Chapter 642: Stunned (big

"Come with me, Mr. Anderson."

Professor McGonagall brought Albert to the principal's office so that someone could tell him the matter as soon as Dumbledore returned to school.

This is the "important" task given to Albert by Professor McGonagall.

In order to prevent Albert from being bored waiting in the principal's office, Professor McGonagall handed him the latest issue of "Transfiguration Today" magazine and let him read the book to pass the boring waiting time.

Before leaving, Professor McGonagall "intimately" conjured Albert a large glass of pumpkin juice out of thin air.

Looking at the oak door that "creaked" closed, Albert squinted the "Transfiguration Today" magazine in his hand, threw the magazine directly on the desk, picked up the glass of pumpkin juice, and drank half of it "tons and tons". Later, he drew the wand from his pocket and gave the cup a refill spell.

Seeing the refilled glass of pumpkin juice, Albert nodded in satisfaction, put away his wand and walked to the desk, and picked up the tattered, crumpled sorting hat on the bookshelf.

Albert planned to take this opportunity to get in touch with the Sorting Hat. He always felt that there were a lot of secrets hidden in that torn hat, as well as to figure out how the Sorting Hat was made.

This thing may develop in the direction of artificial intelligence in the magic world.

Well, calling artificial intelligence may not be appropriate.

Anyway, it is probably something similar.

Albert held the Sorting Hat and pondered for a while, but couldn't get the broken hat to speak. Finally, in desperation, he had to put the Sorting Hat on his head so that the two sides could communicate smoothly.

Albert kept talking to the Sorting Hat to test its intelligence level, trying to find out if there were any secrets hidden in the hat. For a while, he indulged in the memory presented by the Sorting Hat, forgetting the time, until someone put his hand on it. On his shoulder, Albert suddenly recovered, took off the sorting hat he was wearing, looked up at the figure that appeared in the principal's office, and almost jumped from the chair.

"Professor Dumbledore." Albert called out the other's name.

"Minerva asked you to wait for me here?" Dumbledore was a little surprised that Albert would be in his office.

"Yes, Professor McGonagall hopes that someone will be able to tell you what happened in the school as soon as the professor returns." Albert put the sorting hat lightly on the desk and earnestly fulfilled what he left here. responsibility.

"The murder of Miss Weasley?"

"No, I think Ginny shouldn't die yet, she was just taken into the secret room." Albert closed his brain silently, preventing Dumbledore from reading information from his eyes.

"Oh, Miss Weasley is not dead?" Dumbledore's frowned brows couldn't help but let go. "This is the best news I heard today. Tell me what is going on!"

Albert used the simplest and most straightforward words to tell Dumbledore the most important things.

For example: Ginny controlled the basilisk to attack other Muggle wizards. The entrance to the secret room is the girls’ bathroom on the second floor of the castle. The entrance to the secret room requires the basilisk cavity. Finally, the monster in the secret room is the basilisk, and the real Slytherin heir A wizard named Tom Riddle.

"Do you think Tom Riddle was the murderer of the attack?"

Dumbledore was very upset when he heard Albert mention the name, even though he had cleverly used an expression of interest to hide his emotional changes.

"According to my investigation, Tom Riddle who caught Hagrid 50 years ago should be a mysterious man." Albert was not shy about Voldemort's affairs, but he did not directly use that name, but instead used "mysterious "Person" refers to.

"I suspect that Tom Riddle is behind the scenes. The main reason is that "Tom Riddle's diary" appeared in the school. According to Harry's description, it should be a diary capable of independent thinking. Later the diary disappeared. , I suspect that the thing bewitched and controlled Ginny."

"A diary that can think alone?" Dumbledore murmured softly, apparently already guessing what was going on.

Who told Albert to help Dumbledore know about Voldemort's Horcrux in advance? It's hard not to let him not think about it.

"I think it's best to save Ginny first. She's probably in a bad situation now." Albert is not a villain, and naturally doesn't want Fred and George's sister to have an accident. "The basilisk in the secret room, as long as it blinds its eyes, there is not much danger. I think Fox should be able to deal with it."

"It seems that you have found a way to deal with the basilisk early on." Dumbledore strode out of the office, "Go and call Harry, I need him to help open the entrance to the secret room."

"I'll take Harry to the abandoned girls' bathroom on the second floor to meet you." After that, Albert hurried to the Gryffindor common room.

On the way, Albert slowed down at the sign of Fulin Ji (intuition), and checked the live spot map in his pocket. Harry Potter was no longer in the Gryffindor common room.

That's right, with Harry Potter's character, 80% of them couldn't help but entered the secret room alone to save someone.

In the case of tampering with the plot, it is not known whether Harry will die in the secret room.

Albert thought maliciously.

If you lose the savior, what will the world be like?

Change to another savior?

Is it possible to save the world by yourself?

Well, saving the world is impossible to save the world. Albert doesn't have such a noble consciousness, and he has never thought about fighting with Tom.

If he hides behind Tom secretly twice to earn some rewards for the mission, he still doesn't mind at all.

It's best to become a tumbler.

I finally got a good baby in this life, and my great life has just begun, why bother to die?

Moreover, I am not the savior of the world!

When Albert came quietly to the second floor of the castle, he did not forget to rub his cheeks with his hands. He took a deep breath, knowing that it was time to perform real acting.

After a short run from the stairs, he turned into the girls' bathroom panting, and said loudly, "Professor Dumbledore, Harry is gone, I think he might run by himself..."

The entrance to the chamber has been opened. Professor McGonagall, the Weasleys, Fred, George, Ron, and Percy are all here. They heard Albert's shout and turned their heads to look at him. Albert entering the girls' bathroom.

"Where is Dumbledore?" Albert moved his gaze to the opening of the secret room entrance, slowing his voice and said, "Harry is gone. He may have secretly tried to open... the secret room."

At this moment, Albert really felt that the Oscars of this world should award himself the Little Golden Man.

"Professor Dumbledore has gone down." Percy said nervously and looked at the entrance of the chamber.

"Albert, you **** just now..."

Fred and George surrounded Albert, looking a little annoyed, Albert used a Stunning Charm to bring them down.

However, the attention of the two of them was quickly attracted by the Phoenix who flew out first at the entrance of the chamber.

Afterwards, Harry, Ginny, and Dumbledore slowly ascended from the passage as if taking an elevator.

"Harry, Ginny!"

There was an exclamation immediately from the girls' bathroom.

Harry looked a bit miserable and seemed to have suffered a serious injury, but it seemed that it was no longer in the way. It was probably healed with Phoenix's tears.

"Damn it, if only I had a phoenix." Albert envied Dumbledore's phoenix pet.

At this moment, Harry was holding a silver sword in his hand.

Professor Dumbledore didn't know when to send the Sorting Hat to Harry, or did he say that the Sorting Hat was not needed to summon the Gryffindor Sword.

Will this magic sword appear when Gryffindor students need it?

"everything is over?"

Albert looked at Ginny and Harry, who were embraced by the Weasleys, and moved his gaze to Dumbledore who was standing beside him smiling.

"It's over. The basilisk was killed by Harry, and Riddle's memory in the diary was erased from above." Dumbledore took out Riddle's diary to Albert to see that it was pierced by the basilisk fangs. The hole that came out.

The historical revision is terrible!

Albert couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"By the way, Albus, there is one more thing." Professor McGonagall gazed at the crowd with relief and remembered Lockhart's affairs, and said to Dumbledore the misfortune of Professor Defense Against the Dark Arts: "Gidro's Things didn't seem to be right, Snape told me that someone had used a powerful forgetting spell on him and made him forget everything. Now it's like a few years old."

Speaking of this incident, Professor McGonagall's face was shaken twice, and he didn't know whether it was happiness or other reasons.

"I probably know why he was attacked."

Fu Ling Ji (intuition) tells Albert that it is time to draw other people's attention to take the opportunity to expose Lockhart's secret.

"you know?"

At this moment, everyone in the girl's bathroom turned to look at Albert, seemingly curious about how many secrets he knew.

"Yes, not long ago, Lockhart passed by when I was talking about the attack with Hermione. Although I shut up immediately, I think Lockhart might have overheard our words." Te casually fabricated a reason, but they couldn't find out anyway.

"That's the time I started to doubt Ginny because Ginny was there at the time, and then Hermione was attacked, obviously not because of being a Muggle wizard, but for other reasons."

"You mean Ginny attacked Lockhart?" Ron said dumbfounded.

"No, you made a mistake about Ron. It should be a mysterious person who attacked Lockhart." Albert looked at Ron, who was a little inattentive, speechlessly, and couldn't help but slander: You just want to pit Your own sister?

"Mr. Anderson, please tell me everything you know from start to finish." Dumbledore said to Professor McGonagall, "Minerva, don't you mind if we borrow your office?"

"Oh, of course I don't mind." Professor McGonagall was also curious about what was going on.

Everyone flooded into Professor McGonagall's office.

Sitting on the comfortable sofa, Albert picked up the hot tea that Professor McGonagall had just made out of thin air, took a sip, and slowly told the story he had prepared for this time.

"This matter has to start at the end of the third grade semester, when Professor Trelawney invited me to discuss crystal ball divination." Albert glanced at Professor McGonagall, who was dismissive of divination, then looked around and listened quietly. The people continued to say: "At that time, I predicted that Hogwarts might not be too peaceful in the next semester."

"What did you predict?"

Dumbledore was also curious as to whether Albert really had the ability to predict. There were too few masters of prophecy who knew how to predict.

"I saw the original sentence written on the wall in the crystal ball: The secret room has been opened. Be wary of enemies of the heir."

After finishing speaking, Albert put down his tea cup and looked around the dead office. He was very satisfied with the current atmosphere. "There is another picture of a copper faucet engraved with a snake mark. This is what I later determined that the entrance to the secret room is in the girls’ bathroom. One of the reasons."

"You've been investigating this matter since then?" Professor McGonagall's eyes widened, and she couldn't believe her ears.

"Forget it!" Albert said with a smile: "My predictions are usually accurate, and I believe in what they see."

"Don't say prophecies, you are very accurate." Fred couldn't help whispering. George immediately agreed and nodded in agreement.

"I didn't find much information, but after all I found something." Albert ignored Fred and George and continued: "At that time, I probably guessed what might happen."

"That's the case, so you asked Nicol to help you make that pair of protective glasses. Was it already determined that the monster in the secret room was a basilisk?" Dumbledore was also amazed by Albert's sharp thinking. The result can be derived from only that piece of information.

"What glasses?" Fred and George stared at Albert and looked at the eyes on his face curiously, and suddenly said: "I'll just say why you guy suddenly wears glasses, it turns out these glasses Is it to guard against the basilisk?"

"Well, Nicol said that this pair of glasses should prevent me from dying when I accidentally look directly into the eyes of the basilisk." Albert took off the flat glasses and handed them to Fred. "However, I haven't tried it, so I too I don’t know if the glasses are effective."

"Nico?" Percy raised her eyebrows slightly and asked tentatively, "Which Nico? That wouldn't be that, right!"

"Yes, that's Mr. Nicole LeMay." Albert said of course: "Mr. LeMay is half of my teacher. I can know him thanks to Professor Dumbledore's introduction."

"He's not dead yet?" Harry couldn't help but blurt out. The Philosopher's Stone was destroyed by Professor Dumbledore last year.

"Of course not dead, Harry." Albert stared at Harry slightly dissatisfied. "Even if the Philosopher's Stone is destroyed, they can still live for a few years."

Everyone looked at Harry, then at Albert, opened their mouths in surprise, and looked at Albert with disbelief. They had never thought that Albert actually knew the legendary alchemy. Teacher Nicole Lemay, and he is still half a student of Mr. Nicole Lemay.

Moreover, the news that shocked them the most was: Nico Lemay is dying.

"You knew it in the last semester?" Professor McGonagall's words brought everyone's attention back to the secret room.

"Actually, guessing that the monster in the secret room is a basilisk is very simple, because it is related to Slytherin, and it is a basilisk that can live for thousands of years, and Slytherin is still a snakelike voice, and wants to control the basilisk. Not difficult." Albert took another sip of tea, moistened his throat and continued: "Later, the attack happened and the prophetic text appeared on the wall."

"Why didn't you tell everyone!" Percy's eyes widened and couldn't help asking: "If you could..."

"No, I can't." Albert glared at Percy and told him to shut up before continuing: "Who would believe my nonsense at that time, let alone the professor, even you would not believe it. On the contrary, it will make everyone suspect that I am the murderer. Think for yourself whether there is any truth in what I said."

Albert knew that the principal was suspecting Voldemort at that time.

However, he didn't mean to expose the other party's thoughts, and continued: "Because I am also a Muggle wizard and I am also on the list of attacks, so I started investigating this matter. After all, there is no reason to defend against thieves. If the murderer finds out, he is safe."

Everyone could not help being stunned by Albert's sturdy approach.

"If the murderer knew why he was found out, I don't know what he would think." George murmured.

"Later, Hagrid looked awkward after learning about it, so I asked his age."

"age?"

Everyone showed puzzled eyes.

"Hagrid is sixty-four years old. He should be sixty-five years old now. It is not difficult to calculate that he was studying at Hogwarts." Albert explained briefly, "Hagrid told me when I asked. A similar thing happened fifty years ago."

At this moment, Ron felt that his IQ had been suppressed, and he was relieved after seeing Harry, Fred, and George all looking like this.

It turns out that there is more than one fool!

In fact, no one else in the room can understand Albert's thinking mode. Is this the difference of genius?

"Although Hagrid did not say who the murderer was, if you noticed that Hagrid had never used a magic wand, he was very likely to be expelled from the school. If you link these two things together, you cannot guess Hagrid. It may be the murderer who was caught back then."

"So, I asked directly. Hagrid admitted that he was fired because of what happened fifty years ago." Albert spread his hands and said, "Of course, I believe Hagrid is not the real murderer."

"why?"

Percy could hardly understand Albert's brain circuits.

"Don't you think Hagrid is nothing like Slytherin's heir?" Harry said quietly, "and he doesn't know how to speak snakes, he can't control basilisks, and he is a student of Gryffindor College."

This is the answer Albert gave him.

Fred and George grinned and slapped Percy on the shoulder and joked, "Even if you think about it on your knees," Slytherin's heir cannot be a student at Gryffindor College. "

"Shut up." Mrs. Weasley glared at the twins.

"Later, Hagrid revealed two news to me. It was a guy named Tom Riddle who caught him back then, who seemed to be a Slytherin student." Albert erected the second handcraft and continued: " He said that Aragog was not a murderer. Well, Aragog was an eight-eyed giant spider raised by Hagrid fifty years ago. The eight-eyed giant spiders in the Forbidden Forest are all descendants of that guy. According to the eight-eyed giant spider Arago Ke's revealed that the monster in the secret room is the natural enemy of the eight-eyed giant spider."

"Spiders' eyes can allow them to see a 360-degree field of view. The special eye structure prevents them from closing their eyes completely." Albert noted the confusion on everyone's faces and explained: "When encountering a basilisk At that time, the spider that cannot close its eyes will be killed by its eyes, so the basilisk becomes the natural enemy of the spider."

"The last thing that made me really sure that the monster was a basilisk, it was actually Harry's snake-like voice. Hermione later told me that Harry heard a voice that no one else could hear on Halloween night."

Percy opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything.

"Couldn't Hermione be attacked just because she knew too much?" Ron couldn't help but interject. He always thought it was unusual for Hermione to be attacked.

"Yes, Hermione is also investigating this matter secretly." Albert directly admitted that Hermione's attack was related to this matter. "Later, Hermione told me that Harry found a copy of "Tom Lee Del’s diary", the diary will reply to the writer, and will also take Harry to see the scene where Hagrid was captured fifty years ago, making Harry think that Hagrid may be the murderer who opened the secret room."

Harry lowered his head awkwardly.

"That's when you started to doubt Tom Riddle?" Dumbledore guessed the reason. A person who is proficient in alchemy like Albert clearly knew what that diary might mean.

"Yeah, Riddle's diary really looks suspicious. Later, I went to Harry and found out that his diary had been stolen by a Gryffindor student. I thought it was Ginny who stole it. Riddle’s diary.” Albert glanced at Ginny who was sitting next to Mrs. Weasley, and said his guess, “She probably wrote something in it, afraid of being known by Harry, so she took advantage of it. Harry is not stealing the diary."

"I've been—writing on it." Ginny sobbed in a low voice. "For a whole year, he—he kept writing back to me—"

Mr. Weasley was stunned by Ginny's words.

"That diary should come from Mr. Malfoy." Albert's startling words interrupted what Mr. Weasley wanted to say.

"Is there evidence?"

"Before the beginning of school, you had a fight in the Lihen Bookstore. This incident was also featured in the "Daily Prophet". I think Malfoy should give Ginny the diary at that time. Book."

"I found it in a book my mother gave me."

Albert's words were quickly confirmed by Ginny.

"Why did he do this, why did he kill Ginny!" Mr. Weasley gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with anger, and he began to think about how to get back.

"I think one of his reasons against you should be the Muggle Protection Act."

This sentence stunned the others in an instant, and he didn't expect that Albert would even know this.

"Don't look at me that way, it's not hard to guess." Albert briefly said what was reported in the Daily Prophet, and that Ron and Harry sneaked into Slytherin after drinking a compound medicine. The college inquired about the news.

"That bastard!"

"Actually, you don't have to be angry. I think Mr. Malfoy will soon be unlucky!" Albert said suddenly, "After all, he threatened other school managers, and the conspiracy failed in the end. For hate things, other school managers will definitely retaliate. I think his position as a school manager will be the end."

"Yes, old Malfoy must be unlucky." Fred and George both looked very happy, and they obviously believed in what Albert said.

"Later, I talked to Harry about the secret room and deliberately let Ginny overhear it." Albert raised his hand and pressed, beckoning everyone to keep quiet, and continued, "If Ginny was the murderer, he would definitely not Will easily let me go. In fact, she let the basilisk attack me today. Unfortunately, I was prepared long ago and successfully escaped from the basilisk chase."

"I'm even more curious, how do you know that Tom Riddle is a mysterious man," Harry couldn't help asking. Although he had learned the truth from Tom Riddle, he still couldn't bear it. I want to test Albert to see if this guy really knows everything.

"After Riddle's diary appeared, Tom Riddle became suspicious. If he is the heir to Slytherin, it means he is a snake-like voice." Albert said to Harry with a pause. , "Snake-Laotian is one of the symbols of Slytherin heirs."

"Do you think me too?"

"No, you are at Gryffindor College and can still use Gryffindor's sword. You are undoubtedly a brave Gryffindor student." Albert stopped Fred and George who wanted to talk, and continued: "Tom Riddle was 50 years ago. Now there is no famous wizard named Tom Riddle in the magical world. I even wrote to many old friends. They didn’t know that there was such a wizard, but the magical world did There is a dangerous black wizard who speaks a snakelike voice, yes, that's a mysterious man."

Albert used his wand to write Voldemort's name in the air, and then wrote Tom Riddle's name.

"If you look carefully, you will find that there are many letters in their names that are the same. I think they are missing a middle name. This is why I think Tom Riddle is a mysterious person and control Ginny."

Everyone has been mouth-mouthed since just now, and they were a little numb by Albert's analysis. They listened quietly to Albert's narration and analysis.

"After all, he did something similar last year." Albert gave a light wave, and the golden text floating in the void disappeared.

"His name is Tom Marvolo Riddle, which Voldemort told me himself."

When Harry uttered the three words Voldemort, everyone in the office, except Harry, Dumbledore, and Albert, shuddered when they heard the name.

"So, you didn't want to tell us then?"

"Do you believe that Ginny is the real murderer?" Albert asked rhetorically.

Fred, George, Ron, and Harry all shook their heads. They now understand Albert's original sentence: Even if you tell you it doesn't make sense, because you won't believe it.

Yes, before there is no evidence, how can they doubt their relatives?

"Of course I know that you will not believe it. Most people will not believe it until there is no evidence, so don’t blame me why I didn’t tell the truth. It’s meaningless, just like most wizards don’t want to. Believe in the fact that the mysterious man is still alive." Albert made a simple analogy, "That's why I need to lure him out and come up with evidence to make you believe in this truth."

"I'm very lucky. Tom Riddle got the bait easily because of his brainlessness. He ordered the basilisk to attack me. However, he failed. I probably never dreamed of it. I prepared a large group of roosters for him. When the basilisk encountered the rooster and ran away in a hurry, he made a lot of noise, so Tom had no choice but to hide in the secret room with Ginny, because he knew that I would tell others about it next ."

Everyone admires Albert's bravery, not everyone has the guts to use themselves as bait. If it hadn't been for him to uncover the truth of this matter, everyone would continue to be buried in the dark, and it is unknown how many people would be attacked.

"How do you know that Ginny is fine for the time being?" Ron asked. He obviously hadn't forgotten what he was put into by Albert, and tried to find things Albert didn't know.

"If he wanted to kill Ginny, Ginny would have died long ago. There must be other meaning to keeping it. I think Harry may know what happened." Albert looked at Harry, who was Shook his head.

This time, Riddle obviously had no chance to get out of the diary.

"I think Tom might want to take Ginny as a nutrient." Albert said his guess. "Ginny was pale for a while, a bit like Professor Quirrell last year."

Everyone was looking at Ginny and found that her cheeks were still ruddy, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"I think that when the school board finds that there is no way to solve the problem, it will find Professor Dumbledore again. The principal will definitely be able to solve the problem, so Harry, you don't have to take any risks. I reminded you. Albert said to Harry, "Of course, you are brave, at least more braver than me."

"You are also very brave." Mrs. Weasley gave Albert a hug. "Thank you Albert. If you didn't reveal the truth, Ginny didn't know what would happen."

"What happened to Lockhart?" Professor McGonagall didn't forget about Lockhart.

"Tom Riddle obviously didn't know that Professor Lockhart was a bragging wizard. He probably thought that Lockhart knew the location of the secret room and the general situation of the whole thing after overhearing me and Hermione." He shrugged helplessly and said: "You know, Professor Lockhart said he knows where the secret room is. I also heard that he intends to write a story about himself at Hogwarts based on the attack on the secret room. Books from the time of the black magic professor."

"So, in order to protect the secret room, Tom Riddle controlled Ginny to attack Professor Lockhart, and told him to shut up completely." Albert secretly changed the attack and went smoothly, "I want to use the flashback spell to check Ginny. It’s not difficult to find the spell he used on Lockhart."

Everyone's expressions were extremely complicated, and he didn't expect Lockhart to end up like that.

"Actually, Professor Lockhart may not have done this kind of thing for the first time. I mean stealing the results of being stolen." Looking at the complex people, Albert once again threw a blockbuster, "I think Professor Lockhart is most likely a liar!"

"What secret did you find?" Fred asked in cooperation with George.

"Of course, I don't have sufficient evidence, but in some aspects it is not difficult to see this." Albert pointed out mercilessly: "In fact, Lockhart's level of black magic is very bad, I suspect There are certain spells in the book that Professor Lockhart doesn’t know at all. For this reason, I asked him a lot of questions. Of course, what made me suspicious of him was a spell called Restoring the Humanoid Mantra, which Professor Lockhart gave I have a lot of information. Although I haven't learned this spell, I can see that it is not a random fabrication."

"Of course, the most direct evidence is the information Lockhart gave me. He probably didn't take it seriously. There are a few clips on it in Armenian. Well, at first, I actually didn’t know what the text was. I found out that it was Armenian only after I found someone to check it.” Albert continued to say to the puzzled people: “Then, I asked someone to ask for me. It is said that sometime before the 1980s, a very brave and quite The accomplished old Armenian wizard in Wagga Wagga, Australia, successfully helped the local residents subdue a terrifying and fierce werewolf."

"You mean Lockhart stole the deeds of that wizard?"

"I heard that the old wizard seems to be very forgetful now. I think he may be erased by Professor Lockhart." Albert said maliciously, "So, what he gave me It is probably something taken from the old wizard's house. Of course, these are my guesses, and there is no evidence of deeds!"

This time, everyone was blown up by the blockbuster that Albert threw out. They didn't expect the famous Lockhart to be a liar.

"Okay, everything has been sorted out. This time it is obviously not Miss Weasley's fault. The school will not punish her. She should go to the school hospital immediately and ask Mrs. Pomfrey to examine her. A moment. UU Reading " Dumbledore looked at Albert with a smile again, "Exciting reasoning. Without Mr. Albert, we would probably be kept in the dark. Of course, still With Harry, you bravely saved Miss Weasley. Both of you won the Special Contribution Award to the school. Well, let me think... Each of you won two hundred points for Gryffindor."

"I think Hagrid should be released. Azkaban Prison is not a good place." Albert reminded Dumbledore again "kindly".

"You are right, I will write a letter to Azkaban right away... We should have our hunting ground guards come back." Dumbledore said softly, "I also need to draft a job advertisement to post in "Daily Prophet." We need a new teacher to teach Defence Against the Dark Arts class. My goodness, the teacher in this class consumes so quickly, isn't it?"

"Perhaps Lockhart should resign early, maybe he will be able to escape." Albert said without hesitation, "The curse of Defense Against the Dark Arts professor is terrible."

"I think what you need now is to eat something and get a good night's sleep. I will let the house elves prepare food for you." Dumbledore changed the subject.

Albert shrugged and left Professor McGonagall's office with everyone.
