The Bard at Hogwarts

Since he bought a house in Hogsmeade.

Whether it is Christmas or New Year, Ino can always find his sense of belonging.

Although he is the only one in the house, he no longer feels like a rootless duckweed.

Sitting quietly by the window on the second floor.

Noisy sounds came faintly from the main commercial street; smoke rose from the chimneys of the surrounding houses.

Life is probably like this.

1993 also passed quietly in the fireworks of life.

And this year, whether it is the little wizards in the castle or the residents of Hogsmeade, everyone has their own story.

…

The fifteen-day Christmas holiday passed suddenly.

On the day of returning to school, Ino packed up all his belongings and set off on the road back to the castle alone.

The second half of the semester will probably be a bit busy.

But before getting busy, he still has to deal with some things in advance, such as Slytherin's relics.

After copying all the hidden information on the pendant with the help of the bronze oil lamp, he did not intend to keep it.

Since I said I would give it to Snape, I must keep my word.

Besides, no one is more qualified than Snape to give this purified pendant.

But the premise is that he must still be the dean of Slytherin. After all, this is not a personal gift.

As for the future, if Snape is no longer the dean, then this pendant will naturally have nothing to do with him.

...

The train may always be late.

After returning to the common room in the afternoon, Ino found that there were still only a few people here, probably all students who stayed in school for the holidays.

Although they were not familiar with each other, he responded politely after the other party greeted him warmly.

After returning to the dormitory, he simply tidied up, put on the standard robe, and walked towards Snape's office.

"Knock knock knock!"

The door of the Potions Office opened automatically.

Walking into the room, Ino took out the pendant from his pocket without much greeting, and put it on the desk.

"Professor, I think this thing should be given to you." Ino explained in a low voice.

"Slytherin's pendant! What Regulus once sacrificed himself to protect, now it has been purified."

He did not mention the name of the Dark Lord, especially under the premise of knowing the story, knowing everything but mentioning the Dark Lord in front of Snape, this behavior is always a bit unauthentic.

Looking at the pendant box with hollow carvings, Snape did not answer immediately, but took out his wand and gently pressed the pendant.

After a careful inspection, he expressed his attitude sparingly:

"Put it down! It belongs to Slytherin."

Listening to the double-entendre explanation, Ino smiled silently.

"Yes, professor! It belongs to Slytherin."

It's really easy to talk to smart people, because some things don't need to be told at all, and simple communication can already show a lot of things.

"Nothing, I'll leave first, goodbye professor!"

After finishing the business, he left, after all, Snape was not a talkative person.

However, just when Ino turned around, Snape's voice came from behind.

"Some things, such as two-way mirrors, are prone to problems if left for a long time. I mean, if you have any alchemical items that malfunction, you can come to me."

Snape's tone was very slow, as if he was choosing his words carefully, and as if he was trying his best to cover up something.

"Two-way mirror?" Ino looked at his dean in surprise. Why did he think of the two-way mirror for no reason?

"You don't have it?" Snape's expression was even more surprised, and he even lost the calm tone he deliberately maintained.

"Should I have it?" This was very confusing. If it weren't for the vague sense of familiarity, he would have wanted to light a lantern to look at Snape now.

"You don't have it..." Snape looked at the student in front of him carefully. After confirming that the other party was not lying, he asked in a somewhat inexplicable tone:

"Tell me what you did during the Christmas vacation, who you met, and what you did!"

...

"Bang!"

With the sound of the door closing.

Ino left the Potions Office with a strange look on his face.

"Hermione..."

Through the brief conversation just now, he probably guessed the whole story.

After all, Snape is a cold character throughout the story, and he would never pay attention to the trivialities of students' holidays.

Even when facing Harry, Snape would only care in his own way, such as standing outside the castle waiting alone, such as special care in class.

However, it was such a cold professor who asked him what he did during the Christmas holidays, especially when he heard Hermione leave angrily, he was vaguely a little irritable.

Well, no one is stupid.

Hermione's holiday letter, the two-way mirror mentioned by Snape, the long storage time, and even Gryffindor and Slytherin...

When all this known information is connected, the answer has actually emerged.

"The flowers that did not bloom in the previous generation are thinking about the fruits of the next generation..."

In the corridor of the basement of the castle, Ino walked slowly towards the dormitory, and at the same time, he was thinking about Hermione again in his mind.

Originally, this matter was nothing, but before Regulus's funeral, he had just finished talking with Dumbledore about divination and fate, and it had only been a week since then.

In the Bans store, he thought of MediaCorp, the two-way mirror and the Mirror of Erised. As a result, on the day after returning to school, Snape told Hermione that there were pairs of two-way mirrors.

When all coincidences come together just right, it's time to think about whether it's a coincidence or not.

...

With his mind on his mind, Ino returned to the Slytherin common room.

It was different from the coldness before he left.

With the arrival of the train back to school, the common room also became lively.

After all, the little snakes were only cold to other colleges, or more accurately, to the little lions.

Now in their own territory, the little wizards of Slytherin also took off their previous disguises.

"Ino!" Draco took the initiative to step forward after seeing someone coming back to the common room.

"You have to help me! Just now someone said that Scarhead brought a Firebolt."

"Firebolt?" Ino raised his eyebrows in surprise.

This seemed to be another proof that whoever it was was whoever it was, and Harry still got a new broom in the third year of school.

"Yes! Firebolt! So you have to help me." Draco looked indignant.

It was obviously just a competition between colleges, but a broom that surpassed the professional league was used.

At this moment, he completely forgot about buying a bunch of Nimbus 2001s last year.

"How do you want me to help you? Should we beat Harry up?" Ino was a little helpless. How could he help with this matter? He didn't play Quidditch.

"Beat Scarhead up?" Draco's eyes suddenly lit up.

"I'm kidding, do you really want to beat him up? Are you crazy?" Seeing the other party's expression, Ino hurriedly expressed his attitude.

"Then don't beat him up." After a brief thought, Draco shook his head a little discouraged.

"But before the start of this year's College Cup, you still have to play, that's the one... I remember, the cheerleading team!"

At this moment, Draco's expression was unusually serious, and he confidently stated his plan:

"We will crush Scarhead with our momentum! We will also crush Red Hair! We will also crush Gryffindor!"
