In the Harry Potter Without Harry Potter - Chapter 518: Draco in Action

Neither Jon nor Dumbledore is really worried about how to find the golden cup.

The situation is already clear. Since Voldemort has organised a large-scale escape from Azkaban and gathered his own men, it means that he will never lie low anymore, and he must have bigger plans for the future.

In other words, he was already making his moves, otherwise, the two Death Eaters would not have turned up at the Gaunt’s old house.

At that moment, another owl flew into the Headmaster’s office and dropped a letter in front of Dumbledore.

Dumbledore’s expression became visibly serious when he saw the unique wax used in this envelope.

He opened the envelope and took out the short letter.

“Sirius also met two Death Eaters and a house-elf at the entrance to the cave where Voldemort once hid the locket.”

“He fought them, but just as he was entangled, there were more Death Eaters.”

“The Dead Eaters charged at him, forcing him to flee first.”

Now some things can be confirmed.

Jon said.

“He wants all his Horcruxes back now!”

Lily said suddenly.

“Since he sent people to Gaunt’s old house and to the cave where the locket is hidden, will he also send people to get the diadem that was supposed to be hidden in the castle?” Her words reminded

Jon and Dumbledore, or at the same time, the three of them wanted to go there together!

***

“That idiot Potter hasn’t shown his face for two days, he must be up to something again, should we follow him secretly?”

Goyle proposed a bad idea in a muffled voice.

It’s partly because of how boring it is at this time of year. The peaceful campus life may be comfortable, but it also makes people panic and always want to do something.

In the past, Draco would never have refused Goyle’s proposal, but for some reason, he has been absent-minded and full of thoughts for the past two days.

“Forget it, let Potter do what he wants, it has nothing to do with us. Go and have your dinner, I feel a bit queasy, so I will go back alone.” After he finished speaking, he did not continue to be with Goyle and Crabbe.

After a moment, he turned his head and walked towards the Slytherin common room, leaving Goyle and Crabbe behind.

As soon as Draco was out of Goyle and Crabbe’s sight, he changed direction and headed up the stairs to the seventh floor instead of heading for the underground Slytherin common room.

He seemed to have been here more than once and went straight to the tapestry where the Trolls were beating up Barnabas with a club.

It was dinner time, and this place on the seventh floor was also far from the tower where the Gryffindor and Ravenclaw common rooms were situated, so there was no one around.

But Draco was still very nervous, he looked left and right like a cowardly thief, came to the open space opposite the tapestry, faced the blank wall and began to walk back and forth.

Soon, a door appeared in front of Draco, and he hurriedly opened it, entering the room that was responding to his wishes.

And this scene was watched by a house elf hiding in the dark.

After Draco entered the Room of Requirement, the house-elf, who had just been assigned to the task, suddenly appeared in the Headmaster’s office.

Jon and the others hadn’t left yet.

Dobby was very excited.

“Mr Dumbledore! As soon as I received your order, I went to the other side of the tapestry and saw a bad boy, just as you said, he had opened the door!”

Dumbledore, Jon and Lily were debating how to deal with the Horcruxes they had found before at that moment.

It had been less than half a day since they thought that Voldemort might also send someone to Hogwarts to find the Diadem, and after taking a quick look there, they called Dobby, who was already working at Hogwarts Castle, to guard the entrance to the Room of Requirement. Now, an hour later, a discovery has been made!

“Do you know who it is?” Dumbledore asked, clasping his hands.

Dobby certainly didn’t hesitate to say the name of his former young lord.

“It’s Draco Malfoy!”

After hearing this name, Jon and the others didn’t have many unexpected emotions. There were only a few people at Hogwarts who could be influenced indirectly by Voldemort.

However, neither Dumbledore nor Jon had any intention of catching Draco, who was currently in the Room of Requirement. Anyway, the diadem was no longer there, and now it was time for Draco to hand it over. Providing them with more help.

“It is enough to know who is helping Voldemort in the castle. As for these Horcruxes, we should all be on the same page.”

Dumbledore said in a deep voice.

Jon nodded too.

“There is only the Golden Cup left, and we already know that Voldemort’s spirit in the Golden Cup is causing trouble, so there is no point in leaving these Horcruxes around any longer, and no one can be sure if something will happen in between, so destroying them now is the safest thing to do.”

All the Horcruxes found in the end were handed over to Jon, and of course, he had a way of destroying them all, whether it was Fiendfyre Curse or the Basilisk’s fangs which he still carried in his pocket.

There was a moment of silence at the end of the topic, but Dumbledore coughed twice and continued to speak.

“I know there are some things I shouldn’t bring up, but Severus has been Professor and Head of a House here for more than ten years, and there are still some things he has to help me with, so how do you want to deal with him?”

Of course, he asked Lily that question, and after hearing that, Jon’s expression immediately became like that of water in a well, and he picked up the black tea as if there were no waves in the ancient well, but the corner of his eyes kept looking at Snape, who was still lying on the ground.

After hearing Dumbledore’s words, Lily did not show any abnormal expression, she just said calmly.

“I have put an end to the hatred between me and him. Now, in this world, we are just two ordinary people who have nothing to do with each other. The person who really hates him is Harry. How to deal with him depends on when Harry grows up. A choice that can be made after knowing the truth of everything.”

“So what should we do about this situation?”

Lily gave a solution.

“Professor, please erase and edit his memory of seeing me today. Only the memory of Lily being dead is the best possible result for him.”
