Lin Xiaoan (pretended) sat obediently on the couch, (seemingly) listening intently to Professor Snape.
"This year, I'm no longer a Potions teacher......"
"What?!" Lin Xiaoan (feigned) was surprised.
"Don't make a fuss......," Professor Snape said calmly, "I'll be teaching Defence Against the Dark Arts, and Potions will be taught by Professor Slughorn." β
Slug...... Horne...... Professor? Lin - actor - Xiao An asked suspiciously.
"Professor Slughorn is a master of potions, but because of his low profile (he was scared into hiding by Voldemort), you should be forgiven for not knowing his name."
β¦β¦
Dwarf oil, you hypocritical, business-loving adults, deceiving children......
Lin Xiaoan secretly whitewashed Professor Snape's words in his heart...... Rolled his eyes.
Unaware of Lin's mental activity, Professor Snape continued, "I agreed with Professor Slughorn that since you want to become a teaching assistant in Potions after graduation - you are going to give Professor Slughorn a hand in his N.E.W.T class starting this semester. β
Business...... Decide? Amazing...... It's not a consultation, it's an agreement?! This means that labor and management will tell you that it will be over, and there is no need to ask you for your opinion in advance, and you will be the same as disagreeing anyway...... Right?!
"Teacher...... Are you really going to abandon me? Lin Xiaoan said with tears in his eyes.
β¦β¦
Professor Snape took Lin Xiao'an as a closed disciple, and the level of anti-riot words grew, and he directly skipped this stubble and started the next topic: "We, Dumbledore and I, found a broken body in the depths of the Hogwarts Forbidden Forest, and we are Slytherin students. β
Oh, I know he's got leftovers from the eight-eyed spider, and huh?
Lin Xiaoan raised his eyebrows and said casually: "It's a pity...... This would be a bad ...... to our reputation at Hogwarts."
"I want you to assure me that the same incident will not happen again!"
Straight ball? It's a straight ball! Report! It's a foul!!
Lin Xiaoan laughed dryly, and then said, "Teacher...... You've embarrassed me, how can I guarantee ......"
β¦β¦
Professor Snape looked Lin Xiao'an in the eyeβunfortunately obsidian black, not emerald green: "Hogwarts students, no matter what they do, they don't deserve a private trial, do you understand?" β
Lin Xiaoan faked coughing a few times, lowered his voice and said, "...... Got it. β
Professor Snape continued, "Remember, you are not allowed to assert yourself, you are not allowed to go near the Dark Lord's sphere, you are not allowed to suppress the Death Eaters' estate...... Our aim is to catch them all, so that they don't startle the snakes. β
This is not allowed, neither is that, labor and management are simply not called Lin Xiaoan, but changed their name to Lin Buxu......
Lin Xiaoan said solemnly: "For the sake of the future of the wizarding world, I resolutely obey the arrangement!" β

School has started.
Harry Savior Potter boarded the train to Hogwarts.
Ron and Hermione were about to go to the prefect's box, but Ann was nowhere to be seen, and Harry had to walk down the aisle alone, trying to find an empty box.
As he approached, everyone stared at him unabashedly. Someone even put his face on the glass window of the box in order to look at him.
He had known that he would have to endure the increased staring and onlookers of him this semester after the Daily Prophet had published the rumors about the "Star of Saviour", but he really didn't like the feeling of being in the spotlight.
β¦β¦
"Hey, Harry!" A familiar voice came from behind him.
"Neville!" Harry breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to see a round-faced boy struggling to squeeze in this direction.
"How's the summer vacation going? The newspapers are all about you and-"
"Alright, I meanβNeville, let's get a seat." Harry said, and together they squeezed past the stunned students and down the aisle.
Eventually, they found an empty box, and Harry was relieved to get inside.
β¦β¦
The weather outside the car window was sunny and cloudy, and it was like that all summer. As soon as you drive through the cold fog, you can see a clear and faint sun.
When the sun was almost shining outside the window, Ron and Hermione finally walked into the box.
"I really hope the food delivery truck will come over quickly, I'm hungry." Ron clutched his stomach and sat next to Harry.
"By the wayβguess what?" He then turned to Harry and said, "Malfoy, as a prefect, didn't even go on duty. He was just sitting in the box with a few other Slytherin students, and we saw it as we walked by. β
Hermione said impatiently, "Whatever he is...... Hey, where did Ann go? β
Harry spread his hands: "I haven't met him, since King's Cross - he went back to his house in late August, and this year Ann didn't even have his birthday party." β
Hermione stood up again and said, "That's- I'll look for it-"
