Chapter 722： Task

"that's it?"

Harry, who returned to the headmaster's office, asked blankly, and Ron and Fish had similar expressions.

Dumbledore had said before that this was the most important memory he had ever acquired, but they couldn't see how important this memory was.

Especially Fish, let alone a fight in this memory, and even the conversation is something that he is completely uninterested in. Mao Mao felt that he was deceived by the bad old man again, so he stared at Dumbledore unhappily.

(?ω?)

Of course, the sudden white fog and the reactions of the people after the white fog were indeed very strange, but other than that, nothing seemed to happen, except that Riddle asked Professor Slughorn about the Horcrux. , but he didn't get an answer.

Only Hermione guessed uncertainly: "This memory has been tampered with?"

Although the white fog appeared this time, in terms of effect, it was not much different from the darkness at the end of Morfin's memory, which is why Hermione guessed so.

"I have to say it again," Dumbledore said, clapping his hands. "You are definitely one of the smartest students I have ever taught."

Hermione smiled smugly and shyly, then asked, "So, who tampered with Professor Slughorn's memory? Voldemort?"

Because there was a precedent for Morfin before, Hermione naturally guessed at Voldemort as well.

"No, Professor Slughorn's Occlumency is much better than Morfin. Even the current Voldemort may not have the ability to tamper with his memory." Dumbledore didn't give a **** and said the answer directly, "He tampered with it himself."

"But why would he do that?" Harry asked suspiciously.

"Because, I think, he was ashamed of the memory, so he doctored it, to make himself decent, to erase the parts he didn't want me to see. You see, too, and it's badly doctored. It's a good thing, it shows that the real memory is still underneath."

"So he's actually answering Voldemort's question about Horcruxes, right?"

?ω?

The cat, who had noticed something wrong before, asked with his head tilted.

"I think so," Dumbledore nodded, then explained: "This memory is after Riddle released the basilisk and obtained the Gaunt family ring, and he probably made it at this time. One or more Horcruxes, but he still went to Professor Slughorn to ask related questions... Maybe in this hidden memory, we can find clues about the number of Horcruxes, which is why I say this It's the most important memory I've ever had."

"Oops... I knew Fishh wouldn't be friends with Horace meow..."

(??ω??)?

Mao Mao scratched his head in distress, and said, "It's not good to force him to tell the truth now, meow?"

Compared with inquiring from side-by-side, Fishu still prefers simple and rude interrogation.

"As I said before, Slughorn's Occlumency is very good, especially after I forced him to hand over this distorted memory, he must have been on guard." Dumbledore shook his head and said. : "So, you should continue to have a good relationship with him, and then find a way to expose Professor Slughorn's real memory, which will undoubtedly be our most critical information."

"Severus' Heartbreak Potion doesn't work either, nah?"

(??ˇ?ˇ??)

Feixu had a deep memory of the tragic situation of Sirius at the beginning, and always subconsciously felt that there was no way to deal with it without losing his mind.

"I don't want to turn against Horace yet..." Dumbledore said with a wry smile: "And, don't forget, he is also a potions professor, and once a teacher of Severus, and a potions master, usually I'm used to having various types of antidote on my body, so even if I did give him the medicine, it remains to be seen whether it will be effective or not."

"Speaking of which... why won't Horace give you the real memory?"

?ω?

Mao Mao tilted his head in confusion, "Horace shouldn't like Voldemort now, right? Tell him directly that we are looking for Horcruxes, he has no reason not to help. Even this altered memory needs to be forced by you. Only willing to take it out...Isn't it weird nyan?"

"I don't think there is anything strange about this..." Ron was still very resentful to Professor Slughorn, he said angrily: "With his vanity-loving personality, he shouldn't want to help himself. Voldemort's matter is exposed, right? Naturally, it is necessary to hide this matter."

"Mr. Wesley is right," Dumbledore nodded in agreement, "Professor Slughorn takes his reputation very seriously. He uses his reputation and ability to maintain the Slug Club. If anyone knows Since Voldemort obtained the knowledge of Horcrux from him, it is definitely a fatal blow to him. I think this is one of the main reasons why he refuses to tell the truth to me. In addition..."

He sighed and said, "Actually, I'm not sure whether Voldemort made a Horcrux at this time, and there is even a possibility... He got the method of making a Horcrux from Professor Slughorn. , then it is not difficult to understand that Slughorn wanted to hide this past."

"All right…"

ε=(′ο*)

Mao Mao sighed, "I always feel that things are getting troublesome meow..."

"Can we really ask the truth from Professor Slughorn?" Harry also had little confidence.

Is there anything that Dumbledore can't do?

"You two are different from me," Dumbledore said confidently. "Professor Slughorn has always been very forgiving when dealing with students he likes, as he did with Riddle, and..." He Looking at Harry kindly, with a bit of apologetic tone in his tone, UU Reading "He should feel guilty about your mother, I think you can start from this."

Harry nodded silently.

Dumbledore's eyes swept back and forth between Fish and Harry, and then said firmly: "I believe you two are the ones who can break through his defenses. It is very important to get the real memory... How important it is, you will only know after seeing the real thing."

"Of course, most of you can't immediately ask the truth from Professor Slughorn, so you still have to be prepared for a protracted war." Dumbledore gave them another shot.

"Eh-why is it so troublesome meow..."

(?ω?)

It can't be solved by fighting, and if you fail, you have to continue... Fish's interest in this matter plummeted.

"This is only the worst possibility. Maybe Professor Slughorn will tell the truth as soon as you ask." Dumbledore said in a relaxed tone: "It's not too early... so , good luck...good night."

"Good night, Professor." ×3

Harry, Ron and Hermione all stood up, ready to leave.

But Fish was dissatisfied with today's story.

It's okay to assign tasks to yourself, and the two stories are nothing to watch.

Although Fish's own transformation energy unexpectedly increased because of the black gem, the cat's transformation this time was originally to heal Dumbledore, so it doesn't count!

"No! These two stories are not interesting at all this year! You have to show Fishy an interesting one!"

?(?`н'?)?

The cat puffed out her cheeks like a frog and yelled at Dumbledore angrily.
