Chapter 336: A New Journey (Part 2)

Ten minutes later, Jon Hart, with a solemn face, came out of Slughorn Castle.

"How's it going?" said Diana Greengrass, anxiously outside, watching Jon's body grow larger again.

Jon nodded at her, then glanced at the door.

Mrs. Greengrass understood what Jon meant, and hurriedly shouted, "Let's take our leave, Professor Slughorn." ”

Without waiting for Slughorn to reply, or for him to emerge from the castle, Mrs. Greengrass hurried out of the Muggle home with Jon.

Outside the residence, Phoenix Fawkes was leisurely wandering through the garden, looking for something to eat...... When Jon and Mrs. Greengrass came out of the house, she flapped her wings and flew over.

"Must it all be done?" asked Mrs. Greengrass again.

"That's right!" Jon nodded weakly, sleepily.

Then he only felt that his eyes were dark, and the whole person collapsed to the ground.

......

Jon had spent the past twenty-four hours in the potions lab at Slughorn Castle, concocting elixirs with the stocky old man.

Combined with most of the previous day, it can be said that Jon has not closed his eyes for more than thirty hours......

In front of Slughorn, he had to be mentally strong, and memorize every step, even a word, he said about the Horcrux.

And after being separated from Slughorn, he only felt his body relax, and then he completely lost consciousness.

I don't know how long it has been-

Jon opened his eyes with some reluctance...... All he could feel was a pink patch in front of him, a soft cot beneath him, and a faint fragrance could be smelled in the air.

"It should be a safe place!" Jon thought to himself, closing his eyes again, thinking back to what had happened.

According to his last plan, he was not sure that he would win the Potions game.

After all, Horace-Slughorn is a very good Potions master in all of England, and the odds of competing against him are actually very small.

Jon's final plan was to take out the Slytherin locket after the gamble failed, and intimidate the other party into telling the truth......

As far as intimidation is concerned, the younger brother disguised as Voldemort is obviously much more suitable than the subordinates disguised as Dumbledore; after all, the members of the Order of the Phoenix are more upright, and an old fritter like Slughorn will obviously have a lot of countermeasures and have nothing to fear, and only a Death Eater who will be able to serve and even kill your entire family at every turn can scare Slughorn at once and tell the truth more than he does......

The Slytherin locket has a large number of traces of Voldemort's dark magic, and the damage to the physical damage has been temporarily repaired by Jon; as Voldemort's former teacher, Slughorn can obviously see his dark magic; as long as he doesn't recognize this as a destroyed Horcrux at a glance (Slughorn himself has not made a Horcrux, so the chance of seeing through it at a glance is not high), most of them will think that this is Voldemort's "token" to Jon.

Add to that Tom Riddle's name, and Jon also has a badge of the leader of the Knights of Walpust, a quasi-Death Eater organization that existed during Voldemort's schoolyard days, and Slughorn should know it.

By taking this step, Slughorn will be able to scare Slughorn by mistakenly believing that he is Voldemort, and then quietly expressing the Dark Lord's disappointment with Slughorn joining the Order of the Phoenix (becoming a teacher at Hogwarts).

Then ask about the detailed steps of Horcrux production from the beginning, maybe the set can be set out.

It's just that this plan doesn't guarantee that Slughorn is telling the truth, and if he keeps a hand or cheats himself on a certain step, it could affect Astoria's fate......

Luckily, Jon was lucky, and he won the game with a little trick...... With an unbreakable oath as a guarantee, Slughorn had no chance of telling a lie, and he didn't have to fall into the risky step that followed.

However, the specific manufacturing process of the Horcrux described by Slughorn ......

It's very difficult!

......

Cheering up, Jon opened his eyes.

"Jon?" Astoria Greengrass's voice came from not far away.

She was sitting on the floor next to the bed, looking up with some delight......

Jon looked around carefully, only to realize why he had seen a patch of pink before...... He was now in Astoria's room, lying on Astoria's cot.

"You're finally awake...... You slept so well before, I can't bear to wake you up!" Astoria said with a smile on her face.

"Did your mother leave me here?" Jon said, incredulously.

How the hell is this, leaving a wild man on his daughter's bed...... He couldn't help but sneer.

"No......" Astoria blushed slightly, and lowered her head: "Mother is going to put Hodder to help you tidy up a room temporarily, and then I propose to ......"

"Alright!" Jon scrambled out of bed and began to get dressed.

Astoria hurriedly turned his back: "...... It was Hord who helped you change clothes......"

......

I got dressed, and then I put everything I needed in my suitcase -

"Are you leaving...... Don't take a break here...... Or do you want to leave after dinner?" said Astoria, a little disappointed.

"Yes, I need to hurry. Jon nodded solemnly, "We're running out of time. ”

As he spoke, Jon took the crystal bottle filled with the golden liquid from his pocket and stuffed it into Astoria's hand.

"It's ......," Astoria muttered.

"Bring luck to the potion, keep it with you at all times, and drink it if you feel something isn't right......," Jon whispered, "maybe it might help." ”

"Hmm!" Astoria nodded earnestly, then tucked the crystal bottle into her most intimate pocket.

Then she asked softly, "Jon, where are you going, and when will you be back...... Can you tell me about it?"

"I have to go to Austria first...... Then I'm going to Albania...... As for coming back, sorry, I don't know when I'll be back. Jon said honestly.

"Is there any danger?" said Astoria, her face full of concern.

"Don't worry, no!" Jon smiled and touched her head, then walked out of her room.
