After staring at Peter on the ground for a while, Snape's eyes flashed with a fierce light.
"This is... Peter Pettigrew?"
Peter bullied him quite a bit at school back then.
but--
"Isn't he dead?"
Harry felt that it might be okay to tell Snape about this.
"Actually, it was Peter who told Voldemort the location of my parents, not Black."
"what?!"
Upon hearing this news, Snape was startled and turned his gaze back to Peter.
So he's the one who killed Lily?
Snape's face twitched as he looked at the unconscious Peter.
He instinctively gripped the wand hidden in his sleeve, wishing he could immediately unleash a few Cruciatus Curses on that fatso!
After glancing at the truth serum on the table, Dumbledore gave Xia Zhi and the other two instructions.
"Veritable serum is a controlled substance by the Ministry of Magic, and its use is illegal. But the situation is different now. You can't follow my example."
"Mr. Summer Solstice, Mr. Potter, and Mr. Weasley, you should go back now. You have class tomorrow morning."
Harry was taken aback, and quickly said...
"But--"
"Mr. Potter, would you mind letting me handle this?"
Dumbledore kept his head down, the light reflecting off his glasses.
"Believe me. If Blake is truly innocent, I will speak to Fudge about it and exonerate him."
Since Dumbledore had said so, Harry could only nod in agreement.
"Yes, Professor."
……
The next morning, Harry and Ron went to class after lunch.
They chose to take divination because it was said to be a very easy course to pass.
Summer Solstice and Hermione didn't choose this course, so they went to the library.
In the restricted book section, Xia Zhi glanced around and found that the dark magic books that Dumbledore had taken away earlier had not been returned.
He took a book on alchemy from the library, sat with Hermione for two hours, and then set off for the Transfiguration classroom.
During Transfiguration class, Summer noticed that many young wizards were looking at Harry with sympathy.
Professor McGonagall also noticed this.
This is a recurring event that happens almost every year.
Professor McGonagall sighed and asked the young wizards.
"So, which of you is going to die this year?"
A group of young wizards looked up blankly at Professor McGonagall.
How could Professor McGonagall know about Professor Sybil's prophecy?
Professor McGonagall sighed helplessly.
"Although I'm not one to speak ill of my colleagues, Professor Sybil predicts someone's death every year during her divination class at the beginning of the semester. Who will it be this year?"
Harry raised his hand.
“It’s me, Professor McGonagall.”
He didn't actually believe that seeing a black dog was an ominous sign.
After hearing from Summer Solstice that Black's Animagus was the Black Dog, Harry became even more convinced that the black dog he had seen was his godfather.
The dog was skin and bones and didn't look well.
It's hard to imagine how much the Godfather suffered in Azkaban!
Professor McGonagall spoke to Harry in a very serious tone.
“Alright, Mr. Potter. I promise you that if you unfortunately die, you won’t have to do your Transfiguration homework.”
The other young wizards all laughed.
Hermione said to Xia Zhi with relief.
"Thank goodness I listened to you and didn't choose the divination class. That class doesn't sound very serious at all!"
After lunch, the young wizards don't have much time for a nap.
They arrived at Hagrid's cabin and followed him all the way to the edge of the Forbidden Forest.
"Does this mean our first lesson will be in the Forbidden Forest?"
Many of the young wizards showed expressions of excitement and curiosity.
But Hagrid stopped at the edge of the Forbidden Forest.
He also held a book of monsters in his hand. Hagrid's enormous hand and strength easily subdued the restless book of monsters, and he spoke to the young wizards.
"Alright, now let's open the book."
You mean open the book?
Malfoy, who had always looked down on Hagrid, held up his monster book, which was still struggling despite being bound, and sneered.
"Open a book that's trying to bite off our hands? I think only a professor like you would tell us to buy this kind of book!"
Harry, however, couldn't stand Malfoy bullying Hagrid.
"it's actually really easy."
Harry glared at Malfoy, grabbed the monster book, and slashed the spine of it.
The monster book trembled and opened itself very easily, allowing Harry to do as he pleased.
Hagrid praised Harry's actions.
"Excellent, just like that!"
Seeing this, Malfoy, looking incredibly foolish, opened the book with an unhappy expression, while Hagrid went into the woods.
A short while later, twelve winged hippogriffs emerged from the Forbidden Forest, led by Hagrid.
Xia Zhi glanced at them and spotted two familiar faces—no, familiar beasts!
Xia Zhi estimated that all the winged beasts with eagle heads and horse bodies in the Forbidden Forest were here, including the two that had once pulled his carriage.
Although they hadn't seen Xia Zhi for two years, the DNA of the two winged eagles immediately stirred upon sensing Xia Zhi's presence.
They looked at Xia Zhi in fear, knelt down on all fours, and lowered their heads to show their submission.
The other hippogriffs also lay down upon seeing this.
Malfoy smirked and strode over.
"This is your first lesson for us? Not bad!"
But Xia Zhi stopped him.
"The hippogriff is a magical creature with a certain degree of danger. Approaching it rashly could easily result in injury."
Facing Malfoy's angry yet unspeakable gaze, Xia Zhi walked towards the hippogriff.
"And you've misunderstood. They're not bowing to you."
Hagrid was also surprised by this scene.
"Xia, do you know Buckbeak and the others?"
Chapter 321 Class
Xia Zhi nodded gently and came to Buckbeak, one of the two winged hyenas pulling the cart, and gently stroked its head.
The winged hippogriff was incredibly obedient and dared not resist at all. Instead, it rubbed against Xia Zhi's hand.
"That's right. They used to pull my cart."
Hagrid smacked his head.
"Yes, I'd forgotten! Professor Snape picked you up in his car! And then he took you to buy the things you needed for your first year."
Was it the Godfather who drove Xia Zhi to pick her up?
Not only Malfoy, but the other young wizards nearby also looked as if they had seen a ghost when they heard this.
I never expected Professor Snape to take freshmen to buy the materials they need.
Many Gryffindors suddenly realized the truth.
"No wonder Snape gave Shay a high score in Potions class. They seem to be on good terms!"
Riding onto Buckbeak's back, Summer Solstice had it carry her and asked Hagrid.
"Hagrid, how did you come up with the idea of introducing us to hippogriffs in the first lesson?"
Hagrid said hesitantly.
"Because I think it's fun enough. Being carried by a hippogriff must be a really great experience."
“But they are dangerous too. Hagrid, you can’t judge young wizards by your standards. Everyone come and take a look.”
Summer Solstice gently kicked Buckbeak's belly with her right leg, making it show its large, sharp claws, and spoke to the young wizards.
“Look at these claws, so strong and sharp. One claw could easily disembowel you. In fact, sheep and calves are also on the hippogriff’s menu. We’re not much bigger than them.”
Hearing Xia Zhi say this, the young wizards looked at Buckbeak's claws and shuddered at the thought of it giving them a good beating.
Malfoy, in particular, turned pale.
If Xia Zhi hadn't stopped him, he might be lying on the ground by now.
He spoke, his lips trembling slightly.
"I'm going to tell Dad that you let us come into contact with such a dangerous and magical creature in our very first lesson!"
Hagrid said somewhat uneasily.
"I'm watching from the side, nothing will happen."
Even Harry and Ron didn't believe it.
They all knew that Hagrid seemed unable to comprehend that many attacks that could not harm him and appeared to him as mere play were deadly to the young wizards.
By the time it actually happens, it's too late.
"Hagrid, you should probably tell Professor Dumbledore next time you're preparing your lesson."
Summer Solstice gave Hagrid a few words of advice, then rode Buckbeak and introduced this magical creature to everyone.
From habits and distribution to diet, and so on.
Hagrid, on the contrary, became a student and a spectator.
Ron grinned and whispered to Harry.
"I feel that Shapiro is more suited to be a professor."
Harry nodded in agreement.
Since last year, Xia Zhi has been able to tutor fifth- and even seventh-grade students.
If Hogwarts allowed students to skip grades, they could probably graduate in less than two summers!
After the class ended, Hagrid would instead come to thank Summer Solstice.
He said he learned a lot.
But in the end, Hagrid still asked, somewhat puzzled.
