Arms dealer from Hogwarts

Chapter 101
"The diary was found."

The next day, in the principal's office, Jemini sat leisurely on a soft chair with his legs crossed.

On Dumbledore's desk, Tom Riddle's diary was quietly placed there.

"So, Tom was attached to Miss Granger before, is that so?" Dumbledore asked gently.

"Hmm... She seems to have taken the joke on the book cover seriously. After all, she found it in the library, and it's not something in the restricted section..." Jemini sighed, "So let your guard down."

Dumbledore's voice was kind: "I want to ask, how did you get him out of Miss Granger? Without destroying this thing..."

"If he doesn't come out of Hermione, I'll force her to have sex with Hermione or something..." Jemini said casually, "He might be scared."

There was an eerie silence in the air for a while, and in the next moment, loud laughter came from the wall of the portraits of past principals. Phineas supported the stool and pounded the ground.

Dai Lisi, who was drinking black tea, sprayed black tea on the canvas, and the bald old man next to her sprayed out her dentures with a smile.

Dumbledore couldn't help laughing too, the first time Jemini had seen him laugh like this.

"Good boy! It's really Slytherin's style!" Phineas said loudly, shaking his fist.

Dai Lisi gave Phineas a white look: "This is not a good thing, I mean, it is really too much for a girl, but of course, special treatment in special times..."

Even so, the smile on her face never stopped.

"I think you must have left an indelible psychological shadow on him..." Dumbledore said cheerfully, wiping away the tears from the corners of his eyes.

"It looks like it is." Jemini nodded: "So the matter should be over here."

As Jemini said, he stood up and took out the Gryffindor sword inlaid with red gemstones from the glass cabinet beside him.

Immediately afterwards, he took out a small bottle from his arms, which contained a pale green liquid.

"This is... the venom of the basilisk?" Dumbledore looked carefully at the small bottle in Jemini's hand: "If I remember correctly, the market price of this thing is forty Galleons an ounce, which is extremely expensive."

"Yeah..." Jemini opened the small bottle and dripped the venom on the Gryffindor sword, and the venom was sucked up by the sword in an instant.

Immediately afterwards, Jemini took the sword and stabbed it in the diary.

puff-

There was a sound like a sword piercing flesh, black ink splashed Lao Gao, and a miserable howl came from the diary.

Jemini kept moving, and stabbed with two swords again. Soon, the howling sound of the diary disappeared. Jemini picked up the diary, picked up the quill from Dumbledore's desk, and put it on it. There were two crashes, this time, the ink did not disappear again, but remained on the paper.

"Very beautiful approach, crisp and neat, Slytherin deserves [-] points, Albus!" Phineas suggested loudly on the wall.

"This is not a bonus item, Phineas." Dumbledore said gently, "But I still have to affirm Mr. Fox's excellent handling ability."

"Okay, this matter is over." Jemini clapped his hands: "If there's nothing else, I'll go back first?"

"Please wait a moment, Jamie." Dumbledore propped his chin with both hands: "I think it's time for us to talk about things like Voldemort's diary, if I remember correctly, you said before , last year you found a diadem in the Room of Requirement, didn't you?"

"Right." Jamie nodded.

"Horcruxes." Dumbledore said suddenly: "Voldemort made the diary and the crown into Horcruxes. It is rumored that this thing can make people live forever. This is what Voldemort has been pursuing for a long time."

"Generally speaking, it would be a great sin to create one of these things, but as you can see, there are now only two Horcruxes we know. I need to know how many Horcruxes he made."

Dumbledore looked at Jamini seriously: "I hope you can help me."

"I'm not the roundworm in his stomach." Jemini rolled his eyes.

"Horace Slughorn." Dumbledore ignored Jemini's words and continued: "You had a relationship with him before the summer vacation, didn't you?"

"Ah...that's right." Jemini nodded, "He is a very interesting elder, so what do you want to say?"

"In the days after Voldemort's downfall, when we were celebrating, Slughorn accidentally revealed that he knew about Voldemort's creation of Horcruxes." Dumbledore said, "But because of my questioning, and His own guilt, he quickly resigned from Hogwarts and has been avoiding me."

Dumbledore looked at Jemini: "I need a memory about how many Horcruxes Voldemort made. That memory is very important, Jemini."

"Although my relationship with Professor Slughorn is not bad, we only met once. I don't think we are familiar enough for him to tell me this kind of thing." Jamie shook his head .

"As I said before, you are similar to Voldemort in some ways, but completely opposite in some ways, so in my opinion, you actually have a good chance." Dumbledore said seriously.

"Then he won't tell me, professor." Jemini rolled his eyes: "Normal people would stay away from it, and repeat the same mistakes, right?"

"To tell you the truth, Horace is not a normal person. As long as you are good enough, he can't help but want to get close to you." Dumbledore said cheerfully.

Jemini spread his hands: "I've guessed the number, seven, how about it? Isn't this a very magical number? I have told you in advance, can I? No need to go through a lot of trouble to ask again .”

Dumbledore's light blue eyes looked directly at Jemini: "If you can do it, I am willing to pay you fifty thousand Galleons."

Heh...just fifty thousand!
Jemini looked impatient: "I already told you, professor, seven! Seven!"

"Although you and Voldemort do have some similarities, I can't bet that you both guess the same number." Dumbledore said gently: "So, do you want the fifty thousand?"

Jemini was silent for a few seconds, then raised a finger: "If I guess correctly, you must add an additional [-] Galleons as compensation for wasting my time!"

"Okay." Dumbledore nodded.

"I see, it's a deal!" Jemini turned and left the principal's office: "Memorize [-] Galleons, and if you guess correctly, add another [-]. Don't go back on your word, professor."

Bang!
The door is closed.

Jemini, who had just walked out of the principal's office, jumped three feet high and ran away in joy.

"You're hooked, Dumbledore." Phineas laughed.

"Yeah, although I don't know why he is so sure..." Dumbledore nodded: "But I must get that memory, he is an unexpected surprise, but what I want to guarantee is the expected safety , this cannot be changed in any way.”
