Professor of Pharmacy at Hogwarts

Alexis covered his nose and took two quick steps. He was very suspicious that the stench was actually Quirrell's newly invented magic spell, which was specially used to drive away enemies and eventually stink them to death.

The three of them quickly passed the checkpoint and came to the Mirror of Erised.

Quirrell looked at the Mirror of Erised, with brief obsession and greed in his eyes.This made Alexis curious, what did he see in the mirror?

With his back on his back, Dumbledore took out the Sorcerer's Stone from the Mirror of Erised.

As soon as he got the Philosopher's Stone, Dumbledore's face turned ugly.

This magic stone is actually the only one known to exist, and it was also made by him personally with Nicola Flamel.He could tell the authenticity of the Philosopher's Stone at a glance.

Although the one in his hand looked extremely realistic, Dumbledore was very convinced that it was fake!

Just as Dumbledore was about to announce that the Philosopher's Stone had been stolen, his movements paused again.

Dumbledore fumbled, turned the Sorcerer's Stone over, and brought it close to his eyes to inspect.

“Felix’s Dessert Shop – Hogsmeade”

There is a special mark on the magic stone.

Dumbledore recognized the logo. It was the logo of Alexis Dessert Shop. Every dessert produced by Felix Dessert Shop would be carefully engraved with the address of the branch where it came from.

This magical stone that looks very realistic is a dessert from the Hogsmeade branch of Felix's Dessert Shop!

Dumbledore turned to look at Alexis.

Alexis smiled triumphantly.

He glared at Alexis fiercely and put his hand back on the Mirror of Erised as usual.

"The Philosopher's Stone is fine, let's go."

Dumbledore looked at Alexis thoughtfully and turned to leave.

Behind him, Quirrell secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the Philosopher's Stone is still there, and he didn't get it either!

Alexis smiled happily.

The three of them returned to the corridor on the fourth floor. After Dumbledore gave a few concerned instructions, he walked towards the office.

"Alex, come with me."

Dumbledore stopped Alexis who was about to leave.

"I have some insomnia, please chat with me."

Alexis responded with a smile on her face, waved her hand at Quirrell, and followed Dumbledore.

…………

Principal's office.

Closing the door, the smile on Dumbledore's face disappeared without a trace.

"Where's the Philosopher's Stone?"

Alexis sat down on her own and proudly took out the small cloth bag from her arms.

"Here it is."

"I have long said that there is something wrong with Quirrell. You still don't believe it. How about you believe it now?"

Alexis looked proud, and after telling her plan again, she had a "Come and praise me" expression on her face, which gave Dumbledore a headache.

"Alex. This is very important." Dumbledore knocked on the table. "Do you know that if Snape or Professor McGonagall discover the signature on the Philosopher's Stone when they examine it, they will turn on you?"

"You are fooling around!"

Alexis' smile froze on his face, he didn't expect Dumbledore's reaction.

"Old man, you hid the Philosopher's Stone without telling me. All the teachers at Hogwarts know about it. It's okay if I don't know. Now I'm helping you!"

"I have helped you find the suspect. All you have to do is wait quietly for him to take the bait. This not only protects the safety of the Magic Stone, but also helps you solve a big trouble. If you don't thank me, forget it. What do you mean?"

"Do you think your messy levels are safe?"

"I only need 10 minutes, 10 minutes to stand in front of the broken mirror from the corridor on the fourth floor and take away the magic stone!"

"Did you discover the whole process of the package swap? No, right? This shows that your protection measures are not effective at all!"

"You don't have enough protective measures, and you blame me."

Alexis muttered, feeling very aggrieved.

Dumbledore was carrying out secret operations without telling him. Everyone in the school knew about it, but he didn't, which made him feel like a fool.

Forget it, he used his own ability to discover the loopholes in the protection measures and provided them with a remedial plan. Not only did he not praise himself, he also looked like "you are messing around." What does this mean? ! !

"If you do this, it will easily disrupt my deployment. If others discover this thing, all eyes will be focused on you and all suspicion will be directed at you."

Dumbledore was still trying to reason with Alexis, but unfortunately Alexis was no longer willing to listen.

"I know. I'll give it back to you!" Alexis slammed the real magic stone on the table. "I'm so sentimental and nosy. I deserve it."

"If I care about your affairs from now on, I will be a dog!"

Alexis sat in her chair sulking.

Dumbledore picked up the Sorcerer's Stone that bounced on the ground, looked at Alexis with an angry look on his face, and sighed.

"What did you see in the Mirror of Erised again?"

He softened his tone, preparing to change the topic and lighten the atmosphere.

The Mirror of Erised can reflect what a person desires most deep in his heart. This is a truth that has been verified countless times.

But this truth didn't apply to Alexis.

What Alexis saw in the Mirror of Erised was not what his heart longed for.

This mirror reflected all the desires, fears and other messy emotions in Alexis's heart.

This moment made both Alexis and Dumbledore very confused.

Looking into the Mirror of Erised gradually changed from curiosity and fun to fear and confusion for Alexis.

Upon hearing Dumbledore's question, Alexis stiffened. He put down his arms, stood up from the chair, and walked toward the door in a panic.

"Nothing," he said. "I didn't see anything."

"The magic stone is returned to you. You can keep it for yourself. I'm leaving."

Dumbledore stood there, looking at the back of Alexis who had fled, looking a little worried.

The last time Alexis didn't want to tell himself about the reflection in the Mirror of Erised, what he saw was the death of Grindelwald.

That time he was just a little silent, but after repeated questioning, he still spoke out.

Now that he is running away like this, what exactly is he seeing?

In fact, Dumbledore and Grindelwald had a discussion about the reflection Alexis saw in the Mirror of Erised.

They put forward various hypotheses and possibilities, but none of them were consistent with the actual situation. Their discussion had no results, but in fact the two of them knew each other well, and there was another possibility.

The Mirror of Erised claims to allow people to see their most urgent and strongest desires deep in their hearts. If there is no problem with this rule, if the Mirror of Erised is not broken...
