Horace Slughorn had not been in contact with John for some time.
Ever since John asked that question.
He came to the room and saw no Basil, and Tom was not there either.
"Going to the Owlery?"
John thought for a moment and knew where to go.
All the owls in the school live in the Owlery, except Basil.
Because Basil likes to fight, several owls were beaten until their fur almost fell out.
It can be called the king of the Owlery.
Together with the dog-legged Tom, an eagle and a dog make the owl frightened.
John heads to the Owlery, thinking that Basil may have gone to fight another owl.
Except for Hedwig, the other owls are quite afraid of it.
On the way, John met Mrs. Norris.
It circled affectionately around John's feet, and John smiled: "Has Filch's search scope expanded to the Owlery?"
After feeding Mrs. Norris some dried fish, John walked toward the owl loft.
The Owlery is in the west tower, which also houses the office of Professor Flitwick, the Charms professor.
Many students like to come here, and Professor Flitwick is willing to let students eat a few dancing cookies in his office.
Arriving at the shack, John saw a group of owls huddled in a corner, and Basil was standing on the perch of an unknown owl.
Tom barked arrogantly. Except for Basil, he refused to accept any of the other flying dogs.
Opposite Basil, Hedwig was staring at it.
Two white snowy owls glared at each other.
Suddenly, Hedwig took the lead, spreading her huge white wings and making an owl fly down from the sky.
Basil counterattacked with a tornado that destroyed the parking lot.
Snow-white feathers were flying everywhere, and Tom was cheering below.
John's breath was stagnant, and he stopped the two guys fighting, "Stop."
The snowy owls slapping each other violently stopped, and Basil flew to John's shoulder and landed on it, shouting in Hedwig's direction.
Not to be outdone, Hedwig just cursed.
From the way the other owls cowered, it was obvious that the scolding was quite dirty.
"John." Qiu Zhang also came to the Owlery, holding two letters and a package in her hands.
"Qiu," John glanced at the flying feathers inside and said, "I hope your owl is okay."
Qiu exclaimed and said, "It has happened before that owls would fight."
John didn't know whether to tell her which owl was fighting.
"Ten minutes ago, I remembered that today is my mother's birthday, and I have finished eating the candies. I have to order some candies." Qiu Zhangyang showed the letter in his hand.
"He's been a little busy lately, but that's a good thing."
With the gentle temperament of a Chinese person, Qiu Zhang is very considerate of her boyfriend Cedric who is busy with student union affairs.
John nodded, handed a letter to Basil, and said, "Maybe Cedric would like a different taste, how about sweet and sour?"
"Good idea." Qiu Zhang thought that Cedric had eaten a lot of chocolate and it would be nice to change the taste.
Basil took the envelope and looked at Hedwig defiantly, as if to say, I have a mission, let you go first.
Hedwig was not to be outdone.
After Basil flew out, the owls in the owlhouse finally returned to normal.
Tom ran to John's feet, and Autumn called a barn owl to put the gift and letter for his mother on it.
Find another one and let it deliver the letter to the candy store.
As he was about to leave, John saw Harry coming up.
When Harry saw Qiu, his breathing was stagnant and he looked very nervous.
"Hello." Harry was a little embarrassed.
He also had a letter in his hand, and he seemed to be sending it.
Hedwig immediately flew down and stood on his shoulder.
As if he just noticed that there was a third person, Harry said uncomfortably, "Hello, John."
"Harry," John glanced at the letter in Harry's hand, and Harry retracted his hand, "I'm leaving first."
Without another word, John left the Owlery.
Harry was left embarrassed, not knowing what to say to Qiu.
Autumn exclaimed, she made a date with Cedric.
Harry was a little disappointed, she still liked Qiu.
But Qiu is already boyfriend and girlfriend with Cedric.
He can't hook up with someone who has a boyfriend.
Clutching the letter to Sirius, Harry screamed in pain as Hedwig pecked him impatiently.
...
The Daily Prophet was thrown down.
At the same time, there was also a copy of the "Daily Bugle".
It was a newspaper from the United States, similar in nature to the Daily Prophet.
First, I opened the Daily Prophet and reported some things, including the Ministry of Magic's emphasis on education reform and the re-examination of Azkaban.
There are also some great sales on Gintama merchandise.
Once "I Swing the Sword at Hogwarts 2" was released, it once again hit a new level of book sales, and the plot reached a stage of huge reversal.
One of the sections on foreign countries mentioned that Plymouth Colony was attacked by thugs.
After all, the country's newspapers were not so detailed, John picked up the Daily Bugle and looked.
More detailed reports emerged of the Plymouth Colony attack, where a branch of Johnny Silverhand was attacked and the culprits were successfully subdued.
The gangsters were a group of dark wizards, and their methods were cruel. Many wizards testified that the Johnny Silverhand store was forced to fight back and killed several dark wizards.
The American Ministry of Magic took this seriously and interrogated the clerk at the time and more than a dozen wizards who claimed to be "passing by."
The confessions are consistent, and the American Ministry of Magic calls on wizards who run shops to prepare for precautions and not to be reckless in case of trouble.
Looking at the whole story, basically no one would point the finger at Johnny Silverhand.
After all they are victims.
The dozen or so 'passing' wizards were naturally arranged to avoid unnecessary trouble.
The Aurors also knew about the oddity, but unfortunately they had no way of finding out.
The security team escorted back a Death Eater named Antonin.
Under the care of Veritaserum, he easily revealed his purpose.
In order to capture those coveted 'Zhi' series products.
Aurors can equip it, and Death Eaters naturally want it too.
It's a pity that Johnson was born to fight against five people and directly beat up those Death Eaters.
Antonin did not expect that Nagini, who seemed to be helpless, would make a sneak attack and was subdued directly.
Putting the newspaper away, John noticed a piece of information that the Daily Prophet had missed.
Stooges Podmore breaks into the Ministry of Magic.
"Isn't this the unlucky guy from last time?"
John picked up the newspaper and read it quickly.
Podmore broke into the Ministry of Magic on August 31st and was on trial for the Wizengamot.
"People from the Order of the Phoenix." John smiled, "It seems that Dumbledore is quite busy."
The same information was also seen by Harry and the others.
"Do you think he is working for the Order of the Phoenix?" Ron asked in a low voice.
Harry remembered that on the day he went to the station, Podmore did not arrive.
By then, Moody was furious.
This attitude shows that Podmore was not sent out to do things by the Order of the Phoenix.
"Well, it's possible they didn't expect him to be arrested," Hermione said.
Ron shouted excitedly, "Maybe it's a frame-up."
Facing Hermione's murderous gaze, he lowered his voice and said, "Think about it, the Ministry of Magic has not acknowledged the return of the mysterious man for so long, maybe because it wants Dumbledore to leave."
His mind suddenly became bright.
Hermione thought it made sense, and Harry felt a headache when he thought about the pile of homework.
Especially Snape's, which is smelly and long.
No wonder the Weasley twins said they would miss some classes.
.L.The exam tasks are becoming more and more arduous, making them feel exhausted.
But it's not without good news. At least there are some interesting courses in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class.
The beautiful Professor Hilde taught them about wands and quick spell casting techniques in class. Umbridge had objections, but Professor Hilde would still teach them forcefully and would not be affected.
"At least Professor Hilde is a good teacher, isn't he?" Hermione whispered.
Harry acquiesced.
...
Some people died, but not completely...
