"You searched for the Deathly Hallows when you were young. Do you think Death really exists?"
This question stunned Grindelwald.
"Yes, Death really exists!"
Unlike Dumbledore, Grindelwald answered this question without any scruples.
"I once used the symbol of the Deathly Hallows as my own mark, just to find the secret of Death."
After a pause, Grindelwald turned his head and looked around, and then said mockingly: "But as you can see, I have given up on this now."
Andy heard this and said, "Do you really want to give up?"
"Ok?"
Grindelwald looked at Andy with sharp eyes, "What do you want to say?"
"Because I'm also interested in these secrets."
Andy spread his hands and said: "But searching alone will inevitably be insufficient. If you can have a like-minded partner... I think it might be easier."
Grindelwald leaned back and said calmly: "Maybe... you can only rely on yourself."
Andy shrugged upon hearing this and ended the topic.
Because this old man is obviously not prepared to work for Andy in vain, he has his own ambitions and ideals.
"Let's stop talking here today!"
Andy walked towards the boulder with the double-sided mirror and said softly: "Thank you for your advice, it... helped me a lot!"
"Help each other!" Grindelwald said calmly.
Andy chuckled and closed the double-sided mirror.
Next, it’s time to find Dumbledore!
A matter of love.
and the question of Credence the Obscurial.
Perhaps only Dumbledore can give Andy an answer to these doubts.
Snapped!
After apparating to Hogsmeade, Andy scanned the streets and then walked towards the Hog's Head Bar.
creak-
Pushing open the dilapidated wooden door, Andy suddenly reached out and fanned it with disgust.
This was a small, dark, and very dirty room. There was a strong smell of mutton in the room, which made Andy almost nauseous.
A thick layer of dirt accumulated on the old windows, making it almost impossible to let in any light from the outside.
The floor, paved with bricks, was also covered with centuries of dirt. At first glance, Andy thought the ground here was compacted mud.
Although some wizards are indeed not very particular about hygiene, this is the first time that Andy has seen such poor hygiene.
Really too bad!
It's morning and there's not a single customer in the bar.
The owner of the bar, Aberforth Dumbledore, was sitting bored behind the bar. After seeing Andy, Aberforth said unkindly: "It's closed today. There's nothing here."
Andy looked at the bar owner and said with a complicated expression: "To be honest, it is really a miracle in the magic world that this bar has not closed down."
"Little guy, what do you know?"
Aberforth hummed softly: "This bar has a history of hundreds of years. It was once the headquarters of the Goblin Rebellion and is well-known throughout the magical world."
Andy: "..."
Andy poked the soil on the ground with his foot, "It can be seen that this place has a history of hundreds of years."
The ground here has not been cleaned for at least hundreds of years.
"I know you, Andy Collins, you have been in the newspapers for a while."
Aberforth seemed a little impatient, and he said angrily: "What are you doing here?"
Andy looked in the direction upstairs and asked, "Is Professor Dumbledore here? I have something to do with him."
"Not here!"
Hearing that Andy came to see his brother, Aberforth's attitude became obviously worse, "If he dares to come, I will kick him out. Including you...his students are not welcome here."
Andy shrugged, not caring about his attitude, and said to himself: "Boss, if you have any news about the professor, please tell him, I have something to do with him."
Aberforth: "..."
Are you convinced of me?
Aberforth looked at Andy with an evil look. Ever since his brother became the principal, the little wizard at Hogwarts has become more and more annoying.
"You want to find him?"
Aberforth suddenly asked: "Let me ask you, do you really understand him?"
Andy laughed when he heard this and said, "Isn't it natural for students to approach the principal to resolve problems? Why do I have to get to know him?"
"And... I'm not interested in his stories. Unless of course it has something to do with magic."
Aberforth snorted and turned his head to show that he didn't want to talk to Andy anymore.
Of course Andy doesn't want to stay here either.
Since Dumbledore is not here, then go back and write him a letter and make an appointment to meet again.
creak-
Andy was about to leave when the door of the bar was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and Dumbledore... Albus Dumbledore walked in from the outside.
"Long time no see, Mr. Collins."
Dumbledore said hello to Andy, then looked at Aberforth and chuckled: "I think you should be more kind to children."
"Hmph!" Aberforth turned and left.
Looking at his back, Andy suddenly understood.
Aberforth definitely had a way to contact Dumbledore, otherwise Dumbledore would not have arrived in such a timely manner.
"Good morning, Professor," Andy said.
Dumbledore invited: "We can go upstairs to talk. The second floor here is a hotel with many free rooms."
Andy: "..."
"Professor, please ask..."
Andy's mouth twitched slightly, and he asked thoughtfully: "Will anyone really spend money to live here?"
Dumbledore looked around after hearing this and said helplessly: "I often remind Aberforth to pay attention to hygiene, but he always pretends not to hear."
While talking, Andy and Dumbledore walked towards the second floor together.
Pushing open a door, Dumbledore chuckled and said, "This room might be better. Aberforth will clean it every day."
Chapter 607 Dumbledore’s Past
Andy looked around.
This is a very ordinary room, but the interior is neatly arranged and looks very clean. It seems a bit out of place compared to the dirty environment downstairs.
Andy noticed that there was a portrait hanging on one wall of the room. The painting was of a girl who looked to be only fourteen or fifteen years old.
After glancing at the portrait, Andy immediately understood.
The girl in the painting should be Dumbledore's sister, Ariana Dumbledore.
"Mr. Collins, please sit down!"
Dumbledore motioned Andy to sit down, and he walked to the portrait and looked at the girl in the painting without saying anything for a long time.
The girl also looked at Dumbledore and smiled slightly at him.
Andy didn't speak or sit down.
At this time, Andy felt a little embarrassed staying here. Faced with an old man who had lost a relative, Andy was unwilling to reveal his sad past again.
I didn't pay much attention to it before, but this time in front of the portrait of his dead sister, Andy really couldn't ask some questions, especially those involving Dumbledore's sister.
To be honest, Andy kind of wanted to leave.
Andy couldn't handle this situation.
"She is my sister, Ariana… Ariana Dumbledore."
After a long silence, Dumbledore spoke first: "I'm glad you can still consider the mood of this old man."
Andy: "..."
People become better with age, that's Dumbledore.
"I have a sister too, so I understand how you feel."
Andy shrugged and said, "Professor, why don't we talk some other time?"
Dumbledore turned his back to Andy and said in a sad tone, "You are a qualified brother, much more qualified than me. If I could have noticed Ariana's mood back then, maybe something like that wouldn't have happened."
Andy was silent after hearing this.
As a boy, Dumbledore really lacked care for his family. During every vacation, he would lock himself in the attic, count his awards, and correspond with the most famous magic masters in the world.
And Andy lived an extra life. In this regard, he must have considered it more comprehensively than the high-spirited Dumbledore.
This is nothing to be proud of.
As for words of comfort... Dumbledore must have heard a lot of them.
"I think she must like you very much and be proud of having such an outstanding brother like you."
Out of etiquette, Andy comforted her, "No one wants an accident like that to happen. I don't think she will blame you."
"Thank you!" said Dumbledore.
After a pause, Dumbledore slowly narrated: "When she was very young, she accidentally performed magic and was seen by three Muggle boys. They did terrible things to her. From then on, she lost all interest in magic. control……"
"The magic is inside her, almost driving her crazy."
"My father taught those Muggles a lesson, but in order to prevent Ariana from being imprisoned in St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Maladies and Maladies for the rest of her life, he didn't say why."
"He was imprisoned in Azkaban for this!"
Dumbledore told the past events in a calm tone. Although Andy had already heard it once, he still listened quietly and did not interrupt.
At the end of the story, Dumbledore met Grindelwald, and the two had a very good chat, and even ignored Ariana because of it.
After his brother Aberforth came back from vacation, he blamed Dumbledore for not taking good care of Ariana and had a conflict with Grindelwald.
That night, three people fought in the yard.
During the melee, someone’s magic suddenly hit Ariana…
What a sad story!
Looking at Dumbledore in front of him, Andy suddenly thought of a sentence - growth requires paying a price.
This price was so painful that Dumbledore still cannot forgive himself for his original stupidity to this day. But it was this painful price that shaped Dumbledore today.
Andy suddenly felt a little lucky that Dumbledore wasn't like Obito (I want to create a world with Ariana), otherwise I don't know what the world would be like.
After telling the story, Dumbledore slowly turned around.
He looked at Andy with slightly deep eyes, "Collins...it seems like you have succeeded!"
"Yes!" Andy admitted frankly.
Andy was not surprised that Dumbledore would know his secret. After all, Andy had borrowed many related books from the restricted book area in order to look up information.
Records are kept of these.
As long as Mrs. Pince, the librarian, knew about it, Dumbledore would naturally know about it.
"But... there are hidden dangers in Obscurus after all..."
This question stunned Grindelwald.
"Yes, Death really exists!"
Unlike Dumbledore, Grindelwald answered this question without any scruples.
"I once used the symbol of the Deathly Hallows as my own mark, just to find the secret of Death."
After a pause, Grindelwald turned his head and looked around, and then said mockingly: "But as you can see, I have given up on this now."
