Aiden, hiding to the side, didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
Standing before him, aside from Gilderoy Lockhart and Cedric Diggory, every other professor was a master who had reached the pinnacle of their respective fields.
With the arrival of Albus Dumbledore, Aiden couldn't help but worry that Invisibility Cloak might not completely fool the old man.
"Severus, you should also be able to feel the residual magic around here."
Dumbledore quietly gazed at the sink in front of him.
After a long while, he shifted his gaze to the last toilet stall where Myrtle was.
Upon hearing Dumbledore's words, Severus Snape walked toward the stall without hesitation.
He held his wand firmly and strode to the door, pulling it open.
Myrtle, floating in mid-air with a look of horror, was revealed before everyone.
Seeing this, Snape's expression turned even colder.
Dumbledore stood behind him, calm and composed, his eyes unruffled as if he had long expected this.
"This is the second victim!"
"Minerva, I'll leave the rest to you. Minimize the impact of this incident."
"Alright, Albus."
Minerva McGonagall nodded. Her expression remained grim, but it softened slightly after hearing Dumbledore's instructions.
Aiden silently observed everything.
Suddenly, a mechanical voice echoed in his mind.
"Detected the remnant soul of the Dark Lord, Lord Voldemort, and Albus Dumbledore, who has a teacher-student relationship with him. Therefore, the second question and answer space session is now open. The host does not need to participate in this question and answer space session."
After reading this, Aiden froze.
From this message, it was clear that Tom Riddle's diary was nearby, which meant that Ginny Weasley, who was being controlled, was also close.
But where were they hiding?
Before Aiden could figure it out, Dumbledore suddenly disappeared.
The moment that strange sensation appeared, Dumbledore felt a sense of familiarity.
Before he could fully react, the scene before him changed.
A vast expanse of white mist surrounded everything. There was nothing else in sight.
Even the sky above was filled with the same endless white fog.
Dumbledore looked around, a faint trace of surprise flickering in his calm eyes.
When he looked forward again, he saw a narrow black path stretching from the distance all the way to his feet.
The meaning was obvious.
Since he had been brought here, there was no reason not to meet the one behind it.
Moreover, this place felt familiar.
It reminded him of the previous question and answer space.
"Please follow the indicators on the ground and walk forward."
A line of text suddenly appeared before him.
Dumbledore remained composed. This was within his expectations.
The appearance of the text confirmed his guess.
This was the question and answer space, but different from before.
There was no glowing humanoid figure, and no professors or students standing nearby.
Dumbledore began walking forward.
After about a minute, the white mist ahead slowly began to fade.
When it completely cleared, a chair stood before him, and sitting opposite it was a handsome young man with a faint smile.
"Long time no see, Professor!"
"Long time no see, Tom!"
"I didn't expect you to still be alive, no, I actually knew, I just didn't expect you to still look this young."
Halfway through, Dumbledore shook his head and corrected himself.
"Isn't this normal, Professor? I transcended death."
"And you are walking toward death."
"Sooner or later, you will die."
Tom stood up as he spoke.
At this moment, he appeared exactly as he had at seventeen, both in personality and appearance.
Seeing Tom Riddle no longer hiding anything, a rare trace of sadness flickered in Dumbledore's eyes before vanishing.
"Death is but the next great adventure."
Tom merely sneered in response.
Their beliefs were completely different. There was no need to argue.
"In any case, you were once my professor, and I don't want to argue with you."
He sat back down, every movement elegant and composed.
"But given the current situation, you can't kill me either."
"I never intended to kill you, Tom."
As they spoke, the surrounding mist continued to dissipate, and the environment shifted.
Neither of them paid any attention to it.
At the same time, a large table appeared between them, with pens and paper neatly arranged on top.
A line of text appeared before them.
"This question and answer space will adopt a new method. Each person will only have one chance. After receiving the question, write your choice on the paper."
Dumbledore fell into thought, while Tom's eyes lit up.
Both of them understood this space to some extent.
Dumbledore had personally experienced it before, while Tom had learned about it through the memories of a certain young wizard.
Now, facing his former teacher and current enemy, Tom was filled with excitement.
Deep down, he had always wanted to defeat Dumbledore face to face.
At the same time, he feared him.
That fear made him avoid direct confrontation whenever possible.
But this unexpected meeting ignited something within him.
Fear, excitement, and anticipation mixed together as Tom stared at Dumbledore.
"Please listen to the question: After Dumbledore saw Tom Riddle's talent, why did he always treat him strictly and constantly restrict him?"
"A. Dumbledore saw Tom Riddle's talent and was jealous of him, so he treated him coldly."
"B. Because of the Grindelwald War and Tom Riddle's behavior as a child, Dumbledore feared the rise of another wizard like Gellert Grindelwald."
"C. Because Dumbledore wanted to cultivate a Dark Lord himself and then defeat him to gain fame and prestige."
"D. Does disliking someone need a reason?"
