Chapter Seventy-Nine: It's All Big Shots!
"You're not kidding, are you?" said Ron in disbelief, "We are born and die, and you want to swallow the Philosopher's Stone alone?"
"Of course I'm not joking," Zhang Hao said calmly: "Everyone has greed, and I am no exception." What's so strange about that?"
"How dare you admit it, bastard," Draco said disdainfully, "Did you succeed without saving Potter?
"That's not hypocrisy, that's goodness!" Hermione didn't like Draco's statement, she rebuked, "You're kind yourself, why don't you want to admit it? ”
Draco snorted coldly and turned his head to look away.
Zhang Hao vaguely saw that the corners of his mouth were twitching, and he didn't know if it was an illusion.
"Hao, but you saved me, didn't you?" Harry said with a smile, "You can't deny that, regardless of your intentions, you stopped Quirrell from snatching the Philosopher's Stone." ”
"Let's not worry about it so much, both in heart and in action, you are a person who truly contributes to Hogwarts. Zhang Hao said helplessly: "So all the honors, you deserve it." If you really feel that you deserve it, then try hard next time, this kind of thing can't happen just once. Do you see what I mean?"
Harry was silent when he heard this, he knew it very well. Voldemort will definitely make a comeback, and there is indeed a real possibility that he will encounter some terrible conspiracy again.
"I see!" he said with high spirits, "next time, I don't need you to save me!" I will thwart Voldemort's plot by my own efforts. ”
At this time, the friends were already dumbfounded.
They had always thought it was just Quirrell, but it turned out to be related to Voldemort.
This is very exciting news!
"Are you talking about the mystery man?" Ron said in horror, "He's not dead yet?"
"Be quiet, don't be heard. Zhang Hao warned: "People will not believe this news, and if they do, it will be worse, and it will cause panic." ”
"Then tell us quietly," Draco whispered, "tell us everything you know, or I'll spread it everywhere." ”
Zhang Hao and Harry glanced at each other, and could only tell them the truth.
True stories are more bizarre and thrilling than unfounded rumors, which are very rare, and that is what it is now.
Harry told his friends everything as it was: Quirrell, the Mirror of Eris, the Philosopher's Stone, and Voldemort.
Together, it's as exciting as epic.
But while the friends were excited, they were like immersed in a nightmare.
"This is really sad news. Ron pouted, "What bad will he do next time?"
"Hao! you can defeat the combination of Quirrell and the mysterious man. Hermione looked at Zhang Hao adoringly, like looking at a god.
"It's just a fluke this time," Zhang Hao shook his head and said, "I don't know how powerful Voldemort will be when he appears next time, and I may not be able to compete with him." ”
This is a problem that everyone has to face, everyone is silent when they hear it, and breakfast time has become extremely depressing.
Just then, an owl flew towards them.
This is a silver-gray owl, and it belongs to Zhang Hao.
"It's Carl, and it brings two letters. Hermione said curiously, "Carl rarely seems to bring letters back, Hao, do you know who gave you the letter?"
Carl dropped the letter on the table, and Harry grabbed some nuts for him.
Zhang Hao picked up the first letter, which had the Gringotts logo on it.
Dear Mr. Hao Zhang,
We are pleased to inform you that there is a new progress on your bounty. The brave Mr. Michael Edward, who had successfully dived into the volcano of the Lomite Mountains two days earlier, had achieved the Phoenix Egg in a state of nirvana. I hope you will take time out of your busy schedule to write a reply to the time when you will be dealt with. We look forward to your bounty coming to a successful conclusion.
Notary Gringotts: Sincerely, Luke.
"The phoenix egg has been removed, and Gringotts wants me to deal with the matter as soon as possible. Zhang Hao suppressed his excitement and said: "This is good news, we should probably celebrate." ”
The friends cheered and said some words of congratulations.
Only Draco said unhappily, "It's shit luck, how good it would be if I could have a phoenix?"
"Phoenixes are not cabbage, how can there be so many?" Ron said angrily: "Even if there are so many phoenixes, do you have the money to let people catch them for you?"
Draco snorted in disbelief, not saying anything more.
"Look at the second letter," Harry urged, "and what is written on it?"
On the cover of the second letter, stamped with the Ministry of Magic.
Dear Mr. Hao Zhang,
The Ministry of Magic is pleased to inform you that what you want is ready, please come and talk to me the day after the holiday.
Minister for Magic: Cornelius Fudge.
This second letter is much shorter than the first letter, but it shocks the friends far more than the first letter.
"Oh my God, the Minister of Magic wrote to you?" Even Ron, who had always been at odds with Zhang Hao, was a little adoring at the moment: "That's a big man in the wizarding world!"
"Dumbledore is also a big man in the wizarding world, isn't he?" Zhang Hao said helplessly: "Don't make a fuss. ”
"Voldemort is also a big man in the wizarding world, right?" Harry said with a smile, "Hao defeated Voldemort, so he is also a big man in the wizarding world." It's a conversation between big shots, am I right?"
"Listening to you say that, it seems to have some point. Draco pursed his lips and said awkwardly, "Shouldn't it be an honor for us to sit with a big man now?"
"Draco, don't be so sour, okay?" Hermione said amusedly, "We're all friends, we don't have status, right?"
Everyone looked at Hermione as if she had said something terrible.
"You're right!" Draco laughed heartily, "I never thought this guy was great. ”
When they heard this, everyone laughed out loud.
Although it was only a year of contact, it made everyone very happy.
"Hurry up and reply!" Ron said enviously, "I have nothing to do today, we will accompany you." ”
Zhang Hao looked at the immature faces around him and felt that all the efforts in the past year were worth it!
In the company of these children, he has regained incredible vitality.
"Good!" he said with a smile, "write back now." ”
Perhaps, the strongest secret to maintaining immortality is to keep the soul young.
On top of that, add a little more money power!
