Starting Over at Hogwarts - Chapter 253
On request.
It’s a name that belongs entirely to Hogwarts.
Dumbledore’s eyes flickered, and he instantly understood what it meant, which must be referring to the Room of Requirement on the eighth floor of Hogwarts Castle.
Just when Dumbledore was about to rush over to see the Mirror of Erised, the phoenix on Grindelwald’s shoulder suddenly opened his mouth and spewed out a flame, drowning the mirror into a sea of fire!
This magic mirror is extremely vulnerable under the attack of the Phoenix!
This scene happened so suddenly that even Grindelwald couldn’t stop it, or he couldn’t stop it!
What the **** is this phoenix doing?
Grindelwald could only turn his head helplessly, with a little apology and consternation on his face: “Phoenix… can you also see anything from the mirror of Erised?”
“Um…”
Dumbledore’s expression was subtle.
When the old man saw that the Mirror of Erised was destroyed, it was inevitable that he had some doubts. Maybe the clue was not left by Snape, but Grindelwald, who wanted to deliberately guide him to the Room of Requirement?
never mind.
Now it’s just a matter of going to the Room of Requirement.
Eighth floor of Hogwarts. .
Voldemort opened the door to the Room of Requirement.
The Dark Lord was very proud that he knew the information about this mysterious house, and said with a hoarse smile: “Come on, look at the secrets here… I once left a secret passage leading to Knockturn Alley here, but No one knows what it really looks like, it will use the channel to send everything inside to the other side…”
Following Voldemort’s call, a cabinet appeared in the Room of Requirement, which looked very ordinary, nothing special at all.
Snape’s eyes flickered, as if he was not surprised by the appearance of this cabinet, but he still softly echoed: “I seem to have seen it somewhere…”
“Borgin Bock Shop.”
The smile on Voldemort’s mouth was very proud, and he snorted softly: “I left the same vanishing cabinet in that store. After I became the Dark Lord, Mr. Borgin kept all the things I left behind…”
Birkin Bock store.
This is a magic shop in Knockturn Alley, London.
The entire magical world knows that Diagon Alley is all about serious business; and the counterpart to Diagon Alley is naturally some who do not do serious business.
The Borgin Bock store is a store that specializes in the sale and purchase of black magic items. That store used to be the place where Voldemort worked after graduation…
When Voldemort graduated that year, after his application for graduation to stay in school to teach was rejected, he had to go out to find a job by himself, so he went to that store to work as a clerk.
I have to say, the work there is very useful, Voldemort has received a lot of strange black magic items there, and also secretly learned a lot of evil curse methods…
same.
Mr. Borkin, the owner of the Borkin Bock shop, is a wizard who likes to collect dark magic items. Maybe he didn’t expect his clerk to become the Dark Lord…
However, when Voldemort became the Dark Lord, the dark magic items he made or left in that shop immediately had a very high value, and Mr. Borgin naturally would not throw away the things left by the Dark Lord.
in.
Including a strange cabinet.
In fact, they are a set of vanishing cabinets in pairs.
There is a cabinet in the House of Requirement at Hogwarts, and there is another cabinet in the Borgin Bock store. There is a direct connection channel between the two cabinets, which can be directly connected to each other regardless of any defensive enchantment.
Now.
The Vanishing Cabinet in front of him became an important tool for Voldemort to quietly leave Hogwarts. He didn’t need to alert Dumbledore to leave from here.
Voldemort opened the cupboard door and walked slowly into the cupboard. He looked at Snape who was standing outside the cupboard: “Severus, I’ll be waiting for you in Boginbok.”
“I’ll be there soon.”
Snape lowered his head seriously.
Voldemort nodded in satisfaction and closed the cabinet door calmly.
After a while, when Snape reopened the cabinet door, Voldemort inside had disappeared without a trace, apparently he had left through the passage of the disappearing cabinet.
However, Snape did not leave directly.
After this Snape glanced at the Vanishing Cabinet, he glanced at the Room of Requirement again, and suddenly raised his finger!
A fiery red flame floated at his fingertips!
This is a fire spell.
This spellcaster can make this flame unbelievably powerful, enough to make those who step into this house suffer a big loss!
“Burning fire!”
Snape stretched out his fingers and let the flames from his fingertips fall to the ground before he walked into the vanishing cabinet without changing his face.
“Headmaster Dumbledore…”
“Hopefully you’ll recall the dangers of the second-generation Dark Lord…”
Snape’s eyes lit up slightly. When he entered the vanishing cabinet and left, the flame slowly fell to the ground!
The moment the flames landed, a violent explosion suddenly erupted, and the endless flames quickly began to burn wildly in the room of responsiveness!
In fact.
Someone’s fire spell is quite powerful.
When Dumbledore and Grindelwald arrived, they hurriedly opened the door of the Room of Requirement, and a mass of flames rushed out, and the scorching fire rushed out in the blink of an eye!
“careful!”
Grindelwald raised his wand, and a group of magical armor spells quickly formed, blocking the invasion of the flames in the house of responsiveness!
“Tom…”
Dumbledore narrowed his eyes, looking at the scorching flames in the Room of Requirement, he suddenly raised his elder wand!
The most powerful wand in the world!
The Elder Wand drew magic in Dumbledore’s hands, quickly bringing together the scorching flames of the Room of Requirement!
All flames…
All gathered into a small group of flames!
Dumbledore looked at the tiny flame on the tip of the Elder Wand, his face almost dripping with ugliness: “Tom… got stronger…”
This is not a fiery spell.
Just the most common fire spell.
However, it is this ordinary flame spell, with the power it erupts here, that is enough to break through the Room of Requirement and bring big trouble to the entire Hogwarts!
“Maybe it’s just a matter of time?”
Grindelwald found a rather reluctant reason. He looked at the room that was burned to black and dilapidated: “Now I can’t find any traces of him…”
Obviously.
There is no trace of Voldemort left here.
The only thing left here is the flame that only Voldemort could use.
Dumbledore took a deep breath, glanced at the empty and charred Room of Requirement, and whispered his request.
“Clean up.”
The whole room became clean again.
Dumbledore squeezed his wand and thought for a moment. Voldemort came to the Room of Requirement, it must be because there is a passage to the outside world!
here…
Let Voldemort leave without disturbing anyone!
Dumbledore looked at the empty house, and calmly opened his mouth to make his request to the Room of Requirement: “I want to leave Hogwarts.”
Just like its name.
The House of Requirement can fulfill any wish it can give.
As Dumbledore’s voice fell, a dilapidated cabinet suddenly appeared in this room, with black marks burned by flames…
In addition to this cabinet, there was also a portrait, which turned out to be the appearance of Dumbledore’s sister Ariana!
House of Requirement…
It even gave two passages to leave Hogwarts!
The secret passage hidden in this portrait seems to lead to a place that both Dumbledore and Grindelwald are very clear about, and it must lead to the Pig’s Head Bar.
after all…
No one but them would pay attention to Ariana Dumbledore.
that cabinet…
Apparently it was used by Voldemort.
It’s a pity that the cabinet seems to have been destroyed.
“It was burnt out.”
After checking for a few seconds, Grindelwald immediately gave his answer: “But it can be repaired, it shouldn’t be a big problem…”
“…”
Dumbledore nodded slowly.
Maybe it will be difficult for them to catch up with Voldemort tonight, because this time to repair the cabinet is enough for Voldemort to find a place to hide.
Of course.
It was impossible for Dumbledore to give up and continue the hunt.
Even Dumbledore still thought that talking was better than nothing. Even if he couldn’t find Voldemort, he could find out where the passageway connected to this cabinet was… Perhaps the other end of the passageway in this cabinet was Voldemort’s trusted subordinates.
the other side.
Birkin Bock store.
The shop was still open when Voldemort showed up.
For a shop that sells and buys dark magic items, night is their favorite time of business, because many dark wizards believe that night is enough to cover sin.
Mr. Bo Jin, the owner of Bo Jin Bock shop, stood by the counter, holding a magnifying glass with a smile, playing with the black magic item he had just received.
to be frank.
His business has been good recently.
Because the Ministry of Magic has been tracking black magic items, many wizarding families have to frequently sell him some increasingly important black magic items in order to avoid trouble.
Squeak.
A cabinet door placed in the store suddenly opened.
When Mr. Borgin raised his head in surprise, he saw a terrifying and terrifying man walking out with no hair and a bare head!
This guy looks familiar…
This made Mr. Borgin froze involuntarily!
Mr. Borgin looked at him and remembered those dark years almost instantly, because this face appeared many times in the Daily Prophet, and even appeared in the nightmares of many wizards!
Voldemort!
How could it be Voldemort!
“Good evening, Mr. Borgin.”
Voldemort looked at his former boss, greeted him with a grin and even bowed gracefully in a wizard’s manner.
“How could you…”
Mr. Borgin looked at Voldemort in disbelief.
The entire wizarding world knows that Voldemort is dead a long time ago, and many people think that Voldemort will be resurrected sooner or later, but Mr. Borgin never thought that he would see him!
to be frank.
Mr. Borgin had been avoiding contact with Voldemort.
People in Knockturn Alley are not a good thing…
A wizard who sells black magic items is mostly not for fun, but for huge profits beyond imagination. Mr. Borgin’s character is extremely greedy and sinister.
This boss had been with Voldemort in his youth for a while, but he actually had some vanity to Voldemort once being his own shop clerk. A Dark Lord once worked in his shop. What an honor!
to this end…
Many wizards would respectfully call him Mr. Borgin.
However, in fact, Mr. Borgin is very clear that Voldemort is a very free and powerful wizard in the Borkinbok shop, and he just wants to use the Boginbok shop to communicate and learn with those dark wizards…
At that time, Mr. Borgin knew what kind of person Voldemort was, the one who embraced darkness and evil more than any dark wizard…
therefore…
Mr. Borgin also feared Voldemort more than anyone.
Although Voldemort looks polite now, Mr. Borgin knows the horror of this man. This is a Dark Lord who will not play by the rules and may kill at any time!
“It seems that Mr. Borgin has received a lot of good things…”
Voldemort grinned, walked slowly to the counter, reached out and picked up a few magic items on it, and even flipped through a book of dark magic.
“This is…”
Mr. Borgin was a little afraid to look up at him.
“Don’t introduce me.”
Voldemort waved his hand to signal him not to speak, he looked down at the magic items, the smile on the corner of his mouth became more and more intense, and he said in a hoarse voice: “Many of the things here are small toys that I made, and I gave some of them to me. subordinate…”
The items on the counter, or the knowledge of magic, he had long since cared, and the only thing that made Voldemort angry was that these things appeared here, representing the betrayal of some Death Eaters.
“You have a good harvest. I really didn’t expect them to sell all these things to you. It seems that many people are eager to get rid of me…”
“…”
Mr. Bogin’s heart was startled.
A bad feeling suddenly came to my mind!
Even though Voldemort is still smiling~www.mtlnovel.com~ Mr. Borgin can feel the suppressed anger under Voldemort’s smile, who can allow his subordinates to betray!
Just as the owner of the black magic shop was about to turn around and run to the back door, Voldemort suddenly raised his wand, and a green light flashed across the shop!
“Avada Kedavra!”
As Voldemort’s wand gleamed with the death curse, the shopkeeper, who was respected by the dark wizards, fell to the ground, as if he had been silent.
When Voldemort killed him, the cabinet door in this store reopened, and Snape walked out slowly. He looked at Voldemort who was still flipping a book by the counter, and a man who died on the ground…
This…
what’s the situation?
The shop owner lying on the ground, and Voldemort who is guarding a pile of magic items and flipping books by the counter, how can it make it look a bit like Voldemort is robbing and killing?
