The Chinese girl from Hufflepuff is both timid and brave

After eating and drinking, Sun Zhu took out a new set of pajamas and stuffed them into Fina's pockets: "The toiletries are on the counter in the bathroom. By the way, let's go shopping tomorrow to see if there are any clothing stores that are open. You didn't even bring your luggage with you."

"Don't bother. In fact, most of my things are at my grandmother's house. I didn't bring anything with me when I went to the old house in Bulstrode. I can just go there and get them when the time comes."

After agreeing on the next day's itinerary and saying good night to each other, Sun Zhu returned to his room.

"Host, you need to rest well tonight. Do you remember that you were poisoned by a snake within the past 24 hours?"

"Of course... but I'm fine now." Sun Zhu touched his neck through his pajamas. "I thought I would have to stay at Sirius's place for a few more days and worry about how to deal with Dumbledore's suspicion, but I didn't expect to be back home already."

"Many things are always like this, with unexpected developments." Tongzi said: "But host, even if you are not poisoned, you can't stay up all night. At your age, if you don't get enough sleep for a long time, it will affect your height."

"...I understand. Give me half an hour at most to sort out my thoughts." She pulled the amethyst necklace out of her collar and sighed. "I wore a furry high-collared coat specifically to prevent Dumbledore from noticing the artifact around my neck. I was prepared for him to ask me a lot of questions, but I didn't expect that not only did he not ask anything, he also sent me and my dad to St. Mungo's."

She had many guesses about what kind of information Dumbledore had, and she was prepared for each one.

As long as Dumbledore made some move, she could infer more information, but Dumbledore did nothing, which made her uneasy.

Could it be that he had no doubts about her? After all, on the surface, she was ordinary, and neither her ability nor her personality seemed like someone who could do anything big.

However, as soon as she and her father arrived at the Black mansion, the slice of Voldemort that Dumbledore sealed in the Mirror of Erised disappeared... No one could be so careless as to regard it as a coincidence.

So... Dumbledore actually suspected her father? That's why he didn't pay any extra attention to her?

"This makes sense. Compared to an underage student like me, an adult wizard like dad is more like the behind-the-scenes hero who eliminated evil!" Sun Zhu felt that he should have guessed correctly, "But can I let my guard down? If Dumbledore suspects dad, what will he do to him? After all, we are not his enemies and we have the same goal."

"Host, are you sure Dumbledore is completely unaware of your information? So far, you have written two letters to him. One was written in the name of a passerby grandmother about Harry being bullied, and the other was the specific information of Voldemort's Horcruxes. He probably doesn't know your age, but at least he will know that it is a woman who has been providing him with silent help."

"Not necessarily... These are all disguised messages, and he may not really believe them." He pulled the thick quilt, changed his position and continued to lie on the bed. "But he didn't do anything now. At least we can be sure that he should not know the content of my communication with Harry and Voldemort. Otherwise, no matter how patient he is, he would not have said nothing at all."

"What if you reveal your information somewhere else? Anyway, if you want to continue hiding it from Dumbledore, you'd better be more careful." Tongzi sounded like he wanted to sigh, "Fortunately, he should not be the kind of person who can't distinguish between friend and foe."

"It's so tiring... But even if he really suspects that it was Dad who was helping him, at least he won't hurt Dad. If I really go to Dad to ask, maybe I can completely eliminate the suspicion. In this case, I'll just play dumb like him. Humph, maybe he's just waiting for me to lose my patience and reveal myself."

"So host, don't worry. Even if Dumbledore knows everything, it won't be too bad for you."

"But then, I would have too many things to explain, and I might have to explain to even more people in the future. Fear of trouble is only one aspect of it. I'm even more afraid that if too many people know about it, the plot will start to self-correct or have other worse consequences... In short, pretending is one of my principles."

"Don't you think it's a pity for you to do this? You've paid so much, taken such a big risk, and even got injured..."

"It's nothing. From the beginning to the end, I was not forced to do anything by anyone. Since I volunteered, it doesn't matter whether other people know about it or not. Their attitudes cannot determine my thoughts, so..." Sun Zhu closed his eyes, "As long as I know what I am doing in my heart, it's fine."

"But...if Dumbledore knew what you did, he would definitely give your house extra points. Then you wouldn't have to work so hard playing Quidditch, and the house cup would definitely be yours." Tongzi said, "I remember you regretted this before."

Sun Zhu opened his eyes at once: "Yes!"

Harry will be enrolled next semester, and by then there will be no chance for Hufflepuff to participate in the House Cup.

The most marginalized college in the original novel must be Badger College, which has no protagonist halo, no villain filter, and no wisdom bonus... For the general public, perhaps the most impressive ones are the two seniors who both sacrificed their lives.

Sun Zhu covered his eyes with his hands: "Ah... what can we do? We can't expect Dumbledore to treat us the same way he treats Gryffindor. Besides, I think the points I earn myself are more meaningful! Yeah, that's it..." It's not because no one gave us extra points!

"I see. So your next plan is to continue waiting until the next mission comes?"

"Xiao Tongzi, I can hear that you sound a little disappointed." Sun Zhu closed his eyes again, "Didn't you say that I should take the initiative? Then... of course I have to be more conscious. Tomorrow I will write a letter to Dumbledore and give him the dart dipped in basilisk venom."

"Oh? What identity do you plan to have this time?" Tongzi asked puzzledly.

"Of course it's me, Sun Zhu's identity."

Tongzi seemed to be a little confused: "Didn't you just say that you didn't plan to..."

"Don't worry, it's impossible for me to admit it. I will never admit it on my own initiative in this life. I can only think of a way to make up some stories to deceive the old man." Sun Zhu pulled the quilt tighter, thought for a while and corrected himself: "No, this is not called lying, I am an honest Hufflepuff. This is called a simplified expression of the truth based on facts and full of goodwill."

"You...as long as you are happy."
