Andy glanced at Harry.
Before Dumbledore mentioned it, Andy hadn't cared too much, but after hearing Dumbledore's words, Andy snapped back. This Harry kid's trust in him was unusually high in the previous battle!
When he told him to go east, he didn't go to the west.
Harry had completed all the tasks entrusted to him meticulously.
You know, although the relationship between Andy and Harry has Ron as a layer, usually they are not too close, at most, they will send gifts for the holidays, greet each other usually, and so on.
'Sure enough, is it because I'm too good?' Andy thought rather narcissistically.
He is excellent to the extent that even people who usually don't have a good relationship could trust him extremely.
"Professor Dumbledore, how is Percy?" Harry asked with concern.
"I've taken him to the school's hospital wing."
Dumbledore's tone was a little heavy, "But Percy suffered a mental harm that won't heal so easily."
As the words trailed off, Dumbledore beckoned, and Ron's entire body floated up in the air.
"How did that happen?" Harry asked, in a hurry.
Harry had lived in Burrow for a while during the summer holiday and knew Percy quite well. How could he have thought that Percy would be under Voldemort's bewitchment?
He wasn't that kind of person.
Dumbledore explained, "Harry, what dark wizards are good at is bewitchment."
"That dark magic item was the Ravenclaw's diadem, a treasure that, in legend, enhances wisdom. Voldemort took advantage of this and easily gained Percy's trust."
After saying that, Dumbledore picked up the diadem that had fallen on the ground.
The diadem had been burnt beyond recognition by the Fiendfyre.
Andy pretended not to see it and changed the topic very stiffly, "If that's the case, then it's no wonder."
Not to mention someone like Percy Weasley who had an extreme desire for authority, even Andy, if he got the Ravenclaw diadem by chance, he might be overwhelmed with joy.
He might even put it on his head and try it out.
If there happened to be a knowledgeable old grandpa in the diadem, Andy might even use it as his own plug-in.
Thank goodness that didn't happen!
Andy was suddenly a bit thankful that the person who got the Ravenclaw diadem wasn't himself.
Andy felt that he absolutely could not resist the temptation of the diadem.
Once he put it on his head, it would really be over!
"Right, Headmaster."
Andy suddenly remembered something, "If Voldemort's ... if all those dark magic items are treasures like the diadem, then we have to be vigilant."
"To be honest, if I were to get this diadem, I wouldn't be able to resist its temptation."
Dumbledore nodded.
He had already guessed what a few of the Horcruxes might be, and the only question now was, where had Voldemort hidden them?
Oh, and there was another vital question.
How many Horcruxes had Voldemort made?
It was impossible to have no upper limit, but based on the clues so far, it definitely wouldn't be too few.
"Alright!"
Dumbledore said, "Now we need to get Ron and Argus to the school's hospital wing. Collins, Argus will be in your hands."
Andy shrugged, took out his wand and pointed it at Filch, who floated in the air.
"Let's go!" Dumbledore said.
***
Soon, the group of people arrived at the school's hospital wing.
"Oh! Merlin!"
Madam Pomfrey complained as soon as she saw that Dumbledore had sent two more wounded, "What's going on at Hogwarts? This is already the fifth casualty. Dumbledore, you, the headmaster, should take the responsibility!"
Andy looked at Madam Pomfrey with immense admiration.
In Hogwarts, he believed, the only person who dared not save Dumbledore's honour was this woman in front of him.
"It is indeed my responsibility."
Dumbledore didn't push back, "But it's good that the problem has been solved. Poppy, the life force of the others should have been recovered by now, right?"
Madam Pomfrey nodded her head, "It has indeed been recovered. After taking the potion, they will be able to wake up tomorrow morning."
As she spoke, Madame Pomfrey had already finished checking on Ron and Filch.
"Weasley's condition is a bit serious, but Filch was only hit by the Stunning Spell."
Madame Pomfrey said nonchalantly, "I'm going to get the potion for the patient, so if you guys don't have anything else to do, don't disturb the patient's rest."
Harry said in a rush, "Madam Pomfrey, Ron is in your hands."
Walking out of the hospital wing, Dumbledore waved his wand and used the wand-lighting charm.
"As much as I would like to know what happened tonight, it's ... time for you two to go back to your bed."
Dumbledore winked and said mischievously, "But my luck looks pretty good, your dormitory and my office are both on the seventh floor, so we can still talk for a while."
On the way up the stairs, Andy and Harry shared a brief story of what had happened this night.
Harry did not hide anything, he gave a careful account of how he had discovered Ron's abnormality, and how he had tested Ron and followed him, before and after.
Andy, on the other hand, hid what happened last night.
After all, knocking out his classmates and giving them a truth potion, this kind of thing would tarnish his image too much.
What's more, Andy didn't bother with Ron last night after that.
Andy left Ron in that classroom after asking for the information he wanted.
So Andy only said that he was distracted and wanted to wander around at night on a whim, and then he stumbled upon this incident.
Everything was a coincidence.
Dumbledore, on the other hand, had an attitude of 'I completely believe you', the whole person acting as if he had severe dementia, no matter how many loopholes existed in Andy's words, it seemed as if he didn't hear them.
This attitude of Dumbledore instantly puts Andy on guard.
This awful old man's means of arranging things had always been silent.
Many people would act according to Dumbledore's ideas without being aware of it. Some people will not defy Dumbledore's arrangement, even if they are aware of it.
Because that was what they wanted to do the most due to their character.
Andy fell silent and began to think twice in his mind, recalling everything that happened after Dumbledore appeared tonight in detail.
If there was any leading behaviour on Dumbledore's part, it might have been the line, Just as Harry trusted you before.
When Dumbledore said that, no matter what Andy thought in his mind, Andy's attitude towards Harry did change dramatically.
Andy thought that Harry was not that bad at the time.
But now it seems ...
Andy glanced at Dumbledore, although Dumbledore just guided it along, but he felt, this is what Dumbledore's aim is, isn't it right?
