if i am not me

Chapter 169

Leonardo Porter has been very busy and helpless in the past six months.

Of course, this is not a complaint, in fact he feels very fulfilled and enjoys it.But sometimes he can't help but wonder, is it because he said too many things that he has "grown up" back then, that caused him, who was only 13 years old, to be an "adult" in the past six months? addiction.

After all, there are some things that parents will not entrust their children to do, or in other words, they will not mention them to their children at all.

But his family is an exception, a big exception.

Starting with Lily and James, whether it's Sirius, Remus or Sev, seems to think he's good enough to touch on something.As a result, since he left Hogwarts, he has lived in pain and happiness.

This is their consistent style, pampering, but not spoiling.

Showing the strong muscles on his arms to the five people present, Leo said with a complicated expression, "I always thought that I would not have this thing until I was 16 years old."

The boys in the Potter family have always been thin and developed late, so Leo never expected his body to grow up like a balloon like his cousin Dali. Mouth started at 16 years old.

But obviously the plan couldn't keep up with the changes.

The height that was approaching Harry's and a half-thicker figure, as well as the less childish voice, made the group of people silent for a long while, and finally Hermione spoke first, "How did you get there in the first place?" so suddenly?"

Leo was taken home suddenly not long after Dumbledore left Hogwarts.They naturally thought it was because Leo's father was James Potter.In any case, it is obvious to all that Fudge and Potter are at odds with each other, and Umbridge is Fudge's proud subordinate, and now he also serves as the headmaster of Hogwarts. In order to protect their son, the Potters put him pick up.

But on the other hand, they feel that the truth does not seem to be what they imagined.It shouldn't be that simple.

Hermione's question didn't require Leo to avoid anything, so he spread his hands and said directly, "I went to the Order of the Phoenix."

Order of the Phoenix!

"Why did you go to the Order of the Phoenix?" Hermione asked in surprise. You must know that although they all know the existence of the Order of the Phoenix, judging from Neville's narration, that place is not something that anyone can go to. .

"Ah, well, at the beginning it was because the old toad became the headmaster. Sirius and Sev were worried that I would stay at Hogwarts, so they simply took me back." Leo put his hand back to its original position. By the way, he pulled back his rolled-up sleeves, but this action made him not notice that Harry and the others couldn't help shaking when they heard the word "Sev".

Seaver...

Not the one they thought of?

"In the end, they were all so busy that even my mother was so busy that she almost lived in St. Mungo's. I would occasionally be thrown into the Order of the Phoenix when no one was looking after me. Anyway, I was in charge of the food there." Speaking of this , Leo curled his lips, as if thinking of something dissatisfied, "It's boring there, it's really boring, I can't even find anyone who can chat with me, the only one who can talk is... so I just plan to communicate more with those people who came to the 'Society'..."

Harry and the others believed that what Leo did would definitely not be as calm as he said, it was just pure communication.

really!

"But those people were so petty, and I didn't do anything, and they all got angry. Sev also punished me for it."

"Sev" angry?Ah, this seems to be the normal state that "Sev" should have.

"I don't know why, my dad suddenly came up with inspiration after he saw it, and said that he just took this opportunity to let me exercise well. So..." After finishing speaking, he rolled up his sleeves again to show off his muscles, "I have been working out for half a year. I’ve been stationed in the Order of the Phoenix, and I’ve had an exceptionally wonderful time.”

It turned out to be self-inflicted!

Silently complaining in their hearts, Harry, Draco, Hermione, including Ron, immediately deleted the imaginary things in their minds decisively after listening to Leo's explanation.Conspiracy theories really apply now and then!

"You've worked hard..." said insincerely, Draco adjusted the expression on his face. "Now for the serious stuff, Neville..."

Neville had been in a daze since they came in, and didn't speak a word except for the initial greeting.He would hear Draco calling him, and he was stunned for a few seconds before reacting.

"Ah, I'm sorry." Blinking, Neville immediately cheered up and looked at Draco, "What did you ask me just now?"

Drake didn't mind Neville's distraction, and said with a slight smile, "It's nothing, I just want to chat with you about the past few days."

Although Drake said he was just chatting casually, how could Neville know that he was just asking himself some things in a disguised form so that it was inconvenient to say.After thinking about the past few days, there is really nothing to avoid, so I picked out the key points and talked about it.

Harry and Drake looked at each other indiscriminately while listening to Neville recounting the latest information about Voldemort that the Order of the Phoenix had obtained.

Judging from the information Neville got, if he had nothing to hide, it meant that he was still in a relatively marginal position.Even though, he is "The Boy Who Lived".

But this is not difficult to understand.In any case, no matter how powerful Neville was, he was still just a child in the eyes of grown-ups.It's just that this child's status is a little special, but it won't have too much impact on the overall situation.

There may only be two or three people who really understand the role played by Neville.

"By the way. About Voldemort, do you... remember Riddle's diary in the second grade?"

Suddenly, Neville posed a question to a few of his friends, successfully drawing the attention of Harry and Drake.

Could it be that what Neville wanted to say was...?

"I met Dumbledore yesterday, and he said something to me." Neville frowned, as if he was thinking about something.

"Is it related to that diary?" Hermione was always the first one in this small group to ask.

Neville nodded.

"Remember what I told you about what happened when 'he' came back last year?" Thinking of what happened in the Triwizard Tournament last year, Neville frowned even more, but he didn't After falling silent, "I told you at the time that Voldemort after waking up looks exactly like Riddle."

"At first, like you, I thought it was because he was Voldemort. But yesterday Dumbledore told me a hypothesis. He said, if it is really based on the resurrection spell that Voldemort used, then after the resurrection Voldemort, the age should be the same as the night he disappeared, that is, ten years ago. But the Voldemort we see now looks only 17 years old. So Dumbledore told me a bold hypothesis, that That is, the current Voldemort, perhaps...his resurrection is not complete."

incomplete?

What does it mean?

Neville's words made the eyes of five people present widen involuntarily, including Harry and Drake.

"Yes, it's incomplete. When Dumbledore said this, he mentioned the same thing as me, and that's the 'Horcrux'."Neville could understand the surprise of his friends, after all, that's how he came here.

"Horcrux?" Hermione finally found her voice, but it was full of deep doubts.

Neville glanced at Ron and the other three who were also full of doubts, pursed his lips and said, "It's an extremely... evil thing." As he spoke, as if recalling something, Neville's eyes A look of disgust flashed across.

But this didn't stop him from explaining to his friends what a Horcrux was.

In the following time, Neville made full use of his memory and began to tell what he knew about Horcruxes.Not much actually, because Dumbledore had told him so much, and he was just telling the truth.

Ron and Hermione obviously couldn't believe there were such evil spells in the world, worse than Avada Kedavra.Harry and Drake were relatively better, but in a place where no one noticed, Drake's hand touched Harry's fist that he didn't know when to clenched.

Because at the same time, they thought of the parchment that hadn't been sent out in time, and on that parchment, what was written was what was left, a few things that might become Horcruxes.

After Neville uttered the last syllable, none of them spoke again.They need time to digest the information they just received.After a long time, Harry asked quietly, "Neville, about the Horcrux, is it alright if you tell us?"

Harry would understand if he just told Ron and Hermione.But now, there are more than the three of them sitting here.When Dumbledore told him about the Horcrux, he said that this secret could only be opened to Ron and Hermione.

"Ah, Dumbledore said that it's okay to tell you a few, of course, it's only limited to a few of you." Neville was well prepared for Harry's question, because after listening to Dumbledore's words, his second question The problem is this.

Unexpectedly, not only Harry, but also Drake was stunned by his answer.

Dumbledore actually agreed to disclose such important information to them...

What does this represent?
