Just as Kyle thought, Amelia Bones was indeed not confident in having others help keep the Horcruxes.

And they acted very quickly. The letter arrived at Hogwarts before the holiday was even over.

Still in the headmaster's office, Kyle finished reading the letter in his hand and returned it to Professor McGonagall.

"What do you think?"

“That’s very polite,” Kyle said.

The letter was sent to Professor McGonagall, and its content was like a conversation between two old friends. Although Horcruxes were mentioned, it was only a few short sentences, and that was at the end of the letter. In a very casual tone, Professor McGonagall was asked if she needed the Ministry of Magic's help in keeping those things.

Of course, both Professor McGonagall and Kyle understood that this was the focus of the letter, and other small talk and greetings could be omitted.

"Well, you know what they are thinking for a few days. I will deny her request on behalf of Hogwarts." Professor McGonagall said.

It will definitely be rejected.

He already knew that the locket, the tiara, and the golden cup were in Kyle's hands, and that they were all intact, so there was no way Kyle would hand them over to the Ministry of Magic.

The Resurrection Stone Ring disappeared with Dumbledore's death.

And the Runespoor Snake also completely disappeared after the war, and it must have turned into ashes.

The only diary that could be given away had already been taken out at the last hearing. They had nothing to offer now, so of course they had to refuse.

Professor McGonagall brought a piece of parchment and was about to write a reply.

"Why should we refuse? As a righteous wizard, we must cooperate with the Ministry of Magic and hand over the Horcrux to them."

Professor McGonagall paused and almost poked a hole in the parchment.

"No!" she blurted out.

"Ah?" Kyle was a little surprised. He didn't expect Professor McGonagall to object.

"What I mean is that the golden cup, the diadem, and the locket are all things left behind by the Big Four. Even if they were once Horcruxes, they should be kept in Hogwarts, especially the Ravenclaw diadem."

Professor McGonagall looked at Kyle and said seriously, "It would be terrible if this thing fell into the hands of someone with bad intentions, and the Ministry of Magic...to be honest, they have let people down many times."

Professor McGonagall's point was simple: she didn't trust the Ministry of Magic.

There's nothing strange about this, just look at what they have done.

The first is that Fudge insisted on not believing the news that Voldemort had made a comeback. In order to maintain his position, he was willing to break up with Dumbledore to cover up the truth.

And how could Umbridge, such a cruel, vain, arrogant and unprofessional person, become the Deputy Minister?

This was something that Professor McGonagall could not even imagine, let alone what would happen if such a person came into contact with the Ravenclaw diadem.

Although things got much better after Amelia Bones came to power and cleared out many unqualified people, a rebellion that shocked the whole of Britain also occurred.

Therefore, the Ministry of Magic is really not trustworthy. If the tiara is handed over to them, there might be a theft in the Ministry of Magic the next day.

Maybe you don’t have to wait until the next day at all.

Professor McGonagall patiently persuaded Kyle, "Besides, we can't find the resurrection stone ring. But they will definitely not believe it if we say so. It will only cause greater conflicts. It is better to reject this request from the beginning."

"Who said we don't have it? We do have it." Kyle took out a diamond-shaped stone and placed it on the table.

Professor McGonagall's eyes widened.

"Resurrection Stone?"

"You could say that." Kyle nodded, "I have everything you need."

He threw a second stone, and then a third stone, onto the table.

Professor McGonagall reacted immediately.

“Is this fake?”

"Who said it's fake? It's real!" Kyle put away the extra stones, "This is real."

"But the Resurrection Stone is not an ordinary stone." Professor McGonagall shook her head, feeling that Kyle's approach had too many loopholes.

"Oh, I almost forgot." He took out a five-inch long tooth and stuck it hard into the stone.

The diamond-shaped stone broke right in half, and bursts of white smoke rose up.

"That's all right now."

Professor McGonagall opened her mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.

However, Phineas on the wall made a series of meaningless smacking sounds.

But Kyle ignored him and continued to take things out.

Gold Cup,

crown,

Locket, Sword of Gryffindor...Oh, this is not it, Kyle made this for fun.

He threw the sword aside.

At this time, Professor McGonagall picked up the nearest crown and placed it in front of her eyes, looking at it carefully.

Needless to say, these were definitely fake, but they looked very real. She looked at them for a long time and couldn't find any flaws.

"How's it going?" Kyle asked.

Professor McGonagall nodded. "Very similar. Really."

Let’s put it this way, except for the lack of special abilities of the real things, these things are almost exactly the same in other aspects, and even she can’t find any problems with them.

"Of course I made it based on the real thing. Every detail is perfect."

Then came the most crucial step. Kyle picked up the locket in front of him.

Because this is the headmaster's office of Hogwarts, Kyle couldn't be too arrogant and use Fiendfyre directly in front of Professor McGonagall and all the headmasters.

So he simply took out the Gubler Fire that he got from Sirius.

This thing is also a magical flame, and the traces it leaves behind are similar to those of the Fiendish Fire. Combined with the things Kyle specially prepared, it looks even more like it.

Under the burning flames, the pendant box soon underwent obvious changes, and even cracks emitting a faint black glow appeared on the surface.

Even from those cracks, there were faint screams that seemed to come from far away.

Professor McGonagall just watched with a puzzled expression.

She had never seen what it looked like to destroy a real Horcrux, but she felt that it should be like this, the Horcrux was damaged and the soul fragments let out unwilling roars.

But isn't this fake? Why can she hear the roar, and what's with the cracks on it...

As if he had guessed what Professor McGonagall was thinking, Kyle took out a bottle and placed it on the table.

“I stumbled across this while I was making these.”

Professor McGonagall looked over.

There was a grey powder in the bottle, and the temperature was very low. Even through the bottle, a layer of white frost quickly formed on the table.

"What is this?" Professor McGonagall asked puzzledly.

She considered herself to be a well-informed wizard, but she had no idea what this was, including this characteristic.

"This is what's left after killing the Dementors."

"Kill what?"

Professor McGonagall was relieved at once. No wonder she didn't know. Probably not many people knew about it.

"What's the use of this thing?"

"I don't know yet." Kyle said, "But I also found that it is very suitable for making dark magic items, so I changed my thinking and made three dark magic items."

"Then the cry I just heard was..."

"The Howling Curse," Kyle said. "If anyone opens this locket, they will hear a sound similar to the scream of a mandrake. It is also a magic that targets the soul."

Professor McGonagall looked at Kyle, then at the crown in her hand, and subconsciously threw it back on the table.

"That's a crown that makes people lose their minds. Just don't put it on your head."

Kyle put down the deformed and twisted pendant box, picked up the crown and placed it above the fairy fire.

Soon, the dazzling crown was covered with a thick layer of rust, and the huge sapphire became dull.

Kyle had it custom-made, and it looks exactly as it did when it was found.

What stands out is rigor.

Professor McGonagall watched from the side until Kyle destroyed the three items himself.

"Leave these to the Ministry of Magic." Kyle pushed everything to Professor McGonagall.

"But...what if they find out it's fake?" Professor McGonagall was still a little worried.

"I am quite confident in my alchemy skills."

Kyle smiled and said, "If this was the Beauxbatons School of Magic in France, I would definitely think of another way.

“Because alchemy is popular in France, and there are alchemy masters like Professor Victor, he will definitely be able to tell that what I made is a fake.

“But this is Britain and most people can’t even make a simple waterproof and moisture-proof badge.”

"That's too much!" Phineas couldn't help but interrupt the two.

"Why," Kyle turned to look, "was I wrong?"

"It's just because you're right." Phineas muttered and simply continued to close his eyes and pretend to sleep.

Professor McGonagall didn't hesitate for long before putting away the things in front of her.

At least this is one solution. No matter what, the things left behind by the Big Four cannot be handed over to the Ministry of Magic for safekeeping.

"The only thing left is the Runespoor. What are you going to do?" Professor McGonagall put the things on the shelf at the back, "I suggest doing nothing. What do you think?

"After all, when you killed the Runespoor, many people were at the scene. Although they did not see it with their own eyes, they also learned the truth from Voldemort. Both Bones and the Aurors should be very clear about this."

“That’s what I thought,” Kyle said.

Among these Horcruxes, the Runespoor was the least important one. Kyle didn't even take a second look at it and just left.

If the Ministry of Magic really wanted to, perhaps there would be some traces in Sirius's Screaming Ice Cream Shop.

"Well, leave the rest to me." After making the decision, Professor McGonagall picked up the quill, quickly wrote a reply letter, and came to the window.

An owl flew over, grabbed the envelope and flew away.

…

I have to say that the Ministry of Magic really takes the matter of Horcruxes very seriously.

Only half a day after the letter was sent, Minister Amelia Bones appeared at Hogwarts with the new Head of the Auror Office, Kingsley.

They just happened to walk in from outside when the Hogwarts students were having dinner, and kept walking all the way to the front teacher's seat.

"Amelia..." Professor McGonagall stood up in surprise.

She was really surprised.

Judging from the time, the Ministry of Magic should have come here immediately after receiving the reply letter sent by owl.

Isn’t this efficiency a bit too high? Isn’t the Ministry of Magic very busy recently?

However, Professor McGonagall did not show it, and enthusiastically introduced Amelia Bones and Kingsley to the students who were eating.

"Don't be like that, Minerva." Bones pushed up her glasses on her nose. "I just wanted to come to the Three Broomsticks to relax and I received your reply letter."

"Really? What a coincidence." Professor McGonagall said with a smile, her voice a little stiff.

It can be seen that she is still a little uncomfortable with this way of speaking.

Dumbledore was very experienced in this regard. He was always sincere every time he met Fudge, and those who didn't know would think they were old friends for many years.

Bones came to the Three Broomsticks, and what about Kingsley Shacklebolt? Did he just come along for a drink? This reason is a bit far-fetched.

Moreover, from the moment he entered the hall until now, Kingsley had not dared to look Professor McGonagall in the eye. He could sense his embarrassment from a distance.

But Kyle didn't think there was anything wrong with this.

Although he was once a member of the Order of the Phoenix, it had been disbanded by Dumbledore.

It was also normal for the Aurors to want to keep Voldemort's Horcruxes. If Kyle was the head of the Auror Office, he would definitely come.

Unfortunately, he was not the head of the Auror Office, so it was impossible for him to hand the things over to the Ministry of Magic for safekeeping.

“Miller…”

"Amelia, how about having dinner together?" Professor McGonagall warmly invited the two to the teachers' seats, interrupting what Bones wanted to say.

"Of course, no problem." Bones nodded. "Come to think of it, I really miss the dinner at Hogwarts. I remember the last time I had school toast was thirty years ago."

"It was thirty-five years ago. I had just arrived at Hogwarts not long ago, so I remember it clearly."

"Yeah, you're right."

When the two sat down, Professor McGonagall turned her head intentionally or unintentionally and gave Kyle a look.

Kyle suddenly realized something, quickly finished the toast on his plate, stood up slowly, and left the auditorium naturally with several students.

Once he reached the lobby, he quickened his pace and headed for the principal's office on the eighth floor.

Kyle's first glance was at the shelf behind the desk.

Just as he guessed, the things he had given Professor McGonagall were still there.

Such an important Horcrux was left out there like trash... If Bones saw this, she would definitely be suspicious.

I guess Professor McGonagall didn't expect her to come so soon, so she didn't put it away in time.

Fortunately, she reacted.

Kyle looked around the headmaster's office and his eyes stopped on the tattered Sorting Hat.

It suddenly occurred to him that since the Sorting Hat could hide a Sword of Gryffindor, it probably wouldn't mind holding a few more things.

Anyway, they are all left behind by the Big Four.

As for whether it's true or not...it doesn't matter.

As long as it can reflect the importance of Horcruxes, it will be fine.
