Chapter 549 Shocked Slughorn
As the fat old man in Annie's mouth - Horace Slughorn, it's not enough to hate him, but it really makes her not like it.
When he first came, as a courtesy, Annie didn't go out on an adventure with Luna and Ginny, and patiently chatted with the old professor all afternoon.
Once or twice is okay, come to chat every day, who can resist this?
When the elder brother and Hermione saw him coming, they immediately disapparated and ran away, holding her in front of the tank.
Annie is so annoying!
If Khosla was as interesting as Dumbledore, Anne would be happy to chat with him.The headmaster often used the double-sided mirror to chat with her all afternoon.
Even though he was in Venice, he seemed very busy.
But this fat old man who has retired for many years is very boring, he likes to chatter, and he always asks about his brother and Hermione.
Ask about their relationship first.
What is the relationship between the two... Do I need to ask?Tired of being together every day, she couldn't get in a word.
Even a fool can see it!
It was because Annie was kind and didn't tell Uncle Iris, otherwise her brother's leg would have been broken into several knots long ago.
Of course, Uncle Aerys might know about it, but he can't do anything to prevent his daughter from becoming someone else. He can only pretend not to know and barely maintain his life.
After Horace asked about the relationship, he began to inquire about the secrets of the two.
Seeing that Annie was full of ignorance, he mentioned the celebrities he had known in those years.
Anne yawned, and had to listen patiently, and now and then she said something perfunctory, and Horace was going to invite her to the party.
Annie didn't want to participate, she just wanted to use Polyjuice Potion to turn into someone else, and then secretly followed Hermione to gamble.
Thief exciting!
She also met Professor McGonagall and Professor Trelawney.The three can also exchange some gambling experience.
Although Trelawney is just talking nonsense most of the time.
The fat old man came again today, and threatened that if he didn't see William and Hermione, he would bump his head against the door of the tent to death.
Yo ho, touch porcelain?Will I, Annie, be afraid of your threat? !
hehe~
She immediately asked Luna and Ginny to keep an eye on the fat old man, and then went to find her brother.
Sure enough, it's not that the old man has become bad, but that the bad guy has become old.
"Okay, don't be angry, you can eat back tonight, the professor has a lot of good food.
If you can't finish eating, you can take it away. "
Walking on the road, William touched the little girl's head.
"Next time! You two don't use me as a shield anymore!" Annie shook her head fiercely.
"Understood." William said with a casual smile, "Next time."
Seeing that her brother's attitude was extremely perfunctory, Annie glanced at Hermione, suddenly pulled William's sleeve, and said softly:
"Brother, did Furong say when they will come? I miss her so much.
do you want? "
William was about to answer, but he felt a dark force coming, as if Sadako was touching his chest tenderly, chilling.
Obviously, Annie was deliberately setting him up to trick him!
William's reaction was so fast, the brain's CPU processor was overloaded, swallowed the original words in an instant, shook his head quickly and said:
"I don't know when she will come."
As for the question of whether or not I want to, I don't answer at all.Because whatever you say, it's wrong.
"Don't you know?" He narrowed his eyes and gave him a sideways glance.
"Yeah, don't you know?" Annie hugged Hermione's arm and echoed.
"Aren't you and Furong best friends? You often write letters, and there is also a sound transmission conch. Didn't you give her one at Christmas?
I also heard from Gabriel that you still let her come to Hogwarts to study, saying that you will give her free tuition, including food and lodging..."
Annie fanned the flames, looking as if she didn't take too much trouble from watching the excitement.
Damn girl!
William looked at the girl with the crooked head dumbfounded, and tapped her forehead lightly with his bent fingers.
Annie quickly hid behind Hermione, poked her head out, and made a face at him.
Let you be sure next time!
Hermione narrowed her eyes, curled her lips, and snorted softly.Now to save face for William, I want him to look good when I go back at night.
William rubbed the center of his brows, feeling a little headache.
The two of them will definitely not come for the time being, because Beauxbaton School will organize a group to watch the game.
But Maxim is still in Venice, so he needs to wait for a while.
It's not good for Fu Rong to come with anyone, so she has to follow her!
Anyway, last time in Venice, William didn't see Mrs. Maxime, and kept hiding on purpose.
There's no way, her fist came down like a tiger... William's small body couldn't bear Maxim.
It is estimated that only Hagrid can resist it.
But Hagrid is stubborn, and William recommended Mrs. Maxime to him last semester.
He looked disdainful, indicating that he was not interested in this woman.
He prefers to breed animals such as manticores and fire crabs.
I don't know how it's grown now.
What a crime, he insisted on interbreeding the two good species.
Unexpectedly, Hagrid was still the Mendel of the wizarding world, tinkering with the problem of interbreeding.
……
……
Professor Slughorn's tent is oddly shaped, resembling a giant slug.
William has seen it many times, because his tent is not far from Crouch.
After a group of people entered the tent, it became even more luxurious inside.
Emerald green, crimson and golden draperies hung on the ceiling and curtains. The room was crowded and stuffy, and a golden lantern hung in the center was shining red.
There are elves twinkling in the lamp, and each elf is a bright point of light.
From a far corner came loud singing that sounded like it was accompanied by a mandolin; several old wizards were chatting, their heads hung in the blue mist of their pipes.
Some house-elves creaked through the jungle in the calf, carrying heavy silver platters.
"William, Hermione... oh, of course, and lovely Anne, my dear children!"
No sooner had they squeezed through the door than Slughorn cried out in a bell-like voice:
"Come here quickly, there are so many people for you to meet! You are the protagonists of tonight."
Slughorn came, leading a group of people, wearing a velvet hat with a tassel and a white smoking shirt.
"Now," Slughorn said, like a presenter ceremoniously launching a big star.
"William Stark, Hermione Granger...the best wizards we've had all these years."
Slughorn blushed and said excitedly:
"Oh, you two should have brought your medals, you can hang all the medals of various countries on your clothes.
We haven't seen the French Order of Courage, and the Italian Order of Magic..."
The wizards were all whispering.
"William, I want you to meet Damocles, I used to lead students and invented wolfbane potion.
I hear your potions are of a high standard, and you should like him. "
Slughorn began to expand William's contacts, and he was also showing his strength.
Slughorn exclaimed, "Excellent wizard, very excellent, and he deserves the Order of Merlin."
A shaggy wizard with a strange smell came over.For a moment, William seemed to see Professor Snape.
Sure enough, potions masters are like this... don't they care about trifles?
"Mr. Stark, long time no see." Damocles said.
"Hello, Mr. Marcos." William smiled.
Damocles is the uncle of William's roommate Marcos, but he has a normal relationship with Marcos' father, and the two families hardly move around.
"Oh, you know each other? Of course, you both received the Medal of Merlin in the same year, so of course you know each other." Slughorn was a little disappointed.
"Yes, I also wrote to Mr Stark.
His paper in Potions Weekly, about the step in processing Acromantula silk, was brilliant and inspired me a lot.
By the way, do you have acromantula venom in your store?I heard that you have a lot of them, and I need them urgently too..."
"Of course!" William tilted his head to gesture to Qiu and Cedric.
With a wave of Cedric's wand, the quill immediately floated out of his pocket and landed on the sketching paper.
Qiu asked: "Excuse me, how much do you need? The courier in our store can deliver it to your home within half an hour."
"Oh, great, so fast!" Damocles was astonished.
Several people walked towards the corner and began to discuss the ordering of potion materials.
Slughorn was dumbfounded. He opened his mouth, but tried not to speak.
"Professor?" William reminded.
"Oh, then this..." Slughorn went on to introduce: "William, this is my dear Gwenog..."
"Gwenog Jones, the captain of the Holyhead Harpies, is famous." William held out his hand.
"Hey, William, long time no see. Are you really not considering coming to our club after graduation?"
Jones patted him on the shoulder with a familiar tone.
"Let's talk about it, it's still early." William shook his head.
"Okay, but your last move, the Chaser of our team, has been learned for a long time but failed. You have to teach it yourself."
"That's easy." William blinked.
"You know each other too?" Slughorn said in shock.
"Yeah, professor, don't you know? William is also a genius at Quidditch.
He led Ravenclaw to consecutive Quidditch Cups. said Jones.
Soon, the twins and Gwenog Jones found a deserted corner, discussing each other's batting skills.
William, who was overwhelmed by the stars, returned to his friends, introduced some wizards, and talked and laughed happily with many Ministry of Magic officials.
Slughorn smiled a little.
This is the network of contacts he is most proud of, and he is ready to show it and stick to the two flying eagles, William and Hermione.
But I didn't expect that his network of relationships is also very wide.
The most exasperating thing is that he is still developing his business. In this short period of time, he has already negotiated several big deals.
Slughorn's eyes darkened, and he felt his high blood pressure was about to rise.
