Hogwarts becomes host

By the time Harry and Adair arrived at the centaurs tribe, it was already past midnight the next day.

Not to mention the reluctance of the centaurs elders, most of the centaurs were unwilling to let humans into their homes. They were only willing to let the two of them rest against the wall.

It wasn't until Adair mentioned Dumbledore's name and that both of them looked like harmless children that they were allowed to enter the tribe.

But they could only stay at the edge of the camp. The horsemen were always watching them, and the arrival of the two made them a little nervous.

Under the cover of night, Harry couldn't see the whole centaurs tribe clearly. He could only vaguely see two or three simple wooden buildings. Several centaurs were patrolling along the wooden walls surrounding the village with bows in hand.

Fires were lit in many places in the tribe, and Harry saw some centaurs standing motionless, not knowing whether they were looking at the stars or falling asleep.

I heard that horses can sleep standing up, and the body structure of horse people also makes it difficult for them to lie down like humans...

There were also half-lying centaurs around the fire. They occasionally added firewood to make the fire burn more vigorously. They would also throw some leaves or plants into the fire, causing a large cloud of pungent smoke to rise, and then stare at the mist in a daze.

"If you stay here, you don't have to worry about being attacked. I've already informed Dumbledore. The centaurs will help us guard. You can go to sleep."

Despite their bad attitude, the centaurs still prepared firewood, water and fruits for them. Adair used the transfiguration spell to turn the firewood into a blanket and threw it to Harry who was desperately drinking water.

After walking in the forest for nearly three hours, he was thirsty and tired, and almost collapsed when he entered the centaur village.

"Uh here"

"Yes, don't even think about entering the house. Only female centaurs and elders are qualified to live in the building. Anyone who approaches the building without authorization will be attacked. The centaurs do not have a good impression of wizards. They are a very proud group. "

With a flick of the wand, the fire ignited. Adair took out the golden parchment used to communicate with Dumbledore and started writing, while admonishing Harry.

"If you want to go to the toilet, just tell the centaur. Don't walk around without permission, look around, and don't treat them as wild beasts. Think about the courtesy you should have when visiting other people's homes." He pointed to his eyes and said, "Now the wizard group No one knows the real life of the horse people yet. It’s not that you don’t want to check, but you don’t want to offend them. Suppress your curiosity and be careful of being shot blind. Horse people are keen and good at bows and arrows. They know that you are peeking.”

Now that you say that, don’t let the live cameras shoot everywhere xddd

It's okay. Peeping without being caught can be called voyeurism or sightseeing.

"Ok"

Harry swallowed, wiped his mouth and lay down with a blanket.

With thick blankets and a fire, even sleeping rough in a Scottish forest in January is enough to get some rest.

But maybe he was used to sleeping on the soft four-poster bed in Hogwarts, or maybe the events he had experienced tonight were too shocking. Harry couldn't fall asleep lying on the hard ground. He was obviously very tired, and now the thoughts kept echoing in his mind. Hearing Voldemort's sinister laughter, the scars were also hurting, all combined to make him unable to sleep.

"That Mr. Adair"

"how"

"Is Voldemort hiding in the school now? Who do you think he is possessing?"

"I don't know, we don't have the right to examine everyone." Adair stopped writing and replied, "Wizards have many secrets, so they are generally unwilling to let others examine their bodies. Unless it is for treatment or for special reasons, even the Ministry of Magic will not force them to do so. It would be humiliating for a wizard to take off his robes, not to mention further testing of magic."

"Then, let him keep possessing you. What if he randomly attacks students in the school─"

"Don't worry, he doesn't want to attract too much attention, otherwise you would have died long ago. Now his goal is to resurrect. Killing you and me are secondary. Of course, he will also cause trouble for us when he is free, but that is not what you should do. Something to worry about.”

"But"

"Let me put it bluntly, so what if you know who Voldemort is possessing? Do you want to challenge him for a duel?" Adair said coldly, "Your parents did not sacrifice their lives to protect you to let you commit suicide. You can't even defeat this child. You What's the use of going to Voldemort now other than to bring death and cause trouble? If Lily is still here, she will definitely break both of your legs. I'm quite happy to help. Do you want to try it?"

Harry hurriedly retracted his legs into the blanket, a little unwillingly, but he had to admit that Adair was right.

"But the man possessed by Voldemort"

"He's dead. Dumbledore can't save him. There's nothing we can do about it. He asked for it."

""

Harry was silent for a while, and then hesitantly spoke to Adair.

"If I can determine who it is, you and Professor Dumbledore can work together to subdue him and perhaps rescue the possessed man."

"Oh can you identify who the Dark Lord is possessing?"

"Yes, he is possessed by Snape." Harry said categorically. "Snape wants to steal the Sorcerer's Stone, sir. He has been threatening Professor Quirrell for a long time. I'm pretty sure─"

Hearing what he said, Adair finally stopped writing and stared directly at Harry. Harry was not sure what Adair's eyes meant. He looked very complicated and a little pitiful.

Being played with, poor savior, the wizarding world is really hopeless.

No way, the external brain is in Hermione

"I, I receive after-school tutoring from Professor Quirrell, so I know and have seen with my own eyes that Professor Quirrell has been forced by Snape. He wants Quirrell to remove the magic that protects the Philosopher's Stone, because Professor Quirrell's Defense Against the Dark Arts stopped him"

"You don't know Severus. What he is best at is not potions, but dark magic. Speaking of which, he studied and practiced potions with your mother." Adair smiled contemptuously, "That strange man Luo, what the heck, he can't even block one of my blows, there's no way Severus can be stopped by his magic, Flitwick or Dumbledore are about the same, hehehe."

"B-but isn't Defense Against the Dark Arts supposed to restrain black magic?"

"Names don't mean everything. The strength and restraint of magic also depends on who uses it. Potter, you should pay more attention to your schoolwork instead of focusing on these gossips that you can't help, especially potions. Class, what Severus teaches is Lily's research results, as Lily's son, what kind of thing do you deserve?"

When Harry's potion was mentioned, Adair made the same disgusted expression as Snape, as if he saw something dirty.

"But Snape really threatened Professor Quirrell. I saw with my own eyes that he wanted to steal the Sorcerer's Stone. Wasn't it to help Voldemort?"

"They brought up the Philosopher's Stone in front of you"

"No, no, I pestered Professor Quirrell to ask." Harry lowered his head in embarrassment, but then raised it suddenly, as if he had gathered his courage. "This has something to do with me. If Voldemort comes back, I will be the first to be killed. Shouldn't I pay attention?"

""

Adair looked at Harry, and Harry stared at him without giving in.

They just stared at each other in silence, and finally Adair sighed and looked away first.

"Dumbledore is not very willing for me to tell you something. He thinks you are still young, but after listening to what you just said, I think you should know."

When he heard what he said, Harry thought he had won at that moment, but Adair's next words made him look ashen.

"Save you from making yourself stupid and hurting others, like your stupid father."

"You, you actually─"

"Okay, shut up and listen to me, Potter."

As soon as Adair stretched out his hand to grab it, Harry found that his voice had disappeared inexplicably. Even if he kept talking, he could not make any sound, and the blanket on his body tightly wrapped his hands and feet, preventing him from moving.

"Lily used her own life to cast a protective spell before she died. The child seems to have mentioned this to you. I'll reiterate it again. As long as this blood curse is still in your body, Voldemort can't touch your body. Plus, Deng The protection spell cast by Blido himself, it can be said that they have tried their best to save your life."

"If you still remember what I said using the child's body late that night when you sneaked out, then you will know that she could have survived, but she was willing to die for you. I say for the last time, Potter, you can't even let this child If you can't win, how can you fight with Voldemort? Lily sacrificed her life to protect you, what do you think of her sacrifice?"

Adair reached out and grabbed Harry's blanket and pulled it closer, forcing him to look up and look at her. He stared at him with an indifferent gaze.

"If you have time to focus on things that you can't help, why not practice more magic to improve your chances of survival? Only then will you live up to Lily's sacrifice. You really take it seriously when you call you the savior. What can a brat do? Do you think you are better than Dumbledore or me? It was Lily Evans, not you, who really defeated Voldemort."

"You know why the child and I hate you for messing around because we know that your arrogant courage will kill many people in the future - in the future, you will cause Granger to fall into the hands of Death Eaters, although she will protect her Very good, she was caught just because you shouted Voldemort's name irrationally and broke the protection spell."

"But, but you, Dumbledore and me"

Harry remembered what Elaine said on the train. He barely squeezed out a word or two, not daring to think about what would happen to Hermione if she fell into the hands of Death Eaters. This time, he was really scared.

"We have the power to resist him, how about you?" Adair snorted, "Without power, nothing can be done. Wizards and Muggles are different. The Muggle world has police and governments to maintain order, but in the wizarding world, most people They don’t even take the Ministry of Magic seriously, and the weak will not receive mercy when they die, only ridicule and humiliation.”

"If you want to live, practice your magic well and focus on getting stronger. Don't worry about other things. Only in this way can you take revenge personally. Otherwise, the title of savior will fall into the hands of Shafiq."
