Harry Potter and the Secret Treasures

Chapter 133: Never Wrong Court Hat

Professor McGonagall took Hermione back to the school hospital and Ivan walked into Dumbledore's office alone.

Just like last year, the principal's office was very interesting, and Phoenix looked kindly at him, not far from the table filled with unknown magic items, circular silverware spinning, spraying a small strand, a small strand of smoke.

Before coming in, Ivan would have heard the murmuring arguments in the house. They were discussing what happened tonight, and Ivan thought it was Dumbledore and Foggy, but when he came in, he didn't find anyone in the office.

I was talking about portraits of men and women wizards on the surrounding walls, former Rectors of Hogwarts.

Unfortunately, Ivan didn't see the portrait of the four Creators in it, otherwise he could ask Gryffindor about his treasure key, the legendary magical object hidden in the Banned Horseman tribe, what it was.

The portraits were asleep, but Ivan saw some of them occasionally secretly open their eyes, gauge themselves, and then immediately close them for fear of being discovered.

Ivan ignored them, and he saw that wrinkly, wrinkly hat on the table.

hesitated for a moment, he always had a question in his mind to ask each other, now was a rare opportunity.

Ivan walked over to pick up his hat and put it on his head.

The big hat slowly slipped down, sliding down to cover his eyes, just like the first time he wore it.

“Long time no see, Evan Mason!” A sharp voice whispered, “You seem to have a heart attack? ”

“Yes, there are some things I don't understand, and I'm curious as to what Pettigrew Peter would be..."

“Will be divided into Gryffindor, huh?!” The hat says softly, "My duty is to divide the little wizards into the right colleges, as the four founders wish. I've seen too many, too many little wizards in over a thousand years, some of them kind, some ambitious, some talented, some... but, you know, in the house ceremony, in addition to these innate qualities, everyone's choices are also crucial. ”

“So it was Peter himself who demanded access to Gryffindor? ”

“The kid wants to go to Gryffindor and find the courage he never had.” But in fact, he didn't have to look for it at all, "the cap said," and the courage was buried deep inside him, until he could look down into his heart and find what he had been looking for. ”

“But he didn't, and what he did later was far from what Gryffin did. ”

“Don't doubt that I will not go wrong, the magic of the four founders will make me see through the heart of man. My job is to divide the right people into the right colleges.” The cap at the precinct is clever, "he said," but there is no guarantee that the college will suit him or that he will not make a bend in the future. ”

“What about me?” Ivan was anxious to ask, "You didn't even consult with me at the time, you know, I was going to go into Ravenclaw, but you split me up with Griffindor. ”

“Is that really true? Is this really your true will?” The cap made a laugh for a while, "Yes, like Harry Potter, the two of you are not easily positioned, but I am still saying that I will not go wrong, and Gryffindor can help you fulfill your dream. ”

Evan stunned for a moment, what was his dream, learning more magic? Defeat Voldemort? Or be a great white wizard like Dumbledore?

Ivan was confused, and he wanted to say a few more words to each other, but he heard someone walking in, and he hurried to take his hat off and put it back where it belonged.

The door to the office opened and Dumbledore walked in, looking very hard.

Professor! ”

“Sit down, Evan!” Dumbledore pointed to the chair in front of the desk, "I need to talk to you, but to be brief, I don't have much time, Cornelius is still waiting for me in the hall, and we're going to make it to the Magic Department overnight to deal with the werewolf riots and Rhymes' allegations. ”

Ivan sat down and naturally remembered the steps of brain closure in his mind.

“First of all, I have to ask you, Evan, is there anything you'd like to tell me?” Dumbledore took Evan very carefully, and the fingertips of his ten long fingers ran into each other, and he gently said, "Anything! ”

“I do want to talk to you about something, Professor!” Ivan nodded and said slowly, "But before I do, let me ask you a question, did you just find Ron under control? ”

“Obviously, just now in the office on the third floor, I believe I am not the only one who noticed Mr. Weasley's anomaly.” Dumbledore said gently, "What he did tonight was too obvious, as obvious as candlelight in the dark! ”

“So you know who's controlling Ron? ”

“Though many people think I know everything, I don't know everything like outside rumors!” Dumbledore sits on a tall chair behind the table, and he stares closely at Ivan with that light blue, penetrating eye, "I have some thoughts about this, but I'd still like to hear your opinion! ”

“I suspect Peter Pettigrew in control of Ron!” Ivan looked away and tried not to look at Dumbledore.

Although he was prepared to tell the other person something, he did not reveal all the information in his mind.

“Peter Pettigrew, that's an amazing answer. ”

Having said that, Dumbledore didn't seem so surprised, as if everything was in his mind.

“This afternoon, Hermione and I met Sirius Black in Hogmood, and he told us that Peter, the dwarf, had betrayed Harry's parents to Voldemort, that he was not dead, that he was an Animagus, that he was now Ron's pet rat spot. ”

“Annie Magnus?! This is an important piece of information!” Dumbledore closed his eyes and contemplated, "Evan, your intelligence validated my assumptions. To be honest, I didn't pay too much attention to the dwarf Peter back then. It was my fault that I could have avoided letting this child go to this point. ”

Ivan waited for the other person to continue, but Dumbledore seemed to be in reminiscence and had no intention of speaking.
