Hogwarts card wizard

"Lily, Ken and Mary, these three students are really great! Considering that they are Muggle-born, this is even more rare!" Slughorn said sincerely.

Harry didn't know Slughorn well, and was upset when he heard that, and said, "It's okay, one of our friends is also Muggle-born. She was the best in the whole class, no, the whole school. "

"No no!" Slughorn said hastily, "Kids, please don't think I'm biased. I'm just talking things out, especially Lily, you know? Harry! She's one of my favorite students. By the way , let you have a look!"

With that said, Slughorn went to the cupboard and took out a suitcase.

Then he said helplessly to the two of them: "It's not good to move often. You always have to pack your things. You know, there will always be some precious things when you get older."

He pulled out his wand and waved it at the suitcase.

The suitcase opened and began to expand and grow. After a while, a display rack appeared in front of the two of them.

The display racks were filled with photographs of Slughorn with others and some alone, many of which were even signed.

Harry saw his mother in one of the group photos, holding a glass of wine and standing next to Slughorn in a costume, and everyone in the photo was full of heartfelt smiles.

Kevin also saw his parents, and even had a single photo of his father with his signature on it.

"These are my students, former students," Sluthorn said proudly.

Harry asked curiously, "Mr. Horace, were you at Hogwarts before?"

"Of course!" Slughorn laughed.

Kevin explained: "Mr. Horace was once the head of Slytherin!"

"Slytherin!?" Harry asked in surprise.

Clearly he didn't believe a Slytherin could be so gracious.

Seeing Harry's expression, Slughorn smiled and said: "I know many people have said that I am wrong. But I am not a discriminator. I like those smart students, but it doesn't mean I hate other students." student."

Harry nodded appreciatively.

Sluthorn began to introduce his "collection" to the two, saying: "I think you should recognize Barnabas Guffey. Editor-in-Chief of the Daily Prophet, I always let the owl tell me about the current situation." pass on his opinion to him.”

"And your father, Kevin! When they just graduated, I suggested that he engage in business activities in the wizarding world, but unfortunately this idea failed to materialize. But I heard that you have opened shops all over the wizarding world, I It’s a very wise choice.”

"By the way, Harry! I heard that you have a soft spot for Quidditch, and you are even the youngest Seeker at Hogwarts. Then I think you must know her."

Slughorn pointed to a female player on a flying broom.

"Gwenog Jones!" Harry said in surprise, "Of course I know her, the captain of the Holyhead Harpies, the only team in the league whose players are all women The team! I didn't expect that she is also your student."

Slughorn said proudly: "Of course! You know? I can get free tickets anytime, but I haven't watched Quidditch for a long time!"

……

At this time, Harry's eyes stopped on a group photo, which was a photo of Slughorn and the main players of the Slytherin Quidditch team.

And here was a picture of someone Harry knew but hadn't met.

Slughorn saw Harry pick up the picture and said, "Oh! This one. See the man sitting next to me? Regulus Black!"

Regulus Black, Sirius' younger brother.Sirius once said that he was a very smart person, but it was a pity that he joined the Death Eaters.

After Sirius was expelled from the Black family, he was never seen again, and it is said that he was killed.

But Slughorn didn't seem to know the relationship between Harry and Sirius. He said: "You should know his brother Sirius. He died not long ago. I taught the Black family, except for Sirius, really pity!"

Slathorn said regretfully: "He is very talented. At that time, I only accepted his younger brother as my apprentice."

Looking at Regulus, Harry couldn't help but think of his godfather.

Just as Harry was immersed in the memory, Dumbledore's voice came.

"Horace, can I have this?"

The three turned their heads and saw Dumbledore walking in with a fashion magazine and smiling.

Dumbledore happily looked at the female models on the cover of the magazine, and could see that he really liked the magazine.

"I like sweater knitting patterns very much." Dumbledore said with a smile like a child.

Slughorn looked unhappy, and said impatiently, "Take it! You're leaving now, aren't you?"

Dumbledore said with a smile: "Of course, I think it's better for me to be more knowledgeable. It's a pity. I think it would be my greatest honor if you agreed to go back to Hogwarts. But you are like Ellie and Potter. , full of personality. Well, goodbye old friend, the current situation is very serious recently, you have to take care!"

Slughorn was a little confused. Originally, he had already prepared Dumbledore's stalking offensive, but now Dumbledore suddenly said that he wanted to leave, which made him feel like he had punched cotton, saying no It's awkward.

Kevin smiled and left with Dumbledore.

When he came outside the door, Harry asked puzzledly: "Professor, I think Mr. Horace is very good, why don't you fight for it?"

Kevin once said that the four colleges of Hogwarts have produced heroes, great wizards, and bad guys.

It's just that Harry never thought that Slytherin could be a good person. After meeting Slughorn today, Harry changed his mind. He thought Horace Slughorn was a perfect Slughorn.

Now the school's professorships are almost full, and the only thing missing is the cursed Defense Against the Dark Arts.Harry felt that Dumbledore must have invited Slughorn to be the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor. It would be great if the new school had such a professor.

Dumbledore didn't answer Harry, but stopped outside the gate.

Harry didn't know why, and asked, "What? Are we not leaving?"

Kevin laughed and said, "Professor, you're really good at playing hard to get! You've taken Mr. Horace to death!"

"Huh?" Harry looked at Kevin in surprise, and asked, "What does this mean?"

After Harry finished speaking, he heard the sound of the door opening behind him.

Slughorn in pajamas came out and said, "Okay! I admit you won, Albus! I promise you! But you have to give me Professor Mellors' old office."

Galatea Meles, former Defense Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts.And he was the last professor before Voldemort put a curse on the position, so he stayed in this position for 50 years.

Slughorn and Dumbledore's professors, and worked together for many years after they were given Hogwarts appointments.

"Also! It's not peaceful now. You have to give me a raise in order to repay me."

After finishing speaking, he hurriedly looked around and quickly retreated into the room.

"Hehe!" Dumbledore laughed and said, "He's still the same as before."

Harry asked in surprise, "How did you know Mr. Horace would come out and he would agree."

Kevin laughed: "Use your brain, buddy! You can see that too, Mr. Horace! Oh no! He should be called Professor Slughorn. He likes "celebrity" very much, this should be his collection addiction."

Harry understood, and smiled wryly: "So, you used Kevin and me as a weapon, right? Professor."

Dumbledore rolled his eyes mischievously and said, "At least it's useful, isn't it?"

"I don't think it's just because of us." Kevin said, "Just now you said that the situation is serious. And Professor Slughorn is most afraid of being approached by Death Eaters, but at Hogwarts because of teaching you Now, at least for now, it's safe."

"Good guy!" Harry laughed, "This really took him to death!"

"Ha ha!"
