Ten years ago

I'm still a student, you're not a professor

We're still the same

Stay with Hogwarts

Walk through the corridors that are becoming more familiar

Ten years later

We are friends and can also say hello

Just that kind of gentleness

You can't find the feeling of being uninhibited anymore

Eventually, the campus will inevitably become a society

࿒࿐⋆˃̵͙˂̵͙⍣dividing line⍣˃̵͙˂̵͙⋆࿐࿒

The four people in the office discussed the details of tomorrow and then dispersed.

Hermione and Ron had made their way to Diagon Alley, and the tea leaves in her office were gone, and they had to be replenished.

However, Hermione soon noticed that something was wrong with Ron, "What are you thinking?" She asked.

"Nothing." Ron whispered, "I just realize that we can't go back to the old days when we could solve things together without any worries, and now we have too many things to take into account when we want to solve a problem, just like Fudge did back then." ”

As Hermione and Ron make their way to the Burrow through the store's fireplace, under the watchful eye of the dress-clad salesman at the Weasley's magic trick workshop, Neville had just finished reporting to Professor McGonagall about what the four of them had discussed today.

Professor McGonagall looked at Neville coldly, much to Neville's discomfort.

Silence in the Headmaster's office lasted for about five minutes, before Professor McGonagall finally waved Neville's hand and said "Just do as you say." ”

After Neville left the office, Professor McGonagall leaned back in his chair and sighed.

The status of "descendant of Voldemort" is a hot roasted sweet potato for former Death Eaters like the Malfoys, but it is a tempting political resource for Neville.

When Dumbledore was cultivating Harry Potter, he didn't have the light of "savior". With Harry in hand, a lot of things are much easier to do, such as gathering the Order of the Phoenix for a second time, such as working with 10 Downing Street.

Neville must also be planning to draw these two people to his side, so that the sign of "educating and reforming the descendants of Voldemort" can add a lot of highlights to Neville.

Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and there are all kinds of open and secret battles between professors in Hogwarts. It's just that Dumbledore's golden sign shook before, and the professors' little caution was put away.

But Professor McGonagall's prestige was far inferior to Dumbledore's, and Voldemort's threat was gone, and some people began to stir up. On the day of school, she also planned to let Zhang Xu attend the opening banquet, and then put some pressure on some people, but Zhang Xu realized that the situation was wrong at the first time, so he left the UK early the next morning.

Among the professors who were in the same class as Professor McGonagall, Professor Sprout was still the head of Hufflepuff, but she no longer had any teaching duties, and she was now fully devoted to the study of herbal genetics. Professor Flitwick, as Vice-Chancellor, is very simple, and although he is the same age as Professor McGonagall, he has no secret of his goal of waiting for Professor McGonagall to sit in the position of Chancellor for a few years after his retirement.

Among the other professors, Hagrid only sees those animals and his lover in Beauxbatons, Professor Barblin has changed jobs a few years ago, Professor Trelawney has never been stained with the red world, Professor Sinista only cares about the stars in the sky, and Professor Victor is still a small and transparent one......

Lupin and Blake were calm, the former was strictly neutral and had no desires, and the latter originally wanted to dance, but after being suppressed by Malfoy's old accounts, he was unhappy.

Professor McGonagall was most surprised by Professor Rodney, who at first thought that the former military figure would cause trouble at Hogwarts, but who knew that her later thoughts outside of teaching were placed on her daughter, who suddenly appeared and claimed to be a drunken gift.

Among the professors, the most powerful dancers are Faranier, who is stuffed in by the school board, and Neville, who is secretly against him.

Now, it seems, Neville has found an opportunity to jump out.

The only thing that is most worrying is Professor Binns.

With the retirement of his generation, I don't know what kind of trouble the new professors will make in the future. Thinking of this, Professor McGonagall had to sigh, "It's not easy to lead the team." ”

"So I saw that the limelight in Britain was not right now, so I left as soon as possible." As soon as Zhang Xu's words were finished, with a "pop", a disposable paper cup containing a glass of water smashed on the table in front of him. Fortunately, there was a spell, and the tap water in the paper cup did not spill half a drop.

Subsequently, a cup of hot honey lemon tea and a small plate of various flavors of gummies appeared in front of the master sitting opposite Zhang Xu.

"In Beverly Hills, a servant like you is unique." Zhang Xu didn't get angry because he was treated lightly, but joked about the male maid who hadn't given him a good look in the past few years, "Why haven't you returned to Newmondyard?" ”

"When he's really dead, I'll go back after I'll stuff him back in the grave." Grindelwald said, pointing to the old man on the side.

"Okay, well, I'll die tomorrow." Zhang Xu had heard Dumbledore's words for several years.

Some people are alive, he is dead, and this is a perfect way to describe Dumbledore now.

Dumbledore's illness was not faked, but his problem was that his magic power was almost completely lost, and in the end he was not even as good as Filch, but his body could last for a long time under the treatment of Slughorn's special potion.

It's just that in the context of the times at that time, a Dumbledore who had no combat effectiveness was far less useful than a Dumbledore who died in battle, so he co-starred with Snape in a play, and he couldn't die by jumping out of the window of Hogwarts anyway.

Dumbledore, who used the same fake death pill as Snape and Harry, can be said to have been sealed in the tomb while he was alive, and Slughorn, one of the insiders, took him out of the tomb through a secret passage that night, and then came to the United States to live in seclusion with the help of Newt Scamander.

Afterwards, Slughorn revised his memories again, and Snape still closed his mind, so the incident was kept from everyone.

However, there are two other people who know about the matter. One was someone Zhao who provided him with the formula for the fake death pill in the year of the Triwizard Tournament, and the other was someone whose company published "A Biography of Dumbledore" and regularly remitted royalties to Dumbledore's account to allow him to live a reclusive life. Chapter 169

And these two people hid this matter from Zhang at the same time.

Later, Qian Ziye, who was on the road in the film industry, went to fool Dumbledore and starred in the "Lord of the Rings" series of movies after changing his appearance a little, and like many retired old cadres, he suddenly felt very uncomfortable when he was idle, and Dumbledore, who also liked acting very much, finally agreed to him.

Less than five minutes after the world premiere of the first part of "The Lord of the Rings", Zhang, who could see the clue from a little detail of Gandalf's demeanor, movements and expressions, immediately rushed out of the movie theater, and then came to England and threw Grindelwald into a plane to the United States.

What happened later Zhang didn't know, he came to the door a week later with the IOU left by Dumbledore.

Now Grindelwald is very disgusted with this guy who must hold a stack of IOUs and shout for Dumbledore to pay off his debts every time he comes to the door, and Grindelwald never gives him a good face every time Zhang Xu comes.

Dumbledore retired with an Oscar for Best Supporting Actor after a few years in the film industry, but because his "death" has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, other uninformed people only regard him as an actor who looks a little like Dumbledore.

Based on the principle of spending all the money he earned from making movies before he died, Dumbledore bought a luxurious villa in Beverly Hills. So whenever Zhang Xu waved the stack of IOUs, he always said: "Okay, when I die, this villa will be used to pay off the debt." "Zhang Xu didn't really want him to pay back the money, but he was just angry that Dumbledore faked his death and deceived himself.

Dumbledore ate a gummy, and then said to Zhang Xu with a smile: "Isn't this situation the result you have always wanted?" ”

"Isn't your reading room, and your Muggle studies class, something about a lot of party politics?"

"So you should be happy."

Zhang Xu took a sip of the tap water in the paper cup, then sighed, and said, "I'm just surprised that all this came so quickly." I thought it would take years for wizards in England to start taking this step. ”

"But I didn't expect that Voldemort's last order to Lucius was to let him scout Buckingham Palace. And Lucius directly handed over the business card, and finally let him meet the queen, and then, with the support of the queen, Voldemort established a wizarding party under slogans such as 'support local capital, fight to the comprador class'. In the history books in the future, I am afraid that his reputation will not be below the two of you. ”

After listening to Zhang Xu's complaints, Dumbledore just smiled and drank tea, and Grindelwald just "snorted".

Then Zhang Xu said to Grindelwald: "Maybe they can enter 10 Downing Street through a parliamentary struggle and achieve the victory that Your Excellency failed to get back then." ”

Grindelwald said disdainfully: "Parliamentary struggle is a crooked crooked way of cowards." ”

Dumbledore put down the empty teacup, and said, "This shows that wizards are tired of the wizarding world that has remained unchanged for hundreds of years, and everyone is eager for change in their hearts. ”

"Like you said before, a person's position determines his behavior, and they just change their world in their own position."

Zhang Xu picked up the empty paper cup in his hand and played for a while, and then asked, "Are you two interested in changing the world again?" ”

"Hey, hey." Grindelwald sneered twice, "Be careful of scaring the Aurors outside to death when you say this. ”

It is impossible for the Magic Congress of the United States not to know that the two bigwigs are living in seclusion here, although they will not interfere in their daily lives, but the necessary surveillance, or disguised protection, is still needed, and the two bigwigs are also aware of this situation.

Now the two sides have reached a tacit understanding that if one side does not make trouble, the other side will pretend that nothing is known.

It's just that the American Auror, who was called out of the villa garden again, was embarrassed at this time, and the one-eyed Auror couldn't help but reach out and scratch his black and shiny head.

Dumbledore didn't care, he shook his head with a smile, stretched out his finger and pointed at Grindelwald and said, "We've all changed the world in our own way, but he failed." ”

Then he pointed to himself, "Looks like I've succeeded." ”
