It has to be said that the Hogwarts headmaster's room planning is a bit messy - but it seems that most wizard's rooms are like this. Unlike Muggles, wizards just wave their wands when they want to find something, instead of rummaging around like Muggles. Solim thought he had discovered the root cause of the clutter in wizard's rooms.

After going down the spiral staircase with Snape and walking through the gleaming oak door, Solim sort of got a glimpse of the headmaster's office:

A large, bright, circular room filled with funny little sounds. On the slender-legged table were many strange silverware, whirling and puffing out little puffs of smoke. The walls were covered with portraits of old headmasters and headmasters—but now they were all pretending to sleep with their eyes closed, sneaking glances at Solim from time to time, which Solim had already noticed.

There was also a huge table with claw-shaped legs. On top of a tall bookshelf against the wall was the school's Sorting Hat—it looked much cleaner now. A glass case next to it contained the sword of Gryffindor, and a black chest opposite the glass case, Solim knew, contained the Pensieve. Fawkes, Dumbledore's phoenix, was perched on a tall gilded perch behind the desk.

Solim was turning his head back and forth, looking around at the furnishings and items in the principal's office. Dumbledore, on the other hand, sat behind his desk, eyeing Solim firmly through his glasses. Snape consciously stood against the wall as soon as he came in, trying to blend himself with the wall.

After a general inspection, Solim finally shifted his gaze to Dumbledore's body - not the eyes, so he wouldn't be foolish enough to look into the eyes of a Legilimency master. That's no different than stripping yourself naked on the street.

Dumbledore saw that Solim finally turned his attention to himself, put his hand in and said, "I think you must be very puzzled, why did I ask your Headmaster to bring you to see me at such a late hour."

Solim shook his head: "To be honest, Principal, I really have no doubts. I know you will find me sooner or later. I thought you would find me after the Halloween incident, but you didn't."

Solim originally thought that Dumbledore would find time to meet him after the troll incident. Maybe Dumbledore was too busy, maybe Dumbledore thought it was too late, or maybe Dumbledore thought it was necessary to observe Solim more. In short, the relationship between the two of them The meeting has been delayed until now.

"Oh, then, you might as well guess why I'm looking for you." Dumbledore asked with great interest.

In Solim's peripheral vision, Dumbledore's glasses were reflecting light, making it difficult to see his eyes clearly.

"Filch? Halloween? Potter? Or the Philosopher's Stone?" Solim shrugged, "Or both? Or are they interested in me?"

"You'd better not be interested in me." Solim complained in his heart: "Although I'm not interested in these young girls in school who haven't grown up yet, my orientation is still normal."

"You still know about the Sorcerer's Stone? Can you tell me how you know?" Dumbledore's expression made it impossible to see what he was thinking.

Tch, I know that there is a Philosopher's Stone in school, can I hide it from you?

"Principal, let's stop talking around the bush and talk about it. It's getting late, so Professor Snape and I can go back to rest." Solim didn't want to hang around with an old man like Dumbledore , that would kill a lot of brain cells.

"Young man, I'm really impatient, anyway, it's really ill-considered to ask you to come and talk to a bad old man like me so late.

"Principal, I have no ill intentions towards Potter, nor do I have any thoughts about the Sorcerer's Stone. As for Filch's matter, I must have told you, the dean, and you must not have taken the Halloween matter to heart." Solim paused, Then he said: "Then it can only be the principal, you want to take a look and judge whether I will have any impact on your plan, and then you can take corresponding measures, right?"

Dumbledore lowered his head slightly, looking directly over his glasses at Solim firmly.

"It seems that Schuyler's life can indeed make people mature." Dumbledore said something out of nowhere.

But Solim could hear what Dumbledore was trying to say. Compared with the students of Schuyler, most of the students of Hogwarts are like fools, squandering precious time and wasting their talents recklessly. Few students can be strict with themselves and study eagerly knowledge to improve yourself.

There is nothing to be harsh about this, after all, the goals and positioning of the two schools are different. Hogwarts teaches students how to control their magic and how to become a wizard. And Schuyler is much crueler, teaching you how to fight and how to kill. They are fundamentally different. If Hogwarts also adopts Schuler's teaching method, I believe that Hogwarts now is another scene.

"But Solim, can you tell me what you think of the Philosopher's Stone?"

Here comes the temptation to begin. Solim knew that Dumbledore would not be fooled by himself with just a few words, and a great wizard like Dumbledore, they would not need Legilimency to know if a person was lying, and Solim really didn't care about the Philosopher's Stone, according to Honestly just fine.

"I don't have any idea about the Philosopher's Stone. I'm not Harry Potter, and I'm not an ordinary wizard. I know a lot more than them. I know what can be touched and what can't be touched. So, principal, you There's no need to use the Philosopher's Stone to test me." Although Solim is an illegitimate child, thanks to Elrond, the things he can touch are not much different from those of direct family members.

"Also, the Philosopher's Stone that you made, principal, shouldn't be complete, right? It should be the kind that will fail after one or two uses." Solim said.

"Oh? You know that too?" Dumbledore's face was still expressionless.

"I said, I'm not an ordinary wizard. I know more things. Is this normal? Besides, every Sorcerer's Stone has to pass through the Presbyterian Council. If Mr. Flamel really gave you a complete Sorcerer's Stone, it must be You won't take it, the principal, right."

Dumbledore didn't speak.

"The principal came to me today just to make sure that I will not have a bad influence on your plan. I can give you an accurate answer right now: no."

With that said, Solim stepped forward, took out something from his body and put it on Dumbledore's desk.

"Riddle is not dead. Ordinary wizards don't know about this, but you must know it, Headmaster, and you have guessed about it, right? It's just that there is no definite proof, so I will give you a proof." Solim pointed to the things on the desk and said: "During this Christmas holiday, I got this thing with my grandfather. Of course, the curse on it has been lifted by my grandfather, but a great wizard like you should still be able to see it." Are there any traces?"

Dumbledore's eyes sharpened, he didn't touch it directly, but looked at it carefully.

"My grandfather has researched it, and he didn't destroy this Horcrux, so the function of this ring as a Horcrux is still preserved. It's not that we can't destroy this Horcrux, but we can't guarantee that after destroying it, The other functions of the ring are intact."

"Yes, I've seen this ring." Dumbledore saw the Peverell logo on the ring, and he knew that this ring was the one worn by his student, Tom Riddle. He could also feel that there was an instant death curse on this ring, even if he was cursed, he could not escape the instant death curse.

Dumbledore raised his head and asked, "Where did you find it?" He unconsciously used Legilimency on Solim.

Solim felt it, turned his head extremely dissatisfied and said: "Principal! I have already shown my sincerity, if you do this again, I will turn around and leave!"

Although Dumbledore still couldn't be seen from his expression, the surprise still flashed in his eyes. His Legilimency is already at its peak. Although Dumbledore admits that Solim is indeed excellent, compared with his peers, he should not be aware of his Legilimency. It seems that what he sees in front of him is There are many good things about this student.

Solim has an alchemy item on his body that can warn the wearer when he is receiving Legilimency. This is what Solim asked Elrond to get. But this item is only a warning, it can't stop others from Legilimency.

"I apologize to you, Solim, you know, when people get old, many habits are difficult to change." Dumbledore expressed his apology to Solim.

"Professor, are you usually like this?" Solim turned his head to look at Snape by the wall. From the moment he entered the door, Snape had been leaning against the wall, trying to make himself appear non-existent.

Snape ignored Solim.

"Do you know what this is, Solim?" Dumbledore asked Solim a knowing question.

"Horcrux, that's how Riddle escaped death. My grandfather and I found it at Gaunt's old house in Little Hangleton."

"That's right, Horcruxes," Dumbledore glanced at Solim, "Although I guessed that Tom made Horcruxes, I just couldn't find any evidence to prove it." Dumbledore stood up, "For this reason , I would like to thank you, Solim, for helping me confirm my guess."

Then why don't you come up with something good to reward me? Can you give me some dry goods?

"Few people know that Tom and the Gaunt family are relatives, but obviously, he has no secrets in your eyes. Tom was once the most gifted student I ever taught. It's a pity that he wasted his talent in other places, and he went the wrong way. I always wondered if I had guided him more, would he have taken a completely different path? the way?"

Dumbledore has always been very guilty about Voldemort's affairs. He always thinks that he, as a teacher, did not guide well and did not play the role a teacher should have, which led to the birth of Voldemort.

But is this really the case?
