Hogwarts: Atypical Slytherin

Chapter 23 The secrets of people around you

"Claudie, I'm worried about you." The next day, Claudie met Helles at breakfast. Helles jumped up to her side lively, gave her a gentle hug, and then sat next to her.

"Heles." Crowney laughed, "I saw the card and condolences you gave me!"

"Is it because you've been too busy lately?" Helles asked worriedly about Clooney's situation, "Do you want to take some rest?"

"It's me." Clooney said while drinking sweet milk. "It should be an accident with the little magic that I studied before. There won't be another accident!"

"Thank you for your concern, Helles." Crowney said, "Why didn't you see Amelia today?"

"She went to see her brother Woodrow today and said she had something to discuss. We haven't had dinner together recently!"

"So that's it." Clooney nodded, "Then our study sessions will continue as usual from today on!"

"Claudine." Helles had finished her meal and turned to face her.

"What's the matter?" Clooney turned his head, looked at the girl sitting upright and laughed, "Why are you so serious all of a sudden?"

"You have helped us a lot." Helles was not disturbed by this smile, "You have also helped me a lot. You may not know it."

Crowney stopped eating and turned his head.

"I understand, Helles. But is this what I should do as a friend?"

"I mean, Clooney." Helles paused, and then said, "I mean, if you need my help in any way, you must tell me."

"As your friend, Clowney."

"Also as a Wilson."

"I understand, Helles." Crowney nodded, "I understand what you mean."

As one of the families that was not included in the Twenty-Eight Holy Clan, Wilson maintained the habit of only intermarrying among wizards for a long time during the First Wizarding War, which continues to this day. However, they did not enjoy the aftereffects of Voldemort's pure-blood policy. Although they directly eliminated the possibility of Muggle blood entering family marriages during the First Wizarding War, they were not found in the recorded classics. Someone in the family has joined the ranks of "Death Eaters". (Death Eaters: the self-proclaimed name of Voldemort's followers), they are ambiguous as to whether they support Voldemort's ideas.

Although there has never been a conclusion as to whether the Wilson family participated in the First Wizarding War, most people of Slytherin origin believe that Wilson has contributed to Voldemort's political cause to some extent - otherwise they It’s impossible to survive swaying from side to side.

As shrewd as Malfoy is, even if he knew Malfoy's identity as a "former Death Eater", the Malfoy family was in full swing after the First Wizarding War - this is in stark contrast to the many Death Eaters who were imprisoned. Compared.

"Emilia's family also has this idea." Helles whispered, "This is what she and her brother were talking about recently."

"Next, there should be more people who want to make friends with you." Helles said, "There may also be other people accompanying them."

Then she straightened up.

"What I can guarantee is that Wilson will be there for you. Clowney."

"Thank you, Helles." Clooney returned her hug, "I will remember your words, I promise."

Crowney knew what Helles meant. Their study meetings, by the second half of the second half of the school year, were no longer limited to discussing the content of the class - although for some reasons, the Defense Against the Dark Arts courses were still based on the script - but other than that Besides, they added something else.

For example, Muggle politics and economics.

Of course, Clooney was not stupid enough to directly introduce Muggle ideas to his Slytherin classmates. He just used his own side to do some market research with classmates who had market advantages, and jointly started some small businesses with friends in private. Buying and selling, and achieving great results. Even during this period, they also discussed some development directions of the next study meeting, which included some of Clooney's personal thoughts.

Most of the resources in the magic world are in the hands of the older families, which makes the strong desire of the emerging families to get a piece of the pie unsatisfied. Of course, people seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. When something has only risks but no benefits for them, of course they will refuse to do it. In the First Wizarding War, although many small families had to be coerced by Voldemort's iron-blooded policy to participate in the war, in general, even if Voldemort won, the resources of the wizarding world would not be reshuffled: the families that supported his pure-blood assertion Most of them are famous among the Twenty-Eight Saint Clan. Except for a few Muggle-loving families, almost all native wizarding families are swept by this idea. After Voldemort's victory, these families with the most contributions and the best talents will of course be rewarded. And other small groups will continue to exist as marginal tool people.

No one would be that stupid. But no one would be stupid enough to oppose the spread of this idea that would not infringe on their own interests when he was at the height of his power.

When there was nothing to eat from Voldemort's pot, these small families were already ready to take action. They were trying to find new ways to accumulate. But Voldemort seemed so indestructible at the time that no one could predict his failure. After the disappearance of Voldemort, after more than ten years of reshuffling, new wizards of Muggle descent poured into the wizarding world after the war, and the original pro-Muggle faction of the wizarding world gradually occupied teaching, education and administrative positions, the new idea of ​​equality also emerged. began to spread. This is indeed a great opportunity accompanied by great changes.

As a Slytherin with pure Muggle blood, Clooney has extraordinary talents that are visible to the naked eye, calmness beyond her age, and a surprisingly firm attitude towards blood theory, which makes these little snakes who accept her real help have a crush on her. There was an inexplicable sense of trust.

As the study meeting further deepened and expanded, the elders of these small and unstable families quickly smelled something similar to Zeng Jin before the great change.

However, Helles didn't think so much. Having received a pure magic education, she could only understand that she liked this beautiful and powerful girl. The purity of her bloodline could not prevent her charm from being known to everyone.

"But fortunately, I'm one step ahead of everyone else." Helles thought mentally, "At least that's the case in Slytherin."

Helles knew that there were children from other houses who were friends with Clooney, and even some of them had a close relationship with her, but at least in Slytherin, she was the first to know about this treasure hidden under the beautiful and powerful skin. ——Her insides are even more eye-catching.

"I'm different from those fools who only know how to look at faces." Helles cheered inwardly. She could feel that some of the silent Slytherins had long been tempted to move because of Clooney's appearance. Unfortunately, this one There's more to the pretty brunette than just her looks - she even has a hard fist - and Beck's got a taste of it. Since the Baker incident, Helles' original thoughts have deviated slightly under the influence of repeated observations of Baker's extreme mood: from the initial trial and appreciation to wanting to make friends with rising stars who stand out from their peers. The friend's extreme urgency evolved into a deep pursuit.

"Most boys are fools." Helles secretly rejoiced, "For example, the idiot Baker actually wants to use this insulting method to attract the attention of the girl he likes."

This attentive girl had long discovered the love at first sight hidden under Baker's unreasonable appearance. Unfortunately, this silly boy who was brainwashed by pure-blood thoughts could only think of using this method to attract Claudio's attention. His insults were full of condescension. Derogation and prejudice embedded in his bones make the words he blurts out more hurtful than ordinary people.

"This is not what Slytherin does." Helles thought as he followed Clooney's movements to stand up and followed her to the right, and they walked side by side out of the auditorium.

"Belittlement cannot hurt people who don't care about you. It can even make strong people feel disgusted."

"If I like something, I have to get it. But if what I love is the goshawk flying in the sky and seeking a broader world, I can only win her heart by making her happy and free."

"You cannot chain a bird that has enjoyed the vastness of the sky, and an iron cage will only make her eclipse."

"Only faithful love can make her remember to go home when she is soaring high."

Helles didn't know how long this strange infatuation would last, but this feeling of happiness made her ecstatic: because of this emotion, she could feel that she was constantly moving forward and becoming a better version of herself. And this obsession never let her down.

How long can young, palpable love last? Helles didn't want to think about it. She only understood that this was the first time she had learned to hibernate, hide her demands, restrain her desires, and then learn to inadvertently and clumsily insert her own existence into these hidden corners.

"This is too crazy." Helles raised the corner of his mouth and casually touched Clooney's finger holding the school bag.

"But this is so joyful," she thought.
