Chapter 696 Memories (seeking monthly ticket recommendation ticket)
After the shock of that sudden exercise, Hogwarts finally regained its long-lost tranquility.

Of course, this is just an appearance. Every time those little wizards see Anduin, they will recall the horror memories of that day with lingering fear.

But soon they don't have to worry about this. As time passed and the Christmas holiday was approaching, many little wizards were looking forward to going home and complaining to their families about what happened during the half term.

Therefore, in a short period of time, the little wizards in the school suddenly became a lot more excited, as if they were returning to the light.

But among them, some people are not so happy, such as Harry who will stay in school for Christmas.

In fact, he didn't dislike staying at Hogwarts. Compared with returning to Privet Drive to spend Christmas with the Dursleys, he was looking forward to spending the holidays at school.

The reason why he was relatively disappointed was that he was about to lose the company of his friends. Hermione and Neville had to go home, while Ron and the twin brothers planned to spend Christmas with their families in Romania. Brother Charlie, who had been working on Side for a year, was reunited.

At the same time, Malfoy's foul-mouthed taunt that he has no parents and that he can't go home for the holidays is also very uncomfortable.

On Christmas Day, as soon as Harry got out of bed, he began to open presents, without the company of friends, and these presents were his consolation during the holiday.

Harry received a rough flute from Hagrid, 50p coins from the Dursleys, a large box of chocolate frogs from Hermione, and fudge and sweaters from Ron's mother.

In addition, Harry also received an invisibility cloak with an anonymous note saying: This invisibility cloak once belonged to Harry's father, and now it has been returned to its original owner and let him "use it well".

Seeing this magical invisibility cloak, Harry couldn't put it down to look at it repeatedly, and at the same time couldn't help but wonder who gave it to him.

Harry's first thought was naturally Anduin, this alchemy tool easily reminded him of that powerful and mysterious professor, but the note stated that it was his father's relic, so he couldn't make up his mind for a while .

But he quickly gave up on this idea, because the gift that was unwrapped at the end allowed him to tell at a glance that it was made by Anduin.

It was a metal square box somewhat similar to a blind box, except that Harry fumbled around with the metal box, but he was still unable to open it. There was only a strangely shaped cross keyhole right above the metal box.

At the same time, there is another note next to it: This is my memory with your mother, but you need to work hard to open it. Come to the third room on the left side of the fifth floor of the main tower tonight——Anduin Wilson.

"Professor Wilson's memories of my mother? Does he have any special relationship with my mother?" Harry murmured while holding the weird lock box in his hand.

He still remembered that the few words he had heard from Hagrid and Vivienne all indicated that the new professor seemed to have a special connection with him.

But after entering school, Anduin treated everyone equally and severely, making Harry forget this for a while, but now that the professor took the initiative to bring it up, he couldn't help but have endless reveries in his heart.

"Forget it, you can't get any results by guessing here. Let's find out tonight. I think Professor Wilson won't hurt himself." Harry suppressed the doubts in his heart and calculated.

That night, in the dead of night, Harry put on the invisibility cloak he had just acquired today, and quietly walked out of the Gryffindor common room.

When he arrived at the room that Anduin had mentioned, Harry found that it was actually a classroom that had long been abandoned.

The entire room was very empty and the surroundings were covered with dust, except for a three-meter-high object covered with flannelette placed by the wall.

After Harry uncovered the velvet covering, he realized that it was a mirror with strange inscriptions engraved on it.

At the same time, Harry, standing in front of the mirror, found many people standing behind him in the mirror, but when he turned around, he found no one.

After wondering for a while, Harry realized that the two people in the mirror were his dead father and mother.

At this time, Harry wanted to talk to them, but the parents in the mirror could only wave to him.

Harry was fascinated by this miraculous mirror for a while, and he stood in front of the mirror blankly, until an abrupt voice interrupted him.

"In front of it, you'd better learn to restrain yourself, Harry." Anduin, who appeared at some unknown time, came not far from Harry.

"Professor, what is this... this mirror? Could it be the memory you mentioned?" Harry was not surprised by Anduin's appearance, after all, he was guided by him when he came here.

"No, this is the Mirror of Erised." Anduin explained softly.

Immediately after seeing the invisibility cloak on Harry, Anduin seemed to be reminded of some special memory, and even frowned slightly.

He was a little surprised why this cloak appeared on Harry's body. It should have belonged to James Potter, and Anduin had seen the McKinnons wear it at their wedding.

Anduin had thought this cloak was lost, and what kind of cloak was it?Can you still keep your magic after ten years?
"What is the Mirror of Erised? Why can I see my parents through it?"

Harry's voice interrupted Anduin's thoughts, and he turned his attention away from the invisibility cloak.

"Everyone standing in front of it sees a different scene." Anduin smiled slightly, "The happiest person in the world sees only his own image in this mirror, you can guess what it is What is it?"

"So it allows us to see what we want to see most? Is this magic mirror also the work of your professor?" Harry realized the answer to the question, and then couldn't help turning his eyes to the content on the mirror.

"It can reflect the deepest desire in your heart. This is a mirror of desire, but you have to realize clearly that what it reflects is only desire after all, and it cannot bring you knowledge."

"In addition, this magic mirror is not my work. Dumbledore put it here, and I just came here to hand it over." Anduin explained to Harry with a gentle expression.

"Handover? Is the principal going to give you this mirror?" Harry's eyes widened.

"It's not a gift." Anduin shook his head slightly, "He just lent it to me to study for a while, and there are other tasks that need the help of this mirror."

"Huh?" Harry realized that he couldn't understand Anduin's words at all, but then he couldn't help looking at him curiously, "Professor, what do you see in this mirror?"

"Me..." Anduin had a hint of disdain on his expression, "I've passed the stage where I need illusion to fill the gap in my heart, and its level is actually not particularly high, and it can't directly see through me."

"So you can't see anything superfluous in the mirror?" Harry looked at his parents in the mirror, and couldn't help but look at Anduin again.

"Yes, you'd better not get too obsessed with it, but I will leave this mirror here during the Christmas period. If you are really interested during this period, you can come here to see your parents." Andu therefore Sometimes he is not as strict as when he was a professor, but more like a persuasive elder.

Harry naturally nodded happily when he heard that, and then remembered his purpose of coming here, and then he took out the strange metal box, and looked at Anduin hopefully.

"Professor, you said that there are memories of you and my mother hidden in it? But how can I open it? Are you familiar with my parents? What kind of people are they?" Harry is now like a more talkative Children, throw all kinds of questions to Anduin.

"I know there are many doubts in your mind that you want to get answers from me." Anduin smiled kindly, "But I hope you can solve the puzzles through your own efforts, there are many things that may not have value in themselves , requires us to consume time, emotion and experience to give meaning to it."

"Have you seen the cross lock hole in the center of this metal box? In fact, its key is in your hand." Anduin pointed to the lock hole on the top of the square box and smiled.

"In my hand?" Harry looked at Anduin in confusion, "but there is nothing on me that can fit into this keyhole."

"That's because the key to open it is not the so-called real thing, but your magic power." Anduin explained, "The four lock teeth of this cross lock hole represent your four major attributes. When all the attributes of the keyhole have been raised to ★☆, inject magic power into the keyhole, and the first floor can be opened smoothly."

"So that's the case." Harry felt that the professor in front of him was really outrageous, making such a complicated Christmas present.

But soon Harry realized something, and couldn't help staring at Anduin with wide eyes, "You mean to open the first layer? Are there many layers in this box?"

"That's right, there are two layers in it, and it will take your efforts to crack it completely, and it will give you a reminder after you open it." Anduin said in a soft voice.

"Is that so..." Harry was a little anxious when he heard the words, he was even more curious about Anduin's so-called memories with his mother, and he wished he could open it now.

Anduin also saw Harry's thoughts, "Don't worry, there are many things that require energy and effort to resonate."

"But here I can tell you in advance that I do have a very close relationship with your parents, as for more specific..." Anduin grinned, "Come to me after you fully open this box, Then I will answer all your doubts for you."

"Yes, Professor Wilson!" Harry could hear the sincerity in Anduin's tone, so he gradually let go of his impetuous heart, and tightly hugged the magic box in his hand.
