Hogwarts: Voldemort, don't stop me from studying

Chapter 174: Learning Snake Language

"Are you a Parseltongue? Can you talk to snakes?"

After a while, Neville confirmed again, as if he thought he heard wrongly.

After telling the secret, Harry felt relaxed. Hearing the words, he said in detail:

"Once at the zoo, I released a python from the glass cabinet. I don't know how I did it. I didn't know I was a wizard at that time..."

"Anyway, as it was leaving, I heard it say thank you and say goodbye."

"A snake... said thank you?" Ryan couldn't believe it: "Did you hear it speaking English, or..."

Harry recalled: "It's English with an accent, right? It feels like a person speaking through gritted teeth."

"Why not give it a try?" Vader said, pointing his wand at the quill on the table.

The green quill twisted and soon turned into a small green snake. It snaked and swam on the table, its triangular head raised from time to time.

"Say something to it, Harry?" Vader said. "Give it an order."

Harry saw everyone looking at him curiously. Padma and Hermione unconsciously leaned back, trying to get further away from the snake.

He looked at the magic snake, thought for a moment and said, "Hello? Uh...can you coil it up?"

The snake looked at him, coiled up docilely, raised its head and stuck out its pointed tongue, as if waiting for the next command.

Harry relaxed, and he even felt familiar with the snake. He looked up at everyone and couldn't tell what their expressions were.

A faint panic filled Harry's mind.

Vader spoke.

"It seems you didn't realize that the hissing sound you just made was like a snake talking."

He said thoughtfully: "It's amazing... For a person to learn a language, he needs constant memorization and practice. But snake whisperers master snake language naturally, as if they have a translation system in their brains... "

Harry felt a little more relaxed and asked in a deliberately casual tone: "Does Parseltongue sound weird?"

"It's kind of creepy... Anyone who doesn't understand it will look advanced." Vader imitated Harry's hiss, and then asked: "What does this mean?"

Harry hissed back.

Wade was helpless: "Harry, can you please speak English?"

"Oh!" Harry then realized that he had spoken in snake language again. He thought for a moment before saying, "It means 'Hello, please coil up'."

"Then how do you say 'thank you'?" Wade continued to study.

Harry taught him the same thing.

"Then...don't move?"

"Open?"

"attack?"

"Playing dead?"

Vader took notes while learning, and Harry was very happy that what he learned could be useful to others, so he gave guidance very enthusiastically.

So everyone listened to each of them making strange hissing sounds, and the cold feeling quickly disappeared.

Several people looked at each other, and then Hermione, who was a top student, took out the notebook first.

"What are we learning this for?" Fred asked.

George shrugged: "Don't you think it's cool?"

Wade tapped the quill snake coiled next to Harry with the tip of his pen and said:

"The most incredible thing about the Snake Whisperer is that he can even control snakes created by magic. Logically speaking, this snake should obey my will, but it obeyed Harry's orders."

"So Parseltongue isn't just about people talking to snakes..."

Wade said thoughtfully: "Snake creatures seem to be born to obey the snake whisperer, just like the relationship between the inferior and the superior..."

"So...Harry, are you a descendant of Slytherin?" Michael asked.

"It's very possible." Neville hesitated and said, "But I have seen the family tree of the pure-blood family... It seems that the Potter family is not married to the Slytherin family!"

"Don't be so sure, Neville."

Fred put his arm around his shoulders.

"Slytherin has been around for more than a thousand years. Who knows how many families his descendants have been married to? You know, people who are removed from pure-blood families will not be recorded in the family tree. Their descendants will be Not anymore."

"There seems to be no Parselmouth in the Potter family." Theo also guessed: "Maybe it's Harry's mother's bloodline..."

"Then why is Harry in Gryffindor?" Michael couldn't help but ask: "The Sorting Hat should sort you into Slytherin."

"Uh...this is also a secret..."

Harry hesitated and said, "Actually, the Sorting Hat wanted to sort me into Slytherin, but I refused."

Everyone nodded, thinking that he was right to refuse.

The professors inspected the maze for a week and found no clues except some remnants of chat grass in the stables.

The other animals in the maze didn't eat anything they shouldn't. They ate and slept every day as always, without any other worries.

So despite strong protests from students, the maze decided to reopen on Saturday afternoon.

But on this day, there is another big event, the Quidditch match between Gryffindor and Slytherin.

Speaking of which, this game has been postponed for two weeks.

In the previous retrial of Sirius's case, the Ministry of Magic sent people to Hogwarts several times to investigate. Among them, the Weasley brothers and Harry who lived in the same dormitory were often questioned, and the game was postponed to ten for this reason. Late January.

This week it's Gryffindor VS Slytherin, and next week it's Ravenclaw VS Hufflepuff.

As the first Quidditch match of this semester approaches, the atmosphere in the school becomes heated again, and Gryffindor and Slytherin are in constant conflict.

At eleven o'clock, teachers and students began to go to the Quidditch pitch. Wade arrived at the Room of Requirement on the eighth floor, opened the vanishing cabinet, and a large, shiny black dog jumped out.

He ran around the house twice excitedly, and then turned into a tall, thin man with black hair and gray eyes.

He was wearing a dark gray wizard robe, his hair was cut short and neatly combed, he also had some flesh on his cheeks, his eyes were bright, and he looked unusually handsome.

"Are you Vader? Vader Gray?"

Sirius spoke quickly, and before Wade could answer, he bent down to salute, and then stretched out his hand: "Thank you very much for your help, Mr. Grey, you gave me a new life."

"Hello, Mr. Black." Wade shook hands with him and said, "I admire your loyalty and courage."

The two looked at each other and smiled at each other.

They all have black hair and gray eyes. It's just that Sirius's eyes have drooping tails, which are somewhat similar to canine eyes; while Vader's eyes are rounder and the tails of his eyes are slightly raised.

Lupine also came out of the disappearing cabinet.

"Remus, you are so slow." Sirius said eagerly: "Is the game about to start? I want to go to the stadium to watch Harry play! Let's leave quickly!"

Before he finished speaking, he threw himself on the ground and transformed into a big black dog again.

The dog's body also seemed to affect Sirius's thinking. He spun around twice, swung his tail vigorously, and then pounced towards the door.

"Wait, Sirius."

Lupine hurriedly grabbed him and reached out to grab the black dog's tail. Sirius whined, nearly jumped three feet in the air, and turned back to glare at Lupin.

"Sorry." Lupine quickly let go of his hand and explained: "You have now registered your Animagus form with the Ministry of Magic, and your transformed appearance is so conspicuous that students will definitely recognize it at a glance."

Sirius thought... thought... He shook his head reluctantly, his ears drooped, but he still came close to Lupin.

Lupine tapped his head with his wand and used the Disillusionment Charm, and the black dog disappeared into the air.

Then it couldn't wait to open the door with its paws, and rushed out like a gust of wind.

"Sirius actually hoped that Harry could see him in the audience." Lupine explained to Vader: "Fortunately, he did not insist on his own ideas."

Vader was silent for a moment and asked: "If you want to use the Disillusionment Curse...then what's the point of turning into a black dog?"

Lu Ping seemed to have just remembered: "Ah... I forgot to remind him..."

Wade: ...You actually did it on purpose, right?
