Harry followed Zhou Hao and Hermione toward the C carriage, and Longbottom followed timidly at the end. The corridor was very crowded, and they saw Draco and his followers.
Draco seemed to have not seen Zhou Hao, but just stared at Harry and sneered. Harry glared back without showing any weakness.
Zhou Hao and Hermione first passed by Draco. Draco hid far away like a plague god, when Harry walked to him.
But he said, "Haha, Potter, you won't be so lucky all the time, you can wait..." A hint of pride appeared on his face, as if he was sure to win.
Harry said coldly: "I'll wait for you!" But Draco's expression made him suspicious, what conspiracy was this guy doing.
Why is his father's identity as a Death Eater exposed? He is still so free and easy? Harry is almost certain that Draco is also a Death Eater.
Because when he was in Mrs. Mojin's robe shop, he didn't even want Mrs. Mojin to roll up his sleeves, and Harry must have the mark of the Death Eater there.
But he had no evidence, and even if he had the mark of the Death Eater, it would not be possible. Professor Dumbledore knew from beginning to end that Snape was a Death Eater and did nothing.
So he had to investigate this matter himself, what was the purpose of Draco as a Death Eater to stay in the academy? Did Voldemort give him any important tasks?
The four of them soon arrived at the C carriage. Hermione opened the door at the front and found that there were already many students inside, including from various colleges.
The two Slytherins in green robes were a little eye-catching, but it doesn't matter if these two Slytherins were not Malfoy.
"Haha! See who is here? I believe everyone knows the three little heroes who fight against the mysterious man, and this Mr. Longbottom, who is very talented in herbalism." Slughorn welcomed him enthusiastically.
He was very social and greeted all four of them, but no one was left alone.
Of course, he is still particularly enthusiastic about Harry, after all, Harry is now a hot "savior star".
These people all know Zhou Hao and the other two, but Zhou Hao and the others do not know everyone. Slughorn introduced everyone one by one.
Including those two Slytherins, they were cold to Harry Feicheng, but they were a little awe-inspired towards Zhou Hao. Slytherins were all pure blood, and Zhou Hao was also a pure blood family.
So although Zhou Hao is Gryffindor, many Slytherin students have a sense of identity with him.
What surprised Harry and the others was that Ginny was also here. When she introduced her, she made a naughty face at them.
"Okay, it's so pleasant," Slughorn said satisfiedly after the meal.
"A chance to know you all more. Give it, get a napkin. I brought my lunch myself, and I remember the food on the food truck's licorice wand was always too strong, a poor elderly man whose digestive system couldn't stand these things... Come on some quail, Belby?"
Belby was surprised and immediately accepted something like half a cold quail.
Marcos Belby is the nephew of Damocles Belby. Damocles is the inventor of the wolf poison potion. The invention of this potion gives the werewolf the opportunity to choose a camp.
Slughorn said: "I was just telling this young Marcos that I had the honor of teaching his uncle Damocles."
Slughorn said to Harry and Neville, who were passing a basket of bread rolls: "A great wizard, very outstanding, his Merlin medal is definitely worthy of it. Do you often see your uncle, Marcos?"
Unfortunately, Marcos had just eaten a big bite of quail, and he was eager to answer Slughorn's question. He swallowed too quickly and his face turned into a pig's liver, choking and speechless.
"Cough-free." Slughorn pointed at Belby with his wand and said calmly, Belby's trachea seemed to be unblocked at once.
"No... I didn't see him very much." Belby said gasping, his tears choked out.
"Yes, of course, I dare say he must be very busy." Slughorn said to Belby inquiringly, "I think he must have put in a lot of effort to invent the wolf poison potion?"
"I think so..." Belby said, not daring to eat quail any more until he was convinced that Slughorn had finished his interrogation.
"Well... that's right, he doesn't have a good relationship with my dad, so I actually don't know much..."
After he said this, a trace of disdain flashed in Slughorn's eyes, and he immediately diverted his attention.
Slughorn looked at people, either because of excellent talent or strong connections. Obviously, Belby's talent was not good. Now he knew that Belby was not close to his famous uncle.
Such a person has no value to him, so he will no longer be interested in him.
Slughorn turned to Zhou Hao again and said, "Shafik and Granger, your talents are amazing. You actually practiced Animagus in the fifth grade, and Shafik's O.W.L test scores are actually twelve excellent? To be honest, this is the second time I have met such an excellent student in decades of teaching. Of course, Miss Granger is also great."
Hermione sighed in her heart. If it weren't for Zhou Hao, her results would have been amazing, but they would have been overshadowed in front of Zhou Hao.
"Shafik, your grade reminds me of someone... Well, let's talk about you, Shafik, I heard you solve the problem of the Blood Curse Orc?"
"The blood cursed orcs are very rare. I have also studied them back then, but unfortunately there is no way. I am very curious about how Shafik did it? Of course, there is no need to say here, there will be a chance in the future!" Slughorn said with a smile.
Zhou Hao pretended to be curious: "Is the person you are talking about Voldemort?"
Slughorn changed his face: "Shh! You can't say that name!"
The air seemed to have suddenly solidified, and the needle fell to the sound of it. Voldemort's terrifying deterrence made everyone silent.
Zhou Hao said disdainfully: "Sorry, professor, I have never been afraid of him, so I will not shy away from speaking. If you feel afraid, I can leave here!"
Slughorn said with a look of ugly expression: "I don't mean that. Do you know why you can't say that name? It's because after saying it, his lackeys - those Death Eaters - will come here. This is not something Hogwarts and the others have no scruples."
The students around him were so scared that their faces looked like earth, as if they were about to be killed by the Death Eater in the next moment.
Harry said calmly: "Professor, we are not afraid of the Death Eaters and Voldemort. Last time Zhou Hao led us five to fight against six Death Eaters, and we won. Later, we captured a total of eight Death Eaters, including Lucius Malfoy, and Zhou Hao defeated three of them alone."
This record is among the best among Aurors, so although Harry's expression is calm, he is very proud in his heart.
