if i am not me

The end of the Christmas holiday means that the students who left school will finally return to school one after another.But perhaps because of the Triwizard Tournament, only a few people chose to leave Hogwarts at Christmas, so the noise on the campus did not increase as abruptly as in previous years.

On the campus, you can see junior students pestering the senior students staying at school to ask about all kinds of interesting things that happened during Christmas. Seeing their excited expressions, Leo Porter felt that he was really stupid.Why did he choose to visit that inexplicable country with his father?That was a complete mistake—my dad was so busy all day long that he hardly saw anyone, and he would always be stalked by some inexplicable girls, if he hadn't always remembered the old lady and Sirius To be gentle and gentlemanly, he would have given them Rictusempra (the tickle spell) on the spot.

Thinking wildly in his mind, Leo suddenly noticed a small commotion in the crowd around him. He raised his eyes curiously to look at the sight of the crowd, and found that it was the two influential figures who were at the center of the scandal recently.

But at the other end of the corridor, Harry and Draco, who caused everyone to look back frequently, looked calm and calm, with a relaxed attitude, as if the recent gossip about them didn't exist.

But at this very moment, Leo, who saw the two of them, did not rush forward as usual, but stopped in a daze, with a trace of disappointment on his face.

Since he was a child, the education he received made him accept the love and marriage between wizards of the same sex as a matter of course, so he will not have any prejudice or discrimination against them because of this. After all, this is also very common in the magic world. matter.

However, when this happened to his good friend...no, specifically, it should have happened between Harry and Drake, for some reason, he couldn't accept it.He didn't understand why he couldn't accept it. Leo only knew that something precious was owned by others, which made him feel an inexplicable anger and... jealousy.

But Leo is not a fool without a brain, he knows that his emotions come from completely inexplicable, even nonsensical.What right did he have to be angry and jealous?Although he really regarded Harry as his elder brother, after all, Harry had his own home, his own life, his own life...

And all he can do is to send his blessing after seeing that he has a good home, that's all.

Thinking of this, Leo put away the disappointment in his heart and the emotions on his face, smiled relievedly, picked up his steps again and walked straight to the focus marked by the crowd.

"Harry, Drake." Shouting to stop the two, Leo hurriedly ran to the two who stopped because of him, smiling as always.Seeing the boy who was running towards them, Draco frowned slightly, and raised a slight arc at the corner of his mouth, "Hi, Leo."

Compared with Draco's slightly reserved and indifferent aristocratic greeting, Harry seemed much more enthusiastic, without concealing the joy in his expression, he gave Leo a gentle hug, and asked. "How's the weather in Norway, are you having fun?"

Hearing this, Leo, who had a bright smile on his face, frowned, and his cheeks, which became round after the holiday, trembled slightly with the corners of his mouth, "It's terrible, it's as annoying as their long-nosed beetle. "

"Oh?" Apparently the answer was a bit unexpected, both Harry and Draco were quite surprised. "I thought you liked beetles."

"It was originally, but it won't happen in the future." Leo said in a very firm tone with a slightly willful twitch of the corner of his mouth, and also nodded fiercely.

Harry and Draco looked at each other calmly when they saw this, and did not ask any more questions in a tacit understanding.And Leo himself didn't want to mention that boring trip, so after adjusting his facial expressions and emotions, he showed an expression of interest, and began to change the subject with a half-smile: "Don't talk about that, it's the two of you ...There was no wind at all before."

Hearing this, Harry and Draco smiled enigmatically and calmly, but they remained silent.

It's just that Leo's eyes certainly won't miss their hands quietly intertwined after his question. He stared at their hands for a while, and then looked at the two smiling sweetly in front of him. He understood the answer they gave him. , At the same time, I also know that it is impossible for me to get the words out of the mouth of the person concerned.

However, this was expected. After all, if those two people could really tell everything so easily, then they would not be Harry Johnson and Draco Malfoy of Slytherin.

He gave them a look of "understanding" kindly, Leo made a face, and after a few words of greeting, he turned and left.First of all, because he could see that the two of them obviously had their own things to do, so he didn't bother them.Secondly, it is because he has to find the source of information. You must know that if you can't get an answer from the protagonist, it doesn't mean that you don't have an answer. The key is whether you can find the right person.

In Leo's mind, the right person now was Hermione.

It’s just that he doesn’t know if he can find her in the library now. After all, another recent scandal is about her—after the Christmas ball in the Triwizard Tournament, the rumor that she is Krum’s new girlfriend has been known to the whole school, and even Almost all Krum fans know the existence of such a girl.So Leo really didn't know if she still had the energy and time to answer her own questions at this time.In addition, Sirius had also taught him that if he hindered others from falling in love, he would be hit on the head by a giant monster, so at this moment, he was making a difficult choice whether to be smashed to death by a giant monster, or let himself be suffocated to death by curiosity. Incomparably tangled.

Or you can try to ask other people, Leo thought twice and began to try other plans.

Ron and Neville seemed like good choices.It's just that Leo immediately remembered the photo of Hermione and Ron dancing in Rita Ski's Christmas report, and suddenly he was a little uncertain.Thinking about Neville's situation, it seems that he will also be killed by a giant monster...

Many students like Leo began their new semester amid one scandal after another, and as time went on, the Warriors also began to get busy with the second project.

Draco didn't know if Krum and Fleur had figured it out, but at least his ears were callused from the mermaid song.So after the old god was there and discussed various possibilities with Harry, he took the time to learn new spells—you know, in order to prepare for the Triwizard Tournament, he learned the spells in the black book later than Harry Several times, this made him very unbearable.

However, in this busy and leisurely atmosphere, Valentine's Day, the most popular and expected festival for young people in a year, is gradually approaching.

The girls became more and more beautiful and sweet, and Hogwarts began to be filled with the familiar rose scent of previous years, but this year there is an additional flavor, which is a new Valentine's Day gift that has become popular recently-chocolate .

Compared with the characteristic tie that was popular last year, chocolate seems to be more able to reflect the ingenuity of girls.So when the first girl showed off her achievements, the girls who were unwilling to lag behind took out their unique skills and researched various special chocolates, hoping to capture the heart of the boy they like.

To this, many boys gave enough responses.Although they don't necessarily like to eat those sweet and greasy things, after all, those things are a big matter of face, so all of them are gearing up to show themselves well during this time.

Hermione has changed a lot now, at least as Valentine's Day is approaching, she unexpectedly started to discuss with Ginny about gifts that she never cared about before.

Due to the popularity of giving chocolates this year, Hermione, who has the courage to break through and innovate and has a deep research spirit, began to explore with Ginny how to make the chocolate contain a sufficient amount of happy agents and maintain long-term medicinal properties, without causing users to be angry because of excessive consumption. The very characteristic question of madness.It would undoubtedly be difficult, but with Hermione around, Ginny was confident it would be all right.

However, even the most beautiful sun can occasionally be covered by dark clouds.

Just two days before Valentine's Day, when the third-year Hufflepuff students walked out of the Potions classroom with looks on their faces, Gryffindor, who was about to start class immediately, knew what was going on today from their weird expressions It's not good - as long as anyone who has taken Snape's Potions class knows that the students will show such a look, it can only show that Snape is in a bad mood, very bad.

While get out of class was still over, George grabbed a little boy who was walking towards the outside of the classroom with a mournful face, and hurriedly asked, "How's the situation?"

The boy who was held back choked up twice, obviously being made things difficult by Snape in class, he looked up at the red-haired boy who was holding him back, and he said rather desolately when he didn't intend to speak, "It's bad..." Then he ran away without looking back.

Frowning, George looked at Fred's gaze, and there was also a hint of interest on his face.From their point of view, it must be very interesting to make Snape so angry.

That day, after some red sand grains were missing from Gryffindor's hourglass, the news that the potion material storage room was stolen spread throughout Hogwarts.After all, even if the professors wanted to hide it, the sudden theory class and the fact that there were no potion materials for the students to experiment could make the students who were not stupid at all guess the general idea.Coupled with the addition of two eccentric twins, the development of the situation can no longer be contained.

In the next few days, Snape's anger continued, but even though he protested solemnly to Dumbledore and Filch ordered a thorough investigation, he still failed to find the stolen precious materials.Therefore, everyone learned that they had to take half a month of potion theory class, and they could not continue their practice until the new potion ingredients arrived half a month later.

As the saying goes, everything has two sides. While Snape was furious, a large part of the students were also extremely grateful—for the theory class, they could completely stay away from the explosive cauldron. What a wonderful thing.

The students at Hogwarts never lacked things to talk about, so on this rare sunny day in February, Harry and the others sat around on the grass by the lake, enjoying the warm sunshine and the smell of hay, and began to talk about these days Come to the potion theft incident that caused a lot of noise in the school.

Facing the big fish in the lake that also came up to bask in the sun, Ron, who was lying on the grass, happily said his guess, "I must have been done by a girl."

Glancing at Ron, who looked extremely confident, Draco didn't hide the curiosity in his eyes, and said lightly, "The reason."

"Hmph!" After making a very cool gesture, Ron raised the corner of his mouth and began to explain to his friends, "Just look at how many potions Hermione and Ginny wasted to study that strange chocolate. There must be someone who can only do it nearby because the potion is not enough." After speaking, he made a gesture of following things.

After listening to Ron's explanation, Neville felt that it made sense, so he nodded accordingly.However, he immediately realized that he seemed to have made a mistake, because Hermione's and Ginny's sharp eyes, which were focused on Ron before, had shifted from the silent Ron to himself following his actions just now.

Ron obviously understood that he had gotten carried away just now and said something he shouldn't have said in front of some people.So after seeing the two girls turn their gazes to Neville, he secretly wiped off his sweat, and thanked Neville, a good brother, for sharing the anger of the two ladies for him.

Seeing Ron and Neville's funny expressions, Harry, who had been silent all this time, finally laughed out loud.Watching their interaction always makes him in a good mood for no reason, and this is exactly what he lacks the most these days.

Although he can only remember a few generalities, Harry did not forget that the former Barty Crouch Jr. stole Snape's potion ingredients and prepared a large amount of Polyjuice Potion, thus lurking in the In Hogwarts.So when news broke that the potion had been stolen, he used the Marauder's Map to search for the name.

However, apart from the fact that Beauxbaton and Durmstrang's people could not be found because the space of the carriage and the ship itself did not belong to the Hogwarts area, he and Drake searched the entire school on the map. Hundreds of people's names, but in the end I couldn't see that name.

This realization made Harry panic, but also deeply puzzled.If it wasn't Barty Crouch Jr. who stole the potion ingredients, who would it be?

Is it just a coincidence that the same thing happened at the same time?
