HP has a villain system but has become a popular character

Early in the morning, in the classroom seats in the Hogwarts Great Hall.

Dumbledore tasted the food in front of him, and his blue eyes hidden behind the half-moon lenses never took their gaze away from Sirius and the others.

He had been observing a few people since school started, probably trying to create the feeling that Wenxiu Lord was still around.

There was no change in their daytime routines. Even Sirius, who was often late, showed up in the auditorium on time every day during the past few months.

The kind smile remained unchanged, but the emotion in his eyes had changed.

Professor McGonagall saw that Dumbledore was looking at the people at the Gryffindor and Slytherin tables, so she put down her knife and fork and frowned.

"Principal Dumbledore, I have something to tell you after breakfast."

As a member of the Order of the Phoenix, Minerva McGonagall naturally knew the identity of Vinciu Lord.

That was why she felt dissatisfied after she understood the hidden meaning in Dumbledore's gaze.

When she first learned about Vinciu Lord's undercover identity, she argued with Dumbledore.

After all, Wenxiu Lord is still a child, and such a heavy burden should not be placed on a teenager like him.

But the matter was done, she couldn't persuade Dumbledore, and Vince Lord had made up his mind.

Now that she has the opportunity to stop it, she will certainly not allow these children who have not yet graduated to join the Order of the Phoenix.

Dumbledore smiled and looked away, "Sure, if Professor McGonagall doesn't have a class later, you can come to the headmaster's office to find me."

The sound of intensive flapping wings reached their ears. The two stopped talking and looked up. A group of owls flew into the auditorium.

They flapped their wings, clutching various packages and landed in front of their respective owners.

When Remus and his companions from Gryffindor and Severus from Slytherin saw the newspaper held by the owl, a little hope was rekindled in their hearts.

They are so excited every morning since school started.

Today, what they finally gain is no longer disappointment but even greater worries.

Unfolding "The Quibbler", several people looked straight to the lower left corner with familiarity.

The familiar signature appeared before their eyes again after several months. Several people deconstructed the information in the story according to the method and confirmed that Wenxiu Lord was not injured. Only then did everyone feel relieved.

Seeing Remus' brows relax, Lily rolled her eyes and looked at Sirius, who was finally in the mood to eat.

The depressing atmosphere around the two of them relaxed a lot, probably because they had received news about Wenxiu Lord.

There has been no news about Wenxiu Lord's safety. As his good friend, how could Lily not be worried?

But so many of her friends were becoming increasingly uncontrollable, and Lily could only suppress her worries and anxieties deep in her heart.

Now that she knew that Wenxiu Lord was not in danger, Lily curled her lips into a faint smile. The anxiety and worry that had been accumulating in her heart for a long time was finally released like a cork from a water bottle. Although it was still there, a lot of it was released.

Dumbledore also read the information on the story.

He folded the newspaper, took one last look at the people at the two long tables of the academy, then turned and left through the side door.

Professor McGonagall, who had finished breakfast and left early, had been waiting here for a long time. When she saw Dumbledore appear, she followed behind him with a frown and said nothing.

The two arrived at the headmaster's office, and Professor McGonagall drew her wand and cast a spell around them to block the portrait's eavesdropping.

There were classes to be held soon, so Professor McGonagall went straight to the point, "Dumbledore, they haven't graduated yet, you can't guide them to join the Order of the Phoenix."

Dumbledore walked to the sofa and raised his hand to signal Professor McGonagall. He smoothed his long and fluffy beard and sat down leisurely.

"Minerva, as you said, they are still children, why would I let them join the Order of the Phoenix now?"

Professor McGonagall looked worried, and hesitated to speak.

Seeing what she meant, Dumbledore had no choice but to defend himself.

"Wen Xiu is an indispensable part, and I can't find another person who can replace him. And you also know the value he brings after becoming an undercover agent. If it weren't for him, I'm afraid many people in the magic world would have lost their families in the past two years."

Thinking of her brother who nearly died, Professor McGonagall's eyes flickered, and she couldn't stop feeling scared in her heart.

Noticing her expression, Dumbledore continued, "Given their relationship with Wen Xiu, even if they don't join the Order of the Phoenix, they will still stand against that person in the future. Moreover, they all know about the cooperative relationship between Wen Xiu and the Order of the Phoenix. Instead of letting them fight against that person and his forces alone, it is better to invite them to join the Order of the Phoenix after graduation, which can also better protect their safety."

The blocked portraits only show the two people's mouths opening and closing and their expressions changing.

There were one or two impatient people who would jump out of the picture frame to listen to what the two people were saying, which could bring so many expressions to the face of the serious Professor McGonagall.

After Professor McGonagall left, Dumbledore removed the shielding spell, and the curious portraits gathered together to ask their questions.

Dumbledore, who was forced to endure a wave of noise attacks, drank a sip of red tea and said calmly, "Nothing much, just some things about the study of the little wizards."

This sounded like a perfunctory excuse, so of course the portraits didn't believe it.

But Dumbledore refused to say a word, and they couldn't get any information. They could only gather together and make blatant "secret" guesses.

After dinner, everyone except Regulus gathered at the door of the principal's office, looking at each other, but no one spoke first.

Sirius and Severus were separated by Lily and James, and there was only disgust and hatred for each other in their eyes.

Patting Sirius on the shoulder to signal him to control his emotions, Remus stepped forward and gave the password to the principal's office.

Several people climbed up the spiral staircase, and the door of the principal's office automatically opened a crack after everyone came up.

Little Batty was the first to reach out and open the door, and a kind and old voice came from inside the door.

"You guys are here, take a seat."

An equal number of teacups had been placed on the table in the middle of the headmaster's office. Everyone filed in, and Dumbledore waved his wand to levitate the teapot.

"How would you like pumpkin juice or black tea?"

"Black tea, thank you." Not understanding Dumbledore's purpose, Severus walked towards the sofa without changing his expression, greeted the old man politely, and sat down in the single seat.

As early as after knowing that Vince Lord had reached a cooperation with Dumbledore, Barty Jr. had no good feelings towards Dumbledore.

Now hearing what he said, her eyes fell on the short-haired old man beside him. She looked him over several times before bowing and greeting him.

"Good morning, Headmaster Dumbledore, and good morning, sir. I only drink water at night."

The short-haired old man raised his eyebrows and took a sip of red tea, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes amid his curiosity towards little Barty.

The two teenagers' attitude towards him was obviously rejecting, but Dumbledore did not feel offended. He smiled and poured a glass of water and tea for them.

His friendly attitude made Lily and the others, who were originally a little reserved, relax a lot.

The little fanboy James Potter looked at Dumbledore with admiration, staring at him so hard that the long-haired old man could hardly keep the smile on his face.

Grindelwald coughed lightly a few times to attract the attention of several young wizards present, including James Potter.

Severus, who had been drinking tea in silence the whole time, looked up when he heard the voice.

Feeling the atmosphere between Grindelwald and Dumbledore, his heart skipped a beat. He stared at the two of them with his dark eyes and had an outrageous guess in his mind.

This time, both of them were targeted together. Dumbledore and Grindelwald were both very smart even though they were not old. How could they not see the deeper meaning in Severus' gaze?

His old face turned red, and Dumbledore cursed in his heart Wenxiu Lord who dared to say anything. He picked up the teacup and took a sip with a calm appearance.

"I called you guys here today to ask if you would like to join the Order of the Phoenix after graduation."
