Archaeologists at Hogwarts

Chapter 424 The Endless Dinner Party
423 An Endless Dinner Party
In his second school year, Professor Highmore had the ghostly blood man Barrow and Ms. Gray give a class to several people alone, explaining the magic related to the soul.

The essence of this class was actually all due to the Coronet Horcrux, and then the class was suddenly stopped for unknown reasons.

But there was a small episode in the process——Harry was mistaken by Ms. Gray as the direct disciple of the bloody Barrow, so that she was unwilling to continue teaching, so she replaced it with Pandora to teach the students. Classes - at that time she was already able to speak in the form of a notebook.

Cedric was also Luna's mother whom she formally met at that time, but she never had a chance to continue dealing with her after that.

Now, Luna came to Cedric's house as a guest with a Pandora notebook. These people didn't even have time to eat dinner, just to take a look at Cedric's self-casting wand.

Cedric froze for a moment when he heard the request.

"Of course I can lend it to you, but may I ask why?"

A friendly answer came from the Pandora Notebook, as if it had expected Cedric to ask such a question.

"It's very simple, child, maybe you can't understand the next paragraph - but I have decided to do what Toby said - that is, become a devil, only in this way can I stay with Luna for a long time around."

"But there's one more problem here - in order to become a controllable devil, I don't need a brand new body, but more or less a wand. I don't think Mr. Ollivander can make one It's a wand made for devils, so I'll have to figure it out myself—yours might be fine."

"This is just my guess. If I have a magic wand, maybe I will be more controllable. But what if it is a magic wand that can cast spells automatically? No one knows the result, but I still want to give it a try."

Cedric stared blankly at the group in front of him.

Ron obviously knew the news a long time ago, he just buried his head in eating his snacks, and didn't mind Ginny staring at him in the slightest.

And Luna, she just stared at Cedric so eagerly.

Although he couldn't see what her eyes meant, Cedric still felt that if he refused, nothing good would happen.

"Does Professor Highmore know about this?"

Cedric asked with a tangled face: "Do we need to report in advance, after all, this matter sounds like a big deal."

"I knew you would ask that." There was a smile in Pandora's tone: "Show it to him, Luna."

Luna took out a letter from her bosom, and Cedric took the letter over and read it carefully——

【Dear Luna, and Pandora:】

[As a half-devil, I have to say your idea is simply brilliant.You are right, the wand helps to stabilize the wizard's mental state, which is why I have always attached so much importance to my black walnut wand-even after I got the magic ball and scepter, I didn't give it up. 】

【Go ahead and find my lovely student.Although we can't predict the consequences now, you have decided to become a devil. Is there anything worse than this? 】

【Mr. Diggory, my advice to you is not to refuse. This is very important whether it is the research of your automatic casting wand or the knowledge related to the devil in advance. It is a very rare opportunity. 】

[If something goes wrong, please notify me in time and keep in touch. 】

【Toby Highmore】

At the end of this reply, there is a small paw print of Al - but if you look carefully, you can find that it is a very complicated magic circle.

This is a sign unique to Professor Haimer, and it is impossible to go wrong.

After reading it, Cedric raised his head in disbelief: "Am I going to learn about devils too? I thought my research direction would be the patron saint."

"It's not a conflict." Ron said carelessly, "Professor Highmore never said that devils and patron saints are mutually exclusive."

He still remembered that Professor Highmore actually had his own patron saint, but it became Mr. Al.

"Perhaps there is another reason."

At this time, Pandora suddenly said: "Toby's current situation is a bit complicated—generally speaking, he needs help very much, whether it's me or you, Cedric."

"I think you should also think about this in advance—even if we are about to face the same enemy, we still have to choose which side to stand between Dumbledore and Toby."

Hogwarts.

The magic car landed on the empty playground, and then drove forward for a certain distance.The car lights shone on the oak gate of the castle, and also illuminated the figure who had been waiting in front of the gate for some time.

Toby said from the driver's seat: "Go back to the office first, I'll be back in a while."

Angela quietly led Al out of the car. She nodded slightly to the figure who came to the door, and walked into the oak door after seeing him get into the magic car.

Principal McGonagall was sitting in the co-pilot's seat. She kept looking at the interior decoration and instruments of the car, and finally nodded and said, "It's a good means of transportation. I should get one after I retire."

Toby imagined the scene of Principal McGonagall driving a magic car speeding through the air, and he couldn't help but wonder if Gryffindors all had a hobby of drag racing—Sirius once had a modified motorcycle, which was later given to Gryffindor. Hagrid.

Professor McGonagall is not the kind of inkblot character. She mentioned one thing soon after saying this casually.

"I remember you said before that after this semester is over, I will willingly give up the position of principal. But now it seems that I have waited for nothing, not even a decent attack."

Toby sighed helplessly.

"Don't think so badly of me, how could I attack others casually--and that's actually a joke, the deeper meaning is that after I become a god of death, it's actually almost dead. I He will solve all the troublesome characters in the wizarding world at once, and then Hogwarts will remember me and give me an honorary headmaster title or something. It's a pity that Merlin didn't agree. He is so cruel. What step do I need to do? Row?"

Mag turned his head and stared at Toby silently for a while.

"So, what Dumbledore said is true—you actually thought about committing suicide? Why?"

Toby was silent for a short while.

"The pain in your heart is also pain. Dumbledore once enlightened you on the loss of your beloved, but he couldn't help me. On the contrary, his methods only made my pain worse. From the beginning, I I believed in the wrong person, the person who can really help me is not Dumbledore, if it is a living Slytherin, maybe there is still a chance."

Mag obviously disagreed with Toby's statement. She shook her head and said, "But in this way, there will only be one more bastard in the wizarding world who is more cruel than the mysterious man. Do you hope that you will become like this?"

Toby thought about it carefully, and he replied seriously: "My method should be more gentle-otherwise I wouldn't have invested such a large amount of savings in "The Quibbler". If there is no wish box Bottom line, I'm already bankrupt by now."

"You are really honest." Mag was very speechless.

Obviously, she was also having a headache about how Dumbledore could teach such a student—so stubborn and unwilling to change the deep-rooted thoughts in her heart, it was almost like Dumbledore himself.

He also never gave up on teaching others what it means to love.

There was silence in the car for a long time, so long that Toby wanted to ask whether he should take McGonagall to have a taste of the charm of magic cars in advance - he knew that there are many car models in the Muggle world, among them is a Rolls Rice is much better than this Ford Anglia 105E luxury sedan, and its shape looks more handsome, which is very in line with McGonagall's style.

"You and Dumbledore."

Well, this is another person who came to persuade them to reconcile.

Toby didn't want to listen to these words, and his eyes quickly scanned the outside of the car window, hoping to find something to divert the topic.

Maybe it's because the ubiquitous Merlin heard Toby's voice—a snow-white owl flew straight towards the magic car, panting.

"Look, that's a—Hedwig? Is that Harry's owl?"

Toby rolled down the car window suspiciously. He let Hedwig fly in and took the letter he had just written from its feet.

【Dear Toby:】

[After moving to the new home, I think it is necessary to invite some guests to be guests.Are you interested in this?Of course, Angela and Al are also welcome. 】

[In addition, I have already invited Dumbledore, his hometown is also in Godric's Hollow, so it is convenient to come over anytime. 】

【Whether you want to come or not is up to you to decide. 】

【Lily Evans】

Mag also saw the contents of the letter. She raised one eyebrow, looked at Toby and said, "So, your former boss gave you an order? What are you going to do?"

Toby kept shaking his head from side to side, obviously not convinced by Mag's statement.

"What do you mean she is the leader, it's obviously me - Lily and Severus have always been my subordinates, but they stopped listening to me when they grew up."

"You can say whatever you want." Mag had an expression that he couldn't bear to poke, and the corners of his mouth curled up quietly.

Toby sighed deeply, he didn't even think about losing his temper.

"I sometimes wonder who is getting the extra attention from Dumbledore - Lily is doing exactly the same thing as him without being so obnoxious - no wonder she's been so popular. Unlike me, Very few people liked me at school, and it seems the same now."

Mag snorted mercilessly.

"If you really think so, then why would anyone want to talk to you? Even if no one really likes you anymore, don't forget that there is a bloody Barrow in the school—he always wants you to be The next ghost heir."

Toby slumped down in his seat.

"Don't mention him, why would such a person refuse to let me go even after death?"

After the dinner, James promised Lily to meet someone with her tonight.

They squeezed through the air and emerged on a brightly lit street, where the street lamps were still shining even though it was late at night and Harry was fast asleep.

James knew where they were by looking at his surroundings.

"You don't have to come to see her, can't you just let everything go?"

Lily shook her head.

"I don't usually think about her, but this time I was alone for too long, long enough for me to remember all the little things. There has to be an end."
-
The Dursleys had been a lot quieter since Harry moved out.

They were more rejoicing—the scary Professor Haimer finally no longer had a reason to patronize here. He was exactly the same as the wanted man in the news. Who knew how crazy he would go.

Petunia fell asleep after comforting Dudley as usual, she turned over in a daze, for some reason, the originally wide bed suddenly became narrow, causing her to fall off the edge of the bed.

It woke her up.

After opening her eyes, she inexplicably felt that the surrounding environment was a little strange. The layout in front of her was not a bedroom, but a living room.

How could she fall asleep on the sofa?

"We haven't seen each other for a long time, Petunia."

In the darkness, an extremely familiar voice came over, startling Petunia.

The light was turned on suddenly, and Petunia watched the face in her memory reappear in front of her. She wanted to scream, but all the shock turned into a wordless silence.

"Petunia, why are you abusing my son?"

Lily stared closely at Petunia's eyes, her eyes were moist: "I always thought that you would at least keep something for me, no matter what it is, at least it must be a good thing. But you shouldn't abuse my son."

"I" Petunia suddenly became terrified, she kept retreating on the carpet, but the sofa blocked all escape routes.

Lily took a lot of effort not to let herself cry. After she calmed down, she said: "But you also raised her, even if it was abusive, but you also raised him and forgot all about it."

The light of the spell flashed, and the expression on Petunia's face became dull.

Then Lily went to Dudley and Vernon's room, and wiped out everything related to magic in their minds—including her and Harry's figure, and all the wizards they had come into contact with, were completely wiped out.

James waited silently at the door.

The door opened again, and Lily walked out with red eyes.

"Let's go." She said tearfully.

James knew that it was useless to say anything at this time, he clenched one of Lily's hands in the palm of his hand, and took his wand with the other hand.

With the sound of explosion in the air, from then on, the two families broke off all ties.

There must always be a conclusion.
