Dumbledore took off his glasses and rubbed his forehead tiredly. Behind him was a blackboard he had conjured, which was filled with dense blackboard writing.
His eyes passed over arrows, words, and graphics, and then he let out a sigh from deep in his heart: Young man!
Is this a young man who is determined to make progress? Is he too old? Looking at Tom, who also had an indelible tiredness on his face, Dumbledore seemed to see the golden boy from a hundred years ago.
The same talent, the same heroic demeanor, the same ambition, but there are essential differences between him and that person.
What drives that person is the desire for power and ambition, but what drives this kid Tom is probably something very ridiculous: laziness. If I use a more fashionable word to describe it, it would be Buddhist, salted fish.
After such a long conversation, Dumbledore was certain of one thing: Tom was a man of daily living. He just wanted to live a peaceful life with his girlfriend. Tom Riddle would disturb him.
to his peaceful life, so he wants to wipe Riddle from the world.
He really didn't have very grand ideals, this kid was very realistic. Dumbledore even believed that if it came to a point where nothing could be done, he would completely abandon the wizarding world, pretend to be an ordinary Muggle, and live in seclusion.
But he is still thinking about the magical world. Looking at his plan, Dumbledore's old face flashed with respect: He really dares to think. If his conjecture is true, I'm afraid it can really bring great benefits to the world.
All the wizards in the world have done a great job in finding a piece of pure land! It can be said that all wizards must inherit his kindness.
Just now, Tom gave Dumbledore a complete account of his plan to eliminate Voldemort and his remnants, his plan to infiltrate the Ministry of Magic and the non-magical world, and his use of dementors, etc...
Through this blackboard, Dumbledore seemed to see a brand new future. The boy seemed to want to weave a net to trap all unstable factors, including dark creatures, the Dark Lord, the Minister of Magic, the Prime Minister of the Cabinet,
No one should try to cause trouble. Dumbledore believed that after his death, Hogwarts would be easily controlled by him if he wanted to.
"The time for change has arrived... There are only a hundred million historical facts left for me to verify - just after Voldemort is destroyed." Tom's voice was a little hoarse, and his hair was a little messy, but his eyes were bright.
This is the first time since he came here that he has completely pulled out all his plans, and he is also a little nervous.
The more complex the plan, the greater the probability of mistakes. Fortunately, Tom's plan is staged and can be implemented stage by stage. The first stage starts with the reincarnation of the noseless monster!
He is now waiting for Dumbledore's response. He really hopes to get some help from the old wizard - even just recognition.
Dumbledore looked at those bright eyes and sighed. The child's idea was good, but it was a pity that the current magical world could no longer withstand the hardships.
During the time when Grindelwald was making trouble, almost all the energy of the wizarding world was drained. To this day, wizards have not recovered from that catastrophe. If it happens again, no one knows what the future of wizards will be like.
.
But he didn't want to completely deny Tom's plan - at least the part of destroying Voldemort looked tempting.
"Have you ever thought about what you would do if your hypothesis does not hold true or the magical world does not support your plan?" Dumbledore looked away from the blackboard and asked seriously. At this moment,
He was even considering the idea of imprisoning Tom if his answers were unsatisfactory. The reason was simple: the magical world could no longer withstand the torment.
Tom thought for a while, "If my conjecture is not true, then all my subsequent plans should be cancelled. I should guard New Azkaban - or White Dolphin Prison for the rest of my life, right? At the same time, closely monitor the cabinet.
Plus the Ministry of Magic, but I’m definitely not going to make any reforms. It’s good to be a framer for the rest of my life.”
Tom himself knows very well that for a group that is going downhill, lame reforms are even worse than no changes at all. Many times, this kind of reform works like stepping on the accelerator on the downhill road. So once the suspicion in his mind is
If it is falsified, he will choose the conservative route without hesitation and reject drastic reforms.
And that guess is [Another World]
As a concept in Celtic mythology, even most wizards believe that [the other world] is an illusory existence, but Tom is thinking that if he can find [the other world], he can let the wizards
Settling down in [Another World]? As for why he dares to think that [Another World] exists, is it because of those strange tasks and the creatures that he encountered on the way to complete the tasks that clearly do not belong to this world? This gave him
A glimmer of hope was ignited.
In this way, while developing in this world and leaving fire for wizards in [another world], it may be the best choice for wizards.
But the premise of all this is to prove and find the legendary place.
When Dumbledore heard what Tom said, he finally felt relieved. Fortunately, the child still knew the severity, and he still had some good days to live. As long as he kept an eye on him, there shouldn't be any big problems.
.
So he clapped softly, expressing his approval for Tom. Seeing the boy in front of him smile happily because of his applause, Dumbledore felt that his mood suddenly improved.
"I think you can start the first phase of preparations first. As for Fudge, you can figure it out yourself..."
…
Tom ended the conversation with Dumbledore and walked out of Dumbledore's office exhausted. When he stood up, he could clearly feel that the clothes on his back were wet with sweat. In the past few hours, Tom had
I had a weird illusion that I was participating in a graduation defense and a job interview.
As soon as he walked out of the office door, something soft fell on Tom's lap.
"Hmm...huh?" The thing groaned, and Tom recognized it as Hermione. She had been leaning outside the door when Tom and Dumbledore were talking, and finally fell asleep!
Tom quickly squatted down and held Hermione's hands. His hands were cold, "What happened? What should I do if I catch a cold?"
