Chapter 61: The Time Turner
Hogwarts was having a sorting ceremony as usual, and the new students were standing nervously waiting for Professor McGonagall to call their names and put on their dirty sorting hats, which would determine which house each new student should go to.
"Why didn't Snape show up where the professor was?" After entering the auditorium, Ron glanced around and found that there were two vacant seats in the teacher's seat, one of which naturally belonged to Lin Zixuan, who brought them over, and he didn't have the figure of Snape, who he hated the most.
"Is he sick?" Ron said hopefully.
"Maybe he's already out of Hogwarts." Harry glanced at Lin Zixuan, who was pulling Hermione in front, and guessed, "You know that he has always been quite a Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, but this time Professor Lin took the lead. ”
"Perhaps," a cold voice came from behind, "he wants to hear you explain why you didn't come on the school bus with you!" ”
"Could it be that Harry Potter, who is famous for his life, thinks that if he is with other classmates, he will lose his identity?" There was a palpable sarcasm on Snape's face.
"We've been stopped outside the platform of nine and three-quarters, it's Professor Lin......" Harry's face flushed, he didn't know why this Snape always seemed to be targeting him.
"That's enough, Mr. Potter, I don't want to hear your ridiculous excuses anymore, you should be glad you're not a Slytherin, or I wouldn't mind getting you out of Hogwarts!" Snape interrupted Harry, speaking in an unkind tone.
"I think you should let Mr. Potter finish, Professor Snape!" Lin Zixuan looked at Snape with a smile, he didn't believe that they wouldn't know what had happened!
When we first met, this Snape was very hostile to him, and Lin Zixuan didn't think that he was really so interested in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, after all, it was because of Harry Potter!
Snape's feelings for Harry are very special, on the one hand, he hates Harry, Harry's father Jaime once almost killed him, and finally snatched his most beloved woman, and Harry still looks so similar to James, how can this not make Snape disgusted.
On the other hand, if Lin Zixuan were asked to name the people in this world who could protect Harry with their lives, then his first reaction would definitely be this Snape!
Just because he's Lily's child, just because he has the same eyes as his mother.
When Snape died, the last thing he said was 'Look at me', which he said to Harry, and when he saw the same green eyes as Lily, he closed them with a smile.
Lin Zixuan didn't understand why a person's love for another person could reach such a level, so deep, so intense, and so distorted......
"When it was time to find out that Ron and I weren't on the train, Hermione found Professor Lin and brought us back here." Harry breathed a sigh of relief and quickly explained that he really didn't want to face Snape, whether it was the cold eyes, the serious expression, or the greasy hair, he felt an inexplicable sense of oppression.
"Hmph, I hope you can have such good luck in the future!" Snape snorted coldly and went straight back to the teacher's seat.
"Alright, you guys hurry back to your academy and sit down, the sorting ceremony is about to end." Lin Zixuan waved his hand to a few people, and also left behind Snape, he knew that Dumbledore would definitely look for him in a while!
Sure enough, after the dinner was over, Lin Zixuan appeared in Dumbledore's office, along with Professor McGonagall, after all, Harry and the three of them were all from Gryffindor House.
"Need nose fudge?" Dumbledore smiled and took out a tray and placed it on the table, "This is a French specialty, it has a special taste, and it makes a sound similar to blowing your nose when you bite it." ”
Lin Zixuan shook his head in disgust, he didn't know where this old man came from so many strange hobbies, collecting wool socks of various colors, special flavored Bibi flavored beans, and this toffee.
"Okay then." Dumbledore put the tray back in the drawer, "Can you tell us what happened?" That wall shouldn't have been sealed for a certain amount of time. ”
"Is this the meditation basin, how the hell is this thing made?" Lin Zixuan looked at a copper basin placed on the corner of the table with great interest, there were some silver-white silk threads constantly surrounding the basin, there were actually a lot of magical things in this world that attracted him, and the meditation basin was one of them.
"Professor Lin, I don't think now is the time to study the meditation basin." Professor McGonagall frowned.
"Well, well, that wall has been enchanted before, but it might not be appropriate to say that it is human, because from the traces left on it, I think it is more like a magical creature, like a goblin or a house-elf." Lin Zixuan shrugged.
Professor McGonagall glanced at Lin Zixuan suspiciously, she didn't believe Lin Zixuan's statement, the goblins and mercenary guys had no reason to do such a thing, and the house-elf, as a loyal servant of the traditional wizard's family, not to mention its rarity, it was impossible for its identity alone.
Dumbledore's eyes narrowed, a faint glow reflected from his half-moon-shaped glasses, "Now that things have figured out what is going on, Professor McGonagall, you can go back and rest." ”
Professor McGonagall nodded and walked away, knowing that Dumbledore should have something to say to the mysterious Lin alone.
"Thank you, Professor Lin, for bringing those three little guys back, otherwise I think their little heads might come up with something to give them a headache." When there were only two people left in the office, Dumbledore said meaningfully.
"I'm also a professor at Hogwarts, after all." Lin Zixuan seemed to be unaware of Dumbledore's attitude, and responded directly, if it weren't for him, the two little lions would really fly over in that Ford Anglia.
"Professor Lin, I recently heard that a very important magic prop was stolen from the Ministry of Magic, have you heard?"
"You mean the time transformer?" Lin Zixuan laughed, "I've read the previous Daily Prophet, and it seems that Voldemort's Death Eaters did it. ”
Dumbledore blinked, Voldemort ......
