Hogwarts: I'm just here to enjoy the magic

Chapter 304: Exposing Voldemort’s background



As the magic started, white light suddenly appeared.

In a flash.

Snape, who was caught off guard, was struck directly and froze on the spot.

According to the process of forgetting everything, Snape's memory should be modified at this moment to make him forget the parts he should forget.

But Lockhart did not do this, but looked at Dumbledore with a smile.

As the greatest wizard of this century, Dumbledore did not fall easily.

When Lockhart looked at him, his hand holding the wand was slowly lowering it.

"As expected of our Headmaster." Lockhart clapped.

clap clap clap...

Crisp but monotonous applause swept back and forth in the principal's room.

"Who are you?" Dumbledore did not answer, but looked at Lockhart warily.

"Don't be so nervous." Lockhart waved his hand, "At this stage, we are not enemies."

"What do you mean?" Dumbledore's heart moved.

"How many of Voldemort's Horcruxes have been found?" Lockhart asked with a smile, "Except for the one I gave you."

"One," Dumbledore said slowly. "There are no clues about the rest." He was considering whether to take down Lockhart.

"Really? I don't believe it." Lockhart raised his hand and shook his finger.

Matching his expression, he really deserves to be beaten as much as he wants.

"Harry Potter." Lockhart threw out a name before Dumbledore made a move, "I don't believe you are capable of not seeing his problem."

When Dumbledore heard this, his pupils shrank suddenly.

"what do you mean……"

"No, no, no, no, no..." Lockhart shrugged, "Just stop acting. I know you've already seen it."

Dumbledore was silent.

It is impossible for him to expose his own incompetence at this time.

On the contrary, he wanted to know more.

"Okay, no more joking." Lockhart put away his smile and became more serious, "There are two Horcruxes in the school. Besides Harry, there is another one."

"It's not on me?" Dumbledore's heart moved.

"There is no need to calculate things that have already been found." Lockhart shook his head. "I originally wanted to find it myself, but since you are so free, I might as well give you something to do."

"Are you busy?" Dumbledore asked casually.

"Yes, I have been very busy for the king's return." Lockhart nodded.

"Who is the king you are talking about?"

"That's who you think it is. The final answer may be beyond your expectation. Of course, you may also guess it but you can't tell."

Lockhart's skills in nonsense literature are probably maxed out.

I said a lot of things, but it’s as if I didn’t say anything at all.

Dumbledore thought quietly for a moment.

"Is it Voldemort?"

"That's definitely not the case." Lockhart shook his head, "Okay, there's no point in asking these questions now. Let's solve all the Horcrux problems first. Harry, a living Horcrux, is troublesome enough. He Whether you can survive or not depends entirely on your ability."

He said this with a hint of ridicule in his voice.

"Okay, here's the thing, you guys should deal with it quickly." After Lockhart finished speaking, he turned and left.

Dumbledore tightened his wand in his hand.

Should we take action now and keep Lockhart?

Just as he was hesitating, he saw Lockhart stop.

"By the way, Hufflepuff's golden cup is in Gringotts. As for Slytherin's locket, it should be in the old mansion of the Black family now."

Dumbledore was shocked when he heard this.

This was the information he had been looking for for a long time, but he didn't expect to get it so easily.

As for whether it is true...

As long as he, the greatest wizard in the world, takes action, won't he know the result immediately whether it is true or false?

There is no point in cheating.

"Hogwarts is my alma mater after all. I hope it can be more pure and avoid situations that are beyond my control and unmanageable."

After Lockhart finished speaking, he continued to walk and left the office.

Dumbledore watched him leave, but did not take action after all.

Maybe he was moved by the last words.

With the slamming of the office door, Snape suddenly regained consciousness.

"I... just now..." He was confused at first, and then quickly realized, "It was the Forgetting Curse? I was actually hit by it?"

Turning to look at Dumbledore: "Have you been cursed?"

Dumbledore raised the wand in his hand, shook his head, and put the wand back on his waist.

"Then what's going on now?" Snape turned his head and looked around.

There was no sign of a fight in the office.

"Where's Lockhart?"

"He dropped some information." Dumbledore frowned, "He gave out the whereabouts of the four Horcruxes."

"Horcruxes? Four?" Snape couldn't believe it.

Dumbledore spent a whole summer vacation and only found a Horcrux.

Now, we actually got news about four Horcruxes?

"Which ones are they?" He was a little curious.

I was just discussing with Dumbledore, besides the relics of the four founders of Hogwarts, what other items would be used to make Horcruxes as arrogant as Voldemort?

"He didn't go into details, he just said that the two Horcruxes are in the school." Dumbledore sighed, "One of them is Harry."

"What?!" Snape's pupils trembled.

He seriously suspected that he had heard wrong.

"Harry? Why?"

"I don't know, but this kind of lie that can be exposed immediately is meaningless." Dumbledore looked worried.

"So, he really is..." Snape was nervous.

"should be."

"No, I have to go and have a look!" Snape wanted to check it himself.

"Don't be anxious!" Dumbledore called him, "Even if it is confirmed now, we still haven't found a way to deal with it! Don't get into trouble!"

Snape scowled and stopped.

He struggled, but Dumbledore was right.

If there is no solution, there is no point in rushing now.

He took a few deep breaths to calm himself down.

After a long while, he said, "Besides these, what else did Lockhart say?"

"The other two Horcruxes, the golden cup is in Gringotts and the locket is in the Black family mansion."

"That's it? Nothing more specific?"

"Well, we still have to search for it ourselves, but the search area is already very small." Dumbledore smiled slightly, "Anyway, it can be considered good news."

"Wait a minute..." Snape frowned, "These Horcruxes, plus the two in your hand, there are only six. There is still one more."

"I guess he doesn't know. We need to find it ourselves." Dumbledore was also troubled by this. "Besides, Voldemort does not necessarily have only seven Horcruxes. Seven is just our speculation. Now we can know six Horcruxes. The information is already pretty good.”

"Then what we need to do next is..."

"Find the other Horcrux in Hogwarts first."

"Then Lockhart..."

"Ignore him for now." Dumbledore shook his head, "At present, our goals are the same."

"I hope your judgment is correct." Snape sneered.

There was something he didn't say.

Dumbledore's judgment was often wrong on key matters.

For example, Lily.
