Chapter 540

Chapter 540 The whereabouts of the Horcruxes, the saints are also involved?!!

"Don't! Uh..."

Harry cried out in horror.

To Harry's astonishment, Dumbledore was holding the necklace directly but did not do anything, but admired and played with it.

"Don't worry, Harry."

Dumbledore explained with a smile of surprise on his face, "This necklace is no longer harmful, and our Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor has dissolved the Dark Magic curse on it." "

Harry looked at Peter in surprise, not expecting that in an afternoon of hard work, Peter would eliminate such a dangerous thing.

Peter shrugged and said, "The curse on this necklace is not too complicated, although deadly, it seems too rough and direct, and it wastes such a good raw material." "

"That's just for you, no one else has that ability."

Dumbledore smiled and said, then his expression narrowed slightly, looking at Peter, "Who do you think would give such a dangerous necklace to Katie Bell?" "

"Didn't you already guess that?"

Peter looked at him, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "Although this method is quite naïve and does not work very well, it should be the most likely way for him to kill you at the moment." "

"Yes,"

Dumbledore sighed, "It's just that I didn't expect to implicate the innocent." If someone really died because of this, the child's soul would be completely unsaved. "

"It's pathetic, but it's his own choice after all."

Peter said with a look of disapproval on his face, "I said that you are just too concerned about this, and if I just catch him and beat him up, he will obey." Won't make this mess again. "

"If that's the case, then please look at him in secret, okay?" Peter. "

Dumbledore said sincerely, "His soul has not yet been thoroughly polluted, and I do not want him to fall into darkness by making irreparable mistakes on a whim." "

"Dumbledore, you have caught me again as a strong man!"

Peter was not angry and complained, "And your kindness, maybe people will not accept your affection after they know it." "

"It doesn't matter, as long as he can be prevented from going astray, that's enough."

Dumbledore said with a smile.

Harry listened to the conversation between the two of them, looking very confused, but still heard the key information, and asked in surprise, "Professor Dumbledore, did the person you said sent the necklace to Katie Bell want to assassinate you with the necklace?" "

"So, Malfoy used the Soul Reaper to control Katie Belle and let her deliver the necklace with the deadly curse to the Headmaster in your hands, hoping to kill you!"

"Harry, why do you think Mr. Malfoy did it?"

Dumbledore said gently, "You are a very serious accusation. "

"I know it's him! Principal you believe me! I snuck up on him…"

Harry excitedly voiced his suspicions and tried desperately to convince both of them of his word.

Dumbledore and Peter looked at each other, and then Dumbledore patted Harry on the shoulder and said, "Harry, I'm grateful to you for telling me this, but I can't accuse Malfoy of that shop because it happened to be selling that necklace." The same reason can be put on anyone, and I cannot target Mr. Malfoy because of your suspicions, which is unfair to him, including others. "

"Of course, I'll go to the Borgin Bock shop and ask the owner where the necklace goes."

Dumbledore interrupted Harry and said kindly, "Until then, I cannot doubt anyone for no reason, it is my duty as a headmaster. "

"Well, it's not too early now, Harry, you can go back and remember to come back to class tomorrow."

"Okay, goodbye professor."

Harry opened his mouth, then left the office with a frustrated look.

"Harry has already guessed it, why don't you just give him a positive answer?"

Peter asked puzzled.

"Like I said, even if we knew it was Malfoy Jr., we couldn't convict him without direct evidence."

Dumbledore shook

The head said, "And next, we need to borrow Malfoy's hand to achieve our purpose." So he can't be exposed yet. "

Peter did not dwell on this matter any longer, but asked curiously, "What have you been busy with these days?" The school affairs are handed over to Professor McGonagall, is it not true that you are still preparing for your 'dead' work? "

Dumbledore shook his head, but instead asked Peter, "Do you remember what Voldemort's Horcrux is left?" "

"Tom Riddle's diary, Mavologant's ring, Slytherin's pendant box, Ravenclaw's crown have all been wiped out."

Peter counted, "And Nagini is with you now, and Hufflepuff's golden cup and that sarcoma-bearing jumping pot are not yet visible." As for Harry…"

"I've found the location of the golden cup and the jumping pot."

Dumbledore said directly, "The Golden Cup was originally in the Lestrange family's vault, but since Voldemort had hit you with the Petrified Curse, he took the Golden Cup back and used it to transfer the curse on his body, and now he has given it to Bellacritus. And the jumping pot should be carried by Voldemort, who is probably frightened by your petrification curse, so it is used to prevent it from being petrified by you again later. "

"Has the golden cup been put back in the vault again?"

Peter asked if it were in the vault, it would be easy.

Dumbledore shook his head, "Bellacrux didn't put the cup back, and no one knows where she hid it. So if you want to know the whereabouts of the gold cup, you need to ask it out of the mouth of Bella Cretes. But now she usually stayed by Voldemort's side, and it was not easy to catch her. "

"It looks like two Horcruxes are not easy to get through."

Peter said helplessly, but then asked curiously, "By the way, you have studied Nagini's living Horcrux for so long, have you found anything?" Can you help Harry? "

Dumbledore shook his head, sighed, and said, "The soul fragments on Nagini's body are difficult to peel off, and if they are peeled off, the host will also die." So no way has been found at the moment. "

"Try it slowly, there will always be a way."

Peter could only say comfortingly. If there is really no way, then it can only follow the original method.

Unfortunately, in that case, Harry could only bet on whether he could survive or not.

Dumbledore did not stay on the subject, but looked at Peter curiously and said, "I heard that there was a trace of a phoenix in Italy, and now many hunters have rushed over, and many Death Eaters have also gone." "

"If Voldemort really caught a phoenix, would you really like to see him have an immortal body?" Know that when the time comes, even if we destroy all his Horcruxes, he will be able to live forever! "

"Yes, I didn't expect the news to spread so quickly."

Peter smiled and said, still calm, "I have another news here, Dumbledore, you should be interested." "

"What's the news?"

Dumbledore looked curious.

"According to my friends in France, this time it's not just the Death Eaters who are competing for the Phoenix. Many pure-blood families in Europe are also involved. "

"And there is a hidden force in it, they call themselves saints, they are also actively trying to compete for the phoenix, their strength should not be underestimated, and they are the most likely to succeed outside of the Death Eaters."

Peter looked at Dumbledore with a smirk, "Headmaster, you should know them, after all, you defeated their leader." "

"Gellert…"

Dumbledore's expression went blank for a moment, then he looked at Peter and asked in an uneven tone, "Peter, are you sure there are saints involved?" "

"Of course, if you don't believe me, then you can go and see who wins their battle for the phoenix?"

Peter smiled and said widely.
