Ning An took the towel handed over by Daphne and wiped it vigorously on his face, he shook his head with a wry smile, he didn't expect to be a mess on the first day of school. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart: Obviously he just came to school, why is there so much to do.

After a while, Daphne signaled that it had been wiped clean, and Ning An handed the towel back. Daphne put away the towel and sighed, "Okay, if you don't eat again, you should be late for class, you don't want to be late for the first class, right?" ”

Ning An waved his hand at him and said, "Of course, you shouldn't be late for the first class... But now is not the time to go to dinner. ”

As he spoke, he reached to his waist and pulled out a long, slender wand that was pitch black.

"Malfoy!" He shouted at Malfoy.

"Aha... How dare you point your wand at me? Malfoy jumped over from the fireplace and sneered exaggeratedly, "How many spells have you learned?" "Wizards" from the East! He accentuated the pronunciation of the word wizard, as if mocking Ning An for not being able to cast spells.

"Get out your wand, Malfoy." Ning An didn't answer his words, and said in a flat tone: "I'll give you a chance to compete with me." ”

"Aha-" Malfoy, still laughing exaggeratedly, looked at the two henchmen behind him, Crabbe and Goyle, and winked at them, "Did you hear that?" Did you hear that? A wizard from the East, give me a "chance"! ”

Behind them, Crabbe and Goyle laughed in unison. Ning An still didn't move, and many people in the lounge stopped and watched the excitement.

Malfoy turned around and slowly pulled out a wand from his robe, he sneered and said to Ning An, "It's better to let me give you a chance, a "chance" for me to see how you gave me a "chance". ”

Just as he finished saying the note of the last word, Ning An moved, and he suddenly raised his wand and shouted at Malfoy, "Oolong out of the hole!" ”

As soon as Ning An's shout fell, a huge python suddenly appeared in the Slytherin lounge with a puff of black smoke, he coiled his long body, hissing and spitting snake letters, and a pair of lantern-like yellow snake pupils stared at Malfoy, as if he had felt the anger in his heart from the master who had summoned him.

Ning An waved the wand in his hand and pointed at it, and the python pounced on Malfoy like lightning. Malfoy seemed to be frightened by the sudden appearance of the giant snake, and before he could react, the giant snake coiled around his body, and the huge snake body tied him up in the blink of an eye, and the snake head the size of half a table, staring at a pair of snake eyes the size of copper bells, opened its huge mouth at Malfoy, and a foul smell made Malfoy almost breathless, although he was almost out of breath.

"Wow! The other Slytherins in the lounge all watched this scene and let out exclamations, obviously this was an unexpected situation, it was obviously just a prank, no one expected it to develop like this, looking at Ning An's appearance, even if he ordered the python to eat Malfoy next, everyone was not surprised.

Crabbe and Goyle were obviously frightened as well, they measured the gap between their muscles and the terrifying python, looked at each other, nodded, and turned to get out of here first, presumably to find a teacher or prefect.

Yet Daphne stood before them.

"... Get out of the way, nuisance woman. Goyle shouted at Daphne.

"You want to run away from your master?" Daphne didn't say anything, angry at Goyle's insult, she smiled and pulled out her wand, and suddenly shouted, "Stand still!" With Daphne's two leg locks, Crabbe and Goyle fell to the ground.

On the other side, Ning An put his wand back into his waist and slowly walked towards Malfoy, whose face had turned purple. He pinched Malfoy's chin and studied Malfoy's face carefully, but didn't speak.

Malfoy felt that he was about to be suffocated, and he had planned to say a few hard words first, and move out Lucius Malfoy, his father, to intimidate and intimidate this "wizard of the East" with no background.

However, he didn't expect Ning An to ask him if he was convinced or not, nor did he talk to him, but just held his chin with relish and looked at his face with mockery, as if a flower had bloomed on his face.

This made Malfoy feel very humiliated, and at the same time very frightened, because the big snake that bound him was constantly increasing his strength, and he felt that his chest was being squeezed by a majestic force, and he couldn't breathe, and the bones in his body seemed to be crushed one by one.

As time passed, he felt that his consciousness was slowly leaving, and the lively crowd around him seemed to be chattering, they didn't know if Ning An was really going to kill Malfoy, but righteousness and courage were obviously not Slytherin's style, so even if there was a danger of death, no one came up to stop it, but a few people left quietly, it seemed that they were going to inform the teacher or prefect.

At this time, Ning An finally spoke, he gently stroked Malfoy's cheek with his hand, and said in a tone like chatting with a good friend: "I gave you a chance, are you still satisfied, Mr. Malfoy?" ”

Malfoy couldn't open his mouth to reply, so he could barely hold on to his blue face and nodded vigorously.

Ning An stared at Malfoy's eyes without blinking, and looked at him directly, saying, "Malfoy, I can see... You're a cowardly, cowardly guy who desperately wants to pretend to be tall..."

He slowly accentuated his tone, but also the intensity of his stroke, which made Malfoy's cheeks begin to feel a little pain.

"There are many, many people like you in the world—but I want you to accept one piece of advice I have for people like you, Mr. Malfoy."

At this time, Ning An's hand that caressed Malfoy's face had already rubbed red marks on his face, Malfoy only felt a hot pain on his face, the bones all over his body seemed to be broken, and he couldn't breathe at all, he would rather faint like this at the moment than feel better.

Daphne on the side also seemed to feel that Ning An was a little excessive, and turned her head a little unbearably. The onlookers also lowered their voices, and many of the girls either turned their heads away from looking, or frowned slightly. However, there were still many of them, with red eyes and excited to watch this scene, as if it was very exciting for them.

Ning An continued to whisper in Malfoy's ear: "Malfoy, do you understand, your behavior is not a joke in my opinion. Ning An scratched his head as if he was a little distressed, and continued, "In my opinion, this is a provocation - a declaration of war!" Do you understand? ”

He increased the strength in his hand, Malfoy felt that his cheeks began to ooze blood, he felt that his skin must have been rubbed off by Ning An, he only felt that Ning An was a crazy person at this time, he wanted to get away from Ning An like never before, so he looked at Ning An sadly with an almost begging gaze.

Ning An ignored Malfoy's gaze, still looking at himself and whispered, "So... Are you going to declare war on me? Malfoy? ”

Malfoy felt that he was almost unable to hear Ning An's voice clearly, he desperately concentrated his energy, trying to distinguish what Ning An said, hearing this, he exerted all his life's strength, shaking his head frantically, and at the same time begging at Ning An, he believed that he would have to die in a few seconds.

Ning An let go of his hand with satisfaction, and at this time, there was a sound of the stone door opening outside, and it seemed that someone had come in.

He slapped his palm with a "pop", only to hear a "poof", and the big snake turned into a black smoke and disappeared in the blink of an eye. Malfoy collapsed to the ground, "snorting" desperately, gasping for oxygen.

At this moment, the door to the lounge was also opened, and a thin black-haired man entered, wearing a black cloak and robe, with a sallow complexion and a large hooked nose.

At this time, he walked in quickly, looked at Ning An, who was standing next to Malfoy who was taking a big breath of air, and asked indifferently, "What happened here?" ”

Ning An smiled and bent down, pulled Malfoy up half-dragged, helped him and said, "Oh, Professor, the two of us were so excited when we first came into contact with magic, we couldn't help but experiment with two spells, but we didn't control them very skillfully... Maybe something went wrong, but it's fine, isn't it... Malfoy? ”

Malfoy, who was half-hugged by Ning An and lay on his shoulder, heard Ning An's question, and hurriedly said, "Yes... Whew, yes... Teach... Granted, we've been... No problem..."

Ning An guessed that the person standing in front of him now was probably the dean of Slytherin House, Severus? Snape, he smiled at Snape.

At this time, Daphne also came to Ning An's side, raised her hand and said, "Yes, Professor, I can testify for them, it was indeed the two of them who experimented with a small magic spell just now. ”

Snape didn't speak, his face was gloomy, and his black pupils swept indifferently over Malfoy, Ning'an, Daphne, and Crabbe and Goyle who had fallen to the ground, and slowly opened his mouth and spoke

"You'd better clean up this place, I don't want to see that again, ladies and gentlemen." After he finished coldly, he threw off his black robe and turned to leave the common room. Seeing this, the other students also left, although they watched a big play just now, but they still have classes to attend today.

Ning An withdrew Malfoy's hand, ignored him, and walked to Daphne and said, "I think we have to hurry, I don't want to go to class hungry." ”

Daphne stuck her tongue out at him as she walked out of the common room and said, "I take back what I said yesterday, maybe you'll be sorted into Gryffindor." She looked at Ning An with a slight smile and said, "It seems that you are indeed a good fit for Slytherin..."

"Don't be stupid, I'd be more interested in Gryffindor now." Ning An laughed and walked out of the lounge with Daphne.
