Drinking black tea calmly at Hogwarts

Two flowers bloom, one for each

At Hogwarts, the weather has turned warm and sunny in May.

On the first Saturday night in May, a group of fifth and seventh grade candidates came to the maze for their weekly practice session.

The students of other grades did not bother these candidates who were already highly stressed, and gathered together to practice by themselves.

A bright full moon hung in the night sky, and a slightly cool breeze blew through the maze, taking away the unique plants in the maze mixed with the smell of the sweat of young men and women.

Beside the tree wall, Harry held a piece of parchment in one hand and a wand in the other, and from time to time used Transfiguration to conjure the appearance of some dangerous magical animals, as imaginary targets for Neville to use spells to solve them .

After Neville had dealt with one of the fire crabs, Harry stopped casting spells.

Harry wiped the sweat from his brow and said to Neville, "Good job, Neville."

Neville nodded while sweating, and kept looking around.

When practicing spells with a group, the most important thing is to keep an eye on six directions and listen to all directions, because you don’t know when a spell that collides and changes its trajectory or misses it will fly towards you.

Just now, if Neville hadn't reminded Harry in time to avoid a magic spell that flew from nowhere, Harry would have been petrified like Ron who didn't dodge in time not far away. .

Harry handed the parchment in his hand to Neville. The long parchment recorded the contents of the Defense Against the Dark Arts owls exams for the past ten years.

Next, Neville randomly cast spells on Harry according to the real questions recorded on the parchment over the years, and Harry casts the corresponding curse-resolving and defensive spells.

After the two practiced for a while, Neville and Harry sat down on the grass to rest.

"Harry, what's on your mind?" Neville asked Harry who was sitting next to him.

Harry glanced at Neville, then shook his head and said, "It's nothing, I'm just too nervous about preparing for the exam."

Although Neville had a look of disbelief, he couldn't ask any more questions. Everyone would have something on their minds. He wasn't the kind of person who loved to gossip.So Neville followed Harry's lead and chatted with him.

"I don't think you should be nervous, your usual grades have always been good." Neville said to Harry.

Harry curled his lips, it was hard to say anything, with Hermione and Grandpa Gandalf as cheaters, if he didn't do well in his homework, he could ask Zhang Xu for a dynamite kit, and then he would die with Voldemort.

So Harry didn't accept this, but asked Neville: "Have you thought about what kind of work you will do after graduation, Neville?"

Neville raised his eyebrows when he heard Harry's question, and then said while playing with the grass on the ground with his wand, "My parents hope that I can also become an Auror."

"That's good." Harry said happily, "I also want to be an Auror, and Professor McGonagall said I need to work harder."

"I think you're fine." Neville said, looking at the beaming Harry, "Your Defense Against the Dark Arts exam

His grades are all good, Charms and Transfiguration are pretty good, but Potions is a bit weak. "

"You should be fine," Harry said to Neville.

"But I don't really want to be an Auror." Neville said to Harry in a low mood, "You know my herbalism is not bad, and I want to work on herbalism in the future."

"Wouldn't your parents be disappointed then?" Harry asked.

Every time Neville's parents were mentioned, Harry felt a dull pain in his heart.

More than two months ago, Dumbledore gave Harry a crystal ball in which a prophecy was recorded.After listening to the prophecy in the crystal ball, Harry knew that Voldemort had two choices at that time, himself and Neville.

At the beginning, Harry thought in his heart, if Voldemort went to Neville's house, would his family have a better life.

It was only later that Ron quietly told Harry that his mother had seen the Longbottom couple in St. Mungo's who went to the hospital for a physical examination during the Christmas holiday last year. At that time, he knew that the Longbottom couple had been arrested after the mysterious man disappeared. Several Death Eaters including Latrix Lestrange were tortured madly for ten years, and they were not cured until a few years ago.

What was in Harry's mind after that day, no outsider could know, but it seemed that he hadn't changed much.

Neville didn't know that Harry had so many thoughts in his mind, so he replied as usual: "My grandma said that as long as I can live happily, it doesn't matter whether it's going to be an Auror at the Ministry of Magic or growing herbs in a greenhouse."

The two of them just took advantage of the break to chat about the topic of work in the future.

Harry did have something bothering him tonight, but he couldn't tell Neville about it, because the things in his dreams had become more and more strange recently.

He didn't know whether he was crazy or Voldemort was crazy, because he saw himself biting Mr. Arthur Weasley from the perspective of a snake a while ago one night, he experienced a preparation 16 from the perspective of Voldemort. At the age of [-], he has not set foot in the world of adults.

It's just that the scene was too dark at the time, and Harry only knew that "he" was Voldemort, but he didn't know who the other party was.

As for the content of the dream that night and what happened the next morning, Harry decided to bury them deeply in his heart, no matter who, even Dumbledore and Ginny, he would not tell each other.

While having breakfast in the cafeteria in the morning, Harry suddenly remembered that Zhang Xu had quietly mentioned that Voldemort should live in Malfoy's house now, then Harry looked at Malfoy sitting on the Dean's table, and remembered the dream he had had last night. What happened here, an absurd idea suddenly appeared in his mind.

Originally, Harry also wanted to talk to Blake about other dreams he had seen during the last Hogsmeade week. For example, he once again saw Voldemort in his dream reading a new book by the candle Published biography of Dumbledore.It turned out that neither Black nor Lupine was in Hogsmeade.After returning, Harry wrote to Black, but he didn't expect that the other party never replied.Ron and Hermione, who went to find Dumbledore later, found that their headmaster had disappeared again.

Harry and the others were used to the frequent disappearance of the principal and other members of the Order of the Phoenix, but recently Harry felt a little restless, as if something was about to happen.

Just when Neville and Harry finished their rest and stood up from the grass to continue contacting each other, a sudden change occurred.
