"Don't be angry, Gidero. Hermione quickly stood up and hugged him, "I don't believe it, it's all because this book is too decent." ”

"But Hermione just showed me those letters......" Harry held up a stack of letters in his hand and looked at Lockhart, "It's the Headmaster's letter to Grindelwald, from the time the Headmaster was young until the previous years, once every few years, almost never broken." If the Headmaster really broke off Grindelwald's ambitions and broke off his kindness, how could he have kept in correspondence for so many years?"

"What?" Not only was Lockhart taken aback, but even Blake couldn't help but come over to see the letter Grindelwald had sent to Dumbledore.

The stack of things in Harry's hand looked familiar, wasn't it pulled out of the book Dumbledore had left behind, he didn't care at the time, it was actually Grindelwald and his correspondence?

"Bring it!" Lockhart snatched the item from Harry's hand.

"I felt the tone of the dialogue was very strange when I watched these things before......" Hermione looked at Lockhart carefully, and said, "I didn't expect to solve my doubts today - the headmaster, he's actually gay!"

Lockhart's mind was dizzy: Dumbledore, no wonder your sister blew up!

He trembled and picked up the letter in his hand.

"The letters are chronological, from 1920 to 1996......" Hermione couldn't help but remind, "you have to start looking below." ”

Lockhart flipped through the stack of things in his hand, and sure enough, he saw a letter dated 1920, which he opened to read.

Dear Albus,

I'm sorry for saying goodbye all those years ago, and I can't say that you betrayed our agreement.

I don't want to discuss who hit your sister in that mess, and maybe no one did, but it did happen on my impulse and I have nothing to say.

So I ran back to Germany and spent more than ten years in the wizarding world. I've become an important official of the Ministry of Magic, but I've been afraid to contact you for years. I have the courage to write to you this time, and I hope that the grief of losing your sister has passed, and if you want to rejoin the great cause we have agreed upon, you are always welcome.

Last year I met a half-squib named A-Doff Hitter-Le, who was a little younger than me, almost thirty years old but still as passionate as I was, and we agreed to build a more orderly world, with Muggles and wizards.

If you join. I wouldn't mind sharing this world with you.

Hopefully things will go better and better.

Dear to you - Gellert Grindelwald

――

"What seems like a normal letter is a fact that is already clear to the wizarding world, that Dumbledore did not join Grindelwald and Hitter-Le's so-called 'cause' in the future. Lockhart put down the first letter.

"Yes, but who knows what the truth is. Harry said.

Lockhart shook his head and moved on to the next one, which was from 1924.

――

Albus:

Things weren't going well on my side of Germany, and the Ministry of Magic found out about helping A-Dolph seize Muggle power, and even I was warned.

I began to miss you, if only with the help of your wisdom and charisma. Things should go a lot better.

I'm sorry you still turned me down, but anytime you regret it or figure it out and want to join, you're welcome.

I heard you were elected Minister of Magic, but you refused?

I don't understand what you think. I'm fighting for the German position, and I'd love to see you elected Minister of Magic for England, and then you'll be able to take care of it or watch from the sidelines. Either way.

......

"It turns out that Grindelwald had bewitched Headmaster Dumbledore, but he resisted these temptations!" Blake read the letters together. This shows that the book is all nonsense. ”

"Yes, but I don't know which side to trust now. Headmaster Dumbledore's letter may have been to clear his name, but this book can be used to discredit him, and perhaps the real Headmaster is somewhere in between......" Harry said with a sad face, "I always thought Headmaster Dumbledore was a perfect man, but I didn't expect him to have this kind of past. ”

"What's wrong?" Lockhart asked, confused, "Is it the Horcrux by your side, take it out!"

Harry pulled the crown out of his pocket and handed it to Lockhart. Lockhart handed it to Albert: "I think your mental quality is okay, let it be tested by the Horcruxes." ”

"Okay. Albert confidently put the Horcrux in his bag.

"Don't read the book!" Lockhart reached out to Hermione, who obediently closed the book and handed it to him.

Lockhart put the book away and sat back down at the table, speaking to Harry as he continued to read Grindelwald's letter to Dumbledore. "Harry, what determines your opinion of a person?"

"Of course, it depends on what kind of person he is, I like good people, and I hate bad people. ”

"And is Dumbledore a good guy or a bad guy?"

"Good man," said Harry, after a moment's hesitation, "but he shouldn't have kept these things hidden from me, about his sister...... And his relationship with Grindelwald. ”

"But why should he tell you?" asked Lockhart, "everyone has a little secret that no one else can tell, do you think that there should be no reservations between close people?"

"Wouldn't he have cared so much if he had told me. But now it's a stumbling discovery, and it feels very different!"

"It feels different, but not everyone has a boring and secretless childhood like you! Do you dare to say that you don't have any secrets that you don't want to tell others?" Lockhart glanced at Blake: "Siris, this is your godson, you should be educated." ”

"Forget it, I don't even have a child of my own, so you better come!" Blake shook his head and refused.

Lockhart was speechless, speaking as if he had a child.

"Harry, remember the prophecy that a child born at the end of July would be an enemy of the Mystery. And Neville was born at the end of July, so why didn't the mystery man go to him but to you? You must have thought about it, did you tell Neville?" Lockhart asked, staring into his eyes.

"No...... I mean, I didn't tell him. ”

"Did that affect you from becoming friends with him?"

"Nope. ”

"Well, Victor Krum asked me about Ginny at the wedding, and even though you have broken up with her, are you a little jealous? Have you told anyone? Don't say you're not jealous, how many men are here!"

"I don't think there's any need to tell anyone about this, it's just a little bit ......."

"Isn't that enough, even your humble life has things you don't want to tell others, why do you ask Dumbledore to hide nothing from you, even if his sister or Grindelwald has nothing to do with you?"

"It's nothing, I see, I just can't accept that Dumbledore still has that side...... Harry lowered his head, "I always thought he was a complete hero, I really can't imagine a Dumbledore who is mixed with dark wizards and is gay...... He was as old as I am now. We're here risking our lives against the Dark Lord, and he, together with his new close friends, plots to rule the Muggles. ”

"No one is born to be a good man and a hero, and there is more gray between black and white...... Harry, maybe you're too simple, and you'll understand in a few years. Blake also interjected, "I have no interest in Dumbledore's past, I only know that from the time I knew Dumbledore until he died, he did nothing bad to see." ”

"Yes, I'm the same as Sires on this. Lockhart agreed: "There is a saying that 'if you don't stop doing, you become a gentleman', and some people may not want to do good things in their hearts, but they have been doing good things for various reasons, so is he a good person?"

"Good guy, of course!" Hermione quickly replied.

"This world is still very interesting, bad people have done bad things all their lives, and occasionally they have done a good thing, and they will be said that this person is not bad in nature! Good people have done good things all their lives, as long as a little scandal is revealed, people will say that you have pretended to be a whole life! Finally show your fox tail!" Albert said, "I also support Mr. Lockhart's point of view on this point, let's not discuss the past of Headmaster Dumbledore." ”

"Actually, I'm the same, do you think I really want to stay in England and rebel against the mystery man, I have many reasons to leave, the mystery man is not going to hunt me down all over the world, but I chose to stay out of the so-called sense of responsibility and a little emotional reason. Lockhart exclaimed, "I'll be honest with you, the reason why I accepted Dumbledore's invitation to become a professor at Hogwarts was entirely because being a professor of the 'Savior' would make me more famous! Harry, I don't want you to be a superficial person like Albert said, Dumbledore loves you, protects you, teaches you, and I don't want to hear you shout after he's dead, 'He's the man', okay? ”

"I-" Whatever Lockhart tried to indoctrinate him, Harry felt like he would be quickly convinced, was the professor right, or was he too susceptible to external influences and people? ”

"Alright, Siris, you can take a few people outside the tent to practice the battle, I'm going to continue watching something. Lockhart said to Black, and then looked back at the letter in his hand, hoping to find some useful information in the letter to the strongest white wizard from the Dark Lord, who had secretly contributed to the outbreak of World War II.
