A broken Hogwarts

Chapter 22 The Brain Circuit of the Savior

The big dog named Tooth rested its head on Harry's lap, and its saliva soaked a lot of his robes. Its dark eyes were squinting at Owen, looking very timid, but Eager to try again.

Owen took a quill to write and draw in his notebook, and occasionally raised his head to glance at the dog. He didn't need to learn Legilimency, he could guarantee that the dog wanted to pounce on him.It seems that this guy's courage has grown a lot when he is by the master's side.

Remembering that there was still Mrs. Norris' unfinished food stuffed in his pocket, Owen turned it out.The food was carefully packed by him in plastic paper, so that no drop of oil would seep out.

He unpacked the paper bag and threw it on the ground. The big dog smelled it, and swallowed it in three or two bites. Then it squatted on the ground, sticking out its tongue and flicking its tail, fanning the air so loudly.

"Tsk, good boy, let's go play." Owen raised his hand and patted it on the head, with a lazy smile on his face, pointing his finger at Harry.

Then Harry, who was talking vigorously to Hagrid, was thrown to the ground.

"Okay, Fangya, don't make trouble." Harry got up and straightened his glasses that were tilted to the side, and continued chatting with Hagrid.

"...In short, the professors of all subjects are very friendly to me, and so is the dean, although he is serious...I have also met many friends in the college..."

"Oh, I know, I know..." Hagrid looked at Harry with tears in his eyes again, as if he was looking at a poor little kid who was in trouble but forced a smile on his relatives and friends, "Are you sure It's suffering, that academy...how can you stay?"

"I think the Sorting Hat must be old and confused, Slytherin? How dare it think? Your father and your mother are excellent wizards in Gryffindor. When I first saw you, I knew you were with you." Dad is exactly the same, both in appearance and personality, of course, eyes like your mother..."

"You are such a good boy, you must be wronged when you get there, and Dumbledore doesn't know what to do..." Having said this, Hagrid blew his nose loudly again.

Owen looked up at him, too lazy to speak.Anyway, after Voldemort and his followers came out of Slytherin, Hagrid had a little psychological shadow on this college.

"Actually, I haven't been wronged. On the contrary, I'm still... popular." Harry sighed helplessly, "Although there are a small group of people who don't want to have anything to do with me, I guarantee that it's just a group of people. Small group of people, they are far away from me."

"It's very popular." Owen added with a smile, and glanced at Harry with a smile in his eyes. "After all, Harry is a potential stock in the future. Who wouldn't want to establish a good relationship with him in advance?"

"Owen, can you stop talking like that?" As soon as Harry mentioned this, he thought of the newspapers that edited him, and the soles of his feet almost cramped in embarrassment. "Hagrid, don't believe what the newspaper says, if you mind me..."

"No, no, I don't mind at all which house you're in...if that's your choice." Hagrid cast a quick glance out of the corner of his eye at the stack of newspapers lying under the teakettle warmer.

"Honestly, I didn't even know you were abused in that Muggle house. I should have gone to see you. I should have turned all three of them into big fat pigs... No wonder you wanted revenge They, but don't implicate innocent people, don't get carried away, Harry, if..."

"Hagrid, I haven't been abused! Although they really don't like me, they didn't starve me." Harry pulled out the stack of newspapers, and it turned out that they were all about himself, "Enter Slytherin I didn't choose it, it was the Sorting Hat who told me that I would be suitable there, although I don't know where I would be suitable..." He really felt out of place, in various ways.

"Also, I don't think revenge at all, and I don't dislike Muggles! If you'd rather believe the bloody papers... oh, and the fact that I'm actually a dark wizard..."

"No no no, how could it be, you are the hero who defeated You-Know-Who!" Hagrid said loudly, "It must be the Sorting Hat's own fault, even though it keeps saying that it has never made a mistake in sorting for thousands of years, But it doesn't mean it won't be confused, maybe it was confused by something..."

"Wait, what can the Sorting Hat be confused with?" Harry's eyes lit up, and his thinking became clearer than ever. "Like magic or something? I mean, if someone wants me to enter a certain house..."

"I don't know, nothing happened to the Sorting Hat before..." Hagrid said hesitantly, "and it has been kept in the headmaster's office. It is impossible for anyone to hide it from Dumbledore."

"But Dumbledore won't be in the headmaster's office forever, right? On the day of the sorting ceremony, it was taken out of the headmaster's office, and there was a period of time when it was easy to be tampered with..." Harry felt his thoughts brighten.Yes, someone must be playing some kind of conspiracy!
Owen, who had always been a listener with great interest, opened his mouth, stunned for the first time.What kind of strange brain circuit is this?Is the little mind of the savior full of question marks?
Sure enough, the mind of the savior is not going to take the usual path?Owen quickly took a sip of tea to suppress his shock.

"I don't know." Hagrid rubbed his hands suspiciously, "The Sorting Hat can't be bribed. But if a wizard is smart enough, he might be able to use the Confusion Charm to affect it... although it belongs to Gryffindor Relics are very powerful magic items, but after all they are only wizards' creations."

"That makes sense! No wonder I've always felt so out of place!" Harry stood up abruptly, almost throwing Fang out of his lap.

These days, Harry searched a lot of information, met many students from the same college, and learned some common sense of the wizarding world from others.But no matter how he thought about it, he didn't find that he had the characteristics suitable for Slytherin. This made him wonder if he really had any hidden talents in him.

But if the Sorting Hat has been tampered with, then everything will be clear.

Seeing Hagrid's still skeptical expression, Harry turned his gaze to Owen who had a strange expression aside.Thinking that he has always been extremely smart and has novel and pertinent insights into many things, he asked, "Owen, what do you think of this matter?"

Owen touched the corner of his lips with his fingers, with an interesting smile on his face.He glanced at Harry with his clear and slightly smiling black eyes, lightly tapped the table with his left index finger, and said in a soothing and clear tone:

"Well, the person who knows you best is yourself. If you really think that you should not belong to Slytherin, and that someone has tampered with the Sorting Hat, you might as well think about the purpose and identity of that person first. "

The smile on the corner of Owen's mouth deepened a little, and he began to analyze seriously: "I want to get close to you and guide you into a dark wizard who hates Muggles? But generally speaking, as long as you don't change yourself, the influence of the academy will be on you." It is very small, so this possibility is unlikely. Is it to protect you? It is possible but there is no need to send you to a college that is not suitable for you."

"Then, that person is more likely to target you. You are assigned to Slytherin House because it will be easier to observe and get in touch with you? Then you have to consider the relationship between this person and this house. "

Speaking of this, Owen paused. According to this explanation, Professor Snape might have to bear the blame.

He smiled and shook his head, and continued: "Of course, there is another possibility, such as..." He pointed to the newspaper in Harry's hand, "Separate the relationship between you and Dumbledore, after all, many people speculate that you will be with Dumbledore." Dumbledore turned against each other or something, even if it didn't go to this point, they might be alienated from each other. Without Dumbledore's protection, the enemy can deal with you more easily."

"As for that person's identity, you need to guess it yourself. For example, your enemy? Or..."

"Voldemort!" Harry jumped up like a spring on his feet.

Hearing this name, Hagrid's huge body flinched: "Don't... don't say this name..."

"Hagrid, you said that he couldn't die, didn't you? Maybe Voldemort is nearby, planning revenge, planning a comeback..." Harry was immersed in his own thoughts, and he couldn't hear what Hagrid was saying. what.

"No, maybe it's just some hidden follower of his trying to get back at you or something..." said Hagrid.

"Harry, listen! I'll go and tell Dumbledore. If someone does this, you must be careful!" Hagrid began to believe it, and he told Harry with a serious face.

Harry also nodded solemnly, feeling that he was in a very dangerous situation.

Owen clenched his fist with his right hand, blocked his lips and coughed lightly, almost laughing uncontrollably.
