Chapter 64 Dream Messenger

Toby sat obediently opposite Dumbledore, but in a short period of time, he had exchanged glances with Al for countless times, and both of them had malicious expressions.

Dumbledore said helplessly: "Toby, the reason why I said these things is because I know that after what happened at the Pig's Head Bar tonight, you will definitely not let it go. But my frankness is not in exchange for your Unscrupulous - Quirrell may have a problem, but there is no way to prove it must be related to the Philosopher's Stone."

"Of course I do, Headmaster."

Toby immediately changed into a swearing expression: "I know what to do - no need for Veritaserum, but do you know the dream messenger?"

"Dream Messenger. Are you referring to the special enrollment method of the Waggadu School of Magic?"

"Yes, this is it."

Waggadu is a magic school located in Moon Mountain, Uganda, Africa.It is the largest of all wizarding schools, as it enrolls students from all over Africa.

The students who were allowed to study in Waggadu learned the news from the then principal through the dream messenger.The dreamer will leave a token for the child when they sleep - usually a stone with an inscription.When the child wakes up, he will find that he is holding it in his hand.No other school uses this method of student selection.

Al took a stone with the inscription on it from his belly pocket, and gave it to Toby.

Toby continued to explain: "Do you still remember Angela? She was originally the saint of one of the tribes in Africa, and now she is the vice-principal of the Waggadu School of Magic. As long as she agrees, I can send the dream messenger Borrowing it for a short time, and then relying on the ability of the dream messenger to spy on Quirrell's dream, he will definitely not be able to detect the abnormality, and will truthfully tell all the news I want to know."

The reason why Toby is so sure is that the dream messenger was originally a method used by the Waggadu School of Magic to eliminate risks-the biggest risk is to prevent students from revealing the possibility of the magical world, all of which come from the "Secrecy Act" consideration.

"Angela" Headmaster Dumbledore murmured: "I remember this name, but I also remember that you two caused a lot of trouble for a scepter, and she even wanted to chase you down later. Although you got rid of it, are you reconciled now?"

Toby suddenly became overjoyed.

"Stop joking, principal." He waved his hand and said, "She almost hates me. She even sent me a few yelling letters on Christmas day. How can it be reconciled? But don't worry, I'll just lie to her again." Well, she's just a naive little girl who doesn't understand the risks of ritual magic, and there's something wrong with that scepter—all in all, I don't dare to put such a dangerous thing in her hands, in case something happens Strange things are bad."

This time, Dumbledore did not deny Toby's proposal.

Toby also silently breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that the headmaster attached great importance to the boy Harry Potter. At first, he was worried that the headmaster would let Voldemort's threat go. Fortunately, nothing went wrong in the end. Threats are the first priority—and the dream messenger is much easier to accept than Veritaserum, otherwise there would be no little wizard willing to go to school in Waggadu, but would hide away from the beginning.

Neither of them mentioned that Toby deliberately exposed the organ protecting the Sorcerer's Stone, because they knew that the previous organ might be able to delay time, but the most important organ was still in the room protecting the Sorcerer's Stone. Toby was not even in the room where Snape and The previously arranged magic circle appeared in front of Quirrell, and it was mentioned that the Mirror of Erised would join in a few days - he and the principal had already discussed how to arrange the final mechanism.

The next thing to consider is the centaur sculpture, which was collected by Mundungus with great effort. It was restored to its original size after being cast by Toby and placed in the center of the office—the sculpture is a strong man The centaur, judging by the degree of wear and tear on the outside, this item has been around for many years.

There is also a name engraved on the bottom of the sculpture - House.

The matter of asking about House's origins still has to be left to Principal Dumbledore. The horsemen respect him and are willing to communicate with him.

Headmaster Dumbledore left the Office of Ancient Magic in the dark, and he returned to the headmaster's office, where Snape was waiting for him.

"What should we do next?" Snape asked with a gloomy face: "Toby can no longer stay out of it, do you still want to keep it a secret from him? There is something wrong with his previous state. If you want me to tell you, you should let him Stay in school for inspection once."

"No, Severus." Dumbledore said as if he hadn't heard the last sentence, "Toby already knew about Quirrell's abnormality. As for the influence of ancient magic, the interesting thing is that Toby returned to Hoag The reason for Watts may also contain the same purpose-he trusts me and you, so he is willing to accept our surveillance in disguise, which can also be said to stop him in time to prevent him from doing any irrational behavior. "

"Don't betray his trust, Severus, he knows you're a Death Eater, but still trusts you."

Snape sneered and said, "Trust me? He didn't do anything because I dared to appear in front of him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have completely forgiven me just because of Lily's death."

"That's why we have to keep it secret." Dumbledore sighed, "Now it's up to you not to betray my trust, Severus."

Snape was silent for a moment.

He didn't mention Harry Potter, let alone Dumbledore.

"I have long been a dead person, only living for Lily."

========================
Toby acted very quickly. After the principal left the ancient magic office, he took out the smiling straw doll again, poked its eyes with his hand, and asked in a low voice, "Angela? Angela ?”

The straw doll's eyes rolled, it spoke, and it made a female voice—the other party seemed to have just woken up from a dream, but it still reprimanded subconsciously: "Damn Toby Highmore "

It's almost exactly the same as the beginning of Hermione's fan letter.

"Where's the scepter? Give me back the scepter!"

"Lend me the dream messenger first."

"Are you kidding? Impossible! I know where you are now, don't force me to go to Hogwarts to find you!"

"Oh? Are you going to send the dream messenger here yourself?"

"Shut up! Don't mention the dream messenger! Where's the scepter?! That's our tribe's scepter, return it to me!"

"The people in your tribe want to kill you, and kill a lot of people casually—everyone around you—that scepter has been inducing you to use living sacrifices, don't you understand?"

"You lied to me! I want the scepter! Give me the scepter first!"

"Then you lend me the dream messenger first."

"You—Toby—you!"

After half an hour of repeated ink blots.

A transparent shadow floated out from the doll's body.

"I warn you, this is the last time! You must hand over the scepter next time!"

"certainly,"

As Toby took over the shadow, he shook his head at Al in disgust, and Al followed suit and smacked his mouth twice.

"Of course it's the last time."
