Chapter 525: Harry's Trouble

Because Ravenclaw's diadem used to be Voldemort's Horcrux, so for security reasons, I can't make this contribution of yours public. Dumbledore showed an embarrassed look on his face, Of course, wait for us After the victory I will let everyone know what you have done.

It doesn't matter, such a sacrifice for victory is nothing. Ryan waved his hands and made an indifferent expression. Anyway, after giving the things to the principal this time, he has a closer relationship with the boss, and by the way, he can get one through Dumbledore A large number of good things that could not be obtained before, this is already a good deal, and a little fame is nothing. Not to mention that under the current situation, this kind of false name will only make Voldemort pay attention, and it would be better without such false name.

May I ask, where did you find this diadem? Dumbledore asked straight up after opening the drawer and putting the diadem in. This is very important, so I hope you can tell me.

The place where students hide things in the Response Room. Ryan felt that there was no need to hide this from the principal, but the process of finding this thing would change a little bit. He couldn't tell the principal that I knew this thing was here. .

Didn't I recycle magic props at Sirius' house before, so after returning to school, after the batch of things I got at Sirius's house were used up, I started looking for enough raw materials in school. The result was At the door of the Room of Requirement, when I thought I was looking for scraps that everyone didn’t need, what was displayed inside the Room of Requirement was a huge sundry warehouse. There were a lot of things that the former students hid there. This helped me a lot , Many of the materials in the recent batch of bracelets came from here. Speaking of this, Ryan paused.

Dumbledore smiled: It's okay, the things hidden there are not needed by everyone. It's a good thing for you to recycle. This is also my incomplete thinking before. I didn't consider that even if you have money It is also difficult to buy what you need. In the future, if you need anything, you can tell me directly, and I will help you find it.”

Thank you then. Ryan smiled and continued. When I was looking for something later, I saw this crown from the head of an old wizard bust. At that time, the crown looked rusty and inconspicuous. I just thought that the gemstone on it might be valuable. I reached out When I went to get it, there was a voice in the crown asking me to take it, and I found out that something was wrong. After that, I put it in a lead box and took it back to study slowly. I thought it might be a horcrux, so I used it to test the stripping of the remnant soul. It didn't work out until two or three days ago.

You are taking too much risk, Ryan. I don't want you to do this in the future. After listening to what Ryan said, Dumbledore showed a concerned expression. You should have told me about this kind of thing in advance. It's not like you haven't seen the danger of a Horcrux.

You don't have to worry. Ryan said to Dumbledore with a smile. I think my level is facing all kinds of magic and dangerous curses on the Horcrux. At the same time, it can also weaken the temptation of the soul in the Horcrux, not to mention that I got the blessing of the Phoenix when I went to the Celestial Dynasty in the summer vacation , so that my soul can communicate with Hermione, and if I tend to be controlled by a mysterious person, she will notify you as soon as possible.

Okay. Dumbledore smiled. I should learn to trust you young people now, but you can come to me when you encounter any difficulties in the future. The door of my office is always open for you.

Thank you so much. Ryan thanked him sincerely, and now he can buy some things that he wanted but couldn't buy before, and he can finally start refining the alchemy stone by himself.

After saying a few more words,

Ryan bid farewell to Professor Dumbledore and left. When he went downstairs, he saw Harry walking towards Professor Dumbledore's office. It seemed that he was about to start a new lesson about Voldemort.

Ryan found that after the last battle of the Ministry of Magic, Dumbledore began to consciously train young people, especially Harry. It seems that during the battle with Voldemort, he realized that he was getting old and slowly began to be unable to do what he wanted, and felt that it was time to cultivate the next generation.

Harry found Ryan who was going downstairs, and after saying hello to Ryan, he went to the principal's office. At this time, Dumbledore had already cleaned up all the traces of Ryan's visit, leaving only the Pensieve on the table.

After Harry greeted the headmaster, Dumbledore first talked about the meeting between Harry and the Minister of Magic during the Christmas break. Dumbledore was a little moved by Harry's performance, and also mentioned that the Ministry of Magic has been trying to figure out what he was doing, and even sent Aurors to follow him.

So they don't know where you're going yet? Harry asked, hoping for more information on a question he was curious about, but Dumbledore just looked at him from over the top of his half-moon glasses and smiled. Yeah, they don't know, and it's too early to tell you. All I can say is that this matter is very important to defeating Voldemort. Well, then we will continue with the class, unless you have other important things- —”

Harry quickly told the overheard conversation about Snape and Malfoy, but Dumbledore advised Harry not to take it to heart because he didn't think it was important. Although Dumbledore's answer made Harry very uncomfortable, he finally chose to watch today's memory according to Dumbledore's request.

Dumbledore began to introduce Voldemort's excellent performance after entering the school, and also pointed out that Voldemort was very good at disguising at this time. He even organized a small group of his own and caused many vicious attacks for which no evidence was found. .

Next Dumbledore showed Gaunt, the memory of Voldemort's uncle. In this memory, he saw Voldemort confirming his identity for the first time. After reading the memory, Dumbledore told Harry that he could confirm that after Voldemort stunned Gaunt, he killed his father and grandparents with Gaunt's wand. After that, he planted the blame on his uncle and performed that little bit of complicated magic, implanting false memories into his uncle's mind and planting the blame on his uncle. He also took the ancient ring with him.

After Harry and Dumbledore criticized the Ministry of Magic's flaws, Dumbledore solemnly took out another bottle from the inner pocket of his robe. Harry noticed that when Dumbledore dumped the contents of the bottle, the contents of the bottle were not easy to pour into the Pensieve, as if a little congealed, could the memory also deteriorate?

Harry, this memory has not come easily, and I think it is the most important of all the memories I have collected, and of course, it may also be the shortest. Dumbledore said, We will be back in a moment. All right , enter the Pensieve again...

After the familiar feeling of falling, Harry saw a much younger Slughorn in front of him, the most obvious being that he was not bald at this time. Looking around, he found himself in Slughorn's office. Around Slughorn sat half a dozen boys, all about fifteen or sixteen, in chairs harder or shorter than his. Before he had time to look carefully, a voice came: Sir, is Professor Mellors retiring?

Harry discovered that the talking young Tom Riddle was also the most handsome in the house.

Tom, I can't tell you that, said Slugher, wagging a frosted finger he'd just pulled out of a jar of pineapple preserves, but I'd love to know where you got the news, you Better informed than half the professors at Hogwarts.

Riddle smiled, and the other boys laughed too, casting him admiring glances. Slughorn laughed too. You ghost, you can know things you shouldn't know, and you will be careful to make friends with important people-by the way, thank you for your pineapple candied fruit, you guessed it, this is my favorite, although I don't know what you are Where did you know this—

At this time a strange thing happened. The whole room was suddenly enveloped in a thick white fog, and Harry could only see Dumbledore's face beside him. Slughorn's voice rang through the room, unnaturally loud: —you will make mistakes, boy, mark my words.

Then the fog cleared, and Harry saw the little golden clock on Slughorn's desk strike eleven. He started to drive everyone out. But young Voldemort stayed on. Sir, I want to ask you something.

Then ask, boy, ask...

Sir, I want to ask you if you know... Horcruxes.

Fog once again filled the room, and Harry could see neither Slughorn nor Riddle, only Dumbledore smiling serenely beside him. Then Slughorn's voice came again, as loudly as before.

I don't know anything about Horcruxes, and even if I knew, I wouldn't tell you! Get out immediately, and don't let me hear you mention this again!

It's confusing. Dumbledore looked at Harry after Harry raised his head, If you don't think so, I'll be surprised.

What the hell was that just now? Harry asked puzzled.

Professor Slughorn falsified his own memory. Because he was ashamed of the memory and wanted to falsify it to make himself more respectable. That's why I don't use Veritaserum or Legilimency, Because memories can also be false. So, for the first time, I am going to give you homework, Harry. You have to try to make Professor Slughorn reveal the real memory, which will undoubtedly be our most critical information.

Said Dumbledore brushing the Pensieve with his hand, This memory is everything, Harry. Without it, we would be blind.
