Hogwarts: I am Voldemort

The new semester of Hogwarts has begun, but the atmosphere on campus is quite strange.

Students always gather together in small groups, discussing something in low voices.

And once the professors get close, they will disperse like birds.

"It was a discussion about that, and they kept mum about that."

In Professor McGonagall's office, Lupine sighed and continued, "The students don't seem to trust us. The Wizards' Association, the Falcon Burner and the Candle Holder played a decisive role in this."

"You mean they have all joined these three organizations?" Professor McGonagall asked with a frown.

"A small number of those who have not joined also show signs of being isolated."

Lupine twisted uncomfortably. This detail was noticed by Professor McGonagall, but she was not surprised.

She knew Lupin's identity as a werewolf.

This identity made Lupine somewhat withdrawn since he was a child, so his uneasiness when talking about these isolated children is understandable.

"Maybe I should talk to Harry, he's always..."

Before Professor McGonagall finished speaking, Lupine interrupted, "I don't think this is appropriate."

"Why?" Mag asked.

"If he says it, he will be isolated. If he doesn't say it, it will make things more complicated, so... it's better not to look for him."

Lupine's eyes were calm, but in the depth of this calmness, he revealed concern that was not obvious but real enough.

Professor McGonagall knew about his relationship with Harry's father, so after thinking about it, she gave up her proposal.

"Okay then, I will take the time to go to Hogsmeade Village. I think the parents of the students will always give us an answer." Professor McGonagall said, rubbing her temples.

She has been under a lot of pressure these days.

The first is the busy work brought about by the start of school, and the second is the lack of results in the investigation.

Finally, there is the frequent interaction between the two media.

Ordinarily, [The Daily Prophet] is a newspaper, and [The Quibbler] is a magazine.

The two are incompatible in terms of content and the time of publication in the journal.

But for this matter, [The Quibbler] issued a short-term newspaper.

In addition to the inherent anecdotes in the wizarding world, there are also more exposures to the scandals of the [Daily Prophet].

This face looks like it is no longer content to make magazines, but is preparing to attack the newspaper industry and launch an attack on the leader of the newspaper industry [Daily Prophet].

The wizards were happy to hear this, after all, it gave them a lot more gossip to talk about in their lives.

But Mag didn't think so. Her intuition told her that this matter was more likely to be manipulated.

Even, without any evidence, she had already convicted that person.

"He has changed, Dumbledore." McGonagall said excitedly in the principal's office, "Do you remember his consortium? He is using Muggle methods, I'm sure he is doing this."

Muggle methods.

If these words hadn't come from McGonagall, Dumbledore would have laughed out loud.

As one of the most powerful wizards in the world, even though Dumbledore was not a pure-blood, he did not think Muggles had any means.

"Then find that method, McGonagall. You know you can do better than me at this." Dumbledore said to McGonagall.

"Your mother is also a Muggle. Maybe you can also think about it. I can't find a clue at the moment, and the school is already busy enough..."

The complaints suddenly came to a halt when McGonagall noticed that Dumbledore had a look of sadness on his face.

She suddenly realized that Dumbledore's mother seemed to have died when his sister's magic was out of control.

"Oh, sorry, Dumbledore, I've been..."

"It's okay, Mag, I know you didn't mean it."

Dumbledore waved his wand, pulled the silver wire out of his temple and sprinkled it towards the pensieve, while looking at McGonagall.

"We're all under a lot of pressure, McGonagall. I know how hard it is, but I just can't spare the time."

He pointed at his white beard, and Mag found that the other person's beard was partially knotted due to neglect.

Dumbledore pointed to the table again, and McGonagall noticed that there were a large number of photos and introductions on it.

The most obvious photo belongs to the Riddle Consortium Building.

Mag immediately understood that the principal had begun to study that person in depth.

His research direction has even extended to the Muggle world.

"Did you find anything?" Mag asked.

"Yes, I have identified a place."

When Dumbledore said this, he glanced at the lower left corner, and McGonagall noticed there were several photos related to Wu's Orphanage.

"There is also a direction to another place, but the Muggle world is too big, McGonagall, and I don't have many clues..."

When the words stopped, Dumbledore frowned.

He waved his wand painfully, drawing more memories from his mind into the pensieve.

"Living long may not be a good thing, Mag. The memory is about to burst my brain. It may not want me to live longer."

Another not-so-funny joke, but this time Mag chose to smile in response.

"Do what you want, McGonagall. I can only leave this matter to you with full authority." Dumbledore said.

McGonagall nodded and did not ask for Dumbledore to join.

"I understand your relationship with your father, McGonagall. It will make you understand the Muggle world better, so I believe you."

Dumbledore pulled out another stream of silver threads and finally leaned back in his chair contentedly, "Also, Lupine is a smart boy, you can trust him."

"Yes, Principal, I trust him, but he is too sensitive." McGonagall said dissatisfied.

She did see Lupine's ability, but Lupine's cold personality made it difficult for her to accept it.

Although Mag is a rational monster, she acts decisively and has enough enthusiasm.

These two characteristics are completely invisible in Lupine, so their communication is not pleasant.

"Hermione, McGonagall, maybe you can try asking her for advice."

Dumbledore did not resolve the idea that the two could not work together. On the contrary, he proposed another direction.

Yes, this is Dumbledore's way of thinking, a combination of vision and wisdom.

He saw the fundamental reason why the two were incompatible, and decisively gave up the idea of ​​reconciling the two, and simply found another partner for Mag.

"Hermione?" McGonagall tried hard to stay rational, but she still couldn't help being surprised, "Are you sure she wasn't bribed by that person?"

Since the middle of last semester, McGonagall has deliberately distanced herself from Hermione.

Because she discovered that Hermione's thoughts were dangerous and she couldn't change them.

She discussed this with Dumbledore, but it was obviously not a pleasant exchange.

"I'm sure she is a reliable child, Mag, but her reliability is not based on relationships, but on positions."

Dumbledore began to pull out memories from his head again, while thinking about how to convince McGonagall.

He knew that this was not an easy job.
