Lucius turned to leave, but Dobby the house-elf standing behind him was behaving strangely.
His lightbulb-sized eyes stared thoughtfully at Harry, pointing at the diary on Dumbledore's desk, pointing at Malfoy, and hitting himself on the head with his fist.
A light flashed in Harry's mind, and he suddenly understood.
He nodded to Dobby, and Dobby flinched back into the corner, pulling his ear again as punishment.
"Mr. Malfoy, don't you want to know how Ron got the diary?" said Harry.
"Hmph!" Lucius looked at Harry in disgust, "My time is very precious, and I'm not interested in paying attention to how a stupid twelve-year-old boy got a ridiculous diary."
"Really..." Harry dragged his voice, "Ron said just now that he found this diary from Ginny's Transfiguration textbook, and I remember that you just picked it up at the Lihen Bookstore. Ginny's Transfiguration textbook, you must have taken the opportunity to sneak the diary in there, didn't you?"
Hearing his words, Mr. Weasley jumped up and looked at Lucius Malfoy angrily. If Mrs. Weasley hadn't stopped him, he would have rushed up.
Ivan noticed that Lucius' pale hands were clenched into fists, and then loosened.
"Is there any proof?" he said hoarsely.
"Oh, no one can provide evidence!" Dumbledore said with a smile, "After all, Riddle has disappeared from this book, but, Lucius, I want to give you a piece of advice, don't spread the words of Voldemort's student days." Old things from the old ones. If any more of these fall into innocent hands, at least Arthur will be sure to find out where they came from you!"
Lucius Malfoy stood still for another moment, his right hand moved as if to reach for his wand, but he restrained himself.
"I'll take your advice to heart, Dumbledore." He turned to the house-elf. "Here we go, Dobby!"
He twisted open the door, and the house-elf came running, Lucius kicking him out the door, and Dobby's screams of pain could be heard fading down the corridor.
Looking at Lucius' back, Ivan silently mourned for him in his heart. Poor Malfoy, he probably didn't know that the diary he stuffed out would be Voldemort's Horcrux. When Voldemort returned in two years' time, he would have a hard time.
Harry stood there staring at the diary, frowning and thinking hard for a moment.
"Professor Dumbledore!" he said hastily, "may I return this diary to Mr Malfoy, please?"
"Of course, Harry!" Dumbledore said calmly, "But after this, you need to go to the school hospital. Madam Pomfrey has prepared a cure for you."
Harry grabbed the diary and rushed out of the office. Ivan thought for a while, and hurriedly whispered something in Hermione's ear. She nodded and ran over. Ron, Hagrid, and the Slys also had expressions on their faces. Followed worriedly.
In a blink of an eye, only Dumbledore and Ivan were left in the office.
"Sit down, Ivan!" Dumbledore pointed to the chair in front of him, "It seems that you have something to say to me."
Ivan nodded, and sat on it cautiously. Since Dumbledore's attention has been attracted, he must not be able to hide, so it is better to take the initiative.
"Relax, do you need some cockroach piles? I heard you like it very much." Dumbledore picked up a can of candy from the table and reached out to Ivan.
"No, professor!" Ivan shook his head hastily. He only advertised this kind of candy in the newspaper once. Who knows how it spread that he likes it.
"Actually, I also have something to tell you. First of all, I must thank you for helping Harry in the Chamber of Secrets." Dumbledore's eyes sparkled, "I haven't seen you for a long time except Riddle I have never had such an excellent little wizard like you. Seeing you seems to remind me of an old friend."
Although the other party said it easily, Ai Wen was secretly vigilant in his heart.
He knows Dumbledore's dark history, and his old friend probably only has the first generation of the Dark Lord. This is not a happy evaluation.
"You are overrated, professor!" Ivan said modestly, "I just know a little more than other people in my grade. In Hermione's words, I'm just studying hard."
"It's not as simple as dying to read. I have read the articles you wrote. I have subscribed to almost every issue of the "Hogwarts Wizardry" you run."
"Professor, if you mean the article on the academic research section, I'm sorry, it was provided to me by Riddle. I didn't know he was Voldemort at the time."
"Yeah, those studies are indeed very in-depth. As I said just now, Riddle may be the best student Hogwarts has ever seen." Dumbledore stared at Ivan, "You are very similar to him in some ways , but you two are different, you have your own friends."
Hearing the other party's words, Ivan breathed a sigh of relief.
He knew that this was Dumbledore's recognition of himself, his relationship with Harry, his attitude towards power, and his Muggle background finally made the other party let go of his guard.
Otherwise, he couldn't guarantee that under Dumbledore's close attention, he still had any secrets at Hogwarts.
If there is a little dangerous action, I'm afraid it will be killed in the bud without hesitation.
After all, Dumbledore is already old, and he cannot allow the appearance of the third generation of Dark Lord.
But then again, Aiwen really has no interest in power, immortality, rights, bloodlines and so on.
So, Dumbledore was just worrying blindly.
Just when Ivan was about to leave to find Harry, Dumbledore suddenly asked, "Ivan, do you know what that diary is?"
"I know, it's a Horcrux!" Ivan said directly.
The next second, he jumped up directly!
Damn it, I obviously planned to hide it. It is not a wise thing to reveal his strength prematurely. Although he intends to fight Voldemort, he does not want to be regarded as a pawn that can be sacrificed by Dumbledore at any time.
But I don't know why, Dumbledore's voice seems to have a magical power, which can make people unconsciously say everything in their hearts.
Hearing Ivan's words, Dumbledore was stunned for a long time. This is really a surprising result. He did think that the boy in front of him might have guessed something. He originally planned to reveal some information, but he didn't expect that Ivan already knew so much. too much.
"That's right, it's a Horcrux, can you tell me how you know that?" Dumbledore said kindly.
"It was Rowena Ravenclaw who told me that it was a very evil spell that could tear people's souls apart."
"What?!" Dumbledore was really stunned when Ivan mentioned Rowena Ravenclaw.
Now that the words have been spoken, they cannot be taken back. In order to avoid unnecessary doubts from the other party, Aiwen hurriedly went back to the thousand years ago and told them in detail, including the debate between the four founders and the secrets they left treasure.
"Ravenclaw's time-turner, this is really amazing!" Dumbledore quickly recovered his composure, "It's a wonderful experience, Ivan, I hope you can pass the test of the four founders and successfully find those hidden treasures. Treasure."
Ivan nodded, it seemed that the other party believed him.
"Since the four founders of Hogwarts are mentioned." Dumbledore said unhurriedly, "then you must know that Voldemort is the last heir of Salazar Slytherin, and he should also be the last Parsel but Harry speaks Parseltongue, and if I'm not mistaken, he transferred some of his own spells to Harry the night he scarred him."
Ivan shrank back, not knowing what Dumbledore meant, of course he knew what the other party said, and he even knew that Harry was also a Horcrux.
"I mean, no matter what the situation is, no matter what the accident, you'll always be on Harry's side, right?"
"That's right!" Ivan replied hastily, "He is my friend, and I will definitely help him, whether it is facing Voldemort or anyone else."
