"Did you bully people too hard?" Malfoy felt that maybe he bullied people too hard.

John glanced at him. Couldn't this guy see that Neville was accumulating emotions in silence.

While Malfoy was thinking, he caught a glimpse of Astoria from the corner of his eye and immediately put the matter behind him.

John watched Malfoy leave, then looked at Daphne who was hesitating beside him, and asked strangely: "Your sister just walked over."

"ah?"

Daphne still looked like she was thinking, so she looked a little dazed.

John couldn't help but sigh, after all, it was just a papery family relationship.

There was still a week before the Yule Ball, and Daphne was debating whether to say it or not.

At this moment, Fleur walked over generously and extended an invitation to John.

"John, do you want to be my dance partner?"

As she spoke, her eyes glanced at Daphne, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

It looked like a deliberate provocation, which immediately made Daphne furious.

"No!" Daphne stood up suddenly.

Fleur raised her eyebrows and said casually: "You didn't invite John, why can't you let John be my dance partner?"

She really couldn't stand it anymore. Originally, Fleur thought that John would be invited by Daphne, so she didn't even consider John.

As a result, these two people were only a few days away from the Yule Ball, and there was no movement at all.

As the eldest sister, Furong might as well step in and help them.

As for letting John invite Daphne?

Don't be kidding, she would rather believe that John invited Heinrich.

Anyone who is not blind in the Star Club can see what Daphne means. Unfortunately, John is the one who is blind at such a young age.

Daphne was speechless and stammered in defense: "John is not free, right."

She just said it casually, but John actually nodded.

"Indeed, I'm sorry, Fleur, I have something to deal with that day."

As soon as he finished speaking, Fleur had a weird look on her face, and Daphne couldn't help but regret it and asked: "John, aren't you going to participate?"

The girl's eyes were full of expectation, but it was a pity that John was really not free that day.

John responded to her with one sentence: "I'm sorry."

The color in Daphne's eyes dimmed, Fleur shrugged and said, "Okay, then I will have to invite others."

After Fleur left, Malfoy came back with a happy face.

He didn't notice that the atmosphere was a little gloomy. When he saw the two people getting very close, he asked very desperately: "What's wrong? John, did you invite Daphne?"

What greeted him was Daphne's murderous eyes.

By coincidence, Astoria came over at this time and asked, "What dress should I wear?"

Malfoy saw a plate of egg tarts flying towards him out of the corner of his eye.



Neville kept waking up from his dreams recently. He dreamed that his parents were kidnapped by someone who infiltrated the school, and that person told him to leave the school in a sinister way.

The figures around him shook, and they laughed loudly, laughing at Neville.

"If you don't leave school, then your parents will disappear forever."

"no, do not want!"

Neville woke up and screamed. He opened his eyes and looked around. He was still in the dormitory.

"What's wrong?" Ron muttered indistinctly.

"fine."

In reply, Neville saw Ron fall down and go back to sleep.

After waking up, Neville couldn't sleep.

He got up and walked out of bed, came to the window, and looked at the heavy snow falling outside.

The sound of the wind blowing through the crack in the door was like a ghost, and it sounded particularly penetrating.

He quietly opened the door and walked down to the common room.

At this time, the lights in the common room were turned off and no one was there.

The day after tomorrow is the Yule Ball, and Neville has not invited a dance partner.

After he walked to the sofa and sat down for a while, the badge of stars that he had been reluctant to take off vibrated.

He was stunned for a moment, then seemed to remember that he had subconsciously put on the badge.

Reaching out to touch it, his face was full of bitterness.

The moment your finger touched the badge, a shadow popped up from the badge.

It's a message from Percy.

"Neville, I can't believe it, John is crazy."

Neville was stunned when he saw this message and asked what was wrong.

Just see the messages popping up constantly.

"John left school."

"Heinrich said he kept thinking about the hospital and stuff."

"He said it was a shame and he wanted to change this shame."

"To imprison people in a place where they will never be found."

"I followed him. In that direction, it seemed like the Whomping Willow."

"No, he found me!"

When Neville saw the news, he suddenly remembered his dream.

He staggered to his feet and ran out of the common room without even putting on his coat.



Inside the Screaming Shack.

John sat there with two wands on the table.

Percy said the last sentence of 'Save me', looked at John with a complicated expression, and said, "Is this really what you want?"

John shrugged indifferently and said calmly: "During this period, the kindness you occasionally showed him has become a life-saving straw, hasn't it."

The Society of Stars isolates Neville, while Percy is responsible for releasing a little bit of goodwill.

Neville had already regarded Percy as a life-saving straw. This straw was about to be pulled out by John, so Neville naturally couldn't sit still.

"Okay," Percy sighed helplessly and said, "I know I can't change your mind."

His eyes moved to the collapsed bed. He didn't expect that John had so many magical powers that he could really kidnap people out of the hospital.

On the bed, the Longbottoms slept peacefully. It was John who contacted Tang Mi and Jin and stole them out of the hospital overnight.

They needed to finish everything here, and Percy took the small bag with many potions with him.

"Percy, I think we need to be real."

"Wait, you want to..."

A red light lit up in front of his eyes, and Percy was knocked unconscious.

John waited quietly, and soon Neville triggered the magic left in the secret passage of the Whomping Willow.

Standing up to do some stretching, John rubbed his cheeks with both hands.

Put the anonymous wand into your waist. You will need to rely on this wand to help Neville successfully counterattack later.

After waiting like this for a while, John heard the door being broken.

He was immediately possessed by the movie king and turned his head to look behind him in surprise.

Before he could put away the ferociousness and paleness on his face, Percy fell there where John's wand was pointing, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.

"John!"

Neville, who was originally upset because of Percy's last words, completely collapsed at this time.

He roared and rushed towards John, who had a trace of panic on his face.

Of course, it was just a trace. Soon John reacted and shot out a banishing spell with his wand, knocking Neville away.

"Neville Longbottom, you are so brave, you actually dare to appear in front of me."

Neville hit the wall with a solid thud from his back.

John looked at Neville condescendingly, with a look of disdain on his lips.

"Why," Neville asked angrily, "Why do you want to attack Percy? Isn't he a partner?"

"partner?"

John smiled coldly, seeming to be mocking Neville's naivety.

"They are just my subordinates. You really think that I will treat the Star Club as a friend. You are laughing to death."

John smiled, pointed his wand, and the red light hit Neville.

"Crucio"

Neville screamed, his eyes bloodshot, staring at John.

John sneered, and the Cruciatus Curse continued to torture Neville along with the whispers of the devil.

"It's nothing more than a tool I use to gain power. Let me tell you, Neville Longbottom, you make me sick. You are a pure-blooded person, but you are nothing more than a local dog wagging its tail and begging for mercy."

He sneered and defeated Neville's last line of defense.

"Shut up!!"

Like a trapped animal, Neville roared, and two figures appeared in the corner of his eye. He looked in the direction of the bed, his eyes widening.

"Mom and dad?"

"Oh? It seems you found the gift I prepared for you."

John smiled like a devil, "Do you like this gift? I can only blame you, Neville. It's because you don't want to disappear that I did this."

Seemingly because he had a chance to win, John approached Neville leisurely.

Neville wanted to kill John.

Suddenly, he discovered the wand that was 'inadvertently' exposed on John's waist.

Blessed to the soul, Neville calculated the distance.

When the distance was enough, Neville shouted loudly and slammed into John with all his strength.

John was knocked down unexpectedly.

The wand from his waist was empty and appeared in Neville's hand.

Neville was extremely angry, and with the resentment and malice he had during this period, he loudly recited the spell he had practiced many times.

"Crucio"



Chapter 217 Piecing together and repairing

Before the red color representing anger fell on him, John turned around suddenly and put his hand on Mr. Longbottom's hand.

"We have different hearts and dreams."
