Chapter 367: Why don't you hang them on the roof and whip them fiercely?
Because of this, Ivan has always been reluctant to meet with Dumbledore, and this feeling of powerlessness makes him very uncomfortable.
However, to Ivan's surprise, from the moment he entered the door, he didn't feel any signs that Dumbledore had used Soul Capture, and he didn't know if he had used it on Hermione and he didn't notice it...
"Can you tell me what you're doing with the time turner?" Dumbledore asked.
"It's something personal, and it's not my convenience to tell you... Professor! Ivan hesitated and shook his head.
What can he say? Said that he returned to Tumbledown Alley to save Althea and killed a group of vicious dark wizards?
Although the dead were all thugs, he was now just a thirteen-year-old wizard with so many lives in his hands, it was hard to say what Dumbledore would have thought when he heard the news.
Ivan's words disappointed Dumbledore, but he didn't mean to continue. Ivan insisted that he would not be able to ask anything...
"In that case, then I must punish you for violating the rules this time!" Dumbledore spoke in a deep voice.
Ivan's heart went to his throat, and Hermione pursed her lips in fear and fear...
Dumbledore crossed his fingers, looked at Ivan with blue eyes, and spoke.
"First of all, you! Hals! You have violated the regulations of the Ministry of Magic by using a time turner to go back in time, and Gryffindor House will be deducted 100 points for your actions! ”
"And you... Miss Granger! Dumbledore's gaze turned to Hermione again, "You're not doing your due diligence, so I'm going to deduct another fifty points from Gryffindor House!" and confiscate the timer, for you do not have the ability to keep it. ”
After Dumbledore finished speaking, he silently waited for the two of them to digest the news...
Hermione lowered her head and was very sad, and Ivan was a little surprised,
Only.. That's it? Deduct points?
Ivan was confused, and after thinking about it, he took the initiative to say.
"Professor, what about reparations? I broke the time turner, how many gold galleons do I have to pay the Ministry of Magic? ”
Ivan asked Dumbledore about the approximate price of the time turner, and at the same time felt a little distressed, although most of the gold gallons he saved were exploited from Lockhart, it was also hard-earned money!
It's just that Dumblebe didn't continue to speak for a long time, Ivan's heart sank, and he asked tentatively.
"Is three thousand Galleons enough?"
"Five thousand Galleons?" Ivan felt his heart clench, and Dumbledore was silent.
"Ten thousand Galleons?!" Ivan was desperate, he could only come up with ten thousand Galleons at most...
Where did you get so much money? Dumbledore looked at Ivan in surprise, and he wondered if Ivan had done something unsightly when he went back in time...
"No need for compensation, you're lucky this time, I happen to know an alchemist who should be able to repair this time turner." Dumbledore explained.
Ivan slowly breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense expression relaxed. That way, they wouldn't have to worry about the Ministry of Magic getting into trouble with them.
Hermione, on the other hand, was a little strange, she had read in a book that the method of making a time turner had been lost for hundreds of years, and it was said that no one knew how to make and repair a time turner.
Ivan remembered that Bock had told him that Nick Lemay still have the method of making a time turner.
And Nick Lemay happens to be one of Dumbledore's friends, so the alchemy master in the old professor's mouth can only be him!
Thinking of this, Ivan was somewhat moved, it was not easy to improve with his current level of alchemy, Nick Lemay was one of the few people in the wizarding world who had the ability to teach him.
Ivan opened his mouth, but he didn't speak, he had just broken a time turner, and he really didn't have the face to ask Dumbledore to meet with Nick Lemay.
Besides, he and Nick Lemay are not related to each other, and there is no reason for the other party to teach him alchemy.
"Professor Dumbledore, what about our class?" Hermione suddenly thought of the schedule for tomorrow morning, and now that she didn't have a time turner, she no longer had the ability to take several classes at the same time.
"Then you need to cancel a few conflicting courses, and you will personally apologize and explain to the professors of each subject!" As he spoke, Dumbledore paused, and then said solemnly,
"So I hope you will remember this profound lesson..."
Seeing that the two of them nodded solemnly and took these words to heart, Dumbledore waved his hand. "Alright... If nothing else, you can leave! ”
"Thank you, Professor!" Before leaving, Ivan said gratefully.
Ivan knew that if Dumbledore hadn't found someone to help fix the time turner, they would be held accountable by the Ministry of Magic, and that there would be no point deduction to solve...
After the two of them left the principal's office, the place was quiet again.
Dumbledore stared at the badly damaged time-turner in his hand, lost in thought.
On the portrait in the back, an old man with a long beard chatters.
"Albus, you have been so merciful to these students who have made mistakes, who have broken a precious time turner, and who are planning to lie and hide what they have done.
If I were the headmaster, I would have hung them from the roof and whipped them hard! Then they will be locked up in a small dark room until they will tell the truth! ”
"Mr. Black, I need to remind you that the bad practice of corporal punishment of students was abolished decades ago! I have to follow the school rules..."Dumbledore casually explained.
In the existing school rules, it is not without means of punishment.
It was only considering that Ivan and Hermione had too many classes and didn't have much time, and these small punishments didn't have much effect, so Dumbledore didn't mention it.
As for Ivan's deliberate concealment of what he had done to go back to the past, Dumbledore was also a little helpless, and he didn't want to use Dementorship to learn everything unless necessary.
In particular, he has sensed that Ivan is wary of this, and has even learned to create false memories to fool himself with his brain.
Forcibly using the Dementor in such a situation would only have the opposite effect, making Ivan even more dissatisfied and wary of himself...
"Fawkes! Take me to Nick! Dumbledore thought for a moment, grabbed the time turner, stood up, turned to look at Fawkes, and spoke.
