"So, this is all just a beautiful accident?" Dumbledore smiled half-heartedly, "Ryan, don't you think accidents happen a little too often?"

"Uh, yes, Professor." Ryan put his gaze on his knees. "Life is inevitably full of accidents. Professor, we must accept this fact calmly instead of complaining about it."

"Ryan, the last time I saw you, you weren't so glib."

"This is your illusion, Professor." Ryan turned his attention to the other people in the living room, but did not look into Dumbledore's eyes. "I don't understand what I did wrong. I need you and this... Gentlemen from the Ministry of Magic are here to investigate."

Ryan has already thought about it. Instead of dealing with Dumbledore tremblingly, it is better to break the pot and break the pot. Anyway, if you don't ask, I won't tell, if you don't resist or obey, the wind will blow and you will run away.

"Professor Dumbledore." The clerk at the Ministry of Magic suppressed his impatience, "I'm not here to listen to you giving psychological counseling classes to your students. What I need is the results and the solution!"

"Oh, yes, Spencer, I understand how you feel." Dumbledore's voice did not change at all, "But we have to understand the ins and outs of the matter before we can punish him, right?"

"That's enough! This little bastard doesn't realize his mistake at all," Spencer stood up angrily, "He is lawless. You have no idea about the trouble he has caused to the Ministry of Magic. Hundreds of people have leaked secrets. The number of people is still there. It keeps increasing! Those Muggles are coming for that mischievous ghost like crazy, I really want to send him to Azkaban!"

"Spencer!" Dumbledore just raised his voice slightly, and the angry Ministry of Magic employee's momentum suddenly froze, and he sat down with a grumble.

"I think everyone should have realized the seriousness of this problem." Dumbledore put away his smile, glanced at Bach, and then turned his attention to Ryan, "Tell me, how should I punish you?"

Bach wanted to open his mouth to defend his son, but under Dumbledore's power he could only sit still. He felt extremely guilty now. After all, strictly speaking, he was also an accomplice.

It would be nice if Valerie was at home, Bach thought.Unfortunately, the law firm was not on holiday today, and when Dumbledore showed up, he was not given a chance to contact his wife.

Ryan was silent for a while and spread his hands: "Sorry, Professor, I really can't understand where I went wrong. And, Mr. Spencer, I can't understand either. What do you want me to do when you yell here? What do you do to solve the problem.”

Spencer opened his mouth angrily, but before the words came out, he was blocked by Dumbledore's look.

"Ryan, you need to understand that it is not shameful to admit your mistake, but it is shameful to blindly deceive yourself."

"Yes, Professor, I'm sorry for the accident I caused." Ryan said without wavering, "If I made any other mistakes, please help me point them out."

"Ryan, don't try to deceive me," the old wizard's stern gaze made Ryan's body tremble. "Magic is magical. We have many ways to make you tell the truth."

Looking at Ryan who pursed his lips, Dumbledore sighed in disappointment: "So, tell me, Ryan, do you know that wizards cannot cast spells in front of Muggles at will?"

"Yes, I know this very well." Dumbledore was stunned by Ryan's words, "So I never thought about casting spells in front of Muggles."

"Fart! How do you explain that ghost sighting?" Spencer couldn't help but say.

"I think I have said it many times, sir." Ryan sighed helplessly, "It was an accident. If I could have known in advance, in the middle of the night, after everyone fell asleep, in a remote lakeside cabin, You would be seen by two people who went fishing at night on a whim, and you wouldn’t be sitting here.”

"Why would you go to a place like that in the middle of the night?" Spencer's head was throbbing with veins, "Why don't you practice at home?"

"Isn't this just to avoid the crowd?" Ryan looked at him strangely, "There is something wrong with releasing the lighting spell and the extinguishing spell in the community in the middle of the night, okay?"

"Okay Spencer, you are too excited. This will not help solve any problem." Dumbledore frowned, "Ryan, even if those two Muggles suddenly appear, you have better ways to deal with it, such as the same Pretend to be night fishermen instead of scaring them with a quenching spell."

"Professor, I'm just a child!" Ryan grimaced, "You can't hold me to the standards of a completely rational person."

Dumbledore's mouth twitched, and he suddenly wanted to teach this little guy a lesson.

"Well, let's put aside the ghost thing for now. I think Professor McGonagall should have warned you that transfiguration is not allowed during the holidays."

"You are right, Professor." Ryan's answer once again stunned Dumbledore. "Professor McGonagall said that transfiguration is extremely dangerous and difficult to control. I remember it very clearly, and I will not easily take my own life as a joke. .”

These words made Dumbledore narrow his eyes, and he glanced at Spencer, who jumped up as expected.

"Lie, you heinous little liar!" Spencer flipped through the records, "Since July 7th, we have monitored that you have used a total of 20 transformation spells, which is why those strange fish came."

"Are you sure? I used Transfiguration?" Ryan's eyes lit up. He understood the source of the misunderstanding. Dumbledore must have thought that he was practicing Transfiguration.

He soon had another thought: From this point of view, Zongsi might not have any other ways to get around it.

Although the first grade can use magic at home through loopholes in the secrecy law, Ryan must make plans for life after the second grade.

Practical home magic is so delicious!

"No, that's right. Apart from you, there are no other wizards nearby." Spencer's voice was a little weak.

"Then I have to feel strange." Ryan deliberately lengthened his voice, "You knew I was using magic a few weeks ago. If I was really at fault, why didn't you stop me earlier and fish for law enforcement?"

"Because you haven't violated the Secrecy Act at that time!"

"So when and why did I break the law?"

"You..." Spencer's movements suddenly stalled. He stared at the smiling Ryan with wide eyes, shaking like he had Parkinson's disease.

"Ah, I remember." Ryan pretended to suddenly realize, "I used the Extinguishing Curse in front of Muggles, right? Professor, Mr. Official, I think this should be explained very clearly. It was an accident. "

Dumbledore pinched the bridge of his crooked nose with a headache: "Ryan, not all accidents are exempt from responsibility."

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard Ryan say in an aggrieved voice: "But I'm just an ignorant child..."

"Okay, then, let's put aside the issue of illegality, dear 'child', and let's talk about school rules." Dumbledore felt that he really needed to correct the child's character.

"But dear principal," Ryan said in a disgustingly sweet voice, "I haven't enrolled yet..."

Several adults present raised their eyebrows. Bach discovered the naughty talent in his son for the first time, and Spencer immediately thought of a certain annoying toad in the Ministry of Magic.

Dumbledore gave a stiff smile.

Well, the nature of children is good, not bad, but they lack a bit of love and beatings, and they are not well-behaved enough.
