Chapter 175 Dumbledore's Charm



Hearing Wentworth's question, even Dumbledore was stunned and blurted out, "Did something happen, Wentworth?"

So, Wentworth told Dumbledore without hiding anything, that a letter had appeared in his vault, and even repeated the contents of the letter to Dumbledore.

However, Dumbledore's reaction was somewhat beyond Wentworth's expectations. Dumbledore suddenly stood up, then seemed to have thought of something, and slowly walked back to his chair, followed by a long silence.

After an unknown amount of time, so much so that Wentworth couldn't help but yawn, Dumbledore suddenly seemed to have disturbed him. Dumbledore came to his senses and said to Wentworth expressionlessly:

"Wentworth, go back and rest tonight. Tomorrow, we will go to Gringotts again. I will accompany you!"

Wentworth, who was confused by Dumbledore, returned to his dormitory with a puzzled look on his face. Dumbledore's performance tonight was really beyond Wentworth's expectations.

I always feel that Dumbledore seems to have discovered something important through my words, but I know nothing about it. This feeling is not good.

The next morning, Wentworth and Cedric had just walked out of the Hufflepuff common room when they ran into Dumbledore who was walking slowly towards them.

Dumbledore seemed to have returned to normal at this time. He smiled at Wentworth and said, "Wentworth, shall we set off?"

Wentworth was stunned and said in surprise: "So early, Principal Dumbledore? I haven't had breakfast yet!"

Dumbledore smiled playfully and replied:

"What a coincidence! I haven't eaten either! Although the breakfast at Hogwarts is quite rich, anyone will get tired of it after eating it for decades. How about we go to Diagon Alley for breakfast today?"

Wentworth was naturally happy about Dumbledore's invitation, so he left Cedric, who had a sad face, without hesitation and went to the Broken Axe with Dumbledore.

"I like the mead here the best. Mead from other places can't taste like this!"

Dumbledore said this with a wine glass in his hand and an intoxicated look on his face.

Wentworth was busy fighting with the toast in his hand, looking at Dumbledore with some resentment. Although he didn't know how the drinks in the Slash Axe were, the food in the Slash Axe was far worse than that in Hogwarts! As it was still early, there were not many customers in the Slash Axe. Feeling cheated, Wentworth hurriedly ate a few bites of toast, and then, on the pretext that he was full, he began to urge Dumbledore. Then, the two passed through the Slash Axe and entered Diagon Alley.

As soon as they entered Diagon Alley, which was relatively quiet because it was still early, it suddenly became lively with the appearance of Dumbledore.

Countless wizards swarmed in, and even many clerks and owners of magic shops along the way abandoned their own shops just to talk to Dumbledore up close, without worrying at all whether anyone would enter their shops and take things.

Now, Wentworth finally understood why Dumbledore had brought him to Diagon Alley so early. If it was a little later, there would obviously be more wizards in Diagon Alley, and by then, they would be unable to move! After finally passing through the surging crowd, Dumbledore brought Wentworth to the door of Gringotts. They were surprised to find that outside the door of Gringotts, there was actually a circle of Aurors from the British Ministry of Magic, led by the head of the Auror Office of the British Ministry of Magic, Rufus Scrimgeour.

Seeing Dumbledore coming, Rufus Scrimgeour was obviously stunned, but he quickly reacted, brought two Aurors to Dumbledore's side, and said, "Principal Dumbledore, you are here too!"

Seeing this, Dumbledore asked curiously:

Hearing Dumbledore's question, Rufus Scrimgeour said in surprise:

"Don't you know? It's like this. We received news that a vault in Gringotts was robbed, so we wanted to go in to investigate, but the goblins in Gringotts refused our request and insisted that nothing was missing from Gringotts!"

Hearing Rufus Scrimgeour's answer, Dumbledore and Wentworth looked at each other. Seeing the questioning look in Dumbledore's eyes, Wentworth thought helplessly in his heart: "Don't look at the headmaster. It's not my vault that was stolen, it's yours!"

But Wentworth couldn't say this to Dumbledore.

At this time, Rufus Scrimgeour also turned his gaze to Wentworth beside Dumbledore, but before Rufus Scrimgeour could open his mouth to ask, two goblins hurriedly ran out of Gringotts.

The two goblins, under the gaze of the surrounding Aurors, walked straight to Dumbledore and said respectfully: "Gringotts welcomes the greatest white wizard in history, Dumbledore. Please follow me!"

As the goblin spoke, he led the way, taking Dumbledore and Wentworth into Gringotts.

Seeing this, the Aurors who were stopped outside Gringotts by the goblins were filled with indignation. One of the Aurors grabbed a goblin and asked angrily under the goblin's vigilant eyes: "Why can they go in but we can't?!"

The goblin looked into the Auror's eyes and said slowly:

"Because he is Dumbledore! Albus Dumbledore!"

The goblin's words left the Auror unable to refute for a moment, but then the Auror pointed at Wentworth beside the goblin and said, "Then why was he allowed to follow in?"

At this time, the goblin waved his hand, broke free from the Auror's arm, and said impatiently: "Because he is followed by Dumbledore! Albus Dumbledore!"

Auror: ...

Led by the goblins, Wentworth and Dumbledore ignored the noise behind them and walked straight into Gringotts. At this time, the number of goblins in Gringotts had obviously increased a lot more than usual, and many of them looked to be in a hurry.

Led by the goblins, Wentworth and Dumbledore were led into a magnificent room. Inside the room, even the walls were covered with gold powder, and the chairs where Wentworth and Dumbledore sat were inlaid with gems.

At this moment, the door of the room on the other side was opened, and a goblin with a cane, supported by another goblin, slowly walked into the room, came to Dumbledore's side, and bowed to him very respectfully.

Just as Dumbledore and Wentworth stood up quickly, and Dumbledore wanted to help him up with a confused look on his face, he heard the goblin say:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Dumbledore. Your vault 713 was stolen. It was our fault at Gringotts!"

Dumbledore: ??? (End of this chapter)
