The phoenix on Dumbledore's shoulder responded and cried.

"Go and stare at Harry, don't show up." He said, Fox spread his wings and flew into the air, and his figure suddenly disappeared.

"What a strange creature," Felix said in admiration, "it's hard to resist getting close to you."

Dumbledore glanced at him, "Hagir was very happy recently. He told me that an old friend came here to stay temporarily. Do you know why, Felix?"

Felix said to him, "I don't know either, the principal... I haven't contacted much recently."

Soon, the deans and professors of the four colleges arrived, and Professor McGonagall briefly explained the situation.

Snape was surprised, "Blake! Still so stupid...How did he break through the Dementor's defense?"

Felix said quietly: "Severus, he can escape from Azkaban, and he still cares about a few dementors? If I ask me, this thing is disgusting and useless."

At present, the dementors did not appear in the school grounds. The only way for students to see the dementors is to cross the Hagrid House and walk through a long ramp to see two people guarding the main entrance of the school.

But if Hogwarts is reduced to a certain proportion, you will find that a large number of dementors gathered on the edge of Hogwarts, including Hogsmeade village adjacent to the school.

This is also the reason why Felix believes that Luna's behavior is not safe. No one can guarantee whether a dementor will suddenly jump out. Although the Ministry of Magic will definitely draw out the patrol range, the young and emotional student is like a big meal for the dementor.

This is why Dumbledore strongly opposed their entry into the school. In his opinion, the Ministry of Magic could not control the dementors at all. But he had to make some compromises to allow them to appear outside the school.

Snape calmed down and said to Dumbledore hintedly: "Principal Dumbledore, the newspaper said the day before yesterday that he had found Black's trace in Diagon Alley, and today he appeared outside the castle. It seemed that in my opinion, no one could help him to do this."

The professor present looked at Snape in surprise, and Flivie screamed even more sharply: "Are you saying that Black has summoned some of the Death Eaters?"

Snape was stunned for a moment, he didn't mean that...

The professors were talking, and they accepted Snape's idea almost instantly, or rather, this was a reasonable guess.

The newspapers have already boasted Black as "the first Death Eater under the mysterious man". It would be strange if you can't find a helper with this label.

"With his prestige..."

"Maybe that's it. We thought Black was just alone, but maybe he had gathered a lot of black wizards."

Lupin, who was originally silent, suddenly said, "I don't think so, Little Sky Wolf." He froze for a second or two, "Blake is just an undercover agent. I think even in the circle of Death Eaters, few people know his identity."

"Lupin, can I understand that you are defending your best friend?" Snape pointed his finger at Lupin, and he deliberately aggravated the word "favorite".

"No, Snape." Lupin said calmly, "just a simple analysis." He looked at Dumbledore, "Maybe when he returns to the Death Eater as an undercover agent, he will be warmly welcomed and sought after, but the problem is that he failed and his intelligence directly led to the disappearance of the mysterious man. Will the Death Eater believe him?"

"Principal, based on my knowledge of him, Black is definitely alone, maybe... it may be to prove himself, just like when he was in school, or every battle in the war era, he was rushing to the forefront." Lupin concluded depressedly: "He likes to take risks and be a lone hero."

Snape's eyes became cold, but he didn't say anything anymore, shrank himself into the darkness in the corner without saying a word.

A professor expressed his opinion: "But without the help of the Death Eater, how did he cross hundreds of kilometers in two days? There were a lot of people trying to catch up with him. The Ministry of Magic invested a lot this time, and the bounty was not low."

"There are too many possibilities, Flying powder, door key, Flying broom..."

"But they will leave traces, and Black will never dare to expose it!"

"Will it be a phantom shift? Some wizards don't need a wand to use it."

Flivie is the authority of the spell, and he rejected this speculation: "Theoretically, the phantom shift does not require a wand, but in reality, few people can do it. It is much more difficult than you think and is very prone to accidents. Moreover, the phantom shift also has many restrictions, unless... unless he gets a wand!"

"How is that possible?"

"Go steal and rob, as long as you see the opportunity, there is nothing impossible."

Dumbledore interrupted the discussion, "Everyone, let's search the castle first to ensure that everything is foolproof."

Finally, all the teachers spent half a night until dawn and found no problems.

The professors dispersed one after another, and Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall, Snape and Felix got together again. Professor McGonagall was to report the latest progress, and Snape obviously had something to say. Felix had a small question that Dumbledore needed to answer.

Professor McGonagall said: "I have already confirmed the Fat Lady with her portrait of Black, and she will never admit her mistake."

"Very good, Minerva," Dumbledore said. "It's better to let all the portraits in the castle remember what Black looks like, I mean... those portraits that can be communicated."

Professor McGonagall nodded, Snape snorted, and Dumbledore turned to look at him: "Severus, do you seem to have something to say?"

Snape's words were not at all emotional: "Dumbledore, I think we were doing useless work. We discussed it before school started." He raised his head and his eyes were cast from the hooked nose. "As long as there are hidden dangers in the castle, Black will always find an opportunity."

Professor McGonagall said sternly: "You mean someone in Hogwarts informed me? This is impossible! Impossible, Severus."

Dumbledore said firmly: "What happened today just proves that there is no helper from Black in the school."

"That's not necessarily, Principal," Snape said in a low voice, "Maybe the insider just didn't know there was a special glass for Black, in fact," he showed a sarcastic expression, "I'm also kept in the dark, right?"

Felix knew who he was talking about, Remus Lupin, Sirius Black's close friend when he was in school. A few hours ago, Snape intended to guide everyone to suspicion about him, but was led by Flivie...

It seems that Dumbledore warned him not to reveal Lupin's werewolf identity, otherwise the professor and the students and parents would definitely be furious. In the war years, werewolf used to be an important dark force of Voldemort.

...

When McGonagall and Snape left, Felix raised his own questions.

"You want to know how dementors breed?" Dumbledore repeated the question he heard.
