Chapter 24 Reasoning and Dumbledore
Mo Wen, as soon as they crossed the threshold, a flame rose from behind them, sealing the door. The flame was unusual: it was purple. At the same time, black flames also erupted at the door leading to the front. They were trapped in the middle.
"Look!" Hermione grabbed a roll of parchment placed next to the bottle. Harry stood behind her and read with her:
Danger is in front of you, safety is in the back. Two of us can help you. Drink them down, one leads you forward, and the other sends you back to the original place. Two are nettle wine. Three are killers, waiting in line. Choose, unless you hope to delay here forever. We also provide four clues to help you choose: First, no matter how cunning the poison is, they are actually standing on the left side of nettle wine; Second, the bottles on both sides of the left and right are not well-contented.
If you want to move forward, neither of them will work for you; thirdly, you will find that the bottles are of different sizes. There is no death hidden in the giants and dwarfs; fourthly, the second on the left and the second on the right, although the appearance is different, the taste is the same.
"A logical reasoning should be to drink the right potion and pass through the flame. If I guess correctly, it should be the smallest bottle." Mo Wen said.
"How do you know?" Hermione, who also saw that it was a reasoning, was thinking about which bottle it was, but saw Mo Wen immediately gave the answer and asked in surprise, "You have reasoned it out? I haven't figured it out yet. Modi, you are indeed very smart."
Mo Wen just smiled and pointed to the bottle and said, "Only that bottle has been drunk. If the person had not been burned to ashes before, it should be this bottle. Of course, if the person had been burned to death, we wouldn't have to drink it."
Ron just smiled, but unexpectedly, Hermione was also confused, but she blushed and said stubbornly: "Then wait for me to reason. What if that person drinks wrong, many of the greatest wizards do not have the ability to reason with logic. We should not take risks."
Harry, who had reached out to pick up the small bottle, immediately withdrew his hand.
After a while, Hermione, holding the parchment, breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yes, that little bottle is the antidote to move forward. Then--"
"The one on the far right is the potion that can get us back." Mo Wen suddenly spoke, blinking at Hermione who was a little surprised, "You don't really think I'll let you drink potion casually. It was just a joke just now to ease the atmosphere."
"You!" Hermione stamped her feet in anger.
"Okay, the question now is what should we do? The potion in that small bottle is only enough for one person to drink." Mo Wen said again.
The atmosphere suddenly became silent, and Harry spoke first: "You drink that bottle first, Hermione, don't interrupt me, listen to me - go back to Professor Dumbledore - grab a few brooms from the flying key room, they will carry you through the trap door, pass by Lu Wei - go directly to the shed where Cat Lanying lives, and send Hedwig to Dumbledore, we need him to rescue. I may be able to temporarily hold Snape or Quirrell, but I am by no means his opponent."
Harry stopped Mo Wen, who was about to speak, "I know Guris, you are awesome, but you are not Voldemort's opponent yet. I have escaped by chance at least once before, remember?" Harry pointed to the scar on his forehead and said, "And Voldemort killed my parents, I think I should at least go and see, otherwise I will never feel at ease in my life."
"Are you serious? Harry? You're likely to die, do you still have to hold on?" Mo Wen looked at Harry seriously. Although he had planned not to see Voldemort, he had to at least pretend, otherwise it would be unfavorable to his image.
Harry said with a smile: "I might turn bad luck into good luck."
Mo Wen thought for a while while pretending to behave, then said, "Okay, Hermione, Ron, you guys do what Harry said, I'll stay here. If Harry fails, I can still stop the other party here."
"But-" Hermione opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but Mo Wen waved her hand, "That's Harry's choice. We should respect him, and I'm here too, so it's no different from following me."
Harry looked at Mo Wen with gratitude, and without waiting for Hermione to persuade him, he picked up the small bottle and drank it all. Hermione's lips trembled. She suddenly rushed towards Harry, stretched out her arms and wrapped around him, "Harry, you must come back alive."
Ron also walked over and patted Harry.
Then Hermione also hugged Mo Wenlai, "You must be careful too. If you can't stop the other party, you should also run away with the potion."
Finally she drank the potion with Ron and went back through the flames.
"Harry, be careful." Mo Wen said to Harry.
"Well, I get it." Harry passed through the purple flame under Mo Wen's gaze.
"It's really you, Quirre!"
In the last room, Harry and Kilow were confronting each other.
Kilow frowned and said to Harry: "I didn't expect you to guess it was me. I thought I was hiding well. Snape's bat was obviously more welcome than me."
Harry shook his head, "It's not what I guess, it's Guris who reminded me that you have a problem."
"Modi Guris" a trace of fear flashed in Qilu's eyes, "Indeed, he is the best student I have ever met. He is smart and has good strength. I almost never imagined that there is such an excellent person, but he is much inferior to my master. Okay, Harry, let's have a good talk."
Countless ropes suddenly appeared, tied Harry tightly.
In another room, after Harry entered for a while, Mo Wen suddenly spoke, "Professor Dumbledore, please come out now."
After a long period of silence, Mo Wen shook his head, "If you don't come out again, I'm going to go in, it's not that I can't go in."
With a finger of the wand, the potion bottle that Harry had drank was filled again.
An old man with a long white beard appeared in the room, Dumbledore, and he looked at Mo Wen, "Mr. Guris, how did you know I'm here?"
"I guess, the levels here are too simple. Although Harry and the others think they are very difficult, it is still too simple for precious items like Guardian Magic Stone. It is so simple that even if I don't take action, these first-year students can solve it. Moreover, there are too many strange things in the school this year. Whether it is Halloween monsters or the stadium, I don't believe you will know nothing, so today's incident is likely to be a test you set. In order to protect our safety, you should have a way to understand the situation here." Mo Wen explained. In fact, he had just quietly used a detection and then finally confirmed it.
