I can enter Hogwarts in the last days

Chapter 362 So that’s it, the truth is revealed

Ian continued to look down, he was a little curious about when Dumbledore would leave office.

The year 1996 in the original work is obviously not the old principal's limit, but he died early because of the curse of Gunter's old house ring.

One thing I have to mention here is that resigning is really not death, but that Hogwarts has found a more suitable principal, thus completing a transition between the old and the new.

Closer to home.

As his eyes shifted, Ian finally saw some familiar names:

“……菲尼亚斯·奈杰勒斯·布莱克（1890~1925）、阿曼多·迪佩特（1925~1956）、阿不思·邓布利多（1956~1999）、伊恩·提图斯（1999~）”

"Not bad. He left office in 99, and his tenure can be considered to have spanned half a century... Hmm? Ian Titus?"

Ian saw Dumbledore's term of office as he wished, but the next name surprised him. In order to prove that he was not dazzled, he confirmed it again and again.

It was an established reality that he was recognized by Hogwarts as the next headmaster in the future.

This discovery made Ian secretly happy. He would be lying if he said he was unhappy. No HP fan could refuse this recognition.

This is not only a recognition, but also an honor.

At this moment, Ian finally understood all the previous doubts.

Why was Dumbledore able to trust him unconditionally in their previous relationship, and why was he so generous that he set the room containing the Book of Access as a safe house?

Similarly, he also thought about the treatment he would receive when he went to the principal's office. Before anyone could get close to the door, the guarding gargoyle automatically opened the door.

Before, he secretly guessed that this might be a privilege granted by Dumbledore, allowing him to enter the principal's office without a password...

Now it seems that this has nothing to do with Dumbledore. This is entirely the authority granted by Hogwarts to the future principal.

The fatal question of the bronze door knocker, Rowena Ravenclaw's last voice, the legacy of the Forbidden Zone...

Everything can be explained.

One by one, one by one, it is not difficult to find that everything that Ian experienced was not a coincidence.

They had the script early on and have been doing their best to train him as a cadre...

To put it bluntly, Hogwarts really treated him as its own son.

"10 years? You are really in line with your style. When you leave office, you will give up your job..."

Ian looked at the parchment and smiled bitterly. He thought of Dumbledore's promise to help him resurrect Eileen within 10 years.

At first, he naively thought that the old headmaster was trying to free up time to solve Harry's problems and also take care of Voldemort, so that he could sacrifice himself without any worries.

Now it seems that neither Voldemort nor Harry are noticed by others. Dumbledore only cares about one thing from beginning to end, and that is loyalty to Hogwarts.

Ian also made some secret calculations. He sought help from Dumbledore during the summer vacation of his first year. Counting from 1992 to 1999, including preparations before resurrection, it was exactly 10 years.

After figuring out all the problems, he sat on the high-backed chair without any scruples. He didn't dare to touch it before because he was worried about the mystery of Hogwarts.

now?The formal appointment letter has been issued, so there is nothing to worry about. If it weren't for the prohibition of all Apparition here, he would have called the house elf to bring in a cup of black tea.

ten minutes later.

"How should I get out..."

Ian frowned and looked at the layout of the entire room.First of all, the door key is not very useful. It is one-sided. It can control the entry but not the exit.Secondly, the two-foot window is also a decoration. Wind can come in, rain can come in, but people can't come in...

Ian moved slowly around the room while tapping the surrounding walls with his wand from time to time.

Finally, he had to accept the reality that he was trapped and couldn't get out.

……

As time passed, Ian became more and more certain that he was really trapped.

Of course, it is not ruled out that other means may be used, such as using fire to break the situation forcibly.But this was always something he didn't want to do. First of all, emotionally, it made him unwilling to destroy Hogwarts.

Secondly... the rich magic left by the previous principals on that piece of parchment, Ian didn't think he could break through here by himself.

More than half an hour passed.

Ian sat lazily on the chair, looking at the admission book that was opened in front of him, which was filled with the list of freshmen at Hogwarts this year.

There is no way, it is really boring here, except for a book and a piece of parchment, there is nothing else to pass the time.

Of course, Ian has a backup plan, which is the double-sided mirror in his pocket... I just tried it and it still works normally.

He didn't want to contact Hermione unless he had to, and asked her to write a letter to Dumbledore for help. What did he say?Trapped in a room at school?That's too embarrassing.

After closing the book of access, when he was bored, Ian also learned the Internet routine from his previous life, the so-called time-travel calling system, and tentatively said to the air:

"Hello? Is the system here? Grandpa Ring? Let me out!"

It was originally a joke, but as soon as he finished speaking, a blue arch pattern drawn by magic appeared on the wall.

After a few seconds, the blue pattern gradually faded, and when it completely disappeared, a gorgeous door appeared on the originally thick wall.

Without thinking, Ian quickly walked over, grabbed the door handle, and pushed open the wooden door.After walking out, with just a casual glance, he realized where he was.

As expected, what is connected to the outside is the principal's office.

Looking at the hot black tea on the table, the pile of cockroaches squirming wantonly, and the familiar face behind the table.

Ian said angrily: "You have the nerve to keep watching? I was almost going to pull out my wand and set fire to it!"

After walking to the table, pulling out the chair next to him, and sitting down, Ian picked up two piles of cockroaches and put them into his mouth without ceremony.

"Hahaha, I want to help you too, but this is the final test..." Dumbledore explained with a hearty smile.

Judging from his voice alone, he seemed to be in a very good mood at the moment.

"The final test?" Ian was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then he reacted and said with a wry smile: "If I take out my wand and destroy Hogwarts, will I be removed from the parchment?"

"Expelled? That's not a problem." Dumbledore sat up slightly and said seriously:
"The decision of Hogwarts cannot be changed. If you take out your wand and release attack magic, the door to the room will appear for you, but the books on the bookshelf will only be opened to you with reservations."

"The final test, xinxing... okay!" Ian quickly figured out the reason.

Suddenly, he also realized a problem. He used the books on the bookshelf as the principal's ultimate reward. Those books...

After Dumbledore saw Ian's expression, he smiled and said:
"These books record the foundation of magic. Otherwise, why would the magic school have such a transcendent status? Why did Gellert immediately compete for Principal Durmstrang after he came out of Nurmengard?"

After hearing Dumbledore's explanation, Ian murmured doubtfully: "I always thought that the magic school has a transcendent status because controlling it means controlling a steady stream of new wizards..."
