Chapter 748: Hogwarts Learning Panel Chapter 320

Xiang Xien said subconsciously.

"You knew? It seems we are evenly matched in investigating Tom Riddle...

But can you tell me how the stars speak?"

Buliduo crossed his ten fingers and squinted his eyes.

"This is a fairy tale, Headmaster Buliduo. I think, even in the wizarding world, stars don't speak."

Xiang Xien said.

"Who knows?"

Buliduo teased kindly.

The circular Headmaster's office looked the same as usual:

Many exquisite silver instruments were placed on the long-legged table, rotating and spraying small puffs of smoke.

The portraits of those male and female old headmasters were all dozing in their respective frames. Buliduo's magnificent phoenix, Fawkes, stood on the perch behind the door, watching Xiang Xien with interest.

It was hard to imagine that even though Xiang Xien contacted Fawkes secretly almost every week, the phoenix's affinity had always been stuck at 【Apprentice】.

Perhaps, as Headmaster Buliduo said, the phoenix is an extremely loyal magical creature.

"Come, child, I should share what I know with you; of course, I remind you, child, my ears also want to hear some whimsical ideas.

They are a bit old, but still strong...

Although we have always been doing this, I still want to repeat it again.

From now on, we are going to leave the solid factual foundation, cross the dim and blurry memory swamp together, and enter the complex and bold guesses.

On this point, Xiang Xien, I might make a pathetic mistake like Humphrey Belcher, who actually believed that cheese could be used to make a cauldron."

Buliduo said slowly.

"Guesses don't mean they are wrong; we will find the right path."

Xiang Xien said.

"I naturally thought so too, but, as I have already confirmed to you, we will also make mistakes like ordinary people.

In fact, because we—please forgive me—because I am much smarter than most people, my mistakes will be correspondingly more serious."

After Buliduo finished speaking, he took out a crystal bottle.

Xiang Xien knew this was Bob Ogden's memory.

At the same time, the world seemed to be muted; Xiang Xien couldn't control himself from looking at Buliduo's left hand, and only after discovering that the hand was not as withered as he imagined did he feel relieved.

Bob Ogden, a wizard who worked in the Department of Magical Law Enforcement at the Ministry of Magic.

His memory played a crucial role in Voldemort's background, especially the corruption and cruelty of his maternal family—the Gaunt family, and the early history of one of the Horcruxes, Marvolo Gaunt's ring.

Xiang Xien didn't know when he passed away, nor did he know when his memory was obtained by Buliduo.

But he was very certain that Headmaster Buliduo must have obtained the Gaunt ring between the fourth and fifth school years.

And now, not knowing whether it was the Chamber of Secrets diary, Ravenclaw's diadem, or Slytherin's locket that made Buliduo discover more Horcrux traces, Headmaster Buliduo had paid attention to Bob Ogden's memory in advance.

This meant that Xiang Xien had to accept the changes and let the plan start early.

"Let's take a walk on Bob Ogden's memory path; today, we have a date with Bob Ogden."

Buliduo pulled out the wooden stopper of the crystal bottle and poured the silvery substance in the bottle into the Pensieve; they slowly rotated in the basin, emitting a faint shimmer, neither like liquid nor like gas.

The two looked at each other, and Buliduo's deep eyes noticed something different.

He smiled, then watched Xiang Xien dive into the silvery substance.

Xiang Xien's feet seemed to leave the ground, passing through the constantly rotating darkness, falling, falling.

Suddenly, the intense sunlight made Xiang Xien squint his eyes.

Before his eyes could adapt, Buliduo landed beside him.

They stood on a country path, with high, tangled hedges on both sides, and the summer sky overhead, as clear and azure as forget-me-not flowers.

About ten steps in front of them stood a short, fat man.

He wore a pair of glasses with particularly thick lenses, and his two eyes were shrunk into two dots, like a mole's eyes. ===== CHAPTER 749 =====
