The Periodic Table of Words at Hogwarts

Chapter 201 The Lion Hidden in the Heart

"Son, Fox will send you back first."

Dumbledore said to Zhang Qi.

"Aren't you going to go back with me?"

Zhang Qi asked.

"I still have something to do with this old friend. We will probably talk until very late. You should go back first."

Dumbledore said with a smile.

"Okay, Headmaster Dumbledore."

Zhang Qi nodded his head, then reached out and touched Phoenix Fox.

Fox looked at the boy in front of him with some confusion, then turned to Dumbledore and let out a confused chirp.

"Ah, this child only has dragon blood flowing in his body, he is not a real dragon."

Dumbledore spoke up.

"Please take him back, Fox. I still have a lot of things to deal with here."

Phoenix actually nodded his head in a humane manner at this time, and then let out a loud cry.

Zhang Qi and the phoenix disappeared in a ball of golden flames in an instant.

"Ah, Gellert, I promise I didn't eavesdrop outside, but the anti-eavesdropping magic can't cover up the vibration of the door under that violent roar."

Dumbledore spread his hands helplessly.

"It seemed like the conversation between you was a little, uh, heated"?

"That's an interesting boy, Albus."

Grindelwald said a little tiredly:

"I shouldered the burden of the family at a young age, and I am outstanding in strategy at a young age. Even I am ashamed of myself with my skills."

"so"……

Dumbledore nodded his head with a stern expression.

"According to your words, this child will never become the third Dark Lord."

Grindelwald waved his hand impatiently.

"Oh? But you clearly said that just now"...

Dumbledore's expression instantly became a little surprised, but his eyes were more filled with relief.

"According to your corny and stupid words, this kid has a family he can rely on and people he truly cares about, so he can never become the third lunatic."

"Aren't you going to teach him something, Gellert?"

Dumbledore suddenly asked.

"It turns out that I helped you make sure that he was not in danger, and you just wanted to create some danger yourself"?

Grindelwald raised his eyebrows in confusion.

"What do you think about me teaching him black magic"?

"Although I don't want to undermine your confidence in Garrett, I feel that he may know more things than you do"...

Dumbledore shuddered when he thought of what the white-haired girl had done more than ten years ago.

After all, having a rotting corpse of a hamster come alive again and then jump up and down on his desk was really frightening to me at the time.

Especially after being frightened, something unexpected happened when Dumbledore touched the candy jar and took out a few candies to calm down the shock...

Who knows how those real cockroaches got into his candy jar!

"Oh? Then why did you ask him to see me? I don't believe it was just to satisfy my curiosity."

Grindelwald said disdainfully.

"Although this child will not become a lunatic in the future, he will definitely not be an ordinary person."

"Ah? Then why?"

Dumbledore's hands froze.

"What was your first impression of this child?"

Grindelwald asked.

"A child who had to help his mother support the family because of his father's death. He is young and mature, good at strategy, and has a very strict relationship between good and evil and a bottom line. Although he enjoys the glory and wealth brought by his family, he has lost the most exciting thing. childhood".

Dumbledore said with great certainty.

"You are right, but I saw something else in his eyes."

Grindelwald nodded.

"I saw hatred, hatred for the people who tore his family apart."

"It's not just Voldemort and Dumbledore, you should know that there must be someone behind that riot."

Seeing that Dumbledore seemed to be about to say something, Grindelwald interrupted him.

"Piqueli was not a good person to begin with, and neither is her granddaughter. But it's a pity that your favorite student doesn't know this."

"Newt, I remember he still insisted on sending you a new quilt every Christmas."

Dumbledore said with some emotion.

"Indeed, although it is not a high-end quilt, it is far inferior to the ones I have used before. But it is very warm when I cover it at night, which shows that this young man has put his heart into it."

"He is already an old man like us, not a young man."

Dumbledore corrected Grindelwald.

"You're still as persistent as ever, Albus."

Grindelwald shook his head with regret on his face.

"Do you know what it feels like for this child to be here? He is like a lion who is always being bullied. He is frantically grinding his sharp claws on the rocks to make them even sharper."

"Under that glossy fur, there are actually countless scars that have just healed. Although the wounds have healed, the pain is still reminding him of what to do in the future."

"The motto of your school at Hogwarts is Do Not Disturb a Sleeping Dragon. This child is like a wounded dragon. Normally you can even divide his flesh and blood for food, but when he wakes up you will have to bear the dragon's breath. anger".

After Grindelwald said these words, his mouth felt a little dry. He then lifted the lid of the teapot and took a look. After entering it, there was no water in it and cursed a German curse.

"Please wait for me, I'll get some boiling water."

Grindelwald walked out carrying the stainless steel thermos bottle, and came back a few seconds later carrying a new one.

"When you take the new one, put the old one back and drink some water. You can't use the magic wand to generate water here."

Grindelwald filled the other cup with some difficulty.

"I can tell that this child has a strong smell of blood. He must have killed some more people in the process of seeking medical treatment."

"Yes, but I don't know anything about China, and I don't dare to ask."

Dumbledore nodded.

"But this kid did say that the people he killed cannot be called human beings, so you don't have to worry."

Grindelwald took a sip of the already very weak tea, and then continued:

"How is your relationship with that little girl?"

"You mean Miss Greengrass? She has a very good relationship with me and trusts me."

Dumbledore replied with some confusion.

"That's enough. You don't need to make the child trust you. It's enough to make the girl trust you."

Grindelwald nodded.

"A free man should not be bound by anything except his lover."
