[HP] Magic didn't give up on you

Although the academic pressure in the fifth grade has suddenly increased, Eli is not as focused on studying as he was in previous years; he has a fixed time to talk to his girlfriend every day, and sometimes they will talk about each other in school. Sometimes they will discuss a topic that they or the other party is currently interested in, and sometimes they will simply listen to the other party's voice.

The call time can be long or short. Sometimes when encountering a problem worth discussing, after the phone call, you have to put it into words carefully, write a letter to continue the discussion, and sometimes you may just care about the weather on the other side and remind each other. take care.The topic of chat is not always very meaningful, but in fact, companionship is already the meaning itself.

Even though the distance is far away, they are infiltrating into each other's life day by day; he understands Penny's courses, homework, teachers, and classmates, listens to her thoughts on choosing topics for each paper, and gives advice; Penny understands His reading list, review progress, spell expo, and research progress.She will watch with him the classic mechanical creations used in Muggle studies classes, and will also listen carefully to his conjuration study and thinking. Many of his classmates are not even as thorough as Petunia in the principles of conjuring spells. She will stand Think about the problem from a more original perspective, rather than just looking at the phenomenon itself.

She was about to become a spell theorist. While Eli was amazed by it, he felt more and more how many possibilities a person could show. When he first met Petunia, Petunia was still there. People who think magic are monsters; after they became friends, Petunia became able to accept herself who was not chosen by magic, and her attitude towards wizards was normal and healthy; and now, after she fell in love with a wizard, She has begun to understand magic more deeply and comprehensively, and she has begun to show the embryonic form of a researcher. Perhaps in this regard, both Eli and Mr. Smith have played a role, and Eli feels that this makes her more dazzling.

Perhaps this is the case with falling in love. When you are passionately in love, you will think that the other person is the best in the world.Eli refrained from talking about this emotion with others, but he also had a corresponding change in the establishment of the new relationship: he seemed to have grown some new parts because of this relationship, some of which were softer when looking at the world The sense of touch...it made him feel strange.

He began to subconsciously pay attention to those classmates who were born in Muggle families. Before, he saw everyone as an equal, and felt that everyone was the same - they were all wizards, they went to the same school, and there was no difference between them.But now, his perspective has become more objective and meticulous: he can more and more clearly see what students from non-pure-blood wizard families are going through... even in schools like ivory towers.

As Voldemort became more and more rampant outside, the school was quietly changing year by year.When he entered school, there were only a few Slytherin students in the school who would show their superior expressions, and behaved fairly restrained, but formed a secret small group in Slytherin.At that time, their attitude towards half-blood wizards was not bad, and they seemed to be particularly targeting those wizards from Muggle families, thinking that they "dirty backgrounds are not worthy of learning noble magic".

And now, five years have passed, this Slytherin society has changed from secretive to aboveboard. Almost all students in the school have heard the name of this society; Spells more dangerous magic, using it on classmates who are not from pure-blood wizarding families, calling it "little pranks", due to their large number, students in the school can't distinguish pranks very well The difference between bullying and bullying classmates is that if there are too many people, it is reasonable to assume that it exists. This kind of behavior has become popular in grades, avoiding the sight of teachers and elders, and quietly judging their innocent classmates.

Gryffindors always have a disgusted expression when they talk about this club, while most of the other colleges keep it secret, don't talk about it, and don't pay attention to it, as if if they ignore it like this, nothing will happen.Attacks between jokes and hurts are always happening quietly in the unknown corners of the school, and most of the students have no sense of crisis at all.

But at the same time, another statistic is mercilessly piercing the illusion of safety in the school: Hogwarts's enrollment of new students is decreasing year by year.The wizards who are more pessimistic about the situation no longer want their children to come to Hogwarts. They would rather educate their children at home-it’s hard to say whether they are afraid that their children will suddenly lose their parents one day, or they are afraid of Hogwarts. Watts could not protect the safety of his own children. In short, the turbulent situation made them nervous and suspicious of all external people and things.

Such a thing is unreasonable if you think about it carefully. If even Hogwarts with Dumbledore is not safe enough, then your own home may not be trustworthy. Not every wizard has a good candidate for the Fidelity Curse.But in the middle of the first half of the semester this year, one of Eli's own roommates suddenly disappeared, and he never showed up at school again, just dropped out without a word, everything happened so suddenly, people were completely caught off guard.

He was a pure-blood Gryffindor, and his parents had an unfortunate accident this holiday - Eli only found out after writing to him, and none of the papers reported it, they were too busy Discussing whether the newly appointed Minister of Magic's move to add dementors to Azkaban is justified, as if this is more important than wizards who quietly lose their lives.

This both made Eli feel heavy and made him feel sympathetic.As a wizard from a half-blood family, he should have gotten some "special treatment" at school, and those Slytherins stared at every wizard who was not pureblood, using black magic on them that they called pranks.But maybe it was because of his blood relationship with the Lestrange family, maybe because he had a good relationship with "noble Death Eaters" like Regulus, or because he had faced Voldemort directly, in short, for the time being No one came to disturb him, and his school life seemed to be as peaceful as ever.

This should have been what he had always hoped for, a life where neither side had any connection, remained neutral, and lived a stable life... But Eli soon realized that the question Lupine asked, although sharp, was quite practical— What do you do when you're actually in that situation, watching your friend shoot another friend?

It doesn't even need to be friends.Eli came back from the owl hut after sending things to Petunia. He passed the grass outside Hogwarts Castle. A group of people surrounded the two of them under the tree by the lake. Eli recognized that it was a Laven Crowe's sixth-year girl and a seventh-year Gryffindor boy.

"Can I trouble you to go away?" Clover Carroll, a seventh grader, said in a bad tone, his wand already in his hand, "I'm with my girlfriend, and I still need your permission ? Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

"Look at your options, Carol." A seventh-year Slytherin said contemptuously, glancing at his nervous girlfriend next to Cliver, who also had her wand in her hand, "A mud Seed? We all thought you were stupid enough."

"What's none of your business?" Cliff sneered, and said unequivocally, "Joy has better grades than you, and his mind is much clearer than yours. I don't understand why it's your turn to object to this matter, unless You guys are also interested in her——then I would say that the pursuit of people must be a fair competition, or go to the back and queue, and stop doing such unscrupulous things that block people up."

The faces of the Slytherins contorted.

"I like a Mudblood?" said the leader in disbelief, and he sneered and raised his wand.

"You're going to pay for your words, you idiot—"

Cliver was faster than him, and while he was still talking nonsense, Cliver's spell had shot out of the wand.

"Fuchsia!" he snapped, and his girlfriend, Joy Keppel, quickly chanted all protection, and together with the defense bracelet on her wrist, the Slytherins were defeated by numbers. Curses are blocked outside.

But this is only a temporary measure, there are many Slytherins after all.The one who was hung up blushed, not sure if it was because of lack of oxygen or shame.Someone helped to read the golden clock fell to the ground, and when his feet hit the ground again, he looked like he was going crazy.

"Very well, Carol, very well," he said softly, raising his wand, "I didn't intend to use this trick on you, after all, you are a pure fool, after all. Blood...then it's all right for you, come and try this—Shenfeng Wuying!"

Eli's pupils shrank suddenly. At this moment, he had no time to do anything more, so he just drew out his wand and ran over quickly.

A long, deep wound appeared on Clover Carroll's shoulder, and blood gushed out continuously.His body seemed to have been attacked by a rain of blades, and there were fine and dense knife-like wounds on his body.His clothes were in tatters and he looked very miserable.

Clover seemed stunned by his injury, he looked down at himself in a daze, and then looked up at the Slytherins in front of him.His girlfriend, Joy, who had just been protected by him, now covered her mouth in horror, wanted to help but didn't know what to do, flustered and at a loss.

"Speedy healing." Eli cursed at him hurriedly, brushing his wand over his shoulder.He briefly helped to stop the bleeding, and looked at Clover's girlfriend.

"Take him to the school infirmary." He said hurriedly, and Joey nodded sharply.

The Slytherins paused when they saw him appear.Their eyes flicked appraisingly across his face, weighing whether to strike him.

Eli ignored them, his eyes narrowing slowly.

God has no shadow.

He knew who the inventor of the spell was.

Snape looked dazed and surprised when he held him against the wall of an empty classroom by his collar.

"What are you doing!" He frowned, grabbed his collar, and pulled it back hard.

Eli was unmoved, and stared at him seriously, as if he had just met this person for the first time today.

"You taught Shenfeng Wuying to your friends." He said softly, "I am not a person with a particularly high sense of morality. If you use it on James or Sirius, I may not agree, but I also No meddling, meddling between my two friends - but you taught them to hurt innocents, Severus? Do you know what you're doing?"

Snape looked at him silently for a while, then lowered his gaze slightly in a calm manner.

"It's a spell with a counter-spell, Eli." He said softly, looking at him indifferently. "If you really want to be able to stay out of it, then I suggest you really be able to see everything and turn a blind eye to everything. Never mind."
