Study Days at Hogwarts

"Thank you, I was rescued thanks to those socks."

Shortly after Harry Potter was discharged from the hospital, he took the initiative to find Albert and expressed his gratitude to him.

He knew that although the pair of socks were a gift from Sirius, but... Harry knew very well that Sirius did not have the brains and ability to save himself from Voldemort's eyes. Only Albert, who had the ability to predict, could pinch him. Activate the door key on time.

Especially after Harry heard the outline of the whole thing from Hermione and Ron, he was even more certain about it. Otherwise, how could the Weasley family insist on staying on the Quidditch pitch and waiting for him?

"Give you a kind advice." Albert seemed not to have heard Harry Potter's thanks, and said calmly while looking at the scenery outside the window: "People are unwilling to accept the truth."

"You want me to shut up, like Fudge?"

Harry raised his eyebrows slightly, remembering something unpleasant.

Fudge came to visit him the night he was sent back, but it was not a pleasant meeting because the two sides had a falling out.

Harry saw Fudge's other face for the first time. It was ugly, ferocious, and disgusting.

"Don't you smell fear?"

Albert gestured to Harry to look at the students walking around them and reminded: "Changers usually die badly because they offend too many people."

"You think I should lie." Harry looked a little angry. He came to thank the other party, not to listen to the other party's lecture.

Just when Harry turned around and was about to leave, he heard Albert continue: "It seems that the lessons I taught you the past few days are not enough!"

"What do you mean."

Harry paused, turned his head forcefully, and asked.

In fact, he wanted to just turn away and leave, but... sometimes he should stop and listen to other people's advice, especially after he had just suffered a lot and still remembered the pain of the Cruciatus Curse.

"Many times, I suspect that your head is full of muscles, and you don't even think about why I am telling you this." Albert glanced back at Potter: "Probably because there are many students like you, Gryffindor’s courage would be laughed at as reckless!”

"Are you trying to mock me?" Harry said angrily.

"I have told you more than once that incompetence and rage will not solve the problem. It will only make you look stupid, just like you now." Albert's words blocked Harry's anger: "I just want to I want to tell you that your good days are over, and so is Dumbledore. The first person to expose the hypocritical reality will be brutally attacked.”

"Can't you just tell me directly and have to beat around the bush like this?" Harry complained through gritted teeth, knowing that the guy in front of him definitely did it on purpose.

"Of course I can do that, but I'm not your father, and I won't accommodate you. The same goes for everyone else. This is how the world is, don't you realize?" There was a hint of displeasure at the corner of Albert's mouth that made Harry unhappy. Smile: "You really can't feel the changes in the school? Everyone obviously dislikes you and regards you as a piece of shit on the roadside."

"What would you do if it were you?" Harry asked, suppressing the anger and annoyance in his heart.

"Don't you already know the answer?" Albert gave Harry a meaningful look, turned and walked away.

Harry did know, because he was Albert's answer.

Let it go and watch people pay for the mistakes they made, and even lose their lives because of it. And he was like a king, standing on a high place overlooking everything that happened below, and after the incident, he jumped out and laughed at them in a bad way, saying that it was entirely their own fault that they ended up like this, because he had reminded and warned them more than once. Everyone, but no one wants to listen.

This is Albert's behavior, just like the sentence "I am not your father and will not accommodate you."

"What a nasty guy."

Harry looked at Albert's leaving back with a complicated expression.

To be honest, Harry suspected that Albert was targeting him. He had evidence that neither Hermione, Fred nor George had ever been targeted in this way.

So he never liked Albert very much, but he had to be grateful for the help he gave, at least he did save his life.

Harry had no idea that Albert was actually reminding him specifically to help him better perform his duties as a savior, otherwise he would probably be too lazy to tell Harry such nonsense.

"What did you say to Harry?" Hermione came out of the corner.

"I just told him that it's time to accept the reality." Albert said softly: "He is still like a child who has not grown up. It is really unbearable."

"Harry is not an adult yet. You are too strict. It is unfair to him." Hermione defended Harry. She felt that Albert was too strict.

"Mysterious people are not fair. If Potter doesn't grow up now, he will have to pay a more painful price if he wants to grow further in the future." Albert said softly, "It takes an extremely painful price to make a person realize and quickly Grow up."

"For example?" Hermione asked, raising her eyebrows slightly.

"If the minions of the mysterious man kill your whole family." A cruel smile appeared on Albert's lips, "I think it will make you enlightened. Countless cases can also be cited!"

Hermione shuddered suddenly. She regretted asking Albert this question.

"The Second Wizarding War has begun." Albert reminded kindly, "There is a reason why the mysterious man and his name are feared by people. If you don't be aware, many people will die."

"you're right."

Hermione thought about Albert. He almost died in the maze. He saw it more clearly than anyone else and was more qualified to say this.

"By the way, have you caught Rita Skeeter?" Although Albert asked in a questioning tone, he seemed sure that she had caught the woman.

"Caught it. She seemed to want to get some information by the window of Harry's hospital bed."

Speaking of this, Hermione smiled happily. She had always wanted to catch Rita Skeeter, and just the day before yesterday, she finally got her wish.

"I need her to write a report on this matter. She is good at this." Albert suddenly said: "Publish it in the "Defense Guide". The magic world needs such an article to alert everyone."

"What are you going to do?" Hermione reminded with a frown, "I'm afraid the Ministry of Magic won't be happy to see such an article appear. They seem to be controlling the news recently."

"I'm afraid the "Defense Guide" will have to stop publishing for a while. It should release a bombshell before it is banned."

"Now that everyone is unwilling to believe the contents of the "Defense Guide", when the mysterious man's ambitions are completely exposed, will they believe the report of the "Defense Guide"?" Hermione guessed Albert's intention, and she suddenly felt that Sirius and It was no accident that Lupine founded this magazine.

Albert was waiting for this day to happen, and he even anticipated what would happen next.

Hermione was right. Albert did intend to use this to gain a lot of reputation for the "Defense Guide". The more suppression the "Defense Guide" received, the greater the benefits it would gain.

The most important thing is that Albert plans to cause some trouble for Fudge and Voldemort, and let the Order of the Phoenix draw away their hatred to avoid adding unnecessary trouble to himself.

Of course, he also planned to dig a pit and see how many people jumped in, and how many would fall to their death.

At this moment, both of them noticed something, turned their heads and saw Krum and Fleur coming this way.

The two came to apologize to Albert.

Although the impostor was indeed controlled by the Imperius Curse in the maze at that time, it still could not change the fact that the two were trying to kill Albert.

"Don't take it to heart, I never blamed you." Albert said calmly.

In fact, to a certain extent, it was he and Potter who should apologize, because the other people controlled by the Imperius Curse were just unlucky ones who were affected by misfortune.

After getting Albert's forgiveness, Krum whispered to Hermione, while Fleur and Albert found a place to talk.

"I plan to find a temporary job in the UK to teach English." Fleur said to Albert.

"Britain has not been peaceful recently." Albert reminded kindly.

"You mean the Dark Lord's resurrection?" Fleur raised her eyebrows slightly.

"It seems that you have met someone who interests you." Albert said suddenly.

"What do you think?" Fleur asked curiously, "I heard that you are good at divination, can you tell me the result?"

"You are a very brave person." Albert nodded and said, "Few people have such courage. I think you will succeed. Most people cannot resist your charm."

"You can do it. In fact, you're not bad either." Fleur took a deep look at Albert and said, "I suddenly understand why Louise likes you, but it's a pity..."

"There's nothing to be sorry for. Some things can't be forced." Albert said with a smile, "Have you talked to him?"

"We talked and he recommended me a temporary job at Gringotts Bank." Fleur admitted generously.

Of course, she felt that Albert probably knew something.

"Bill Weasley works at Gringotts himself," Albert said with a smile.

After separating from Fleur, Albert returned to the dormitory to pack his luggage. As soon as he entered the Gryffindor common room, Fred, George and Lee Jordan immediately greeted him.

"Man, there's your package." Fred said excitedly, "It's from Fengya Wizard Clothing Store. We think it's probably..."

"Remuneration." Albert nodded to show that he understood.

The original fire dragon suit was recycled by Fengya Wizard Clothing Store after the re-shooting of the award-winning scene of lifting the trophy.

He didn't expect that the new fire dragon suit would be delivered to him so quickly. It was obviously prepared a long time ago.

"Check it, if there is no problem, open it!"

"Leave it to us!"

The Weasley brothers looked at each other and grinned. They had prepared dark magic detectors early.

Compared with the first fire dragon suit, this fire dragon suit is not gorgeous. Albert suspects that the Fengya Wizard Clothing Store actually made two sets and chose the most handsome one for promotion, while throwing the other one to Albert was paid for advertising.

After all, with Albert's status, the remuneration must not be shabby, otherwise he will be directly rejected if he is not sincere.

Fengya Wizard Clothing Store is not at a loss either. With Albert's deeds, he is destined to become a legend. Such an opportunity may not even come again in the future. It is important to show your sincerity.

"It looks ordinary." Fred said slightly disappointed.

"This is what people wear normally. The fire dragon suit before was too gorgeous." Albert looked at himself in the mirror, then took off the fire dragon suit and threw it aside casually.

"How are you preparing to open the store?"

"Everything is going according to plan. But, do you really plan to..." George hesitated, he felt that Albert was really generous.

A few days ago, Albert gave them the galleons obtained from the Triwizard Tournament as start-up capital for opening a store.

"Next semester is going to be a very interesting year," Albert said softly.

"interesting?"

"I heard that Dumbledore seems to be planning to... announce the return of the mysterious man."

The three of them looked at each other, not understanding what Albert wanted to express.

"With Fudge's character, he will probably send someone to interfere with Hogwarts and even drive away our principal." A meaningful smile appeared on Albert's face.

"How dare he do this." The three said in unison.

"Of course he dares to do this. Politicians can eat shit when necessary and claim that shit smells delicious." Albert said contemptuously. "There will definitely be a nasty guy then, but you also know that Defense Against the Dark Arts Professors always have accidents.”

"We can give him an unexpected surprise."

The three of them looked at each other, and suddenly they understood why Albert said that the next semester would be a very interesting year. They also understood that Albert had always said that seventh grade was a good place to promote joke props.

It really fits! !

At the leaving party that night, Harry Potter once again became the object of countless people's attention, even more eye-catching than Albert, the champion of the Triwizard Tournament.

People are curious about what happened that night, because there are some bad rumors circulating in Hogwarts Castle, and for the first time they want to prove those rumors are false.

"Tonight, I have a lot to say to all of you," Dumbledore said, looking at the students below, "but first I must pay tribute to Mr. Anderson. He not only thwarted the Death Eaters' conspiracy in a desperate situation, but also exposed the little Barty Crouch’s identity, expose his tricks to the public, and prevent a tragedy from happening. He is a true warrior, a true champion, and the pride of Hogwarts!”

Dumbledore raised his goblet towards Albert.

Albert could only raise his goblet and stood up from his seat, greeting the various cheers and applause in the auditorium.

"I know everyone is curious about what happened that night." Dumbledore waited for the cheers in the auditorium to stop and then continued, "Maybe you already know some, but the most important part - the Ministry of Magic actually doesn't want Let me tell you, some parents of my classmates may be shocked by what I did - perhaps because they cannot accept the cruel fact that Voldemort is really back."

After hearing the news, the students in the auditorium had shock and fear written on their faces. Even though they had heard similar rumors, these words came from Dumbledore's mouth, and their weight was incomparable to the rumors. sex.

"They think I shouldn't tell you this. After all, you are still young, but I believe that telling the truth is always better than lying. At least it can make you mentally prepared. Not everyone is Mr. Anderson, not everyone Individuals can enjoy everyone’s applause instead of paying tribute after unfortunately encountering evil forces.”

Dumbledore looked at the pale students below and suddenly said: "I once asked Mr. Anderson what the secret of success is. He told me that he never meets challenges without preparation. Now I I send this message to everyone.”

"Of course, when it comes to what happened last night, I have to mention another person." Dumbledore continued, "Yes, I am talking about Harry Potter, who once again escaped the clutches of Voldemort. In my When he hurried over, he was dueling with Voldemort. Even though he was knocked down and tortured by the Cruciatus Curse, when his life was threatened, he never surrendered, bowed or compromised to Voldemort. Very few wizards faced Voldemort's power. He always showed such courage and courage, and for that, I pay tribute to him.”

That night, many owls left overnight with letters, and at the same time, they carried the news of Voldemort's resurrection to all parts of Britain.

The next morning, more owls were released.

After Albert said goodbye to Fleur and Krum, he came to the crowded foyer and found Fred, George and Lee Jordan waiting for the carriage.

"follow me."

"What's wrong? It's mysterious."

The three of them looked at each other, dragged their luggage and left with Albert.

"I don't plan to leave by train. I'll give the things to you now." Albert handed the two double-sided mirrors just delivered this morning to George and Lee Jordan and warned, "Don't try to write to me. Then This method is no longer safe, and the owl cannot find my specific location. Also, don’t let anyone know about the existence of this thing.”

"What are you doing?"

"I plan to hide temporarily to avoid being spotted." Albert said quickly.

"You're not coming to school." Fred asked in shock.

"Of course, the school is quite safe at the moment, and I plan to get the N.E.w.Ts certificate." Albert shrugged, "But I have to be careful. No one knows whether the mysterious person will suddenly have a seizure and want to find him. My trouble may come from Death Eaters, but it is still trouble."

"Is the situation very bad? Have you talked to Dumbledore about this?" The three asked worriedly, "Maybe, Dumbledore..."

"Don't worry, I've been prepared a long time ago. No one can find me, not anyone. See you next semester." Albert turned around and left without giving them a chance to speak.

"You really don't need my help?"

Dumbledore stood by the window looking at the leaving students below, and asked Albert who appeared next to him.

"No need." Albert said calmly, "I have prepared a safe home for myself."

"That's it. No wonder you want to take it away." Dumbledore nodded and said, "Many wizards always despise this. I am very happy that you can treat it well."

"I will." Albert smiled and looked at the house elf beside him, "Kara, I will trouble you next."

"It's my pleasure, Master." The house elf Carla bowed slightly towards Dumbledore, stretched out her hand to hold Albert's hand and disappeared.

"Sometimes, it's not good to see too clearly."

Dumbledore looked back, recalling the conversation with Albert not long ago, and sighed softly, even if he knew there was no hope, he still had to give it a try.

Some things need someone to do them after all.
