Hogwarts: Slytherin Kiss

"what happened."

Draco grunted unhappily, and then all the lights went out without warning, plunging the carriage and the aisle outside the uncurtained glass door into darkness.

Then there were several more screams and exclamations, as if someone had been stepped on or fallen.

The tips of everyone's wands in the carriage lit up one after another, and they cast fluorescent flashing spells.

"I don't know, there's some chaos in the aisle."

Chucks stood sideways at the door and looked around, and then his voice became louder and faster again.

"Something's coming!"

Chucks took two steps back, holding a small flashlight-like wand in front of him.

I saw a tall and thin gray figure stopped at the door of their carriage, almost reaching the ceiling, floating strangely.

He was wearing a tattered hood and cloak, and underneath the hat there was only darkness like an abyss.

A hand poked out from the darkness under the gray cloak. It was slender and skinny, like a finger bone covered with a layer of dry carrion.

I don't know what the thing inside the hood is. It ignores the wands raised in everyone's hands, but Indra always feels that it can feel that it is not happy.

It stuck its head in and took a long, slow breath, as if trying to grab something other than the surrounding air.

A strong chill flowed to everyone, seeming to soak into the skin and bones, taking away everything. Everyone shivered in unison and turned pale.

Then this strange and broken gray figure didn't seem to find what he needed, and slowly turned around and entered the corridor, disappeared into the darkness, and left.

Chucks, who was closest to the gray shadow, suddenly fell to the ground, trembling and panting.

Indra was the first to come to his senses. Seeing that no one was paying attention to him, she had to reach out and pull him up.

"Is that a dementor?"

Indra read the Daily Prophet and learned that the guards of Azkaban were dementors who could suck away people's happiness and souls.

Sirius Black escaped from such guards.

But the dementors are now searching the Hogwarts train. Do they think Sirius will be hiding here?

"It seems so..."

Draco straightened his tie with lingering fear. He had never seen Dementors with his own eyes. They usually stayed in Azkaban!

Senna: "Are they here to search for prisoners?"

Pure-blood families, especially those from the Twenty-eight Saint Clan, are always more sensitive to the trends in the magical world, because most of their family members have a place in the Ministry of Magic or other institutions.

So obviously Senna, who was born in Macmillan, also knew that the Ministry of Magic was hunting Sirius Black.

It took a while for the lights to return to normal, and the train started heading to Hogwarts again. It seemed that the person they were looking for was not here.

Finally arriving at the platform, everyone walked through the muddy road after the rain and got into more than a hundred carriages waiting there.

Indra, Senna, Draco and Chucks climbed into the same car.

When the carriages filed into the glorious golden gate of Hogwarts, Indra saw a taller Dementor standing on each side.

Thousands of candles were still floating in the auditorium as they had been during the previous two semesters, and the dome was enchanted to turn into the dark cloudy sky outside.

The students who got off the carriage walked towards their own long desks and seats in the academy.

Every year after the seventh-grade students graduate, the seats of the students in each college will be moved to the back, leaving the space closest to the front for the first-year freshmen.

After the freshmen were sorted, Principal Dumbledore stood up and delivered a speech. Indra didn't think there was anything wrong with the headmaster except that he always favored Gryffindors.

As Dumbledore spoke, there was a faint commotion in the Great Hall, as he said that the Dementors would be staying at Hogwarts to carry out Ministry of Magic duties.

"I would like to remind you carefully that dementors will not be fooled by any tricks or disguises. Relying on the invisibility cloak is useless..."

Indra's eyelids jumped when she heard this. Doesn't the invisibility cloak work?

Who has an invisibility cloak?

So does her disguise spell work?

As if he knew what she was thinking, Dumbledore then said gently, "The Disillusionment Curse doesn't work either. Dementors have no human emotions and will not understand any begging or excuses... Don't take the initiative to cause trouble for dementors." , I will send prefects to keep an eye on you..."

"There is still good news to announce..." Dumbledore continued.

Dumbledore then introduced their two new teachers to everyone.

The first is Professor Lupine, who is in this year's Defense Against the Dark Arts class. He is a young man dressed in shabby and simple clothes. He looks very stable and humble, and he keeps bowing.

But everyone sat still, and the sound of applause in the auditorium was sparse. You only need to imagine Professor Lockhart last semester to understand why.

Everyone seemed to have no expectations for the Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher and was very indifferent.

During this gap, Draco leaned back, with a faint mocking smile on his cold eyes and face. He lowered his voice to Harry across the aisle: "Potter! You are really being filmed. Were the ghosts frightened and fainted?"

There was low laughter from all around, and Harry turned to glare at him, his voice filled with anger, "Malfoy..."

Indra clicked her tongue and took Draco's arm to pull him back and sit up.

The last teacher to be announced was Hagrid, who took over as the previous year's Magical Creatures teacher retired and went home.

The first thing Indra did after returning to the Slytherin lounge from the auditorium was to go to Professor Snape's office with a potion experiment record book.

Since he tacitly gave himself a small chance, Indra must also be very active.

Unexpectedly, Indra saw the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Professor Lupine, here.

They seemed to be talking about something before she came in. The atmosphere could be summarized as Professor Snape's one-sided coldness and rejection, while Professor Lupine always seemed tolerant and calm.

God, she actually used the word tolerance, as if Professor Snape was being unreasonable, even though Professor Snape had always been unreasonable when facing Gryffindors.

Indra nodded to Lupine and said hello with a smile, "Hello, Professor."

Lupine also smiled and nodded. Indra put the record book on Snape's big round table and turned around to leave. It seemed that their conversation was not over yet.

Immediately afterwards, Indra went to the library on the fifth floor to read up on Dementors.

She eventually found the most detailed introduction in a book called "Dangerous Magical Creatures of the Dark."

Dementors, as the title of the book suggests, are extremely dangerous dark magical creatures. They have no souls and emotions and are blind. They can only identify people by smell and emotion, and cannot accurately determine which person they are.

And because animals don't have as many emotions as humans, they can't tell them apart.
