"Are you back late?" Betty was sitting on the sofa drinking coffee.
"It's not too late, maybe eleven or twelve. But I'm too tired." Ivy took the coffee in her hand and drank it in one gulp.
Betty rolled her eyes at him, "How long have you been preparing in advance and you're still so embarrassed?"
"You are prepared, and I am not stupid. Quirrell made me a huge puppet, and you almost couldn't see me." Ivy finished drinking the coffee and collapsed next to Betty.
The final exam has ended, and the students have a week's vacation. Ivey and the others have no classes now. As long as they attend the year-end banquet, the semester will officially end. When the test scores come in, they can go home.
"Hermione, are they okay?"
"It's okay, the situation is similar to mine." Ivey stood up
"Let's go have breakfast and then go see Harry"
Come to the restaurant
"Ron and Hermione are not here?" Ivy looked around and found no sign of the two of them.
"George, where is your brother?" He put his arms around the twins.
"I'm sleeping. I don't know what I did last night?" George said.
"You still don't know?" Ivey asked.
"You know? Come on! Tell me-" Fred leaned forward
"Save the world"
"——"
"What do you mean? Make it clear." George was very dissatisfied.
"Wait a minute, Dumbledore should announce - by the way, can I go to the Gryffindor lounge to find them?" Ivy said carelessly.
"Go, there's no one else inside, the password is dragon scum." Fred waved his hand.
“Go as soon as you finish eating”
——————
The two came to the Gryffindor lounge
"Leave it to me Ron, you go find Hermione"
After the arrangements were made, Ivy entered the first-year boys' dormitory. On Ron's bed, he lay in a big shape, with the quilt covering his head, and he could hear slight snoring.
Ivey walked over and lifted up the quilt
"Ron! What time is it? Harry is almost dead and he's still sleeping here."
"What?"
Ron sat up suddenly. After seeing him, his expression instantly changed and he fell down again.
"I don't have breakfast, don't disturb my sleep."
"Get up quickly. I don't know Harry's situation yet. Let's go and have a look." Ivy dragged him up.
"Don't pull, don't pull - OK, I'll get up"
After he was dressed, the two returned to the lounge. Betty and Hermione had already packed up and were waiting for them. Hermione was in good condition, but the dark circles under her eyes were a bit heavy.
“Let’s have something to eat”
Betty packed a bag of food from the dining room, and Hermione was taking out a ham sandwich from it.
"Oh! Betty, you're so kind!"
Ron, who had been half dead just now, suddenly regained his energy.
After eating and drinking for a while, the two came to the hospital. Harry was still lying on the bed and had not woken up.
"Ms. Pomfrey, how is Harry? When will he wake up?" Ron asked
"He was mentally traumatized and fell into a deep sleep as a self-protection mechanism. But don't worry, I have prepared the potion and he will probably wake up the day after tomorrow."
"It's okay. We'll see him again the day after tomorrow." Hermione felt relieved.
Several people left the hospital and just entered the castle when Professor Sprout walked towards them.
"Ivy, Principal Dumbledore wants you to find him," the professor said
————
"Professor Dumbledore, are you looking for me?"
Ivey came to the principal's office, where Dumbledore was sitting at the table writing something.
"Mr. Shafik, it's all thanks to you that Fawkes happened." Dumbledore looked up at him.
"Actually, I haven't been able to help you much, so I have to thank - uh -" He suddenly remembered that he didn't know the lady's name yet.
Ivey raised his head and looked at the picture frame above his head. The lady was also looking at him quietly.
"I know, Ms. Shafik and I have talked about it," Dumbledore said.
"Yes - thanks to Sha - Shafiq!" Ivy looked at the photo frame in shock, and then looked at Dumbledore in disbelief.
"Don't be surprised - it's not your father's lineage. Ms. Lorna is an only child and is not married. Their lineage has been cut off. You don't know it's normal." Dumbledore winked at him. "Okay, Shafiq
Sir, let's get back to the topic. Oh~ I have to mention one more thing - I have tasted steak, and your cooking skills are very good."
“Thank you for the compliment”
"I have sorted out the kitchen utensils left here. You can just take them away later."
"Thanks"
"Now back to the topic. First of all, I want to formally express my gratitude to you, not only for Fawkes, but also Mr. Potter, Mr. Weasley and Miss Granger. Your help is very crucial" Dumbledore said to Ai
Wei bowed
"Thank you very much. Fox's affairs are just a simple matter, and Harry and the others are also my friends. I just did what I should do."
"Humility - a beautiful quality that is very valuable. Mr. Shafiq, Hogwarts has always given clear rewards and punishments. I have already considered your reward.
"Okay, principal. I'm not welcome."
Although he said this, he didn't think so. There were no treasures in Hogwarts, maybe medals and other items that represented honor. He had no interest in these at all.
"Haha - it's yours now." As if reading his mind, Dumbledore took out a red stone and put it on the table.
"Philosopher's Stone!"
Ivy's eyes widened. This was beyond his expectation. "Mr. Principal, can you give me the magic stone?"
"It was Ms. Lorna's suggestion. I have thought about it for a long time."
Ivey looked at the former principal who might be his great-great-grandmother, "But why are you giving it to me? Besides - what do I need this for? Immortality? I'm only 12 years old. As for turning stone into gold, our family is not short of money.
.”
"That's right - it's precisely because you don't have these needs that the Philosopher's Stone is with you - I'm relieved," Dumbledore said with a smile.
His words left Ivey quite speechless, "But what should I do if Voldemort comes to me? He's not dead yet?"
"He is not really alive now, so naturally he will not really die. But don't worry - I will declare to the public that I have destroyed the Sorcerer's Stone. Moreover, with Voldemort's current ability, let alone Ms. Irene, even you, he
I don’t have the ability to fight back. In terms of safety, you can rest assured. Although it was Principal Lorna’s suggestion, I made the decision after careful consideration. It will not threaten your safety. I have also communicated well with my old friends.
Already." Old Dengtou considered it very comprehensively.
"Since you said so, principal, I will accept it." Ivy took the magic stone.
"Very good. But there is one more thing I want to tell you. Even if I claim to have destroyed the Philosopher's Stone, there will definitely be some people who don't believe it - including the Ministry of Magic. In order not to make people suspicious, and at the same time reduce the attention paid to you.
, you will not be involved in this matter, there will only be three Harrys in the whole process." Dumbledore looked at him.
"Damn! After all that, I still don't want Harry to win the Academy Cup. This old and cunning guy! He gave me an unused magic stone as hush money and chose me out." Ivy said angrily in his heart.
In fact, he didn't care about these things. Originally, he was prepared to work for free, but now he got a Philosopher's Stone for free, which was beyond his expectations. He just didn't expect that Dumbledore would take Harry so seriously. What's the point of this little honor?
use?
"But Harry's side—"
"Don't worry about Harry, I will explain it to the three of them."
"Okay, I have no problem here," Ivey replied readily.
At least they also found a magic stone. Even though Irene and Wendy couldn't tell, they were still in their early thirties. I'll ask Irene to do some research later and get some kind of potion that will keep you young forever. Ivy can also feast his eyes on it.
