And Bruce!

He followed Dumbledore out of the hall, because there was no one else in the hallway at the Ball, so Bruce asked, "Professor, where are we going?" ”

Dumbledore said; "It's not us, it's you!"

"Me?" Bruce was surprised and said, "What do you mean?" ”

Dumbledore said, "You'll know in a moment." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Hearing this, Bruce had no choice but to suppress the doubts in his heart and follow Dumbledore, but what happened next made him even more puzzling, because Dumbledore did not take him outside the school or to his office, but went straight up to the eighth floor.

They stopped in front of a wall, and Bruce froze. Here he is all too familiar, there is a room for everything!

Dumbledore waved his hand against the wall, and the door to the Room of Requirement appeared and slowly opened.

"Come in." Dumbledore said.

Bruce walked in with a deep sense of curiosity, and once inside, the layout of the Room of Requirement changed, no longer a training ground and a production table, but rows of shelves with dusty debris on them. Seeing this, Bruce thought: Maybe this is what the Room of Requirement is all about.

But he really couldn't figure out why Dumbledore had brought him here, and if there was something important to prevent leaks, then Dumbledore's office was definitely safer than here.

Just as Bruce was confused, Dumbledore led him through the rows of shelves and stopped in front of an oil painting. This oil painting is more than a man tall, and it is so old that it is so old that it is so dusty that it is impossible to see what it is painting.

But as Dumbledore cast a spell on the painting, the painting "opened", leaking an arch and a door.

"Professor, this ...... What is it? Bruce asked, surprised.

"Alas!" Dumbledore looked at the door and shook his head helplessly, sighed, and said, "Go in, you'll know later." ”

"Huh?" Bruce was now in a daze, and Dumbledore said, "You'll understand when you walk through here." Everything you see in it when you come back is your secret and you can tell no one, including me. And no one will force you. ”

After saying this inexplicable word, Dumbledore left. Bruce was a little overwhelmed by his back, and it was a long time before he pushed the door open. Behind the door is a dark walkway. Bruce uses a fluorescent spell, and a "ball of light" appears on his palm to illuminate the aisle.

The hallway was dark, but it wasn't as dense as Bruce had imagined, not even dust. It seemed like someone had walked through it a lot, and it was a long walk for Bruce for ten minutes before he reached the end, during which time he had gone up and down five or six times.

Just as he wondered how long the walk was, the path disappeared after walking up a staircase, and a door appeared in front of him. Bruce pushed open the door and found that it was a bar, and it was a dirty bar, with dust all over the floor as if it were ......

Suddenly Bruce felt as if he had been here, and he stepped out the door into the bar, and when he saw a large man with a thick beard standing at the bar, wiping his glass with a pitch-black cloth, Bruce confirmed his guess. This is Hogsmeade's Hogsmeade's Pig's Head Bar.

The weird owner of the pig's head bar didn't seem to notice that there was an extra person in the shop, still wiping down his glass.

Bruce said, "You ......"

"I knew he was going to let you come!" The boss spoke.

"Huh?!" Bruce looked at him in surprise and said to himself: "It seems that I seem to be blinded, this guy is really not simple." ”

The man put down the cup and the rag, poured what might have been a drink, and said, "Come and sit, little one!" I know you're confused right now. ”

Bruce walked over and looked back to see that the entrance to the passage was a painting of a blonde girl on the wall of the bar's living room.

Bruce made it to the bar and asked, "Sir, what the hell is going on?" ”

The boss said, "Let me introduce myself first, Aberforth Dumbledore!" ”

"Dumbledore?!" Bruce was stunned and said in surprise, "You...... You and ......"

Aberforth nodded and said, "That's right, I'm Albus's younger brother." ”

Bruce smiled in shock and said, "No wonder Harry said you looked like a person last time, so it was. ”

Aberforth laughed, "Surprised? ”

Bruce nodded and said, "Indeed, if you hadn't said it yourself, I really wouldn't have believed that you were Dumbledore's brother." ”

"Of course! Who would believe it? Albus Dumbledore, the greatest wizard in the world, has a weird brother! Aberforth said, his tone full of disdain and anger.

Bruce was stunned again, and then asked cautiously, "Uh!" Sorry, you don't seem to like our headmaster very much. ”

"Humph!" Aberforth sneered and didn't speak.

At this time, Bruce suddenly remembered something and hurriedly looked at the painting, because he remembered that Aberforth had told him last time that the girl in the painting was his sister, which meant that the girl was also Dumbledore's sister, and that the girl had died. Thinking about this, Bruce seemed to understand something.

Bruce's movements fell into Aberforth's eyes without a trace, and he nodded and said, "Albus is right, you are indeed a very smart little fellow. ”

"Thank you!" Bruce said, "But...... I know I shouldn't ask that, but aren't you...... Uh-huh! ”

"Huh!" Aberforth laughed and said, "Not only are you very smart, but you're also a very gossipy little fellow. ”

Bruce smiled awkwardly and said, "Hehe, thank you." ”

Aberforth looked at the painting with a look of nostalgia on his face, and he said, "How many years have it been?" I can't even remember. Let's talk to you, this matter has always been buried in my heart and Albus. It also became the beginning of the separation between our two brothers......"

Maybe it's because he's been suppressed for too long and really needs someone to vent, Aberforth told Bruce what happened, but he never thought that it would be so tortuous.

Their sister was named Ariana Dumbledore. The three Dumbledore siblings were probably the most talented three in the wizarding world at the time, if it hadn't been for that accident. As a child, Ariana was inadvertently cast a spell when she was seen by three Muggle boys, who did terrible things to her.

Aberforth didn't tell Bruce what it was, but from then on Ariana lost control of the magic, and the chaotic magic drove her crazy inside her. Later, their father killed the three boys to avenge his daughter's death, and as a result, they were imprisoned in Azkaban.

According to the laws of the wizarding world, anyone who goes mad because of magic is imprisoned for life in St. Mungo Candra. In order to protect their daughter, their mother took the three of them to hide in a valley and did not let Ariana go to school.

The two brothers Dumbledore doted on their sister very much, but even though the two brothers took good care of Ariana, Ariana killed their mother due to a magical riot. The two brothers did not blame the younger sister for this, but took care of her more carefully.

Originally, everything went well, and although there were no parents, the three siblings lived happily. But later, because of the appearance of a person, the family had another accident, and the two Dumbledore brothers broke up completely.

That man was Gellert Grindelwald, the first Dark Lord before Voldemort, who was known as one of the most dangerous Dark Wizards of all time. It's just that Grindelwald was just an ordinary wizard at that time, because Dumbledore had already graduated from Hogwarts at that time, and Aberforth was still in school. So most of the time it was Dumbledore who took care of his sister.

But because he and Grindelwald were very speculative, especially in terms of magic, the two were even more difficult to get along, and more importantly, Dumbledore fell in love with Grindelwald.

Bruce wasn't surprised by the fact that Dumbledore was gay.

Although he hasn't finished reading the original book, he has seen this information on Du Niang before.

After the two fell in love, Ariana was ignored. When Aberforth learned of this when he returned from school, he blamed his brother for not taking good care of his sister. Despite this, Aberforth did not break with his brother because of this.

But then Grindelwald encouraged Dumbledore, believing that Ariana's situation would drag him and Albus down. Although Dumbledore liked Grindelwald, it didn't mean that he would lose his mind because of love. He strongly opposed this, and later because of Grindelwald's insistence, the Dumbledore brothers clashed with Grindelwald.

All three of them are top wizards in the wizarding world, and the damage caused by such a melee can be imagined. During the scuffle, Ariana was innocently injured, making her unable to control her emotions and her magic exploded and eventually died.

Later, Dumbledore defeated Grindelwald with his own hands and was crowned "The Greatest Wizard". But he lost both his sister and his brother. Because Aberforth blamed Dumbledore for his sister's death, he eventually broke with his brother. And the exploits in that great war are also not mentioned.

Hearing this, Bruce seemed to understand why Dumbledore would take care of Harry so often. Aside from the fact that he is the savior, what happened to the two is very similar. They all received coveted honors, but they all paid a heavy price.

Although Aberforth and Dumbledore had broken up, he still sided with his brother when Voldemort appeared. Voldemort was later defeated by Harry, but Dumbledore believed that Voldemort was just fleeing. So the wizard who had played a great role in the two "wizarding wars" willingly went into seclusion to Hogsmeade, and since then he has become a strange man to help his brother gather information.

When Aberforth finished, Bruce finally understood why Dumbledore had said that in the Room of Requirement.
