HP's return to innocence

To Draco, the current curriculum was like Muggle college students going back to primary school to learn addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

Draco's original plan was to act like he had been -- good, but not the best.

Astronomy, herbal medicine, and history of magic are no problem. These professors are not keen on asking questions. Even if they add points, they are mostly for homework or practical operations.

But, when they had their first Transfiguration class, the first problem came.In the original transfiguration class, the first to meet Professor McGonagall's requirements, Hermione Granger was always praised and scored, followed by the little nobles of pure blood, such as Draco himself.But now, Granger went to Ravenclaw...

As a result, no one in this Transfiguration class had their matches turned into needles.

After the Transfiguration class, there was the Charms class. Naturally, this class had the same problems as the Transfiguration class.

After the past 20 years of sharpening, Drake has almost been polished clean. Otherwise, if he is an ordinary 40-year-old wizard, he will definitely be affected by the fact that he is clearly a master of black magic and his battle spell is comparable to that of an Auror. Not pretending to be clumsy waving wands over and over again, chanting ridiculously wrong spells over and over again.

Drake even talked about pronunciation problems with Blaise and Pansy in a serious manner after class, and no one found out that he was faking it.Therefore, as long as you are patient enough and not impetuous, this problem is easy to solve.

The second problem is Defense Against the Dark Arts, the strong smell of garlic, and the Dark Lord hidden under the smell of garlic... Whenever Quirrell turned to write on the blackboard, Drake couldn't help but become nervous, even Now the empty left arm will also be hot and painful.

Before that, he originally thought that he was able to deal with the Dark Lord, but now it seems that the two short years of being marked have had a much greater impact on him than he imagined.But this is also a good thing, at least let him discover this before he really confronted the Dark Lord, otherwise...

So Draco tried to look directly at Quirrell, especially the back of his head, imagining that what he saw was not the purple hood, but the monster behind the hood, and forced himself to overcome the fear.And because he was too focused, Draco even ignored the smell of garlic—it has to be said, this was a surprise.

The third problem, of course, is the problem of potions class and potions professor, which is also the biggest problem.

Potions professor, dean of Slytherin, Severus Snape, he is a good friend of his father; he was in school for seven years, he was obviously partial to Draco in many places; after the return of the Dark Lord , especially after his father was accidentally arrested in the Department of Mysteries, he also took care of Drake in many ways.

If we simply consider these aspects, then Severus Snape should be the only person Draco can trust besides his family, but...

If Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy were in danger at the same time, and the Snake King only had time to save one, then he would definitely save Potter without hesitation.

If his father had pointed his wand at Harry Potter, the King Snake would probably have shot the Death Curse at his friend's back without hesitation.

He is a double-faced agent. While bowing to the Dark Lord, he revealed the secrets of the Death Eaters to the leader of the White Wizard. However, it was a dead woman who really gave him all his loyalty.For himself and Harry Potter, one is superficial love, and the other is deep-seated protection. It is clear at a glance which is better.

Unfortunately, his father, who almost always talks to his friends, probably doesn't know this.When Drake looked at his potions professor, there would always be such a scene—his father was talking to Dean Snape about the recent situation of the family in a foolish way, and when he turned around, his dean would talk about the Malfoy family. The latest developments of Dumbledore were handed over to Dumbledore, and then... then it is conceivable.

Daily gossip can best reveal the real situation of a person or a family, and it may be a seemingly ordinary truth that will kill his father at a critical moment.

Slytherin is selfish, except for the most important, everything else including his own life can be sacrificed.This is the case for everyone, so Drake will not resent his double agent chief, after all, it is their own choice, but if their choices conflict...

But in fact, conflicts occurred in the first class. While Snape kept picking on the savior, he kept praising him with various reasons and giving Slytherin extra points.

Even without turning his head, Draco could feel the resentful eyes of those Gryffindors looking at him.As a result, Draco even hesitated whether to throw the porcupine quill into the cauldron while it was still burning. Although it would destroy the potion, at least it would prevent him from being established as the biggest object of the savior's struggle.

But unfortunately, probably in order to find a reason to praise him, the Potions Professor has been standing next to his crucible, and when he makes an action, he is praised, and then it is a bonus point, and then the next action.And as long as he was suspected of doing something wrong, the Potions Professor would snort in a low voice—how could he do anything about it?

As a result, before Drake could do anything, Neville did, and the acidic potion instantly covered the ground, and everyone jumped onto the chairs.

Snape cleared the potion off the ground with a flick of his wand, asked Seamus, who was in Neville's team, to send Neville to the hospital wing, and then snarled at Harry and Ron, deducting their points because The two of them were next to Neville because Harry hadn't told Neville that he couldn't have porcupine quills...

Draco still vaguely remembered this scene, and he felt very happy at that time, because Potter, who refused his friendship, was unlucky with Weasley.But for now, he just keeps his head down, carefully bottles the scabies potion when it turns the correct color, and waits for get out of class to end.

When he left the classroom, Ron Weasley looked at him, just like every Weasley looked at every Malfoy.And Harry Potter, with accusing green eyes looking at a traitor.

As expected, Merlin was already dead!

Drake was writing his homework in the library, and Blaise, across from him, suddenly tapped his fingers on his reference book with a strange expression: "Don't you feel it, Mr. Draco Malfoy~" Blaise's The tone was very drawn out, certainly not the soothing aria of the Malfoy family, but a feeling of gnashing of teeth.

"What?" Draco went to look at his parchment, and reread both sides of the part that had been written. The grammar, the words were correct, the examples were correct, and the handwriting was neat and unstained.

"Not your homework." Blaise sighed. "Look at your rear left."

"?" Drake turned his head, and there were several Hufflepuff girls sitting there. Drake who suddenly turned his head seemed to startle them. The girls were stunned for a moment, and then at lightning speed, they made a huge noise. After the sound, they slapped their faces on the table.

Draco grinned a little, because that must have hurt.

"Now look to the rear right," Blaise continued.

So Drake turned his head again, and there were a few Gryffindor girls sitting there. They were quite calm, and even when Drake looked at them, the girls raised their heads, but it was only limited to Drake looking at them. Before they smiled—when the piercing screams sounded, Mrs. Pince arrived in an instant and drove the girls out of the library with a feather duster.

"And then? Let's go to Ravenclaw on the front left?" Drake looked at Blaise helplessly.

"Draco, how can you smile at those Gryffindors? There are even half-bloods and mudbloods in there!" Before Blaise spoke, Pansy came closer.

"Regardless of their bloodlines, they are all ladies, and as a noble wizard, demeanor is a must." Then she smiled at Pan Xi, and the little girl blushed immediately. She said nothing more and lowered her head. do homework.

"Draco, my friend, you have become enlightened. It really makes me sad and happy. The sad thing is that my biggest opponent appeared. The happy thing is that my little Draco finally understands the fun of men."

"... Blaise, did the Sorting Hat really not put you in the wrong place?" Draco found out that Blaise might be more suitable to go to Gryffindor.

"Actually, I've been trying to convince that hat to send me to Ravenclaw." As we all know, Ravenclaw is notoriously more female than male, "Well, no kidding Draco. It makes me wonder not Those girls."

Draco made a please go ahead gesture.

"I'm weird about you."

"I?"

"Go to class honestly every day, do your homework in the library after class, and smile at the girls who come to see you. You will be like this until the Christmas break, the end of the semester, and even the next semester. Change?"

"..." Draco looked at the tip of his pen and remained silent.

"Do you know what Nott has been doing these two days?"

"Bring a few little guys to trouble Gryffindor." Only a few days before the start of school, Nott followed them to the library to do homework honestly, but after he probably figured out Hogwarts After seeing the terrain of Ci, he pulled a few people to act by himself.

Of course Drake knew why Nott was rushing, he wanted to establish his position in Slytherin.The family background of the Nott family is only upper middle class, and he could only choose to kneel with a Malfoy.But now Draco obviously just wanted to be a good student, so the little nobles under Malfoy began to use their brains.

In terms of internal fighting, there are senior prefects and the most authoritative Slytherin headmaster in the past hundred years. In addition, family interests may be involved. Whoever was smart enough to provoke the foreign war first - Gryffindor is of course the best enemy.

"So, you think I should take both of you, Crabbe and Goyle, to trouble Gryffindor?"

"No, I think it's time for you to exercise your power and stop letting them bother you."

"Your cousin?" Anthony Zabini, the current fifth-year Slytherin prefect, was one of Blaise's many cousins.

"Yes." The chaos in the first grade has made the other grades look down on it. As seniors, they can beat their juniors, but it is the first grade's internal problem to restore order to them.

Draco looked at the tip of his pen, the senior had already spoken, and this matter was a bit troublesome: "Okay, I'll make everyone come back to their senses..."

The author has something to say:

Regarding the question of whether Draco will help other people besides saving the Malfoy family, this will be discussed later.But he is not suitable for making big moves. After all, even if the relationship between children is good, the world of adults is much more complicated, especially when it comes to power, wealth and the survival of one's own family.

Even in the era when Drake came back, some people were his staunch allies, but when he came back to the past, because of the different historical trajectory, the general environment has also changed, and those who used to be allies may become enemies instead. And former enemies may well become allies.

After all, from the moment Drake came back, the history he knew was no longer the history that was bound to happen.
