Voldemort is a hopelessly bad wizard, no doubt about that, but he occasionally does good things without his knowledge, like now, he saves a pair of red-haired brothers from their vacation—

It may not be rigorous to say that, but as far as the current situation is concerned, he has saved at least half of it.

Then why couldn't the remaining half be saved? That might be down to the bad mood and 'severely injured' Professor Snape tortured the poor little wizards at the final exams.

The two brothers Fred and George's 'final exam destruction plan' failed completely, but they destroyed their own final exams by accident—

The bright red and terrifying 'T' in the Potions section on the transcript made their mother, Ms. Molly, very curious about how hard she had to work to get a grade like a 'troll', so she planned to take a good vacation during the holidays. Study the two brothers, by physical means.

The bad news was learned when they were happily eating at the dinner table, and a roaring letter appeared there out of place, grinning and mad at them - something that everyone talked about for a long time.

Fred and George are famous now. They were almost dropped out of school after just one year of school. They got T in Potions, and they also received an 'extremely scary' roaring letter. I didn't know the letter contained a thick-skinned mutant mother. The roar of the lion is still the roar of the violent Giant King Kong, in short, it is quite scary.

The unreliable great prophet Professor Trelawney has a famous saying that is very suitable for the current situation of the twins: Luck is always silent, and misfortune is always in pairs.

There is something even more terrifying than Ms. Molly's physics research that will torment the two brothers, oh, poor they only got the news at this time.

"What?!" George's eyes widened, his hands grabbed his messy red hair, and he looked unbelievable, "Merlin's old beard! You must be joking!"

He looked around and found that everyone was serious, only Fred was dumbfounded, and George swore he saw his expression through Fred's face.

Anna looked serious and shook her head, "Unfortunately, this matter has already been arranged, plus Professor Snape was seriously injured, it's time to take care of it... Although Professor McGonagall also gave you a T It's a pity that this happened, but she still wants you to complete this summer volunteering activity."

George racked his brains trying to find a reason for himself not to participate in the activity, "Didn't you say that my magic was violent? Alas, I feel exhausted and have a splitting headache now, and it may take several months to heal!"

"Poor George, if you hadn't just killed a whole chicken alive, I would have thought you were seriously ill," snorted Charlie, who was standing by eating apples. Madam Pomfrey, who went out, said that you are fine, there are very few little wizards as healthy as you."

"I have a mental disorder!" George muttered to refute his brother, which was true. What he saw in the illusion made him have nightmares for several days.

"Mom said it'd be good to have a fight," Charlie didn't believe it.

Fred, who was sitting on the wooden chair, looked blank. He felt that he had been through too much in the past few days. If he knew that he was preparing for the final exam, why would he take shortcuts? Look, this time, there are no bottoms left.

"What kind of voluntary activity is cleaning the house for the potions professor? We're not going to serve the urinal to that black bat, are we?"

George trembled, "No, I don't want it, I'd rather take care of the fire dragon, and then be eaten by a leg."

Charlie, who was watching the excitement, smacked his lips, rolled his eyes, and revealed a wicked smile, "Not only that, I heard that he will also help him wash his socks. The wool socks must be washed by hand. Guys, when the time comes, come back and leave. If I stay away, the smell may be more memorable than dragon feces."

"Wait, how can it be that simple," Percy, who usually never jokes, couldn't help but flicker with a serious face, "and also assist Professor Snape in various potion experiments, and drink the experiments he made. medicine."

"The little wizard who helped him test the medicine last time still spit out slugs from time to time!" Percy and Charlie looked at each other, smiled heartily, and then high-fives.

Anna looked at them helplessly, "It's not so scary, our dean is generally a good person, and this volunteer activity will only last for a week, then I will also help, maybe the work will be finished soon... "

"Hey! You spoil them too much, Anna," Charlie shook his head disapprovingly. "You're like our other Aunt Muriel who's turned a corner! The kids don't get a workout in the storm like this, they The wings will be underdeveloped!"

I don't know why Anna, who suddenly became Aunt Muriel, couldn't help laughing and crying, "Actually, I have my share in this matter, no matter what..."

"You are really our savior!" Before Anna could finish speaking, Fred held her hand excitedly, as if tears would come out of her eyes in the next second.

Our great Professor Trelawney also said such a famous saying: Sometimes the misfortune is too much to let you find the shadow of luck in it.

Fred suddenly felt that even the terrible thing of going to clean up the cave for the old bat made sense, and he even began to look forward to it.

"It's so loyal, Anna!" There was a spark of hope in George's eyes again.

"I think they should be educated..." Charlie shouted, but was quickly muffled by the twins' voices.

"Then let's meet at Spider End Alley," Anna smiled.

Spider End Alley, you can tell by the name that it is a place with stories. The ubiquitous web is densely woven, and all those who are born, old, sick, and died, all joys, sorrows, and joys, are netted, and those who are stuck on the web are forever indulged in everything in the past, no matter what. Can't break free.

Anna didn't want to spy on the privacy of her dean, nor did she want to explore the greasy secrets that the old bat had hidden for many years, nor did she want to go to someone's house to rudely find some old melons to eat— Industrious Anna is just looking forward to the upcoming labor...

Ahem, well, maybe a little curious... but then again, who doesn't want to see what the lair of the most famous double agent in Hogwarts history, the magical world of love, the old bat, the potions master, looks like how? At least Anna wanted to find out.

"Headmaster Dumbledore is back! Oh! So much has happened - he's finally back!" Voices full of activity came from far and near from the corridor, and Lee Jordan yelled into the school hospital, and on the way he Couldn't resist sharing this news with you all.

"Professor McGonagall said that the school leaving banquet can be held today—the next day after the banquet, we will have a holiday!" Li Tan Hei's face was filled with an excited smile.

"This is the best news I've received today," Fred clutched his chest, but he suddenly thought that going back would mean meeting the angry Ms. Molly, so he suddenly paused, "Well, maybe only It's just plain good news."

"What are you talking about, Fred! That's the best news of course! Hurry up! We'd better go to the auditorium now, everyone can't wait to get there—"

Li Jordan waved his arms excitedly and said incoherently, "Hey, this is the first time we have attended the school leaving banquet. It means the transition from freshmen to seniors. When we meet again next time, I will also become a senior!"

Charlie, who was about to graduate, couldn't help laughing, "Oh yeah, you'll soon realize that senior brother isn't that easy, and after two days of excitement, you'll get lost in all the funny chaos that freshmen make. , until graduation can be liberated.”

Fred was silent for a moment, then touched his face, "Aren't you alluding to something?"

"Merlin's beard, how is that possible, my poor brother," Charlie annoyed Fred with an exaggerated and sarcastic tone, and looked at him with pity, "what made you so eager to take your seat?"

Fred's deflation made Percy laugh, which made Fred feel a little embarrassed, so he touched Percy's arm, "Hey, what about your girlfriend, Percy? You don't call her. Together?"

"What?" Percy stopped smiling, his ears began to turn suspiciously red, "Pe... Peneno is not my girlfriend! Not yet!" He suddenly realized something, and quickly covered his mouth.

"Oh—" Charlie narrowed his eyes, looking like a weasel who saw eggs, "Penello? Is that Penello from Ravenclaw? Oh, Percy, why didn't you tell me if there was a girl you liked, at this time? Isn't that what the old man is talking about?"

"No, it's not..." Percy began to be at a loss, and Anna felt a little sympathetic to him, so she couldn't help but restrain the curvature of the corners of her mouth, turning from a laugh to a smile.

Everyone laughed and went to the auditorium. When they were approaching the door, Anna, who was a member of Slytherin, had to separate from the Gryffindor in advance, because her close roommate, the sharp-eyed Belinda, saw it at a glance. Because of this Slytherin who did not go to decorate the auditorium.

"Why do you always hang out with those Gryffindors?" Belinda pulled Anna over and lowered her voice, "Be careful, I heard that some people are already looking at you...cough, I don't care about you. , I'm just afraid that you will bring trouble to me!"

"Is there such a thing? Who is it?" Anna became interested, not knowing who was so clueless.

Belinda raised her chin behind Anna, "Look, Maeve Farley, pureblood, seems to be winning people over for the next prefect recently, she's going to be fifth grade soon, and one is in third grade. Grade sister Gemma Farley."

Anna turned around and saw the blond girl who was surrounded by the crowd at a glance. She had high cheekbones and no flesh on her cheeks. Although she was beautiful, every frown and frown made people feel like they had ulterior motives.

Maeve glanced at Anna from the corner of her eyes. She raised her eyebrows, showed a smile, and waved her hand slightly, as if she was greeting Anna.

Anna nodded at her, smiled back at the same time, and then turned around quickly, "How did you say I offended her?"

Belinda snorted twice, with an expression of 'you don't understand college politics at all', "You are a Muggle born, so you offend her, most of Slytherin College is pure blood and mixed blood, so Come on, you are the only Muggle born this year, and Maeve must establish a common enemy for everyone in order to win over most of the Slytherins..."

"The small group becomes united only when it isolates others, and that common enemy can't be too strong, but it can't be weak, and there must be unforgivable mistakes, by the way, playing with Gryffindor Together is an unforgivable mistake."

"So, I'm the lucky one?" Anna shrugged, "But isn't the matter of selecting prefects directly assigned by Headmaster Dumbledore? Is Maeve's wooing really useful?"

"A large part of the selection of prefects at Slytherin is operated by the board of directors. This has been a tradition for many years. Dumbledore chose to delegate power over these small things to silence the board. My dad said that was very smart. practice."

"Okay, then I should really cherish this short rest time, and then face bigger challenges." Thinking of this, there is still a lot to do. There are several big world branch lines that have not been completed. The spy also has to face the crisis of college life.

"It's good if you know..." Belinda put a green ribbon on the window, "Okay, this is the last..."

As soon as Belinda's voice fell, Dumbledore appeared at the front of the auditorium. I don't know if it was a coincidence, or this old bee had been eavesdropping on everyone's speech.

He changed into a velvet robe embroidered with stars today, which looked very dreamy. The scene became more lively with his appearance. In a sea of ​​joy, Belinda pulled Anna to find a place at the Slytherin long table. Sit down.

Dumbledore stood in the middle of the stage, then looked behind him first to make sure that the professors were all seated where they should be—

He took two more glances at Professor Jacob, who had no arms or legs, and was a little relieved, because at this time the professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts is usually absent, but today he could finally add an extra bench.

Then Dumbledore looked to the far right and looked at Snape. The two made eye contact for 30 seconds. Snape nodded, and Dumbledore also nodded. Both of them showed serious expressions. expression.

"Quiet! Quiet!" Professor McGonagall walked in through the small door and greeted the noisy little sparrows to be quiet, "The banquet is about to start... Hey! George... or Fred, whoever it is, give I put down what you have in your hands! Don't try to set off fireworks in the auditorium!" She sternly stopped the twins who were about to cause trouble.

Dumbledore laughed and pressed his hand down, looking like he was about to say something, everyone gave the old man face, and soon calmed down, the children stared at the headmaster, Slytherin's long table It is constantly firing a line of sight full of expectations.

The reason is very simple. Slytherin has the highest college score, and they are about to be praised by the headmaster, and most importantly, won the college cup that represents honor. There are already many college cups in the exhibition hall of the Slytherin lounge. But it's not enough, it's better to have enough of this stuff to overflow.

"Another year has passed!" Dumbledore said in a sighing tone, "This year, everyone has learned new knowledge and mastered new skills. I am sincerely happy for everyone, and please give them applause! Cheers to your smart little brain!"

Everyone clapped and shouted in unison, and some Gryffindors even blew the rogue whistle, which led to Professor McGonagall's death stare.

"Of course, all kinds of new things have happened in the school this year, some good and some bad..." Speaking of which, Dumbledore obviously felt that everyone was not as excited as before, and even the atmosphere began to slump. Influenced by Professor Snape's injury incident, many people are watching Snape secretly, as well as the comeback of the palpitating mysterious man.

Three days ago, the Daily Prophet published a message "Shock! Hogwarts professor attacked by the deceased? " was published in an inconspicuous position at the back of the sports section, the title was vague, and the author was narrating the whole thing in a humorous style. The man who had been dead for many years suddenly appeared and instructed the big squid to attack the Slytherin lounge, and then escaped. Knocked down an in-service professor S on the way... This is simply more absurd than a male fire dragon laying eggs.

More people think that this is Hogwarts' excuse for the broken windows in the lounge due to the castle's disrepair.

But the next day, another report suddenly appeared in the headlines and attracted everyone's attention. It was a new report by famous journalist Rita Skeeter, "Is Sirius Really Guilty? 》

'…According to the testimony of Hogwarts Professor S, he was attacked a few days ago by Pettigrew. Peter, who had been dead for many years, and in the midst of his resistance, he suddenly discovered that Peter had a Death Eater symbol on his arm…According to us As you know, Pettigrew Peter died eight years ago in a battle with Sirius Black, and his mother received only the son's remaining finger and a cold commendation medal...'

'And now, we have to wonder if Pettigrew Peter is really dead. '

'...If it's just the words of Professor S, it's certainly not enough to prove that Pettigrew. Peter somehow survived back then, but now the situation is that last night, a man who claimed to be Pettigrew. Peter appeared in the magic. In the office of Ministry staff M, he tried to threaten Mr M and fled shortly after Mr M sounded the alarm, when there were four witnesses including the elite Auror Mr Moody...'

'...Elite Auror Moody said that his prosthetic eyes were able to identify the prisoner's disguise, but there was no trace of disguise on this petit star, or the criminal used more sophisticated magic from nowhere, Or is he really *resurrected* like a fake Pettigrew. Peter...'

'...In this case, the question arises. If Pettigrew Peter is not dead and can prove his identity as a Death Eater - then was Sirius Black wrongly framed? '

'Is someone disguising Pettigrew Peter? Or was it the inaction of the Ministry of Magic's Law Enforcement Division that sent an innocent person to jail without investigation? We desperately need to know the answer. '

'The current Minister of Magic, Ms. Millison Bagno, said that the Auror Department has been organized to investigate the matter... But the deadline for Ms. Bagno to step down is getting shorter and shorter. Can we be completely buried in this matter? Knowing the truth before countless piles of documents is a very uncertain issue, I hope the Auror investigation department can improve its efficiency and let the truth be revealed...'

Once this article was published, it was tasted differently by different people.

In the article, a Hogwarts professor S is of course referring to Snape. In the past two days, he has received countless letters from various Death Eaters, all of which are similar in content. Pettigrew Peter is really not dead? Lord Dark Lord resurrected? What are we doing again?

One of them, Comrade Ma, even had more than 20 letters, which made Snape's head hurt. Burning these letters almost turned his office into a bacon processing factory, so he let Pettigrew. Peter went to explain it to Malfoy himself.

Snape rubbed his sore wrist with a lingering fear, glanced at Dumbledore, and then quickly looked elsewhere.

"I know you're a little worried—something," Dumbledore paused for a moment, "when you stumble upon the prospect of being bitten by a vicious dog in the future, but you don't know exactly what day, you're going to live every day with anxiety. , worrying about which wild dog's territory you accidentally broke into - these are normal."

A few Hufflepuffs laughed, and it soon became clear that Dumbledore was comparing Voldemort to a dingo.

"Since you already know that you will be bitten by a dog, why do you worry about it every day? Even if you worry about it—you will still be bitten, so why don't you live with confidence—"

Dumbledore waved his large sleeves, "Today is a good day, you have a good day, and then there is a whole summer vacation time for you to play with confidence, throw away all knowledge so that you can use your brains. Getting pretty and empty! Not to mention there's a big meal waiting for you soon! Oh! And...what else-"

The atmosphere at the scene began to become lively again. Of course, the most supporter was Gryffindor Academy. It was impossible for them to win the Academy Cup today, but they were still cooperating with President Dumbledore. "And the Academy Cup!" Everyone shouted loudly, It seems to be venting all the emotions.

"Yes, there is also the Academy Cup!" Dumbledore stroked his beard, "According to the past tradition, the Academy Cup will be awarded here, let's talk about the specific points, this year's competition is very fierce, Hedge Patch 352, Gryffindor 358, Ravenclaw 426, Slytherin 452!"

Huge cheers erupted from the long Slytherin table. Marcus Flint tapped the table rhythmically, while his friend Blow Fudge tapped the goblet implicitly. The blond-haired Ai Fury made a trumpet-like roar with his hand around his mouth, and Anna and Belinda also roared twice with the atmosphere.

"Congratulations—Slytherin Academy!" Dumbledore waved the wand in his hand, and countless green glitters exploded in the air, forming the Slytherin Academy emblem and falling on everyone, and then quickly disappeared. not see.

The Slytherin children were very excited. Although they had won the Academy Cup many times, they had a new feeling every time.

On the stage, Professor Snape also received congratulations from other professors. He humbly said that it was nothing, but he just won the Academy Cup five times in a row.

The other academies also clapped politely, even the Gryffindor academy, which did not deal with Slytherin the most, clapped at the most, and at most, Merlin was blinded.

"Usually at this time, I will say aloud and start eating, and then everyone can enjoy the food happily, but this year, after congratulating Slytherin Academy, we have to congratulate another academy."

Dumbledore's words made the auditorium quiet, and everyone was a little overwhelmed. According to the score, Slytherin's victory was clear, and there should be no such thing as a split.

Anna touched her chin and thought for a while, "Hufflepuff?"

"Hufflepuff Academy!" Dumbledore said the name of the academy almost at the same time as Anna.

"When the water leak occurred in the lounge of Slytherin Academy, the Hufflepuffs who were also in the basement lounge did not choose to take refuge directly, but actively went to the place where the leak occurred to save people, according to Madam Pomfrey of the school hospital. Statistically, most drownings get their help—"

"They often leave quickly after helping others, and then hide in the crowd... I don't know if you have noticed, but in our daily life, we always get help from the Hufflepuffs. They are kind, friendly, and helpful. Move books to you when you don't have your textbooks, stuff you two sesame seeds when you're hungry, or kindly wake you up when you're dozing off in class..."

Everyone looked at each other, eh? It seems like this, even Marcus Flint couldn't help but nodded slightly. He was caught accidentally forgetting the broomstick in the corridor during a night tour, and in the end it was Hedge, who was mocked by him. Prefect Patch brought it back, making him very embarrassed.

The Hufflepuffs bowed their heads a little, thinking maybe they weren't doing so well—they were always too modest.

Dumbledore smiled kindly, "Hufflepuff children usually don't have a competitive mentality, they always talk about lying flat, and occasionally a little motivation is only a short-lived, lazy and determined to be an ordinary person, occasionally I can't help but go to the kitchen to steal food... Ah, these are all shortcomings that may be improved in the future, but today-"

"They can be rewarded for their enthusiasm and kindness, plus one hundred percent, UU reading www.uukanshu.com let us congratulate - Hufflepuff!"

Dumbledore's voice fell, and the audience began to cheer for Hufflepuff Academy. Whether it was Gryffindor, Ravenclaw, or even Slytherin Academy, a huge voice broke out. How to say it, This is simply hopeful.

Hufflepuff's children covered their mouths with excitement. Nymphadora Tonks shook Shirley next to her and let Shirley pinch herself to see if she was dreaming. Cedric was so excited that he blushed to his feet, screaming silently in his mouth, and several little badgers beside him were shouting that Merlin had appeared.

Ms. Sprout, the dean of Hufflepuff, who was sitting on the stage, was silent and did not move. It was not until Professor McGonagall next to her patted her shoulder to congratulate her that she did not know when the lady's eyes were full. Tears, Snape handed out the tissue for the first time, for the sake of Professor Sprout's giving him too many magic ingredients.

The scene seemed to turn into a game of cheering for Hufflepuff, Gryffindor and Slytherin again, and the two academies wanted to compete at any time.

Maybe it was because they didn't want to owe others favors. Slytherin Academy really cheered with the energy of drinking magic milk powder when they were young. Gryffindor Academy couldn't see that Slytherin's voice surpassed itself, and finally used those quilts. The fireworks that Professor Ge has banned.

"Bang! Boom! Bam!"

In the midst of the excitement, Dumbledore clapped his hands, half of the decorations on the scene turned yellow and black, which were the theme colors of Hufflepuff Academy, and a little badger also appeared on the Slytherin snake logo next to it.

Now even Dumbledore had a hard time quieting the frenzied auditorium, so he roared:

"Start! The banquet begins!"
