Chapter 682 A child’s trial of playing house

After understanding that Draco's arrival might be related to Lynn's plan, Dumbledore relaxed. He pointed to the pensieve not far away with a smile and said, "Please do so, Draco."

After Draco thanked Dumbledore, he came to the pensieve.

He put the wand against his temple, copied his memory of last night, and pulled it out.

Draco put the silver-white silk thread into the pensieve, and then immersed his entire head in it.

Suddenly, Draco appeared in his memory, and now he was in a third-person perspective.

From Draco's perspective, he was standing stupidly outside the Ravenclaw common room last night, as motionless as a sculpture.

After a while, Ms. Gray slowly floated out from the wall.

Seeing this scene, Draco immediately concentrated his attention and watched Ms. Grey's every move.

I saw that when Ms. Gray saw herself in the memory, her face was still very peaceful, with a bit of tenderness towards the child.

So when did Ms. Gray's attitude begin to change?

Draco stared closely at Ms. Gray's every move, and after seeing Ms. Gray's attitude change when she saw the Slytherin badge on her chest in her memory, Draco frowned.

Do you feel disgusted with yourself just because you are a student of Slytherin House? !

This is why? !

Draco thought sadly, but soon he figured it all out.

Draco is not stupid, on the contrary, he is smart.

Who is the most offensive person that has ever come out of Slytherin House in the past hundred years? !

Isn't it Voldemort?

Isn't the Ravenclaw's diadem that Draco is looking for Voldemort's Horcrux?

Thinking of this, Draco raised his head suddenly. Could it be that Voldemort, who was still a student in Slytherin College, had met Ms. Gray and left a bad impression on her? !

With this thought in mind, Draco continued to read.

"Slytherin's little wizard, why are you here? It should be almost curfew time, right?"

"Good evening, Ms. Grey. I'm Draco Malfoy."

There was nothing wrong with these two sentences of dialogue. Under Draco's observation, Ms. Gray's demeanor did not change too obviously because of this dialogue.

"You haven't told me why you're here so close to curfew?"

"Ms. Grey, I want to find the whereabouts of Ravenclaw's diadem. I wonder if I can ask for your help."

During this conversation, Draco finally realized something was wrong.

That was when Ms. Gray heard him mention "the whereabouts of Ravenclaw's diadem", her expression suddenly changed. She looked at herself in the memory, as if she was no longer facing a student, but It was like facing an enemy with a blood feud.

Thanks to Draco's status as a student, Ms. Gray suppressed the anger in her heart and just drove him away without doing anything more.

"Is Slytherin worthy of coveting Ravenclaw's treasure? Get out of here, little wizard, you are not welcome in Ravenclaw!"

After Ms. Gray's voice sounded, driving away the memory of herself, this memory also ended.

Draco was thoughtful as he left the pensieve.

After Ms. Gray mentioned the "Crown of Ravenclaw", her attitude changed drastically. There must be something fishy here.

The reason for Ms. Gray's sudden change of attitude was definitely not just because she "coveted" the crown of Ravenclaw.

After all, no matter which little wizard he is from, he is mentioning the Holy Sword of Gryffindor to Nearly Headless Nick, mentioning Hufflepuff's Golden Cup to the fat monk, and mentioning Slater to Bloody Barrow. Lin's locket, he would not be expelled by the other party.

But Ms. Gray did just that.

Draco was convinced that this was not just because he mentioned Ravenclaw's diadem, but because, as a student of Slytherin House, he mentioned that he wanted to find the whereabouts of Ravenclaw's diadem!

This led to Ms. Gray’s disgust!

"Could it be that...Ms. Gray knows the whereabouts of Ravenclaw's diadem, or is it a clue? Perhaps the reason why she dislikes me so much is that Voldemort did something similar or even the same as me back then?"

Draco thought.

If this is really the case, then Draco must find a way to completely separate himself from Voldemort's impression in Ms. Grey's impression.

Draco must make Lady Gray realize that he and Voldemort are definitely not the same person, and his purpose is definitely not to deceive her, let alone use her to possess the crown of Ravenclaw.

Draco felt annoyed again. Judging from Ms. Gray's current attitude towards him, she probably wouldn't be willing to listen to his explanation.

It seems...he can only take one step at a time...

Draco's face looked very ugly, but he still forced a smile, thanked Dumbledore, and then left the principal's office.

After the door to the principal's office was closed again, Dumbledore looked at the door and said thoughtfully: "It seems that the changes that have happened to Draco are not small. Are you right?"

As Dumbledore finished speaking, a figure suddenly appeared out of thin air and appeared on the seat opposite Dumbledore.

The owner of this figure is Lin En.

"Of course," Linn said with a smile on his lips, "After so many changes, even the Malfoy Manor was completely destroyed by ten alchemical shells detonating at the same time, Draco was able to maintain his true nature without losing his temper. It’s very rare to have a dramatic change in temperament due to a breakdown.”

Dumbledore nodded in approval, and then asked: "Draco is looking for Ravenclaw's diadem. This should be your instruction, right? Even his thoughts, are you deliberately guiding him?"

Linn said softly: "I just gave him some clues at the beginning. In just one day, he was able to point the clues to Ms. Gray and discover the connection between Ms. Gray and Ravenclaw's diadem. This is true. It gave me a lot of surprises.”

Dumbledore smiled and said, "Lynn, you should already know the whereabouts of Ravenclaw's diadem, right?"

Linn shrugged and said noncommittally: "If this were not the case, I would not treat something as important as a Horcrux as a child's trial, like playing house. Are you right, Professor Dumbledore?"

Dumbledore burst out laughing after hearing Lin's meaningful words.

When Harry was in first grade, wasn't the secret room he arranged to hide the Philosopher's Stone a specially designed trial for children to play house after knowing the results? ! (End of chapter)
