LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 51
"Rest more. A reporter from the Daily Prophet will come to interview you tomorrow." Dumbledore continued.
"Reporter? What kind of reporter are you talking about?" Thorne asked.
"Of course, a serious reporter. Although I don't interfere much in outside affairs, I still have some connections in the Daily Prophet. I can still arrange a reliable reporter for you."
"That's good." Thorne nodded. If the Daily Prophet found someone like Rita Kister for him, he really didn't know how to face her feather pen.
After saying this, he fell asleep again.
The next day he was awakened by Draco. This kid didn't know how he came to the principal's office and kept shaking himself.
"What are you doing?" Thorne asked.
"Archie Shady, the reporter of the Daily Prophet, is here. Dumbledore asked me to ask you to be interviewed. By the way, dress you up." Draco replied.
"Dress up? What can I dress up for?" Thorne looked disdainful.
The next moment, Draco violently pulled him up from the bed, saying, "Professor Snape has said that Slytherin has had a bad reputation for many years. Now I can use you to promote that there are wizards in Slytherin who fight against evil forces."
Draco dragged a huge hanger from somewhere, which was full of robes.
Draco chose a black and silver robe, with silver magic patterns flowing under the black body. Later, at Thorne's suggestion, he also wore the brooch Hermione had given him.
"Your appearance is perfect. Go for the interview, boy!" Draco pushed Thorne's shoulder and pushed him to an empty classroom, where reporter Archie Shady had been waiting for a long time.
"I'm keeping an eye on you." Draco said, blinking at Thorne.
"Hehe..." Thorne ignored Draco and looked directly at the magic subtitle behind Archishadi... It was called... a teleprompter.
The next day..............
Thorne and Draco were having breakfast in the hall. Most of the young wizards had already taken the Hogwarts Express back home, and Draco knew that Thorne was injured, so he decided to stay here for a few more days, mainly for company.
Hermione from Gryffindor also stayed in school during this period and wanted to thank Thorne in person, but because of the relationship between the colleges, the two finally met until breakfast that day.
"That... Thorne..." Hermione ran over from the long table of Gryffindor, not caring about the strange looks of other college people, and just stood behind Thorne and said faintly.
"What's wrong?" Thorne asked.
"It's just... before... I just wanted to say sorry to you. I misunderstood you before and thought you were that kind of dark wizard..." Hermione said intermittently.
"Fortunately, I remember you often defended me." Thorne replied.
"But I always regarded you as a dark wizard in my heart... Especially after the day in the Forbidden Forest... Anyway, I came to apologize to you."
These words were said by Hermione in a confused way. Perhaps it was because of her pride, or perhaps it was because of something else. Anyway, these apologies sounded a bit weird to Thorne.
"Uh... I'm not angry all the time. You don't have to hold a grudge against this matter." He still responded politely.
"I... forget it... thank you." Hermione obviously wanted to say something else, but she finally closed her mouth and ran back to the Gryffindor table as if running away.
"What's wrong with her?" Draco frowned and complained.
"I don't know either. You ask me?" Thorne shrugged and said.
"Yeah, just ignore what I said." Draco nodded.
The two chatted for a few more words, and suddenly a few owls rushed in from the window. One of them circled over Draco's head for a few times, and finally threw a bundle of newspapers in front of him.
"What is this? The Daily Prophet? You haven't subscribed to this before." Thorne looked at it and said in surprise.
"I never subscribed to it before, but today's newspaper has yours, so of course I have to subscribe to it." Draco spread out the newspaper and pointed to the report on the front page to show Thorne.
[The real Slytherin, Black shines again! ]
"The name of this front page is not very good." Thorne commented.
"It's already very good. After all, compared to the dark wizard Quirrell, Slytherin and Black are the real focus." Draco said.
"Hehe... If thatThe true identity of a dark wizard has been revealed, and the focus should be shifted. "Thorne thought maliciously in his heart.
"Anyway... I'm not very satisfied." He shrugged, ate the food on the plate in a few bites, and returned to the Slytherin dormitory with Draco.
After returning to the dormitory, Draco began to pack his luggage. After all, he stayed here to accompany Thorne because of his injury, but now Thorne is basically fine, and it's time for him to go home.
"But are you sure you don't want to come with me? That's not only my home, but also your aunt's home." At Hogsmeade Station, Draco asked Thorne again.
"No, I have other things to do during the holidays." Thorne shook his head and said.
"Well, we are all eleven years old, and I don't know why you have so many things every day." Draco complained a little angrily after being rejected.
"Because I'm better than you, kid, get in the car, the car is coming!" Thorne kicked Draco into the car.
"That... Thorne? "When he was about to leave, another voice sounded behind him.
Looking back, it was, as expected, Hermione.
"That... I told my parents about you when I went home last Christmas. At that time, they kept asking me to invite you to my house..." She said a little embarrassedly.
"Sorry, I have something else to do during the holidays, so I guess I can't go to visit." Thorne said with a wry smile.
"Okay... I knew it would be this way. I'm getting in the car. See you at the beginning of the school." Hermione rolled her eyes, thought about it, and gave Thorne a sweet hug. Her fair face also looked a little pink.
..............
"I'm leaving." Hermione waved to Thorne after getting in the car.
"Hmm... Have a safe trip." Thorne also waved and said.
