Traveling through Hogwarts, just wanting to have a love affair

Phoenix thought for a moment and put the book back to its original place. Just as he turned around and prepared to leave, he suddenly felt a strong desire to take the book with him.

Phoenix thought to himself:

"This book has many uses, and the potions in it are powerful. Isn't this exactly what I need?"

Phoenix almost instinctively wanted to bend down again and pick up the book.

However, at this moment, the brain-blocking technique was automatically activated, and Phoenix regained consciousness instantly.

Just at the moment Phoenix woke up, the head on the book suddenly became hideous and let out an angry roar.

"Hiss, this book is so terrifying. It hid its ability to influence people's hearts at the beginning, but it suddenly attacked me when I let my guard down. Could it be that this book has become a spirit?"

Phoenix shuddered involuntarily and felt that the atmosphere around him was a little chilly, so he hurriedly left the library and walked towards the dormitory.

At the same time, on the other side, Harry and his three companions finally escaped from Filch's pursuit.

They hid in a bush, gasping for breath.

"This...what should we do now? Not only have we not found out Phoenix's purpose, but now we have lost our target."

Harry said between breaths.

"Draco, is Phoenix coming home this Christmas?" Hermione asked at this time.

"No, he said he wanted to accompany Astoria." Draco replied helplessly.

"I have an idea. Professor Snape once talked about a potion in class called Polyjuice Potion."

"We can use Polyjuice Potion to transform into Astoria. Judging from the current situation, Phoenix will never keep any secrets from anyone but Astoria."

Hermione offered a plan and then looked at Draco with pity in her eyes.

Draco's face darkened instantly. What did this mean? If you have any opinions, just say it.

"But won't this reveal a flaw? They are so close and inseparable. It's hard to separate them. You don't want to knock Astoria out, do you? If you do that, Phoenix will definitely come after us and kill us."

Draco asked worriedly at this time, expressing his disapproval of this crude proposal.

Hermione stared into Draco's eyes and said seriously:

"We have no choice!"

On the other side, Phoenix walked to the dormitory door, thought for a while, and then walked towards the school infirmary with brisk steps.

He was really worried about Astoria being alone, so he decided to go and see her, even if it was just a glance from a distance, otherwise he would definitely not be able to sleep tonight.

Not long after, Phoenix walked to the door of the school infirmary. He took a deep breath and tiptoed into the school infirmary.

Relying on his memory from the morning, Phoenix easily found Astoria's bed.

However, to Phoenix's surprise, Astoria was hugging her knees with her hands, her head buried deep in her legs, sobbing softly.

Her originally smooth blonde hair was now a little messy, making her look very adorable.

Phoenix took two steps at a time, walked to Astoria's bed, and asked softly:

"what's wrong?"

Astoria's body trembled noticeably, and Phoenix quickly stepped forward to hug Astoria, whispering again.

"What happened?"

Phoenix also realized something was wrong at this time. He had promised Astoria that she would not learn black magic now. If she was not crying because of this, there must be other reasons.

"Phoenix, why are you here?"

Astoria's voice was a little hoarse and there was a hint of crying.

"I miss you."

Astoria's body became stiffer and her crying became louder.

Phoenix saw this and said:

"Silent and silent!"

"I cast a silencing charm, so cry if you want."

Phoenix did not eagerly ask Astori what happened. He just quietly hugged the girl, patted her back gently, and gave her silent comfort.

Astoria seemed unable to suppress her inner emotions any longer, and her tears gushed out like a flood. She cried bitterly, and her crystal tears kept rolling down, wetting Phoenix's clothes.

Phoenix looked at Astoria distressedly, his heart full of doubts and worries.

He originally thought that he knew the plot very well, but the situation at this moment was completely beyond his expectations.

What is going on here? There is no such plot in the story.

Phoenix realized that he could not rely too much on the plot and he had to have his own judgment and coping ability.

He secretly told himself that he should observe and feel everything around him more keenly and not just rely on the known plot to guide his actions.

In this world full of variables, only by having your own trump cards can you better deal with various emergencies.

He decided to get to know Astoria more carefully from now on and explore her true thoughts and feelings deep in her heart.

He wanted to be her rock and provide her with real support and help.

Phoenix knows that only in this way can he find his own direction in this mysterious and complex world and protect himself and those around him.

Just one six-rod light prison cannot solve all problems.

After the girl's crying gradually subsided, Phoenix gently reached out and wiped the tears from the corners of Astoria's eyes.

The girl's eyes were swollen from crying, and at this moment she was like a poor little cat, lying quietly on Phoenix's chest.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here, you can tell me all your problems, and I will do my best to help you.

"Phoenix comforted softly, but the girl still didn't want to speak, just sobbing softly.

Phoenix felt helpless. He couldn't let Astoria continue to be sad like this.

He decided to take some action to give her some reassurance and cheer her up.

He stroked the girl's hair gently and said in a warm voice:

“Believe me, no matter what difficulties we encounter, we can face them together.

You are not alone and I will always be there for you and support you."

His eyes were full of determination and tenderness, trying to convey a sense of reassurance to the girl.

Gradually, the girl's sobbing became softer. Phoenix continued to comfort her and continued:

"I told you before that I have the gift of prophecy. This gift will gradually become stronger as I grow older. By then, I will be able to know more than one possibility. In other words, I can change many things."

Phoenix wasn't just talking nonsense to reassure Astoria, but he discovered that there was a spell in the side quest called "Prophecy Magus".

And as long as he learns this spell, he should be able to possess the gift of prophecy.

Not to mention that he also has rewards for the main quest, and it is not certain that he will get any good things later.

Astoria slowly raised her head at this time, feeling depressed, and murmured:

"You can't change what you can't do."

Phoenix was a little surprised, Astoria had always believed in him unconditionally, and this was the first time she questioned his ability.

Phoenix couldn't help but pinch Astoria's cheek and said seriously:

"You can always trust me. Even if it means going against the legendary god of death, I am willing to do it for you. So you are not allowed to say that I can't do it."

How could Phoenix, as a man, be told no by a girl? What's more, he was a time traveler and had a system. He didn't believe there was any problem he couldn't solve.

Astoria remained silent and held Phoenix's hand. Phoenix could feel that the girl's hand was extremely cold.

"Oh, Astoria, you silly girl."

Phoenix was helpless. If she didn't tell him, how could he solve this problem? But he didn't ask any more questions. Instead, he tucked Astoria's hair behind her ears.

Lying on the bed with Astoria in his arms, Phoenix said gently:

"Go to sleep. I'll accompany you today."

"Hmm~"

Astoria was still in a bad mood, but as she lay in Phoenix's arms, feeling his warm breath, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

Phoenix patted Astoria's back again and again, humming a bedtime nursery rhyme from his previous life, his eyes full of tenderness.

Astoria seemed tired of crying, and soon she fell asleep leaning on Phoenix's arms.

Phoenix looked at Astoria's pale little face and felt very uncomfortable, thinking:

"I have to ask Daphne sometime. She should know something."

"There is also the basilisk. We can't delay any longer. If I am alone, it will take too much time. I have to find a helper to make the basilisk obey me without killing it."

"Wait, a basilisk?"

Phoenix suddenly seemed to think of something and felt surprised.

"Astoria wouldn't do this for no reason. It must be something I said this morning that irritated her. If you look for a word I said this morning before Astoria fainted, there is only one possible reason."

Basilisk!

Phoenix frowned, a little confused:

"Astoria fainted because of the basilisk, so I must never mention this word in front of her, so Astoria really hates basilisks."

As Phoenix thought about it, murderous intent emerged in his eyes.

"To have made Astoria cry like this, this snake has already met his demise!"
