HP: The Shadow Returns

On Saturday, Christmas was coming soon, and the whole castle was filled with a rare joy. You know, since the dementors were stationed around the castle, it was difficult for the joyful atmosphere to be high again.

It's as if they can absorb the joy of everything around them.

"Ms. Hillelite, Merry Christmas~" The Weasley twins hugged the woman in the corridor, each holding a bouquet of flowers with a smile.

"It's so beautiful, thank you"

Cindy Gao smiled and took it, only to find that there was an elf inside that was constantly spreading light. Her eyelids twitched uncontrollably.

There are many more "warm" scenes like this in the castle.

But this has nothing to do with Sansaro

After she sent the gift, she never paid attention to anything else. Instead, she secretly asked the three snakes and the Slavs, including Bone, to expand the search area for Sirius's location.

The longer time goes on, the more likely it is that the truth will be revealed, and Peter Pettigrew had better act quickly.

As long as he was a useful Death Eater, Sansaro curled her lips in disdain, but unfortunately, Peter was one of the types of people she looked down on the most.

Daphne saw her still grading homework and came up to her and asked, "Didn't the dean give you a day off?"

"Obviously not, but it's worth saying that the dean has more work to do," Sansaro said, turning over the next student's homework.

Daphne glanced at the content on the paper and immediately frowned, "This must be from Gryffindor. What do you mean by pouring 3kg of fresh food directly into it? Is he crazy?"

Based on her words, Sansaro circled and crossed out that part. When he saw the red lion and name next to it, he raised his eyebrows.

"Gryffindor indeed"

"I knew that even if the children of Slytherin were not smart, they would not be able to put all 3kg of fresh food in."

Daphne looked very proud of finding her mistake. After thinking about it, Sansaro gave her half of the homework with a smile.

"This is all Gryffindor"

"Haha." Daphne took over the homework and raised the corners of her mouth crazily. "Then I'll let them experience the joy of failing! If Astoria can do it, I can do it too."

While they were reviewing their homework, Sansaro was caught off guard and suddenly asked

"Where's Pansy? Why can't I see her recently?"

Daphne was picking out the words one by one very seriously at this moment, lying on the brown paper and saying

"Who knows? Following Draco? That's all she likes. I really don't know what's good about that proud and arrogant Malfoy."

"I mean, besides being rich and powerful."

Sansaro's lips curled up slightly, "That's true. What about Blaise Zabini? I heard that you and him seemed to be quite close some time ago."

"Intimate?" Daphne suddenly felt like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. She straightened up and asked loudly, "Really? I mean, no, how could it be? We have nothing to do with each other, he has a girlfriend."

Daphne's frantically defensive voice gradually dropped as she spoke, and her expression looked a little lost.

After a long silence, Sansaro's cold voice sounded.

"Don't you think what your sister said makes sense?"

"Why don't you love yourself first? Or make yourself stronger? Don't think about letting love surround you, Daphne."

"That thing is of no use. Power and money are a girl's best friends."

After Daphne heard this, she slowly turned her head, and Sansaro's back stood straight there, bright and sacred under the light of the water.

She swallowed, not knowing what to think.

Sansaro didn't say anything more. She was just interested for a moment. After grading all the homework, she handed it over to Daphne.

"Just give it to the dean, I have something else to do."

"Ok"

The girl in the corridor smiled happily when she saw Sansaro appearing.

"You're here, Senior Sister Nasitan." Astoria saw the girl at the first sight and went up to hold her hand.

"Yes, have you learned that spell?" she asked softly, bending her eyes.

"I think I'm sure." Astoria nodded, with a bright little expression as if she was destined to win.

"Then I'll be looking forward to it."

The two of them followed the ever-changing escalator to the Room of Requirement. Sansaro gently pushed Astoria's back.

The girl immediately understood and walked back and forth under the tapestry wall three times.

(I need a place to practice my spells)

The door opened in response, Sansaro raised his hand and touched Astoria's head calmly.

"Go, go."

"Stick to the old rules, use all your strength." Sansaro didn't even take out his wand, but took a few steps back and looked at Astoria calmly.

"I will"

After the girl said firmly, she took out her wand and pointed the tip towards her.

"Lock Colloportus quickly"

She was easily blocked by Sansa Rogge. She didn't even have a wand, but she just turned sideways.

"continue"

“Fire-flaming Incendio”

"Expelliarmus Expelliarmus"

“Furnunculus is hot and spicy”

Sansaro stepped back and pointed out her unqualified areas with a frown.

"No, you should relax your magic power a little more, move it a little to the right, and get used to the intensity of the magic spell every time!"

"Astoria! Focus!"

More than half an hour passed like this, Astoria was already out of breath, but Sansaro was still no different from when he first came in.

She looked down at the girl squatting on the ground and said lightly

"Your physical strength is too low, but your progress is not bad."

Sansaro's praise was very rare, and Astoria knew this very well. She panted and slowly got up from the ground. Her study day and night must have paid off.

"Let's stop here today, go back and have a good rest, and come back next Saturday."

"Okay, then when can I learn stronger black magic?" Astoria hesitated for a moment and looked at Sansaro and asked slightly expectantly.

"Maybe it will take some time, you..."

Before Sansa Luo finished speaking, the door of the Room of Requirement was opened from the outside. She quickly turned her head and frowned. It was a bit unreasonable, but it was not completely impossible.

Seeing the person coming, Astoria opened her eyes and subconsciously looked up at her. Sansaro's expression relaxed again and became expressionless and slightly cold.

It's Theodore.

But now his condition is obviously very bad. The aura of pain emanating from the inside is tightly wrapped around him. His eyes are slightly red, looking like a fragile crystal, haggard and fragile.

"I'm not bothering you"

Theodore's voice was hoarse and suppressed, like a piece of cotton being torn open on both sides.

Astoria looked at him, and she felt something was wrong. It was clear that Master Nott was still an elegant young man a few months ago.

between the two of them....

"You go back first, Astoria," Sansaro said calmly, patting the girl in front of him on the shoulder.

"Yeah" Astoria didn't think any more. She walked towards the door and glanced twice as she passed by Nott.

It wasn't until the extra people left that Theodore slowly walked towards Sansaro.
