Chapter 170 Five-Color Wizard Robe
Chapter 170 Five-Color Wizard Robe
After a strong squeeze, Alice saw Dumbledore standing in front of an old house.
"This is Gaunt's old house?" Looking at the dilapidated house in front of her, Alice couldn't believe it.Descendants of Slytherin, a pure-blood family that has been passed down for so long, isn't this a bit too miserable?And with such a long history, even if you sell a little jewelry and antiques?
So jewelry and antiques are sold out?Discovering that this is a Muggle village, Alice was inexplicably moved.Letting crazy pure-bloods live with Muggles is also a kind of torture for them.
Dumbledore was wearing a blue wizard robe with a pattern of white stars, which looked very out of place with the gloomy surroundings.
"So you came to find Horcruxes in your nightgown?" Snape mocked, pointing at the star cap on Dumbledore's head.
Dumbledore smiled: "It's still a little cold at night, isn't it?"
Alice raised her hand obediently: "Principal, I have been wondering for so many years, I hope you can answer it."
Dumbledore and Snape looked at Alice at the same time, the former asked curiously, while the latter showed inexplicable disgust.
"I think you know that we are here today for business." Strangely surprised by the sudden bad feeling, Snape said slowly.
"Oh, that's not in a hurry," Dumbledore winked at Alice, "then what's wrong with our Alice?"
"I want to ask, principal, where do you buy your wizard robes? How do you make them so colorful and never repeated? Why haven't I seen them in the store? Do these wizard robes have any special functions? , such as defending against black magic and increasing luck?" Alice finished a series of questions without panting, and then looked at Dumbledore expectantly.
Snape: "..."
"..." Dumbledore was also silent for a rare moment, "This is all custom-made and has no special function, it's just that I like it better."
"Indeed, only private customization can provide such a style that suits the customer's preferences." Alice nodded suddenly, "Then what is the contact information of the designer or tailor? Can you introduce us?"
Dumbledore adjusted his glasses happily: "You also like this style? I have always admired the creative style of this niche designer. I can contact you now..."
"Enough!" Snape quickly stopped, "Alice is just curious, I don't think you need to introduce the designer to her, Albus."
"I think it's nothing, just a designer," Dumbledore said innocently. "As a lonely old man, Alice can understand my aesthetics. I'm really happy."
"What is temporary curiosity?" Alice asked, "I have always been very serious. I really want to chat with this designer. The wizard robes are too lacking in color."
There are few wizards in the wizarding world who wear colorful wizard robes like Dumbledore. Most wizards choose black or green or other solid-color wizard robes.And female wizards are very concerned about the dresses for the dinner party, but they are more concerned about the tailoring of the daily wizard robes.After all, apart from relying on tailoring to highlight the waist, there is nothing to change.
It was also tonight, in the dim night, that Alice first noticed the beauty of Principal Dumbledore's wizard robe.Contact the designer and subtract Dumbledore's aesthetics. She will definitely lead the fashion trend in the wizarding world and make a lot of money!
After hearing Alice's grand plan, Snape's tense expression finally eased: "As long as you don't hang around in this wizard robe every day at home, it will really affect my mood and concentration."
Alice didn't say anything yet, but the smile on Dumbledore's face froze: "Severus, I think your description is very bad."
"So, when are we going in?" Snape ignored Dumbledore's words and looked at Gaunt's old house solemnly, "Are you sure the Horcrux is in there?"
"Do we need to make any preparations?" Alice also asked nervously, "The basilisk should not be asleep now, so we can hurry up and get some venom from it."
In fact, she originally stored a large amount of venom. After all, the body of the basilisk is here, so if you don't take it, you won't take it.But just a few days ago, Gavin did not know where he got the news that the basilisk venom could destroy black magic items, and very rudely borrowed all the venom in Alice's inventory.
Although there was nothing wrong with Gavin's expression and attitude, Alice always felt that he was mysterious.She even faintly doubted whether Gavin knew about the Horcrux, after all, he could always find out all kinds of strange news and secrets from nowhere.
"I'm sure the Horcrux is inside, and as for the preparations, I don't think there is any need for it now." Dumbledore put away his smile, and stretched out his right hand that had been hidden behind him.
"Merlin!" Looking at Dumbledore's withered black hand like a branch, Alice covered her mouth.
Snape moved forward anxiously, watching carefully as he waved his wand.
"When you get older, you will always be a little negligent. I think everyone can understand." Dumbledore was not in a hurry, and said slowly.
Alice also stood aside and watched, and asked, "Is this the ring?"
Said it was a ring, but it was more like a black stone.Without luster and beauty, it is just inlaid on the base in the simplest way.
Of course, most of the ring has been destroyed now, judging from the huge crack, the thing that destroyed the ring should be extremely sharp.
"Yes, to be precise, it's called the Resurrection Stone," Dumbledore's eyes flickered. "Obviously, it can't bring people back to life, and I didn't resist its temptation."
At this moment Snape looked up rather annoyedly: "You are old, is there something wrong with your brain? Why do you wear it?"
"It's very difficult to resist the temptation all the time," Dumbledore sighed, "not to mention some recent emergencies reminded me of my youth."
"So you can't even restrain yourself for this little time!" Snape's face turned extremely ugly, "It took us less than 5 minutes to set off after receiving the letter."
Dumbledore defended himself a few words: "Actually, when I found the Resurrection Stone, the owl should have only flown halfway."
"I think the most important thing now is to treat the principal," Alice interrupted the conversation between the two, "No one can guarantee that they can remain indifferent when facing the Resurrection Stone."
If someone told her that wearing this stone could revive Mrs. Rice, would she wear this broken stone?Alice thought she would, even though she knew it was a trap.For others, this is only a one-in-a-million possibility, but for her it is the only hope.
Both Dumbledore and Snape were silent.
"So you can remain indifferent when facing the Resurrection Stone in the future," Dumbledore sighed, "I have proved to you that death is irreversible."
Snape said hoarsely, "It's incurable."
"What?" Alice's heart sank, she couldn't believe it for a moment, "What do you mean?"
Dumbledore was not much surprised, he looked at his right hand as if looking at a novel treasure.
"The best I can do is control the poison in my right hand, but no matter how hard I control it, the poison will slowly spread," Snape said.
Dumbledore asked calmly, "How much time do I have left?"
"One year," Snape replied.
Alice opened her mouth, but found that she couldn't say a word.Her face was full of bewilderment, why did it kill the greatest white wizard when it was just a ring?
"Enough," Dumbledore actually smiled, "The plan went very smoothly, far smoother than the best result I expected. I think I can wait until that day."
As for which day, Dumbledore did not say.
……
I was speechless all the way, and when I got home, looking at the familiar lights, Alice suddenly froze.
"You don't have to feel bad, he will even include his own death in his plan." Snape glanced at Alice and said, but his tone was filled with obvious sadness.
Even if he doesn't like Dumbledore, he must admit that Dumbledore is a great white wizard, he protects Hogwarts and the entire wizarding world.It is too ridiculous to die because of Voldemort's Horcrux because of a ring.
"I just suddenly discovered that there is no warning of death," Alice said, looking steadily at the lights above, "when shopping, discussing new clothes, or when a relative or friend passes away or The news of an impending death can easily destroy everything."
Sadly, most people die without making too many waves.People acquainted and unknown lamented a few words about the unfortunate fate at the funeral.Then hurriedly plunged into a tedious and happy life.With the passage of time, everyone has forgotten it, and only a few people have accumulated more and more sadness in their hearts, and the more they recall, the heavier they are.
Without waiting for Snape to answer, Alice went on to say: "Am I being a bit hypocritical these days? Why should I be angry? What right do I have to be angry? Countless people died in front of Voldemort, but I only suffered a few Cruciatus Curse, just forced to become a professor."
"No, you have the right to be angry. No one deserves to die, no one deserves to suffer from the Cruciatus Curse." Snape closed his eyes and replied painfully, thinking of those who had wailed and begged for mercy before him.
Dumbledore's attitude towards death seemed to have infected Alice, and she smiled after venting briefly: "I'm going to make some biscuits for the headmaster, Sev, what flavor do you want?"
"The same," Snape replied. "As for Albus, I think he would like to try more new flavors in the last year of his life, such as chili, mustard, etc."
