HP: The Shadow Returns

"Sansaro is also an orphan?" The three of them were driven out of the inspected showroom by Filch. They were walking back to the lounge. On the moving stairs, Harry, who had been thinking for a long time, suddenly asked.

"I thought she had always been in a wizarding family." Ron looked a little guilty. "So, she will definitely not have a good time in Slytherin when school starts."

"Yes! So that's why I told you not to take out Slytherin's anger on Sansaro, she is a very nice person! You should apologize to her!"

Hermione wanted to give them both a head start.

"I'll definitely go when I find time, okay?" Ron was very dissatisfied with her scolding tone.

Listening to the chatter in his ears, Harry, who was silent, felt like he had found a similar resonance in his heart.

The three people on the Slytherin side had already sat on the sofa and started drinking hot tea. Since it was past seven o'clock, almost everyone was eating in the hall at this time, and there were only three of them in the lounge at the moment.

Theodore raised his hand and summoned a house elf, "Two steaks, vegetables, and two glasses of hot citrus juice."

He looked at Sansaro, saw that the other party had no objection, and then turned his attention to Draco.

"And a cod steak and pasta." After waiting for Draco to finish, Theodore let the elf leave.

They were surrounding the bonfire in the fireplace. Sansaro was still sitting at the main seat farthest from the flames. The lines of the flames were reflected on her face, which made her look somewhat attractive and mysterious.

"Why did you stop me just now?" Draco hesitated for a long time, and finally turned to look at Sansaro who was drinking tea calmly and asked.

She didn't speak. She lowered her eyes and blew the black tea in the cup gently as if she couldn't hear. The owl stood on the handle and cooed. Her yellow eyes stared at Draco, as if to say that he had been targeted.

Draco didn't even realize that he was rubbing his toes on the ground uneasily.

"While she's gone, you can torture that Muggleborn however you want and no one will care about you."

After a while, Theodore leaned against the back of the sofa, crossed his hands on his thighs, and spoke with a cool look. He seemed to understand what Sansaro was thinking in his heart.

Seeing that the girl didn't refute, Draco wrinkled his nose. Why didn't he realize that the two of them were so connected before? The portion Theodore ordered just now was probably for her.

"Thank you, Theodore" Sansaro put down the cup as if nothing had happened and smiled softly at him.

He knew it was because of the order he had just made. He glanced at the smile on the girl's face and said slowly, "You're welcome."

The atmosphere between them was still a little weird. As the food quickly arrived on the table, the dinner for several people also ended in this strange atmosphere.

When Sansaro was about to go back to the dormitory, Draco walked over to her and said, "I didn't target you at the time. Maybe you were offended. I'm sorry."

Sansaro looked at the suppressed blush on his face. It seemed that it was very difficult for the noble Malfoy to say such "low-profile" words.

She waved her hand casually, "It doesn't matter, I don't care, good night."

"Good night"

Sansaro walked up the stairs. As if he suddenly remembered something, he stopped and looked back at Theodore, who was watching them beside the sofa, and said softly.

"Good night, Theodore"

With that, she turned the corner.

Only Theodore and Draco were left standing quietly in the lounge.

......

The last Potions class ended quickly the next day, and Theodore still didn't come over to join her, but Sansaro was no longer in the mood to think about it.

She had a strange premonition that something would happen during tonight's patrol in the Forbidden Forest.

I can’t tell whether it’s a good thing or a bad thing.

To be on the safe side, Sansaro secretly asked Bone to go around the inside and outside of the Forbidden Forest to make sure everything was normal, but she still didn't feel relieved.

After all, where the savior is, who knows what dangers there may be.

Night fell, and the temperature was not high tonight. Sansa Rodo wore a furry scarf around his neck.

Filch ferociously threatened the six of them while leading them towards Hagrid's cabin.

Her pale face had always been expressionless, but Ron kept looking at her, as if he had something to say.

However, with Theodore and Draco standing in the way, and facing those two cold and mocking expressions, he finally couldn't say anything. Hermione, who had been urging him, let out a long sigh of helplessness.

True to the warning in their eyes, Harry raised his hand and greeted Sansaro directly.

Theodore's eyes turned cold. He finally knew why Draco hated him so much, because the savior himself was disgusting.

Hagrid saw their figures from a distance, and he waved to them happily.

"You are here, be prepared, we need to bring some things with you before we can pass."

He handed Harry a kerosene lamp, and after Filch left, Hagrid took them walking into the Forbidden Forest. On the way, he happily shared the status of the little dragon Norbert.

"That child likes to eat beef very much. He is now bigger than his teeth!"

"Oh, you can't raise a dragon in such a small place."

Draco spoke to them in a very bad tone, but he seemed to be very afraid of the dark Forbidden Forest, and walked closely beside the two of them.

Seeing the frustrated expression on the big man's face, Ron muttered comforting words, "Although I hate Malfoy, but this is the truth, Hagrid."

Listening to several people's thorny chats from time to time.

Sansaro has been quietly observing the surrounding environment. From time to time, the cold wind will bring a few faint wolf howls in the lifeless forbidden forest, which is different from Draco's fear.

She actually felt that the environment here was very comfortable, and she felt like she had returned to the manor.

Theodore seemed to be aware of the girl's pleasure, and his rare and soft peripheral vision never left Sansaro.

A few minutes later, they came to a big tree with two forked roads. Hagrid turned around and said to them.

"We need to patrol separately. Ron and Hermione can join me."

"What!?" Draco screamed, and Ron and Hermione were also surprised. He asked loudly at Hagrid in confusion.

"They are all Slytherins! You leave Harry alone? They will definitely find an opportunity to kill him!"

These words made Sansaro frown, and Hermione hit Ron on the back in time to make him realize the inappropriateness of his words.

Hagrid seemed to realize that this allocation was unreasonable, but Harry unexpectedly raised his hand and refused.

"It doesn't matter, then the four of us can stay together. Sansaro is here."

Harry met her eyes, Sansaro exhaled white breath, most of his pale face was hidden in the scarf and said calmly

"Don't worry, Mr. Weasley, we are not such cruel people."

She stopped calling Ron by his name. Ron pursed his lips and Hermione rolled her eyes. She really felt that the red-haired Weasley next to her was completely hopeless.

"Okay, then we'll see you in half an hour."

After receiving the assurance, Hagrid gave them another kerosene lamp. After saying this, he took Hermione and Ron away. Looking at Hermione's careful mouth shape, Sansaro smiled at her.

"You're not scared, are you? Malfoy?" Harry threw the kerosene lamp directly next to Malfoy, and then handed the other to Theodore.

"You don't want Sansaro to hold it, do you?"

Theodore glanced at him coldly, stepped forward and took it without saying a word, then quickly returned to the girl's side.

"I'm not afraid. Besides, why should I take it? Only servants did it!" Draco was very unconvinced.

But according to this standard, the servant in his words obviously included Theodore, although Theodore did not pay attention to this.

Harry raised his eyebrows darkly, and Draco, realizing that he had said the wrong thing, picked up the kerosene lamp angrily, but he also leaned next to Sansaro.

Harry followed closely and walked over. Draco was about to reprimand, but suddenly remembered the conversation in the lounge. In the end, he just moved his lips with a dark face.

"Humph"
