Blessing Potion [Comprehensive British and American]

Cyril, one head three big, tried his best to keep his expression in the most innocent state, and looked back guiltily at Severus who was pinching his waist like a walnut.

Severus took a deep breath, and said lightly, "I thought you had returned the family crest."

Cyril blinked: "Don't you remind me that I don't remember what that family emblem is."

Severus tilted his head and raised an eyebrow high: "Huh?"

Cyril said dog-leggedly: "What is the family emblem? What is my mother talking about? I feel like I have lost my memory."

Lin Jiu: "..."

———Ms. Lin Jiu, who has been professionally showing affection for 20 years, felt the profound life philosophy of "you always have to pay back when you come out to hang out" for the first time.

"Son, son? So what the French guy asked you for is the family emblem?"

"……Um."

"His family?"

"……what."

"?" Lin Jiu stared at her round eyes, as if you don't explain clearly and we don't want to hang up the video.

"It's just some misunderstanding. It's nothing. We had a good relationship at the time. He said to play with me..." The ending of the word "play" became smaller and smaller under the expressionless gaze of Severus and Lin Jiu's mother, and finally became He let out a hum of unknown meaning.

"Wait! Who gave our Cyril family crest?!" Benny, who had gone back and forth, grabbed his wand and squeezed into the center of the video.

"Benny, Pa--Pa! Why are you here?"

Cyril shrank her neck back, feeling that the situation was a bit "overturned".If my mother Lin Jiu may, maybe, probably still not know the deep meaning of giving the family badge, then Benny definitely knows! ! !

it's over, it's over...

Lin Jiu enthusiastically explained: "It's the French boy brought back by Lin Xiao. He asked me to ask Cyril for something. He said he couldn't face Cyril, and the letter couldn't be sent to Cyril..."

Cyril turned around and glared at the wizard who was still pinching his waist behind him with non-threatening eyes, and complained with his eyes and brain waves: What's the matter that the letter cannot be delivered? !Did you do something again?Hmmmm? ? ?

Severus also replied with calm eyes and brain waves: That kid sent you a postcard once a week, knowing that our relationship is endless, shouldn't I take some measures?

After expressing his point of view with his mind, the black-haired black-eyed wizard pointed out openly and generously: "Three months ago, I asked the post office to help you and him to apply for a unilateral rejection of the letter, and it seems to have passed. Efficiency It's high."

Adhering to the small problem of "guilty heart and shortness of breath" now, Xi Ruier suppressed the sigh: "No wonder I always feel that I have received a few letters recently", such "rebellious" words.

Here, Benny has already roared: "What?! That Frenchman gave our Cyril the family emblem before?!"

Lin Jiu coughed lightly: "Honey, I thought our mother was Italian-French, shouldn't you say such a shameful word as 'French'?"

"Ahem, yes. But I mean that St. Pierre, there is no meaning of national attack, my dear."

"Is there any particularity in giving the family emblem? Could it be... the meaning of engagement?" Lin Jiu turned his head to the video, watching his son through the magic transmission signal, his eyes were full of admiration that his son stepped on two boats .

"It's not an engagement... Mom. It's just a souvenir."

Cyril explained feebly that he actually didn't know why the whole family (well, half of the family) was grabbing the innocent him even though it was Roland's lifeless stuff that he gave to him in vain? ? ?

"Heh." - Severus and Benny came.

"No matter what, it's all over. I'm happy that Lin Xiao found his destiny partner. But... Roland is a descendant of Xinia, doesn't he also want to find an elf partner?" Cyril quickly talked about other things topic.

"Coincidentally here, in fact, baby Lin Xiao was a little confused at the beginning after becoming a white fox. When he appeared around Roland, it was Roland who discovered him first. This French boy thought he fell in love with a white fox at first. , I was taken aback. Hahaha! It's really cute!"

Cyril's brain-filling picture: Roland looked at the little white fox in front of him with a tangled heart, thinking about why he suddenly had such a good impression of a white fox for no reason.

"puff!"

"Don't worry, Mom, I'll go back to McLean Manor tomorrow and send it back immediately when I find it. I can't delay Lin Xiao's big event. The previous things were all a joke when everyone was young. Hmm."

In this way, Xi Ruier made a very "reliable" decision, and unilaterally ended this gossip about Lin Xiao who turned into his own old sesame seed and rotten millet.

Lin Jiu warned again: "Then you and Severus must pay attention to safety, and don't go out of the school or hospital if there is nothing to do recently."

"understood!"

……

7 a.m., Hogwarts Great Hall.

In the past, there were only a few students at this time, and they would be scattered among the four long tables, reading books and having breakfast leisurely.

But this morning, it was destined to be different.

All the students appeared here spontaneously, their faces were solemn and pale, and the panic in their eyes could not be concealed.On the long table in front of them was a hearty breakfast as usual, but few students had the appetite to taste these well-fried sausages and bacon.

Dumbledore walked towards the teacher's seat as usual, and there was a small commotion below.Everyone was looking forward to the old man who fought against the big devil on the magic screen yesterday, hoping that he could say something.

Dumbledore shook out his napkin as usual, looked around gently, and the entire auditorium fell silent for a moment.

The old wizard with the white beard said slowly: "I know that everyone wants to hear something from me. I am ashamed to say that as the principal and professor, I have not taught for a long time...but today, here. A trivial but very practical lesson in 1 minute, that is --- eating. Yes, yes, you heard it right. No matter who brings what, as long as we are alive, life will To continue, you see, what we need to do now is to eat breakfast. After we have a full breakfast, we will talk about what happened in detail, what should be done at Hogwarts, what should we do."

Cyril glanced admiringly at the headmaster who was sitting two seats away, eating breakfast calmly. This old man's philosophy of life was probably his most precious asset.

The headline of the Daily Prophet at hand was in big black characters: The man who can't even mention his name is back.

————The British Minister of Magic Cornelius Fudge made a brief statement on Thursday night, in which he personally confirmed that the man who cannot even be named has returned and launched a series of operations again fact.

"Although I was shocked, but as you all saw that the big monster - you know who I mean - yes yes, it is him. He is still alive and still seems to be spreading among us series of events."

On the second page of the Daily Prophet, there is a photo of Fudge. He looks like his hair has turned gray overnight, he is tired and embarrassed, "We will enter a state of first-level combat readiness, but at the same time call on everyone-- ——People in the entire magical world must remain vigilant at all times. The Ministry of Magic has urgently published a "Guide to Self-Defense, How to Protect Yourself and Your Family Defense", which will be distributed to every family and individual through the municipal owl. Everyone learn as soon as possible At the same time, together with the principal of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Witchcraft and Wizardry, Professor Dumbledore and Hogwarts Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, Mr. Lucius Malfoy, we will talk about the future of our wizarding world—little wizards Conduct emergency training, increase the teaching practice of Defense Against the Dark Arts, and increase everyone's self-protection ability..."

From the third page to the sixth page are images and press releases of last night's battle. The first one is a video clip of Dumbledore and Voldemort confronting each other next to the magic fountain, with Cyril using a spell on the side.

"Who Keeps Us Safe?——A Tribute to the Wizards Who Selflessly Protected Us" The battle was fierce last night, Albus Percival Wulfric Bryan Dumbledore Mr. Lido led his school's professors and some people with a sense of justice to launch a siege against the mysterious man's raid...

As mentioned before, the brief statement made by the British Minister of Magic last night caused great turmoil and anxiety in the magical society.Interestingly, only a week ago, the British Ministry of Magic assured the magical society: "No matter what rumors are currently circulating, the return of You-Know-Who is pure nonsense, and the escape from Azkaban is just a defection of dementors." , has nothing to do with the personal actions of the mysterious man and the Death Eaters! '.

Astonishingly, the Deputy Minister who made this statement on behalf of the Ministry of Magic, Ms Dolores Umbridge, Director of Advocacy Safety, was at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry when this incident broke out. The work of teaching supervision directly led to the fact that after the incident, Ms. Umbridge, the deputy minister, did not show up until the early morning of the next day, and did not make any explanation for this unexpected incident.

Albus Dumbledore, headmaster of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, member of the International Confederation of Wizards and chief wizard of the Wizengamot, has not yet found time to be interviewed by us.As we all know, in the past few months, he has always insisted that the mysterious man is not dead, and the overall prison break of Azkaban has an extremely close connection with the mysterious man.

At the same time, the former head of the Auror Division, Alastor Moody, is currently leading the Aurors to actively capture the remnants of the Death Eaters... The current head of the Auror Division is suspected of... being removed from his post.The Director of the Auror Division is temporarily taken over by Moody.

Enthusiastic people from society, Mr. Sirius Black, who has been wronged, and Mr. Remus Lupine, a righteous person, joined the search team...

As a professor at Hogwarts, the winner of the Merlin First Class Medal, Potion Master Professor Severus Snape and the Merlin Second Class Medal winner, St. Mungo's Medical Potion Research and Development Department Deputy Director Cyril Mr. McLean—”

"I knew they would write us in." Cyril took a sip of milk tea and pointed at the text on the Daily Prophet with his finger.

Severus glanced at it disinterestedly, snorted through his nose, looked away hastily, and continued drinking his black coffee.

"The rest of the thick books are fugitives caught or killed, and they don't say a word about why that man came to the Ministry of Magic. But—Umbridge is screwed."

Cyril casually flipped the newspaper to the end, twitching the corners of his mouth with a smirk, and a long and eye-catching headline came into view: "What should the Ministry of Magic tell us?"

——Dolores Umbridge, is she a minister who promotes security, or is she a manipulator of false public opinion behind the Fudge regime?

————From the Ministry of Magic to Hogwarts, Rita Skeeter explores the unknown truth about Ms. Deputy Minister for you" "Huh. Eat." Severus spread a piece of buttered toast Putting it on Cyril's dinner plate, he sneered.

One after another, the students couldn't eat but worked hard to eat breakfast. They raised their heads and looked at the old principal who was eating breakfast quietly, like meerkats holding their paws one after another, or looking at the meerkats in the melon field. Watermelon, finally, Principal Dumbledore put down the bone china cup in his hand.

"Look, I feel much warmer when I'm full," said the old Headmaster gently.

"Most of what the papers say is true. The man did come back, and he showed up at the Ministry yesterday to get something, but failed."

Ignoring the panting sound from the audience, the old man continued: "So, as the principal of the school, I need to give you a guarantee here. That is, as long as Hogwarts is here for a day, I will protect the people here for a day. We The school’s security measures will be upgraded again in these two days. Therefore, for the upcoming Christmas, I have discussed with the teachers. If you don’t mind, you can stay here and spend the time together. The teacher and I will protect everyone. There are many people. And safe. Of course, if your family wants you to go back, we have absolutely no problem."

The buzzing voices on the long table of students remembered that everyone was trying their best to digest the news brought by the principal, expressing their opinions in a low voice.

"I'm going to spend Christmas with you this year, buddy." Xiao Longbao patted Harry's shoulder with the corner of his mouth pursed.
