Chapter 646

Horace was holding the bottle of dragon's blood in his hand, and when he put it back in the drawer, he saw a lightning-bolt scar on Harry's forehead.

"Ho~" Slugho's eyes widened, staring at the scar on Harry's forehead. 、

After Harry covered his hair in embarrassment, Slughorn looked at Dumbledore with a shrewd look.

"Aha! do you want to convince me with this?"

"Come, Horace, and introduce you, this is Harry Potter. Dumbledore put a hand on Harry's shoulder, "Harry, this is my old colleague: Horace. Professor Slughorn. "

"You think you'll be able to convince me with that, do you? I'll tell you, Albus, the answer is no!" Slughorn walked past Harry and turned his face resolutely to the side, as if he was resisting some temptation.

"Oh, I guess I'm not done yet. Dumbledore didn't seem to care at all about Slughorn's actions, and continued, "This young man who sees through your arrangement at a glance, his name is Solim—Solim. Selwyn. "

The effect was immediate, and Slughorn instantly stopped moving as if he had been hit by a petrification spell. Then he spun around with the speed of his fat body.

"Selwyn?" Slughorn stared at Solim's face, "A Selwyn?"

As you can see, it does. "Solim owes himself.

"You can't just find someone to impersonate, do you?" Slughorn looked at Dumbledore suspiciously.

Dumbledore laughed dumbly.

Slughorn also sensed that he had said something very rude, and quickly changed the subject.

"But as far as I know......," Slughorn looked at Solim with a certain sense of scrutiny, "a family like yours wouldn't come to Hogwarts to go to school."

This old news channel really didn't say that although this kind of thing is not a secret, it is not something that ordinary wizards can know.

"But as you can see, I'm at Hogwarts right now, not just me, my sister is at Hogwarts, but she's a year below me. "

"Oh, what kind of academy are you from?"

"Both of us are Slytherins. Solim saw a satisfied look on Slughorn's face, and he continued, "But Harry, he's from Gryffindor. "

"Albus, you brought a Gryffindor to see me!"

Solim saw Harry frown slightly.

"Oh my God—look at me," Slughorn, apparently realizing that he shouldn't have said that, and he hurriedly remedied: "Look, kid, I'm not resentful of you or Gryffindor House, in fact, I have a lot of wonderful Gryffindor students. "

Slughorn didn't care if Harry liked it or not, and went to the cupboard.

"You see, these are my former students. Slughorn showed Harry the pictures.

Solim could see it clearly, and it looked like a man showing off his limited edition figure to others.

"Look, it's Dirk. Kwee, he's the head of the Elven Liaison Office, he's a Gryffindor like you, and not only that, he's a Muggle-born wizard! "

"But I don't think he has been doing this again in a while, has he?" Dumbledore interjected just in time.

Dumbledore's words silenced the already excited Slughorn.

"yes, no. It's been almost a year and no one has contacted me anymore. Slughorn stroked the frame, "It's not just him, Ambrosio. Froome - as I think you must know, he is the boss of Duke Bee, and he often gives me some new candy - for free. "

The latter sentence was addressed to Harry, and he didn't even forget to show it off.

"But why haven't your former students contacted you, Professor?" asked Harry.

Slughorn's hand paused, and then, as if out of interest, he placed the portrait back in his cupboard.

"Because I've been changing places for more than a year. Slughorn sat down on the couch - the same couch he had changed to before.

"Do you really think it's useful to hide like this? Horace?" Dumbledore still stood, his hands crossed in front of him.

"Or else?"

"You can go back to Hogwarts. Dumbledore whispered.

"Hmm...... These days, cautious wizards try not to show their heads. To take up a position at Hogwarts at this time is to publicly declare that I am a supporter of the Order of the Phoenix!, and while I believe they are brave and admirable, I am not a fan of mortality—"

"Teaching at Hogwarts doesn't mean joining the Order of the Phoenix—" Solim wanted to get things done as soon as possible so he could go back to rest.

"That's right, Professor Flitwick isn't. Harry interjected.

"Son, you don't understand. Slughorn shook his head. Naturally, he wouldn't talk about Voldemort in front of Solim and Harry.

"No, I think we know more, even more than you think. Solim said, "Hogwarts is arguably the safest place to be with the Headmaster - even though he often 'travels', the Dark Lord still won't take the idea of going there lightly." "

"Oh, is it?" Slughorn asked rhetorically, "What about the Caro siblings?"

"They got nothing. Solim said with a smile, glancing at Dumbledore in passing. "They're wasting their time at Hogwarts. And even if the headmaster was ousted at that time, they still did not dare to make any radical moves in the castle. "

"Most of the teachers weren't members of the Order of the Phoenix, and none of them were killed—unless, of course, you count Quirrell, but he deserved it, because he was working for Voldemort. "

Harry's tone couldn't help but have a hint of mockery. He really didn't like Slughorn very much, and Gryffindor had never looked down on the faint of heart.

Slughorn screamed at the name, and shouted in protest, but Harry ignored it.

"I think that as long as Dumbledore is headmaster, the school staff will be safer than most. Supposedly, Voldemort was only afraid of him alone, wasn't he?" Harry continued.

Slughorn came out of his mind for a moment, as if he was considering Harry's words.

"Well, yes, the Adversary, who can't even mention his name, has never dared to fight Dumbledore. "

He muttered reluctantly.

"I figured that since I hadn't joined the Death Eaters, the Adversary who couldn't even mention my name couldn't have considered me a friend...... In that case, I'm afraid it would be safer for me to stay with Albus...... I can't pretend that Amelia's death touched me untouched...... She has so many acquaintances and so many protections in the ministry, and she ......"

"It was a tragedy. Dumbledore said, "And you know what the Ministry of Magic is like now. "

Slughorn sat on the couch and looked at the pictures on the cupboard. _
