Slytherin's salvation is nothingness

Outside a private dental clinic in London, a girl wearing a visor that covered half of her face rang the doorbell.

Mr. Granger opened the door and found a young girl wearing a black dress with long hair hanging down her shoulders. After she took off her sunhat, her impeccable and delicate facial features were revealed, as well as her deeply attractive blue eyes.

The girl's voice was clear and clear, and her tone was calm and gentle, "Hello, Mr. Granger. I am Hermione's classmate, Cyrus Slytherin, and I have an appointment with her today."

Before the man could react, Hermione's voice came from behind, "Dad, this is my friend. We have an appointment to go out together today. Cyrus has never visited this world."

After understanding this, Hermione's father enthusiastically invited Cyrus in, but Hermione held him back. "Dad, we are in a hurry. Let's wait until we finish shopping. Let's go out!" Then he took Cyrus's arm and pulled him. He followed her downstairs.

Until the two of them came to the corner, Hermione looked behind her and looked at Cyrus mysteriously, "Cyrus, what is the important thing? Is it about the mysterious man? I went to Weasley a while ago. I heard something when I was home. After the Triwizard Tournament, Harry also said that someone was pretending to be Professor Moody. What happened?! And recently, the Ministry of Magic has been issuing notices against you..."

Facing a series of questions thrown by Hermione, Cyrus smiled, then snapped his fingers to interrupt Hermione, "Kool, bring Kate."

After a while, Kate was brought over in a daze. Seeing her tired face, Cyrus said apologetically: "It seems that our Miss Kate is very diligent. How about giving you a day off today. Have you ever visited the Muggle world? A good friend of mine volunteered to be a guide. .”

Hermione blinked and looked at Cyrus, then looked at Kate who had accepted her fate with a helpless expression, "Huh? Did you really just ask me to go shopping??"

Cyrus sits on a sofa in a store at Harrods, a luxury shopping mall in London. Kate and Hermione walked in and out of the fitting room with helpless expressions, changing many sets of clothes.

Cyrus took the drink handed to him by the clerk, took a sip curiously, shuddered, stuck out his numb tongue and said: "This is Coke, it really tastes...happy? What else are you novel about?" thing?"

Hermione hurriedly stepped forward to interrupt Cyrus and said to the store clerk: "She was joking. Can you change it for me? This set is too mature."

Under the strange gaze of the store clerk, Hermione sat next to Cyrus, "Cyrus, are you really here to go shopping? Why don't you try it on yourself?" Kate also walked out of the fitting room at this time, "Cyrus Miss, no, boss, can you please stop being so arbitrary... I still have work to do with Remus today."

Cyrus looked at the two of them and nodded with satisfaction, "Kate, what you usually wear is too rigid. This is great. Hermione, too. This is called mature charm, understand? Just change it like this, by the way. Take me to other places to see, the perfume here is too pungent."

Then he looked at the clerk and said, "Help me wrap up everything they tried on." As they were about to snap their fingers, Hermione and Kate grabbed Cyrus one by one, "Let me do it and let them deliver the things to your friend's house." .”

Cyrus smiled awkwardly and then took out a thick wad of bills from his pocket, "Sorry, I'm used to it."

"Cyrus, don't just jump off the escalator...even if it's slow, don't just jump up in the air!"

"Boss, although I haven't been to the Muggle world much, at least I know that those moving vehicles are different from Mr. Weasley's. They can't fly."

"Yes, Cyrus, those dishes are served by the service staff personally. This is their job. You can't give them a thick stack of bills. Even the service fee will not exceed 20% of the meal price."

"Boss, how did you obtain the shares of the Muggle World Company before? Well... of course I know they are a group of snobs who will get things done if they are given money."

"Cyrus, this is not a camera like the one in the magical world that can make the picture move. It can only take ordinary photos that cannot move."

"Hello sir, let's go to Privet Drive." Cyrus was sitting in a taxi playing with a camera. Next to him was Kate carrying large and small bags and Hermione who was physically and mentally exhausted.

She looked at Cyrus suspiciously after hearing the name of the road he mentioned, "Privet Drive? That's not where Harry lives."

Cyrus fiddled with the camera and then threw it to Hermione, "Hermione, do you know how to use it? Teach me."

"If you're just taking pictures...wait a minute, Cyrus, what are you going to do? Mr. Weasley specifically told us that we can't contact Harry in the near future. The mysterious man's target is most likely him. How can we go to where he lives now? "

After hearing Hermione's words, Kate also became cautious and looked at Cyrus seriously, "Boss, what do you need me to do?" Cyrus looked at the street scene flashing through the window, "What else can be done, we are just here Ignorant tourist on tour.”

Harry was sitting on the swing in the park with a resentful look on his face. Since the end of the Triwizard Tournament, he had been filled with doubts that had no answers. Why did Cyrus win the trophy with a man pretending to be Professor Moody? Was she the one who attacked her and Cedric? Principal Dumbledore said nothing to him, and Cyrus could not be found all day long.

He didn't know Cyrus's address at all. During his vacation, he mailed countless letters to Hermione and others, but all he got was their perfunctory response. Sirius stopped visiting him and only said in a few letters that he was very happy. busy. He was getting no news from the wizarding world and felt like everyone was shutting him out.

"Hey, our sissy is talking to herself again!" Dally and his friends stood opposite Harry. Harry was in a depressed mood and didn't want to pay attention to them.

Harry's ignorance made Dali even more aggressive, "I know that your so-called friends don't want to talk to you at all during the holidays. Sad people, they are calling their names even in their dreams. Who is Cyrus? No Could it be your secret crush? First your parents, then your friends, everyone left you."

"enough!"

Harry took out his wand and rushed forward to put it on Dali's neck. Several people around him seemed to be amused by Harry's provocation with a wooden stick, but Dali looked nervous.

The calm sky suddenly became covered with dark clouds and strong winds blew. "What did you do?!" Dali looked at Harry in horror. Harry looked at the familiar scenes, and the ominous premonition in his heart became stronger.

An icy cold air hit him. Harry pulled up Dali and shouted, "Run!" Dali's friends around him had already run away. The two of them ran into a tunnel one after another. Harry had already I saw two dementors chasing behind me.

Why do dementors appear? ! Aren't they supposed to be in Azkaban? Dali accidentally fell, and a dementor rushed towards Dali who fell to the ground. Another Dementor also appeared above Harry, "Patronus..."

Harry pointed his wand at the Dementor but was suppressed by a hand. Before Harry could see who it was, he saw the figure rushing towards Dali. "Bang!" The sound of "Bang!" kicked Dali's strong body far away, and then a silver halo appeared, and a silver giant snake knocked away the dementor above Harry's head, and it entangled itself around Harry to block it. Ice cold air.

Then a bird's cry came out, and a silver phoenix flashed directly on Dali and drove away another dementor.

"Oh, using dementors to play dirty tricks makes it seem like there's no one behind me."

Harry recognized the person, "Cyrus?! How could you..."

"Harry! Cyrus! Are you okay?" Hermione ran over anxiously, with a silver-blue phoenix still on her shoulder.

Cyrus took back the pendant on his chest, and then the three silver patron saints disappeared.

She threw the wand to Harry, then looked at Dali who was lying on the ground stunned. She picked up the branches scattered on the ground and poked Dali, "You can't keep your eyes open even if you pretend to be asleep, brother." Then she took it out of the ring. A bottle of demulcent, "Harry, help your cousin feed it."

She handed the potion to Harry and then simply told Hermione: "Go back with him, I'll be there shortly."

"What?! Someone saves them, and there are three Patron Saints?! Are you kidding me!" Umbridge, who was not far away, glared at the two Dementors fiercely, "You can't do anything well. ! Go back quickly, don’t be seen by others!”

Just after the Dementors left, Umbridge was about to apparate away when there was a flash of light and the click of a camera behind her.

"Kate, are you done taking pictures? I'm very photogenic. Come on, come on, take two more pictures."

One hand tightly grasped Umbridge, and she was almost forced to face her, "Hey, isn't this a model worker from the Ministry of Magic? Why, Minister Fudge sent you to do something again? Tsk, I have to say, this I only want to be in the top position, so I have to do all the dirty work."

Three or four more flashes of light appeared in succession. Umbridge's head was dizzy due to the flash, and she quickly shook off the opponent's hand. After seeing Cyrus's face, she looked stunned. She hurriedly pretended to be calm and tried her best to suppress the anger and surprise in her heart.

"Miss Slytherin, why are you here?"

Cyrus ignored it, took out a handkerchief and carefully wiped the hand he had just grabbed Umbridge, and with the resentment in the other person's eyes, he said to Kate who was holding the camera: "Kate, what did you just see?"

Kate smiled like a customer service professional, "Boss, originally I was just waiting for you and Miss Granger to visit your friend, but I saw Ms. Umbridge sneaking around. It's really strange, it's me. Are you dazzled? You also saw two dementors following her."

Cyrus made a very surprised expression, "That's too bad. Are the Dementors coming out from Azkaban to show off? Why are there two at Harry's side... Or are they the same two?" But, Ms. Umbridge, can you explain to me their attack on Muggles and underage wizards?"

Umbridge's face turned green and purple, "Well, I think Miss Slytherin saw it wrong. I just happened to pass by and didn't see the dementors you mentioned at all."

Seeing Cyrus show off to himself the photo of himself and her in the camera, the scenery of Privet Drive behind him was very sobering.

"Kate. You still need to practice more. Why are the photos of the two of us so blurry, but the street sign of Privet Drive behind us is so clear?"

Kate leaned forward slightly and pressed a button on the camera, "It's okay boss, the other photo shows you two clearly. You can clearly see the wrinkles on Ms. Umbridge's face."

Umbridge wanted to grab the camera, but Kate slapped her face first. She hurriedly protected Cyrus, "It seems that she approached you, boss, with premeditation, and even wanted to attack you."

Cyrus huddled behind Kate and said weakly: "Then what should I do, Kate? She won't hurt me, right?"

As soon as these words came out, even Kate's face was filled with black lines. Are you having fun acting here?

"First, two Dementors suddenly attacked Muggles and your friends, and then I saw this lady communicating with them. Now she is furious and trying to attack you. I think informing the Ministry of Magic is the safest and most sensible decision."

Cyrus raised the corner of his mouth and snapped his fingers, "Kul, call me Fu..."

"You don't have any substantive evidence! What you say is baseless, I just happened to show up! Who knows if you are telling lies! This is slandering Ministry of Magic officials and warning you not to make up lies at will!!"

Umbridge's sharp and harsh voice was really a torture to Cyrus. She rubbed her numb ears, "Really? So what does the pink lady mean, let's meet in the Approval Office of the Ministry of Magic?"

Cyrus held the camera in his hand and looked at Umbridge's pink outfit with a look of disgust, "Do you think that after Fudge knows that your mission failed, he will push you out as a scapegoat, or will he not hesitate to shake himself?" Can you protect your status? I heard that Ms. Umbridge will become a special official of the Ministry of Magic to enter Hogwarts this year. As the vanguard of the first battle between the Ministry of Magic and Dumbledore, she has a bright future. Unfortunately, you dare Are you betting on our minister’s trust in you?”

Umbridge was powerless to refute Cyrus's words, feeling restless in her heart, "Kate, if you were in Ms. Umbridge's situation, what would you do?"

"I have been on my knees sincerely longing for Miss Slytherin."

Umbridge's chest heaved violently, and she showed a very disgusting smile. Her clenched teeth were almost broken, "I respect Miss Slytherin very much. As Minister Fudge's very trustworthy and excellent subordinate, I don't want to care." I can help Miss Dow Slytherin with anything."

Cyrus raised his eyelids lightly, as if he didn't want to take another look at the woman in front of him, and his tone was extremely cold, "I think Ms. Umbridge didn't understand what Kate meant by kneeling."

The anger in Umbridge's eyes turned into a ball of fire, the smile froze on her face, and just when she was about to lose control of herself, a gentle chuckle sounded. Cyrus took back the camera, with no concealment of contempt in his eyes, "Sorry, the joke was over. I believe in Ms. Umbridge's ability. We just happened to pass by today and enthusiastically saved Harry and the others, but we didn't see them. Others. The Dementors are missing. As for the entanglement with the Ministry of Magic, I don’t think I’ll be affected, right? You can just report back to Fudge as usual.”

Umbridge nodded stiffly, then sneered, "Haha, yes, even if it is a misunderstanding, the Ministry of Magic will definitely not make things difficult for you. I have never seen Miss Slytherin, and I have never appeared here."

He was about to retreat but was held tightly by Cyrus, "I've always been curious about the prophecy that Fudge has been hiding. I think his most loyal men must know it."

Feeling the weight on her shoulders getting heavier, Umbridge nodded quickly, "Minister Fudge has been going to the Department of Mysteries these days, but, I don't know what exactly it is."

"Then find a way to find out."

"Kate, thank you for your hard work. Let's go to Harry's house for dinner. Ms. Dursley's cooking is quite delicious."

Cyrus and Kate left, and Kate cast a look of contempt before leaving. Umbridge clenched her fists, her eyes were about to burst into flames, and apparated away with a bang.

"Boss, if you keep this kind of person, sooner or later, he will do something behind his back." Kate looked at the direction Umbridge was leaving and frowned. Cyrus nodded, "Keep her just to wait for her to be clever, don't worry about her. . But you are really awesome, worthy of being Slytherin’s second-in-command.”

Kate pursed her lips, "I want to join the Order of the Phoenix. I know Remus and the others are preparing to meet Voldemort. I also want to help you!"

"Not afraid of death?"

"Only by defeating Voldemort will you not die."

"I am not the leader of the Order of the Phoenix. If you want to join, just go to Dumbledore and tell him. I will not open a back door for you... Don't follow my example and call me by my first name. A petty person like this may tell you one day he will do it behind your back." Let’s cast a life-killing curse.”

Kate covered her mouth to hold back her laughter, "Boss, has anyone ever said that you are awkward?"

"What kind of twisting method?"

"He just has a kind, sharp kindness."
