A Magical Journey Starting at Hogwarts

Half an hour later, Harry opened his eyes drowsily.

"You're finally awake." Ron asked worriedly, "Do you feel uncomfortable in any way?"

"No, I feel pretty relaxed." Harry said with a sneer, then turned his attention to Aaron and couldn't help complaining, "Can't you tell me in advance? I'm not prepared at all."

"Definitely next time."

"Next time? And next time?"

“This is not guaranteed.

In the extremely excited state you were in just now, you couldn't listen to anything.

I can only use this method to calm you down, and it seems to be working well now. "

Harry subconsciously touched the scar on his forehead and found that it was no longer so painful, and felt a little embarrassed.

"I'm sorry, but I'm really in a hurry.

After all, that is Voldemort. Once he is resurrected, I will be the first to be unlucky. Harry looked at the three of them, "Can you understand how I feel?" "

Hermione and Ron shook their heads slightly, Voldemort was relatively abstract to them.

Although it's scary, you won't hurt these little wizards for no reason!

Aaron was nodding, looking a little out of place.

There is no scar on his forehead that indicates a crisis, but he has been in contact with Voldemort and Professor Quirrell who was possessed by Voldemort, not once or twice.

Every time I feel like I am jumping on the edge of life and death. If my mental quality is slightly worse, I may not see the sun tomorrow.

"Aaron, can you understand me?"

"Exceptionally understanding.

Don’t forget, I fought against that man in black robe, it was terrifying.

But we are safe at Hogwarts. "

When Harry heard this, he felt inexplicably relieved.

At this time, he really needs someone who can empathize with him.

"I have a hunch that Voldemort will take action at any time.

We are pressed for time and must make some changes. Harry said very seriously, "The original plan remains unchanged. Ron and I will keep an eye on Hagrid to prevent him from telling the secret."

Aaron, you and Hermione need to keep a close eye on Snape and notify us of any signs of trouble.

But I suggest adding a layer of insurance. The two groups of us take turns paying attention to the trap door. Whether it is Snape or Voldemort, once action is taken, that door is a hurdle that must be passed. "

"But that place is expressly prohibited by the school and students are not allowed to pass there." Hermione reminded, "And we can't guard that door 24 hours a day.

If you act too seriously, you will alert others. "

"There's no way." Harry said with a wry smile, "We don't have any evidence, so we can only use this stupid method if we don't have any evidence at all."

Hermione and Ron looked at each other and nodded helplessly.

At this time, we can only treat the dead horse as a live doctor, what if we encounter it!

After the plan was finalized, the four people left the classroom in batches.

However, from beginning to end, only two and a half were working hard.

Harry and Ron are two.

The scar on Harry's forehead was like a reminder, forcing him to be alert at all times.

Ron is Harry's best friend, so he naturally has to take care of his emotions and share the joys and sorrows with him.

Hermione is half of it.

She knew that Snape was not a bad person, and that he was just pretending to be a spy on him and not doing any good work.

Just be a little more careful when paying attention to the trap door. You can often see a first-year Gryffindor sitting on the stairs reviewing what he has learned, which makes many students feel ashamed.

Aaron, however, perfectly removed himself from the plan. He believed that paying attention to Dumbledore was better than anything else.

Hagrid is unreliable, so there is no need to waste too much energy on him.

Snape was a professor at the college whom he respected, and there was no need to monitor him.

As for the trap door...hehe!

He strongly suspected that Harry was monitoring this door just for peace of mind.

Can they hold on to the day or the night?

Students are not allowed to leave their dormitories in the middle of the night, but professors have this right.

The Dark Lord couldn't steal things openly at Hogwarts, and most likely would do so at night.

...

A few days later, Aaron entered Professor Snape's office as usual, as if it were his own home.

"You're here again." Snape looked at Aaron speechlessly and said, "Once a day, always at nine o'clock in the morning, very punctual!"

"No way, I have to go to Professor McGonagall's office at two in the afternoon."

"It's almost time for vacation, how about you?"

“There’s no end to learning, Professor.

Any magic spell has its use. When you need to use the magic spell, you regret that you have not learned it. That is the greatest sorrow of a wizard. "

"I admit that what you said makes sense, but...don't you think you come here too often?" Snape gritted his teeth and pointed sadly at the counters he piled on the wall, "I struggled All kinds of rare materials that I have collected with my heart have been given to you one tenth of the time these days."

Aaron scratched his head in embarrassment, and then said confidently, "It's not like I won't give you money."

"Is it a money issue?

I am not short of money, and I am not so short that I have to rely on selling materials to make a living. "

"I'll pay double." Aaron said calmly.

Snape was stunned for a moment, his face twitching slightly, but his tone was obviously weaker, "I told you that this is not about money."

"I know, this is just the student's thoughts and has no other meaning." Aaron said very sincerely, "Professor, you should actually be happy to have a student like me.

My success rate in mixing potions these days is over 70%. Aren’t all the finished products given to you?

After all, not only did you not lose money, you also made a lot of money. "

"You still have the nerve to say that?" Snape's face suddenly darkened, "Those materials can be used to prepare higher-level potions in my hands, but you can only practice them here.

Still 70%, do you know how much you have wasted? "

"It seems like any magic potion you mix can be successful in one go." Aaron said weakly, but his voice was full of dissatisfaction.

"What did you say?"

"nothing.

Professor, can I ask you a little question? "

"go ahead?"

"Can you please tell me, who has a 100% success rate in preparing potions?

no! Which famous master of potions was not fed with ingredients? "

Snape was silent. He also came from his student days and naturally knew that there was no so-called shortcut on this road.

Talent is a must, but other than talent, you can only become more proficient by trying.

"But you Huo Huo are a bit too cruel, and you use rare materials right from the start."

"It's not like I can't afford it."

"Ha! I really admire you for being able to say such a thing so confidently." Snape sneered, "In the past few days, you have been coming to my office every day to use my materials and equipment to prepare potions.

One bottle every day, no two bottles are the same. Some simple potions are no longer difficult for you. This is amazing. Your talent is almost as good as mine.

But please think about it carefully, are you really rich?

The total materials you wasted amount to three hundred galleons. Even Draco would not dare to squander the Malfoy family's wealth like this.

I need to remind you that you are using your family's resources now, not yours. "

"It's mine." Aaron said calmly, "Although I am pure blood, my family is different from those ancient pure blood families.

As the sole heir, I am qualified to open the family treasury and use any resources in it. "

When Snape heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched.

Heartbroken, why couldn't he encounter such a good thing when he was a child?

In comparison, he just feels that the world is full of malice towards him.

"Hmph! Using the wealth accumulated by the family to pay for your waste seems nothing to be proud of."

"Um..." Aaron frowned slightly, and immediately acted a little embarrassed, "Actually, I opened a small shop in Diagon Alley a few years ago. Except for the purchase channel, which is a little convenient for the family, the rest I did everything myself.

So even if I don't rely on my family, I can still earn several hundred galleons every month, and it's not a problem to make ends meet.

With the accumulation over the past few years, my personal savings are barely in five figures. "

Snape:......

"go out."

"Professor, what do you mean?" Aaron asked with some confusion, "Look down on businessmen?"

"Don't blame me." Snape said unhappily, "I have been teaching at Hogwarts for more than ten years, and this is the first time I have met a student like you who likes to talk back to the teacher. Is it interesting?"

"I'm just telling the truth. Is this wrong?"

"That's right, there's nothing wrong with that at all." Snape joked, "It just makes me have the illusion that I might not be worthy of being your teacher."

Aaron: ...
