  Chapter 1205 Slughorn's news

  After Dumbledore finished tonight's class, Harry couldn't help asking, "Sir, do you want me to find Voldemort's Horcrux?"

"If necessary, I will take you to find Voldemort's Horcrux, but not now Harry." Dumbledore reached out and pushed gently, closing the cabinet where the Pensieve was placed, "I hope you can learn from these memories Only by knowing Voldemort better will we be able to find ways to deal with him."

   "To be honest, I don't know what Voldemort's weakness is, if it's ugly?" Harry noticed Dumbledore's slightly raised eyebrows, and quickly added, "I was just joking, sir."

   "What do you think is Voldemort's weakness?" Dumbledore asked with a smile.

"Voldemort is very afraid of death, and very arrogant. Oh, by the way, he also likes to collect things, and he seems to be very stubborn. He always wants to kill me with his own hands. If he let the Death Eaters do it, I might die early? "

   "Harry, you actually know Voldemort very well." Dumbledore nodded with satisfaction.

   "But I don't think it's useful to know these things." Harry was a little depressed, and changed the subject, "By the way, sir, how many Horcruxes have you found?"

"There are quite a few, but I'm afraid I'll have to close this matter first. We now need to get some of Professor Slughorn's memories to determine the number of Horcruxes." Dumbledore looked up at Harry, serious Said: "You have to work harder Harry, I'm sure you will succeed."

"I've been trying to use Felicia to try my luck at Professor Slughorn's place, but it didn't go well." Harry was a little depressed when he talked about this matter, and he didn't even succeed in taking Felicia , let Harry realize how difficult this matter is.

"Felix Elixir is indeed a rare and good thing for most people, but you need to know how to use it. As far as I know, Mr. Anderson is very good at using Felicia Elixir." Dumbledore winked at Harry He blinked and said, "Perhaps, you can take the time to talk to him about using Felix Elixir. I remember that Miss Granger has a way to contact him."

   "Albert also knows about Horcruxes, why don't you ask him for help?" Harry asked his doubts again.

   "Mr. Anderson has always been helpful. I found a Horcrux with his help a while ago." Dumbledore said gently.

   "Actually, I think you can rely on Mr. Anderson's divination. Maybe you can quickly find the whereabouts of all the Horcruxes." Harry always thought that Dumbledore and Albert could definitely crush Voldemort with ease.

   "Divination is not omnipotent, Harry." Dumbledore shook his head and said, "In fact, most of the divinations in the Hall of Prophecy have not come true."

   "But Albert's predictions have come true."

   "Harry, you take the prophecy too seriously." Dumbledore sighed softly, and asked back, "Do you want to defeat Voldemort just because you are the so-called savior?"

"Can…"

"If Voldemort hadn't killed your father and forced your mother to die for you, would you have wanted to kill him and avenge your family?" Dumbledore looked at Harry and asked, "Obviously not, yes Bar."

   "So, I have to try to kill Voldemort, all for myself, not because of that **** prophecy." Harry murmured.

   "Must? No, Harry, you have the right to choose your own path and ignore that prophecy!"

   "But Voldemort will continue to hunt me down..."

   "Of course, you can also choose to hide..."

   "I won't hide." Harry shook his head.

"Voldemort's biggest mistake was that he created the most terrible enemy." Dumbledore looked at Harry and said, "He chose you and made you his sworn enemy. If he doesn't believe in prophecies, Professor Trelawney's The prophecy will obviously not be fulfilled."

   "Maybe, I should give up the title of savior to Albert." Harry laughed at himself. "To be honest, I always think he is more like a savior than me."

"I don't think Mr. Anderson would want such a title. He actually hates trouble." Dumbledore reached out and patted Harry on the shoulder and said, "Remember Harry, you never fight alone. You have a lot of people behind you supporting you."

  After returning to the common room, Harry didn't see Hermione, but only saw Ron entangled with Lavender in the corner.

  After greeting his roommate, Harry asked directly, "Neville, have you seen Hermione?"

"Hermione seems to have gone to discuss the wizarding card game with Luna." Neville seemed to have thought of something, and asked, "Harry, I heard Hermione say that the DA party will not be held until after the Christmas holiday. Is it true? ?”

   "It's true, I'm sorry Neville, I've been too busy recently." Harry said rather helplessly, "I really don't have much time to spare. The Quidditch team also needs to train to stay in shape."

   "It's okay Harry, I just want to ask Cedric if I can join the Defense Association."

   "You want to join the Defense Association?" Harry was a little surprised, "I remember that you have the same birthday as me, so you shouldn't be an adult, and you have to stay in school next year?"

   "That's right, but the wizarding war is definitely not over so soon, I still hope to be able to help." Neville whispered, "Although I also know that I am useless."

   "I don't think they will reject you." Harry reassured.

  While talking, Harry saw Hermione returning to the lounge with Ginny, hurriedly ended the conversation with Neville, and walked towards them quickly.

   "Hi Harry." Ginny greeted Harry with a smile, seeming to be in a good mood.

   "Hermione, I want to talk to you." Harry said directly.

"Oh fine."

  Hermione looked at Harry suspiciously, and under Ginny's curious gaze, she left the noisy common room with Harry.

   "What is it, Harry?"

  Hermione followed Harry into an empty classroom and asked after casting a spell.

"I need news from Professor Slughorn. As you know, Dumbledore has given me a special task. I don't think it will be possible to use ordinary methods." Harry said in a low voice, "I may need some special tasks." You know, that task is very important, and I don’t think it should take too long, but recently it happened to be…”

   "Who's where?"

   "What!" Hermione looked stunned.

   "Come out, quickly appear."

  Harry suddenly raised his wand, pointed it outside the classroom, and used a spell to force the opponent to appear.

   "Sorry Harry, I..."

   "You shouldn't have followed." Harry stared at Ginny with some dissatisfaction, "How much have you heard?"

   "Not much, you discovered me when I first arrived." Ginny looked at Hermione with a complicated expression, "If you want news about Professor Slughorn, I can help you too."

   "Okay Harry," said Hermione, "you didn't say much anyway."

"Albert is right, I was too careless." Harry looked at Ginny, sighed helplessly and reminded, "Don't do that to Ginny, knowing too much is not good for you, not only You will kill yourself, and you will kill those around you."

   "Really?" Ginny's eyes widened, obviously in disbelief.

"Really, hearing these secrets, I'm afraid you'll have to stay at the headquarters of the Order of the Phoenix until the war is over before you can leave." Harry looked at Ginny and said seriously, "I really don't want to involve you, Voldemort won't take it lightly." If anyone who knows the secret is spared, he will silence them all."

   "Sorry Harry." Ginny apologized hastily.

   "Okay, Harry, don't scare Ginny." Hermione tried to ease the atmosphere, and changed the topic, "If you want to get information from Professor Slughorn, I suggest you let him relax his vigilance first."

   "If you want to get news from Professor Slughorn, I suggest you get him drunk, maybe the probability of success will be higher." Ginny suggested.

   "Drunk?"

  Harry pondered the feasibility of this plan.

   "It is indeed easier to get news when you are drunk, and you have the Felicity Elixir, but the problem is that it is not easy. Professor Slughorn must have taken precautions." Hermione also began to help Harry think about whether the plan was feasible.

   "Professor Slughorn plans to hold a Yule Ball soon."

   "No, those news are very important, and no one else should know." Harry immediately shook his head and vetoed, "It is absolutely important not to let others know."

   But he took out his notebook and jotted down the idea Ginny offered.

"However, getting drunk may be feasible, but..." Harry turned his head and asked Hermione: "Do you know of any potions that can make people drunk? And I need to communicate with Professor Slughorn alone, and let the other party be willing to take the initiative To reveal the news, but it is not easy, because of the last relationship, Professor Slughorn began to be a little defensive towards me."

   "Maybe, you need to get into other topics." Ginny suggested.

"Potions, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, and it will easily arouse Professor Slughorn's guard." Harry shook his head and vetoed, "We must talk about some topics that are related to me and are not easy to arouse Professor Slughorn's vigilance. By the way Find something else to talk about, Professor Slughorn must let her guard down and drink a lot of alcohol off guard before she realizes we're trying to get him drunk."

   There is no doubt that this matter is very difficult.

   "Do you have intelligence enhancers?" Harry turned to look at Hermione.

   "I have it here!"

  Ginny took out a bottle of potion from her robe pocket and handed it to Harry: "Fred and George secretly slipped it to me last time, saying that using this review content can greatly improve efficiency."

"Thanks."

  Harry poured himself one, swallowed it and began to run his mind wildly, he felt that he would soon come up with a solution.

   Vaguely, Harry felt as if he had touched something, but he still couldn't think of it. In the end, Harry gritted his teeth, took out the precious Felicia elixir from the shapeshifting lizard skin bag Hagrid gave him, and took a small one for himself.

  In an instant, Harry felt that his thoughts became extremely clear, and he even thought of a way to deal with Professor Slughorn.

"My mother has a good relationship with Professor Slughorn." After Harry quickly wrote this down, he turned to Hermione and Ginny and asked, "Who of you knew that Professor Slughorn liked What kind of wine, when is his birthday, what kind of food does he usually like, then I can often go to him to ask about my mother, and ask for a few photos by the way, after all, he has always wanted to collect me, and he will definitely not refuse to show kindness. "

"I remember Professor Slughorn mentioned it when he showed us the birthday gift Albert gave him," Ginny also threw a intelligence enhancer into her mouth, "A very delicate dragon badge, like yes…"

  The two said in unison: "April 28."

   "Thank you, Hermione, and Ginny." Harry stuffed the notebook into his pocket, quickly gave Hermione and Ginny a big hug, and walked outside quickly.

   "Harry, where are you going?" Hermione asked suspiciously.

   "I think we should go to Professor Slughorn while we still have some time to pave the way for the future."

   "Is Harry really alright?" Ginny asked Hermione in a low voice, looking at Harry's leaving back with flushed cheeks.

   "It should be fine." Hermione glanced at Ginny and said, "However, there are some things you'd better not say outside."

   "I'm not a fool like Romilda Vane," Ginny muttered. "By the way, Hermione, have you ever used Felicia?"

   "No, what's wrong?"

   "The effect of Felicia seems to be very good." Ginny was eager to get a small dose of Felicia.

  She felt that if she could really obtain Felicia, her relationship with Harry might be able to come true.

"Albert gave it to me last time." Hermione seemed to see through Ginny's thoughts, and took out a medicine bottle from her pocket and said to Ginny, "Maybe, you can try Lavender sometime." way."
