v5 Chapter 58： stunned slughorn

As the fat old man in Annie's mouth, Horace Slughorn, he didn't hate it enough, but it did make her dislike it.

When he first came, as a courtesy, Annie didn't go out for adventures with Luna and Ginny, and patiently chatted with the old professor for an afternoon.

Once or twice, it's okay, and I come to chat every day. Who can resist this?

When my brother and Hermione saw him coming, they immediately disapparated and disappeared, holding her in front of the tank.

Annie can't be bothered!

If Khosla was as funny as Dumbledore, Anne would be happy to chat with him. The principal often used a double-sided mirror to chat with her all afternoon.

Even if others are in Venice, they seem to be very busy.

But this fat old man, who had been retired for many years, was very boring, liked to talk about things, and always asked about his brother and Hermione.

First ask about the relationship between the two.

What's the relationship between the two... do you need to ask? Tired of being in one piece every day, she couldn't speak.

Even a fool can see it!

It was Annie who was kind-hearted and didn't tell Uncle Iris, otherwise her brother's legs would have been broken into several knots.

Of course, Uncle Aerys may know, but there is nothing he can do to prevent his daughter from becoming someone else. He can only pretend not to know and barely maintain his life.

After Horace asked about the relationship, he began to probe the secrets of the two.

Seeing that Annie's mouth was full of ignorance, he brought up the famous people he had known over the years.

Anne yawned and had to listen patiently. Occasionally, Horace would invite her to the party.

Annie didn't want to participate, she wanted to use the compound potion to become someone else now, and then secretly follow Hermione to bet on the ball.

Thief exciting!

She also met Professor McGonagall and Professor Trelawney. The three can also exchange some gambling experience.

Although Trelawney spends most of the time, it's all bullshitting.

Today, the fat old man came again, and threatened to bump into the tent door when he couldn't see William and Hermione.

Yo ro, touch porcelain? Would I, Annie, be afraid of your threat? !

hehe~

She immediately told Luna and Ginny to watch the fat old man closely, and then went to find her brother.

Sure enough, it's not that the old man is getting bad, but the bad guy is getting old.

"Okay, don't be angry, you can eat it back tonight, there's a lot of good food there.

If you can't finish eating, you can take it away. "

Walking on the road, William touched the little girl's head.

"Next time! You two don't use me as a shield anymore!" Annie rubbed her head fiercely.

"Understood." William smiled casually: "Next time definitely."

Seeing that her brother's attitude was extremely perfunctory, Annie glanced at Hermione, suddenly pulled William's sleeve, and said softly:

"Brother, did Furong say when they will come? I miss her so much.

do you want? "

Just as William was about to answer, he felt a dark force attack, as if Sadako touched his chest tenderly, coldly.

Obviously, Annie was deliberately trying to trick him!

How fast William's reaction was, the CPU processor of the brain was overloaded, he swallowed the original words in an instant, and quickly shook his head and said:

"I don't know when she will come."

As for the question of whether you want to or not, there is no answer at all. Because whatever you say is wrong.

"Don't you know?" He squinted and glanced at him sideways.

"Yeah, don't you know?" Annie hugged Hermione's arm and echoed.

"Aren't you and Furong best friends? You often write letters, and there is also a sound transmission. Didn't you give her one at Christmas?

I also heard from Gabriel that you asked her to come to Hogwarts to study, and you said that you would give her full tuition, food and housing..."

Annie fanned the flames, looking like she didn't take it too seriously.

Damn girl!

William looked at the girl with a crooked head in disbelief, and gently tapped her forehead with his curved fingers.

Anne hurriedly hid behind Hermione, stuck her head out, and grimaced at him.

Let you be sure next time!

Hermione's eyes narrowed, she pouted, and snorted softly. Now save face for William, and go back in the evening, just want him to look good.

William rubbed his eyebrows, feeling a little bit of a headache.

The two will definitely not come for the time being, because the Beauxbatons School will form a group to watch the game.

However, Maxim is still in Venice and will have to wait for a while.

Who does Furong come with, she has to follow her!

Anyway, the last time in Venice, William didn't see Madame Maxime and kept hiding on purpose.

No way, her fist slammed down, and the tiger was powerful... William's small body could not bear Maxim.

It is estimated that only Hagrid can resist.

But Hagrid was tough, and William recommended Madame Maxime to him last semester.

He looked disdainful, expressing that he was not interested in this woman.

He prefers to breed animals such as man-headed manticores and fire crabs.

I don't know how it's grown now.

What a sin, two good species, he insists on all kinds of hybrids.

Unexpectedly, Hagrid was still the Montesquieu of the magic world, tinkering with the issue of hybridization.

...

...

Professor Slughorn's tent is oddly shaped like a giant slug.

William had seen it many times because his tent was not far from Crouch.

After a group of people entered the tent, it was even more luxurious inside.

On the ceiling and curtains, hanging drapes of emerald green, crimson and gold, the room was crowded and hot, and a golden lantern hung in the center shone brightly red.

In the lamp there are elf flickering, each elf is a bright point of light.

In a far corner, there was a loud singing that sounded like a mandolin; a few old wizards who were chatting with each other, their heads were covered with a blue mist of pipes.

Some house-elves squeaked through the jungle of calves, holding heavy silver trays.

"William, Hermione... oh, of course, and lovely Anne, my dear children!"

As soon as the group of them squeezed in the door, Slughorn cried out loudly:

"Come here quickly, there are so many people for you to meet! You are the protagonists tonight."

Slughorn came with a group of people, wearing a velvet hat with tassels and a white smoking shirt.

"Right now," Slughorn rolls out big stars like a host.

"William Stark, Hermione Granger... the best wizards we've had in years."

Slughorn blushed and said excitedly:

"Oh, you two should have come with medals, the medals of various countries that can hang on your clothes.

We haven't seen the French Medal of Valor, or the Italian Medal of Magic..."

The crowd was whispering.

"William, I want you to meet Damocles, I used to take students and invented the wolf poison potion.

I heard your potions are of a high standard, and you should like him. "

Slughorn began to expand William's contacts, but also to show his power.

Slughorn exclaimed, "A very good wizard, very good, and he definitely deserves the Merlin Medal."

A shabby wizard with a strange smell came over. For a moment, William seemed to see Professor Snape.

Sure enough, potion masters are all like this... informal?

"Mr. Stark, long time no see," Damocles said.

"Hello, Mr. Marcos." William smiled.

Damocles is the uncle of William's roommate Marcos, but he and Marcos' father are not very close, and the two hardly move around.

"Oh, you know each other? Of course, you got the Merlin in the same year, of course you know." Slughorn was a little disappointed.

"Yes, I also wrote to Mr. Stark.

His paper in Potions Weekly, on the step in processing the silk of the giant eight-eyed spider, was wonderful and inspiring to me.

By the way, do you have the venom of the eight-eyed spider in your store? I heard that you have a lot there, and I am in urgent need of..."

"Of course!" William tilted his head and gestured to Qiu and Cedric.

Cedric's wand waved, and the quill immediately floated out of his pocket and rested on the sketch paper.

Qiu asked: "Excuse me, how much do you need, the courier in our store can deliver it to you within half an hour."

"Oh, great, so fast!" Damocles was amazed.

Several people walked towards the corner and began to discuss the ordering of potion materials.

Slughorn was stunned. He opened his mouth, but didn't get in.

"Professor?" William reminded.

"Oh, then this..." Slughorn continued: "William, this is my dear Gwenog..."

"Gwenog Jones, captain of the Holyhead Harpies, famous." William held out his hand.

"Hey, William, long time no see. Are you really thinking about coming to our club after graduation?"

Jones tapped him on the shoulder, his voice familiar.

"Come on, it's still early." William shook his head.

"Okay, but your last move, our team's Chaser, failed after learning it for a long time. You have to teach it yourself."

"It's simple." William blinked.

"You know each other?" Slughorn exclaimed in shock.

"Yeah, Professor, don't you know yet? William is also a genius at Quidditch.

He led Ravenclaw to the Quidditch Cup several times in a row. ' said Jones.

Soon, the Twins and Gwenog Jones found a no-man's-eye corner to discuss hitter skills with each other.

William , who was surrounded by stars, returned it to his friends, introduced some wizards, and talked and laughed with many officials of the Ministry of Magic.

Slughorn smiled reluctantly.

This is the network of contacts he is most proud of, ready to show and stick to the two flying eagles, William and Hermione.

But I didn't expect that people's relationship network is also very wide.

The most irritating thing is that he is still developing his business, and he has already negotiated several big orders during this time.

Slughorn went dark, feeling his high blood pressure coming up.
