Silhouettes of HP

West cut into blocks, while "shattered bones" is powdery, and the fragments produced by "shattered" will produce fragments of different sizes due to the different magic power of each person. , because it is difficult for the magic power of the caster to hit the object evenly, so the size of the fragments produced under normal circumstances is not the same, let alone all of the same shape.

Snape knelt down, picked up a fragment to examine, and then said to Harry, "This can only show that this wand can output your magic power evenly and exert the best effect."

Harry finally understood why that Ms. Malina was only willing to help people who had no evil intentions. Otherwise, if such a wand were put in Voldemort's hands, it would have killed countless people.

Having a wand that can be used outside of school means they can go to Gaunt's old house to find the resurrection stone ring.

Harry discussed it with Snape and summoned Lord Slytherin with the ring the next day.Salazar came quickly and appeared before them in a few minutes.

"To Little Hangleton?" he asked.

Harry nodded: "Is it convenient for you?"

Salazar smiled: "Of course." Although it is important to find Godric's soul, it is a long process, and it doesn't matter if you stop occasionally.Besides, it's not bad to go back to your own manor to have a look.

Harry had only seen Little Hangleton Village in Dumbledore's memory, and Snape didn't know the exact location, so Salazar still took them to Apparate.

This is about the kind of village you can find anywhere in England.A narrow country road bordered on either side by tall hedges of bushes with tangled leaves.A wooden signpost sticks out of the thorn bushes on the left side of the path. There are two arrows on it. One points to the way they came from: Great Hangleton Village, 5 miles; the other points to their destination: Little Hangleton Village, 1 mile .

It was still the scene Harry saw in Dumbledore's memory before.

"Compared to those big cities," Sara glanced at the surrounding scenery, and said to the two people beside her, "this place is much similar to before." So his apparition destination will be here, and the place in memory There will inevitably be deviations.

Harry and Snape agreed that there was indeed a great deal of rural authenticity here.

As the three walked, Harry told Salazar that he had bought a new wand.Salazar agrees with Snape on this point. The wand is an important tool for wizards, and it can even be said to be a part of the wizard's body. Naturally, having a good wand is more important than anything else.

The path turned to the left and descended steeply along the hillside, a valley suddenly appeared in front of them, just as Dumbledore remembered, there was the village of Little Hangleton.

A large house that looks very grand is clearly visible in this valley, which is very eye-catching.

"The Gaunt family has become like this now?" Salazar didn't know whether it was emotion or ridicule.

Harry slightly raised one corner of his lips, his mocking expression was much more obvious than that of his stepfather, very manly: "This is the Riddle House, the largest landowner family in the area, Voldemort's father was born here, and now here There seemed to be no one else but a housekeeper." So rumors abounded that the house was haunted.

"Muggle?" Although he had heard it before, Salazar couldn't help but confirm it once.

Snape's expression was a little unnatural. Voldemort's background has always been an unspeakable pain for these informed Death Eaters.Being fooled by a half-breed for many years, thinking that the other party has noble blood, so he voluntarily became his servant, thinking about it makes people feel sad.

Harry nodded: "Yeah."

Considering Snape's emotions, neither of them continued talking.

Gaunt's old house was located in a grove beside the hillside. The intertwined ancient trees made it cool even in midsummer. Harry saw the house looming among the trees at a glance.

The walls were covered with moss, and many tiles had fallen from the roof, showing here and there the rafters within.The nettles grew thickly all around the house, reaching up to the windows, which were very small and full of old grime.But compared to what he saw in the memory of Dumbledore in his previous life, this place is obviously more desolate, because last time at least there was smoke rising from the house to indicate that there were people living there, this time, there was no trace of people here.

The three walked through the bushes to the house, where a dead snake was still pinned.

Salazar frowned imperceptibly, and then read in snake language: [Open. 】

The old Gunter house, which has been silent for 70 years, has been opened again.

The author has something to say:

☆、Chapter 64

The room was very dark, and with the cover of the trees outside, they could barely distinguish what was in front of them. Salazar swung a powerful lighting spell, and the surroundings suddenly became much brighter. At least they could see the furnishings in the room clearly.

The Gaunts were an old family, formerly wealthy, and at the same time notoriously restless and violent, a character which became more pronounced from generation to generation because of their habit of consanguineous marriages.They are irrational and fond of pomp and pomp, so despite having a lot of property, they end up poor.

Therefore, the facilities in this house are very simple. There are only three very small rooms. The large room in the middle doubles as the kitchen and living room. In front of the staff of the Ministry, he is still extremely arrogant.

Salazar frowned, even if it was the Slytherin butler family, this would be too desolate, it would be a disgrace to the Slytherin family.

In the previous life, Harry and Snape only knew that Dumbledore found the Resurrection Stone Ring in Gaunt's old house, but neither of them knew where Dumbledore found it in the house.There were heavy traces of black magic in this room. Harry and Snape drew out their wands and looked forward vigilantly, in case there was a black magic trap waiting for them at any moment.

Harry took the time to say to Salazar: "We don't know where the ring is. I heard from Principal Dumbledore that there is a curse on the ring, and it will create illusions when held in your hand, which will lure you to wear it on your finger. Once Wear it, and the curse will spread, threatening life."

That curse is fatal, Dumbledore has powerful magic power, and with the help of Snape, he tried his best to seal the curse in Dumbledore's hand to prevent it from spreading, but even then Snape could only let him Lasts less than a year of life.

"Dark magic?" Salazar asked.

Harry looked at Snape, who knew the curse better than him, and Dumbledore didn't explain much to him, he only saw Dumbledore's scorched hands.

Snape nodded: "I don't know exactly what it is. It must be black magic. The Dark Lord has great attainments in black magic." Although he liked black magic in his previous life, he couldn't compare to Voldemort.

"Teach you a detection spell," Salazar took out his wand and recited the spell. Immediately, all the objects in the room that had been enchanted with black magic gave off a soft blue light. Then he withdrew the spell and said to Snape, "you try."

Snape waved his wand and followed Salazar's incantation just now, but there were not as many items that flashed blue light as there were under Salazar's incantation.

"Try again and focus," Salazar said.

Snape pulled himself together and did so, this time the situation was much better than before.

"Very good, remember to practice when you go back." Salazar withdrew Snape's spell and cast it again, and then motioned to Harry, "See which thing flashes the darkest blue light." The darker the color, the darker the cast. The magic is stronger.

All blues seemed alike as far as the eye could see, and Harry shook his head at Salazar.

"It seems to be hidden." Salazar waved another spell lightly, and at this time, a strong blue light flashed on the floor.

Harry imagined the scene where Voldemort was digging the floor, embarrassingly: "..."

Salazar taught Snape a new spell. This spell was more complicated than the previous one and required more mana, but it could detect dark magic items in the depths.

"Harry, you open the floor," Salazar said.

"Torn apart?"

Salazar nodded: "As long as you don't destroy the contents inside, you can do whatever you want, and pay attention to controlling the magic power." Compared with the process, the result is more important, whether it is "shattered" or "shattered", as long as the effect can be precisely controlled .

Harry took out his new wand and waved it across the floor with a soundless "split".Immediately, the floor cracked into countless pieces, and the other places were not damaged at all.

"That's right." Salazar took Harry's wand and looked at it, and then showed a slightly astonished expression, "Phoenix heartstrings?"

"Ah."

With Harry's confirmation, Salazar asked, "The wizard in Knockturn Alley did it?"

"Ah."

"Take me to meet her next time."

"You know she's a woman?"

Noticing that the other party used "she" instead of "he", Harry asked incredulously, and even Snape's expression was a little surprised. All along, that witch has been a legendary existence, and no one knows where she came from. Come, and why are you here.

Salazar explained: "This family of wands is all witches. They use expensive materials and fine workmanship, and the price is naturally high. They will have children with male wizards to reproduce offspring, but they will not have marriage contracts with male wizards. , if the child is a girl, they will keep it, if it is a boy, they will discard it directly, of course, if the father of the child is willing to take in, they will give the boy to them.”

This was the first time Harry and Snape had heard of such a family.

"They have their own place to live, and they are used to hiding their whereabouts and living an independent life. Only one or two of them contact other wizards every year and make wands for them to make a profit."

Harry: "..." There are very few wizards who can spend seven hundred Galleons to buy a magic wand. Besides, wands are not consumable items. It is unlikely that there will be a customer in a few years, right?It is a miracle that it has not been starved to death after operating in this way for so many years.

"I don't know much about them," Salazar motioned Harry to turn his eyes back to the floor. "Rowena had contact with them before."

The ring of the Gaunt family glowed a dazzling blue under Salazar's spell.

Salazar stopped Harry who was about to pass, turned to Snape and said, "Severus, if it were you, what would you do with this ring?"

Hearing this question, Snape's eyes darkened. He thought for a while and said, "Undo the curse?" He first undid the spell attached to the ring and then destroyed the Horcrux.

"Harry, what about you?"

"Let Hai Erbo bite it, or burn it with the devil's flame." The ring can't be touched, and it can be destroyed directly, so as not to lose his life like Dumbledore.

Salazar couldn't help smiling: "This is the Soul Resurrection Stone, one of the legendary Three Hallows of Death. If you destroy it like this, many people will hate you to death."

Harry stuck out his tongue embarrassingly.

Salazar said to Snape: "Your method is suitable for white wizards. Black magic can actually be simpler."

Snape looked at him puzzled.

Salazar put it another way: "If you put a drop of ink in a glass of water, what would you do?"

Harry's method was to pour the whole glass of water together, and Snape carefully got the ink out, which was too much trouble.Salazar smiled: "Just pour the whole bottle of ink into the cup." It is simple and thorough for a pure black wizard to wipe out the traces of the front with more powerful black magic.

Harry: "..." That's savage!

Snape looked at his teacher thoughtfully, "But isn't the curse on it even more powerful?"

"Destroy the original spell with black magic, not deepen it," Salazar said. "Look at me."

He took out his wand and began to chant a spell. Deep purple light overflowed from his wand. The curse attached to the soul-returning stone ring seemed to be alive, driving the entire ring to desperately try to break free from the purple light.He took a deep breath and increased the output of magic power. The purple light changed from dark to bright, tightly wrapping the ring.

A few seconds later, the soul-returning stone ring stopped moving.

"How did you deal with this Horcrux last time?" Salazar asked.

Harry recalled it carefully: "Principal Dumbledore destroyed it with the Gryffindor sword, and without destroying the Soul Stone." Later, the Soul Stone was left by Dumbledore without telling the Ministry of Magic. over him.

There is no Gryffindor sword at this moment, Salazar thought for a while, and summoned: [Helbo. 】

【Sara~~~】Hearing his voice, Hai Erbo crawled off Harry's wrist unsteadily and landed on the ground, his eyes were full of happiness.

Salazar pointed to the ring under the floor: [Go and kill the soul piece inside, and then bring the ring over, remember not to hurt the stone outside. 】

Harry: "..." Your Excellency Slytherin, you actually raise a dog, right?

The author has something to say:

☆、Chapter 65

Hai Erbo took a gulp, and the ring made an extremely miserable cry. Because Harry drank the soul purification potion brewed by Snape before, this time he didn't feel uncomfortable all over his body.

The screams gradually became smaller and finally disappeared. At this time, the house that had been silent for a long time seemed extremely quiet.

After finishing the Soul Piece, Salazar took the ring out of Helbo's mouth and asked Harry, "Do you want to keep it?"

Harry: "..." What's the situation with this tone?Who said before that this is one of the Three Hallows of Death is extremely valuable?

He shook his head: "No need." He really didn't like the things Voldemort used, even the stones that can bring people back to life.

Salazar looked at Snape mischievously: "Where's Severus?"

Snape also shook his head hastily, thinking that this thing had been loaded with the Dark Lord's soul piece, he didn't even want to touch it.

Salazar chuckled and put the ring in the interspatial bag: "I'll put it in the Hogwarts Chamber of Secrets later, and get it myself if I change my mind."

Harry and Snape: "..." They finally knew where the treasures in those secret rooms came from. Do you dare to believe that Lord Slytherin also has a hobby of magpies?

Leaving Gaunt's old house, Salazar planned to go to Slytherin Manor. Naturally, Harry and Snape would not object, so they followed him all the way.

Of course the butler lived not too far away from the master, so they came to an open space not far away. Salazar carefully cast a powerful Muggle-repelling spell around, and then took out his wand and began to cast spells on the open space .

Snape noticed that the spell this time was different from the one he used to open Potter Manor before, probably not the same kind of sealing spell, so the method of breaking the spell was also different.

"Wow!" Harry was shocked by the house that appeared following Salazar's spell. Unlike Potter Manor or Malfoy's house, it was a building that could only be seen in storybooks.

Gothic, a bit like Prince Manor, but much higher than it, looks more eerie, about thirty floors, each floor has countless windows from the outside, if we say that behind each window If they are all in one room, this place is really... too big.

Salazar probably really hid this manor very well, otherwise he had been silent for more than 1000 years and the place would have been taken away by the Ministry of Magic, and those greedy guys would not let go of any property.Harry couldn't help thinking.

A house-elf probably sensed that the manor was opened, and immediately apparated in front of them.Compared with Dobby, this little elf's clothes are obviously more in line with the aesthetics of normal people, with a clean and tidy dark green coat and a beautiful light-colored hat, which looks warm and comfortable.

【who are you? 】It said in snake language.

It has never seen the owner of this manor since it was born. It has heard from its ancestors that there have been many great wizards here, but unfortunately it has never seen it.

Harry: "..." Does it mean that if you don't know Parseltongue, you are not even qualified to be a house-elf in Slytherin Manor?He deduced the general direction of the conversation, and estimated that he would not be able to return to English for a while, so he obediently turned around and acted as an interpreter for Snape.

Salazar narrowed his eyes and looked at it: [Salazar Slytherin and his successors and students. 】

The house elf was dumbfounded, and hurriedly bowed: 【Welcome back, master. 】

The Patriarch who has not appeared for nearly a thousand years is back!

The house-elf immediately communicated the news by silent magic to all the magical beings on the manor.

A big snake jumped out of nowhere and suddenly appeared in front of their eyes. It had a dark green body and dark yellow eyes. It shouted excitedly: 【Sara! 】

Before Salazar could speak, Haibo jumped out of Harry's hand: 【Sylvia! 】

Harry: "..." This is actually a relative meeting, right?

Salazar didn't speak, let the two snakes connect, then turned around and led Harry and Snape into the manor.

Although there are many Slytherin manors, this is the most important one. Before Salazar, generations of patriarchs lived here.Since the accident of the Slytherin family, Salazar let the family members leave the manor and live in seclusion elsewhere, so no one has lived here for nearly a thousand years.

Sylvia is a snake demon and the manager of this manor. To some extent, she has more power than Gaunt butler, so the Gaunt family will put a nailed snake on their door later, probably because they are dissatisfied with the past Being pressed on the head by Sylvia.Salazar was the last patriarch. After Hogwarts was established, the Slytherin family was torn apart. This is why he spent ten years resolving family conflicts after leaving school. House Slytherin would never be as prosperous and united as it once was.Later, after he returned to Hogwarts and became a portrait, it was Sylvia who managed the manor.Haierbo and it have always had a good relationship, but Haierbo is a pet and has to follow Salazar at all times, so it won't be able to see Sylvia until Salazar comes back.Now, friends who have been away for nearly a thousand years meet again, and naturally there are many things to talk about.

Walking into the castle, they sat down in the living room, and the three of them chatted while drinking the fragrant black tea brought by the house elf. They ran around Gaunt's old house all morning. It is not easy to maintain vigilance at all times in the house.Salazar leaned back in his chair and relaxed slightly, beckoning to the house-elf to prepare lunch for three.

In all honesty, Salazar's elegance is deep in his bones, and even when he is resting on a chair, he shows a kind of noble casualness.

Harry looked at his stepfather with eyes of admiration, secretly wondering how long it would take him to cultivate to such a state that people could only look up to.

Sensing Harry's gaze, Salazar smiled and said, "What are you thinking?"

"No." Harry shook his head, his stepfather was definitely the idol of most students 1000 years ago, right?He couldn't help thinking, no wonder the portraits of Prince Manor and Potter Manor were so excited to see him.Of course, he couldn't ask for such words, "I'm wondering when the lunch will be delivered."

Salazar laughed: "Even if it's a house elf, it takes time to prepare lunch, so wait a little longer."

Before the words were finished, the house elf walked into the dining room with a plate.

Harry: "..." So he had no choice but to pretend to be extremely hungry and eat like crazy.

Snape was slowly slicing the steak, while scorning this shapeless little troll.

Harry was very wronged, this is the so-called eternal hatred after a mistake, right?He silently thought that it would be impossible for him to become like Salazar. This is a temperament that should be cultivated from birth, right?He looked at the old bat beside him in confusion, and then realized that Snape was also gracefully slicing the steak.

Hey... Harry was melancholy.

After lunch Salazar took Harry and Snape on a tour of Slytherin Manor.Sure enough, as Harry had guessed before, there were too many rooms here to count.He looked embarrassingly at the door to the left and the right, and couldn't help complaining about how good his memory would be if he lived in it so that he wouldn't get lost.

Salazar probably guessed what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "This used to be the residence of the patriarch, so there are more rooms to accommodate collateral relatives and guests. If you want to take a vacation, I will take you to live in another manor next time."

So, this is actually an office, right?The Slytherin family doesn't use one manor for meals, one manor for sleeping, and one manor for office, right?

The author has something to say:

☆、Chapter 66

The three of them stayed in Slytherin Manor for most of the day and planned to go back. Hearing the news, Haierpo reluctantly bid farewell to Sylvia.Harry couldn't bear to see it like this. After discussing with Salazar, he decided to let Haibo stay here until the start of school next month, and then go back to Hogwarts with him.

Hai Erbo happily swam away with Sylvia, leaving Snape with a heartache on his face.He originally wanted to do some experiments with the materials on Hai Erbo's body while he was not busy this month.Harry could tell what he was thinking by seeing his expression, and he suppressed a smile and promised Snape that he would hand over Haibo to him as soon as school started as soon as it was convenient for him.

Salazar didn't say anything when he heard this conversation. Anyway, Godric had been looking for potion ingredients on Herbo before, and he was used to it.After making sure that Harry and Snape had nothing else to do for the time being, he disapparated back to Hogwarts and started his journey to find his soul again.

For the rest of the summer vacation, Harry stayed in Spider's End all the time. Snape concentrated on studying his potions, practicing the black magic that Salazar taught him, and tutoring Harry in potions in his spare time. In Pu's words, if the Dark Lord used potions to attack the Savior, then the entire wizarding world would hate him, the Savior's potions professor.Harry was aggrieved and wanted to refute, but he automatically shut up when he saw the Slytherin students' Potions results.Needless to say how much water was in the O in his final exam, he never forgot his potions grades before the arrival of Professor Slughorn in his previous life.

Also taking advantage of the leisure time these days, Harry and Snape discussed the matter of Sirius.What Snape meant was that next semester he could ask students to brew a potion, which could become an anti-Animagus potion if certain daffodil roots and sapweed were added at the right time.

"So..." Harry seemed to understand a little bit, "You want my class to add something to Ron's cauldron and splash it on Wormtail?"

Snape nodded.

"But," Harry hesitated, "I want to have such a good mastery of potions..." Is there still a need to catch up on the knowledge of potions for a summer vacation here?

Harry did not dare to say the last half of the sentence, the exact time, the exact amount... Harry was very sad, he is a potion waste, a potion waste!

"So, Your Excellency the great savior, what do you think?" Snape asked condescendingly.

Harry looked hesitantly at Snape.

Snape: "..." You little bastard!

Complaining was nothing but complaints, and Snape didn't refute it. This was their best way. He knew in his heart that this little troll weighed a lot, and Harry's doing it really made people feel a little uneasy.

A few days before the start of school, Harry received the Hogwarts owl, which listed a list of new books for this school year.

Second grade students will read:

Standard Spells, Level [-], by Miranda Goshawk

Breaking with the Banshee, by Gilderoy Lockhart

Walking with Ghouls by Gilderoy Lockhart

Holidays with Hags, by Gilderoy Lockhart

Walking with Trolls, by Gilderoy Lockhart

Sailing With Vampires by Gilderoy Lockhart

Wandering with Werewolves by Gilderoy Lockhart

A Year with the Tibetan Yeti by Gilderoy Lockhart

Harry: "..." He almost forgot that he was going to meet this idiot this semester.

Seeing Harry's expression, Snape raised his eyebrows sarcastically: "I think, with the IQ of your lord the savior, you can't even avoid an idiot with no reputation but no strength, right?"

Harry: "..." So, if he doesn't dodge, does that mean he's not smart enough?

"Also, let me remind the great savior of one more thing," Snape showed his usual smirk, "your lovely little girlfriend will also be enrolled this year."

"Oh, Ginny!" Thanks to the letters from Snape and Hogwarts, Harry remembered all the scenes of the second year in his previous life, which was a really painful year, "and Colin!"

Snape was satisfied with his reaction, he nodded and said, "You can enjoy the halo of the savior in the next year, since all the admirers have enrolled."

Harry wants to cry, but he has Kelly Lestrange to deal with, okay?How busy the next semester will be!

Because he lived with Professor Snape during the summer vacation, the Hogwarts letter did not ask him to take the Hogwarts Express at Platform [-] and Three Quarters at King's Cross Station. Lane's Fireplace went directly to Hogwarts, and since Snape was going to Hogwarts for a teacher's meeting three days before school started, he naturally had to be there early.

I don't know if Dobby went to No. 4 Privet Drive to look for him this time, and if he didn't find anyone, would Platform [-] and Three Quarters be closed? I don't know who will be unlucky again.Harry thought without guilt, how unscrupulous he was in this life.

But anyway, even if he wanted to, he couldn't control it. After all, he couldn't let Lucius kill Dobby directly. Besides, the school wouldn't really let the child fail to go to school. Anyway, there was a way in the end, so why should he worry about it.

Thinking of how anxious he and Ron were at that time, Harry couldn't help complaining in his heart, it was so stupid.

The next day, Snape accompanied him to Diagon Alley to buy school and daily necessities for this school year.Said to accompany Harry, as soon as Snape entered Diagon Alley, he ran to Partridge's cauldron shop and began to pick out the cauldrons, but he didn't find the right posture to never leave.Harry sighed helplessly, and went alone to buy quills, parchment, and ink at the Changing Ink stationery store on the road.

After buying these things, Snape was already waiting for him at the door of the cauldron shop, holding a newly bought sterling silver cauldron in his hand.Harry really wanted to ask the professor, do you remember how many crucibles you have?You bought it for cooking, right?

Of course it was just thinking about it, if he really dared to ask, there was no guarantee that he was not the one stewing in the cauldron tonight.

Snape's appearance stunned a group of small animals who were shopping for school next term in Diagon Alley. The originally happy smiles all collapsed after seeing the most eerie potions professor.Snape was pleased to see the frightened look of these children, and their faces were even more sombre.

Harry rubbed his forehead, his lover's bad taste is really terrible.

This year, under the effect of Snape's nutritional potion, Harry grew a lot taller, so the two went to Madam Malkin's robe store to remake some sets of clothes for Harry.Seeing the tape measure sticking to Harry's body, Snape had the urge to hex it.Probably because his gaze was too cold, the tape measure also noticed it, so it swayed a few times and then reluctantly slipped down, aggrieved to report Harry's body size to Madam Malkin.

Although he didn't go to the tailor shop, Snape still insisted on using the best material from Madam Malkin's robe store to make clothes for Harry. After all, he was also a student of Slytherin, and children from pure-blood families accounted for a large proportion of Harry's clothes. In most colleges you are looked down upon if you dress poorly.Snape knew this when he was studying.

Looking at Harry's blue eyes and Slytherin-style robes, Snape immediately felt that it was much more pleasing to the eye. The only thing that was awkward was Harry's bird's nest hair, which is unique to the Potter family. Of course, this cannot be changed.

I don't know if Arthur went to search Malfoy Manor this time. After buying clothes, Harry looked at the junction of Knockturn Alley and Diagon Alley from a distance and suddenly remembered, are Lucius and Draco still alive? Selling stolen goods at Borgin-Bock?

Just as he was thinking, Snape dragged him into a shop on their right. Harry looked up, and the logo of this shop was particularly eye-catching: Lihen Bookstore.

A group of people gathered around the door of the store, and they seemed to want to go in. A large banner was pulled up upstairs:

Guidro Lockhart

autobiography for sale

"I Can Magic"

12:30-16:30 pm today

Oh no!Harry walked behind Snape with a dejected expression on his face.

The author has something to say:

☆、Chapter 67

People crowded forward, most of them were witches in their 40s, and it seemed that they all came for Lockhart's idiot.A weary-looking wizard stood at the door and said, "Ladies, be quiet...don't be crowded...watch out for the books..."

Probably because Snape's aura was too strong, everyone automatically stepped aside when they saw him, Harry followed behind him and finally managed to finish the books he needed for this school year as quickly as possible, and then he was ready to slip away .However, turning around inadvertently, he suddenly saw Molly Weasley standing there excitedly waiting for Lockhart's signing.

This was the first time in Harry's life that he had seen this plump, kind-hearted woman, and he couldn't help but want to laugh. As he walked away, he bumped into a girl with brown hair. "Oh, I'm sorry," she said.

"Hey, Hermione." Harry greeted warmly.

Hermione looked up and saw him, and smiled, "It's great to see you here," she looked up, "Hello, Professor Snape."

Snape nodded slightly. He had a good impression of this clever witch. Although she was born as a Muggle, she worked hard. She was much better than the two idiots Goyle and Crabbe who came from a pure-blood family. Getting too close to Harry pissed him off.

He frowned, and suddenly remembered that Draco in this life seemed to seldom be with his two followers, but preferred Zabini who came from a neutral family.

Hermione interrupted Harry's original plan to leave as soon as he finished buying the book. At this moment, Gilderoy Lockhart appeared.He sat behind a desk, surrounded by large photographs of himself, all faces winking at the crowd, teeth gleaming with dazzling whiteness.The real Lockhart wore robes the same blue as the forget-me-nots that matched his blue eyes, and a pointed wizard's hat was perverted playfully on one side of his curly hair.

A short, grumpy man held a large black camera and jumped back and forth to take pictures of him.Every time the flash flashed blindly, puffs of purple smoke would be ejected from the camera.

"Get out of the way," he called to those around him. "This is for the Daily Prophet."

"We actually met him in person!" cried Hermione excitedly. "I mean, he's written nearly all the books on this semester's list!"

You won't be so happy when you know who he is, Harry thought silently, and then you will regret today's excitement to death.

As he was speaking, Draco followed Lucius down the stairs, and his elegant footsteps caught their attention.

"Harry, are you here too?" Draco smiled politely, obviously Lucius was there, he didn't dare to show his emotions too much, just nodded slightly.

Harry nodded, "Hermione is here too."

Hermione and Draco exchanged glances, turning away awkwardly.Lucius was talking to Snape, not noticing the strangeness among the three children.

I don't know if it's because people are waiting for the signing that they are chatting, or if Lucius and Draco's platinum blonde hair is too obvious, anyway, Gilderoy Lockhart's eyes are signing a book The moment inadvertently floated to them.

"Isn't that Harry Potter?" He stared at Harry and stood up and shouted, then walked over and pulled Harry from the crowd to him, letting the person who was said to be from the "Daily Prophet" The photographer took a photo of them.

"Smiling beautifully
