Chapter 698 That Bowl Will Always Be Empty Forever

Unlike the movie where he looked like he had drunk fake wine after taking Fuling Erguotou, Harry felt that he already had an idea to get that memory, and he was confident that his method would be successful.

After the funeral, Harry, Hagrid and Slughorn returned to Hagrid's hut. Hagrid and Slughorn drank while Harry sat aside and watched quietly. With all this.

Soon, both Hagrid and Slughorn were drunk, and Hagrid fell down on the wooden table, snoring deafeningly.

Harry finally stood up, walked over and sat down in front of Slughorn.

Slughorn looked drunk. He looked at Harry's emerald green eyes, and seemed to see another young girl through Harry. He said softly: "You know? Harry, I raised a The fish’s name is Francis, it’s very precious to me, very precious…”

"But one day, I went downstairs and found that it had disappeared. It was gone... It's weird, isn't it? But I thought, this is life... you live well... but suddenly... it's gone... No more... no more..."

Slughorn whispered, and Harry saw a tear in his eye.

Although Slughorn didn't say it explicitly, Harry could guess that this fish might be related to himself, no, it should be said to be his mother.

Harry did not speak, but continued to stare at Slughorn in front of him with his emerald green eyes.

Slughorn took advantage of his drunkenness and continued: "Francis was given to me by a student. It was in the spring. That afternoon I found an extra bowl on my table. The water in the bowl was very shallow, only a few inches. High, with a petal floating on it..."

"I just took a second look, and the petals started to sink... When it was about to sink to the bottom, the petals suddenly changed... and turned into a small fish. It's really a wonderful magic... Breathtaking... That lily petal It was Lily who gave it to me...your mother..."

"The day I went downstairs...the day the bowl was empty...your mother also...Harry, I know the purpose of your coming here, but I can't say it, it's over..."

Slughorn wiped the tears from his eyes, looked at Harry's face seriously, and said choked.

Looking at the gloomy Slughorn in front of him, Harry said softly: "Professor, do you know why I survived? Look at my forehead, the night I left the scar... it was all because of her, because She sacrificed herself because she refused to leave me alone! Because of her love, she defeated Voldemort!"

Harry pointed to the lightning scar on his forehead, his voice becoming more sonorous.

Harry stood up and said seriously: "Professor, we can defeat Voldemort, we will definitely be able to defeat Voldemort. Voldemort is not as scary as he was back then, isn't he?"

"But we must know what the Tom Riddle asked in your office many years ago, and what you said!"

Harry stared at Slughorn's face and said in a deep voice.

Slughorn just kept shaking his head in fear and kept silent.

Harry's tone became lighter again, and he was heard to say softly: "Professor, please be brave, like my mother... Otherwise, you will be sorry for her, otherwise, her death will be in vain... Otherwise...that bowl, the bowl with Francis, will always be empty...forever...forever..."

Listening to Harry's words, Slughorn's thoughts seemed to go back to the girl who gave him Frances more than ten years ago, the genius potions girl from the Muggle world...

Slughorn's lips continued to tremble, and there was a battle between heaven and man in his mind. He raised his right hand tremblingly.

For a long time, Slughorn looked at Harry's emerald green eyes that were exactly the same as Lily's, and with a slightly trembling tone, he said pleadingly: "Please... don't think too bad of me after reading this... you I had no idea what he was capable of at the time..."

Slughorn put the wand between his eyebrows with his right hand, and he slowly pulled out a silver-white thread and put it in a small glass test tube.

…

Principal's office.

Dumbledore calmly looked at Lynn and Irina sitting opposite, and said: "I have read the memories that Harry brought back, and we can confirm that there are seven Horcruxes made by Voldemort. In this case, the remaining The only Horcruxes left are Orochi and Harry."

Lin En said calmly: "Using the vision stolen by the soul possession curse, I roughly figured out the movement patterns of that big snake. I am sure that I will catch that big snake within seven days. I will use that big snake as Neville test.”

Dumbledore asked with interest: "A test? A test like Draco's?"

Lynn shook his head and said: "No, Draco's test is to prove his position. Only by destroying Voldemort's Horcrux with his own hands can he ensure that he is completely on the opposite side of Voldemort... Of course, in Lu Xiu's case, After killing half of the Death Eaters, they have done this..."

"As for the test I gave Neville, in fact, it is an assessment of whether he can become the heir of the D.A. Army. You know, Professor Dumbledore, it is impossible for Irina and I to stay in Hogwarts Castle."

"Harry also has the ambition to become an Auror. As for Irving and Astoria, they are destined to become Demon Lord-level wizards, so they will naturally not stay in the D.A. Army. Among the remaining candidates, Neville has both the courage of Gryffindor and the loyalty and kindness of Hufflepuff."

"After we leave Hogwarts Castle, Neville is the best candidate to stay in the castle and develop future members of the D.A. Army. After all, Neville's employment goal is to stay in the castle as a professor of Herbology, isn't it?"

Lynn said so.

Letting Neville kill Nagini is naturally not Lynn's bad taste to see the original famous scene. Lynn is not so bored. Letting Neville become famous for killing Nagini and become the future leader of the D.A. Army is his real purpose.

The successor of the D.A. Army...

Dumbledore looked at Lynn and Irina with deep eyes. The current members of the D.A. Army will become independent in the British magic world in the future, and the future D.A. Army will naturally start to be cultivated in the magic school of Hogwarts.

If Neville is allowed to lead the future D.A. Army and train more young wizards, Dumbledore will be able to rest assured. Neville is brave, loyal, kind, and does not have those overflowing ambitions.

Letting Neville lead the future D.A. Army will make Dumbledore feel more at ease than letting Lynn and Irina lead it! (End of this chapter)
