Hogwarts Mysterious Man Resurrected

Chapter 43: Conversation in the principal’s office



As soon as he entered the office, Snape's paralyzed face instantly turned into a look of rage.

"Why stop me, Dumbledore."

"You know it well"

"Don't worry, Severus. Nothing will happen."

Professor Dumbledore looked at his phoenix thoughtfully.

"Can I trust you Severus."

"What are you talking about?"

Snape said with an angry smile. "If you don't believe me, why call me here."

"This is my fault, Severus."

"Perhaps we should prepare early, and you will protect the child's safety."

"Severus"

Dumbledore looked at him, his eyes were extremely deep, as if there was a starry sky hidden deep in them.

Snape fell silent, his eyes were complicated, and the indifferent expression appeared on his face again.

Like a protective layer, Snape didn't want others to see his true self.

Even if this person is Dumbledore who knows him very well.

"I will, I will always protect him."

He said word by word, his tone full of affirmation.

Dumbledore, who knew his past, sighed.

Turning around and walking to the shelf nearby, he looked at his phoenix and said pointedly.

“I think we’re going to have a special student this semester.”

"Well" Snape didn't understand what Dumbledore said.

"What did you say"

Dumbledore shook his head and did not repeat what he just said.

Instead, jump to another topic.

"If he really comes back, I hope you can come back to him and wait quietly."

"I know." Snape looked at Dumbledore with complicated eyes.

He knew if that person really came back.

Then he would go to him and inquire about the key information.

Originally, Snape always thought that person would never come back.

But tonight, what Harry and the others said shattered the illusion in Snape's heart.

He knew it was time for his mission to begin.

No matter what happens, no matter what the future holds, he will use his own life to protect her child.

To make up for the mistakes he made back then.

"That's fine, but I still ask you to promise me."

Dumbledore said pleadingly. At this moment, he seemed like a real lonely old man.

I kept silently thinking about some things and kept giving instructions.

"No matter what happens, we must protect him."

"I know." Snape responded silently. He knew what to do without Dumbledore having to say it.

"That's great." Dumbledore regained his look of a lonely old man and returned to his normal and harmonious look, with the light of wisdom in his eyes.

"Want some?" He picked up a pile of cockroaches in his hand and looked at Snape with a smile.

"No, I have to go back and do my experiments." Snape looked at the things in Dumbledore's hands with great disgust, and turned around and left without hesitation.

Now that the conversation was over, it was time for him to make some preparations.

Regardless of whether what Harry said was true or not.

Snape had the idea of ​​making plans in advance.

After Snape left, Dumbledore kept looking at his phoenix.

The eyes were deep and terrifying, with a glint of light flashing from time to time.

After a long time, he withdrew his gaze.

Then he looked in a certain direction and said nothing for a long time.

"Thank you this time, Fox."

Dumbledore took out a handful of dried fish and fed it little by little.

Fox shouted from time to time, while Dumbledore pretended to listen carefully, nodding from time to time, as if he understood Fox's words.

Finally, Dumbledore sat in his chair, frowning and thinking about something.

Ever since Harry entered school, more and more strange things have happened throughout Hogwarts.

Except for his shadow in the events last semester, he had no news at all about the diary incident that happened this semester.

For Dumbledore, this was not a good thing.

This proves that his current protection of Harry may not be as strong as imagined.

Hogwarts, which is said to be the safest in the world, is not that safe.

But it was impossible to drive Harry home just because he wanted to protect him.

If that person really wants to come back, then Harry who has not mastered his own magical ability in the future will definitely not be his opponent.

Only protecting Harry during this period of time and giving him enough time to grow up is the most important thing for him to do at the moment.

Dumbledore could feel his body getting older and his time might be running out.

The Philosopher's Stone that was most likely to be obtained by him was also destroyed last year.

I hope Harry can grow up as soon as possible.

Dumbledore thought in his heart.

The next afternoon, the three Harrys were telling Dumbledore what they knew in the principal's office.

"That's what happened, Professor Dumbledore." Harry said from the side. "It all started with the diary that Ginny gave to Hermione, but she took it back for some reason."

"Then that's what we said."

Dumbledore was thoughtful and looked at the three Harrys with a smile.

"So that's it. Can you show me this diary?"

The three of Harry looked at each other, and Hermione stood up and said.

"Sorry, Professor. We don't know where that diary went."

"We were in a hurry to bring Ginny back later, so we didn't take a closer look."

It was obvious that Hermione was very nervous, and Dumbledore didn't doubt her.

He sighed with great pity, "It's okay, I just have a guess, but I can't believe it."

"So I want to ask you to see the diary. Since you don't have it, forget it."

Seeing Dumbledore shaking his head, Hermione almost couldn't help but take out the diary in her hand.

But in the end she endured it, and she didn't know why she hid the diary.

It was like there was a voice inside her that was bewitching her.

It’s just that this time I’m deceiving myself.

"That's right, kids."

"If you have time, would you mind taking me, an old man, to see the secret room?"

Dumbledore smiled at the three Harrys. The smile on his face made them less nervous about coming here.

The three of them looked at each other and said in unison.

"No problem, Professor Dumbledore."
