The distinctive sound of fire truck sirens passed through the forest and came from afar.

"It's time to go," Lupine said.

"Hold on."

Vader whispered to Michal: "Please."

Michal spread his wings and landed on the ruins. Golden flames spread out and covered the entire area.

After a moment, the flames retracted, and the golden bird picked up a black ring from the dust.

There was some dark, sticky stuff stuck to it, and after being roasted by Michal's flame for a while, it turned into ash and fell off.

The gold on the ring was completely melted by the heat, condensing into a strange puddle. Michal pecked it twice with his mouth, removed the gold, and returned to Wade with only the black gem in his mouth.

It placed the black stone gently in Vader's hand.

Lupine looked at it curiously and saw that it was more like a black stone with a figure composed of triangles and circles on it, with several cracks in the middle.

Any curse or magic attached to it had been burned away by the fire. Wade picked up the gem through the handkerchief and looked at it in the light.

Light seemed to be swallowed up by this gem.

He knew that this was one of the legendary artifacts given to the three Peverell brothers by the God of Death. It was called the Resurrection Stone and had the ability to bring the dead back to life.

Just put the Resurrection Stone in your hand and turn it three times to bring the dead back to the world.

However, the dead are not truly resurrected, and only the users of the Resurrection Stone can see them. Therefore, even if they stay in the human world, they will only feel endless loneliness and pain.

This is something that looks like an artifact, but is actually no different from a curse. Its effect is far inferior to that of the Elder Wand and the Invisibility Cloak, which are also known as the Deathly Hallows.

In the plot, Dumbledore carelessly wore the ring because he longed to see his dead parents and sister, and was cursed by Voldemort. Even with Snape's potion, his life was only extended for one year.

Of course, Dumbledore is Dumbledore after all.

He laid a big plan in the last year. Even though he was dead, he still let Harry send Voldemort away under his arrangement.

But the year without Dumbledore was also the darkest and most dangerous year for the entire wizarding world and Hogwarts.

The Harry trio had to leave the school and flee, many Muggles and wizards were killed, the Ministry of Magic became Voldemort's accomplice, and the students at Hogwarts except Slytherin were tortured.

If Harry, Neville and other protagonists hadn't had their auras explode, finding all the Horcruxes and destroying them at the last moment, and Harry also using the ownership of the Elder Wand to rebound the Death Curse and kill Voldemort, then darkness would have continued to shroud the British Isles. , Voldemort's reign of terror will spread throughout the world.

It all started when Dumbledore got the Resurrection Stone.

If it weren't for the curse on this stone, a wizard as powerful as Dumbledore should have been able to live for a long time.

Not to mention Nico Flamel who took the elixir of life, the witches on the Hogwarts Express have been doing this job since 1830. Some students think that there have been many changes in this position, but in fact it has always been the same.

There is also Armando Dippet, the former headmaster of Hogwarts. He lived for more than three hundred years and only died recently.

It's just that Armando Dippet has been living in seclusion for many years, and the magical world has almost forgotten him. The news of his death only occupied a small space in the Daily Prophet.

Excluding the original founder, Dumbledore's magic power is the highest among all previous principals, so even though he is now gray-haired, he can still live for a long, long time before he dies.

——If he could die in peace.

Vader also put the Resurrection Stone in a magic-shielding box, then turned the suitcase into a wardrobe, opened the door, and asked Firebird:

"Mihal, can you stay in here? Be careful not to burn things."

Michal nodded, flew in, circled around, found a dry place to stay, and then chirped twice.

So Wade got some rocks and dead branches from the mountain and built a nest for it. Michal breathed fire into it, lit the branches, and then lay comfortably in the fire.

Vader put away his pencil case and quickly left the woods with Lupine. As they returned to the village of Little Hangleton, they saw fire engines passing through the village.

The sharp whistle woke up the sleeping people. They sat up in a daze and looked at the thick smoke in the distance in a daze.

"Fire!"

Panic sounds finally sounded from all directions. No one thought there was anything wrong with falling asleep just now, nor did they pay attention to the two people hurriedly crossing the path.

When we arrived at the tavern, there were a few people standing outside the door looking at the forest in the distance. Lupine and Vader passed through the crowd and returned to the guest room they had reserved.

The black disappearing cabinet stood in the center of the room.

Lupine opened the cabinet door and said to Wade: "You go back to school first, and I will take the disappearing cabinet back to Hogsmeade Village."

Vader nodded without saying much, got into the vanishing cabinet, and returned to Hogwarts in the blink of an eye.

Zoe was standing outside the cabinet, waiting for him with a smile.

Lupine closed the cabinet door, cleaned up the traces of life left by several people, opened his suitcase, moved the disappearing cabinet in and put it away, then lifted the suitcase, put on his gray bowler hat, lowered the brim and walked out of the room.

The bartender of the tavern was discussing with the guests the cause of the sudden fire in the forest. He speculated that someone went to have a picnic and unethically lit a bonfire but failed to extinguish it in time.

"It may be that the wind brought the cigarette butts in." Mike said seriously: "Most fires are caused in this way."

"Why don't you talk about the two guests before?" The bearded drinker Pete said: "I still don't believe that an adult man can suddenly become a child?"

"It's true." The bartender Mike said seriously: "Can I make a mistake? They all have black hair and gray eyes. It must be one person..."

Peter complained: "Compared to rejuvenation, isn't it more likely that they are father and son?"

"But I didn't see anyone else go in..." Mike argued.

"You must have missed it!" Pete said.

Behind them, Lupin apologized silently, then raised his wand-

"Oblivion!"

The light flashed, and the two people at the door blinked, their expressions a little dull.

After a while, Mike said, "It could be that the wind carried the cigarette butts in. Most fires are caused this way."

"No... I think the fire started deep in the forest, and it's more likely to be a campfire that hasn't been extinguished."

"... In any case, there are always some people who don't have the awareness of forest fire prevention, and those of us who live nearby are always unlucky."

After Mike finished speaking, he suddenly felt that the door behind him seemed to move.

He looked back, saw nothing, and turned his eyes away without caring.
