Draco reinserted his wand back into his staff. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
"Of the famous dark wizards in history, Voldemort may be the strongest, but by no means the most influential. Phoenix tapped him on the shoulder, and the two began to return the same way, "He has nothing to leave England, and you have my protection, and if you want to find you, he needs to do it himself." ”
"When he comes to his senses, he will definitely hunt you down, but he will never do it himself, he has more important things. It will take him a while to figure it out. You go tomorrow night and go straight to the Mediterranean, and your mother will go with you. Your father will fake his death like you, and take another route to fight you—"
Phoenix explained the plan to him, and Draco kept his head down and didn't say a word.
"We've been together for six years, but I've never really known you. He said suddenly as he walked to the fifth floor.
By this time, the lights had gone out, and they lit their wands, causing the surrounding portraits to clamore for them to hurry up.
"On the contrary, man, the time with you at school is the real me. Many words, things, and practices are completely different. Except for a few people around me, most of them wished I was going to die, and I had to be vigilant. Phoenix laughed, "You've lived with your family in danger of life—a month? You don't want to have a second time, but I've been living in this atmosphere, and my parents have already gone one step ahead, and I'm going to be in this atmosphere for a long time in the future we can meet." ”
"But you're better than me, more than me—" Draco tried to find a suitable word.
"Ruthless or decisive. That's right, I have to be so, or I'll die. Phoenix helped him out, "It's reality, Draco, I think it's far more complicated and dangerous than your father said, you're not the dark wizard's material." Take advantage of this time to take a good look at the world, understand the world, and when it is over, you may find your way. ”
Back in the common room, with a circle of people sitting around the fire, Professor Slughorn eagerly began to select students to his satisfaction.
Rog, Daphne and her sister Astoria, and a little bit, may be the top student this year. He was holding a glass of mead and a plate of small snacks on the table.
"That's it, Edgar, if you can't even manage a grade, how can you do great things in the future. "I remember Vorple—" and was a little surprised to see Phoenix, "Oh, Phoenix, my boy—how did you come back?"
Even mischievous students don't hang out at this time.
"Nothing, talk to a friend. ”
"Hello, Professor. I'm Malfoy, Draco Malfoy. Draco stepped forward to say hello to the professor, "Sir, I think you must know my grandfather, Abraxas Malfoy, right?"
"Yes," Slughorn said without looking at Draco, "I'm sad to hear he's dead, but that's to be expected, he's suffering from pox at that age—"
Draco was keenly aware that Slughorn was deliberately distancing himself from him.
As he spoke, he pulled out his pocket watch.
"Oh my God, let's see what time it is, that's it, kids. He turned to the students and said, "We'll talk later." ”
Draco didn't say hello to anyone and went straight back to his dorm.
"Well, he's good, isn't he?" asked Phoenix.
"Oh, it started well-"
"From the moment he started talking about his protégés, it wasn't that interesting. Daphne hurriedly said, "Isn't it?"
Astoria nodded, under the impression that her sister rarely communicated with them, and that when she sat in her chair, she was extremely graceful and effeminate. Rogge stood up and said goodnight to him and left. Then Astoria also left.
"It's all gone. ”
"Do you still want to have a prom!" Daphne said sarcastically, "you can go too, don't be late for the first day of school." ”
The boy who was nervous when he saw Phoenix looked over here.
"Son, you are sensible and understand so quickly who the Slytherin is. Phoenix said proudly.
After the boy left, Daphne exploded.
"I really don't understand, why do they all listen to you?"
"It's a gender advantage. However, I never mind, bowing my head in front of erotic forces. He said lightly, "And in addition to conscientiously performing the duties of the prefect, you are not outstanding in other aspects, although the background is enough, but after all, you are a girl." ”
She muttered resentfully.
"By the way, are you going to enroll in alchemy?" said Phoenix, "and if there are more than three sixth-grade students who want to learn, the school will offer this course." I know, two learners have signed off. ”
"Not interested. Compared to this, Slughorn said just now that the divination class was not taught by Professor Trelawney, but by the centaur. ”
Phoenix was surprised. It suddenly occurred to me that Professor Trelawney had been kidnapped, and although Voldemort had released her, her whereabouts were still unknown.
There were so many things going on during the summer vacation that he completely forgot about it.
"Maybe it was captured by the Death Eaters. ”
"What's the use of catching that old liar," Daphne disbelieved, "it should be resignation." ”
"It doesn't matter, whoever taught me wouldn't have taken that class anyway. ”
The two fell silent in understanding.
Phoenix, Melinda, Daphne, Draco, Pansy, Nott, Blaise, Goyle, Crabbe, and a group of people make up all sorts of strange dreams around the fireplace that seems like a long time ago.
Melinda has changed schools, Draco is about to leave, Nott has been silent since his father's death and has become estranged from Phoenix, perhaps succeeding his father as a Death Eater and understanding that Phoenix is on the other side, Blaise has no interest in the war and is a relatively moderate pure-blood, he has no atrocities, but he has no respect for Muggle-borns, and as for Crabbe and Goyle, their presence is low, and they have always been Draco's henchmen. They are usually regarded as coolies because they have well-developed limbs and are simple-minded. Pansy had been with them purely because of Draco, and I was afraid there wouldn't be much communication in the future.
"It's deserted. It seems that Daphne is thinking the same thing as him, feeling the same way.
"Maybe it will be more deserted in the future,"
Phoenix looked around, and the empty lounge was silent, except for the occasional faint crackling sound from the fire, which made it even more sad.
"It's late, let's go. ”
After saying goodbye, the two went in opposite directions. Passing by the Slytherin Wall of Honor, he stopped.
It has all the portraits of wizards from Slytherin, and of course it has to be a person of fame to be among them. These include Merlin, Phineas Black, Perseus Parkinson, Ottalane Gamble, and others.
The portraits were asleep, and some of the ancestors of the classmates were also on them, and I wonder how they would feel if they knew the situation today. (To be continued.) )
