Chapter 28 Snape is a traitor!
Although the riot in the Hogwarts Forbidden Forest was a bit sudden, it still did not cause any turmoil under the control of the greatest white wizard.
Yesterday, Cedric noticed with the help of magical items that a powerful spirit has been paying attention to them.
Even though Dumbledore did not show up, his attention was always on Harry Potter. With a phoenix, he could move his shadow at any time.
Although Hogwarts restricts the wizard's phantom movement, magical animals are not included.
Dumbledore is a fisherman.
Whether it is Harry Potter or the Philosopher's Stone, it is his way of weakening Voldemort. Otherwise, the Philosopher's Stone would have been in Nicolmeller's hands for centuries, so why would it be suddenly handed over to Dumbledore for safekeeping?
You should know that even when Voldemort was the most powerful, he might not be able to defeat an alchemy master who had lived for 700 years. Cedric had a deep understanding of this.
Dumbledore obviously knew that Voldemort made the Horcrux and that he was not dead, so he had carefully designed fishing again and again.
In the end, he used his own death to add a halo of wisdom to Voldemort. Otherwise, even if Voldemort could not beat Dumbledore, it would be very likely to use Dark Magic to kill Dumbledore.
As for the Philosopher's Stone used to make bait this time, Cedric was not worried about the authenticity of it at all. It was basically impossible to use the fake Philosopher's Stone to catch a magic master like Voldemort.
Only the real Philosopher's Stone can make Voldemort step in without hesitation even though he knows it is a trap.
Because of it, Voldemort has the possibility of defeating Dumbledore, which is the charm of the Philosopher's Stone.
The next day, all the little wizards were talking about yesterday's Forbidden Forest and Run, of course, the protagonists who were inseparable from the matter.
"Senior, we discovered a big secret!" In the library, the three saviors and the three mysteriously found Cedric.
Following them to an empty classroom, Harry spoke, "This morning, we found Snape was injured!"
As a lifelong enemy, Harry had deep resentment towards Snape.
"Injured?"
"Yes, there was a huge bite on his feet."
For a potion master, ordinary wound healing only requires a bottle of potion to solve, but the three-headed dog has mythical bloodline after all, and the wound it causes contains the power of "tearing". Even Snape cannot be worthy of the potion for the time being.
"so?"
"Deep in the corridor on the fourth floor of the school, there is a secret room with a three-headed giant dog guarding a precious item." Harry said a secret he thought.
"So Professor Snape was bitten because he wanted to steal this thing?" Cedric said in his words.
"Of course." Hermione interrupted at this time, "Hogwarts itself is a wizard castle. It has a complete defense mechanism. Things like the giant monsters invading the academy are simply impossible, unless someone knows Hogwarts' defense mechanism very well and creates loopholes and puts those magical animals in."
"Snape just wanted to sneak into the secret room by taking advantage of the opportunity to create chaos." Harry concluded at last.
This is reasonable and well-founded, but Snape is not the only one who knows about Hogwarts, but Voldemort is the same.
Tom is a big shot who almost achieved the title of the Four Big Four Relics Collection of the Academy, except for Gryffindor's sword.
But Cedric would not say the real reason. He pretended to be confused, "But I still don't understand one thing. Professor Snape is the dean of Slytherin. Even if he has any needs, just tell Dumbledore directly. Why bother to go far?"
"Unless Snape has an ulterior motive, he wants to do bad things with what is hidden in the secret room!" Harry said gritting his teeth.
When you have a bad first impression of a person, all his behaviors will point to the bad side in your opinion.
"So what do you mean?"
"Senior, you should join us in exposing Snape's evil plan and let Professor Dumbledore know."
It turned out to be a lawsuit against the parents. Cedric nodded. This is indeed the thinking that the young wizards should have. In order to strengthen their persuasion, they even wanted to bring Cedric, an excellent student.
"Well, I can accompany you to the principal's office, but I don't think President Dumbledore would doubt Professor Snape."
Seeing Cedric agreeing, the three saviors waved excitedly. This was their first step to stop Professor Snape's evil plan. Maybe they could change to a potion teacher.
The latter is probably the main purpose.
"······Sizzling honey candy, cockroach pile." Cedric tried several magic candy names in a row, and finally opened the principal's office.
Dumbledore was working at the desk with glasses. When he saw them coming in, he said happily, "Is there anything wrong, little gentlemen and ladies?"
Harry immediately said anxiously, "Professor, Snape is the culprit of yesterday's Forbidden Forest Riot, he is a traitor."
Hearing Harry's words, Dumbledore said in surprise, "How could you doubt your Potions Class Tutor?"
In the original time and space, the trio was originally informed by Professor McGonagall, but Professor McGonagall did not believe this.
Now, with Cedric's platform, Harry believes that Professor Dumbledore will trust him more.
Unfortunately, he didn't know that Snape was the Infernal Affairs that Dumbledore placed among the Death Eaters.
"Professor, you must believe us." Harry said anxiously, "Snape wanted something from the secret room on the fourth floor. Yesterday he was bitten by the big dog while he was in the chaos. This is evidence."
After listening to Harry's words, Dumbledore did not retort like Professor McGonagall, but instead taught with sensuality, "Harry, you must believe that every professor in the college loves you, especially Professor Snape, he will never hurt you."
Because you are the precious legacy that Lily left in this world, Dumbledore said in his heart.
Harry wanted to defend himself a few more words, but was interrupted by Dumbledore. "As for the treasure in the secret room on the fourth floor, don't worry, I put it in an absolutely safe place, even a mysterious person can't find it."
"Do you need a little cockroach pile?" Dumbledore said, grabbing a handful of cockroach candy.
Well, Cedric was indeed disgusted by Dumbledore's method of expelling guests, and so were the little wizards.
Harry looked at the cockroach pile and shook his head, "No, Professor."
Just as the few people were about to get up and say goodbye, Cedric said at the right time, "Professor, I have a kind of reluctance to ask you to help."
Dumbledore immediately became interested and said kindly, "Please speak."
Dumbledore is willing to provide him with some help within his ability to this first grade who is loved by everyone. After all, Harry is still young. If he wants to control the magic world and realize his philosophy, he needs the help of a group of like-minded friends.
"That's right. I recently studied the effect of Phoenix Blood in potions. I hope to get some Phoenix Blood from you, the principal."
Cedric said his purpose openly, and studying phoenix blood is not a shameful thing. Dumbledore also studied the twelve uses of dragon blood.
Dumbledore was a little surprised that being able to study a powerful magic creature like the Phoenix means that Cedric's achievements in potions are close to that of the Potion Master.
"Fox doesn't like being blood drawn," Dumbledore smiled, but then he changed his voice, "But as a reward for outstanding students, Fox is still willing to help. I have to say that the Transformation Spell you cast yesterday was excellent."
