Chapter 1322

~4 min read 798 words

Dumbledore, like in previous years, happily gave his opening remarks.

Finally, he introduced Professor Slughorn.

"This year, we have a new professor... an old colleague of mine, who is willing to come back to his old job and serve as the Potions professor!"

"Potions class? Was Snape fired?"

It was Harry's voice.

"Ten points from Gryffindor, Potter!"

Snape said mockingly.

Darren almost laughed out loud.

Alright, it was mutual harm between these two.

"At the same time, Professor Snape will serve as the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor! Dumbledore ignored Harry's words.

He said loudly.

Snape waved his hand triumphantly.

His face revealed an unconcealable joy.

"At the same time, I believe many people already know the news of Voldemort's return...

He has brought danger to this wizarding world, he is a terror that people cannot avoid...

I think every student has their own choice, but while at school, I hope you can pay more attention to your studies...

If you discover anything inside or outside the school that worries you, or have news of Death Eaters... you can come find me at any time!

Alright, it's very late, I think you should get some good rest! Good night, children!"

Dumbledore said with a smile.

Darren stood up with the crowd.

However, when he was about to leave, Snape called him over.

"Go to my office!"

Snape said coldly on the surface.

In fact, when Darren arrived at his office, he found food neatly laid out on his desk.

Clearly, Snape was also one of those who noticed he hadn't eaten.

But Darren really wanted to say that he had already eaten in Slughorn's compartment, he had eaten a lot.

He really didn't want to eat anymore!

So he pretended not to understand and sat in Snape's office, waiting for Snape to come over.

He originally thought this process should be smooth.

But while he was waiting, he saw a figure slip in.

It was Malfoy.

He looked at Darren in shock.

His face revealed a fearful and worried expression.

"What are you doing here?"

"Does it have anything to do with you? Potter!"

Malfoy pretended to be fierce.

Darren looked at him steadily.

He suddenly asked: "I've always had a question I couldn't figure out, why are you so good to me?"

Malfoy looked up at him abruptly.

Darren's expression didn't change: "Forget it, I won't ask you why, for these few years, I know you've always been worried and concerned about me, and even helped me with many things.

At the end of last semester, in Umbridge's office, it was you who let them out, right?

You gave Ginny a chance... if they fought head-on, with their strength, they wouldn't have been able to leave there."

【Ding, Saint Father Value +100】

"What a joke, they were already very powerful, after all, you are members of the DA..."

"No no no, if they were really that powerful, they wouldn't have been caught by you, so, you gave them a chance.

Why? Forget it... I know your current situation, you might not be able to talk freely either.

But remember, if you have nowhere to turn, you can come to me, as long as you don't kill anyone, I will always be your backup!"

【Ding, Saint Father Value +100】

Malfoy cursed in a low voice: "None of your business, you should just take care of yourself! Don't die suddenly, then no one will be able to save you!"

He turned and left.

But as he was leaving Snape's office, he suddenly said: "Watch out for Snape!"

Early the next morning.

When Darren was eating breakfast at the table.

Snape came over to help them choose their courses.

Because everyone's grades were different, the courses they chose were also different.

So the progress was very slow.

When Snape walked to Darren's side, he asked in a low voice: "Why didn't you eat last night?"

"Not hungry, I already ate in Professor Slughorn's compartment."

"Pfft, just a slug who likes to recruit people!"

Snape said mockingly.

Darren revealed a disapproving expression.

But Snape stopped him from speaking.

"Alright, we are still in a state of not getting along at school, don't change your attitude too much!"

He pretended to be cold.

Darren nodded.

Only then did Snape look at his course schedule and say: "Let me see, all the courses... full marks, very good, you want to choose everything except Divination?

If you ask me, you don't need to choose that big oaf Hagrid's course..."

"Hagrid is not a big oaf!"

Darren said firmly.

Snape hummed.

Then he checked Darren's application form.

"Then you can just be exhausted this year!"

He threw Darren's course schedule to him, then dragged his robes and turned to leave.

Darren curled his lips.
