Chapter 257: Cockroaches

Thoughts invade the baby's brain.

Dumbledore didn't find anything, his little head was empty, or rather, the baby-like soul had no brain.

There was only a green light, and a miserable cry.

The image played over and over again.

There was no more useful information.

Dumbledore withdrew his wand and waved Flitwick's slightly.

Harry's open face closed, and the Rubik's Cube spun back to its previous appearance.

The last of the magical breath was cut off.

Snape pushed Dumbledore aside and pulled out a few bottles of potions and stuffed them into Harry's mouth, "Drink it now." ”

Harry poured bottle after bottle into his mouth.

The last bottle of bitter gourd-flavored potion was in his mouth, and he burped: "What are these?" ”

"A potion that stabilizes your soul." With a wave of his wand, Snape's vanishing charm wiped out all the bottles - this is the difference between a Potions Master and an ordinary Apothecary, and there is no need to worry about the cost of the glass bottle, "Albus uses dark magic on you. ”

"Don't worry, I'm gentle." Dumbledore returned his wand to Flitwick, "Try not to hurt your soul, and with Snape here, you won't have any problems." ”

Harry nodded his head and reached out to his features, now he had a shaky feeling of his mouth, nose and eyes, and his eyes wandered over the wand in Dumbledore's hand.

Dumbledore unnaturally hid his hands behind him.

"Found what?" Harry spoke cautiously, holding his mouth.

"Your mouth won't fall off, don't do this disgusting stupidity." Snape smacked his head away, and with a wave of his hand, the chair flew in.

Dumbledore also summoned a stool to sit down, and said in a sad tone, "It's bad." ”

"Voldemort's Horcruxes are so deeply connected to you, I thought it was symbiosis, but it turned out to be parasitism, and it took root in your soul."

"But the good news is that it's still a separate individual, with an independent soul."

Harry nodded, "So you can actually get rid of that Horcrux with a Calling Spell?" I just can't save it, peek into its memory."

"I've seen its memories." Dumbledore interrupted.

Harry didn't have any fluctuations in his expression or expression.

Dumbledore continued, "As Voldemort's last Horcrux, it had nothing in it, except the night of the accident, which could have been a require released by itself, or a shadow of the require that was bounced back by Lily's protective magic. ”

"Nothing?" Harry was stunned.

Horcruxes aren't that clean.

Whether it is a diary or a resurrection stone, they show that they are almost a whole person.

"It's easy to explain." Dumbledore withdrew his wand into his robe and pulled out a jar of cockroaches, "The Horcrux on your head was an accident, Voldemort didn't bother to make a superfluous Horcreature on you." ”

"So he didn't have time to divide a qualified soul, and he didn't even know that he had divided a soul."

"That's the only good news."

"It's too weak to give you some of Voldemort's abilities, but it doesn't affect you."

Speaking of this, Dumbledore looked happy, and Snape couldn't help but have a look of palpitation on his face.

No one had thought Harry had a Horcrux on his head.

If this Horcrux had self-awareness, even if it was only a little bit of self-awareness, and even a little bit of thinking, what would have become of Harry now, and even whether Harry Potter would still be alive, was a big question.

This is their failure to do so.

All they can say now is that, but thankfully not like that.

"So what are the other five Horcruxes, where are they, and still no results?" Harry drew the most crucial conclusions from his long tirade.

Dumbledore nodded, "Yes." ”

Harry sighed and put forward his thoughts again: "You said that this Horcrux is still a separate entity, so if you put a curse on it, you can get rid of it directly."

Snape couldn't sit still and interrupted him, "Mr. Potter, you're in fifth year, don't be so naΓ―ve!" ”

"Shut up the troll smell of you!"

He continued to curse, and the white-bearded old man put the jar aside on the table, cleared his throat, and interrupted the cursing.

"I don't think so." Dumbledore shook his head, "A person's soul is too fragile, and the Requisition Curse is too evil and powerful, even just the breath will have a huge impact on the soul. ”

"Only those who can't hurt you can solve the Horcrux by reciting a life-seeking spell to you."

Harry was expressionless: "You mean Tom Riddle." ”

Dumbledore nodded.

"Let me guess what genius idea you have again." Harry clapped his hands and said in a dull tone, "You don't want Voldemort to come back to life, and let him recite a life-threatening spell to me while my mother's spell is still there." ”

"Oh, I'll have to lean my head over and let his life-reeling spell hit my head just enough to hit his own Horcrux."

"Because of the effect of my mother's spell, he can't hurt me."

"But the requisition spell will take effect again, not for me, for himself."

Harry spread his palms out to simulate the sound of fireworks exploding: "Bang, so Tom Riddle killed Tom Riddle." ”

Dumbledore nodded, "Why not?" ”

"You're the smartest man in the world." Harry sneered.

Snape stood up, drew his wand, and pointed it at him, "Albus, don't move, let me examine you, just like you did to Mr. Potter, let's see what's in your head?" ”

"I bet, a hundred Galleons." Flitwick shook his head as well, "Fudge can't even think of such an idea. ”

Sprout's tone was concerned: "Albus, have you been too tired lately, take a good rest for a few days." ”

"It's a safe way to do it." Dumbledore explained patiently.

"Where is it safe to resurrect Voldemort?" Harry shook his head.

Snape gritted his teeth, "Let Harry face the Curse, Albus, why don't you go?" ”

"If my death could make Voldemort die, I think I'd be glad." Dumbledore replied softly, but firmly.

McGonagall shook her head, "Albus, maybe you're right, but I think, I hope, Harry is a little safer, and the wizarding world can't afford to resurrect the mysterious man again." ”

Dumbledore was ready to continue persuading.

Harry spoke, "If I had to bring Voldemort back to life just to get rid of the Horcruxes on my head, I don't think it's necessary. ”

"And, although it is very likely that Voldemort will recite the Curse on me in an attempt to kill me, the boy who escaped from the Avada Command. ”

"But maybe he'll be a little smarter, using Transfiguration Charms, or other spells, or even having a Death Eater stab me with a sword."

"I don't want to get everything shut up in such illusory things."

Dumbledore didn't speak.

"Although the Horcrux will be resurrected, one of the conditions for resurrection, the Horcrux itself must have that cognition?" Harry continued, "If it doesn't realize itself, isn't it a Horcrux forever? ”

Dumbledore nodded, "That's right." ”

"After the other Horcruxes are resolved, let this Horcrux stay in my head, it doesn't know anything anyway." Harry decided, "When I'm alive enough in a few hundred years, let Hermione unleash the Horcrux with a Calling Spell, and I won't have to worry about the effects it will have." ”

"Hundreds of years?" Snape scoffed, "The Potters weren't long-lived people. ”

"At least there will always be Potter." Harry retorted.

Dumbledore waved his hand, "Harry, Severus, don't worry, since I don't want to use that method, I'll try something else." ”

"Harry is right, Horcruxes are hard to resurrect, they need a lot of life force."

At this, he abruptly stopped, and looked at Harry.

"Pets?" The two of them, in unison.

Several of the other deans reacted in hindsight.

Dumbledore frowned, "Perhaps, Hogwarts has a Horcrux hidden in it, and there is also a Death Eater hiding in Hogwarts, who is planning to bring Voldemort back to life, and in order not to attract attention, he will attack those pets." ”

"With Voldemort's methods, he can indeed hide a space."

He looked at Snape.

The young Death Eater shook his head: "No one has contacted me. ”

"Looks like the Death Eater doesn't trust me."

"It doesn't have to be a Death Eater." Dumbledore shook his head, "Just a guess with me Harry." ”

"Looks like we've recently had to relive our school days and explore Hogwarts."

Harry emphasized: "I am a student now. ”

"The map of the living point is very detailed, and the secret passages and secret rooms I know are all on it." Dumbledore whispered, "It's complete, there's no place to hide, Harry."

"I'll ask Gryffindor." Harry nodded, implying that he didn't know if anything was missing from the map of the living spots.

Dumbledore raised his hand and picked up the cockroach jar, "Dear professors, we need to take this matter more seriously, there may be a Horcrux hidden in Hogwarts, ready to be resurrected."

Harry suddenly reached out, pulled out his wand, and with a flick of it, opened the window.

"Cockroaches fly!"

With a thud, several pitch-black creatures flew in through the window, and under Harry's command, they snorted and sank into the jar full of cockroaches.

Click, click, click.

Cockroaches and cockroach sugar are mixed together, and after crawling and folding several times, you can't tell which is sugar and which is a real cockroach.

Dumbledore was stunned, looking at the jar in his hand stupidly.

He swallowed hard.

Dangling to put the jar down, he snapped his fingers ruthlessly, and the jar disappeared completely: "Harry, this is not okay, this is disgusting. ”

"You know it's disgusting." Snape couldn't help but speak.

Harry's face was expressionless: "Professor, I'm just reminding you, maybe, there are real cockroaches in the jar?"
