262 Love, Phoenix, Death
The work of saving the phoenix chicks is still in full swing. For convenience, Gaspard even moved the magic tent here.
However, for the sake of caution, he would still bring the magic tent back to the dormitory every time he left, without any trouble at all.
"This secret passage is much safer than the dormitory - especially when working." Gespard explained.
But compared to the others, Karan's enthusiasm was much less.
Because he believes that the magic of "love" is real.
And Dumbledore once said to Newt: "[Anyone from the Dumbledore family who is in urgent need, the Phoenix will come.]"
This apparently involves their key to taming the Phoenix.
But how could such a proud magical animal be easily tamed?
It's like controlling the breath of a poisonous leopard at all times - it's incredible.
Unless it is [love], this is possible.
Karan has determined this fact - although there are not many clues, he still believes that this is the most feasible method.
After all, even the Phoenix "Spark" is the mascot of the Mottola Macaws. It would be impossible to do this without love, and Spark will leave without hesitation.
Because it is a phoenix, the most proud and loyal phoenix.
But this conjecture only made Karan feel more headache.
If anyone could be the owner of this chick, it must be Meadows, because it was she who personally handed the chick to Steve.
But after that, she didn't contact anyone again.
Karan originally thought that this might be related to the ancient tomb in the photo, but after hearing that Bellatrix was also in Egypt, this gave Meadows more reasons to stay there.
People like Meadows will never let go of this opportunity for revenge.
She also won't contact anyone.
Because it only makes her weak - in the face of death.
It was also for this reason that Karan never contacted her.
He had no intention of handing over the Elder Wand just like this. Any connection with the Elder Wand was what he had been trying to avoid, otherwise Mr. Ollivander's memory would be erased in vain.
But he didn't intend to provoke Meadows' determination over some "little things."
Because it's not important and it's not necessary.
In addition, Karan is also hiding a secret.
This time, Meadows had no intention of coming back alive.
This was something only he and Meadows knew. Even Dumbledore had been successfully concealed by her. Otherwise, the principal would never have let Meadows die for no reason.
But Meadows really has no intention of coming back alive - unless, as she says, she finds a way around the curse of her Defense Against the Dark Arts position.
But if she really died in Egypt, what would become of this phoenix chick?
Did he just keep sleeping?
Or will it be the first dead phoenix they witness...
"Karan, Karan!"
Lily's shouting made Karan gradually come to his senses, and he saw that the other party was hurriedly packing his backpack.
"Hurry up, the next class is about to start! Why did you get distracted again and didn't remind us?"
Karan shook his head and took a look at the class schedule. The next class was Defense Against the Dark Arts, and the two houses they shared were Gryffindor and Hufflepuff.
Steve had already hurriedly packed Karan's backpack. He conveniently put away the book "Advanced Transfiguration" on Karan's lap and asked casually: "Why are you always reading this book recently? What are you planning to do again?”
Gaspard asked with interest: "Oh? Is it related to the magic coin?"
Karan opened his mouth, but before he could deal with it, Snape suddenly grabbed him silently.
After a few people rushed to class, he would be the student left alone in the potion preparation room.
The two walked to the corner of the room, and Snape asked in a low voice with an expressionless face: "Are you really planning to let me stay here alone?"
"Ah, that's right." Karan said matter-of-factly: "Remember to complete the remaining steps of preparing the potion and then clean it up. This shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"
He patted Snape's shoulder twice in a gesture of encouragement.
But before he could take a few steps, Snape forcefully pulled him back.
"Are you sure?" Snape asked.
Karan finally noticed something was wrong with his tone, and his eyes kept glancing at Steve's suitcase.
Karan blinked, and then he thought that in addition to Snape, the Phoenix fledglings would also stay here, but this was obviously not the reason Snape repeatedly emphasized.
"What's wrong with Wolf? It's so beautiful." Karan asked in disbelief: "You don't like it, right?"
Snape's cheeks twitched silently.
It seems that Karan guessed correctly, he felt great resistance to being alone with a moon wolf.
"Stop joking!" Karan didn't give him a chance to refuse: "Wolf will not hurt you, nor will he infect you into a werewolf."
"Just think of it as adapting in advance."
After leaving an inexplicable last word, Karan hurried away, leaving Snape still frowning and staring at his back.
After Regulus was killed, there were not many changes to the Defense Against the Dark Arts classes, and there was no sudden addition of a dueling class.
This may be because Meadows has already taught them dueling lessons.
However, the Prewett brothers expressed great regret for the lack of theatrical programs before and made a request to perform at the Christmas dinner again.
Callan didn't know whether Dumbledore agreed with this decision, but judging from the fact that he was not notified, the result did not seem so "pleasant".
So the Prewett professors had no choice but to express their love for drama in their daily courses, and their favorite actors were always favored.
"Very good. The expression should be more fierce and show the thirst for blood. When Fabian and I arrived at the village, this hidden vampire had not had a meal for several days!"
Gideon took the trouble to guide Karan's acting skills.
In order to end the demonstration as soon as possible, in front of everyone, Karan had to open his mouth wider.
He pretended not to hear Lily's snickering and rushed towards Professor Gideon, but was tripped and fell to the ground.
"Very good, then I pointed the wand at the vampire, but the other party's reaction was much faster than I expected. He also took out the wand and quickly cast the Iron Armor Curse!"
Gideon winked at Karan, and Fabian on the side was still encouraging: "Come on, Karan! Don't let me down!"
Karan pretended to cast the Iron Armor Curse several times, but never succeeded.
The students below suddenly burst into boos.
"Stop pretending!"
"Yes, I was present at the party that day!"
Karan pretended to be embarrassed and struggled, and even a few drops of sweat dropped from his forehead.
Lily covered her mouth hard to prevent others from seeing that she was snickering.
In order to continue to keep a low profile, Karan has really worked hard enough.
Remus frowned as he watched this scene, and he asked James in a low voice: "Which thing is real? You? Or him?"
"You'll know when you see it with your own eyes." James also whispered: "This guy is simply a freak. I really don't know what he is trying to hide."
Sirius didn't say anything. He was still worried about Regulus and had spoken less recently.
Instead, Peter nodded vigorously.
"I've seen it with my own eyes." He said tremblingly.
Karan, who pretended to be weak, could not arouse his ridicule, but only made him feel more frightened.
"Don't be fooled by his appearance!" He was so nervous that his voice became much louder.
Fortunately no one noticed him.
Because after many failed attempts, Karan finally succeeded in casting the spell.
"Armor protection!"
