Chapter Twenty-Four: The Storm is Coming, and the Eventful Autumn is Coming
Professor Dumbledore almost reached for his temple, but he managed to maintain his image.
Can you not be so ruthless! Do something for your age, kid!
If I'm not mistaken, you're not even thirteen! Girls your age are discussing which senior is more handsome!
Looking at the helpless expression on Professor Dumbledore's face, Harry suddenly smiled playfully, "Just kidding, Professor Dumbledore."
If I were attacked by him, I would have captured him alive. And rest assured, I'm in control.
Seriously, I'm scared that I'm not going to do it lightly and accidentally send that disgusting Death Eater to see the Grim Reaper. ”
Professor Dumbledore sighed and shook his head:
"I don't want to mention this for now, I need to remind you of another thing. Fudge will definitely be looking for you and will interview you.
I hope you can cooperate with him, after all, he has been killing me lately, and I can't sleep well.
Of course, if the reporter who interviewed you was Rita Keyster...... Wait, you know this journalist, right? ”
"Yes." Hallie nodded, "Fred and George mentioned her to me during a break in Quidditch training.
They say that this Rita Kist is particularly fond of making things up and distorting facts. ”
"It's good to know," Professor Dumbledore continued,
"Anyway, if she's interviewing you, then you have to be careful.
As the Weasley twin brother said, she always likes to add a little bit of her own personal stuff to the report, and it will basically have a negative impact on the person being reported.
As for more, I won't warn you, I think you know better than an old man like me. ”
Seeing that Harry nodded that she would pay more attention, Professor Dumbledore waved his hand, "I don't have anything more to tell."
Are you going straight back to the Desley house now? Or do you want to live in Hogwarts for a while? ”
"Let's go back," Harley replied without thinking, "I'm the only one in school, it's boring."
I don't like the Desley's house, but at least I have my relatives there. ”
Of course, there were more important reasons, and the herbs in Hallie's pocket that were available in the Muggle world needed to be replenished.
It is much more cost-effective to buy in the Muggle world than in the wizarding world.
"Okay. Fox! Professor Dumbledore looked at the phoenix on Harry's shoulder.
At this point, Fawkes's head was pulled off Harley's shoulders, but only slightly tilted downward, so she slept unusually soundly.
Hallie rubbed the little head of the female phoenix, "Get up, Fawkes!" ”
Fawkes woke up in an instant, raised his head, and let out a low sigh of dissatisfaction.
The soft pillow made her very nostalgic, and Fawkes fell asleep directly.
So now the phoenix, who was awakened, was a little angry.
After a slight expression of displeasure, Fawkes' claws gripped Harley's shoulders tightly, and the man and bird turned into flames and disappeared into the principal's office.
Seeing where Harrie had disappeared, Professor Dumbledore let out a long sigh and pulled open the drawer beside him, pulling out a roll of parchment from it.
Lines of text are written on the parchment, connected by a line:
"Tom drank unicorn blood and failed to steal the Philosopher's Stone";
"It has been established that Tom has multiple Horcruxes and is regaining his strength";
"Death Eater Sirius Black Escapes from Azkaban";
"Discord within the Ministry of Magic, Fudge and Crouch may be at odds due to preparations for the Quidditch World Cup";
"Vagado discovers a suspected case of the Black Death, and the Potions Master has not been able to save the patient, but it is not contagious";
"There are problems with the alchemy items of many international wizarding organizations and they are inexplicably destroyed";
"Several of the monitored saints disappeared, as did the leaders of the vampires and werewolves of several countries......"
"What an eventful season!" Professor Dumbledore casually threw the parchment back on the table, his whole body slumped in exhaustion, looking at the ceiling,
"I have a hunch that the Second Wizarding War is going to break out in Britain, and something bad is going to happen in the whole world."
Whispers rang out from the portraits of the old headmasters on the walls, but soon silence returned.
……
After bringing Harley back to her room at the Desley's house, Fawkes didn't leave immediately.
She rubbed Harley's cheek, some of Harley's homemade semi-finished essential oils and hydrosols, and left a feather before leaving.
After all, these essential oils and hydrosols are all extracted from herbs, although other items will be added later, but the semi-finished products are completely herbal essences.
Fawkes was defenseless.
This made Hedwig angry, angrily screaming at the place where Fawkes had disappeared, and then flew out of the house.
Since you don't have the ability to take your anger out on Hallie or Fawkes, let's vent your emotions on the critters!
Harley smiled dumbly, put away the feather, and quickly took out her luggage and laid it out one by one.
After all, it's not August yet, and it's almost a month before school starts, and Hallie hasn't even celebrated her thirteenth birthday, so she has to stay here for a long time.
Mr. and Mrs. De Slee had already heard the movement upstairs, but they had never come up to check on it.
They've made this room off-limits, and they've always kept it the act of ignoring it and pretending it doesn't exist.
Dudley occasionally tries to come in and peek into the witch's room, but Uncle Vernon finds out in time and beats him up.
Finally, one night, Dudley found a chance to find out, only to be hit by the door, and his hand was burned fiercely.
There is no curse in the room of a witch!
……
For the next two days, Harley spent all of her time writing her dissertation on the illusion potion.
She was going to post the article to the Potions Master journal, run by the Extraordinary Apothecary Society, and deposited the patent with the society by the way.
Professor Slughorn had paved the way for himself, but he couldn't walk for Harry.
So it still takes a lot of time for Hallie herself, especially since the witch is good at killing people and setting fires, but the way doesn't give her the talent to write essays.
As for the so-called papers that Hogwarts professors ask students to write, it seems that students don't pay attention to formatting at all.
So Harley could only learn now, and kept asking the two Potions professors before and after.
Although the professors were very kind and did not have all kinds of yin and yang as some rumors, Harley was still embarrassed to see the details pointed out by the professor.

(Thanks to the nine-tailed Yanhu for the tip!) )
(ps. The male in the phoenix is the phoenix, and the female is the phoenix.) Fox is strictly an immortal, and it was a translation problem at the beginning.
However, I still write according to the phoenix in the translation, and there is actually no female phoenix. )
