Harry Potter and the Attack of the Squibs

Chapter 24: Beautiful from all sides

At this moment, a girl knocked on the door of the cubicle.

She was obviously excited to meet the legendary Harry Potter, and based on the look on her face when she saw Hermione leaning on Harry's shoulder, this girl was very enthusiastic about Harry Potter. Same as usual.

"Professor Slughorn asked you to come to his compartment on the train."

Harry recalled vaguely, then looked at Hermione carefully.

Hermione couldn't help but smile: "He's impressed by you, isn't he?"

As she spoke, she took the note from the girl's hand.

However, the girl was obviously very reluctant to let the note fall into Hermione's hands. She pretended to be calm and used so much force on her hands that the two of them almost tore the note in half.

Harry stared intently, and there was no reaction until the girl finally gave up helplessly.

With a victorious smile on her face, Hermione handed the note to Harry.

"He seemed to only let you go alone."

Although the girl hadn't left yet, neither Harry nor Hermione looked at her at all, so she had no choice but to leave in tears.

Looking at her back, some people who are as valuable as papayas may feel that it is drizzling.

But Harry didn't feel this way at all. He hesitated: "Can I not go?"

Hermione shook her head: "Don't forget that if you want to be an Auror, you need to get a high score in the Ultimate Wizarding Level Examination in Potions class. That Slug..."

Harry smiled helplessly: "Professor Slughorn."

Hermione nodded: "Since he is the Potions Professor, there is nothing wrong with you building a good relationship with him."

Harry stood up helplessly, a little afraid of meeting another fanatical girl in the aisle.

But in the end, he walked out.

Arriving at Slughorn's compartment, Harry found that there were already many other people here.

Harry didn't recognize most of them, but to Harry's relief, Lu Ke and Johanna were both here.

Slughorn was talking to Johanna at this time, his face was full of surprise.

"So all the business of the Shafiq family is now handed over to... Lu Ke?"

Lu Ke stood aside with an expressionless face, while Johanna smiled proudly, as if their conversation had nothing to do with Lu Ke.

Slughorn noticed Harry coming in and greeted him with a smile.

Then he turned around and told everyone here about one of their rich or famous relatives. He looked so calm and relaxed, as if Director Wang made everyone feel at home at his dinner party, and could say a few words to the Tianzhu monk. Lanja.

With such demeanor, even Lu Ke, who didn't like Slughorn's style and watched with cold eyes, was a little impressed.

But Harry didn't like it very much, because Slughorn quickly revealed his true nature. After he heard that a Slytherin actually didn't have a good relationship with his famous uncle, he quickly showed his deliberate alienation towards him.

Of course, Slughorn showed no disrespect at all towards the famous savior Harry Potter.

The only person Slughorn didn't know how to deal with was probably Lu Ke. He stood expressionlessly next to the smiling Johanna, the only person who was out of place in the harmonious atmosphere of the cubicle.

But Slughorn didn't waste time on Lu Ke at all. He had his own way of maintaining the atmosphere of the banquet. People like Lu Ke had already figured it out. After all, he didn't make a fuss and disturb the place. group.

Although the atmosphere of the party was good, Harry insisted on leaving because he didn't like Slughorn's behavior.

Johanna duly mentioned that it was getting dark and Hogwarts was almost here.

Slughorn called the party to an end crisply, though he was actually somewhat reluctant.

Harry was very happy that he could finally return to Hermione and Ron. Although the members of Slughorn's Slughorn Club got to know each other and expand their contacts, which was a big benefit, Harry was obviously not the kind of person who was particularly enthusiastic and friendly. People who are good at making friends.

Johanna and Luke followed Harry down the aisle together.

"Do you think Slughorn is..."

Lu Ke shook his head: "Professor."

"He is just an ordinary person. Your requirements for the moral level of Hogwarts professors are too high."

Harry shook his head: "I just don't think what he did was right..."

Johanna smiled: "Don't pay too much attention, he will definitely not do this in class, and you probably won't participate in his club activities in the future, right?"

Harry nodded helplessly, but his bad impression of Slughorn probably would not change.

Together they walked to the compartment where Lu Ke and Johanna were before, and they turned to say goodbye to Harry.

"By the way, tell Hermione not to get close to Malfoy, he is very unconscious right now."

Harry was stunned for a moment.

Lu Ke glanced at him: "What's wrong?"

Harry shook his head: "Nothing...it's just that I seemed to have forgotten something at Professor Slughorn's place."

Lu Ke shook his head: "Go back and get it."

Then Harry turned and left.

As soon as he walked through the door of the compartment, he took out his invisibility cloak.

During the long summer vacation, Harry had been wondering what Malfoy was doing in the shop in Knockturn Alley. He was now a Death Eater and was definitely not planning anything good.

Now is an opportunity. Malfoy did not attend the prefects' meeting. He must be hiding and plotting something. Maybe he can find some clues now.

Harry walked invisible down the aisle and soon found the compartment where Malfoy was.

Malfoy was sitting in the cubicle, opposite Crabbe and Goyle, and beside him was Pansy Parkinson.

All three looked happy, and Pansy Pankinson looked at Malfoy the way those fangirls looked at Harry.

But Malfoy looked gloomy.

He didn't seem to like it here, let alone the few people around him.

Harry sneered silently.

Lu Ke once told him that Crabbe, Goyle, and Pansy Parkinson's father were all Death Eaters, and they all died at the hands of Lu Ke before the summer vacation.

But looking at their current appearance, they have long since recovered from their grief, not to mention that they should all have inherited the family property.

The inheritance of a pure-blood family is very rich, Harry could tell just by looking at the toys in the hands of three people.

This should be a standard gathering of quasi-Death Eaters, among whom Malfoy has the highest status.

Harry hoped this would make Malfoy get carried away and say something.

But this requires patience.

Harry stood carefully at the door, leaning against the crack, waiting for the opportunity to arise.

But what disappointed him was that while the other three talked nonsense, Malfoy was exactly the opposite.
