44. Apathy and enthusiasm

The Potions class ended with Gryffindor deducting eleven points and two students being injured.

Early the next morning, Harry finally mustered up the courage to go to the Slytherin table and excitedly told Lynn how surprised he was when he received Hagrid's invitation yesterday, how clingy the black dog's teeth were, and how stinky his saliva was......

In the end, he also gave Lin An two pieces of rock skin cake:

"It was so hard that it almost broke my teeth, but Hagrid loved it." And highly recommended.

At the Slytherin table, there were people constantly looking at him, and their eyes couldn't tell whether they were good or bad.

Harry felt a little uncomfortable.

Draco, who was sitting beside Lin's case, snorted coldly, staring at the two rock skin cakes with a contemptuous expressionβ€”

"Draco."

Lin An put down the spoon.

She had a salted broth, a vegetable salad, and parsley mashed potatoes this morning, and it tasted pretty good.

So much so that her voice at the moment was gentle: "Can you take everyone to the classroom first?" ”

Draco's words came to an abrupt halt.

Then, he stood up with some rude movements (the stool moved to make a sound), but he still walked away with the freshmen in silence.

Ron watched from the sidelines and muttered, "It's like a ruthless army, dictatorship." ”

Then, he silenced under Lin An's nose again.

Harry didn't notice this, and he only breathed a sigh of relief when the man was gone, and then excitedly sat down in a chair next to him, and described to Lin An a daily prophet that he had found on Hagrid's desk yesterday.

It was about the illegal break-in of Gringotts.

He said with a hint of mystery, "Lin An, I may have forgotten to tell you that the day I went to Diagon Alley with Hagrid, he took something from Gringotts......"

Lin An knew that this was about the Philosopher's Stone.

But she didn't say anything about it, just listened quietly to Harry's analysis, then put down her fork and asked:

"Harry, do you have any good friends in Gryffindor?"

As he spoke, his eyes looked at Ron again, "I know Ron is." You're always inseparable. ”

Harry squirmed for a moment, "Oh, and maybe Hermione, you know, she knows a lot......"

"No one else?"

"Nope." Harry didn't understand why she was bringing it up, and was still focused on Gringotts:

"Gringotts that thing......"

"Harry."

Lin An interrupted him, "I remember that you and Neville were in the same dormitory. ”

That poor stupid boy, Lin An just asked a few gentle words, and he said everything.

Including his grandmother's strict discipline against him, and his uncle threw him into the lake because he was suspected of being a squib when he was a child......

Just a slight stammer.

He even apologized seriously for not properly packing up his notes.

But when he lay in the infirmary, crying because of the severe pain all over his body, there was no one around him.

Except for the forest bank.

Even Seamus, who was injured with him, left quickly after drinking the potion because of his slight injuries

Neville's feet were so corroded that he had a lot of potions splashed on his face, so he drank the potion and spent the night in the infirmary, waiting for the wound to grow.

"After class that day, I accompanied Neville to the infirmary. He couldn't get out of bed or walk at night, and it was the Slytherin students who came to deliver food. ”

"This morning, I noticed that he came to Gryffindor's table to eat alone."

"Harry, it's been a few days since school started, and you've known each other on the train. But hate him to such an extent? So much so that I didn't hear a word of greeting from you. ”

Harry's face flushed instantly.

He pushed his glasses helplessly, and then stammered a little, "I...... Sorry, I'm ...... I didn't expect that. But potions work, don't they? Listening to Seamus at night, his injuries were immediately fine. ”

But as he spoke, he slowly stopped.

Lin An's eyes looked at him intently, his expression was gentle, and his tone was gentle.

"Harry, I know the wizarding world is interesting, and you are constantly exploring and learning every day."

"But the first thing that struck me was the three pennies that were enclosed with the letter."

"Hogwarts says that Slytherin students are the coldest and unscrupulous."

"So can your enthusiasm really warm the people around you?"

The silver fork made a slight "click" when it made contact with the plate, and Lin An stood up.

Harry suddenly noticed that her expression was also tainted with a hint of Slytherin coldness.
