Although the outside world was messed up by Voldemort, it was still very peaceful inside Hogwarts, with Dumbledore guarding it, Voldemort easily did not dare to harass him, and the students still lived a leisurely life.

But under the leisure, there is still an undercurrent flowing, and Avery and Muri Saibo, who live in the same dormitory with Shen Long, begin to carefully test Shen Long's attitude towards dark magic and Death Eaters, which does not surprise Shen Long, both of them are from pure-blood wizard families, and they will also be on the list of Death Eaters in the future.

Since Shen Long was able to deal with Lucius, it was not a problem to deal with two children with insufficient brains, he didn't have much effort to easily persuade them to temporarily extinguish this thought, and under Shen Long's deterrence, these two guys became well-behaved in school and did not do anything to make Lily angry.

But Shen Long can control the two of them or the junior students, and some of the senior students are more troublesome, but things seem to have changed a little, Shen Long can feel that Narcissa Black is obviously not as active as last year, maybe this is the role of Lucius, since Lucius himself plans to be a second or fifth boy, he definitely doesn't want his future wife to continue to be a Death Eater.

Well, this is all a good change, Voldemort's power has been weakened, and the number of Death Eaters who follow him is decreasing, and there are people in the Death Eaters who have reported to Dumbledore, if Voldemort plans to attack Hogwarts, or deal with the people around him, Lucius will definitely report to him in advance.

This allowed Shen Long to continue to enjoy the life in the school and learn those useful magic in depth, Snape's foundation turned out to be very good, coupled with his hard work, now only in the second year, Shen Long has mastered all the magic that ordinary graduates should master, and has begun to study more in-depth magic.

In this regard, Slughorn is a good teacher, in response to his love of vanity, Shen Long quickly gained his trust, Slughorn originally liked geniuses, and when he met a student like Shen Long who had an appetite, he was eager to teach him, and even some sensitive black magic began to teach Shen Long.

Shen Long is not as timid as other wizards when it comes to black magic, as long as it doesn't harm his body and consciousness, if it's just a cruel method, he won't care, knowledge is useful, the key depends on who to deal with with this cruel magic, the more powerful and cruel the enemy, the better.

In addition to studying, Shen Long is also a popular figure in sports and school social activities, and the second-year students have become the idols of the whole school, whether it is Slytherin, Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff students, they all like to associate with him, even Gryffindor, there are many freshmen who have just entered the school around him.

Even some of the old students have softened their attitudes, and although he is a Slytherin student, he doesn't hate it at all, does he? He also saved the Ravenclaw students, and he didn't have the natural hostility of the Slytherin students towards Gryffindor, who was willing to help whoever asked for his help, and who wouldn't love such a student?

Now I am afraid that the only ones who are still resolutely hostile to Shen Long are James and them, and most of this hostility comes from jealousy, because Shen Long has stolen the light that originally belonged to them.

Jaime and the others also knew the proportions, and did not continue to make an agreement with Shen Long to gamble, which made Shen Long a little regretful, and he also wanted to get the map of the living point from Jaime and them.

That night, after dinner and a brief chat with the Slytherin students in the common room, Shen Long went out to get ready for a date with Lily, and now they often find a quiet place to walk or talk together.

Today, Shen Long and Lily made an appointment at the edge of the Forbidden Forest, and when he arrived at the place, he found that Lily was not there, and waited for a while before seeing Lily hurriedly running over, "Seaver, someone asked me just now if I know where you are, it seems that a new student is screaming that something has happened to the other side of the shack, and they want you to go over and help take a look!" ”

"Oh? What the hell is going on? Shen Long instinctively felt that this matter was not simple, because this place was too sensitive, and when he looked up at the sky, he was even more sure of the thoughts in his heart.

"I don't know, I heard that it seems that the freshman was caught by something and went to the screaming shack, should we go over and take a look?" Lily was a little eager to try, after all, she was a Gryffindor student, and she definitely didn't lack courage in terms of courage.

"Alright, then let's go over together!" Shen Long took Lily and walked towards the beating willow, and the entrance to the screaming shack was just below the beating willow.

Near the beating willow, Lily asked, "How are we going to get in?"

The beating willow has a furious temperament, and no matter what hits it, it will be beaten by the willow branch, unless the knots on the branch are pressed, and the beating willow will immediately calm down.

Lily was looking around for tools that could press the knots, but Shen Long stood there motionless, and after a while, he walked straight to the beating willow, Lily was about to exclaim, but saw that the branches of the beating willow gradually quieted down, and did not attack Shen Long at all, Shen Long just walked to the beating willow.

Gently reaching out and stroking the trunk of the beating willow, and scratching the branches a few times, the branches of the beating willow began to rustle and shake, as if the person had been tickled.

"Seaver? How did you do that? Lily looked surprised, she didn't remember such magic.

"Well, maybe it's my own talent." Shen Long said reservedly, in fact, he used the method of communicating with plants given to him by the tree man, although the temper of the beating willow was short-tempered, but suddenly met an object who could communicate with him, the beating willow was still very happy, and happily let go of his branches, revealing the entrance to the screaming shack.

"Lily, come here, I've already introduced you to it, and you won't have to worry about it hitting you when you appear here in the future!" Shen Long beckoned and motioned for Lily to come over, "When you want to be quiet, you can come here to rest, make sure no one will disturb you, you just need to tickle it, it likes this very much!" ”

Shen Long scratched a few more times, and the beating willow made a rustling sound again, as if he was laughing.

"Seaver, you always surprise me!" Lily smiled happily and tried to scratch it a few times, and Beater Willow really liked it.

"Let's go inside! Goodbye, I'll come back to see you when I come out! Lily remembered the missing student, and after a few attempts, she quickly pulled Shen Long into the passage under the beating willow.
