The Shopkeeper of All Worlds in the British Wizarding World

Chapter 343 New Information

"What does Principal Dumbledore want me to do at night?" At eight o'clock in the evening, Ryan walked towards the principal's office in a daze.When I heard what Harry said in the afternoon, I felt very strange, because Harry had a nightmare that had nothing to do with me. It always felt a little wrong to be called to the principal's office suddenly under such circumstances.

"Cockroach pile." After reading the password, Ryan successfully entered the principal's office.

"Good evening, Professor Dumbledore." Ryan greeted Principal Dumbledore sitting behind the big golden desk.

"Good night, Ryan." Dumbledore greeted after seeing Ryan enter the door, and then put part of his memory into the surging pensieve. "This is the memory of Harry meeting me and the memory of me going out to do errands in the afternoon. You can take a look."

Ryan nodded, then stuck his head into the Pensieve.The first memory is Harry's narration of his dream in the afternoon, but there are a little more details than when he narrated to Ryan, and there are not many important points worthy of attention.

What matters is the second memory, in which Dumbledore came to a large house full of boxes.The house doesn't have any windows, it's a bit like an underground warehouse.

It's just that what makes Ryan feel abnormal is that something is covered with a white cloth on the ground, and some people in Auror uniforms are walking around.

"Kingsley, what happened here?" Dumbledore walked over to ask a black wizard at this time.

"Damn!" replied the wizard known as Kingsley. "Usually our manpower will not come to Knockturn Alley, but we will send people here to patrol here recently. When Percy Weasley's patrol team patrolled the gate of Poison Spirit this afternoon, they suddenly found that it should be open normally. The door was closed today, and even the back of the window was covered with a layer of cloth.”

"Percy Weasley, who led the team, felt that something was wrong and knocked on the door, but there was no response. This matter was reported to the Ministry." Having said this, Kingsley leaned over and whispered, "You told us to pay attention After receiving the news of the abnormality of the potion distribution point, I brought my Aurors over to check, and I saw this scene."

"How much is the loss of personnel?" Dumbledore asked, looking at the things covered by the white cloth on the ground.

"A clerk died at the front desk. The boss, another clerk and two guards all died in the warehouse. They were all killed by the death curse." Speaking of this, Kingsley showed a slightly horrified expression: "There is still a lot of trouble at the scene." Found traces of a large snake crawling, and the appraiser of the shop is missing. Dumbledore, it can't be the one—”

"That's what you think, and that's what I told you to face when I summoned you." Dumbledore said seriously, "How much is lost?"

"One-third of the medicines are the most precious batch. This store is actually a distribution center for medicines in the British underground market, so we haven't compiled specific statistics yet."

"Boss, we have a discovery." It was an Auror who suddenly called to Kingsley.Following Dumbledore's footsteps, Ryan came to the end of the warehouse. The boxes piled up there were a little different. There was no ash on the top boxes in the middle.

Dumbledore flicked his wand, and the chest moved away, revealing a fireplace hidden behind.An Auror waved a strange silver instrument around the fireplace, and when it was taken out, the formerly transparent crystal set in the center of the instrument turned red.

"Found an illegal Floo fireplace," the Auror said, turning to Dumbledore and Kingsley. "Someone used this fireplace to go abroad before."

"Hurry up and see where that man went?" Kingsley urged the Auror, but Dumbledore didn't hold out much hope and just stood there quietly.Sure enough, after gesturing with the instrument for a while, the Auror said with a frustrated face: "The other party has completely messed up his magic traces. We can only confirm that he has left from England."

Seeing this, this memory is over. Ryan came out of the pensieve. Dumbledore was sitting behind the desk tapping the table with his index finger. Seeing that Ryan had finished watching, he stopped tapping.

"Harry made contact with Voldemort. What do you think this means? I want you to tell the truth, not the ones who comforted Harry." Dumbledore asked.

"This is not a simple nightmare." Ryan first defined, "One person can see what another person is doing, the most likely is the fusion of souls between them. Pure blood will not cause this effect, according to Based on the knowledge I obtained before, I speculated that Harry might have accidentally obtained a part of that person's broken soul on the night his parents died. Or simply put, Harry was the Horcrux that that person made in an accident. His Parseltongue proves it."

The two people in the office fell into silence, and Dumbledore rubbed his temples and asked, "As I expected, I guessed that you might have seen a lot of things before, but the only thing I didn't expect was that you had already reached this point in the analysis. From the performance of your alchemy when you registered for the Triwizard Tournament, I can see that it is very different from the current popular alchemy, and your level is not low. So I would like to ask you if there is any way to solve Harry's problem? "

"Temporarily—there is no good way." Ryan thought for a while and said, "If there is still hope to separate that person's soul fragments from dead objects, such as the ring from last time, this kind of soul that has grown up with Harry to this day It is far more difficult to peel off fragments than to peel off dead objects. I have several ways to destroy the soul fragments of the person on Harry, but none of them can guarantee Harry's safety."

"You said, temporarily?" Dumbledore extracted a key word from a lot of Ryan's answers.

"After all, this kind of operation requires a strong reserve of magic and knowledge, but I have only been in contact with magic for four years at most, and the accumulation is far from enough compared to most wizards. So I can only say that I can't do it, but it doesn't mean I can't go on with the knowledge I have." Ryan began to narrate a fact.

"That's right." Dumbledore smiled relieved after hearing this sentence. "Anyway, Voldemort has escaped from England now, of course he will come back, but it will take some time until he solves his problems. We still have enough time to do some things for the time being."

At this time, the portrait of Phineas suddenly appeared on the canvas, and then a voice rang out: "Dumbledore, Fudge refuses to disclose the details of the case of the Lane, and hopes to treat this case as a simple Rush of Dark Wizards .”

"I can accept not mentioning the possible name of the criminal, but it must be shown that this was done by a dark wizard. Let everyone be more vigilant." Dumbledore said to the portrait on the wall.

"Okay, I'll make another trip. But I guess Fudge wants to get over it." Phineas shrugged helplessly before disappearing again.

"We are always like this. When facing the enemy, we have to meet our own people to hold us back." Dumbledore complained a little and quickly adjusted his mentality. "Okay, I got it. If you have any new progress, you can directly inform me. My door here is always open to you."

Hearing this sentence, Ryan quickly got up and said goodbye.When he was about to go out, Dumbledore suddenly asked, "You don't know how to make Horcruxes, do you?"

"Of course, I have a better way on the road to immortality. Why choose such a troublesome way?" Ryan finally replied when leaving the office.
