"I'm also sorry about what I ......did afterwards," Albus Dumbledore continued, looking at Jon with an apologetic look.

Jon couldn't help but frown.

"Since then, I've been trying to guide you and educate you...... I'm acting a little rough, a little selfish......" Dumbledore said slowly, "It may have done you some harm......"

"I have to thank you for your teachings, Professor Dumbledore......" Jon said calmly, "you have taught me a lot. ”

"There's no need to say these things against your will, you can confide in me as much as you want...... How disgusting and disgusting was that bad old man named Dumbledore...... That way, I feel better. Dumbledore shook his head slightly:

"You should have your own path, you should have your own life...... But I didn't respect your choice, and I forcibly pulled you into this war between me and Tom......"

"Actually......" Jon hesitated for a moment, "Professor, I don't care......"

"You've always been a good boy, but there's really no need to say something against my heart to comfort me. Dumbledore sighed, "You wanted to go to France first, didn't you...... You know Tom will be resurrected, and you know that he and I will fight each other, so you want to avoid it all......"

"Chris overheard your conversation with Madame Maxim, and then I understood it all...... I've decided to stop you from doing this......"

"So, you put my name in the Goblet of Fire?" Jon asked tentatively.

"yes, that's why. Dumbledore nodded, "Please forgive an old man for being selfish and possessive...... I've always been that kind of person, whether I want to admit it or not. ”

"I was a little scared when I learned from Peter about Tom's rough plan...... Because in a sense, I was dancing on a tightrope, and Tom was a very, very good wizard, no less than me, if it weren't for the soul-splitting spell that made his brain inflexible...... I was afraid that I would lose, I was afraid that too many people would die in this war, so I took advantage of your ......"

"I threw your name into the Goblet of Fire, and the Goblet of Fire chose you...... Yes, Jon, you're not the same as Harry Potter. ”

"That fake Alastor threw Harry's name into the fourth school with the Confusion Charm to make sure he was the only candidate, and I put your name on the Hogwarts list, and you defeated all your opponents, even if you were much younger, and you got the Goblet of Fire as a Hogwarts Champion...... Although, these things were already expected by me. ”

"Am I supposed to be honored for this?" asked Jon, a little helpless.

"No...... You should be outraged by this," Dumbledore said calmly, "As long as the Goblet of Fire spits out your name, you must participate in the Triwizard Tournament and thus be bound to my side...... For the past two years, I have been very, very sorry for the decision I made......"

"To be honest, I was really angry, because the feeling of having no choice was very uncomfortable......" Jon nodded, "but I was angry for a little while......"

"Because you're not as selfish as I am...... In fact, your response is also very beautiful, and it is a genius idea to let the fake Alastor be killed by Tom instead of you......" Dumbledore looked at Jon apologetically again: "You successfully gave Harry's blood to Tom, and you succeeded in making Alastor a 'double agent'...... You helped me so much a year ago, and if it weren't for you, it wouldn't have worked out so much......"

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry...... I should have told you everything and let you go, but I chose to hide it from you...... The biggest difference between you and Gellert is your kindness and love, but once again I have shamelessly taken advantage of that. ”

"Because I was still scared, because I didn't quite expect Connelly to react so strangely, I even wondered if he was under the Imperius Curse...... Having lost the Ministry of Magic, I found myself at the bottom of my fight with Tom...... So I changed my mind at the last minute, I felt that I still needed your help, and I chose to keep you for another year. ”

"It's okay...... I mean, I'm used to it!" Jon picked up his butterbeer and took a sip.

......

"I owe you many, many ......" Dumbledore picked up the dirty beer glass and drank all the butterbeer in one gulp.

"Nothing is owed, Professor Dumbledore......" Jon hurriedly said, "You are my teacher, you have taught me so much, I just hope you don't hide me from me anymore......"

"And what else do you want to know?" Dumbledore asked with a solemn nod.

Jon's expression became extremely serious, and he said, "For example...... What about Astoria?"

"Blood curse. Dumbledore said with a serious face, "Miss Greengrass was destined to suffer such a curse before she was born, and I personally suppressed it and delayed it for ten years...... But judging from the current situation, my original spell was not as clever as I imagined. ”

Even though he had already guessed, Jon's heart sank.

"Is there really no other way?" he asked, with some reluctance.

"At least I didn't...... I've never been very proficient in these dark arts. Dumbledore shook his head, "That's why I left you that copy of Cutting-Edge Dark Arts Revealed...... I hope you can find the answer above. ”

"I have a little bit of a thought...... But only a little......" Jon said in a mosquito-like voice.

"I can only wish you luck, Jon," Dumbledore patted him lightly on the shoulder, "I will help you as much as I can, if I can do ......"

......

The butterbeer in Jon's cup had been drunk as well.

"One last thing...... Dumbledore said, "I have one last thing to tell you, so you have to come back to the castle with me." ”

"Hmm. Jon put down his dirty glass and nodded.

He turned to look at the frowning girl on the canvas and whispered, "I think we'll have to leave, Miss Dumbledore." ”

A smile bloomed on Ariana Dumbledore's face, and she smiled at Jon deftly, then waved her hand.
