The Bard at Hogwarts

Level 1, Ministry of Magic, England.

This floor contains the offices of all senior officials, including ministers.

The floor of the entire floor is covered with gorgeous and exquisite Turkish cashmere carpets, which seems to be the only way to protect the officials in the office from being disturbed by the footsteps in the corridor.

Deep in the corridor, the minister's office.

Fudge was not surprised by Dumbledore's arrival.

What really surprised him was that two staff members from the Department of Magical Accidents and Disasters brought Harry to the Ministry of Magic yesterday.

"Although it's not a big deal, the people need an explanation!"

Fudge glanced at Dumbledore in confusion.

The Dementor incident last year, whether it was the public opinion war in the newspapers or the invisible power struggle in the Ministry of Magic, made him see the influence of the elderly principal.

Therefore, he was waiting for Dumbledore to plead, so that it could be published in tomorrow's newspaper and further weaken the other party's prestige.

"This is different." Dumbledore looked at Fudge calmly.

"Not only is it different from the past, it will even contact Voldemort..."

"That's enough! Don't mention that name! He's dead." Fudge interrupted rudely, looking a little stressed.

"That person is dead! He has been dead for more than ten years!"

Facing the hysterical Fudge, Dumbledore said nothing. He knew very well that some people were like birds and snakes in danger, and would only shrink themselves into a small teacup.

"You can take that child away now! Tell him to either learn to be calm or smart in the future! Don't embarrass us all like today."

Fudge waved his hand a little irritably, picking up people as they came, talking about things from more than ten years ago, which made him recall those crazy dark years again.

"Connelly, there are some things that you can't just pretend you don't see and everything will be fine."

Before going out, Dumbledore said something pointedly.

…

Hogsmeade.

Ino opened the door on the first floor. He was a little surprised when two figures, an old man and a young man, were outside the door.

"Um...Long time no see, Professor Dumbledore, and Harry."

"Sorry, Ino! I disturbed you! But I can't think of a better way in a short time."

Dumbledore looked troubled.

"How could it be! It's an honor for me to have your visit! Besides, Harry and I are also friends!"

While talking, Ino opened the door and let the two of them walk into the living room.

"You should have read today's newspaper!" After sitting down, Dumbledore went straight to the topic:

"Ino, everything in the newspaper is true. That's why I came to you! Do you remember the Mirror of Erised?"

"Of course! And I've used it up. I planned to send it back to you when school starts."

Although he didn't quite understand the connection between the two, Ino nodded and took over the topic. After all, the mirror belonged to Hogwarts.

"This has nothing to do with the mirror. I want to say that it was frozen at that time..."

Dumbledore told the cause of the matter tactfully. The moment he saw Harry at the Ministry of Magic, he had already discovered the cause of the problem.

The worst outcome occurred, and Harry was made into a living Horcrux by Voldemort.

After some careful recollection with the help of the Pensieve, he had to admit that that night in Godric's Hollow did meet the conditions for a Horcrux.

Fortunately, Voldemort doesn't know this yet.

…

at the same time.

As Dumbledore explained, Ino gradually understood the purpose of their visit.

"Professor! Frost can indeed prevent prying minds, but I'm not sure if it will be useful for other people."

Although it was a bit surprising that Dumbledore could still think of this.

But Ino still looked at Harry apologetically and gave him a helpless look.

"If possible, I suggest that Harry learn Occlumency. This magic can theoretically prevent...well, prevent some bad emotions."

As Eno finished speaking, a glimmer of light flashed in Dumbledore's eyes, but it quickly disappeared.

"You're right, the best way is to learn Occlumency, and this takes time, but I'm not sure how much time..."

Dumbledore didn't finish his words, but his meaning was clearly expressed.

I hope that Harry can be protected as much as possible while he is learning magic.

“Then give it a try, because I really don’t know if it’ll work.”

Ino looked at Harry again, and the latter showed a shy smile.

"Try it! If it doesn't work, I'll think of other ways." Dumbledore also knew that some things in the magical world were indeed unique.

After asking for permission, Ino pointed at the coffee table.

At the same time, a small frost-condensed house also rose around Harry.

It is a cube about two meters in diameter and about an inch thick. The light blue translucent frost does not affect the internal and external sight at all.

After doing all this, Ino did not use Legilimency rashly, but turned to look at Dumbledore aside. After all, this magic was indeed an invasion of privacy.

Dumbledore seemed to have the same idea, and instead of using Legilimency, he held the Elder Wand and pointed at the igloo that enveloped Harry.

After a while.

"It works!" Dumbledore smiled, as if the fatigue of the whole day had dissipated.

"It seems that Harry needs your help! But during this time, I will arrange an excellent professor for him to teach him how to learn brain occlusion."

"It's nothing!" Ino nodded indifferently.

It was a piece of cake, and today's incident also made him discover the hidden effect of ice and snow magic, which was an unexpected gain.

...

And just as they were talking, the door of the cottage was knocked again.

Although it was a bit unexpected that there were so many visitors today, Ino still stood up to open the door.

When he opened the door, a touch of black came into view.

"Good morning! Professor Snape." Ino greeted with a chuckle.

Unexpectedly and reasonably, in fact, the person who cares most about Harry in the entire British magic world is the one in front of him.

"Yeah." Snape nodded slightly, and then walked into the room quickly.

This time, Ino did not come close.

Quietly opening a can of ice-cold butter beer, he planned to stand aside at this moment and appreciate the passionate performance of three generations of old, middle-aged and young people.

After all, Voldemort is no longer a threat to him, so he can deal with some things with a relaxed attitude.
