[HP] Illusion

Harry Futures has been thinking about whether to tell Snape that he is going to Hogwarts soon, but after all, everything has not been settled. If he said it now, something changed in the end. Is little Snape having fun?

After all, Harry was still afraid of trouble.Afterwards, he will enter Hogwarts under the name of Edward Prince, with a different face and name, so he will have to explain it to Snape.

After much deliberation, Harry still had to take this matter slowly, it's not that he didn't say it, but he couldn't say it now.

Little Snape's owl came for three days in a row. Although the boy didn't appear very impatient, but I don't know if it was because he didn't even reply to little Snape's letter when he was the busiest a few days ago. Tian directly changed Lily's owl to ensure that the person could be found. When Harry came back from work, he had already saved several letters from little Snape and hadn't read them.

Just looking at the words on the envelope, Harry planned this way. He went to Hogwarts to find Dumbledore that day, and he lived in Hogsmeade for a day that day, and then found time to sneak into Hogwarts.

He hadn't made an appointment with Dumbledore either, Harry was planning to go when their classes were in session so there was less chance of running into anyone else.

The weather was not good that day. It was raining outside when Harry went out in the afternoon. The sky was dark, densely covered with dark clouds, and the waves were treacherous. The thick clouds lingered for a long time. The pillars and the howling wind seem to want to bring a stormy baptism carnival to the coming summer.The young man wore a raincoat and cloak. Although he was waterproof and moisture-proof, he even had the windproof measures in place, but when he arrived in Hogsmeade, he still couldn't bear it. He even suspected that if he didn't take the windproof measures, he would be in danger in the next second. Blown away by the wind, the sky looked pretty dire.

Harry didn't expect the rain to suddenly become so terrible that day. When he was stranded on the three broomsticks, he wanted to owl Dumbledore and say that he would wait for the rain to stop before going, but in this weather, probably even an owl would Being blown away and unwilling to deliver the letter, it just fell through.

He waited for almost an hour, but the rain still hadn't stopped. It was almost five o'clock at this time, and the Hogwarts students had already finished their classes. After thinking about it after drinking the third hot butter beer, it was still in time for dinner Went to Hogwarts before.

But what Harry didn't expect was that Hogwarts was still having a Quidditch match under such windy and rainy conditions with severely blurred vision.

The young man who had previously been allowed to enter the school entered the school smoothly. When he headed towards the castle alone, the young man was attracted by the bursts of cheers from the Quidditch field, mixed with the sound of heavy rain. The sonorous belt sense.He leaned closer on purpose. Looking at it from this angle, he could see the not too eye-catching scarlet, which was the color of Gryffindor.

Gryffindor, Harry turned the corner and headed for the Quidditch pitch.As for applying for a job, let him go with the wind, anyway, he just has a look, and there is no other meaning.

Unexpectedly, when he got closer, he discovered that the player in the same match was Slytherin wearing a silver-green uniform. The door he entered was closer to the stand where the Slytherin people were. Harry took his cloak It was changed to a silver-green color, and it blended carelessly into the pile of Slytherin students.

In fact, at their age, very few people can resist the charm of Quidditch. Even in such a bad weather, they can't see clearly, even the always reserved Slytherin is roaring passionately , Roaring, there are a lot of fanatics, so they don't care who the person next to them is, they only care about whether the players from their own academy on the field can win this game for themselves.

Harry has also experienced Quidditch matches in such stormy weather. He even lost his first broom in such weather.I don't know if it's because I'm getting older. Although I thought it was fun to play at that time, but now I feel that I shouldn't continue to play under such circumstances.But Harry could still vaguely see that the professors from all the colleges had come, probably to make preparations for the safety of the students.

Of course, this kind of weather makes it more difficult to find the ball, and it is extremely difficult to control his own balance. The young man has never seen his father's Quidditch. He squinted his eyes and searched carefully. Finally, at an angle close to the clouds, I saw James hovering high in the sky.

Because it was too far away, Harry really couldn't see other people clearly, so he found his father and his godfather only by his characteristics.

At this moment, Sirius was using the stick in his hand to ruthlessly move a Bludger towards one of the Slytherins. His movements were ruthless and fast, but unfortunately, due to the strong wind, the two The distance between the people got longer, and finally the Bludger was blown away by an arc, and the other party just flashed past, and there was a sigh of regret from Gryffindor.

Then Slytherin had to fight back. After they finally got the Bludger, they immediately fired at Sirius just now, but this person obviously did not have the skills and strength of Sirius. Halfway through the ball, he fired at another He walked in the direction, but he didn't know whether it was a coincidence or on purpose, the ball actually fell into the arms of another Slytherin player.

Harry found that the Quidditch match at this time was much rougher than theirs at that time. Sirius wanted to grab the Bludger after seeing the direction of the Bludger, but he didn't expect to be taken advantage of by the Slytherin , but he didn't intend to just let the other party go, but just ran straight at the other party. The man dodged, but he was still swept by the tail of Sirius' broom.

At this moment, a gust of wind blew suddenly, the man was hit by double force, he swayed several times and couldn't sit still, the Bludger just dropped out of his hand, of course Sirius couldn't control it so much, he just drove the broom Going to grab it, but unexpectedly, the person directly above him dropped his hand directly, and the whole person fell straight towards the ground, just hitting the broom of Sirius below him, because Sirius was going to pick him up. He had left the broom with both hands when he walked the ball, and it was too late for him to save himself. Before he realized what happened, he was rubbed by a heavy object and was knocked unconscious. The two of them fell vertically towards the ground together.

There was a burst of screams in the stadium, Harry took out his wand reflexively, and quickly cast a Levitation Charm on the two people who collided heavily, but when he issued it, he also clearly sensed By the time there were several other spells cast on the two people besides the accident.

And when everyone's eyes were on Sirius and the other person, James, who had been flying towards the two of them, suddenly swooped down. When he was close to the ground, he rolled quickly, and then landed on the ground. After rolling up and down several times, it stopped.

Almost no one saw this scene. James got off the ground and hurriedly ran towards Sirius who landed safely. He was the first to arrive. He quickly kicked away the trembling, pale face, but Slytherin, still awake, then checked on Sirius' condition.

Mrs. Hodge and several professors in the stands rushed over. Mrs. Hodge blew the whistle to announce the game, but at this moment, James reached out to stop her, and then opened his palm towards her, a golden The snitch lay in his palm impressively and obediently.

Immediately afterwards, the three whistles for the end of the game sounded in Hogwarts grounds. Before everyone realized what happened, Mrs. Hodge hurriedly raised James' hand to indicate the final winner of the game.

"Ah—" the deafening scream resounded through the entire Quidditch pitch.

There were waves of cheers on the court, but I don't know if it was his hallucination, Harry also heard some female voices worried about Sirius' injury.Soon, Harry was so shocked that his eardrums were almost pierced, but it wasn't because of the Gryffindor on the opposite side, but the indignant roar of the Slytherins. The young man was dizzy from the noise, and he immediately blocked the surrounding people. The voice quickly slipped out of the excited crowd.

All kinds of noises on the court have nothing to do with him. Although Harry really wanted to see the situation of his godfather, of course he couldn't do that. After thinking about it, he still didn't stop. At that time, there was absolutely no serious impact, and it seemed that there was no trauma, so there should be no major problems.

Harry actually saw Dumbledore too, and the old man was standing at the scene of the accident and directing.

Since Dumbledore was still here, he didn't have to rush towards the castle. Harry stayed in a less crowded area and waited to see the final result.I don't know if it was Harry's illusion, but he always felt that the old man was looking in his direction intentionally or unconsciously.

He could feel several wands holding the two of them to the ground just now. Harry couldn't be sure who was protecting the two young men, but if Dumbledore was present, maybe the old man would know that he just appeared. hands.

As he was thinking about it, he saw that Sirius seemed to wake up by himself, but Dumbledore still conjured up a stretcher, put Sirius on it, and looked from a distance, Harry still saw Sirius clearly. He stared, as if he still didn't understand what happened.

Professor Flitwick and Professor McGonagall floated Sirius and another injured person towards the exit, Harry stayed where he was, but soon he found that such a choice was actually a bit inappropriate, because Dumbledore was walking towards him step by step.

In fact, when Dumbledore was heading towards Slytherin, Harry already felt that something was wrong, but he thought about it, the headmaster didn't mind being exposed, he always wanted to appear in front of everyone Now, it's okay to be familiar, and he did nothing wrong, so Harry didn't move in the end, just waiting for Dumbledore to come to him.

Probably it was his illusion. During this period, the young man always felt that there was a hot gaze gathered on his body, tight, as if he wanted to burn him through a big hole, but when he looked in that direction, he couldn't see it. He found that none of the people looking at him was the owner of this gaze.

Dumbledore first extended his hand and shook Harry's, "I really should thank you just now, Mr. Prince."

"It's nothing, it's just a matter of raising your hands." In fact, his reaction was the fastest among all of them, probably because everyone failed to react. "Sorry, it's raining too much, so I'm only here now."

"It's okay," the old man smiled, "let's go to my office and talk about it."

Harry felt that many people's eyes were completely on him, but this time, he could not feel the strange eyes.

Harry was not stage-frightened, so he followed Dumbledore towards the castle calmly. In fact, many people had already left one after another at this time, but there must be many people who saw this scene.

Harry followed Dumbledore to take a shortcut, he had never reached the headmaster's office by this route, he dried himself quickly, and sat down refreshed.

"First of all, I have to say sorry," Dumbledore said, "I didn't expect the weather to be like this today. If I had known earlier, I would have delayed your arrival by a day."

"It's okay, I'm just a little wet." Harry didn't care about these little things. Compared with his dryness, the students were obviously drowned. "But I still have to suggest that you ask the kitchen to prepare some cold food for the students."

Dumbledore smiled, "It seems that I can't do without inviting you. You haven't even become an employee here, and you are already so considerate of the students, let alone you helped me save two students just now."

Harry grinned, "It's nothing, just don't blame me for sneaking into the Quidditch pitch. I heard the sound from the other end, and found that there were still people playing at this time, by the way, the one who won the game The Seeker is very good, I saw him catch the Golden Snitch cleanly in the end, it was really good..."

"Oh, do you like Quidditch too?"

Harry said very subtly: "I don't play very well."

"After that, I can compete with the students. Maybe James," he paused, "oh, the Gryffindor Seeker who won the game would be willing to compete with you."

"There is a chance." Harry smiled. In fact, he also wanted to compete with his father. They said that his flying talent was inherited from his father. He really wanted to compete with him. See if you can get out of blue by yourself.

"So, are you sure you want to hire me?" Harry asked.

Dumbledore rummaged through the drawer, took out a document, he quickly signed it, and then pushed it to Harry, "This is your contract, you should take a look at it first, if there is no problem, you can Just sign your name below, then in July of this year, after the school year officially ends, you will officially become the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts for the next year."

In fact, Harry had studied this contract carefully a long time ago. He just took a quick glance and was able to confirm that the one he signed later was exactly the same as the one he signed 30 or 40 years ago—— Even the job titles - only the initial names are inconsistent.

"Can I take it home and study it?" Harry asked with a smile, closing the file.

Dumbledore seemed to have encountered such a thing for the first time, and the person who was going to apply for the job before was a young man. Unexpectedly, the young man did not directly agree at this time, but still needed to think about it.

"I can give you a copy." Dumbledore took out another document, but did not sign it, "If you finish your research, you can come back and sign the original copy at any time, is that okay?"

"Of course." Harry handed the document to Dumbledore, and then put the document that the old man handed him into the space pocket.

"I hope we can work together well next year." Dumbledore stood up and extended his hand to Harry. Harry also stood up quickly and shook the old man's skinny hand.

"If there is no problem, I will go first."

"Go slowly," Dumbledore sent him to the door, "waiting for your good news, I will be waiting at Hogwarts anytime."

The old man wasn't too enthusiastic, but he looked friendly and seemed satisfied with his performance.

Harry guessed it was because his reaction just now gave the old man another point.

In fact, it was still raining outside, but the rain gradually subsided, and I would definitely not get any rain if I left now.

Of course, Harry couldn't stay in the castle under the eyes of the old man, so he still planned to head towards Hogsmeade according to the original plan, so that he could sneak over from Hogsmeade tomorrow without letting the little one Snape found out where he was.

Because he didn't want to run into other people, he found a path that relatively few people would pass by. Even if the portraits on the wall whispered to him, it couldn't have much influence on him.At this time, it was actually meal time at Hogwarts. Most of the students had already gone to the auditorium to eat, and only a small number of people were still wandering outside. When Harry saw someone, he would stop and find a hidden corner Wait for others to pass.

But people are not as good as heaven, and some people still can't avoid them. Just when he was about to reach a staircase, two people walked towards him.

One of them was actually little Snape who hadn't seen him for more than a month. Both of them were wearing Slytherin clothes. Their bodies were all wet, and it seemed that they hadn't had time to go back to the dormitory to change their clothes.

Harry's figure obviously paused, maybe it was because he sensed his strange movements, the boy glanced at Harry, and suddenly walked towards him excitedly.

Harry was taken aback. Little Snape didn't walk towards Harry at first, but seeing his companion so excited, he also moved a few steps in Harry's direction.

"It was you just now, right?" The man strode up to Harry. If it weren't for the fact that the man was wearing a Slytherin uniform, Harry almost thought that this man was a Gryffindor.

Harry looked at him playfully.

"You are the one who saved Iverson and Black with the floating spell!" the man said excitedly

Inexplicably, Harry felt that the name Iverson sounded familiar.

"I didn't do it," Harry denied, lowering his voice.

"You don't have to deny it," the man didn't believe what Harry said at all, "I was three figures behind you at the time, and I saw it all. After you shot, the speed of Iverson and Black was completely Slow down."

Slytherin bowed solemnly to Harry, "Although I don't know who you are, thank you for saving Iverson."

From the corner of his eye, Harry saw little Snape walking towards him bit by bit. Harry subconsciously took half a step back, putting away the distance from this Slytherin.

This kind of movement actually made Snape's movements quicker.

"That's me and his roommate," the man pointed to the little Snape standing half a step behind him, "If it wasn't for you, Iverson would definitely be injured."

Harry finally remembered why Iverson's name was so familiar. Obviously, it was because Snape had told him that Iverson was his roommate. He didn't expect that Iverson would be rescued by such a coincidence... Really " good luck".But it could also explain why the two boys were still wearing wet clothes.

Harry suddenly took out his wand and pointed it at the two wet boys. The Slytherins were startled by his action, but because they didn't have time to react, they could only be cursed by him.Soon, though, they had to thank Harry for letting their clothes dry with a little hand.

The young man didn't dare to look at little Snape, he only looked at his roommate, so he didn't see the way Snape half-squinted looking at him.

"Be careful of catching a cold, go back and change quickly." Harry waved his hand.

The man took Snape and thanked Harry again, then hurriedly left with Snape.

Harry looked at the backs of the two of them, and walked towards a more hidden path.

In order to avoid being found out, he felt that he should not go to see Snape for now, and go home today for a few days or something.

When he returned to Cokeworth at night, the rain had completely stopped, and the coolness after the rain made the whole town feel refreshed. The dark clouds in the sky cleared, and the stars were dotted, like after being washed by water. The sky is exceptionally clear, which makes people feel good.

However, because of the baptism of the heavy rain, the flowers and plants in the garden were completely wilted, and they seemed to have no vitality at all. Harry looked at it, and finally couldn't help but healed them with magic. The roses on the flowerbed quickly recovered. When it bloomed, Harry didn't even think about it. If anyone saw it, they would probably be shocked.

When the yard is very busy.Harry suddenly saw an owl flying in the distance. Harry didn't need to take down the letter, but he knew that the letter must be from little Snape, because he had seen this owl before.

Such a coincidence?Hasn't he already been discovered?
