The common room of Gryffindor House is a cosy oval room filled with soft armchairs, with two spiral staircases leading to the male and female dormitories, and the entrance is the famous portrait of the "Fat Lady".

And now, with a few newspapers scattered on several armchairs, and at the top of the staircase, several junior Gryffindor students were chattering—

"Hey, did you read today's new Daily Prophet?"

"Nope...... Shouldn't it be all cliché content, I stopped reading it for a long time. ”

"No, no, no, today a new column has suddenly opened in the Daily Prophet - introducing a large number of heroic wizards in the wizarding world in the process of fighting the mysterious people. ”

"Yes, this column sounds interesting!"

"Yes...... Today is the first installment of this section, which presents the life story of Professor Horace Slughorn. ”

"Professor Slughorn? Unbelievable, isn't he the head of Slytherin, and I didn't expect him to be one of the heroes against the Mysteries?"

"That's right, I suggest you take a good look at that interview, it's an interview with Slughorn done by the famous journalist Rita Skeeter, and my mother likes her ......"

"So what exactly does that interview describe?"

"It says that Professor Slughorn has been infiltrating the Death Eaters since sixteen years ago...... While secretly working for the Order of the Phoenix......"

“...... Wait a minute...... Order of the Phoenix...... What's that?"

"Oh, and this new section begins with a detailed introduction to the Order of the Phoenix, an organization created by our former Headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, to fight against the Mysteries and Death Eaters...... It is said that many famous wizards are members of the Order of the Phoenix, such as the brother of the current Minister of Magic, and several directors of our school......"

"Well, this is the first time I've heard of that name!"

"Professor Slughorn risked his life to deliver a message to the Order of the Phoenix from within the Death Eaters...... It is said that the decisive factor in defeating the Mystic again a month ago was that he found out the true plan of the Mystery......"

......

A few Gryffindor junior students were chatting enthusiastically while Harry Potter and Ron Weasley approached.

No doubt they were also discussing the contents of the Daily Prophet.

"I really didn't expect that the Daily Prophet would speak for us one day?" said Harry, somewhat sarcastically, apparently still resentful of the denigration of him and Dumbledore by the Daily Prophet over the past year or two.

"After all, the mystery man has fallen. Ron comforted on the side: "It's just that I didn't expect that the first interview was actually about Slughorn...... I didn't know until a few days ago that he was also a member of the Order of the Phoenix...... I thought it should start with the Mad-Eye or Remus......"

"Who knows?" Harry shrugged, "but the response seems to be good." ”

In Hermione's words...... The wizarding world is now in need of heroes. Ron nodded thoughtfully on the side: "I suspect the next few interviews will be even more exciting!"

After a pause, Ron spoke again, "By the way, Harry, Slughorn seems to have mentioned something about your mother in the interview......"

"My mother was one of his favorite students......" Harry replied succinctly, seemingly reluctant to dwell too much on the subject.

"Harry!" a scream came from the side, almost startling Harry.

It was Colin Creevey, a fifth-grader with a stack of books in his hand, who had just returned to the Gryffindor common room.

"Good afternoon, Colin......" Harry had to say hello.

"I heard...... Are you also a member of the Order of the Phoenix?" Colin fussed.

"Why...... Well, actually, I'm ...... But how do you know......" Harry said with a slight stammer.

"Listen to a portrait next to the principal's office...... It's great...... I didn't expect you to be one of those heroes who risked their lives against the mysterious people......" Colin said loudly as he looked at Harry with reverence.

And his voice is easy for others to hear.

The Gryffindor common room suddenly became quieter, and many of the students (including the junior ones who had been discussing at the staircase) looked at Harry in surprise.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Ron patted Harry gently...... The two of them returned to the boys' dormitory down the spiral staircase amid a group of adoring eyes.

......

Meanwhile, in the Headmaster's office, separated by a few corridors, Headmaster Jon Hart was clearly concerned about the issue.

"The response to that interview was pretty good, supposedly!" Jon said slowly, looking at the portraits next to him.

"Seems like yes......" Principal Chris Evans on the portrait nodded, "I just came from the Ministry of Magic and there was talk all over the place discussing that interview......"

"Seems like a good start!" Principal Dalyse Devonte on the other side also smiled and said, "Just now in St. Mungo, I also heard a lot of witches and wizards talking about it. ”

"But it's not all good news. Jon replied calmly, "I just received a letter from the editorial board of the Daily Prophet in the name of their editor-in-chief, Barnabas-Gufe—"

“...... Mr. Barnabas-Guffey said that some senior officials of the Department of Law Enforcement of the Ministry of Magic were quite dissatisfied with the content of the interview, and that the Daily Prophet in this report was a very clear implication that the Ministry of Magic was incompetent in the war against the mysterious people......"

"Isn't that true?" said a headmaster in the corner.

Immediately caused a burst of laughter-

"What then?" Principal Dalys-Devonte glanced at Jon with some concern, "Could it be that this column, after only one issue, will be forced to close under pressure from the Ministry of Magic?"

"Of course not. Jon shook his head, "Actually, I'm ready for the next interview...... I've reached out to Hesgar Jones, Stojee Podmore and Alastor Moody, among others, and they'll be interviewing Rita Skeeter in a few days......"

"Do you want to introduce them all at once this time?" asked Principal Chris Evans.

"Not really. Jon shook his head: "They were just recalling in the interview a member of the Order of the Phoenix who was tragically killed sixteen years ago - Mr. Edgar Bones. ”
