99. Rebirth from ashes

On Monday, William was heading to the Potions classroom, and Professor McGonagall's voice came from behind him.

"Mr. Taylor, Principal Dumbledore hopes you go there now"

"Okay, Professor McGonagall" William said.

"Oh by the way, the password is jelly slug," said Professor McGonagall.

William believed that Dumbledore had a candy complex. If Voldemort was gone, maybe Dumbledore would open a chocolate factory. He stopped in front of an ugly huge stone monster.

"Jelly Slug" William said.

The monster suddenly came alive and jumped to the side. The wall behind it cracked in two halves. Behind the wall was a spiral staircase, which was slowly moving upward, just like an escalator in the Muggle World. William stepped on it and heard a rumbling sound behind it, and the wall closed again. The stairs were rotating and rising higher and higher. Finally, William, who felt a little dizzy, saw a shiny oak door in front of him, with a brass door knocker in the shape of a lion-headed beast.

"Don't the old guy feel troublesome?" William walked out of the stairs with a heavy head and a slight slight

"Dongdongdongdongdongdong" William knocked on the door three times.

"Please come in" Dumbledore's voice came, and William pushed open the door and walked in

This is a spacious, beautiful circular room full of funny little sounds. On the table with long legs, there are many strange silverware, spraying out small waves of smoke. The walls are full of portraits of old men and women, who are snoring gently in their respective frames. William does not know if these guys have been sleeping all the time, but it is not yet noon. There is also a huge table in the room, with the feet of the table in the shape of claws. The one behind the table

On the shelf was a tattered, wrinkled wizard hat - a branch hat. On a tall gilded branch behind the door, there was an old bird, which was Fox, but now it looked like a turkey with half its feathers pulled away. And the two birds of Prajna that shone brightly two days ago. Fox spent a lot of magic to cure William. The Phoenix would be reborn when the magic power was bottoming out or encountering some unexpected situations, and now it was almost time.

"Principal Dumbledore, are you looking for me?" William said with a smile

"Sit up, William, try this?" Dumbledore brought a pile of cockroaches in a silver plate, and there was a dense ball of stuff inside. William looked at it and his scalp was numb.

"No need for the principal, I prefer iced lemon juice." William looked at the lemon juice on Dumbledore's table.

"Oh hehe, of course," Dumbledore poured William a glass of iced lemon juice.

"This hateful old guy, I have lemon juice and I have to give it to me first." William smiled and cursed in his heart.

"Principal, I want to thank you and Fox for their help in the hospital," William said, quenching his thirst.

"Oh, it's all Fox's credit." Dumbledore pointed at Fox, who was pecking at his feathers.

"Fox is about to pass away?" William asked Dumbledore

"From its recent signs, yes," Dumbledore said, and William stood up, and the two came to the branches of Fox. William looked at Fox carefully, and William could see that Fox was very uncomfortable now. It kept pulling its feathers, and its bright feathers kept falling. Fox's black eyes faintly shed tears. It looked up at Dumbledore and William,

"I didn't expect Fox to be so painful before Nirvana," William said

"In fact, we should be happy for Fox. After rebirth, it will gain stronger vitality than before. A beautiful future can only be achieved through continuous hardship, and the Phoenix knows this." Dumbledore said with a smile.

At this time, Fox suddenly spread his wings and looked up at the ceiling. Its whole body suddenly caught fire, and it had turned into a fireball; then it screamed and disappeared, leaving only a pile of ashes on the floor that had not yet completely extinguished. William looked at it all in amazement.

"Phoenixes are really a very charming life. They can carry extremely heavy things, their tears are healing, and they are also particularly loyal pets." Dumbledore said

William looked down at the ashes, a small, wrinkled little bird poked its head out of the ashes. Its appearance, yes, was a little ugly.

"It's very beautiful most of the time, with amazing red and golden feathers all over it." Dumbledore said with a smile, and he slowly walked back to the chair behind the table and sat down.

"William, I can't figure out something I'm looking for you today." Dumbledore stared at him with his light blue, penetrating gaze.

"You ask, Principal Dumbledore." William had known for a long time that he could not escape today. He put down the lemon juice in his hand.

"Miss Granger told us about your discovery of the secret room, and I want to know where you heard the name of Tom Riddle." Dumbledore looked at William

"I have seen Tom Riddle's information in my grandfather's office. Although it was written with confidential information, I was very naughty, so I opened it and browsed it." William kicked the ball directly to the old man. Dumbledore would not ask the old man about this matter anyway, and the Dark Magic Association had Tom Riddle, that is, Voldemort's information was very normal.

"Then how did you get into the secret room?" Dumbledore said

"Oh, that's what Harry learned." William told the truth, Dumbledore would verify with Harry.

Dumbledore glanced at William sly.

"William, do you know who Tom Riddle is?"

"Is it Voldemort?" William asked.

"Yes, Tom is Voldemort now. You should be familiar with him. He once possessed and fought with you in the Forbidden Forest in the first grade in the Forbidden Forest." Dumbledore looked at William, who was not afraid of the name. He was very satisfied with William's performance. William said nothing and sat there.

"Voldemort wants to be resurrected and wants to avenge himself for losing his power," Dumbledore said.

"He wants to kill Harry." William continued.

William understood what Dumbledore meant. Dumbledore hoped that William could protect Harry, so he kept talking about how Voldemort was like. He wanted to know what William's attitude was, whether he was neutral or on his side.

"Yes" Dumbledore admired William very much

"Harry is a boy who survived the disaster, I believe Harry is just not far away from his friends." William took a sip of lemonade and said, "He is safe."
