Chapter 44 I Have Never Seen Such a Shameless Little Wizard

"Of course I know that some magic is dangerous."

Andy scratched his head and laughed, "I just came here tonight to check it out. I didn't plan to read any books. I haven't finished reading the books outside, so how can I think about the books in the forbidden area?"

Speaking of this, Andy suddenly realized that tonight might be an opportunity.

The white-bearded old man in front of him is the ceiling of the magic world. Even if he sneaked a peek at hundreds of banned books, he might not gain as much as the casual pointers from the man in front of him.

"The principal's office seems to be on the eighth floor, right? Principal, do you want to go back together? We're on the way."

Andy said with a smug face, "If you meet the professor on night patrol on the way...Principal, you can help me speak for you."

Dumbledore: "..."

Dumbledore has been teaching for nearly a hundred years, and this is the first time he has encountered a shameless little wizard like Andy.

The little wizard was caught alive by the principal on the night tour, but he was not afraid. He also invited the principal to join him for a night tour.

"That's perfect. I think it's time to go to bed." Dumbledore said with a smile.

Andy also smiled, "Principal, you are old, you should pay attention to going to bed early and getting up early, so that your body can be healthy. Only if you are healthy, you can live a hundred years."

"Oh? Is that so?"

Dumbledore looked at Andy and blinked, "I am exactly 110 years old this year, and it seems that my body is still healthy."

Andy swallowed.

This topic can't be discussed anymore.

"Do you have any secrets? How do you take care of your body? My grandfather and grandmother are very old, and I hope they can live as long as you."

Andy asked seriously, "I noticed that wizards usually live longer than Muggles. I heard that Muggles have to retire in their sixties, but you are still working at the age of more than 100, which is really admirable."

Dumbledore also felt that there was no topic to talk about tonight.

"This may be related to my preference for sweets." Dumbledore began to talk nonsense.

As they talked, the two walked out of the library. Dumbledore locked the door and continued, "Of course, you have to maintain a good attitude."

"I think your attitude is pretty good."

Andy flattered him and got straight to the point, "Principal, is the secret of wizards' longevity related to magic?"

"Collins, I often tell people that death is just another great adventure."

Dumbledore glanced at Andy and said as he walked, "Wizards don't live longer than Muggles, but magic does make our bodies look healthier."

Look?

Andy understood a little.

"Principal, you don't seem to be afraid of death?" Andy asked.

"I'm ready for another great adventure at any time."

Dumbledore said calmly, but then changed the subject and said, "I thought you wouldn't think about death at your age."

"Everyone will die. I don't think this is a topic that needs to be avoided."

Andy spread his hands and said indifferently, "But I'm different from you. I don't like adventures."

Dumbledore smiled meaningfully, "Ah! I've already seen that."

Andy's face darkened when he heard this, "Can you keep it a secret for me?"

It does seem a bit silly to jump back and forth in the restricted book area.

No longer talking about the topic of death, Dumbledore asked casually, "Do you like magic?"

"Of course, I think magic is magical."

Speaking of magic, Andy immediately became energetic, "And there are still many unsolved mysteries in magic, such as: What is the origin and essence of magic? Why can magic do those magical things? What is the upper limit of magic? Why can we use magic..."

Andy wants to know too much, and there are too many unsolved mysteries in magic waiting for Andy to explore.

"Okay, okay!"

Dumbledore had a headache, "If you keep asking, it will be dawn."

"Uh!" Andy scratched his head.

Dumbledore continued, "I'm afraid you need to explore these questions one by one."

"You don't know?" Andy was a little puzzled.

"Some I know, some I don't, and some I only know half of."

Dumbledore shook his head, "These questions are too far away for you. But it happens that you are young now, and you still have enough time to find the answers to the questions."

As they spoke, the two had already arrived on the eighth floor.

Andy pushed further, "Principal, the night is long and I don't want to sleep. Why don't we go to the astronomy tower to see the moon? The moon is full tonight, we can talk about life and ideals."

Dumbledore: "..."

"When people get old, their bodies are not as good as before."

Dumbledore hammered his old waist, "If you want to see the moon, you might as well call your girlfriend. What's the point of an old man like me?"

Andy sighed.

I feel disgusted too, but you are knowledgeable!

In the end, Andy still couldn't watch the moon with Dumbledore. Dumbledore returned to the headmaster's office, and Andy returned to the Ravenclaw dormitory.

Dumbledore never mentioned the deduction from the beginning to the end.

Andy didn't care about the deduction, and Dumbledore knew that Andy didn't care about the deduction.

The deduction system of Hogwarts is to punish those little wizards who make mistakes. Since Andy doesn't care about the deduction, then this so-called punishment is naturally meaningless.

Lying on the bed, Andy recalled what happened tonight.

The restricted book area of ​​the library was indeed blocked by only a rope. There was no protective magic on the rope, but there was warning magic.

As long as someone crossed the rope, Dumbledore would know.

The significance of doing this was naturally to allow those young wizards who wanted to improve themselves to learn more advanced magic.

As for the conversation with Dumbledore...

Those conversations seemed to be just casual chats, but Andy felt that he had gained a lot.

Especially about the life span of wizards.

Dumbledore said that wizards do not live longer than Muggles, but magic can make wizards look healthier.

If we extend this topic.

The young wizard can make his wishes come true when his magic bursts out - then does this so-called wish come true include preventing aging?

Andy thinks it should be like this.

It's just that when the wizard is over eleven years old, his magic will gradually stabilize.

And stable magic obviously no longer has the ability to make wishes come true. But it can still make the wizard's body "look" healthier.

In addition, although Dumbledore did not answer Andy's many questions, he let Andy find them himself.

He said that he knew some, didn't know some, and had only a vague understanding of some questions.

But this undoubtedly shows one thing, that some questions have answers!
