Chapter 70 The Old Man Has a Dirty Heart
Aaron clearly felt Snape's relief, and he was more certain that he knew Voldemort might be in Hogwarts, and that he might be plotting against the Philosopher's Stone.
But he was also sure that Snape could not be Voldemort's accomplice, otherwise his resurrection potion would not be safe at all, because a Dark Lord in his prime would definitely be able to take Snape out of Hogwarts unscathed.
"Professor, can you tell me who else knows about this now?"
Snape took a deep breath and looked at Aaron with a smile, "Don't worry too much, not many people know about it, except for the people last night, there are only two people."
"That's good, it won't be too troublesome to deal with." Aaron was relieved, as long as the other insider was not Professor Quirrell, his safety could still be guaranteed.
But it couldn't be Quirrell at all. Voldemort took two spells with Quirrell's body last night. Even if he didn't care about this injury, he had to take care of the lingering Voldemort.
It is estimated that except for class, he will try to reduce his exposure and stay in the office.
"But the other insider is not as easy to talk to as me." Snape smiled meaningfully, pouring a large basin of cold water on Aaron's heart, "You have to go to the principal's office with me, our principal is waiting for you there."
"Principal? Albus Dumbledore?" Aaron asked in surprise, "He also knows?"
"What do you think?
You know Hagrid well.
Although I don't like him, he has his own uniqueness in being able to stay in Hogwarts for so many years.
It's just that he is too loyal to Dumbledore, and there are almost no secrets in front of him. After coming out of the Forbidden Forest last night, he went to the principal's office overnight."
"Very beautiful!" Aaron's face was more bitter, and he wanted to cry but had no tears. "No one in Hogwarts is more difficult to deal with than Dumbledore. It's really troublesome."
"You seem to know him very well?" Snape asked curiously, "I don't know if you have any intersection with him."
"Don't get me wrong, professor.
I am not familiar with the principal, and my understanding of Dumbledore is limited to books. The introduction. An Anxin is the elderly. But when you meet those who are well -known and live in high, they are more vigilant, because these people are old and unsold. I accidentally sold it. Alas! Aaron, I have a discouragement, can I let me see your book? "" Impossible, you died! That very thick book was the ancestral teachings passed down by his family for thousands of years, and it has been constantly improved.
It has no magic power, and does not record any valuable spells. It is just an ordinary book, but it is not something that outsiders can read casually.
"Okay! I am abrupt." Snape said, and then opened the door, "Come with me!"
"Professor, can I not go?"
"Of course, I am also happy to be idle.
But if Dumbledore doesn't wait for you, he will probably take the initiative to find you next."
"Then I'd better go!"
The two came to the eighth floor of the castle, and Aaron followed Snape to stand in front of a gargoyle.
"Lemon tea!"
Snape recited the command, and the gargoyle jumped aside. The wall behind it split in two, and a spiral staircase that slowly moved upwards appeared.
After walking up the stairs to a door, Snape pushed the door open and entered directly.
"Headmaster, I've brought the person you're looking for."
"Thank you for your hard work." Dumbledore was tidying up the bookshelf on the stairs with his back to the two of them. "Aaron Gaius, you're the first student to come to my office this semester."
"I'm flattered." Aaron said with a fake smile.
He looked around the round room and had to admit that it was much better than Snape's office.
It was more spacious and bright, without the smell of various potions mixed together.
There were various silver utensils on the lockers, and portraits of past headmasters on the walls, through which you could see the voices and smiles of these celebrities.
Although they were just a group of old men who had passed away, the fact that they were placed here by the contemporary White Devil was enough to prove their abilities when they were alive.
There was a gilded perch on the desk, and a strange bird with red feathers stood on it, staring at Abe with sharp eyes, as if it had discovered something interesting.
Abe also looked at the strange bird curiously, with a little more brilliance in his lively eyes, and then... wiped the drool from the corner of his mouth.
He also saw the dozing Sorting Hat on the shelf, and a giant waving at him with an awkward smile...
Giant?
Giant...
Fuck!
Hagrid.
Aaron was no longer sleepy, and looked at him angrily, and he had already pulled out the black wand.
Hagrid shuddered in his heart and slowly moved towards Dumbledore, fearing that Aaron would not be able to restrain himself from casting a spell on him.
He also knew that what he did was not kind, but such a big thing happened in the Forbidden Forest, and for the safety of Hogwarts, he could only report to Dumbledore.
For a person as rigorous as him, details naturally cannot be missed.
"Why are you hiding? I won't hit you."
"That's hard to say." Hagrid said guiltily.
"You still know!" Aaron sneered, "Just for what you did, it's reasonable for me to beat you up. If I can't beat you..."
"Sorry!"
"I've heard these two words too many times recently.
Hagrid, I just want to ask you, what did I do to offend you that you are targeting me everywhere?"
"I...this..." Hagrid's eyes dodged, and he explained in a panic: "In fact, this is really just a misunderstanding. I didn't mean it."
"Do you think I will believe it?"
"Okay." Dumbledore walked down the stairs slowly, "It doesn't matter whether it was intentional or not.
Aaron, you are a smart kid, you should know what I mean."
"I know." Aaron glared at Hagrid fiercely, "It's already happened, and there's not much point in holding someone accountable."
"Thank you!"
"Don't rush to thank me, Hagrid.
You'd better control your mouth and think twice before speaking."
"I know!"
Aaron shook his head, not expecting much from Hagrid's promise.
"Please sit down! Mr. Gaius." Dumbledore sat at the desk and looked at Aaron with a smile.
Aaron was not embarrassed, and pulled Abe from the ground and sat on the chair.
"Professor, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Didn't Professor Snape tell you?" Dumbledore asked meaningfully, "I thought you knew?"
"What he said is different from what you said."
"Okay!
Hagrid told me some things that happened last night, including the unicorn being attacked by the black robe man, and the fact that you have a very special potion." Dumbledore paused slightly, "Aaron, can you let me see the potion?"
"I'm very sorry, I'm afraid that's not possible." Aaron said seriously.
"Headmaster, I've seen it." Snape's face was solemn. "The effect is very strong and incredible. It can instantly restore a dying person to the best condition, and even revive a life that has just died.
But it can't do anything for a life that has been dead for a long time."
Dumbledore's eyes were stern when he heard this, but he quickly returned to normal and smiled gently, "This is already amazing."
"Professor Dumbledore, if you want to know about my potion, please forgive me for rejecting it.
From yesterday to now, the bottle has been opened twice, and a small part of it has evaporated."
"Don't get me wrong, I don't mean that." Dumbledore said with a smile, "I want to ask if you can give me the bottle of potion for safekeeping?"
"What?" Aaron was stunned.
What do you mean? Others just take a look, why are you so aggressive?
You are the White Devil, you are powerful, but you can't bully others!
"Professor, I may have heard it wrong." Aaron frowned, "You said that I should give you the resurrection potion for safekeeping?"
"I'm sorry, you didn't hear it wrong."
Dumbledore felt embarrassed to force a junior like this.
But thinking of his own plan, he still shamelessly made this request.
"Give me a reason, or why?" Aaron said lightly, "Even if you are the principal, you have no right to force students to hand over their things."
Other people in the office looked at each other, not expecting Aaron to be so tough in front of the principal.
"Aaron, you also saw last night that there was a black-robed man hiding in Hogwarts.
He is very dangerous and urgently needs to replenish his vitality, so... this is also for your safety.
I can promise that the original items will be returned after the holiday."
