Chapter 8: Complicated Dumbledore

Zhang Jin didn't believe Dumbledore's words, otherwise the old man wouldn't have appeared so in time, just when Severus was tidying up the room.

Seeing that Zhang Jin didn't want to speak, Dumbledore could only speak by himself, "Severus, we should talk openly and honestly, it's good for you and me."

"We don't have anything to talk about, we didn't have it before, and even more so after you didn't protect Lily, I promised you to protect Lily's children, that's all, there's nothing to say" Zhang Jin's tone was very unkind, Severus had a lot of resentment towards Dumbledore.

If Severus resented himself the most, the Dark Lord and Potter were the second, and Dumbledore and the stupid dog whistleblower were close behind, coming in third.

Therefore, it is impossible for Zhang Jin to have a good face towards Dumbledore, especially since Zhang Jin knows that Dumbledore is an extremely complex character.

Whether it was towards family, friends, or students, or even towards himself, Dumbledore's attitude was always vague.

Usually it seems to be extremely gentle and kind, but if it is necessary, it may be possible to turn the other cheek in the next moment, although this is rare.

And the reason why Zhang Jin hates Dumbledore is also his attitude towards Severus.

For example, when Severus went to find Dumbledore and hoped that Dumbledore would protect Lily, the contempt and ridicule in Dumbledore's eyes were very obvious.

And when I saw him at school, he was always kind and kind.

And when Lily died and went back to him, Dumbledore looked sad again, and the words of apology pushed Severus deeper into the abyss, making Severus struggle for the rest of his life.

"You told Voldemort about that prophecy, Severus, that you killed Lily. Evans...... But her child is still alive, and you have to protect that child in order to atone for your sins. ”

To this day, Zhang Jin still remembers every word and expression Dumbledore said.

His love was true, his words were true, and his hope might be to save Severus, the dying life.

But are there any other plans? Did Dumbledore suspect that Voldemort wasn't dead after seeing Harry?

At that time, Dumbledore was the only one in the wizarding world who believed that Voldemort was still alive, and even the Death Eaters were desperate.

Dumbledore also succeeded, and Severus survived, only living according to his will, with endless pain, remorse, and despair.

Such Severus has made countless people remember.

And such a Dumbledore made countless people resentful.

This may have something to do with Dumbledore's early experience, the original Dumbledore was not a mild-tempered person, and now everyone knows that the old man with the white beard is a kind and gentle headmaster.

And this kindness and gentleness hides his contradictory heart.

Needless to say, the relationship between Old Deng and Grindelwald was officially hammered, but Dumbledore still locked him up in Newmengard, and the conditions were quite rudimentary.

However, Dumbledore still cherishes his friendship with Grindelwald very much, and may even visit him every year.

Poor Gellert. Grindelwald could only sleep on a hard bed and eat black bread, and the image he cared about so much became sloppy and his face was withered.

And Dumbledore turned a blind eye to these.

In terms of students, Harry, needless to say, the savior has been arranged by Dumbledore from birth, even if it seems to be a voluntary death in the end, it is in Dumbledore's expectation, otherwise he would not have given Harry the resurrection stone and waited for Harry in the Blurred Illusion.

As Severus said, raising Harry is like raising a pig to the slaughter, and a pig with infinite love.

Don't say that Old Deng knew that Harry couldn't die or something, if he could calculate so comprehensively, there wouldn't be so many things behind, and all Dumbledore did was try to save Harry.

No one doesn't die, and it's not surprising that Harry died, and it can only be said that he survived in the end.

And Dumbledore kept saying that for the sake of the students, for the sake of the students, and for the protection of the school. But in the end, the whole school was drawn into the war, not to mention the casualties.

These are not at all like the actions of a kind elder.

And it just so happened that Dumbledore's love and kindness to his students was not pretended.

Therefore, this person is very contradictory and complicated, not a character who can be deeply acquainted, let alone a person who can be trusted by Zhang Jin.

In the late Harry Potter finale, both the wizarding world and fans who have watched the movie have a very complicated evaluation of Dumbledore, which is simply two sides upside down.

Neither conspiracy theorists nor those who believe in white wizards can convince each other.

In Zhang Jin's view, Dumbledore's complexity comes from his early experience of losing a loved one, which gave Dumbledore more kindness and compassion, and also gave Dumbledore more jealousy and prejudice against dark magic, as well as resistance to ambition.

In Zhang Jin's opinion, Dumbledore is unqualified both as the headmaster and as the leader of the Order of the Phoenix, although his personal strength is strong, his thinking is too old.

Especially for the prejudice against black magic.

It's better for such people to stay away, even if they can't avoid it, they have to deal with it less.

So Zhang Jin didn't want to pay attention to Dumbledore.

"Is that a potion of melting? Congratulations Severus, I'm glad that Professor Slughorn is still a Potions Master" Dumbledore clearly spotted the potion that Zhang Jin had just taken out and recognized it.

The other two Zhang Jin did not take them out again.

"If it's all right, please leave, Professor Dumbledore, I'm going to start making potions" Zhang Jin finally spoke, her voice as low and slightly hoarse as Severus's.

"You may have misunderstood me, I understand, Severus" Dumbledore said unhurriedly, "I didn't expect that, really, Lily and Potter are good boys"

"Don't mention that name to me, Professor Dumbledore, tell me your purpose, and get out of here" There was a rush of anger in his chest, and Zhang Jin could only suppress it tightly.

Zhang Jin really began to hate Dumbledore, especially this kind of behavior that is clearly trying to keep rubbing salt on your wounds.

I only hoped that Dumbledore would realize and leave as soon as possible, and apparently, that hope was dashed.

Dumbledore actually said directly: "Well, Severus, I don't think you should accept Prince's legacy, especially with Voldemort's help in this process, it will be very bad for you." ”

Dumbledore was still kind, looking like he was thinking of you: "Our minister, Mr. Minister, has been very wary of me since he decided that Voldemort died. Crouch is even known for his disgust with dark wizards daring to resist Voldemort, and he has sentenced four people to life imprisonment in the last two days, some without trial. ”

Zhang Jin: "I am the only heir of Prince, I don't need anyone's help"
