Hogwarts: I will never become the Dark Lord

"Really?" Hermione took the warrant from Harry, looked at the large, cursive signature on the note, and then flipped to the Defense Against the Dark Arts textbook to compare the signatures.

"Harry, how did you do that? You got the warrant so quickly!" Ron was equally surprised, putting down the pie he was holding.

"Last night Lockhart asked me to write letters to his fans, and I took the opportunity to ask him for some!"

"Great! With this, we can get into the restricted book section!"

"The professors won't let students into the restricted section!" Jerry poured cold water on Hermione's excited expression. "After you get the warrant, go to the library and tell Mrs. Pince the book's title. She'll go to the restricted section, retrieve the book, and give it to you!"

"I thought I could browse the restricted book section!"

"You really want to go inside and have a look? I could take you in sometime!"

Hearing Jerry's words, Hermione moved closer to where he was sitting and asked in a low voice, "Jerry, are you talking about Professor Dumbledore's warrant?"

Jerry shook his head. "Are you kidding me? You need a pass to enter a restricted area?"

My grandfather, Albus!

Hogwarts now has the surname Dumbledore!

Since the beginning of last semester, Dumbledore has barely paid any attention to him, and he has been going in and out of the forbidden section countless times!

"Jerry, you're not planning to sneak me in tonight, are you? No, that's too dangerous."

"Don't worry! You forgot I have the Marauder's Map. As long as I don't get caught, it's not against the rules!"

Previously, when Hermione heard Jerry say this, she always thought he was making excuses. But now, it seems to make some sense.

……

"no one!"

Ron's little head peeked out from the corner of the wall and spoke to Harry behind him.

"Is this the place? Why did Jerry and Hermione choose a women's restroom?"

"Probably! Let's go in first. I felt like Malfoy was giving me weird looks when we were in the library!" Harry couldn't help but shudder at the thought of the annoying Malfoy.

On the second floor of Hogwarts Castle, in the long-neglected girls' restroom, Ron and Harry tiptoed in and whispered, "Jerry~ Hermione~ are you in there?"

"Why are you two acting so suspiciously?"

Upon seeing Jerry, the two breathed a sigh of relief. "When Lockhart gave us the warrant, he didn't ask what kind of book it was. He probably thought we wanted to borrow some storybook!"

“Anyway, it’s Lockhart’s order. He’ll take the lead if anything happens, so what are you afraid of?” Jerry said, snatching the slightly moldy book from Harry’s hands.

"Jerry, why did you choose a women's restroom? Are you sure you want to brew potions here?"

“Ask Hermione! I didn’t choose this place!” Jerry chuckled.

This isn't just the women's restroom, it's also the entrance to a secret room!

I don't know what Salazar Slytherin was thinking, putting the entrance to the Chamber of Secrets in a place like this!

"Never mind all that for now! Let's find the recipe first. I've never made such a high-level potion before!" Hermione rubbed her hands together after tidying up the potion-making equipment, forgetting all about school rules, and walked over excitedly.

Hiss! After turning just a few pages, the group gasped several times!

No wonder this book is in the restricted section!

The book also contains some illustrations that are quite disturbing to look at, such as a person being physically turned inside out, and a witch with many arms growing out of her brain.

These images are not only terrifying, they also move! Even Jerry's sanity would plummet if he saw them, let alone Hermione and her friends!

How evil!

“Here it is.” Hermione fought off her nausea and discomfort and found the page labeled Compound Herbal Remedy.

“This is absolutely the most complicated potion I’ve ever seen. Lacewings, leeches, sapwort, and two-eared grass,” she murmured, pointing to the ingredient list. “We can get all of these things; they’re in the student lockers in the potions classroom. We can get them ourselves.”

"However, the two medicinal materials, the horn of the two-horned beast and the skin of the African tree snake, are very difficult to obtain. In the end, we also need a little something from the person we want to transform into."

"It's not nails or skin on your feet, is it?" Ron said with a look of resistance.

"Heh! You'd better not let Professor Snape know you're going to put Goyle and the others' foot skin into a potion, otherwise..."

Ron was speechless after Hermione's words.

How long will it take to prepare the medicine?

"It takes at least a month; the lacewings alone require twenty days of simmering!"

"So long! Hopefully, Malfoy won't have killed all the Muggle wizards by the end of the month!"

"What about the medicinal materials? Especially the horns of the two-horned beast and the skin of the African tree snake."

“I think there’s someone who definitely has these things!” Harry and Ron said after exchanging a glance.

Good luck to you both!

……

After Harry and Ron left, Hermione continued flipping through her potions book, while Jerry paced back and forth by the sink.

"Jerry, what are you looking at?" Hermione asked Jerry after closing her book.

"nothing!"

Are you going back for Christmas? Or are you staying at Hogwarts?

Jerry thought for a moment, then said, "I'm fine with anything. If you want to go back, I can go with you!"

"That's great! I won't go back either; let's stay at Hogwarts!" Hermione said with a smile. "Then we can spend Christmas together!"

"It's a pity we're only in second grade, otherwise we could go to Hogsmeade for Christmas!"

Hermione's words did give Jerry a wake-up call.

An orphanage is not a permanent place. I don't lack money now, so should I consider buying a house in the Wizarding World?

I wonder if the house where Dumbledore and Grindelwald had their passionate encounter in Godric's Hollow is still there!

"Actually, if you want to go to Hogsmeade, I have a way!"

"Ugh!" Hermione was speechless, looking at Jerry winking and grinning mischievously at her. It was definitely not a good idea; breaking school rules was probably the least of her worries.

"Jerry, where do you get so many... ideas? You have a way to get to the forbidden section, and now you have a way to get to Hogsmeade. It's like you know everything about Hogwarts? Did Dumbledore tell you?"

"Of course, Professor Dumbledore told me all of this. Don't worry, you definitely won't get caught by the professors if you're with me!"

To be honest, Hermione was a little tempted. Although she sometimes seemed like Ravenclaw's eagle, when she got reckless, she was more like Gryffindor than Harry and the others!

All I can say is that the Sorting Hat was pretty accurate!

Except for a small mistake, I was assigned to Slytherin, despite being so sunny and kind!

Chapter 106 He Chases He Escapes

"Hermione, let's go watch the Quidditch match from the stands tomorrow!"

On Friday evening, in the Hogwarts dining hall, Jerry glanced at Malfoy, who was staring at Harry not far away, and said...

"Jerry, are you alright? Why did you suddenly want to go to the stands?"

"It's okay, I'll go with you to the stands tomorrow! Hogwarts rarely has a group activity!"

Tomorrow isn't just about Slytherin versus Gryffindor, it's also about Malfoy versus Harry Potter! Jerry even saw Snape talking to Malfoy alone yesterday!

……

The next day at 11 a.m., the weather was hot and humid, and faint thunder could be heard in the distance from time to time. All the teachers and students of the school began to head to the Quidditch arena.

Two people at Hogwarts were unusual today. One was Old Bat Snape, who arrived at the Quidditch arena very early.

Another one is Jerry. Today, he not only came to the stands in person, but he even had a pair of binoculars hanging around his neck. If you didn't know him, you would think he was a die-hard Quidditch fan!

"Jerry, over here!"

Neville called out loudly when he saw the two of them; he had saved seats for Jerry and Hermione in advance.

"Jerry, don't you never come to Quidditch matches? What's wrong with you today? You even brought a pair of binoculars!" Neville asked, puzzled.

Hermione was also a little surprised; Jerry was behaving very strangely today!

“Players are coming in and out!” Jerry smiled, then pointed to the field, changing the subject.

The players from both sides entered and exited in turn, but the cheers were worlds apart. Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw both hoped that Gryffindor would win more, so it was already a miracle that the Slytherin players didn't get boos when they entered!

Soon after, Quidditch teacher Ms. Hooch arrived, asked the two captains to shake hands, and then blew a whistle to officially begin the match!

After both teams took off, Malfoy ignored everyone else and flew directly to Harry's side.

Taking advantage of its faster broom, it flew around Harry.

Through his binoculars, Jerry saw that as the two flew, Malfoy kept muttering something, probably mocking Harry!

What a despicable psychological attack! Jerry didn't teach him that trick; Snape must have taught him!

But judging from Harry's expression... it was incredibly effective!

"Scarhead, I'm faster than you!"

"Damn Malfoy!"

……

"Jerry, what are Harry and I doing! Dancing?"

Hermione watched Harry and Malfoy flirting and exchanging glances in the air, seemingly inseparable, and wondered what they were doing instead of looking for the Golden Snitch!

"Haha!" Hermione's words made Jerry burst out laughing. "Who knows what they're up to!"

Just when everyone thought that Harry and Malfoy would be locked in a stalemate for a while, Malfoy accelerated and crashed into Harry!

Fortunately, Harry reacted quickly, slowed down and raised his body in time, narrowly avoiding Malfoy's impact!

"Oh~" The crowd in the stands exclaimed in surprise upon seeing this.

"Potter, you can't escape!"

Malfoy failed the first time, immediately turned his flying broomstick around, and chased after Harry again.

"Foul! That's a deliberate charge!" shouted the students in the Gryffindor stands.
