Chapter 269 The Cause of Everything
"Well, in that case, let's stop here for today."
Dumbledore, who had planned well in his mind, was poured a basin of cold water by Fich, but he did not force Fich to continue to talk to Voldemort.
It is better to follow Fich's previous rhythm. If you are too anxious, it is easy for Riddle to see the abnormality. Voldemort at this time is very cautious...
Dumbledore showed a little dissatisfaction with Riddle's abuse of magic power when he first met him. As a result, Voldemort hid in the school for seven years. After graduation, he also accumulated strength in secret until he jumped to the front after his wings were full.
As for Voldemort's later reckless behavior, in addition to the fact that his soul was split many times, resulting in defects in his character, it was more because he felt that his power was enough and he didn't need to hide his nature anymore.
"Then, I'll keep this diary for you. Fersh, you just need to come and chat with him every night."
"Meow every day?"
(ω)
Since he handed over the diary, Fersh didn't expect to get it back, but he had to come and write every day...
Even if he could learn how to deceive people from Voldemort, the kitten didn't have that much motivation.
"Okay, okay, at least once every three days, that's fine, right?"
Dumbledore shook his head helplessly and laughed.
Anyway, the one who should be anxious is Voldemort. Fersh can rest if he wants to. The worst that can happen is that he can't get any clues. Dumbledore didn't have much hope at first, but Fersh's performance later made him look forward to it.
"No problem, meow!"
(●ΦωΦ●)
This frequency is acceptable to Fersh, and he agreed without hesitation.
"Want to go to the kitchen for a midnight snack, meow?"
The cat touched his stomach and invited.
"No," Dumbledore smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Minerva and I have something to discuss, you go by yourself, and..." He reminded again: "Remember to keep the Horcrux matter confidential, especially don't tell Harry."
Dumbledore didn't know whether Fish had heard his arrangement for Harry before, but he still emphasized it.
"Because he also has Voldemort in his head? Will Harry be okay?"
(ˇˇ)
Fish's face showed a trace of worry.
Obviously, although Fish was still angry with Professor McGonagall at that time, the cat's sensitive hearing still automatically received her conversation with Dumbledore.
"Yes," Dumbledore sighed, "At least he has no abnormalities at the moment, and we will find a way to solve this matter later."
"Okay..."
Fish scratched his cat's head, and knew that he couldn't help much, so he quickly put this matter behind him.
"By the way, Minerva, can I go visit Ouroboros now, meow?"
ω
Fish turned his head and looked at Professor McGonagall. Before, Professor McGonagall didn't allow Fish to play with the basilisk again because she was worried that Fish would run into Voldemort in the Chamber of Secrets.
"Of course."
Professor McGonagall hesitated for a moment, but still agreed to Fish's request. Since Voldemort had been caught, there was no need to worry about Fish getting into trouble. The basilisk obviously wouldn't hurt Fish without Voldemort's order, and besides...
According to Fish himself, the basilisk seemed to be unable to beat him... I don't know how this little cat did it.
Professor McGonagall was keenly aware that a little cat was hiding something from her.
For a moment, her eyes became sharp as she looked at Fish.
"Meow?!"
∑(●ΦДΦ●)
Fish, sensing the danger, didn't know what Professor McGonagall was going crazy about again. He covered his butt and ran out quickly.
"Fish is going to have a midnight snack, meow!"
After Fish left, Professor McGonagall turned her gaze to Dumbledore again and asked in confusion, "Is there anything else that needs to be discussed without Fish, Albus?"
Voldemort is already trapped in a jar. If it weren't for Dumbledore's plan, he could have gotten rid of the Horcrux long ago. Fish even knew that Harry was half a Horcrux. So what else can't the kitten know?
Isn't this disturbing their mother and son's dinner!
Professor McGonagall, who had just beaten Fish, wanted to take this opportunity to comfort the child.
She was already unhappy with Dumbledore for helping Fish lie, and now Professor McGonagall would not have a good face.
So she folded her hands and stared at Dumbledore impatiently, with a lion face that was intimidating without anger, and her front paws kept stomping on the ground, making a slight "da da" sound.
"Ahem..."
Dumbledore felt a little uncomfortable being stared at by Professor McGonagall. He coughed, lowered his head to avoid her sight, and then explained why he kept her.
"What I want to say is related to the person who sent the diary to Hogwarts..."
Dumbledore told Professor McGonagall about the results of his recent investigation.
After knowing that the first person to be confused was Ginny, Dumbledore had already started to investigate, and then he quickly found out about the conflict between Arthur Weasley and Lucius Malfoy before the start of school.
Of course, this alone does not prove anything, but what if there is a house elf named Dobby in the Malfoy family?
Although most wizards rarely care about the names of other people's elves, Dumbledore is unfortunately an exception.
And since Lucius himself did not hide it and often took his house-elf around, it was not difficult to know Dobby's name.
"You mean, Lucius Malfoy deliberately gave the diary to Ginny?"
The mane next to Professor McGonagall's head exploded, and her eyes were full of anger.
"Is he crazy?! He actually gave such a dangerous thing to a child! His own son is still in school!"
"I think Lucius probably doesn't know that the diary is a Horcrux," Dumbledore explained for him, "I don't think Voldemort will tell him the truth. He probably thinks it's just a dark magic item of his master, and maybe he knows it can open the Chamber of Secrets?"
Dumbledore shook his head uncertainly and said, "Of course, the main reason is that he thinks Voldemort is dead, and before the start of school, the Ministry of Magic is searching for dark magic items, so Lucius did it conveniently, dealing with a trouble while also framing Arthur."
Although he didn't know Lucius Malfoy's specific thoughts, Dumbledore still guessed it was almost right.
"If possible, he could even use this to drive me out of Hogwarts... After all, that's how Mr. Armando left that year."
Principal Dippet on the wall couldn't help rolling his eyes, and then continued to hang his head and pretend to sleep.
Now Professor McGonagall also knew why Dumbledore had kept it a secret from Fitch.
Draco Malfoy had a good relationship with Fitch. If Fitch knew that all this was done by his good friend's father, he would definitely be unhappy, and Voldemort in the diary might catch the opportunity to induce negative emotions.
Although under Dumbledore's nose, even if Fitch really fell into Voldemort's trap, there would not be any big problems, but it would be a good thing to reduce the potential safety hazards. Professor McGonagall did not want her cat to have any trouble.
Acknowledging Dumbledore's reason for doing so, Professor McGonagall no longer stared at him with her powerful eyes. She nodded, said good night lightly, and left the principal's office.
"Huh——"
Dumbledore wiped his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief...
Professor McGonagall was so scary when she was angry. It was really tiring to be the principal...
After solving Voldemort, I would retire quickly.

Rowling was “forced” to be unable to attend HP’s 20th anniversary celebration. The reason is ridiculous. If you are interested, you can check it out yourself.
The protagonists collectively draw a line between themselves and her. Only Voldemort supports Rowling. Malfoy said something fair and was criticized so much that he pretended to be dead. It seems that only Luna came out to speak for Rowling among the positive characters…
What a magical realism… It reminds me of Return of the Condor Heroes. Only Rong Mama is a good person…╮(╯▽╰)╭
