-ups at the Ministry of Magic knew why.

"Even if the Ministry of Magic continues to strengthen the defense of Azkaban Prison, we will never be able to guard against You-Know-Who."

Dumbledore remembers Scrimgeour's helpless expression in Wizengamore Court when he spoke about it.

"Unless, let Dumbledore go to Azkaban to be the warden, but I think the Hogwarts kids are more important than these bastards."

"It's better to give these wicked **** a chance to do bad things again, and let them never have the opportunity to hurt other innocent people. This is the real responsibility of the entire magical world."

"We're at war, don't be lenient with the enemy unless you want to kill those who fought bravely on the front lines."

Since that day, the Wizengamore Court has not hesitated to sentence prisoners who should have been sentenced to life in prison.

Even Dumbledore couldn't refute Scrimgeour because he was equally aware of the grim fact that Voldemort was sure to take Azkaban prison.

If the Aurors took a lot of sacrifices to get them into prison, and they were not punished for it, but instead were released by Voldemort, it would undoubtedly be a shame to the brave warriors who sacrificed their lives in the capture.

Perfect speech!

Decisive and bold.

Scrimgeour is a hero to countless people, the best person to lead the wizarding world through the current difficulties.

However, intuition tells Dumbledore that this is only superficial.

Something must have happened to cause Scrimgeour to put aside all his concerns and fight the forces of darkness.

Dumbledore suspects that this has something to do with Albert, and he is curious about what Albert said to Scrimgeour.

It wasn't until last night that Dumbledore had the answer.

"Mr. Anderson told me that I was going to die in office, murdered by You-Know-Who, and he advised me to give up the confrontation or prepare for a desperate fight."

Scrimgeour calmly said this cruel answer

Back then, Dumbledore knew everything.

He dared to say that Albert definitely told Scrimgeour on purpose.

As for lying, it's obviously unlikely.

The reason is not difficult to guess:

The fact that the Death Eaters led someone to try to kill Albert at his wedding really annoyed Albert.

Although Albert did not kill anyone that day, with the help of the Ministry of Magic, the dark wizards who were caught were executed one by one.

This trial, which lasted for over a month, was undoubtedly intentional for people to see, as if to tell them: This is your fate.

Block?

Clearly not possible.

Because there is no evidence at all.

Scrimgeour wouldn't tolerate it either, he slaughtered Dark Wizards so frantically in order to weaken Voldemort as much as possible.

Dumbledore could not be sure if Scrimgeour knew about his dying, but he knew that Scrimgeour was trying to give himself a chance.

Minimizing Voldemort's help as much as possible, the lonely Dark Lord is not as scary as he imagined.

"Divination?"

Dumbledore took out his pocket watch and looked at the time. It was almost nine o'clock.

That person should be here soon.

Not long after, there was a knock on the door outside the principal's office.

"Come in!"

The door is pushed open and Albert enters from outside.

"Sit here." Dumbledore asked with a smile, "What are you going to drink?"

"Milk tea."

A cup of steaming milk tea appeared in front of Albert out of thin air.

"Just tell me if you have something," Albert sipped his milk tea, "I'll make an appointment with someone else later."

"It looks like you've been very busy lately."

Dumbledore added a tablespoon of honey to his cup of milk tea, stirred it slowly with a spoon, and took a sip, seemingly enjoying it.

"No, I just happened to have something to do today." Albert also added some honey to the glass, "I've been writing a memoir to the LeMay couple recently."

"Memoirs?" Dumbledore frowned slightly.

"Yes, if you need, I can also write a copy for you." Albert took another sip of milk tea.

"I shouldn't need that kind of thing." Dumbledore shrugged, "I'd rather you help me divination the exact location of the Slytherin locket."

"You haven't found it yet?"

"Not found, Slytherin's locket disappeared after Sirius killed the house-elf, and I suspect it is no longer in Sirius' house."

After speaking, Dumbledore took Albert to the cabinet where the Pensieve was placed, took out a vial from the cabinet, and poured the swirling memory into the Pensieve.

A picture soon appeared in the Pensieve, a crimson velvet cushion on which lay a heavy gold locket.

"This is Slytherin's locket," Dumbledore introduced to Albert.

"The mysterious man was really handsome when he was young." Albert looked at the handsome young man next to him, and suddenly asked, "Is he like this because of the manufacture of Horcruxes?"

"Your focus is really surprising." Dumbledore raised his eyebrows slightly, not expecting that Albert would suddenly mention Tom's appearance.

"After all, the appearance of the mysterious man is really impressive."

"This should be because Voldemort has made many crazy attempts on himself in pursuit of his eternal power."

"I thought it was because of the division of souls."

"That's really crazy," Dumbledore said softly, "I've always suspected that what he's become now has something to do with dividing his soul, and the aftermath of the abuse of black magic has been affecting Voldemort~IndoMTL.com~you Don't worry about me being tempted by darkness." Albert's tone was full of disgust, "I'm not interested in that thing."

"I know, but... maybe, you can try to read the Slytherin locket," Dumbledore added.

"I'm not sure I'll be able to find it, but I can try." Albert returned to his desk and began to use the crystal ball that Dumbledore had prepared in advance to predict the location of Slytherin's locket.

After Albert's hand touched the crystal ball, the white mist inside quickly spun, and a suitcase came into view.

"I see, I probably know what's going on!" Dumbledore looked at the suitcase in the crystal ball and said with slightly narrowed eyes.

"This is great news."

Albert naturally guessed who took Slytherin's locket.

"If that's the case, then I'll go first." Albert got up and prepared to leave, "Just give me those notes after you've sorted them out."

"Wait, Albert."

"Anything else?" Albert stopped, turned his head and asked.

"Malfoy Manor was burned down a while ago."

"I just gave the Malfoys a very impressive warning." Albert did not intend to deny that he had burned the Malfoy Manor, and said softly, "I am not you, and I am not so forgiving to those who want to kill me. Generous."

"Mr. Malfoy plays a very important role in my plan," Dumbledore said suddenly.

"Oh, are you going to let him kill you?"

"Looks like you've guessed part of the plan." Dumbledore shrugged nonchalantly.

"When you die, I will remember to help you write this memoir."
