In this Hogwarts without a savior

Chapter 153 151. Age Restriction
"He's thin and not tall, probably a head taller than Jon."

Gabriel uses Jon to make a comparison.

"The age is not very old, about the same as my father, and the voice is very kind. When I came to my house for the first time, I gave my sister and me a gift. The one I gave was a little bear puppet."

Dumbledore's eyes showed thought, and he continued to ask.

"Do you still remember that he went home and discussed something with your father?"

Gabriel shook her head.

"I didn't hear it. Dad usually doesn't let my sister and I be around when discussing things. But after that meeting, my father was very angry, and my mother didn't speak at the side. The person kept apologizing and then left my house. gone."

Gabriel remembered this incident very clearly, and she described the complete details of the time, but the information did not seem to provide them with any effective clues.

First of all, the fact that a French wizard Gabriel had met appeared on the carriage itself was very puzzling.

Dumbledore rubbed his thumbs, then asked.

"How long ago did he come to your father? Is it very close to the time when your family was wanted?"

"Just a week before my parents and my sister escaped from France."

"Then can you still remember which room in the carriage you saw this person? If you really forget, you can tell me where you went last night."

Gabriel tried hard to remember.

"I came out of the dormitory, first went to sit on the roof of the car for a while, then returned to the car in the middle of the night, and floated along the room on the left side of the hall, and then I didn't know which room I was floating into. When I arrived at a teapot that was very similar to my home, I thought of my parents and sister, and then I seemed to think of or see that person."

she hesitated.

"Professor Dumbledore, I'm not sure if I actually saw that person, I was crying at the time..."

Dumbledore comforted her softly.

"It doesn't matter, whether you saw this wizard on the carriage or not, it has helped us a lot, kid. Don't worry too much about the dementor. This creature is actually not that scary. It It’s just that it’s easy to evoke negative emotions in people’s hearts. If you still feel bad, you can go to the fifth room in the greenhouse, where there is a garden cultivated by Lily, which is very good for people who need to relax.”

Gabriel thanked Dumbledore and did not stay in the principal's office any longer.

After she left, only Jon and Dumbledore were left in the principal's room.

Jon looked at Dumbledore and couldn't help asking.

"Professor, is there really going to be a French wizard coming to Hogwarts?"

Dumbledore tapped his fingers on the table rhythmically and shook his head.

"This matter can't be confirmed so quickly. I need to contact that Ms. Roland to confirm whether there is such a person in the French Ministry of Magic according to Gabriel's description."

"What if this person is someone from the French Ministry of Magic?"

Dumbledore's eyes became deep, and he said solemnly.

"That means things are going in the worst direction."

He didn't say what the worst-case scenario was, but Jon could hear the seriousness in Dumbledore's tone.

"Then how do we catch the man lurking in the carriage?"

When Jon asked about this, Dumbledore showed a slightly relaxed look on his face.

"What do you think, if the Dark Lord really sent someone to the carriage, what kind of person would this person be?"

Jon thought about this question very seriously.

"He should be very capable, otherwise it would be a problem to sneak into the carriage. Then, he needs to face a lot of psychological pressure, because you are always in the carriage, which is more stressful than the pressure I had when I sneaked into the castle. After all, Voldemort Not always in the castle. Secondly, he must have enough eloquence, otherwise it is impossible to persuade Percy to rebel, unless he uses the Imperius Curse."

"Then how old do you think such a person should be?"

Dumbledore's question made Jon hesitate for a moment.

To be honest, lurking in the carriage is far more difficult than Jon sneaking into Hogwarts castle.

There are fewer students here, and the scope of activities is less, and it is impossible for the professors to ignore any students, and Dumbledore is in the carriage for the whole process.

What's more, the reason why Jon was able to feel like a fish in water in Hogwarts Castle was mainly because he got the two lurking artifacts, the Invisibility Cloak and the Marauder's Map, and because he had read the original book, he had a better understanding of that castle than most people. More familiar, plus Jon himself is not an ordinary 12-year-old kid.

The situation in the carriage is completely different. It is more than ten times more difficult to hide here and then do things. Jon doesn't think that Voldemort can send anyone here to complete such a task. After all, it must be one of the Death Eaters. The elites can't be the kind of brainless reckless.

"If someone in the carriage really sneaked in, then he must be an adult wizard." Jon said with certainty.

Dumbledore apparently felt the same way as Jon.

"The wizard who sneaked into the carriage must be an adult wizard, and in that Hogwarts castle, how did the Dark Lord prevent adult wizards from sneaking in, we can do the same."

If Jon couldn't think of what Dumbledore said at this time, then his brain would be in vain. He looked at Dumbledore.

"age limit?"

"Yes." Dumbledore nodded and said, "I didn't set such an age restriction on the carriage before, because this is not only a school but also a temporary meeting place for the Order of the Phoenix, but that doesn't mean we can't do it."

A slightly relaxed smile appeared on Jon's face at this time.

"As long as an age limit is added to the protection on the carriage, then all adult wizards except the professor will be caught!"

Dumbledore also smiled.

"However, this matter still needs to be prepared. Imposing an age restriction on the entire carriage is different from ordinary spellcasting. If I want to maintain the effect, I have to arrange it for a long time. During this period, I still need to be cautious on the carriage. "

"I remember that you still have a charm class in the afternoon, and now the time is almost up, so don't be late."

Jon didn't stay in the principal's office, otherwise he would really be late for Charms class.

After he left, Dumbledore pulled a yellowed parchment from his desk.

He held the ink-stained quill, thought for a moment, and then wrote a paragraph on the parchment.
