A thousand years ago, Rove traveled to the forests of Albania to collect Helena's body, and accidentally witnessed Ravenclaw's death.

Helena was killed by Barrow, there is no doubt about it, but there is no evidence of whether her mother, Ravenclaw, was killed by Slytherin.

At least, when Rove arrived at the scene of the crime, he only saw Ravenclaw's body, not the murderer.

And thousands of years later, Grindelwald extracted memories through the soul in the basilisk's body, and finally confirmed the murderer...... It's Salazar Slytherin!

Slytherin, one of the Big Four, kills Ravenclaw, which sounds like a psychedelic thing, but there is also a good motive.

Hufflepuff had speculated that Slytherin might have been trying to get the 'Sealed Left Arm' to complete the ancient wizard's body.

But Rov never expected that Slytherin had made Horcruxes when he was still killing Ravenclaw!

And the existence of the Horcrux is enough to show that Slytherin himself is still alive...... This is extremely bad news.

"When I was extracting memories, I also found something interesting."

Grindelwald stretched out a withered, spotted hand, gently stroked the skeleton pouch and said:

"After Slytherin killed Ravenclaw, he quietly returned to Hogwarts, let the basilisk into the Chamber of Secrets, and began a long slumber."

"After that, in the years of nearly a thousand years, the basilisk was awakened three times and met three wizards."

"Corvinus Gaunt, Tom Riddle, and ......" Rove held out a finger and pointed at himself, "I." ”

"That's right." Grindelwald nodded:

"Corvinus Gaunt has been with the basilisk the longest, and he has left Hogwarts with him......"

Dumbledore shifted his gaze to Grindelwald and frowned, "Where did they go?" ”

Hearing Dumbledore's words, Grindelwald seemed to have a great sense of accomplishment and satisfaction, and deliberately sold Guan Zidao:

"Guess?"

"You love to talk about it or not."

"Then I won't talk about it."

“……”

For a moment, Rove felt that he was standing in this room, that he was superfluous, and he wanted to leave immediately, leaving them both in a two-person world.

The two of them tugged for a long time before Grindelwald said slowly:

"They went to the Ilvermorny School of Witchcraft and Wizardry."

"Ilvermorny?" Rove was surprised to hear the name, "What is Gaunt doing there with the basilisk?" ”

"I don't know." Grindelwald shook his head, "That basilisk and Slytherin's soul are entangled, and my memories are so fragmented that I can't extract effective information. ”

Dumbledore was thoughtful.

Grindelwald didn't bother him with his thoughts, instead staring intently at Rove.

"One more thing, boy, is that both Gaunt and Riddle follow the basilisk...... Or, in other words, under the spell of a Horcrux, he learned the dark magic left behind by Slytherin.

Tom Riddle, in particular, had a basilisk kill a schoolgirl and make a Horcrux at the age of sixteen. ”

Grindelwald paused, stroked his sleeve with his scrawny, wrinkled fingers before continuing:

"And you...... He rejected the basilisk and did not follow it to learn Slytherin magic. ”

"Can't you?" Rove asked rhetorically.

"That's all powerful magic, you see Voldemort, now he's the best junior after me."

Grindelwald's blue eyes were deep and cold, and he smiled:

"If you dislike Slytherin magic, you can learn from me, and I promise you won't lose to Voldemort in the future."

Rove couldn't help but smile, looked at Dumbledore and said:

"Professor, I'm reporting Grindelwald to you, he has bad intentions and wants to develop me into the Umno Party. I suggest you transfer him to Azkaban and be re-educated as a Dementor. ”

“……”

Dumbledore came back from his contemplation, and he smiled:

"Rove, I'll consider your suggestion, feel free to wander around and visit Grindelwald's prison...... Go ahead. ”

Rove snorted and turned away, leaving the room to Dumbledore and Grindelwald, and when he went out, he gave the door to ...... Locked.

Grindelwald stared at Dumbledore with a meaningful smile.

"What, are you afraid that I will teach him badly and lead him astray?"

"I'm not worried." Dumbledore said calmly:

"I've been with Rove for a long time, and I know this kid better than you do, and he still has a long way to go, but it's definitely not something you can influence."

"Besides." The old man paused and said, "With me and Newt here, it won't make Rove a second you." ”

"You're so optimistic about him?" Grindelwald wondered.

"Of course, I wouldn't have brought him to you." Dumbledore laughed:

"It's not just Rove that I'm optimistic about, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw as well."

"That's just because he used a time turner, traveled back a thousand years, and met them, and it doesn't mean anything." Grindelwald insisted.

"The fact that Rove can use a time turner, go back a thousand years, and come back unscathed speaks a lot." Dumbledore laughed:

"You and I are far inferior to him at his age...... He has more kindness to the world than you do, and knows what he wants better than I do. ”

"Anyway, I like this kid."

Grindelwald raised a sparse eyebrow, which soothed again when he and Dumbledore's eyes met.

"Albus, if I had a teacher like you to guide me, I'm sure everything would have been different.

Perhaps, that wrong summer, it wouldn't have happened, and we wouldn't have reached this point. ”

Hearing the phrase "Wrong Summer", memories crept back into Dumbledore's heart, some old wounds will never heal, and just a few short words will gurgle again.

The old man said bitterly:

"Gellert, it is pointless to indulge in the past and regrets, and to imagine that it belongs to the old man in the twilight."

"But I'm an old man in the twilight, every day except waiting for death, there are only memories left."

Grindelwald stood quietly by the window, facing the sky alone, the cold wind whistling around him.

"I'm probably dying, and I've been dreaming about the past lately...... Especially that day, when the two of us lay on the grass and made a blood pact, vowing never to turn our backs on each other and never hurt each other.

The sun was shining that day. ”

Dumbledore fell silent.

Suddenly a light rain fell outside the window, and it hit Grindelwald's face obliquely, like tears, but he didn't seem to feel it at all, but sighed:

"You thought it was another normal day, only to find out years later that it was actually the best day of your life.

It's just a day like that, never again. ”

Dumbledore was silent, but his eyes were full of sadness.
