Hogwarts: A little lion in the skin of the Eagle School

Harry and Sirius were both taken aback by John's words.

How do we create opportunities?

John didn't keep them in suspense and continued.

"Let's take the Horcruxes directly to Voldemort, and destroy one in front of him."

"Then, because Voldemort had an information gap, he didn't know how much information we had about the other Horcruxes, so he would subconsciously start thinking about the whereabouts of those Horcruxes, and even go to look for them directly."

"The Horcrux is his life-saving tool, so he will definitely care about it and experience emotional fluctuations."

"Then you'll be able to connect to Voldemort's mind and see where his other Horcruxes are hidden."

Both of them lit up upon hearing this, even though it was just theory.

But it is indeed feasible.

Anyway, the Horcruxes will be destroyed sooner or later.

It's more valuable to destroy Horcruxes.

If it doesn't work the first time, try a few more times.

They're holding three undestroyed Horcruxes in their hands right now.

With a bit of luck, they might even find out how many Horcruxes Voldemort had prepared in total.

Of course, this is all on the premise that Voldemort has not yet discovered the connection between Harry and his mind.

Once discovered, Voldemort would activate his Occlumency technique, and the plan would immediately fall through.

"Okay, but I have one more question."

How are we going to find Voldemort?

Harry agreed to John's plan, but immediately raised another question.

"Uh...good question, I don't know either."

After a moment of silence, John scratched his head awkwardly and gave an embarrassed laugh.

Harry: "..."

Voldemort has now been exposed.

However, the location of his base remains a mystery.

"I wonder if the principal has any information. It would be great if we had an undercover agent there."

John shrugged helplessly and slumped back onto the sofa.

"Even if there really is an undercover agent, we can't just barge in..."

"Voldemort isn't stupid. He'll definitely sense something's wrong when he sees us traveling all this way just to destroy a Horcrux in front of him."

Sirius Black, who was standing nearby, added.

"Anyway, let Dumbledore take a look at this plan. After all, it's the old man who makes the decisions."

John immediately took out paper and pen and began writing a letter to Dumbledore.

Harry and Sirius didn't stop them, but continued chatting with John.

"By the way, Professor Dumbledore told me he's taking us on a trip next week. Did he mention this to you?"

Harry then asked.

"Oh, he did mention it to me before, but he didn't say he'd be with you."

John replied casually as he wrote his letter.

Did the principal tell you what to do?

"No, they just sent me a letter to let me know."

Harry shook his head.

"By the way, Sirius, the principal asked you and Professor Lupin to investigate the Horcruxes. Have you found anything yet?"

After John finished writing the letter in a few quick strokes, he asked Sirius a question.

"No, we've recently been tracing the Hufflepuff Cup, but the trail has gone cold."

"The only information found was that the gold cup was in the possession of a collector decades ago, but that collector died mysteriously and vanished without a trace along with the gold cup."

"Dumbledore suspected that the collector was killed by Voldemort, and that Voldemort also took the Golden Cup."

"It has never appeared on the market since."

After listening to Sirius's words, John nodded; that wasn't surprising.

How could Voldemort possibly allow Horcruxes to circulate in the market?

In short, set a goal first: find a way to let Voldemort know that the Horcruxes have been discovered, and see if you can get Voldemort to reveal the locations of the other Horcruxes himself.

We'll think of other solutions later.

For example, look for clues about the patterns in Voldemort's hiding of Horcruxes.

Wait... there doesn't seem to be any pattern at all...

One lost Hogwarts, one lost their hometown, one lost the Order of the Phoenix...

No, he was taken back to the Order of the Phoenix by Regulus.

"Senior Harry, the headmaster said you found that diary. How did you find it?"

"The diary... actually, strictly speaking, wasn't something we found..."

Faced with John's sudden question, Harry thought for a moment and slowly began to speak.

"That diary originally belonged to Lucius."

"When I was in second grade, I ran into Lucius when I went to Diagon Alley with Ron and his family to buy textbooks and teaching materials for the new semester."

"He took the opportunity of mocking Ginny's textbooks for being too old to slip the diary into Ginny's luggage."

"Later, in the diary, Voldemort's spirit possessed Ginny, causing a series of terrible incidents."

"Then, after a series of farces, I managed to destroy the diary and hand it over to Professor Dumbledore."

John nodded slightly after listening.

Then a question was raised.

"Why do you think Voldemort's Horcruxes are with Lucius?"

Sirius and Harry were taken aback by the question; they had never actually considered it.

Sirius Black began to think from the perspective of someone who had been through it all.

"Back when Voldemort was in power, the Malfoy family was highly valued by him and always held a core position in the Death Eater group."

"Perhaps it was out of trust in Lucius, or to avoid putting all his eggs in one basket, that Voldemort entrusted one of the Horcruxes to Lucius for safekeeping."

That's a reasonable explanation.

If that's true, does it prove that there were other trustworthy Death Eaters who also helped Voldemort keep a Horcrux safe?

So there's still one more question.

"Is Lucius Voldemort's favorite?" John pressed.

"Hmm... I wouldn't say he's favored, but he's at least one of Voldemort's most trusted purebloods. He has the family background, the ability, and the loyalty..."

Sirius himself couldn't help but laugh as he spoke, but he forced himself to remain serious and continued.

"But if we're talking about the person Voldemort trusted the most, it would undoubtedly be Bellatrix."

At this point, Sirius understood what John meant.

If we're talking about having subordinates keep Horcruxes, Bella would definitely be the first choice.

Where would Lucius even get a chance?

There are only two possibilities for this situation to occur.

One reason is that while Bella is trustworthy, she is simply not suitable to safeguard such a crucial Horcrux due to her erratic behavior, so she was not entrusted with it.

There's another one.

Bella has already taken possession of one of the Horcruxes.
