Walking on the rugged path of the Forbidden Forest, William held the Phoenix Fox in his arms.

He pressed his hands on Fox, using his unique cat-felt technique to try to touch it, so as to take the opportunity to collect the tail feathers.

Fox didn't notice William's sinister intentions, and was enjoying the advanced massage technique with his eyes closed, looking excited.

If it could speak, it would probably shout out loud now: "Technician No. 7 has a good review, add the bell!"

Dumbledore didn't notice that William was about to kidnap his Phoenix, with a smile on his face:

"William, you did something noble tonight."

Hearing the principal's words, William shook his head: "I helped the horse people just don't want to see them being massacred."

Dumbledore praised: "It is already a noble act to stand up in the face of danger."

"Actually, I have selfish intentions," William smiled and said, "Newt told me that only by helping these high-IQ creatures can you have the opportunity to communicate with them on an equal footing basis and even get what you want."

The Mermaid incident taught William a very serious lesson.

Before this, William did not treat these magical creatures as "humans", but they are indeed a creature with high IQ.

If we could communicate with mermaids before, instead of using trapping with Cedric and others, we would not have been attacked on Christmas.

William is a very good at thinking. Since he has made a mistake once, he will not make it again.

The Horseman is a good change for him.

If he wants to get precious herbs in the forbidden forest, he must have a good relationship with the horse people.

Although Bain hates humans, Ronan and Ferenze do not hate it, and even said that a considerable number of the Horseman are not disgusted.

As Taizu said: If you make more friends, you will make few enemies.

This principle will never go out of date.

Maybe one day Ferenze or Ronan will take office and become the leader of the Horse?

"Yes, many wizards don't realize this." Dumbledore outlined: "You're doing right, we really need to be friendly with those magical creatures.

We have too few helpers!”

Dumbledore looked at the bright Mars and said sadly: "The last time the Wizard War, the Death Eaters were numerous, and they also had giants, werewolfs, and vampires as their accomplices... We were not experienced at the time and had a disadvantage in number, which led to many wizards being killed."

"If we could unite all the forces that could be united at that time, it would have reduced a lot of unnecessary deaths."

Dumbledore's voice echoed in the Forbidden Forest.

"William, if you want to have a good relationship with the Horseman, it's not an easy thing.

The horses are very stubborn, and I have always hoped to invite them to Hogwarts as teachers in divination classes, but they are unwilling to leave the Forbidden Forest.”

William raised his eyebrows. Does the principal think that Professor Trelawney is very awkward?

So, why did Dumbledore still keep a liar for twelve years?

Dumbledore never does useless things. Is Trelawney the hidden sweeper of Hogwarts?

William suddenly became interested in this liar who everyone called.

"By the way, professor, I have another question." William hesitated for a moment and said, "Is the wizard who appeared tonight the wizard who attacked the Gringott?"

"It's him." Dumbledore replied without any hesitation.

"Why did he kill unicorns?"

"The blood of a unicorn can continue life and restore power, even if you are dying,

That man had long lost most of his power, and his battle with you in the Gringott and his accumulated power for several years. He needed the blood of a unicorn."

"But I remember the blood of the unicorn..."

"That's right." Dumbledore sighed: "Unicorns are pure, weak and helpless lives.

From the moment its blood hits your lips, all you have will be a half-dead life, a cursed life.

But for Voldemort, what is a curse? He had already cast a more terrifying curse on himself."

William frowned, and he also guessed that the man might be Voldemort, but he didn't expect the principal to tell him clearly.

"So, it was Voldemort who controlled Quirrell to steal the Philosopher's Stone?"

"It's him." Dumbledore nodded, "He has been wandering here since the summer vacation."

"Since it's confirmed that Voldemort is doing it, why let Quirrell be allowed to be in school?"

William always thought Dumbledore was fishing and wanted to know who was instructing Quirrell.

But now it seems that this is not the case. The principal clearly confirmed the other party’s identity and set up levels. This is not fishing at all, but... playing with fire.

Dumbledore sighed heavily this time.

"William, you should know that Voldemort attacked Harry when he was a baby.

He should have died there, but he just lost most of his power.

Voldemort once told the Death Eaters many times that he had walked farther than anyone else on the road to immortality.

I have some speculations about Voldemort's methods, but there is no key evidence yet.

I need to observe his status further.

The most important thing is, William, I need to be fully prepared and fight him to the death.

This is a test and a hone!"

William frowned and wanted to ask something, but Dumbledore raised his hand.

"I can't tell you now, one day, you will know.

When you grow older... I know you don't want to listen to this... When you should know, you will know naturally."

William nodded.

"Ha, I think I heard Hagrid's voice, let's go find him." Dumbledore smiled and said, "I don't think he would mind cooking some pine nut tea to warm our stomachs."

...

...

Just as William and Dumbledore finished the conversation, a black-robed wizard had sneaked back to Hogwarts from the secret passage.

Instead of returning to the Black Magic Defense Office, Qiluo walked towards the fourth floor penalty area.

Dumbledore was still in the forbidden forest. Snape, who had been disturbing him, had been knocked unconscious and hung on the southeast branch.

Now, no one can stop him from stealing the Philosopher's Stone.

Voldemort originally didn't want to do it now, but the development tonight was beyond his expectations. He suddenly realized that now was a good time.

After tonight, there may not be such a good opportunity.

Even if he failed, his backup plan was ready.

Under Voldemort's order, Kilow opened the door, and the three-headed dog Lu Wei squeezed his eyes and looked at him with a grin.

Quirrell trembled all over. This was not the first time he saw Lu Wei, but he trembled all over whenever he saw him.

"Idiot, play the song."

At Christmas, Quirrell disguised himself as a strange wizard, took the dragon egg and went to find Hagrid, and tricked him into Lu Wei's weakness.

Hagrid was drunk at the time and said: Only his singing can make Lu Wei fall asleep, anyone else can do it!

So Quirre believed it.

And let Hagrid sing and record it with a crystal ball.

Quirot took out the crystal ball from his pocket, and he placed it on the ground tremblingly, with rough and unpleasant singing from the sea grid.

"Unforgettable tonight, unforgettable tonight, no matter the ends of the world or the corners, Hogwarts, our home..."

"Go to bed quickly!"

Quirrel looked at Lu Wei expectantly.

"Three, two, one...fall!"

But soon, his smile froze.

Sleep, why doesn’t this stupid dog sleep?
