The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

As Snape's words fell, the eyes of all the people in the office turned to Harry.

This made Harry a little panicked.

"I... I went to the death anniversary dinner, and there were hundreds of ghosts present! They can all testify for me!"

"Even a three-year-old knows that a ghost dinner is a nightmare for human beings. Why do you leave a good Halloween dinner and go to a messy death anniversary dinner?" Snape He kept approaching Harry and said, "Also, the end of the death anniversary dinner is much earlier than the Halloween dinner, why didn't you come back earlier?"

"Because...because I'm too tired and want to go back to the lounge..."

"lie!"

Snape's sudden sharp shout interrupted Harry's words in an instant, and Filch, who had only reacted after seeing this, also echoed:

"Yes! That's right! It's a lie!"

Hearing the words of these two, Harry's little face turned pale, and he could only look at Dumbledore pleadingly.

"Okay, don't talk about it." Dumbledore waved his hand and said, "You can go. We will investigate the follow-up of this matter. You also go out, Lockhart."

"But……"

Filch wanted to say something more, but was blocked by Dumbledore's eyes.

As for Harry, he started walking out of the office as soon as Dumbledore's voice fell, and his footsteps were almost running.

Looking at the backs of everyone leaving one after another, Link had no intention of leaving.

He knew very well that although Dumbledore didn't say it explicitly, he would definitely come to him for questioning in the future.

Sure enough, the door to the office had just closed when Dumbledore looked towards Link.

It was a very complicated look, with self-blame and distress, but more of a vigilance.

"Link, did your big friend do this?"

Dumbledore spoke slowly.

Although it is an interrogative sentence, the tone is very sure.

Seeing this, Link didn't make any excuses, just nodded and said:

"It should be it."

"So...what do you want to say about this matter?"

"I know what you want to say, Headmaster Dumbledore." Link, who had activated Occlumency, said with a blank face, "but this matter really has nothing to do with me. In fact, since that night last semester, I have It has lost contact with Arkham, it seems to be avoiding me on purpose."

Dumbledore was silent for a moment, then got closer, looked at Link and said:

"Is everything you said true?"

Dumbledore's tone was gentle, and the expression on his face was more sincere and kind.

This made Link feel that a warmth gradually developed in his body, very gently expelling the effect of Occlumency. This feeling was really comfortable, so comfortable that Link's originally indifferent expression gradually eased.

However, in the next moment, a cold voice suddenly rang.

"Dumbledore!"

It's Snape!

The warmth faded away, and Link shivered suddenly, and at the same time, dense beads of sweat came out from his forehead.

'It's so dangerous! ’

Link couldn't help but took a few steps back.

If it wasn't for Snape's sudden voice just now, Dumbledore would have broken through Link's Occlumency and thus invaded his brain.

And Dumbledore, whose plan fell through, looked helplessly at Snape who was looking at him indifferently, and finally looked at Link again and said:

"Link, does it really matter to you?"

"Of course it doesn't matter!"

Link said coldly.

Dumbledore's actions just now had made his impression in Link's mind fall to the extreme.

Seeing this, Dumbledore sighed and said:

"I believe in you, but all I believe in is you, Link."

Having said that, Dumbledore suddenly paused, then looked at Snape with questioning eyes, and continued to say when he saw that the other party did not intend to stop:

"Don't you always wonder what's wrong with you? I can tell you today."

"What you have is a rare disease called hypersomnia. Its existence causes two completely different souls to appear in your body vying for control of your body. It's not a big deal if that's the case. Yes, but the problem is that your other soul is powerful and evil, full of hatred for this world, and trying to destroy everything. We also gave him a name, called Mike. "

"Link, you are a kind child, I can trust you 100%. But Mike is different. As far as I know, he can do this kind of thing completely."

Dumbledore's narration ended.

However, the expression on Link's face did not change at all.

This is actually the effect of Occlumency.

In fact, Link has been said to be a little confused now.

After all, there is too much information in Dumbledore's words.

Fortunately, with the blessing of Occlumency, Link could still conduct a rational analysis, and after analyzing for a while, Link's mood stabilized.

Thinking about it carefully, what Dumbledore said had nothing to do with him.

Link has never had any problems with his body since he crossed into this world, and he has never had the symptoms of split personality.

Therefore, he speculates that the two original souls in this body are likely to have died.

So he had the opportunity to occupy the magpie's nest.

On the other hand, Dumbledore's expression, who had waited for a while for Link to accept the reality, became a little complicated.

The reason why he had been hiding it from Link before was because he was afraid that Link would not be able to accept this reality and his personality would collapse.

But now it seems that Link's psychological defense line with the blessing of Occlumency has grown.

Of course, this also has disadvantages.

Just like just now, if it wasn't for Occlumency, he would have invaded Link's brain to find the answer by himself.

Shaking his head indistinctly, Dumbledore said softly:

"Link, I'm sorry. Well, I will let Professor Snape continue to improve the potion formula according to your situation, and increase the dose, while observing your recent behavior to judge your situation. Regarding this, I I hope you can understand."

"Of course." Link said without hesitation, "but I hope you can strengthen the investigation of this matter! I really want to catch the guy who manipulated Arkham to do bad things and teach him a lesson. One meal!"

"Don't worry, we will do our best, this is my responsibility as headmaster of Hogwarts!"

Dumbledore said solemnly, and made a gesture of invitation after saying that, indicating that Link can leave.

Seeing this, Link didn't hesitate and walked out of the office, leaving only Dumbledore and Snape inside.

"Tsk!"

Link, who closed the door again, frowned and smacked his mouth, turned and walked towards the Hufflepuff lounge.

However, before taking two steps, he found a dark figure squatting in a corner not far away.
