v2 Chapter 1307： Spider network

For teaching and clinging to great wizards, Slughorn seems to have a strong obsession.

"Sirius is a very talented boy. He and your father are the best friends in school. They are always inseparable. They are the two best students of that class." He said, "Black family. It’s all in our college. I didn’t expect him to go to Gryffindor. It’s a pity that his brother Regulus is at our college. If both of them are there, I will be fine.”

Slughorn’s tone of voice, like an enthusiastic collector lost to his opponent at the auction, he apparently fell into memories, his eyes looking at the opposite wall, his body lazily turning, so that the whole The back is evenly heated.

"Of course, there are still many good seedlings in that session. As I said before, your mother is the smartest student I have ever taught. She is a Muggle. I can’t believe it when I found this. I was originally Thought that she is so good, it must be purebred."

"Ivan and Hermione are also Muggle-born," said Harry. "They are the best students of the year."

"Oh, yes, sometimes there is such a thing. The students with Muggle origins are better than the pure-breed students." Slughorn said, and quickly looked at Ai Wen and Hermione, " This is strange, isn't it?"

"Not surprising," Harry replied coldly.

"A terrible prejudice," Hermione whispered, with a hint of resoluteness in her voice.

"Professor, don't you support the ridiculous theory of pure blood?" Aiwen asked.

Slughorn is the last dean of Slytherin College, teaching Voldemort and the vast majority of Death Eaters.

Perhaps, like them, he is a pure blood admirer.

Paranoid, old-fashioned, stubborn, think that pure-blood wizards should be above others.

"what?"

"I think that whether a student can learn magic well has nothing to do with his birth, but whether the individual works hard." Ai Wen continued, "In ancient times, pure blood wizards will inherit the power of blood, monopolize magic knowledge, than hemp. The wizards who are born in melons are strong, but now they are exhausted and their knowledge is shared. Look at the pure-blooded wizarding family. What else is left besides the heavy burden? The magic world should break the monopoly of pure blood wizards. Enter a new era."

The reaction of the three men, Evan, Harry, and Hermione, surprised Slughorn.

"God, don't think I am biased!" he said, "No, no, no! I am not a supporter of pure blood."

"Your attitude makes me doubt this." Ai Wen said, looking back at the corridor and glanced, "Maybe we should leave."

"Wait, don't leave, this is a misunderstanding. I have no prejudice against the Muggle-born wizard. Abs can prove this for me." Slughorn said, "Right, Harry, I Didn’t you just say that your mother is one of my favorite students in my life? There is also Dirk Cresswell who is one level lower than her. Now she is the director of the Fairy Liaison Office. He is also a Muggle-born person. A highly qualified student has a good relationship with me. He still tells me the valuable internal news in the Gring Club. I have found out from him that you have encountered the details in Egypt."

They didn't wait for Ai Wen to answer them. He had a smug smile on his face and jumped up.

Slughorn waved his hand and pointed at the many shiny picture frames on the cupboard, each with a moving little man in the frame.

"Look at this, this is my former students, they are all signed photos. I will take them wherever I go. You will see Barnabas Goff, the editor of The Prophet's Daily, oh, Now he is the editor of the Hogwarts Magic, and he is always interested in listening to my opinion on the current situation. There is also Ambrosio Froom of the Bee Duke Candy Shop, every year when I celebrate my birthday. He has to send me a gift basket, because I introduced him to Césarlon Hakis that year, so that he got his first job! And behind, if you stretch your neck, you can see, It’s Gwinog Jones, the captain of the Hollyhead Habib team. People often wonder why I’m so good with the Habib team’s teammates, as long as I’m willing, I’ll get tickets that don’t cost money, and ......"

Having said that, he seems to be in a big mood and wants to introduce everyone in the photo to them.

Looking at this one-time or high-profile wizard, listening to Slughorn to describe their relationship with him, can clearly feel the influence of this old wizard, he is like a spider, weaving a Zhang's invisible big net.

Moreover, Slughorn seems to be happy to show off these relationships.

“Is these people your students?” Hermione asked.

"Yes, they are my best students. Of course, there are many people. I have taught more than this number of students, but this photo wall is too small, I have to put their photos together. You really should have a look. When I was on my birthday last year, the number of gifts they gave was enough to fill the room."

"It sounds great," said Ai Wen. However, he did not doubt that Slughorn had such influence.

The same oldest professor, unlike Dumbledore, will deliberately make his own students.

Well, excellent students and invite them to join the clubs of his organization.

"These people know where to find you, can you give it to you?" Harry asked, he couldn't help but wonder, since the gift basket filled with candy, the Quidditch ticket, and his opinions and advice. Those who can find Slughorn, how can the Death Eaters not trace his whereabouts?

Harry's problem made the smile on Slughorn's face suddenly disappear, just like the blood on the wall.

"Of course not," he said, bowing his mind, and his interest was very low. "I haven't contacted anyone for a year."

For a time, he looked a little uneasy and then shrugged.

"But... this year, cautious wizards try not to show up. Dumbledore also makes sense. I also know what he is going to do with you three tonight, but this time he will be at Hogwarts. Publicly announced that I am a champion of the Phoenix! Although I believe they are brave and admirable, I am not very fond of mortality."

"When you come to Hogwarts to teach, you don't have to join the Order of the Phoenix." Harry said, he couldn't help but laugh a little. "Most of the teachers in the school are not members of the Order, and no one is killed." ""

"Yes, Hogwarts is not equal to the Order of the Phoenix," Hermione added.

"Of course, unless you count Chilo, but that is what he deserves, because he is selling for Voldemort."

"On the contrary, Hogwarts is now the safest place in the world. If you read the newspapers on a daily basis, you will know that Voldemort’s return from this time is very big. In the past few months, the world has been frequent. There was an attack and every day was dead." Ai Wen said, "These are all planned by Voldemort behind the scenes. Don't you want to know why?"
