Ravenclaw's Sapphire

Chapter 29 All right, I'm done digging

"Harry!" Mrs. Weasley was the first to see Harry, and ran over to hug him in surprise, "Thank God, you and Ron are safe!"

She poked her husband's waist hard, and glared at him when he was in pain.Mr. Weasley rubbed his sore waist bitterly, and showed a warm smile when he looked at Harry: "Harry! We rushed over after receiving Dumbledore's letter, and I'm proud of you. "

Mrs. Weasley was very dissatisfied with his tone, and she looked at Harry sternly: "You almost lost your life! You must remember to cherish yourself and don't let those who love you worry, Harry."

"While you are having some boring interactions, can I go in and see Zoe first?" Lucius said impatiently, "You wrote to tell me that Zoe was injured, what's going on!" His voice With obvious anger, "I don't want an old fool who can't protect children to stay in this position."

Harry clenched his fists. He thought Lucius was trying to shirk responsibility - he was the one who signed Dumbledore out of office and now pretended to be innocent.Lucius caught his gaze and shot him a contemptuous glance.

Dumbledore's eyes flickered behind his glasses, and he apologized to Mr and Mrs Weasley, saying he wanted to speak to Lucius alone and let them go to Ron first - he had had the bad luck of getting a stone on his skin, Madam Pomfrey let him bandage himself at the other end of the infirmary, since it wasn't a serious injury and she was too busy.

When the Weasleys disappeared behind the door, Harry also consciously wanted to leave, because he felt that he was also an irrelevant person.Dumbledore held him back and said he hoped he would come too.

*****

The three came to Dumbledore's office, and Harry was glad that nothing had changed: Voldemort was gone, Dumbledore was back, but he couldn't help being hostile to Lucius.The man walked into the office slowly and looked at the layout of the room with critical eyes.When he saw Fox on the shelf, he froze for a moment, quickly retracted his gaze, and put on a smelly and arrogant face again.

"My time is precious, you better have a good reason, Dumbledore." Lucius said very rudely to Dumbledore.

"I think you need to know one thing, Malfoy." Dumbledore sat down, "Until yesterday, I was signed by the board of directors of Hogwarts, requesting that I be kicked out of the castle and never As the headmaster of Hogwarts."

Lucius' eyebrows moved. Although he quickly regained his composure, he was obviously surprised and a little annoyed by this: "What? I thought that only when all thirteen school directors signed it would they be eligible to cancel Hogwarts Here is the position of the headmaster. I have not received any notice from any family, and they cannot bypass our Malfoy family to make such a bold decision."

Harry was stunned by his shamelessness and acting skills, and shouted: "You are playing stupid! You are the one who planned to make Dumbledore resign!"

"Even if you're the so-called 'Boy Who Lived', Mr. Potter." Lucius turned his attention to the aggrieved boy, with a cold smile on his lips, and he warned, "Perhaps the adults around you It gives you the illusion that you can do whatever you want, but Malfoy will not let this slander go, and I have no reason to attack Dumbledore. If you don't take back your..."

At this moment Dumbledore interrupted him, and he smiled, as if everything was under his control: "Malfoy, I have to tell you that there are at least four witnesses who can prove that you were there at the time, and that what Harry said It's not a false lie - thank you for speaking up for me, Harry - and that includes the Minister for Magic, Cornelius Fudge."

Harry stepped aside angrily, Lucius frowned, and said sharply: "This is impossible, why should I dismiss your position, only if you are still sitting in this position, can Zooey go to school here smoothly I promised that as long as you didn't betray me, I would not oppose you in the school council. I have always kept my promise, but now you have found a brat to accuse me, Dumbledore, what do you want to do!"

His words didn't sound like fakery at all, but a genuinely offended anger.Lucius' eyes flickered with anger until Dumbledore produced a roll of parchment and handed it to him.He opened it suspiciously, scanned the content, and his face changed drastically.Suspicion and fear suddenly occupied that slender face.

Lucius put his face on the parchment and checked the signatures on it over and over again. The signatures of the thirteen school managers shone darkly under the power of the oath spell. That name, and the infallible Malfoy family seal on it, were like indelible evidence that Harry's words were true.

"Is there anything else you want to deny, Mr. Malfoy?" Harry's sarcastic words brought Lucius back from his blank thoughts.Lucius' hand holding the parchment trembled slightly, and the side of the parchment was almost crushed into a mess by him.His face was as white as paper, and all the blood faded away

Dumbledore stopped the excited Harry, he looked at Lucius, but didn't speak, just let Lucius' face change again and again.Lucius' lips trembled, and it took him a long time to utter a word: "This is... what's going on?"

"Has the Malfoy house been burglarized?" asked Dumbledore.

"Impossible, the seal has always been on me, and only the name written by myself will be affected by the contract." Lucius' forehead was sweating, "It can only be done by me. But I have no relevant memories at all. No."

Dumbledore looked at him like a reminder: "Have you received anyone recently?"

"People? No... Due to the threat of the Chamber of Secrets, not many people came to this year's banquet, everyone was in danger, and later even pure blood was injured, although Lovegood and Weasley are no different, they are both freaks ..." Lucius showed a contemptuous expression.

"I don't believe him, Professor Dumbledore! He just wants to shirk responsibility, and he even framed Hagrid!"

"Framed?" Lucius looked at Harry oddly, then smiled, "That's not framed, Potter. Rubeus Hagrid was expelled from Hogwarts 50 years ago because his monster was injured." Man... huh, I heard you got close with that big guy, don't you think he's aggressive at times? Likes monsters, breeds monsters, and that man is a humanoid troll."

Harry's face was flushed, he felt the anger rushing in his chest, he couldn't stand Hagrid being belittled, but he was still restraining himself.Until Dumbledore said leisurely: "Regarding this matter, even if you wanted to protect someone, you did frame an innocent person, Malfoy. You have power in the Ministry of Magic, so you secretly guide those dissatisfied using Connelly's weakness, to threaten him to arrest Hagrid so that some people's mouths can be gagged." Dumbledore said seriously, "You heard something about the past from someone, and you thought you could Use it. Do you still remember this thing?"

What he took out made Lucius' face change drastically.Lucius rushed over, his eyeballs were protruding across the table.

"Tell me! Why do you own this thing...it, it belongs to..." He snatched the punctured diary, checked it over and over again, his eyelids twitched, if he heard that Dumbledore had When he was dismissed because of the reason, he just noticed that something was wrong, and at this time he really smelled a conspiracy.

"Yes, something your master gave you, an item from Voldemort's youth. You have been keeping it for him, and now it appears at Hogwarts, manipulating innocent students to open the Chamber of Secrets, and trying to rise again." Harry Rarely seeing Dumbledore's aggressive side, Lucius pursed his lips and said nothing.

"Tell me where you put your diary."

"I keep it at home! It's always been there!" Lucius yelled in horror. "It should have been hidden by me, no one would know! Do you think I'm going to run around with the Dark Lord's stuff? Let Who committed crimes at Hogwarts? Zoe will be suspected, and she will be the first to be suspected! I must keep Max's child, I swore it!"

Harry was dumbfounded, the development in front of him was too unexpected, Lucius owned the diary, but his attitude was completely real, Harry never felt that he did those things, he was like any scared child Injured father, Harry looked to Dumbledore beggingly for his explanation.

Dumbledore took out his wand, stuck his temple between the sticks, and drew two circles with the wand, Harry quickly looked at the other party, and found that his face was very frightening, that kind of feeling that after realizing what happened, he completely A dull expression.

But why Dumbledore didn't speak, Harry couldn't understand what they were playing.Dumbledore caught his gaze and said to him, "Harry, I have something to talk to Malfoy, can you please go out first?" His voice was clearly unquestionable.

"But, professor..."

"Please close the door, Harry." Dumbledore eased his tone, "Sorry, Harry. But there are some things you don't need to know right now."
