In the headmaster room, everything seems to have not changed much.

Sorting Hat is still on the shelf behind him, Phoenix Fawkes squinting at the squinting, the silver ampoules on the long table next to the bookshelf, and still beating azure smoke…

Only on the top of the wall behind the desk, there is one more row in the row of golden frames.

That is the portrait of the headmaster of the Hogwarts magic school. Whenever a headmaster leaves, there will be a portrait of the headmaster on the wall.

At the moment, in the new photo frame that just appeared, the old wizard with half-moon glasses on the bridge of the nose was squinting at both eyes, seemingly at the closed eye to rest.

But if you look at it for a long time, you will find that, unlike other portraits that can come and go freely in the photo frame, the old wizard in this photo frame has not had any action.

It is as if it is a photo of a muggle, completely motionless.

“Minerva, the minister will come over this afternoon and the schedule is already scheduled…”

Suddenly, one of the empty photo frames walked in and said something.

“Thank you, Evra.”

I have been standing at my desk since the beginning, staring at the last portrait of Professor Mad Gonagall, moving my eyes to the person who spoke and gently nodded.

Just as she was again looking at Dumbledore’s portrait, the door to the headmaster room was ringing.

“笃笃笃”

“…please come in.” McGonagall slowly turned around and pointed to the threshold with wand.

The voice did not fall, the door quietly opened, and the three professors Flitwick, Snape, and Sprout walked in.

They are all Head of House. In the absence of Dumbledore’s death and the lack of headmaster positions, the heads of the hospitals became the top decision makers of Hogwarts.

Although Professor McGonagall was temporarily selected as the headmaster agent, she did not have the absolute right to deal with some major school affairs.

“It’s all coming,” McGonagall slightly nodded. “Ministry of Magic will arrive in the afternoon, but before that, I think we should talk about it first… about the future of Hogwarts.”

“How do you say that?” the little man, Flitwick, asked sharply.

Professor McGonagall looked at the heads in front of him and passed the thoughts he had just thought in his mind before he continued to speak.

“First,” she snorted. “According to what Snape described, Dumbledore’s death should not be homicide—he’s falling from the astronomical tower, right?”

As he spoke, McGonagall glanced over Snape and Snape expressionless was nodded.

“There are no signs of being invaded in the school. We searched together last night. There should be no problem with this.” She said seriously. “At least, I don’t think anyone can slip into Hogwarts completely without a trace. Silencio killed Dumbledore.”

Professor McGonagall’s statement was unanimously recognized by the other two heads.

“So, Dumbledore’s actual cause of death -“

“…is suicide.”

As the door to the headmaster room was opened again, Marx hurried to a few heads and made a clear conclusion.

“McLorne?” “Marx?”

When the four people in the headmaster room looked at him, he calmly nodded and then his eyes fell on Professor McGonagall.

“It’s suicide,” Marx repeated the words just now, and continued, “I don’t know how to say it for the time being. But it’s something that Dumbledore personally conveyed to me…”

“This…” Professor McGonagall gave a sigh.

“But what is the reason for him doing this?” Professor Flitwick screamed. “Is this thing unreasonable?”

“The delay is probably one of the reasons,” Marx shook his head. “Of course, for Professor Dumbledore, there are other, more important reasons for doing so.”

As for what Dumbledore said to him, there may be more changes next.

Dumbledore was “selfish” as he said, but while he chose to move on to the magic, he was clearly still working on the future of this world.

Even so he did not hesitate to use suicide to abandon the flesh and go to the edge of death.

“In short,” Marx said. “There will be even worse things happening. Whether it’s Hogwarts or somewhere else, we have to watch and tighten up.”

“Marx, is this what Albus told you?” asked Professor Sprout.

“Almost!” Marx spread his hand and was slightly helpless. “Professor Dumbledore has never liked to say too much, you know that…”

“That… what are the students going to do next? Do you have any suggestions?”

Marx can see that after Dumbledore’s death, Professor McGonagall’s usual courage and decisiveness has shrunk dramatically.

Maybe she is also confused!

After all, Dumbledore has made various decisions behind the scenes of Hogwarts alone. When looking at the status quo and development of the entire school, the location is different, and the scope of vision will also change a lot.

Although Dumbledore did intend to train Professor McGonagall, there are so many major events that Dumbledore had to deal with in the most critical years.

Professor McGonagall, although he has the ability to be the head of a school, can take over Hogwarts at this time of stress, which is a very deadly test for anyone.

Adding Dumbledore’s death also gave her a heavy blow, and the moment’s weakness was understandable.

“Professor McGonagall, don’t worry…” Marx looked at her calmly. “Just do what you want, we will support you – Hogwarts is not supported by someone alone from the beginning. The place.”

To be honest, McGonagall originally had plans to temporarily suspend classes. The reason why she has such an idea is entirely because of the pressure that will come like a tsunami.

When Dumbledore’s death came out, the parents of the students would inevitably shake the authority of Hogwarts.

In the minds of many parents, the existence of Dumbledore is one of the important reasons why they chose to enroll their children into Hogwarts.

However, in the wake of Voldemort’s successive attacks, Dumbledore actually died inexplicably?

The paradox of the magic society, the involvement of the Ministry of Magic, the uneasiness of the students… all of this will put the school into a period of turmoil.

Is it to reunite people’s hearts, or to fall apart, this is a major problem that will soon be faced.

In the absence of a clue, the choice of temporary suspension of classes to protect students’ safety is the top priority, and will undoubtedly be the most comfortable measure for parents.

but……

“The schedules of the grades are unchanged, so that the goal of teaching students is given priority.” Professor McGonagall nodded to Marx, and then he was serious and serious. “In the above premise, strengthen the security of the entire school, and at the same time All the entrance and exit personnel of the school conduct the most detailed investigation and filing.”

“I agree.” “Agree.”

Both Flitwick and Sprout responded immediately to Professor McGonagall’s decision, and Snape followed suit, and Marx naturally had no idea.

The measures decided by Professor McGonagall are clear – first let the young wizards continue to attend classes, and then strengthen the school security alert, but the school entrance and exit personnel are only investigating and filing.

This is obviously a series of response arrangements.

Marx understands that Professor McGonagall has already grasped Dumbledore’s intentions and wants to confuse the outside world.

“But…” Professor Flitwick, after agreeing, was slightly frowned, and screamed, “How do you explain the board? The sudden death of the headmaster needs to be done according to the rules… The board should not let this happen. Is it sloppy?”

“Yeah! There is Ministry of Magic over there, afternoon…” Professor Sprout also hesitated.

“Of course, I want to do things according to the rules.” Professor McGonagall is no longer confused at this time. She decisively said, “We must not only do things according to the rules, but also publicly hold Dumbledore’s funeral!”

“This is really a good idea,” Marx agreed, and went on. “But before that, there is one more thing to focus on…”

“What?” McGonagall asked a little doubt.

“Dear professors, who of you are familiar with Gellert Grindelwald? I need to focus on this Dumbledore… um… should it be considered ‘a former friend’?”

The words of Marx made the rest of the headmaster room jump.

“You are talking about…Sybill’s prophecy?” Flitwick said seriously.

“To be honest, I have never seen such a clear prophecy,” Marx frowned. “If the prophecy is fulfilled, then Grindelwald will be one of the enemies we have to face next.”

“Things about Grindelwald may make it more appropriate for the old Bins to talk about it…” Professor McGonagall thought, “Although when it comes to Grindelwald, everyone will remember Dumbledore and his duel; but he is the most The dangerous place is above the control of the overall situation.”

“Minerva is right,” Flitwick said, and he was somewhat suspicious. “But… Grindelwald, he… is it still alive?”

“…who knows? Probably…” Marx shook his head.

At the beginning, Grindelwald expanded his own terrorist activities, but did not extend to the Britain magic circle. So here, there are not many people who know the specific situation at the time.

Now that time has passed, it has been a long time. Although his name is still in various historical materials, how many people can really understand him?

Is Gellert Grindelwald still alive?

Here, only Marx still vaguely remembers that the first generation Dark Lord is indeed alive.
