Chapter 188: Dumbledore's request

Jon wanted to leave silently again just like before.
But in the end, he chose to stop...
Gently pushed open the door of the potions classroom, he slowed down and walked in.
The movements were very light, and the two girls inside never noticed an invisible person broke into the classroom.
Astoria sat in her usual potions class seat... and Daphne Greengrass sat in Jon's usual seat.
A series of tears flowed silently from Astoria's sad face, but there was no cry, but the tears kept running down.
The tears seemed to flow continuously, never stopped... Her eyes were already a little swollen from crying, and it was distressing to look at.
The double-sided mirror Jon bought before was placed on the table in front of her.
Unfortunately, the other mirror was tightly wrapped in parchment and placed in Jon's bag.
Therefore, it is impossible for her to see anything on it.
However, her swollen eyes have never been removed from the mirror.
Daphne Greengrass held her sister tightly in her arms.
"Forget all this..." She comforted softly: "Just as if all this is just a nightmare, just as if he never appeared..."
"I don't believe it, sister...I don't believe it..." Astoria said in a hoarse voice, "Joon obviously promised me... He said that at the end of the semester, he will visit our home... In a few days, this semester will be over..."
"He is dead……"
"I don't believe... I clearly saw his eyes in the mirror..." She sobbed again.
The hoarse cry was so bitter, as if it had been soaked in coptis water.
It's a pity that Daphne's comfort didn't seem to have any effect, and it didn't even make her sister feel a little bit better.
Instead, tears appeared on her own face.
...
Jon felt that his emotions were gradually out of control.
His eyes also began to become sour.
Jon wanted to rush over, hug her, and hold her in his arms... and then tell her that he was actually alive... if it hadn't been for Occlumency to force him to maintain his remaining sanity.
The remaining sanity prevented Jon from doing this.
After all, once you expose yourself, all your previous actions will become useless.
He took a deep breath, then forced himself out of the potions classroom.
The sound of Astoria's sobbing was still in my ear.
Jon covered his ears and fled from here. He ran a long distance...
Finally, he stopped again.
Then he took out the other of the double-sided mirror from his pocket, and carefully tore open the parchment wrapped outside...
Through the double-sided mirror, he saw Astoria's face clearly; at the same time, he listened to her crying.
However, Astoria couldn't see anything, because of the existence of the phantom curse on Jon.
He sighed slightly, then wrapped the mirror in parchment again and put it in his arms.
...
It was late, although it was not yet 12 o'clock.
But Jon no longer wanted to wander in the castle, he went straight to the eighth floor.
At the door of the principal's office, the ugly stone monster half-closed his eyes and noticed that Jon was coming.
However, the stone monster seemed to feel that Jon's mood was not very good...It was busy, pretending to unintentionally move a leg, and let go of the passage, watching Jon walk past, the stone monster was relieved.
Walking into Dumbledore’s office, Jon noticed that there were obvious signs of fighting on the wall or on the bookcase... On the edge of a portrait, Jon even saw claw marks...
"You don't know how Professor Snape taught my scumbag great-grandson!" Principal Phineas-Black said happily.
The change is normal, and Jon will definitely go over and join in the fun.
It's a pity that he is out of this mood today.
...
Albus Dumbledore wore half-moon glasses and read the newspaper at his desk.
"Professor!" Jon reminded softly.
"Decided?" Dumbledore raised his head and asked gently.
Jon hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.
"I just contacted a few French friends!" Dumbledore didn't seem to see the strangeness on Jon's face, and he continued: "You will have a new identity... a fourth-grade student from Boothbatton ..."
"I've mentioned it to Mrs. Maxim, and she agreed!" Dumbledore continued, "Of course she didn't know you were Jon Hart, I just told her that you are mine. A distant relative!"
While talking, Dumbledore handed over a complete material.
Jon glanced, and the materials didn't seem to have any problems...
"Professor..." Jon only felt his own voice, becoming a little hoarse.
"Of course, Jon!" Dumbledore's tone suddenly became serious: "I mentioned to you before, for you, I also have a request..."
Wandering around the school in the afternoon, Jon almost forgot about it.
"Go ahead, principal..." Jon said quickly.
"First of all, this is just a request. Whether you agree or not depends on you..." Dumbledore's voice became very soft: "I think you now have a new identity..."
Jon nodded.
"In Voldemort's eyes, you are dead; a little trash fish that he killed casually will certainly not pay much attention to you..." Dumbledore continued, "So, you are safe now. ..."
Jon nodded again.
"My request is, I just want you to come to Hogwarts next year as an exchange student!"
"Exchange student?" Jon was stunned for a moment~EbookFREE.me~ Yes, an exchange student from Busbarton, for one year... After one year, you no longer have any relationship with Hogwarts. . "Dumbledore said calmly, "It's up to you whether you want to go to France or stay." "
"Professor, I don't quite understand..." Jon stammered.
"It's that simple." Dumbledore's light blue eyes looked straight into Jon's eyes: "I hope you can come to Hogwarts for another year..."
"At the same time, I promise you that in a year... I will tell you a very important secret about you!"
Jon felt his breathing become a little quick.
"I said, this is just a request...just like the request you made to me before, it depends on your personal wishes." Dumbledore took off his half-moon glasses and rubbed his eyes:
"So Jon, what's your answer?"
