I Have a Big Problem with My Hogwarts

After listening to Lynn's analysis, Dumbledore pondered for a while before speaking.

"The first question may only have a reasonable explanation. The reason why the mastermind behind the basilisk has set you as the first target of the basilisk is because he found out that you were chasing him, and if this matter is confirmed, then the first The second and third questions will be clear. The person who can know that you are tracking him must be a long-term resident of Hogwarts, and the person who lives in Hogwarts and has the ability to use Apparition is the most likely. It's the house-elves."

Lynn naturally thought of this possibility, but he didn't forget that when he was in the first year, Kira took advantage of the free use of Apparition in Hogwarts to take revenge for him twice in a row, even if it was The Auror came and didn't catch it, because no one could have imagined that a house-elves would do anything to harm a wizard.

"But it also doesn't rule out a possible professor. As you said, since he can control Hubert, he can definitely control other people, and it may not be possible for him to control a house elf."

"So this matter needs to be carefully investigated. Tomorrow I will arrange for Filch to go to the kitchen to ask if any of the house-elves in the castle have a rest tonight. Do you want to go with him too?" Dumbledore asked. road.

Lynn was a little moved, but he finally shook his head: "Forget it, tomorrow I have two big classes for fifth grade and sixth grade, and I don't have time to pass."

He drank the last sip of black tea in the teacup, and without letting the teapot refill himself, he asked, "What will you do with Hogwarts after that?"

"The matter of the secret room cannot be disclosed to the students for the time being, but we must ensure that those children are not harmed." Dumbledore stated the fundamental principle, "I will inform Minerva and the others to take precautions, and arrangements will be made at night. People stay vigil in the castle, and you can't turn a blind eye to such a thing as a night tour."

Lynn spread his hands and said Dumbledore's current predicament: "There are too few professors, and most of them have classes during the day, and they can't sleep all night, and there are only thousands of thieves who can be thieves for thousands of days. The truth of Japanese defense against thieves."

"There is no way. Why did the mastermind behind the scenes take away the basilisk, and we don't know what kind of malice he has towards Hogwarts. There is no other better way than prevention."

"Hogwarts has something to do with the entrance to the Hogsmeade Underground Treasure, Professor, you don't know? Don't you fully control the castle?"

Dumbledore shook his head: "So, I said you went in the wrong direction, Lynn, I can completely control the castle, but it doesn't mean that I know every place in the castle, and Hogwarts is not only Only the castle, the surrounding Black Lake, the stadium including the Forbidden Forest are all part of Hogwarts."

Hearing him say that, Lynn was stunned.

Only then did he realize that he had actually entered a misunderstanding.

Dumbledore is right, Hogwarts is a school, and this school is not just made up of castles, it has other locations, just not as conspicuous as the castle.

But it is precisely because it is not conspicuous that it is the best place to hide things.

"It's definitely not enough to just sit back and wait. We still have to keep looking for the exit of the treasure trove at Hogwarts."

"If you have time, try to investigate this matter, hoping to find something good."

Lynn looked at him with strange eyes: "What about you, professor?"

Dumbledore blinked, looking slightly tired.

"Although I like my identity as an educator the most, other identities also take up most of my time. The relationship between the Ministry of Magic of various countries needs to be regulated and communicated by the International Federation of Wizards. Wizards who have made great contributions and vote for their medals, my friend Nick Lemay also wants me to accompany him to discuss alchemy with him before he dies, and things in Hogwarts are also important, but I have other work to do before the basilisk thing blows up."

"Hogwarts is really short of people right now. If the draft reform you showed me last semester went smoothly, I guess there would not be such a problem." He raised his head and asked: "Now that something like this happens in the school, right? Did your original plan have any impact?"

Lynn smiled bitterly and said, "The impact is very big, but this is not an important matter. The key is to eliminate the potential dangers of Hogwarts."

"We can't be in a hurry with this kind of thing. We have to wait for the enemy to reveal their flaws first. Well, it's already past midnight. You have to go to class tomorrow, so go to rest early." Dumbledore stood up and motioned to Lynn can leave.

Lynn has no reason to stay any longer. He has said everything he should have said. Dumbledore is right. They are now revealing that the enemy is in the dark, so they can only wait patiently until the enemy reveals their flaws.

Lynn left the headmaster's room, leaving Dumbledore alone again.

After Lynn left, Dumbledore didn't put on his pajamas to go to rest. He did it again and went back to the chair again, dabbling lightly on the table with his fingers for a long time.

After a long time, he waved to Fox, who was dozing on the branch, and the phoenix flapped its wings and flew to his shoulder.

"Go to the Owl Post Office in Hogsmeade."

The red light lit up, and Fox took Dumbledore away from the headmaster's room and disappeared, while their figures resurfaced in another place.

It's a small log cabin with a clean and neat layout, but there's a lingering smell of owl shit.

The lights in the wooden house are bright, and even at this time, the owner of the house has no intention of going to sleep.

There were two tea cups on the small wooden table in the center of the room, and curling white water vapor rose from the mouth of the cups. It was obvious that the two cups of hot tea had just been poured out not long ago.

The owner of the house seemed to have already known Dumbledore's arrival and prepared hot tea in advance.

Granny Daniel narrowed her eyes, covered with a thin blanket, and lay peacefully on the rocking chair.

"It's really a rare visitor, Headmaster Dumbledore. I haven't come here to visit my old classmates for so long, and I didn't even bring a gift."

Dumbledore sat down at the end of the wooden table and smiled helplessly.

"I just finished chatting with a student, and I didn't have time to prepare a gift for you."

Granny Daniel laughed, her laughter was not kind at all, and it felt more like a bad witch in a fairy tale.
