Rubbing, "Gellert, it would be for the greater good...①" His fingers slid across the pattern on the photo frame, and then with a burst of space distortion, Dumbledore's figure disappeared from the office...

Germany, Nurmengard.

This place is still widely known in the past and now. In the past, it was because of its owner, but now it is because of the people imprisoned in it, and they are actually one person, that is, the first generation of Dark Lord and the most famous dark wizard Geller in German history. Grindelwald.Although now, after nearly 30 years of his will being imprisoned in a cage, the ambitious leader of the past can only succumb to fate and become the decadent old man he is today.

As the designer of this famous prison, the castle obviously couldn't trap the all-powerful Dark Lord, but Grindelwald, who chose to self-exile, has been living alone on the top of the tower.Maybe he's waiting for something, maybe he's just mourning the old days.Today, though, a visitor is clearly destined to disrupt the tranquility of the past.

Opening the prison door, Dumbledore who was standing at the door suddenly didn't know what to say. After a long silence, he murmured: "Gellert..."

"Well, it's you, Albus." The old man sitting on the cold stone bed was so calm, just like the boy sitting in the shade of a tree decades ago, he said indifferently to the people who came in a hurry Said this sentence.Dumbledore, who didn't expect to meet again in such a scene, became insane for a moment, and took a long time to answer, "It's me, Gellert."

"Is there anything you can do with me?" The old man's voice was still calm, but the pupils that were looking directly at each other were so deep that it was impossible to explore.

This sentence seemed to have awakened Dumbledore, and he coughed lightly and returned to normal.He walked into the cell, glanced at the brand-new newspaper on the stone table without any trace, and said, "I think you should have heard of the organization Death Eaters?"

"Oh, do you want to ask their leader?" The old man's gaze became sharp for an instant, but then calmed down again the next moment, as if he wasn't the one who showed his sharpness just now.

Although sometimes the roundabout conversation makes people tired of coping, but sometimes the sarcasm that hits the center is also embarrassing. The old man's rhetorical question hits Dumbledore's heart, which makes him a little embarrassed.However, Dumbledore, who has been tried and tested in politics, didn't seem to understand the deep meaning of the old man's words, and continued: "Yes, I want to ask the leader of the Death Eaters."

The old man didn't seem surprised by this answer. He sat lazily on the bed, narrowed his eyes slightly, "What do you want to ask, tell me, I'll tell you what I know... what you want to hear is this answer."

"I just want to ask your opinion on his actions, Gellert." Dumbledore's pupils hidden behind the glasses became extremely sharp, "I think, as a leader, maybe you can see his actions The deep meaning in it."

"Could it be that the great white wizard Albus Dumbledore can't see through a 'child' who has even been his student?" The old man's tone was calm, but the bitter irony in his words pierced the other person's heart, "or , you think he will become the 'second me', so you think my senior can guess something?"

Dumbledore didn't answer anything, but said something completely irrelevant to the question: "It would be for the greater good, Gellert." The old man closed his eyes, seemed to be obsessed with the darkness at that moment, and said in a magnetic voice with deep meaning: "Yes, not only you but I thinkso... ③You're wrong, Albus. That 'child' is not at all like me, he sees things much more clearly than I do."

Grindelwald②

Hearing Grindelwald's words, Dumbledore frowned, listening to the other party's slow talk in silence.

The old man looked at Dumbledore, his blue pupils did not become cloudy due to the passage of time, but still exuded a light of wisdom and sensitivity, "You never see through that 'child', you think he is thinking deeply , That's right, but you underestimated him, the depth of his thoughts far exceeds your expectations, and his purpose and desire are not as simple as you think."

"Gellert, do you mean that I guessed his motive wrong?" Dumbledore held up his glasses to hide his thoughts.

The old man nodded, "I thought it was obvious." He tapped his knees with his fingers and narrowed his eyes slightly, "I think the reason why you intend to stop him is because you saw his ambition. Based on what I know about you, Albus, you have always been a suspicious person, so you will definitely pay more attention to him and even monitor him from the first moment you discover his ambition. Am I right?" He didn't look Dumbledore's reaction, although he hadn't seen him in decades, he knew Dumbledore too well, and he had absolute confidence in his speculation.

"I think about it, a child who came to the wizarding world from the Muggle world, entered the Slytherin full of nobles and pure-bloods as soon as he entered school, and was quickly recognized by those noble students and gained considerable power. Maybe he Very easy to learn, all the grades are exceptionally good, even the students in other colleges like him. Maybe it's too similar to my original performance, so you even position him as the successor of the Dark Lord, I guess no Wrong, Albus?"

Grindelwald's voice flowed softly into Dumbledore's ears, almost completely hitting his mind.For this lover who has turned against each other, even Dumbledore has to admit that the person who knows him best in this world is definitely Grindelwald, so he did not mean to deceive him at all, nodded and said: "Yes, you You're right, Gellert."

"So, you think he's bewitched by pure-bloodism, so you think he's gone down the same path as me. He's in the blood of Salazar Slytherin, the greatest of the Big Four, all the nobles They will all be attached to him because of this, so you are afraid that his power will occupy the whole of Britain and even Europe, and then launch activities bigger than my saints, and even intend to subvert the Muggle regime..." Speaking of this, Grindelwald took a deep breath In one breath, he spat out more intense words, "Unfortunately, you guessed his intention wrong from beginning to end!"

Hearing this, Dumbledore's eyes widened, staring closely at the old man in front of him, as if what he said was unbelievable.

The old man raised the corner of his mouth and showed a smug and sly smile, "I know something about him from the newspaper. Voldemort's original surname is not well-known, I guess his father is at most a mixed race, and from some of your Judging by the way he had a chaotic childhood, you would suspect that he hated Muggles. Judging from his actions, he was recognized by Slytherin House in his first year at school, and a few years later He became the leader of all the students in the school. After graduating from the school, he established the Death Eaters with his classmates, and quickly expanded its influence, and entered Hogwarts as a professor of defense against the dark arts in an attempt to gain more Lots of reserves. Maybe you infer from that his goals of something like 'cleaning up the lineage', but you're clearly ignoring some of his actions."

Grindelwald looked at Dumbledore on the opposite side and said, "Have you noticed the 'SL Innovative Experimental Project' and 'SH Entrepreneurship Foundation' jointly created by Slytherin, Ravenclaw, and Hufflepuff? "

"Of course, that 'child' was still studying at Hogwarts at that time, so he easily used these two things to bribe the students of Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff." Dumbledore looked at Green with some doubts Devore, "Is there anything wrong with that?"

"Your perspective is too shallow, Albus. Although you are very good at politics and strategy, you obviously don't understand the investment laws of nobles." Grindelwald gave a pungent comment quite directly. He looked at the iron The gray sky outside the window said: "Encouraging innovative experiments is to promote the birth of new things, and encouraging self-employment is to drive new things into the wizarding world. His move is quite clever, but it is only a few hundred Galleons a year, there are It may shake up the entire wizarding world and force the old and rotten wizards to undergo huge changes. As investors, the Slytherins, or now the Death Eaters will gain quite terrifying benefits and prestige from it. "

Looking back at Dumbledore's staring eyes, the old man went on to say: "Your opponent is very interesting. The 'glory theory' he promotes may seem to you to be advocating aristocratic things, but it is not. He encourages wizards to study hard. , Inherit the knowledge left by the predecessors, and create something of your own, and use it to gain glory. You can see his thoughts from the set he issued the order to print called "Behind Hogwarts Colleges."

Thinking of the set of books that still gave him a headache, Dumbledore couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, but the old man opposite him seemed quite happy because of his deflated performance. "I don't rule out that this set of books has a lot of things that discourage Gryffindor... However, anyone who studies this set of books carefully can find the implicit encouragement in his book. The book focuses on and is praised Who are people? They are all people who have brought great changes to the wizarding world, initiated innovations and changes, and made the wizarding world more upward. Isn't this a relatively obscure description?
