A few days later, Harry, Ron, and Ginny lined up by the kitchen stove, preparing to return to Hogwarts.

The staff of the Ministry of Magic’s Transportation Department arranged this one-time Floo network connection to Hogwarts in the Burrow’s kitchen so that students could return to school quickly and safely.

Harry stepped into the turquoise fire and yelled "Hogwarts!"

Then, while spinning at a high speed, he vaguely saw some wizard's rooms, all of which flashed past before he could see clearly. Then he turned to slow down, and he found himself stopping in Professor McGonagall's fireplace in an extremely indecent motion.

When he climbed out of the fireplace, the working vice principal hardly even raised his head:

"Good evening, Potter! Don't put too much dust on the carpet."

"I swear I didn't, Professor." Harry quickly put on his glasses and smoothed his hair.

Just when he was about to walk out of Professor McGonagall's office, he stopped in a ghostly manner: "Excuse me...Professor...Professor Slughorn's injury, I don't know if it has recovered."

Professor Minerva McGonagall put down her quill, put on her glasses, and glanced up and down at Harry... After a while, she replied slowly: "No... Horace is still in Saint. Mungo is in convalescence, is there any problem?"

"No...no, no, no...I mean, which teacher should be responsible for Professor Slughorn's potions class...it shouldn't be Professor Snape..." Harry knotted Baba asked.

"I don't think I know, Potter... Professor Dumbledore just told me that he has the right personnel!" Professor McGonagall replied calmly, "But considering that Professor Snape is quite familiar with this course, he The possibility is still great."

"Well...thank you, professor!"

In the fireplace, Ron and Ginny also appeared one after another... Harry quickly patted the dust on his body, and then walked out of Professor McGonagall's office.

...

The three of them walked towards the Gryffindor Tower together. Harry looked out the corridor window. The sun had already fallen to the horizon, and the snow on the ground was deeper than in the Burrow garden... In the distance, Hagrid could be seen in front of his cabin, feeding several night scorpions. .

"What did you just ask Professor McGonagall about?" Ron asked in a low voice.

"Find out who will substitute the potions class...Professor McGonagall told me she didn't know, but it is very likely that Snape will substitute the class..." Harry answered honestly.

"Okay...but I think we should know tomorrow afternoon...tomorrow afternoon is the first potions class of the semester!" Ron sighed and replied.

Harry couldn't help feeling his heart tighten...

If it's Snape... if it's Snape...

He must know that he did not make those potions based on his skills... He might even discover the secret of the half-blood prince!

After thinking about it, Harry Potter decided to turn around and run away when he was about to approach the portrait of the fat lady.

"Harry, where are you going?" Ron and Ginny asked loudly behind them.

"I'll go to the responsive house and come back soon."

Harry had already made a decision that, in any case, Snape would not be allowed to discover the prince’s secret... so he would rather hide the "Advanced Potions Making" that belonged to the prince in advance.

...

Run along the corridor on the eighth floor.

On the way, he even knocked down a low-grade girl who was dressed a little strangely, before he had time to apologize to her.

Minutes later, he suddenly stopped in front of the tapestry where the trolls were dancing, closed his eyes and began to pace back and forth.

I need a place for me to hide things... I need a place for me to hide things... I need a place for me to hide things...

He walked back and forth in front of the empty wall three times, and when he opened his eyes, he finally saw the door of the House of Request... Harry pulled it away and rushed in, slamming the door.

Harry was a little surprised to find that he was standing in a room the size of a cathedral.

There are thousands of books here, undoubtedly banned books, scribbled books or stolen books; there are winged slingshots and spiked flying saucers, some of which are still hovering weakly on the mountain of forbidden objects; some The broken bottles contained solidified potions; there were hats, jewels, cloaks, and things that looked like fire dragon eggshells; some plugged bottles were still shining with evil light; there were even some rusty handles His sword and a bloodstained axe...

Harry hurriedly walked into an "alley" in the treasure pile, turned to the right, passed a troll specimen, and ran for a short distance, in the broken vanishing cabinet (which was where Christopher Patrick disappeared last year) The one next to) turned left again, and finally stopped in front of a large cabinet with blisters on the surface, like being splashed with strong acid.

Opening the cabinet, Harry took out the "Advanced Potions Making" belonging to the Half-Blood Prince from his bag, stuffed it in, and then closed the cabinet again.

Just as Harry was about to clap his hands and leave, he noticed that another thing had fallen on the ground.

It's a book with a yellow cover

"Wait, why did I put it in my schoolbag..." Harry was taken aback for a moment and his thoughts returned to a few days ago.

In the basement of the Burrow that day, when he opened the gift to Mr. Gideon Prewitt... he was a little surprised to find that it was actually a book.

A "Magic Quidditch Ball" published in 1978.

As a Quidditch lover, coupled with the monotonous life in the basement of the Burrow, Harry turned the book several times while lying on the bed.

Unexpectedly, like the prince’s "Advanced Potions Making", the pages of this "Magic Quidditch Ball" are also densely packed with notes... It can be seen that the owner of this book once He is a very good seeker, some of his Quidditch views, even after Harry saw it, he felt that he benefited a lot.

Harry thought he had left the book in the Burrow, but he didn't expect it to be put into his school bag.

"Would you... leave it here too?" Harry whispered to himself.

He opened the large bubbling cabinet and placed this "Magic Quidditch Ball" on top of the previous "Advanced Potions Making".

At that moment, Harry suddenly felt that the book in his hand was a little hot.

Therefore, Harry quickly rejected his previous decision.

He took the "Magic Quidditch Ball" back into his schoolbag.

"You can see it when you're okay in the future!" Harry thought to himself.

...

Out of this "alley".

When I passed the broken vanishing cabinet, a pale face suddenly appeared in front of me, and I didn’t know what to do there.

Harry Potter was almost taken aback.

The other party also seemed startled.

"Potter?"

"Malfoy?"

Both men pulled out their wands almost intuitively.
