The platinum team had points deducted for no apparent reason, and was very unhappy.
But this is a reserved item for Potions class after all.
No matter how uncomfortable it is, I'm getting used to it.
Anyway, no matter how many college points are deducted, they will be added back.
As expected, it didn't take long for Lily and Sally to add points to Gryffindor respectively.
This subtraction and one addition actually increased the score.
Harry wanted to roll his eyes at the situation.
But he dared not.
Who knows if Snape will continue to go crazy and deduct points from them.
This potions class ended amidst the frustration of the platinum combination.
Snape, who had completed today's lecture tasks, assigned homework according to the previous plan.
After saying goodbye to Sister Lily, he left quickly.
Because the plan included meeting Dumbledore.
Snape modified it slightly and went to visit Dumbledore first.
Dumbledore lives in a valley.
It is said that that was his residence when he was young.
Many things have happened here.
For example, playing with his younger brothers and sisters, or meeting and falling in love with his boyfriend.
As a 'young man', Snape didn't know whether those rumors were true.
After all, that was decades ago.
He wasn't born yet at that time.
He didn't care if it was true or not, as long as Dumbledore lived here, that would be fine.
It was a multi-story cottage.
From a distance, the hut is covered in green plants, like a tree house.
Snape went straight to the hut door and knocked.
After a while, a voice came from the door.
"Who?"
Following the inquiry, the door opened.
Dumbledore's old face appeared behind the door.
"Oh, it's Severus."
"Yes, it's me." Snape nodded.
"Why did you think of coming to see me, an old man?" Dumbledore opened the door and motioned for Snape to come in, "I heard that you are very busy."
This was an interesting statement, and Snape immediately understood the deeper meaning.
It's just that Snape is a little out of control and doesn't contact his former headmaster.
Like a kite with its string broken.
Don't know if it is reliable or not.
"I was a little busy." Snape took out a notebook from his arms, "It took me a lot of effort to find this thing."
When Dumbledore saw this notebook, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Is it the one I thought about?"
"That's it." Snape nodded affirmatively, "One of Voldemort's Horcruxes, Tom Riddle's diary."
Jack's plans kept changing.
This Horcrux was originally used to waste Dumbledore's time and energy. After Dumbledore was dismissed as headmaster, it has lost its proper function.
In this case, it is better to use it to make use of the remaining heat.
"His own diary?" Dumbledore took the diary.
No need to look through it, just follow the corresponding process and sense it, and you can already determine whether it is true.
In terms of Dumbledore's strength, the identification was completed in just five seconds.
This is real.
It is indeed Voldemort's Horcrux.
"I should have thought of it earlier." Dumbledore stroked the diary with his hand, "The carrier of the Horcrux made by Voldemort was either Ravenclaw's crown or Slytherin's locket. With his high self-esteem, the remaining soul weapon carriers are definitely not ordinary things. It's just..."
"I didn't expect that he would put himself in the same position as the four founders of Hogwarts." Snape took over. "He believed that he was as powerful as the four founders, or even more powerful than them." Awesome. In this case, my own items should be on the same level as the relics left by the founder. It is normal to use them as the carrier of Horcruxes."
"You're right." Dumbledore sighed.
Voldemort was too proud and too confident.
Well now.
For such a confident and proud person, the reason why he was 'immortal' was almost completely wiped out by them.
"Ravenclaw's golden diadem, Hufflepuff's golden cup, Gaunt's ring, his diary, Slytherin's locket, and Harry." Snape said with a straight face, "Seven Souls Six of them have been dealt with, right? The only problem left is Harry and the last unknown Horcrux."
"No, no." Dumbledore shook his head, "In fact, I haven't solved Slytherin's locket yet."
"What's going on?" Snape frowned, "Why did it take so long? What have you been busy with since you left school?"
He finally came to his senses and asked the question reasonably and sensibly.
"Something went wrong." Dumbledore raised his hand and rubbed his brow, "That locket is in a very special magic."
"What do you mean?" Snape was puzzled, "You found it, but it was blocked by magic?"
"Yes and no."
"What do you mean? Are you trying to riddle me with something so important?"
"Don't worry, listen to me slowly. Here's what happened." Dumbledore said slowly, "Based on Lockhart's information, I basically locked the whereabouts of the locket. But the clues pointed in two different directions. . One is in the cave and the other is in Blake's old house."
"Huh? How come there are two directions?" Snape recalled, "Didn't Lockhart say it, it's in that old house."
In fact, he was not sure anymore.
For him, this was 12 years ago.
Who allowed him to experience a round of time travel?
It's just that, as long as his tone is firmer, Dumbledore won't think too much.
"Of course that's because I've seen the locket in the cave." Dumbledore announced the answer directly, "But that thing was protected by the black magic set by Voldemort, and I couldn't take it out for a while. Since I took it Until it comes out, there’s no way to determine its authenticity.”
"What about the locket in the old house?" Snape was not a fool. Since the authenticity of the one in the cave could not be determined, he could use the one in the old house to authenticate it first.
As long as the locket in the old house is genuine, there is no need to consider the one in the cave.
If the ones in the old house are fake, we need to think about how to break the dark magic set by Voldemort.
"It's true." Dumbledore gave a surprising answer.
"Did you get it?" Snape was very surprised.
"Correct."
"Now that you've verified the authenticity, why are you still hesitating?"
"Is there a possibility that those two lockets are real?"
Dumbledore suddenly raised a possibility.
"Theoretically, Voldemort should have seven Horcruxes. We only know six of them now, and the true identity of one is still unknown."
"If Voldemort made two lockets and Horcruxes, and then spread suspicion... wouldn't he escape our search?"
But this is a reserved item for Potions class after all.
No matter how uncomfortable it is, I'm getting used to it.
Anyway, no matter how many college points are deducted, they will be added back.
