Chapter 537 The Day of Breaking: Dumbledore’s Worries

Hermione and Wednesday went out early, but took a detour due to unclear goals.

When they discovered that many people were gathering in the Forbidden Forest and rushing towards them, a four-legged monster appeared out of thin air in front of them!

"Ah~ what is this?"

The two of them were about to scream, but they recognized the suitcase opposite and gathered around it curiously.

A line of magic words appeared on the lid of the box. It disappeared in a blink of an eye, but the message was imprinted in the hearts of the two of them.

This was Dumbledore's specialty, and he had used it on many people back then.

Stuff a small note and burn it after reading it. As long as the person involved doesn't say anything, no one else will know anything.

That line of writing made the two girls rush to the Shrieking Shack with the suitcase and watch it until Rhine arrived.

Why do you need help?

Because this box is not that smart, it cannot avoid the whipping of the Whomping Willow.

When Hermione was reacting, a force suddenly appeared in the air beside her and rubbed her still furry head.

"Little brat~"

Rhine's voice reached their ears, which not only made them instantly relieved, but also made Hermione pout again.

Little Hermione can't listen to this now!

Rhine didn't have time to take care of Hermione's emotions, and he didn't take care of her when he could. He quickly returned to the castle, climbed upstairs, found a toilet and got in.

By the time Dumbledore summoned all the faculty and staff, he had wiped away all traces of the Forbidden Forest and appeared in front of everyone in a sickly state.

"Your illness...can't Madam Pomfrey do anything about it?"

Dumbledore looked at Rhine for a long time and couldn't see any problems, so he asked about the problem with concern.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

Rhine broke out into a series of coughs and looked at the blushing Madam Pomfrey resentfully.

That look is very obvious...

He expressed doubts about the skills of the Iron Lady, who was obviously unable to do anything and also questioned his own abilities.

If she knew the truth, she would most likely jump up and be kicked to death by Rhine.

If a person seriously pretends to be ill in the Muggle world, doctors are often unable to do anything, let alone the help of the Weasley brothers who have successfully developed quick-acting skipping candy and developed many derivative products.

Dumbledore summoned everyone. One of them needed manpower to search the school to find out where Mr. Crouch had gone.

He would not doubt Harry's words like others...such as Snape...but instead took them quite seriously.

The other is to see if anyone has any abnormalities, so as not to overlook any details.

Unfortunately, Rhine came prepared and Little Barty was not here. Old Boss Deng missed the final opportunity to control Mr. Crouch.

"According to the arrangement, let's go and do our own thing!"

After Dumbledore finished explaining, he waved his hands to everyone.

McGonagall, Snape, and Flitwick all looked at Dumbledore strangely. They felt an obvious dejection from Dumbledore.

These emotions are difficult to detect in the eyes of ordinary people, but in their eyes they shine like sparks in the dark night.

"Albus..."

Professor McGonagall couldn't hold back and tried to ask.

Dumbledore waved his hand, indicating that he was fine, and asked everyone to go do their own thing.

After everyone left, Dumbledore sat down on his chair and fell into silence and thought.

"They saw it."

Grindelwald steps out of the shadows.

"It's not like you."

"It's okay, they won't be affected."

Dumbledore rubbed his head tiredly and turned to Grindelwald to ask.

"I don't know why, but I always have a feeling recently..."

"There's something going on, but I don't know anything about it."

His tone was light, but his expression was solemn.

If there is something that even he can't see through in this tiny acre of land in the British magic world, it will be difficult for anyone else to see through it.

Isn't it scary?

terrible!

If Dumbledore said this, the Ministry of Magic would definitely become more chaotic.

"Did you see anything?"

Dumbledore appeals to Grindelwald for help.

You know, Grindelwald's prophet-like ability is more useful than Trelawney's occasional convulsions.

"I saw a lot of footage, but I didn't see any signs of large-scale action."

Compared with Trelawney's complete prophecies at the script level, Grindelwald's prophets are fragmented and require his powerful thinking to gather and analyze them.

That's right, Gellert Grindelwald is the number one statistic in the wizarding world!

He said he couldn't see it, so maybe he was just worried, and Dumbledore felt relieved a little.

It's a pity that Dumbledore didn't know that Grindelwald was a part of what was happening, and he was not honest with Dumbledore.

"Don't blame me, Albus..."

Grindelwald muttered to himself.

"This is for..."

"The greater good!"

……

In order to prevent accidents, the faculty and staff chose to work in pairs and started the search in pairs.

Rhine and his acquaintances, who disliked both dogs and dogs, stayed away from Snape. They naturally became a couple and walked toward the Whomping Willow.

"Keep an eye on me?"

Rhine said to Snape.

"So it was indeed you who did it."

Snape looked at Rhine with disdain and expressed his disdain for Dumbledore.

What kind of boss can't even tell there's a mole around him?

Of course, he himself is half...

Maybe only one third.

Snape, the triple agent, could express his contempt for all bosses without fear of being targeted. He was so arrogant!

"I didn't do the attack, but I hid the person."

Rhine did not hide it from Snape, but confessed it honestly.

When dealing with this arrogant person, it's best not to hide too much, otherwise it will be difficult for him to trust you.

"I am of use to this man. I don't care if he is dead."

"Yes...Is Potter in danger?"

Snape didn't care about Rhine's purpose of hiding Crouch, he only cared about the attacker's purpose.

"You can pay attention to protecting Harry. There should be no problem for the time being."

"..."

Snape's face darkened.

"Why should I protect him!"

You won’t have a wife in your next life!

Rhine silently made an international friendly gesture to Snape, used his wand to stop the Whomping Willow from moving, and bent down to get into the tree hole below.

Snape's face twitched, but he still stood there calmly, mentally calculating the potion formula he had recently studied.

Since Rhine didn't drag him down, he didn't bother to participate in those complicated calculations.

No matter which path he chooses, as long as it is the one that can avenge Lily in the end...

That's great.

Under the Whomping Willow, Rhine quickly arrived at the Shrieking Shack and opened his suitcase.

"Come up."

He said to the following with a cold face.

no response.

Rhine was stunned for a moment and then emphasized his tone again.

"Mr. Crouch, come up!"

Still no response.

Rhine stayed for a while, then suddenly called out tentatively.

"Medusa?"

"rooooooooo~~~pia!"

A column of black smoke was thrown out of the box, spinning and hitting Rhine.

Rhine checked and found that there was no serious injury, but there was a little more saliva on his body.

"Don't blame me, man."

While speaking to the confused Crouch, Rhine received Medusa's message from the soul connection.

"Who allowed your precious son to give you an extra layer of control?"

"Attack the basilisk..."

"I admire your courage."
