Snakes at Hogwarts

"Ender! Ender!"

In the Slytherin common room, Draco gently called Andros's name.

Under the dim light, the latter's face was as pale as white paper.

Xiaolong frowned. He originally planned to make a point about what happened in the library during the day. Unexpectedly, Andros stood there blankly after reading the content on the note. Moved.

What's happening here?

Draco, who didn't understand, scratched his head in confusion. He naturally read the content on the note, which was nothing more than a notification of the time of confinement.

Nothing special?

Is there such a big reaction?

"Hey! Hey! Wake up!" Draco gently patted Andros on the shoulder, but the latter remained indifferent.

I don’t know if it’s because of his relatively balanced diet, but 11-year-old Andros has grown much faster than Draco. He is now half a head taller than Xiaolong.

Could it be that he was cursed by someone?

He was indeed the young master of the Malfoy family. Draco almost immediately thought whether there was some curse placed on this note.

After all, there were a lot of such things in their home, and Draco had been exposed to them since childhood and had some basic common sense.

For a wizard, casting a curse on an object is as simple as eating and drinking, but it is not difficult.

For example, in the original book, the parchment that Hermione created containing the list of all members of Dumbledore's Army had a curse attached to it.

Anyone who signs a name on the parchment who snitches will have her or his face covered with purple pustules, giving the word "snitch."

She was only in fifth grade at that time.

There was also the opal necklace that Draco intended to use to murder Dumbledore, which had a terrible curse on it.

The opal necklace claimed the lives of nineteen Muggles before Malfoy bought it from Borgin Burke's.

Magic has always been weird and dangerous, and every user who comes into contact with magic needs to be extra careful.

Because if you don't pay attention, it will open its mouth and reveal a set of sharp fangs.

In history, many outstanding wizards did not fall under the enemy's spell, but fell into such despicable assassinations.

The wizard's magic is always hard to guard against.

...

Just when Draco was thinking about asking a few senior students to carry Andros to the school nurse's room to see Madam Pomfrey, Andros finally came to his senses.

"Ah~I~you~were you talking to me just now?" Andros raised his head and glanced at Draco blankly.

He had just recovered from the violent shock of information and had not heard clearly what Draco had said before.

Just now, Andros suddenly realized a very serious problem. Besides himself, there was actually the savior Porter on this batch of closed lists!

This is not a good thing.

Could it be that he had inadvertently replaced Draco's position in the original novel? A possibility suddenly occurred to him.

Will I go to the Forbidden Forest with Harry, Ron and Hagrid tomorrow?

No way?

Due to this sudden confinement, the plot has been completely disrupted. Even Andros is not sure whether their confinement will take place in the Forbidden Forest.

Moreover, he also didn't know whether Voldemort had started harassing the group of unicorns in the Forbidden Forest at this point in time.

He was not familiar with Hagrid, so where could he get that information?

In fact, if Andros himself was the only one being punished, he would not be so nervous.Even if he was really punished to follow Hagrid to patrol the Forbidden Forest, Voldemort, who was possessing Quirrell's head, probably wouldn't bother to talk to him.

But it’s different now!

But beside him is the savior Potter!

As we all know, nothing good happens to anyone who has anything to do with Potter at Hogwarts.

If you really bump into a mysterious person...

"It can't be such a coincidence, well, it certainly won't be." Andros kept comforting himself.

In the original book, Harry and the others were imprisoned, but after Christmas, there is a full two months difference between now and now!

He must have been overthinking it. The most Filch could do was ask them to clean up the castle.

"Yes, that's definitely the case. At most, it's just a matter of cleaning up the castle and wiping off those trophies."

"Well, that must be the case."

Looking at Andros, who lowered his head again and muttered to himself, Draco frowned.

Is this a fool?

Could it be that a mental retardation curse was cast on him?

"Ender, are you okay?" Draco asked softly.

"Ah~I~I'm okay? What's wrong?" Andros came back to his senses and looked at Draco again.

"Why do I feel that something is not right with you? Do you want to go to the campus hospital for a checkup?"

"No~ no need, I may be a little tired, let's go sit over there for a while."

The two of them randomly found a sofa next to the fire and sat down. The warm air gently brushed Andros's cheeks, and the color gradually returned to his pale face.

"What happened just now? Why did you suddenly stop talking?" Draco asked.

"It's nothing, I'm just obsessed with thinking about things."

"Really?" Draco still looked doubtful.

"To be honest, I have always wanted to know what is the difference between genius brains and normal people like us. Why can you suddenly enter that kind of thinking state? I thought you were under some evil curse! "

"Maybe it's because I'm more attentive. If I don't talk about this, let me ask you, do you know what kind of punishment students who are locked up in solitary confinement generally suffer?"

"How could I possibly know!" Draco shook his head exaggeratedly.

"In the first grade, you are the first student to win this honor. Zabini and I are still waiting for you to come back and share your experience with us!"

Looking at Andros, who had black lines all over his head, Draco continued to add with a playful smile.

"But I heard from those senior students that being in solitary confinement seems to be nothing more than following Filch or cleaning the prize room. However, the old pervert only allows students to do things with their hands and not use magic."

Phew, I feel relieved now.

Andros breathed a sigh of relief when Draco said this.

As long as you don't go to the Forbidden Forest, it's not difficult to tolerate that old guy Filch.

"Hey, are you scared?" Sensing Andros's expression, Draco raised his eyebrows proudly.

"How is that possible! When have I, Andros, been scared!"

"Even when I faced that three-headed dog, I wasn't as scared as you were!"
