[HP] Father?dad!

"God, how could he look so much like Professor Snape?!" It was an unbelievable voice,

"It's impossible, Professor Snape actually has a son?!" This was the voice that questioned the fact that a man with Professor Snape's character was actually wanted.

"Oh, no!" In the crowd, the voice of a pair of twins was the loudest. "Professor Snape has such a cute son!" A ginger-haired boy sang and sang well.

"Why doesn't anyone want me, George?!" Another teenager who looked exactly the same made an exaggerated gesture of holding his heart.

"This is really—" The two teenagers bumped their heads, "It's unreasonable!" Then, the two covered their faces and pretended to cry loudly at the same time.

There was chaos in the auditorium.Severus's head was bouncing, and the air pressure in his body was getting lower and lower.The teachers sitting around felt a gust of wind blowing and shook their bodies.

Just as Severus was about to explode, Dumbledore picked up the spoon and tapped the glass. "Quiet!" Dumbledore's voice was not loud, but the voice spread to everyone's ears.

Only then did the people below quiet down one after another.

On the other end, Neil looked at the farce below, his expression unchanged, and his attention was focused on the conversation with the Sorting Hat on his head.

"It can be seen that you love to read and are very smart. Ravenclaw is very suitable for you." The Sorting Hat made a 'tsk tsk' sound while commenting. "It's just that the reason why you like to study is not pure. You have great ambitions, and your bloodline meets the requirements, and Slytherin will welcome you... Where should I sort you?" The Sorting Hat The voice is thin.

"Slytherin, I'm going to Slytherin." Neil thought to himself, his face calm.

"You've decided? Then—" The Sorting Hat roared out the last four words, "Slytherin!"

Taking off the sorting hat, Neil walked towards the long table of Slytherin.Slytherin remembered the unanimous applause to welcome Neil.Neil walked to the long table, found an empty seat, and sat down.

After finishing, Neil subconsciously looked at the guest table.Severus was now watching Neil sitting at the Slytherin table.Seeing Neil looking over, Severus gave him an encouraging look.Regarding Neal being assigned to Slytherin, Severus said that he was not surprised and very satisfied with the result.He knew that such an excellent Neil could never be a reckless Gryffindor!

Seeing his father's implicitly encouraging eyes, although Neil didn't say anything, he felt warm in his heart.Softening his face, Neil began to look around further.Neil found that every college has a different attitude towards new students.Gryffindor was the most enthusiastic, Hufflepuff was the most sincere, Ravenclaw was the most indifferent, and Slytherin was the most reserved.

After a while, the sorting was over.Professor Flitwick left the Great Hall with the Sorting Hat and the corner stool.At this moment, Neil saw Harry and Hermione sneak in along the back of the auditorium with sharp eyes.

Seeing Harry and Hermione, Neil let go of his worries.At this moment, Dumbledore stood up.His attention returned to the teacher's seat——

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&Dividing line&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

After dinner, Neil followed the Slytherin army and left the auditorium.He had a serious face, still thinking about Dumbledore's words before the meal in his mind - Dementors will be stationed at all entrances to the school this year to capture the fugitive Black.Although Neil knew that the Ministry of Magic would attach great importance to Black's arrest only because of his viciousness, Neil was still very dissatisfied with the news that the dementors had entered Hogwarts.There are so many underage children in Hogwarts who are unable to protect themselves. Dementors are creatures that rely on instinct to survive. How can we ensure that dementors do not accidentally injure students when they enter the school?

However, it was not Neil's turn to worry about this, and he felt a little helpless about it. Little Neil had a vague thought in his heart - one day, he would have power, Make more reasonable policies for the operation of the wizarding world!

Following the large army, Neil walked deep into the cellar.The crowd stopped outside a wet stone wall.

"Password?"

"Blood," said the Slytherin prefect, and the stone door swung open.The Slytherins filed into the lounge.

The Slytherin lounge is long and narrow at the bottom of the lake.The ceiling and surrounding walls are strewn with rough, round stones.The lounge is filled with silver-green carved chairs, facing the stone door is a floor-to-ceiling glass, through which you can see the sparkling waves in the depths of the lake and the octopus swimming in the lake from time to time.

At this time, the students of other grades had dispersed in twos and threes, while the students of the first grade were still obediently standing in front of the prefect without receiving instructions.

The prefect standing in front said with a dignified face: "I am Derick Bulstrode, the male prefect of Slytherin, and this is the female prefect Audrey Foley next to me. Please remember, When you come to Slytherin, you must be proud of every move of Villerin! Slytherin will never allow anyone to break the glory of Slytherin!"

After Bulstrode's brief explanation, Foley took over, "Now, boys please follow Derrick and girls follow me. We will lead everyone to the dormitory. After a busy day, I hope everyone can sleep well , Tomorrow, I can welcome the new semester in good spirits." Different from Bulstrode's seriousness, Foley's voice sounded very gentle.

Following Bulstrode, Neil found his own bedroom.Pushing open the door, Neil walked in.

This is a very large room. Two iron-post beds are placed on both sides of the room, one on the left and one on the right. The beds are covered with silver-green mattresses.On the opposite side of the room are two wardrobes, one on the left and one on the right, with a floor-to-ceiling window in the middle, through which you can see the lake outside.There is a desk between the wardrobe and the bed, and a black wood-grained bookshelf next to the desk.On the side next to the door, there is a silver-green couch on the left and the right. The whole room is very spacious.

Neil is very satisfied with this room.Walking into the room, Neil found that Jedda's nest had been placed next to the bed on the left side, and Neil understood that the left side was his place.Going to the left, Neil sat on a chair by the desk, waiting for his roommate.

A boy with chestnut hair and brown eyes pushed open the door, and it happened to Neil unexpectedly that this boy was the boy who was on the same boat as him on the Black Lake.Slightly raised his eyebrows, Neil was a little surprised by this coincidence.

Entering the room, the boy found that there was already a person on the left or right in the room. "Hello." The boy's voice was quiet and a little shy, "I'm Dylan Parkinson, nice to meet you."

Neil stood up and nodded slightly. "Hello, I'm Neil Snape—"

☆、Potions class

After hearing Neil's introduction, Dylan's eyes flickered slightly.When he was at the dinner table just now, Dylan had already met the dean of Slytherin - Severus Snape.In his opinion, that is a very serious man, and it seems that he is not easy to get along with.Dylan was also very curious about whether there was any relationship between Neil and the dean.

"You can call me Dylan." Dylan had a gentle smile on his face, "Nice to meet you."

"You can also call me Neil." Since Dylan had already released his kindness, Neil would not refuse.Opening his mouth noncommittally, Neil gave Dylan the right to call him by his name.

After hesitating for a while, Dylan still couldn't resist his curiosity, and asked, "Your last name is the same as Professor Snape, I don't know—" Dylan chose a tactful way to speak.

"He is my father." Neil didn't want to tempt Dylan, and gave the answer simply.Neil wouldn't deny that Severus was his father.One is that this is a fact, and there is no need to deny it; the other is that he also wants to use Severus' influence so that he can live a better life in Slytherin.

This is the purpose of recognizing him, isn't it?Neil told himself so.

Dylan was not too surprised by Neil's answer. After all, Neil and Professor Snape look so similar, this is not a difficult guess. There is also no clear understanding.

After a tiring day and rain for so long, when he returned to the dormitory, Dylan was already very tired.Yawning lightly, Dylan said, "Which one of us will wash up first?"

"You go first." Neil said, "I still want to read for a while." As he spoke, Neil took out the books he read in the morning from his arms.Although the body is already very tired, Neil will not cancel his plan of reading before going to bed because of this.You know, compared to before, this level of fatigue is really common for Neil.

Dylan walked into the bathroom, and the whole room returned to silence.Spreading out the book and turning to the previous page, Neil was rarely able to concentrate... I don't know what happened to Brother Draco... Why didn't he come to the opening dinner...

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&Dividing line&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

late at night.

Draco lay quietly on his bed in his bedroom.After a day of recuperation, Draco has already recovered. He originally wanted to go back to school, but Narcissa firmly disagreed, and insisted that Draco stay at home for another two days of recuperation, and he would not go to school until he was fully recovered.Unable to resist Narcissa, Draco had no choice but to move back to the bedroom and continue to recuperate his body boringly.

Perhaps it was due to sleeping too much during the day, at this moment, it was a good time to fall asleep, but Draco couldn't fall asleep.Draco's mind was full of what he had seen and heard in the Muggle world yesterday.

He never knew what life in the Muggle world he despised was like that.This fact completely subverted his values ​​for so many years.Over the years, his father has always told him that Muggles are a dirty and vulgar race, while they are pure-blooded Slytherins, and those low-blooded Slytherins are like a speck of dust in their lives , don't worry about it at all.

But just yesterday, he was easily wounded by the creature he regarded as dust, so suddenly, thinking so quickly, but he didn't even have the strength to fight back.

Draco covered his face in pain, tears flowed down his fingers, and a deep sense of shame clenched his heart.He, a noble Malfoy, was wounded by a Muggle!

At this moment, Draco questioned Lucius' words for the first time.Are they really as noble and powerful as their father said?If it was true, then why did he suffer so much harm so easily?Is it because what my father said is wrong, or is it because I am too weak? !

For the first time, Draco began to reflect on himself.With this reflection, Draco's throat seemed to be squeezed tightly by a hand, his low sobbing stopped suddenly, and in the darkness, Draco's eyes widened in disbelief.He couldn't believe that in the past two years, he hadn't studied hard at all, and he had failed his father's expectations of him. Otherwise, before the start of school, he wouldn't have been humiliated by Neil's questions; he couldn't believe that in the past two years, He wasted a lot of time on pointless provocations with Potter, just for his own ridiculous self-esteem; he couldn't believe that for the past two years, relying on the favor of his parents and the power of his family, he had been posing with his classmates when he got along with him. With such a haughty face, he has few friends except Crabbe and Goyle!

At this moment, Draco was extremely depressed!Pulling back the family's cloak, Draco was horrified to find that he himself was useless!He wasted two years of good time that could have enriched himself, and spent all his time on having fun and fighting spirit!Before, he was secretly laughing at Neil as a nerd, but he didn't expect that he was the biggest fool!

First overturned by the status quo of the Muggle world, and then easily hurt by the Muggles he looked down upon. With the deepening of self-analysis, Draco fell into deep self-loathing...

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&Dividing line&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

Neil woke up early the next morning.

After washing up, it was still early, so he sat at the desk again and started his morning reading.

After another hour, Neil saw that the time was almost up, so he put down the book in his hand.Seeing that Dylan hadn't gotten up yet, Neil hesitated for a second and decided to wake him up so that he wouldn't miss breakfast.

"Dylan, wake up." Neil said flatly.

"Hmm..." Dylan whimpered from the bed on the right.After another 2 minutes, Dylan finally sat up from the bed.

"Morning, Neil." Dylan was still hazy at this moment, "What time is it?"

"It's almost seven o'clock." Squatting next to Jedah's nest, Neil took out the milk that Severus had prepared for him yesterday, and placed it in front of Jedah.Hearing Dylan's question, Neil answered simply, without any intention of turning around.

"It's so early!" Dylan groaned in pain, but Neil didn't respond, just teasing Jedda on his own.

Getting up painfully from the bed, Dylan went into the bathroom.After a while, Dylan came out refreshed after waking up.

"Neil, I was sorry just now." As soon as Dylan woke up, he realized that he had said the wrong thing just now.Although this time is earlier than the time when I get up at home, but according to the class time, it is just right to get up at this time. "I usually get up late at home, so I'm not used to it. Thank you for waking me up, otherwise I might have overslept." Walking in front of Neil, Dylan apologized a little awkwardly. "Shall we go have breakfast together?"

Neil stood up.Since Dylan didn't do it on purpose, he wouldn't bother with him either.After all, the two of them lived in the same dormitory, so it wouldn't help if they got stuck. "Let's go." As soon as the words fell, Neil walked towards the bedroom door.

Realizing that Neil didn't mind, Dylan happily followed.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&Dividing line&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

The diet at Hogwarts is very rich.But after tasting the food at Malfoy Manor, the food at Hogwarts will no longer make Neil, who is good at controlling his emotions, lose his composure like he did at Madam Pomfrey's house at the beginning.

Since the first session was Potions class, after breakfast, Neil and Dylan came to the Potions class room in the cellar early.

The Potions classroom was very cold, and the walls were surrounded by glass jars filled with animal standards.Behind the seat stood a large cabinet with the door closed.

It was still early at this time, and there were only two or three people sitting in the potions classroom.Neil led Dylan to the left side of the first row.

Seeing Neil's choice, Dylan made a bitter face.However, thinking of the relationship between Neil and Professor Snape, Dylan didn't say anything, just sat down with Neil resignedly.

As time went by, the number of people in the classroom gradually increased.In Potions class, Slytherin takes Gryffindor together.Neil noticed that all the Slytherin students sat on the left, and all the Gryffindor students sat on the right, with a clear distinction.

As the last Gryffindor entered the classroom, Professor Snape also followed his steps into the classroom.

Severus was the first to pick up the roster and began the roll call.When it came to Neil, Severus paused slightly.

"Neil Snape!" As Neil's name was pronounced, whispering voices came from all around. Obviously, last night, the seniors of Slytherin and Gryffindor all talked about Snape. Professor Pu's gossip told the first grade little carrot head.Severus glanced around ferociously, and the first graders shut their mouths in fright.

"Yes." Neil replied, indifferent to the eyes secretly looking at him from all around.Without pausing at all, Severus lowered his head and continued to roll the roll.

After the roll call, Severus looked up.At this moment, his eyes were empty and indifferent, not at all calm and gentle when he was with Neil. "You have come here to learn the delicate science and exacting craft of potion-making. Since there is no foolish wand waving here, many of you will not believe it is magic. I do not expect you to really grasp The beauty of the slow-simmering cauldron is emitting white smoke and bursts of fragrance. You will not really understand the magical power of the liquid flowing into people's blood vessels, which makes people's hearts sway and their wills blurred... I can teach you how Raise your reputation, brew your glory, even prevent death—but only if you're not one of the dumb fools I've come across so often."

After the brief opening remarks, the audience was silent, and everyone was deeply shocked by Severus.Neil straightened his back even more, his immature face was full of longing.

In the first class, Severus divided the two into groups and taught them how to make a scabies potion.Neil and Dylan were naturally grouped together.Neil was very excited that he could finally brew the potion by himself.At home, for a month, Severus only taught him theoretical knowledge, and his application to practice magic and potions was rejected several times.

After carefully preparing the ingredients with Dylan, the two began to cook.

Why didn't the color of the potion change to what my father explained?After completing the number of stirring circles as required, Neil was a little puzzled.Mingming's father said that stirring for 3 laps is enough, why did the color of the potion change more than half after 3 laps? Tilting his head, Neil handed the stirring rod to Dylan, and began to think about whether he had made any mistakes in the operation just now.

Severus on the side has been observing Neil's progress quietly.Every movement of Neil is very standard, and it can be seen that his comprehension is very strong.He can be sure that so far, Neil's steps have not gone wrong.However, his potion still didn't have the desired effect.Severus knew very well what the reason for this was.Neil's magic power is not enough, therefore, the magic power released by the normal stirring times is not enough to make the potion fully change.Seeing this scene actually happened, Severus felt a flash of pain in his heart——

This is his sin...

☆, frustrated

Finally, it was time for get out of class to end.Neil and Dylan's potion has also been bottled.

"Let me hand in the potion." Neil took the initiative, "You go first, don't wait for me, I still have to ask Professor Snape some questions." Because it was in class, Neil would not address Severus for father.He didn't want to blatantly show the special relationship between him and Severus, and more importantly, based on what he knew about Severus this month, if he called him his father in the course, he would definitely be dismissed Incomplete.

"Okay. Then I'll go to the restaurant first." Dylan nodded understandingly, without asking to wait for Neil.

After Dylan walked out of the classroom, Neil walked up to the podium with the potion he and Dylan made.At this moment, Neil was quite absent-minded.He was still thinking about the process of making the potion just now.Just now, he tried again, but it still couldn't achieve the desired effect. Later, he handed over the control to Dylan, and he just watched from the sidelines.He didn't understand why he and Dylan's operations were exactly the same, but Dylan was able to make the potion change as it should, but he couldn't?

Neil's eyes went blank, and he handed the potion to Severus.Severus took the potion bottle and observed the quality of the potion.In the end, he gave an 'E' grade.Although the potion was successfully made, because some steps were repeated twice, the magic power contained in it was a bit mixed, causing the color of the potion to be a bit cloudy.Glancing at Neil worriedly, Severus put down the potion bottle in his hand and began to grade the students who came later.

Neil didn't speak until everyone in the classroom had left.

"Father." After struggling for a while, Neil decided to ask Brother Draco first, "How is Brother Draco? Why didn't he come to school?"

Hearing Neal's question, Severus pouted impatiently. "He's basically recovered, just in case, Lucius asked him to rest for two more days." Severus had always been quite disgusted with Lucius' doting on Draco.However, Draco was not his child, and no matter how he was educated, he would not allow him to comment.

Hearing that Draco was fine, Neil let go of his worries.Biting his lips tightly, Neil mustered up his courage and asked the second question he was most concerned about: "Father, why did I strictly follow the steps in the potion operation, but I couldn't get the desired effect?"

Severus' eyes were empty, and he answered irrelevantly: "Did you drink the potion I brewed for you on time every day?"

Neil nodded in confusion. "Just finished the last bottle yesterday."

Severus took out a package from under the desk and handed it to Neil: "This is for next week." The corners of Severus' eyes were black and blue, obviously, he had been sleep deprived for a while status.

Noticing this, Neil was slightly worried.Taking the package, Neil held it in his arms.Suddenly, realizing the meaning behind Severus' words, Neil's face turned pale. "Father... Is there something wrong with my body?" Neil spoke with difficulty, his voice trembling slightly.He always thought that he took these medicines only because he was really malnourished before and he was injured again last month, so he needed to recuperate.But now, Severus' actions gave Neil a very bad guess.

"Father..." Neil's voice was pleading, "What is this medicine for?!" At the end of the sentence, Neil's voice was mixed with a hint of sharpness.

Severus looked blank, but there was a trace of sadness in his eyes.For Neil's intelligence and sensitivity, Severus didn't know whether to be proud or heartbroken.He knew that as long as he started using magic, Neil would soon discover that he was abnormal, but he never thought that it would be so fast.The class of using magic has not yet officially started. It is just a potion operation class, and there is no need to use the wand directly, and Neil has already realized that something is wrong with him.

"Your body does have some minor problems." In the end, Severus still chose not to tell Neal the truth. Regarding Black, Severus never intended to let Neal know. "It's just that you don't need to worry too much. If you keep taking the potion for half a year, your magic power will return to normal." After a month of sleepless nights, Severus has made some progress in improving the magic power supplement, at least, In terms of recovery time, the new version of the magic power supplement is already much faster.

Neil's complexion suddenly turned pale.Almost instantly, he understood what Severus meant.There's something wrong with his magic!Although he insisted on taking the medicine, his magic power would return to normal in half a year, but what should he do with his own courses in half a year? !Could it be that in the past half a year, there will be such an obvious difference in operation courses compared to others? !Neil closed his eyes in pain, desperately trying to stabilize his emotions.If so, how could I survive in Slytherin, who valued strength? !

Neil knew very clearly in his heart that since Severus, the master of potions, had already said so, it was absolutely impossible for him to recover faster. "Father, why is there a problem with my magic power?" Although he knew that it was impossible to get the answer, otherwise, his father would have told him just now, but Neil still did not give up and wanted to ask again.

The answer to Neil was silence.Although unwilling to tell Neal the truth, Severus was also unwilling to lie to him.Severus was at a loss for Neal's question.In a panic, he chose not to speak, and used silence to express that he was unwilling to answer this question.

Neil's heart sank to the bottom.He didn't understand why his father didn't want to answer such a question that was closely related to him, but he knew very well that it was useless for him to ask questions that his father didn't want to answer. "Father, I'm going to have lunch first..." After speaking respectfully, Neil turned around for the first time without waiting for Severus' answer, and left the Potions classroom with a little staggering footsteps.

Watching Neil's leaving back, Severus let out a weak sigh...

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&Dividing line&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

After a week, Neil has already fully felt the inconvenience brought by the magic problem to his practice class.In the Transfiguration class, I always have to wave my wand more times to make the matches barely turn into needles; in the Charms class, I also need to spend more energy to make the spells work...Herbology class and history of magic Fortunately, these two classes do not require wand manipulation, so the impact is not great.What made Neil most depressed was the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. For some reason, it was extremely difficult to cast the spell on Defense Against the Dark Arts by himself. In the first class, the whole class met the requirements, only himself and Gran A silly-looking girl in Fendor has never been able to successfully cast the spell.

Neil could clearly feel that after a week, Slytherin's attitude towards him changed from curiosity, enthusiasm and even flattery at the beginning to indifference, ridicule and even turning a blind eye later.Come to think of it, if he wasn't Professor Snape's son, he might have been bullied by now.Neil doesn't blame other people, Slytherin is like this, the strong are respected, here, the weak can only be bullied and cannot get fair treatment.However, Neil was not discouraged, he is studying harder now.Every morning, he would find time to secretly practice magic beside the Forbidden Forest.He firmly believes that this situation is only temporary, after waiting for his magic power to fully recover, training his magic power during this period will definitely become his precious wealth!

The only thing that touched Neil was that Dylan didn't change his attitude towards himself because of this.This made Neil feel a little relieved.However, he didn't say anything more about it.Now he can't take care of himself.It not only takes more time than others to review homework, but also takes time to go to the library to find information about why your magic power is wrong.Neil just couldn't find the time to respond to a little kindness from someone he'd only known for a week.His contact with Dylan was also limited to classes and evenings in the dormitory.As he became familiar with the school, Neil's whereabouts after class gradually became unpredictable.

&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&Dividing line&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&

On this day, Neil received a letter from Harry, inviting him to drink tea by the Black Lake in the afternoon.Originally, Neil wanted to go to the library to look up information when he was not in class, but in the end, Neil chose to accept Harry's invitation.I haven't seen Harry for a week, and Neil also wants to ask how Harry is doing.

Walking through the corridor, avoiding the crowds of people, Neil walked to the gate of the castle.Suddenly, seeing the two second-year Slytherins in front of him, Neil subconsciously slowed down.

"Tell me, is that Neil Snape the dean's son?" The words in front of him came into Neil's ears indistinctly.

"Of course. The dean has already admitted this in front of the prefect." The other person is obviously much more informed, "Otherwise, why do you think he can still live so leisurely now? If he is not the dean's Son, the others have long since gone back to trouble him as a drag on the house. For so many years, Slytherin has never had a student who is not as good as Hufflepuff. Not even Senior Malfoy's Minions, Crabbe and Goyle didn't do as badly on the course as he did..."

"Yes, yes." The other person nodded repeatedly, and echoed, "He is still the headmaster's son, what a disgrace to the headmaster and Slytherin..." As the distance grew wider and wider, the distance between the two people in front The voice became more and more blurred, and finally disappeared into the air.

Neil stood in the shadows, his head bowed, his eyes were cold.

☆, party

Arriving at the edge of the Black Lake, Neil had already returned to his expressionless state, as if he hadn't heard what he said just now, only his slightly condensed eyes revealed the fluctuation of his thoughts.

Autumn is high and the sun is cool, the sun hangs high in the sky, exuding a strong heat.Harry was sitting under a tree, the thick branches blocked most of the sun, and the sun was shining on the ground in shadows.

"Neil, this way!" Harry saw Neil from a distance, and waved happily.Neil walked over to Harry and sat down.

"Are you alone?" Neil was a little puzzled, he thought Hermione and Ron were there.

Harry smiled, poured a glass of pumpkin juice and handed it to Neil.At lunchtime, Harry put a large basket of food on the table for an afternoon picnic. "Me, Ron, and Hermione said to give us two a chance to get together alone and catch up, so Hermione went to the library, and Ron went to play wizard chess with others." Panier thought, Harry added, "But they both said that if there is an event next time, they are not allowed to leave them alone and act alone." While talking, Harry put the food on the tablecloth.

Neil nodded noncommittally.In his opinion, Hermione and Ron were not very familiar with him, and he was willing to contact them only for Harry's sake, and he would not feel anything about their absence.

Harry picked up a marmalade pudding and handed it to Neil. "Try this, I think it tastes really good." Saying this, Harry picked up one himself. "During the gatherings before, I always thought that if one day, we could have afternoon tea together while gathering. Today, this wish has finally come true." Harry had a deep smile on his face. Yi, while talking, picked up a finger biscuit and took a bite.

After receiving the pudding, Neil's expression softened as he listened to Harry's words.He took a spoonful of pudding and put it into his mouth. The sweet taste of pudding was mixed with the coolness of jam. Neil narrowed his eyes happily.With the fresh air and delicious food, Neil's expression became soothed and relaxed.

"It tastes good." After eating half a cup of pudding, Neil nodded in satisfaction.Because Madam Pomfrey told him that his stomach is not good, Neil usually pays great attention to restraint when eating, and usually only eats half full, so as not to overwhelm his stomach.

"By the way, you don't know, this semester we have a few new elective courses in our grade." Harry began to chatter about his experience of the week, "I chose two courses, one is divination, and the other is protection of magical creatures. class. Let me tell you, when you are in the third grade, you must not choose divination class. Professor Trelawney who teaches divination class is an old liar who can only make up stories. Not her. Besides, he predicted in the first class that there was some bad omen for me, that I would die unexpectedly this year—” Harry was very angry when he mentioned Professor Trelawney.

Neil frowned. "Bad omen?"

"It's some kind of ominous black dog." Harry took a hard bite of the finger cake, and Harry let out a 'click, click, click' sound as if venting his anger. "He said that seeing a big black dog is an omen of death, and it means something unknown." Having said this, Harry drooped his head in frustration, "Neil, I really seemed to see a big black dog during my summer vacation. Black dog. However, I told Ron and Hermione that Ron was terribly frightened, and Hermione didn't take it seriously, what can I say?
