Hogwarts lazy snake

Returning to the Slytherin common room, Horn immediately saw three distinct groups of people gathered in the middle.

On one side were five people headed by Carlo. Carlo raised his chin slightly, his eyes revealing arrogance and calculation, and his flickering gaze seemed to be plotting a conspiracy.

Behind him stood four classmates, some tall, some short, some fat, some thin, but without exception they all had unfriendly expressions, as if they were ready to charge into battle for Carlo at any time.

They pressed close together, their Slytherin robes swaying slightly as if to show their unity and determination.

On the other side were Draco's two little followers. The tall figures of Goyle and Crabbe were particularly conspicuous like two small mountains. Their strong arms were crossed in front of their chests, giving people a strong sense of oppression.

There were two men and two women standing around them. One of the girls had a pretty face and a hint of pride in her eyes. Her medium-length hair fell to her chin, swaying gently with her movements, as if expressing her pride.

There was another group of people who seemed a little lonely, and that was only Carlotta with brown hair and purple eyes. Carlotta stood there quietly, with a hint of disdain in her eyes.

Her purple pupils were like mysterious gemstones, sparkling with a unique light. Her long brown hair was slightly curly and casually scattered on her shoulders, adding a bit of playfulness and agility to her.

Beside her was a little witch who looked a little frail. She leaned close to Carlotta, as if she was looking for a sense of security in this tense atmosphere. Her eyes were a little nervous and uneasy, and her hands were tightly grasping the corners of her robes.

In addition, there were two half-blood wizards who were sorted into Slytherin. They stood aside with a hesitant look. One of the half-blood wizards kept rubbing his hands, his eyes wandering between the three groups of people. He didn't want to participate in the fight, but seemed to be observing the situation secretly, waiting for the right opportunity.

Several little wizards looked at Horn from time to time, as if waiting for his statement, their eyes full of expectation and trust.

After seeing Horn come in, Carlo first shrank his neck and said provocatively to Draco who was following him: "Malfoy, I want to be the first-year prefect, and you want to be one too. Now it's almost been a week, have you decided yet?"

After that, he looked at Horn, suppressed the memories in his mind, and asked vaguely, "Nicholas, you were in the school infirmary before and didn't know the situation. Prefect Floyd said that we first-years can choose an invisible first-year prefect. This is also an unwritten rule of Slytherin and even Hogwarts."

"What are you thinking now? Are you going to fight with us?"

Carlo secretly thought that if Horn also got involved, things would become more complicated. But the position of invisible prefect was too attractive to him, so he couldn't back down even if he was a little scared.

He looked at the two people in front of him, a hint of nervousness in his eyes and beads of sweat on his forehead.

"Carlo, even if I want to fight, so what? Are you trying to sow discord?"

Horn looked at Carlo's tricks and laughed in his heart. These were all played by his ancestors. Although he knew, some things happened and he couldn't just ignore them. He turned his head and said to the side: "Xiaolong, for glory, come on!"

Moreover, he has already fooled Draco this morning... bah... He has treated him with emotion and reason, and now he still wants to instigate him. What a little kid! How ridiculous.

Draco was not stupid, and he also heard the provocation from the other side, as well as Horn's hint: "Deka Carlo, tell me, how do you want to solve this?!"

"Also, are the wizards of the Carlo family such fools who try to be clever? I tell you, Horn will not participate in this opportunity to be a prefect." He looked up at the other party with disdain, full of momentum, and nodded at Horn, then walked in front of the group of people who supported him.

"Come on, Master Draco!"

"We all support you, Master Draco. You will definitely become the winner."

Seeing Draco coming up to them, the two loyal men Goyle and Crabbe immediately greeted him.

At this time, the girl stepped forward, raised her chin slightly, and introduced herself: "I am Pansy Parkinson, Draco, we will definitely support you to become the class leader."

Draco nodded slightly, and his determination to win the competition became stronger. His eyes flashed with determination, as if telling everyone that he was the most qualified person to be the prefect.

"Carlotta, what's going on with you?" At the same time, Horn quickly walked to Carlotta and asked in a low voice.

Carlotta raised her chin slightly, with a look of indifference in her eyes, and said slowly: "I have no interest in the position of invisible prefect."

After that, she glanced at the little wizard behind her, and then introduced the little witch who looked a little frail beside her: "This is Feilier, my roommate."

"Hello! I'm... Filier!" When Filier heard Carlotta introduce herself, her eyes flashed with excitement, but also a little shy. She looked at Horn and greeted him carefully.

Horn looked at the little witch in front of him who was slightly taller than him, with some freckles on her face and long golden hair. He secretly complained that she was taller than him again, but he still greeted her politely: "Hello, Horn! I know. I heard your name when the shabby hat was sorted."

Carlotta saw Horn turned his head to look at her, and knew what he was wondering, so she took the lead in explaining the current situation: "The people behind saw me standing aside, so they followed. I guess they don't want to offend both sides, and plan to wait until the final winner emerges before choosing a camp."

"Of course, there are also some people who may expect you to be the invisible prefect." Having said that, she looked at the two half-blood wizards whose eyes were filled with excitement and nervousness.

"After all, from the station to the auditorium, and to the classes these days, those who asked you for help and those who did not ask you for help, you, a kind and powerful wizard, have placed great expectations on them."

"Compared with that yellow-haired boy and Carlo's annoying behavior, you are the most outstanding. Although you are a half-blood, when others questioned your half-blood status, Draco swore that you were the heir of an ancient wizarding family and a pure-blood. With the guarantee of the Malfoy family, you have become a 'pure-blood' in the eyes of everyone."

"Horn, could what that yellow-haired boy said be true? Are you really from a vampire family?"

At the end, Carlotta suddenly said this, which immediately made Horn suspicious when she just spoke, wondering if the other party was replaced by Voldemort. She could actually say such a thing, confirming that it was her.

"Everyone, you are standing here because of your own power. I want to make it clear that I have just said that I have no interest in the position of invisible prefect."

Horn paused here, turned around and walked towards Draco while speaking. "So, you understand, but compared to the two of them, who should I choose? I am a very superficial person. I choose Draco Malfoy."

The other two groups of people were also talking about it, but when they saw Horn moving around, they all looked sideways. Carlo didn't feel anything about Horn not choosing him. After all, there was a conflict. He just didn't expect that the other party really didn't think about competing and chose to stand with Malfoy.

"Horn, I've been waiting for you." Draco was overjoyed when he saw Horn coming over. Even though he knew that the other party didn't want to be the invisible prefect, he still couldn't help feeling a little worried.

However, when I saw the other person coming over, I also felt ashamed of my worry just now, and wondered how could I not trust my friend.

At this time, Carlotta came over holding Fili's hand, and said with a smile: "Draco, look at you, you are so nervous about Horn. If someone doesn't know, they would think you have some special relationship."

Draco was slightly startled, a little surprised at Carlotta's statement, but when he saw her standing next to Horn, he snorted and said, "What do you know? This is trust between friends."

Seeing Carlotta teasing Draco, Pansy suddenly felt dissatisfied. She immediately jumped out and said, "Don't talk nonsense. Draco and Horn are just good friends. Don't make jokes."

"And you were neutral just now, but now you are teasing Draco. What do you want to do? You are not trying to compete for the position of prefect, are you? If so, you are really not firm in your stance." Pansy stared at Carlotta, hoping that she would realize her mistake.

After all, in her opinion, Draco was the most qualified person to be the invisible prefect, and Carlotta's behavior made her feel that she was unable to change her attitude.

Carlotta shrugged, smiled disapprovingly, and started chatting and laughing with Fier, as if she didn't care at all about what happened next.

Following the actions of Horn and Carlotta, the group in the middle also began to move towards Draco's camp. After all, since Horn stood with Malfoy, they thought that with their relationship, Horn could at least make Draco have a better attitude towards half-bloods. Besides, some of them were there and saw and heard what happened in the restaurant last night.

Compared with Draco, Horn's usual actions were more trustworthy, and now that they were together, there was nothing much to say.

However, when Caro's group saw that the enemy's troops were increasing in number, and heard people starting to discuss behind them, they knew that they had been defeated miserably.
