Wild child

Chapter 28

Fanny's prediction is quite accurate. Judging from the two known families involved in the wizarding world, Dumbledore has done a good job in recruiting soldiers and winning people's hearts. Judging from the newspapers, Dumbledore is indeed in bad luck.

Reports say he lost his job as president of the International Federation of Magicians because he was too old to do what he wanted.They had demoted him, he was no longer Chief Wizard of the Wizengamot - the highest court of wizards - and other officials seemed to be discussing taking back his Order of Merlin, [-]st Class.Not to mention the overwhelming spittle offensive from the major media, Fanny felt that Dumbledore might be only a few steps away from Azkaban—she was quite looking forward to the newspaper publishing "the insane slanderer Albus Dumbledore "Prison Break" news, it is estimated that Sirius will have to wait in the back.

Speaking of Sirius, now Fanny is absolutely envious of him.What a wonderful life to be able to wander outside to avoid being chased and killed by all forces, unlike her already moss at home, she has never been so looking forward to the start of school.The newspaper said someone had seen his motorbike flying over Tibet, and whether it was true or not, that was a great idea.

Compared to Fanny's restlessness, Smith was much happier.He has a wide range of hobbies, a colorful life, and letters from beautiful women come in like snowflakes. He carefully preserves each letter after reading it. Fanny glanced at it once, and there are several thick stacks, there must be hundreds of letters.

It was only counterproductive to her mood, and Smith was almost afraid to speak to Fanny because she would make fun of him about his love affairs to the point of embarrassment.Since the holiday, Draco has only sent a short letter. Fanny has already memorized the simple greeting and warning her not to write to him without permission.The two reached an undisclosed consensus, and Fanny knew the complexity of the situation, but she was still extremely annoyed.

In school, they had private meetings at night, Gryffindor and Slytherin, who were still hostile when they met in the corridor during the day, understood each other when no one was paying attention, and there was tension in love. Ni likes this feeling, and even takes the secret as her advantage in love.However, during the holidays, she couldn't see each other, couldn't communicate, and there was an unprecedented backlog of burdens in her heart, which really made her a little suffocated.At the craziest moment, she thought of writing a letter to the Daily Prophet to announce to the world that Draco Malfoy was her boyfriend of Fanny Sanchez.

But she wouldn't do it, she knew Draco was trying to convince his parents to accept the possibility that the Malfoy blood was no longer pure, he was working hard for their future, and she couldn't hold back.So she locked herself in her room and tried to memorize the damned books, not just the bloody aristocratic bibliographies, but the textbooks too.The most effective way to get Slytherin's approval is to prove her strength, and she can no longer let her grades sway on the passing line.As Mrs. Conwell said, this is a matter between two people, and she is not allowed to live her life willfully.

Because of this, Fanny felt the coldness and stubbornness of Christo Sanchez even more. She is indeed a person who is ruthless enough to let her heart down.

Fanny thought of that woman more than ever these days.She couldn't help but think about what CC would say and do in this situation. Fanny didn't have her entity in her memory, but her image became more and more vivid and complete in Fanny's mind.It seems that CC's never-returning forest quest just lasted a little longer, and Fanny was waiting for her return.

Mrs Conwell's 15th birthday present to Fanny was a painting, "CC and Her Daughter".The title of the painting is very popular, but based on Mrs. Conwell's understanding of the mother and daughter, this is certainly not an ordinary painting of family affection.In fact, the main body of the painting is cascading mountains and monstrous waves, torrential rain, lightning and thunder.The two people on the cliff on the lower right are facing the mighty force of nature, and the long hair of the same color like flowing mercury can be seen dancing in the distance.

It's a bit surreal. When Fanny saw it for the first time, she was envious of the girl in the robe in the painting, and she knew it was herself.Fanny hung the painting on the wall opposite her bed, and it was by far her favorite birthday present.

Live happily and wonderfully, or live depressedly and boringly, after all, two months is not too long. On September 9, Fanny set foot on the Hogwarts Express again.As usual, Fanny and the twins are sitting in the same cubicle. The two boys have been very busy in the past year, both inventing and creating small businesses. It sounds like a dream to take "Weasley's Magic and Trick Shop" as their graduation dream. Very attractive idea.

When she heard that Harry had given the Triwizard Tournament bonus of one thousand Galleons to the two of them as start-up funds, Fanny's eyes widened in shock. She knew that she had inherited a large fortune from her parents and she narrowly escaped death twice a year on average. The above-mentioned Harry rarely takes money seriously, but that's an exaggerated generosity.

But thinking about it, Harry must have felt that the money was covered in Cedric's blood, and that it was polite not to throw it in the gutter given his temperament.

In short, there is no shortage of money and creative twins needed to start a business. When researching high-end products such as quick-acting skipping sugar, the twins’ lack of technology is revealed. Together, they only passed 6 OWLs exams, and even they I am also convinced that the number of times they fail the grade can be matched by the number of years they stay in school.

These two people really have a Gryffindor style of hard work. People who have failed to pass the potion since they started learning potions actually act as experimenters to try new products. Fanny feels that they did not vomit their stomachs after the summer vacation. It's a miracle that I didn't come out with a lot of nosebleeds and die without falling asleep.If it were hers, she would at least catch some mice and do some experiments first. Fanny almost agreed with Draco's assessment of the IQ of the Weasley family. The intelligence and prudence of the twins may have been exhausted during the research and development stage.

Considering the safety of her friends, Fanny, who specializes in herbalism and potions, is also pretty good among Gryffindors, and soon became their technical advisor.The studious spirit of the twins catches up with Hermione. During the 6-7 hour drive, Fanny spoke dryly. The two of them jotted down a few feet of parchment, and even clamored for Fanny to become a shareholder.Considering the heart of Mr. and Mrs. Malfoy, Fanny thinks it is better to refuse. If you have any questions, you are welcome to consult.

Due to the strong academic atmosphere in the compartment, Fanny didn't know that Ron and Hermione had been elected prefects until she got off the car to meet up with the students of her year.She didn't count on herself being elected because no one of the girls could compete with Hermione for the position, but Ron was a bit of a puzzle to her.In terms of grades, character, and great achievements, Harry beat Ron in every aspect. At this special time, Ron was elected. It couldn't be because Ron and Hermione were a couple.

Seeing the majestic look of the two of them after wearing the badge of the prefect, well, they are a good match.

Hermione was complaining about Malfoy's arrogance to the new students and vowed to sue him, which made the corners of Fanny's lips twitch. She could almost see the scene in her mind.She wished she could get to the Great Hall sooner, at least they could focus on each other while all eyes were on the Sorting Ceremony.

"I just said, what are those horse-like things?"

"What horse-like thing?"

"It's the horse-like thing that pulls those wagons!"

"what are you talking about?"

"I'm saying--look! Look at that--there, between the shafts! On the wagon! Right in front of you--"

"There's nothing wrong with you, Harry?"

Looking at the direction of Harry's finger, Fanny figured out the source of the problem, and she walked towards the two boys who looked equally puzzled.

"That's thestrals," Fanny said. "Only those who have experienced death can see them. Hagrid keeps a lot of them, and they are used to draw carriages for Hogwarts."

Suddenly—pain—pressing the pain, Fanny could see a series of changes in Harry's expression.

"You won't go crazy, I can see them too." A trance voice cut in.

The owner of the voice was a crazy-looking girl with disheveled blond hair reaching her waist, big silver eyes protruding, and little radishes hanging from her ears—later Fanny learned that the real name of this thing was Airship Lee.

"Luna, you—?" After hearing Fanny's introduction, Harry hesitated.

"I've seen them since the first day I came here. They've been pulling the wagon. Don't worry, you're as clear-headed as I am." Luna said as she got into the musty compartment of the wagon.

"As clear as Mad Lovegood is, mate," whispered Ron, patting Harry on the shoulder.

Harry looked at Fanny. "Fanny, have you seen—?"

Those desperate eyes still appear in Fanny's nightmares to this day, but it's hard to explain.Fanny simply misleadingly misleading, she raised her wrist: "The person who gave me this watch passed away the year before last - the staple food of thestrals is fresh meat with blood, it is best if you have a wound on your hand." Better not touch it."

Ron, who was curiously reaching out to the front of the carriage, withdrew his hand as if electrocuted. Harry paused for a long time for the change of context before saying with difficulty: "I'm sorry."

"Me too, I miss him," Fanny said.

Time is running out and the conversation is over.The carriage on Harry's side was full, and Fanny went to squeeze another one with Parvati and the others. After hearing the suspicion and ridicule all the way, it seemed that Harry must have a hard time this year.

After seeing the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher, Fanny strengthened her judgment.Umbridge spoke a good official accent, and his speech had a good hypnotic effect on the students who had just eaten. The actual effective content ratio was roughly the same as the ratio of the number of people who actually listened in the auditorium.

Not only that, but the new teacher's appearance is also anti-human, and even Fanny is at a loss for words. She plans to write in a letter to Mrs. Conwell, "Anyway, I can't go wrong in the direction of a pink toad".Later, she was troubled by the title "Mrs. Umbridge" for a long time: how hard would it be to marry such a...?

Imagine Umbridge kissing some faceless man with a drunken face, and Fanny thinks she ate too much for dinner.

Cough, in order to divert attention, Fanny started discussing what she had just heard with Hermione.Both agreed that the arrival of the Ministry of Magic official was a sign of the Ministry of Magic's intervention in Hogwarts. However, compared to Hermione who could quote the original sentence line by line, Fanny, who only heard the general meaning, was in the discussion. Obviously much more passive.

Of course, she is still better than those two boys who are staring and wandering in the sky.

"Didn't you say you listened with gusto?" Ron asked in a low voice, turning his dull face to the two girls. "That's probably the most boring speech I've ever heard, and I grew up around Percy. of it."

"Have you ever met a priest who pestered you from the age of 7 to the age of 10 and tried to convince you to believe in the Lord?" Fanny replied in a low voice.

There was a sound of clashing tables, chairs and benches around the room during the speech. It was obvious that Dumbledore had announced the dismissal of the teachers and students of the school, because everyone stood up and prepared to leave the auditorium.Hermione, who was about to comment on Fanny's childhood, jumped up, looking very panicked.

"Ron, we're supposed to show the way to the first-years!"

"Oh, yes," said Ron, evidently having forgotten all about it, "hey - hey, you all! Little ones!"

"Ron!"

"Hey, that's right, they are so small..."

"I know, but you can't call them little ones! - first years!" Hermione called across the table with authority, "this way, please!"

A group of freshmen walked shyly through the aisle between the Gryffindor and Hufflepuff tables, trying to stay back as much as possible, not daring to stand out.They did look small, and Harry grinned at them.

A boy with blond hair, who seemed petrified, nudged another boy and whispered something into his ear.The boy also looked very frightened, and secretly looked at Harry with terrified eyes. Fanny saw that Harry seemed to have been slapped, and the smile on his face disappeared without a trace.

"I trust you." She patted Harry on the shoulder.

"Well...thank you." Harry smiled gratefully at Fanny.

Taking a detour to whisper to someone, Fanny returned to the dorm a few minutes late, and heard gunpowder smoke as soon as she entered the door.

"Believe it or not is your business, shut your fat mouth and stop gossiping about Harry!"

Wow, stern voice and rude words, is this Hermione?

Lavender, who was pointed at, was obviously as frightened as Fanny. By the time she realized that she was about to reply, Hermione had already closed the curtains, and the sound of falling on the bed seemed to collapse the bed.

"I just asked a simple question!" Lavender's expression now is very similar to that of Ron when Hermione choked, and she turned to ask for help from the sidelines, "You all saw the "Daily Prophet" Let’s say it in Wizard Weekly, it’s the most authoritative! We don’t know what happened that day, we only saw Harry dragging a dead man to appear, and then Dumbledore told us about the man who couldn’t even mention his name The man is back! Now the new prefect does not allow us to doubt it!"

"Actually, I completely trust Harry and Dumbledore." Meeting Lavender's gaze, Fanny spread her hands, "So don't look at me. Digory's death clearly shows that there is a problem with 'authority', what is it? 'Unfortunate Accident'? Remember the endless coverage when Harry was the Warriors? I nearly threw up reading it. And when he won? A hand-sized piece in the corner that didn't even mention the Warriors' death. Don't you think they're trying to steer public opinion to cover up something? By the way, that Skeeter who was digging up Harry's ass disappeared from the press completely after that."

"Even if what you said is suspicious, it doesn't mean that Dumbledore is right!" Amelia interjected rarely, "He didn't say anything except the result that the mysterious man killed Digory."

"Anyway, we'll see, we can reserve our opinions." Fanny fell on the bed, "Dumbledore has his own plan...he is Dumbledore, and he can have more than a dozen litters with his own plan."

That would be the end of the debate.There was a lingering sound the next day. Hermione and Fanny had a private chat, expressing their happiness that Fanny supported Harry, and telling Fanny that she was actually responsible for Skeeter's disappearance.

Skeeter wrote a story slandering Hermione's use of a love potion to seduce Harry and Krum, which made her life a mess for a long time.So after discovering that Skeeter was an illegal Animagus who could turn into a beetle to scout for news, Hermione put her in a bottle for a week and ordered her not to write any reports for a year, Otherwise she'd have to write about life in Azkaban from the inside.

After so many years that no one had found out about Skeeter's little secret, there was nothing Hermione couldn't do without putting her wits together.Fanny wiped her cold sweat, and secretly warned herself not to mess with Hermione.

But this incident also fully demonstrated Hermione's nature as a good person, grasping the biggest trick of an authoritative reporter, wanting revenge and gaining some benefits is a matter of minutes.It was Skeeter's bad luck to run into Hermione's hands, but it was also really cheap for her.

How else can it be said that bad people are easy to gain power, and the cost of fighting against good people is low...

Looking at the new schedule, Fanny's mood of sighing was gone.

History of magic, two potions classes, arithmetic and divination classes, two defense against the dark arts classes, the legendary OWLs year is probably intended to give fifth graders some insight from the first day of each week, such as the limit of endurance .

Especially those like Fanny who are just planning to attend classes.

After trying not to doze off for half an hour, Hermione, who was able to take notes while listening to Binns's lecture, had risen to a near-divine existence in Fanny's heart; Snape was next to Fanny who was concentrating on making potions in Potions class Standing for a long time, Fanny really wanted to give him an inner monologue, "Impossible, you must have a convulsion"; Professor Victor couldn't help it after half a class watching Fanny, who was busy with calculations, " Sanchez, the required formula is in the next chapter".

Harry had given her, and all the fifth-year Gryffindors, a good wake-up call in Defense Against the Dark Arts.

"It's not nonsense! I saw him, I wrestled with him!"

Hermione began to question Umbridge and the stupid textbook, and the conflict quickly escalated when the latter insisted that there was no threat waiting for the students outside the school.In front of more than 30 classmates, Harry shouted out the truth about Voldemort's resurrection and Cedric's death, which scared Umbridge away immediately.

Harry kicked the chair aside, took Umbridge's note to McGonagall and went out the door without looking back.Hermione watched Harry's back with a mixture of annoyance, worry and complaint, but Fanny could see the meaning of "Look at my friend!"

She also watched Harry leave, then lowered her head and continued to endure the disgustingly boring book.

Endure this silent self.

Umbridge is an official of the Ministry of Magic, that is, the official representative at Hogwarts. Offending her will never leave any glorious records in his files.She has to be flawless in every professor's evaluation, at least for the next few years.Fanny was no longer at a point where she could risk getting into Azkaban and being expelled from school, and she had to get used to it.
