Hogwarts: When the live Q&A goes live

Chapter 78 The Beginning of the Search for Horcruxes

In the corridor not far from the bathroom, a little wizard got up from the ground and looked around naturally.

The look on "his" face was very flat, and he didn't seem to care much about anyone or anything.

After a long time, the surroundings were still as calm as before.

The flat expression on his face began to gradually relax.

"Professor, you can't catch me."

He turned his head and looked through the window at the dark Forbidden Forest outside.

The Forbidden Forest is not far from the main castle of Hogwarts.

In the past, he only needed to avoid Filch to leave here through the castle gate or those windows.

But not now!
At least in a few months, after Dumbledore and the others relax their vigilance.

You don't need to guess to know that in Hogwarts now, Dumbledore must be staring at the surroundings of the school gate.

Tom was a little worried, and the sudden appearance of the question and answer room broke his upcoming plan and exposed him to Dumbledore.

Fortunately, he also got a good reward from it, making his soul more perfect, and also got a piece of powerful magic equipment.

With a heartbeat, behind him, a white cloak suddenly appeared, and then disappeared as a phantom.

And Tom had a smile on his face.

Let him stay in this old school for a while longer.

He pulled out his wand and gently chanted the spell around him.

A gust of wind blew by, as if nothing had happened.

After finishing all this, Tom put away the diary in his pocket, and then walked to the Ravenclaw Tower, which was also on the eighth floor.

He needed time and a new way to bring himself back to life.

As for the little wizard under his control, it's not yet time for him to wake up.

Time...they all need time.

After he left, the corridor was once again peaceful.

………………

The main castle of Hogwarts on the eighth floor, Dumbledore's headmaster's office.

Several professors stood with Dumbledore, and many portraits of the former principals on the wall closed their eyes and mouths, as if I had fallen asleep.

"This time we got a lot of information, even a little beyond my expectations."

Dumbledore said with a smile, but the smile on his face obviously couldn't hide the tiredness in his eyes.

"I always knew he was alive and his soul never died."

"However, tonight, when he appeared in front of me again, I couldn't help but feel a little puzzled..."

"What method did Voldemort use to keep himself immortal? Fortunately, the question and answer space later solved my doubts, but it also brought more questions, which also gave me a very headache."

As he spoke, Dumbledore put his hands on his head, pretending to have a headache.

However, apart from McGonagall and Lockhart, Snape didn't really like Dumbledore's tricks.

"It's the quantity. We don't know how many Horcruxes that person has. This is the most worrying thing in your heart."

"Yes, Severus, we don't know how many Horcruxes he has and what they are. Because Horcruxes can be a stone, a book, or anything, And we don’t know anything about it.”

Dumbledore glanced at Snape approvingly, then worried.

In fact, as he said.

Although, they got Voldemort's biggest secret and the most critical information.

However, they also don't know how many Horcruxes Voldemort has, and what those Horcruxes are.

"We can't help it, Dumbledore."

"Wait a minute, I think we might be able to catch that person and ask about the whereabouts of those Horcruxes."

When Snape followed with a sigh, Lockhart showed his shiny white teeth and said with a fierce look in his eyes.

Dumbledore took a deep look at him. Since Lockhart got the ability to improve those spells in the question and answer space, he seemed to be a different person.

Strong abilities can naturally bring him more confidence.

What's more, as one of the few spiritual series magic masters in Hogwarts, the confident Lockhart might be able to resist that person's Imperius Curse mentally.

During the period when that person was determined to hide himself, there was a high probability that there would be no fatalities or injuries.

unless
Dumbledore narrowed his eyes.

Some things are not so easy to do.

Dumbledore has always been the one who knows his students best.

If it was Tom, he knew he wouldn't do something meaningless.

As long as he's not Voldemort.

Dumbledore thought quietly.

Now, the whole Hogwarts situation is getting a little weird.

Tom hid in the shadows, judging from the hints he had made to himself in his previous words, he might need to leave Hogwarts, hoping that he would not stop him.

But both he and Tom knew it.

It is not so easy to leave Hogwarts.

Especially at present, including Dumbledore, plus several other professors will keep an eye on all the passages that can leave Hogwarts in the next time, and in the next Christmas, prepare to leave Hogg Some of Watts' students.

However, the first few months are still easy to watch, the most important thing is the few days of Christmas.

Tom might leave here with some of the young wizards who went home in those days.

Therefore, even if they wanted to catch Tom, they had to find him within a few months.

"Gidero's proposal is very good, but we don't know where Tom is hiding now."

Professor McGonagall was also extremely surprised that Lockhart could make such a suggestion, but she followed Lockhart's words and said, but suddenly turned a corner.

"He is Voldemort's first horcrux, and that horcrux is likely to be hidden anywhere. This undoubtedly expands our search range and increases our task load."

Dumbledore nodded subconsciously, agreeing with what Professor McGonagall said.

If it weren't for the fact that they didn't know what Voldemort's Horcrux looked like, they would have been planning to carry out a big search some time after tomorrow.

After all, he already knew what he looked like. As long as he dared to hide beside those little wizards, they would definitely find him.

It's just a matter of sooner or later.

"But these are not very important. The most important thing is that we don't know what this Horcrux looks like."

Snape touched his sleeve and said to them flatly.

In fact, Snape also had his own considerations.

If he got the horcrux in his hands, then as the master of Legilimency, he can naturally try to see if he can get the whereabouts of the resurrection stone from this horcrux.
