According to Ron's usual habit, after escaping from death, he usually can't help but talk about his desires, and he can't wait to tell everyone about these experiences in an embellished way.
But maybe because he was really frightened this time, he didn't even mention what happened that day to anyone.
It is worth mentioning that although Harry always behaves worryingly in terms of the overall situation and often puts himself in dangerous situations because of his impulsive temper, it has to be said that probably because of the aura of the protagonist, the savior. Xing's luck is always good in critical moments, or in other words, his ability to adapt to situations is far beyond ordinary people.
Take this crisis for example.
According to Harry's description, the trio managed to escape the close protection of the Order of the Phoenix members and had a great time playing in Diagon Alley for most of the day. It was not until dinner time that they reluctantly returned to the wand shop.
Obviously, they didn't know it at that time, but they had become easy prey in the eyes of Bellatrix and Dolohov.
What followed was just as Glenn guessed. The three of them were defenseless and were easily knocked unconscious by two top Death Eaters without any resistance. This process hardly attracted anyone's attention except for Mundungus. That poker friend Wilson.
When Harry and the others regained consciousness, they had been taken to a strange manor. They found out from the conversations among the Death Eaters that it was the residence of the Malfoy family.
Although Lord Lucius had completely lost Voldemort's trust, a lean camel was bigger than a horse, and the manor that the family had worked hard on for many years was still a rare stronghold for Death Eaters.
With Bellatrix, a torture madman, present, even if there was no information that needed to be obtained, she could not stop her from delivering a "Heart-breaking" package to the Salvation Trio.
Lucius, whose status plummeted, became the lowest-level worker and had to take on the guarding work that should have belonged to Peter Pettigrew.
Due to his lack of merit, Wormtail, who betrayed his siblings and friends, was not even rescued in a large-scale prison break.
It was at this opportunity that Harry used his sharp tongue to temporarily obtain the wand from Lucius, and took the opportunity to send a distress message to the Order of the Phoenix.
Next, he was taken to the Ministry of Magic, past the place where Tonks was attacked in the dream, and all the way to the Prophecy Hall of the Department of Mysteries.
The glass ball containing Trelawney's prophecy was placed in row 97. The Death Eaters escorted Harry to that area, threatening Hermione and Ron, and ordered Harry to take down the prophecy ball with his own hands.
Harry tried to refuse at first, but Ron was hit with the Cruciatus Curse in vain.Using the hostage as a threat really allowed Bellatrix to play it clearly.
Under Dolohov's order, after Harry got the prophecy ball, Lucius stepped forward and planned to take it from Harry.
This was exactly the opportunity that the two of them had discussed beforehand.
Harry took the opportunity to knock down Lucius and get his wand again. He raised his hand and shot a stun spell at the old Crabbe and Goyle who controlled Ron and Hermione.
Of course, at his level, it was obviously unrealistic to face so many Death Eaters alone, especially with Bella and Dolohov holding the battle.
In an act of desperation, he cast a blasting spell, which blew up the shelf near the Death Eaters. Countless prophecy balls came crashing down, forcing the Death Eaters to duck and dodge.
In the chaos, Hermione and Ron managed to get out of control, followed Harry and ran all the way, and finally managed to escape to the main hall where the members of the Order of the Phoenix had already ambushed them in advance.
From this point of view, Ron didn't help at all in the whole process. He was just used as a hostage to threaten Harry. In addition, it was his idea to sneak out, so no wonder he didn't mention it at all.
While chatting along the way, the train slowly slowed down and stopped at Hogwarts station. Everyone boarded the Thestral carriage and returned to the castle after being away for more than half a month.
The young wizards quickly noticed that Umbridge, who had disgusted them for half a school year, did not appear on the staff bench, replaced by a chubby bald wizard.
Seeing Glenn and the others entering the door, Slughorn smiled and waved.
"Who is that?" Harry couldn't help but ask.
Glenn smiled politely and nodded at Slughorn, and then explained to Harry in a low voice: "Dumbledore and I invited the new professor with great difficulty."
"Replace Umbridge?" Hermione asked in surprise.
"You will find out soon, but I'm afraid this may not be good news for you." Glenn pretended to be separate from them and sat at the long table of Ravenclaw.
Like the trio, most of the students were very interested in Slughorn, and they were discussing in low voices.
Of course, he was not the only one at the center of the conversation, but also Harry Potter.
After a period of being viewed as a petty liar and an egomaniac, he once again resumed his identity as the "Boy-Who-Lived".
This is the first time for the little wizards to find that there is a new professor after returning from Christmas vacation. Due to the unique curiosity of young people, the meal time tonight is much shorter.
When the dessert disappeared, Dumbledore finally stood up with expectant eyes.
"Welcome back!" He said with a smile, "According to usual habits, everyone should have gone back to rest by this time. But obviously, you are all still waiting for me to announce something."
He paused for a moment and continued: "I think everyone has noticed that I regret to announce that due to the work arrangements of the Ministry of Magic, we have abolished the position of 'Hogwarts Senior Investigator'. At the same time, Umri Professor Qi had to say goodbye to us, ending her teaching career at Hogwarts."
"No regrets at all!"
Amidst the cheers, Fred and George slapped the table and shouted excitedly. Others looked at Slughorn with much more enthusiasm.
"At the same time, we are also pleased to welcome a new teacher-Professor Slughorn."
When the noise gradually subsided, Dumbledore continued to announce. Slughorn also stood up, his belly bumping against the dining table with joy, and Professor McGonagall next to him had to quickly hold the goblet.
"It's a former colleague of mine who has agreed to return to his old position as the Potions teacher for the remainder of the year."
"what?!"
"Potions class?!"
“Did I hear it wrong, or did he say it wrong??”
There was an uproar as the news seemed to drop a bombshell in the auditorium.
Glenn looked at Harry and clearly noticed the panic in his eyes - if the new professor was in charge of the Potions class, wouldn't that mean...
"At the same time, Professor Snape will be the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher."
But maybe because he was really frightened this time, he didn't even mention what happened that day to anyone.
