The Alchemist of Harry Potter

Chapter 578 Harry Doesn't Know
When Albert used the Imperius Curse to make Ginny Weasley return to the dormitory by herself.Professor McGonagall just woke up Madam Pomfrey who had fallen asleep.

The head nurse only put on a jacket over his pajamas, and hurried out with Professor McGonagall. Seeing the boy lying stiffly on the bed, he couldn't help but gasped.

"What's going on?" Madam Pomfrey asked Dumbledore in a low voice.

She went to the bed and leaned over to check on the boy's condition. This symptom was very strange, she had not seen it before.The boy was as stiff as a rock, and she couldn't help but connect the rumors she had heard a while ago.

To be honest, if there were no precedents, Madam Pomfrey even suspected that the stiff boy in front of her was already dead.

"Another attack," Dumbledore said calmly, "McGonagall found him on the stairs."

All three looked at Colin intently, trying to find some clues about the attacker from him.

"I heard Mr. Creevey's cry, and when I came out to check the situation, I found that he had been attacked." Professor McGonagall said in a low voice, "You should have also noticed Mr. Creevey's wide-eyed eyes and dumbfounded expression Yes, he must have seen the attacker, and the attacker was probably an unexpected guy.

"What should we do, I mean how to treat him." Madam Pomfrey asked in a low voice.

"The powerful recovery agent made from mandrake roots can lift the curse of petrification." Dumbledore comforted: "Mrs. Sprout just happened to have a batch of mandrake roots. When they mature, Severus can Made into an antidote."

"Petrified?" Madam Pomfrey frowned slightly, and began to search for similar symptoms in her mind.

"Yes." Professor McGonagall's tone was full of uneasiness, "I have never heard of any black magic that can turn people into petrified... I actually wanted to catch up before, but now I shudder thinking about it... If Hadn't met Albus, who knows what would have happened..."

"The Chamber of Secrets has been opened again," Dumbledore said softly.

"But Albus...you must know...who?" Professor McGonagall stared blankly at Dumbledore, hoping to get an answer from the other party.

"The question is not who," Dumbledore took the camera from between Colin's stiff fingers, "the question is how the other party did it."

Professor McGonagall and Madam Pomfrey looked blank, obviously not understanding Dumbledore's words.

"Did he take a picture of the attacker?" Professor McGonagall looked at the camera and asked eagerly.

Dumbledore didn't answer, and reached out to pry open the back cover of the camera, and a pungent smell of burning plastic came out of the camera.

Madam Pomfrey said in surprise, "It actually melted..."

Dumbledore put the back cover of the camera back on, put it on the bedside table next to the hospital bed, and said to Madam Pomfrey, "Take care of Mr. Creevey until the powerful recovery agent is configured."

"I will."

"This is very unusual for Albus." Professor McGonagall followed Dumbledore out of the hospital, "I noticed that Mr. Creevey had a bunch of grapes on him. I guess he wanted to sneak here to see Bo But the attacker was able to seize the opportunity accurately and quickly disappeared after using black magic to petrify Mr. Creevey."

"I'll look into it."

Professor McGonagall stopped and looked at Dumbledore with oppressive eyes: "You know what I mean, my student was attacked, and I can't turn a blind eye to it."

"Well, according to my sources, he is currently hiding in the forests of Albania."

"he?"

"Voldemort."

Hearing Dumbledore say this name, Professor McGonagall could not help but shudder.

"As far as I know, Voldemort is the last heir of Slytherin." Dumbledore said calmly, "Although there is no evidence, I believe he should have done it back then."

"Did he sneak into the school again?" Professor McGonagall remembered what happened last year. Voldemort possessed Quirrell and invaded Hogwarts to steal the Philosopher's Stone.

"That's why I can't figure it out." Dumbledore continued to move forward, "How on earth did he do this."

Yes, Dumbledore couldn't figure that out.

In fact, Dumbledore traveled through the forests of Albania long after the Halloween attacks.

In that forest, traces of Voldemort's use of black magic remained everywhere, and all signs indicated that his old student was still hiding deep in that forest.

Now that Voldemort is in the forests of Albania, how on earth did he do it.

Horcrux?
Last time, Albert found the diadem, confirming that Voldemort made the Horcruxes.

Based on his knowledge of Voldemort, the other party should have created more than one Horcrux.

However, Dumbledore was also unfamiliar with the evil dark magic item of Horcruxes.

Dumbledore returned to the principal's office with a cup of hot chocolate from the kitchen, looked at the old bird standing on the branch, and murmured: "Fox, you need to act quickly, I will need your help soon."

Regarding the Chamber of Secrets and the monsters in the Chamber of Secrets, Dumbledore had already guessed.

He had investigated Myrtle 50 years ago when she was killed by the monster in the Chamber of Secrets, even though there was no evidence against the killer at the time.

At that time, he could only keep silent and monitor the other party silently.

Dumbledore knew very well that even if he did extra things, nothing could be changed, so he could only help Hagrid as much as possible.

After the attack on the night of the Halloween banquet, Dumbledore once again put the dusty memories into the Pensieve to watch, trying to sort out valuable intelligence.

He was not in a hurry to catch the monster in the Chamber of Secrets, it was more important to find out how Voldemort did it.

As for the attack.

Dumbledore believed that the professors would patrol in the future to minimize the incident, and Harry, who was involved in this incident, would continue to investigate.

Harry will once again face a new challenge.

Dumbledore knew what risks he needed to take, but he had to give Harry plenty of exercise while he was still strong enough.

Only by giving Harry enough exercise can he grow up quickly and gradually approach the truth.

If he didn't get enough exercise, what should Harry use to cope with the difficulties he needs to face in the future?
Although there were times when Dumbledore felt that he might have told Harry the truth, Harry was too young, and 12 was really not much better than 11.

He prefers to let Harry gradually understand the truth as he grows up. This is more useful than telling Harry the facts all at once, it can keep Harry's mind at peace, and it can make him face everything bravely.
