Next, everyone was divided into two groups by Snape. In order to prevent Hermione from helping Harry, Snape put Hermione far away in the group with Aylwin.
Aylwin's deskmate, Mirk Corner, who was also a Ravenclaw student, went to join Hermione's deskmate, Lavender Brown.
Aylwin looked at the girl in front of him. Her messy hairstyle couldn't cover her delicate face, and her slightly discordant front teeth ruined her overall beauty.
However, it also made the girl look even cuter.
Yes, she was a good loli.
Aylwin nodded to Hermione in a friendly manner, then lowered his head and began to process the ingredients in his hand.
Hermione, on the other hand, seemed to want to say something but hesitated. But in the end, she still spoke.
"Aylwin Gaunt, did you go to Garden Elementary School?”
Aylwin looked up at Hermione in surprise.
"Yes, I graduated from Huayuan Primary School. How did you know?”
Hermione let out a long sigh of relief. The answer in her heart had finally been confirmed.
Then, he quickly replied.
"It really is you. When I heard your name during the sorting ceremony, I guessed so.”
Then, Hermione stretched out her hand generously.
"I'm Hermione Granger, your primary school classmate, but I'm in Class 4. I've heard about you since then. You only come to school a few times a year, but you always get full marks.”
Aylwin suddenly realized that he and Hermione were classmates in the same primary school. He hadn't recognized Hermione because he was too busy making money at that time and didn't go to school much.
If he had known that he and Hermione were classmates, he would have.。。Cough cough, that was not torture.
Aylwin also reached out and shook hands with Hermione.
"Nice to meet you, Miss Granger. It seems that we are quite fated.”
"Just call me Hermione, and besides, you've been above me in elementary school, and I'm not going to give up at Hogwarts, I'm going to be above you.”
The girl looked at Aylwin seriously and swore.
Aylwin smiled and didn't care. The girl in front of him was so serious. However, it was quite cute.
"If I were you, Mr. Gaunt, I wouldn't be flirting with a fellow student right now, but putting the powder of the venomous snake's fangs into the cauldron at once.”
said Snape's sinister voice, making Hermione blush.
But Aylwin was thick-skinned enough to put the powder into the crucible and stir it calmly.
Seeing that Aylwin was unmoved, Snape gave up. Like a bat, it floated to Harry's side, watching Harry's every move, ready to spit at any moment.
Just like that, an hour later, the group of young wizards walked out of the Potions classroom dejectedly.
Harry, in particular, had been blown out of his mind by Snape's spray. He looked like he had been played badly.
Snape had just deducted five points from Gryffindor because of his poor performance.
Aylwin, on the other hand, stayed behind. Seeing Harry's miserable state, he felt the need to talk to Snape.
He did not want to be stared at by the old bat. Although he was not afraid, it was still a problem.
"Mr. Gaunt, I think you should leave my classroom now. Do you want me to confine you?”
It's starting, Snape's starting again, it's too strong.
Aylwin didn't hesitate and went straight to the point.
"Professor, I think we can talk.”
Snape did not speak. He stared at the boy in front of him with his black eyes that were like a pool of stagnant water.
Aylwin continued.
"I'm sorry, Professor. I didn't want to see what happened at the Sorting Ceremony, but as you can see, the Sorting Hat's mouth was too fast.”
"As you said, although I am from the Gaunt family, I am a mixed-blood. As far as I know, Slytherin doesn't welcome students like me.”
"Ravenclaw was a better choice for me, for me, for the rest of the Slytherins.”
After saying this, Aylwin looked at Snape, waiting for his reply.
Snape's expression didn't change at all. He just stood there and looked at Aylwin quietly.
For a moment, the whole classroom fell silent. Aylwin could even hear Snape's breathing.
After some time, Snape finally spoke.
"Mr. Gaunt, there are some things I can stop here, but the actions of some students are beyond my control, even if I am their Dean.”
Aylwin breathed a sigh of relief. The problem was finally solved. He wanted to get on Snape's good side and learn more about Potions.
"Of course, Professor. I only care about your attitude. As for the others, they are not important. Then I'll take my leave first."
Then Aylwin bowed and left the classroom.
Snape looked at Aylwin's back and didn't say anything for a long time. His deep gaze was quietly looking into the distance.
"If, if I could have been like him at that time, Lily, would we have had a different ending?”
Snape muttered to himself as two drops of crystal appeared in his eyes.
。。。
Aylwin didn't know what Snape was thinking. He was stopped by Fred and George.
"Ah! Good afternoon, Master Gaunt."
Fred and George bowed to Aylwin in an exaggerated manner.
Aylwin was speechless and rolled his eyes.
"Don't be silly. What's the matter?"
Fred put his arm around Aylwin's shoulder with a smile.
" George and I sincerely invite you to join the Hogwarts Night Party tonight. This Saturday, at twelve o'clock in the evening, in the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor.”
Aylwin was curious about what the twins were doing. However, he had nothing to do anyway, so he could see what they were going to do.
So Aylwin agreed.
Seeing Aylwin agree readily, George and Fred left with their arms around each other's shoulders.
After saying goodbye to the two clowns, Aylwin hurried to the auditorium and had a few bites of lunch. There was a History of Magic session in the afternoon, so he was in a hurry.
Aylwin fell asleep in History of Magic class. His professor was a ghost, Professor Binns. The professor was very quiet throughout the lecture. His tone was calm and made people sleepy.
Aylwin couldn't take it. After listening for ten minutes, he fell asleep under Hermione's disappointed gaze.
Meanwhile, in the headmaster's office on the eighth floor, Snape and Dumbledore were sitting opposite each other. A conversation about Aylwin was about to begin.
