Travel from Hogwarts

Chapter 72 The second conversation with Dumbledore

"Want something to drink?"

After arriving at Dumbledore's office, Dumbledore did not question Drinker directly, but first asked Drinker if he wanted to drink.

"A glass of iced pumpkin juice, thank you." Drinker didn't want it at first, but he was really thirsty. He hadn't drank water for four hours, and he was still very nervous.

After receiving a response, Dumbledore also snapped his fingers, and then a glass of chilled pumpkin juice appeared in front of Drinker.

"Thank you, Professor," Drinker said without any politeness. He directly picked up the pumpkin juice and drank it in one gulp.

"Ah," Drinker felt very comfortable with the cool and sweet taste of the iced pumpkin juice.

"I can see that you are very thirsty." Dumbledore said with a smile as he looked at Drinker who drank all the pumpkin juice in one gulp.

"I haven't drank water all afternoon, Professor," Drinker also returned.

"It seems you are very busy," Dumbledore said teasingly. This time Drinker didn't answer. He didn't know what to answer.

"Which one of you comes first?" Dumbledore asked after Drinker put down the quilt.

"I'll go first, I'll go first!" Peeves argued.

"Okay, then Mr. Peeves, you come first," Dumbledore said.

"He is such a professor. More than a month ago, I met this devil at the door of the kitchen! At that time, he asked me about the location of the Room of Requirement. His appearance at that time was extremely terrifying. He was exactly the same as the Dark Lord 50 years ago. Peeves shouted, his eyes filled with horror as he spoke of the Dark Lord.

"Huh? What? I am exactly the same as Voldemort. Thank you so much for complimenting me! If the Dark Lord knew you were so smart, he would definitely kill you." Drinker also cursed secretly in his heart.

"Then today, today I was walking on the road, and then suddenly someone stopped me and couldn't move. I was so scared at the time, and that person threatened me and wanted to kill me," Peeves shouted again.

"That person is him, it's him, he is the future Dark Lord, he is exactly the same as the Dark Lord." Peeves said again. It can be seen that he seems to only know the idiom "exactly the same".

"Relax, Peeves, don't be so excited." Looking at Peeves like this, Dumbledore spoke again to comfort him.

"Drink, do you have anything to say?" After Peeves was calmed down, Dumbledore turned his attention to Drink and asked.

"Professor, it's not what Peeves said. I just accidentally learned about the Room of Requirement in the book, and then I wanted to find him," Drinker explained.

"As for why Mr. Peeves was scared, in fact, it was all because of a boy's prank. I remember that Mr. Peeves also often played tricks on other people,"

"Furthermore, Peeves also played a trick on my good friend Neville Longbottom. You don't know how he scared Neville. Do you remember the last time I was in a coma? At that time, Neville was worried about my situation, so he He wanted to go to the hospital to find me at night, and then he met Peeves,"

"Neville originally didn't know the way, but Peeves was scaring him. Neville told me that he suddenly appeared from behind, grabbed his nose from behind, and even threw stones at him!"

Drink continued, it was a month ago that Peeves played tricks on Neville, and Drink suddenly thought of it just now when he was concentrating on his wits. He remembered that he was still laughing at Neville at that time, but he didn't expect that he was laughing at Neville now. Became his own life-saving straw.

"Not just Neville, Peeves played tricks on at least forty freshmen, probably more," Drink continued.

"You're talking nonsense, I'm not," Peeves shouted the next moment.

"Quiet, Peeves," Dumbledore stopped him.

"Professor, me!" Peeves still wanted to explain.

"You don't need to talk about Peeves, I know you, you are just playing with them, right," the next moment, Dumbledore directly gave Peeves a step.

"Yes, that's the case, I, I'm just helping them integrate into Hogwarts," Peeves said.

"Okay, let's leave this matter as it is. Peeves, please leave first. I want to talk to Mr. Drinker alone." Then, Dumbledore asked Peeves to leave.

"I!"

"Okay, Professor," Peeves looked at Dumbledore, could only agree, and then left slowly.

But before leaving, Peeves still glared at Drinker hard, as if to say, just wait, I won't let you go.

Peeves was gone, but Drinker did not relax, because it was never Peeves that he cared about, but.

"Okay, Drinker, now it's time for you to tell me why you did what you did!" After Peeves left, Dumbledore stared at Drinker with his deep eyes and asked.

"Gudu!" Drinker swallowed silently. Dumbledore's gaze made him very uncomfortable.

Because he had a feeling that he had been seen through.

"I'm sorry, Professor, I must confess, the reason why I scared Peeves was not entirely because of Neville." There was no other way, Drinker had no choice but to tell the truth.

"I scare Peeves because he calls me the Dark Lord, which I don't like, and also because I really don't like him," Drinker began.

After saying that, Drinker looked up at Dumbledore, waiting for Dumbledore's punishment.

"Well, it seems that you are not lying. After all, Peeves is indeed a bit naughty," Dumbledore said after a long time, but he did not punish Drinker.

"Huh," Drinker also breathed out.

"However, I am more curious about how you know that Mr. Peeves knows the location of the Room of Requirement." Then Dumbledore continued.

"Poof!" Drinker just picked up the iced pumpkin juice and was about to drink a glass. Then he heard Dumbledore's words, and he spit it out.

Opposite him was Dumbledore.

He thought the matter was over, but he didn't expect Dumbledore to have guessed something.

"I'm sorry, Professor, I didn't mean to," Drinker apologized hastily, but when he opened his eyes, he realized that Dumbledore had not been splashed.

A very gorgeous light silver barrier stood in front of him.

"It's really profound magic. You're so powerful, Professor," Drinker said flatteringly the next moment.

"Thank you," Dumbledore was amused by Drinker, but he still had no intention of letting Drinker go.

"Okay, Professor, I'll be honest. Actually, do you believe me when I say I guessed it? Of course, I didn't guess everything. On the first day of school, which was the second day, I was looking for the entrance to the kitchen. And then Peeves showed up and he told me the entrance to the kitchen, and then a few weeks later, it was Peeves again at the kitchen door, and I happened to see the Room of Requirement book, and I asked him ." Drinker told everything. Of course, this was half-truth and half-false. Most of it was true, but a small part was hidden.

"You will know what happened next. Peeves went crazy and called me the Dark Lord on the spot. Although I come from a Muggle family, I have read a lot of books about the wizarding world, so I still know about Voldemort. I don't I thought he was complimenting me, so I scared it." Drinker continued, and this time what he said was basically true.

"Oh, is that so? If so, why are you covering it up?" Dumbledore didn't show any surprise or other expression after hearing this, but continued to ask Drinker.

"I, I know, what I did was wrong, and I'm afraid you'll punish me," Drinker said.

Hearing this, Dumbledore smiled quietly.
