Hogwarts: Jade, stop controlling Harry!

It turns out that Harry Potter saved the wizarding world when he was just a baby!

He defeated the most terrifying dark lord of the time, a great demon named Voldemort.

That sounds so cool!

Xiaoyu found it hard to imagine how a tiny baby could defeat the most terrifying Dark Lord at the time.

But regardless, that's what Professor Quirrell told Xiaoyu.

Although Professor Quirrell is somewhat timid and cowardly, and a little bit poor, he is a good person.

He not only bought Jade a pet, but also treated her to shaved ice, and even answered Jade's many questions about Harry's identity.

It's just that people seem a bit too cowardly, actually afraid of someone who has been dead for eleven years. Xiaoyu objectively expressed her opinion at the time—if someone can be defeated by a baby, it seems that the Dark Lord Voldemort isn't that powerful after all.

Quirrell was so frightened that he trembled violently, even knocking over the water glass on the table, which shattered on the floor.

This left Xiaoyu somewhat puzzled.

Thinking of this, Xiaoyu shook her head, picked up her pen and wrote down her thoughts: Perhaps Professor Quirrell is a good person, but he is not very competent as a professor.

Unfortunately, Jade didn't get to talk to Professor Quirrell for long before another teacher, who called himself Snape, appeared and interrupted their conversation.

Xiaoyu paused her writing, recalling the black-haired man who, despite standing in the sunlight, exuded a chilling aura, completely out of place with his surroundings...

The other party dismissed Professor Quirrell with just a few words, although Professor Quirrell seemed a little unhappy when he left, and even addressed her as Mr. Potter.

However, when the professor mentioned Potter, Xiaoyu could clearly sense that he emphasized the word. So, Xiaoyu asked him curiously, "Does he have a grudge against Potter? Otherwise, why would he deliberately emphasize it?"

As a result, Professor Snape remained silent for a long time before gritting his teeth and answering that it was none of her business.

Okay, Xiaoyu understands.

I've heard that wizards are all eccentric, and maybe all the teachers at Hogwarts have some strange tempers.

In short, after Xiaoyu finished speaking, the dark-haired man named Snape's attitude was not as cold as before.

To be honest, Jade felt that Professor Snape was more like a teacher than Quirrell.

However, he wasn't the kind of teacher who was loved by students; rather, he was the rigid and strict type.

He rejected Hagrid's suggestion to take Jade to buy a wand, despite her repeated pleas. His reasoning was that she had already caused so much trouble before even getting a wand. If she were to get one, her summer vacation might be anything but peaceful.

Although Xiaoyu vehemently denied it at the time.

But she knew for sure that the stern, unsmiling professor was right.

If Jade doesn't do something after getting the wand, she wouldn't be Jade!

Besides that, what impressed Jade even more was that after learning that Quirrell had bought her a gift, Professor Snape also stopped at a bookstore on the side of the road, went in, and bought her a gift as well.

It wasn't a comic book or storybook; on the contrary, he actually bought Xiaoyu a thick stack of Potions textbooks as a gift, although he didn't admit that it was a gift.

Snape also told Jade that since she was the famous Savior, she should also be the best in her studies!

He has no say in other subjects.

However, Snape wouldn't give her any special treatment in Potions class just because she was the savior.

Snape told her that she had to finish reading all these books before school started.

He will ask the questions himself after school starts!

My God!

Xiaoyu was dumbfounded. Making her read so many books was worse than letting her die!

However, Xiaoyu felt that Professor Snape wasn't as cold and unapproachable as he seemed on the surface.

On the contrary, Xiaoyu felt that Professor Snape's gaze towards her was somewhat complicated...

What was that word again?

Arrogant! That's right, this professor is both old-fashioned and arrogant.

Hagrid seemed to want to buy her a gift as well.

But not knowing what to buy, he could only tell Xiaoyu that he would give her a surprise in a few days.

Actually, it didn't matter that there was no gift. Xiaoyu still felt quite guilty for misunderstanding Hagrid.

There's no need to go into too much detail about what happened after that.

Xiaoyu's return to the Leaky Cauldron Bar immediately caused a sensation!

Everyone in the bar rushed forward to shake her hand and greet her.

Among them were several familiar faces that Xiaoyu had seen that morning, and she had even heard their names.

So Xiaoyu called out their names, and one of them almost burst into tears on the spot.

These are quite interesting...

The thought that she would be staying here for a long time filled Xiaoyu with anticipation.

After writing the last word, Xiaoyu glanced at her diary with satisfaction; it was almost like a short essay.

If only doing homework could be this smooth!

Xiaoyu found this notebook among a stack of potions textbooks; perhaps the professor intended for her to take some notes or something.

However, Xiaoyu planned to use it as a temporary diary. She wrote in Chinese characters, so probably no one would be able to understand it.

In short, Xiaoyu couldn't care less about anything else. She yawned and quickly felt a wave of drowsiness wash over her. Xiaoyu kicked off her shoes and placed the small notebook on the bedside table next to the stack of brand-new potions books. She hadn't touched those books since she got them back.

In short, let's postpone reading until tomorrow...

After taking off her outer clothes, Xiaoyu crawled into bed. Before long, she fell into a peaceful, baby-like sleep.

The fire lizard that had been lying next to the fire finally made a move.

It first sneezed, and a small flame came out of its mouth.

Then he slowly made his way to the bed, climbed up the bedside table, and finally stopped beside the sleeping Xiaoyu's pillow...

.....

Cockworth, an industrial town in England.

A dilapidated street along a dirty river, with a crooked street sign that reads Spider's Tail Alley.

In the darkness, the street was completely silent; not a sound could be heard.

Inside a two-story red brick building, with a loud bang and a tearing sound, a spinning figure appeared in the living room.

The long black robe finally stopped fluttering due to centrifugal force and began to hang down again.

Snape, who had just finished reporting the day's events to Dumbledore, slowly walked into the living room, a hint of fatigue showing on his pale and indifferent face.

Snape didn't sit in his armchair or go into his office as usual. He stood there for a moment, then finally fixed his gaze on the dusty cabinet next to him.

He then stepped forward and opened the cabinet door.

The inside was even covered in cobwebs. Snape frowned and pulled out a bottle of homemade red wine that had been sealed away for many years, the bottle itself also covered in dust.

Finally, he found a relatively clean glass before carrying the bottle to the sofa.

Snape placed the red wine on the coffee table, sat down in the armchair, and tapped the cork with his wand, causing it to pop out automatically.

Then the bottle floated up again, tilting towards the glass, and some of the darker liquid dripped down the side of the glass...
