Chapter 757

"As soon as I heard the news of your return, I hurried back. "

In the familiar Headmaster's room, Dumbledore sat in his high-backed chair, and although his glasses were a little reflective, Solim could clearly feel Dumbledore's gaze.

"It seems...... You've been through a lot in your time away from Hogwarts. "

If this sentence had been put in the original, Solim would have been treated as a non-nutritious cutscene, and it would have been over after listening to it. But now this sentence sounds like it is suggesting something.

"That's true. Solim honestly sat down across from Dumbledore.

"And what is it for this time?"

In the past, Dumbledore always liked to talk about something else before getting down to business, and then gradually turned the conversation to the key issues, but this time it was different, he went straight to the point.

Since Dumbledore was so direct, Solim wouldn't have gone around in circles.

"Riddle. "

"Oh?"

"My father, he was interested in Riddle's things. He wanted to be able to see the scene of soul fusion...... If the principal agrees, he will come and negotiate the conditions himself. "

"Your father, is it just your father?" Dumbledore's knuckles tapped on the table, "It's a bit unexpected. "

"May I ask, is he representing him personally, or is he representing your family?"

(I knew that this question could not be avoided)

Solim sighed in his heart and said honestly: "He can only represent him personally. "

"In that case, I don't think there's any need to meet. Dumbledore said, "There should be a limit to what he can do to help." "

For Dumbledore's refusal, Solim was mentally prepared.

"So," Dumbledore looked down at Solim slightly, "and you didn't tell the elders of your family about it?"

"It's obvious. "

Dumbledore smiled, as if he thought things were interesting.

"Tom, he's pretty sure you're going to tell the elders of your family about him, can you tell me about it, what made you not do it?"

"I think maybe it's because I didn't have time. Solim gave a reason that even Goyle and Crabbe wouldn't believe.

To add to the effect, Solim added: "I took a leave of absence within a few days of that conversation. This kind of thing needs to be carefully considered, you say, Headmaster?"

"Ogle. Selwyn is indeed a rare young wizard, and if he is given enough time, he will surely achieve a great ......"

"But?" Solim tilted his head.

He didn't take that step after all, so I have doubts about his abilities. "

"With all due respect, Headmaster. Solim said, "Do you expect only help in terms of combat power, and do you think that the family behind me will help to deal with the Dark Lord once and for all?"

"Wouldn't it be? To put it mildly, the Presbyterian Council has always been free to Voldemort, except for his limited range of movement, mainly because of me. "

Dumbledore fiddled with the ring in his hand, his tone as always:

"It's in everyone's interest to settle it as soon as possible, I know what you're looking at most, this chaotic situation is not in the interest of the Presbyterian Church, and those people must have been waiting a little impatiently. "

"Headmaster, do you know about the Hazard Placement Committee, and its subordinate bodies?" said Solim, suddenly, with an unrelated question.

"I've heard a little. "

The Danger Placement Committee is completely separated from ordinary wizarding society, and the existence of such an institution has nothing to do with the general public, so unless it is a wizard in the system, there is no news about it from the outside world. It's good that Dumbledore can "hear a little", as far as understanding ...... Solim thought it was impossible, and even Dumbledore wouldn't waste his energy and time on something that had nothing to do with his goal.

"My two grandfathers, Lesotho and Bred, were in charge of the department. The Dangerous Settlement Committee administers all the seals in Europe. However, the time is nearing to change - it will not be long before these two institutions are no longer under the jurisdiction of our Selwyn. "

So far, what Solim said had nothing to do with Riddle's, but Dumbledore listened patiently.

"If Riddle's matter had been known to those old men in our family, they would indeed have agreed to some conditions to get the opportunity to watch the soul merge, but ...... They wouldn't go out of their way to get rid of the Dark Lord—I'm sure of that. "

"Please keep talking. "

"They're going to capture the Dark Lord - it's really not a difficult thing for the old men in our house. "

There is an immortal wizard in the family, and dealing with Voldemort, a great wizard with an incomplete soul is naturally handy, as long as Cadmus is willing to pull down his face and take action personally, Voldemort is not a problem at all. And when rounding up Voldemort, you can also take the opportunity to consume some of the eyeliner of other families who don't deal with Selwyn in the committee.

"I guess a sealed Dark Lord shouldn't be your ultimate goal, right?"

Dumbledore didn't speak, he was thinking about what Solim was saying. Solim said something he didn't understand.

"Besides, the sealed Dark Lord will definitely run out - those old men in the family will make sure of this, just to dig a hole for the next family to manage the dangerous settlement committee. Headmaster, if you really know anything about us families, you should know that this is not alarmist. "

"It is more important to fight against opponents at the same level as oneself than the certain benefits brought by stabilizing the order. "

The matter of the Dangerous Settlement Committee was a rhetoric that Solim had been thinking about for a long time, in order to make Dumbledore dismiss his intention of contacting the Selwyns.

"So, Headmaster," Solim spread his hands, "if you really want to settle the Dark Lord once and for all, don't think about connecting with a family like ours. When it came to the Dark Lord, the old men thought more about using him than destroying him. "

Dumbledore was still silent, and unlike before, his brow furrowed this time.

Dumbledore knew what Solim said, because he had also dealt with families like Selwyn, so he naturally knew what these top wizarding families valued.

Dumbledore suddenly smiled and said to Solim, "I have to say, this is very interesting in your words. Before coming here, you must have put in a lot of effort. "

"And what do you mean, Headmaster?"

"Then ...... See you. Dumbledore stood up, "Hopefully we can find a time when both sides have free time." "
