Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

687. Chapter 683 Dumbledore's self-blame

    Now, there are only three people in the house, Dumbledore, Ivan and Harry.

    Harry looked a bit cautious, Dumbledore was tired, and dealing with Fudge didn't seem so easy.

    Ivan knows very well that although Dumbledore can ignore the Ministry of Magic's opinions, he will not do that unless he has to.

    Because doing so will undoubtedly make everything worse, so he will get the support of Fudge and the Ministry of Magic as much as possible.

    But it's really hard, Fudge is getting harder to meet and compromise…

    The first thing he needs to consider is his position and power, and then it is the other.

    "Do you have two things to tell me?!"Dumbledore said, turning around and looking at Ivan and Harry, "But I suggest that before that, it's best to eat something first, I think you must have breakfast when you come over!"

    He waved wand, milk and sandwiches appeared on the table.

    Dumbledore sat down in the chair behind the table, indicating that Ivan and Harry were sitting opposite him.

    As they ate, his gaze shifted to the door that was not closed, and it seemed that he had guessed what had happened.

    ProfessorHarry panicked and explained, swallowing the food in his mouth. "When we came in, the door was open…"

    "So we accidentally saw the Pensieve inside!"Ivan added, “And your memory!”

    "I can understand that I was using it when Fudge arrived. I rushed to collect it, presumably not shutting the door, it will naturally attract your attention. ”Dumbledore said calmly, staring at the two people from above the half-moon lens. "Curiosity is not a sin, but I have to say one more thing, we should be careful when we are curious. Especially you, Ivan, don't touch too much with things you don't know, really…"

    Got itIvan nodded. What did Dumbledore mean? !

    Are those dangerous dark magic, or the Demon in the basement, or the terrible evil god? !

    "Great."Dumbledore smiled again.

    He walked over and opened the door, took Pensieve over and placed it on the table in front of them.

    The things in the basin changed back to a silver-white state, and they swirled in front of their eyes.

    "I think you should know, this Pensieve!"Dumbledore said, sitting down again. "Sometimes I feel that I have too many thoughts and memories in my mind, I need to use it to help me sort out." Pour your memory into the basin and take a look when you have time. You know, in this state it is easier to see their form and their connection. ”

    Under Ivan and Harry's gaze, he inserted the wand's tip into his silver hair, near the temple.

    When he pulled out the wand, there seemed to be some hair sticking on the tip of the stick. It was a silvery white material like a pot.

    Dumbledore added this new idea to the basin, holding Pensieve with his slender hands and turning.

    Like the gold digger turning the sand table, gradually, Snape's face appeared in the stone basin.

    Snape opened his mouth and spoke to the ceiling, with a little echo.

    "He is back, Karkaroff's is also more obvious and clearer than ever before…"

    "He did come back, I can find the connection between them without help!"Dumbledore exclaimed, "It's too obvious, I thought he would be low-key."

    Dumbledore frowned slightly, and licked the thoughts in the basin with his tip.

    A human figure was immediately raised in the basin. It was a 13-year-old boy with pale skin and freckles.

    He is Barty Jr. in a younger age.
· Crouch, his legs are still standing in the basin.

    When he spoke, he also echoed like Snape, as if it came from the depths of the stone basin.

    "Yes, Professor, I have to get all 12 Ordinary Wizarding Level certificates. My father asked me to do it, so I want to apply for a Time-Turner…"His face was proud and the tone made Ivan think of Malfoy.

    "This is the son of Mr. Crouch?!"Harry whispered, looking at the boy.

    YesDumbledore licked the thoughts in the basin, Barty Jr.
After sinking, the basin turned into an opaque silver white. "That is Barty Jr.
Crouch, a very smart child, is also very polite. Believe me, there are not many students who can develop new curses at this age, and Old Barty has high expectations for him. ”

    "He studied his own curse at the age of fourteen?"Ivan asked.

    "A very interesting little magic!"Dumbledore said, "He has a perfect score on all courses. He is the best graduate of Hogwarts after Tom Riddle. I originally thought that he would work at the Ministry of Magic, and he would inherit his father…"

    "Professor, I just read the memory of that trial, he is different from the other three Death Eaters!"Harry hesitated, "He may just happen to be in that place…"

    "Nothing is accidental, Harry!"Dumbledore closed his eyes and said in a self-blame tone, "I later learned that soon after this conversation, he joined Voldemort's team, became the youngest Death Eater, and soon gained attention. I should have noticed to prevent this from happening! ”

    The silver light in Pensieve illuminates Dumbledore's face, and he looks so old.

    Ivan seems to have just realized this, the world's greatest wizard, now a real old man.

    “I sometimes think that there is a big problem with our educational philosophy.”Dumbledore said slowly, "Only teaching the students magic, and not teaching the truth of the person, led to so many dark wizard's. Especially for Slytherin's students, they are excellent, but it also means that they are more tempted and must be guided carefully…"

    Dumbledore is different from other professors. He cares about what the students are thinking and has always been.

    Especially for those very talented wizards, he hopes to lead them to the right path, which he believes is his responsibility.

    This idea is very good, although the results are not all perfect.

    Voldemort is the most obvious example. He grew up almost as Dumbledore's watch and grew into the most evil Dark Lord.

    In the field of magic, the more you know, the bigger your ambition will be; the stronger you become, the more you will be tempted.

    Sometimes, some seemingly correct practices tend to be counterproductive.
