HP: White Lord of Slytherin

Chapter 295 Further Monitoring

Even though he accidentally took the love potion, I heard that Ron still had a fight with Lavender.

But within a few days, Gloria and Draco saw Ron carrying Lavender on his back in the corridor, and they seemed to have returned to their former intimacy.

She recently thought of letting the house-elves keep an eye on the actions of Crabbe and Goyle, but Headmaster Dumbledore had already designated an activity area for the Slytherin house-elves.

The eighth floor is not a free activity area. It would be bad to break the rules rashly. We have to wait for the principal to come back.

As for letting Harry order Dobby, Gloria didn't want to talk about the crown horcrux for the time being, and waited for Dumbledore to come back and let him talk about it.

Grindelwald went to Germany to carry out the operation, and Dumbledore was invited there perhaps for peace of mind.

Gloria wondered how Dumbledore would arrange it when she told him at the end of the school year that the curse had been lifted.

The library was relatively quiet with Madam Pince in charge.

Draco left a letter for his family in the small room in the Chamber of Secrets, and she wanted to find some books to help her with her homework.

Passing by several bookshelves, I saw Hermione sitting at the table writing furiously. The parchment was so long that it almost dragged on the ground.

Gloria remembered that there was no homework this long, so she walked over curiously and asked, "Hermione, what homework are you doing?"

Hermione looked up, smiled and said, "It's not homework, it's a reply letter to my boyfriend."

There was so much going on during Christmas, and I was so busy after school started, that I forgot to ask Hermione about Krum's visit.

"Are your parents doing okay in the Muggle world?" she asked.

"So far, I haven't encountered any danger." Hermione said, "Sometimes I feel lucky that my parents are Muggles. Death Eaters will destroy buildings in the Muggle world, but their main targets are still wizards..."

It was a sad thing, and she said no more.

Gloria asked, "How was the meeting between your parents and Krum?"

Perhaps thinking of the situation at that time, Hermione smiled and said: "Although my parents don't know much about Quidditch, they can understand that he is an athlete. They think that Wicky is very gentle and like him very much."

She continued, "It's just that we are not in the same country, so my mother was a little worried, but in the end she told me to just go ahead and love without worry."

"Your mother is right," Gloria said, "As long as you like each other, but does the letter really have to be so long?"

Hermione wrote a few words at the end, "It's almost done, if I write more he'll be able to read it more."

Gloria said, "Did Harry receive the time Headmaster Dumbledore wanted him to attend class?"

"No." Hermione asked, "Is there something wrong?"

"Nothing, I just wanted to say something. The principal didn't go to the auditorium, and I didn't even know if he had come back."

Hermione said, "I'll put Harry on notice and let you know when I get back."

·

Soon it was time for the match between Gryffindor and Hufflepuff. Harry was almost hit on the head by the ball, but he eventually won.

It was also after this that Headmaster Dumbledore finally returned to school.

In the morning in the auditorium, Gloria was stopped by Harry just as she was about to leave for class.

"Leah, Headmaster Dumbledore is back at school. I have classes tonight. Do you want to go see him?"

"Yes, I have something to tell him." Gloria said, "I'll be there around nine o'clock. Please tell the principal."

"Okay, I'll leave first."

Harry ran out with his bag.

Draco asked curiously, "What's going on?"

"About the Overwatch," she said. "Crabbe and Goyle. I want to know what they're fixing."

Draco said, "Do you think they have other tasks besides finding the tiara?"

"Yes." She nodded, "Otherwise I can't imagine why they were so anxious that they didn't give up repairing the crown when they were looking for it."

Classes went on as normal during the day, and in the evening, around nine o'clock, just like last time, Gloria went to the principal's office.

When I arrived this time, the office was open and there was no need to give a password.

After entering, the meditation basin was glowing with silver light, and the vortex in it indicated that it had been used not long ago.

"What did you tell Harry during your lessons?"

"Tom's life story, and the Gaunt family." Dumbledore said, "This time it's the memory of an elf. Her owner is a distant descendant of the founder of Hufflepuff. She keeps the Hufflepuff gold cup and Slytherin locket. The locket was bought by Borgin and Burke from Tom's mother."

He sighed, "He killed someone and put the blame on the elf Haoqi."

Gloria sneered, "I thought he would just admit it, but it seems he already knew how to hide."

"Based on this memory, it can be confirmed that the Horcrux given to Bellatrix was the Hufflepuff Cup." Dumbledore said, "He got three of the four founders' things. Tom was still very young at that time. He was really an excellent wizard."

Just as Slughorn thought, if he went to the Ministry of Magic, he would definitely become the youngest Minister.

Gloria said, "Harry already knows about the Horcruxes and came to ask me about it. I didn't tell him everything. I only mentioned the diary and the locket, and the ring he knew about himself. Will you tell him the rest later?"

"I'll probably tell him next time we have class." Dumbledore just put his left hand on the table. "As for the remaining three Horcruxes, I will reveal the snake. The Hufflepuff Cup will be kept secret for now, to prevent their dream team from breaking into Gringotts. As for the one in his own body, of course I will tell you at the last minute."

Gloria almost twitched her lips. The name "Dream Team" was given to them by Professor Snape in their second year.

"I see." She said, "Actually, the main reason I came to you this time is to ask you to approve my elf to go to the eighth floor."

Dumbledore understood immediately, "Are you going to monitor Crabbe and Goyle?"

"Yeah." She nodded. "Recently I discovered that they are not only looking for something, but also repairing an item, but I don't know what it is. I hope the elf can take the opportunity to enter the Room of Requirement and find out what they are repairing."

Dumbledore said, "Yes, I am glad you asked me for it in advance."

In fact, with Gloria's identity, she could just let the elf go to the eighth floor directly.

"You are the headmaster of Hogwarts, so of course I have to discuss this with you." Gloria said, "Besides, Crabbe and Goyle can't escape, so there is no need to rush."

Dumbledore looked a little tired and lowered his eyes. "You are doubting what they are repairing. It is also a task given by Tom."

"Pretty much," she said. "Given their current situation, I can't think of anything that would be worth their time to fix."

Dumbledore sighed, "Although I just returned to school, I heard that they often failed to complete their essays and were put in detention several times."

Gloria guessed that it was the portrait that told him. Since the principal had mentioned the abnormalities of these two people, even if he didn't expose them, he had to know their usual movements.

"Anyway, when their confinement is over, they will definitely go to the eighth floor. I believe it won't take long to figure it out." Gloria stood up and said, "It's getting late. Headmaster, go to bed early."
