Harry Potter and the Secret Treasure

Still, Harry stuffed his Invisibility Cloak into his bag.

"Harry, don't do anything stupid," Hermione said worriedly.

"I'm just carrying it just in case," Harry muttered, following them out of the carriage.

The carriage was full of students. As soon as they came out, everyone was staring at Ivan and Harry with curiosity in their eyes.

Some students even ran out of the carriages in a hurry, just to have a good look at them.

It's been a while since news of Voldemort's return was confirmed.

But I have to admit that the series of events that happened during the summer vacation and the panic of their families made the students truly realize how serious the situation is. become more overwhelming.

Ivan had already experienced this feeling when he was patrolling in the morning, and there were still many people staring at Elaine.

It was the first time Harry stepped out of the carriage, and now he really wanted to put on the Invisibility Cloak and disappear from everyone.

Everyone was pointing and pointing, except for Cho Chang, who jumped into her car as soon as she saw Harry approaching.

Passing by the window of her box, she can be seen talking earnestly with her friend.

Since Gryffindor defeated Ravenclaw in the last Quidditch match of last term, Harry and Cho's relationship has ended, as has Ginny and Michael's, and a lot of Ravenclaw's Students also withdraw from DA activities.

When they reached carriage C, it was already full, and Slughorn had invited more than five of them.

It's really difficult for him, at such an age, he sorted out the situation of all the students in Hogwarts in such a short time, and confirmed the goal.

Anyway, judging by Slughorn's warm welcome, they were the ones he was most looking forward to seeing.

Especially Ivan, Harry and Elaine, seeing the three of them, Slughorn's eyes could even shine.

"Oh, my dear children, I am so glad to see you," he said, jumping down from his chair.

The big belly in the velvet clothes almost filled the remaining space in the carriage. His shining bald head and big silver-white beard were like the golden buttons on his vest, shining brightly in the sun. shine.

Chapter 1273 The Slug Club

In the box, a huge round table was transformed, and everyone sat around the table.

"It's great to meet you, it's great." Slughorn said enthusiastically, his eyes flicked across the faces of several people, "Then, you must be Mr. Longbottom? Ah, then this The lovely lady must be Elaine, a descendant of the Slytherin family. It is a great honor for you to come. You know, I am a graduate of Slytherin House. I used to be the dean of this college. I like this college. Also adored your ancestor Salazar Slytherin..."

Under his gaze, Neville nodded, seemingly frightened.

Elaine looked up at Slughorn before saying, "I'm currently in Gryffindor."

"That's Slytherin's loss, isn't it?" Slughorn said regretfully, not at all embarrassed by Elaine's answer.

He gestured for them to take the only five vacant seats.

Ivan carefully looked at the people invited by Slughorn, not many, less than ten people.

More than half of them are from Slytherin College, and they don't know why Slughorn was attracted to them. They all moved their chairs as far as possible to quietly stay away from Ivan and the five of them, and the only one who was approaching was Ginny. Crowded in a corner next to Slughorn, dazed, as if he didn't know why he was here.

"Ginny!" Hermione called, motioning for her to come and sit.

"Oh, you all know each other, don't you?" said Slughorn cheerfully. "This charming young lady told me just now that she knew some of you, so I invited her too. Well, I need to give you Introduce me? This is Blaise Zabini, Harry, he's in your year, and you must know him."

Zabini neither recognized nor greeted.

Ivan, Harry, and Neville didn't respond, while Hermione, Elaine, and Ginny whispered together, and didn't listen to Slughorn's introduction at all. Of course they knew that Zabini was Who, but no matter from which standpoint, they don't want to deal with each other.

This tall black boy was a student of Slytherin House and seemed to have a good relationship with Malfoy.

Although not part of his small team, he had been involved in fights with Gryffindors in previous years.

And, in a way, Zabini was well-known within the school.

His fame comes from his famous mother, who is a real-life version of Black Widow.

Mrs. Sabine is a very beautiful and famous witch who often appears in newspapers and magazines. Her dress leads the trend of the magic world, but what is more interesting to talk about is her private life. She has married seven husbands successively. Each husband died quickly and left a large estate.

Still, there are plenty of wealthy wizards willing to marry her.

Although she is no longer young, has so many marriages, has a child, and so many terrible rumors, she is still like a flame in the dark, attracting many moth-like wizards to pounce on her.

Seeing Shabini, thinking of all the rumors about his mother, it reminded Ivan.

The real Black Widow, the famous black witch Natalia, a high-ranking member of Raven's Claw, this guy's track has always been a secret, she seems to not know that her last husband was killed by Ivan, if Got it, there is no reason not to come to Ai Wen for revenge, or looking for an opportunity...

This kind of dark wizard hiding in the dark is the real headache.

Counting the sun ruins in Egypt this time, Aiwen has destroyed Raven's Claw's plan twice in a row, and they must hate Aiwen now.

Also, Sirius set off to France and Italy to fight against Raven's Claw, and he doesn't know how it is progressing.

Since he left England at the beginning of August, he has never written back...

"This is Cormac McLaggen, and this..." Slughorn said after introducing each one, "Well, it's very pleasant, let's hurry to lunch, you guys Definitely hungry, we can't spend all our time on the introductions. Relax kids, don't be so nervous, this is just a chance to get to know you all a little more. Here, grab a napkin. My lunch is myself Brought it, I remember the licorice wand on the food truck was always too smelly, a poor old man, his digestive system can't take it, do it all... some quail, Bell Compare?"

Max Belby was a thin, nervous boy who looked as nervous as Neville.

He was visibly taken aback by Slughorn's words, and hastily raised the plate in front of him to accept what looked like half a cold quail.

"I was telling this young Marcus just now that I had the honor to teach his uncle Damocles." Slughorn said to Ivan and Harry, who were passing a basket of bread rolls, "Excellent He is a very good wizard, and his Order of Merlin is definitely well deserved. By the way, do you see your uncle often, Marcus?"

Unfortunately, Marcos just had a big mouthful of quail.

He was so eager to answer Slughorn's question that he swallowed so quickly that his face turned liver-coloured, and he was too choked for words.

"Cough cough," Slughorn said calmly, pointing his wand at Belby.

In a blink of an eye, Belby's trachea seemed to be unobstructed.

"No, not much of him," gasped Belby, choking on his tears.

"Yes, of course, I dare say he must be very busy," said Slughorn, looking at Belby questioningly. "I suppose he must have worked hard to invent Wolfsbane?"

"I suppose so..." said Belby, who seemed afraid to eat any more quail until he was sure that Slughorn had finished interrogating him, "well, it must be, but he's not related to my father." Great, so I'm not actually sure..."

Poor guy, he shouldn't have said that in front of Slughorn.

Sure enough, Bellby's voice dropped before he finished speaking.

Because Slughorn gave him a sneer, he ignored him and turned to Cormac McLaggen who was beside him.

Ivan pouted, which was the main reason why he didn't like Slughorn very much.

He handed the bread roll to Hermione, and he had better finish eating and leave.

He didn't want to spend the whole afternoon here, being questioned pointlessly by Slughorn.

But, to be honest, the food prepared by Slughorn was much better than what was served on the train.

The only one who was dissatisfied with the food on the table was Elaine. She frowned and looked at these things, obviously not to her taste.

Chapter 1274 Elaine's Taste

Whether vampires can eat bread, Ivan once asked Elaine this question.

The answer is yes, but it will taste very strange, and the body will instinctively reject it.

If you swallow it forcibly, it is also possible, and it can also produce a feeling of fullness, but there is no way to replenish the magic power.

Also, Elaine never ate.

She doesn't eat anything but dragon's blood, blood candies, and Aven.

This kid is very picky about his diet, otherwise he wouldn't have nearly fainted from starvation back then in Diagon Alley...

The lunch carefully prepared by Slughorn obviously did not satisfy Elaine. He hadn't noticed this situation yet, and was concentrating on inquiring about the students' family situations and asking about those famous relatives in their families.

"And you, Cormac," said Slughorn, "I happen to know that you used to see your Uncle Tiberus a lot, because he had a card with the two of you, well, let me see , a great photo of a giant-tailed hunt in Norfolk, isn't it?"

"Oh, yeah, it was fun," McLaggen said deliberately, "and we had Betty Higgins and Rufus Scrimgeour, of course, when he Before being minister..."

The current Minister of Magic and the head of important departments, McLaggen is obviously much smarter than Belby.

He knew exactly what Slughorn wanted, and he made a point of saying it.

"Ah, you still know Betty and Rufus?" Sure enough, Slughorn smiled all of a sudden, and handed out a small plate of pies to everyone, but for some reason he missed Belby, "Then you come with me." Tell me..."

"Hmph, I figured it out. Probably except for Ginny and us, everyone who can come here was invited because they were related to some influential big shot." Hermione whispered to Ivan .

"This is exactly his style." Ivan said, "Remember Dumbledore told us about his hobbies? I dare say, he plans to re-establish that club at school and is screening members."

In all fairness, being part of the slug club isn't bad.

It would be even better if there wasn't so much Slytherin and intrigue going on here.

"I'm not interested in any club at all, and he doesn't seem to prepare my food." Elaine said, looking at her share of pies and bagels with displeasure, "How can I eat this thing without blood on it?! "

If it's stained with blood, you can't eat it.

Elaine was a little restless, watching others eat was a painful torture when she was hungry.

"Aiwen, do you still have dragon blood?" She swallowed.

"Also, let's go back to eat." Ivan said quickly.

While Elaine eats well, there's no need to publicly show how a vampire eats.

He stood up and everyone looked at him in surprise.

Harry also straightened up hastily. He just heard the conversation between Ivan, Hermione, and Elaine, and he wanted to find an excuse to leave quickly. Before Slughorn brought the topic to his parents, he had I have a hunch that Slughorn will definitely inquire, as well as the prophecy that was hotly discussed some time ago.

These were things Harry didn't want to say, especially not in front of a bunch of Slytherins.

"What's the matter, Ivan?" Slughorn looked at him in surprise.

"It's like this, professor, we..." Ivan walked over and whispered a few words in Slughorn's ear, told him about Elaine's situation, and left by the way.

"Ah, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, I'm so rude, it's my negligence, I didn't take this into consideration." Slughorn said apologetically, noticing Elaine who didn't move, "I forgot Prepare a meal separately."

"It's okay, professor, we have prepared ourselves." Ivan said.

"Can't you eat here? Or come back in a while, you haven't tasted the quail I prepared yet."

"No need, professor, I'm the president of the Boys' Student Union, Hermione and Elaine are still prefects, and I will go on patrol after lunch. You know, taking care of the first-year students is a very important job."

"Yeah, promising students are usually very busy, you go on patrol, don't stay here with me, the old guy." Slughorn said, looking at Elaine with a regretful expression, and then quickly shifted To Harry, Neville, and Ginny who stood up, "Ah, you three don't need to go on patrol, do you?"

Both Neville and Ginny turned to look at Harry, who said hesitantly, "No!"

"Then don't rush to leave, come on, Harry, I just wanted to introduce you to everyone." Slughorn said, moving in his seat in style, like a host launching a big star Like, "Harry Potter! Where do I start? I think I've only scratched the surface when we met over the summer!"

Ivan, Hermione, and Elaine left the box, and Harry looked at the three of them helplessly.

Beside him, Slughorn was still studying him thoughtfully.

With that expression, it seemed that Harry was a plump, delicious and juicy quail.

Then, he said softly, "'Saviour,' that's what they call you now!"

Harry said nothing, he knew it was coming, and the others stared at him.

"Of course, of course." Slughorn said, looking carefully at Harry. "The rumors have been going on for so many years. I remember that, after that terrible night, Lily, James... you narrowly escaped from the hands of the man." , some people say that you must have supernatural power."

Zabini coughed lightly, apparently to express his suspicion and absurdity.

Harry didn't say anything, when suddenly an angry voice came from behind Slughorn.

"Yeah, Zabini, because you're so talented, in posturing!"

"Oh, my God!" Slughorn smiled lightly in relief, turning to look at Ginny.

At this moment, Ginny was glaring at Zabini through Slughorn's belly.

"You've got to watch out, Blaise! I saw this young lady cast a most splendid bat-spirit spell as I was passing her compartment! I wouldn't dare mess with her!"

Hearing Slughorn's reminder, Zabini just looked contemptuous.

"Anyway." Slughorn turned back to Harry, and said, "Rumors have been spreading all over the place this summer. The world of magic is in chaos, and terrible things are happening everywhere. Besides Ivan, you are the hottest My character, Harry, is still talking about the riot that happened inside the Ministry of Magic a few months ago. Of course, there is also the legendary prophecy ball. Rumors are everywhere, people spread rumors, and no one knows What should I believe? The newspapers often publish some wrong information, but from what I know internally, the prophecy ball is obviously related to you and that person, and related to your extraordinary power..."

Chapter 1275 Belonging to Harry's Power

Harry has super strength, and Slughorn seems to have confirmed that.

Everyone is also obviously focused, they are very interested in this topic, everyone knows that a few months ago, Voldemort himself appeared in the Ministry of Magic, which is also considered to be a symbolic event of his resurrection and the beginning of the war .

There are many rumors about the Battle of the Ministry of Magic, but all mention the existence of a mysterious orb of prophecy.

Voldemort wanted the orb of prophecy, which many said held a powerful secret of power.
