Chapter 109 Snape: I Always Feel Like You Are Trying to Trick Me
"I prefer Harry to Collins."
Dumbledore knew the shining points of Harry, which Andy did not have.
Andy was indeed very capable, not only in magic, but also in other aspects.
However, some qualities could not be compensated by talent.
Snape was not interested in these things. He said, "What do you want to do? Find Collins and give him a lecture?"
Dumbledore shook his head.
Andy had put the book back. What's the point of preaching?
People understand the truth, but they just don't change.
"That child has become interested in the dark arts."
Despite this, Dumbledore was not too worried. "Next, you have to deal with Voldemort. Leave Collins to me!"
"What are you going to do?" Snape was really curious. After all these years, it was the first time he saw Dumbledore care so much about a little wizard.
"Do you know Collins' wand?"
Dumbledore asked himself and answered: "I asked Mr. Ollivander, pine wood, phoenix tail feathers. Represents longevity and independence."
Snape: "..."
He never thought that Dumbledore would care about such small details.
However...longevity and independence...
Seeing Snape's expression, Dumbledore sighed: "Yes! Immortality and power, and the mentality of not taking others seriously."
This is exactly the same as Voldemort.
The only difference between the two is ambition.
Snape can see that Andy has no idea of reforming the magic world. It's not that he can't see the shortcomings of the current magic world, but he doesn't care at all.
Because of this, even if Andy is obsessed with black magic, he will only become a black wizard at most in the future.
The difference between the black wizard and the Dark Lord is one word, but the influence caused is very different.
If Voldemort is just a simple black wizard, he is not that scary.
"When Voldemort was in school, he would hide his ambitions and behaviors, but Collins... he never cared about these."
"But fortunately, Collins at least knows what love is. He cares about his family and his girlfriend..."
Speaking of this, Dumbledore seemed to suddenly realize that he had said too much, "When people get old, they tend to be long-winded."
Snape glanced at Dumbledore. He always felt that Dumbledore was tricking him.
Girlfriends are the most annoying.
...
Since Quirrell's matter was resolved, Hogwarts has finally returned to peace. Andy finally breathed a sigh of relief, no longer having to worry all day, fearing that Quirrell would retaliate against him.
Life in Hogwarts is actually very boring.
When I was in school in my previous life, at least I had game consoles to play and TV to watch. The entertainment activities in the magic world are quite monotonous, and the only activity in school is Quidditch.
No wonder the little wizards like to spread gossip.
It's just idleness.
Hermione's work went smoothly. Although she and Zhang Qiu were one grade apart, they could become (superficial) besties just by talking.
Hermione also looked up a lot of information about the Chinese magic world.
Hermione's progress was smooth, so Cedric and Andy contacted each other more frequently.
Andy also continued to exchange magic and tested Cedric's magic level.
To be honest, Andy was a little disappointed.
In the third grade, Cedric's strength was indeed outstanding, but in Andy's opinion, Cedric's future level would not even be comparable to Snape.
This was not caused by talent.
Snape lived in a war-torn era, while Cedric lived in a peaceful era. The two had different pursuits of magic and different purposes for learning magic.
Andy even felt that if they really fought, Cedric might not be his opponent.
Moreover, Cedric had a free and easy personality and a sense of justice, which was not the same type as himself.
After discovering this, Andy immediately gave up the idea of making close friends with Cedric.
It's really hard to find a like-minded partner in Hogwarts.
Well... unless it's Slytherin!
Andy sometimes wonders whether he should win over a few Slytherin students.
For example... Malfoy.
Throughout the entire Hogwarts, only Slytherin is a little bit like him.
It's just that their talent is too poor!
I don't know if it's because of inbreeding, there are really many idiots in Slytherin.
Fortunately, Andy didn't gain nothing.
As long as he can trick Zhang Qiu into returning to China and help Andy bring some private goods from the Chinese magic world, it will be a big profit for Andy.
"Andy, your birthday is April 16th, right?"
In the corridor of the castle, Cedric said while lending Andy his sorted notes.
"Have you already started to learn third-grade magic by yourself? That's amazing!"
Cedric exclaimed: "When I was your age, I never thought about preparing for senior courses."
When they were communicating about magic before, Cedric found that Andy had already mastered second-grade magic.
Not only that, Andy also taught himself a lot of magic that was not taught in school in the library.
No wonder everyone said Andy was obsessed with magic.
"It's always good to learn more magic."
Andy took Cedric's notes, "Thanks, I'll give it back to you after I copy it."
"You don't want to learn twelve courses like Percy Weasley?" Cedric said exaggeratedly.
"of course not!"
Andy smiled and said, "I will only study things that interest me."
"You're welcome. By the way, are you planning to hold a birthday party? Use that secret passage." Cedric said shyly.
Andy glanced at Cedric and said, "I don't know Qiu very well. Even if there is a birthday party, I won't invite her."
Cedric was troubled.
He had already done his homework and read a lot of books on topics about China, Quidditch, and even humor.
He believes that as long as he is given a chance, he can become friends with Zhang Qiu.
But this opportunity happens to be the most difficult.
Unless you wait until next year.
If Zhang Qiu joins the Ravenclaw team, he can wait until the game is over and take the opportunity to chat with Zhang Qiu.
But it was too long.
"You can just write her a love letter. I can ask Hermione to hand it over to Qiu for you." Andy suggested.
"No, no!"
Cedric waved his hands repeatedly, "No, I'd better find another chance!"
"correct!"
Andy suddenly looked at Cedric with great interest, "Are you interested in giving me a try?"
"After learning magic for so long, I have never actually fought with anyone."
Cedric looked strange, "You and me?"
"Don't you want to try it?" Andy asked bewilderedly.
Cedric was really moved.
He is already in his third year, but when it comes to fighting against others, he really has no experience in this area.
