Chapter 120 Conjecture about Horcruxes
Mrs. Longbottom and Neville were waiting here on purpose. ╰╮
Ten minutes ago, Neville seemed to have misunderstood what Kyle meant. Instead of going to the therapist, he went downstairs and started shouting that there were werewolves, and tried to get others to go to the second floor to help.
But no one believed what he said, even if they had just heard the noise upstairs.
Because werewolves do not appear during the day, this is the most basic common sense in the magic world.
Moreover, this is St. Mungo's, a place where talented people are born. Here, people with mental problems abound. Just twenty minutes ago, someone claimed that he had a dragon upstairs.
It's just a werewolf, nothing to make a fuss about.
In addition, the therapists did not believe this round-faced little fat man.
They were on the second floor entirely because of another person.
——The curly-haired intern therapist who showed Kyle the way. He was in the ward where the werewolf was at that time and witnessed the entire process of the werewolf's transformation with his own eyes.
But luckily, he was not bitten. Perhaps it was because the werewolf had just transformed and his mind was still confused, so he slapped him into the wall.
After he pulled himself out, he immediately contacted other colleagues in St. Mungo's unique way and told them about the werewolf.
This was the scene before. ஜ۩۞۩ஜஜ۩۞۩ஜ
On the other side, Mrs. Longbottom hurriedly found Neville after learning about the incident. After learning what happened from her grandson, the old lady immediately took Neville to thank him.
But they were a step late. When the two found Kyle, he happened to go to the sixth floor with the dean and Dumbledore.
Mrs. Longbottom simply took Neville and stood at the corner of the stairs until they came down.
Later, Mrs. Longbottom also invited Kyle to a ward on the fifth floor.
Neville's parents were there, lying on the hospital bed, staring blankly at Kyle.
"You saved Neville, and they want to express their gratitude to you."
Mrs. Longbottom turned to look at the hospital bed and said with a hint of trembling: "Frank, Alice, the child is here."
But their eyes were still lifeless, as if they had not heard Mrs. Longbottom's words.
"Don't mind, child." Mrs. Longbottom explained: "I can feel that they want to express their gratitude to you in person, but they just can't express it."
When Mrs. Longbottom was talking, Neville stood beside her, his head lowered, as if he was very interested in the tips of his toes.
But this behavior made Mrs. Longbottom very angry.
"Look up, Neville!" she said sternly: "You shouldn't be ashamed because of what happened to your parents, you should be proud!"
"I didn't..." Neville retorted, his voice small but firm.
Then Mrs. Longbottom looked at Kyle again, straightened her back, and said proudly: "They were tortured crazy by the Death Eaters using the Cruciatus Curse... The bereaved dogs wanted to find out where their master was, but they couldn't. Wrong idea, the Longbottom family will never compromise with dark wizards!"
"It's worthy of admiration..." Kyle was in awe.
"Same to you, kid."
Mrs. Longbottom said: "Being able to defeat a werewolf at such a young age is something that not many people can do.
I hope Neville can have such courage in the future, become an Auror after graduation, and restore the glory of the Longbottom family..."
She turned her gaze to Neville and suddenly frowned: "Straighten your back, Neville, I've told you many times, keep your back straight!"

After leaving the ward, Kyle could still clearly hear Mrs. Longbottom's voice scolding Neville.
He looked at Dean Sacia next to him and asked, "Can the injuries caused by the Cruciatus Curse be cured?"
"It's difficult. Any problem involving the soul is difficult to heal. That's true for werewolves and it's true for the Cruciatus Curse."
Dean Sacia thought for a while and said: "The Cruciatus Curse not only caused them physical injuries, but also the pain of tearing their souls apart.
The wizard's body is very fragile. It is like trying to piece together a broken mirror on a tight balloon. If you are not careful, the balloon will be punctured.
All we can do now is just put together the prototype of the mirror, and wait for a more effective method to come out while ensuring that the balloon does not burst. "
"Like wolfsbane potion?" Kyle said thoughtfully.
"That's right." Dean Sacia smiled: "What we are waiting for is the "wolfsbane potion" that can solve the Cruciatus Curse, and we have been working hard for it."
Kyle said no more and walked forward silently.
After mentioning broken souls, he suddenly thought of Horcruxes.
Yes, Horcrux...the most evil black magic item in the world invented by the despicable Herbo.
Kyle remembered that if you want to make a Horcrux, the first thing you have to do is to divide your soul through killing, and then put it into the Horcrux.
So what if the soul is in a split state from the beginning...can this step be omitted?
Just like the Longbottoms, their souls were tortured to pieces by the Cruciatus Curse, wouldn't they just meet the requirements for making Horcruxes?
Kyle was lost in thought.
Since you can't piece together a complete mirror on the balloon, wouldn't it be better to just take away the fragments?
A Horcrux is a very special thing. It is like an extra body, or a bridge, connecting those broken souls.
What's even more interesting is that once this kind of bridge is formed, each soul fragment will become relatively complete. This is why Voldemort still didn't go crazy even after six Horcruxes were destroyed.
It is precisely because of this characteristic that it allows a person to successfully achieve immortality.
If this is the case, can the broken souls of the Longbottoms be made into Horcruxes?
After breaking the soul into pieces, wouldn’t there be no need to think about those fragments anymore?
Of course, this is just an idea of Kyle's.
The problem now is that he has not read any books about Horcruxes, and his understanding of this aspect is limited to the superficial knowledge in his memory, and he has no idea whether this is feasible.
Kyle subconsciously glanced at Dumbledore not far away.
The other party noticed it quickly and gave him a confused look in return.
Kyle quickly turned his eyes aside.
Ask Dumbledore?
forget it. He estimated that as soon as he said the word "horcrux", the Elder Wand would be hammered into the wall, and he would be embarrassed if he couldn't pull it out.
Since you can't ask, you can only look for it yourself.
Kyle planned to go to the restricted book section to look for it after school started.
It doesn't matter if you can't find it, there will be a diary for next year.
As for the crown in the Room of Requirement... to be honest, Kyle wouldn't want to touch that thing if he could help it.
It was too dangerous and it wouldn't do him any good.
