Hogwarts: From Squibs to Greatness

Chapter 23 The second impression contest, Slytherin lost again! (seeking further reading and recommendation)
John naturally knew who did it, and what the other party's purpose was.

Watching Harry quietly, visible to the naked eye after hearing that Gringotts had been stolen after they left, and that the intruding dark wizard seemed to be looking for something, perhaps related to You-Know-Who.

As if thinking of something, Harry fell silent visibly.

Harry is no longer the novice at the beginning. During this period of time, he has seen many things clearly, such as the mysterious man.

Whenever the mysterious person is mentioned, he has a faint fear, and he can't help but recall the frightening green light. He also learned from Hagrid that it is one of the three unforgivable curses The light of the Killing Curse.

Compared with the fact that he could call Voldemort by his name without any scruples before, Harry now gradually began to feel the horror in this name.

Seemingly seeing that Harry was in the wrong mood, Ron also realized that something involving the mysterious man must have irritated Harry, so he immediately changed the subject

"Which Quidditch team do you like?"

"Um, actually John told me about Quidditch, and I don't know anything about it," Harry admitted.

"What!" Ron seemed stunned.

But it was relieved to think that Harry had been living in the Muggle world before, and then he started chattering about different Quidditch teams.

It can be seen that Ron is very fond of this sport, whether it is the history of the team or related news, he is very clear about it, which also makes Harry's impression of this sport change from John's American football in the wizarding world to A very interesting sport.

Just when Ron was talking vividly about the famous ball games he and his brothers went to, and just when he was talking about the most exciting part of the game, the door of the box was pushed open again, but this time it wasn't the boy Neville who came in. Not Hermione Granger.

Three boys entered, and Harry recognized the middle one at once as the pale boy he had met in Madam Malkin's robe shop.

And behind him were two thick, thick, and particularly ugly boys, one on each side, just like a pair of his bodyguards.

The pale boy was watching Harry now with far greater interest than he had in Diagon Alley.

"Is it true?" He still asked Harry in that disgusting tone. In this box."

"So it's you, right?"

Although it was a question sentence, Harry looked into the boy's eyes and naturally knew the certainty in the other's eyes.

So Harry didn't choose to hide it. He stared at the three people in front of him and said directly, "Yes, I am Harry Potter."

The pale-faced boy looked into Harry's eyes, and casually waved his finger at the two people behind him: "This is Crabbe, this is Goyle."

Then, with some seriousness, he slowly said in that disgusting tone: "Let me introduce myself again, my name is Malfoy, Draco Malfoy"

Ron seemed to be amused by Malfoy's tone, but under the current situation, he could only suppress a slight cough to keep from laughing out loud.

But this light cough still attracted Malfoy's attention. The other party showed a look as if he had just discovered the right way, and said, "Look, who is this? Let me think about it. I remember my father told me that Wei The Slys are all red-haired and freckled, and they're too poor to raise children."

"I think you are one of those who can't afford it!"

Then he didn't look at Ron's flushed face because of anger, and looked at Harry again: "Potter, compared to these poor ghosts who can't even support children, you should get in touch with some wizard families with more capital." Better isn't it? Befriending weird people won't help you!"

"I'm different. My family is Malfoy, one of the 28 sacred families. I can help you, as long as we become friends!"

With that said, Malfoy held out his hand to Harry, his condescending eyes were full of arrogance, as if he didn't think Harry would choose to refuse.

"I think I can tell who's different, thanks."

For the first time, Harry showed indifference and disgust towards anyone other than the Dursleys.

Even after seeing Harry's dislike for him, Malfoy withdrew his hand, his pale cheeks did not flush with anger like Ron's, but a faint blush.

"If I were you, Potter, I'd be very careful." Malfoy's tone became more disgusting, and his voice was drawn out, "You should be more polite, otherwise you will go to your parents They don’t know what’s good or bad, just like you, they all hang out with dubious people like the Weasleys or Hagrid, if you don’t want to be affected, it’s better to learn to choose real friends earlier.”

"And..." Malfoy dragged his tone again, and his eyes fell on John
"I learned from my dad that some people somehow became wizards and became friends with Harry."

"But a Squib is a Squib after all. Maybe when he gets off the bus and arrives at Hogwarts, he will be discovered for his little tricks, and then he will be kicked out of the wizarding world and thrown back into the Muggle world, becoming a sad and despicable person again." "Squib"

"Can you say that again!"

Harry and Ron stood up abruptly, Ron's face was as red as his red hair, Harry also clenched his fists and looked at Malfoy fiercely.

Harry now finally understands why John had that expression when he mentioned the Squibs. From Ron's attitude, he can see the status of this identity in the wizarding world, which may be what the other party doesn't want to say. reason.

"Oh, you want to fight, don't you?" Malfoy sneered.

Just when Malfoy was about to say something more, a voice that didn't contain any emotion, but anyone could hear the sound of anger

"If I were you, I would choose to lie on the ground and beg for mercy now, instead of looking for death here with arrogance!"

At this moment, John had stood up from his seat, holding his wand in his hand. His fiery red hair was surging with magic power, like a burning flame floating without wind, and his blue dragon pupils were icy cold, as if he could not see. the bottom of the abyss.

Facing John like this, Malfoy subconsciously stepped back, but it seemed that this made him feel humiliated.

"Since you can't recognize reality clearly, then I will teach you well! Come on!"

As Malfoy's words fell, Goyle and Crabbe rushed to John with grinning grins.

But in the next second, John's cold figure sounded in the box.

"All petrochemical!"

There was a flash of magic, and Goyle and Crabbe were frozen in place like two ugly statues.

Even with the smirk on their faces because of the curse, Harry and Ron could still see the fear in their eyes.

Malfoy originally had a smug smile on his face, but this scene was obviously beyond his expectations. After all, John's family would not spread the news that he could release the spell, and would only keep denying John's identity as a wizard.

"You! What are you going to do!" Malfoy looked at John who was approaching with some horror. "I warn you, my father is the director of Hogwarts. If you do anything to me, I will ask my father to fire you!"

But soon Malfoy found that John didn't hesitate at all, and even swung his wand to close the carriage door behind him.

Harry and Ron were anxious, but they didn't know how to speak to dissuade John. They didn't want John to be expelled from school for doing something to Malfoy.

John naturally didn't know what the two of them were thinking, he was looking at Malfoy now, and Longwei was exerting on him without the slightest reservation.

In Malfoy's eyes, he gradually got rid of his human form and turned into a ferocious red dragon. He spread his wings covering the sky and the sun, and released a murderous intent towards him.

"My dad is a school director ... my dad ... ah ah ah !!! Don't kill me !!!"

Malfoy couldn't bear the unleashed Longwei at all. He was completely frightened, and at this moment he stepped back in horror and hit the door of the carriage, trembling uncontrollably, and the foul-smelling liquid dripped down his trouser legs to the ground .

He is incontinent.

John avoided the liquid spreading from his feet with some disgust, and looked at Malfoy who was already completely messed up by fright, and he also knew that there was no need to go any further.

So John withdrew Longwei, and at the same time released the spell to stop the petrification of Gore and Crabbe.

"get out!"

Hearing John's words, Goyle and Crabbe immediately picked up Malfoy, who was already slumped on the ground, and pushed the door of the carriage to escape without a trace, as if there was a ghost chasing after him.

The wand aimed at the mark Malfoy had left on the ground.

"Clean up."

As the tip of the wand glowed again, those traces were quickly wiped away as if by some invisible hand, and even the smell disappeared.

"Wow! John, you are really amazing!" Ron looked at John who sat down again with some admiration.

He really adores John now.

Not to mention the magic that just turned people into petrification, it can directly scare Malfoy into the urine, which also proves John's power.

And such a powerful person, how could he be a squib, obviously Malfoy is talking nonsense!

Harry was also in the same mind as Ron, but he was a little worried about whether John would be fired because of Malfoy's father.

John saw Harry's worry, and said directly: "It's okay, even if Malfoy's father is the school manager, Principal Dumbledore will not let him expel the students easily."

It seems that Dumbledore's name is more useful, and Harry, who trusts John and Hagrid, is naturally relieved.

Afterwards, Harry couldn't help but asked John about the Squib. John thought about it and explained briefly, but of course John didn't say anything about the family.

Only then did Harry and Ron realize what Malfoy had just said, and they hated Malfoy even more.

Then Ron leaned over to Harry and asked, "I see the guy just now, have you met Malfoy before?"

Harry nodded, and then told Ron about his encounter with Malfoy in Diagon Alley, and also said that it was John who came forward to rescue him, and it was probably because of this that the other party started investigating John.

"I've heard about his family." Ron said gloomily, "After the mysterious man disappeared, they were the first people to come back to our side, saying that they had gone mad and were controlled by the mysterious man with a spell."

"But my dad didn't believe a word they said. He said that as far as Malfoy's father is concerned, there is no need to make any excuses. He just fell to the side of the dark forces on his own initiative."

Just as Ron was talking about the Malfoy family angrily and excitedly, a voice sounded in the carriage.

"The train will arrive at Hogwarts in 5 minutes. Please leave your luggage on the train. We will send you to school."

Hearing this, Ron stopped complaining, and he and Harry hurriedly changed their clothes.

As for John, he set off directly wearing the black robe required by the school and did not need to change clothes.

So he stood by the carriage door with his arms folded, waiting for Harry and Ron to get dressed.
