HP: I’m working on redemption at Hogwarts

Chapter 73 The Dead Rat Escapes



The summer vacation of the fourth grade has passed like this, and the OWLs exam is coming in the fifth grade. Fortunately, Qiu Zhang has already made full preparations.

At the beginning of the school year, Diagon Alley is once again a crowded and lively scene. Various wizards in different costumes and students preparing supplies for the start of school are walking through the streets of Diagon Alley, busy with their own affairs.

Wood, who is in seventh grade, is a bit busy with business, but one thing that makes him happy is the news that he has responded to his application to become a member of Puddlemere United.

The official wrote back to ensure that he could sign directly as a substitute member of Puddlemere United after he graduated.

He quickly bought simple Quidditch magic equipment and the textbooks he needed to buy for seventh grade, and hurriedly said goodbye to Cho Chang and left Diagon Alley.

Qiu Zhang nodded in understanding, hugged Wood, and waved quickly so as not to waste his time.

……

On the way to Flourishes and Blotts Bookstore to buy textbooks for the new school year, a piece of newspaper-like paper was blown by the wind. Without waiting for Qiu Zhang's reaction, it was thrust directly in front of Qiu Zhang's door. Qiu Zhang immediately looked at it. The road is not clear.

"Oh, Qiu, are you okay?"

Cedric's voice came from the side, and the next moment the paper that was tightly stuck to his face finally left Qiu Zhang's cheek, and was taken off by Cedric.

"It's okay, probably!"

Qiu Zhang shook his head and said it didn't matter, and took the culprit who trapped Qiu Zhang's face from Cedric's hand, a wanted notice! ! !

This is no ordinary wanted poster, this is a wanted poster for Peter Pettigrew and Sirius who escaped from Azkaban!

Peter Pettigrew! ! ! ! !

Dwarf Peter! ! ! !

Star Peter! ! !

Peter! !

Got it!

"Holy shit!"

Qiu Zhang couldn't help but swore, and squeezed the wanted notice harder and harder, almost tearing the entire paper apart.

"Qiu, are you okay?"

Cedric noticed that Qiu Zhang was in a strange mood, and couldn't help but get closer and hold Qiu Zhang's shoulder, staring at Qiu Zhang worriedly.

"fine……"

Qiu Zhang exhaled slowly, as if he could spit out the anger and dissatisfaction in his heart. Looking at the face that shrank like a dead mouse on the wanted poster, Qiu Zhang's eyes darkened, and he didn't know what else to think about...

Soon, after purchasing textbooks and magic tools with Cedric, Qiu Zhang went to the Florin Cold Drink Shop under the leadership of Cedric.

"Want a vanilla ice cream..."

“Citrus ice cream!”

Cedric answered the call, and the clerk quickly handed two ice creams to Qiuchang and Cedric after receiving the order.

Sitting on the steps in the corner of Florin Ice Cream, Qiu Zhang quietly ate his ice cream, still holding the wanted poster tightly in his other hand. Cedric, who was sitting next to him, was also sipping his ice cream, paying attention to Qiu Zhang's emotions and expressions from time to time.

"I heard that desserts can stimulate the release of dopamine and make you feel better."

Cedric's gentle voice came from his ears. Qiu Zhang turned his head and looked over, only to see that Cedric's eyes were full of him, his eyes were focused and full of affection.

Qiu Zhang knew that Cedric could see her nervousness, her confusion, and her loss of control over her emotions.

Still pretending to be fine, he smiled at Cedric and found an excuse to reassure Cedric.

"Thank you, Cedric. I'm just a little concerned about the content of the OWLs exam..."

Qiu Zhang took a bite of the ice cream, hummed with satisfaction, shrugged and raised the corners of his mouth into a smile.

Such a poor excuse should have been easily exposed, but Cedric just stared at Qiu Zhang with deep meaning, his gentle and peaceful expression tinged with sadness.

"Qiu, no matter when you look back, I will always be behind you!"

Cedric didn't know how many secrets Qiu Zhang had in his heart, and whether these secrets were threats, but he knew one thing, he would appear in front of Qiu Zhang every moment when Qiu Zhang needed him.

Looking at Cedric's extremely serious expression, he spoke extremely affectionate and firm words that were inappropriate for his age.

At this moment, time seemed to have stood still. A ray of sunshine just fell on Cedric's gentle and affectionate smile, breaking into Qiu Zhang's sight. All the restless sounds around him disappeared, leaving only the sound of each other's mismatched heartbeats. .

Qiu Zhang didn't know what was going on. He looked at Cedric and silently lowered his head to eat ice cream. When he wasn't paying attention, he suddenly stepped forward and kissed him on the face. Both of them were stunned for a moment.

Qiu Zhang was like a child who had been caught doing something bad, so he immediately turned around and ran away.

Looking at Qiu Zhang's back walking further and further away, Cedric was still dazed and gently caressing the mark left by Qiu Zhang.

The cheek was inexplicably burning, with a slight itching, and the faint citrus fragrance unique to Qiu Zhang.

Cedric couldn't help but lower his head and chuckle, shaking his head helplessly.

It wasn't the first time that he and Qiu Zhang had kissed, but the two of them had the same tacit understanding and became shy, which really made people feel helpless.

Immediately stood up and entered the Florin Cold Drink Shop. Cedric looked at the direction Qiu Zhang left and quickly chased after him.
