Chapter 197 196 Different Little Phineas

How can this be?

This was the only thought in her little mind at this time, because if it was really what she thought, then this matter would be another situation,

The change of expression on her face, as well as the hint of incredulity, were captured vividly by Feeney.

He smiled and said,

"It seems that our little Hermione has thought of it. Yes, that's what she has thought of. As for what it is, don't say it. Let them think for themselves. What I want to tell you is that, like Snape, The professors who have taught at Hogwarts for at least ten years are very trusted by Dumbledore. They will not antagonize Dumbledore because of some short-sighted ideas. Therefore, your previous thoughts are completely a joke."

Harry's eyes lit up, he looked at Finny and asked,

"Since Dumbledore is guarding against someone, does that mean that this person is from outside the school, or is a new professor at Hogwarts?"

Feeney was very satisfied with Harry from the bottom of his heart. He was worthy of being the son of the world and the protagonist of this story.

As a talented little wizard who can enter four houses, although Harry's Gryffindor characteristics developed faster because he was in Gryffindor, his characteristics in other houses did not disappear, but he also experienced some growth. ,

It's really nice to realize the most obvious clue in this matter so quickly.

You know, this clue is indeed obvious, but if you don't think of it, you will really ignore it.

Feeney nodded and said,

"Today, all the professors at Hogwarts have taught here for many years. However, there is one exception, and that is the Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts, Professor Quirrell."

Harry looked at Finny doubtfully and said,

"You mean Professor Quirrell? How is this possible? He..."

Feeney smiled and said,

"You want to say that he is timid and stumbling?"

Harry and the others nodded in unison,

Finny laughed and said,

"You all underestimate him too much. You know, he was once a top student in Ravenclaw, one of the top students in his class, and he taught Muggle Studies at Hogwarts a year ago. At that time, I never stuttered or was as timid as I am now,"

"Not to mention, a year ago he was a very brave person who left Hogwarts to take risks to increase his experience and prepare himself to become the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor this year. How can such a person behave like this now?"

Neville looked at Finny doubtfully.

"In this case, why did Professor Dumbledore and the others..."

Feeney smiled and said,

"This is the reason for the question I asked before. I think most professors have noticed Quirrell's question, but they are waiting."

"wait?"

Harry looked at his nominal uncle in confusion.

But Feeney shook his head and said nothing. He said hello to Hagrid and left the hut towards the castle.

Ron looked at Finny's back and curled his lips in disgust. He really hated this Slytherin who had a good relationship with his two brothers. He was second only to Percy. Hate,

"Harry, you don't really believe him, do you? You know, Snape is his dean, and he is Slytherin..."

Hermione looked at Ron and frowned. Why hadn't she noticed before that this person who was a little embarrassed on the train but was still okay would be like this?

Rolling her eyes, she walked out of the hut and chased Finny. She had many questions to ask Finny, about the wizarding world, about Dumbledore, and her most emotional questions about magic.

Neville let out a sigh of relief. He was really afraid of Finny, not only because of his parents, but also because he was the only one in the cabin who knew that Finny was a terrible figure in the magical world. The existence of true appearance,

Hagrid heard Ron's words and said,

"Finney is different from those bad guys in Slytherin. He is trustworthy,"

Neville looked at Ron and Harry and said hesitantly,

"Ron, really don't provoke him. Provoking him is a terrible thing,"

Harry looked at Neville in confusion. In his impression, Finny had always been a very good brother, although he always wanted to call him uncle.

Ron was also a little puzzled, not to mention Hagrid, who had a low IQ.

Neville hesitated for a moment before speaking,

"I've never told you about my parents,"

Harry nodded. This was true. They all knew that Neville was a pure-blood wizard of the Longbottom family. They usually only heard about his grandmother, but never about his parents.

Neville sighed, clenched his hands as if trying to use all his strength, and said,

"My parents are Frank Longbottom and Alice Longbottom,"

When he heard these two names, Hagrid screamed in surprise. Obviously he knew these two people, and he really didn't expect that Neville would be their child. This also made him understand that Finny had What happened to the so-called apology?

Neville did not stop speaking because of the scream, but tried his best to use a very calm tone, saying that his parents were tortured by Bellatrix Lestrange until they could only go insane. , describing how he could only live in St. Mungo's Hospital of Witchcraft and Wizardry all year round,

Harry looked at Neville in confusion.

"What does this have to do with Feeney?"

Neville took a deep breath and said,

"Bellatrix Slatrange, formerly known as Bellatrix Black, is Finny's cousin,"

This last sentence made Neville, who had already exhausted all his strength, fall to the ground with some strength.

Ron said a little unnaturally,

"Even if it's his cousin, she's still locked up in Azkaban. What's there to be afraid of?"

Neville looked at Ron angrily and said,

"There is no such thing as a simple existence in the Black family! Although Feeney didn't do anything to our family, you all know who is the captain of the Slytherin Quidditch team, right?"

Harry nodded and said,

"You know, Marcus Flint, that troll guy,"

Neville said,

"He provoked Feeney last year, and then the Flint family almost disappeared from the wizarding world,"

Ron opened his mouth in shock and looked at Neville in disbelief.

"Are you kidding? I know, Finny is indeed very strong, but he is just a little wizard,"

Hagrid spoke at this time,

"This matter is true. I also know it. In other words, most people in the magic world know it. Ron, you don't know it. Maybe it's because Arthur and Molly didn't tell you."
