Chapter 800: Side Story—I Am Not the Protagonist!!
Hogwarts courses are actually acceptable.
I can keep up with every professor's class.
But sometimes, I will perform worse, because Hufflepuff students are all like this.
I don't really like being the first in the first year of Hufflepuff.
So I will always be the fifth or sixth in Hufflepuff.
Often professors only give extra points to the top three. Like me, it's usually just verbal praise.
It's fine as long as it's not too bad.
Being too bad will also attract attention.
I faithfully let myself perform mediocrely.
But Darren Potter is truly excellent.
Every professor who has taught Darren Potter has praised him in class.
I also heard Professor Sprout tell Professor Flitwick that she wanted Darren to come to Hufflepuff, as Darren wasn't happy in Slytherin.
She didn't want Darren Potter to be sad.
I don't really believe it.
Darren Potter really isn't having a good time in Slytherin? That's unlikely, right?
Snape is backing him up, and there is also a girl named Cassandra, who is the first-year prefect of Slytherin, always following behind him.
Once someone wants to provoke him, she scares them away with one look.
And I heard that Darren Potter has a dormitory all to himself.
Is he really not having a good time?
I think these professors are like they are blind! But there are quite a few blind people.
At first, I could still hear some students saying Darren Potter isn't a good person, but after getting along for less than a week, they started saying good things about Darren Potter.
Saying he is very pitiful, saying he is the kindest and most innocent person.
True or false? I don't believe it! It's not that I'm narrow-minded.
I really don't think someone who can turn around their reputation in less than a week would be a "silly white sweet".
Pretending, he must be pretending!
But Darren Potter is really so cute; I mean his appearance. I won't comment on his character, but his appearance is just too much for me.
The system's aesthetic level is really great.
Every part of him steps on my heart.
I love it too much.
Of course.
I try my best not to look at his face.
To prevent being bewitched.
I still go to class stupidly.
Seriously, in the first-year classroom, the one I hate the most is Quirrell's class.
I have to overcome my own fear, and then act stupid, but I can't be so stupid that it makes Voldemort irritable.
Every time I take his class, I have to be 100,000% focused.
Although he has never noticed me.
This is a good thing.
I will absolutely not let him notice me.
Of course.
Even if I am so careful, sometimes I can bump into some things.
For example, Quirrell pulling Darren Potter to talk at the classroom door; they are discussing the issue of Defense Against the Dark Arts.
Quirrell is explaining eagerly to Darren Potter.
Darren Potter is also listening obediently.
The two of them are pretending so well.
I slowed down my pace.
I nodded respectfully to Quirrell, and then passed by them.
I, Polly Flynn, Passerby A!
A week passed.
I still come to eat early in the morning.
It's delicious, I like it very much.
I can only fill my stomach in the morning.
I won't let go of this environment where I can be full...
Why did Harry Potter come?
He seems to be walking towards Slytherin.
Hannah patted me hard; she was waiting to see the gossip with glowing eyes.
I pretended that I was called by her to look over, but in fact, I wanted to look just now.
I pretended to look curiously as Harry walked up to Darren.
Before, when the two of them weren't standing together, it was nothing, but when they stood together, I almost laughed.
They are really so different.
Darren Potter seems to have even his hair glowing.
Harry Potter is like a playful street child.
The transmigrator really completely overshadowed Harry Potter! Harry Potter came over to let Darren go eat and talk.
I saw Darren go over without thinking; Cassandra and other Slytherin students seemed to want to stop him; could it be that going over has a bad influence?
Don't understand, don't understand.
There are many things in Slytherin; who knows what taboos there are.
However, Darren Potter doesn't care, so there shouldn't be any problems.
I am more interested in pricking up my ears to hear what Darren Potter and Harry Potter are saying.
But it's hard.
Gryffindor and Ravenclaw are close.
I can't really hear what they are saying.
I also don't want to sneak over to listen like other students.
I can only lower my head and let myself calm down slowly.
Don't be influenced. I told myself.
I drank my oatmeal porridge in big gulps.
Hannah sneaked over to Ravenclaw to inquire about news.
I believe she will definitely be able to bring me first-hand news.
Sure enough, not long after, she came back.
She had a look of pity on her face.
"He came from an orphanage; it is said that when he left there, Dumbledore even paid money, and that headmaster is really a bad person."
I didn't commit. Hannah saw that I wasn't concerned. She thought the news wasn't shocking enough.
She went to inquire about news again.
During flying class, she told us with a crying voice what kind of life Darren lived in the orphanage.
It is said that he couldn't get enough to eat, was often beaten and scolded, and was even almost beaten to death by a guy named Kenley.
Is he that miserable?
I subconsciously thought of this sentence, but I quickly shook my head.
No, that's not right.
What I need to pay attention to isn't these.
But how did Hannah find out about these? Hannah didn't hide it.
"I went to find the house-elf; Darren even lived here for a while during the summer vacation.
The professors found out about Darren's time in the orphanage from Darren's house-elf, Pachi; later, when Darren found out, he forbade Pachi from talking about it casually.
He doesn't want others to think he is selling misery, not to mention he thinks he didn't live that miserably.
He is really so kind, good-looking, and so simple and kind; why would he be in Slytherin?"
Hannah asked me with a puzzled look, tilting her head.
I pretended to sigh with the same expression as her.
In fact, I was already giving Darren Potter a thumbs up in my heart.
It's really a "white lotus" method.
Now, I'm afraid Snape will be even better to him, right?
As for those people outside, they should also stop saying that he is a bad child for entering Slytherin because they sympathize with him.
He is really a master.
If it were me, I really couldn't act it out.
I can only act as a stupid person.
Because I was just an ordinary person in my previous life.
I lowered my head and looked at the broom that wasn't moving.
