Chapter 1313 Disagreement
At this moment, an uninvited guest came to the empty principal's office. The stone statue outside, which was responsible for guarding the entrance of the principal's office, couldn't stop the opponent's footsteps at all, and was easily dealt with by a confusion spell.
"Harry has come to Hogwarts to find the Ravenclaw diadem."
Standing in front of the principal's desk, Albert looked up at the sleeping old man in the picture frame.
"Did you tell him?"
The portrait of Dumbledore opened his eyes, looked at Albert standing in front of him, and guessed the purpose of the other party coming to find him.
"What are you going to do?" Albert asked directly.
Dumbledore's portrait murmured, "It's really rare, you would hesitate, I thought..."
"You are already dead, so naturally there is no need to worry."
Albert blinked at the portraits of the principals who opened their eyes and raised their ears to eavesdrop, and raised his index finger to his mouth to make a shush gesture.
"The situation in the British magic world is worse than I expected, and the mysterious man has become more difficult."
"You pushed Voldemort too hard." Dumbledore knew why.
"Maybe," Albert said noncommittally, "but war is never about treating guests to dinner, it's about killing people."
"Isn't it a dinner treat?"
Dumbledore heard Albert's sarcasm and dissatisfaction from these words, but he did not deny that these words were correct.
"You can't expect a messiah to solve your problems."
"You seem to be very dissatisfied with the current situation, has something happened?"
Dumbledore was very surprised by Albert's reaction. The other party didn't seem to come to him to discuss things, but he seemed to come to him to complain, complaining about the original decision, complaining that he died so early, and complaining that he took most of the burden Throw to each other.
"Harry Potter is not an idiot. I believe he will guess the true identity of Ms. Gray before long." Albert reminded, "Maybe, Ms. Gray promised us to keep the crown a secret, but Harry and Hermione will surely go to Mr. Binns to prove it, so she can guess that Ms. Gray is lying, and they can all see it, how can we not see it?"
"Harry will soon realize what I'm deliberately hiding, and deduce the truth that the diadem may be hidden in the school by a mysterious person."
"It's still too early." Dumbledore shook his head, "Harry needs time, and..."
"Are you afraid of Harry going your way?"
Looking at the silent old man in front of him, Albert suddenly said, "I don't know if Snape told you that Rita Skeeter used Veritaserum to pry open Bathilda Bagshot's mouth and obtained from her many secrets about you, and wrote The Life and Lies of Albus Dumbledore out of them."
"Now everyone knows the grievances between you and Grindelwald."
"I never deliberately concealed this matter." Dumbledore shook his head and said, "You already knew that, didn't you?"
"I know it doesn't work."
"They will come after a while, you can tell them." Albert reminded, "This is your plan, and the choice is yours."
choose?
There was no choice from the beginning.
Dumbledore guessed that the current change in Harry was definitely related to Albert, and he asked, "Have you found the whereabouts of the Hufflepuff Gold Cup?"
"Probably in some Death Eater's Gringotts vault."
"If it's what you said, there are probably only a few of them." Dumbledore murmured, "This is really bad."
"What are you worried about?" Albert asked back.
"I was never worried that Harry wouldn't find Hufflepuff's cup," said Dumbledore, "I was only a little worried about Harry's situation, that he might be like me, at the wrong time, for the wrong reason." Make a mistake, not everyone can resist temptation like you do."
"Resist the temptation, no, that old wand scares me." Albert shook his head. "It was a mistake for you to give it to me from the beginning. It is too powerful. I have tried to use it. It is absolutely difficult for you to use it." Imagine...that would be like performing a miracle."
"Believe me, you are more qualified than anyone else to own it and keep it." Dumbledore said with a smile, "In fact, you completely underestimated yourself. You are also entitled to own all the Deathly Hallows."
"I never thought of being the master of death." Albert laughed at himself.
"I know." Dumbledore said softly, "I just hope that Harry can really conquer death, but it won't be easy."
"Are you worried that Potter will not resolutely die at the right time as you arranged?"
"Few people have the courage to accept the fate of death." Dumbledore actually admitted directly.
"Anyway, I definitely don't want to die, and I hate having my life arranged by others." Albert laughed at himself, "Well, I know what you are worried about, but believe me, no one wants to be deceived, it is best not to let Potter Create a reverse psychology."
Dumbledore was silent, as if he was considering Albert's words, but then he shook his head and said, "I still think it's not the time yet. When the time comes, I believe Harry will arrange everything properly and meet his fate calmly."
"That also means the real end of Tom Riddle."
Dumbledore looked at the best student ever in front of him and said, "I hope you will tell him yourself."
"I thought it would be Snape." Albert raised his eyebrows.
"I did tell Severus about it."
"He must be very excited."
"It seems that you know a lot." Dumbledore was not surprised by this.
"I think your worries are unnecessary." Albert said suddenly, "Not long ago, Harry had deciphered the secret of the Deathly Hallows in the "Tales of Beedle the Bard" that you left to Hermione. , after he figured out that you left the resurrection stone in the Golden Snitch, he already knew that the enemy he should defeat in the end is Death."
"You told him?"
Dumbledore frowned slightly, he found that Harry's progress was much faster than expected.
"I just told him some trivial information, many of which were speculated by themselves." Albert asked back, "I'm actually curious, why didn't you just tell Potter the truth?"
"the truth?"
"If Harry knew that letting the mysterious man do Avada Kedavra personally would not necessarily kill him, and he could get rid of the Horcrux that the mysterious man left on him, I believe he would be willing to try it, anyway, in the end They are all going to die."
"It seems that something unpleasant happened to you." Dumbledore suddenly changed the subject.
"You want to know?" Albert raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Maybe, speaking out will make you feel better." Dumbledore listened attentively.
"It's nothing, it's just that I have seen too much evil, too much death, too much humanity and too much hypocrisy during this period."
Albert briefly told Dumbledore about recent events, including Draco Malfoy's complete depravity.
Yes, he killed.
Although there was no wave in Albert's words, Dumbledore could hear his disgust and dissatisfaction.
"To be honest, you shouldn't choose to face death, otherwise the situation will be much better than it is now." Albert looked at Dumbledore who was silent.
"You probably don't know how much Scrimgeour hates you."
"However, explain to Harry yourself for now."
