Mike ignored Franklin, but walked straight to the Ravenclaw lounge.

In the Defense Against the Dark Arts class just now, he did so much that he was not confined. This is really a lucky thing, so now he just wants to leave the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom quickly, in case Snee Pu suddenly remembered this.

However, when he came to the entrance of the Ravenclaw lounge, he found that Harry and the three had already been waiting here.

"Mike!"*3

"Anything? Everyone."

Harry and the others looked at each other, but in the end Hermione gritted her teeth and stood up and said:

"That's it, Mike. Where did the "Advanced Potions Making" you gave to Harry come from? Why are the potions recipes on it modified?"

After saying that, Ron asked again before Mike answered:

"Oh! The point is, are the formulas above really better than those taught by Professor Slughorn at the beginning?"

Hermione rolled her eyes to Ron as soon as she said this, but Ron didn't care. At the moment, his eyes widened and he was waiting for Mike's answer.

"First of all, what I want to say is..." Mike said with a smile, "Ron, you guessed it, the modified formula in the Advanced Potions Making is indeed better and more convenient than the original formula in the textbook! "

After hearing that, Ron and Harry's faces burst into bright smiles, and then they cheered and hugged each other.

Mike understands their feelings very well. For anyone, this ‘half-blood prince’s note’ ​​is a precious treasure, not to mention the scumbags like Harry and Ron.

Hermione on the side was unhappy when she heard the words. She folded her arms and stared at Mike angrily, as if she was blaming Mike for handing the book to Harry.

"Don't look at me like this, Hermione." Mike opened his hands and said, "I am also doing this for your own good. This is a good book. Besides, although I gave it to Harry, you can read each other. This is good for you all."

"Yes, yes! You are too right!"

Ron said excitedly before Hermione could answer.

Hermione glared at Ron again, then said to Mike:

"You haven't told us where this book comes from?"

"I'm sorry I can't tell you the origin of this book, but you should have noticed the signature on the book, right? Half-Blood Prince."

Everyone nodded.

"What I can tell you is that you all know this half-blood prince, and he is already your old acquaintance."

Mike said with a smirk.

Now even Hermione's face showed a curious look. She frowned and thought for a while before saying:

"You use'him', which means that the original owner of this book is a boy."

"Please! Hermione!" Harry rolled his eyes and said, "He is calling himself a "half-blood prince." How could he be a girl? I want to say he must be a half-blood boy."

Hermione smiled awkwardly.

"Let me guess, since the half-blood prince can make so many improved formulas while he was a student, he must be very talented in potions, so he should be a big man now! This is easy to guess, after all. We don’t know many people with outstanding potions talent."

"Are you talking about Dumbledore?"

"Dumbledore's potions grades as a student were very good?"

"Uh, I don't know, but I really can't think of anyone else. After all, it can't be Snape?"

"Thank you for the joke, I was laughed at."

...

Hermione and Harry had a heated discussion about the identity of the half-blood prince, while Ron was indifferent. He didn't care who the original owner of the book was. The main book could help him in class. Cheating then it is a good book!

"By the way, you guys, maybe you should study the contents of this book. In addition to the potion formula, there are some more useful things for you to learn."

Ron's eyes lit up all at once, and his eyes were looking straight at Harry, as if he wanted to go back and start studying immediately.

It's a pity that Harry didn't think so. He glanced entangledly at Hermione who was still sulking, and said to Mike:

"Mike, did you go to the Defense Against the Dark Arts class just now?"

Hermione reacted as soon as she said this, her eyes widened, and she asked curiously:

"By the way, when we passed the hall before, we found that Ravenclaw's academy hourglass was missing a lot of gems, and it was almost empty. What is going on? Did Snape deduct your points too?"

"Oh, you guessed right, Snape did. He deducted 20 points from Franklin and put him in confinement on Saturday."

"That's not right. The missing points in Ravenclaw's hourglass are more than 20 points."

"It's true," Mike said, spreading his hands. "He also deducted 50 points from me because I made him foolish in class."

"It's not so good!" Hermione frowned. "You have already been deducted 70 points just after the start of school. You can cheer for this year's Academy Cup."

Mike shrugged his shoulders and didn't answer.

He is completely indifferent to things like the Academy Cup now. In fact, if it hadn't been mentioned by Hermione, he would have almost forgotten about it.

Ron and Harry were very excited. They were very interested in Snape's embarrassment and wanted to hear Mike talk about the specific situation at the time.

It's a pity that Mike didn't want to do this. In his opinion, this is really nothing to be proud of.

"I was also confined by Snape! It was because he wanted to curse me in class, and I happened to use armor to block it!" Harry said cheerfully, "I just don't use it. Really go to be locked up, because I have to go to Dumbledore on Saturday night."

As soon as Mike raised his brows, he sensitively grasped the key points in Harry's words and asked softly:

"Did Dumbledore say what to do with you?"

"Um, he didn't say anything in the letter to me, but I guess it should teach me Occlumency." Harry said hesitantly, "After all, he started teaching me some spells during the summer vacation. , Also mentioned it to me."

It was said that Hermione and Ron both cast envy eyes at Harry. In their opinion, it was a great honor to be taught by a legendary wizard like Dumbledore, while Mike bowed his head and fell into contemplation.

Dumbledore's choice to teach Harry personally just shows that his only time is running out. His current strength may have declined to a rather exaggerated level, so he was so anxious.

It’s just that Dumbledore’s situation should be pretty good compared to the original book. After all, Dumbledore didn’t want to destroy the Horcrux in this world to resist other traps set by Voldemort, such as the terrifying corpse. Cave.

Without these hardships, Dumbledore's current physical condition should be enough for him to fight.

Of course, it is estimated that there is only one battle. After all, excessive use of the spell will make his injury worse.

Thinking about this, Mike lost the thought of continuing to chat with Harry and the others.

After saying goodbye to Harry and the others, Mike hurriedly returned to the secret of Freemasonry and participated in the work of Freemasonry.

Before the next action begins, he must concentrate all the forces of the current Freemasonry into the secret realm of Freemasonry, only in this way can his plan be carried out smoothly.

...

Time flies quickly, and a week has passed since I left school in a blink of an eye.

In this week, although the Death Eaters outside were still messing around, and even getting worse, Hogwarts was peaceful.

I don’t know if Dumbledore’s Order of the Phoenix and the Ministry of Magic were too powerful, or Voldemort consciously avoided Hogwarts. In short, the students’ lives were not affected in any way.

If it weren’t for the daily Prophet’s Daily News that continued to report news from all over the country, the students at Hogwarts would have almost forgotten the fact that Voldemort had come over.

In this short week, Franklin also realized how outrageous he was when choosing courses.

After abandoning many elective courses, he did have a lot of free time, but at the same time the number of homework assigned by the professors and the difficulty of the homework increased exponentially.

At the same time, not only the Defense Against the Dark Arts class, but also Professor McGonagall's Polymorphology class and Professor Flivy's Curse class began to require students to use silent spells in class.

This can embarrass everyone.

Today's Ravenclaw lounge can be seen everywhere in the sixth grader sitting there holding a magic wand motionless, with a flushed face.

The junior wizards once thought it was a potion lesson Slughorn gave these seniors what constipation potion, and after some inquiries, they learned that these people were practicing silent spells.

The superposition of all this made Franklin not only lose those so-called spare time, but also need to squeeze some time from his meal breaks to practice the silent curse. It also made him completely unable to participate in Quidditch training. .

This is really a very tragic thing for Franklin, and it also made him admire the seniors in the seventh grade.

The sixth grade alone is already so hard, then the seventh grade is not a hell-like life on earth!

Harry's situation is similar to Franklin's. No, it should be said that Harry's situation is more miserable than Franklin's, because Harry is the captain of this year's Gryffindor Quidditch team, and he is also responsible for the team. A series of matters, including newcomer selection and daily training.

This made Harry's rest time greatly compressed, and deep dark circles appeared on his face.

Hermione was more serious than Harry's dark circles.

This little girl had a lot more courses than Mike and the others, which made Hermione study almost 24 hours a day, but even with such a lot of subjects, Hermione still couldn't keep up.

There is no other way. Hermione is not a genius, or she is a genius of hard work.

Her learning efficiency is actually not high. She used to rely solely on diligence to make up for her shortcomings in talent.

This approach may have been very effective in the past, but after the burden of studying has increased greatly, it will not be of much use. After all, there are only 24 hours a day, and Hermione cannot squeeze out the 25th hour even if she tries hard .

Mike guessed that Hermione must have missed the time twister very much. Unfortunately, including the one that Professor McGonagall lent to Hermione, all the time twisters in the entire country were lost in the Ministry of Magic war at the end of last semester. Destroyed.

What made Hermione even more irritated was that Harry and Ron relied on the "Half-Blood Prince's Textbook" to achieve excellent results in the potions class, better than Hermione, second only to Mike.

Now Slughorn is almost confessing the three of them as ancestors. Not only does he often praise the three of them for their talents in potions, but they also give them extra points at every turn. Mike and Franklin were deducted from Snape. The score has already been doubled here at Slughorn.

This was something Hermione could not tolerate. In her opinion, Harry, Mike, and Ron were completely cheated to win the favor of Professor Slughorn.

After all, she was the one who worked the hardest, but she didn't get any return for her efforts. Instead, it was the opportunists like Harry and Mike who had the upper hand.

For this reason, she almost broke up with Mike and the others.

Harry had also persuaded Hermione to use the "Half-Blood Prince" formula with them, but it was a pity that Hermione did not listen to persuasion at all, and used her own old method.

Mike was speechless about this. He couldn't understand Hermione's thoughts at all. He could only attribute it to Hermione because she stayed up late for a long time with endocrine disorders, which led to emotional agitation, and maybe yj disorders occurred.

For this reason, Mike even consulted Professor Slughorn about the relevant treatment procedures, and told Hermione very vaguely through chatting and telling jokes.

As for whether Hermione listened to then he didn't know.

Mike had a good life this week. Since he had already mastered the silent release of a large number of spells, his after-school time, which was nothing in the eyes of others, became a genuine rest for him.

However, he did not let himself live too comfortably. As long as he had free time, he would dive into the secret of Freemasonry, either dealing with the work of Freemasonry, or meditating in the meditation room.

Especially for the latter, Mike's time spent on this is amazing, because he has a hunch that as his body develops, the bottleneck that restrains his magic and spiritual power is gradually loosening.

And what he has to do now is to practice hard, in order to make a breakthrough as soon as possible, to make his strength to the next level.

Therefore, although Mike has a lot of time, he still looks listless every day. For this reason, Professor Flitwick has not less to educate Mike, but Mike still insists on going his own way.

Because the time left for him is running out, he must destroy Voldemort before Dumbledore falls completely!
