The Strongest Badger at Hogwarts

Chapter 604: newborn

Harry entered the carriage under the leadership of John and found that there were not many people invited by Professor Slughorn.

At this moment, everyone was looking at Link, who was entangled by Neville, with a smile on their faces.

In the main seat next to Link, there was a half-bald old man sitting.

The old man also noticed Harry at the moment, he got up and waved:

"Look who's here! Harry Potter, our saviour! I'm so glad you're here, come and sit beside me!"

This is probably Professor Slughorn.

With that in mind, Harry was greeted warmly by the old man's side and sat down, with an embarrassed smile on his face the whole time.

Because the black boy sitting across from him was looking at him contemptuously with those high corners of his eyes.

Especially when Professor Slughorn called him the Star of Salvation, the other party even sneered contemptuously.

Harry knew exactly where the hostility came from, because then, it was a Slytherin, a Slytherin of his age.

They have fought from the first grade to now, and if the other party can give him a good face, there will be ghosts.

Sadly, there are not a few Slytherins in this carriage.

But Harry knew no less than four, and compared to their Gryffindors, they were pitiful.

This group of people is now unabashedly exuding hostility towards him.

It made Harry feel like it was hard to breathe.

Professor Slughorn clearly saw this.

But he just smiled lightly and said:

"Okay, everyone is here, so let me introduce you! You may all know Harry Potter, so I won't say more. I'll start from here first..."

He pointed to the row of Slytherins, "Brace Shabini, his mother was a pretty attractive lady..."

The black boy got up and saluted the crowd.

"This is Cormac McLaggen, his father is the director of the Apparition Test Center at the Ministry of Magic, a very responsible officer, and once a student of mine!  …"

"This is Marcos Belby..."

"This charming young lady is Motley Mona..."

...

After introducing nearly ten people in one breath, Slughorn paused and pointed his finger at Link on the other side.

Harry noticed that Slughorn looked radiant at this moment, and even his pale beard was trembling incessantly, expressing his joy.

"I don't need to say more about this one? Link Foley! You should understand from the name alone, this is an amazing person!"

Slughorn said brightly.

And when he finished speaking, there was a deafening applause in the small carriage.

Neville's whole body turned red, and he clapped so hard that he even stood up.

But he wasn't the hardest working of them all.

The one who was most excited was the black boy named Bryce Shabini.

No, it's not just him.

All the Slytherins were extremely excited.

That pure, fanatical adoration was nothing compared to their previous contempt for Harry!

Link raised his hand with a smile on his face.

The applause of the audience instantly disappeared as if someone had flipped a switch.

But this did not extinguish the excitement of the crowd.

Everyone was looking at Link with incomparable excitement, even Slughorn.

Under everyone's attention, Link slowly got up and said to Blaise Shabini who was in front of him:

"Your name is Shabini?"

Hearing this, Blaise Chabiny seemed to be a soldier who heard the officer's call, stood up in a flash, straightened his back, and said in a trembling voice:

"Your Excellency! Just call me Blaise!"

"Hehehe-"

Link smiled, and clapped while laughing, "What a good name, you left a deep impression on me, I will remember you, Shabby... Ni!"

[Recommendation, Mimi reading and chasing books is really easy to use, download it here and you can try it. 】

After speaking, Link smiled even more happily.

That smile was genuine joy.

Seeing this, Bryce Shabini was so excited that his entire face flushed red.

This is not an easy task for him.

After all, his dark complexion made it difficult for other expressions to appear on his face.

The rest of the Slytherins also looked at Bryce Shabini with admiration.

They all felt that this was Link's admiration for Bryce Shabini.

Some people even had a look of jealousy in their eyes.

Think about it, what an honor to be remembered by the famous Link Foley?

Unlike this group of people, Harry's expression looked a little weird.

Based on how well he knew Link, he felt that Link's previous smile was more like a mockery.

It's as if the presence of Bryce Shabini was a joke, a huge joke that Link couldn't help but want to laugh at.

Shabini is also really funny.

His mother was a famous widow of European fame.

The lady is said to have a suffocating face.

But what really made her a household name across Europe is that she was widowed seven times, and each of her deceased husbands left her a large inheritance.

After a rigorous investigation by the Ministry of Magic, she ruled out the murder of her seven husbands in order to gain the family fortune.

But this bizarre experience still made her a 'mother mantis'.

It stands to reason that with such a family background, Shabini should be worthy of mercy.

After all, he has no father.

But Shabini felt nothing wrong.

Even he is often complacent, showing off the family property his mother has won for him.

This is kind of annoying.

Thinking of this, Harry couldn't help but want to laugh.

He turned his head away hard to keep himself from laughing, but just happened to meet Slughorn's line of sight.

Slughorn winked at him, which gave Harry the feeling that he had read all of his mind.

"Okay, a chance to get to know you all a little better," Slughorn said with a smile, turning his head. "Here, get a napkin. I brought my own lunch, I remember the licorice wands on the food trucks always smelled too much, and a poor old man whose digestive system can't handle it... some quail, Belby?"

Hearing that, the boy named Belby who was sitting in the corner was obviously surprised, but he still accepted the half that looked like a cold quail.

"Link, you may not know this young Marcus very well, but you definitely know his Uncle Damocles," Slughorn gave Link the other half of the quail, Harry noted. , Link's half quail was significantly larger than Bell's. "Excellent wizard, excellent, and he definitely deserves the Merlin Medal. Do you see your uncle often, Marcos?"

Eating quail is definitely a technical job.

The meat of these little creatures is rich in texture and aroma, but at the same time, their bones are small and dense.

If you are inexperienced when enjoying this delicious dish, it is easy to eat in a mess, or even get stuck in the throat with bones.

Marcos Belby obviously has no experience in this area.

When Slughorn turned the subject back to him, he was biting **** the quail's rib. Slughorn's words made his nerves tense again, which directly caused his face to turn suddenly. It became the color of pig liver, and it was too choked to speak.

"Ankexiao."

Link pointed at Belby with his wand, and said calmly that Belby's airway seemed to be clear all at once.

Bellby, who was relieved, choked out tears, and said with a heavy breath:

"No... I don't see him much."

Link put down his wand and said lightly:

"You should visit him more, your uncle is quite skilled in potions. He invented and improved the famous wolf poison potion. This invention has benefited countless people who were accidentally infected with the werewolf virus, and also allowed him to obtain Got a Merlin Badge."

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the carriage looked sideways.

It was the first time they had heard that Belby's uncle had such outstanding achievements.

You must know that for so many years, Belbic has never mentioned this matter once!

The expressions of Harry and Neville also changed drastically.

You must know that Professor Lupin is also a werewolf.

If it weren't for the wolf poison and Link's help, he probably wouldn't be able to return to human society until now!

Facing the complicated gazes of everyone, Belby shook his head with a wry smile:

"Well...that's right, he doesn't have a good relationship with my dad, so I actually haven't seen him much..."

Belby's voice got lower and lower and eventually disappeared.

Because in the middle of his words, Slughorn began to sneer, and turned to look at McLaggen on the other side.

"What about you, Cormac," said Slughorn, "I happen to know that you see your Uncle Tiberius a lot, because he has a picture of the two of you there... let me see, in Great pictures of the gigantic tail hunting in Norfolk, isn't it?"

"Oh, yeah, that was fun,"

McLaggen said brightly, "We also went with Betty Higgins and Rufus Scrimgeour—of course, this happened during his lifetime."

"Ah, you still know Betty and Rufus?"

Slughorn said with some emotion, took a plate of pie to share with everyone, and somehow missed Belby, "It's a pity that Rufus is dead. It's really a pity, he A very competent Auror Chief of Staff. You mean that? Link, as one of the current members of the Tripartite Committee of the Ministry of Magic, you should be well aware of this."

Hearing that, Link pondered for a moment and said:

"He's a pure soldier."

As soon as he said this, Slughorn nodded deeply. He seemed excited, and even his eyes were red.

Seeing this, Shabini and others in the carriage also bowed their heads in silence.

Only John is different.

Hearing this, the corner of the guy's mouth rose up uncontrollably.

He is too clear.

Link's assessment of Scrimgeour's so-called 'pure soldier' ​​is by no means positive.

It must be known that the Auror troops led by Scrimgeour had thought a lot about attacking the Hunters of the Foley family.

It can be said that they are absolute enemies.

That's why John didn't have the slightest affection for Scrimgeour.

And what about the final result?

Isn't Scrimgeour dead?

Even the Auror troop he was proud of had now become a minion in Link's hands!

No one at the scene noticed John's expression.

Slughorn also recovered quickly, wiped the faint tears from the corners of his eyes, and said to Neville:

"Then it's Mr Longbottom's turn. Oh! Longbottom, I think of your grandma when I hear that last name. I taught her for a year when I first became Professor of Potions at Hogwarts. , she was so beautiful and graceful back then! How is her body now?"

"Thank you for your concern. Grandma's health is very good, but it's a little inconvenient to move."

"It's a problem with older people. It's not just her, I'm acting worse than her now. But that's okay, we're wizards and there's a way to fix this."

Slughorn's expression suddenly became solemn, "I'm sorry about your parents, they are all excellent and kind people. I sincerely wish them a speedy recovery."

Hearing this, Neville was a little moved, took a deep breath and said:

"Thank you, I'll tell them."

Slughorn nodded in satisfaction and said:

"That's great. But I'm a little confused now because I've heard some rumors about you before I came here, and they all say you're a little... uh... a little shy. But from what I've seen today , but things are not what they say. Is this someone slandering you?"

"No, Professor Slughorn, they didn't judge me as a slander. I was indeed timid and cowardly, and I liked to cry. But that was me before, and now I am different!"

"Oh? How do you say this?"

"It's all Link's credit! Link gave me a new life, I..."

Neville choked.

But even so, he still recounted what happened to him during this time.

That sincere feeling made Harry's eyes turn red even after hearing it for the second time.

Everyone else was also moved.

At this moment, the door on the other side of the carriage suddenly opened.

Emily, who was dressed in black like Link, walked in.

As she put a few pumpkin pots on the dining table, she said with a smile:

"Sorry, I'm late, did I miss something?"

"You've missed a lot." Link said with a smile, "Neville has been given a new life, and he just kept talking about working hard and becoming better to reward me. Seriously, Neville, you didn't. It has to be. But I still welcome you to work at the Ministry of Magic after graduation, and I welcome talents like you."

As soon as these words came out, Shabini and others on the opposite side cast envious glances at Neville~lightnovelpub.net~ Link's words were equivalent to giving Neville a qualification.

This is a privilege that most students don't even think about.

Slughorn also looked at Link in surprise.

He didn't seem to understand why Link would say such a thing.

After all, in his opinion, Neville did not seem to have inherited the excellent talents of the Longbottom family.

"Professor Slughorn, don't you know?" Link said in a surprised tone, "Neville has an amazing talent in herbal medicine, and Dean Sprout has always been very optimistic about him. ."

"So that's the case! This is the first time I've heard of it. It looks like I'll have to take a good look at you in the future, Neville, you must know that children who can learn herbal medicine well are generally not weak in potions. ."

Slughorn suddenly realized, glanced at Neville, who was full of energy, and then said, "But compared to these, I would actually like to hear about your experience, Link, you are definitely a legend among legends. , and the things that happened to you must be very bizarre, right?"

Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up instantly.

As a Hogwarts legend, Link's story has long been known at Hogwarts.

Even because of Ron's relationship with his two irrelevant older brothers, many unreliable magical versions have been derived.

But everyone still likes to hear Link speak.

Looking at everyone's expectant eyes, Link also cleared his throat with a smile, as if he was about to speak.
