Traveling through Hogwarts, just wanting to have a love affair

Phoenix's heart skipped a beat, he knew that this would not be accomplished so easily.

If it weren't for Astoria, he wouldn't have approached this old fox to discuss cooperation, and he wouldn't necessarily have sold himself out.

Phoenix sorted out his thoughts and said:

"Headmaster Dumbledore, I have a certain gift for prophecy, but I cannot control this matter."

"I also learned about the location of Slytherin's heir and the Chamber of Secrets from the prophecy a few days ago."

As Phoenix spoke, he kept practicing Occlumency and tried to keep his expression calm and composed.

Headmaster Dumbledore was obviously surprised. He held his eyes and said with emotion:

"The gift of prophecy? It's a miraculous gift."

"Thinking back to those days..."

"Well, forget it, let's not talk about it. Let's discuss the specific actions for tonight."

Although Phoenix was somewhat curious about what Headmaster Dumbledore didn't say, he decided to catch the basilisk first.

It would be best to do it before Astoria is discharged from the hospital, so that Astoria doesn't get scared again.

“Let’s first…”

"........."

"..."

Soon, it was time for breakfast.

Phoenix dragged his extremely tired body and slowly walked towards the auditorium.

He stayed up all night last night, and now he was not only extremely sleepy, but also felt weak all over.

Phoenix looked around and saw no one around him, which made him feel lost.

"Alas, the first day Astoria is away. I miss her..."

Phoenix muttered to himself as he walked into the auditorium.

He was originally planning to walk directly to the Slytherin table and sit down, but at this moment, Draco suddenly appeared.

"Phoenix, come sit with me!"

Draco extended an invitation to Phoenix enthusiastically, and asked with feigned curiosity:

"By the way, why didn't Astoria come with you?"

Draco had a seemingly innocent smile on his face, but Phoenix always felt that there was something sinister hidden in that smile.

In response to Draco's question, Phoenix answered truthfully:

"Astoria fainted yesterday and is now receiving treatment in the school infirmary. Madam Pomfrey said she needs to rest for two days, so Astoria will stay in the infirmary for the next two days."

Phoenix said with some distress: "Alas..."

"Ah, Astoria fainted? Is she sick?"

Draco asked with a concerned look on his face, but he was secretly delighted because he heard that Phoenix had been alone for the past two days.

"No, Madam Pomfrey said..."

Phoenix was about to tell the truth, but on second thought, he decided to keep it secret for the time being.

After all, it wouldn't be too late to tell everyone after he and Headmaster Dumbledore successfully caught the basilisk tonight.

Draco felt a little disappointed when he saw that he had not been able to get any useful information out of Phoenix, but he quickly adjusted his mood and then smiled and invited:

"Phoenix, since you have no one to eat with you now, why not come and join us."

"Ah?" Phoenix was obviously a little surprised. He didn't expect Draco to suddenly make such an invitation.

However, he thought about it for a moment and felt that this might be a good opportunity to understand the dynamics of Draco and others, so he nodded and agreed.

Phoenix glanced at Harry and the other two sitting at the Gryffindor table, carefully pointed his finger at them, and asked in confusion:

"With them?"

"Yes, yes, come quickly, you are so lonely."

As he said that, Draco pushed Phoenix to the Gryffindor table without saying a word, found Harry and the other two, and pressed Phoenix to sit next to Hermione.

Hermione gave Draco an appreciative look, and Draco secretly made an "OK" gesture, indicating:

"I'll take action, absolutely no problem."

"Come, let me introduce you. This is my brother, Phoenix Malfoy."

"Phoenix, this is Hermione Granger, Ron Weasley, and the famous Harry Potter. You must have heard of them."

"Hello, Phoenix, I'm Hermione, nice to meet you."

"I'm Ron, nice to meet you."

"I'm Harry."

Harry and the other two greeted Phoenix enthusiastically, which made Phoenix feel a little uncomfortable.

Last time in Hagrid's hut, they looked bitter and resentful, but why are they suddenly so enthusiastic now?

There must be something wrong when things are abnormal, especially when it is related to the protagonist.

Phoenix secretly became alert, wondering what these people were trying to do.

But Phoenix didn’t show it and responded with a smile:

"Hi, I'm Phoenix."

A few of them began to chat about some interesting things about Hogwarts, and the atmosphere was relaxed and pleasant.

Hermione seemed to ask casually at this time:

"Phoenix, the secret room incident has been making a lot of noise lately, what do you think?"

Phoenix thought:

"Here they come. They've revealed their fox tails."

Phoenix looked respectful and said:

"I believe that Headmaster Dumbledore will find the heir of Slytherin and kill the monster in the Chamber of Secrets very quickly."

"Maybe when we wake up tomorrow morning, we'll hear about Headmaster Dumbledore killing a monster."

Hermione looked doubtful and somewhat unwilling, and wanted to ask something else, but was interrupted by Phoenix's words.

"By the way, I saw you guys wandering into the library yesterday. I went there to look for Astoria and I's Charms homework. What about you guys?"

Phoenix said with a grin, feeling proud.

"Little guy, I can't beat you. This is called taking the initiative."

Harry and the other three all looked changed, and looked at Phoenix carefully, while exchanging glances with each other:

"Does Phoenix know that we are following him? Are we exposed?"

"I don't know. It would be terrible if we were discovered. We finally managed to call Phoenix out alone while Astoria was away. If he noticed, it would really alert the enemy!"

"Don't worry, let me try it again."

At this time, Hermione, who was in charge of intelligence, gave everyone a reassuring look, and then explained to Phoenix:

"I wanted to go to the library to find a book last night, so I asked them to accompany me. Unfortunately, we were seen by Filch, and we ran for a long time before we got rid of him."

"Hey, we actually saw you yesterday. We wanted to go up and say hello, but you walked too fast. By the time we caught up with you, you had already entered the library."

"And after we entered the library, we didn't see you again. Instead, we saw Filch..."

"Well... you guys were miserable. I used the Disillusionment Charm at the time, which is similar to the effect of the Invisibility Cloak. Plus, I'm quite proficient in the Disillusionment Charm, so I was able to avoid Filch."

When Hermione and the others saw that Phoenix didn't show any unnecessary expression, their hearts finally settled down and they let out a breath, as if their whole bodies felt a lot more relaxed.

It seems that Phoenix did not notice anything unusual and they still have a chance to continue with their plan.

Just then, Harry suddenly spoke.

He felt a little guilty and thought it was inappropriate to let Hermione face the difficulties alone, so he asked with some curiosity:

"Phoenix, what did Headmaster Dumbledore say when he left you and Astoria alone that day?"

After hearing Harry's question, Phoenix still kept a gentle smile on his face, but deep in his heart he had an urge to beat Harry up.

The name Astoria is not something that anyone can call! How could this guy be so rude?
