At three o'clock in the afternoon, when Holly arrived at the door of the hall, he found McGonagall already at the door of the hall. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Do you have time to walk around, Holly?"

"My pleasure, Professor. ”

"Actually, you don't need to be so formal, now, I'm just an old witch over fifty, and there is no need to think of me as a teacher in the academy. The two walked on the lake outside the castle, chatting as they went.

"Get used to it, Professor. ”

"Well, I didn't know you existed in the first place, and if it weren't for Severus's concern for you that day, I wouldn't be sure of your identity. Your mother, well, is really good at spells, and I didn't expect her to hide your existence from everyone. How are you doing in the past 10 years?"

"My mother, you mean you know my mother? ”

"yes, she's a very smart witch, she's top in every way, but she's also serious, a bit like Hermione, but she's a lot softer than Hermione... She's smart, she's my favorite student in that batch, not just mine, she's probably the favorite student of all the teachers. Meticulous, and so kind to others. ”

"Professor, are you sure you're talking about my mother?" Holly interrupted McGonagall's recollection.

"Yes, aside from not being particularly good at Defence Against the Dark Arts and Herbology, she's almost a perfect student, maybe not so perfect because of her background. Her origins meant that she would never reach the highest level. Maybe it's inevitable, she's too perfect in other ways, only in this one. ”

"Her origins, Professor?"

"Uh... It's too nostalgic and seems to say a lot more... Okay, can you tell me your story over the years, there are some things that you will know when you get there, including your life history that is still in a state of secrecy for the time being. ”

"Well, actually, I've been growing up in an orphanage all these years, but every year on my birthday, Uncle Severus and Aunt Yelena will take me out for a day, and nothing else. From a very young age, I've tried to control my magic so that I don't look different. Holly simply finished talking about his ten years of experience, and there was no fluctuation in his feelings, as if those were other people's past, not his own.

A somewhat overmature child, McGonagall gave Holly that way. Seeing that the conversation between the two was about to come to a standstill, McGonagall abruptly changed the subject.

"You deducted the twenty points that Gryffindor deducted last night?"

"Maybe, I don't know... I just saw four Gryffindor students running out of the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor, and I shouted to scare them, but I don't know exactly what happened and why. ”

"Oh, then I'll be clear... I don't think Helley, you don't know the full meaning of the head wizard of the Wizengamot being treated as a professor in the school..."

"What else does the professor's treatment mean? other than the curfew is not affected and the book accident in the library's forbidden section. ”

"The professor's treatment is not just that, but also the professor's own lounge, office, and other hardware, as well as the easy access to many Hogwarts teachers, and even the right to punish students for confinement. But I personally suggest that you still use less of the punishment rights in the back, I think your mother's purpose in hiding your life experience is definitely not to make you the most dazzling one in the spotlight... If you want to hide a leaf, you have to put it in the forest. ”

"Hide a leaf, and put it in the forest... So, Professor, am I just a backup option?"

"I don't think so, but your family is one of the oldest families in the wizarding world, and there are some things that everyone knows about each family, and I don't know about it..."

"Then he shouldn't know I exist... Otherwise, how could he be so comfortable. Hehe, messing around the school in the middle of the night, and even running to the forbidden area to explore. ”

"Forbidden Zone?Holly, where are you talking about?"

"I think so..."

"Okay, I think that's the end of our conversation for today, forget about what I told you about your background, at least don't say it until Severus tells you, I think she has her considerations, and her arrangements, at the very least, don't interfere with her arrangements until you get her truest thoughts, okay?"

"Yes, Professor. I guess you're going to find Dumbledore, I'll just take a walk outside. ”

"Professor, what if... I said yes, what should I do if I want to learn the content of the senior year in advance?" Holly called McGonagall, who turned to leave, and asked her own question.

"I don't think there's any procedural problem with you, you can come to my class whenever you want to, and I think Severus and Felius will be happy for you to be in their class. You know, you're a professor student, which is rare or unheard of in the centuries-old history of Hogwarts. With that, McGonagall hurried to the castle. The things of the savior were somewhat beyond McGonagall's control and expectations.

Holly, on the other hand, sat alone on the edge of the lake, lying on the grass by the lake, looking at the sky in a daze, watching the sun gradually go down without the slightest feeling.

It was a big shock, and Holly realized the cruelty of life for the first time. When McGonagall told herself what might be behind the hidden background, Holly herself was stunned... She never considered the possibility that she might just be a spare tire... In Holly's subconscious, she never saw herself as a substitute...

When the sun went down, Holly still didn't leave the lake, and everything was messed up... Although McGonagall said that this was just her speculation, Holly knew that this so-called speculation was too close to the truth... She's just a substitute hidden in the dark, a backup option that's hard to show up in the sun. And that preference is to enjoy all the protection that many ordinary people do not have, but they can only follow the path designed by others. And themselves... More missions are just alive without any limitations. Thinking about this, it was as if Holly suddenly understood something. The brown eyes, suddenly shining, gave a very different feeling than before. It's as if something has happened, a little metamorphosis.

P.S: I'm really sorry for everyone, running out to play and having fun...
