”How was Christmas, Albus?”

Perenal smiled and welcomed the friends outside the door into the hall, ”If you want, you can also come and spend Christmas with us.”

”No, Perenal, I think it would be nice to stay in school to spend the holidays with everyone.” Dumbledore looked around and asked without seeing his old friend, ”Where is Nico?”

”He, in the study, he is chatting with Albert through a double-sided mirror.” Perenal's face showed a kind smile, ”Nico is always happy to chat with Albert, that is indeed An erudite and clever child.”

”Well, Albert is really smart.” Dumbledore said noncommittal.

He walked through the hall and appeared in front of the study. Nicol was sitting at the desk, chatting with Albert in the double-sided mirror.

”Oh, Albus, you are here!”

Nicol heard the footsteps, and when he raised his head, he saw Dumbledore who had just entered the study and greeted him with a smile.

”What were you talking about just now?” Dumbledore asked, ”I rarely see you smiling like this.”

”Well, Albert told me something about Hogwarts school.” Nicol had just finished talking with Albert and said as Dumbledore left the study.

”What happened in school?” Dumbledore raised his eyebrows slightly. ”What is it, I'm really curious about what makes you so happy.”

”Albert said that Professor Quirrell in your school was probably controlled by someone using the Imperius Curse. Every time he has time, he will go to the corridor of the restricted area on the fourth floor to hang out. He seems to be looking for an opportunity to steal your place. The magic stone in the school.” Nicol sat down on the sofa and told Dumbledore about the topic he had just chatted with Albert.

”Oh, Professor Quirrell!”

Dumbledore raised his eyebrows slightly. Of course he knew that Professor Quirrell was suspicious, but he really never thought that Professor Quirrell would be easily seen through by the students.

”You told him about the Philosopher's Stone?” Dumbledore asked.

”No.” Nicole shook his head. ”I asked him how he knew about the Philosopher's Stone. He said that Harry Potter broke into the corridor of the restricted area by mistake, and then he didn't know how to ask him about me.” Nicol didn’t mean to conceal, and he told Dumbledore about what he knew, “Associated with what you put in school, it’s not difficult to guess the truth. He even felt that magic The stone is fake.”

”Mr. Anderson is indeed very clever.” Dumbledore said with a light sigh, ”I didn't expect this result to be inferred based on this little information.”

”It's really amazing, it's just your Professor Quirrell...” Nicol picked up Perenal's freshly brewed black tea, sipped his mouth, smiled and shook his head.

”I heard that Professor Quirrell is so annoyed by Albert's questions that he doesn't want to see him anymore.” Perenal thought it was very interesting.

”It seems that you are ready to choose him as your successor?” Dumbledore added two sugar cubes to the black tea and said after stirring.

Nico really cares about Albert, otherwise why would he tell him these things?

”It is always good to be able to find someone to inherit my knowledge. If this part of knowledge is lost for no reason, then it is really regrettable.” Nicol said with emotion.
