The world will hear... Sean subconsciously shuts his mouth.
He had clearly asked the wrong question about Grindelwald's age, but Dumbledore said the world would hear...
And Sean also immediately remembered that when the whole world changed, it was when he found out that Grindelwald's age was not right - and Grindelwald himself found this too!
Crucially, Grindelwald himself doesn't seem to know this...
Sean had a lot of thoughts in his heart, and finally he could only look at Dumbledore, hoping that the other party could give him an answer.
"Shaun," Dumbledore began, "you should know about Heloise Mintab?"
Sean nodded, of course he knew about Heloise Mintab, the silent man who went back five centuries.
Dumbledore continued: "I think you should know..." He gestured, pointing to a decorative hourglass in the office.
"Time—" Sean wanted to speak suspiciously, but stopped immediately.
"can not say?"
Dumbledore nodded: "The world is very sensitive now. It's best not to mention this key prop, as well as your teacher."
He picked up the hourglass as he spoke: "When you use the hourglass to go back, normally, you have to stay in the place where you used to be until now. In this case, you usually go back for up to five hours, as long as you don't do anything out of character. , and after five hours, this trip will be a perfect past."
Sean heard the meaning of his words, frowned and said: "Heloise Mintab, she obviously can't survive five centuries. Although in the follow-up examination of the Ministry of Magic, her body has been returned to the present. As old as she has been through five centuries, but she did come back after five days. This means that if you go back to... well, a long time ago, there is a way to come back besides spending time, right?"
Dumbledore nodded: "Yes, magic, with special magic and a little luck, you can come back. However, the traces of time cannot be erased..."
Just when Dumbledore finished saying this, the whole world shook again, as if the sleeping dragon was about to wake up.
However, Dumbledore just smiled helplessly: "Look, it's so sensitive."
"Because... traces that cannot be erased?" Sean asked hesitantly.
"Yes," Dumbledore looked meaningfully into the distance, "the traces cannot be erased."
Sean fell into contemplation. Now, it is obvious that Grindelwald absolutely returned to the past, and looking at the performance of the bowling ball, he did not return to the present after returning to the past...
Perhaps, this is one of the reasons why the world is so sensitive.
Dumbledore seemed to have guessed what Sean was thinking, and he smiled slightly: "The world has been listening to the voices of all people from the soul, but only listening..."
He turned his head to look at Sean: "I know you must have accumulated a lot of doubts now, but I'm sorry, I can't explain it to you..."
After listening to Dumbledore's words, Sean fell silent.
He raised his head slightly and saw the dozen or so Pensieves in front of him and the huge silver flakes floating above.
Huge memory, the kind of memory that takes a dozen Pensieves to decipher - this kind of memory is likely to be a person's entire life.
Sean saw this sentence in the manuscript of the Pensieve maker - this individual erased his own path in the world with his own hands, so as to make the world forget his existence.
Dumbledore has apparently been deciphering these memories... Grindelwald is clearly confused about his situation...
Sean raised his head suddenly and looked at the huge memory in shock.
"This...is this his? Professor?"
Dumbledore didn't speak, but his silence said it all.
Sean turned his head, he licked his dry lips, and asked tentatively, "So, Professor, not only because of some unbreakable vow, but also because of this memory, right?"
Dumbledore remained silent, but the world answered him.
Just when Sean mentioned "this memory", that palpitation flashed by again.
An extremely bold guess appeared in Sean's mind!
However, without waiting for him to think further, Dumbledore said first: "Sean, I know, you have always been very smart - I hesitated for a long time or not, um, let you discover something."
"However, this decision is still up to you to make... Remember what I told you about the prophecy? I told you at the time that the more people you know, the more the prophecy will come true. A kind of wizard - although it is not very modest to say that, a powerful wizard like me is more deeply entangled with the world, so my will and my thoughts will affect whether the prophecy occurs or not to a certain extent."
"And now, with regard to time—" the world shook again, and Dumbledore continued after waiting for a while, "and the same thing."
Sean was stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately.
So, Dumbledore will be so careful, the time disturbance of the world, like the prophecy, will be more affected by the more powerful wizard, and his "voice" is bigger.
Therefore, even if Dumbledore knew the truth, he could not reveal it, because once he revealed it, the world would suddenly hear a huge voice.
And now, Dumbledore is letting me decide...
Because... I have [arrogance] in my body, so, in essence, I also have a huge "voice" in this world. That is, if I followed Dumbledore's lead and found out the truth of the whole thing, the world would be disturbed.
After thinking about it all, Sean looked up at the other party, considered it for a while, and said, "The more truth I see, the greater the movement in the world, right?"
Dumbledore didn't say anything, just a smile of admiration in his eyes.
Sean thought for a while, and said in a deep voice, "You come to me, it proves that maybe only I can do this... Then I want to know, if I find what you want me to find, what will happen? What kind of influence?"
Dumbledore's tone also became serious, he said solemnly: "It will have an impact, but it is within the acceptable range."
"Then what will be the impact if I don't do it?" Sean continued to ask.
Dumbledore shook his head: "I can't give you an accurate answer, maybe it doesn't have any effect, or maybe, the key to the whole thing will fall on you."
"If possible, I don't want to give this matter to you. It's not because I don't trust it, but I think you shouldn't bear too much. This should be the problem that the old men should solve."
Sean raised his eyebrows: "Professor, if you say that, I really don't care."
Dumbledore suddenly laughed: "Sean, you really haven't changed at all..."
Sean glanced at his mouth, the old men like to say something weird.
He moved for a while, and then sighed helplessly: "You shouldn't make that unbreakable oath... Actually, I guessed a little when you said it just now."
"Heloise Mintab, should I go to the Department of Mysteries as my first stop?"
Sean adjusted his collar.
Dumbledore showed a rather amazed look: "Sometimes, I have to marvel at your sharpness, Sean."
"That's because dealing with you requires too many brain cells, so it's a habit, Professor." Sean shrugged.
"You really make me a little ashamed child." Dumbledore looked helpless.
"Then why don't you tell me about your arrangement? You won't let me rush into the Ministry of Magic like this, right?" Sean spread his hands, "After the teacher was elected chairman, the British Ministry of Magic showed some dissatisfaction. The meaning is - the inside is infiltrated by that group of people who are not human or ghosts?"
Dumbledore smiled slightly, neither admitting nor denying it, but said: "All wizards will feel the change in the world just now..."
Sean understood immediately.
The wizards are busy investigating this big move, whether it's the official agency in the open, or the returnees hiding in the shadows.
So, now is the best chance to fish in troubled waters...
However, aware of this change, people from the Ministry of Magic should also go to the Department of Mysteries to check the relevant information, right?
Sean glanced at Dumbledore, who didn't look worried.
He shrugged, and finally decided not to ask any more questions.
Sean took one last look at the huge memory floating above the Pensieve and walked towards the spiral staircase that had returned to normal.
He walked down the stairs and paused, looked back at Dumbledore, and asked, "Professor, are you two really breaking up?"
Dumbledore's eyes flickered for a moment, and finally showed an incomprehensible...smile, probably a smile...
"The traces will tell you the answer."
Sean knew that Dumbledore couldn't say it if he wanted to, and finally he shrugged and left the headmaster's office.
When Sean left, Dumbledore turned his head to look at the memory and sighed inaudibly.
On the wall, a portrait of the principal said, "Albus, as I said earlier, many times you shouldn't just think about doing everything by yourself. This change is an accident."
Dumbledore took off his glasses and wiped them, without showing any frustration or disappointment.
"It's the biggest accident that I can stand here... If it wasn't out of the plan, if I wasn't caught off guard, it wouldn't be an accident..."
The principals looked at each other, and someone sighed and said, "I even thought something big was going to happen today."
Dumbledore smiled and put on his glasses, his wise eyes emanating from the lenses: "His thoughts are very detached...but he always knows the priorities...especially, this is what he did...he doesn't You won't realize it."
"And after that? Even if that kid can find out the truth, can he find a solution?"
Dumbledore said in a deep voice, "I'm so ashamed to let him do these things now... Don't forget, he's only in the third grade."
The third grade made everyone miserable, and finally, Phineas muttered: "It won't be soon..."
...
When Sean walked out of the principal's office and came to the corridor, he immediately looked out the window. It seemed that the night sky that had been suppressed before had returned to normal.
It's just that the castle didn't fall into a deep sleep like before, the lights were bright everywhere, and every little wizard felt something was wrong.
"It's a big trouble..." Sean muttered.
He turned his head and saw a petite figure standing in the shadow of the drapery.
"Are you waiting for me?" Sean said to Stephanie.
The girl nodded and said quickly: "This information may be useful to you... When those abnormalities appeared today, Professor Dumbledore found me immediately. He seemed to know that you and I both have the authority of the Room of Requirement, and then asked Let me take him to meet your request."
"In my sense, Professor Dumbledore didn't seem to have expected it early, and he was in a hurry when he found me. But—" Stephanie pursed her lips, "on the way, he told me that he hoped I don't want to hold grudges against Mr. Grindelwald..."
As soon as he heard the name Grindelwald, Sean looked at the night sky subconsciously. Fortunately, the world did not respond this time.
It looks like Stephanie knows very little about the whole thing, so even mentioning key people won't be heard by the world.
He glanced at the expressionless girl, shrugged and said, "You found out in the first place?"
Stephanie nodded: "I only told him, so..."
Sean sighed, then spread his hands: "I say so, my teacher, he is such a person, he can sacrifice everyone, including himself, for one goal. I don't think he is right, but it's a pity The thing is, he shouldn't change."
"So—" Sean smiled, "don't pay attention to what Professor Dumbledore said, although he may just mention it out of some kind of psychology, but he always ignores one point, his identity causes even casual remarks The words also carry a lot of weight. It's unfair for him to tell you like this and ask you for it. It's up to you to decide whether to hold grudges or not."
After finishing speaking, Sean waved his hand: "I still have something to do, you go back to sleep first, good night."
Then, he disappeared in place.
Looking at the place where Sean disappeared, Stephanie's eyes flickered with an inexplicable expression.
...
"Where's your information? Hurry up!"
"The engagement with the Muggle Prime Minister is ready..."
"Over there, hurry up, hurry up!"
Late at night, the Ministry of Magic, which should have been empty, was noisy and lively like a bazaar.
No one can ignore the huge change this time, and the staff who have already left work have been called back to get off work.
"Department of Mysteries." An indifferent female voice sounded, and the golden fence door opened, but no one wanted to go out.
The clerk in the elevator strangely pressed the close button, thinking that he wanted someone from the maintenance department to come and look at the elevator, but he didn't notice a small black bug walking out.
The worm slipped into a dark corner, and with a very slight sound, a figure suddenly appeared in place.
Trajectory flickering is more useful than I thought... Sean, who changed his appearance, raised his eyebrows, and then disappeared into the air.
