The Wizard of Hogwarts is Unscientific

Chapter 676: Late-night meeting with Dumbledore
"I never heard of such a thing, Mr. Collins."

Professor McGonagall glanced at Andy and said, "I'm glad that your Transfiguration has improved, but we'd better hurry up because you're about to have class."

Uh……

"Okay!" Andy shrugged helplessly.

In fact, Andy did not find any relevant records in the restricted area. The reason why he asked this question was just to hear Professor McGonagall's opinion.

She was an expert in Transfiguration after all.

Andy was not surprised to get such an answer.

From this point of view, Transfiguration is indeed inferior to Alchemy in some aspects.

Arriving at Professor McGonagall's office, Professor McGonagall sorted out the lesson plans needed for the class and said straight to the point: "Mr. Collins, you should have heard about what happened yesterday."

"I regret."

Andy asked, "Is there anything I can help you with?"

"Yes……"

Professor McGonagall hesitated for a moment, frowned and said, "I contacted Dumbledore. He had a problem and won't be back until tomorrow."

"He asked me to ask you to meet someone on his behalf."

At this point, Professor McGonagall took out a piece of paper and handed it to Andy. "This is the time and place of the meeting... I originally wanted to go by myself, but Dumbledore specifically asked you to go. I think... he must have his own considerations."

Andy took the note, opened it and took a quick look at it.

The meeting time is ten o'clock tonight.

The location is on the second floor of the Hog's Head Pub in Hogsmeade Village.

Who to meet?

Andy frowned slightly...could it be Snape?
"I see!"

Andy nodded, "I'll be there on time."

After a pause, Andy asked again: "Professor McGonagall, Hogwarts is protected by a magic barrier. How can I get out? Although I know the locations of several secret passages, they are now blocked."

Professor McGonagall glanced at Andy and Hermione and said, "Dumbledore told me that there is a secret passage in the castle that leads directly to the Hog's Head. It's in the Room of Requirement."

"This secret passage has a special feature, which is that it can only be opened from the Room of Requirement."

That's it!

No wonder Professor McGonagall called Hermione over. It turns out that this secret passage requires two people to work together to enter and exit freely.

"I know!" said Andy.

"Okay, you guys should go to class."

Professor McGonagall sorted out the documents on her desk and said with a faint smile, "I'm going to teach you too."

Uh…is the first period Transfiguration class?
……

The day's classes ended quickly.

At half past nine in the evening, Andy and Hermione came to the corridor outside the Room of Requirement.

[I need a secret passage to the Hog's Head]

Andy walked back and forth in the corridor three times, and the door of the Room of Requirement slowly appeared.

"Andy, let's go!" Hermione urged.

"I'm thinking……"

Andy didn't rush in, but asked another question, "If the Room of Requirement can really 'grant whatever you want', then theoretically, it can lead to anywhere in the world."

Hermione felt a headache when she heard this.

Again!
Every time this happens, Andy always has a lot of strange questions.

He is just a curious baby!
"Don't forget, we promised Professor McGonagall and Professor Dumbledore...Andy, we have to hurry." Hermione said anxiously.

"The meeting time is ten o'clock, and it's only half past nine. I came out early on purpose just to try out the ability of the Room of Requirement." Andy said calmly.

Hermione: "..."

“You can try again tomorrow!!”

Hermione gritted her teeth, grabbed Andy's clothes, and dragged Andy into the Room of Requirement. "Hermione, aren't you curious?" Andy asked.

Hermione glared at Andy and said with a headache: "At least, tonight, you should be less curious!"

Andy: "..."

OK!

"Then I'll go."

Andy instructed, "Don't forget to open the door for me."

Hermione rolled her eyes at Andy and said, "I won't forget it."

The secret passage was a bit damp and old, and it looked like it was quite old.

Andy walked in the secret passage for about twenty minutes and finally reached the end of the secret passage.

The exit looks like the back of a portrait.

click!
Pushing open the portrait, there is a bedroom outside.

Andy glanced around, and then was slightly stunned, "Professor Dumbledore? You are not..."

Andy suddenly reacted before he finished speaking.

Dumbledore has the Phoenix as his super assistant, so he can come back whenever he wants.

The question now is, why did he hide his whereabouts?

"Good evening, Mr. Collins." Dumbledore nodded as a greeting.

"Uh, good evening!"

Andy walked into the house, and after sensing that there was no anti-Apparition magic here, he closed the door of the secret passage with confidence.

"Professor, what's the matter with you calling me here?" Andy asked straight to the point.

"Take a seat first!" said Dumbledore.

After Andy sat down, Dumbledore looked at Andy with sharp eyes, "Grindelwald escaped from prison... Collins, did you know about this?"

"I guessed some of it," said Andy.

After Grindelwald learned from Andy about the possibility of fusing mind and magic, he was determined to give it a try.

Both as a wizard and for his unfinished business, Grindelwald would not pass up this opportunity.

Dumbledore was silent for a moment.

There is no doubt that Grindelwald's escape is closely related to Andy.

It is true that Andy's purpose in contacting Grindelwald was just to ask him for advice on magic, but Andy's success in magic also opened Grindelwald's eyes to a new world.

For a higher realm of magic.

For the greater good.

Grindelwald chose to break his oath and come out again.

However, at this moment, looking at the 'culprit' who caused Grindelwald to escape from prison, Dumbledore didn't know what to say for a moment.

As a student at Hogwarts, Andy asked Grindelwald for advice on magic... This is undoubtedly a failure of Hogwarts' education.

In other words, it was the failure of Headmaster Dumbledore.

Andy has a strong desire for knowledge.

His magical talent surpasses everyone else.

He is extremely passionate about magic.

In this case, when the professors at Hogwarts can no longer teach Andy magic, he has to find a professor with more knowledge.

Dumbledore had to admit that whenever Andy asked him for advice on magic, he always left some wiggle room.

Because in Dumbledore's view, uncontrollable curiosity is extremely dangerous.

When a strong desire for knowledge meets super strong ability to act and achieve goals, the energy it unleashes is unimaginable.

Just do it when you think of it, and you will succeed.

Is there anything more terrifying than this?
