Harry Potter and the Legend of the Temple

Chapter 480: Celebrity Network (Part 1)

"So, are all these defenses against the Death Eaters? Or me?"

Dumbledore did not continue the topic of the red runes on his hand, and turned to Slughorn.

"Hmph, what do the Death Eaters do with my old bones?"

The old man snorted and seemed very unconcerned.

"No, no, no, you have a great status among them." Dumbledore immediately denied, "At least many of them respect you because you were their favorite dean, right? You dare to say that you didn't eat death Are you here to win over you?"

Slughorn had been the dean of Slytherin House at Hogwarts for a long time, and most of the Death Eaters were students from the Snake House, including even the leaders. The Death Eater's bald head.

Slughorn glared at Dumbledore. Although he always liked to talk about the students he taught, those Death Eaters were existences that even he didn't want to get involved with.

"I never gave them a chance. Over the past year, I've been hiding here and there, never staying in one place for more than a month, moving from one Muggle house to another. This Muggle house not long ago I just went to the island for vacation, and the conditions are really good. I feel so comfortable here that I don't want to leave. You know, all you need to deal with Muggle anti-theft devices is a freezing spell."

Slughorn was boasting about his skills and had no idea that occupying other people's houses was inherently wrong.

"How clever."

Dumbledore echoed his praise, "But don't you think it's too tiring to hide around like this? Come to Hogwarts, it will make you feel more settled..."

"You said that damn school would make me feel calmer, come on Dumbledore!" Slughorn suddenly started to get angry, "Don't think I don't know what happened to Dolores Umbridge , if that’s your attitude towards teachers.”

"The consequences were caused by Umbridge's cooperation with Voldemort." Dumbledore said. "Harry can prove this. He was kidnapped by Umbridge at that time. I think, Horace, you are not stupid. Let’s use students to please Voldemort.”

"Humph, then she is really a crazy bitch." Slughorn said, "I have always hated her, ever since I was a student. And don't mention that person's name in front of me, Dumbledore."

"Are you afraid of him?" Louis asked

"Scared, no, boy, you're wrong." Slughorn said, "Well, he's a little scared, but he's the biggest mistake I've ever made in my life."

Harry looked confused, but Dumbledore reminded him:

"Yes, that was when he was called Tom Riddle. I remember that he once said that you were his favorite teacher."

"Shut up."

"Were you his teacher?"

"The current graduates of Slytherin are basically his students, Harry." Dumbledore explained at the side, "Of course, so is Voldemort."

Slughorn said nothing, just took a sip of wine.

At this time Dumbledore suddenly stood up.

"Are you leaving?" Slughorn's face was immediately filled with anticipation.

"Oh no, I just wanted to ask if I could use the bathroom."

"Oh, go down the hall, go out and turn left into the first room."

He waved his hand, and Dumbledore walked into the room. The door closed after he passed by, and the room suddenly became quiet.

"Don't be biased against me, kid. Although I taught him, I didn't do anything to regret others." Slughorn said to Harry.

But Louis didn't think so. At least, Voldemort knew how to make Horcruxes because the old man told him.

"Also, you two don't think I know why he brought you here."

"Professor Dumbledore must want you to come back." Louis said, the atmosphere seemed a bit awkward, and Harry didn't even know how to chat with the strange old professor in front of him.

"Everyone has their own pursuits in life, but Dumbledore knows what I like."

He pointed at Harry, eyes fixed on his forehead.

"You look a lot like your father." He said slowly.

"Yes, everyone says that..."

"It's just these eyes..."

"Like my mother." Harry seemed to have heard this so many times that he could even answer it quickly.

"Yes, as a professor, you shouldn't have any preference for any student, but your mother is the most talented student I have ever seen." Slughorn's face was full of pride, "Lily Yin Vance, a charming girl, lively and cute, I often tell her that she should enter my college, but she gets an unceremonious answer every time. "

"Professor, you should know my mother's ancestry."

"I know, of course I know, but so what." Slughorn spread his hands, "What college students should be like is just a stereotype left by people. Why can't students of Muggle descent enter Slughorn? Come to Trin."

"It is true that there is a Muggle-born person in Slytherin now, and there is a super ghost in her body." Louis said at the side, "Before I transferred to another school, I asked someone to find out about the current Hogwarts."

"Super ghost? Does Hogwarts still have this thing?" Slughorn was instantly interested, but Louis did not continue.

However, what they don't know is that Yin Lisi, a super ghost, has disappeared from the world in order to protect Natasha.

"That damn hat finally became human for once."

Slughorn seemed very happy. He took a sip of red wine and then continued;

"I think you are also a Gryffindor like your mother. Yes, generally wizard sorting is passed down from generation to generation. Of course, there is an exception. Sirius Black was sorted into Gryffindor. He is your father's oldest Good friend."

"What a pity. He is also a very talented boy, but I took in his younger brother, Regulus Black."

Hearing the name, Lewis's hands shook slightly, but no one noticed.

"From your tone, it seems that you are deeply impressed by all the students you have taught?"

Slughorn smiled mysteriously after hearing Louis' words, then he stood up and walked behind the cupboard.

"Do you know where the greatest sense of accomplishment as a teacher comes from? It comes from the achievements of the students you teach."

After saying this, he opened the glass cabinet, where there was a dense pile of photos.

The little man in the photo waved to the old man, and Slughorn showed them with a proud smile on his face.

"This is the greatest wealth I have accumulated in my life. Come, come and take a good look. They are all here."
