Chapter 464： New professor

"Although you need to hide everywhere, but ... this year, the discreet wizards try not to show their heads." Slughorn said, "Dumbledore wants me to teach in school, but at this time Hogwarts, It is tantamount to publicly proclaiming that I support the Order of the Phoenix! I admire those brave people, but I must admit that I am not that kind of warrior. "The old man said his hand.

"Come to school and not participate in the Order of the Phoenix, how could there be so many risks?" Harry was overly nervous about Slughorn and could even be described as timid. "Most teachers are not members of the Order of the Phoenix, and no one has been killed. You know that Voldemort was only afraid of Professor Dumbledore. I ca n’t think of any safer place than Hogwarts Castle. . "

Hearing the word Voldemort, Slughorn fought a cold war, then grumbled reluctantly. "Yes, you have something to say. The person who can't even say his name is indeed afraid of Dumbledore. Since I don't want to be a Death Eater, then they will definitely not treat me as a group of them ... if so If I ’m by Albus, I should be safer. Think of poor Burns. If it ’s not luck this time, she might be dead. I dare not say that my defense here is more than the Ministry of Magic ’s defense for her family. better--"

"Horace," Dumbledore walked back into the room and raised a Muggle magazine in his hand. "Do you mind if I take this away? I like sweater knitting. Okay, Harry, We have been harassing Horace for a long time, and I think we should go. "

Harry stood up, and Slughorn seemed uneasy. "Of course, take it, but won't you leave now?"

"Yeah, since you rejected the job, it doesn't make much sense for us to stay here. Well, goodbye." With that said, Dumbledore walked out of the room with Harry with nostalgia. "If you are willing to really come to the school, I swear that the school has added a lot of safety measures this year."

Just as Harry walked out of the door, a shout came from behind, "Well, I agree."

Dumbledore turned around and saw Slughorn standing at the door of the living room panting. Watching Dumbledore stare at himself, Slughorn looked a little excited: "I must be crazy, but I am willing to go to Hogwarts as a professor this year. But you must not be treated less, such as adding me Salary, for example, I want the dormitory of the former vice principal on the second floor— "

"Okay, let's see you on September 1." Dumbledore waved his hand and then took Harry to go out. "Good job, Harry."

"But I didn't do anything. The few words I just said could not convince such an experienced old man." Harry said with some doubt.

"No, you have done a lot." Dumbledore said when they went down the mountain. "Slaghorn is a standard egoist. For example, he has always liked to make famous, successful, and powerful people. The powerful people bring enough convenience to their lives, and even select those who he thinks will be better in all walks of life in the future to build a club with himself as the core, he let them know each other and establish useful connections In the end, you can always get some kind of benefit, or get a box of his favorite pineapple compote for free, or have the opportunity to recommend a clerk to the Goblin Liaison Office. "

"Why did you choose him to be a professor at school?" Harry asked a little puzzled.

"Ah, he is still very competent as a professor." Dumbledore explained. "And even in the most dangerous times of that year, as the dean of Slytherin and a member of an ancient pure-blood family. Not only did he not turn to Voldemort, he was able to treat students of different ancestry more fairly. This is enough . "

"By the way, you need to remember. Professor Slughorn will want to put you under the door. Harry, you will be a gem in his collection: a boy who will never die ... or, use what they recently told you Salutation, 'Star of Salvation'. I suggest you stay as vigilant as possible, but there is no need to be disgusted because he did not do it out of malicious intent. "

After telling this, Dumbledore asked Harry to put his hand on his arm. When Harry recovered from the vertigo of phantom dislocation. Seeing a crooked silhouette in front of him, it was his second favorite place in the world: the Burrow. But when he was going in, Dumbledore stopped him.

"Harry, there are some things I need to tell you." Dumbledore said seriously. "I just treated you as a child at the end of last semester, which resulted in a series of events at the end of the semester. At this point I want to apologize to you."

"But that's mainly because of my recklessness." Speaking of which, Harry also seemed a little excited. "At the end of last semester, I can only say good luck, otherwise I will lose my two friends now. I have been thinking about this this holiday ... Look at Mrs. Burns, look at Emilyn. Wan … .. The next one might be me, right? If I really had my turn, I would fight to the end. Like Ryan, people who had nothing to do with this war were willing to fight to the end in the Ministry of Magic. The reason escaped. "

"Well said, it is the son of James and Lily." Professor Dumbledore nodded slowly. "There are some things you can tell your friends and godfather, such as the prophecy." After he finished raising his hand, he stopped what he wanted to say.

"You may not want to confess these things, or you may not want your friends to worry about you. But you must know that they are fighting for the same goal as you, and you can even live your life for this goal ~ www.novelhall.com ~ You should give them trust, just as they trust you. "

Looking at Harry nodded in recognition, Dumbledore continued: "Also, I think you already know what you are facing, so I will give you some special teaching. Of course, you can't help Follow Professor Snape's lesson in closed brain. "

"This is really good, those lessons are simply--" He stopped at this point, refusing to complain.

"I can understand your thoughts. Those lessons are basically useless for you." Dumbledore shook his head helplessly. "Well, Harry, before breaking up, there are two more things. One is that you better put The cloak is always with you, even in the school. Second, in order to welcome you, the Burrow has the strictest security protection that the Ministry of Magic can provide. These measures have brought certain to Arthur and Molly. Degree of inconvenience-for example, all their mail must be reviewed by the department before they can be delivered. But they do n’t mind at all, they are only concerned about your safety. However, if you take risks when you live with them, I'm so sorry for them. "

"I know." Harry nodded.

"That's good, I'm going first. You hurry in. I wish you a happy summer holiday." Dumbledore shook his hand at him, and then a phantom disappeared before him.

Harry looked at the Burrow at this time, and the lights in the house seemed so warm in the dark night. In particular, the silhouette of Ginny displayed on the bay window gave him a happy smile on his face.
