The Wind and the Eagle Wings at Hogwarts

Scott rowed the boat some distance away from the dock and then stopped, letting the boat ripple with the waves.

He said to Jacob: "It has only been a month since school started, but you have changed a lot. Compared with the first time we met, you are already two people."

Jacob chuckled softly, "What will happen if I am still as naive as when I first entered the magic world?"

Scott raised the corners of his lips slightly, put one hand on the side of the ship, and tapped his fingers unconsciously.

"I'm not blaming you, Jacob." He said softly, "On the contrary, I admire what you did."

Jacob didn't show any surprise, he looked at Scott calmly, "I know."

He said: "You originally planned to expose me completely, but then you changed your mind, didn't you?"

Scott agreed with his judgment without hesitation, "You are right."

At this moment, he suddenly raised his head and waved to the Weasley twins who were waving to him on the shore of the lake in the distance.

Then, he continued to say to Jacob: "I did not choose to expose you later because it involved a position issue."

"Pure-blood wizards and Muggle-born wizards?" Jacob asked clearly.

Scott nodded, "Originally, I thought you chose to side with Jasmine Travers."

At this point, he laughed again, "I didn't expect that I was wrong this time."

In response, Jacob sneered several times, "I know very well what they think of Muggle-born wizards. Besides, I didn't come here to learn how to be a house elf."

Scott then talked about what happened the day before, "Now that I think about it, you should have contributed to Du Ping being exposed so easily, right? The flaws left by her sneaking into our dormitory were too obvious."

He clapped his hands and said, "You should have been waiting for such an opportunity, and it just so happened that the three Travers fell ill and gave you the opportunity."

Jacob did not hide anything, "Yes, I kept urging Dupin at that time, which aggravated her nervousness, so in panic, she chose to use a cutting spell to open Davis' box."

"I thought Davis would find something wrong when he saw the box, but I didn't expect him to actually ride on the broom." He shook his head.

"Anyway, it was you who chose Dupin as the professor to understand the whole thing. Well done, Jacob." Scott clapped softly.

"Originally, I thought that although you might have been forced at first, you simply chose to become Travers' follower later on. If you don't have the will to save yourself, of course I won't go out of my way to save you. This is something I didn't do later. Ignore your reasons."

At this point, he paused and quickly took out his wand.

"Waddiwasi."

The launching spell accurately hit the stones floated by the twins, and flew back with the stones in the opposite direction.

Scott held the wand in his hand and continued to say to Jacob: "Now I understand. You refused my help, did not ask the professor for help, and chose to continue hanging out with those few pure-blooded little witches because you wanted to What to get from Travers?"

He tapped his wand on the palm of his hand, "Like, some dark magic."

Jacob nodded and admitted very simply.

"It's just some small curses and a few poison spells. It can't be called real black magic. But I think what's more important is some common sense knowledge for pure-blood wizards." He said.

"Maybe this seems like a bad deal to you, Scott."

Jacob's face didn't show much expression.

"But I don't have as strong a magical talent as you. In order to gain the knowledge that cannot be learned from Hogwarts, I think it is worth the effort."

At this moment, his eyes were particularly bright.

"Even though I was verbally humiliated and cursed on my body every day during this period, I think it was worth it!"

"That's very Ravenclaw."

Scott commented, then raised his hand and cast a launching spell on the flying stones.

"I won't judge whether it's worth it or not." He said to Jacob at the same time, "That's your own choice, and I won't tell you what to do."

"This is very Ravenclaw, too." Jacob sent Scott's comment back.

"Thank you." Scott then said, "But, you know, even though Professor Flitwick said he would expel her, there is a high chance that Travers will return to Hogwarts."

Jacob was not surprised by this, "I know that the most Travers did was instigate. There is no definite evidence that she hurt and intimidated me..."

He shook his head, "...You know, this cannot constitute a crime. Avery, who gave Dupin the dark magic items, made more obvious mistakes than she did."

Scott took hold of the oar again and began to row the boat slowly toward the dock.

"Although the professors will keep a close eye on her after she returns to Hogwarts, you still have to be careful of her secret revenge." He warned Jacob.

Jacob smiled, "The target of her revenge may also be you, Scott. I know her fairly well, she holds a grudge very much, and she will never give up."

His tone was full of meaning.

"It seems that you knew about Travers' revenge plan against me," Scott said, "but you chose to hide it from Professor Flitwick."

Jacob had a cunning look on his face, "My intuition told me not to lie to Professor Flitwick, so I only concealed part of the facts and told the truth the rest of the time."

"Your intuition is very accurate." Scott praised.

Jacob said: "The magic of magic is that there are too many unknown means for us. If we just guard against it, we will suffer a lot."

"So?" Scott raised his eyebrows slightly.

"So we should make that girl lose the ability to retaliate against us." Jacob said with a cold expression.

He paused, his face eased a little, and then said: "This should also be the purpose of calling me alone, right?"

"No, you are wrong. Jacob."

Scott's answer was not what he thought.

"Let Travers lose the ability to retaliate against us?" He shook his head, "I am afraid we can't do it. Even if we can do it, there will be great risks. I don't do such uncertain things."

Although Jacob's proposal sounded reasonable and attractive to Scott, but——

St. Mungo's Hospital for Magical Injuries and Maladies, a place Scott didn't know at all, he would never take risks.

"What about you?" Jacob finally showed a surprised expression on his face.

"I said, just communicating with you."

At this time, the boat had already landed. Scott stood up from the boat and jumped onto the dock.

He turned around and said to Jacob who was still sitting on the boat: "We are both wizards of Muggle origin, and we often have the same position. And you are a smart guy, maybe we can cooperate many times in the future. This time is a real preliminary understanding."

After that, he waved his hand and turned to leave.

Before leaving the dock, he heard Jacob's dissatisfied voice, "I don't know you!"

"This is your own ability problem."

Scott turned around and said, and raised his foot to climb the stone steps leading to Hogwarts Castle.
