Harry knew it was the Disillusionment Charm.
He was simply shocked that Darren had used magic during summer vacation; he would be...
"Oh, brother, last year, Headmaster Dumbledore removed the restriction on my use of magic during the summer vacation. Don't worry, I'll be right back!"
"No, I'm going too!"
"Harry said quickly. He took out the Invisibility Cloak. He was about to put it on and leave."
But Hermione and Ron pulled them back at the same time.
“Take us with you!”
Harry and Darren were helpless.
So Darren had no choice but to cast a Disillusionment Charm on Hermione as well. They headed together in the direction Malfoy had gone. Unsurprisingly.
They chased them all the way to the overturned alley.
Then I saw Malfoy in Bokinbock's shop.
"Unfortunately, there's no way to hear them talking... Huh!"
Darren sighed softly.
However, he immediately pretended that he had just noticed the retractable ear in Ron's arms.
"You're still carrying that thing?"
Ron only remembered it then.
He said smugly, "I was going to put it away, but it slipped through like this. They put on the retractable ear loops."
Just then, Malfoy asked, "Is that thing fixed?"
"Not yet... but if you could bring it to my shop..."
"It's none of your business, you just fix it... If you don't want to, I think my friend Fenrir Graybury will make you understand, and of course, this too..."
Malfoy suddenly leaned close to Borginborough to show him something. Harry and the others didn't see it, so Malfoy pulled it away. Darren, however, did see it.
It's the Black Magic Mark.
But he pretended not to notice.
"Don't tell anyone, do you hear me, not even my mother!"
Malfoy said coldly at the end.
Then he walked out of Knockturn Alley. Harry and the others looked at each other in disbelief.
However, to avoid being nagged by Mrs. Weasley, they quickly ran back into the shop.
Harry and Ron dealt with Mrs. Weasley.
They told Mrs. Weasley that they had been in the back of the store, but Mrs. Weasley hadn't looked carefully.
They didn't let Darren pass. Because Darren wouldn't lie.
If Darren were to deal with Mrs. Weasley, she would likely spot his lie immediately.
However, she might be worried about Darren being upset and pretend she didn't notice. But she'll definitely teach Ron a lesson.
She would think Ron had led Darren astray.
She will also punish Ron severely.
To avoid this step, they still thought Darren could just stand there and smile.
Sure enough, they passed.
Mrs. Weasley had no doubts.
However, perhaps because of the panic she had caused when she couldn't find them earlier, Mrs. Weasley took them away beforehand.
That night.
Mrs. Weasley prepared a large table of delicious food.
They also invited Lupin and the others to Harry and Darren's sixteenth birthday party, which they had wanted to hold for a long time.
But because of Darren's situation, no one was in the mood. Now that Darren is finally back, the party is incredibly lively.
At the banquet, Sirius even played a spinning firework ride with Fred and the others.
Before the banquet ended, Fred and George gave Darren several gloves to protect him from curses.
You can deflect someone's curses simply by staring at their face.
"Although I don't think you'll need it, don't let your guard down. You'll definitely be in more danger in Slytherin than in Gryffindor!"
“That’s right. I wrote to Dumbledore last year, wanting to get you into Gryffindor, but Dumbledore thought Snape would take care of you.”
I don't think he's taken good care of you at all. He's always using his position to settle personal scores, so I don't trust him!
Sirius said angrily.
"I didn't expect a silly dog to know how important my care is!"
Snape pursed his lips.
After he finished eating, he stood up, wiped his mouth, and said, "Potter, I advise you not to stay up all night again, since you just came back from St. Mungo's."
If I see any more dark circles under your eyes, I'll take you to the school clinic!
Darren looked a little embarrassed... In reality, he was somewhat desperate.
It's clear that last year, Snape was allowed to stay up all night because Dumbledore wasn't in control of the school.
It probably won't happen this year.
After all, Dumbledore returned. And he returned unharmed.
He didn't return with charred hands as depicted in the original story.
Darren specifically asked Harry about it, pretending to be worried about Dumbledore's safety. Harry told him that Dumbledore was much healthier and safer than he, a young man.
Just tell him to take care of himself. He didn't mention his burned hand at all. It was obvious.
This time, Dumbledore didn't touch Voldemort's Horcruxes with his own hands. He knew Dumbledore couldn't bear to.
Darren wondered how Dumbledore would arrange things for Harry.
Of course, on the surface, looking at Snape's face, he still obediently nodded.
He said obediently, "I'm much better this year. I was just too excited last night. I was reading by myself, cough, I read too late. I'll be more careful in the future."

[bite……]
His words, aside from making Snape and the others look a little better, did not change their expressions.
What remained was Mrs. Weasley's angry glare at Ron: "Darren just got back, and you're keeping him up all night? He'll get sick..."
Oh, Darren, you don't think that just because you're covering for them, we don't know that they've been the ones talking to you the whole time, do you?
Everyone knows your acting skills. Last year, your performance with Severus really made everyone think that they would never let you act in those kinds of roles again.
"My child, you would never lie!"
Mrs. Weasley smiled wryly. The others nodded vigorously.
Only Ron and the others shouted, "What? It's a lie! How could it be a lie? Darren really didn't fight Snape?"
"It's Professor Snape!"
Darren certainly didn't fight with Professor Snape; they were just acting. Dumbledore was right next to Darren... he had to keep giving Darren hints.
Good heavens, Darren also said he wanted to be an Auror. He doesn't lie, but maybe he can't?
In my opinion, he should stay at Hogwarts. A kid like him is meant to stay at Hogwarts!

Chapter 629 Slughorn's Invitation!
The next morning, the Ministry of Magic sent a car to pick them up as usual. This time, in addition to Tonks, there were several Aurors.
The Aurors' expressions were extremely serious.
They stood guard near their car, their faces filled with tension.
Darren also overheard one of the Aurors saying that he felt nervous just standing around him.
Darren felt a bit like he was facing Dumbledore. He pursed his lips.
What could a handsome boy like him have to be nervous about? Of course, this could also be due to his title as the son of the Demon King. It's worth mentioning that before he got into the car...
Hibiscus came here again.
She gave Darren a big kiss on the cheek.
