[HP] Aunt of the Savior

Although Harry was not very satisfied with the result of his sorting, and Professor Snape's reaction made him feel uneasy, but then Ron got his wish and was sorted into Gryffindor like Harry, and finally called Harry's I feel a little better.

"Well done, Ron!" The Weasley boys cheered for their little brother immediately after the results of Ron's sorting came out, and even Percy, who was always serious and steady, slapped a few more times.

"Ron, this is really great." When Ron slumped down next to him, Harry also said sincerely.Either way, it's always nice to be in the same house as your best friend.

"Yeah, that's great." Ron also showed an excited smile.

After Professor Dumbledore welcomed the new students with words like "stupid, sneeze, scum, twist" that Harry couldn't understand, the dinner party finally started.

Harry looked in amazement at the sudden appearance of all kinds of delicacies on the golden plate on the table. This phenomenon surprised him more than the food itself.He took a few of his favorite foods from the golden plate in front of him, and was satisfied to find that they tasted exactly the way he liked.

At the dinner, the ghost of Sir Nicholas - Nearly Headless Nick performed for the freshmen why he was called this nickname, which brought a lot of shock to the freshmen. A repertoire, the students in other grades all laughed.

Neville, who was closest to Sir Nicholas, was quite frightened, and his round face turned pale, but he soon paled and laughed with the other Gryffindor students.Harry looked at him with some admiration, and felt that if he changed himself, he might be so frightened that he would cry out, which would be too embarrassing.

Harry controlled himself not to pay attention to Professor Snape, but when Harry inadvertently looked at the teacher's seat, he found that Professor Snape was talking to a professor with a big scarf on his head. At the same time, Snape Professor Nepe looked over the professor's shoulder and onto Harry's face.

Just then, Harry suddenly felt the scar on his forehead prickling. "Ouch……"

"Harry, what's the matter?" Ron turned his head and asked concerned with his mouth stuffed.

Not wanting to look like he was emphasizing the scar on his forehead, Harry mumbled, "Nothing," he asked Percy, who was sitting on the other side. "Who is that man with the scarf around his head sitting next to Professor Snape?"

"You already know Professor Snape?" Percy showed a strange look of surprise, and he glanced at the teacher's table. "That's Professor Quirrell. He teaches Defense Against the Dark Arts. He is always nervous. It is said that Snape has always been jealous of his position. Snape is very good at the Dark Arts. They all say his black arts Defense against Magic is particularly boring and not very good, but I want to remind you that Professor Quirrell is famous for his talents, and this class is very important to you."

"Thank you." Harry replied quietly.He thought Percy's tone of voice about Professor Snape was odd.

"To good Percy, every subject counts," said Fred.

"But if you like to practice, don't get your hopes up for this class," George added.

Harry originally wanted to ask more about Professor Snape, but the topic at the dinner table had turned to their respective families at some point. Neville was touching the tip of his nose and said sullenly: "My parents are wizards. , they are Aurors, but I don't think I can be as powerful as them..."

"Auror? This is too exciting!" Ron immediately became excited.

The word Auror immediately grabbed everyone's attention, and Harry never had a chance to bring up the subject of the professor until dinner was over.

After Professor Dumbledore announced some routine precautions and specifically urged all students to stay away from the restricted area on the fourth floor, everyone sang the Hogwarts school song in different tunes in unison.This time, Harry looked openly at how every professor in the teacher's bench sang the school song—Professor Snape's lips were moving slightly and quickly, and Harry suspected that he just read the lyrics once.

After the school song was sung, the students returned to their dormitories according to different schools.Gryffindor's common room and dormitory are in a tower, and Harry shares a dormitory with Ron, Neville and two other boys, Seamus Finnigan and Dean Thomas.

"By the way, I think you're a lot like a friend of mine, Harry," said Ron, yawning in his canopied four-poster bed. "You guys look so much alike, I wish you could get to know James, I think you must hit it off very well..."

Harry was a little guilty. He still hadn't figured out how to explain this to Ron.But then he realized that, at least today, he didn't have to worry about that - Ron was asleep.He sighed, turned over and fell asleep.

Harry had a dream. In the dream, he saw Professor Snape and Aunt Jody standing far away from him. He wanted to rush to them, but Professor Quirrell's big scarf clung to him tightly. , so that he could not run over.He rushed too hard and fell directly to the ground. Malfoy was laughing and was dragged away by a big black dog. Then Ron appeared. He blushed with anger and kept asking him Harry was still James, Luna's white cat jumped on Ron's shoulder, and suddenly rushed towards Harry, its eyes turned red, its paws glowed green——

Harry woke up suddenly, covered in cold sweat.He turned over and fell asleep again in a daze.By the time he woke up the next day, he had pretty much put the nightmare behind him.

Before the start of school, Harry always thought that he only needed to study hard, but after he came to Hogwarts, he discovered that besides the course itself, there were many unexpected troubles!

For example, the ever-changing stairs and passages in Hogwarts always make people dizzy. In the first few days of Harry's first term, he would get lost every day when he went to the restaurant for dinner. Once he and Ron almost rushed to the fourth floor. They went to the restricted area of ​​the building, and were caught by the school administrator Filch. Fortunately, Professor Bubaji, who taught Muggle studies, helped them out and sent them to the door of the classroom where they were studying.

Also, no matter where he goes, he will be "visited" by people. Almost everyone has a particularly strong curiosity about Harry Potter. They always want to see what he looks like, some Gryffindor students would also ask Harry to show them his scars.After a few days, Harry was getting tired of it.But there are still many students who have not lost interest in Harry.

The lessons were not as easy as Harry had imagined.Harry thought he was prepared. He read a lot of books and previewed all the textbooks.But when he came to Hogwarts, he realized that he still had a lot to learn.Especially those courses that required wands, such as Transfiguration and Charms, Harry felt that even if he studied and prepared in advance, he was not much ahead of others.Hermione Granger's performance was particularly outstanding. In the Transfiguration class, only her match was closest to the needle. Harry could only make the match have an extra needle hole for threading.The dean of Gryffindor, Professor McGonagall, who is so strict, also smiled at Granger and added 10 points to Gryffindor.

And after taking the Defense Against the Dark Arts, Harry realized how unreliable Percy's words were - the twins had already been very polite to Professor Quirrell before.Professor Quirrell stammered, and his lectures seemed unbelievable. His classroom was still shrouded in a strong smell of garlic, which was said to prevent the invasion of vampires. Even the big scarf behind his head gave off a strange smell. taste.The twins speculated that it must also be stuffed with garlic, so that Professor Quirrell would not be afraid of vampires wherever he went.

On Friday morning, Harry and Ron finally made it to the dining room for the first time without getting lost.Harry was in a particularly good mood. Apart from the fact that he didn't get lost, what he was looking forward to most was today's Potions class.But when Ron heard what he said, he immediately showed the same expression as Percy before. "I hope you still think so after Potions class is over."

"Potions class is a nightmare!"

"Absolute nightmare!" the Weasley twins said in unison. "While we're not afraid of Potions, it seems to be very difficult for most of the students."

Neville tensed up. "oh……"

Harry really wanted to comfort him, but he couldn't say anything.In the end he had no choice but to say nothing, feeling a little nervous about the upcoming potions class - he suddenly remembered that this was the first time he had been taught by Professor Snape without Aunt Jody around.

Potions class is in the cellar, with Slytherin.When Harry saw Malfoy's gleaming golden head, he immediately made up his mind to do his best no matter what.

Professor Snape paused when he mentioned Harry, pronounced Harry's name in a sarcastic tone, and added a comment: "Harry Potter - famous, admirable... .”

Draco Malfoy and his two henchmen let out a low chuckle.Professor Snape, who seemed so stern, didn't care at all that they broke the silence in the classroom.

This abnormality made Harry feel extremely uncomfortable. Professor Snape said a long series of words, but he didn't listen to a word.He didn't respond until Professor Snape called his name.

"Potter, Potter!"

Ron kicked Harry under the table before Harry realized Professor Snape was calling him.

"Yes, Professor!"

"Ah, our energetic new celebrity seems to be quite different from the others in terms of reaction speed..." Snape's tone sounded malicious. "So Potter, what do you get with the daffodil root powder and the wormwood infusion?"

Granger immediately raised his hand.

Professor Snape's expression and eyes made Harry feel very strange.It took him a long time before he answered loudly, "Water of Life and Death."

Professor Snape asked two more quick questions before letting Harry go.Although Harry's answers were all correct, Professor Snape neither praised Harry nor gave Gryffindor points. "Why don't you write this down?"

Harry bit his lip stubbornly and sat down, feeling extremely uncomfortable.Ron comforted Harry in a low voice, "Don't be sad, I heard that Snape is very partial and unreasonable."

But this was obviously noticed by Snape, and he raised his eyebrows. "Talking in class, Gryffindor will deduct five points."

Ron was afraid to speak immediately, and could only comfort Harry with his eyes.Next, they started making a scabies potion following the steps Snape had written on the blackboard.

Snape walked up and down the classroom, his steps were so fast that his black robes seemed to be billowing like a cloak.The atmosphere in the classroom seemed tense, and only Draco Malfoy's method of cooking slugs was praised by Snape.

Probably because Professor Snape was so scary, Neville, who was already very nervous, burned Seamus Finnigan's cauldron into crooked pieces, and the potion splashed on the floor burned one by one on everyone's shoes. little polka dots.Another five points were deducted from Gryffindor for Harry not reminding Neville of his wrong operation in time.Harry was too upset to be angry.He originally wanted to make this simple potion perfectly - Potions class was one of the few courses he practiced before entering school - but the bad mood made this potion have obvious flaws.

"Potter, I think you probably need after-school tutoring to keep up with the progress of your classmates." When accepting the potion bottle handed in by Harry, Professor Snape showed a piercing smile. "So, this evening, in my office, Labor Services."

Harry finally understood why even Percy looked that way when he mentioned Professor Snape.

In the afternoon, Harry and Ron still couldn't get up when they went to Hagrid's cabin for tea.It wasn't until he saw the newspaper on Hagrid's desk that he diverted his attention a little.He didn't know that there were still people robbing Gringotts.

"Don't you know about it? Ah, yes, you live with Muggles." Ron seemed happy to say something Harry didn't know. "The goblins at Gringotts are very angry about this. They say that the vault was taken away before it was robbed. Who knows if it's true?"

But Harry noticed something else. "Hagrid, when you took me to Gringotts that day, it was vault 713 that was robbed!"

Hagrid faltered and refused to answer Harry's question, so after leaving Hagrid's cabin, Harry and Ron kept discussing the matter until it was time for Harry to go to Snape's office for labor services.

"Good luck, Harry," said Ron sincerely.

But this blessing from a good friend couldn't make Harry feel a little better.He even wanted to write a letter to Aunt Jody right away to ask if Professor Snape was as bad-hearted as the other Gryffindor students said, or because he was in Gryffindor and was giving birth to him. angry?
