Chapter 902 ?
In the cave, Harry was finally released from his petrified state. He got up stiffly and came to Dumbledore to check his status.
Dumbledore had stopped trembling, but lay limp in the filth on the ground.
"Don't worry, Professor." Harry hurriedly cleaned up Dumbledore. Seeing Dumbledore's extremely pale face and exhausted appearance, he felt sad and helped Dumbledore up. "We will go back, Lean on me."
"Harry, go and see if the Horcrux is still there." Dumbledore said briefly while lying on the ground. These few words seemed to have cost him a lot of effort—after the poison he had just taken worked. , realized that Voldemort's trap had been replaced by someone else, but since Harry tried so hard to fulfill his promise to himself... Dumbledore couldn't tell Harry the truth anymore.
"It's strange that these two Death Eaters didn't take Voldemort's Horcrux." Harry wanted to pick up the Horcrux in the crystal stone basin.
"Harry, don't touch it! Help me over, let me come." Dumbledore stopped deeply.
The white wizard's eyes flashed. Although those two people were dressed as Death Eaters, they were definitely not Death Eaters. They didn't care about Horcruxes, and Tom would never easily tell his subordinates where the Horcruxes were stored. But in order to be careful, Dumbledore stopped Harry with a voice.
Harry was so startled that he quickly retracted his hand. He walked over and began to support his headmaster. Dumbledore couldn't help but feel hot when he saw the big puddle of paste on the ground. He smiled self-deprecatingly : "Sorry, Harry, I promise I'll never eat a marzipan again..."
"Don't worry about the professor, I've seen similar situations several times in the past few years." Harry pushed his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and he was a little embarrassed for his recklessness, "Professor, you lean on this crystal first." On the stone platform." Harry supported Dumbledore to lean on the stone platform, made him stabilize his figure, and then began to clean up his headmaster.
"Harry, please lend me your wand for a while..." Dumbledore took a deep breath, took the wand from Harry with one hand, and put the other hand on the stone platform, The wand clicked the locket open.
The cave was so quiet that Harry's own rapid breathing could be heard. He looked at the locket warily, but after a while, nothing happened.
"Harry, help me open it." Dumbledore's expression was not happy because the locket had no traps, on the contrary, he looked a little disappointed.
After receiving the potion handed back by Dumbledore, Harry put the locket back in front of him. He lowered his head and realized that something was wrong. Inside the locket was tightly stuffed sheepskin folded into thick squares in the place where the portrait was placed. The paper, Harry quickly took out the parchment and read the contents inside with the help of the fluorescent light emitted by the wand.
The first thing Harry opened was the parchment on which Sirius had cursed Voldemort written all over it, and after reading a few lines, he couldn't read any further.
Harry quickly scanned the entire parchment, "Professor, this entire piece of paper is full of insults to You-Know-Who... and it all rhymes."
Dumbledore pressed the crystal stone platform with his hand, and leaned forward slightly: "Harry, look at the other one."
Hearing this, Harry quickly opened another piece of parchment, and read out the note Regulus had written to Voldemort.
"Who is R.A.B.?" Harry couldn't help asking after reading the signature.
"R.A.B." Dumbledore was deep in thought, tapping his fingers lightly on the crystal stone platform, "Well... In my impression,
One person to match him with is Regulus Arcturus Black, brother of your godfather Sirius, who was also a Death Eater and disappeared many years ago. "
"Sirius' brother!" Harry thought of the way Sirius introduced his brother to himself in front of the Black family tapestry, turned his head suddenly, and asked Dumbledore, "Professor, can I tell Sirius about this?" ?… Regulus is a hero."
"No, Harry, it's a pity that we can't do this for the time being...Harry, it's not appropriate for us to let other people know the truth now, because Tom will also know that we are looking for a way to destroy him..." Dumbledore sighed , "There has been no news of Regulus for so many years. It is a pity that it has been bad luck. Although he was the first to join the Death Eaters, he has never done any bad deeds, and he To be able to finally realize that his beliefs were wrong, even risking his life to fight Voldemort, in this regard. He was a very brave and fearless wizard... We will restore his due honor someday, but not today... "
"I see, Professor," said Harry, who was worried that Dumbledore's voice had become so slurred. "Professor, stop talking now and save your energy."
"I'm a little weak, but I'm fine..." Dumbledore held out his hand, "Harry, lend me your wand again."
Harry hastily handed his wand to Dumbledore's hand again. Dumbledore braced his weak body and cast 'Whirlwind Sweep'. With Dumbledore's magic power, the filth on the ground quickly disappeared. If it weren't for the residual smell in the air, it would be hard to imagine what happened here just now.
"Okay, Harry, let's go back." Dumbledore held out his hand to Harry, "It seems that those things in the water won't really attack us."
Seeing Dumbledore so weak, Harry squeezed the locket tightly in his hand, feeling very sad. Dumbledore drank the terrible potion, suffered so many sins in vain, and lost his own. Wand... Harry crumpled up the parchment in his palm, pulled himself together, and led Dumbledore out of the cave.
In the cave under the Black Lake in Hogwarts, Alan, who had recovered his original appearance, finally stopped trembling and hallucinations. It took him a while to sit up from the ground and found that Luna was Collapsing on the ground next to the chair she conjured up earlier, it seems that she has not fully recovered from the effects of the medicine - the sip just now made the crazy girl much more than he who only took a sip.
Allen shook his trembling hands to relax the tense nerves in his hands, then he held the Coke bottle, placed it firmly between his legs, and gently unscrewed the lid a crack, only to hear There was a long sound of "嗤", bubbles splashed, and the soda popped and crackled.
Allen took a few sips of the whole bottle of Coke for Luna, but only then did he discover another mistake—the bubbles brought about by carbon dioxide were not a good thing at this time, which prevented her from drinking in big gulps when she urgently needed to quench her thirst. Luna, who was still awake, was choked, and Alan, who was helpless and extremely thirsty, had to pull back the Coke with some difficulty, ignoring the flatulence, and drank happily one after another.
After a while, Luna finally woke up, and another large bottle of Coke on the table flew towards her in the air. She couldn't wait to unscrew the bottle cap, and with a bang, the foam and the drink rushed out together, soaking the robe on her body. But Luna completely ignored these, and directly picked up the Coke bottle and swallowed it in big mouthfuls, the spilled brown Coke flowed down her fair neck.
"I told you that this medicine is very effective, it's too unsafe..." Alan, who also suffered a while, let himself move over to help Luna up and the two sat on the ground to recover their strength, "It's always like this, One day it will suffer a lot.”
"What... hiccup!" Luna suddenly hiccupped like a toad using its abdominal cavity. Luna, who had never experienced such a feeling before, was taken aback. She and Alan's eyes collided. , Luna, who reacted, couldn't help laughing out loud, and Alan was also stunned for a while, and then covered his face with his hands to hold back the laugh, but finally he couldn't help but sneered.
After discovering the new toy, Luna held the Coke bottle and took another big sip. She suddenly raised her head and opened her mouth into a big O shape. hiccup. Like drums, loud and rhythmic.
The crazy girl seemed to be addicted to the game, she kept gulping down drinks, then nodded forward, her lips moistened by Coke were wide and round, and she made a voice like a frog, "Muggle inventions are really amazing!" Interesting."
The two laughed more and more wantonly. After the torture just passed, the comfort brought by Coke reminded the two of them that they really felt so much fun.
"So what does it matter to you? You will suffer then." Luna took a big sip of Coca-Cola and said in a hiccupping manner. The voice was a bit fuzzy, and it sounded completely different from the past, with a somewhat metallic sound. Timbre, "Isn't it more interesting to drink a delicious Coke after taking a nasty potion... hiccup...?"
The two looked at each other, and Allen suddenly picked up the Coke bottle and took a big sip of the drink, imitating Luna's expression and movements, and let out a long hiccup, and uncontrollable laughter came from the mouths of Allen and Luna. In and out.
