Dumbledore's office was a large round room, and the walls were full of portraits of the people. Needless to say, these are the successive Headmasters of Hogwarts.

There was a desk by the window, but instead of sitting there, Dumbledore sat on the reception couch at the other end. In the reception space, there are two men and two women. A man and a woman sat on the couch of the reception, and the other man and woman stood in front of Dumbledore, as if they had just finished some strife and had not yet sat down.

Yes, two men and two women. They are the O'Lanes and the Walga Blake couple and the Signas and Druiella Blake couples. The former is the head of the Black family, and the latter is Bellatrix's parents.

"Good morning, Headmaster Dumbledore. Good morning, Mr. and Mrs. Black. Gail greeted with a smile.

"Good morning, my child." Dumbledore wasn't angry at all because Gale stabbed Lou Zi, he still smiled, "Originally, I didn't want to disturb your first weekend at Hogwarts, but Mr. Black insisted on it, so I had to take your rest time." Want something to drink? ”

"No, thank you, Mr. Principal." Gale rejected Dumbledore's kindness, "And Mr. Black, do you have anything to ask?" I still have some papers to write, please hurry up, okay? ”

"Damn mudbloods! How dare you ......" The somewhat haggard Druela almost pounced on Gale when he heard Gail's words.

"Cygnus!" O'Lane opened his mouth to Signus, who was holding Druela in the way, "What about your wife's etiquette?" Don't do this vixen for the third time! Otherwise, I would be disappointed in the Rozier tutors. Walgab. Finally, he nodded to his wife beside him.

Walgabe, who was sitting next to O'Lane, did not look crazy in black at all, but stood up with great grace while smoothing the slight unevenness on his dark blue skirt and walked to Druella's side.

Under Walgab's gaze, Druela gradually calmed down and stood up straight.

"Mr. Headmaster, if you don't mind, I'd like to borrow the bathroom." Walgab's voice was calm and calm.

Dumbledore smiled and said, "Okay, there it is." As he spoke, he pointed to an inconspicuous door on the left side of the room.

Walgabe nodded to Dumbledore in thanks, and led Druella inside.

"Please forgive my brother-in-law for her rudeness." "She hasn't had enough rest since last night, and she's always been by my niece's side, so it's inevitable that she will be emotional. ”

"It's okay, I understand." Gale nodded to Orion, who was not smiling, in understanding. "Mr. Headmaster, you want to know what happened last night, right?"

"Yes."

Gail didn't feel any pressure to repeat what happened last night: "...... I really didn't expect that Senior Sister would be angry because of this, and it would cause a magic riot! ”

Halfway through Gale's story, Walgabe and Druiella returned. At this time, although Druella was still in a sluggish and haggard state, his whole person had recovered and was neat. The messy hair also became smooth and coiled around his head again, and although his expression was still a little sad, it was no longer as hideous as before.

Everyone in the Black family was well aware that Bella could not have gone into a magical riot and become a squib as Gail said. But it is absolutely impossible for this hemp wizard in front of him to have the ability to do this-let the magic in the body of a wizard who is about to become an adult and then become a squib, such a thing, even that adult cannot do without a trace, let alone this first-grade child!

There are two choices now in front of the Black family: first, she admits that the eldest daughter of her family has a magical riot because of her excitement, so it is her own responsibility to become a squib, which will undoubtedly damage the reputation of the Black family; Two, it is to push the matter onto Gail.

Pushing the matter to Gail, although it gave the Black family a reason to do something to Gale, but it would also be laughed at by the other nobles. No one would believe that a first-year freshman, still a hemp seed, would be capable of doing such a thing! But if the Blakes say this and create the "facts", then everyone will be silent and think that this is the truth.

But in this way, it will inevitably make Gale get a certain honor. Yes, it's an honor. Slytherin values bloodline and also shares strength. A first-year student can do what he did last night - make a seventh-grader a squib, and a dozen sixth- and seventh-graders coma into the medical wing for a whole day, that's strength. And powerful people are worthy of respect and friendship. Regardless of whether this "strength" is true or not, Gale will quickly accumulate some contacts within the community of interests.

Then the problem comes back to the problem, either way, the Black family will become a laughing stock among the nobility of the wizarding world for a while, and the family's reputation will also be hit.

Orion squinted at Gale for a moment, then turned to Severus, who had been silent, "I'd like to hear what you have to say. ”

Severus was silent for a while, moving his lips as if he was at a loss, before he organized his words: "At the beginning, when the senior sisters stopped me and Gail, Gail was responsible for attracting the attention of the senior sisters and making the seniors and seniors angry, so I took the opportunity to leave to find the professor. Later, when I went back with Professor McGonagall, everyone was on the ground. ”

Severus was telling the truth, except that Gail's tactics of attracting the attention of Bella and the others were a little more violent.

Orion turned to look at his brother Cygnus. Obviously, the two knew what was going to happen before they came. The lesser of two evils, for the Black family, admitting that "Bella, as the eldest daughter, is not strong enough" is better than "provoking first-year freshmen to become a squib".

Although he knew that it must have something to do with Gail, he was not in a hurry to take revenge - it is the nature of snakes to hibern, slowly approach their prey to find a weak point, and then hit it with a single blow. That's what snakes are supposed to do.

O'Lane immediately said that Bella's matter had nothing to do with the two hemp seeds. Dumbledore's blue eyes were hidden behind the reflection of the lenses, making it impossible to see: "Then, Mr. Green can leave with Mr. Snape." Sorry for delaying the holidays for both of you. ”

"It's okay, Headmaster. I'm glad to help Mr. and Mrs. Black get to the bottom of the matter! Gail was not afraid to die, and squeezed the Black house with words, and walked out of the headmaster's office with Severus up the spiral staircase.

When the two reached the hallway, Gail took Severus's hand again and "shhhhh

Because this place is still relatively close to the room of requirement, the two of them entered the room where Gail thought that "they could talk about things comfortably".

"Why do you say that last word!" Severus put away the image of the gas bag disguised in the headmaster's office.

"Because I want to draw all their attention to me. You're still too weak. Gail said unceremoniously, "So, we have to hurry!" It's time to get stronger! ”

Seaver knew Gail was telling the truth, but he still felt like he was dragging his feet. His self-esteem was somewhat wounded.

Gale pouted, the last thing he looked down on was Severus's useless self-esteem. There is no shame in longing to be strong, and being weak for a while is not destined to be a coward for the rest of your life. He didn't want Severus to be used by Voldemort again in the spur of the moment. Then, making Severus's heart gradually stronger is undoubtedly the best choice.

First of all, let him know that there are some things that are not to be ashamed of. For example, his family situation, such as his shyness. In fact, if Gail had to find a way, he would still be able to scrape together the money to buy potion materials. He sold a lot of flowers and wiped a lot of cars during the holidays! But he didn't, he preferred to go with Severus and ask Lily to borrow it.

Self-esteem is not a bad thing, but there is no shame in asking friends for help, even if it exposes the fact that you are a poor ghost with no money. This was Gail's idea of an opportunity to get Severus into the habit of "knowing when to stick to his principles and when to turn to people for help."

Seeing Severus's somewhat gray face, which had turned pale almost instantly, Gail realized that his tone was heavy. The Seaver in front of him is just an 11-year-old child, and it is certain that he will have an immature heart. Even when Lily first met him, wasn't she a "little angel of the Virgin" with no brains? He shouldn't just spur Severus like that, but he should do it step by step like Penny!

But he's not Penny! How does he know how a child at this age will grow up? It's been decades since he was really 11 years old, and he can't remember it at all!

"Well, I said the wrong thing, don't do that! I'm sorry! Gail was a little overwhelmed - he was sure Severus wouldn't cry like the average 11-year-old, but Seaver's expression was worse than crying right now! Why don't you hit me twice! ”

As a Gail with an adult soul, looking at Severus's expression, he can't wait to give himself two pestles! It's definitely not an honorable thing to make a little child cry so much that he can't cry!

Severus was still discouraged by Gail's statement that he was weak, but his mood gradually calmed down when he heard Gail's flustered and ridiculous words afterwards.

Well, Gail is telling the truth. Seaver thought, but I'm not going to be so weak forever!

While Gale was still struggling with "I made the child cry", Severus succeeded in achieving one of Gail's original goals - to solve a problem, first admit that it existed. Severus admits that he is a "weak" being, and begins to work hard to become "not weak"-
