Chapter 131 Revisiting Old Things
Ada walked out from behind the door, wearing a fat hospital gown and a pair of slippers. Suddenly, Professor McGonagall felt like she had returned to the first time she met Ada. At that time Lady Mary was still alive, and Ada was only a twelve-year-old girl who had not yet come into contact with magic. In the past two years, Ada has grown into a witch who can stand alone.
"After I woke up, I didn't see Professor McGonagall, so I came out to take a look..." Ada said. The hospital gown has bonuses, so Ada's words actually sounded a bit pitiful.
Ada looks like a child who is sick but whose mother cannot be with her. But just such a weak-looking girl could do things that many adult wizards couldn't do.
The three people returned to the ward. Dumbledore waved his hand casually, and the ward immediately became quiet. Other patients would not disturb them, and their conversation would not be heard by anyone other than the three of them.
"Ada, please tell me in detail what happened, especially the process of your fight with them." Dumbledore conjured a chair. While talking to Ada, he selected Professor McGonagall to buy. snacks.
Sitting on the hospital bed, Ada thought about it carefully before recounting what happened today. During her retelling, Dumbledore would also ask some questions, such as asking her what she thought of Cecil and why she made such a choice in the battle. These are all questions of this type.
Dumbledore nodded and said, "Last year, I was amazed at your talent. I haven't seen anyone with such talent in many years."
Ada blushed for a rare moment after being praised. It wasn't that her skin became thinner, but that she felt deserved. Although she works hard enough, without the system by her side, it would be difficult for her to do what she is doing today, and her future will be clear at a glance.
"What she did wasn't good enough. She didn't handle things calmly enough. She did everything based on her own will. She was immature at all." Professor McGonagall seemed to be afraid that Ada's tail would rise to the sky, so she directly poured a basin of cold water on her. Pour Ada thoroughly to cool down.
Ada complained silently in her heart: I don’t know who took out the wand today when they disagreed with each other, and they were not calm at all. Of course, Ada could only beep in her mind. She didn't want to be turned into an alarm clock or a map by Professor McGonagall.
"There is no need to be too harsh, Ada still has time to continue learning and growing." Dumbledore said to Professor McGonagall with a smile, "Minerva, isn't this the meaning of our existence?"
"Also, after last year, I want to express my apology to Ada again. Glover is the teacher I hired against all odds. When I invited him, I should have considered his paranoia. Today What happened could have been avoided." Dumbledore continued.
"I remember when the school first started, many parents protested your decision, but you still insisted on keeping Professor Cecil." Although Cecil taught the students a lot of knowledge and his courses were also very interesting, but this will A former dark wizard was placed in the school, something Ada had never figured out.
"Remember what Welfare said last year?" Dumbledore continued without waiting for Ada to answer, "He is looking for something that can make Voldemort come back. Over the past year, I have been collecting information about this I need information about this item, and Grover is the helper I found."
None of the three people here hope that Voldemort will make a comeback and let a crazy person rule the world, which will ultimately only bring destruction to the world.
"Then have you found it?" Ada asked. There was no way to reconcile her and Voldemort, unless she could find a hiding place that no one could find and stay there for the rest of her life.
Dumbledore shook his head and said helplessly: "Since the day of magic, black magic has also been born, just like everything has two sides. After so many years of development, there are so many books and manuscripts recording black magic. I’ve only just got a clue, and I can’t yet confirm which method Voldemort used.”
The conversation between the three people continued. From Dumbledore's words, Ada learned that Dumbledore had made a lot of preparations to deal with the possible return of Voldemort. The information revealed in his words is only a small part of his grand plan, just the tip of the iceberg. Even if you are in the midst of the plan, you cannot understand the whole plan. Dumbledore may have been preparing for this huge plan since the day Voldemort fell. He just lacks the opportunity to start this plan now.
During the conversation, Professor McGonagall's attitude towards Ada was as always, with love hidden in the strictness. It did not change due to the change in Ada's strength. In her eyes, Ada was always a child who was not mature enough and needed her to be careful. To teach.
But Dumbledore's attitude has actually changed. At this time last year, Dumbledore only regarded Ada as a child, but this year he regarded Ada as an excellent wizard, and even more so. Pay attention to communication with Ada.
However, while chatting, Dumbledore and Ada got sidetracked, and the old and the young actually started arguing about the childish question of which sweets were the best! I don’t know if the two of them did it on purpose or if they were really out of shape.
"Sizzling Bee Sugar is the best dessert, you should try it." Dumbledore said, this is his favorite food recently, and he is a little obsessed with this sweet taste.
"Mrs. Weasley's fudge is the best. It's sweet but not greasy, and melts in your mouth." Ada said, "It's much better than the sizzling honey candies. It's so greasy that one's teeth will fall out!" After saying this, Ada was still staring at Dumbledore, as if she wanted to see if his teeth were still healthy.
"You are still young and have tried too few things before you think so. When you reach my age, you will understand. When it's your birthday, I can give you some as your birthday gift." Denbu Liduoyi said in a coquettish way that even when he was arguing with Ada, he still did not let go of the licorice wand that Professor McGonagall bought for Ada.
Ada didn't know how long Dumbledore lived, but she thought he must have been over a hundred years old. The worst thing is that the good times cannot be kept, and the beautiful beauty is in the mirror and the flowers are in the tree... Ada can't even imagine what she will look like when she is a hundred years old. By then, she will no longer have the courage to look in the mirror, and she will basically say goodbye to the mirror.
Ada's biological age is only fourteen years old, so she can give full play to the advantages of her younger age, which is the so-called cheating. Ada slapped the bed with her right hand (she didn't dare to use her left hand for fear of pain), and said shamelessly: "I don't care, I just think the candies made by Mrs. Weasley are the best!"
In fact, cheating is no longer suitable for the age of fourteen, but Professor McGonagall is very happy. She thinks that Ada still has a child side, which is a good thing.
Dumbledore said seriously: "You have the right to think that Mrs. Weasley's candies are the best, but I cannot agree with you because I have never eaten them."
Professor McGonagall looked at Dumbledore in disbelief, with the words "You lied" written in his eyes. He had obviously tried it before, but had given it to him with his own hands.
In first grade, Ada gave the professors toffee, which was made by Mrs. Weasley. Although Ada did not give it to Dumbledore at the time, McGonagall gave him what she received afterwards. If Ada hadn't mentioned the toffee made by Mrs. Weasley today, McGonagall would have forgotten about it, but Dumbledore obviously hadn't forgotten, and he had kept this "vengeance" to this day.
You can't talk about it, you can't cheat, let alone fight. Dumbledore can let Ada take McGonagall with him, and he can spare one hand. Ada said viciously: "This year's Christmas, the professor will definitely receive my gift, a big box full of Bibi's multi-flavor beans, and they all smell like vomit!"
This gift can be said to be full of malice, but if Ada really dared to give it, Dumbledore would really dare to accept it. This is the man's strange desire to win. I don't know when, and I don't know why, it will suddenly pop up.
The dispute over the candy was put aside for the time being. It was getting late, and Dumbledore still had a puzzle that he needed Ada to answer. Dumbledore asked: "Do you remember when you were ten years old, there was an explosion in the neighborhood near your orphanage?"
Since Dumbledore no longer planned to treat Ada as a child, he could no longer investigate this matter privately. This would easily arouse Ada's resentment. This was not the result he wanted to see, so he directly He asked this question that had puzzled him for a long time.
Ada knew about the explosion, but she only heard it mentioned by other children in the orphanage. The original accident happened in the summer of the year when she was ten years old, which happened to be the same day as the explosion. So Ada also wondered whether her arrival was related to the explosion? It's just that the original person's memory was very confusing. It was impossible to confirm whether the magic power riot that saved her caused the explosion. Moreover, the original person lost consciousness the moment the magic power riot started.
Dumbledore brought up old things again today. Did he also suspect that this matter had something to do with him? Should I tell Dumbledore my guess? Although the magic riot saved the original body, it also harmed her. If there is a next time, will it be me who dies? Question marks kept drawing in Ada's mind, and she was hesitating.
