Chapter 325： insomnia

At night, the principal’s room was still lit, and Dumbledore was sitting behind his desk reviewing the documents accumulated in the last few days. Although the vice-principal Professor McGonagall would also assist him with most of the school’s affairs, some documents still require him The principal personally signed.

"Recently, a lot of things have happened."

Dumbledore finished processing the documents, took a sip of the milk tea with several sugar cubes, and his eyes fell on the Daily Prophet on the table.

Voldemort stared at the Sorcerer's Stone, Professor Rowena Smith had somehow disappeared, and there were reforms within the Ministry of Magic.

Dumbledore could be sure that Voldemort had definitely returned to England secretly, and he was eyeing Nico Lemay’s Philosopher’s Stone, but the biggest question now is, where is Voldemort hiding?

Originally, Dumbledore wanted to borrow the Philosopher's Stone to seduce Voldemort out. After all, the enemy hidden in the dark is really hard to deal with.

It is a pity that Voldemort has not taken any action, he is still cautiously hiding his whereabouts, even when monitoring Nico Lemay, for fear of being discovered by others, it will be difficult to catch him for a while.

Dumbledore didn't want to play hide-and-seek with the other party either. He was old, and his energy was not as good as before, and he couldn't stand the mess.

There was another thing that made Dumbledore very concerned. How could Professor Rowena Smith disappear suddenly? There was no news at all, as if he had disappeared out of thin air.

Dumbledore suspected that Professor Smith's disappearance was related to Voldemort.

No way, based on Voldemort's current situation, someone must be helping him, otherwise he couldn't find him hiding there for a while.

There is nothing wrong with Dumbledore's thoughts, after all, the opponent is Voldemort, and he must be cautious in any case.

Will it be Rowena Smith?

Dumbledore paced back and forth in the principal's room, considering the possibility of this matter. If it was possible, it was actually not high. If he is Voldemort and wants to hide his whereabouts completely, he shouldn't let Rowena Smith disappear inexplicably. The Smith family's reward has always been listed in the Daily Prophet.

"These two things may be okay."

After clarifying his thoughts, Dumbledore sat back at the principal's desk and began to use a letter opener to open the envelopes he received recently, and responded one by one.

Since Cornelius Fudge became Minister of Magic, he has sent many owls to send him letters every day, asking him to help him come up with ideas on certain policies of the Ministry of Magic.

After all, the Buffy Brain Refreshing agent was still raging, and the Ministry of Magic was considering formulating a new examination bill.

Although Dumbledore is not an expert in potions, he is also very aware of the difficulty of making Buffy Brain Rejuvenation Potion. There is no need to make a statement about it. After all, the materials used to make this potion are so expensive and the difficulty is so high. Several master potions masters can make success.

Thinking of the Slytherin student who had drunk Buffy's brain poisoning and went to the school hospital, Dumbledore could not help but sighed. To avoid the danger of poisoning after taking the drug.

After all, 100% of the Buffy refreshing agents on the market are toxic and failing products, even if the agents are diluted, they are still fatal.

There is no need to specify a strict bill, let everyone understand that is the most important thing. I believe that there are precedents, and few dare to touch the Buffy Brain Rejuvenator.

Would anyone drink it if they knew it was poisonous?

Certainly not!

After dealing with this, Dumbledore began to open other letters again, and gave his recovery after careful consideration.

However, after he saw the name of the sender, he couldn't help being stunned.

Albert Anderson?

Dumbledore said the sender's name softly, and opened the envelope with the letter opener placed next to it, which contained a piece of parchment and a picture of...

The picture shows an ugly bust of an old wizard on the top of a crate, his head covered with a gray old hair cover and a rusty crown.

Dumbledore was stunned for a moment, and didn't understand the meaning of the photo for a while, and because it was a little far away, it was not clear.

He picked up the letter paper and quickly read it. The letter probably said: Albert accidentally found a suspected black magic prop in a mysterious room in the school.

The rusty crown of the wizard bust in the photo is the dark magic item. As long as you get close to it, you can hear evil whispers.

He suspects that this thing may also be the crown of the legendary Ravenclaw Academy missing for many years.

These are his two suspicions, a very dangerous black magic item, or Ravenclaw's crown, and the basis of judgment is that he heard a whisper.

Dumbledore squinted his eyes, picked up the unclear photo again, took a closer look, and then looked at the portrait behind him.

"Armando, do you think the crown in the photo looks like Ravenclaw's crown?" Dumbledore handed the photo towards the portrait of Armando Dupete.

"Amando Dupete is the principal from Ravenclaw, and he is more familiar with crowns than them."

"Ravenclaw's crown?" Armando Dupete pushed his glasses, stretched his head and leaned together. The other principals in the office also opened their eyes and turned towards the nearby The portrait crowded over.

I want to see the so-called Ravenclaw's crown. After all, that thing has disappeared for a long time. There is no shortage of students trying to find the crown to give their academy extra points.

"This shape is a bit similar, but you also know that it has disappeared for hundreds of years, and no one has seen it at all." Armando Dupete is not sure, but he has seen Ravenck. The crown on the statue of Lao, but this one is rusty...

"Wait a moment!"

As he said, he disappeared from his own portrait, and it didn’t take long for Armando Dipert to appear again out of breath. He just went to the Ravenclaw lounge.

"It looks a bit like, of course, it's an imitation. By the way, where did you get this photo?"

"A student sent me Dumbledore said: "He thinks that the crown is most likely a dark magic item, because he heard a weird voice from the crown, you also know it. , Hearing weird sounds in the wizarding world is not a good sign. "

In the magical world, anything that can think independently needs to be vigilant. Dumbledore is not sure whether Ravenclaw's crown has the same ability to think like the Sorting Hat, but Albert's judgment and approach are undoubtedly quite wise. , Tell him the matter directly instead of trying to figure it out by himself.

"I suggest you take back the things in the photo and study it." Armando Dipete's tone was a bit urging: "Although it is unlikely, it should be taken seriously."

"I will, Armando." Dumbledore glanced at his pocket watch. It was early in the morning, and now it is impossible to find it. Although Albert said where this thing is,... The treasure trove is too big, and it contains all the things from Hogwarts history. Without Albert's help to lead the way, it would be difficult to find it for a while.

"It seems that this matter has to wait for tomorrow." He muttered, staring at the photo.
