Severus was horrified, the news was so shocking that his expression froze for a moment.

"Didn't you swear that the Philosopher's Stone will never be taken by anyone?"

Dumbledore's eyes were slightly focused, and through the half-moon-shaped lens, he seemed preoccupied: "The mechanism I set on the Mirror of Erised, I was sure that no one but Harry could crack it. It's just that I didn't expect... ..."

Severus said coldly: "You didn't think of any use now? The Philosopher's Stone has been stolen! Do you know who did it?"

Dumbledore's expression became more solemn: "From what you said, it seems that Quirrell didn't make any movement last night?"

"Obviously!" Severus frowned, and the vertical line between his brows was like a deep groove: "You're asking that, it seems you don't have a clue?"

Dumbledore was silent for a moment, and said in a heavy voice: "Judging from the traces left so far, the other party is a master of magic circles, and should have very high achievements in alchemy—"

Hearing this, Severus was a little angry: "Such a person is obviously impossible to be a student. How did he get into Hogwarts? What exactly are you, the headmaster, doing?"

Dumbledore stared at the lemon honey tea in front of him, his eyes were extremely sharp: "This is the truly terrifying existence in this matter."

If the Philosopher's Stone was taken by Voldemort, he would just be ready to fight Voldemort to the end - anyway, he had been doing this kind of preparation since ten years ago.

However, now the person who stole the Philosopher's Stone was able to avoid the monitoring and induction of Hogwarts by the headmaster, and sneaked into Hogwarts without a sound. Ambition, or wanting to do something bad to the students, he has no room to react at all!

What Dumbledore was worried about, Severus also figured it out in an instant.

He stared at Dumbledore, with obvious anger in his dark eyes: "You, the headmaster of Hogwarts, didn't even have any sense? I didn't agree with you bringing the Philosopher's Stone back to Hogwarts! Damn it, your brain has been salted with sugar, it’s like exchanging brains with a troll, and we are going crazy with you!!”

Severus took a deep breath, restrained his emotions, and said expressionlessly: "You can only hope now that the other party's goal is the Philosopher's Stone, not anything else. Otherwise, how would you face Hogg? All the students of Wazley!"

Dumbledore took off his glasses, raised his right hand, and rubbed the center of his brows. The old man with white beard and hair was exhausted at this moment: "I'm too confident in myself... I thought that as long as I was in Hogwarts, I would You can control all the dangers to a manageable level—I didn’t expect to attract a master alchemist."

Severus looked at the tired and aged old wizard in front of him, no matter how much anger he had in his heart, he couldn't express it: "It's no use blaming yourself now! If the thing on your neck hasn't been sugared Corrosion, you should know, now the first thing to do is to find this person."

Dumbledore put on his half-moon glasses, recalled what he had found in the agencies at the end of the corridor on the fourth floor, and said, "Severus, whoever went to the fourth floor to steal the Philosopher's Stone yesterday, among them One of them should be our student."

Severus didn't speak, and continued to hear what the century-old wizard said: "First of all, this person can sneak in quietly. He is capable enough to avoid my monitoring spell and break through alone. But, However, he used a special magic circle to delay the fluctuation of magic. It can be seen that he did not go alone, but also brought a person with weak magic ability. Secondly, the chessboard array set up by Minerva activated two times - we must admit that Minerva's chessboard is a very interesting game - it is obvious that one of them likes this game and actually plays it again - it is probably a child ... We must Find this kid!"

Dumbledore sighed a little: "The reason why I have confidence in the organ that hides the Sorcerer's Stone is because the Mirror of Erised can truly see through people's hearts. The cracking method I set up is 'know the Sorcerer's Stone, want to find the Sorcerer's Stone, but Without any intention of taking advantage', I thought this person would be Harry. It seems that there are other children who can figure out the answer without our step-by-step prompts, and have no ambition to get the Philosopher's Stone."

"Yeah!" Severus sneered: "Not only did you deliberate the answer, but you also provoked a powerful wizard who made you unaware! You really can't guess who this wizard is? You can do this Wizards, there are not many wizards in the entire wizarding world."

Dumbledore's eyes moved slightly, as if thinking of something, but in the end he shook his head: "As you said, there are not many people in the entire wizarding world who can do this. And the few people I know, they all Not doing that!"

Dumbledore's eyes flickered, and Severus saw it too, but he didn't care about Dumbledore's thoughtfulness, what he cared about now was that there are more than 900 students in Hogwarts, how can we Find that one kid.

"More than 900 children, looking for it without a clue. When and what month do you want to find? If the other party really wants to do any harm to Hogwarts, then they can only wait."

Dumbledore thought for a moment, and then said: "We can focus on Slytherin and Ravenclaw. I have to admit that only students from these two colleges can deduce that the Sorcerer's Stone is in Hogwarts. "

Severus was stunned for a moment, he couldn't tell what it was like, and said bitterly, "You actually believe that among the Slytherin students, there are some who don't have the ambition to get the Philosopher's Stone?"

Dumbledore was also stunned for a moment, and then smiled wryly: "Slytherin students have too many shoulders behind them. What they do may not be in line with their original intentions, so I will..." Dumbledore concealed Put down words that both of them knew well, and continued: "This time it's about the heart, so I trust them."

Severus was silent for a while, and then said: "I don't think the Slytherins will be happy about your words."

Dumbledore sighed: "You pay attention to the Slytherin students. My name is Filius (Head of Ravenclaw) to pay attention to the Ravenclaw students."

Severus nodded, seeing that Dumbledore had nothing to say, he got up, turned around, and was about to leave.

When he walked to the door, Dumbledore's voice reached his ears softly: "Severus, I may have been prejudiced against Slytherin before. But, because of you, I am gradually correcting my Opinion - I'm sorry for the prejudice and the hurt caused..."

Severus stopped in his footsteps, and within a split second, he quickly left without looking back, leaving only a figure in billowing robes.

Andrea and Draco didn't know that Dumbledore and Severus had such a conversation.

They were discussing when to send the Philosopher's Stone back to Nico Flamel.

Andrea didn't understand: "Isn't it good to send it back now? Anyway, both early and late postings have to be sent. What's the difference?"

Of course there is a difference.

Now send it back to Nicole Flamel, maybe, that 600-year-old man will lend his Philosopher's Stone back to Dumbledore, let Dumbledore continue his savior training program, and then send Ben The House Cup that Leitlin got was given to Gryffindor.

But, can Draco say that?Of course not.

So he curved to save the country: "Even if we don't want such a rare thing as the Philosopher's Stone, let me study it for a few days, let me satisfy my curiosity?"

Naturally, Andrea would not have any objection to this reason, so she gave the Philosopher's Stone directly to Draco, and only said: "After the research, remember to send it back to Master Nicole Flamel."

Draco took the Philosopher's Stone: "Are you not afraid that I will swallow it privately?"

"I believe in you!" Andrea looked at Draco with a smile, her gray eyes were full of trust.

Draco's heart was soft, he pinched the platinum girl's nose, and said with a smile, "I'll send it back soon."

— as soon as Dumbledore lifted the ban at the end of the corridor on the fourth floor, he would send it.
