The late Hogwarts Express finally arrived twenty minutes later.
But the moment everyone saw the Hogwarts Express, everyone's expressions changed.
The originally clean and bright red and black train was now showing varying degrees of oxidation and rust, making it look like a train that had long since been scrapped.
Moreover, it was obviously the hot season in July, but the carriage was inexplicably covered with a layer of frost. When the entire train entered the platform, a gloomy and biting chill gradually spread on the platform.
There was a commotion in the crowd, and everyone was speculating on what happened to the train before, but there was still no conclusion.
Not long after, the train finally stopped, and a person walked out of the carriage, wearing a red wine-colored wizard robe and a top hat. The person who came was none other than Albus Dumbledore, Dean of Gryffindor at Hogwarts. Professor Lido.
Seeing Dumbledore appear, many people gathered around to ask about the situation. Dumbledore did not show any embarrassment in the face of such a battle, but explained with a chuckle.
"Our train experienced a thrilling adventure on the road, but it turns out that the quality of our train is still very good, enough to protect the safety of the students, isn't it?"
Such humorous remarks not only appeased students and parents for a while, but also cleverly avoided sensitive issues.
The people present wanted to ask more questions, including many reporters who came because of the delay of the Hogwarts Express, but Dumbledore simply dismissed them and immediately got busy arranging the students to get on the train. School.
The turbulent crowd gradually became orderly, and Qin Weijie, Tom and Irina slowly followed the crowd towards the train.
When the three of them were about to get in the car, Professor Dumbledore came over.
"You three, come with me. Let's go to the box in Car No. 1. I have something to tell you."
As Professor Dumbledore said, he took the lead and walked forward. Qin Weijie and the other three looked at each other and followed him with doubts on their faces.
On the way Tom asked in a low voice: "Did you get into trouble again?"
"Oh my God, I got into trouble. We have been together all the time. What trouble can I get into!? And please explain to me, what does "getting into trouble again" mean? Why add another one!? It's the same as I always get into trouble. …”
Tom stopped talking and just gave Qin Weijie a casual look, letting him figure it out on his own.
At this time, Elena took advantage of the situation and said: "Please, please have some idea. Think about last year, the train attack on the first day of school; the big commotion in the Charms class on the first day of class; being punished with solitary confinement and driving me crazy for two days." You were a ghost; your first flying lesson almost scared Mr. Luss to death; you disappeared for a month not long after you started school;
Not long after you came back, you took Tom and disappeared for a month; in addition, at the end of last year, you bombed the Hufflepuff Headmaster's office and almost destroyed the mural in the corridor on the second floor. I counted, Last year, you got into trouble a total of 29 times, not counting those small things that deducted points, causing an economic loss of 16,783 galleons, and..."
"Okay, that's enough... It seems like I really need to get better at it... You, a data monster, have to count things like this. I'm also very desperate..."
Qin Weijie was really desperate at this time. Thinking about how Qin Weijie had warned him to keep a low profile when he was in school last year, now it seemed that what Qin Weijie had done was the opposite.
Still low-key? Maybe Qin Weijie has some misunderstanding about the word low-key...
A group of four people walked towards Car No. 1. Dumbledore hummed a tune cheerfully along the way, looking relaxed and contented. However, Tom felt something was wrong and whispered in Qin Weijie's ear.
"Professor Dumbledore seems to be injured."
"Nani?" Qin Weijie looked at Tom with confusion.
"Professor Dumbledore's left hand has been hanging down, as if he can't lift it up. And you didn't notice that when you get close to Professor Dumbledore's left side, you can feel a faint chill. The temperature on his left side seems to have dropped."
Qin Weijie took two quick steps to Professor Dumbledore's left side with hesitation. For a moment, Qin Weijie really felt a chill.
Although not obvious, there is definitely a drop in temperature.
At this time, the four of them finally entered the box at the front of the carriage. As soon as they entered the box, Qin Weijie said, "Are you injured? Professor."
Dumbledore chuckled, and looked at Tom instead of Qin Weijie: "You are indeed very keen, especially for the smell of black magic."
The scene was very embarrassing. You must know that a person who is keen on black magic is not a good person in the eyes of most people, and is often defined as evil by the world.
Being stared at by Dumbledore, Tom felt uneasy for a moment, unconsciously approached Qin Weijie, and subconsciously hid behind Qin Weijie.
Qin Weijie didn't say much about this. He already knew what kind of person Tom was. Being sensitive to black magic should be a factory setting. After all, Tom was going to become the Dark Lord in the future.
"Old Dengtou, what did you do? If your method can hurt you, then how strong must the other party be...is it a Dementor?"
Qin Weijie casually slumped down on the leather chair and opened his mouth like Lao Deng, simply not giving Dumbledore any face.
In fact, Dumbledore had long been accustomed to Qin Weijie calling him Lao Dengtou. At this time, Qin Weijie seemed to be casual and dissolute, but this was in private, and Qin Weijie still gave Dumbledore face in front of others.
Old Dengtou's nickname of Qin Weijie was used privately, and Dumbledore didn't have any discomfort with it. After all, Dumbledore's teaching method was relatively open.
"It seems that Mr. Anubis accidentally let it slip in front of you. It seems that after returning to school, we need to arrange a confinement for Mr. Anubis one night..." Dumbledore said with a chuckle.
Then he lifted up his left hand which was covered under the robe.
"I'll go! Old Dengtou, are you going to get a tan?"
Qin Weijie looked at Dumbledore's arm that had turned black and couldn't help but complain.
Dumbledore's entire left arm, from the shoulder to the palm, turned black. It looked like poisoning or frostbite. It looked very scary. Elena couldn't help but close her eyes at this time. Dare to take another look.
"Actually, it doesn't matter. Horace will be able to do something about it when we get back to school. It's just that I feel a little uncomfortable now. The whole arm feels like it's not mine." Dumbledore said, covering his left arm with his robe again, and then He said, "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about your problems."
"Us? What does it have to do with me? I didn't get into trouble with them!" Elena pointed at herself in disbelief and looked at Professor Dumbledore with big innocent eyes.
"The three of you went to the Western Suburbs Cemetery together."
Elena was stunned when Dumbledore said this, then shuddered and nodded. Qin Weijie and Tom also nodded one after another.
"Boys, you are in big trouble," Dumbledore said with a sigh.
"Is it the Eye of Danatus, the Eye of Death, or the Church of Death?"
Qin Weijie asked. When he heard Qin Weijie mention the 'Eye of Danatus', 'The Eye of Death' and the 'Church of Death', Dumbledore was startled at first and looked at Qin Weijie in surprise.
"You actually know about the 'Eye of Danatus'. Then you also know the relationship between the 'Eye of Danatus' and the Church of Death?"
Qin Weijie and Tom nodded noncommittally.
"It's good to know. I thought I would have to explain it to you for a long time." Dumbledore murmured, and then said: "In fact, the Dementor's attack on the train today was controlled by the Eye of Danatus. The real purpose was to Catch you three.
Fortunately, these dementors had no thought and wisdom, and mistook the empty train for a return train, so they jumped into the empty train. In the end, they were beaten away by us, which caused the train to arrive late at the station. The cause and effect of the matter is a big mistake. Speaking of which, the luck of the three of you is not generally good. "
