Hogwarts: I'm a model wizard

In the abandoned barn, Dumbledore, who had lost part of his memory, and Kyle, who decided to stay, reached a preliminary cooperation intention.

They decided to give it a try and see if they could save Ariana.

"There's still some time."

Dumbledore said, "We can discuss what to do."

"No hurry." Kyle pushed open the barn door and walked out.

However, his action frightened Dumbledore, "Come back quickly, what do you want to do?"

As a wizard who had studied the time-turner, after returning to the past, Dumbledore subconsciously thought of hiding himself in advance, not contacting anyone other than the target, and reducing his presence as much as possible.

This is also the reason why he has been giving priority to protecting the barn... This is a good hiding place, and Dumbledore does not want his next plan to be disrupted by any unexpected changes.

So he also didn't want Kyle to be exposed to others.

Dumbledore wanted to pull Kyle back, but he was too weak, and he had just used magic too frequently, so he fell back into his chair the moment he stood up.

"To get something to eat, of course."

Kyle turned around and said as a matter of course, "I'm already hungry after working all night. Even if we're saving people, we need to fill our stomach first. Come on, Professor. The food here doesn't taste that good, but it's enough to fill our stomach."

"I won't go." Dumbledore shook his head. "I don't want to be recognized by others. It might affect my future plans. Please go quickly and come back soon."

"Recognized?" Kyle raised his eyebrows and waved his hand to conjure up a large mirror in front of Dumbledore. "Professor, you don't think anyone can recognize you at this time, do you?"

Dumbledore raised his head subconsciously.

He saw a tired, old face, with gray hair and beard, and even the blue eyes had dimmed a lot.

"I guarantee that no one will recognize you as Dumbledore," Kyle said confidently. "You look so different now from that high-spirited young man. Even if you tell others that you are the same person, no one will believe you."

"Yes, you are right." Dumbledore smiled bitterly and shook his head. He no longer insisted and left the barn with Kyle's help.

The two followed the path to the bar.

Because it was morning, there were not many people here. Kyle took Dumbledore to the bar, sat down in his most familiar seat, and ordered two breakfasts.

It was called breakfast, but it was just two pieces of bread that were so dry that you could hammer nails into them, and a glass of pumpkin juice. There was not even a piece of fried ham.

But the price is very cheap, just one Nath.

To be honest, Kyle hasn't spent Nat on its own in the past few years, and he almost forgot that this thing can be used as a separate currency.

"You can make do with what you have; there is nothing else here, or you can get another boiled potato."

Kyle broke the dry bread into pieces skillfully and soaked it in pumpkin juice. When the boss wasn't paying attention, he whispered, "But I suggest you don't order it. Old Brown doesn't wash the potatoes when he cooks them. They're not even cooked that day. The taste is like biting into a muddy stone."

"No, that's all," Dumbledore said absentmindedly.

He didn't mind what he ate, or rather, even if a delicious grilled steak was placed in front of him, he couldn't taste anything.

"We better hurry, they'll be back soon."

"Don't worry, it's still early." Kyle waved his hand and continued to soak his dry bread slowly. "Actually, I already have an idea in my mind, maybe it will work."

"You came up with a solution so quickly?" Dumbledore asked in surprise.

"It's not something I just thought of." Kyle shook his head. "I met Ariana a few days ago, in the attic, and I had this idea at that time."

Hearing Kyle calling Ariana's name, Dumbledore became nervous again and looked around subconsciously.

"Don't be nervous Professor, they can't hear you." Kyle said with a smile.

He felt that Dumbledore would lose his judgment whenever it came to Ariana.

"So, you want to save her too?" Dumbledore felt relieved after finding that no one was paying attention to this side.

"I can only say that I had this thought." Kyle explained: "My logic tells me that it was the best choice for you to come back with me at that time. But I also thought that even if you didn't lose those memories, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to leave without doing anything... After all, this guilt has tormented you for a hundred years."

"Is it so obvious?" Dumbledore couldn't help asking, "I always thought I could hide my emotions very well."

"That's just my guess," Kyle said. "You always like to knit wool socks, which usually symbolize family affection."

"Really?" Dumbledore was silent for a moment. "But I really want to receive a pair of wool socks for Christmas, but no one has ever given them to me... People always like to give me books, and most of them are books I have read."

"Don't worry, this situation will continue for many years." Kyle sighed.

It wasn't just Dumbledore, it was the same for him too. Seventy percent of the Christmas gifts he received were books of various kinds. Kyle felt that in a few years he would be able to open a private library.

"So what is your plan?" Dumbledore took the initiative to change the subject back to "How are we going to save Ariana?"

"It's not difficult to save Ariana. We can just use a Stunning Spell in advance or find an excuse to take her away." Kyle said, "The difficult part is how can we deceive Dumbledore... Of course, I mean the young Dumbledore."

"I know."

"So I decided to use this." Kyle took out a small bottle of potion and a long brown-red hair.

"Polyjuice Potion."

"That's right." Kyle nodded. "Before they come back, you take Ariana away in advance. I will drink the Polyjuice Potion and replace her..."

"No."

As soon as Kyle finished speaking, the idea was rejected by Dumbledore.

"Why?" Kyle asked, "This is the easiest way."

"I have a feeling this method won't work." Dumbledore was silent for a moment before saying, "You should know that I have come back more than once."

Kyle nodded.

"Unlike the previous times, your appearance has allowed some fragments of my lost memories to reappear. I vaguely remember using this method before." Dumbledore said, "Take Ariana away in advance, and then appear here in her guise."

"What was the result?" Kyle asked.

"I don't remember." Dumbledore said painfully, "But I can guess that after Ariana wakes up and finds herself in a strange place, she will definitely collapse emotionally, and the ending will not change at that time."

"Her Obscurus, you mean?"

"That's right." Dumbledore tightly grasped the cup of pumpkin juice. "Emotions are the fuse that caused the silent explosion in her body. Ariana must stay here."

Kyle frowned and said nothing.

He did neglect the problem of the Obscurus. Ariana had been locked up at home, and her world only consisted of her relatives, or to be more precise... Aberforth.

Moreover, even a normal person would panic if he found himself suddenly in an unfamiliar place, let alone the Silent One whose emotions are unstable.

"There is another way, which is more risky." Kyle narrowed his eyes.

"what?"

"Tell Ariana the truth..."

"This is absolutely not okay!"

Dumbledore stood up excitedly, instantly attracting the attention of everyone around him.

He sat back down again and lowered his voice, "You should know that the first rule of using a time-turner is that you must never tell others about the future."

"Then find a way to circumvent this rule."

“That can’t be changed.”

"No, there is still a way." Kyle glanced at the empty seat on the left.

If it was night, Cord would usually be sitting there, but it was morning now and he should still be brewing potions.

"Professor, do you remember Cord?"

"Coldpot?" Dumbledore asked in confusion, "Why do you mention him suddenly?"

"I've thought of a way." Kyle stood up suddenly, "Follow me."

Kyle left the two Nats at the bar and ran out of the bar without looking back.

Seeing this, Dumbledore hurriedly staggered after him.

Kyle ran along the path south of Godric's Hollow and soon saw a red two-story cottage.

The first floor here has been converted into a shop, with a handwritten sign hanging on it.

【Potter's Potion Shop】

Code had just finished greeting a customer when he looked up and saw Kyle running over.

"What a rare guest." He said with some surprise: "Do you need any potion? I have the Vixen Elimination Potion, the Joy Potion, and the Energizing Potion. Since you're treating me to a drink, I can give you a great discount."

Kyle took a quick look and found that the potions here were all very common types, with the most expensive one being the Joy Potion.

"I'll take them all." Kyle took out a handful of Galleons and placed them on the table. "Whether they're on the shelf or in stock, I'll take them all."

Code looked at the huge amount of Galleons on the counter, then looked at Kyle and smiled.

"I know you are rich, but you don't have to come here so early in the morning to entertain me... No, you must treat me to the best brandy in the evening, otherwise I will turn against you."

“I really want to buy it,” Kyle said.

"Okay, stop joking." Code waved his hand and prepared to chase him away.

Until he saw Kyle's serious expression, his outstretched hand suddenly stopped in mid-air.

"Give me a reason," he said. "Don't treat me as a fool. You don't look like someone who needs this kind of ordinary potion."

"Well, I can't hide anything from you." Kyle didn't beat around the bush and said directly: "I want to borrow something from you."

"Hey, you should have said so earlier." Code suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. "You made such a big fuss just to borrow something. You've been treating me to drinks for more than half a month. How can I refuse you when you finally ask?

"Really? Hurry up and put away the gold coins... Tell me, what do you want to borrow?"

"Invisibility cloak," Kyle said.

Code paused for a moment, but soon recovered and laughed awkwardly:

"Stop kidding me. Invisibility cloaks are rare. Even the richest family in Godric's Hollow, Dumbledore, may not have one. How could I possibly..."

"Ignotus Peverell." Kyle said a name, and Cord's voice stopped abruptly.

He stared at Kyle in a daze, then closed the door with a sullen face, "I don't understand what you are saying. Who is that?"

"The third of the three brothers in The Tales of Beedle the Bard. The name Porter is his descendant."

Kode's face became even uglier.

"Just because of a surname?" He said in a deep voice: "Porter is not an uncommon surname."
