Chapter 505: Are Really Two Distinguished Guests

Chapter 505: Are Really Two Distinguished Guests

Before receiving that letter, McGonagall was going through her usual routine.

She had finished her afternoon third-year Transfiguration class, listened to Filch whine about what school rules the two Weasley twins had broken most again, and finally just as she was about to head to the great hall for dinner, near the entrance hall on the ground floor, she had received the letter that had arrived right from the Hogsmeade Owl Post Office.

The letter was brief, it simply stated that a student who had graduated from Hogwarts a long time ago wanted to visit her alma mater as well as meet her former professors and that she was now in front of the gates of the campus.

At this, McGonagall didn't think much of it.

Countless wizards had graduated from Hogwarts in Britain, and every year, there would inevitably be some people who wanted to return to this castle to reminisce about the time when they had studied and lived here in the past, so after receiving the letter, as a matter of course, McGonagall turned around from the entrance hall and walked towards the outside of the castle.

Then, through the school gate, she saw that familiar yet unfamiliar face!

The first thing that came to her mind was the person who had been dead for more than ten years, but the entire wizarding world knew that no one in that family had survived at all except for Harry, not to mention the fact that McGonagall had even seen Lily's body with her own eyes in the first place.

So, she regained her senses the next second she froze and continued to stare at that face of Lily's, wondering if she was mistaken and if it was just two people who looked alike.

"You are?"

Lily replied softly as she looked at McGonagall, who looked younger compared to her other world self, her face had fewer wrinkles and was no longer haggard.

"Professor, don't you recognise me?"

Being asked this rhetorical question by her, McGonagall relapsed into a frowning silence, and she looked back at Lily, her eyes had taken on a stern and distant look.

"This lady, please don't make fun of the dead, especially since she was also a great witch, and her son is even still living in this castle!"

Lily looked like she had already guessed that there might be a situation like this, and she had already prepared for it, taking a deep breath and looking into McGonagall's eyes, she said sincerely.

"Remember the sixth year? Professor, I was in a daze at that time, and it was you who found me in the girls' lavatory that evening, cheered me up and told me some truths, and it was only later that I was able to come out of that time."

This was obviously the secret that was only known between the two of them, Lily and McGonagall, and after hearing this, McGonagall's eyes instantly became shocked and incredulous!

No memories could ever be hidden forever in the magical world, no matter if it was a Legilimency or a Truth Potion, the memories could be snatched out without the person's knowledge, but everyone knew that Lily Potter had been dead for fifteen years already!

The world had never heard of magic that could extract memories from a dead person's mind.

McGonagall warned solemnly, and then led the way, while deliberately avoiding the direction of the great hall, where Harry was having his dinner at the moment.

Soon they arrived at the door of the Headmaster's office, something that was somewhat unexpected for McGonagall; both Lily and Jon were acting perfectly normal from start to finish, not looking like they were going to run away halfway through the process or take the opportunity to do something to the castle.

This made her heart shake a little more.

No one in this world would dare to pretend to be Lily in such a blatant manner and provoke Dumbledore, even Voldemort wouldn't necessarily dare to come directly to Hogwarts and confront Dumbledore face-to-face, so. This Lily could really be real?

Finally, McGonagall gave Lily another complicated look, while Lily just met her gaze calmly.

There was a knock on the door to the Headmaster's office, and the next second, the calm voice that was all too familiar to all three people present came from inside.

"Come in."

McGonagall pushed the door open and Lily and Jon followed her in.

After they entered, they saw the old man who was sitting in front of his desk, wiping his crescent-shaped glasses with a handkerchief.

Seeing a living, breathing Dumbledore once again, Lily finally couldn't resist her eyes reddening a little, and Jon couldn't help but feel his nose turn a little sour.

"Dumbledore, I brought over a student who claims to have graduated from the school a long time ago."

Listening to McGonagall's words, Dumbledore put on his own glasses as well, and then his blue eyes gazed upon Lily and Jon.

He looked a little surprised, and thoughtful and puzzled.

"And truly two distinguished guests."
