Harry's gaze wandered between the Sorting Hat and Phoenix. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

"Then you should really go to Ravenclaw," said Delis Devonte, the portrait on the wall, regretfully. The wand in his hand, carelessly teasing her long silver curls.

"I don't see what's good in holding a book all day," Phineas sneered, but in a change of style, he said in a rare and fair way, "but I don't think we'll be unanimous, and everybody will say that our house is the best." ”

At this time, many of the other old headmasters on the wall, although they were snoring and drooling realistically, were secretly watching them from under their noses.

"That's it, almost. Phoenix got up and stretched, "You know what we're supposed to do now, go back and think about it." I'm afraid Professor Snape is coming back, so you'd better get out of here. ”

He turned to leave, but suddenly remembered another question and turned back again.

"You said - Professor Bobin is a Death Eater, and you won't be in trouble if you beat him up in class, right?"

"Give him a warning, I think it's good. Thank you for your concern, he's a smart guy and will understand. Phoenix said.

He turned to leave, and as he reached the door, he looked up and saw the portrait of Phineas, remembering Draco, who had disappeared since the opening party. None of the professors seemed to notice, and the occasional sight in the hallway, of the lonely Goyle and Crabbe, always felt that something was missing.

"Malfoy seems to be gone, you know?"

Phoenix fished out the meditation basin's memory, put it back in the glass bottle, and pocketed it.

"I'm still wondering when you noticed. He's gone, and I'm afraid he won't come back. ”

"What happened?"

"It's similar to other classmates, my parents are not very good, so it's better to take a break from school for a while. ”

Harry was taken aback by this, considering that the Malfoys had always been a loyal believer in Lord Voldemort. It stands to reason that now should be the time for him to show off his might, not to mention that Snape has become the headmaster, and he can attack and humiliate Harry with impunity.

"It was a surprise to me, and I was still wondering what Malfoy was going to do to get me expelled. Harry's voice was low, "They actually betrayed Voldemort. ”

"Isn't it strange?" Phoenix spread his hands, "Death Eaters themselves are just a community of interests, and when their lives are in danger, it's not difficult to turn around." ”

"Good night. Harry nodded and left the Headmaster's office.

"Good night. ”

After Harry left, Dumbledore woke up from his slumber.

"It would be unwise for you not to let him know about Voldemort's past. He said mildly.

"You've already reminded me of that. I'll be blunt, you don't know what it means to show Harry, and it doesn't make much sense right now. Phoenix said confidently and sat back down.

Before Dumbledore could speak, Snape pushed the door open, and even as the headmaster, he was still stubbornly wearing the black civilian clothes.

"Bobin was a little scared, afraid that you might kill him. Snape walked over slowly, "He probably didn't notice, Draco wasn't there. ”

"Or maybe it's just a cover-up. He accepted the task, as Draco's backup, and it was impossible not to know what he was up against. Phoenix fiddled with his wand, "He doesn't contact you much now, does he?"

Snape knew who Phoenix was referring to. His heart tightened slightly, as he said, Voldemort didn't need him much anymore. For a spy, his mission was accomplished and he no longer had access to important intel as before, which was not good news for Snape. As a spy, without intelligence, there is no value.

"Yes. He said briefly.

"Congratulations, after reading Voldemort, I think you've done a good job and can take a back seat. You don't have to risk your life to work hard for him outside. Stay safe in school and wait to enjoy the fruits of victory. Phoenix's words were full of mockery.

"You know, that's not what I expected. ”

"I believe, but that's fine. After I'm gone, you'll stay here and protect the students. I think that when the Ministry of Magic falls, Hogwarts will inevitably slip into a deplorable state, and then it's all up to you. ”

Phoenix stood up and looked down into Snape's dark eyes. He felt that Snape should be given one last task, one that was not too difficult for him.

"Listen carefully to what I say below, this will be your last mission, and when you are done, you think I will fulfill my promise to you. Snape's expression didn't change, but it gave the impression that he was more serious, his eyes sharper, and something burning in his dark eyes.

"At some point, Voldemort seems to be worried about the life of his serpent. ”

"Worried about Nagini?" said Snape, looking stunned.

"Not bad. If, at some point, Voldemort no longer sends the serpent to carry out the order, but keeps it by his side and protects it with magic, then you must notify me immediately!"

Snape was calm and agreed.

After a long silence.

"Is it necessary to keep Potter in school?" Snape asked.

"I suspect that Scrimgeour will not let Potter out of England, and that it would be useful for him to continue studying magic. You know, his magic level is patheticly low. In the rest of the time, he must be able to protect himself, and I have no thoughts of giving up my life for him. ”

Phoenix took a deep breath and closed his eyes.

"Tomorrow Saturday, write me a note, the old players have graduated, and I need to select a new batch of new team members. ”

The time when there was no class in sixth grade was spent trying to complete a lot of homework assigned by the teacher. Not only do many people work hard as if they have to cope with exams every day, but the homework itself is much more difficult than before.

Now they are required to use silent spells, not only in Defence Against the Dark Arts classes, but also in Charms and Transfiguration classes. In the common room or during meals, Phoenix often sees his classmates with red faces and secretly competing with him, as if he has taken an overdose of constipation. But he knew that they were actually practicing their ability to make magic work without pronouncing the spell out loud. It was only when they came to the conservatory outside that everyone breathed a sigh of relief. The plants dealt with in the herb class were more dangerous now than they used to be, but they could at least chant mantras aloud when the mandrake's poisonous tentacles caught them from behind unexpectedly.

Even students like Phoenix have to spend a lot of time writing essays. Thankfully, he had someone to plan the Slytherin team's training plan for him in advance.
