"Principal, did you put this mirror here? Peter asked knowingly, but said with a somewhat disapproving look,"This Mirror of Erised is very dangerous. Even adults standing in front of it will fall into it, let alone students who often visit here.""

"You're right, it's true that I didn't think carefully," Dumbledore nodded and looked at the mirror involuntarily,"I will remove it as soon as possible, even people like me can't resist this mirror. Magic, always want to waste time in front of this mirror."

Dumbledore looked at the clear-eyed Peter beside him and said with praise,"Few people can be as sober as you. No wonder Professor Flitwick said you are a genius that only happens once in a century!"

"Principal, you are really flattering me," Peter shook his head. He looked at the scene in the mirror and said,"I just knew what I wanted, and I knew about the Mirror of Erised in advance, so I was on guard. Bewitched by its magic"

"Being able to know what you want and work hard for it, youIt has surpassed many adult wizards!"Dumbledore looked at Peter with admiration, and then said,"Thank you also for the cashmere socks you gave me, which kept me, an old guy, from freezing my toes off in this cold winter. Everyone keeps insisting on giving me books, but the gift I always want to receive is cashmere socks!"

"As long as you like it, principal," Peter said with a smile.

"Peter, you were tracking down the murderer. Did you get any results?"Dumbledore changed his mind and asked him

"There is a result, but I don’t think I’m in a hurry to close the case now, and I’m going to wait for a while to see," Peter said with a smile, looking at Dumbledore’s penetrating eyes.

"Have you been very close to Professor Quirrell recently? Flitwick complained to me that you don't go to see him much recently. The old man's temper is always like that of a child, and you need to coax him more."Dumbledore didn't ask any more questions, changed the topic again, and said with a smile.

"It’s not that he is closer, it’s just that Professor Quirrell is very knowledgeable. Of course, he is not as good as you, the principal, but he is still a rare teacher. I have to seize the time to learn more while he is still in school. Peter said with a smile.

Dumbledore was stunned for a moment, and then asked with a smile,"Why, do you think he won't be able to teach your Defense Against the Dark Arts class next semester?""

"Who knows, after all, our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor changes every year, but I think Professor Quirrell should be able to last until after the final exam this semester!"Peter's joke was full of malice.

"Professor Trelawney said that you are very talented in divination? Can you show me this old man?"Dumbledore didn't seem to hear Peter's curse-like words to Quirrell. Instead, he looked at him with interest, as if he was very interested in this topic.

"What Professor Trelawney said is too exaggerated, and I was just being vague. Headmaster, you don’t have to take it too seriously!"Peter shook his head and said. He didn't want to be Dumbledore's chief prophet. Although this old man was powerful and wise, he seemed to be very superstitious in predictions.

"Then forget it." Dumbledore looked at Peter's refusal and gave up the topic. Then he looked at the night and said,"Oh, it's very late now, Peter, you should go back and rest!"

"Goodbye, principal." Peter walked away obediently, leaving Dumbledore standing there looking at the magic mirror in ecstasy.

Christmas was over, the students returned to school one after another, and the castle became lively.

"Peter, come on, come to the rescue, give me your Potions homework to learn from!"The first thing my roommate Allen did when he came back was to ask for his homework.

"Alan, you have fallen! I haven’t even finished my homework yet! The twins looked at him with contempt,"You are the only one here who has not finished your homework. Look at us, but we have finished our homework early!""

"How is that possible? Don’t you always do your homework later than me? Alan asked in surprise, then looked at the twins with suspicion,"Did you copy Peter's homework in advance?" You and he have both stayed in school, so you can learn from it at any time!"

"You have wronged us! This time the homework was indeed written by ourselves! If you don’t believe it, you can ask Peter."The twins said confidently.

Allen looked at Peter with disbelief. These two guys asked them to do their homework consciously, fearing that the sun would come out from the west.

"They actually did their homework and finished it early!"Peter said with a smile, and then looked at the twins with a"You see" expression, and added,"They were put in solitary confinement by Professor McGonagall and could only do their homework in the office. Of course they must have finished their homework."

"Peter, you don't have to say that last thing!"After the twins were exposed, they rolled their eyes at Peter and said

"I said it was impossible for them to finish their homework on their own initiative. It turned out that they were punished and put in solitary confinement. Allen said gloatingly, and then asked curiously,"Did they do something bad and get caught?""

"These two guys actually want to lift Professor Quirrell's hood! They cast a spell on Snowball so that he kept chasing Professor Quirrell and hitting him on the head! Then he was caught red-handed by Professor McGonagall!"Peter described with a smile.

"You are awesome!"Alan gave the twins a thumbs up

"Peter, is there a student in Slytherin House who received an unknown package and was attacked by the dark magic inside and sent to the hospital?"Alan suddenly asked Peter

"How did you know about this?"Peter asked in surprise.

"A senior Slytherin student who stayed at school wrote a letter to his family about this a few days ago. Then you also know that pure-blood family relations are complicated, and it spread quickly! Alan explained, then looked at Peter's face and asked,"Who is so unlucky to receive such a gift?" Still in the hospital?"

"Is there such a thing? Haven't any of us heard about this in school?"The Weasley twins asked curiously, and then suddenly looked at Peter,"Could it be the seventh-grade girl that Peter often visits in the infirmary these days?"

"What seventh grade girl, Peter, do you know a seventh grade girl? Cedric also asked curiously

"The unlucky guy you are talking about is me. I received a cursed Christmas gift! Peter explained helplessly,"As for seventh-grade senior Luo Lin, when she was helping me open my presents, she was attacked by black magic on my behalf and almost lost her life!""

"What! Peter, you're telling me that you received a deadly Christmas gift?!"Everyone exclaimed, looking at Peter with frightened and worried expressions.

"Peter you didn't tell us! We are your friends!"The twins said to Peter angrily.

"It was Principal Dumbledore who didn't let me tell you. He wanted to avoid making this matter a big deal and causing panic!"Peter threw the blame to Dumbledore and quickly explained.

"So have you found the murderer? Cedric asked with concern.

Others also looked at Peter.

"Found it indeed!"Peter said with a smile.

"who is it? Got it?" everyone asked

"The names are kept secret for the time being. I will tell you by the end of this semester! It will do you no good to know now! Peter said, shaking his head.
