Being a bastard at Hogwarts is not safe.

"Snape must have done it," Ron said angrily.

Harry broke his arm because he accidentally dropped the broom. Madam Pomfrey had just healed it, and now he needed a good rest.

After Madam Pomfrey and Professor McGonagall left, the three quickly told Brian about the sudden loss of control of Harry's broom during the Quidditch match.

"But how do you know that Snape did it?" Brian asked, frowning.

"It's Snape." It was Hermione who spoke, "I saw Snape staring at Harry's broom and reciting spells silently, without even taking his eyes off."

Hermione never felt that Snape was embarrassing Harry, she always thought that they were not doing well enough, until she saw it with her own eyes this time.

Brian naturally did not agree with their thoughts, he pondered a few times, with a puzzled look on his face.

Of course, it was impossible for Snape to attack Harry in full view of the Quidditch tournament. First of all, his indebtedness to Lily led him to betray Voldemort in exchange for Dumbledore's protection of Harry at the dangerous price of being an undercover agent among the Death Eaters.So no matter how much he hated James Potter, it was impossible for him to do black hands to Harry.

Secondly, as a master figure in potion science, Snape only needed a few simple ingredients to make a colorless and odorless poison.Even if he really regretted it at this moment, he wouldn't use such a low-level method.

So Snape could only be like in the original book, when the incident happened, he noticed something was reciting the counter-curse to save Harry.

Brian hesitated for a moment before asking, "But Snape came down to save us on Halloween. If...I mean, if he really wanted to harm Harry, why would he?"

Several people understood what he meant, but Hermione obviously still had a somewhat skeptical attitude, and said: "I read the scriptures on silent casting in the library, and the caster must keep looking at the target of the spell. able to succeed."

Harry muttered wryly, "I don't know if it's Snape, I just know he's always been very hostile to me."

Brian knew that it was better to say less than to say more at this time, and it was better not to say less, because Snape's long-standing venomous tongue and mocking of Harry and the people around Harry made several people dissatisfied with him for a long time. No explanation could dispel their suspicions.

Brian had already drank the magic power recovery potion, and he was standing beside Harry's bed, frowning and pondering whether there was any possibility of Voldemort re-infiltrating Hogwarts.

In the original book, Quirrell cursed Voldemort's broom during the Quidditch competition in order to help Voldemort get rid of Harry.But now that Quirrell has been controlled by Voldemort and escaped from Hogwarts, then who is trying to murder Harry in the dark.

After careful analysis, the possibility that Voldemort is actually near Hogwarts is not small, because his current state is too weak, and he still needs the blood of unicorns in the forbidden area to maintain a state that will not perish. The temptation may exceed one's own estimation.

For Voldemort, resurrection means getting everything he once had, instead of being inhuman and ghostless as he is now.

Most likely, he sneaked into Hogwarts again now, and even changed his body.

But, why take the risk of attacking Harry at this time.

This will obviously expose his tracks, and Dumbledore will start to be wary of him.

Although Brian had doubts about Voldemort's intentions, he was basically sure that he had infiltrated Hogwarts again, or that he might be hiding here.

Voldemort had grown greedy for his wand, and in his brutal nature had put himself in danger.He could get Nagini to kill Snape, who was ostensibly loyal to him, to get the Elder Wand, not to mention having sabotaged his plan to get the Sorcerer's Stone.

But fortunately, there is already a way of thinking, and we can still gain something by following this way of thinking.After all, Voldemort's current state can only be possessed by other people, and it is called parasitism in terms of special terms.

Slytherin students may be more likely to be seduced by him, but others cannot be ruled out.In the middle, he also needs to refer to who has left Hogwarts during this period to give him an opportunity, or whether Voldemort has not left here at all.

To be on the safe side, Brian didn't intend to involve himself in this matter.

Dealing with Voldemort is not about protecting oneself. There are many twists and turns in it, involving Dumbledore.

So what needs to be done now?

Naturally, I would go to Dumbledore and report the situation and personal speculation to Dumbledore, so that the risks that need to be borne could be resolved in advance, and at the same time, I would not need to consume too much brain power.

So after thinking twice, Brian decided to write a letter to Dumbledore.After all, this matter is too big, Dumbledore will definitely know, and it is impossible to hide it.It would be better to let Dumbledore worry about Harry's safety, find Voldemort to resolve the risk, and express his loyalty to justice by the way.

This is the safest way to deal with it.

After making up his mind, Brian relaxed and joined the discussion with Harry and the others.

......

After some time, Brian received a reply from Dumbledore. In the letter, the old headmaster said that he already knew about this matter, and only expressed his gratitude and appreciation for Brian's intention to protect the school and the correct way of handling it in words. At the same time, he stated that he would investigate the matter as soon as possible.

Hehe, it's an old routine letter.Brian let out a haha ​​and threw the letter under the bookcase in the Room of Requirement.This place has completely become his private place. Since he discovered that everything here will not disappear with the passage of time, he no longer needs to use a backpack to transport large batches of materials back and forth every day.

This must be praised, it is very humane.

Brian stood lazily in his pajamas by the fireplace and stretched his waist.

The time has now entered December, and the weather outside has become colder and colder. There was even a heavy snowfall a few nights ago. Fortunately, before the heavy snowfall, the students of Hogwarts had finished their last holiday before the holiday. One lesson, or they might have to worry about the snow getting in their way home.

Naturally, Brian signed the student registration booklet, because magic cannot be used in the Muggle world, which would reduce Brian's practice time.At the same time, since he was being targeted by Voldemort, it was unclear whether he was on or off campus at the moment, so it was safer to stay in a place like Hogwarts with Dumbledore.

He sent a letter to Eleanor and Ted with an owl, briefly explaining that he wanted to stay here to practice magic, and expressed his great apology for not being able to go home on Christmas.

Harry and Ron also signed on the detention list, according to them, in order to have more time to play wizard chess.Brian scoffed at this. Harry probably simply didn't want to go back. If possible, he even wanted to stay at Hogwarts forever so that he wouldn't have to see the Dursleys.

Taking advantage of the warmth and comfort of the house, Brian took out the Anigmas research materials that Professor McGonagall gave him some time ago, and planned to take advantage of this vacation to study on his own, at least to fully memorize it.

But when he lowered his head and saw the preparation of Christmas gifts recorded in the notebook on the table, he suddenly became a little frowning.Without him, there are really not many Jin Jialong around, not to mention that giving gifts is a philosophical problem in ancient and modern China and abroad, which has plagued the world to this day.

What was given to Hermione was his experience notes on learning Transfiguration. Only a small part of his advanced transfiguration skills was enough for Hermione to take the final exam of this semester, and it was a lot beyond the syllabus.

He copied the magic lines summarized in the library and gave them to Fred and George brothers as a Christmas gift to provide them with theoretical help in the cause of making magic items. Then he planned to spend a huge sum of money to buy a brand new set of wizard chess To Ron.

As for Harry's gift, Brian thought about it for a long time and couldn't think of any special hobbies he had.Magic broom?Too expensive, not to mention that he already has Nimbus 2000: Voldemort's head?Can't beat this one.After thinking about it for a long time, I couldn't make up my mind, so I had to wait a few days before thinking about it.

Out of courtesy, he also wrote a letter of thanks to each professor and prepared a little gift.It's not a bad thing to hug the big guys' thighs, not to mention thank you letters and small gifts don't need to spend too much money.

Finally, according to Dumbledore's wish, he sent a pair of woolen socks and a letter paper filled with alchemy questions by owl.

Hey, I can't let you be idle, can I?
