Days to grind friendship at Hogwarts

There was a flash of silver light, the sword edge slashed down, followed by a familiar distant scream.

All in all, this is the third time Glenn has heard this sound.

The glass of the two small windows was punctured, the deep black eyes had disappeared, and wisps of smoke were rising from the colorful silk lining of the locket.

"This is the fourth Horcrux we have solved." Glenn picked up the locket by its gold chain and put it together with the ring and crown on the desk. "Among the Horcruxes we know,

There should be only Hufflepuff's golden cup left."

Dumbledore nodded. Harry didn't seem to have reacted yet, with a surprised expression on his face, and a bit of residual anxiety from before.

"Sirius, you..."

Sirius returned the Sword of Gryffindor to Dumbledore and said with a smile: "You don't think I was really fooled by that thing, do you?"

"Isn't it?" Harry asked confused.

"Of course not!" Sirius said proudly, "My eyes have seen through too many disguises, and this little trick is nothing to worry about."

Although he said this, it was obviously not true. Before the Horcrux James showed his flaws, he did think that his good brother suddenly appeared again.

But fortunately, he still maintained enough sense, and everyone was happy with the final result. This little incident was insignificant, and Glenn naturally would not dismantle him in front of Harry.

After hearing what he said, Harry immediately believed it and showed some admiration.

Glenn smiled, looked at Dumbledore and asked: "About Hufflepuff's golden cup... do you have any thoughts?"

"Not yet." Dumbledore shook his head, "But according to speculation, Voldemort may entrust it to one of his men. What is certain is that with his suspicious character, there are not many people who are trustworthy.

.”

"If that's the case, I think we can narrow it down a bit now," Glenn said.

"Of course," Dumbledore nodded, "Although there is no strict hierarchy among the Death Eaters, there are not many who can be considered Voldemort's confidants."

"We might as well get rid of those people who are already related to Horcruxes first." Glenn said, "For example, Lucius Malfoy, he was once one of Voldemort's most trusted people, but the diary was in his hands, so it can

Just remove it."

Sirius continued: "There is also Regulus. Although he did not directly obtain the Horcrux, the matter of hiding the locket is related to him, so it can be ruled out."

"As for the other people, I don't know much about them. After all, I was just born more than ten years ago, and I was far away in China." When Glenn said this, as if he suddenly remembered, he patted his forehead and said,

"That's right, Dolohov!"

"This possibility cannot be ruled out. Dolohov is very powerful in combat, and Voldemort admires his talent for black magic." Dumbledore agreed, "As for the others, the Averys, Lestrange and his sons, all

They are the earliest followers of Voldemort, and they are all now imprisoned in Azkaban, and they are also subjects of suspicion."

"There is another person..." Sirius said in a deep voice, "As far as I know, she is one of Voldemort's most fanatical followers. Her cell in Azkaban is not far from me, and there are often rumors of her talking about her.

The master's harsh call."

"I think I know who you are talking about..." Dumbledore said in a deep voice, "Bellatrix, Lestrange."

"That's right." Sirius showed a wry smile, "My dear 'cousin'".

Harry had obviously visited the Black family's genealogy tapestry and knew the identity of the female devil.

"But..." Qiu frowned and asked, "Since the people you mentioned are all imprisoned in Azkaban, where will they hide the Horcrux Golden Cup?"

"That must be a safe enough place, isn't it?" Harry said, "Just like the cave, no one can find it."

"Safe enough..." Glenn took the opportunity to repeat Harry's words, pretending to suddenly realize it, "Is it possible that the gold cup will be stored in... Gringotts? After all, it is recognized as the safest place in the UK.

place..."

Harry was slightly startled: "The safest place? I heard Hagrid say that Hogwarts is the safest place..."

"Oh! Of course!" Glenn smiled at him and pointed to the crown on the table. "But we have already found a Horcrux in Hogwarts. With Voldemort's character, he shouldn't hide a second one.

"

"I see..." Harry nodded silently.

Dumbledore looked at Glenn with a smile and said, "Gringotts. This is an interesting idea, and the possibility is very high."

"But Gringotts is so big, it might be unrealistic to search from room to room, so we'd better find a way to verify it first." Glenn winked at Dumbledore, and then said, "I think you have this completely.

Ability, after all, you are very good at reading people's thoughts."

Harry obviously didn't quite understand what he meant, and showed the confused expression he often showed recently. He was a little strange, why when he was with Glenn, he often acted like a stupid brother and didn't understand anything.

Dumbledore glanced sideways, then nodded and said, "It seems that it's time for me to go to Azkaban myself."

He paused and continued: "By the way, speaking of which, Harry, I have a question for you."

"Say, Professor." Harry said respectfully.

"How is your Occlumency going?"

Harry was stunned again, and then his face turned slightly red.

"Well..."

He was still hesitating how to express his dilemma tactfully, but Sirius had already answered for him: "Actually, the situation is not going too well. Harry doesn't seem to be very good at this."

"I'm afraid you need to put more effort into this, Harry." Dumbledore sighed and shook his head, "Once Voldemort becomes aware of the mental connection between you, he is likely to use this to cause some serious problems.

Condition..."

"I understand, Professor, and I will master it as soon as possible!" Harry promised quickly.

"I hope so."

Everyone chatted for a while, and then they left one after another until dinner time was approaching.

Qiu and Glendo stayed for a while, making the last potion for Dumbledore, and supervising him to drink today's potion conscientiously.

When Dumbledore stuffed the candy with a grimace, Qiu said.

"Your current situation is very good. The highly destructive curse is well controlled. We will be able to take the final step soon."

Dumbledore nodded and looked at his right hand.

The hand has almost completely returned to life, with only the ring finger still retaining the final burnt black color.
