Dumbledore listened carefully to their reports.
The two Aurors stood straight, looking very honorable, but a little panicked.
Dumbledore said: "So, you originally only found that Harry lied, and wanted to focus on tracking him.
But with McGonagall's reminder, you decided to ask Gress, and learned that Gress could find the whereabouts of the basilisk as soon as it came out."
The male Auror said: "Yes, the polygraph said he did not lie."
The female Auror also spoke: "Our original plan was to enter Hogwarts and try our best to build a good relationship with Gress and get first-hand information from him."
But at that time, no one thought that Hogwarts would have another petrified person so soon, and decided to close the school urgently.
They didn't expect that after just one night, the basilisk was found and killed while they were sleeping.
Dumbledore said calmly: "Being able to speak Parseltongue, being able to communicate with the basilisk, and being able to detect it the first time it came out, one of these alone doesn't mean much, but when several of them collide, it's not simple."
The male and female Aurors looked at each other, but they didn't hear any deep meaning from it.
Dumbledore continued to ask: "What is your impression of Gress?"
He added: "There is a piece of news that has not been announced to the public. Gress died in the Chamber of Secrets (sacrifice to the public), and I want to know more about this student."
The male and female Aurors were silent for a while after hearing this.
Sacrifice, such a heavy word.
The female Auror said: "At first, he didn't leave a good impression on me. He was very arrogant and didn't respect Professor McGonagall at all. Later, he even suggested to talk to him alone next time and let Professor Snape come."
The male Auror also said: "I sympathize with his experience, but from the student's perspective, he is not a good student. He has no awe of the professor. I even think he was a little provocative to Professor McGonagall at that time."
Dumbledore said softly: "He has never liked McGonagall..."
"By the way, there is also Lin Xia. You first found Lin Xia. Did she lie?"
"No lie, Lin Xia obviously does not have other abilities. Harry and Grace's perception is better than hers."
...
In the manor.
When Lin Xia was practicing "Slytherin Soul Tempering Method", he found that visualizing the flying giant python did not affect the practice of "Nine Heavens Mysterious Yang Secret Records·Furnace".
It may be because of the two systems, so they do not affect each other.
Lin Xia simply put the two methods together for practice.
Practicing archery during the day and practicing at night, Lin Xia's daily life in the manor became extremely regular again.
After spending the third day so peacefully, during the day, the fate compass in her mind suddenly turned and stopped at the "Fuji" column.
"Fuji" is the category that Lin Xia draws most often, and she can often get a lot of information from "Fuji".
Many more fragments of pictures suddenly appeared in her mind.
Lin Xia frowned slightly, "These fragments..."
They are nothing else, but all of them are fragments of her practicing archery in the manor during the day!
Why would the fate compass give such a prompt?
It was not until the last fragment of the picture flashed that Lin Xia understood the reminder of the fate compass.
—— Anier was hiding around the manor, secretly spying on her!
In the last fragment of the picture, Anier was leaning against a tree, staring ahead.
And this tree, Lin Xia had taken care of it when she returned to the manor on the first day of the holiday!
Lin Xia frowned, Anier's obsession with "Castle in the Sky" was too deep.
Perhaps considering that Malfoy Manor was not far from her home, Annie just observed quietly and did not take action immediately.
