Hogwarts: I've acquired the Father System

Page 700

“Yes, yes, hiding all the time isn’t a good solution… The Man of Void is indeed most afraid of Dumbledore… There are many powerful wizards there… Darren Porter is also very powerful, he…”

At this moment, Dumbledore appeared.

He looked at Slughorn and said, "Horace, I'm about to leave with Harry. It's getting late, the boy should rest..."

"You're leaving already?"

Slughorn blurted out. Dumbledore laughed.

"It's clear that defeat is inevitable... then we won't bother you any longer."

Dumbledore pulled Harry away as if to leave.

Slughorn suddenly grabbed them.

“I’ll do it, I can do it, Dumbledore, you win! If Darren Porter isn’t as good as you say, I’ll definitely back out, definitely!”

Dumbledore laughed heartily.

Don't worry! See you on September 1st!

Dumbledore pulled Harry out.

When they were some distance apart, Harry suddenly asked, "Why did you have to use Darren to lure him? You...you knew perfectly well that Darren was already..."

He couldn't continue. Tears filled his eyes.

He couldn't continue speaking.

Dumbledore looked at him for a while, then said softly, "Harry, as I said, you've corrected your temper, and we're telling the truth."

Darren has been found. He is in St. Mungo's. Although his injuries are severe, he has fortunately returned after being missing for more than a month.

This happened on the same day I sent you the letter. If you had asked me one more question, I might have told you that he was still alive!

When Harry arrived at the Burrow, he was completely transformed, a wide smile spreading across his face.

The grief that had lingered for over a month suddenly vanished. He lifted Lezi up and kissed it hard on the cheek.

Then, with a hint of disdain, he said, "You'd better eat something, or Darren will be heartbroken if he finds out I've made you lose weight!"

Dumbledore laughed too.

But just as Harry was about to enter the Burrow, he stopped him again.

"Harry, I have to tell you a few things."

First, regarding Darren's matter, I hope you can listen to him more in the future. You know perfectly well that everything he does is for your own good.

Harry nodded vigorously.

"Then, the second thing, about the prophecy orb, I think you should share it with Ron and Hermione."

Such an important matter shouldn't be hidden; it will hurt their feelings. They've been very worried about you!

"I know."

Harry said in a low voice. But he also felt a little resentful.

Darren didn't die, but no one told him. They all kept it from him, watching him grieve every day.

"Well, I think it's more because they also want to teach you a lesson, after all, Darren has protected you too well."

And I think Remus tried to explain to you several times, but you wouldn't listen at all; they even thought you already knew… After all, it's normal that you were upset when Darren went missing.”

Dumbledore said with a smile.

"Next, the third thing is that I hope you can come to my office with Darren to study after the start of the semester."

"I don't have to study with Snape anymore?"

This means I won't have to take his classes this year anymore. Great! My grades shouldn't be high enough to qualify for his Potions class.

Dumbledore corrected him seriously.

"It's Professor Snape, and the grades will be in your hands tomorrow. We'll talk about it then."

Harry nodded.

"Finally, your presence here will allow Molly and the others' letters, as well as the Floo Network, to be monitored. This place receives the most stringent protection the Ministry of Magic can provide."

This also means they face many inconveniences, so if you're here, don't do anything risky, as it will draw criticism from them.

Also, you cannot visit Darren for the time being.

"Why? By what right? Darren is my brother!"

Harry shouted angrily.

He can agree to everything else, but he can't agree to anything that involves Darren!

Chapter 622 No Visiting Allowed!

"Darren hasn't woken up yet; he's seriously injured..."

We kept his return a secret, fearing that Voldemort would break into St. Mungo's and try to kill him.

Darren is likely to get into trouble then, and it will also implicate others.

Although we have already stationed many Aurors at St. Mungo, we do not want war to break out there.

Therefore, you cannot visit him now. Once he wakes up and regains his strength, then you can see him.

"Dumbledore said seriously. Harry paced around irritably."

"Can't I even take a look?"

I'm still worried that Darren is actually dead, and that this news is just something you're using to deceive me.

Otherwise, why did you give me Darren's Gringotts key...?

“We have no reason to lie to you. Just wait a little longer. You’ve already waited for over a month, haven’t you?”

As for why I gave you Darren's Gringotts key, it's because school is about to start.

I think Darren also needs some things to buy. I don't know when he will wake up. If he still hasn't woken up before school starts, you can buy them for him then.

You're like brothers to him, of course you know what he needs.

"Dumbledore said matter-of-factly."

But Harry always felt he did it on purpose. However, he had no proof.

However, he eventually agreed.

As Dumbledore said, he had already waited a month, and even if he was in a hurry, he could wait until next month.

Besides, if Darren wakes up tomorrow, then he can go there tomorrow.

“Great, I see the light is still on in Molly’s kitchen, let’s go in!”

They went through the back door.

Mrs. Weasley's voice immediately rang out.

"who is it!"

"It's me, Dumbledore, and Harry Potter."

Dumbledore said with a smile.

The door opened immediately.

Mrs. Weasley rushed out.

"Oh my god, Albus, Harry, didn't you say you wouldn't be coming until tomorrow morning?"

“We were lucky; Slughorn was easily persuaded… Oh, Nymphadora, you’re here too.”

Dumbledore greeted Tonks. Only then did Harry notice Tonks.

She looked a little tired, but overall she was still happy.

She glanced at Dumbledore somewhat nervously, then ran to Harry's side.

She asked quietly, "Harry, do you know if Darren is awake? When will we see him?"

Harry glanced at Dumbledore.

I discovered that he did not refuse.

So he shook his head and said, "I don't know either, but Dumbledore said Darren hasn't woken up yet and won't let me go see him."

His words carried a hint of resentment.

However, Mrs. Weasley looked at him disapprovingly.

"At this time, you must be vigilant. The person Mysterio wants to kill most is you, Dumbledore, and next is Darren."

If the Mystic knew that Darren was lying in St. Mungo's, he could easily kill him with a Muggle knife.

Then Darren will definitely be killed by him!

Although Severus returned and said that the Mystic was still willing to win Darren over, it's possible that this was just a ploy by the Mystic to lower our guard!
