Hogwarts: This Dark Lord is so evil.

Chapter 206 I brainwashed you in front of you, and you still have to thank me!
"Armando, I think he might be really crazy..."

In the headmaster's office, Dumbledore said with a frown.

He had already told Principal Dippet what had happened today.

"Um... where does he plan to keep those creatures?" asked Principal Dippet.

"He said that there are still many places in the Forbidden Forest... No, Armando, are you really considering agreeing?" Dumbledore couldn't help asking.

I thought Principal Dippet would work with him to find a way to stop Grindelwald, but unexpectedly, Principal Dippet didn't even think about it!

"His suggestion is not a bad idea," Principal Dippet said leisurely.

Dumbledore said nothing, but just stared at Headmaster Dippet.

"What's wrong? Do you think I'm getting old and confused and want to take my position sooner? That's great! I've wanted to retire for a long time!" Principal Dippet said happily.

"Come on, you're still a few years away from 200 years old. It's a good age to strive for success..." Dumbledore waved his hand and said unhappily.

Headmaster Dippet looked at Dumbledore in shock. "Ah... you are really cold-blooded... Okay, no more jokes. Objectively speaking, Grindelwald's move is not without merit."

"That would be too dangerous..." said Dumbledore.

"Albus... we still have to be objective. Even though he has a long history of bad deeds, we cannot completely deny all his decisions just because of what he has done in the past." Principal Dippet frowned and said, "Besides... even if I speculate with the greatest malice, I can't see how he can do anything with this matter. To be precise, the other party has already made a move, but it has not been completed yet. We might as well wait and see... At least, we don't need to use our last resort. Isn't this good news?"

"Well... it seems that this is the only way..."

"How about... you just give in and go to the Ministry of Magic to take over Welfare's position, and then..."

"Amando..."

"Well, it seems that you are more concerned about my position."

"Armando, you are at the age of struggle..."

"Ha, stop trying to tease the old man! Have you talked to Wade?"

Dumbledore looked at Headmaster Dippet in surprise, "Didn't you talk to him?"

"What? I thought you went to talk to him! How can you count on an old man like me? It's more appropriate for you to go than for me! You know, that kid has always respected you very much!"

"I...well, it's because he respects me that I don't know how to say it..." Dumbledore said bitterly.

……

From that day on, Grindelwald appeared in other professors' classes in addition to Dumbledore's.

He sometimes appears in lower grade classes and sometimes in higher grade classes.

It will even appear in the career counseling courses for fresh graduates, introducing the Ministry of Magic's job search situation to students who will graduate next June...

After each class, I would take notes very carefully and then ask the professor some questions or make some suggestions.

Moreover, he would often appear in the corridors, auditoriums, and even the Quidditch field to chat with students and understand their situation.

He really looks like a director of the Education Department who is dedicated to education work, rather than an ambitious person with evil intentions.

As time went by, the students' initial vigilance towards Grindelwald gradually decreased, and many of them even developed some good feelings towards this amiable Director of the Education Department.

……

It was soon mid-October and the weather had turned a little cold.

That day, Li Weide came to the club activity room and took a look around.

After hearing some students' positive comments about Grindelwald, he turned around and walked towards the door of the club activity room.

Tom asked in confusion, "Where are you going?"

"The time has come, Tom..." Livid said happily.

"When is it?" Tom frowned and asked, "Is it related to what they just said?"

"Of course... when they say that..." A vague smile appeared on Levitra's face. "Tom, I have to go find Professor Dumbledore. Do you want to come?"

"I...I haven't mastered the art of occlumency yet..."

"It's not a big problem. You don't know what I'm thinking anyway, and... Dumbledore won't read your mind unscrupulously." Levid waved his hand.

Tom looked at Li Weide in astonishment. Is this... the first time that this guy hasn't disliked him?

"Follow me later. Make the same expression as mine... Well, you are pretty good at imitating me, aren't you?"

"Okay..." Tom's curiosity was also aroused by Li Weide.

……

Dumbledore stood in front of the warm fireplace and sighed deeply.

He knew that he couldn't delay any longer...

Dumbledore naturally noticed the changes in the students over the past few days.

However, Grindelwald did not do anything out of line, and even Headmaster Dippet didn't know how to stop him.

Dumbledore was very sure that after a period of time, when the students' vigilance and fear of Grindelwald completely disappeared, he might have to start instilling his own ideas into the students!
So… even if Grindelwald hasn’t revealed his other intentions yet, there’s no way to delay it any longer! He must have a good talk with Levitra today!

Dumbledore turned and walked towards the door. Just as he opened the door, he was surprised to find that Levi and Tom were standing at the door, with anxious looks on their faces!
"Wade, Tom...what's wrong with you? What happened?" For a moment, Dumbledore thought that Grindelwald finally couldn't hold back and was about to attack the students.

However, he quickly suppressed this ridiculous idea.

Although it's not right, if Grindelwald really did this, it would be easier for him...

"Professor, why don't you react at all?" Li Weide said anxiously.

Tom had no idea what Livid wanted to say, but that didn't stop him from nodding eagerly.

"What?" Dumbledore was a little confused.

"I went to a club today, and you know what I heard?" Li Weide asked.

"Don't be in a hurry, Wade, Tom, let's go in first, sit down and talk slowly." Dumbledore let Wade into the office and closed the door.

"Please sit down. Don't be in a hurry and talk slowly." Dumbledore calmly pulled over a chair, asked Levi and Tom to sit down, and then made them each a drink.

"I heard everyone is praising Grindelwald!" Levitra took a sip of the drink handed to him by Dumbledore and continued, "This would have been impossible a month ago! That man... has been doing so much recently just to deceive everyone's trust. It won't be long before he will instill his ideas into everyone! Why hasn't the school reacted at all?"

Tom lowered his head and drank his drink, not daring to let Dumbledore see his eyes, but when he heard what Levitra said, he couldn't help but be surprised.

In Tom's opinion, wasn't Grindelwald's actions condoned by Levid? Why did he come to Dumbledore now?
For a moment, Tom was a little confused...

Upon hearing this, Dumbledore looked at Levi with admiration, "Very sharp insight... Levi."

As he said this, Dumbledore couldn't help but sigh. He was originally planning to talk to Levitra about this matter, but he didn't expect that he would come to him directly.

"So, you all know what Grindelwald is doing?" Levid asked in surprise.

"We do know that he came to Hogwarts with ulterior motives, so we planned to observe him for a while, but... I'm ashamed to say that after a month of observation, we have only discovered this relatively obvious plot of his."

"Then...what does the school plan to do?" Li Weide asked.

"In fact, I was planning to talk to you about this issue today..." Dumbledore looked embarrassed.

"Is what you want me to do difficult?"

"It's not difficult, but... it may be a little dangerous." Dumbledore's face showed deep apology. "We shouldn't have placed such a heavy burden on you... a child. This should have been a problem for us to solve. But..."

"I see, you want to use my mutual aid society!" Levid pointed out Dumbledore's idea sharply.

"You are very smart, Wade..." Dumbledore was becoming more and more conflicted. Wade was arguably the smartest student he had ever met.

However, what he has to do now is to push such a smart student into a dangerous vortex!

In case something goes wrong…

For a moment, Dumbledore actually felt a little regretful.

Otherwise... I'd better become the minister... I must not put this child in danger.

"Professor, what do you want me to do?" Li Weide asked with a firm look.

"No... I can't do this. I still..." Dumbledore shook his head in confusion.

Before talking to Levid, even though Dumbledore was struggling, he had already made up his mind.

However, when he came face to face with the child, Dumbledore immediately regretted it.

If Levitra really had an accident, the blow to Dumbledore would not be less than the death of Ariana...

Because if anything happens to Li Weide, it will be because of him!
"Professor! Grindelwald wants to indoctrinate us students with his ideas, so... you want me to help you resist his indoctrination, right?"

"How... did you guess that?" Dumbledore looked at Levitra in shock.

"At present, the only thing that can play a positive role in this matter is my mutual aid society... Everyone respects me. To be frank, even the supervisor, Professor Slughorn... does not have as much influence on the members as I do. So... it is the best way for me to lead everyone to resist his brainwashing!"

"Wade...you are the smartest child I have ever met, but...I just thought about it, I can't do this! It's too dangerous...we were too selfish before! Minerva is right, putting such a burden on a child is a shame for all of us!" Dumbledore completely regretted it after fully realizing Wade's intelligence.

Rather than facing the pain of losing Ariana again in the future, Dumbledore would rather be the Minister of Magic!

"Professor, this is the best way..." Li Weide said slowly.

"We don't need to do this! I said, we were wrong!" Dumbledore said anxiously.

"Professor... Now, I already know this method, so whether you agree or not, I will do it. If Grindelwald wants to brainwash the members of my club... he has to ask me first! As long as I instill the correct ideas into the members first! Grindelwald will not be able to brainwash them!" Levid's eyes were determined and he wanted to join the party!
Dumbledore looked at Levid with emotion, what a good boy... Even though he knew that doing so would directly anger Grindelwald and put his life in danger, he still did not hesitate!

While Dumbledore was moved, Tom had already completely understood Levi's intention!

Instill ideas!

Levid's purpose is not to stop Grindelwald from brainwashing!

He was looking for a suitable reason to openly instill his ideas into the members!

Li Weide’s own thoughts!

Even when he was instilling ideas and building his own loyal team, Dumbledore would not only not object, but would also support him!
And Grindelwald... thought that Levi was one of his own, so naturally he would also think that Levi's behavior of indoctrinating people was contributing to his cause!
In this way, both Dumbledore and Grindelwald once again became pawns for him to profit from!

Horrible...so terrible!

You still say you are a good person? You are not afraid of having a guilty conscience!
