Hogwarts: This Wizard Is Not Scientific

"He could also hide in the Forbidden Forest," Hermione guessed.

Andy thought about it and decided that there were four.

"If Quirrell learns Animagus, he can pretend to be the little wizard's pet." Hermione continued to analyze.

Andy: "..."

Great, that's five.

"The Space Extension Charm is indeed a good idea. He can put himself in a small bag and send an owl to Hogwarts." Hermione glanced at Andy.

Andy swore that if anyone ever said Hogwarts was the safest place in the wizarding world again, he would hang him up and beat him.

It's not safe at all!

Look, just two first-year wizards have come up with so many ways to sneak into Hogwarts.

"If that's the case, then we can only remain unchanged in the face of change."

Andy had a headache. It seemed that he really needed to be more careful in the future.

Hermione looked at Andy with worry. She couldn't think of any way to prevent Quirrell's revenge.

After the History of Magic get out of class, the little witch took Andy and ran to the library quickly. She decided to read a few more books to see if she could find a way to deal with Quirrell.

"Andy, you are here."

Not long after Andy arrived at the library, Harry and Ron came over together.

"Shh!"

Andy made a silent gesture, motioning for the two to look at Madam Pince, then stood up and said, "Let's talk outside."

"Hermione, I'll be back in a moment."

When they got outside the library, Andy asked curiously, "Are you two okay?"

Harry first glanced at Ron, then asked solemnly: "Andy, do you know Nicolas Flamel?"

Andy: "..."

Did these two find the Philosopher's Stone?

It seems like they both had a very fulfilling Christmas!

"Nicolas Flamel, full name Nicolas Flamel, was a Frenchman. He was the most famous alchemist in the 14th century. His greatest achievement was the creation of the Philosopher's Stone."

Andy explained slowly: "The Philosopher's Stone can not only turn metal into gold, but it can also make the Elixir of Life. If I remember correctly, Mr. Nicolas Flamel is 662 years old this year."

Harry and Ron looked at each other at the same time.

"Snape must be trying to steal the Philosopher's Stone!"

Ron confidently guessed, "Think about it, the Philosopher's Stone can not only make people immortal, but it can also turn metal into gold. Possessing the Philosopher's Stone is equivalent to possessing countless wealth."

At the end, Ron's face was full of envy.

Nicolas Flamel is so happy!

"This must be it!"

Harry's face was full of solemnity. "If Snape gets the Philosopher's Stone, everything will be over!"

Andy: "..."

Shouldn't the most important function of the Philosopher's Stone be that it can make people immortal?

Also, how come everything ended when Snape got the Philosopher's Stone?

Is he up to something?

"Uh...what are you talking about?" Andy looked confused.

It's time to show off your acting skills.

"You said Snape wanted to steal the Philosopher's Stone?"

Andy asked in confusion: "But as far as I know, the Philosopher's Stone should be in the hands of Mr. Nicolas Flamel, and no one in the wizarding world knows where he is hiding now."

Harry and Ron looked at each other again, Ron nodded slightly, and Harry said solemnly: "Andy, the Philosopher's Stone is now in Hogwarts, and Snape wants to steal it."

"why?"

Andy still looked puzzled. "If Mr. Flamel gave the Philosopher's Stone to Headmaster Dumbledore, Headmaster Dumbledore should have kept it with him."

"No one in the wizarding world can steal anything from Headmaster Dumbledore."

Harry said mysteriously: "Andy, come with me."

The three of them walked to a corner of the castle. Harry looked around cautiously. Seeing that there was no one around, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Someone gave me an invisibility cloak for Christmas this year."

"That's really cool!" Ron interjected.

Harry continued, "Because of the attack on Malfoy, the Ministry of Magic sent people to Hogwarts to investigate. When Ron and I were strolling at night... we saw with our own eyes that Snape sneaked to the corridor on the fourth floor."

"Andy, you should also know about the invasion of Gringotts, right? The time when Gringotts was invaded happened to be the same day that Hagrid and I went to Gringotts to withdraw money."

"Hagrid took something from Gringotts!"

Ron added at this time: "Harry and I went to find Hagrid, and Hagrid accidentally revealed the name Nicolas Flamel."

Dumbledore really took great pains!

Andy had to sigh like this!

For something as important as the Philosopher's Stone, he actually sent Hagrid to Gringotts to get it back - couldn't he have gone himself?

Shouldn't the headmaster be very busy during the Hogwarts holidays?

Even if Dumbledore had some personal matters to attend to, it would only take him two Apparations to get something from Gringotts.

Could it be that Dumbledore couldn't even spare a little time?

Obviously, Dumbledore's purpose was to let Harry see the Philosopher's Stone with his own eyes so that he could make reasonable inferences about all this.

Then volunteer to join.

I have to say that Dumbledore really has some of the demeanor of Jiang Ziya, those who are willing will take the bait!

Andy couldn't help but think in his heart: "Could it be that Dumbledore is trying to trick me as well?"

It’s not impossible!

Harry and Ron are two poor students. Even if they knew the name Nicolas Flamel, they probably didn't know who this person was.

Andy and Ron knew each other before they entered school.

Andy is a top student, so Harry and Ron will definitely ask Andy about Nicolas Flamel.

Not only that, Snape had reminded Andy before Christmas to be careful of Quirrell.

If Andy's guess was correct, then Dumbledore's plan was obvious.

On the one hand, he told Andy through Snape that Quirrell was a bad guy and it was he who attacked Malfoy.

On the other hand, he took advantage of Andy's friendship with Ron and told Andy about the Philosopher's Stone.

At that time, in order to protect himself, Andy will definitely take the initiative to join forces with Harry to fight against Quirrell.

Chapter 69 Andy: Snape must have attacked Malfoy

It must be said that Dumbledore is really a master of planning. He seems to have done nothing, but he can make things develop in the direction he wants without being noticed.

Even though Quirrell was kicked out of Hogwarts, Harry still knew about the Philosopher's Stone.

And looking at Harry's expression, he seemed ready to protect the Philosopher's Stone to the death.

"ok, I get it."

Andy spread his hands and said, "We will write a letter to Headmaster Dumbledore and tell him that someone is trying to steal the Philosopher's Stone again. We will ask Headmaster Dumbledore to be more vigilant and it would be best if he could carry the Philosopher's Stone with him at all times."

"Great!"

Harry looked excited, "If that's the case, Snape can't steal the Philosopher's Stone."

Ron was a little depressed, "But this way, we can't expose Snape's conspiracy."

Wow, I didn't expect you had such a plan!

Andy immediately looked at Ron with admiration.

"You can write down your guess in the letter and see if Headmaster Dumbledore will believe it."

Andy didn't want to be involved in Dumbledore's plan.

Being involved in the Philosopher's Stone incident was a small matter - after all, the whole thing was part of Dumbledore's plan, and with Dumbledore's care, the final result was nothing more than a safe bet.

But preventing Voldemort from getting the Philosopher's Stone is a big deal!

Andy didn't want to offend Voldemort for no reason, as that would do him no good.

Most importantly, Andy didn't want to be arranged.

It’s just playing chess, I can do that too!

Andy decided to use Harry as a chess piece and play a game against Dumbledore.

"Come on, let's go to the library."

Back in the library, Andy asked Harry and Ron to write a letter each, writing down the information they knew, their guesses, and their ideas for dealing with the situation, and then send them to Dumbledore together.

Andy spread the parchment on the table and dipped the quill into the ink.

Wrote:

Hello, Headmaster Dumbledore.

I'm Andy Collins, a first-year student in Ravenclaw. I believe you still remember me, right?

Harry Potter and Ron Weasley came to see me today and told me about the Philosopher's Stone.

They thought Snape was trying to steal the Philosopher's Stone.

But we all know that the person who really wanted to steal the Philosopher's Stone was Quirinus Quirrell.

It is too unsafe to keep the Philosopher's Stone in Hogwarts. Not only is there a risk of the Philosopher's Stone being stolen, but even the lives of the young wizards may be threatened at any time.

The previous attack on Draco Malfoy was an example.

I blamed myself for this for a few days, but I didn't realize that it was all because of the Philosopher's Stone.

As the headmaster of Hogwarts, you are responsible for the safety of all young wizards and return the Philosopher's Stone to its owner, Mr. Nicolas Flamel, for safekeeping.

Or find a place where no one knows and hide it.

I heard from Hermione that Muggles have something called a rocket, and you can use the rocket to launch the Philosopher's Stone into outer space.

If Mr. Flamel no longer needs the Philosopher's Stone, you can also destroy it.

Quirrell is no longer in Hogwarts, and keeping the Philosopher's Stone in the school will only attract the greed of those greedy people.

Anyway, it's really unsafe to keep the Philosopher's Stone in Hogwarts.

For both of us!

Maybe you have your own plans, but you shouldn't gamble with the lives of all of our little wizards!

—Andy Collins.

Very good, General!

In just one short letter, Andy first blamed the attack on Malfoy on the Philosopher's Stone - implying that Dumbledore should be held responsible.

Then, Andy proposed several ways to deal with the Philosopher's Stone.

First, return the Philosopher's Stone to Nicolas Flamel.

Second, use a rocket to launch the Philosopher's Stone into outer space.

The third, which is also the solution in the original book, is to destroy the Philosopher's Stone.

These three methods blocked all of Dumbledore's paths.

If Dumbledore insisted on leaving the Philosopher's Stone in Hogwarts, he would be irresponsible for the safety of the lives of all the young wizards.

"Next, we just have to wait for Dumbledore to make his move!"
