Chapter 178 Horace Slughorn
Hefeth was not the man who would deny his mistake just because he had his trousers lifted up, because he hadn't taken them off yet.
However, there are indeed some problems with Vanasha's condition.
Hephes didn't believe that he was the kind of person who was loved by everyone and flowers bloomed wherever he went.
It can make a very young woman so willing to give to him and even become attached to him.
This is definitely not normal.
When Hephis was teaching Vanasha about the Space Palace, he also secretly looked at her memory carefully.
Vanasa was abandoned by her family at a young age because she was a dud. The pain was like a brand, deeply engraved in her heart.
Although she was later adopted by her current foster mother, the shadow of her childhood could never be erased.
Moreover, her adoptive parents are very busy at work and are rarely seen during the week. They can only see each other occasionally on weekends.
The lack of parental love in her life makes her not an orphan, but worse than an orphan.
Her adoptive parents were very strict with her in her studies.
Especially her adoptive father, who would scold and beat her if her grades dropped slightly.
However, when she achieved good results, she received no praise.
It seemed that her academic performance was just a capital for her adoptive father to show off to others.
It can be said that Vanasa never truly felt the warmth and love of her family while growing up.
Even though she is already in her thirties, the trauma of her childhood still makes her desperately desire to love and be loved.
This also led to her extremely extreme personality.
The appearance of Hephis not only cured her inferiority complex as a squib, but also gave her emotional sustenance.
Although Hephis is young, he behaves in a very mature and steady manner.
Especially when it comes to her little temper, Hephis is fully tolerant.
This made Vanasha find the long-lost sense of dependence.
Her feelings for Hephesus are more like a daughter's attachment to her father than that of a lover.
It’s just that due to physical age, the way this emotion is expressed seems a little “distorted”.
Hephis shook his head helplessly.
What kind of people are around him? None of them is normal.
Whether it's Snape, Theodore or Vanessa, each one of them.
Only Weir seems to be somewhat normal.
But he also has PTSD, he just found a way to vent it now.
But Hephis has no right to say anything about others, as he himself is not very normal.
Voldemort and Gellert are both extreme characters.
Even though he was guarded by the unicorn's shadow, their thoughts still inevitably had an impact on him.
No one knows what's wrong with Hermione these days.
She used her summer vacation time and spent a lot of money to invite a top professor from the Imperial Capital Institute of Technology to give her one-on-one tutoring.
So she studies all day long.
Fortunately, Kiki supervises her to eat on time every day.
Otherwise, this little girl might really starve herself to death because of reading.
Even the house of Heffernan in South Kensington was temporarily requisitioned by her.
Not only that, Hefes also has to collect shadows of students in related majors every day.
Provide assistance to Hermione's studies.
Seeing that she was too tired from studying, Hephis invited her to go out and relax several times to adjust her state.
But they were all rejected by Hermione.
As long as the girl is stubborn, Hephis can't do anything to her.
Fortunately, there was still a lot of the special edition refreshing potion brewed by Snape.
Otherwise, this little girl would definitely be ten thousand times more haggard than she is now.
Theodore is definitely an excellent subordinate.
It took him only seven days to sort out the memories of 172 prisoners.
Twenty-one of them possessed the key to Gringotts' vault.
Moreover, these keys were hidden very secretly and were not lost or temporarily kept by the Ministry of Magic.
Perhaps because Lestrange killed Hephaestus' mother, Theodore looked at her memory particularly carefully.
So he also discovered something very strange and reported it to Hephes.
Hephis rubbed his chin with his hand, and somehow he suddenly thought of Lucius.
But before he could continue thinking, Fox suddenly appeared in front of him with a note in his paw.
Hefeth took the note and saw a person's name and address written briefly on it.
Horace Slughorn and number 77, Godric's Hollow.
Yes, not far from his old house in Blaine.
It seems that during the summer vacation, Dumbledore finally remembered to work.
After delivering the letter, Fox did not leave, but flew to Hephes' shoulder.
It rubbed its little head against Hephes' face affectionately.
Ever since Hephesus devoured Fox's shadow, the relationship between the man and the bird has been very good.
Of course, it also has something to do with the fact that Fox would come to Hefeth from time to time to eat and drink.
Hephis took out three large bags from the small bag, then picked up a small bag and cast a traceless extension spell.
After he finished packing the bag, he hung the small bag around Fox's neck.
"Dumbledore has abused you again. Look how thin you have become. You need to eat more." Hephis said softly.
Fox rolled his eyes and nodded seriously.
Hephis thought for a moment, then took out a coin and a note, and put them into the small bag around Fox's neck.
"Give it to Dumbledore."
Fox nodded again and nuzzled Hefeth's cheek again, his eyes turning to the suitcase in the corner of the room.
Hephis opened the suitcase knowingly, and Fox flew in happily.
It played with the magical creatures in the box, especially the two unicorns, for a while before leaving reluctantly.
Slughorn was once the Potions professor at Hogwarts.
It was after he retired that Snape became a professor at the school.
Snape did scoff at it though.
Slughorn's level of potions is pretty good, and he can be considered a potion master.
It's just that he spent more of his time on managing interpersonal relationships and maintaining relationships with others.
He has made no contribution to the invention and improvement of potions.
Snape, a pure scientific researcher, looked down on "social masters" like Slughorn.
But now that Dumbledore was ready to take action, he naturally couldn't fall behind.
After all, this is part of the deal between them.
The black hole space appeared again behind Hephes, and two shadow soldiers walked out.
"Go and retrieve the shadow of Horace Slughorn. He is at 77 Godric's Hollow."
Hephaestus paused and added, "I'll get it in the evening."
The shadow soldier nodded respectfully and then quickly disappeared.
Next he just has to wait patiently.
