Chapter 123 Draco, what are you doing?
On the night of the final, a lost Harry unconsciously walked into the library, to the small corner that he and Draco occupied last year.
It was also the place where he had quarreled with Draco and Hermione a few months ago.
I was surprised but relieved to find that Draco was already here.
Harry's lonely mood was somewhat relieved when he saw her long eyelashes and lively eyes flowing down her soft white blonde hair.
"Still looking for information on Transfiguration and Animagus?"
There's some distance between us because we haven't had a proper conversation for a few months.
"Yes."
Draco spoke quietly, but his voice was trembling a little.
After pausing for a moment, he watched Harry sit down next to him.
She added very softly, trying not to feel shy.
"And...thought maybe you'd come here too."
Harry just looked down at his hands.
Seeing Harry remained silent, Draco couldn't help but ask questions.
"Did something happen during Thursday's Guardian class? You seemed a little distracted during the game."
His intuition was that Lupin must have said something that made Harry seem so anxious today.
Unexpectedly, his caring words hit the nail on the head for Harry's anxious heart.
Draco's greeting flowed through Harry's heart like a warm current. He felt his lips trembling slightly and some emotions flowing.
He looked up at Draco and blurted out.
"I shouldn't have rushed off to find Petillo on my own."
"I shouldn't be mad at you. I'm sorry."
Draco blushed at the sudden apology.
"It's okay. You weren't the only one who got angry that day. I was also... also..."
Seeing Draco's helpless look, Harry couldn't help but laugh.
Even though she rolled her eyes at me, I was still happier that the misunderstanding was resolved.
It was a while before Harry told Draco what had happened during Thursday's Guardianship class.
?This was the last class, so Harry decided to take the opportunity to ask questions.
About the authenticity of what he saw as Pedrillo on the Marauder's Map.
He also informed Lupin that he had learned that he, his father, Black and Pettigrew had made the map together.
There was a gleam in Lupin's eyes, and he seemed a little happy.
"You don't have to tell me how you know that."
This relieved Harry, although he felt that Lupin might have guessed the truth.
"So... if the Marauder's Map..."
"If the Marauder's Map really shows Petillo's name, then he must still be alive and nearby."
"This means that Black is likely innocent."
Then, a trace of pain flashed across Lupin's face, but he was unwilling to tell Harry the reason.
"But... Professor, I saw this name on a map,"
"I also ran to the spot according to the map to look for him, but I didn't see anyone..."
"Have you seen Petillo's name? And did you take the initiative to go find him?"
After hearing what Harry said, the smile in Lupin's eyes disappeared and his expression became stern.
"Yes... yes, Professor, but that's because..."
"Harry, I'm very, very disappointed."
"Since you know that we made the map, have you ever thought that whether it is Blake or Petillo,
"They might try to use the map to lure you off campus?"
The seriousness on Lupin's face made Harry a little flustered, and what made Harry even more embarrassed was his next words.
"You and James are a lot like each other. You both don't like to follow school rules. There's nothing wrong with that."
"But James and Lily sacrificed their lives to protect you."
"You shouldn't gamble their sacrifice on a confrontation with Blake or Petillo."
"Think about what James and Lily would think?"
This was indeed a question that Harry had not thought about several times when he acted impulsively.
And the fact that such criticism came from his father's good friend during his school days made him even more uncomfortable.
He left Lupin's office just like that, and lost the Quidditch Cup.
-
"Lupin doesn't even talk like a professor now."
After listening to Harry's retelling, Draco blamed him in unison, obviously unhappy with Lupin's harshness towards Harry.
"But he does have a point."
"Don't pay attention to him. Black hasn't made any movement for so long, maybe Pettigrew has already been caught by him."
Draco said casually, but he was thinking about something else.
With Severus's assurance, Draco felt much more at ease.
I no longer care whether Blake is innocent.
But after all, this matter was related to Harry's parents' past, and he knew that he would never be able to let it go as easily as he did.
After thinking for a moment, perhaps the best thing to do right now is to temporarily divert Harry's attention.
He quickly glanced around, confirmed that there was no one around, gritted his teeth, and made a decision that he would immediately regret.
He put on the hood of his cloak and pulled the brim down over his eyes.
He tucked his hands into his robe sleeves and purred softly in front of Harry.
"Draco…what are you doing?"
Harry looked at himself with a speechless expression.
"I dressed up as a Dementor to scare you. I haven't forgotten your evil deeds in Hogsmeade."
He said this with a tough mouth, suppressing the shame in his heart.
Because he was too embarrassed, he refused to open the brim of his hat for fear of seeing Harry's expression.
But when Harry laughed, he was amazed at his own stupidity.
Still happy to have relieved Harry's depression.
He felt Harry reach out and try to pull back the front of his hood, and he quickly grabbed hold of it with both hands.
After struggling with Harry for a while, he finally gave up, but he said something that shocked him even more.
"Draco, thank you. I'm really happy to be with you like this."
Draco's hand, which was holding the brim of his hat, slid down and buried his cheeks.
The shy warmth on her face was transmitted to her palm. She spoke in a muffled voice.
"Don't...don't get me wrong! I really just want revenge."

"Sweet skirt: Ba Liu Wu Yi Qi Er Jiu Qi Ba"
During the exam season, everyone is very busy.
After receiving his mother's letter, Draco quickly replied that he had already made a plan.
Blake still didn't move. It seemed that apart from the matter of the winged beast,
This semester, which seemed to be full of ups and downs, was actually quite dull.
After Draco finished the Defense Against the Dark Arts exam with great performance in the morning, his semester came to an end.
Lupin arranged a pass test, allowing the students of Hogwarts to indulge in mock duels.
According to Lupin, Draco was the second fastest person to complete the exam in the entire year.
Number one, of course, is her nemesis, Harry Potter.
This gave Draco the whole afternoon to prepare for the note he had received that morning -
Harry and Ron insisted on accompanying Hagrid. Persuasion was useless. The cloak would be used. They might not be able to get away in time.
I silently lamented Granger's ineffectiveness and returned to my dorm to prepare until the evening.
He stepped out of the common room and wanted to go and confirm the secret path that Harry had taken him through in his memory.
Just as he was about to hide in the secret door, he was blocked by the Phoenix who had saved him last year.
Fawkes winked at Draco, signaling him to follow it and move forward along a new secret passage.
Arriving at the circular office that he entered with his father and Severus after escaping the Chamber of Secrets with Harry in his second year.
After Draco stepped through the door, Fawkes flew to the branch next to the desk and chirped happily a few times.
It seemed like the reward mission had been accomplished and Dumbledore was waiting for him.
Seeing the old headmaster staring at him with interest, Draco also became curious.
Why do you invite yourself to be alone?
"Good night, Draco."
"Good night, Professor."
Dumbledore stood up with a somewhat amused look on his face.
"I'm sorry to have to call you in before dinner."
"I'm on my way to the Great Hall for dinner. Would you mind walking a little way with me?"
Draco hesitated.
Did the principal call her here just for this kind of thing? She had more important tasks to deal with.
"Don't worry, Draco."
"I have always felt that the mystery of time may be far more difficult than the most abstruse magic."
"Sometimes, taking a more roundabout approach can help you achieve your goals faster, right?"
"Fan fiction writers earn very little, so I hope you can send me some valuable gifts. Even free gifts are great for the sake of love (you can watch three ads if you watch one).
Latest plan: If the number of readers exceeds 1000 within a week, we will update one more article or one more extra chapter!!!" (Because the volume yesterday was too "large" and the reading volume reached an astonishing 54% of yesterday, the author was too "happy" and decided to give up for a while and will not reply for the time being!)
