HP Hogwarts New Student
Chapter 41: Final exams are coming up so soon? (1)
Just when Ginny was hesitating whether she should say something…
“This operation!” Selena had already walked onto the stage, and under everyone’s gaze, she said: “It was a success!!!”
Ginny raised her head abruptly. The person was not caught, and everyone was almost in danger! This, this is considered a success? The most important thing is, what is the purpose of this operation? Isn’t it to find clues related to the broken seal? Those two black-robed men obviously know something. It would be considered a success if we really got useful information from them. At least, we have to catch the person, right?
Ginny was struggling, but the children next to her were already cheering!
Jaina said proudly to Lily beside her: “Did you see my last quick imprisonment?”
Lily nodded excitedly: “How was my performance? It made me attract attention at that time!”
“You’ll look more like it if you cry!” Jaina pulled Lily’s hand.
“Come on,” Albus said disdainfully, but his face was also full of excitement, and he turned to the podium: “How do you know I prepared a bat?”
“I reported all the props to Selena,” Scorpius explained.
“You kid!” Albus pressed his hand on Scorpius’ head. At that moment, Albus looked more like James.
Xiaopo looked at the people around him with a face full of joy. After all, this time, he was no longer the one who needed to be protected. He also participated in the battle and even rushed to the front to protect everyone! That’s right!
“Hey!” CG patted Xiaopo’s shoulder and handed him a glass of pumpkin juice: “Good job!”
“Yes! Very brave!” James also came over, clinked the cup in his hand against Xiaopo’s cup, and started drinking.
Xiao Po smiled foolishly and drank with big gulps, and the classroom was in chaos.
Ginny’s expression gradually softened. Yes, what does it matter if we don’t catch anyone, get any information, or get any clues? We can just keep looking! The most important thing is that the children grow up in action. This is DA!
Selena came to Ginny’s side: “Professor, what do you think of this operation?”
What do you think? Forget it, who cares?!
Ginny didn’t answer. She rubbed Selena’s head vigorously, picked up a cup of pumpkin seeds and stood up: “Children, children, I propose a toast to DA!”
After a moment of silence, everyone raised their glasses excitedly and shouted together, “DA!” at this moment that belonged to them alone.
–
The news of the riot at the Hog’s Head Bar spread quickly, especially after Selena exaggerated the whole story and published it in The Quibbler.
Naturally, Professor McGonagall severely criticized Ginny’s behavior. After all, students who are not old enough should not appear in Hogsmeade. Of course, it is also possible that the people from the Ministry of Magic came to the school again, and Professor McGonagall would not treat them well, but the pressure from outside was indeed increasing. After all, there were too many things involved in Hu Xiaopo’s every move.
Therefore, Hermione personally gave extra points to all the DA children because they successfully eliminated the potential threat to the safety of teachers and students. And immediately, she also deducted points from Little Bro, CG, Selena and Winice because they should not have violated the rules and appeared in Hogsmeade. And she formally warned everyone not to take such risks!
But as Ginny always said, who cares? This is DA! After hearing this explanation, Hermione looked at her old friend knowingly and said nothing more. Yes, this is DA!
However, there are some things that even the DA has to take care of!
Because I don’t know since when, it seems that professors of all subjects are reminding everyone that the final exams are coming soon!
“Oh my God! The final exam is coming up so soon?” Selena said with a strange expression after the Charms get out of class.
“Are you still worried about the final exam?” Xiaopo replied puzzledly.
Selena looked at Xiaopo with disdain: “I’m worried about you. Professor Flitwick said that if your level doesn’t improve, you will be held back next year!”
“What can I do?” Xiaopo said helplessly, “I have tried my best, but it is a seal, how can I use magic?! I want to try the killing curse again now!”
“Don’t talk nonsense!” Selena glared at Xiaopo seriously and said, “I don’t know how CG’s Owls is doing. It should be these few days.”
“What else can we do? It would be news if he failed any subject.” Xiaopo said excitedly, as if he was very happy that he did well in the CG test: “It’s great to know magic!”
“It’s okay, let’s go to the library!” Selena pulled Xiaopo out of the crowd.
“Wait, lunch! Lunch! Selena!”
Xiaopo tried hard to break free, but was dragged by Selena towards the library. However, an hour later, Selena’s stomach reminded her, and the two returned to the dining table in the auditorium.
The examiners seemed to have arrived, and there were a few more strangers at the faculty table, chatting cordially with the professors.
Two days later, the NEWT and OWLS exams officially started, and it seemed that all of a sudden, everyone became nervous.
Even Ginny stopped the biweekly DA meetings so that everyone could spend more time reviewing their lessons.
Because soon, the final exam is really here!
“Come on!” Xiaopo encouraged himself in front of the mirror, put a smile on his face, and walked into the examination room!
In the first few theory exams, Xiaopo felt that he had done well. Although he had missed a lot of classes, he did study hard because Selena always brought him notes.
But in the following exams, especially the Charms exams, after Xiaopo waved his wand again with great effort, Professor Flitwick just patted Xiaopo’s shoulder comfortingly and called the next person.
Fortunately, there were not many courses in the first grade, and three days later, Xiaopo had his last exam.
In the empty auditorium, there were individual desks placed in the middle. Xiaopo looked up at the clock in front of him. There were only 5 minutes left.
Xiaopo had already written down everything he knew on the test paper, and there was nothing he could do about the rest.
Xiaopo rested his chin on his arms and closed his eyes.
It would be nice if I could avoid going back to the welfare home during the summer vacation. I am not Harry Potter, do I really have to go back once a year? But I should go back to see Uncle Fatty, I haven’t seen him for a year.
Xiao Po was thinking wildly in his mind. Before he knew it, he seemed to have come to the Forbidden Forest again. This time, the Forbidden Forest only flashed by. More information and pictures appeared in front of Xiao Po’s eyes. Where is this? What is this? Xiao Po wanted to take a closer look, but it seemed that he was too late to sort it all out…
“Time’s up, classmates…” Ginny said as she stood up.
“Bang!”
There was a heavy sound of the door opening, and Hagrid’s huge figure appeared at the door of the classroom, holding a crossbow in one hand and the other hand on the door, his upper body heaving as he gasped for breath.

Hagrid’s heavy body made the door creak. The students could no longer control themselves and continue to stick to the test records and not look at Hagrid at the door, because…
“Ginny,” Hagrid’s rough voice sounded, his tone was extremely anxious: “You have to come with me, Lily is in trouble!”
Sounds of panic and whispers instantly spread throughout the examination room.
Ginny frowned, then instantly regained her composure.
“Quiet!” Ginny said seriously, and with a flick of her wand she collected everyone’s test papers: “Students please leave in an orderly manner.”
Then, he walked quickly to the door!
“Professor!” Xiaopo followed, followed by Selena, Winis, and of course the other first graders.
Ginny stopped walking, turned around, and tried to make her words sound less harsh: “Okay, kids, before things get any clearer, I want you to go back to your respective dormitories and prepare for the next exam.”
Under Ginny’s gaze, the children left reluctantly, except for Little Brontë, Selena and Winice.
“You too…” Ginny was about to speak, but the warmth in her pocket made her stop.
“We are the DA!”
That’s right, no one spoke, but the moment the warmth from the gold coins came, there was no need to speak anymore.
This is even more true for Xiaopo. Now everyone in DA is a rare friend of Xiaopo!
Ginny didn’t say anything else, and walked quickly to Hagrid: “What’s going on, Hagrid?”
“You have to come with me, in the Forbidden Forest,” Hagrid said anxiously, “I don’t know what happened, but I saw Lily go in, and then… magic, powerful magic, I don’t know how to describe it, you better come with me and see.”
Ginny couldn’t help but look towards the Forbidden Forest outside the window. The Forbidden Forest was blocked, but a group of dark clouds were slowly gathering in the sky in the direction of the Forbidden Forest.
Ginny couldn’t help but frowned and turned to look at the three children: “Wines, go inform the other professors. Little Bro, help me find James and Albus. Selena, notify the other DA members. Go, let everyone gather outside the Forbidden Forest!”
“Ginny,” Hagrid covered his head, seeming to be in pain: “We have to hurry!”
Ginny quickly held Hagrid’s arm and asked with concern, “Are you hurt?”
Hagrid shook his head and seemed to recover: “It’s okay, we…”
“Let’s go now!” Ginny nodded and pulled Hagrid towards the door quickly!
Seeing this, Xiaopo no longer hesitated and turned around to walk out, but was stopped by Selena: “Where are you going?”
“Of course, go find James and Albus!” Little Po was a little anxious and looked at Selena in confusion.
“Where are you going to find it?” Selena frowned and gave Xiaopo a blank look. She then took out the fake Galleons and passed the message to all DA members.
“Emergency! Meet at the castle gate!”
Looking at the fake Galleon in Selena’s hand, Xiaopo felt a little relieved.
Selena’s brows were still furrowed, and she looked at Winness: “Winness, go inform the professors and tell them the situation. We may enter the Forbidden Forest first, and we will leave marks for you along the way. Remember, you must stay beside the professors!”
Winice held the fake Galleon tightly in her hand, nodded solemnly, and left, trotting towards the staff lounge.
5 minutes later, after CG arrived last, all DAs were gathered, except for Winnies who had not returned to inform the professors, and Lily whose situation was unknown!
Selena briefly explained the situation, held down Albus who was about to jump up anxiously, persuaded James, made simple arrangements with the most concise words, and then walked out of the Forbidden Forest.
However, just outside the Forbidden Forest, all plans went out of control, because they saw Fang lying on the ground, dark clouds as black as ink above their heads, and even after the flash of lightning, they heard Ginny’s painful screams coming from far away in the Forbidden Forest!
“Mom!”
Ginny’s scream became the last straw that broke the children’s psychological defenses. Albus could no longer suppress his inner anxiety and rushed in first!
James followed closely behind and said that he would make plans after he rescued the people!
Selena frowned even more tightly, glanced at CG and Xiaopo, and led everyone to rush towards the direction where the sound came from!
…
“Hagrid, are you crazy?!” Ginny covered her broken arm, propped herself up, and leaned against a big tree nearby.
The wound was still bleeding and the wand fell to the side. Ginny looked at Hagrid with a painful expression. He seemed to have completely lost consciousness but was still moving!
Hagrid’s eyes were dark, and he seemed not to have heard Ginny’s words at all. He held the broken crossbow in his hand and smashed it towards Ginny madly.
Ginny raised her hand and threw a bat spirit, which hit Hagrid in the face. However, Hagrid caught it with one hand and threw it aside!
Fortunately, Ginny took this opportunity to pick up her wand again!
Just then, the children arrived!
“Mom! We’re here!”
Albus and James were the first to be hit! Without caring about what was going on with Hagrid in front of them, they cast spells at Hagrid and rushed to Ginny’s side!
However, everything was in vain. Spells one after another fell on Hagrid, but they could not affect Hagrid’s movements at all.
“Giant bloodline!” Selena, who was following behind, sighed: “CG!”
There was no need for Selena to give any orders, CG had already performed his martial arts early on, and this time, the magic was actually cast under CG’s feet!
Seeing a gust of wind rising, CG exerted force with his feet, and arrived first, overtaking Albus and James, and kicked straight towards Hagrid!
“Don’t hurt him!” Ginny warned loudly: “He is under control!”
“How is this possible! The giant bloodline cannot be controlled!” Jaina, who was following behind, said as she ran.
“Nothing is impossible!” Selena frowned even more. There must be something wrong here! A big problem!
An ominous premonition arose spontaneously, and subconsciously, Selena looked at Xiaopo who was following beside her!
But this one glance seemed to have pressed a switch on something!
The next second, everything went wrong!
A loud and noisy sound suddenly appeared from nowhere! The ground was shaking, leaves were tumbling, and pairs of strange eyes lit up in the darkness!
One pair, two pairs, hundreds of pairs, countless pairs!
What are these?
The next second, Selena had the answer!
Giant spider! They entered the giant spider’s territory? Impossible, they had just entered the forbidden forest not long ago!
But there is no time for the children to think about it!
“Be careful!” Selena reminded loudly at the first moment!
But it’s too late!
Countless spider webs mixed with venom rushed down from the sky! Following closely, spiders taller than humans rushed up! Countless spiders surged over like a tide. The hideous faces and terrifying giant claws appeared in front of everyone in the blink of an eye!

Everyone’s reaction at the same time was to put up their shields!
But in the face of such a large number of monsters, that layer of shield is so fragile and powerless!
What’s even more dangerous is CG who is still fighting with Hagrid outside!
Bang!
A crisp cracking sound was heard!
A green spider broke through the shield, and James was the first to be hit. A petrification spell hit the green body, sending the owner of the body flying backwards!
However, more and more shattering sounds were heard around.
Dense cracks climbed up the shield visibly.
Xiaopo picked up a piece of wood from the ground and was ready to fight.
Ginny, however, held on, protecting the children behind her and closing her eyes to meditate!
The shield shattered, and giant spiders surged forward like a tide. The next second, Ginny opened her eyes, and flames flowed along Ginny’s wand to the spiders around her. For a moment, the smell of burning made people nauseous, but no one cared about it, because more monsters were still rushing forward!
The children performed magic one after another, and Xiaopo also swung the wooden stick in his hand!
At this moment, CG shook his palms, opened a gap, and rushed back to the battle group. Hagrid’s body lying on the ground was instantly submerged by spiders…
“How’s Hagrid?” Ginny asked while controlling her magic. The wounds on her body were still bleeding slowly, and Ginny’s face became increasingly ugly.
“Knocked him out.” CG said lightly, and two fire dragons appeared in his hands!
“How many spiders are there?” Albus shouted angrily. Seeing that a giant spider had already broken through the blockade, Scorpius cast a spell in time to push the giant spider away.
No one answered. No one could answer! With the naked eye, there were already more than a thousand of them!
“Selena, think of a way!” Xiaopo waved the wooden stick. Although he was agile now and could block it for a while, this was not a solution!
“Drag them until rescue!” Selena frowned and looked in the direction of the castle, but endless spiders blocked everything!
“Is this your way?” Xiaopo complained.
Selena rolled her eyes at Xiaopo.
CG controlled the fire dragon and cleared a gap: “Follow me, I will lead you to fight!”
“You go first!” Ginny raised her wand in pain: “I have to find Lily!”
“I’m going too!” Albus roared, supporting the staggering Ginny with his back.
“Let’s go out first and think of a solution later?” Jaina didn’t want to leave anyone behind.
“Lily can’t wait…” Ginny almost yelled. Maybe it was because she used too much force that she felt dizzy. “You go first!”
“We are the DA!” Xiaopo shouted!
“And then?” Selena yelled with a frown on her face. She hated the feeling of powerlessness.
“Think of a way!” Xiaopo shouted, breaking the spider web for Jaina next to him and knocking away the spider that pounced on him with a stick.
“MD…” Selena yelled directly, and gave the command helplessly: “CG block the depths of the Forbidden Forest, and everyone else gather and move outside the Forbidden Forest!”
“No…” Ginny yelled, but her eyes went dark and she fainted!
“Mom!” Albus held Ginny tightly. A loophole appeared in his defense in an instant.
Everyone tried hard to cast magic in this direction, but there were too many spiders!
At this moment, a flash of magic appeared in the direction outside the Forbidden Forest!
The sharp-eyed Jaina was the first to see it and shouted excitedly: “Rescue! The professors are here!”
Everyone was shocked and tried to stabilize the situation. The magic in the distance became clearer and clearer. Judging from the frequency and number of magic, there were at least a dozen people!
But……
After charging and fighting for a while, the rescue that arrived seemed to be trapped in the distance!
Selena frowned immediately: “CG! Let’s kill them!”
CG looked into the distance, waved his palms and a surge of magic burst out, creating a gap, and while the spiders had not yet surrounded him, he rushed in that direction!
Finally, the two sides reunited, and at this moment, everyone finally understood why the “professors” were trapped in the spider swarm!
“Trod! What are you doing here?” After seeing who was coming, Jaina shouted first.
Trod! The one who had left the DA because of fear and terror! And the dozen people around him were also the ones who left the DA after that party!
“I also want to know why you are here? Can’t you just not cause trouble? Can’t you just stay in the castle honestly?” Trod shouted dissatisfiedly, trying to deal with the spiders around them. They obviously did not have the strength of CG and his team, and they were surrounded by spiders and could not move.
“Then what are you doing here?” Albus cursed angrily. He and James each held one of Ginny’s arms and tried their best to fight off the spider.
“Do you think I want to come? Do you think we don’t want to relax after the exam?!” Trod waved his wand, kicked away a spider that had already arrived in front of him, and shouted angrily: “But we saw that you were in danger! Can we just stand outside and watch? Although I am no longer a DA, I am still a Gryffindor!”
“…” Albus swallowed the dirty words that were about to come out of his mouth and muttered silently.
“He said thank you!” James next to him shouted for Albus, but Albus looked grim and resisted the urge to yell at James.
Trod was stunned, but there was no time for him to be stunned! Seeing another spider rushing forward, Trod quickly cast a spell: “What should I do now?”
“Kill them!” CG yelled from the side!
“Impossible!” Trod roared, “The outside is completely blocked by spiders. We can only go deeper!”
“Then, kill them all!” CG took several empty steps in the air, but those steps, which were clearly on the air, made CG fly into the air instantly!
With space, we can use it! CG raised his palms, and nine fire dragons attacked the surroundings at the same time. The fire dragons rushed into the giant spiders wantonly, burning everything wherever they passed. This momentum shocked everyone present.
“Good…good job…” Trod said on behalf of the others, stuttering.
But after the CG fell, his brows were furrowed.
Because at the moment of taking off, CG clearly saw that the surrounding mountains and plains were full of spiders, and behind the spiders, there seemed to be other monsters, with huge sharp horns, strange claws, diffuse black flames, and gathering fog…
What’s going on with these monsters? Are they going berserk? Or is there something more terrifying driving them?
No one knows exactly what is going on. The only thing we know is that if we continue like this, we may not be able to hold on until rescue!
Selena noticed something strange on CG’s face. CG shook his head helplessly and said nothing. He controlled the fire dragon to meet the monsters that had gathered again.
Persistence, now the only thing you can do is persist!
Suddenly a roar pierced the sky!
Chapter 41: Final exams are coming up so soon? (4) (Old version)
Black shadows rushed down from the hillside in the distance and merged into a torrent, tearing a gap in the heavy encirclement of monsters!
Centaurs! Groups of centaurs! The sound of horses’ hooves, neighing, and shouting! The surging momentum seemed to scare the monsters around. The spiders subconsciously made way!
“Hey, here, help us!” Trod seemed to see hope and shouted loudly!
But the leading centaur just gave Trod a disdainful look and rushed in another direction!
“Centaurs never interfere with the future!” A deep voice sounded from the depths of the forbidden forest: “We are just passing by. Whether you can catch up or not is up to you!”
Everyone was stunned, and then quickly followed!
Although the centaurs said they didn’t care, they still left a gap in the middle for the children. The centaurs on both sides blocked all the giant spiders. Under the iron hooves of the centaurs, the monster in the distance slowly changed direction!
Seeing the edge of the forbidden forest just ahead, CG suddenly stopped behind!
Xiaopo turned around suddenly and looked at CG. He understood immediately and walked to CG’s side silently: “If there is any conspiracy in this school, it must be because of me. I can’t stand by and watch you get into danger because of me!”
“You two idiots!” Selena cursed and stopped. “What can you do without me?”
Scorpius stopped silently!
Seeing this, Jaina also wanted to stop, but Jaime pulled her over and gave Ginny’s arm to Jaina!
Trod hesitated, and Albus had already followed suit and handed Ginny’s other arm to him: “Take my mother out! Take the others away!”
There was a hint of unquestionableness in Albus’ tone, which was unique to the Potter family!
Trod nodded solemnly and led the others out of the forbidden forest!
The DAs who stayed behind have headed back to the Forbidden Forest!
The horses neighed and raised their front hooves, as if they wanted to stop the children who were turning back and heading towards the forbidden forest!
“If you really want to help, let us pass!” Xiaopo took the lead and shouted loudly with a serious face for the first time: “We! Go to save people!”
The horsemen blocking the front pulled their bowstrings to their full potential and aimed at Xiaopo!
But Xiaopo looked at the centaur in front without fear, ignoring the cold arrows flashing around him!
The sound of horse hooves rang out, and among the centaurs, a centaur who was not tall but had a dignified look slowly walked out, Bain!
Bain gently suppressed the bow and arrow of the centaur next to him, walked up to Xiaopo, and looked at the little guy in front of him with contempt: “What can you do?”
Xiaopo couldn’t remember how many people had asked him the same question! The same tone, the same contempt!
“I can do a lot!” Xiaopo roared, his eyes wide open!
CG stepped forward but was stopped by Xiaopo!
Xiaopo raised his head and glared at Bain, refusing to give in: “Let us pass! Otherwise!”
“How?” Bain replied coldly.
But at this moment, there was another commotion in the Forbidden Forest! The centaurs looked behind them and saw a huge black shadow, taking heavy steps and rushing towards them like flying!
“Hagrid!” Bane roared!
Countless arrows were shot out, but most of them were blocked by the stone crossbow swung by Hagrid!
Hagrid was like a madman, running straight towards Little Brontë without caring about anything, as if he wanted to catch Little Brontë!
Seeing this, CG pulled Xiaopo and was about to retreat!
But at this moment, Xiaopo had a feeling! At this moment, he couldn’t retreat!!!
Xiaopo broke free from CG and rushed towards Hagrid!
Seeing this, Hagrid rushed forward with a strange cry, raised the crossbow high above his head, and smashed it down on his head!
“Little Broken!!!” Selena shouted loudly!
The DAs all moved in an instant, casting spells at Hagrid!
But the speed of magic is not even as fast as Hagrid!
The stone crossbow was about to hit Xiaopo on the head!
“Professor!” Hagrid’s voice rang out, and he stretched out one hand and pressed it against Hagrid’s forehead!
Magic? It doesn’t exist. This is Xiaopo, a sealed Xiaopo! Under the black crystal, even the death curse can be blocked!
In an instant, Hagrid stopped, and his huge body froze in place as if he was hit by a spell!
Xiaopo opened his eyes carefully! The stone crossbow was less than 1 centimeter away from his head!
Xiao Po looked at the stone crossbow with relief, and slowly turned his head, only then he realized that it was not his luck at all!
It’s CG! CG crossed his hands and tightly grasped the crossbow!
The sound of shattering rang out in CG’s iron palm!
The cracks quickly spread to the entire stone crossbow!
The debris fell and Hagrid fell limply to the ground. His dark eyes showed confusion and gratitude, and he kept muttering something over and over in his mouth, but no sound came out.
CG lowered his hands and crushed the last bit of stone in his hands into powder.
The other children also rushed over. Jaina lay beside Hagrid. After a while, she raised her head and looked at the others anxiously: “Professor Hagrid said that the Scourge soldiers took Lily away. There is danger deep in the Forbidden Forest!”
James opened his big hand and patted CG’s shoulder: “Take care of the others! Albus, let’s go!”
After saying that, James strode towards the depths of the Forbidden Forest. Albus pulled Scorpius, who wanted to follow him, to the ground, looked at Scorpius with a smile, and followed him without saying a word!
“Stop right there, you two!” Selena, with her hair disheveled and no longer caring about being elegant, yelled like a madman under the gaze of the centaurs and DAs!
James paused, but just waved his hand behind him and continued to move forward firmly!
Albus turned around and said, “Thanks! You first years, just go back first! The rest is our Potter family’s business!”
“You self-righteous Potters!” Selena yelled angrily, “There is obviously a better way!”
However, the next second, a bone-chilling chill swept over!
The dark clouds in the sky seemed to have completely formed, and there was a layer of frost on the ground, covering it visibly to the naked eye!
The horsemen stamped their hooves anxiously, and the giant spiders and various monsters in the distance retreated anxiously the moment the frost appeared! It was as if it was not frost at all, but something extremely terrifying was about to fall!
“What are you still hesitating about?” The bearded man’s cold voice rang out in the forbidden forest, with a hint of cruel smile: “This girl is about to die!”
“Scoop!” Albus roared madly around!
As if in response, ice crystals suddenly surged under Albus’ feet!
If it was Albus a few months ago, he might not have had time to react at all, but after so much training, Albus instinctively leaped backwards with his wand pointing at the ground. He saw the magical light gathering at the front of the wand!
However! It’s still too late!
The ice crystals climbed up Albus’ feet at an extremely fast speed, and then, the huge transparent ice prison completely froze Albus in the blink of an eye!
Chapter 42: Let Lily go, and I’ll go with you! (1) (Old version)
The magic at the tip of the wand died, and James ran over anxiously.
“If you don’t want to die, just stay where you are.” The bearded man said calmly, with a smug tone in his voice: “Now I don’t care about killing you all together.”
Looking at the familiar ice prison, listening to the taunts of the bearded man! I understand, everything is clear, the bearded man and the Ministry of Magic again! He lay dormant for so long, even taking away students, all for the sake of the little bastard!
Xiaopo took a look at CG and gently pressed his hand on the ice crystal!
There was a crackling sound! Ice crystals scattered, and a mandrake floated beside Albus!
“It’s great to know magic~”
Scorpius sighed once again, took out a piece of chocolate and put it in the hands of Albus who was shaking uncontrollably, then took out some more and gave them to Scorpius who rushed over, patted James on the shoulder, and without hesitation, shouted at the people around him.
“Let Lily go! I’ll go with you!”
Xiaopo’s voice echoed in the forbidden forest, but no one responded!
“It’s me you want, isn’t it?! Answer me!”
However, this time, it was the bearded man’s almost crazy laughter that answered Xiaopo: “Hahaha! You can easily break my magic! Very good, very good! Come on, dark lord, let me end the evil prophecy today! Hahaha…”
“Then let Lily go! I’ll go with you!” Xiaopo did not explain, because there was no need for explanation!
“good!”
The bearded man’s roar echoed in the forest! A path covered with ice and snow instantly extended to Xiaopo’s front. Everything seemed so natural…
Xiaopo turned around and looked at the others, smiled, and walked up resolutely!
CG raised his hand to stop Xiaopo, ice crystals rose up, and CG crushed them with his foot. As if he had known that the ice prison could not stop CG, a huge ice wall rose from the ground and blocked CG!
CG raised his hand expressionlessly, and a fire dragon roared, shattering the ice wall!
But at this moment, Lily’s scream of pain was heard again in the forbidden forest!
James yelled and stood up angrily, but like Albus, he was frozen in the ice prison the next second.
Xiaopo gently pressed his hand on the ice prison, released James, patted James’ arm, and continued to move forward!
CG was furious, and used magic with both palms. What if there was an ice wall? Just smash it! The ice walls shattered one after another, and CG punched Xiaopo again and again.
Lily’s heart-wrenching screams rang out from the depths of the forbidden forest!
Xiaopo turned around helplessly, smiled and shook his head: “Change back to Lily, and come save me again! I can’t die!”
CG stopped helplessly and grabbed Xiaopo’s robe: “Don’t die! Wait for me!”
CG let go of Xiaopo, and no one noticed that a stone with sparkling ripples had slipped into Xiaopo’s pocket.
“Selena,” Xiaopo turned to Selena: “Take care of everyone!”
“Idiot!” Selena cursed, tears in her eyes.
Xiaopo turned around and set foot on the white path that led to death again.
“Little Broke!” Albus’ mouth was still trembling!
Xiaopo looked back and something seemed to be thrown towards him from the sky!
Xiaopo subconsciously raised his hand, and after taking it, he found that it was Albus’s invisibility cloak.
“Don’t die!” Albus said tremblingly, “The professors are coming!”
“Don’t worry!” Xiaopo put on a silly smile again and looked at everyone in the field, including the centaurs who had already begun to be moved and did not dare to look at Xiaopo: “I can’t die!”
Xiaopo put away his invisible cloak and stepped forward!
The light was getting dimmer and dimmer, Xiaopo was walking further and further away, and the ice crystals were also slowly retreating back into the depths of the forbidden forest as Xiaopo moved forward.
Everything seems to have returned to peace! But only those who have experienced it personally know what this peace represents!
Xiaopo walked on the path. The crystal ground reflected the dim light. His mind was blank at this moment. Xiaopo closed his eyes and let his feet carry him forward.
Is this what meditation is? Meditation that lets go of everything?
Xiaopo didn’t know the answer! But at this moment, Xiaopo could truly feel the surge of magic in his body! It was long and meaningful! Under the shackles of the black crystal, he waited quietly! Waiting for Xiaopo’s call!
But Xiaopo can’t!
Xiao Po slowly opened his eyes. He didn’t dare to attack the seal again. He couldn’t let his magic run wild again! What a pity! It would be great if this moment could come sooner!
This time it’s really like CG said, there’s no time!
Because at this time, Xiaopo had already seen the open space deep in the forbidden forest. There were vague human figures hiding in the darkness around the open space. In the middle of the open space, Lily was floating unconscious in the air, and there was a bearded man standing next to her with an excited look on his face!
“Let Lily go!” Xiaopo raised his head and said calmly.
“Hahahaha!” The bearded man laughed and raised his wand suddenly!
Xiaopo’s body flew uncontrollably to the side of the bearded man, who grabbed Xiaopo’s throat!
Xiao Po let the bearded man hold him, his face flushed red, but he did not struggle, he just said with difficulty: “Let her go!”
The bearded man didn’t seem to have any intention of letting him go! He continued to exert force with his hands, laughing wantonly, as if he was crazy!
“I say!” Xiaopo was angry, staring at the bearded man, clasping his wrists tightly with both hands, and exerting force with both hands: “Let Lily go!”
The bearded man disappeared instantly and cast his magic at the gasping little boy!
At the same time, the dark shadows around moved, and in an instant, all kinds of magic rushed straight to Xiaopo!
Xiaopo didn’t even look at the others! He just grabbed the ground with his hands, regardless of what he grabbed, whether it was leaves or dirt, he just threw it into the air!
He exerted force on his feet and rushed towards Lily in the air!
A black crystal shadow appeared in the air. It was Xiaopo. Xiaopo’s whole body crashed into the magic that controlled Lily! And the next second, the magic completely disappeared. This was the power of the seal!
Xiaopo hugged Lily who was still in the air, and the two of them fell to the side. The moment they landed, Xiaopo used all his strength to roll on the ground with Lily, and magic hit the position where the two were just now!
Beautiful landing, perfect turn! Even if it is CG, if you see Xiaopo’s action just now, you will also praise it!
But Xiaopo was alone after all! There were so many shadows casting spells around him at the same time, and more magic still hit Xiaopo!
Black Crystal appeared again and again. Xiaopo gritted his teeth and endured the pain! Xiaopo was betting that the Ministry of Magic didn’t want to kill him yet. He bet that the bearded man had spent so much effort and so much time to lead him here, and it was definitely not just to kill him!
Three things to do when reading: read, collect, and reward!
Chapter 42: Let Lily go, and I’ll go with you! (2) (Old version)
Xiaopo won the bet, but he was still surrounded!
As expected, when Xiaopo looked up again, the bearded man had appeared out of thin air in front of him!
Xiaopo reached for his pocket, but the next second, the bearded man kicked him hard in the stomach!
Little Po flew out backwards with a smile on his face! Because the invisibility cloak had been stuffed into Lily’s arms, the bottle of potion that Madam Pomfrey had given Little Po for emergency use had been spilled on Lily’s face. And Lily was twisting her body and slowly waking up!
However, the bearded man still noticed Xiaopo’s little trick, stepped on the hair of the still confused Lily, and pointed his wand at her…
“Stop!” Xiaopo yelled!
“stop!”
Almost at the same time, another voice came from the darkness, the sound of horse hooves rang out, and sapphire eyes were filled with anger. Firenze walked quickly to Lily, pushed away the bearded man, and lifted Lily onto his back!
The bearded man glared at Firenze, but Firenze just turned around to look at Xiaopo. His golden hair didn’t seem to be affected by the darkness. He walked out of the forbidden forest with Lily!
“Can I say she can leave now?” came the bearded man’s cold voice!
Dark shadows descended, wands pointed directly at Firenze.
“The child has arrived. This girl is useless to you!” Firenze turned around calmly, glancing at the empty space beside him. “Besides, she is the child of the Potter family. Are you sure you want to do it?”
The bearded man muttered to himself, but he still raised his hand! The shadow dissipated and made way for him to leave!
Firenze looked at Xiaopo again, as if he wanted to say something!
“roll!”
The bearded man roared, “No one is allowed to touch his prey! This is the rule of the Supervision Department!”
Firenze looked up at the dense treetops, not knowing what he was looking at. He sighed, then carried Lily out of the Forbidden Forest!
Xiaopo was still lying on the ground, and did not show any surprise. For Xiaopo now, seeing Lily leave safely was enough!
Struggle desperately? It’s meaningless. If he could really rely on the seal to deal with so many people, he wouldn’t have been hit by so many magics just now! If there is a chance, I really need to learn martial arts well. Maybe then, even without magic, I can fight well with martial arts and seals!
But there are no ifs anymore!
The bearded man walked up slowly and grabbed Xiaopo’s collar. Xiaopo let the bearded man drag him and was thrown into the center of the open space!
A strange magic circle was placed in the center. The six little guys thought it was a black shadow of stone, but it moved at the same time the little guy fell.
The sound of stones rubbing against each other rang out! Xiaopo could even feel the excitement of the surrounding black shadows!
“Let’s start!” said the bearded man casually.
The magic circle on the ground emitted a creepy dim light, and Xiaopo felt his whole body tighten. An unprecedented pain instantly surged in every cell of his body!
“Ah!” Xiaopo could no longer control himself, screamed, and then fainted!
“Little Broken!”
CG’s voice rang out in the open space that Firenze had just been looking at! The Disillusionment Spell made CG blend into the environment! But CG flew up, and the moment his figure approached the magic circle, the Disillusionment Spell disappeared! But at this moment, who cares about these, CG still rushed towards Xiaopo!
The bearded man disappeared with a bang. The next second, CG felt a huge force coming at him and he fell heavily to the ground!
Beard, beard again!
CG, still flying in the air, glared at the bearded man fiercely!
The moment he landed, he rolled over to get rid of the old force, and then he stepped on the ground with a sound of breaking through the air!
CG instantly appeared in front of the bearded man, magic gathered in his palms, and the fire dragon roared and slammed into the bearded man!
But!
The familiar feeling comes again!
The bearded man smiled and shattered into pieces! The ice crystals scattered! Another fake body, another ice cube!
At the same time, a series of black shadows appeared out of nowhere and surrounded CG in an instant, with magic wands pointing directly at CG. Lightning flashed, and magic was unleashed!
CG waved his arms, and rich magic power instantly unfolded, crushing the surrounding magic with absolute power!
Punch, step back, knee lift, elbow, flying eagle step, spiral whirlwind kick! A series of moves were performed by CG like flowing water, no longer holding back, each move went straight to the vital point, in just a moment, the surrounding shadows fell to the ground one after another!
“come out!”
Amid the painful wails of the man in black, CG roared angrily!
But the bearded man answered him with a cold laugh: “Who gave you the illusion that you can really beat me? You think…”
“Just me!”
CG roared, no longer trying to control his magic. The magical energy rushed in wantonly, rapidly filling every inch of the surroundings!
With a bang!
The bearded man was knocked out by the surging magic power and fell to the ground!
More shadows rushed out, some performed rescue operations, some deployed defense, and more had gathered magic power again and rushed towards CG!
However, the magic circle next to it suddenly began to flicker!
The six black shadows on the edge of the magic circle turned around at the same time and turned into black mist. The black mist guarded the magic circle and began to erode the magic power escaping from CG!
CG fended off the charging black shadow and shouted mockingly, “See how much you can swallow!”
CG activated the magic again and flew towards the center of the magic circle!
But at this moment, everything seemed different!
A huge black crystal shadow enveloped Xiaopo, like a huge black hole. The crystal madly absorbed the surrounding black fog, which instantly divided into six directions. He wanted to escape in panic, but was sucked into the crystal in just a moment!
And after that, the magic power that CG filled around seemed to be within the absorption range of the black crystal!
If it’s just about absorbing magic power, CG won’t be worried!
What really worries CG is that after absorbing this magic power, cracks begin to appear on the black crystals surrounding Xiaopo, which are visible to the naked eye!
“What have you done!?” The bearded man roared like crazy and rushed over with other black shadows!
CG has no time to care about the bearded man now, because CG’s magic power is now completely out of control and rushing towards Xiaopo crazily!
CG tried hard to disconnect the magic, but no matter what CG did, it was of no use!
Seeing that the black crystal was already full of cracks, the bearded man grabbed CG, but was instantly blown away by the huge magic power!
The dark shadows raised their wands one after another, but the magic they cast, the moment it came into contact with the surrounding energy, was swallowed up by the magic power in front of the surprised gazes of the dark shadows. Then, as if rejected, the magic bounced back with even more ferocious momentum!
Bang, bang, bang, bang! One after another, black shadows flew backwards and collapsed to the ground!
“Ouch!”
The terrifying roar shocked the mountains and forests!
Chapter 42: Let Lily go, and I’ll go with you! (3) (Old version)
Is this the roar of magic? CG looked around in surprise and looked at Xiaopo uncertainly!
“Okay! Okay!” The bearded man also felt the horror of this magic power. Blood was flowing from the corner of his mouth, but he smiled like crazy: “You did a good thing! I won’t let you have the chance to harm the magic world!”
After the bearded man finished speaking, he raised his wand, and powerful magic power gathered at the tip of the wand!
“Stop!” CG roared, but his body could not move at all.
The bearded man pointed his wand and the green magic went straight towards Xiaopo!
“Stop!” CG roared. Now, neither Xiaopo nor Fengyin could withstand such a blow!
But who will listen to him now!
CG looked at the crystal in despair! A dazzling light was already seeping out from the cracks!
Maybe in the next second, the black crystal, unable to bear everything, will explode, or maybe Xiaopo will explode first!
But, Xiaopo is still there! Sombra is still there! Magic Link is still there!
The bearded man looked at everything in front of him in disbelief!
“Impossible! This is impossible!” The bearded man said ferociously, “Absolutely not! Absolutely not!”
The bearded man roared, magic surged, wand raised high, and rushed towards the center of magic like crazy!
“Destroy it, destroy it together!”
The bearded man roared, took a last look at the robe of the Supervisory Department, and crashed into the crumbling black crystal! He clasped his five fingers together and grabbed the crack. The magic condensed by the wand instantly flowed into his whole body, using his body as a medium and his life as bait! The last life-and-death struggle of the Supervisory Department! Where the mission lies, there is death or life!
More black shadows gave up attacking, and more people began to fly up!
“Stop! Stop!” CG shouted helplessly, his eyes were bloodshot, but he could do nothing! For the first time, CG hoped that someone could come to help him! Anyone would be fine! Someone come to help!
It seems like I heard the cry from CG’s heart!
“Hold on, kid!”
Green robes, square-framed glasses, Professor McGonagall raised her wand!
After a series of complicated hand gestures, powerful magic flowed along the wand in Professor McGonagall’s hand and headed straight for the black crystal!
After that, Professor Granger, Professor Flitwick, Professor Longbottom, and Professor Slughorn all raised their wands!
The magic of the five professors gathered together, like a sharp blade, slashing fiercely at the magic link!
There were no sparks flying, no strong winds blowing, and the magic connection seemed to be disconnected by itself! The dark clouds in the sky seemed to be even darker, and the surroundings seemed to be even darker!
“Impossible! How could the magic fail?!”
The bearded man flew backwards unwillingly, and the other shadows were even more so! The bearded man’s fingers were crackling, not caring at all that he was covered in blood and that his wand had already fallen out of his hand, he was still struggling to rush forward again!
But the surrounding dark shadows had taken advantage of the opportunity, taking the other movable and immobile dark shadows around, forcibly pulling the bearded man, and disappeared on the spot!
“Stop! What are you doing! Have you forgotten the spirit of the Inspectorate?” The bearded man struggled and roared frantically, beating the black shadow that was holding him with all his might!
However, it was in vain! Failed, this plan completely failed!
“Scorbing!” roared the bearded black figure.
The bearded man knew what he wanted to say. The shadow dissipated, the resentment was swallowed up, the seal was failing, and the magic was running wild! They had caused a big disaster! The magic that the five professors could not stop with their combined efforts, could more moths really put out the fire that had already been lit?
“We still have our own lives! We must kill him even if it costs us our own lives!” The bearded man roared madly, twisting his already weak body. “Do you want to watch him destroy the Ministry of Magic and the entire world in the future?”
But the black shadow just shook his head helplessly, pulled his beard, and rushed towards the evacuation point!
In the distance, magic followed the shadows! James, Albus, Scorpius, Jaina, Winice, and even Trod rushed over with their wands raised!
As for CG, he couldn’t care less anymore. The link was broken and he collapsed to the ground helplessly. Selena quickly rushed up and supported CG.
At this moment, CG sincerely felt that having companions was such a happy thing!
However, even though the shadow retreated, the crisis was not over!
Professor McGonagall, who was closest to the crystal, still had a serious look on her face, and then she shouted, “Everyone! Retreat! Quickly!”
It’s too late!
The dazzling white light in the crystal cracks is getting brighter and brighter!
Suddenly, there was a loud bang, as loud as thunder! The explosion rose, and a huge shock wave instantly surged to the surroundings! Endless white light rushed straight into the sky! The dark clouds hovering in the sky dissipated in an instant, and the lightning in the sky was still struggling, but it still couldn’t escape the fate of being reduced to ashes!
The light was rippling, that was the protective spell surrounding the castle! But it was also completely shattered by the impact of this energy!
Something happened! At this moment, everyone knew that something happened at Hogwarts!
In the forbidden forest, everyone was knocked away by the surging energy!
Several professors tried hard to cast magic to protect the children around them.
However, the huge impact is just the beginning!
The raging energy seemed to just want to escape, but in the next second, it was instantly grabbed back by an invisible big hand!
In an instant, the magic power was compressed to the extreme, and a light as hot as the sun was emitted around Xiaopo!
Everyone felt the crisis, especially CG and Selena, because they had seen this scene before!
The sound disappeared, and then there was light!
The five professors cast magic in an instant, seizing the last opportunity, and a huge amount of soil was peeled off from the ground, mixed with magic and blocked in front of everyone!
The darkest moment came, and then the light came again!
The magic power gathered to the extreme, surging out, roaring! Roaring! Sweeping everything around!
The soil mixed with magic was instantly melted by the absolute energy. Fortunately, magic power was injected into it. Under the control of the magic power of the five professors, the melted soil formed a layer of crystals, barely blocking the surging energy!
But that’s all!
The magic was raging, and everyone gathered together, trapped in this small space, unable to move a single step!
What’s even more terrifying is that cracks have begun to appear on the surface of the crystals!
Professor McGonagall was the first to react and used her magic to repair the cracks that kept appearing! But the cracks appeared too quickly, and other professors also joined in!
No one knows how long the magic will continue to wreak havoc, but everyone knows that this is not a solution!
Even if we escape the ravages of magic, what about the little thing in the core?
Subconsciously, CG looked at Selena, and there was a hint of pleading in his commanding tone: “Do something!”
But Selena just frowned!
“CG!” Hermione was the first to speak. She turned her head and looked at CG: “Is this your magic, or Xiaopo’s?”
“I……”
CG hesitated, because he didn’t know whether this was Xiaopo’s magic going wild, or after absorbing his magic!
Chapter 43: The Seal! Broken! (1) (Old Version)
Hermione noticed CG’s hesitation and raised her voice: “It’s dangerous to do this, but I still hope you can try it!”
“What should I do?” CG also roared, not letting his voice be drowned out by the roar of magic.
“Try to guide the magic. If this is your magic, it should be possible to control it!” Hermione retracted her wand and pointed it forward. The pressure on the other professors increased significantly. “I don’t know how many seconds I can buy you! Be quick!”
“Okay!” CG roared, pointing his wand forward!
“We also know how to cast a protective spell!” Selena understood what Hermione was going to do, and drew out her wand as well, looking at the others: “DA, together!”
“Get ready, count to 3!” Hermione shouted, looking at the children around her with satisfaction: “1! 2! 3!”
As soon as the words fell, Hermione turned around and was the first to put up a shield, followed by the other children. Everyone’s magic was concentrated on the protection spell, and a layer of transparent light shield was instantly held up amid the raging magic.
However, it was really only a moment!
As soon as CG raised his wand, the magic shield shattered instantly. Hermione quickly protected the other children and hid behind the cover again!
But it’s CG!
CG was instantly blown away by the surging magic power. Albus and Selena reached out their hands at the same time and barely held CG, but they were also blown away by the huge momentum. Jaina held Selena, Scorpius desperately held Albus, James grabbed Jaina and Scorpius with his big hands at the same time, and behind James, Wynnes and Trod were also trying to hold James.
Hermione, having recovered from her shock, quickly cast a spell and pulled the children back.
The other four professors looked back at everyone with lingering fear.
Fortunately, no one was injured!
The sleeve of CG’s robe was half destroyed, and only a little bit of wood was left of the magic wand in his hand. The phoenix feather was drooping in his hand, and most of the front end had been destroyed!
Everyone seemed to be beginning to despair!
Albus raised his fist and pounded it hard on the ground!
But Selena pulled CG’s hand away and looked up in surprise: “Your hand is fine!”
Hermione and CG seemed to understand it in an instant!
“Magics of the same origin cannot harm each other!” CG didn’t know whether he was looking at his own hand or the only remaining part of the magic wand in his hand!
Hope instantly ignited in Hermione’s eyes: “Help, CG!”
CG nodded firmly and slowly stretched his hand forward!
As everyone watched, CG’s hand crossed the barrier!
Faced with a huge impact, CG was well prepared. He lowered his body and his feet involuntarily moved backwards, but it was only half a step!
Most importantly, CG’s hands are fine, really fine!
In an instant, everyone seemed to see hope!
“Xiaopo! Wait for me!” CG muttered to himself, looked at the core of magic, and took a firm step forward!
Under tremendous pressure, CG’s feet sank into the mud again!
But CG still moves forward, forward, and forward!
Taking one step after another, slowly but extremely firmly!
The magic around is still raging, and everyone wants to know what’s happening outside, but except for CG, no one can even stick their heads out!
But even CG only walked a few meters in the past minute!
“If it doesn’t feel right, just go back!” Selena yelled outside.
However, everyone understands that if the feeling is not right, it may not be possible to come back!
The corners of CG’s mouth moved, and it was unclear whether he was smiling or not. Under the huge pressure of magic, even such a small movement was extremely difficult!
CG’s own magic power inadvertently seeps out bit by bit, I don’t know if it is to protect itself or because of the attraction of the surging magic power!
However, CG can no longer care about that. Now CG has to use all his strength to take every step! Let the magic overflow, as long as it does not affect his progress!
Even CG himself doesn’t know what to do to save Xiaopo in the end! But he has to go and try!
Time passes by second by second, and with every second that passes, Xiaopo’s situation becomes more dangerous!
CG was getting more and more anxious. Hurry up! Hurry up! CG shouted in his heart, trying hard to move forward!
CG felt tired. It was too tiring to be under such pressure!
Sweat flowed out unconsciously, but the moment it appeared on the skin, it was crushed by the surrounding magic power and turned into ashes, just like the seeping magic!
No!
CG suddenly looked at his own skin in surprise!
No, it’s different!
The magic was overflowing. Although it was also being destroyed by the raging magic power, it seemed that it had not disappeared! The magic power was changing!
CG carefully felt the changes in his magic. He was CG, the one who could tell the difference between moth feathers and beetle elytra! But in a storm, it was not easy to find the changes in a drop of water!
Is it difficult? Then do it!
CG tried to calm down and closed his eyes! Magic affinity plus meditation! CG didn’t believe it, he couldn’t feel it!
CG emptied his mind and no longer tried to control his body, letting the storm of magic roar in his ears!
CG was rolled up instantly!
Blow it away! Fall it down! It doesn’t matter!
CG has a hunch that as long as he can see this change clearly, he will be able to find a way to get close to the core, save Xiaopo, and stop everything!
Come on then!
CG had no other thoughts, his mind seemed to be free from his body, carefully observing the skin, which had been crushed to only an extremely thin layer of magic!
Here is all the truth!
The roar seemed to stop, and the thin layer seemed to become extremely huge in an instant.
CG clearly sees the changes on the surface!
This is! In fusion?!
The surface of the two kinds of magic is not a confrontation of knives and axes, nor is it an oppression of bone-grinding and marrow-rotting. This is!
On one side, magic power was flowing out, and on the other side, magic power was flowing in. The two magic powers seemed to be helping each other, but the runaway force was too strong, and it carried the other magic power through instantly, causing it to be pulled so thin!
This is my magic! Magic from the same source!
CG opened his eyes instantly, but his body did not move, and CG remained where he was!
Since you need it, take it!
CG covers the whole body with magic power and allows the magic power to be taken away!
In an instant, all resistance disappeared!
The magic power was still raging, the magic was still roaring! The surrounding trees were still being destroyed! Others could only hide behind the crystals and struggle!
CG! Wherever the magic goes, CG can travel freely!
It’s not Apparition! This is faster and quicker than Apparition! There’s no need to tear the space apart, everything around is your magic, your magic is already there!
If possible, CG really wants to stay in this change for a while longer, but it’s not possible, Xiaopo is still in danger!
Chapter 43: The Seal! Broken! (2) (Old Version)
CG didn’t hesitate any longer and instantly appeared beside Xiaopo.
Xiaopo was floating in the center of the energy, and countless black crystal fragments were floating around Xiaopo!
The black crystal is really broken! The seal is really gone! Xiaopo’s magic power is really going out of control!
How to stop it? CG doesn’t know!
But a subconscious thought echoed in my mind!
CG reached out his hand to Xiaopo and touched a piece of black crystal next to it. There was no way, the fragments of black crystal were too many and too dense!
But in an instant, a burning sensation came, and the magic was being devoured!
The magical power around was surging, and the magic became even more violent!
Selena’s voice came from a distance, but CG couldn’t hear what Selena was saying at all!
CG only knows that Xiaopo’s magic power has changed!
Xiaopo, who was lying peacefully in the energy center, frowned, as if he was in great pain!
CG frowned, he felt a change! The magic power around him started to get out of control! The magic power started to repel CG! The density of the magic power around him was getting bigger and bigger!
Oh no! CG’s heart skipped a beat, and he could no longer care about anything else. Even if he encountered more fragments, he had to pull the little broken thing out in the hope that he could still move in this magic!
CG grabbed Xiaopo’s arm, gritted his teeth, and tried his best!
The surrounding magic seemed to be pulled and rushed towards Xiaopo in an instant. Xiaopo’s brows frowned even deeper!
“Ah!” CG roared, using up his last bit of strength!
Finally, the little thing moved! Finally, the raging energy around it stopped!
Xiaopo opened his eyes, looked at himself in surprise, looked at CG, and looked around!
The energy that was scattered around seemed to have found its destination at this moment! It surged back instantly!
The magic power, mixed with black crystals, was pouring back just as violently as it had just erupted!
Xiaopo opened his mouth and screamed in pain, but no sound came out!
CG wanted to move forward, but was bounced far away by the huge impact of magic power and fell to the ground with a bang!
The surrounding magic power disappeared, and all the magic power gathered around Xiao Po! Gathering, condensing, and changing! A white ball of light formed, enveloping Xiao Po again!
Selena ran over and helped CG up, but CG looked at Xiaopo worriedly and struggled to rush forward!
Hermione stopped CG and looked at Xiaopo with the same worry!
Now, Xiaopo can only rely on himself!
The magic emitted a dazzling white light, peaceful and tranquil, but everyone could see the little creature in the middle struggling painfully in the air!
What is going on?
No one knew what was going on, everyone could only stare at Xiaopo in a daze!
Xiaopo struggled, twisting his body involuntarily, with a painful expression. As if noticing everyone, Xiaopo stretched out his hand from a distance, asking for help!
But no one could help, the magic power blocked everything!
Apart from!
CG lowered his head, with determination on his cold face!
CG raised his head suddenly, and the magic power dissipated. Control and everything else, go to hell!
CG raised his foot and rushed towards Xiaopo!
No one knows what will happen if they encounter that magic power?
Will he die? So what? Just consider it as paying him back what he owes!
CG’s hand touched Xiaopo, and the magic on his hand was instantly wiped out by the magic power around Xiaopo!
This time, it’s truly erased!
The professors looked at everything in amazement, because they clearly felt the powerful magic on CG just now, but such powerful magic was still wiped out in an instant!
What a powerful force this is, what a domineering force this is!
Perhaps this is worthy of being called a legend!
“CG!” Selena yelled worriedly, tears in her eyes, her body seemed to collapse, she fell to the ground, and kept muttering: “Little Broken…”
Jaina next to her quickly stepped forward to support Selena!
Just when everyone thought that CG was either bounced away or destroyed, Winice covered her mouth in surprise but excitement, pointed at CG and Xiaopo in the magic, and cried out in a crying voice: “They are fine, they are fine!”
Yes, CG and Xiaopo are fine!
The moment CG also touched the center of the magic, the magic on his body was wiped out, but CG’s hand had already reached out. The holy magic around him instantly enveloped CG!
The magic power began to swirl, and darkness began to mix into the white! The CG expression was complicated, but Xiaopo was becoming calmer!
“Impossible!” Professor Flitwick shrieked, “Holy magic brings pain, while dark magic soothes people’s hearts! This is impossible! This goes against the most basic magical theory!”
The other professors, including Headmistress McGonagall, all had puzzled expressions on their faces.
Only Hermione was muttering in surprise: “Holding the yin and the yang, the qi is in harmony!”
No one could understand it! All they knew was that Professor Granger said something incomprehensible in Chinese!
Professor McGonagall looked at Hermione, hoping for an explanation, but Hermione just shook her head and looked back at the two children who were still floating in the air.
Xiaopo had already opened his eyes and was looking around and at himself in surprise, opening his mouth to say something.
No one could hear it, but everyone could clearly see that the magic power around them was slowly fading, until the last familiar pattern slowly dissipated.
CG and Xiaopo fell to the ground, and everyone rushed over.
“Are you okay?” Selena asked hurriedly.
CG shook his head and looked at Xiaopo, who was still looking at his hands.
“I!” Xiaopo said with a hint of disbelief, raising his head to look at everyone: “I feel my own magic power!”
Everyone understands what this means!
Trod took a step back in fear and pretended to run away, but with Hermione’s encouragement, he swallowed and stayed where he was.
CG touched Xiaopo’s robe, pulled out Xiaopo’s magic wand, and held it in front of Xiaopo!
Xiaopo was stunned!
Selena spoke for everyone else, “Who is it, the Dark Lord or little Harry? Let’s see!”
Xiaopo held the wand, and it was sparking with excitement as if he had just seen it for the first time!
Xiao Po looked around, and most people gave him encouraging looks. Hermione made way for Xiao Po to perform!
The little broken wand was raised high, pointing to a piece of wood that had fallen on the ground nearby. As everyone watched, he flicked his wrist and said, “Wingardiumleviosa!”
The expected floating did not occur! The wood exploded directly! The magic continued to fly out, bouncing back and forth between the surrounding trees, rushing towards Xiaopo!
Scorpius raised his hand to raise his wand, but was stopped by the CG next to him!
Xiaopo subconsciously raised his hand and slapped it down. The shadow of black crystal emerged and the “Floating Spell” disappeared in Xiaopo’s palm.
Amid the children’s surprised gazes, Xiaopo looked at his own palms: “I seem to…”
Chapter 43: The Seal! Broken! (3) (Old Version)
“A blessing in disguise!” Hermione concluded.
“But you may have to choose a new wand,” Neville continued.
“And practice well!” Professor Flitwick added.
Professor McGonagall smiled and nodded: “It seems that we need to arrange a make-up exam for you, student Hu Xiaopo!”
“Really?” Xiaopo shouted excitedly, not sure whether it was because he was casting a spell for the first time in his life, or because he had the opportunity to retake the exam.
“This is not a place to talk. Should we send the children to Madam Pomfrey first?” Professor Slughorn suggested.
“Wait, Lily…” Xiaopo said quickly.
But Albus had already patted Little Bro’s shoulder and said, “Don’t worry, Professor Firenze has sent her to the school infirmary. Mom and Hagrid are also receiving treatment.”
“Firenze!” Xiaopo suddenly thought of what happened at the beginning.
But Professor McGonagall shook her head and said gently but unquestionably: “Go back first, you need to rest!”
No one objects, and no one will object! Xiaopo believes that Principal McGonagall must have his own ideas. Moreover, with this mess now, the professors really have a lot of things to do!
Neville waved his wand and walked in front.
The dark clouds in the sky had long dispersed, and when I walked out of the forbidden forest, the sun had already set. A ray of sunset shone down, and although I was still taking the exam in the morning, Xiaopo felt as if he had not seen the sun for a long time.
Bang, bang, bang…
In an unnamed valley not far from Hogwarts, the sounds of Apparitions breaking through the air rang out one after another!
In an instant, countless people appeared in the valley, all dressed in black, and most of them were injured!
There was another person, covered in blood, standing there, staring blankly into the distance!
Lost, they lost!
The Supervisory Department does not allow failure! Especially this kind of irreparable failure! But they failed so thoroughly this time!
Opinions from the East? Sanctions from the higher-ups? Who cares! These are already trivial matters!
The real crisis is the disaster they have caused this time!
The seal is gone, and the child’s magic is rampant! They released the prophesied demon and removed the shackles from him!
The end of the wizarding world is coming! The dark age is coming!
“What have we done?” The bearded man looked at his hands and knelt down on the ground weakly!
No one answered, no one even spoke!
A person next to him came over silently and tried to pull up the beard!
But, the bearded man still sat on the ground motionless!
“What? You’re not leaving?” A teasing voice came from a nearby tree: “If you don’t leave, we’ll be in trouble!”
The bearded man stood up suddenly, and the other people around him who could move did the same!
“Who! Come out!” Although the bearded man was unarmed, his momentum was still there!
“Here it comes!”
The teasing voice was heard again, and the big tree shook. A figure flew down from the tree. The fiery red robe was so dazzling under the setting sun!
“Um, would you mind giving me a hand?” The man in red was hanging in the air awkwardly, as if his robe was caught on a tree branch!
The bearded man’s face is full of black lines. Is he here to make people laugh?
But when the man in red raised his head, everyone could see the iconic mask clearly. He was a member of the organization!
“Capture him!” the bearded man gave the order immediately!
The surrounding shadows raised their wands and pointed them in that direction!
“No, no, no, don’t do it! Can’t I do it myself?” The man in red said as he turned over and landed lightly on the ground!
How could the man in black listen to him? He cast one magic spell after another!
The figure of the man in red flashed, and all the magic passed through his body and hit the open space behind him!
The phantom disappeared, and not far away, the man in red showed his true form: “Tsk tsk, how cruel!”
At the same time, figures wearing robes of various colors appeared in all directions around. They were of different heights, weights, and shapes. The only thing in common was that they all wore the same mask!
“Stop talking nonsense and get started!” a girl with a fiery red ponytail and only one arm ordered!
“Okay!” The man in red took the order, his voice was joking, but his actions were as loud as thunder!
The other masked men also took action, raising their wands and casting down barriers at the four corners!
The others had no more scruples, they gathered magic in their palms, leaned forward and rushed forward!
In just a moment, they started fighting with the Inspectorate!
Under normal circumstances, this might be a tough battle, as the Supervisory Department is not someone that can be easily defeated. But now…
The bearded man roared in dissatisfaction, picked up a stone from the ground, and rushed forward…
15 minutes later!
The man in red, carrying the unconscious bearded man, stood firmly!
“Lei Mu, Tietou clean up the traces, and everyone else retreat!” the one-armed girl ordered.
Everyone obeyed the order, and small magic circles rose up under everyone’s feet. White light flashed, and the magic circles and the people inside disappeared on the spot…
The two men, one tall and one short, did not leave. They raised their wands and shook them in the air to clear the remaining magic.
Five minutes later, two more white lights flashed by. The nameless valley returned to its original state, and the crimson sunset disappeared into the distance with its last ray of afterglow.
In the school infirmary, Madam Pomfrey turned on all the lights and carefully examined everyone. Fortunately, except for Lily who took medicine and went to sleep, the other children seemed to be uninjured.
Even Xiaopo and CG seem to be fine!
But Madam Pomfrey still suggested that the two stay in the school infirmary for a few days for observation. After all, after being baptized by such powerful magic, no one can guarantee that there will be no accidents.
Bang! The door of the school clinic was pushed open!
Kingsley walked in angrily! Two teams of Aurors followed behind him, but Harry, the captain of the Aurors, did not seem to be among them.
Madam Pomfrey clenched her hands and stepped forward: “Minister…”
“Where is Minerva?” Kingsley asked straight to the point without paying any attention to others!
“If you want to find the headmaster, you should go to the Forbidden Forest. They are repairing the school’s protective spell there!” Madam Pomfrey was a little nervous, but she still stood in front of Kingsley firmly: “I want to remind you that this is the school infirmary!”
“McGonagall isn’t here?” Kingsley asked with narrowed eyes, slowly pulling out his wand.
“What are you doing?!” Madam Pomfrey’s voice trembled a little.
Behind him, CG rushed forward first and pulled Madam Pomfrey behind him. With both palms gathering magic, Xiaopo followed closely behind!
The other DAs also drew their wands!
In an instant, the school clinic was tense!
“You want to rebel against the Ministry of Magic? Very good! Now I declare that you are under arrest!” Kingsley roared, pointing his wand directly at Little Bro, and shouted at the hesitant Aurors behind him: “Capture them!”
Chapter 44: DA’s Mockingjay (1) (Old Version)
“What?!” Madam Pomfrey looked at Kingsley in disbelief. Even the Aurors behind him were stunned. Tonight’s mission didn’t seem to be like this!
The other children were stunned for a moment, but Xiaopo, CG and Selena were already used to it!
In that case, let’s do it!
“What are you waiting for?” Kingsley shouted again, to the Aurors behind him: “All Aurors, get to work!”
To catch a thief, you must first catch the leader. CG flashed and rushed towards Kingsley, but Kingsley was also prepared and raised his wand!
Xiaopo didn’t have CG’s speed, but he also rushed over, raised one hand and grabbed Kingsley’s wand, in the other hand, the wand had already condensed magic!
The action has already begun. Although the Aurors are hesitant, they can no longer remain indifferent!
How could the other DAs just sit there and surrender when they saw this? They were DAs! No matter if it was Beard or Kingsley, no matter if it was the Inspectorate or the Ministry of Magic! DAs dared to say no to any powerful force!
“Scorpius! Let’s go!” Albus yelled, and rushed forward first! James followed closely behind!
Scorpius raised his wand, and Jaina and Selena protected Winness, but Winness’s face turned red, and she dodged to the side stubbornly, raising her wand: “I am a DA too!”
“Good job!” everyone was saying in their hearts!
“DA!” Selena yelled!
Madam Pomfrey subconsciously covered her mouth in horror!
But all the DAs shouted at almost the same time: “Charge!”
The next second, CG’s figure flashed and circled behind Kingsley, and the little guy who followed closely behind grabbed Kingsley’s wand, and the wand instantly went out of service. CG pressed his hand on Kingsley’s vest!
The little broken magic wand was raised high, and the anger that had been suppressed in his eyes for a whole semester was about to burst out!
Everything has its cause and effect! Now is the time to settle the accounts!
bring it on!
A shield was erected behind Xiaopo and CG. The DAs covered the two of them and faced the Aurors behind them head-on!
The strong cohesion made Kingsley moved! What’s going on? What’s wrong with these children? What’s wrong with the two children in front of me? Are they all crazy?
It had only been a few seconds since he gave the order! No one was in charge, only a slogan! DA? When did DA have such appeal? This is even more terrifying and frightening than that organization!
Everything happened so fast that Kingsley had no time to think! Besides, there was no time for him to think at this moment!
The magic power of CG and Xiaopo has been gathered! The powerful magic emits a dazzling light! The same word was shouted out by the two of them in unison!
“break!”
“Everyone! Stop!” A stern and angry voice came from the door of the school infirmary. Professor McGonagall’s face was extremely ugly in her dark green robe!
However, the magic has been exerted. This is the magic of CG and Xiaopo. When exerted with full strength, even a strong man like Kingsley spat out a mouthful of blood!
Professor McGonagall’s face darkened, and she, along with several other deans, quickly stepped forward to separate the crowd. She glanced at every Auror behind Kingsley with disappointment. After all, most of them had studied at Hogwarts.
Professor McGonagall finally stood in front of Kingsley, blocking all the children behind her: “Are you planning to go to war with Hogwarts?”
“Them!” Kingsley wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, raised his hand and pointed at the DAs, suppressing his anger: “They are suspected of resisting the Ministry of Magic, I will take them back for investigation!”
“They,” Professor McGonagall slowly drew out her wand and folded her hands elegantly in front of her, “are just students!”
“Nonsense!” Kingsley’s eyes widened, and he stared at McGonagall angrily, gritting his teeth: “They just attacked the Minister of Magic and fought against the Aurors, didn’t you see it?!”
“In the face of unfair treatment and groundless accusations, everyone has the right to …” Professor McGonagall argued.
“Enough!” Kingsley didn’t want to listen to these meaningless conversations anymore, and roared at Professor McGonagall’s face: “A battalion! A whole battalion! A whole battalion of the Inspectorate! We have completely lost contact tonight! Don’t tell me it has nothing to do with them!”
Professor McGonagall stood firmly in front of the students, without saying a word, looking at Kingsley!
“Oh?” Hermione walked to Professor McGonagall and looked at Kingsley: “What does the disappearance of the Inspectorate have to do with these children?”
Kingsley turned to look at Hermione, his eyes more angry: “They…”
“They!” Hermione interrupted, “Did they disappear in Hogwarts? Why did they appear in Hogwarts?!”
Kingsley’s teeth were chattering, and his fierce eyes seemed as if he wanted to bite someone, but he didn’t utter a word!
After a long while, Kingsley pointed to Hagrid and Ginny who were lying in the distance and were obviously seriously injured. “What happened to them?”
“This has nothing to do with you, Mr. Minister!” Hermione answered tactfully, without a single mistake.
“The Ministry of Magic has the right to ask!” Kingsley roared, turning his head to look at McGonagall! He almost lost all the backbones of the Inspectorate today!
“But the Ministry of Magic has no right to interfere in the internal affairs of Hogwarts!” Hermione took half a step forward and stood shoulder to shoulder with Professor McGonagall!
Neville and Flitwick stood up just as firmly!
Slughorn looked a little hesitant, but he still came forward: “Minister, you should…”
“Is Hogwarts going to rebel?” Kingsley roared, interrupting Slughorn.
“We are just defending the rights that Hogwarts deserves!” Hermione responded sharply.
“Good, very good! Hermione Granger! You’re good!” Kingsley suppressed his anger and glared at Hermione. If the person behind him wasn’t an Auror, if the people from the Inspectorate could see the light! Kingsley regretted it again, but maybe there would be no chance in the future, because the Inspectorate was already in danger…
“Thank you, I’m fine!” Hermione raised her head.
Kingsley held his head and felt dizzy!
The Auror next to him hurried over to support Kingsley. Kingsley managed to stand and waved his hand: “Go find Firenze!”
“I’m always here, Minister!” In a corner near the window, Firenze walked slowly towards them, stamping his hooves under everyone’s gaze.
“Firenze it…” Xiaopo came close to Hermione, gently pulled Hermione’s sleeve, and said in a low voice.
“Professor Firenze!” Hermione corrected, indicating that Little Bro was fine.
Firenze’s sapphire eyes also looked over at Xiaopo. The moment their eyes met Xiaopo’s, Xiaopo saw Firenze’s smile from the bottom of his heart.
Xiaopo didn’t understand what this smile meant, but he subconsciously felt relieved.
“Firenze!” Kingsley turned his head and looked at Firenze: “Tell me what happened tonight?!”
Chapter 44: DA’s Mockingjay (2) (Old Version)
“An accident happened tonight!” Firenze replied melodiously.
“Tell me clearly! What accident happened?” Kingsley was anxious, but he had no way to deal with the centaurs.
“Mars is unusually bright tonight, which has a significant impact on other stars, as well as Jupiter and Mercury…” Firenze pushed open a window next to him and pointed to the sky.
“Speak human language!” Kingsley lost control of his emotions again and interrupted Firenze, then suppressed his anger and said, “Speak something we can understand!”
“The creatures in the Forbidden Forest became violent under the influence of the planet and attacked the children!” Firenze didn’t care, turned around and explained patiently.
“Bullshit!” Kingsley roared angrily. How could he not know the plan? The reason why those monsters rioted was because of the centaurs’ driving them away and the potion from the Inspectorate, but he couldn’t say that!
“It’s true. A child was taken away, and the other children who went to rescue him were trapped. Ginny and Hagrid were injured while protecting the students…” Firenze talked freely.
“Enough!” Kingsley’s wand flashed with lightning, and he glared at Firenze: “Is this the loyalty of you centaurs? Is your tradition to deceive?!”
“The tradition of the Centaurs is to follow the guidance of the stars, and we…” Firenze said, looking at Hermione, whether intentionally or unintentionally: “We have always been loyal to Hogwarts!”
“Good! Very good! You are good! You centaurs are good!” Kingsley muttered again.
Firenze saluted gracefully, her long golden hair hanging down, seeming to shine like stars: “You have no need to be angry. If you can calmly look at the sky, you can find that the three stars are already clear, but are beginning to separate! Although Mars is still approaching, it is slowly dimming! I don’t know what destruction and darkness you are talking about, but things are developing in a good direction! What you should worry about is the deviation of the main star and the twinkling of the stars in the east! The ecliptic plane has begun to deflect, and you should make your own choice!”
“What do you want to say?” Kingsley’s angry expression subsided, but his tone was still unfriendly: “Aren’t we working hard for a better life now? Is the Ministry of Magic’s Inspectorate doing something meaningless now?”
“Of course not!” Firenze answered straightforwardly: “Some of the actions of the Inspectorate are admirable, but unfortunately, the main star has shifted…”
“So what are you trying to say?” Kingsley glared at Firenze.
“I’ve said everything I wanted to say.” Firenze bowed to Professor McGonagall and walked out the door.
“Stop! In my capacity as minister…” Kingsley turned and yelled at Firenze. Kingsley did not look down on the centaurs, but how dare he attack a mere centaur!
“Minister,” Professor McGonagall walked up to Kingsley, calmed down, and then said, “Kingsley!”
Kingsley was stunned. It seemed that Professor McGonagall had not called him like this for a long time!
Kingsley retracted his gaze and looked at Professor McGonagall seriously: “If you have anything to say, just say it, Headmaster McGonagall!”
Professor McGonagall shook her head helplessly: “I am very angry about what Scoobing did in school tonight. I don’t believe that you are unaware of what he did. However, in the face of crisis, I don’t want to pursue it further. I hope you can also put aside your prejudice and take a good look at the current situation. Light and darkness are only a thought away. Do you want to create a dark future with your own hands?”
“The entire Inspectorate has disappeared! Headmaster McGonagall!” Kingsley roared at Professor McGonagall!
“Your Inspectorate has been safely evacuated from Hogwarts!” Professor McGonagall raised her voice and said majestically, “This is the biggest concession Hogwarts has ever made! That’s all I have to say, take care of yourself! You can go!”
After saying that, Professor McGonagall turned around, not wanting to see Kingsley and the Aurors who were accomplices again!
“Hogwarts must give an explanation to the Ministry of Magic today! I don’t mind inviting every school director to come overnight!” Kingsley roared: “All Aurors!”
“Kingsley, are you crazy?” Professor McGonagall turned around again angrily!
But the Aurors have already moved!
“Take another step forward!” Hermione’s face was gloomy. She drew out her wand and stood in front of all the Aurors!
CG appeared next to Hermione in an instant. Xiaopo was stunned for a moment, but his reaction was a little slow, and then he stood on the other side of Hermione!
Selena, Albus, James, Scorpius, Jaina, and even Winice drew their wands almost at the same time!
The other three professors quickly grabbed the children and stood in front of the children!
“See it! You all saw it!” Kingsley stared at each child with cold eyes, his face full of anger: “These are the students you taught! They…”
“They are brave and fearless!” Professor McGonagall raised her head proudly!
“They are against the Ministry of Magic!” Kingsley glared angrily, his fingers trembling with excitement as he pointed at the children who had pulled out their wands!
“So what?!” Hermione turned her head and looked at Kingsley with a gloomy face: “If you are really doing the right thing, why do these Aurors behind you look so conflicted? What are they hesitating about?!”
Kingsley turned his head angrily and glared at the Aurors behind him!
The Aurors lowered their heads involuntarily!
“I do this for the entire wizarding world!” Kingsley roared, not knowing whether his anger was directed at Hermione or the Auror behind him!
“So you can do whatever you want?” Hermione raised her voice and shouted at the Auror in front of her!
The Aurors lowered their heads even lower!
Kingsley grabbed the nearest Auror by the collar and pulled him to his side, glaring at the man with gritted teeth, but in the Auror’s eyes, he still only saw hesitation!
Kingsley pushed the Auror away and cursed fiercely: “Waste! All waste!”
Hermione slowly retracted her wand and helped the Auror up. Hermione did not know these Aurors. After all, it had been nearly ten years since she resigned as Director of the Department of Magical Enforcement, and it was impossible for Kingsley to bring those old Aurors to carry out the mission.
However, Hermione was still relieved. After all, these young Aurors still had a bottom line in their hearts!
“Thank you, thank you…” the Auror said in an inaudible voice.
Hermione didn’t answer. Any answer would only bring trouble to the young Auror!
“Let the Inspectorate handle this kind of thing in the future!” Hermione turned to Kingsley and said, “Let the Inspectorate handle this kind of thing in the future!”
“Good! Very good! All of you! Good! Very good!” Kingsley turned around, pointing his fingers at one person after another. He didn’t know how many times he said this tonight!
None of the Aurors dared to look up, no one dared to speak, and no one even dared to make any movement!
“But I’m still the Minister of Magic!” Kingsley suddenly changed the subject and turned to look at Professor McGonagall: “Can you afford the consequences of today?!”
Chapter 44: DA’s Mockingjay (3) (Old Version)
“Hogwarts!” Professor McGonagall took a firm step forward: “Never afraid of any threat!”
“Besides, it’s not Hogwarts’ fault!” Hermione added, standing firmly next to Professor McGonagall again.
“You took him in!” Kingsley raised his finger and pointed at Little Po, shouting at the top of his lungs!
Professor McGonagall gently pushed Kingsley’s hand away and said in a calm tone, “Didn’t you know that he was going to Hogwarts?”
“But you have been shielding him and stopping the Ministry of Magic?!” Kingsley looked at Professor McGonagall, his voice not lowered at all!
“Because he is innocent! Is what you did fair to him?” Professor McGonagall raised her voice again!
“Since he was burdened with that prophecy, he is no longer innocent! There is no fairness!” Kingsley roared, but after he roared, he realized the inappropriateness of his words. However, the words have been spoken, and it is hard to take them back!
Xiao Po looked at Kingsley in surprise. Is this the attitude of the Ministry of Magic? ! This is the source of everything? ! This is the root of other people’s fear, discrimination, isolation and hostility towards him? !
“Ridiculous! This is ridiculous!” Selena sneered and muttered, her voice so soft that no one paid attention, but Selena suddenly exploded and shouted at Kingsley: “Just because you are afraid! Come on, kill him!”
Professor Flitwick grabbed Selena, patted her shoulder and comforted her. Professor Flitwick might be the only one who knew the reason for Selena’s outburst. After all, Luna was also in Ravenclaw back then, and Luna was also the one who was isolated because of her peculiarity!
“They’re already doing it! Rumors can kill people!” Scorpius used the same mocking tone, tears welling up in the corners of his eyes, and he became more and more excited as he spoke: “Because of a prophecy, because of a legend, how many more people does the Ministry of Magic want to destroy!? Do you remember how my mother died?”
Albus patted Scorpius’ arm. Professor Slughorn took a deep breath and turned away helplessly, with a hint of sadness in his mournful eyes.
The atmosphere suddenly became gloomy, and a sense of sadness spread in the school infirmary!
CG raised his head and glared at Kingsley, the hatred in his eyes was beyond words!
Xiaopo raised his head, and so did Selena!
Scorpius wiped away his tears and glared at them, then Albus, Wynnes, and everyone else, including the professors!
Slowly, CG raised his hand that had been freed of magic, put his thumb on his little finger and retracted his palm, then put his index finger, middle finger and ring finger together and raised them high to the sky!!!
One little hand after another was raised, with the same gesture, the same action. Even Lily, who was lying on the hospital bed and seemed to have woken up because of the quarrel just now, raised her hand with great effort!
Mockingjay!
Professor McGonagall was stunned! Hermione was stunned! The professors looked at the children in surprise! Madam Pomfrey covered her mouth in horror!
Kingsley stood there in a daze. The Aurors had already raised their wands and were looking around, not knowing what to do!
I don’t know who took the lead first! The sound of stomping feet rang out! Neat, loud, and powerful! One after another!
Professor McGonagall quickly stood in front of Kingsley: “Kingsley, you should go!”
Kingsley finally reacted, pushed Professor McGonagall away, and shouted with a weird expression: “All Aurors! Arrest them all!”
“Stop!” Professor McGonagall ignored Kingsley’s rudeness and opened her arms to block all the Aurors!
Hermione whipped out her wand!
The other professors and Madam Pomfrey tried hard to stop all the children!
The stomping of feet was not chaotic at all, and no one put down their raised hands! Pairs of eyes filled with dissatisfaction and resentment stared at Kingsley!
“What are you standing there for? Get started!” Kingsley had already raised his wand!
No one moved, CG and Xiaopo stood in front of everyone!
Selena bypassed the protection of the professors and stood side by side with CG and Xiaopo!
Scorpius and Albus bypassed Slughorn, Wyneth bypassed Neville, and Jaina and James bypassed Flitwick and Madam Pomfrey!
Lily struggled to get out of bed, and under the gaze of Ginny who had also woken up, she walked forward slowly but firmly!
Trod hesitated, but still gritted his teeth and followed!
All the children lined up in a row. No one cast a spell, no one defended themselves, and no one even drew out their wands. They just raised their hands high and stomped their feet in unison!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The neat and powerful voice stirred everyone’s heart!
Although the Aurors had already drawn their wands, no one took a step forward!
Even Kingsley, with his wand raised high, did not move!
This is Hogwarts! The students in front of me are from Hogwarts! There are Malfoy children, Scamander children, and even Potter children, three of them!
Should we deal with the leading CG alone, or with the little guy in the prophecy?
Stop it, why are they standing in a row? If you touch any one of them, it’s the same as touching all of them!
This is no longer a simple DA! The influence of these children is enough to affect the entire Yron magic world!
For the first time, Kingsley felt pressure from these children!
But Kingsley is also a man who has experienced blood and rain, and struggled through the dark ages!
It took only a moment for him to regain his composure, and he pointed his wand straight forward: “Final warning! Put your hands down!”
“Children! Put your hands down!” Professor McGonagall’s voice was filled with anxiety and worry!
But no one let go, no one even stopped! The stomping sound continued!
A creaking sound was heard, and Hagrid slowly woke up. His huge body made the three beds beneath him shake. He opened his mouth wide, looking at the scene in front of him in surprise!
Ginny also sat up and held the wand steadily!
“Kingsley, you’d better go!” Hermione never put down her wand, and there was no emotion in her voice.
“Hand over the leader CG and that Hu Xiaopo to me! I can let the others go!” Kingsley roared and stated the conditions!
No one answered, no one stopped!
“I’ll count to three!” Kingsley’s face became uglier and snarled, “1…”
Kingsley turned his head in surprise and looked behind him!
Under tremendous pressure! A certain young Auror couldn’t handle the pressure and failed!
The magic flew out and hit Xiaopo’s chest!
Black crystals emerged and offset most of the magic, but Xiaopo still flew backwards in pain!
Chapter 44: DA’s Mockingjay (4) (Old Version)
“Stop!” Hagrid’s rough roar drowned out all the noise. Ignoring the pain in his body, he strode towards the Auror!
Hermione roared angrily and blasted magic spells one after another, heading straight for Kingsley!
Selena and Winice rushed towards Xiaopo!
The other kids pulled out their wands!
CG opened his hands and two red dragons rushed straight to the ceiling!
Ginny tore off the bandages on her body and rushed into the battle with her wand raised!
Kingsley and the Aurors also used magic to fight back! Misunderstanding or not, there is no time to worry about it!
Magic was flying everywhere and the scene was in chaos!
The professors tried their best to protect the children!
“Kingsley, tell your men to stop!” Professor McGonagall shouted!
“Hand over those two kids!” Kingsley roared. Dealing with Hermione and Ginny at the same time, even for Kingsley himself, the pressure was great!
“Don’t you understand the situation yet?!” Hermione said coldly, “The person that Headmaster McGonagall is trying to save is you!”
“Bullshit! I’m the Minister, I represent the Ministry of Magic!” Kingsley roared, yelling into the darkness: “Inspectorate!”
Kingsley didn’t want to use the last few people, but the situation did not allow Kingsley to think so much!
Amid the chaos, the sound still traveled far away!
In the darkness, several dark shadows suddenly jumped up!
Unlike the Aurors, the shadows’ magic was merciless, and they fired straight at the children! They were the Inspectorate!
“How dare you!” Hagrid was completely furious. He showed no mercy and swung his huge fists at the black figures!
“Stop! Otherwise!” Professor McGonagall’s eyes were also filled with anger. Around the school infirmary, statues and armors instantly joined the battle!
But at this moment, Kingsley, who had been blinded by bloodlust, seemed to have completely lost his mind!
No, perhaps it was precisely because he still retained his sanity that he could not retreat!
He might lose the war, but he could put the blame on these people. Kingsley didn’t believe that these people would really kill him!
But if they retreat, the authority of the Ministry of Magic will be completely destroyed!
This is politics! It’s not about right or wrong! It’s just a matter of interests!
In that case, let’s fight! Hogwarts will protect its students no matter what!
The ground shook! In the distant castle, statues and armors were lined up, holding their swords high, and rushing towards the school infirmary! ! !
The other professors and children in the castle were all excited when they saw this scene! No one knew what happened exactly? They only knew that tonight in the direction of the Forbidden Forest, they saw soaring magic, and now, the highest guardian spell of Hogwarts!
“Protect Hogwarts!”
I don’t know who was the first to shout out this slogan!
The professors who remained in the castle could no longer control the situation. One after another, the enthusiastic students rushed out with their wands raised high, following the statues!
The school gate was pushed open!
However, it was not a protective spell, but Kingsley called more Aurors! Tonight, he can’t lose!
The students rushed out of the castle following the statue, wanting to protect Hogwarts! However, the school gate was opened! It was Kingsley calling for reinforcements!
A large number of Aurors rushed into the venue and stopped those who wanted to rush over!
The students didn’t buy it. Magic flashed in the night sky of Hogwarts! Even the elderly Filch raised his mop and faced the Auror in front of him! In the valley in the distance, there was even a roar of a giant! That was Grawp!
This is Hogwarts! No one can shake Hogwarts! Not even Voldemort! Not even the Ministry of Magic!
Amid the excitement of the crowd, only one person can calm the situation!
That’s right, Harry Potter appears!
Harry promised in front of all the teachers and students that he would protect Hogwarts and give everyone a satisfactory answer!
Finally, the students were calmed down before the situation really got out of control!
But the battle in the school infirmary continues!
Ginny and Trod were lying on the ground, with Lily and Madam Pomfrey guarding them. Hagrid was bleeding, and Albus and Scorpius were also injured! But no one retreated! This time, Trod rushed to the front! Now it was his turn to protect his companions!
No, DA never needs to be protected by anyone else, they just help each other! Beside Xiaopo, there is CG, Selena, and every DA!
At first, the professors wanted to control the situation, but after seeing all the vicious magic of the Inspectorate, the professors got really angry!
Slughorn even took the lead and rushed towards the shadows! With the full efforts of the professors and children! The Aurors found that they really still had a lot of skills to learn!
Aurors fell one after another! Kingsley and the last few Aurors and the staff of the Inspectorate were struggling to hold on!
Finally, reinforcements arrived! Aurors rushed into the school infirmary one after another!
CG rushed forward first and raised his hand to seal the door of the school infirmary!
But in the next second, the door of the school infirmary was completely shattered by the magic of several people!
“Stop!” Harry’s stag patronus rushed forward, trying to separate the crowd! But it was completely shattered by the chaotic magic around it!
Maybe Harry could stop the many students in the castle! But here!
As long as Kingsley doesn’t stop, there’s no way he’ll stop!
“Albus! James! Stop!” Harry rushed forward with a group of Aurors, shouting loudly: “Hermione! Stop! Professor! Stop! Kingsley! Stop! Everyone stop!”
However, no one stopped!
Only Lily responded to Harry, crying, “Dad! They knocked Mom out!”
What?!
Harry was stunned, and stopped where he was! He glared at Kingsley fiercely! But Harry also understood that he was an Auror! He had to stop this fight that was destined to have no winner!
“Stop!” Harry struggled in pain, shouting and stood beside Kingsley!
“Harry, go away! Don’t be an accomplice! Don’t help the evil!” Hermione yelled, raising her hand and casting another spell at Kingsley!
CG rushed forward but bypassed Harry, with contempt on his face: “Get out of the way!”
Harry’s image was shattered, and the faces of the children in the field were all filled with disappointment!
“Dad, what are you thinking about?” Albus shouted anxiously!
The magic came and went straight to Albus. James quickly pushed Albus away, but James fell back in front of Harry and Albus’ surprised eyes!
Harry grabbed the Inspector who cast a spell on his child and said, “What did you do!”
“Put aside your morality!” The Inspector opened Harry’s hand: “This is for justice!”
Chapter 45: We are the bad guys, but you have to take the blame! (1) (Old version)
“Put aside your morality!” The Inspector opened Harry’s hand and said, “This is for justice!”
Harry was stunned, struggling internally, and turned his head away with a painful expression!
“I kill you!”
From behind, Albus’s angry voice came!
Harry gritted his teeth, turned around in pain, and raised his wand firmly: “Albus, stop!”
Albus stared blankly at the wand pointed in front of him. How could his father be so stupid?
A magic fell from the sky and headed straight for Albus!
Harry raised his wand without hesitation to block the magic and protect Albus!
“Hahahaha!” The unbridled laughter resounded throughout the entire school infirmary!
Everyone subconsciously looked in the direction of the sound!
“Why are you guys fighting among yourselves? Tsk tsk! It’s quite lively!” A teasing voice sounded at the door. A red robe, a signature mask, and it was another member of the organization!
“I knew it! I knew it!” Kingsley roared wantonly, “I knew Hogwarts was in collusion with that organization! Hermione Granger! I wonder how you can deny it!”
“What nonsense are you talking about?” Hermione cursed with a frown!
“How else can they get into Hogwarts?” Kingsley’s face was filled with excitement! He had been waiting for this opportunity for too long!
However……
“Um, sorry! I may disappoint you, Mr. Minister!” The red-robed man interrupted a little embarrassedly, and appeared beside Harry in a flash. He raised his hand and pointed at Harry carefully: “I followed them in!”
Everyone looked at the man in red robe in surprise. After all, Harry was standing next to Kingsley. At such a close distance, anything could happen!
The people from the Inspectorate immediately pulled Kingsley back!
Harry raised his wand! Almost at the same time, all the Aurors pointed their wands at the red robe!
The man in red robe was not in a hurry. He grabbed Harry’s wrist and shook his finger “tsk tsk”!
But Albus next to him had already rushed out!
With his feet nimble and steady, he cast a disarming spell at the man in red robe from an extremely tricky angle: “Let go of my dad!”
The red robed man’s expression changed visibly. He was not impressed by the Aurors, but this kid’s footwork?
The red-robed figure flashed, and the magic passed through his body and exploded in the distance!
When the man in red robe appeared again, he was sitting on the beam with his legs crossed: “Tsk tsk, Hogwarts should not be underestimated!”
“What do you want to do?” Harry blocked Albus behind him and pointed his wand at the red robe.
“Let me tell you something. Actually, those people from the Inspectorate were arrested by us,” the man in red robe paused, with a playful look on his face, and glanced at everyone in the field: “We arrested them!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a huge amount of specially processed Floo powder was scattered into the air!
In the school infirmary, outside the castle, in Hogsmeade, the Ministry of Magic Square, the Leaky Cauldron, and even the East Coast External Affairs Department and the Great Hall of the Magical Congress of M Country!
At almost the same time, in every major gathering place for wizards, magic flickered, and Floo powder burned instantly, and in it appeared! It was the bearded man, with a face that was distorted by anger!
“Let me go!” the bearded man roared. There were masked figures standing beside him, but the one who paid attention to him was the man in red robe who was standing on the beam.
“Of course! But…” said the man in red robe.
“Stop! What are you doing?” Kingsley said uncalmly, pointing his wand at the bearded image and casting a spell!
The red-robed man flicked his wand and easily blocked the magic. He looked at Kingsley with a smile and said, “Don’t miss it. This is a global live broadcast!”
Kingsley seemed to realize that the situation was not good, but there seemed to be no better solution at the moment, so he roared, “What on earth do you want to do!?”
The red-robed man shook his finger: “We will be the bad guys, but you have to bear the blame!”
“What nonsense are you talking about?” Kingsley’s ominous premonition became stronger and stronger, and he shouted to the Inspectorate: “Catch him for me!”
The magic was cast, and the figure of the Inspectorate moved at the sound, and then the next second, the figure of the man in red robe disappeared out of thin air!
“It’s so beautiful and wonderful!” The voice came from far away. No one knew how the man in red robe did it. No one in Hogwarts could Apparate!
Kingsley couldn’t dwell on this too much, because in the video, the bearded man had been fed a truth serum by the organization!
“Stop! Turn off this communication!” Kingsley roared and pointed his wand into the air!
Harry dodged and blocked Kingsley!
“Harry Potter!” Kingsley roared!
“Live broadcast worldwide! How much can you stop?!” Hermione laughed at the side!
At this moment, the bearded man’s statement has already begun!
For a moment, it seemed that all wizards in the world were quiet. They heard the bearded man’s self-introduction, understood the main functions of the Inspectorate, and tonight’s actions!
The organization gave the Ministry of Magic enough face. They asked questions very restrainedly! They only asked about the names and goals of previous actions, but did not ask in detail about the process of any action! No matter how famous or sensational those actions were! After all, the organization did not want to destroy Country Y! The Ministry of Magic of Country Y could not bear the anger of so many countries at the same time!
But the wizards were still boiling after hearing it! They learned about the conspiracy of the Inspectorate, the conspiracy against the children, destroying Hogwarts, kidnapping students, colluding with evil spirits, driving monsters, and using any means at any cost, even selling out the interests of Country Y! And this was just this one action!
With so many actions being named, how many other shady things has the Ministry of Magic done?
All in all, it seems like everything makes sense!
Why is cooperation becoming more frequent, and why other countries offer so many concessions! That is in exchange for the interests of the people!
All the gossips from the past have been turned up, and no one knows which ones are true and which ones are false! The only thing that is clear is that the Ministry of Magic can no longer gain the trust of the people!
In an instant, countless wizards appeared in front of the hall of the Ministry of Magic and picked up their protest banners again!
Many people have almost forgotten when the last protest of this scale took place, eight, nine, or ten years ago?
It doesn’t matter anymore. What matters is that the Inspectorate must be liquidated and the Ministry of Magic must give an explanation!
Messages came in from the school directors, asking Professor McGonagall about the situation at Hogwarts. After learning that Kingsley was at Hogwarts, they all said they would come immediately!
However, Kingsley no longer has time for Hogwarts’ opinions!
The main magic leaders of different countries expressed strong dissatisfaction with the Yron Ministry of Magic almost at the same time, and demanded an immediate meeting! They demanded that the secret operations against various countries be stopped and all relevant information be handed over!
Hermione looked out the window and sighed: “The weather is going to change…”
Chapter 45: We are the bad guys, but you have to take the blame! (2) (Old version)
The Floo powder burned out, and the image disappeared in the air. Kingsley’s changeable face showed no emotion!
The few people in the Supervisory Department disappeared without a trace long ago!
Kingsley didn’t say anything else, put away his wand, and hurried out the door!
The Aurors followed closely behind. Harry hurriedly told Albus and Hermione to take good care of Ginny, James and Lily, then followed!
“Just leaving? Tsk tsk. According to convention, don’t we have to fight again?” The teasing voice sounded again. But this time, the one who spoke was just a whisper from one of the Aurors. He was no longer wearing a flaming red robe, and there was no mask on his face. No matter how you looked at it, he was just an ordinary Auror.
No one tried to stop it, and the statue returned to its original position. Madam Pomfrey looked after the children, and Professor McGonagall walked towards the castle worriedly, not knowing whether it was because of the Ministry of Magic or because she wanted to comfort the students!
Hermione rubbed each child’s head with satisfaction and pride, and stayed in front of Little Pooh for an especially long time.
Hermione specifically told Selena: “The Quibbler should keep a low profile recently. There are many people who would take advantage of others’ misfortunes, but the Quibbler is not going to make unnecessary sacrifices.”
“So what? We are the DA!” Selena said proudly.
Yes, they are the DA! In that case, let these kids do whatever they want. After all, even if the Inspectorate really wants to retaliate, there is still the organization standing in the way!
Hermione smiled and shook her head, then hurried to the castle with several other professors.
Albus still kept his head down, he couldn’t understand why his father would actually point his wand at him!
Scorpius patted Albus on the shoulder: “When you were in danger, he protected you first, didn’t he? After all, he is the head of the Aurors, it’s his duty, forget it!”
Albus nodded, but he didn’t know how much he had heard.
All the children were injured to varying degrees this time, and at Madam Pomfrey’s request, they all rested in the school infirmary for one night.
Little Po was lying on the windowsill, looking at the sky. Amid Hagrid’s snoring, he raised his hands from time to time, feeling the flow of magic in his body, and thinking back to the prophecies that Professor Granger had said. I really don’t know if this is a good thing or a bad thing.
“Of course it is!” CG replied.
Xiaopo did not hide it. After all, everyone would subconsciously pay attention to Xiaopo’s actions. When someone asked, Xiaopo naturally told them. After all, they were DAs and they were friends!
“Come on, look at what happened in Hogwarts and the Ministry of Magic after he recovered?!” Trod had woken up a long time ago under the care of Madam Pomfrey.
“Can’t you just shut up?” Albus was still in a bad mood.
Scorpius quickly took a piece of chocolate and stuffed it into Albus’ mouth with a smile on his face.
Trod lay down again dissatisfied and pulled the quilt over his head!
But the next second, it was opened heavily by someone!
“What? Do you want to fight?” Trod cursed angrily, but then he realized that it was Selena who pulled off his quilt.
Selena held a golden Galleon in front of Trod’s eyes: “Do you want it?”
Trod sat up awkwardly and wanted to refuse, but looking at the smiling faces around him, Trod hesitated!
Albus glanced away but said nothing.
“I’ll make it clear in advance,” Trod tried to act nonchalant. “Even if I join, I’ll just be a supervisor! If Xiaopo shows up even for a moment…”
“So do you want it or not?” Selena interrupted impatiently.
Trod looked over and saw Xiaopo smiling and nodding, not caring at all about what Trod had just said.
Trod took the fake Galleon awkwardly, and then he noticed the difference on the Galleon. “Discipline”, two eye-catching words were printed on the Galleon!
“Since you are so worried, you will be in charge of the DA’s discipline from now on! No matter who it is in the DA, as long as you find someone behaving improperly or bullying others, you have the right to report it! We will definitely investigate it thoroughly, how do you think?” Selena continued.
Trod did not answer, his eyes swept over Xiaopo, CG and Albus in turn!
Laughter rang out, and Trod kept snickering and turned his head away.
Albus rolled his eyes in dissatisfaction, not knowing whether it was because of Trod’s look or because he was still entangled in Harry’s matter. James shouted for Scorpius to beat Albus for him, and Lily agreed, while Scorpius just laughed beside him.
Winice lay quietly aside, watching the boys’ mischief.
“Childish,” Jaina commented with disdain, then picked up the magazine next to her and started reading something.
Xiaopo looked out the window again, so, is it good or bad?
CG came closer and looked up at the sky: “Can you find the star that belongs to you?”
Selena also came over and said disdainfully: “Come on, this is not the Starry Sky Classroom.”
“Over there,” CG pointed nonchalantly at the three bright spots gathered in the distance, “That should be you!”
Xiaopo looked over there very seriously, and it seemed that the three bright spots were becoming brighter and brighter.
“Three stars is not a good sign!” Selena also lay on the edge of the bed, and the three children looked at the sky side by side.
“How do you know?” Xiaopo asked curiously.
“Of course!” Selena said calmly, “I also know that among the three, the other one must be me!”
“Really?” Xiaopo asked!
Selena punched Xiaopo on the head: “Who else could it be?!”
Ginny was badly injured and leaned on the pillow, but she was still relieved when she looked at the children. This is what a DA should be like! What’s more, Lily is fine, James is fine, and Albus is fine. We are really lucky tonight! I just don’t know how Harry is doing at the Ministry of Magic.
In the school clinic, the children could finally relax. But the professors were extremely busy that night. After comforting the students, they hurried to the principal’s office. After all, there were too many things to sort out.
Changes in the Ministry of Magic are inevitable. Will Hogwarts’ actions tonight be implicated?
“We are the victims!” Neville emphasized.
But Hermione shook her head: “Kingsley will definitely involve us and the organization to distract people’s attention. Little Bro will definitely be pushed to the forefront again. The fear of Little Bro can overwhelm everything!”
“I am willing to prove it for my little classmate.” Professor Slughorn made a rare statement, especially regarding the Ministry of Magic: “The Ministry of Magic has gone too far this time. If they really do this, I will tell every one of my students everything through my channels!”
“I can prove it!” Professor Flitwick said, “Little Po’s performance throughout the school year is enough to prove his bravery and integrity!”
Chapter 46 The Dust Settles (1) (Old Version)
Hermione smiled and nodded, “Yes, Professor, we can all prove it, but no one will believe it. Think about why, even after so long, so many people outside the campus still look at me like that. Even though the students who leave year after year are willing to prove it for me, as long as the Ministry of Magic says I am a threat, fear will overwhelm everything. The same is true for Xiaopo.”
“Perhaps,” Professor McGonagall raised her head slowly, “this can be an opportunity.”
“Change people’s opinions? Or change the Ministry of Magic?” As a former politician, Hermione knew politics too well: “It’s useless, Kingsley…”
“Kingsley,” Professor McGonagall interrupted, “It will be difficult for Kingsley to survive this crisis without the support of Hogwarts! The credibility of the Ministry of Magic will drop to the bottom. Hogwarts has the influence! Kingsley should learn to respect and compromise!”
The principals in the photo frames also nodded in agreement!
Hermione nodded thoughtfully, but then shook her head: “But he is still Kingsley. When he is in crisis…”
“If he really does that!” Professor McGonagall put her hands on the desk and stood up, her eyes firm and resolute: “Then I think the Minister of Magic should really be replaced!”
Everyone looked at Professor McGonagall in surprise. This was not something Professor McGonagall would say!
Professor McGonagall responded to several professors with a firm gaze: “Instead of watching the Yron wizarding world gradually degenerate, Hogwarts should stand up and do something!”
“Minerva,” Professor Dumbledore reminded from behind his crescent-shaped glasses, “I think you should know that Hogwarts should not be involved in politics.”
Professor McGonagall looked at Dumbledore and said, “Of course, Albus. But if the darkness really comes, can Hogwarts remain immune? If there hadn’t been the battle at Hogwarts, perhaps Voldemort’s men would still be sitting in the Minister’s office now! Facing the darkness, Hogwarts has an obligation to do so. Are we no better than those children?”
Dumbledore in the photo frame smiled at his former colleague and bowed slightly: “You have successfully convinced me, Minerva. DA, I really miss you.”
Professor McGonagall smiled, sat back in her chair, and looked at Hermione: “Are Rose and Hugo all right?”
“Them,” Hermione fixed her hair with a smile on her face, “I haven’t contacted them for a long time.”
Professor McGonagall nodded, as if recalling what happened back then: “They are good!”
The other three professors also agreed, but they didn’t know why the principal mentioned them at this time.
“If they are willing, I would be happy to invite them back to the school to visit.” Professor McGonagall said vaguely.
Perhaps among the professors present, only Hermione truly understood what this meant.
Hermione nodded but said nothing.
“Also, regarding CG,” Professor McGonagall changed the subject, “He’s a good kid, but he needs guidance. What happened tonight… Oh, the Ministry of Magic will definitely keep an eye on him!”
“I understand,” Hermione nodded, “I’ll pay more attention, but I believe that with his abilities, he will have no problem protecting himself.”
“I hope so.” A flash of worry passed across Professor McGonagall’s face.
What happened that night was destined to never bring peace!
Even the children understood this, so they laughed and played. But after the DAs returned to their respective beds, it seemed that everyone had insomnia!
The curtain in the school infirmary separated each person’s bed into an independent room. Xiaopo lay on the bed, thinking about everything. He didn’t know what time it was before he fell into a deep sleep!
Once again, Xiaopo dreamed of the Forbidden Forest, and dreamed that he was looking for something in the Forbidden Forest again! And this time, Xiaopo really found it. It was the third holy artifact, which Xiaopo stuffed into Lily’s arms and was left in the Forbidden Forest by Lily. Invisibility Cloak.
Xiaopo suddenly woke up and hastily opened the curtain. The bright sunlight made it difficult for Xiaopo to open his eyes. But Xiaopo still rushed to CG’s bed and pulled open the curtain!
Crash!
As if it was a chain reaction, the sound of curtains being hastily drawn open could be heard one after another!
“What’s wrong?”
“Are you okay?”
“What happened?”
The DAs looked over anxiously, and Albus even took out his wand and rushed over!
“What’s wrong?” CG was also awakened and sat up quickly, still wearing the hospital gown given by Madam Pomfrey.
CG was still in bed, still wearing a hospital gown. Maybe this time, it really was just a dream.
Xiaopo scratched his head awkwardly: “I seem to have had a nightmare!”
“Are you really okay?” Albus asked, still a little worried.
Little Bro nodded and looked at Albus embarrassedly: “I just suddenly remembered that I left your invisibility cloak in the Forbidden Forest.”
Albus then reluctantly retracted his wand and patted Xiaopo’s shoulder: “Forget it, you are trying to save Lily, you will find it back.”
“I’m afraid I’m going to disappoint you.” Hermione pushed open the bed door and walked in.
“What? Didn’t find it?” Ginny seemed more concerned about the answer to the question.
“We searched every corner in detail, but just like the Resurrection Stone…” Hermione sighed helplessly: “Maybe we can only wait until next time, when someone can find something like the scarab!”
“How about using the Niffler? You know, the Niffler is very good at finding things!” Hagrid gestured, trying hard to help. After all, he had caused so much trouble for everyone.
“Neither the Invisibility Cloak nor the Resurrection Stone are that shiny,” said Hermione, but she still looked at Hagrid encouragingly: “But if you have time, you can try it. What if you really find it…”
“I’ll go right away!” Hagrid stood up in a hurry, and the bed beneath him made a sound of being overwhelmed again. It seemed that his wound was affected, and Hagrid grinned.
“Don’t force yourself!” Hermione patted Hagrid.
“It’s okay, it’s okay! I will definitely find it!” Hagrid smiled hard and hurried out of the school infirmary.
Albus’s face showed disappointment.
Xiaopo apologized again, but Albus shook his head: “No, actually, that cloak is to me…”
“Very important!” Xiaopo knew that Albus wanted to tell a white lie: “That was given to you by your father. Don’t worry, we will all help! After all, even the Resurrection Stone was found by Bearded Man, so sooner or later…”
“The Resurrection Stone was found by Scoob?!” Ginny asked in surprise and looked at Hermione, who seemed equally surprised.
Xiaopo thought about it and seemed that he really forgot to report this matter to the professors, so he quickly told them what happened after the bearded man captured them. Of course, he concealed the fact that CG might be a member of the organization.
After hearing everything, Hermione and Ginny looked at each other helplessly. In this case, the stone is most likely in the hands of the Ministry of Magic now.
“There’s nothing we can do about it.” Hermione sighed.
Ginny nodded and looked at Hermione again: “You came so early, is there something going on?”
“Of course,” Hermione looked at the children and explained solemnly, “I hope everyone can keep their mouths shut about what happened last night. Because Hogwarts has decided to support the Ministry of Magic for the time being.”
As expected, the children went wild and started shouting.
Hermione let the children vent their anger. Madam Pomfrey hurried over and everyone slowly quieted down.
“Can’t you change the statement that everyone can accept?” Madam Pomfrey said to Hermione dissatisfiedly, as if she had known the news for a long time, and turned and walked out.
“Why?” Jaina asked.
“For us!?” CG raised his head and gave the answer he had already guessed.
“And the peace of the Yren magic world!”
Chapter 46 The Dust Settles (2) (Old Version)
“And the peace of the Ylon magic world!” Selena obviously saw things more deeply.
Hermione nodded and looked at the other children. “The turmoil in these years has made it impossible for us to bear the risks of division. If we want to survive the harsh winter, we must stick together for warmth. The world has changed, and it is really difficult for us to remain immune. No matter how many faults the Ministry of Magic has, no matter how excessive Kingsley has done, in the final analysis, we are still protecting the Yron wizarding world. We don’t want to and dare not take the risk of electing a new government. Of course, Hogwarts has released goodwill, and as long as he is still the Kingsley who understands politics, he will not pursue your performance yesterday too much.”
No one spoke, everyone was digesting the implicit meaning of Hermione’s words.
Hermione didn’t give everyone too much time. After all, there were still many things to do.
Hermione pulled out today’s Daily Prophet from her pocket and tapped the front page headline with her wand. The news was projected into the air. Kingsley, accompanied by important officials from the Ministry of Magic and Professor McGonagall, walked in front of the camera and talked freely…
“All of these are divisive tactics used by that evil organization to divide us! Despicable, evil, and unscrupulous! The Ministry of Magic has never done, and will never do, anything that violates morality or the law! Professor Scoobing was kidnapped by that organization and his whereabouts are still unknown! Judging from the situation last night, his memory must have been forcibly tampered with, and he may even have been cast under the Imperius Curse! Regarding this matter, we will definitely investigate it thoroughly, rescue Professor Scoobing, and let the evil be severely punished!”
“Mr. Minister, it is said that the leaders of magic from many countries held an emergency meeting with you last night? Is it because it involves various secret operations of various countries?”
“Of course not. The Ministry of Magic has never arranged any so-called secret operations! Otherwise, they could have announced them publicly! This is completely a fabrication of theirs! At present, we have reached a consensus with many countries on this matter. The countries will launch a joint action to jointly encircle and suppress this evil organization that attempts to disrupt the world order and undermine the stability of various countries. I believe that we will succeed, and justice will eventually defeat evil!”
“We would like to ask Headmaster McGonagall to give us her opinion on yesterday’s situation. Are the rumors true? Did the Inspectorate really do so many sensational things at Hogwarts?”
“Of course not, Ministry…”
“Your Excellency, Minister, we would like to ask Professor McGonagall to answer this question.”
“Hogwarts is a place for students to learn knowledge. It should be a place that belongs to children. Hogwarts will never allow these things to happen. On this point, we are willing to believe in the Ministry of Magic and Minister Kingsley. In such a turbulent era, I hope that the entire wizarding world can unite, stop internal friction, and overcome the difficulties together!”
“Principal McGonagall, is this speech truly yours? If you feel threatened, please blink.”
Laughter rang out…
“I have not been threatened. This is the choice and appeal I made under the current situation.”
“Okay, next question!”
Hermione closed the newspaper, and the image slowly disappeared in the air: “That’s probably what happened, so…”
“We compromised?” Albus asked angrily. If so, what was the point of yesterday’s struggle?
“Of course not!” Hermione said, “As the headmaster said, this is a choice we have to make under the current circumstances!”
“But that’s not the truth!” Winice said timidly.
“Of course not…” Hermione turned and looked at Winice.
“People won’t believe it! No one is really a fool!” Scorpius took over the conversation!
“Of course, so they need Professor McGonagall to come forward. Have you ever seen the Minister of Magic make a public speech and invite the headmaster of Hogwarts to come forward?” Selena analyzed, then looked at Hermione and said in a bad tone: “So the Ministry of Magic compromised? And then you believed it? Am I stupid or are you stupid?”
“You’re very smart, Selena.” Hermione didn’t care about Selena’s rude remarks: “Politics has never relied on so-called trust! We need to have our own authority and voice.”
Selena’s eyes lit up: “Did you prepare different manuscripts?”
Hermione smiled with satisfaction, handed over a long roll of parchment, turned and left the school infirmary.
Selena took it hurriedly and looked at the unsigned article on the parchment, her expression becoming more and more excited!
“What did you say?” Xiaopo came over anxiously.
Selena slammed the parchment shut with her hands. “Wait for tomorrow’s episode of The Quibbler!”
Sure enough, the next day, The Quibbler published an extra issue. Although it only contained one article, it spread instantly throughout the streets and alleys! It even reached the Muggles.
The article details Xiaopo’s experience throughout the semester, from the secret that year to the Ministry of Magic’s battle in Hogwarts! It mentions every little trick of the Ministry of Magic and the various injustices suffered by the children. Fortunately, there are still DAs! The bravery of the DAs moved the public! The children’s Jedi counterattack gave the magic world hope!
Fear should never be an excuse for the Ministry of Magic’s actions!
Once again, a large-scale protest demonstration was held in front of the Ministry of Magic. However, this time, the demonstration came and went quickly!
People remembered Professor McGonagall’s words, and combined with this article, everyone understood the true meaning! We need stability! We need peace! To cope with various pressures from both inside and outside!
The premise of all this is unity!
The Ministry of Magic was surprisingly restrained this time, allowing the “Quiller” to spread everywhere. It also never mentioned the children’s raised hands that night, or the melee!
Things seemed to be moving in a good direction. Other countries did not change their preferential treatment or strategies towards Y because of the live broadcast that night, and they even continued to cooperate with Dongfang.
People’s suspicions did not decrease, but they chose to tolerate and temporarily trust the Ministry of Magic. More families began to subscribe to The Quibbler while subscribing to The Daily Prophet, of course, not to read the novel ideas in it, but more because they did not want to miss the unsigned articles that appeared from time to time.
And after all this commotion, the Hogwarts exam week, even though there were only a few subjects left, was still postponed for two full weeks!
On the last day before the holiday, all the children breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was only 14 days, the students always felt that this semester seemed a little too long! How could so many things happen? !
Finally, after much anticipation, the children had the dinner they had been longing for.
Gryffindor finally won the House Cup after three years. Hermione looked at the excited faces at the Lion Headmaster’s table! The DAs won a lot of extra points for each house with their outstanding performance. But who can blame Gryffindor for having the most DAs? Gryffindor finally turned the tide and surpassed the most stable Hufflepuff!
When Neville handed the house cup to Hermione, he half-jokingly asked, “You really didn’t intentionally recruit so many Gryffindor students into the DA? Why is there only Winice in our house?”
Hermione smiled, took the house cup and held it high above her head! Nick, who was almost headless, burst into tears with excitement!
Chapter 46 The Dust Settles (3) (Old Version)
The next day, Xiaopo formally asked Hermione whether he could also stay in Hogwarts for his summer vacation.
But Hermione’s answer disappointed Xiaopo: “I’m sorry, Xiaopo. We can’t change Dongfang’s request.”
Hermione rubbed Little Po’s forehead comfortingly, and Little Po, even after his slight disappointment, still had his signature silly smile on his face!
Just go back!
After all, that is my hometown! There are Fatty Uncle, Xiaowen, countless places of interest and cultural heritage, and authentic food that you can’t eat even in Hogwarts!
Xiao Po thought about it, and seemed to be a little impatient. He even imagined the surprised expressions on the faces of other children when they discovered that he was actually a wizard, intentionally or unintentionally! Well, maybe they would hide from him even more.
“At least I’m more capable now than before. I can’t be worse than before!” Xiaopo smiled and muttered unconsciously.
“What?” Hermione asked with a smile, not knowing whether she really didn’t hear clearly or if she did it on purpose.
“Nothing!” Xiaopo rushed towards the crowd with a smile because he saw his friends there!
“Xiaopo, you’re just in time!” Jaina pointed at CG and Xiaopo seriously and said, “You and CG, pay close attention to Quidditch this summer! You must join the team next year! I don’t want to be defeated by those Slytherins who use the skills they learned from us to win the championship!”
“Slytherin won the championship?” Xiaopo asked in surprise.
“How many games did you miss?” Jaina asked dissatisfiedly.
“He didn’t go to any of the shows,” Selena came over with her luggage and pointed at the Ravenclaws who kept their distance even though they didn’t avoid him on purpose. “Just imagine what the scene would be like if he sat in the audience.”
Xiaopo smiled foolishly and scratched his head. He seemed to have gotten used to it. After all, there was no longer the pointing and nagging like before. “It will be fine!”
“Yes, at least in Gryffindor, everyone has accepted you.” Jaina said encouragingly.
“Who said that?!” Trod came closer and kept a distance from Xiaopo: “Whether I will accept you or not depends on your performance!”
“Who’s talking?” Albus rolled his eyes at Trod and walked over with Scorpius. Perhaps because he heard what Jaina said at first, Albus deliberately moved the broom next to the luggage closer to him, then looked at Scorpius again and said seriously, “Many Slytherins actually have high expectations of you. Do you want to consider coming to Slytherin for development?”
A big hand was placed on Albus’ head, James and Lily also came over, Albus tried hard to break free from Albus’s big hand, Scorpius chuckled.
“James, haven’t you graduated yet?” Xiaopo asked in surprise.
“Yes, but who says that graduates can’t wait until the last day to leave school?” James’s deep voice sounded, and it seemed that his injuries had recovered well.
“Where are you going to work?” Xiaopo asked.
“He became an Auror!” Lily said with a smile.
“Great!” Jaina didn’t care about her image at all and punched Jaime in the chest with envy.
“Tsk.” Albus made a dissatisfied sound.
James didn’t care and said formally: “I’ll go help Dad. The Ministry of Magic can’t be run by Dad alone!”
“Um, can you help me?” Winice’s timid voice came from behind. The weight of the suitcase seemed to be beyond her ability.
CG raised his hand and cast a levitation spell.
“Thank you. I haven’t been using the levitation spell very well.” Winice blushed a little.
“Don’t be afraid!” Albus waved his hand and pointed at himself: “If anyone dares to bully you in the future, tell me my name! I will beat him up!”
“Cough cough!” Trod pretended to cough, and at the right time took out the fake Galleon and showed the golden word “Discipline” on it!
“Okay, okay, I get it, you are the biggest in the world! That’s enough.” Albus snorted and turned his head away.
Winice smiled, but puffed out her chest: “I’m not afraid, I’m a DA too!”
Xiaopo also smiled and expressed his doubts: “I just don’t quite understand why we have to carry our own luggage this time? Shouldn’t the luggage be loaded onto the train early?”
“Because the professors found that you rely too much on magic! So much so that the only physical exercise you have is Quidditch. During the holidays, remember to practice the CG footwork routines every day!” Ginny came over with her luggage without knowing when: “Think about the man in red robes, and then think about those people from the Inspectorate, not to mention those Oriental Mao suits. If you have to face these people in the future, magic and physical fitness are both indispensable.”
“Mom? Why don’t you just Apparate back?” Albus exclaimed in surprise.
“How many times have I told you to call me professor at school!” Ginny frowned.
“Come on! Do you have to squeeze into the train with us? I don’t want to sit in the same room with you.” Albus yelled.
Ginny rolled her eyes at Albus and looked at Little Broken: “Hermione, there are other things to do, so I will take you back this time.”
Xiaopo understood instantly that Ginny was going to escort him. He thanked her and sighed that she was so thoughtful.
A long whistle sounded, Xiaopo turned his head to look at the particularly incongruous high-speed train body, and followed a group of DAs onto the train.
The express train, carrying the children’s laughter and joy, is heading for the distance…
In a secret room somewhere, three trays were placed neatly in front of a long laboratory table.
A masked figure stood in front of the long table.
The tray on the left was empty, as if there was nothing in it. But the figure gently touched the empty space with his hand, and it was obvious that there was something there!
On the tray on the right, there is a crystal clear, sparkling stone.
In the middle, there is a magic wand broken into two pieces.
A thick magic book was placed in front of him, with the pages spread out, and all kinds of incomprehensible magic symbols were densely drawn on it.
The black shadow slowly took out a magic wand that was so broken that the core was exposed.
With a flick of his finger, magic crushed the last piece of wood on the wand, revealing the fiery red phoenix feather inside.
The shadow carefully placed the feather on the tray in the middle, between the two wands!
He closed his eyes and calmed his mind, while casting magic in his hands. A magic circle faintly appeared on the tray in the middle!
The phoenix’s feathers slowly began to catch fire, and the bright flames flashed a magical light.
The old pages of the book flipped, and one magical symbol after another flew into the air and merged into the magic wand along with the flame.
The magic continued, and the remaining pages of the book became fewer and fewer. Suddenly, a ball of flame rose up, and the dark blue flame soared into the sky. The blue phoenix was born and flew high. The bright flame immediately sensed it, and the fire phoenix spread its wings and flew straight into the sky!
The bright and dark blue flames were intimately intertwined, circling and chirping in the air, dazzling at one moment and sparkling at another.
The light of the magic circle lit up again, the Fire Phoenix rushed down first, followed by the Blue Luan. The phoenix and the phoenix sang in harmony, and the waves of magic flowed, as if chaos was just born!
After a long time, the magic slowly disappeared, and the staff on the plate was intact.
The figure in front of the long table breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the wand, and felt the flow of magic with satisfaction! This is what a holy weapon should look like!
The figure brushed the other two trays in turn with satisfaction, carefully put away the other two holy objects, and then shook the Elder Wand gently, and the figure disappeared on the spot…
The magic tore through space, and Little Broken followed Ginny and Apparated again to the east.
The men in Zhongshan suits took over Xiaopo’s luggage, but at Ginny’s strong request, they agreed that everyone should go to the welfare home together.
“Remember to write to us!” Ginny bent down at the corner of the orphanage and whispered to Little Po.
Xiaopo patted Xiaopo’s cage and said, “I will!”
Xiao Xiaopo seemed to understand as well. He raised his head proudly in the cage and purred softly.
Ginny stood up with satisfaction and said to the man in a Mao suit next to her: “Hey! He will write to us at any time. If we find anything unusual, or don’t receive any letters for a long time! You know what will happen!”
The man in the Zhongshan suit had a serious expression on his face. His mouth moved slightly, but he said nothing in the end.
Xiaopo looked at Ginny gratefully. Ginny winked at Xiaopo and waved goodbye.
Xiaopo smiled foolishly, pushed his glasses, picked up his luggage, turned around and ran towards the welfare home he was familiar with!
“Uncle Fatty, I’m back!”
First school year completed!
Hello everyone, thank you for your continued support of this book.
The first part, which is the first academic year, ends here. The sequel will naturally be the second academic year. However, due to my writing habits, it may take some time before the second academic year will be available to you.
How should I put it? I don’t like to publish a chapter as soon as I write a novel. I wrote the entire first academic year, sorted it out and revised it, and then published it, although it’s not very good. I will wait until I finish writing the second academic year before publishing it, so I can only say sorry to everyone in advance. Please be patient, the second part will meet you later.
Finally, thank you all again for your support. I will work hard to write a good novel and tell you a wonderful story!
Chapter 1 Fat Uncle, I’m Back (Old Version)
Xiaopo shouted excitedly and ran to the corner of the street dragging his luggage!
However, when Xiaopo arrived at the gate, his smiling face was instantly filled with gloom!
One of the rusty iron doors was barely hanging on the incomplete wall, while the other one was lying on the ground…
The welfare home sign was nowhere to be found, and the yard was overgrown with weeds and looked desolate.
“Has this been abandoned by time?” Xiaopo muttered to himself in self-mockery, trying to keep smiling, but in just a moment, Xiaopo knew that he simply couldn’t do it.
“Uncle Fat!” Xiaopo shouted almost in tears and rushed inside anxiously!
The moment Xiaopo stepped into the welfare home, a figure flashed by, and ripples of magic appeared, as if a layer of transparent film covered the sky above the welfare home!
Xiaopo was in a trance and quickly stopped! He subconsciously let go of his luggage, stretched out his left hand, and the magic wand had inadvertently slipped into his palm!
It was indeed magic, it was indeed a spell, someone had indeed done something wrong! I was not wrong!
A strong smell of alcohol came from behind!
Xiaopo didn’t look back. He crouched down, took a step forward, pulled out his magic wand, and swept his palm across. The magic power instantly gathered between the magic wands!
“who!”
Xiaopo shouted loudly, but his wrist was grabbed in an instant!
“You are quite skilled…”
A drunken voice floated into Xiaopo’s ears, and a large hand like an iron clamp pinched Xiaopo’s wrist. Xiaopo looked up!
Slippers, shorts, vest, wine flask hanging from waist, fanning with palm leaves, hair hanging down randomly, what the hell?! Is this the person who is going to deal with me? Can he be a little more formal? Doesn’t he know the prophecy about me?!
In a trance, Xiaopo hesitated, but the next second, Xiaopo had made a decision. Even though everything seemed so inconsistent, the magic could not be fake, and the big hand that held him tightly could not be fake!
Xiaopo chopped down with his left hand, heading straight for the wrist of the big hand!
But the wrist just flicked slightly, and Xiaopo clearly felt the magic on it! This was to block Xiaopo’s slash!
CG taught me this trick!
In that case, let me give you a taste of DA’s grappling!
Xiao Po was no longer vague. He changed his palm into a claw, grabbed the man’s wrist, pulled back with both hands, and using the man’s strength, he jumped high with both feet and kicked towards the man’s chest!
finally!
Xiaopo saw a hint of surprise in the eyes of the person who came!
The man retracted his iron palm and let go of Xiaopo!
He held the palm-leaf fan in front of his chest, and a surge of magic rose up, blocking Xiaopo’s feet!
Xiaopo kicked twice, rolled on the ground, and while keeping some distance, he pointed his wand straight ahead!
“Everyone is petrified!”
That’s right, Xiaopo can use magic! At the end of last semester, after the great battle in the Forbidden Forest, Xiaopo was no longer bound by his body, and he could use magic!
only……
This is a small and broken magic. Can it be used seriously?
A magic as black as ink flew out from Xiaopo’s wand, but the strange fluctuations of magic power did not seem to be a serious magic no matter how you looked at it!
“You call this petrification?!”
After realizing the inappropriateness of the magic, the man finally seemed to become serious, and there was no trace of drunkenness in his words anymore!
He stepped back and crossed his palms. A spiral magic was generated. His front palm supported the magic while his back palm continuously drew spirals!
boom!
With a loud bang, Xiaopo’s magic hit the spiral! Amid the roar, huge energy flew everywhere! But in an instant, all the magic was caught back by an invisible energy!
This is not a spiral, it’s clearly a whirlpool!
That person not only wants to take on Xiaopo’s magic, but also wants to take all the magic power?
Yes, he succeeded!
But who said there is only one strike! ?
The magic power had not yet dissipated, but Xiaopo had already flown up!
Martial arts?
That’s right!
Who said Xiaopo just removed the seal? Who said Xiaopo can only use magic?
Don’t forget, Xiaopo has been with CG for a whole year! They have experienced countless battles!
Even without the martial arts formally taught at the end, Xiaopo is now able to use martial arts under the influence of his surroundings! Even if these are only so superficial in CG’s eyes.
but!
That’s enough!
Thick black magic covered Xiaopo’s fist!
The little man was in the air, punched his fist hard, and shouted loudly, imitating CG!
The fist, with magic, slammed down towards the man’s face!
The magic surged, creating waves of energy! This time, the man no longer had the energy to control all the magic!
But the expression on Xiaopo’s face became solemn!
Xiaopo clearly felt the touch from the fist, it was that familiar iron palm again!
The magic dissipated, and Xiaopo fell to the ground, but at the critical moment, the man’s palm grabbed Xiaopo’s fist!
Before Xiaopo could react, the man had already thrown Xiaopo to the side!
The palm-leaf fan had already fallen to the ground, but the man didn’t care at all. He randomly combed the hair that was blocking his eyes back and tied it into a short ponytail at the back of his head with a leather bag that he didn’t know where!
“Female? Who are you?” Xiaopo looked at the person in front of him and asked warily.
But the man had no intention of answering. He looked unfriendly and asked in a cold tone, “Who taught you martial arts?”
“Who are you?” Xiaopo also did not answer. He condensed magic in his palm and continued to ask.
“You won’t tell me?” The man replied coldly, “Very good, I’ll beat you until you tell me!”
As soon as he finished speaking, the man exerted force on his feet and magic gathered in his feet!
Bang! There was a crisp sound of tearing space, and in an instant, he appeared beside Xiaopo!
This is not Apparition!
Xiaopo was a little surprised!
Because Xiaopo already knew where the man was going to hit him next! Because the man’s figure appeared on his left side! It was almost exactly the same move that CG had used before!
Xiaopo subconsciously protected his sides and turned around to use the Iron Mountain Lean Back Move!
“Impossible!” Xiaopo shouted in surprise, but he clearly saw surprise in the man’s eyes.
The man might have been surprised by Xiaopo’s prediction, and Xiaopo was surprised that he had already made a prediction, but Tieshankao hit nothing. Could this martial art be more powerful than CG?
Didn’t give Xiaopo much time to think about it!
After all, if you miss an attack and then instantly distance yourself from it, that is assassination, not martial arts!
Martial arts are all about continuity, at least, that’s the case with this guy right now!
The man was only surprised for a moment, dodged Xiaopo’s iron back kick, and turned around to kick him with a whip kick!
The wind was blowing hard and Xiaopo could already feel the energy in it, not to mention that there was magic on it!
Hide? Impossible! The man’s speed was too fast for Xiaopo to catch up with, not to mention that this change was something Xiaopo had never seen before!
Then we can only fight hard!
Xiaopo’s ability to take a beating was something he had practiced over time! What’s more, Xiaopo also had Black Crystal!
Head-on confrontation!
It couldn’t be better!
Xiaopo used his magic and raised his arms to meet the target in an instant!
Fast, it’s really fast!
The black crystal only appeared for a moment before being shattered by magic!
The whip kick hit Xiaopo’s arms hard!
Xiaopo’s body flew backwards involuntarily and fell to the ground beside him! Xiaopo struggled to prop himself up, but his hands were completely out of control!
“Try hiding again!”
The man stood in front of Xiaopo and looked at Xiaopo on the ground coldly!
Xiaopo glared back angrily, refusing to admit defeat.
“Wild fox Zen…” The man rolled his eyes at Xiaopo, untied the wine flask from his waist and gulped down two mouthfuls. He pulled the rubber band of his ponytail and fiddled with it twice, causing the hair, which was not very neat to begin with, to become messy again.
The dazzling sunlight sprinkled on the ground, making the surrounding dilapidated scene look even more desolate.
A crisp sound was heard from not far away, and a crack appeared out of thin air in the air.
“Tsk.” The man murmured in dissatisfaction, with a hint of drunkenness in his tone.
He stretched out his hand and a palm-leaf fan flew over, and the crack disappeared instantly.
“Who are you?”
Looking at the figure walking towards the depths of the welfare home, Xiaopo struggled to ask.
The man stopped and turned to glance at Xiaopo: “I am your keeper!”
Chapter 2 I am your keeper (old version)
“I’m your keeper!”
Xiao Po covered his arm, not caring about the pain, and asked, “What caretaker? Hey, hey!”
But the man was already waving a palm-leaf fan, and his figure slowly disappeared into the air!
This time, Xiaopo clearly saw the ripples of magic, and he was sure that it was the same as what he saw outside the Leaky Cauldron!
“Protection spell?!”
Xiaopo stood up muttering to himself, rubbing his still trembling arms, and slowly walked inside.
Suddenly, a sloppy face reappeared under the messy hair, which scared Xiaopo!
“I’m warning you,” his drunken face seemed to be flushed, “don’t try to break my protection spell again! Otherwise, I will kill you!”
“What…” Xiaopo looked up and wanted to ask, but the man disappeared again: “Hey!”
“Come in!” Fatty’s voice came from inside: “What are you two doing?”
Xiaopo rubbed his eyes in surprise, looked in the direction of the sound, and confirmed that what he saw was just a pile of rubble. Suddenly he slapped his forehead and said, “This protection spell, isn’t it aimed at me?!”
“That kid seems to be lost.” A drunken voice came: “Was he really here before?”
“MD!”
Xiaopo cursed in his heart and took a step forward!
Ripples of magic appeared, it was indeed a protective spell!
There was no such thing as dilapidated and desolate, no such thing as ruins and broken walls. After casting the protective spell, Xiaopo saw the familiar welfare home, the familiar compound, the familiar fat uncle, and the fat uncle’s familiar big round face!
“Little Po! Hahaha!” Uncle Fatty laughed happily, ran over quickly, and picked up Little Po: “Little Po! How is it, what have you learned this year, tell Uncle Fatty! Hahaha, you are still lost after coming back! You little stinky boy!”
“It hurts, it hurts, Uncle Fatty, my arm hurts!” The little kid screamed with his teeth bared!
The fat uncle quickly let go of Xiaopo and pulled up Xiaopo’s arm with concern: “Did you fight with others again?”
“How could that be possible?” Xiaopo pulled his arm back and said with a grin, “I just fell down accidentally!”
The fat uncle rolled his eyes at Xiaopo, and without any hesitation, he threw a bag of snacks that appeared from nowhere to Xiaopo, and opened one for himself.
Xiaopo skillfully put the snacks in his hand into his pocket, took the ones from Uncle Fatty and started eating.
The fat uncle rubbed Xiaopo’s head, and picked up the luggage for Xiaopo while scolding him with a smile.
“Uncle Fatty, who is that person?”
“Who is it? Oh, Xiao Xin. The new plumber. Even though she’s a girl, she can fix anything. It’s a pity that she likes to drink a lot and doesn’t like to pick up things herself…”
The fat uncle was pulling Xiaopo forward, chattering to him with a happy face.
Xiaopo turned around inadvertently and looked at the “caretaker” who was walking leisurely outside the door.
The man had already walked away without even giving Xiaopo a second glance, as if Xiaopo was just a little brat who needed no attention after being taught a lesson.
But is Xiaopo really ordinary? And who is the caretaker?
Xiao Po thought about it and turned back. Fatty Uncle was still chattering. His joy at seeing Xiao Po again would not fade away in a short time. Xiao Po rubbed his head and, influenced by Fatty Uncle, his signature silly smile reappeared on his face.
It’s just that the door behind me closed by itself at an inopportune time…
In the noisy tavern, the sound of the air breaking was drowned out by all the noise. But when the person who Apparated walked out of the corner, the huge tavern instantly became quiet!
Black robes and masks! These iconic costumes let everyone know that they are one of us.
No one could see the young man’s face!
But no one who can sit here and drink would not know what this mask represents!
Masks! Organizations! More than that!
The reason why this mask is special is not because there is anything different about the mask itself, but because the young man behind the mask represents the highest combat power in the organization!
The young man looked at everyone in the room, and deliberately ignored some of the unfriendly looks!
“I’m looking for Lei Mu!” The young man’s voice was very soft, but it seemed to carry magic and was clearly heard by everyone present.
The bartender subconsciously pointed to a corridor in the corner.
The boy nodded and walked over there.
Explain? No, the top fighters never need to explain anything to these people! It’s just to save unnecessary trouble, such as finding someone, and…
“Just leaving?”
A voice came from the side!
The wine glass was placed on the coffee table in front of him, and a flat-headed man took off his mask and stood up!
The boy turned around helplessly and looked at the flat-headed brother.
The flat-headed brother looked around and said with a fake smile: “Don’t get me wrong, I just want to fight with you!”
With just one glance, the boy had already seen the scars hidden under the flat-headed brother’s robe. The magic power in his palm dissipated, and the boy turned around and walked towards the corridor.
The flat-headed brother laughed at himself, picked up the wine glass, took a big gulp, and threw it to the ground with a bang!
Before the sound of breaking things had faded away, the flat-headed man had already put his hand on the boy’s shoulder: “Do you know how many people in my team died in the last operation because of you?!”
The boy did not answer, but looked at the flat-headed brother without a trace of emotion in his eyes!
The flat-headed man was furious! He took out his magic wand and pressed it against the boy’s chest: “Why don’t you follow the plan? Why!”
“That’s enough!”
A man also wearing a mask appears!
“Lei Mu!” The flat-headed brother turned around and looked at the boy, then locked his eyes with anger: “Don’t worry about it, let me fight him!”
“I’ve said enough!”
Lei Mu had a gloomy face, and a dark shadow had already climbed onto the shoulder of the honey badger.
The shadow grabbed the flat-headed fox’s neck and roared at the boy with its fangs and claws. The boy was unmoved, but the flat-headed fox stood still with a painful expression.
The boy shook his head helplessly and raised his hand to pat the flat-headed brother on the shoulder. A white light flashed across the boy’s palm, the black shadow dissipated, and the flat-headed brother collapsed to the ground, struggling to breathe the air.
Lei Mu glared at the boy, then turned and walked back to the corridor…
Without paying any more attention to the honey badger, the young man flashed and appeared next to Lei Mu.
“I hate you more and more!” Lei Mu said to the boy behind him without looking back.
The boy did not answer and followed quietly.
“Tsk.” Seeing the boy silent, Lei Mu said dissatisfiedly: “You are lucky, my sister is here today.”
The young man paused and stopped.
Lei Mu turned around: “What?”
“I won’t go in.” The boy shook his head, took out an antique box and handed it to Lei Mu.
“Is it repaired?” Lei Mu asked in surprise, looking at the box in his hand.
“Yeah.” The young man nodded. Under the dim light, the half of his face exposed could not tell his emotion at all.
“Why don’t you go in?” Lei Mu put away the box and looked up at the boy.
“What are you going in for?” the boy asked.
“Let’s have a fight!” Lei Mu said sarcastically.
A strange feeling flashed through the boy’s mind, but he still shook his head: “Forget it.”
Lei Mu sighed and looked at the boy with disdain: “Can’t you…”
“No…” The boy interrupted Lei Mu.
Lei Mu muttered silently, and then continued in a bad tone: “The teacher said that if you really want to leave, we won’t stop you, but she still hopes that you will think about it again.”
The boy turned around and leaned against the wall, looking up at the dim ceiling: “I want to do something meaningful.”
“You are hopeless!” Lei Mu rolled his eyes at the boy and leaned against the wall as well: “What could be more meaningful than living a good life!”
The young man smiled bitterly: “With great power comes great responsibility!”
“MD, I hate your pretentious attitude. Isn’t it better to live a good life?” Lei Mu cursed, took out the box again and gave it back to the boy: “Since you have made up your mind, this is for you. Don’t look at me, the teacher said, she has something to tell you, go forward boldly, we are behind you!”
The boy didn’t answer and changed the subject: “I want to see the bearded man.”
“Why are you looking at him?” Lei Mu asked back.
“Let’s talk.”
“Chatting your uncle~” Lei Mu cursed softly and spat: “The teacher said that you are not allowed to see him, I have conveyed it. Anyway, I can’t beat you, you can do it yourself! Underground 2, you know which room it is. MD, it’s so annoying to talk to you!”
The young man looked at Lei Mu with a smile, and with a sound of breaking through the air, he disappeared on the spot!
Lei Mu kicked the wall hard, sighed, put his hands in his pockets, and walked towards the room in the corner…
Chapter 3 Underground Prison (Old Version)
“Can’t you just walk properly? You Apparate every time!”
A familiar voice was heard in the dark prison, but no one answered.
The magic lamp slowly lit up, and the shadow of the iron fence fell on the ground, drawing small grids on the ground.
The boy stood in front of the prison and slowly took off his mask…
The bearded man covered his eyes with his hands, as if he had not seen the light for a long time. When his eyes slowly adapted to the light and saw the boy’s face clearly, he stood up suddenly, rushed to the front of the prison, and grabbed the iron bars with both hands, letting the shackles on his hands hit the fence!
No one speaks!
The bearded man stared at the boy for a long time. Then he laughed loudly: “I should have thought of it long ago! I am right! I am right! Hahahahaha!”
“Come with me! I’ll take you out!” the young man said casually.
“Okay, let me out!” The bearded man said with a fake smile, “Believe it or not, the first thing I will do after I get out is to kill you!”
“You can’t beat me!” The boy waved his hand and got himself a chair.
“Do you want to try it?” The bearded man tried hard to squeeze his face out of the fence with a hint of madness on his face.
“You are the Inspector General.” The boy changed the subject.
“Of course I am!” The bearded man suddenly became serious, puffed out his chest proudly, and the shackles hit the iron bars again!
“But they were still caught in one fell swoop!” the young man said without emotion.
“Kill me if you dare?” the bearded man roared loudly with anger in his eyes.
“For the well-being of future generations, would you rather bear the infamy of your whole life?” the young man continued.
“Shut up! You are not worthy of making this oath! You are not worthy!” the bearded man roared, with pride in his tone.
“But you betrayed the Inspectorate! Live broadcast worldwide!” the young man said mockingly.
“…! Hahahaha!” The bearded man was silent for a few seconds, then he laughed crazily, and suddenly his face turned grim: “I advise you to kill me. If I get out, I will definitely kill you! Kill you!”
“Very good!” The young man drew out his wand expressionlessly!
The bearded man looked at the boy proudly, lifted his clothes and exposed his chest: “Come on! If I frown, I will take your last name!”
“There’s nothing wrong with having my last name!” the boy said, shaking his wand in complicated patterns, and the prison door suddenly opened!
The bearded man was stunned for only a moment!
Suddenly there was a roar! The bearded man rushed out and threw himself on the boy! The grids drawn on the ground, countless magic flashed, but miraculously, they did not stop the bearded man who rushed out!
Fast! It can’t be faster!
Hate! Hate it so much that I can’t hate it anymore!
The bearded man, who was restrained by shackles and unable to cast magic, tightly grasped the boy’s neck with both hands, his face full of ferocity!
The young man was knocked off balance and fell on his back in the shadows!
The boy stretched out his hands and lay on the ground. His two big hands with bulging veins squeezed every inch of space in the boy’s throat…
Without struggling or resisting, the boy let the bearded man vent his anger…
“For the well-being of our descendants and future generations…” intermittent voices came, proving that the hands that were tightly strangling our neck were indeed working!
“Shut up! I’ll kill you!” The bearded man roared madly, and the strength in his hands increased a little more!
“If you really want to…” The boy’s voice became softer and softer, and he spoke word by word with difficulty: “To practice this sentence, you can only follow…”
“Nonsense!” The bearded man became more and more crazy, and strangled the boy in front of him with all his strength: “The only way to save this magic world is to kill you!”
The boy’s mouth opened and closed silently, as if he was still trying to persuade her, but it was in vain…
The bearded man stared at the young man in front of him with bloodshot eyes, his movements becoming slower and slower until he stopped moving completely…
The bearded man did not loosen his hand. After five minutes, he seemed to be exhausted and fell to the ground.
Panting, the bearded man stared at the magic lamp. Suddenly, he laughed, so wantonly, and so relieved…
“Is this what you wanted?”
The boy’s voice suddenly came from the shadows.
The bearded man was startled and jumped up, watching the young man who had just been strangled by him slowly fade away and disappear…
“If you’re happier, maybe we can continue what we were talking about!”
The young man walked out from the shadows, his black robe spotless.
“Kill you!”
The bearded man roared and rushed forward again!
The young man still did not dodge, allowing the bearded man to knock him down again, grab his throat again, and frantically kill him again…
Once, twice, three times, five times, ten times, a hundred times…
When the boy couldn’t remember how many times he had repeated this, and when the bearded man was too tired to stand up anymore…
“What exactly do you want?” The bearded man lay on the ground, staring at the ceiling blankly.
“Are you feeling better?” The young man sat cross-legged next to the bearded man.
The bearded man closed his eyes expressionlessly: “Don’t waste your energy! Do you know why I am willing to live on after betraying the Supervisory Office? I will kill you with my own hands! Kill Hu Xiaopo! I will put an end to the prophecy with my own hands!”
“Will it be useful to kill us?” the boy asked.
“certainly!”
The bearded man suddenly opened his eyes and pounced on the boy again!
Ten times? A hundred times?
Even thousands of times! So what?!
As long as there is still a joint in the body that can move! The bearded man will rush forward regardless of his own safety!
One day, the enemy will not be able to stand up again!
This is faith! The faith of the first generation of the Supervisory Department!
I don’t know if it was the power of faith, but this time, the boy did not wake up…
The bearded man took out the boy’s magic wand from the lining of his robe, unlocked the shackles, carefully opened the door and turned out, trying all the way, and finally! The restriction on Apparition disappeared, and the annoying spatial restraint was gone!
A crisp sound! The Apparition Disappeared!
The bearded man appeared in the lobby of the Ministry of Magic!!!
“Someone, someone, help me! I need…”
The bearded man tried to roar, happy, excited, thrilled? Maybe, but it only lasted for a moment, because he saw the mess in front of him!
The outer wall was shattered, the stairs had collapsed, and the dome had been blown into shocking holes. Large blocks of bricks and stones were scattered everywhere! Under my feet, there was a pile of broken bricks and tiles.
How can this be the Ministry of Magic Hall? It is clearly a ruin ravaged by magic!
Standing on the ruins, the bearded man stood there in a daze, holding his wand!
The young man slowly appeared beside the bearded man!
The bearded man just opened his mouth and stared blankly at what was in front of him: “What’s going on?”
“This is what you call the Dark Ages!” The young man gently took back the wand from the bearded man, squatted down, picked up the rubble on the ground, and let the rubble slide through his fingers…
“Impossible!” The bearded man seemed to wake up suddenly, and strength burst out from his tired body. He pulled the boy up and shouted hysterically: “I killed you! You are dead! The prophecy will not come true! This is the Ministry of Magic, the Minister and the Inspectorate, and us! And…”
The boy did not struggle. He opened his palm and a medal fell out in the dust…
The dusty medal still glows…
With just one glance, the bearded man let go of the boy without hesitation, took the dusty medal in his hand, looked at the medal in his hand that represented the honor of the Supervisory Department with disbelief, and slowly knelt on the ground…
The young man patted the bearded man’s shoulder, turned his head and looked at the ruins, his voice still very light: “The Ministry of Magic has collapsed…”
The bearded man looked at the badge of the Supervisory Department in his hand, tears streaming down his eyes, unwilling, yet helpless…
Suddenly, the bearded man glared at the boy: “Impossible! You are lying to me! It’s fake! It’s all fake!”
The young man shook his head helplessly. Amid the roar of a giant dragon coming from afar, he placed his hand on the bearded man’s head and said, “You can see for yourself…”
The silver-white light flashed in the palm of the boy’s hand, and the bearded man’s eyes kept rolling up. Countless pictures flashed quickly. Darkness fell, and the bearded man roared unwillingly! Kill the boy, darkness fell, and the bearded man roared unwillingly! Kingsley turned the tide, darkness fell, and the bearded man roared unwillingly! Hermione, Hogwarts, and even Hu Xiaopo, the bearded man swore that he had tried everything possible, but darkness still fell on time…
After a long time, the young man withdrew his hand, and the bearded man’s eyes returned to normal, but he was still staring blankly ahead.
“How many times…” the young man asked in a low voice.
“I don’t remember…” the bearded man answered desperately.
“If I say I have a way to solve all this,” the young man looked at the bearded man seriously, “Are you willing to come?”
Chapter 4 Come with Me (Old Version)
The bearded man smiled bitterly and shook his head, responding softly: “It’s useless… I tried everything, gave up the Ministry of Magic, reorganized the Inspectorate, and even chose you… Everything is in vain…”
“The Ministry of Magic is not the source of the problem…” The boy looked at the dark clouds outside through the hole in the dome.
“Of course not. The Ministry of Magic and the Minister are just the executors of the system. It’s the system itself that has problems.” Whether it was because he had experienced too many reincarnations in an instant or he had already understood everything, the bearded man shook his head and continued: “So, you appeared. But you can’t do anything about it. It’s not your fault. You have tried your best.”
“Have you heard of the Hundred Days’ Reform? It’s a period of Eastern history.” With a light sigh, the young man spoke again: “How can you expect conservatives to save a system that is terminally ill?”
“What do you mean?” The bearded man didn’t seem to understand.
“I am no longer a member of the organization! If we want to change things, we have to do it ourselves!”
The bearded man slowly raised his head and looked at the boy.
“Come with me,” the boy repeated his first words, and said firmly, “Follow me and change everything!”
“It’s useless!” The bearded man still shook his head.
“At least follow me and see what the future will look like…”
The bearded man didn’t remember how he answered. He only remembered that he looked up at the dome and slowly closed his eyes…
The magic lights began to flicker and the bearded man opened his eyes.
It was still the same dungeon, the same iron bars, and he was still in shackles.
At the last moment before the magic lamp went out, the bearded man’s eyes adjusted and he saw the boy leaving and the black robe that boy disappeared at the door…
“How did I answer?” The bearded man yelled madly, “Come back and tell me, how did you do it? How did I answer? Answer me!”
There was no answer. The grid on the ground slowly faded away, and the surroundings returned to darkness again…
“Hey! Tell me, tell me, what have you learned?”
In Xiaopo’s room, Fatty brought a bunch of snacks to Xiaopo. In the familiar room, although a year has passed, nothing seems to have changed. Xiaopo sat on the bed, and Fatty sat beside Xiaopo’s bed. Although they had just eaten dinner, Fatty still ate snacks while asking with interest.
“What else…” Xiaopo answered perfunctorily.
“Nonsense, I heard from the dean, Hermione Granger! That’s Hermione!” The fat uncle gestured excitedly: “So, you really went to Hogwarts? Everything in Harry Potter is true?”
“Forehead……”
Just when Xiaopo was hesitating…
“I advise you not to speak!”
Xiaopo and Fat Uncle looked towards the door at the same time. The door was obviously closed, but the strong smell of alcohol still came through the gap.
“Xiao Xin?” The fat uncle asked doubtfully, looked at Xiao Po, and got up to open the door.
Xiaopo raised his head and wanted to go around the fat uncle’s broad back to see what was happening at the door.
But there was only a flash of white light, and the fat uncle said nothing and walked out the door in an uncoordinated manner.
“You cast a spell on Fatty Uncle?” Xiaopo jumped off the bed!
“Hey~ Good night~” Drunkard Xin burped and was about to leave. Xiaopo rushed out and grabbed Drunkard Xin’s clothes, uh, vest…
Xiaopo felt the unfriendly gaze and quickly let go of her hand, saying awkwardly: “Girl, can’t you dress more normally?”
“How can you dress more normally?” Xin Jiugui asked back, revealing a gap in the hair that was blocking his eyes.
“At least tell me what’s going on? What caretaker? And how can you cast spells on Muggles, no, civilians?” Xiao Po changed the subject.
“You have so many questions.”
Xin Jiugui took a sip of wine, walked in helplessly, and sat down unsteadily at the seat where Fatty Uncle had just sat. He casually opened a bag of Jiugui peanuts and chewed them without any image…
“Peanuts are good,” Xin Jiugui fiddled with his hair, leaned back in his chair, and looked at Xiaopo at the door: “Aren’t you coming in?”
Xiaopo walked in helplessly and sat down beside the bed.
Xin Jiugui had tied her hair into a ponytail. Xiaopo saw her face up close for the first time. Why would such a pretty girl be so…
“Let me formally introduce myself,” Xin Jiugui interrupted Xiaopo’s thoughts and said, “My last name is Xin, the same as Xin Qiji, if you have heard of Xin Qiji. You can call me Academician Xin, or you can call me Professor Xin, it’s up to you. I said, I am your caretaker. Hmm~~~”
“I wanted to ask from the beginning, what is a caretaker?” Taking advantage of the long burp, Xiaopo quickly expressed his doubts.
But a strong and outrageous smell of alcohol rushed straight to Xiaopo, and it seemed to be mixed with the smell of peanuts, garlic, and leeks…
Xiaopo endured the nausea and quickly ran to open the window: “Can you be normal?”
“Hahahaha!” Drunkard Xin, well, Professor Xin laughed wantonly, and her ponytail, at some point, spread out again, blocking her handsome face: “Why are you entangled in these things at such a young age? My ancestors said that when life is good, you should enjoy it to the fullest…”
“That’s Li Bai, okay!” Xiaopo couldn’t help but complain.
Professor Xin laughed even more wildly, took another sip of wine, picked up a few peanuts and threw them into his mouth. Then he continued, “It doesn’t matter~ Where were you just talking about? Oh, yes, my ancestor, my ancestor Xin Qiji, wrote that…”
“Caretkeeper! Please!” Xiaopo interrupted with a black face.
“Oh, caretaker, don’t you know?” Professor Xin leaned back in his chair and looked at Xiaopo.
“Should I know?” Xiao Po asked back with a dissatisfied look on his face. Seeing that Professor Xin seemed to be about to slide off the chair, he hurried over to hold him.
“It’s okay, it’s okay,” Professor Xin waved his hands and fanned them. “How should I put it? Generally speaking, children who can do magic should be looked after by guardians. But in some special cases, there are no guardians, or the guardians can’t control them, so a caretaker is needed. So I’m here… Haha~”
Another burp, Xiaopo kept fanning his face with his hands: “Why didn’t you have this before?”
“You’ve never shown any talent for magic before,” Professor Xin said, looking at Xiaopo, his hair accidentally revealing his eyes. “I heard that you cracked the Black Crystal Demon Slayer?”
Xiaopo was stunned, not knowing how to answer for a moment. He just felt something was wrong!
“You don’t…” Xiaopo asked tentatively, “You don’t know who I am, do you?”
“It’s not important!” Professor Xin answered decisively, leaning back in his chair. “Does it matter who you are? Does it matter if the prophecy is important? Does it matter if Black Crystal can slay demons? Does it matter if your half-baked magic is important? Does it matter if Ye Hu Zen’s martial arts is important? It doesn’t matter! None of it matters! What matters is! Don’t cause trouble, especially don’t cause trouble for me! Do you understand?”
Is it not important? It is obviously very important! However, Xiaopo couldn’t seem to bring himself to say this.
“I never want to cause trouble~” Xiaopo muttered helplessly, grabbing a bag of snacks: “It’s always trouble that comes to me!”
Professor Xin raised his eyebrows and snatched the snacks that Xiaopo had already opened…
“So!” Professor Xin put the snack into his mouth and chewed it. “In the future, we will try our best to keep out of each other’s way, but you should also be careful not to reveal too much about the magical world. Although that damn novel has said everything that can be said, the rules are the rules. Of course, it’s okay to break the rules occasionally, just don’t admit it yourself. Just don’t attract those gray skins, but you should not be afraid of them, right~”
Xiaopo nodded subconsciously, but then quickly shook his head: “Those Zhongshan suits? I can’t beat them!”
“You’re so tired! If you don’t tell the truth, you have to drink a penalty!” Professor Xin smiled and took another big sip. He looked at Xiaopo again and suddenly said with a hint of seriousness: “Where did you learn those moves today?”
Chapter 5 Enemy Attack! (Old Version)
“Ah?” Xiaopo scratched his head: “Is Tieshan reliable? We often see him on TV!”
Although his eyes could not be seen behind the messy hair, Xiaopo clearly felt that he was given a cold look.
“Boring! Forget it, it’s not important. Just don’t break my protection spell. Let’s go.” Professor Xin grabbed two more bags of snacks from the pile and then stood up staggeringly.
“Wait, wait…are you done? I still have questions. What about the protection spell? Isn’t it for people who don’t know magic? Why am I the only one who can’t see through it? There’s no seal on me! And how come ordinary people like Fatty are not affected? You just cast a spell on Fatty, how would you answer if someone asked me the same question again? And you just said you were an academician, so how could you be a caretaker? Shouldn’t my identity be a little special? And, you…”
Xiaopo said quickly, rushing forward, but…
Sigh~~~
Garlic, alcohol, chives…
Xiao Po stopped his movements helplessly, looking at Professor Xin who slowly turned his head, thousands of words converged into two words: “Goodbye!”
The strong smell of alcohol refused to dissipate for a long time, and Xiaopo closed the door heavily…
A huge roar broke the silence of midnight!
One after another, huge fireballs flew towards a dilapidated street as densely as meteors!
“Enemy attack!”
“Pingtou, don’t go out, take everyone and move!”
“Team Two, follow me!”
“Captain! Over there…”
“Tietou, go and take some people to prop up the barrier…”
“There are civilians!”
“sister!”
“Lei Mu, go to the basement and look after it…”
There were noisy shouts, the sound of Apparitions breaking through the air, explosions, roars, screams! It was a mess for a while!
Finally, a huge Tai Chi diagram rose from the roof of the dilapidated tavern! The Tai Chi Pisces rotated and blocked one fireball after another!
However, one fire dragon after another came out of nowhere, lighting up the night sky the moment they appeared. Flames gushed out, fireballs shot out, and the fire dragons wreaked havoc with magic in the sky and rushed straight towards the tavern!
“Sister! Come down quickly!” Lei Mu shouted loudly!
But the red-haired girl wearing a mask on the roof is still performing magic!
Seeing this, Lei Mu flew up, waved his magic wand, and a series of black shadows rushed towards the fire dragon!
The black shadow instantly entangled with the fire dragon, the dragon roared, and the black shadow roared!
Huge explosions sounded one after another in the sky!
More and more people noticed this doomsday-like scene in the sky!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
Continuous Apparitions, figures appeared around one after another! Oblivion spells hit the Muggles who saw all this! The Aurors finally arrived!
“Last warning! Stop!” An Auror hid behind a wall and shouted loudly!
“What’s the point of warning? Arrest him!” Harry Potter led the charge with his wand raised, followed by the Aurors. One of them picked up the guy who was still hiding in the corner and rushed forward.
But the appearance of the Aurors seemed to have completely enraged both sides of the fight. The roar became more deafening and the flames became more unbridled!
A holy white magic fell, instantly covering the entire tavern!
The world seemed to have pressed the mute button, and the buzzing sound filled everyone’s ears!
The Tai Chi diagram shattered, and two black shadows as thick as buckets blocked the white light. At the moment when the white light tore through the black shadows, Lei Mu flew up and disappeared on the spot with the red-haired girl at the critical moment!
The white light fell, the roof turned into powder, and the floor shattered instantly!
The cage, which had been cast with countless spells, instantly turned into nothingness!
In the white light, figures covered their eyes with their hands, trying to see clearly the person walking in the magic!
It was a young man! He landed in front of the bearded man and gently raised a magic wand!
The bearded man looked hysterical, as if he was questioning something. Then, after a look from the boy, he slowly took the wand! More and more figures gathered around the boy, some of them didn’t even look like people. Was that floating in the air a vengeful spirit? !
“Stop!” Harry, who saw everything, shouted, but he couldn’t even hear his own voice!
Harry raised his wand, but at this moment, the boy seemed to sense Harry’s movement, and with a glance, he appeared in front of Harry!
“How about a fight?!”
The holy magic remained, but the buzzing sound had dissipated, and everyone in the room could clearly hear the young man’s voice!
The Aurors raised their wands at the same time, but the boy didn’t know how to do it. When he raised his hand, everyone was blown away by the magic!
There was only one exception, the one the boy wanted to fight with!
Harry looked around and raised his wand fearlessly: “Who are you?!”
“I’ll tell you if you win!”
The boy waved his wand and performed a standard duel salute!
Harry always felt that the wand seemed familiar, but he didn’t know if it was because the white light was too dazzling and he couldn’t see it clearly!
Then let’s fight!
Harry Potter has never been someone who is afraid of fighting!
“Okay!” Harry roared, wand raised!
“Expelliarmus!”
Two identical spells, cast at the same time!
However, this is not a novel, this is reality. There is no flashback spell, no mutual restraint between wands of the same origin, and the same magic without mistakes. The only competition is the level of magic power!
Harry lost!
The magic wand flew out of his hand!
The boy raised his hand and took it!
“You lose!” said the boy!
But Harry had already rushed forward: “I’ll catch you too!”
As he spoke, Harry reached into his pocket and took something out.
The boy looked at Harry with disdain and let Harry throw two black balls at him!
A holy white light flashed and two balls of black mist exploded, but the next second, the white light had cleansed the darkness.
Harry rushed into the white light recklessly, with the magic chain already in his hand, ready to take the boy down!
But the moment he entered the range of white light, rich magic instantly covered Harry’s whole body!
This is not light! This is magic!
Harry stared in surprise and suddenly discovered!
Can’t move!
This is no longer a question of whether you can blink your eyes or lift your fingers!
Breathe? So naive! What does it matter if you are allowed to breathe? Is it air or magic that you breathe in? Such a strong magic, how can an Auror bear it! Even if you are Harry!
Harry’s face began to flush.
The boy raised his hand, and Harry instantly fell to his knees, retching violently, and then gasping for breath!
“You, lost!” The boy handed over Harry’s wand!
Harry took the wand reluctantly, feeling powerless!
Seeing the young man about to disappear before his eyes, Harry was filled with a sense of mission from the bottom of his heart. He was an Auror, so many people were watching him and counting on him, he had to do something!
Harry struggled, raised his hands and grabbed the boy’s clothes!
Under everyone’s gaze, everything seemed to be displayed frame by frame as if in slow motion!
The boy’s disdainful eyes, Harry’s eager but determined gaze, everything was clearly displayed in front of everyone, as if some magic had magnified, frozen, and clarified it all!
Just a little bit!
Harry roared in his heart!
Success!
Finally, Harry’s hand grabbed the boy’s clothes and the black cloak was pulled up!
All the Aurors seemed to breathe a sigh of relief at this moment, and everyone saw the gray trousers under the black cloak!
No! Is that a Zhongshan suit?
There was no time to think about it, the frozen time seemed to have been restored, the boy shook lightly, and disappeared on the spot!
Harry missed!
The holy light disappeared, and no masked person was left behind. All that was left was the ruined tavern and the empty underground prison…
Chapter 6: Xiaopo is attacked (old version)
Xiaopo woke up suddenly and sat up in a daze!
What happened just now? Was the organization attacked? What happened to CG? That dragon soaring into the sky! That strange black shadow! And Harry Potter! That holy light…
However, Xiaopo didn’t have time to think about it, as a huge force pushed Xiaopo back onto the bed? !
“What happened? The sleeping spell was broken? What happened to the binding spell? It didn’t work?”
“No, it’s still going on!”
“External magical disturbance!”
“Impossible! The outside world has been completely blocked…”
“Be quiet!”
Amidst the noisy and hasty discussion, a sudden, calm voice stopped everyone!
Xiaopo looked at the people in uniform around him and subconsciously wanted to find his glasses!
Only then did he realize that his hands and feet were locked to the bed by magic!
But just now, I clearly sat up!
“Who are you?!”
Xiao Po struggled and asked subconsciously. As soon as the words came out of his mouth, he cursed himself for asking such a stupid question. Who cares who he is? He must not be a good person!
“Raise the sleeping spell by two levels!” The steady voice sounded again.
Xiaopo focused his mind and calmed down!
“Paralyzing spell…”
Black crystal emerges!
“Imprisoning potion, quick!”
Xiaopo suddenly opened his eyes!
“Call the guards!”
The voice could no longer remain steady. The moment Xiaopo opened his eyes, the steady voice was already roaring while retreating!
Xiaopo ignored it, and the magic mixed with black crystals condensed around his palm again!
Xiaopo roared, and magic spread out!
The people around quickly cast spells and created a layer of light shield in front of them!
At the same time, the door was suddenly pushed open!
One after another, people in Zhongshan suits came in!
Xiaopo quickly grabbed his glasses from the bedside, and then he could see clearly the uninvited guests in front of him!
“The so-called escort team, are they the ones wearing Zhongshan suits? And those white coats at the back…” Xiaopo thought to himself, anger surging from his heart to his whole body.
The magic on Xiaopo’s hands instantly turned orange and red, and an ominous aura enveloped the surroundings!
“You are the ones who cast the Black Crystal Demon-Breaking spell on me?!” The smile on Xiaopo’s face disappeared completely, and his voice became cold and gloomy. Not to mention CG, even a bearded man could have said it worse!
Every one of the men in Zhongshan suits on the opposite side is facing a formidable enemy!
The momentum before my eyes, the chill of magic! Is this really the magic a child should have? !
“Answer me!” Xiaopo roared angrily!
No one answered. The men in Zhongshan suits looked at Xiaopo warily, while the men in white coats behind him involuntarily focused their attention on the person in the middle!
“The man with gold-rimmed glasses, it’s you!” Xiaopo’s angry eyes instantly locked onto that man!
The man in the white coat and glasses subconsciously took a step back, but bumped into the cabinet behind him!
Is there no way out? The man with gold-rimmed glasses swallowed his saliva and blinked his eyes non-stop.
“Do it!” The steady voice of the man with gold-rimmed glasses sounded again, but anyone could hear the panic in it: “Do it! Catch him for me!”
Xiaopo acted as if he heard an order, he protected his body with his fists, magic surrounded his body, roared like a tiger, exerted force with his feet, and ran straight towards the gold-rimmed glasses!
The men in Zhongshan suits were all stunned and quickly reached out to grab it. The magic condensed in their palms, but it collided with the magic around Xiaopo, creating layers of sparks!
Then……
There is no more!
The opportunity has been lost!
Xiaopo! Already broke through the blockade!
“Stop him!” The man with gold-rimmed glasses roared angrily again and quickly pulled out his wand!
How could a small piece of trash that could break through the blockade of Zhongshan suits be stopped by non-combatants like those in white coats!
The moment the protective spell was raised, it was crushed by Xiaopo’s magic!
The orange-red magic was about to strangle the man with gold-rimmed glasses!
Then in the next second, the wall and the cabinet flew backwards rapidly, and the man with gold-rimmed glasses was actually knocked away!
Xiaopo glanced behind him angrily!
It’s those Zhongshan suits! If you can’t stop Xiaopo, then knock the gold-rimmed glasses away!
Xiaopo exerted force on his feet, as if he was about to rush up again!
But one of the men in Zhongshan suits had already blocked Xiaopo’s way!
Xiaopo raised his hand to hit him, but Zhongshan suit blocked it with one palm! Magic collided, and energy exploded! A huge roar even covered the painful wail of the gold-rimmed glasses falling against the wall!
Zhongshan Suit’s arms felt numb, and he looked at Xiaopo in surprise. Is this magic that a child can have? !
But Xiaopo’s next punch has already been thrown!
This is! Martial arts!
The man in the Zhongshan suit widened his eyes even more! He dodged!
However, the next second, Xiaopo’s whip kick, which he had raised at some point, had already hit the man in the Zhongshan suit!
With just two moves, a man in a Zhongshan suit flew out!
The other Zhongshan suits no longer dared to neglect and immediately took up their positions! The surrounding walls were instantly pushed away, and a circular magic circle appeared under their feet! The Zhongshan suits each stepped on a position, protecting their injured companions while surrounding Xiaopo in the middle!
“Another magic circle!” Xiao Po looked at everything coldly and punched the ground!
How about the magic circle? Today, I will destroy you!
The orange-red magic roared and crashed into the ground!
The whole room began to shake! The surrounding glass was instantly shattered!
The magic circle flashed incoherently, and dense cracks spread rapidly around with Xiaopo as the center!
Seeing that the magic circle was about to dissipate! Kings’ eyes appeared out of nowhere after he recovered from his shock. He flew up and pressed a stone that was almost half a person’s height to the edge of the magic circle!
“It’s Black Crystal again!” Xiaopo roared, “And you still say it’s not you!”
Xiaopo exerted force with his feet and was about to rush forward, but there seemed to be a tremendous force under his feet, which pulled Xiaopo to the spot!
The magic power of the black crystal has penetrated into the magic circle and poured out from under Xiaopo’s feet, covering Xiaopo’s feet layer by layer, and constantly climbing up! In just a moment, the sticky and dense magic power has covered Xiaopo’s legs!
The man with gold-rimmed glasses stood up in embarrassment, but laughed wildly with excitement!
Xiao Po stared angrily at the laughing mouth, but he could no longer hear any sound! He took a final breath, and the light in front of him completely disappeared!
Xiaopo was completely wrapped in magic power, and the black magic power continued to climb upwards, layer by layer, and then slowly dripped down…
The men in Zhongshan suits finally put away their stance and breathed a long sigh of relief!
The man with gold-rimmed glasses finally stopped laughing, looked angrily at the small hole in the center of the magic circle, and spat fiercely on the ground: “I’ll let you go crazy!”
Just at this moment!
With a loud bang!
The small broken door was kicked to pieces, and the fragments flew towards the man with gold-rimmed glasses!
The man with gold-rimmed glasses screamed, and the man in the Zhongshan suit next to him flew forward and raised his palm in the air. A layer of light shield blocked all the fragments!
“Who is it?!” the man in the Zhongshan suit roared, looking at the figure at the door of the room!
A strong smell of alcohol came from the door…
“I’m his keeper!”
Chapter 7: Xiaopo is possessed by the devil (old version)
Professor Xin was leaning against the door holding a wine jug, her messy hair tied into a ponytail at the back of her head. If Xiaopo saw Professor Xin at this moment, he would definitely be surprised by the strangeness in Professor Xin’s eyes!
“Caregiver? What’s the caregiver doing here?” Gold-rimmed glasses seemed to be in high spirits. He pushed aside the Zhongshan suit in front of him and shouted, “Didn’t you receive the notice?!”
Professor Xin rolled his eyes disdainfully and pulled out a tablet from behind him. However, it seemed that there were sparks coming out of the tablet…
“What are you talking about?” Professor Xin pinched the tablet with two fingers and threw it aside: “My hands are shaking, I broke it~”
“Very good, then I will officially inform you now!” The man with gold-rimmed glasses stepped forward and casually showed his ID: “Our institute has taken over this matter, you…”
“Did you misunderstand something?” Professor Xin interrupted the gold-rimmed glasses, hung the wine flask back on his waist, and clasped his hands in front of his chest: “I’m here to protect you!”
“What nonsense are you talking about?!” said the man with gold-rimmed glasses dissatisfiedly.
Professor Xin did not continue this topic. He turned his eyes and looked calmly at the black crystal that sealed Xiaopo!
A very slight humming sound started at some point…
The first person to react was the other man in a white coat behind the gold-rimmed glasses. He held a tablet in his hands and shouted in disbelief, “Magic power is increasing rapidly!”
Everyone couldn’t help but focus their attention on Xiaopo again!
But what attracted more attention than the little broken thing that was sealed and unable to move were the scattered glass fragments on the ground!
Countless fragments seemed to have come to life and began to jump randomly!
Soon after, the ground began to tremble, the walls began to shake, the furniture tilted, the lights flickered, and more and more objects began to jump, until finally, even the people in Zhongshan suits began to lose their balance!
And all this means only one thing!
“Increase the energy of the magic circle! Spare crystal! Where is the spare crystal?!”
The man with gold-rimmed glasses shouted anxiously, and the other men in white coats had already started to get busy, hurriedly placing the other four crystals in the four corners of the magic circle that trapped Xiaopo.
Together with the original one, the five black crystals formed the shape of a pentagram!
Above the magic circle, a long black light flickered.
Finally, the ground stopped shaking!
A smile appeared on Kings’s face…
But at this moment, Professor Xin stood up straight: “Guards, retreat, if you don’t want to die in vain~”
“What nonsense are you talking about!” The man with gold-rimmed glasses turned his head angrily and said in a bad tone: “You have nothing to do here, leave now!”
Professor Xin ignored him and looked at one of the men in Zhongshan suits: “No matter who gave you the order today, this is all I have to say. Take care of yourself~”
“Get out! Otherwise…” the man with gold-rimmed glasses roared.
“Magic power! It’s still increasing…” The man in the white coat who had been looking at the tablet in his hand suddenly interrupted Kings. Without paying attention to the dissatisfied look of the man in the gold-rimmed glasses, the man in the white coat looked at the field in disbelief, his face full of horror!
Involuntarily, the man with gold-rimmed glasses turned his head and looked at the magic circle, the crystal, and Xiaopo again!
The shaking started again, and the fragments on the ground began to dance again. The energy in the five black crystals was like a flood that had been opened. Under the gaze of everyone, it was absorbed to the bottom by the magic circle in the blink of an eye!
Several black crystals have turned from dark to transparent~
The light of the pentagram disappeared, and all the black gathered on Xiaopo! The sticky and dense magic seemed to be solidifying, slowly turning into a layer of black shell! No one knew how long this thin shell could last!
At this time, the only thing that sealed Xiaopo was the magic circle under the feet of the Zhongshan suits, which was still struggling to support it.
“What’s going on?” The men in Zhongshan suits looked at the man with gold-rimmed glasses in confusion.
The man with gold-rimmed glasses just looked at the black crystal in front of him in surprise! He kept repeating in his mouth: “Impossible! This is impossible!”
The leader in the Zhongshan suit had realized that he couldn’t count on the gold-rimmed glasses, so he subconsciously ordered, “Prepare for battle!”
“Imitations? Bringing replicas with you, are you here to die?” Professor Xin said mockingly, and walked into the room with magic power protecting his whole body. Between his palms, lightning and thunder flashed: “Disperse! Leave now, you can still survive!”
“You are…” One of the Zhongshan suits seemed to have recognized Professor Xin’s identity from this magic: “Why are you here to be a caretaker?”
Professor Xin did not answer because it was not important! At this critical moment, he still had the mind to ask such a question!
What really matters is!
“The Guard will never retreat when the mission is at hand!”
The captain in the Zhongshan suit answered firmly, but he took over the previous words! After that, his eyes were like lightning, locking onto the little broken man in the field!
This kid is definitely more than what the intelligence says! There is a problem inside, someone is trying to please the institute! Someone is hiding information! Hiding a lot of things!
But now is not the time to think about these things! Because the black shell has cracks! Maybe in the next second, the child will rush out! At that time, all they have to do is fight to the end!
However, at this moment, Professor Xin had already flown up! He stepped into the air, but it seemed as if he had broken the space, and the explosion instantly attracted everyone!
The next second, Professor Xin stepped on this only magic circle!
Magic power surged out! Lightning raged on the magic circle, roaring wantonly on the magic circle! The black crystals that had become transparent could no longer hold on and exploded one after another. The shaky magic circle could no longer hold on. With an ominous tearing sound, countless cracks instantly spread across the entire magic circle!
“Because of what you said just now, I will save your lives today!” Professor Xin’s words came out clearly amid the thunder and lightning, and there was somehow a hint of excitement in his serious tone!
But the men in Zhongshan suits before me…
“What are you doing?” the men in Zhongshan suits shouted!
“No, no!” Seeing the black crystal explode into powder, the man with gold-rimmed glasses seemed to have just come to his senses. He didn’t care about the black crystals in the yard breaking apart, and suddenly shouted: “We can’t wait for him to completely absorb the black crystal energy! The sealing spell is useless, remove the magic circle, attack! Destroy him!”
The next second, there was a loud bang, and the black shell exploded!
Gold-rimmed glasses are right! We can’t wait until Xiaopo absorbs the black crystal energy!
But he was still a step too late!
Amidst the scattered black fragments, a figure flew up! The orange-red magic glowed with black light, and in the blink of an eye, he had already rushed out of the encirclement!
Wherever it passed, the magic crushed everything!
The ferocious face was clearly reflected on the lenses of the gold-rimmed glasses!
Hu Xiaopo!
But is the person with ominous magic rising from his body still Hu Xiaopo?
“The Dark Lord!” The man with gold-rimmed glasses squeezed out a few words with difficulty. Then, without paying any attention to the throat that was already pinched in Xiaopo’s palm, he shouted hysterically: “Notify the headquarters! It’s the Dark Lord!”
“kill!”
Chapter 8 Crazy Woman (Old Version)
“Kill!” It seemed to be a response to the gold-rimmed glasses!
The Zhongshan suits shouted in unison! Each of them used their own magic skills and rushed forward!
Xiao Po turned his head, his angry eyes were as black as ink! The magic power roared in the air, like a dragon’s roar! The magic power condensed into substance and swept over in an instant!
The men in Zhongshan suits skillfully put up their shields!
But the next second!
“Idiot?!” Professor Xin shouted, “Can a shield block magic of this level? Who do you think you are?”
The shield shattered and the men in Zhongshan suits retreated in a hurry!
However, it was too late!
The men in Zhongshan suits looked at the strange magic that was about to crush everything with despair, and it was right before their eyes!
At this moment, a wine jug appeared in the air with magic!
Magic collided, and the orange-red magic power shattered the wine jug with just one strike. Under the huge impact, the wine mist instantly diffused in the air!
But at this moment, a flame ignited! It instantly ignited all the wine mist!
The huge ball of fire enveloped Xiaopo’s magic power and burned fiercely!
The ominousness dissipated in the flames, and the orange-red was being replaced by heat!
But that is the magic of the Son of Darkness mixed with the magic power of black crystal!
As the orange-red color was tearing at the flames madly, streams of black magic were quietly flowing into it!
The darkness gradually thickened and the flames slowly faded away, but Professor Xin seemed to be completely unaware of it. He used some magic to push the people in Zhongshan suits and white coats away!
Let the flame that was condensed with great difficulty be dispersed by Xiaopo’s magic power!
Professor Xin moved forward and came in front of Xiaopo!
“Let’s have a fight!?”
Professor Xin spoke unscrupulously to this little brat, staring with his gold-rimmed glasses at this crazy woman in disbelief!
“Are you crazy? He is…”
The man with gold-rimmed glasses roared!
But the sound of the tiger’s roar made everyone realize what the biggest trouble was now!
The man with gold-rimmed glasses never thought he could fly!
The little boy who threw away his gold-rimmed glasses started swinging his fist!
The sound of breaking through the air rang out! The magic wrapped in the little broken fist actually tore the space apart with just one punch!
Professor Xin quickly dodged Xiaopo’s fist accurately!
“That’s it!”
Professor Xin taunted, but the next second, the magic power that had clearly dodged knocked Professor Xin out!
“impossible!”
“It’s obviously already…”
The men in Zhongshan suits not far away shouted, they clearly saw everything, Professor Xin dodged, really, cleanly dodged! He even left a large space to deal with the range sweep of magic!
“What the hell is that?”
Professor Xin, who was knocked flying, cursed in a low voice, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, pressed one hand on the wound on his abdomen, and a white light came on, indicating that treatment had begun!
“With this level of magic, nothing is worth being surprised about no matter what happens!” Professor Xin said, and he got into position again. However, the situation before him made Professor Xin’s face look solemn!
Yes!
Xiaopo’s magic power has changed again!
The dark magic power stopped raging and slowly surged back. The magic power, which was so thick that it was substantial, wrapped around Xiaopo’s body! The burning magic power was evaporating! But at this moment, it returned to calm!
Professor Xin noticed everything, looked into Xiaopo’s eyes, and shook his head helplessly!
Black! Still black! That means Xiaopo is still running wild without reason! But how can a running magic be so calm! Even the ominous feeling has been removed!
Professor Xin subconsciously reached for his waist, but then he realized that the wine jug was gone!
“What a good thing you did!” Professor Xin spat fiercely on the ground and cursed in a low voice!
At this time, Xiaopo seemed to have completed the condensation of magic. He took a stance and stretched out one hand!
“This is! The opening move?!” The man with gold-rimmed glasses endured the pain and tried hard to support his body that was vomiting blood from the fall. He shouted in surprise: “Who taught him martial arts! Who!”
“Why are you talking so much nonsense!” Professor Xin cursed, who was also surprised!
Watching someone stealing the art is one thing, but learning it properly is another! Based on Xiaopo’s flawless opening moves, Professor Xin can be sure that there must be someone else around this boy in the prophecy!
Professor Xin got into a stance, and after the same salute, he suddenly exerted force on his feet and rushed towards Xiaopo!
The Zhongshan suits finally understood why Professor Xin’s ability was chosen to be the caretaker! Only someone with such ability could be the caretaker of Xiaopo!
A series of sounds of breaking through the air were heard!
Every move of Professor Xin can also break through space!
The simple and unpretentious moves, punches and kicks, the magic power, could actually block Xiaopo’s magic at this time! That was magic mixed with black crystals, and it was running wild!
A glimmer of hope rose in everyone’s hearts!
This is by no means a dead end!
As long as this space can hold up! As long as this crazy woman, no, this unusual caretaker can hold up!
“Hold on!” The man with gold-rimmed glasses shouted excitedly, trying to control himself and swallowing the next sentence! That is: reinforcements are on the way!
But what the man with gold-rimmed glasses waited for was not Professor Xin’s answer, but in the fierce battle, Xiaopo turned around and gave a weird smile!
Pitch-black pupils and a weird smile! The man with gold-rimmed glasses swore that he would live in this horrible psychological shadow for the rest of his life!
Xiaopo turned his head, as if some mysterious switch was turned on!
Professor Xin subconsciously realized the change! The timing was too good, it happened to be stuck in the gap when a set of boxing techniques was completely completed!
Not good! As Professor Xin thought, magic gathered in front of him. He waved his arms, changed to another set of punches, and blasted out magic, ready to distance himself!
But Xiaopo had already turned back at this time!
That weird smile has disappeared, and the ominous feeling fills the room again!
The magic was no longer restrained, and the black magic power began to dance wildly in the room along with Xiaopo’s movements!
Professor Xin’s face changed drastically! Without waiting for his moves to become old, he quickly retracted his moves and returned to defense! While protecting himself with both hands, he stepped back!
pity……
Xiaopo’s fist has already been thrown!
A simple straight punch, but it released a shocking momentum!
The magic tore through space and headed straight for Professor Xin’s face! Professor Xin quickly dodged and rushed forward with both palms to block the punch!
A strong wind blew, making the surroundings roar!
However, in Professor Xin’s surprised eyes, Xiaopo’s moves changed again!
“This is……”
Anyone around who knew a little about martial arts cried out in surprise.
There is no such thing as equality, and no hope of breaking the deadlock!
Hold on? Now that just sounds like a joke!
This kid restrained his magic, just to learn a few more martial arts changes? !
What’s wrong with this kid? Hasn’t he gone berserk? Where does all this calculation come from! ?
But, this is a fight!
Regardless of life or death, it is a battle for life!
There is not even time to think too much, let alone be surprised!
Since it is my own move! Since it is the variation I taught!
Very good, let’s have a good fight!
Professor Xin pulled back his palms, turned around and stepped back, twisted his body and elbowed back, swung his arms, grabbed Xiao Po’s attacking hands, pulled them back, and suddenly pushed his hands forward!
“Turn around and swing the lotus!”
“Twin peaks piercing my ears?”
The men in Zhongshan suits couldn’t help but shout out their moves!
But Professor Xin shouted loudly!
“White Ape Fresh Peach!”
Chapter 9: A Little Clearness (Old Version)
“White Ape Fresh Peach!” Professor Xin shouted, “Let me show you what martial arts is!”
Professor Xin’s palms suddenly pushed towards Xiaopo’s jaw! Black magic quickly rushed towards Professor Xin’s palms, trying to block this blow that could turn the situation around!
However, martial arts! You can’t just stop them if you want to!
A huge force and a loud bang!
Xiaopo flew backwards!
The initiative has been lost, the center of gravity is unstable! If we don’t pursue now, when will we? !
“Martial arts? You’re far from that!”
Professor Xin shouted, flew up, and with one palm he wiped away Xiaopo’s defensive magic, then chased after Xiaopo and hit him!
Tai Chi in literature brings peace to the world, and Baji in martial arts shakes the universe!
Both real and virtual, both hard and soft, these two skills have been integrated into Professor Xin’s body!
With two palms leaving afterimages, magic exploded in the air!
Professor Xin gradually dissipated Xiaopo’s magic power!
As the black color around Xiaopo became lighter and lighter, his black pupils were also slowly recovering!
Suddenly Xiaopo spat out a mouthful of blood, which sprayed all over Professor Xin’s body and face!
Professor Xin subconsciously blocked his eyes with his right hand, while continuing his attack with his left hand!
But at this moment, Professor Xin felt his palm was empty! The next second, his wrist was firmly grasped by magic!
Xiao Po stood in front of him, blood hanging from his mouth, his terrifying eyes still full of darkness! A voice like hell rang in Xiao Po’s throat: “Enough!”
not good!
Professor Xin gathered all his magic and used his knife to cut the magic on his wrist!
But that dark magic has a crystal-like luster!
“Black Crystal! This is the real Black Crystal!”
Kings eyes shouted with his broken voice!
“I know!” Professor Xin cursed in a low voice: “If it weren’t for you…”
There is no time to continue, Xiaopo has already rushed up again!
“help!”
Everyone saw that the situation was not good, and the men in Zhongshan suits rushed forward shouting!
Professor Xin did not try to stop him, nor did he have time to do so! He grabbed the magic that was clamped on his wrist, exerted force with his feet, turned around and jumped up, kicking towards Xiao Po with both feet!
This is!
It’s like a ray of clarity in the darkness!
In the dark space, a firefly flashed!
“This is a move I used!”
“Wait, who am I?!”
“Where am I?!”
“What’s going on?!”
Pictures flashed through Xiaopo’s mind!
The battle on the way back! Everyone in Hogwarts! The mockingjay in the infirmary! Chaos in the forbidden forest! Laughter in the DA! Fear in the eyes of strangers! The Leaky Cauldron! Portkey! Fatty! Xiaowen! CG!
“Who am I!” Xiaopo screamed in his heart: “I know you, I know all of you, but who am I?!”
“You are…” CG stood in front of me coolly!
“You are…” Selena rolled her eyes at him like he was an idiot!
“You are…” Hermione walked over lovingly!
“Who are you……”
DAs, professors, Xiaopo’s friends! More and more people came to Xiaopo! Everyone seemed to be telling Xiaopo! But Xiaopo couldn’t hear clearly no matter what!
A layer of black magic blocked Xiaopo and everyone else!
“who I am!?”
Xiaopo roared loudly and covered his head tightly!
It’s pitch black all around!
Suddenly, a firefly flashed in the darkness!
So dim, so weak! But enough to start a prairie fire!
“Little broken~”
“Hu Xiaopo…”
The sound was so soft that it couldn’t be any softer, but it shattered all the darkness!
“Yes, I am! I am Hu Xiaopo!”
There was nothing standing in the way of the crowd, and everyone gathered around Xiaopo!
The darkness dissipated, and Xiaopo’s pupils regained color! But in front of him!
“Why am I covering my head!”
“What’s with this blood?”
“What’s going on here?”
“Why is Professor Xin looking at me with wounds all over his body?”
“What’s going on with all these people on the ground?”
“Who are these people in white coats?”
“Is that a Zhongshan suit?!”
“This is my room?!”
“I am……”
Xiaopo looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief, then looked down at his hands. Xiaopo only felt that his body was losing strength!
When I looked up again, Professor Xin was gone!
A huge force hit him, and Xiaopo felt a faint gust of wind on the back of his neck. He subconsciously turned sideways and fought back!
Xiao Po watched in amazement as the body moved smoothly, the magic gathered naturally, and he raised his palm to counterattack! Is this, a martial art? !
But in the end, everything went black and he passed out…
Professor Xin looked at his empty hand in surprise! Has he improved so much in just one fight?
But Professor Xin didn’t have much time to think!
“Successful?” The men in Zhongshan suits lying on the ground asked subconsciously.
Professor Xin shook his head. Did it work? But it clearly didn’t hit the target! It was the child who fainted on his own!
But why?
What about that other kind of magic that suddenly appeared?
Bang bang bang bang!
The sound of breaking through the air continued to sound! More and more people in Zhongshan suits rushed in!
“Here! Here!” The man with gold-rimmed glasses struggled to get up: “This child is out of control, we must…”
“Shut up!” Professor Xin roared in disgust, pulling off the rubber band behind his head, causing his already messy hair to hang in front of his eyes.
The man with gold-rimmed glasses ignored him and continued to shout, “That child absorbed the black crystal energy! Kingsley is lying! Now there is no seal that can control him! We must…”
“Shut up!” another loud voice shouted.
“Do you understand or not! This kid…” The man with gold-rimmed glasses replied angrily, but after seeing the men in Zhongshan suits clearly, the man in straight military uniform shut his mouth silently!
“Are you okay?” The man in military uniform ignored everyone else, walked straight to Professor Xin, took off his hat, and squatted down.
Professor Xin looked up, did not answer, and spread out his palms.
The man in military uniform handed over a wine jug with a smile!
Professor Xin unscrewed the lid, gulped down a big mouthful, and then heaved a long sigh of satisfaction. His bloodstained hands lightly pressed on his military uniform, propped himself up, took another sip of wine, and left without saying anything.
The man in military uniform looked at the dirty handprints on his uniform helplessly and shook his head.
After an unknown amount of time, Xiaopo was awakened by his stomach…
Looking out the window at the deepening night, Xiaopo’s stomach started growling again!
“How long have I slept?”
Xiaopo muttered and wanted to go find some snacks. When he was asleep, the bed was full of snacks, but now…
“Where’s my delicious food?”
Xiaopo was muttering, and Xiaoxiaopo seemed to understand, and pushed the dried meat beside him into the cage with his foot.
When Xiaopo heard the sound, he subconsciously looked towards Xiaoxiaopo’s cage and the bags of snacks next to it.
The face of Xiao Xiao Po that was not covered by feathers slowly turned red unnaturally. Awkwardly, he took out a bag of unopened snacks from behind him and flew to Xiao Po’s side!
Xiaopo looked at Xiaopo speechlessly and picked up the snacks, but he felt weak from time to time.
“Isn’t it possible that I’m going to have hypoglycemia from hunger? No, I have to go find Uncle Fatty!”
Xiaopo was about to get out of bed, but at this moment, a burst of meaty aroma wafted in from outside the window.
Chapter 10 Eat something? (Old version)
Xiaopo subconsciously stuck his head out and saw Professor Xin holding a plate of dishes. A plate of shredded pork with green peppers, and a plate of diced chicken with spicy sauce! It was still steaming!
The little guy couldn’t help but drool!
“Would you like to eat something?” Professor Xin asked, looking at Xiaopo’s appearance.
“Okay!” Xiaopo happily jumped out of the window and into the yard: “I’ll help you get it!”
“Go, go, go!” Professor Xin shouted in disgust, “Go wash your hands!”
Xiaopo looked at his hands, smiled embarrassedly and ran to wash his hands. When he came back, a small low table only knee-high was placed under the big tree in the yard.
There were four dishes on the table, in addition to shredded pork with green peppers and diced chicken with spicy sauce, there was also a plate of peanuts, a plate of bamboo shoots and eggs, and two bowls of fragrant white rice on both sides of the table! Professor Xin held the wine pot, glanced at Xiao Po, and picked up the chopsticks to eat.
Xiaopo happily pulled a stool over and sat on the other side. He picked up the chopsticks and put them down hesitantly: “It’s not good business during the day. I didn’t mean to destroy your protection spell. Protection spells are usually not used to deal with…”
“Let’s eat!” Professor Xin interrupted Xiaopo, picked up the wine jug and poured himself a glass.
Xiaopo could smell the pungent smell of alcohol clearly across the table.
He secretly glanced at Professor Xin again, then picked up the chopsticks and started eating voraciously!
After refilling the rice bowl twice, Xiaopo ate the last grain of rice in the bowl, then put down his chopsticks contentedly, smiled foolishly, leaned back in his chair, raised his head, and looked up at the sky.
“Home-cooked meals are still more comfortable~” Xiaopo burped contentedly.
“Is the food at Hogwarts bad?” Professor Xin had finished eating long ago and was sitting aside, waving a palm-leaf fan.
“I can’t say it’s bad. I’m not used to Western food. It’s okay to eat it occasionally, but I’ll get tired of it after a long time.” Xiaopo closed his eyes and answered nonchalantly.
Professor Xin chuckled and did not answer.
The two of them sat quietly under the big tree, enjoying the summer evening breeze.
I don’t know if it’s magic, but no mosquito dares to appear around the two of them~
Xiaopo lay there comfortably for a long time, and felt that he was about to fall asleep again, so he sat up reluctantly: “Professor Xin, is there anything else? I’ll leave first?”
“Clear the table!” Professor Xin said without raising his head, waving a palm-leaf fan.
“Ah?” Xiaopo replied reluctantly, but still picked up the plate helplessly.
Professor Xin glanced at Xiaopo and said, “Just use magic. I won’t tell anyone. It’s okay.”
Xiao Po was stunned at first, then he jumped back from the window excitedly, found his wand, jumped out again, and concentrated for a while before pointing at the table and saying, “Sweep away the whirlwind!”
Professor Xin’s eyes twitched unnaturally, and he quickly opened his eyes, waved a palm-leaf fan, and blocked Xiaopo’s magic!
I watched as the magic bounced off the fan and headed straight for the sky! There was a loud bang, like a brilliant firework!
“Are you going to smash the pot and bowl?” Professor Xin scolded, and glared at Xiao Po: “How did you learn it in Hogwarts?”
“I’m in Hogwarts…” Xiaopo scratched his head embarrassedly and smiled awkwardly: “It doesn’t matter, what matters is that the food you cook is so delicious!”
“Get lost,” Professor Xin cursed, closing his eyes again. “Go back quickly, and don’t mention me if the administrator finds out.”
“No, Uncle Fatty is on duty. Besides, I jumped out of the window and no one knew.” Xiao Po smiled, put away his wand, picked up the plate and walked towards the sink!
Professor Xin rolled his eyes at Xiaopo and said, “Your uncle was on the night shift last night…”
“Ah?” Xiaopo was washing the dishes and answered absentmindedly, “It shouldn’t be…”
Professor Xin snorted: “What day do you think it is today? You’ve already slept for a whole day and a whole night!”
“What!” Xiao Po stood up straight: “Impossible!”
With a loud crash, the plate fell into the sink.
Professor Xin walked over, fanning himself with a palm-leaf fan, and stared at Xiaopo through the gaps in his hair.
Xiaopo smiled awkwardly: “You can fix it, restore it to its original state, simple magic~”
After giving Xiaopo a blank look, Professor Xin waved his palm-leaf fan, fixed the plate, and sat back under the tree.
Xiaopo simply helped Professor Xin clean up and then jumped back into the room!
Lying in bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
“That’s right. After all, I’ve slept for a whole day and night. But how could this happen? Is there something wrong with my body again?”
Xiaopo muttered to himself, looking at his hands. He came to the table and took out his textbook. But after a long time, he found himself still on the page he had opened at the beginning. His mind was in a mess. He always felt that he was different from yesterday, no, the day before yesterday! He always felt that many people had come here! He always felt that he was better than before! But is this good or bad?
Xiao Xiaopo fell by the window and looked at Xiaopo with his head tilted.
“How about writing a letter?”
Xiaopo looked at Xiaoxiaopo mumbling meaninglessly there, smiled at himself, and took out a pen and paper from his schoolbag.
Kingsley slammed his fist on the coffee table angrily!
“How long do you want me to wait?” Kingsley pointed at the man in military uniform in front of him and said, “I’m telling you, if you don’t give me an explanation today, any consequences…”
“Consequences?!” The uniformed man asked fearlessly, “Do you want to know the consequences of violating the agreement and concealing Hu Xiaopo’s situation? Do you want to know how much our actions yesterday cost because of the information you concealed? Consequences! I don’t care what you did in the past, but now you have no right to shout and make decisions in our place! Please return to your seats and wait quietly, otherwise, please do as you please!”
“You!” Kingsley roared angrily: “Believe it or not…”
“What do you believe or not?!” the military-turned-man asked angrily.
Suddenly, the office door opened, and a vigorous old man came out. He had white hair and a youthful face, and was wearing a dark blue brocade Tang suit that was well-dressed.
“Who made our Minister of Magic angry?” The old man smiled and laughed.
“Teacher.” The man in military uniform bowed.
“Mr. Kong,” Kingsley looked at the old man, restraining his anger: “Can I come in?”
The teacher waved his hand and looked at Kingsley: “Mr. Minister, if you have any questions, it’s the same if you tell me.”
“Is this your attitude?!” Kingsley looked at the old man, and the anger he had just suppressed ignited again: “I came here in person and waited outside for so long, which is enough to prove my sincerity! You still have this attitude now, very good, it seems that you have made up your mind…”
“Minister~” The old man interrupted Kingsley with a long tone, and winked at the military man, indicating that he should ask Kingsley to sit down.
Kingsley snorted coldly, sat down angrily, and turned his head to the side!
Seeing Kingsley like this, the old man smiled, sat down next to him, and poured a cup of tea for Kingsley: “This is the best Mingqian Longjing tea. Try it. It would be a pity to waste it…”
“I didn’t come here for tea!” Kingsley said angrily.
“Watch your attitude!” The man in military uniform stepped forward!
The old man just waved his hand and still kept smiling.
Kingsley rolled his eyes at the man in military uniform and said, “If you really want to talk, show your attitude and ask that old man to come see me! He can’t hide in the dark forever!”
“Shut up!” the man in military uniform shouted angrily, and with one hand clenched, a ball of magic condensed in his palm.
But the teacher laughed: “You are joking. Leaders have never escaped from anything.”
The old man still kept smiling, poured himself a cup of tea, blew away the hot steam, took a sip, and then said: “So do you want to see our leader, or do you want to bring someone back from the Supervision Department?”
Chapter 11 Compromised Kingsley (Old Version)
“So do you want to meet our leader, or do you want to bring someone back from the Supervisory Department?”
Kingsley was stunned and looked at the old man in confusion.
But the old man smiled, put down his teacup, took out a list from his pocket, and gently pushed it in front of Kingsley.
“This is our sincerity…” The old man smiled and looked at Kingsley.
Kingsley took the list suspiciously and read it carefully. But until the end, Kingsley still didn’t see the name he wanted to see!
“Why did you detain Scout?” Kingsley asked aggressively, but his tone was slightly slower than before.
The old man picked up the teacup in front of Kingsley, poured out the slightly cooled tea, and slowly refilled it: “Minister, you don’t really think that it was us who did it?”
“What else? Why else would they be here with you?” Kingsley asked back.
“Then shouldn’t you thank us? We rescued the Inspectorate from the organization and returned it to you. Isn’t that a good thing?” The old man put the refilled teacup in front of Kingsley and raised his hand: “Please~”
Kingsley raised an eyebrow: “I mean…”
The old man raised his hand to interrupt Kingsley, indicating that Kingsley should drink his tea first.
Kingsley drank it all helplessly, but the temperature…
Holding back the protest in his throat, Kingsley looked at the old man and said, “You can tell me now…”
The old man shook his head helplessly, stood up and walked to the window: “The people are indeed here with us, but we didn’t do it. Someone pretended to be us and robbed the organization’s prison. Coupled with the last encirclement and suppression of the organization, it is estimated that the organization will take action against us again!”
“What a joke,” Kingsley snorted coldly, “Who could take so many people away right under the nose of the organization, and send them to you without anyone noticing!”
“It seems that you have seen the crux of the matter.” The old man turned around and looked at Kingsley: “Whether these people are dead or alive, whether the organization takes action against us or not, these are not important! What we should really worry about is the power demonstrated by this action!”
Kingsley was silent. He understood what the old man meant. If there really was such a powerful force hidden in the dark, then the current delicate situation might very well…
“Do you have any idea?” Kingsley asked with a frown, not daring to think about it too much.
“No,” the old man sighed, “That’s why it’s so scary! This is also why we are willing to return everyone to you unconditionally. If we work together, we will both benefit!”
“I understand.” Kingsley nodded. “So Scoob is not here with you?”
“Of course!” The old man’s face was full of sincerity.
Kingsley stood up, straightened his clothes, stretched out his hand and shook it in the old man’s hand: “I apologize for my initial attitude. Let’s arrange the handover of personnel…”
Two hours later, Kingsley reappeared in his own office in the Ministry of Magic. The moment he saw his office, the smile on Kingsley’s face disappeared instantly.
“What?” Harry Potter, who had been waiting for news on the chair next to him, suddenly stood up and asked.
“Not them!” Kingsley replied unhappily.
“Impossible! I saw their…”
Kingsley raised his hand and interrupted, “They said it wasn’t them!”
“You believed it? This is obviously an attempt to evade responsibility!” Harry asked in disbelief.
“They are willing to return the personnel! Does it matter whether you believe it or not?” Kingsley sat down behind his desk impatiently.
“All of them?” Harry was a little surprised and asked in confusion: “What do they want to do?”
“They’ve got Scooby-Doo,” Kingsley threw his hat on the table. “According to what they say, there was no Scooby-Doo among the people sent over with them.”
“So their target is Scourge?” Harry’s confusion did not diminish at all. “They robbed the prison of the Organization and returned the people to us, just for Scourge?”
“They made other demands!” Kingsley rubbed his forehead.
“What request?” Harry demanded.
Kingsley frowned even deeper, and after a long while he spoke with difficulty: “They want to send someone to Hogwarts.”
“Impossible!” Xiaopo shouted as he stood in front of the window, pointing at the still confused Xiao Xiaopo: “It has never made a mistake! How could it have crashed into a tree, fainted, and been picked up by you? Even if it was a mistake by Xiao Xiaopo, where is the letter?”
“How should I know?” Professor Xin answered nonchalantly, waving a palm-leaf fan.
Xiaopo narrowed his eyes and asked, “Did you intercept my letter?”
“Nonsense, who are you? I was sent here, how could your owl not be stopped?” Professor Xin fanned Xiaopo on the head with a palm-leaf fan: “What era is it now? You are still writing letters and causing trouble for everyone.”
Xiaopo pushed aside the palm leaf fan and said, “How dare you cast a spell on Xiaopo!”
Professor Xin rolled his eyes at Xiao Po and cursed, “Do I really need to do anything?”
“I’m going to fight you!” Xiao Po got so angry that he stepped on a chair and tried to climb out the window!
Professor Xin slapped Xiao Po on the head and pushed him back, then unscrewed the lid of the wine flask: “You can’t beat me, so don’t fight. If I were you, I would use your fake Galleon.”
“You! Me!” Little Brokeface’s face turned red, as if he had made a great decision: “I won’t use it…”
Professor Xin spit out the half-drunk wine and looked at Xiaopo with a complicated expression: “You, uh, not bad… Yeah, not bad!”
Looking at Professor Xin who was drinking and walking away, Xiaopo reluctantly put the still dazed Xiaoxiaopo back into the cage. He added some water and sat back on the bed.
The wand and textbooks were spread out on the bed, and Xiaopo let out a long sigh!
“What should I do about the make-up exams at the start of the school term?”
Xiao Po grabbed his head! Suddenly, Xiao Po raised his head abruptly, and rushed out the door with a silly smile: “Uncle Fat, Uncle Fat!”
In the dense jungle, a dilapidated hut was emitting smoke. The sun shone through the window sill and fell on the only bed in the hut. A bearded man sat on the bed, holding a cup and enjoying the evening sun.
“Can you please draw the curtains?” a hoarse voice came from the corner next to me.
The bearded man glanced at the black shadow hiding in the dark and ignored it.
The door was suddenly opened, and the sun shone into the corner. In the dark shadows, countless unpleasant complaints were heard, which were even more piercing than the creaking sound of the door.
Fortunately, the door was closed quickly.
The bearded man looked at the person who came and nodded.
The same cloak, the same mask, the same boy, the one who rescued them, but this time, the boy was carrying a not very big package on his shoulders.
The boy put the package on his body in the corner: “Are you still adapting here?”
“How long do we have to wait?” came the hoarse voice of the black shadow.
“Soon.” The boy answered, glanced at the bearded man, and sat down on the bed: “Have you thought about it?”
“We are willing to cooperate!” a hoarse voice answered first.
But the boy’s eyes were still fixed on the bearded man.
The bearded man held the cup, took a sip of the unknown liquid inside, and looked at the scenery outside the window: “How are the others?”
“We should have returned to the Ministry of Magic safely.” The boy sighed and followed the bearded man’s gaze to look out the window. The setting sun had stretched his shadow very long.
“Can you do that to him?” The bearded man turned his head to look at the young man. His voice was very soft, but very clear.
The boy shook his head and stood up: “If it must be so…”
Chapter 12 Erguotou! In a blue bottle! (Old version)
“Professor Xin!” Xiaopo called through the window.
Professor Xin, who was carrying a plate of food, turned his head and looked at Xiaopo, who was grinning foolishly, and said disdainfully, “You want to eat for free again? Didn’t you eat tonight?”
Xiaopo looked out the window and made sure that there was no one around, then he carefully raised his hand from behind to the window!
“Erguotou! The one in the blue bottle!” Xiaopo showed off proudly.
Professor Xin almost laughed out loud at Xiaopo’s appearance, and scolded him, “You are an idiot! Who am I? I can drink Moutai Fenjiu Xinghuacun, Xifeng Daqu Shuijingfang, Guojiao Special Supply, and aged fine wines. Why are you showing off to me with a bottle of Erguotou? Get lost! Go wash your hands!”
“Okay!” Xiaopo rolled over and jumped off the windowsill!
“Be careful, don’t drop the wine!” Professor Xin scolded, putting the dishes on the table.
It was still the low table under the tree, still two stools, still two meat dishes, one vegetable dish, and one cold dish, still two bowls of rice and one wine glass. Xiaopo sat skillfully on the side without the wine glass, clumsily twisted the bottle cap, and filled a full glass for Professor Xin. He placed it in front of Professor Xin and looked at him with a silly smile.
Professor Xin took a sip, picked up his chopsticks and started eating.
“Professor Xin, actually I want to…” Xiaopo said while holding the bowl.
“Eat first~”
After three rounds of wine, the dishes have five flavors.
Xiao Po was eating his meal absentmindedly. It wasn’t that the food wasn’t delicious, but he was just worried about something.
Professor Xin could see that, and he just ate. He drank the last glass of Erguotou in one gulp, and then ate a mouthful of roast pork happily. The fat and meat were smooth and not greasy. This is life~
“Go ahead.” Professor Xin put down his chopsticks, leaned back in his chair, and fanned himself with a palm-leaf fan.
Xiaopo quickly put down his bowl and chopsticks, grinned and said, “Looking at your skills, your magic level must be very high, right?”
Professor Xin rolled his eyes at Xiao Po and said, “Who can I compare my scores with? I can’t beat a few old guys, but the others…”
“That’s enough!” The silly smile on Xiaopo’s face became even brighter: “It’s enough that you are better than me. How about teaching me?”
“You?” Professor Xin waved a palm-leaf fan, not knowing whether he was thinking or taking a nap. After a while, he finally spoke: “Why do you want me to teach? In Hogwarts, the professor didn’t explain it clearly?”
“Of course not! I’m good at theory! It’s just that…” Xiaopo sighed helplessly: “You know about the black crystal demon slayer in my body. You are the caretaker, you must know. The seal prevented me from practicing magic for a whole year, so although I know the formulas and key points of magic, but… hey… you can see that every time I use magic, it’s not the same. I only have one summer vacation, and I have to take a make-up exam when school starts. If I don’t pass, I will have to repeat the grade, but what should I do? I feel these two days that the magic power is clearly there, but as long as I cast a spell, the magic is… how to say, a wild horse that has broken free from its reins, gushing out uncontrollably. I don’t dare to practice casually now, I’m afraid of blowing something up again. So I was thinking, can you guide me and teach me how to control magic.”
Professor Xin covered her belly with a palm-leaf fan, closed her eyes and said nothing. Xiaopo waited quietly beside her until…
“call……”
“Hey!” Xiaopo roared in dissatisfaction!
“Ah?” Professor Xin woke up and looked around in confusion: “We’re done eating, pack it up and go back to sleep!”
“What’s wrong with you?” Xiaopo resisted the urge to curse!
“Hahahaha,” Professor Xin waved his palm-leaf fan and said, “For the sake of this bottle of wine, please gather some magic power for me.”
Xiao Po rolled his eyes at Professor Xin, then raised his hand and magic condensed in his palm.
Professor Xin straightened up, pushed the hair out of his eyes, and looked at Xiaopo: “Isn’t this great? At your age, your level is already very good. Don’t forget, you didn’t even use a wand. There are not many senior students in your school who can do this, right?”
“But I don’t know how to change! I can’t control it every time!” Xiaopo gestured on his palm.
“Control?” Professor Xin asked in confusion, “Why control it? Your magic power is so strong, why control it! If the magic wants to come out, just let it out! I won’t tell anyone, it’s okay~”
“It will explode!” Xiaopo used the most concise words he could think of to express the most important part that was obviously overlooked in his description just now!
“Oh. Then release the magic power, but don’t change yet~” Professor Xin put down the palm-leaf fan and said while tying her ponytail.
“Are you sure?” Xiaopo hesitated.
“Yeah!” Professor Xin nodded with interest. His expression didn’t look like he had just drunk a bottle of Erguotou by himself.
Xiao Po sighed helplessly, took a few steps back, spread his hands, and surging magic rushed out! The black and red magic instantly attached to Xiao Po’s whole body, like a ball of fire, steaming and burning behind Xiao Po~
“Wow!” Professor Xin couldn’t help but exclaimed, stood up, and looked around Xiaopo carefully: “It’s worthy of being a legendary existence~ This magic power is about to take shape.”
“What is that?” Xiaopo asked puzzled.
“It doesn’t matter. Come on, let’s try casting a spell~” Professor Xin said as he stepped back a few steps to make room.
“I’ve already told you that I can’t control it. Are you listening to what I’m saying?” Xiaopo said impatiently. The magic on his body instantly became ferocious and roared towards Professor Xin!
Professor Xin quickly took two steps back and dodged: “You said you can’t control it…”
“I…” Xiaopo was also surprised at the change in magic power: “I didn’t mean it.”
“Let’s fight!” Professor Xin narrowed his eyes and said with a smile.
“What?”
Xiaopo felt that he must have heard it wrong, but at this time Professor Xin had already taken up his stance and threw a punch straight at Xiaopo’s face!
Xiao Po quickly stepped back to block, and the magic in his body instantly rushed towards Professor Xin’s fist. Professor Xin attached a ball of fire to the palm of his hand, spread out his five fingers, and a raging fire suddenly sprang up!
The orange-red magic power retreated instantly, leaving only a touch of pure black wrapped around the flame!
“The magic power of Black Crystal is quite good~” Professor Xin praised. Without waiting for the magic to burn out, he pulled with both hands to disperse the magic. He exerted force with his feet and kicked with a flying knee, chasing after Xiao Po!
Xiaopo quickly pressed down with both hands and pressed down Professor Xin’s knees. Professor Xin moved down and hit Xiaopo’s shoulder with his elbow!
Xiaopo is in pain!
The sound of a tiger roaring suddenly rang out! The magic power in his body surged uncontrollably towards Professor Xin!
Professor Xin spread his hands with a smile!
What kind of move is this?
Xiaopo was distracted, and the black and red magic had already enveloped Professor Xin!
“No! Stop!”
Xiaopo roared in his heart and rushed forward anxiously!
Chapter 13: Xiaopo’s Magic (Old Version)
As if it understood Xiaopo’s call, the magic power surged back at the same time Xiaopo opened his mouth. Xiaopo felt dizzy for a while, but fortunately the magic power had returned to calm again~
Professor Xin still smiled and spread his hands, looking at Xiaopo who had a confused look on his face.
“Your magic power can be used as you wish. What else do you need me to teach you?” Professor Xin took off the rubber band behind his head and fiddled with it randomly.
“That doesn’t count…” Xiaopo explained helplessly.
“Why doesn’t this count?” Professor Xin sat back on the stool, picked up the wine jug and took another sip.
“It’s too crude. I need to control magic to do normal things, those most basic spells.” Xiaopo was a little anxious. He didn’t know how to describe his thoughts. Suddenly he thought of what CG said before: “I need magic to make some subtle changes, preferably…”
“The most extreme change?” Professor Xin said the rest of the words for Xiaopo.
Xiaopo was surprised that Professor Xin knew what CG had said, but he nodded subconsciously.
“The most powerful magic, the most extreme transformation.” Professor Xin looked up at the sky, and he was sighing: “You are quite ambitious. It’s a pity that I am not good at the transformation of magic power.”
“It doesn’t have to be that extreme. Just some ordinary transformations will do. At least some basic magic…” Xiaopo quickly explained, put away his magic power, and sat down across from him again: “It will be enough to cope with the make-up exams before the start of the school year.”
“That’s easy~” Professor Xin started fanning himself with the palm-leaf fan again.
“Simple?” Xiaopo asked in surprise.
“Clean this place up,” Professor Xin said nonchalantly, “Use magic!”
“You want to watch fireworks again?” Xiaopo rolled his eyes, stood up and reached out to wash the dishes.
Professor Xin, however, used a palm-leaf fan to fend off Xiao Po: “I told you to use magic. Sit down!”
Xiaopo stood aside helplessly: “You said it, I don’t care if it explodes~”
“Okay~” Professor Xin said in a long tone: “Sit down first!”
Xiaopo shook his head and sat back in his chair: “Sit down now, I’m going to cast a spell.”
“Hey, what’s the hurry?” Professor Xin interrupted, fanning himself with a palm-leaf fan and said lazily, “Close your eyes and take a nap first.”
“I haven’t cleaned up yet!” Xiaopo leaned back in his chair helplessly and closed his eyes.
“What are you thinking about?” Professor Xin asked casually.
“I didn’t think much…” Xiaopo answered perfunctorily.
“Very good~”
“cut……”
Professor Xin spoke casually, and Xiaopo responded nonchalantly.
Quiet summer night, leisurely evening breeze…
Professor Xin smiled, feeling the barely perceptible magic that was inadvertently seeping out of Xiaopo.
Safe, elegant, pure, peaceful…
“That’s great~” Professor Xin said with emotion.
“What?” Xiaopo proved that he was not asleep yet.
“Okay, get up. Go back to your room and sleep~” Professor Xin patted Xiaopo with a palm-leaf fan.
“You are really…”
Xiaopo curled his lips helplessly. Couldn’t he just lie down for a while longer? But when Xiaopo opened his eyes, the mess of cups and plates had been cleaned up!
“I’ve already said that you don’t need to deliberately control your magic power at this level. You just need to know how to change it~” Professor Xin waved a palm leaf fan and walked towards his room proudly~
Xiaopo looked at what was in front of him in surprise and raised his hands in disbelief. He lay back on the bed, still unable to believe what had just happened.
Carefully recalling everything that just happened, was that last hint of magic really cast by me unintentionally?
Xiaopo tried again, but the black and red magic in his hand didn’t look harmless at all…
Back in the room, Professor Xin took out his tablet and made a video call. Although it was already so late, the person on the other end was still dressed in a neat military uniform.
Professor Xin, wearing a vest, taunted, “Aren’t you tired of doing this every day?”
The man in military uniform opposite shook his head nonchalantly: “What’s the matter?”
“That child…” Professor Xin stopped talking halfway and thought for a moment, “It’s okay. Go to sleep!”
The man in military uniform opposite laughed: “Why, that kid is…”
Professor Xin rolled his eyes and cut off the video. He threw the tablet aside and lay down on the messy bed. He put his hands under his head, and the hair that was blocking his eyes inadvertently spread out, revealing Professor Xin’s bright eyes.
“What on earth did that kid go through?” Professor Xin muttered, recalling what happened to Xiaopo these days: “Is that orange-red magic to protect himself? He has such pure magic, but whenever he releases it consciously, it subconsciously carries hostility. And he always has a silly smile on his face. Is he trying hard to fight against fate? But what about the occasional rampage? The influence of the black crystal? But he clearly felt different magical fluctuations at that time. Is this the price of becoming a legend? It really is… oh…”
Professor Xin suddenly stood up, grabbed the tablet, and redialed the video call. The person on the other end was still wearing a neat military uniform.
“Hey! Talk to the old man, I want to go to Hogwarts with that kid!” Professor Xin said carelessly.
The man in military uniform did not answer, but just smiled politely.
“Come on! Just give me a straight answer!” Professor Xin said dissatisfiedly, “I’m tired of you being like this.”
“Everything has been arranged.” The man in military uniform replied with a smile.
“Tsk, this is boring! You people in the General Staff have dirty hearts!” Professor Xin cursed and was about to hang up the video.
But the man in military uniform opposite him unexpectedly raised his hand: “Wait a moment.”
“what?”
Professor Xin asked dissatisfiedly. The camera turned and an energetic old man appeared in the picture.
“Teacher,” Professor Xin straightened up awkwardly, “You are here too.”
“We don’t actually want the heart either,” the old man said with a smile.
Professor Xin scratched his head awkwardly: “You know that’s not what I meant.”
The old man smiled and waved his hand: “Alright. I have nothing special to do here. Your last question has been approved. You can teach the child. But you know the child’s situation, so do what you can.”
“Really!” Professor Xin’s voice rose octaves with joy.
“Really, it’s always good to be prepared.” The old man also laughed and said, “Come back before you leave and take a look at us old men. I have a feeling that after seeing you this time, it will be hard to see you next time.”
“Pfft, pfft, what are you talking about?” Professor Xin interrupted quickly, “Good luck to you, and may you live a hundred years~ No, no, several hundred years…”
“Okay, we’ll live hundreds of years…” The old man smiled and replied, mumbling: “I don’t know if it’s right or wrong to let you go this time.”
“Alright, alright, I’m hanging up now. There’s no end to this story.” Professor Xin said this but still didn’t hang up the video.
It seemed like the old man hadn’t seen Professor Xin for a long time. He talked for a long time before hanging up the phone.
Professor Xin pondered the meaning of the old man’s words, and as he was thinking, he picked up the wine jug and took a big sip!
“Never mind! Go to sleep!”
Chapter 14 “Riding” a Car~ (Old Version)
After that day, life seemed to become dull. Owl would occasionally deliver an issue of The Quibbler, but not the Daily Prophet. I didn’t care what happened abroad. I just missed CG, Selena, and my DA companions.
Especially when they occasionally communicated with fake Galleons, after all, fewer and fewer children in the orphanage were willing to communicate with Xiaopo. It was now widely rumored in the orphanage that Xiaopo did not come back from school for the summer vacation, but was driven back by the adoptive parents. So now even Xiaobutian was a little reluctant to contact Xiaopo.
Fortunately, Xiaopo still has Uncle Fatty and Professor Xin. Xiaopo seeks Uncle Fatty for food and drinks during the day, and seeks Professor Xin for food and drinks at night, and learns magic…
But I don’t know how much progress I have made. It’s just that once, I accidentally sent a message with fake Galleons, “Is everyone okay?”, and the fake Galleons seemed to become the hottest chat group. Everyone sent greetings, but I could only helplessly watch everyone chatting excitedly…
“This damn magic sometimes works and sometimes doesn’t!” Xiaopo complained, looking at Professor Xin who was drinking leisurely across from him.
Professor Xin recently started teaching Xiaopo the Tai Chi that CG didn’t have time to teach him last semester. Xiaopo is now quite good at it, but he doesn’t quite understand why such slow movements are really used for fighting.
Professor Xin ignored him and just waved his palm-leaf fan, telling Xiaopo to calm down and let nature take its course. Everything will work out for him.
Xiao Po listened in confusion and felt that it was no different from meditation.
It was not until two weeks before school started that Xiaopo was finally able to successfully perform all the magic he had learned. He could not help but sigh that Professor Xin was really good.
Professor Xin also laughed happily, and secretly reminded Xiaopo that he hadn’t brought any wine in a long time!
Xiaopo could only scratch his head helplessly: “I have almost cleared out all the wine from Uncle Fatty’s place. How about you lend me your tablet and I’ll buy some for you online. I just don’t have much money…”
“That’s enough,” Professor Xin interrupted impatiently, “Stop rambling on. Invite Uncle Fatty to join us tomorrow night. He drank so much, so let’s treat him to a drink as well.”
“Uncle Fat has to be on duty tomorrow night~” Xiaopo reminded.
“What’s there to be afraid of on duty? I’m here, so why would I really need him to be on duty…”
Professor Xin answered nonchalantly, so Xiaopo didn’t think too much about it and secretly brought Fatty Uncle here without worry. But Fatty Uncle’s alcohol tolerance…
“Xiao Xin, I tell you, I know a lot of guys, really!” The fat uncle said with a big tongue: “Leave it to me, I will organize a photo album for you later, so you can choose carefully! I can find any kind of fat uncle for you! Don’t worry! I know all the guys in this city!”
“Uncle Fat, let me help you go back~” Xiaopo said awkwardly.
“No!” Fatty opened his big hands, blushed, tilted his head and looked at Xiaopo: “I’m happy today, happy! You too, why didn’t you tell your Fatty uncle earlier! Xiaoxin is such a good girl, she loves to drink, so we must provide her with enough! Xiaoxin, don’t worry, I know a distributor at the winery, I will ask him to send the wine over tomorrow. Your wine is good, but for Old Beijing, we have to have Erguotou! Don’t you think…”
Professor Xin responded with a smile and refilled Uncle Fatty’s glass with wine. As they drank and exchanged glasses, the dishes on the table had been changed several times.
Xiaopo watched Professor Xin use magic without any scruples to serve dishes and pour wine one glass after another, wondering curiously how much he drank.
Until later, he could no longer eat and fell into a deep sleep leaning on the stool.
But the next day, I don’t know how the dean found out, but Uncle Fatty and Professor Xin were scolded in the dean’s office!
Unfortunately, neither Fatty nor Professor Xin took being scolded to heart. The wine that Fatty promised was really delivered. Xiaopo carefully kept watch for Fatty, and after making sure that no one was around, he hid two boxes of Erguotou under Professor Xin’s bed.
Professor Xin fanned himself with a palm-leaf fan and told Uncle Fat to continue drinking in the evening!
But this time, the fat uncle shook his head and waved his hands, saying firmly that it was not that he couldn’t drink too much, but the dean was right, it was his duty and he had to give priority to work!
Xiaopo covered his mouth and laughed, and was hit hard on the head by the fat uncle.
Soon, it was the day to start school. Professor Xin wore decent clothes for a rare occasion, but the short-sleeved T-shirt and jeans looked too big no matter how he looked at them.
“What do you know! It’s comfortable to wear like this!” Professor Xin rolled his eyes at Xiaopo.
Just when he was about to leave, the little one secretly ran over, stuffed a box of delicious-looking candies into his hand, said “Thank you for the Harry Potter”, and hurried away.
Xiaopo looked at the candy in his hand with satisfaction and smiled foolishly.
The fat uncle rubbed Xiaopo’s head and said solemnly: “Stinky boy, be obedient when you go out and learn skills well, do you hear me!”
“I got it, Uncle Fatty, don’t worry!” Xiao Po responded and took the big bag full of food from Uncle Fatty’s hand.
“Xiao Xin,” Fatty Uncle looked at Professor Xin, “Please send this child to school. The dean also refused to let me go with him. Go early and come back early. I have sorted out the photos. We will choose when we come back. Fatty Uncle will help you decide who you like.”
“If you say that, I won’t come back…” Professor Xin said seriously.
Amid Uncle Fat’s laughter, Xiao Po followed Professor Xin and turned the corner.
When I looked back, the welfare home had been replaced by an abandoned factory building with broken walls and tiles.
“Your protective spell is to protect against wizards?” Xiaopo seemed to suddenly understand.
“Isn’t that amazing!” Professor Xin boasted proudly.
Xiao Po turned back, not knowing whether it was okay or not, and saw several people wearing Zhongshan suits nearby. Xiao Po felt that he had seen these people before. When was it? Xiao Po was confused and had already followed Professor Xin into a black car.
At the urging of the new professor, I moved to the other side of the car door~
“Get off the car now?! What are you doing?” Xiao Po followed behind Professor Xin and asked in confusion.
“Take a ride.” Professor Xin seemed to be used to it.
I don’t know how to complain! This is called riding in a car? Well, at least I really rode in the car for a while, but, it was really just a ride!
However, when Xiaopo got off the car from the other side, what appeared in front of him was the spacious hall of the Exit and Entry Administration!
“This…” Xiaopo looked at the scene in front of him in surprise: “This is not mentioned in Harry Potter…”
“How can ordinary people know everything? What do they call over there? Yes, Muggles. How can Muggles know everything?” Professor Xin answered casually, pulling Xiaopo towards a door next to him.
Xiaopo clearly saw the sign on the door that read “European Affairs Branch”.
After walking in…
“This is,” Xiaopo exclaimed in surprise, “This is the terminal?!”
“No.” Professor Xin said calmly.
Xiaopo opened his mouth and pointed outside the huge glass curtain wall, at the spacious runway and apron, as well as the various aircraft parked next to the boarding bridges waiting to take off!
“What is this?”
Chapter 15: Professor Xin suddenly becomes serious (old version)
“This isn’t a terminal? Then what is this?”
Professor Xin said calmly: “European Affairs Office~”
“Okay.” Xiaopo looked like he was saying whatever you want to say.
Looking around, Professor Xin had already taken Xiaopo to the security check. Xiaopo was surprised to see a wizard in an airline uniform holding a tablet and taking a photo of Xiaopo. Then, all the things Xiaopo brought were listed on the list next to him, including the box of candy that Xiaobutian gave him. The list showed that it had expired three days ago…
When the security inspector asked if he needed to help Xiao Po dispose of it, Xiao Po decisively refused. Just think about it, you can tell that it must have expired because Xiao Po was reluctant to eat it.
After that, there were no other examinations. Professor Xin led Xiaopo forward and Xiaopo looked around curiously.
“Is that it?” Xiaopo asked in surprise.
“What else?” Professor Xin turned his head, glanced at Xiaopo, took out the wine jug and took a sip.
“Can your wine pass security?” Xiaopo pointed at Professor Xin in surprise.
“Why not?” Professor Xin asked back.
“I heard that you can’t bring alcohol on a plane, although I’ve never been on one…” Xiaopo muttered to himself.
“You can’t bring it with you on a plane,” Professor Xin muttered, “but we’re not going there by plane either.”
“What about those outside the window… okay.” Xiaopo realized that wizards do not need to take a plane to travel, but there was a hint of loss in his tone.
“Want to take a plane?” Professor Xin heard the disappointment in Xiaopo’s tone and asked while ruffling his hair.
“Forget it.” Xiaopo looked out the window and shook his head.
Professor Xin looked at Xiaopo, and after a few seconds, Xiaopo clearly heard the sound of something breaking!
Xiaopo quickly turned around and saw that Professor Xin had crushed the tablet in his hand. There was still a flash of electricity on the broken tablet…
“Oh no, my hands are shaking, and I broke it again…” Professor Xin said helplessly, “Then there’s nothing we can do. Without the tablet, we can’t apply for a door key, and we can’t register for Apparition. So, we can only take a plane. It’s so annoying…”
Before Xiaopo could complain, several staff members in security uniforms rushed over amid shouts of “What happened?” “Is there a fire?” and “Is anyone okay?”
“It’s okay, it’s okay. My hands are shaking and the tablet is broken.” Professor Xin calmly showed everyone the tablet that was still glowing.
“Oh. It’s okay. We’ll replace it for you…”
As they looked at each other in bewilderment, one of the staff members was speaking, but slowly stopped talking when he saw Professor Xin’s murderous aura.
Professor Xin casually took out a black card and threw it to the staff member who swallowed his words: “Help us check in. The next business class flight with a private cabin. Don’t take a small plane. We can’t afford to lose face!”
“Okay, okay!” Several people around looked at the black card in their hands in surprise: “Please come this way, the VIP channel is…”
“This child has never been on a plane, so let him take the normal aisle.” Professor Xin interrupted the man.
“Okay, this way please.”
Changing the direction, the staff led the way.
Amid Xiaopo’s surprise and the others’ onlookers, the two stepped onto the boarding bridge…
Xiaopo clearly saw that the people sitting in the seats waiting for the flight were almost all ordinary people who did not know magic.
“Are we being too conspicuous?” Xiaopo felt uncomfortable after sitting in the unreasonably spacious seat.
“No~” Professor Xin skillfully put the chair down and put on a blindfold.
“But I saw on the news that many second-generation rich people who showed off their wealth went to jail…” Xiaopo whispered in Professor Xin’s ear.
“I’m not a second-generation rich man,” Professor Xin raised his eye mask and pointed at himself proudly, “The black card is only issued to those who have truly made contributions to the country. This is the treatment that heroes deserve, do you understand?”
“You…but I didn’t.” Xiaopo was speechless for a moment.
“Don’t worry, what I paid for them is enough to take someone to enjoy a first-class cabin.” Professor Xin put down the eye mask and said impatiently: “Stop dawdling and go to sleep!”
Xiaopo sat back in his chair, not quite understanding what was going on, and looked around curiously.
At this moment, the service light next to it flashed, the door was gently opened, and the flight attendant came in, squatted beside Xiaopo, and whispered: “Hello, here are your tea and snacks, the entertainment equipment is in the right armrest, the slippers are soft under the seat, the front panel provides various service options, and the wand storage box is on the left side of your armrest, which can adjust the suspension height. It is recommended that you put the wand in after takeoff to prevent misoperation. The plane is expected to take off in 15 minutes. If you need to rest, you can choose the fully enclosed mode in the front function area to eliminate the impact of noise and airflow on you. The call button is above your head. If you need anything, you can call me at any time. Do you think there is anything else you need me to introduce?”
“Um, that, no.” Xiaopo had never seen such a beautiful waiter before, and was a little confused for a moment: “No, everything is fine, thank you.”
“Okay, I won’t disturb your rest. I wish you a pleasant journey~”
The flight attendant politely left the room, the door closed, and Xiaopo was still holding the tea and snacks in a daze, until…
“Okay, that’s a magic illusion~” Professor Xin raised his hand and pushed Xiaopo’s chin upwards!
Xiaopo then shut up and looked at Professor Xin: “Magic? Fake?”
“Of course,” Professor Xin said, pushing the eye patch to the top of his head. “Although we have privileges, we cannot interfere with the normal lives of Muggles. Think about it, how can we ensure that when people like us suddenly ask to take a plane, we can always arrange seats and provide the services that wizards should have?”
“Traceless Stretching Spell!” Xiaopo suddenly reacted.
“Not bad,” Professor Xin praised, and then continued, “So, this is the real way to integrate with Muggles, not like what the Yron Ministry of Magic did! Division can only lead to confrontation.”
“That makes sense.” Xiaopo nodded as if he understood, but the expression on his face clearly showed that he still didn’t quite understand.
“You’re pretending to know!” Professor Xin rolled his eyes at Xiao Po. “Although the magic train in London has been replaced with a high-speed train, it is still powered by magic. But the speed of the high-speed train is obviously much faster than that of magic! Hogwarts still does not allow technological things to enter, but sometimes, technology is obviously more convenient! Magic has its own convenience, but the technology of Muggles is not completely useless. We can learn from each other to make up for our shortcomings, understand?”
“There is a Muggle Studies class at Hogwarts, and many people there don’t insist on pure-bloodedness.” Xiao Po tried to explain, but seeing Professor Xin’s disdainful look, he quickly added, “Of course, what you said is actually right. We should indeed learn from each other’s strengths and complement each other’s weaknesses, and integrate with each other.”
“Their steps are too small! Being conservative is not necessarily wrong, but if they cannot keep up with the pace of the times, they will inevitably decline!” Professor Xin summarized everything he had just said.
“You,” Xiao Po thought, hesitating whether to ask, but looking at Professor Xin who suddenly became serious in front of him, he always felt a little strange: “Why are you suddenly telling me this?”
Chapter 16 Expelliarmus! (Old Version)
“Why are you suddenly telling me this?”
Professor Xin was stunned by the question and turned his head back: “Why so many whys! Just say whatever comes to mind! I just want to remind you, don’t just believe what others say, think more about it yourself!”
“Oh.” Xiao Po responded and nodded. He didn’t know what he was thinking about. He looked at Professor Xin with a silly smile on his face.
Professor Xin saw Xiaopo’s look, raised his hand and gave Xiaopo a slap on the head, then stretched out his hand and pressed the fully closed button in front of Xiaopo: “Sleep!”
Xiao Po was surprised to see a transparent light egg surrounding his seat! The sound outside suddenly disappeared!
It was so quiet that he felt like being in the woods. With the occasional sound of pine waves, Xiaopo felt his mind suddenly relax.
Seeing that Professor Xin had put on his eye mask again, Xiaopo took a sip of the drink, put the cup on the shelf beside him, and leaned comfortably on the soft seat.
The light egg slowly became less transparent, and when Xiaopo closed his eyes, it became completely dark…
Xiaopo was walking in the woods, looking at the lonely little house in front of him, with smoke rising from its chimney.
Blue sky, white clouds, lush greenery…
“How beautiful!”
Xiaopo sighed and subconsciously reached out to the wooden door.
Boom boom boom~
There was a knock on the door. Xiaopo always felt that the thin wooden door should not make such a dull knocking sound.
Subconsciously, Xiaopo opened his eyes. This is…
“Wake up, we’re here!” Professor Xin knocked on the broken chair.
“Professor Xin, are we here yet?” Xiaopo rubbed his eyes. It was indeed a dream. This sleep was quite comfortable, but…
“Did I miss seeing the clouds?” Xiaopo asked with a bitter face.
“You can fly up and see it yourself next time!” Professor Xin rolled his eyes at Xiaopo and said, “Let’s go!”
Xiaopo quickly took down his luggage, looked at Professor Xin’s outstretched arm, rubbed his head with a silly smile, and said, “It’s okay, I can walk by myself, no need for your help.”
“Very good!” Professor Xin answered with satisfaction.
Then, with a sound of Apparition, Professor Xin disappeared from the spot…
Wait! What’s going on?
Xiaopo reacted instantly and realized that what he had just done was to make his followers visible!
“I’ll go!”
Xiaopo shouted, and suddenly all his sleepiness disappeared! He hurriedly ran outside with his luggage!
Fortunately, there was the magic phantom. After Xiaopo’s incoherent gestures and words, the flight attendant finally understood what Xiaopo meant.
Professionally hiding the urge to laugh, the flight attendant smiled and said, “In that case, I suggest you go pick up your luggage first. After your luggage and that of Academician Xin are sorted, they will be sent to VIP Lounge No. 1. You can go there to rest and wait. Of course, you can also go directly to the boarding area and we will help you deliver your luggage!”
Xiao Po thanked the phantom and hurriedly followed the signs to the VIP lounge! But if there was no new professor, could he really get in?
Xiaopo walked forward anxiously and was indeed stopped outside the lounge!
“Sorry sir! Please show me your boarding pass, passport, or VIP card~”
“Me!” Xiaopo smiled awkwardly, looking at the obviously Muggle ground staff in front of him: “I don’t have these…”
“Then you can stay in the public rest area for a while.” The Muggle ground staff still kept smiling, but there was a little more doubt in his eyes.
“Okay, thank you!” Xiaopo nodded. The terminal was so big that he didn’t know which way to go!
Fortunately, at this time!
Xiaopo heard a crisp snap of fingers!
Xiaopo and the Muggle ground staff subconsciously looked inside!
“He’s with me!”
Xiaopo has never felt that a drunken voice can be so warm!
“Professor Xin!”
Xiao Po looked at Professor Xin’s disgusted eyes excitedly, and while the Muggle ground staff apologized and invited him in, he trotted towards Professor Xin.
Xiaopo plopped down on a chair next to Professor Xin, with the luggage on top, and Xiaopo spread his wings in the cage, grunting to welcome Xiaopo!
However, Professor Xin had already stood up, carrying the wine jug, and walked out the door: “Let’s go!”
“Depend on!”
Xiao Po cursed in his heart, suppressed his anger, maintained a smile, pushed his bags, followed Professor Xin, and got on a taxi to the station!
Along the way, Professor Xin spoke less and less, and seemed to have become more serious.
Xiaopo looked at Professor Xin awkwardly: “Are you okay?”
Professor Xin twisted open the wine bottle, took a big gulp, and said seriously: “It doesn’t feel right! I feel like something is going to happen!”
“Do you understand prophecy?” Xiaopo looked at Professor Xin in surprise.
Professor Xin rolled his eyes at Xiaopo and said, “You should be concerned about what the matter is!”
“Oh, what’s the matter?” Xiaopo quickly changed the subject.
“How should I know!” Professor Xin cursed, took another gulp, put away the wine flask, and tied his messy hair behind his head: “There is no Inspectorate, no Auror, not even an official from the Ministry of Magic to take over! Something is wrong!”
“What about us?” Xiaopo turned his head and looked around.
“Be careful and adapt to circumstances!” Professor Xin glanced at the driver in front who was looking at him strangely.
Xiaopo swallowed his saliva and nodded subconsciously. He pressed the magic wand through his clothes with his right hand!
They walked nervously all the way until Professor Xin paid the fare cautiously. The two of them pushed their luggage and successfully arrived at Platform 9 3/4, where they saw the magic train with steam coming out of it!
Still, nothing happened!
“Professor…” Xiaopo asked in a low voice, looking at the people on the platform.
Professor Xin still did not relax his vigilance at all, and Ma Weili was particularly alert: “Let’s go, get in the car!”
With the long whistle sounding, Xiaopo stepped straight onto the train!
Under the instructions of Professor Xin, although the boxes in front were almost empty because they arrived early, Xiaopo and Professor Xin still walked to the last box and sat down!
After putting away their luggage and sitting down peacefully, as nothing happened again, Professor Xin and Xiaopo finally felt relieved.
Professor Xin picked up the wine jug and took a sip. Xiaopo leaned against the window and watched the students and parents coming and going on the platform. For a moment, the box became quiet.
By the time the train whistled again, there were almost no students on the platform!
The compartment door was flung open! Half of the wand came out!
Xiaopo shuddered and subconsciously drew out his magic wand! Dark red magic power instantly rose up behind Xiaopo!
“Disarm you!” Xiaopo shouted subconsciously.
Professor Xin instantly felt something was wrong. In this state, Xiaopo’s magic was definitely not as simple as removing your weapon!
Professor Xin stretched out his palm like lightning, with flashes of electric light, and grabbed the magic power on the tip of the broken wand!
I saw a figure holding a magic wand walking out!
“I said he must be in the last box!”
Selena raised her wand with a smile on her face, and when she turned around, the rich magic visible to the naked eye was already before her eyes!
Chapter 17 If we don’t beat each other to death, then we won’t know each other… (Old version)
Selena raised her wand with a smile on her face, and when she turned around, the magic that was so strong that it was visible to the naked eye was already before her eyes!
Selena’s face instantly turned pale! Professor Xin quickly raised his hand, and a layer of shield blocked Selena’s eyes!
But at this moment, suddenly there was a sound of breaking through the air at an incredibly fast speed, and at the same time, the air wave broke through the shield and crushed Xiaopo’s magic with his hand!
Selena’s hair fluttered! Amid the explosion, Selena sat on the ground!
“Selena!”
Xiaopo shouted, quickly put away his magic power, rushed forward to help Selena up! Professor Xin pushed Xiaopo back to his seat, and in a flash, he rushed out of the door, with lightning and crackling sounds between his palms!
Outside the door, CG also quickly dragged Selena behind him and flew forward! With a wave of his arms, a fire dragon flew straight towards Professor Xin!!!
Professor Xin frowned and punched the fire dragon. The loud noise shattered the glass of countless compartments!
The terrified screams instantly caused the entire train to explode!
“What’s wrong?!”
Xiaopo clearly recognized the owner of the voice, Albus!
Selena shouted behind her, her wand already in her hand!
“student?!”
Professor Xin’s brows furrowed even deeper!
But CG has struck again!
He took a false step forward, raised his palm to gather energy, double split palms, cross hands, black tiger sitting in the cave, double punch! In the blink of an eye, CG had already used several moves in succession!
“Stop!” Xiaopo shouted quickly!
Professor Xin took a moment to raise his hand and slashed at the air, blocking all the sounds in the box with a sound. He turned around and tapped Xiaopo’s chest lightly, kicking him back to his seat: “I knew there was a master!”
CG was surprised to see Professor Xin still having enough strength to spare! He spread his palms and activated magic, and his speed suddenly increased several times!
With every move, there was a faint sound of wind and thunder!
Professor Xin’s eyes suddenly lit up, and he changed his move and rushed forward! There was no more empty moves with both palms, and every move was a hard fight!
The explosions were getting louder and louder, so fast that it was impossible to distinguish the levels!
Xiaopo looked at the two people in front of him in surprise, his fists and feet were already carrying shadows!
Is this still a magical world? Have I traveled to a martial arts world? Or a martial arts world with its own lightning and fire effects?
But the next second, the various magic tricks performed by DA behind him proved that this is still a world of magic!
Albus rushed forward first! Then came Scorpius! Jaina, Trod, Selena! Behind them, Lily, Winice and other DAs were also rushing here against the flow of people!
However, in the next second, Professor Xin’s lightning had bypassed the CG, blocked one magic after another, and knocked away the people who rushed over!
“Don’t come over here!”
CG and Professor Xin shouted almost in unison!
CG was stunned, looked at the opponent in surprise, slowed down his moves, and took half a step back!
Professor Xin shook his head helplessly and stopped his moves: “You’re not going to fight anymore? What a pity!”
After saying that, he pulled off the rubber band behind his head, letting his hair spread out, raised his hand to remove the sound barrier in front of Xiaopo, and took a big gulp of wine.
Xiaopo rushed out and stood between the two of them: “Misunderstanding! Stop fighting!”
“You said you don’t want to fight, so don’t fight?!” Albus walked forward angrily. The fall he just made was really heavy. He pulled Little Po aside and pointed his wand at Professor Xin: “Who are you!?”
Professor Xin glanced at Albus nonchalantly: “Do you still want to be beaten?”
“F*ck me!” Albus rolled up his sleeves and rushed forward, but was held back by Scorpius!
“Idiot!” Selena rolled her eyes at Albus, pushed Albus aside, and walked forward: “Although I don’t deny his idiocy, you really should give us an explanation!”
Professor Xin lifted her hair and looked at the children in front of her. She turned her head and looked at Xiaopo: “New DA?”
Xiaopo nodded, then stepped forward and tried to explain, but Professor Xin pulled him back by the collar. Giving Xiaopo a cold look, Professor Xin said, “I’m the one asking the question, why are you trying to get involved?”
Then he walked in front of Selena, brushed away the hair that was scattered in front of his eyes, and put his face close to Selena: “You are not convinced!? Let’s fight?!”
“I’m afraid of you!” Albus roared and was about to go again!
But this time, Selena didn’t even turn her head and pushed Albus back!
He stared at Professor Xin without blinking: “I can’t beat you! But don’t think you can do whatever you want just because you beat us! You can’t leave without an explanation today! Remember this, I said!”
“Aren’t you afraid of death?!” Professor Xin said viciously!
“You try it!” Selena’s momentum is no less than Professor Xin!
Professor Xin stood up suddenly!
CG pulled Selena aside, and stood in front of Professor Xin, staring at him: “Fight me first!”
Professor Xin laughed, picked up the wine flask and took a sip, then turned to look at Xiaopo: “Are they all your friends?”
Xiaopo nodded, not knowing what to do!
“Not bad, not bad!” Professor Xin fiddled with his hair, looked at CG, looked at Selena, and then looked at the other DAs: “You are not bad, there are not many people who can fight me like this. You are not bad either, little girl, there are not many people who dare to talk to me like this. The two little girls at the back, don’t use Floo powder secretly, I have blocked the surrounding communications, and can’t find the Aurors! You DAs are interesting, how about adding me?”
“What’s wrong with you?!” Xiaopo looked at Professor Xin in surprise.
“Stop staring at me like that!” Professor Xin looked at Selena and stretched out his hand in front of Selena: “Lend me your wand!”
“Do you think it’s possible? How could I…” Selena was halfway through her sentence when she found that the wand in her hand had appeared in Professor Xin’s hand.
“Thank you~” Professor Xin looked at Selena, and Xiaopo was sure that she did it on purpose!
“…” Selena’s mouth opened and closed silently.
“Well then,” Professor Xin naturally understood Selena’s lip movements, but since she didn’t say anything, Professor Xin just smiled, turned around, pointed his wand forward, and shook it gently: “Restore as before~”
The carriage of the Hogwarts Express was restored to its original appearance in an instant!
“Everything is forgotten~”
The DAs around them changed their expressions instantly. This was not some ordinary magic, this was magic that changed memories! The consequences of this magic…
“What are you doing!” CG roared and flew up!
But Professor Xin reached out with one hand, and somehow managed to pull CG down with just a flick of his hand!
Then the magic was shaken in the air, and the children on the train, except for the DA members in front of them, all returned to their seats in a daze and started chatting and laughing as if nothing had happened!
The level of magic displayed by this move!
It was enough to shut everyone up! For a moment, no one provoked him. Even Albus, although still looking angry, stood quietly aside.
Professor Xin looked at everything with satisfaction. He flipped his hand and the wand returned to Selena’s hand: “The explanation you wanted!”
Chapter 18 Dementors?! (Old Version)
For a moment, the train corridor was eerily quiet!
A long whistle sounded! The train slowly drove out of the platform!
Xiaopo suddenly reacted: “Professor Xin, it’s time for you to get off the car…”
Professor Xin rolled his eyes at Xiaopo, took a sip of wine, took out a crumpled envelope from his jeans pocket, threw it to Xiaopo, and walked back to the box!
Xiaopo looked at the Hogwarts sealing wax on the envelope and didn’t know what to do for a moment!
Selena snatched it away, and the others quickly gathered around. Under everyone’s gaze, Selena glared into the box, then opened the envelope and saw the exquisite cursive title at the top: Appointment Notice for Professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts at Hogwarts!
Albus was the first to shout, totally unwilling to accept the fact before his eyes! But whether it was the wax on the envelope or Professor McGonagall’s signature at the end, it was enough to prove that this was indeed true? !
Xiaopo looked at Professor Xin in surprise! How could the person who promised to be his caretaker suddenly become…
“Are you the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor?” Selena asked the question on behalf of everyone!
Professor Xin looked at Selena with a smile, still drinking, and a bit drunk on his face: “What? My level is not good enough to teach you?”
Selena looked at Xiaopo in confusion, and Xiaopo shook his head helplessly: “Don’t look at me like that, I’m just like you, I just found out about this…”
“You clearly just…” Albus was about to speak again, but Selena glared at him and he shut his mouth unconvinced.
“In that case, excuse me for disturbing you, Professor.” Selena said indifferently, “Let’s go find our own private rooms.”
After saying that, he pulled Xiaopo and was about to leave.
Just then…
“Did I tell you that you can leave now?” Professor Xin put the wine jug heavily aside, lifted his hair with his fingers, and said!
“What do you mean?” Selena turned around and stared at Professor Xin without giving in!
Professor Xin stood up and pulled Xiao Po aside: “I gave you the explanation you asked for, but shouldn’t you give me an explanation for performing magic outside the school at will?!”
“What do you want!” Albus could no longer hold back and shouted first.
“Professor Xin! They are all my friends!” Xiaopo also hurried up to explain.
“Shut up!” Selena shouted, rolled her eyes at Little Po and Albus, and then looked at Professor Xin again: “Is it useful to say so much? They want us to give an explanation! Right?”
Professor Xin looked at Selena meaningfully and did not answer!
“If you want to fight again!” CG took a step forward and looked at Professor Xin seriously: “I’m always here to fight!”
“Very good!” Professor Xin said loudly, sweeping his eyes over everyone in the room one by one.
For a moment, the carriage became quiet again!
The familiar clanging sound drifted from afar. The snack cart of the Hogwarts Express seemed particularly out of place…
“You’re in the way, kids!”
A kind voice came from behind, and the smiling lady pushing the snack cart seemed completely unaware of what was happening in front!
“Ma’am, you’d better go back. We don’t need anything right now.”
Winice tried to persuade him quietly, but it didn’t seem to have any effect.
“No, my dear child, I have to go! I have to go through every box, this is my duty!” The smiling lady insisted: “Please make way, if you don’t mind! Child~”
“Obviously we mind!” Albus turned his head away unhappily: “Can’t you see we have something serious to do!”
“You are so rude~” The smiling lady’s expression seemed a little stiff, and she said in a lukewarm tone: “I have to go through every box!”
“What’s going on today!” Albus roared angrily!
But at this moment!
Scorpius covered Albus’ mouth!
Albus angrily pulled Scorpius away and turned his head away angrily, but because of his anger, the swear words that were about to come out of his mouth were swallowed back!
In just a few words, the situation at the rear of the car has completely changed!
Waves of cold air came from the rear of the car, and frost was creeping from the last window to the front! The magic lamp kept flickering, as if it could go out at any time! Terror and despair, like a plague with no source to be found, filled the carriage. Sobs and waves of panic began to echo in each private room!
“What did you do?!” Albus glared at Professor Xin!
“Shut up!” Selena shouted first: “It’s a Dementor!”
That’s right, Xiaopo still remembers this familiar coldness and despair vividly!
“Impossible! Haven’t the Dementors been…” Lily argued in a low voice: “Dementors and the like can’t possibly appear in Country Y! That’s what my father said!”
However, this time no one answered, and the withered and scabby hand had already pressed on the frosty window!
Someone swallowed! In such a quiet environment, the sound was unusually clear!
Just as everyone looked at the embarrassed Albus!
With a crisp snap, the smiling lady disappeared with her cart!
Everyone looked over subconsciously!
Suddenly, all the glass exploded!
The scabby big hand reached out and grabbed Xiaopo’s collar!
“It’s over!” Xiaopo muttered, and looked at everyone in a daze for a second, and then fear instantly surged into his heart!
Professor Xin and CG took action almost at the same time!
The hand knife flashed with lightning, and the fist blasted out a fire dragon! They all hit the cloak that had already floated out of the window!
It really is a Dementor! Under the cloak, that disgusting face has been so close to me without knowing when!
No time to be surprised!
The Dementor twisted his body and pulled Little Po out of the train!
The lightning struck towards nothingness and the fire dragon exploded in the air!
The other people in the carriage seemed to have just realized what was happening! Ear-piercing screams rang out in every compartment almost at the same time!
CG didn’t hesitate any longer, he took a step forward, stepped on the window frame, and flew out!
But what they encountered was a mass of black fog and seemingly endless frost!
“When did Dementors learn magic?!” Selena, who was lying on the window, couldn’t help but frown!
And the CG chasing behind him has already blasted out one fire dragon after another!
The fire dragon opened its huge mouth, and the raging flames burned the ice and frost, breaking through the thick fog and rushing towards the Dementors!
With a roar, the fire dragon circled up and wrapped the Dementors in flames!
However, the flames did not last for even a second before they disappeared with the Dementors’ unpleasant laugh!
This is a Dementor, a Dementor who is afraid of nothing except his Patronus!
Flame, blocking it for a while is already the limit!
“Guardian!”
Chapter 19: Not Afraid of the Patronus’ Dementors? (Old Version)
Black and red magic rose on Xiaopo’s side, and he attacked with the little magic he had learned while shouting a warning!
The CG chasing behind ran at full speed, and magic kept flying towards the Dementors! Wind, fire, thunder, lightning, and all kinds of magic…
“The Patronus Charm! You’ve used it!” Xiaopo reminded loudly again!
“I can’t use it!” CG yelled.
“…”
Xiaopo looked behind him speechlessly! It’s useless. What the hell? What about the time in the Pensieve? What about the time when so many Dementors were driven away? Are they all lies?
But looking at CG’s serious face, Xiaopo had no choice but to continue to persevere.
Seeing Xiaopo’s eyes, CG became more anxious and made up his mind!
“In that case, there is nothing we can do!”
CG reminded loudly, the magic power spread, and the momentum suddenly increased!
Xiaopo shuddered, and the gaze he had just directed at the Dementor turned to CG again! Xiaopo clearly remembered that the last time CG emitted such a powerful magic, it clearly told him “Don’t die”!
Xiaopo swallowed subconsciously, and swallowed the words “What are you doing?” back into his mouth!
The ground was already firmly planted, and as the dust flew, CG slammed his palms on the ground! The wave of magic seemed to shake the earth!
A mound of earth rose from the ground! The earth, rocks, and wood fragments rolled down towards the Dementor!
At least we can stop it!
Xiaopo thought so, but the next second, he found out that he was wrong!
This Dementor really knows how to use magic! The Dementor pointed his dry arm forward! With a huge roar, the mound was completely blown apart!
That’s it?
Of course not!
At this moment, Xiaopo clearly heard the metallic sound of iron chains falling to the ground!
In the flying mud, two balls of black mist came from nowhere and rose into the air with strange cries!
Amid the laughter that sounded like the friction of stones, Xiaopo was surprised to find that the Dementors were actually entangled by two balls of black mist!
That is, the vengeful spirit!
The same darkness! The same evil! The same difficulty to deal with! But at this moment! These two monsters are actually fighting each other!
The Dementors waved their hands and roared!
“Well done!” Xiaopo shouted excitedly!
However, it seemed that he was released by the Dementors! After a period of inertial flight, it seemed that he was approaching the ground at a high speed!
This is……
“Ah!” Xiaopo screamed in fear!
I kept thinking about the levitation spell in my mind! The levitation spell! The levitation spell! I had learned it myself!
But how can I concentrate at a time like this?
The black and red magic has subconsciously protected Xiaopo! Falling at this speed, even if it falls into the water, it will be exactly the same as hitting the concrete floor! Can this magic really hold up! ?
“Xiaopo!” CG shouted loudly, pointing the magic wand directly at Xiaopo!
Less than 10 centimeters from the ground, Xiaopo stopped in the air!
“It’s great to know magic!”
Xiaopo comforted himself, his heart beating fast!
I looked around in confusion, but there was no trace of the train. On both sides of the empty railway tracks, there were endless dense forests all around!
Suddenly, a figure appeared beside a big tree deep in the woods, illuminated by the dark blue flames. It was the figure that Xiaopo would never mistake! It was…
“Beard!”
The little guy fell to the ground, but his hand was pointing straight in the direction of the bearded man!
CG, who came over, grabbed Xiaopo’s clothes, pulled him up, and ran forward with him without saying a word!
“Bearded man, it’s a bearded man!” Xiao Po shouted and struggled!
CG only had time to yell out one sentence!
“run!”
Run? Really?
Yes! Dementors!
The Dementors broke free from the black fog and chased after them again!
Beards and all that, go to hell! Now there is only one word, run!
Xiaopo ran forward desperately, trying to catch up with CG’s speed!
It’s just that the CG is too fast! So fast that it can almost shake off the Dementors chasing behind!
What’s even more terrible is that even if he is forcibly pulled by CG, Xiaopo still can’t keep up with CG!
“Fly! Can your magic fly?!” Xiaopo shouted anxiously!
“You think too much!” CG complained loudly!
“Then, Phantom, Apparition!” Xiaopo thought quickly and shouted with all his might.
“Impossible! There are restrictions along the Hogwarts Express, and we can’t Apparate!” CG said helplessly, looking back from time to time.
Xiaopo subconsciously turned his head back, but at a glance, he saw that the Dementors were getting closer and closer!
Xiaopo took a deep breath and ran forward with CG regardless of anything!
Suddenly, there was an ominous snapping sound. Xiaopo looked towards the source of the sound in horror. His sleeve actually broke at this moment!
Looking at the rag in his hand, CG stopped in his tracks! He turned around and jumped into the air! With a wave of his arms, two fire dragons flew out and headed for the Dementors!
Seeing this, Xiaopo stopped breathlessly and drew out his wand: “Let’s fight!”
“Fuck you! Are you an idiot?”
“Go!”
Two shouts came almost simultaneously, shocking Xiaopo!
A pure white panda patronus roared and rushed towards the Dementors!
Xiaopo would never have thought that one day he would be so excited to see a crazy woman and a drunkard!
“Professor Xin!” Xiaopo shouted in surprise and joy!
Professor Xin, who had her hair done in a ponytail, rolled her eyes at Xiaopo in annoyance and said, “You two are really good at causing trouble for others!”
The white panda has pounced on the Dementor and bit it!
Just when everyone thought the situation was settled!
But the Dementor raised his hand and slapped the panda away!
“Impossible!” CG shouted loudly: “How dare the Dementors touch the Patronus!”
“What are you yelling about! If you’re not afraid of the Patronus, then you’re not a Dementor!”
Professor Xin frowned and cursed, then rushed forward, exerted force on his feet, took two steps in the air, shook the wine pot, and the surrounding world seemed to be shrouded in wine mist! In the thick wine mist, the Dementors’ movements really slowed down!
Chance!
Seeing this, CG did not hesitate any longer and controlled the fire dragon to rush forward!
Professor Xin raised his hand and fanned it, a gust of wind blew past, and the fire dragon was extinguished: “Go away! You little brat, you are trying to imitate others to play with fire! Watch out!”
Professor Xin shouted, put his fingers to his mouth, and spurted out a flame so hot that it emitted white light!
Fire exploded! There was a loud bang! Dazzling white light filled the sky and earth!
The huge energy sent Xiaopo flying! CG came out from nowhere and caught Xiaopo!
As the two were surprised, a figure walked out! The explosion became the background, and the roar became the foil! Xiaopo felt that he had definitely seen this scene in a movie, and more than one! At this time, there must be background music!
Professor Xin walked elegantly in front of the two of them, ruffled his hair randomly, picked up the wine jug and looked up to the sky! He took a gulp!
“What a pleasure!” Professor Xin wiped the corner of his mouth.
“So cool!” Xiao Po gave a thumbs up from the bottom of his heart!
“Yes, that’s great!” CG also nodded.
Professor Xin smiled triumphantly and patted the two men on the shoulders: “Let’s go!”
A magic circle appeared under the feet of the two people!
Xiaopo only felt a flash before his eyes, and when he opened his eyes again, the three of them were back in the familiar train compartment!
“What is this? Can’t Apparate?” Xiaopo was still a little confused after landing!
“This is called a teleportation array!” Professor Xin put away the props and pointed at the slowly fading array on the floor of the carriage.
“The principles of the magic array are different~” CG explained to Xiaopo on behalf of Professor Xin.
“CG! Xiaopo!” Selena shouted happily!
All the DAs were anxiously waiting for the few people to return, and they were all surprised and delighted to see Xiaopo at this time.
“If you don’t come back, we will get off the car to look for you!” Albus patted Little Bro’s shoulder.
“Thank you…” Xiaopo had a silly smile on his face. It’s nice to have friends.
“Alright, alright, I’m here, nothing can go wrong~”
Chapter 20 Professor Xin’s First Lesson (Old Version)
“Alright, alright, I’m here, nothing can go wrong~” Professor Xin rolled his eyes at them and took another sip of wine: “Have you done everything I told you to do?”
Selena and Albus turned their heads away at the same time. Professor Sheen continued to look at other people. Scorpius was about to speak when he was pushed hard by Albus!
Trod shook his head helplessly. “We have checked one by one. No one else was injured. There were not enough chocolates, but other students also helped. Basically, everyone got some. The senior students, led by the class leader, made simple repairs to the train. So now, everyone is fine.”
“Very good!” Professor Xin said with satisfaction and picked up the wine jug, but was stopped by Selena loudly!
“Can you please stop drinking?” Selena said unhappily, “Don’t you really know that drinking in public is illegal?”
“What kind of bullshit rules are these?” Professor Xin looked at his own wine flask, then at Selena, and suddenly held the wine flask out to Selena: “Want some?”
Selena pushed him away angrily: “Are you serious?!”
“Are you going to call the Aurors to arrest me?” Professor Xin sat in the box and put one foot on the seat. “If not, I will continue drinking!”
Selena took a deep breath and turned her head to the side!
“I told you this is water, do you believe it?” Professor Xin did not continue to embarrass Selena and found a way out for everyone.
“You can say whatever you want! Considering your performance just now!” Selena didn’t look at Professor Xin again, and pulled Xiaopo and CG: “Let’s go!”
“Stop!” Professor Xin put the wine bottle aside: “This is the second time! Can I leave now?”
“That’s an explanation, right?” Selena turned around, and the favorability that Professor Xin had just earned for saving people was instantly reset to zero!
“That’s right!” Professor Xin answered with satisfaction!
“Because we were casting spells casually outside?! But we were trying to save people, and everyone thought you were…” Trod said unwillingly.
“So many people have cast spells! And you still asked us to notify everyone! According to you, those that have recovered to their original state don’t count?!” Albus shouted with his eyes wide open!
“Professor Xin, what are you doing…” Xiaopo asked in some confusion. Professor Xin had never been like this before.
“Shut up!” Selena suddenly raised her voice and swept her eyes sternly over the surrounding DAs: “What are you afraid of!”
Jaina suddenly had a smile on her face, understood what Selena meant, and whispered in Winice’s ear.
After hearing this, Winness widened her eyes in surprise and looked at Jaina. Seeing that Jaina and Lily, who had also eavesdropped, were nodding in confirmation, Winness tried to take a deep breath!
When Winice’s gaze fell on Professor Xin again, her face was full of determination!
“It’s cast! What? Call the Aurors to arrest us!” Winice shouted loudly with an attitude she had never had before! Then she moved behind Jaina a little embarrassedly.
Amid the surprised gazes of the boys who were a beat slower, Winice raised her head firmly!
“Are you satisfied?!” Selena looked at Professor Xin provocatively from beginning to end.
“Very good!” Professor Xin stood up suddenly!
CG instantly stood in front of everyone! Xiaopo stood awkwardly beside them, but firmly protected his companions!
“Fight with me first!” CG said calmly!
“Professor…you, stop it…” Xiaopo tried to persuade Professor Xin to back off for the last time!
“What did I do?” Professor Xin rolled his eyes at Xiaopo and said, “Are you guys DA?”
“Of course!” Xiaopo said loudly!
“Since you are DA, remember this, you are destined to face more things! So!” Professor Xin looked at the children in front of him and said solemnly: “You can abide by the rules, but don’t be rigid! What’s wrong with casting a spell? At that time, someone needs you to take action! What’s wrong with casting a spell! What’s there to be afraid of! What’s wrong with being a professor! At most, we can have a fight! You are destined to challenge authority in the future! Don’t forget that you are the ones who raised the Mockingjay to the Minister of Magic! I am here to teach you skills, but I don’t want to teach a bunch of useless trash! This is the first lesson I teach you, remember it!”
“I always feel like something is not right…”
Trod was muttering to himself, but was pushed by Albus!
“What are you doing?!” Trod took out his discipline badge: “My duty is…”
“You just cast a spell, but you still join us in fighting the Ministry of Magic!” Albus said dissatisfiedly, rolling his eyes at Trod!
“This is different!” said Trod!
“Tell me what’s different!” Professor Xin looked at Trod seriously!
“You shouldn’t drink in public! That’s the difference!” Selena said firmly, “We have to do it! So that no one will be treated unfairly! And you just disregard public order for yourself!”
“Very good! Independent thinking!” Professor Xin sat back in his chair with satisfaction!
“But you are still drinking!” Selena took a step forward and refused to leave!
“99 points!” Professor Xin waved his hand and opened the wine flask beside him that had become transparent. A strong smell of wine emanated from it. “Little Bro! Drink it!”
Xiao Po looked at Professor Xin in surprise, but after seeing Professor Xin’s serious eyes, he decisively raised the wine jug!
The strong smell of alcohol made Xiaopo frown!
Trod subconsciously wanted to stop him, but CG next to him raised his hand to stop him: “Trust Xiaopo’s decision!”
“Let me show you a magic trick I created! The magic of making liquor disappear!” Xiaopo had a big smile on his face. He took a deep breath, picked up the wine jug, and raised his head resolutely!
The gurgling sound echoed in the quiet carriage for a full minute! Xiaopo finally drank all the wine in the jug!
“How about it?”
Xiaopo wiped the corner of his mouth and asked with a silly smile.
“sharp!”
CG was the first to express his opinion and patted Xiaopo on the shoulder!
“So, it’s really water?”
Jaina asked carefully from the side.
Xiaopo smiled foolishly and nodded.
“You knew this a long time ago?” Albus looked at Clow and CG.
Xiaopo shook his head: “I believe in Professor Xin!”
CG also shook his head: “I believe Xiaopo!”
“100 points!” Professor Xin said as he took back the wine flask, covered it with the lid and hung it around his waist again: “Okay, I’ve said everything I wanted to say. How much you learn depends on yourselves! Now, you can go~”
“Why! I decided to sit here today!” Selena crossed her arms in front of her chest, pulled Xiaopo and CG to sit opposite Professor Xin, and looked over provocatively!
It was just that the others were embarrassed! No one wanted to leave, after all, so many things had just happened!
But there are only a few seats in the cubicle, and no one wants to sit next to Professor Xin!
Fortunately, CG noticed everyone’s embarrassment, took out his new wand, and placed it in front of Professor Xin: “Please, Professor.”
Professor Xin looked at the wand and glanced at CG: “You don’t know how to do it yourself?”
But CG took out another Galleon from his pocket and pushed it towards Professor Xin!
Xiaopo recognized what it was at a glance and quickly looked at Selena, but Selena turned her head away proudly, firmly saying that she didn’t see it!
“Tsk tsk, one Galleon is really stingy! This is not allowed.” Professor Xin looked at Xiaopo proudly, picked up the fake Galleon, stretched out his arm and waved it in front of him provocatively, intentionally or unintentionally, sweeping it in front of Selena’s eyes!
“Tsk!” Selena tried hard to act as if she didn’t care!
“You definitely did that on purpose!” Xiaopo commented with a silly smile.
“What do you mean?” CG spoke again!
“make a deal!”
Chapter 21: Refining Beast (Old Version)
Professor Xin said as he shook his finger, and the fake Galleon circled around Professor Xin’s finger for a few circles before disappearing. Then, CG’s wand floated up by itself, and Professor Xin casually grabbed it and shook it, and the compartment instantly turned into a spacious private room, with tea and snacks available! There was even…
“Is that the karaoke area?” Xiaopo pointed at the huge screen, independent tablet and gorgeous microphone next to it.
“Come on, come in, don’t be shy, it’s like home!” Professor Xin greeted everyone with a smile.
“Whose family is like this…” Xiaopo complained helplessly.
“Professor,” CG reminded in a helpless whisper, “Let’s change the setting to a more serious one.”
“Business?” Professor Xin asked in confusion, “Aren’t business usually done in places like this? Should we change to a dinner table?”
“Ahem…” Xiaopo coughed and quickly stopped Professor Xin: “Well, this side may be a little different…”
“Believe me! It’s all the same! It’s the same everywhere!” Professor Xin raised his hand and opened a bottle of drink next to him.
“You are really reliable…” Xiaopo looked at Professor Xin awkwardly, then looked at the DAs outside who were afraid to come in: “Let’s change to a normal cubicle, so that everyone can sit down.”
“Okay~” Professor Xin shook his head helplessly and snapped his fingers, and the surroundings finally returned to normal.
CG took the wand that Professor Xin handed back, and after everyone else sat down, he said, “Let’s get down to business!”
“What do you mean?” Professor Xin drank his drink by himself.
“What the hell is this? Even the drinks and snacks are cleared out!” Xiao Po rolled his eyes, took out Uncle Fatty’s big bag of snacks and distributed it to everyone, and looked at Professor Xin unhappily as he took a lot of snacks from it.
“Are these snacks for Muggles?” Lily asked curiously, looking at the different foods in the bag.
“I have some snacks too. I’ll go get them. Wait a moment.” Winice said as she walked outside.
“I’ll go with you!” Lily said, taking Winice’s hand.
“Tsk, just buy some more, wait. Come on, Scorpius, come and help!” Albus yelled, pulling Scorpius out!
“A bunch of useless guys!” Selena stood up with a frown on her face and rummaged through the luggage rack.
CG stared at everyone helplessly! By the time everyone sat down again, the various snacks on the table had piled up into a small mountain!
“It’s still better this way! DA, well, not bad!” Professor Xin ate with satisfaction and conjured some drinks for everyone.
“What you want to say is that the food is good…” Xiaopo complained in a low voice.
“Professor,” CG shook his head helplessly and spoke first: “That monster just now, wasn’t a Dementor?”
Hearing this, everyone except Professor Xin, Xiaopo and CG was shocked! That kind of despair and fear! If it wasn’t a Dementor, what could it be? Subconsciously, everyone stopped and listened carefully.
Professor Xin took off the wine flask and took a sip: “Of course!”
“But if it’s not a Dementor, then what is it? Invulnerable to swords and guns, and immune to water and fire. I’ve been thinking about it all the way, but I can’t think of anything like it!” CG ignored the people around him and continued.
Professor Xin turned his head and glanced at CG, then grabbed a bag of snacks and tore open the seal: “Your two ghosts are also invulnerable.”
“Wait a minute! Ghost?!” Albus couldn’t sit still any longer and stretched out his hand to interrupt the topic: “After you set up the magic circle and chased after them, you encountered a ghost? Can someone tell us what you encountered first?”
“We encountered a vengeful spirit and a bearded man!” Xiaopo said very seriously!
Then, Xiaopo saw Selena’s rolling eyes and iron fists!
“Have I ever told you?!” Selena punched the little guy on the head: “Let’s start from the beginning!?”
Xiaopo felt pain and described to everyone what happened honestly!
Amidst waves of exclamations, Xiaopo vividly recounted what had happened.
“So it’s a vengeful spirit? Can you already summon vengeful spirits? That’s very evil magic.” Albus asked while chewing the potato chips that Little Bro took out.
“The two at the back are them. The one that looks like a Dementor is definitely not one of them. Their appearances are too different!” Selena frowned.
CG recalled the situation at that time, nodded and said: “That’s right, and there is no good or bad magic. Besides, it was not summoned by me. I just wanted to change the terrain and stop the monster. Professor Xin was nearby at the time, and he should be able to feel the different properties of magic.”
“If that’s the case, then there must have been other people present at the time!” Professor Xin nodded.
“Bearded Man!” Xiaopo quickly interrupted, “I told you! He’s in the woods! But shouldn’t he have been captured by the organization?”
“I heard that those inspectors who were captured by the organization were kidnapped some time ago!” Selena said seriously, paused, and added: “From the prison that was strictly guarded by the organization!”
Everyone gasped at the same time!
“Who did this? That’s amazing, that’s the organization’s prison!” Jaina asked in surprise.
“I’m not sure. I heard it was the Eastern Guards, the ones wearing Zhongshan suits! But that group of Inspectors finally returned to the Ministry of Magic! The Ministry of Magic is keeping the details strictly confidential.” Selena continued.
“The Ministry of Magic has this ability? I don’t believe it. As for those Zhongshan suits…” Albus’s face was full of disdain.
“You also know about the organization~” Professor Xin said nonchalantly.
“Of course! I’ve seen some of their people before!” Xiaopo nodded and looked at the person next to Professor Xin: “I remember that he was a particularly unreliable guy. When he came to see us, he choked himself!”
“Aren’t all the people in the organization like that…” CG seemed to remember the incident outside the Pig’s Head Bar and shook his head helplessly.
“In that case, that means the Ministry of Magic has taken action against you again? After all, they are the only ones who have vengeful spirits,” Scorpius concluded.
Selena shook her head: “No, I heard that Bearded Man did not return to the Ministry of Magic. But this news has not been confirmed.”
“In that case, let’s talk about the monster just now. If it’s not a Dementor, then what is it?” CG didn’t want to talk more about the organization and changed the subject.
“That’s…” Professor Xin took a sip of wine.
Xiaopo absolutely believes that Professor Xin did it on purpose!
“Just tell me!” Xiaopo said helplessly.
Professor Xin swallowed the wine in his mouth and calmly said three words: “Refine the beast!”
“Refine the beast?!”
Xiaopo repeated in surprise this name he had never heard of!
“The lower grade transforms into sound, the middle grade transforms into shape, the higher grade transforms into energy! Refining beasts! So that’s it! Is it really related to those Zhongshan suits?” CG muttered.
I just felt that I could understand every word, but why did they all sound so…
Looking at the others who were equally confused, Xiaopo asked, “Can someone explain this to me?”
“Strange beast from the East!”
Chapter 22 Hello everyone, my last name is Xin, the same as Xin Qiji! (Old version)
“Oriental exotic beast!” Professor Xin said calmly, picked up the wine pot, took another big sip and continued: “It’s normal that you haven’t heard of it. After all, the history of magic in Europe is very short, and refined beasts are indeed rare. Let’s put it this way, a high-quality refined beast can not only have the ability of the things it transforms into, but also make up for its shortcomings due to its own characteristics!”
“Doesn’t that mean we are invincible?” Xiaopo said in surprise.
“It’s not that mysterious. The weaknesses of the refined beast itself cannot be compensated no matter how it transforms!” Professor Xin said nonchalantly.
“That’s what you said, but to be able to kill the refining beast, your passion must be extraordinary, right?!” CG thought about it and discovered more things.
“You’re a good kid!” Professor Xin seemed a little proud.
“Nine Nether Fire?” CG asked.
“You mean the Eternal Fire?” Professor Xin asked, then waved his hand: “That’s different! Have you heard of the Samadhi True Fire?!”
“Uh…” Xiaopo suddenly felt like he had traveled through time, with the word “disbelief” written all over his face!
Professor Xin rolled his eyes at Xiaopo and said nonchalantly, “I just said you don’t understand!”
“Samadhi True Fire, the fire that refines all things?!” CG seemed to have thought of something and asked.
“Sure!” Professor Xin looked at CG in surprise: “You called, CG, right? Let’s fight again when we have time!”
Xiao Po looked at Professor Xin with a frown on his face: “It’s not necessary, are you going to kill people to silence them?”
CG said seriously: “Okay.”
“Oh my god,” Albus couldn’t bear to watch it any longer. “What are you two thinking? Are you serious?”
“Then you come?!” Professor Xin turned around and asked.
“Um, well, the weather is nice tonight!” Albus pulled Scorpius and talked randomly.
“Yeah, that’s good!” Scorpius replied with a smile.
Xiaopo smiled and looked out the window. Before he knew it, the sky had become completely dark. Is it so late already?
The whistle sounded melodiously, and everyone hurriedly stood up and put on their school uniforms.
“Remember,” Selena finally instructed, “No matter what the monster is? No matter who is behind the bearded man? Since Xiaopo has been targeted, we can’t just sit there and wait for death! Be vigilant, and if you have any news, communicate in time!”
Seeing everyone nodding seriously, Professor Xin looked out the window with a smile.
DA, not bad!
Winice was the first to reach her hand in the middle!
One hand after another was placed on it!
Under everyone’s gaze, Professor Xin turned around and said, “Me too?!”
Xiaopo’s silly grinning face says it all!
Professor Xin rubbed his hair awkwardly and put his hand on top!
Then came the unanimous and loud slogans!
“DA!”
The children got off the train one after another, and the freshmen walked towards the dock, but the figure holding the lantern seemed much thinner.
The DAs naturally didn’t go over, after all, even Xiaopo was already in the second grade!
Walking towards the carriages parked nearby, Xiaopo looked at the magical creature in front of the carriages in surprise: “Is this the Thestral?”
“Can you see it?” Professor Xin asked in surprise.
(Note: Only those who have seen death can see the Thestrals.)
“Yeah.” Xiaopo nodded with mixed feelings.
“Sorry!” Professor Xin said seriously.
“It’s okay,” Xiaopo said with a silly smile on his face, “Are you coming with us?”
“No, I heard that professors always go in through another way.” Professor Xin rubbed Xiaopo’s head.
“Then we’ll go first.” Xiaopo said hello and got on a carriage with CG and Selena.
The other children followed their companions and rode in carriages towards the castle.
“That’s great!” Professor Xin said to himself, took a sip of wine, combed his hair, tied it into a ponytail, and turned around, wearing a fiery red wizard robe…
“Welcome! Welcome to all new students, welcome to Hogwarts! Welcome to all old students, come back and continue your studies in the new school year! …”
The process is still the same as usual, division of houses, and then speeches.
Only this time, Xiaopo was sitting in the audience, looking at those young and nervous faces with satisfaction.
The one who left the deepest impression on me was a little boy. What was his last name? I forgot, but his name is easy to remember, Foden~
When he came to the Sorting Hat, little Foden did not sit on the chair directly like the others. Instead, he tidied himself up very carefully, and then said loudly to the little girl in front of him who had been sorted into Slytherin, “I like you very much and want to be friends with you!”
The hall was silent for a full second, and then there were laughter, whistles, cheers, applause, and even blessings. I don’t know which of the funny people hummed the wedding march in unison. The noisy sound almost blew the magic roof off. The little girl in the snake house blushed at the time and tried to shrink her body to make herself less noticeable.
Unfortunately, little Foden was finally sorted into Hufflepuff by the Sorting Hat.
“Kids nowadays are really~”
Xiaopo clapped and sighed with a silly smile on his face. Thinking back to last year, he had almost no friends, but now, things are really much better!
“This academic year, our professor positions have changed!”
On the stage, Professor McGonagall continued to introduce: “Professor Hagrid suffered some injuries after the last battle in the Forbidden Forest, but of course he has recovered now. He decided to go to the mountains to take care of more magical creatures with his brother Grawp. So this year’s professor of Protection of Magical Creatures will be replaced by Professor Wilhelmina Grubbly-Plank. I think many of you have seen her.”
Professor Grubbly-Plank stood up and saluted, and the students in the audience burst into warm applause, especially the girls. After all, which girl wouldn’t want to touch the unicorn that Professor Grubbly-Plank took care of?
“Of course,” Professor McGonagall smiled and raised her hand to press down: “Our Defense Against the Dark Arts professor has changed again. I hope this won’t become a routine…”
There was a chuckle from the audience.
McGonagall raised her hand with a smile and introduced Professor Sheen who had already stood up: “Your Defense Against the Dark Arts professor this school year is Professor Sheen from the far east!”
Professor Xin stood up politely, with her ponytail tied neatly behind her head: “Hello everyone, my last name is Xin, Xin as in Xin Qiji! If you know Xin Qiji, I will bring you a lot of different things this school year, hoping to help you broaden your horizons and increase your knowledge. Thank you everyone.”
Applause rang out again. Many students still remembered that it was this professor who directed everyone on the train and calmed down the chaos caused by the Dementors.
Professor McGonagall also clapped and looked at everyone with a smile: “Okay, now! The dinner begins!”
Chapter 23 Wands Up! Let’s Fight! (Old Version)
After the dinner, Xiaopo returned to his familiar dormitory and sorted out the luggage that had been delivered to him, although he didn’t have much luggage.
CG still stood by the window, looking at the scenery outside.
“Professor Xin,” CG turned around and asked hesitantly, “How did you two know each other?”
Hearing CG’s question, Xiaopo instantly became interested: “This is a long story! We had a fight as soon as we met!”
“Start from the beginning!” CG smiled helplessly and repeated Selena’s words.
“no problem!”
Xiaopo sat down on the bed, put down the textbook in his hand, and introduced his summer vacation experience with great interest…
This lecture lasted for several hours. It was already past lights-out time, but Xiaopo was still lying on the bed, talking excitedly: “Later, we really did fly here by plane, but unfortunately, I slept all the way and didn’t see the scenery above the clouds.”
CG lay on his bed, listening quietly, with one hand behind his head and the other hand raised to his eyes, a ball of fire rising.
Xiaopo looked over here following the light, and the fire seemed a bit like Professor Xin’s wine fire.
Xiaopo smiled silly and looked at CG: “How about you? How was your summer vacation?”
CG extinguished the flames on his fingertips: “Not as exciting as you, but I did make a few friends…”
The next day, Xiaopo got up earlier than CG!
Wash up, have breakfast, and welcome a new day!
“It’s great!” In the open space outside the castle, Xiaopo stretched lazily with pride, letting the morning sun shine on his body.
“Good morning!” Selena greeted from afar!
“Good morning!” Xiaopo waved his hands exaggeratedly.
Selena quickly ran over and pressed Xiaopo’s hand down awkwardly!
Laughter could be heard from time to time. Selena rolled her eyes at Xiaopo in annoyance and said, “You are hopeless…”
“At least they are not hiding from me anymore!” Xiaopo had a silly smile on his face.
Selena sighed helplessly, “Where’s CG?”
“I went to class with Jaina!” Xiaopo said casually.
“Let’s go too. The first class is Defense Against the Dark Arts. Let’s go and see if that crazy woman can attend class seriously!” Selena said unhappily.
“Is this how you treat professors?” Professor Xin’s lazy voice came from behind.
Selena turned around and looked at Professor Xin, who was wearing shorts, a vest and a large palm leaf fan, and asked, “Is this the attire a professor should wear?”
“Do you have any objections?!” Professor Xin picked up the wine jug nonchalantly.
Selena rolled her eyes, turned her head away, and muttered softly: “I don’t believe there is still water in it!”
It was obvious that Professor Xin had heard it. He held the wine jug in front of Selena and said, “Want a taste?”
“I don’t want to bother with you!” Selena turned her head away again.
Professor Xin laughed loudly and patted Xiaopo on the shoulder: “Let’s go, ignore her and go to class!”
Xiaopo turned his head and looked at Selena…
“Let’s go!” Professor Xin used a little force, and Xiaopo couldn’t help but follow!
Selena stamped her feet angrily and followed silently!
“How did you get here from there?” Xiaopo asked curiously. Professor Xin didn’t look like he was out to bask in the sun.
“Come to class!” Professor Xin answered as a matter of course!
Xiaopo realized that he was being treated as an idiot again, and quickly explained: “I know you are here for class, but I mean why don’t you go directly to the classroom from the castle? What did you do over there? Isn’t that the forbidden forest over there?”
“I live over there, in the cottage left by Hagrid!” Professor Xin turned around and pointed to the strange house in the distance.
“Ah?” Xiaopo exclaimed in surprise.
“You are also responsible for guarding the forbidden forest?” Selena obviously reacted faster.
“Well, what else? Professor Grubbly-Plank doesn’t like living there, so I’ll take over…” Professor Xin said nonchalantly.
Selena narrowed her eyes. “You are not plotting something! What on earth are you doing in Hogwarts…”
“You guessed it right! I came here to…” Professor Xin lowered his voice and whispered mysteriously into Selena’s ear: “To deal with all of you little brats one by one!”
Selena quickly dodged! Her hands kept gesturing between the two of them. I really don’t know if she was venting her dissatisfaction or trying to drive away the crazy woman next to her~
“What the hell is wrong with me that I actually leaned over to listen to what this crazy woman said!”
Xiaopo looked at Selena with sympathy! Perhaps only Professor Xin could deal with Selena!
“Hahahaha!” Professor Xin laughed wildly and pushed open the door of the castle!
In the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom.
Professor Xin looked at the brightly lit classroom and walked up to the podium with satisfaction!
He waved his hand and swept away all the desks and chairs, and said to the students in the audience: “Raise your wands!”
The Gryffindors and Ravenclaws, eager to try, drew out their wands in unison!
“Now!” Professor Xin raised his voice: “Let’s fight!”
“ah?”
Questioning voices rang out in unison in the classroom!
“Why?” Selena asked back: “Shouldn’t we…”
Professor Ke Xin had already made a move, and with a crisp sound, a clear handprint slapped Selena’s face!
“Is this reason enough?!”
Even a smart person like Selena was stunned for three seconds! Was I slapped in the face? It didn’t hurt! But this clear red mark… Wait! I was slapped in the face! This crazy woman!
“You’re good!” Selena picked up her wand angrily and grabbed Xiaopo with her other hand: “What are you waiting for! Let’s go together!”
Xiaopo took a second to react to the situation and then rushed forward!
All the other students who were still hesitating received a loud slap in the face!
The students who reacted quickly did not hesitate and pointed their wands at Professor Xin! The students who reacted slowly were hit a few more times! Professor Xin successfully angered everyone!
There was magic in the classroom~
Unfortunately, after the magic, more people were flying around, including the children who were knocked away by Professor Xin!
10 minutes later!
Among all the second-year students of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw, including Crawford and Selena, not a single one can stand up again!
“That’s it?”
Professor Xin was waving a palm-leaf fan and walking proudly among the crowd, barking at this and kicking that from time to time!
“I’ll fight you!”
Selena gritted her teeth, mixed her magic with the few martial arts she learned from CG, and turned over and stood up!
“Your spirit is worthy of recognition!”
After knocking Selena down again in less than a second, Professor Xin commented proudly.
“If you have the ability, go and fight the seniors!”
Xiao Po shouted angrily, showing his arm which was hurt from the fall.
“Anything else?”
After rolling his eyes at Xiaopo, Professor Xin returned to the podium and asked loudly amidst the wailing!
“No!”
The children tried their best to respond, fearing that if they didn’t answer, they would provoke this crazy woman again! Why didn’t anyone take care of it?
“very good!”
Chapter 24 Who else? (Old version)
Professor Xin answered and waved his palm-leaf fan. The curtains were drawn, the desks returned to their places, and the chairs pushed the children back to their seats from the ground.
Waves of cool dew fell from the sky, instantly healing the children’s wounds.
In surprise!
The holographic projection has appeared in the center of the podium!
“Let’s do the comments below!” Professor Xin held up the tablet and clicked the play button!
Xiao Po looked at himself and others in the holographic projection. Professor Xin captured, analyzed, and corrected each clear picture one by one! When the camera was played back, the holographic image actually responded in another way according to what Professor Xin said!
But in the end, he was beaten down again and again by Professor Xin!
But the time of persistence has been getting longer and longer!
“What is this?” Xiaopo thought in surprise and looked at Selena uncertainly!
From the looks of other classmates, Xiaopo saw the same doubts as himself!
“Actual combat!” Selena nodded affirmatively, not only looking at Xiaopo, but also at all the inquiring eyes around her, then lowered her head and carefully recorded every knowledge point taught by Professor Xin!
“Take notes! It’s a good habit!” Professor Xin obviously heard what Selena said and paused the holographic projection: “But, can we stop using parchment? We can already let you do 3D with naked eyes, can’t we use a tablet?”
As Professor Xin was speaking, a tablet magically appeared on each desk! It clearly read MADE IN HUAXIA!
The students looked at the miniature holographic projection on the tablet in amazement. Key points boxes were already listed next to the projection!
“Is this something for Muggles?” a Ravenclaw nearby shouted in surprise.
“Why be afraid of Muggle things? Let’s learn from each other’s strengths and make up for each other’s weaknesses!” Professor Xin said, holding up his tablet to show everyone how to operate it and how to use magic to achieve more functions!
Then, the course continues!
Xiaopo was pleasantly surprised to find that this time, even the students who were least interested in studying were concentrating on listening to Professor Xin’s explanation while watching the demonstration in front of them!
The disdain on Selena’s face towards Professor Xin disappeared without a trace. Now the expression on Selena’s face was exactly the same as when she listened to the classes of every professor she respected, focused and meticulous!
The bell rang for the end of get out of class! For the first time, I felt that time passed so quickly!
After Professor Xin announced that everyone could take the tablets home and use them, the whole class was excited!
“It’s sponsored by China!” Professor Xin reminded.
But no one was listening seriously anymore. Everyone excitedly walked out of the classroom holding their tablets!
And in the following week, Professor Xin really put into practice what she said to Selena!
That’s right, that’s the sentence!
“I’m here to take care of all of you little brats one by one!”
No matter which grade the Defense Against the Dark Arts class was, in Professor Shin’s first class, he would beat them until no one was willing to stand up again! Then he would shout, “Who else?!”
Xiaopo is very curious about how Professor Xin defeated CG!
CG ate silently with the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously, which made Jaina speechless!
He pointed at CG with the fork still stuck in the pie: “How dare you laugh like that! Even if I let you be an assistant coach, you don’t have to beat us so hard! Hurry up and participate in the Quidditch selection! I’ll show you how I deal with you on the field! Just wait!”
Time flies, and the first week has passed in such a bustle! For the time being, the courses taught by other professors remain the same, but after seeing that every child is holding a tablet in their hands, I guess the change will not be far away.
On the weekend, Xiaopo took the make-up exams for various subjects with trepidation.
Although the results were not announced on the spot, after seeing the satisfied expressions of the professors, Xiaopo felt that his efforts during the summer vacation were not in vain.
Just when Xiaopo was considering whether he should buy a bottle of wine to thank Professor Xin, the excited Jaina had already dragged CG and Xiaopo to the court and threw a flying broom to each of them!
CG shook his head helplessly and participated in the Gryffindor Quidditch selection with the equally excited Little Bro.
As expected, CG was successfully selected and became the new Chaser!
It’s just a pity that Xiaopo was not selected, not that Xiaopo can’t fly.
After removing the black crystal, Xiaopo used his current abilities and the black and red magic to easily control the broom.
It’s just… ah…
In Jaina’s words: “Little Bro, control yourself! We are playing ball! Not smashing every ball! Hey! Don’t chase others! Control your broom!”
“I really didn’t mean it…” Xiaopo looked at the Bludger that he smashed and apologized awkwardly.
A new week has begun, and Xiaopo is still immersed in the joy of flying!
“I really didn’t expect that I would actually be flying on a broom!” The silly smile on Xiaopo’s face became brighter and brighter!
Unfortunately, the beautiful dream was interrupted by a cry from the people around him. Xiaopo wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and heard a surprising news!
“Martial arts!” Selena’s surprised cry came through the tablet, shaking the eardrums of every student!
“What’s the problem?” Professor Xin turned and looked at Selena!
“Can martial arts be taught?” Selena asked as a matter of course: “Do you really understand it or not? Have you got permission? What about the rules? What about the inheritance?”
Professor Xin seemed to have expected Selena to say this. He took out an antique wooden sign and placed it on Selena’s desk!
“I! Am the inheritance!” Professor Xin said domineeringly!
The appearance of the wooden sign was shown to everyone through the tablet!
But Xiaopo could clearly smell the smell of alcohol on the wooden sign…
“Did you spill wine on it…” Xiaopo muttered in a low voice.
“Any other questions?”
Professor Xin simply ignored Xiaopo’s complaints!
Selena wanted to say more, but seeing the eager eyes of her classmates around her, Selena chose to remain silent!
Yes! That is a legendary martial art!
That’s something you can only see in movies!
Who would have thought that one day, Hogwarts would also be able to learn this secret method from the East!
“Very good!” Professor Xin put away the sign and walked to the podium with satisfaction: “First lesson…”
Shaking his head helplessly, Xiaopo looked at the classmates around him and sighed. He didn’t know how they would react when they heard that they would have to stand in a posture for a whole class. Seeing that the suffering he had endured in the past was suddenly going to fall on others, why was he suddenly a little excited?
“First lesson, Tai Chi!” Professor Xin came to the stage and introduced it very seriously: “Tai Chi can bring peace to the world, and Baji can determine the fate of the world! I think you should have heard of it more or less. The Tai Chi here refers to Tai Chi. The development of Tai Chi to this day…”
Wait a minute! Are we going to start with Tai Chi? Xiaopo was wondering, why is it different from what we agreed on? What about the stance we agreed on? Aren’t you going to practice the basics? It’s fine if you don’t practice the basics, but don’t you need to learn the basic steps and moves? What the hell is this?
Tai Chi! CG has been teaching DA martial arts for half a semester, but hasn’t taught him Tai Chi yet! Tai Chi is the first lesson! ? What the hell? !
“professor!”
Xiaopo was about to weakly raise his hand to ask a question, but Selena had already stood up!
Chapter 25 Think! (Old version)
“Shouldn’t we start from the basics?” Selena asked seriously.
Professor Xin scratched his head and did not get angry immediately: “What do you mean?”
“For example, physical fitness, horse stance, and body movements. Do you start by learning routine moves right away?” Selena raised the question on behalf of Xiaopo.
“Oh, these~” Professor Xin suddenly realized, then shook his head: “What a pity, you don’t have enough time!”
“What are you saying…” Selena hesitated and said something else: “I don’t understand.”
“Basic skills require several years of practice. Do you intend to have everyone standing still for several semesters?” Professor Xin looked at Selena.
“If your basic skills are not solid…” Selena said firmly.
“A lot of problems will arise!” Professor Xin finished the rest of the sentence for Selena: “Don’t worry, I know what I am doing.”
Professor Xin patted Selena on the shoulder and motioned for Selena to sit down.
Then, the holographic projection began to demonstrate boxing.
For the entire class, Xiaopo was following the projection and gesturing slowly… Hearing sounds came one after another…
Is it really that slow?
More than one person had this question in mind.
Professor Xin did not give any guidance to anyone, not even a little bit of answer!
Until half time!
“Alright!” Professor Xin knocked on the podium, reminding everyone to pay attention: “Now, inject magic into the movements!”
“What?!”
Xiaopo felt that he had heard it wrong! Did you teach us how to inject magic? Just let everyone inject magic?
What about meditation? What about breathing exercises? Do you teach them?
“What should we do?” a tall Gryffindor asked obediently, raising his hand.
“Think!” Professor Xin uttered a word clearly!
Xiaopo suddenly realized that it was he who was thinking about it!
It is true that listening to your words is better than speaking them all!
What the hell is going on?
Can you be more irresponsible?!
Just when Xiaopo was secretly complaining with other classmates!
Selena had already imitated the same movements as before, but this time, Selena closed her eyes!
Lan Que Wei, Single Whip, Lift Hand Up…
The students all looked over at the same time. Xiaopo, who was very sensitive, suddenly felt that the magic in the air was flowing…
Air without wind automatic
call!
Suddenly there was a loud noise!
A layer of light blue ignited in Selena’s palm, and then, as Selena moved, the magic covered Selena’s palm!
The magic, although very faint and thin, but!
Done!
How is it possible! Xiaopo couldn’t believe his eyes!
CG has been teaching so hard for a whole year, but Selena still hasn’t learned it. How is it possible that she can learn it in just one short class!
No one came out to explain. Professor Xin had already found a chair for himself and sat on it proudly to play with his tablet!
The holographic projection was still gesturing, but next to it, a smaller version of Selena appeared!
This also gave Selena a small window! ?
I am too weak to complain!
But other students have already started to imitate!
The weak Ravenclaw girl next to Xiaopo actually succeeded!
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Balls of magic were ignited in the hands of students one after another! Xiaopo turned his head back and forth, and gradually found that his neck could no longer keep up!
It’s like a pile of matches!
When there was no light, everyone was gesturing quietly! But once one match succeeded, countless matches were ignited in an instant!
Selena! You are not dragging your feet!
This sentence of Tianjin dialect, which he heard from somewhere, suddenly rang in Xiaopo’s mind!
“Clear your thoughts!”
When did Professor Xin’s voice become so serious? Xiaopo quickly looked towards the podium!
Xiaopo swears that Professor Xin was definitely playing games on his tablet just a second ago!
But at this moment, she had already lifted her hair and was staring at him with extremely serious eyes!
Xiaopo quickly focused his mind, stopped having random thoughts, and began to imitate the slow movements!
slow!
It’s really too slow!
There’s no way you can fight with such slow movements!
No! Why am I still thinking about random things? Is it because it’s too slow? So I have time to think!
etc!
think?
Professor Xin told us how to inject magic power!
think!
No wonder! No wonder!
Xiaopo finally understood what Professor Xin meant!
Isn’t this what I learned from Professor Xin during the summer vacation? How come I have completely forgotten about it in just a few days?
If he stopped thinking about him, Xiaopo would completely let go of his thoughts!
The movements became slower and slower, Xiaopo had completely forgotten that his body was still moving subconsciously! His breathing coordinated with his body, adjusting rhythmically, without any deliberate control!
Another magical flame is ignited!
This time it’s Xiaopo’s turn!
Xiaopo opened his eyes and looked at the pure magic power he had never seen before, flowing between his palms, in surprise!
No more black, no more orange-red! No more ominous feeling!
This magic is so pure, so peaceful!
Xiaopo looked at Professor Xin excitedly!
The hair that had been lifted up has been let down, and that crazy woman is really just playing games!
But, it really happened!
Xiaopo was so excited that he wanted to find someone to share his experience with, his breathing became shortness of breath!
Where is Selena?
Xiaopo looked in the direction of Selena!
Selena, who was still continuing with her eyes closed, suddenly frowned and opened her eyes abruptly!
“retreat!”
A loud shout rang out from the podium!
Everyone subconsciously stopped their actions, and the magic went out in the students’ hands!
What? Something happened?!
Xiaopo was startled and turned his head to look forward!
Only then did I realize that the one that others were running away from was actually me!
Looking at his hands again, the black and red flames were burning fiercely!
Selena subconsciously took a step forward!
But Professor Xin pulled him behind him!
A terrifying roar came from above Xiaopo’s head!
Xiaopo raised his head in surprise!
The black and red magic power was rushing towards Professor Xin ferociously!
“Stop!”
Xiaopo roared, trying to control his magic!
“don’t want!”
Professor Xin raised his hand anxiously!
What you say is what you do!
Xiaopo now understands what Professor Xin means!
“People with this level of magic power really don’t need to learn how to control it~”
The roaring magic seemed to have heard Xiaopo’s command and instantly surged back into Xiaopo’s body!
For the first time, Xiaopo felt that his magic power was so overwhelming!
The darkness slowly occupied Xiaopo’s eyes!
Xiaopo closed his eyes in pain!
When he opened his eyes again, a pair of black pupils stared fiercely at the front!
Fear and ominousness instantly filled every corner of the classroom, and an invisible layer of pressure fell on everyone!
Is this the magic a second grader should have?!
This must be the legendary dark devil!
“Get out,” Professor Xin stared at Xiaopo and spoke softly to other students, as if he was afraid that his voice would be too loud and would anger Xiaopo!
But is the current Xiaopo still Xiaopo?
The other students subconsciously moved closer behind Professor Xin!
What’s the use of coming over here!
“Everyone get out!”
Professor Xin raised his voice and scolded, then raised his hand and opened the door of the classroom!
But before other students could react, Xiaopo took action first!
Raise one hand!
A powerful force is coming!
Professor Xin can no longer care about so many things!
Raise your hand and a hurricane will come! Push everyone towards the door!
Chapter 26: Standing in front of everyone! (Old version)
This was the last roar everyone heard!
Professor Xin’s magic hurt so much, even though it was only the wind that sent them out!
The students rubbed their bodies that were hurt by the wind and fell, and tried hard to get up!
With a loud bang behind me, the classroom door was slammed shut!
Under everyone’s astonished gaze, a layer of magic shield slowly fell!
What is this? The protective spell of Hogwarts?
“Professor Xin is still inside!” Someone shouted in horror!
Selena struggled to rush in! The Gryffindors and Ravenclaws nearby quickly grabbed her!
How scary is it in there?
Even if they had not experienced what had just happened, these children could sense the magic power escaping from the gaps just by looking at it!
Fierce fight! Fight to the death!
No matter how you describe it, it’s not an exaggeration!
“Calm down! Selena!”
Selena, who was struggling, suddenly heard that familiar voice!
Selena turned around anxiously, her voice trembling: “CG, Xiaoba…”
“I feel it, don’t worry!” CG said calmly, having already taken out his magic wand!
Powerful magic power gathers at the tip of CG’s staff!
It’s a curse-breaking spell!
Those who are knowledgeable have already recognized the magic of CG!
Just the strength of this magic!
Another dark lord?
Is this genius?!
The students subconsciously put their hands in front of their eyes; the bright white light concentrated on the tips of the staffs was too dazzling!
As everyone watches, the CG magic wand points forward!
The wind is blowing! The magic power is surging!
The children pulled each other against the wall! The murals on the wall were crumbling and hitting the wall. The people in the paintings tried to grab everything they could to prevent themselves from being blown away!
However, even such powerful magic!
Hogwarts, still motionless!
CG put his hand on the protective shield, and the magic of protection remained unchanged!
“Let me do it, kid!” Professor McGonagall appeared at the corner of the corridor, her emerald green robe swaying, and walked towards this side quickly.
“After the final battle, the school was fully reinforced. It’s great that you can do this!” Hermione, who was following beside, helped CG aside!
Professor Flitwick performed magic and helped other students up, while Professor Slughorn took out some potions and distributed them to everyone!
“Professor, you are finally here! Professor Xin is still in there! Facing the dark devil alone!” A Ravenclaw girl next to her said in a crying voice.
“Xiaobo is not the dark devil!” Selena shouted angrily!
“Of course not! It’s all because of him, because of him…”
A Ravenclaw boy next to him yelled indignantly, but shut his mouth under CG’s gaze.
The Gryffindors were silent!
CG didn’t expect them to help Xiaopo when needed, as Jaina once called for. Ordinary people, it’s enough to do this!
“Alright! Classmates!” Hermione looked at the children around her: “No matter what, we have to save people first! Let’s go back first…”
Although they wanted to stay and see what was going on, the students still stood up one after another. With the intensity of magic just now, they would just be a burden if they stayed here!
However, at this moment, Selena grabbed the person in front who wanted to leave!
“Please wait a moment!”
Standing in front of everyone, Selena looked at everyone sincerely!
“Professor! Students! I beg you to stay and take a good look!”
Tears were welling up in Selena’s eyes!
“Take a good look at Xiaopo! He is definitely not a dark demon! Before that dark magic appeared, I clearly felt his magic power! Pure! Peaceful!”
Selena took out the fake Galleon and held it high!
“CG and I promise, our DA promises, that we will protect everyone! If Xiaopo is really the dark devil, we will definitely fulfill the DA’s promise!”
The Gagaron began to get warm! The densely packed messages on it kept changing!
Noisy and chaotic footsteps kept coming from afar!
Albus, Scorpius, Trod, Wynnes… one after another DAs rushed over from all directions at the fastest speed!
“We are the DA!” Trod was a little out of breath!
“Will stand in front of everyone!” Albus completed the rest of Trod’s words!
Just this one sentence! No more extra nonsense!
Albus pulled Scorpius, drew out his wand, and protected everyone!
Trod stood silently by the side!
The professor didn’t stop talking! This means tacit consent!
The rest of the choices are up to the children to make!
Hesitation, silence!
CG turned around silently: “Anyway, please hurry up.”
Winice’s hands were shaking and she was so anxious that she was about to cry!
Lily wiped away Winice’s tears, took Jaina and Winice’s hands, and stood beside Trod!
“Damn it!” a Gryffindor cursed, “I’m going to stay and see…”
“Stop swearing!” another Gryffindor next to him scolded, leaning silently against the wall!
More and more people stopped and slowly gathered back!
Selena tried hard to wipe away her tears, only then she realized that she had lost her composure: “Thank you, thank you everyone!”
“We are all friends!” The Ravenclaw girl who just stood up and spoke gently took Selena’s hand!
The Ravenclaw who had shouted looked at Selena apologetically and also chose to stay.
Hermione looked at Flitwick, and Professor Flitwick nodded and cast a protective spell in front of the children!
Without hesitation, Professor McGonagall raised her wand and cast the castle magic to remove the light film outside the classroom!
In just a moment! The magic power swept out!
The glass exploded and debris flew everywhere!
Professor McGonagall waved her wand! She swept away all the magic power! She gave a calm and clear shout! The door opened!
The dark magic roars ferociously!
The alcohol fog was so thick that I couldn’t see clearly!
All I saw were various lights and shadows flashing in black, red, white and yellow!
There is no competition of skills anymore, what is left now is only the collision of magic!
Without hesitation, CG rushed in first! But with a roar that was enough to shake the mountains and forests, he flew out backwards!
The professors looked at everything in front of them in amazement!
Hermione quickly helped CG up!
Suddenly, Professor Xin roared from inside: “It’s time to fight to the death! Everyone retreat!”
Then I felt the temperature around me rising rapidly!
“not good!”
Professor McGonagall shouted, pulling CG and Hermione away quickly!
Professor Flitwick, cast the spell quickly!
But the alcohol mist, so thick that it made it completely impossible to see, had already been ignited!
Amidst a huge roar, a blazing white light burst out of the door!
Professor McGonagall opened her arms to block CG and Hermione!
The flames rushed up and licked Professor McGonagall’s face! At the critical moment, Professor Flitwick’s magic finally caught up! The shield stuck to Professor McGonagall’s frame, blocking the flames and Professor McGonagall!
An ominous shattering sound was heard!
CG quickly raised his hand, and the holy white magic was injected into it!
The shield finally held, but the magic continued!
However, at this moment, a figure flew out from the door!
Chapter 27 My name is Hu Xiaopo! (Old version)
The sharp-eyed students shouted out!
Still wearing shorts and a vest, but the wine pot and the palm-leaf fan are gone!
The ponytails behind their heads were tied together stubbornly, even though the rubber bands that bound them had already turned to ashes!
“Really!”
Professor Xin slapped the ground with his hands, turned over and spat the blood in his mouth onto the ground!
Put force on your feet and move forward!
But at this moment, the giant claw formed by black and red magic had already grabbed Professor Xin’s throat!
The magic fades and the dust settles!
Xiaopo’s dark pupils remain the same!
CG is about to rush forward!
Professor Xin shouted angrily: “Don’t move! He is trying hard, give him some time!”
The black-eyed Xiaopo stared at the prey in front of him!
“Go ahead!” Professor Xin taunted!
The huge black and red claws were obviously retracted!
The hearts of the people around couldn’t help but tighten!
Professor Xin quickly raised his arm and signaled everyone not to move again!
He smiled and looked at Xiaopo: “What’s wrong? Are you going to kill me?!”
Is this crazy?!
It’s already like this, and you still want to provoke me!
Do you know that everyone is worried about you?
Please shut up!
Is this how you call for a miracle?
But where is the miracle?
The giant claws are slowly tightening!
Professor Xin finally stopped mocking and provoking us. His face turned red and he could no longer make a sound!
In just a few seconds, Professor Xin’s hands dropped limply!
Selena’s face was full of tears, and she closed her mouth helplessly: “DA! Let’s go~”
“Bastard! All of you are bastards!” Albus gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, cursing loudly!
Trod raised his wand with a look of reluctance! Scorpius patted Albus! Walk forward! Several girls were already crying!
They lost! DA lost! But even if they lost, they will still keep their promises!
Tears blurred her eyes, but Selena still raised her wand!
The professors stood in front…
“It’s enough that the DA has such an attitude!” Professor Slughorn sighed and said helplessly.
“If you kids are allowed to take risks, then what are we doing here?” Professor Flitwick’s voice was surprisingly low and hoarse this time.
Professor McGonagall raised her wand with regret, and Hermione covered Winice’s eyes with reluctance!
“etc!”
CG suddenly shouted! Stand in front of Xiaopo!
“We can’t wait any longer!” Selena cried, “Professor Xin will die!”
“CG!” Hermione took a step forward.
“I said wait!” CG opened his arms and roared! The pressure of magic fell, and a barrier unfolded!
“Student CG!” Professor McGonagall’s expression turned stern!
“Everyone! I can’t let you…”
CG’s low voice spread, but he felt someone knocking weakly on the back of his head!
CG looked behind him in surprise, and saw Professor Xin, who had rolled his eyes but was desperately raising his arm to hit him!
“Give it to him…” Professor Xin squeezed out the sound from his throat with all his strength: “Shi…ji, an…”
“Give him some time!” Selena cried and covered her mouth. “Professor Xin is not dead, he is still holding on. He said he would give Xiaopo some time!!!”
Surprised! Puzzled! Anxious! Helpless!
What is this feeling like now…
The giant claws loosened? Professor Xin’s rolling eyes and increasingly red face were enough to tell everyone! No!
So this is it!
With a whoosh, Xiaopo’s other free hand suddenly reached behind him!
“Be careful!” the professors warned loudly!
CG turned his head and looked!
This direction is definitely not towards me!
This is it!
Xiaopo slapped the burning and steaming black and red magic behind him! He clenched his five fingers tightly, and the veins on his arms bulged!
“I…said…”
A slight sound echoed around Xiaopo~
That was the murmur coming from the little broken throat!
“Don’t… come… to… affect… me…”
The sound became clearer and clearer, and the magic power caught by Xiaopo was being pulled away by Xiaopo’s arms!
Everyone watched in amazement!
Xiaopo! Xiaopo was stripping away his own magic power! Who among those present could understand the pain of being torn apart? !
“I!”
Magic roared in pain, trying to stick back to Xiaopo’s body! But Xiaopo just gritted his teeth and spoke word by word…
“yes!”
Xiaopo pulled it out firmly! The magic power began to twist! The black flame became more and more chaotic!
“Hu!”
A clear breaking sound was heard clearly by everyone!
“Small!”
The black and red magic was thrown heavily to the ground by Xiaopo!
A roar from the bottom of his heart! Xiaopo looked up to the sky!
Transparent and pure magic power rushed up into the sky! It crushed the giant claws! It broke through the defenses! It rushed towards everyone in the field!
Professor Flitwick exclaimed! This level of magic is not something these children can withstand!
Selena shouted! But there was no need for Selena to remind them! Every DA had already rushed forward! Even if they had to use their bodies to resist! They would protect others! This! Was the promise of the DA!
“Go back!”
Hermione tried to stop the children! During the struggle, Professor McGonagall raised her wand!
However, it was too late, everything was too late! The speed at which the magic power spread was definitely not something that could be stopped in time!
As they screamed and shouted, the magic power rushed out!
CG turned around calmly, smiled, and opened his arms!
“You are wrong!”
A loud shout! Absolute trust and absolute pride!
Vibrating everyone’s eardrums!
The magic swept through! Everyone was safe and sound!
The impact was as swift as a storm, yet it gave people such a peaceful feeling!
This is! Xiaopo’s magic!
Pure! Peaceful!
“We are right~” Selena spread her hands and knelt on the ground, crying excitedly and shouting: “We! Are right!”
“Ah!!!” Albus roared and shook Scorpius and Trod madly!
Jaina picked up Winice who was beside her, turned around, and then she and Lily who was beside them, the three girls burst into tears!
DAs have been suppressed for too long!
Little Broken! Dark Lord! This stigma has lasted for too long!
Now there is finally someone who can witness all this!
Starting today! An entire grade of Ravenclaw and Gryffindor can prove that Little Bro is definitely not what the legend says!
The professors removed the magic!
Gryffindor and Ravenclaw stood silently by, looking at today’s protagonists and sending them blessings! Several girls helped Wynnes, Lily and Jaina, who were already crying, and patted their shoulders gently!
Albus rushed over excitedly and lifted up Little Bro!
Xiaopo looked weakly at CG, at Selena, at Albus, Trod and Scorpius who were rushing over, at Heihong who had just been cleansed by his pure magic, at Hermione, at the mad professor who had recovered and was covered in wounds but still looked at him proudly, at the kind eyes of everyone around him, and a big silly smile appeared on his face again!
A feeling of dizziness came over me!
Albus quickly put Xiaopo down!
Xiaopo tried hard to stay awake, and the DAs quickly made way for him! Xiaopo walked silently in front of the professors and classmates!
Bowed deeply.
“Hello everyone! My name is Hu Xiaopo, and I hope I can be friends with you all!” Xiaopo said very seriously, with a silly smile on his face again!
The professors said nothing and stepped aside gracefully!
This moment should belong to these children!
A silver-haired Ravenclaw looked around, a little embarrassed, but walked forward very seriously, straightened his school robe, and stretched out his right hand: “Hello, my name is Ellie, Ellie McKeon, I’m glad to be your friend!”
Applause! Heartfelt applause! Even the professors started to applaud.
One by one, the children came forward, introduced themselves, and shook hands sincerely with Xiaopo!
Xiaopo smiled foolishly, tears streaming out from the corners of his eyes!
I can’t stop it, I really can’t stop it!
Even if there is magic!
“Thank you, thank you everyone!”
Xiaopo held on until he shook hands with the last person! He felt dizzy again! Two strong hands supported Xiaopo’s back, helping him stand firm again!
CG whispered: “Don’t worry…”
Selena nodded: “We are behind you!”
Chapter 28: All members are top students~ (old version)
Xiaopo finally fainted.
Even an adult would not be able to bear having his magic stripped away in such a abrupt manner, let alone a child.
Professor Xin was the first to pull Selena and CG apart and rushed forward!
He placed his hand on Xiaopo’s chest, and a white light appeared in his palm. However, that light flickered unsteadily, like a flashlight that needed a battery change…
Professor Xin withdrew his hand and rubbed his hair randomly, as if he would feel uncomfortable if he didn’t mess up his hair…
“How is he?”
Ellie’s voice rang out, asking the question that everyone was most concerned about on behalf of the students around her who couldn’t squeeze to the front.
“fine!”
Professor Xin replied nonchalantly.
He fell down too!
Several professors came over to check on them and confirmed that the two were just exhausted, and only then did they feel relieved.
The professors settled the students and sent Xiaopo and Professor Xin to the school infirmary!
After hearing what happened, Madam Pomfrey still felt uneasy and gave the two of them a detailed examination.
Fortunately, everything is normal…
But this is what’s abnormal!
How can a normal person still be normal when their magic is stripped away?
The professors looked at each other in bewilderment. Perhaps, this question can only be answered by time…
Xiaopo slept all day and only woke up slowly in the evening!
He fumbled to put on his glasses and looked at Professor Xin who looked like he had lost all hope in life.
Xiao Po’s heart, which had been put at ease, was lifted up again…
“Are you okay?!” Xiaopo asked worriedly.
“Something’s up!” Professor Xin turned around expressionlessly, “You’re not allowed to drink here! You’re not allowed to leave the hospital!”
“I￥%……*”
Xiaopo was mumbling silently, mumbling words that were incomprehensible.
Professor Xin slapped the snacks piled up next to him, randomly pulled out the largest candy, tore open the package as if to vent his anger, and stuffed it into his mouth!
“Where do all these snacks come from?” Xiaopo was looking forward to the answer.
really!
After rolling his eyes at Xiaopo, Professor Xin said incoherently: “What’s wrong with eating your snacks!?”
Xiao Po smiled foolishly and lay back on the bed! Recalling those sincere handshakes one after another! That memory he would never forget!
The next day, Xiaopo and Professor Xin were discharged from the hospital smoothly!
As the course continued, more and more children learned to cast spells without a wand! It was only a month! No one could have imagined how much these children’s magic skills would improve after a semester!
Is this the benefit of being inclusive? Maybe.
But anyway, with such great progress, Professor McGonagall finally approved Professor Xin’s suggestions for adjustments to other courses.
In Transfiguration and Spells classes, the magic map gives a detailed division and change pattern of magic! The segmented explanation is obviously more popular than those magic learning methods that rely solely on book explanations and personal experience!
In herbal medicine, while observing those plants, children can directly observe the structures inside the plants that are normally impossible to see through the holographic projection of the tablet.
In the Potions class, although Professor Slughorn refused to let the children directly use the portable magic material processing box (after all, correctly handling potions is a skill that every child must learn), he was still very happy to allow the children to use the tablet to assist and specifically correct the children’s wrong movements when preparing potions!
Purely theoretical courses like Basic Magic Theory and History of Magic are even simpler and more crude!
While Professor Binns was reading from the textbook as usual, the tablet had magically turned those boring words into thrilling animations! Whether it was the detailed scenery or the exquisite painting style. This was simply magic! Professor Xin shook his head and said, this is not magic! This is just a technology called AI invented by Muggles! The children all thought, if you teach like this, then we won’t be sleepy!
There was only flying class, and no adjustments were made! Because Madam Hooch was surprised to find that the children’s control of the broom had improved more or less!
The reason for all this is actually very simple!
The boxing technique, which couldn’t be any slower, actually replaced meditation in disguise. Under the subconscious guidance of Professor Xin, the children learned to breathe without realizing it!
Therefore, regardless of whether they can inject magic power without the help of a wand, children are becoming more sensitive to magic! And this sensitivity to magic, in other words, is called magic affinity! And people who are born with magic affinity, in the popular words of the magic world, are the geniuses praised by people!
Of course, it is impossible for everyone to be a genius, but now, Professor Xin has really taught everyone how to quickly narrow the gap with geniuses through hard work!
Combined with the assistance of the teaching system, in the words of Professor Xin!
“Why thank me? This is a natural progression!”
In just the first month, everyone’s magic level has improved visibly!
Apart from……
“This is the rhythm of everyone becoming academic masters!”
Xiaopo sighed, because it seemed that he was the only one who was still standing still!
Because when Xiaopo cast the spell again, he found that his body was still covered with that strange darkness and orange-red!
What’s going on? Hasn’t it been stripped off?
“What are you afraid of?” Professor Xin, who was auditing the course, asked, seeing Xiaopo’s timid look.
“I’m afraid of losing control again.” Xiaopo did not hide anything from Professor Xin, even though there were other students around.
“Then tear it up again!” Professor Xin responded domineeringly: “You were able to do it last time when it was just me! Just think about how many people are willing to believe you now!”
“That’s right! Feel free to use your magic!” The Gryffindors next to him encouraged Little Po!
Then, Xiaopo smiled foolishly and blew away the dummy used for practice…
“It seems that you need more practice, little classmate.” Professor Flitwick opened the tablet and said in a shrill voice: “Look at the technical analysis. During the period when you were concentrating your magic power, the magic fluctuation exceeded the threshold. It is natural for such chaotic magic to explode. I have to say that Muggle things are sometimes very useful.”
“But we can’t rely entirely on these aids!” Professor Xin continued Professor Flitwick’s words.
“Of course!” Professor Flitwick said, “When you actually need to use magic, there will be no auxiliary parameters. At that time, you still need to use your own understanding and control of magic to achieve the desired effect. Therefore, more practice is important. But it cannot be denied that these aids can indeed help you get started quickly. So, don’t worry, Xiaopo, follow the correct method and try a few more times…”
Professor Flitwick suddenly stopped and looked at the tablet in surprise: “This thing can also provide corresponding solutions for different spellcasters?!”
Professor Xin looked at the tablet and scratched his head. “A new function, I guess. I’m not too sure. I heard that the AI ​​over there is constantly iterating.”
“This is so convenient,” Professor Flitwick said, fiddling with the tablet with great interest!
Xiaopo looked at the suggestions on the tablet, adjusted his movements, and finally successfully completed his study before the get out of class was about to end.
“The Muggle who invented this thing is simply a genius!” Xiaopo shouted excitedly.
“It has to be approved by Hogwarts. It’s just a trial version now. Otherwise, it will just be a pile of scrap metal…” Professor Xin rubbed the little boy’s head and said, “Let’s go.”
“Where are you going? Aren’t you going to the auditorium to eat?” Xiaopo asked while organizing his books and tablet.
“No! I’m not used to Western food~” Professor Xin shook his hand and walked away.
“Rice and cooking?” Xiaopo muttered, drooling uncontrollably, “I must find a way to get a bottle of wine! Even if it’s just for a free meal! Bah! To thank Professor Xin!”
Chapter 29 Goodbye! (Old version)
It’s another weekend. Because everyone was busy in the first month, the DA didn’t get together again until this week. Professor Xin was understanding and agreed to our request to borrow the classroom.
This time, I didn’t go with CG, but went to find Hermione first! I hope Hermione can help me order a bottle of wine as a thank you gift to thank Professor Xin.
Hermione naturally agreed with a smile.
But he still reminded Xiaopo: “I know you all like Professor Xin very much, and you are very grateful for Professor Xin’s help, but Professor Xin’s identity is actually not simple.”
“I know!” Xiaopo answered with a silly smile.
This surprised Hermione.
“You know?” Hermione frowned slightly.
“Of course, she was originally my caretaker!” Xiao Po continued with a smile: “But what does it matter? She has saved me twice, no, three times, no. Once on the train and once in the Defense Against the Dark Arts class. Oh, why do I always feel like there is one more time… Never mind. So, I am willing to believe her.”
Hermione smiled and shook her head. After thinking for a while, she didn’t continue speaking: “That’s good. If you have any questions, feel free to come to me~”
“Sure!” Xiaopo smiled and got up from his seat: “I’ll leave the wine to you.”
“It won’t happen again!” Hermione said seriously.
“Yeah!” Xiao Po came to the corridor with a silly smile and ran excitedly towards the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom!
“You’re late!”
When Xiaopo arrived at the classroom, everyone else was already there. Selena pointed at Xiaopo and lectured him seriously.
“Sorry sorry!”
Xiaopo nodded and was pulled by Albus to sit next to him.
“Ignore her! She’s a little bit abnormal today…”
“Albus! Do you dare to say that again louder?!” Selena roared angrily, clenching her hands into fists.
Albus turned his head away, indicating I dare, but I just won’t tell it!
Selena continued to babble angrily.
Xiaopo has come close to Albus: “What’s wrong with her today?”
Albus smiled wickedly and glanced diagonally above the small platform on the second floor of the classroom: “There are new people today.”
Following Albus’s gaze, Xiaopo saw the lazy Professor Xin, who was lying on the armrest, holding a wine jug and blowing bubbles with his mouth out of boredom.
A crisp sound!
Bubbles pop!
It’s not just the bubbles that burst!
“Can you act like a normal professor?!” Selena almost roared!
“I don’t want to come…” Professor Xin raised his head helplessly and fiddled with his fake Galleon: “But I’m also a DA, so…”
“Then get down and sit down! Or get out!” Selena put one hand on her waist and pointed at Professor Xin with the other.
“Why do they start fighting as soon as they meet?” Little Po whispered in Albus’ ear.
“Women… are normal!” Albus said quietly.
“Albus! I’m warning you!” Selena actually heard it again!
Albus sat down seriously: “Misunderstanding, I didn’t say anything~ If you don’t believe me, ask Xiaopo!”
Selena glared at Xiaopo instantly!
Xiaopo quickly smiled and nodded: “Yeah, we didn’t say anything.”
Scorpius was laughing secretly on the side. Why did he feel that the atmosphere in DA was becoming more and more informal?
“Let’s get down to business…” CG looked at Selena and defended Xiaopo!
Selena then gave Professor Xin a helpless look and reluctantly returned to the topic!
“Let’s get down to business!”
Selena sorted out her emotions. It seemed, as if, maybe, she had failed…
The palm fell heavily on the podium!
“Come on, CG!” Selena returned to her seat helplessly.
CG looked at Selena, then looked at Professor Xin who was still blowing bubbles, and shook his head helplessly.
He stood up and walked to the stage, and said something that made Professor Xin stand up instantly!
“Today, we continue to learn martial arts! Tai Chi!”
“Why is it Tai Chi again! We have all learned it!” Albus complained.
“no the same.”
CG said calmly, and with a wave of his hand, a large space in the classroom was cleared!
Then, it was indeed different!
The Tai Chi performed by CG is similar to what we learned in class, but it is definitely different!
Subconsciously, the DAs looked at Professor Xin.
Professor Xin did become more serious, looking at it very attentively, and stopped blowing bubbles, but he did not give everyone an answer.
He waited quietly until the CG was finished, then asked rapidly, “Where did you learn the ancient Tai Chi? Do you know those old monsters? Should I call you Junior Uncle? But even if you are the elder, I have to say, do those old monsters agree to let you teach them the real things?”
CG looked at Professor Xin, with his hands behind his back, “Would you like to come down and salute?”
“Ha ha ha ha!”
Professor Xin laughed loudly, picked up the wine bottle and took a sip. Just when everyone thought that Professor Xin would turn over and fight with CG, Professor Xin put down the wine bottle with satisfaction and then clasped his fists…
“goodbye!”
Then he left from the classroom door on the second floor…
“This…” Trod muttered.
“What’s going on?” Albus suddenly became interested~
The others also watched everything in amazement.
Is this a tactical retreat? Is this a retreat? Is this a retreat? Is this a retreat?
Fortunately, there are CGs in DA…
“What Professor Xin taught is the basic skills, which are more for you to feel the flow of magic. And my set is something that can really save your life.” CG explained while stopping Jaina who took out a tablet to analyze the movements: “These cannot be passed on to others. I always have a bad feeling recently… If everyone really encounters a situation where they have to fight for their lives in the future, I hope that among those who survive by their own skills, there are all of you.”
CG finished speaking quietly, and no one responded for a while. Suddenly, it felt heavy. Even the silly smile on Xiaopo’s face was a little stiff.
“What’s going on?” Lily asked cautiously.
CG shook his head: “I can’t really explain it, but I have a feeling that something is going to happen.”
“Are you talking about the refined beast that attacked us?” Selena frowned, “Or something else?”
CG shook his head again.
“Well,” Lily raised her hand again: “My mother said that if I continue to learn martial arts, she also wants to learn. So this set of Tai Chi, is it still possible…”
“Of course.” CG raised his head and said affirmatively.
“I knew it!” Lily smiled with satisfaction and threw away the Floo powder in her hand!
Ginny’s image appeared, and he sat down next to Ginny with a smile: “Long time no see, how are you all?”
But the atmosphere is still weird…
“What’s wrong?” Ginny looked at Lily beside her in confusion.
Lily whispered something!
“That’s it?” Ginny stood up and came to CG’s side: “You are worried about us getting into trouble, but you can’t tell me why, right?”
CG nodded!
“Then teach us this set of martial arts now!” Ginny patted CG’s shoulder: “How does the saying go? When an enemy comes, we will fight him with our generals; when a flood comes, we will block it with earth! Don’t forget that you are DA! The road of DA is always full of difficulties and obstacles!”
“You are right! Come on, I will give you detailed instructions today.”
CG answered expressionlessly. But everyone could see that Ginny’s encouragement had no effect, and CG’s worries had not diminished.
A dark cloud seemed to be forming, but I didn’t know where it was hovering…
Chapter 30: The Blue Outside the Forbidden Forest (Old Version)
Xiaopo found this gathering particularly difficult. Even after finishing the study, no one really listened to Ginny’s advice.
But finally everyone agreed to continue the morning exercises from last semester.
Selena told everyone some unpleasant things again, such as playing the devil’s advocate. Although Selena retained absolute control, a large portion of the shares had indeed been sold to a certain consortium.
For example, the Ministry of Magic recently reorganized the Inspectorate, and now the Inspectorate has recovered its combat effectiveness before the incident.
For example, the organization’s influence in the world is beginning to decline, and the island countries have failed to mediate in the Middle East. According to reliable sources, there will be more troubles in the future.
“All they can do now is try their best to appease the magical creatures on the seabed and prevent them from retaliating against humans.” Selena sighed.
“So, those earthquakes were really caused by…” Xiaopo opened his mouth in surprise.
“Not all of them,” Selena shook her head, “but if those sea creatures decide to retaliate, it will not just be those small islands that will sink…”
“If you guys talk about this!”
With a bang, the door of the second-floor classroom was opened again, and Professor Xin walked in drunk!
“I’m not leaving!”
“Why did you come back?” Selena gave Professor Xin a cold look.
Professor Xin held the wine flask towards Selena: “Want a drink?”
Selena pushed it away!
“Hahahaha!” Professor Xin laughed heartily.
Xiaopo always felt that as soon as Professor Xin arrived, both the atmosphere and everyone’s expressions changed.
Albus and Trod were laughing secretly, and even Winice covered her mouth.
What’s going on with this inexplicable trust?
How long has it been since I got on the train?
It’s outrageous!
Professor Xin looked at CG indifferently, clasped his hands together and bowed: “Uncle Junior Master?”
CG obviously hadn’t adapted to the situation, and after a moment’s pause, he saluted back: “Professor Xin, there’s no need to do this.”
“Hahaha~” Professor Xin took another sip of wine and said, “Can I have a word with you for a moment?”
Before CG could agree, Selena spoke up first: “Is there anything you can’t say in front of us?”
“You want to listen too?” Professor Xin lifted her hair and looked at Selena.
“No one would listen to that!” Selena rolled her eyes at Professor Xin. “I’m worried about CG following you alone, right?”
“Are you worried about him?” Professor Xin pointed at CG exaggeratedly.
Then, the scene suddenly became a little awkward!
Everyone understood what Professor Xin meant, and laughter suddenly broke out in the classroom…
“Hahahaha!” Albus covered his stomach and raised his hands: “Sorry, sorry, I really couldn’t help it!”
“I’m going to fight you!” Selena took out her wand!
Xiaopo quickly stopped Selena: “Calm down, calm down! We can’t beat him! When we can beat him, we will help you together!”
“Yeah, sure!” Albus laughed and cheered.
Selena rolled her eyes at Albus, crossed her arms over her chest, and sat aside angrily.
“Where are we going?” CG continued to speak on his own, ignoring the noise of the crowd.
Professor Xin, who was looking at Selena with pride, turned around and asked: “How is the cabin I live in now?”
“Okay!” CG nodded and walked out the door first.
Professor Xin turned his head and glanced at Selena: “How about, together?”
“Get out!” Selena cursed angrily!
“Okay~” Professor Xin was not angry at all. He cooperated and walked out of the door carrying the wine jug.
After the two left, Selena slammed the table!
Everyone was stunned!
“Let’s go too!”
Although everyone is willing to believe Professor Xin, no one wants to mess with Selena now.
Reluctantly, everyone crept closer to the hut.
Smoke was wafting from the chimney of the hut, and the Forbidden Forest next to it was still quiet and dark. The children found their own spots and hid around the hut. Hagrid’s hut was outside the Forbidden Forest, and while looking at the hut, it was inevitable that they would look in the direction of the Forbidden Forest a few more times.
For a moment, the children couldn’t help but think of the great battle a few months ago!
“It’s so vivid~” Albus leaned against the stone, sighing.
“Yeah!” Scorpius leaned over!
A stone was thrown over, and Selena was glaring at the two of them: “Quiet! Be serious!”
Albus straightened himself helplessly and put on a serious look.
However, at this moment…
Winice slowly stood up, pushed up her glasses, and tried to look deep into the forbidden forest as if she was possessed!
Jaina and Lily pulled Winnies, who was in a trance, aside, and Winnies’ expression had slowly changed from surprise to fear!
If they still can’t find something wrong, then they are not the DA! The children quickly followed Winice’s gaze!
“ah!”
With a scream, Winice subconsciously covered her mouth!
Realizing the seriousness of the situation, the DAs drew their wands at the same time and rushed forward without hesitation!
Yes! Something happened! Something big happened!
In the dim forbidden forest, there was a faint blue flash, and next to the faint blue ice flame, a bearded man suddenly appeared at the edge of the forbidden forest!
“Albus, Scorpius, watch out!”
“Xiaopo, don’t rush forward so far!”
“Trod, cover!”
“Jaina, Lily, pay attention to your position and wait for the boys to take their seats first!”
“Winis, signal the professors!”
Selena directed quickly!
at the same time!
The door of the hut was pushed open violently!
Professor Xin and CG stood in front of everyone with lightning and thunder!
After exchanging glances, CG leapt up and chased deeper into the cave!
Xiaopo was about to follow, but was stopped by Professor Xin!
“Why are you stopping us?!” Selena, who caught up, yelled angrily.
“Use your brain! There is something wrong here!” Professor Xin spoke at the fastest speed, and then glanced in the direction of the forbidden forest with his peripheral vision!
Waves of magic flickered in the forbidden forest, and the roar of explosions began to be heard from afar!
CG has already fought with the bearded man? But how come they are already so far away?
Professor Xin couldn’t help but frown!
“Let’s talk about it later if you have any questions!” Albus pushed Professor Xin’s arm away with all his strength: “Let us pass!”
“Professor!” Xiaopo also shouted.
“Shut up!”
A loud shout stopped everyone!
The one who shouted this was not Professor Xin, but Selena, who stopped and frowned!
Selena calmed down and looked gloomy. She glanced around and said, “The professor is right. There is something wrong here! That hint of blue seems to be deliberately letting us discover it!”
“So he is…” Scorpius looked at Xiaopo subconsciously.
“He’s finally here! He still won’t let me go!”
Xiaopo looked at the ground, and black and red magic instantly ignited on his shoulders.
At this moment, on the battlefield in the distance, a black shadow rose into the sky, and the roar of a dragon resounded through the heaven and earth. A five-clawed golden dragon, covered in flames and lightning, opened its huge mouth and chased after it!
Dark clouds gathered and covered the black shadow and the golden dragon. Suddenly, thunder rumbled and lightning flashed.
Although no one could see clearly what was happening inside, everyone could feel the strong magical fluctuations inside!
“Scorpius! Let’s go!” Albus didn’t want to wait any longer and shouted immediately!
Xiaopo grabbed Albus and said, “I’m going too!”
Albus nodded excitedly and shouted, “DA!”
The others subconsciously agreed, but Selena pulled Clint and Albus over at this moment and stopped the others with her eyes!
“We!” Selena looked at the dark clouds unwillingly and said, “Retreat!”
Chapter 31 I need an explanation! (Old version)
“What?” Albus looked at Selena in disbelief and broke free of Selena’s hand: “If you want to leave, go! That man tortured Lily and hurt my mother. Now he shows up, and you tell me to retreat? Impossible! Scorpius, we…”
“Enough!” Selena shouted, “The bearded man showed us this to lure us over! Do you know what’s hidden in the Forbidden Forest?”
“Are you just going to watch him run away? CG has already fought him!” Albus shouted, not wanting to be outdone: “Girls stay, boys! Those who are willing to go, follow me!”
“You’re so brave!” Seeing the golden dragon, Professor Xin seemed to calm down. She tied her hair back in a hurry, patted Albus on the shoulder, and then looked at Xiaopo: “What do you say?”
Xiaopo looked at the dark cloud, then at the others, and patted Selena’s shoulder comfortingly: “We can’t avoid it, and we can’t let CG take risks alone. Since he has come to us, let him see our progress!”
Xiaopo said calmly, and when he turned around, his eyes were already as firm as iron.
“Good job!” Albus looked at Little Po with satisfaction!
“Have you thought about it?” Professor Xin asked for the last time: “I heard that the one he wanted to catch was you.”
Xiaopo nodded calmly!
“Why do you boys always act like this? There are obviously better ways!” Selena scolded, glaring at Clint and Albus.
Winice pulled Selena’s robe and shook it. Lily and Jaina stood nearby and looked over with a smile.
Selena sighed helplessly, holding her wand tightly in her hand, and glared at Albus: “If you dare to implicate us again, I will kill you! Okay, I will take charge!”
“Alright,” Professor Xin smiled, lightning flashing in his hands, “DA is good, but I’ll do the fighting.”
“Stay aside!” Selena glared at Professor Xin. “DA, you have to follow orders! Professor Xin will lead the way, Jaina and Trod will follow the rear, Winice will follow me, Albus and Scorpius will watch the two sides, and Little Po will be in the center. If there is any problem, he will be there to respond at any time! Do you understand? DA!”
“rush!”
Amid the roars that reached the sky, the children’s momentum reached its peak!
Professor Xin smiled with satisfaction, picked up the wine jug and took a big gulp!
Then he rushed out like flying!
In the surprised eyes of everyone, he disappeared on the spot!
Yes, you are the pioneer, but this! This is too fast!
What about the formation? What about the coordination?
We agreed to act as a team!
“This crazy woman!!!” Selena gritted her teeth and cursed word by word!
But at this moment! Everyone was surprised to find that Professor Xin had appeared under the thundercloud!
What a speed!
Isn’t it said that you can’t Apparate in Hogwarts?
Just when everyone didn’t know whether to be surprised or angry!
Professor Xin’s blazing white flame has rolled towards the dark clouds!
Professor Xin’s figure was as fast as lightning. No, as fast as lightning was not enough to describe Professor Xin’s speed at this moment. He was basically teleporting!
The children were surprised to find that Professor Xin could change positions at will in the air!
This is outrageous!
Has the basic common sense of magic been ruthlessly broken?! This is not scientific at all! It is not magic!
But one thing is that the speed is so fast that children’s eyes can hardly keep up!
What on earth is Professor Xin hiding from? !
Or, what are you chasing?
There were bursts of fire, and then loud roars were heard!
Professor Xin is wandering around, where are CG and the bearded man?
A pure white holy light suddenly flashed in the dark clouds!
A black shadow rushed down! Layers of ice blue continued to appear behind the black shadow, blocking the holy white magic that was chasing after it!
The dark clouds dispersed and the golden dragon was gone!
Countless ice crystals scattered, and the sky was suddenly filled with fog!
The flames surged!
Go straight behind the dark shadow!
Professor Xin has arrived!
Two balls of black mist suddenly appeared out of nowhere, entangled with the fire that was said to be able to burn everything!
A dull sound of landing came from a distance!
The children only felt a tremor under their feet!
Huge icicles rose from the ground, and countless icicles washed the earth like a torrential rain!
Is this the strength of the bearded man? When did his magic become so powerful!
“Don’t just stand there! Let’s go!” Selena shouted loudly!
Albus then realized that now was definitely not the time to watch the show!
“That’s right, help!” Albus shouted and rushed out first!
A figure rushed out of the Forbidden Forest!
“CG!” Xiaopo recognized it at the first sight!
CG didn’t have time to answer and pulled Albus who was rushing in front!
He pushed Scorpius and Trod, stopped Xiaopo, took Selena, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of the remaining three girls!
“Get down!” CG shouted, opening his arms to protect everyone!
The holy wings spread out, and in the holy white light, a huge mushroom cloud rose into the sky in the distance!
The roar shook the earth, and the red sun burned all the dust.
The dazzling white light faded away, leaving only a ruin…
That poor ice magic has long since disappeared, but fortunately, there are mountains over there, fortunately, the forbidden forest blocked most of the impact, and fortunately, there is also the holy light guarding!
CG removes the magic!
The ground still seemed to be shaking.
Teams of horsemen rushed over from the depths of the Forbidden Forest in fear. When they saw the crowd, they pulled their bowstrings without saying a word!
“We, the centaurs, need an explanation!” The leading centaur shouted angrily!
The Forbidden Forest, that was their home! Even though it was only affected! But under such powerful magic, they still suffered heavy losses!
A majestic rebuke came from outside the Forbidden Forest! Hermione came to the children first and protected everyone behind her!
Professor McGonagall and other professors hurried over, holding their wands in front of them: “Stop! We will explain to you, but you are not allowed to point bows and arrows at students like this!”
“Human!” The centaurs stomped the ground angrily. How dare a mere human point a wand at a noble centaur! No one could do that, not even the headmaster of Hogwarts!
“Ask Bane to come out and talk!” said Professor McGonagall angrily.
“I’ve always been here!” Bane slowly walked out of the team without stopping other centaurs. He looked at Professor McGonagall with the same anger.
“Then you should control the centaurs! Have the centaurs forgotten basic manners after Hagrid left?” Professor McGonagall was still speaking angrily, but she had put away her wand.
Bain pressed down the hand of the centaur next to him who was drawing the bowstring, and said calmly, “We need an explanation!”
“I need an explanation too!”
An angry voice with a hint of alcohol came from deeper in the forbidden forest, and the owner of the voice appeared in front of everyone the next second!
Chapter 32: Chat? (Old version)
Looking at Professor Xin’s wounds, Xiaopo didn’t care whether it was appropriate to speak now, and shouted first: “Are you okay?”
Professor Xin smiled and glanced at Xiaopo, but did not answer. Instead, he looked at the centaurs with a sullen face.
“Are you Bane? Hagrid said the Forbidden Forest is yours?”
Professor Xin moved his wrist, and a strong murderous aura spread out. Xiaopo swallowed subconsciously.
In an instant, all the centaurs aimed their bows and arrows at
“What do you want?” Bane turned around fearlessly and looked at Professor Xin head on.
“No,” Professor Xin pinched his crackling joints, “I’m just curious. I clearly knocked that bearded guy so hard that he couldn’t move. How did he escape after he landed?!”
“What do you mean?” Bain’s voice became colder!
Professor Xin twisted his neck and said, “It’s very simple. I just want to know how many restrictions are hidden in the Forbidden Forest that allow the Inspector General to come and go freely! I also want to know who is helping the Inspector General to do evil things in my territory!”
“The Forbidden Forest has never been your territory!” Bain raised his voice and shouted. The sound of horse hooves behind him sounded like a war drum, neatly and powerfully!
“I advise you to answer well! Otherwise!” Professor Xin stopped moving his body and looked at Bain with a cold face: “I will kill you!”
“You dare!” Bain took a step forward!
“Please calm down!” A melodious voice came from the Forbidden Forest, the sound of horse hooves rang out, the white-gold color reflected the sunlight, and wise eyes looked at the field. Firenze said calmly: “Principal McGonagall, everyone! Please stay calm! Such a dispute is meaningless! In this situation, shouldn’t we solve the problem as soon as possible?”
However, this time, Professor McGonagall stood firmly next to Professor Xin!
“We are willing to talk, but on the premise that!” Professor McGonagall’s face became more severe: “How do you prove your loyalty?!”
“How dare you doubt the loyalty of the centaurs!” Bane looked at Professor McGonagall angrily: “Deception and betrayal have always belonged to humans!”
“Alright!” Firenze held Bain’s arm, sighed helplessly, and looked up at the sky: “Principal, if you look carefully at the sky, you will understand that even if there is someone in Hogwarts who is cooperating with the Scoundrels, that person will never be a centaur!”
Professor McGonagall seemed touched. She did not speak immediately, but looked at Firenze with a strange expression.
Firenze met Professor McGonagall’s gaze and said, “Professor, please believe that no matter what the centaurs do, they will always be loyal to Hogwarts!”
“Just like last semester?” Selena responded sarcastically.
Bane was visibly embarrassed, but Firenze was much calmer and walked slowly over to the children.
Professor Sheen pretended to have a fit, so Professor McGonagall raised her hand to indicate that everything was alright.
“I hope you have really heard the instructions of the stars, Professor Firenze.” Hermione stood in front of Firenze, emphasizing the word “professor”.
“Of course!” Firenze replied, taking two steps back helplessly. “This time, the centaurs suffered no less losses than you. So, if you don’t mind, let’s talk somewhere else. I hope we can resolve the misunderstanding.”
“No need.” Professor McGonagall stepped forward and looked at Firenze: “I am willing to believe you, but I don’t want the same thing to happen again, no matter what the reason!”
Firenze bowed and the centaurs slowly retreated into the forbidden forest.
Professor McGonagall did not continue to pester them. She looked at everyone and saw that only Professor Sheen seemed to be injured. She asked a few simple questions, arranged for Hermione to take care of the children, and then led the other professors to the castle.
“Hogwarts hasn’t been like this for many years. It’s a turbulent time…”
I don’t know which professor made this sigh, but it came from far away…
“Professor Xin?” After the others left, Hermione looked at Professor Xin with a smile: “Would it be convenient for me to come over and have a chat with you?”
“Why don’t we send these children back to the castle first?” Professor Xin untied the rubber band and fiddled with his hair.
“I think it doesn’t matter if it’s a little later.” Hermione smiled and rubbed the little boy’s head, looking at Selena intentionally or unintentionally: “Some things, even if you hide them from these children, they will know.”
“Well, let’s go~”
To be honest, Professor Shin’s hut was not actually that small, after all, Hagrid had originally lived here. But with so many people coming at once, the space seemed insufficient.
The children could only find a seat and sit or stand quietly by the side.
“What’s the matter? Tell me.” Professor Xin said after sitting in Hagrid’s large chair.
Hermione smiled, and poured a cup of hot tea for everyone. She pushed Professor Xin’s cup towards him, and then she said, “In fact, Headmaster McGonagall was strongly opposed to your application to come here from the East to teach at the beginning.”
“I’m not interested in politics.” Professor Xin pushed the tea back, picked up the wine jug and took a sip.
“That’s why we agreed to this.” Hermione still kept smiling: “We also want to see the Chinese teaching methods and the advantages of inclusiveness. To be honest, the progress of these children has surprised us.”
“If you have anything to say, just say it.” Professor Xin frowned, as if he hated chatting like this.
Hermione still maintained her original rhythm, took a sip of tea, and gently put the cup back to its original position: “Actually, I just want to thank you. In the torrent of world progress, we are indeed being gradually eliminated. Tablets, Country Y also has them. But the technologies in those tablets you gave to everyone, artificial intelligence, life technology, carbon-based materials, new energy. The United States has them, China has them, but we don’t, even if we look at the whole of Europe, we don’t have them. The total volume continues to decline, traditional advantages are no longer maintained, and innovative technologies are left behind. These are not just problems for Muggles, the wizarding world is also responsible…”
“How about I give you the phone number of the person in charge of this matter over there so you can talk first?” Professor Xin took out his tablet and skillfully opened the game.
Hermione smiled and said, “Professor Xin, did you handle both of Scoobing’s uninvited visits?”
“Didn’t I send you a message?” Professor Xin rubbed his head.
Hermione drank her tea and shook her head gently, not sure if she was blowing away the hot steam in the cup or expressing denial.
Look, this is what a professor should be like!
“Sorry, I forgot. But you should already know what’s going on.” Professor Xin silently opened the game.
“Yes,” Hermione put down her teacup and looked at Professor Shin, “but both times, Scoob escaped.”
“Damn it!” Professor Shin slammed his fist on the table. “I get angry when I mention this! He will definitely not get away next time. Isn’t he from the Inspectorate? What’s going on? Did the Ministry of Magic and Hogwarts fall out?”
After hearing this, the children, who were already bored, became serious and put away their tablets one by one.
Hermione smiled and shook her head: “Not yet.”
“Temporarily?” Professor Xin narrowed his eyes.
“For the time being!” Hermione repeated without any concern, “Because we can’t be sure whether Scoobing is still a member of the Inspectorate! No one knows whether he has really not returned to the Ministry of Magic. What if the action against the organization was really a collaboration between the Inspectorate and Zhongshan suits?”
“Absolutely impossible!” Professor Xin put the tablet aside and said firmly.
“If you know any inside information…” Hermione finally got to the point!
Chapter 33 Professor Trelawney (Old Edition)
“What can I know? I really don’t care about politics…” Professor Xin shook his head helplessly.
“Okay,” Hermione sighed, looked at the children, and then looked at Professor Xin: “Then let’s talk about what happened today. Your world-destroying spell is not just magic, right?”
When the children heard this, they couldn’t help but look at Professor Xin.
Professor Xin shook his head and said, “I know what you want to say. Don’t worry, I don’t even bother to use Muggle weapons. As for the power, you know that our Chinese magic relies on the perception of the surrounding magic. In that situation, ice, fire, lightning, holy light, and darkness, all kinds of magic were almost gathered. To be honest, it would be strange if it didn’t cause an explosion of that power.”
“Magic has different attributes?” Jaina asked with some confusion.
“You will learn it in your seventh year.” Hermione replied with a smile, and then looked at Professor Xin: “I believe in you, so I hope you can also believe in Hogwarts.”
“Don’t worry,” Professor Xin looked at Xiaopo helplessly, as if to say, is Hermione like this usually?
Hermione raised her hand: “Please listen to me, there must be something wrong with the centaurs’ actions today!”
When Hermione said this, everyone except Selena looked at her in surprise.
Professor Xin nodded helplessly: “I know.”
This time it was Hermione’s turn to be surprised!
“You know?”
“Of course!” Professor Xin said as he opened the tablet and clicked quickly. Then, a hologram of a piece of information appeared in front of everyone!
“Firenze!” Professor Xin pointed at the screen and said, “After becoming a professor in 1995, he was expelled from the centaur tribe. Although Professor Dumbledore, Professor McGonagall and Professor Hagrid have tried to mediate the conflict between him and other centaurs, they all ended in failure. But last year! He was accepted by the centaurs again! Am I right?”
Hermione drank her tea calmly and motioned for Professor Xin to continue!
“Given last year’s intelligence,” Professor Xin clicked on the detailed analysis and suddenly became serious, “Now that he can still appear among the centaurs like this, it can only mean that the centaurs are facing a huge crisis! Just like the Battle of Hogwarts that year and last year! There is reason to believe that the stars gave the centaurs some kind of revelation and made them make a choice. As for what the choice is, there is no way to know. But no matter what it is, one thing is certain, Hogwarts is not safe now!”
The children gasped and looked at Hermione.
Hermione smiled and nodded, as if she had thought of everything long ago: “You are right.”
“Right?” Albus shouted anxiously, “Then Professor McGonagall just now…”
Selena glared at Albus and motioned for him to be quiet.
Albus closed his mouth in dissatisfaction.
Hermione sighed. “The loyalty of centaurs is beyond doubt, but the way they practice loyalty is sometimes unexpected. So, I’m telling you this today. Actually…”
“Don’t worry,” Professor Xin waved his hand impatiently, and took out the fake Galleon intentionally or unintentionally, fiddling with it in his hand: “Even if you don’t tell me, I will protect these children. They are good!”
“Thank you.” Hermione stood up with satisfaction and walked towards the door. As if she suddenly thought of something, she turned around and added, “Oh, by the way, this has nothing to do with politics, right?”
“Of course!” Professor Xin answered decisively.
Hermione nodded in satisfaction and looked at the children: “Come on, I’ll take you back to the castle.”
The children digested the conversation between the two and walked out of the cabin stiffly one by one.
Looking at one child after another looking dazed.
Professor Xin sighed helplessly: “What a hassle!”
The children who had already walked out the door turned around and looked at Professor Xin.
Professor Xin had already brought out a grill from somewhere, raised his head and asked, “Who wants to eat barbecue?”
The children subconsciously looked at Hermione. Hermione smiled and shook her head, then walked towards the castle alone…
Amid the cheers, it seemed that all the haze was swept away!
Standing in front of the window of the headmaster’s office, Professor McGonagall and Hermione looked at Professor Sheen and the children playing beside the cottage, and a smile finally appeared on their gloomy faces.
“It’s great to be young…” Professor McGonagall sighed.
Hermione smiled and nodded: “You are still young too.”
Professor McGonagall turned around with a smile, her cheeks slightly red, and sighed: “How was the talk with Professor Xin?”
“Not very good.” Hermione shook her head: “She seems to be here just to impart knowledge. She is unwilling to say more.”
“That’s normal,” Professor McGonagall sat back in her chair and placed her palms on the tablet. “At least, she brought gifts from the East.”
“Yeah.” Hermione was still looking out the window.
“There’s no need to be too anxious. This has taken us a long time to digest. We should still have some time, right?” Professor McGonagall said unconfidently.
“I hope so,” Hermione replied perfunctorily.
“If it’s possible, Kingsley might…” Professor McGonagall said tentatively, “After all, his original intention was good.”
Hermione turned around and looked at Professor McGonagall very seriously: “I understand what you mean, and you know my attitude. But Kingsley is no longer a member of the original Order of the Phoenix. What he thinks now is different from what we do…”
Professor McGonagall looked helpless, took off her glasses, and looked at Hermione: “Are you ready to step forward?”
“Not really,” Hermione shook her head, then smiled, “But someone has to go first, don’t you think?”
Sighing, Professor McGonagall subconsciously looked at the photo frame of Professor Dumbledore.
“Just go ahead and do it, Minerva.” Dumbledore smiled and looked down: “Hogwarts should do the right thing.”
In other photo frames, former principals agreed and echoed.
Professor McGonagall seemed to have finally made up her mind. She stood up and walked to Hermione: “If that day really comes, Hogwarts will make the right choice.”
Hermione smiled and nodded: “Thank you, Professor~”
Although the matter has come to an end, there must always be a result.
The next day, the professors searched the surrounding area in detail, but found nothing. Although they were not very willing to do so, they had no choice but to let the matter go.
The DAs resumed their morning exercises. Professor Xin originally wanted to refuse, but under Selena’s strict request, he reluctantly followed them.
Professor Xin felt very sad. He hadn’t had to do morning exercises for hundreds of years, but now he had to do it after becoming a professor!
What a bad idea…
Quiet days always pass quickly. After everything was back on track, everyone gradually forgot about the farce in the forbidden forest.
It’s just that CG’s frown from time to time reminds everyone that his ominous premonition is always there.
“How about asking Professor Trelawney?” Winice suggested at a party.
CG just smiled and shook his head.
If possible, CG would rather go to Firenze’s Starry Sky Classroom, but after that incident, it might not be appropriate to go there again!
Let’s just forget it…
“I think we should ask!” Xiaopo said seriously, “Although Professor Trelawney’s performance in the novel is not good. But have any of you noticed that every prediction of Professor Trelawney actually came true.”
“Really?” Jaina asked back without comment.
“real!”
Chapter 34: A Different Trelawney (Old Edition)
“Really!” Xiaopo nodded, and then added: “If I remember correctly.”
“Then why didn’t you ask about your prophecy, Lord Dark Lord?” Albus obviously didn’t believe it and patted Little Bro’s shoulder teasingly.
“I do want to go!” Xiao Po said seriously, “But every time I meet Professor Trelawney in the corridor, she seems to be frightened and runs away in a hurry. So, I think I’d rather give up. What if I really go to find her, and she backs away while screaming and throwing things at me? Oh, that scene…”
“You have such a rich imagination, why don’t you write a novel? If her predictions were really that powerful, she wouldn’t have met you at all!” Selena rolled her eyes unhappily, looking at Professor Xin who was lying next to her playing with a tablet with dissatisfaction: “Okay, let’s go if there’s nothing else.”
“Go on your way~” Albus looked at Selena with a wicked smile!
“Tsk!” Selena raised her head proudly: “Winis, let’s go to the auditorium!”
Winice moved helplessly and followed Selena out of the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom…
“Actually, it’s better to go ask.” Scorpius said, “After all, it’s useless to ask other professors about things like hunches.”
Trod nodded, and in a moment of distraction, the tablet screen turned gray.
“Can you please be serious!” Albus yelled, “Scorpius, hurry up, save me!”
Three seconds later!
Professor Xin put down the tablet proudly and said, “You three are too weak! One against three! Are you afraid?”
“Tsk~”
Albus rolled his eyes in annoyance, put away the tablet, and walked out amid Professor Xin’s hearty laughter.
That afternoon, CG climbed up to Professor Trelawney’s unique divination classroom~
A half-finished cup of tea was placed beside her, a thick book was spread out on her lap, and Professor Trelawney was leaning back in her chair, closing her eyes and enjoying the afternoon sun…
Is this sleeping?
CG hesitated whether to leave first.
“Sit down, child~” Professor Trelawney’s lazy voice came from behind.
CG turned around and looked at Professor Trelawney, and said awkwardly: “Professor, actually I…”
“Sit down~” Professor Trelawney smiled and interrupted CG.
CG found a seat and sat down. He took the steaming cup of tea handed to him by Professor Trelawney and was a little at a loss as to where to start.
“You are hesitating~” Professor Trelawney sat back in her chair, drank the tea in her cup, turned the cup upside down on the tray, and slowly said: “Are you wondering how I knew? Did I really know you were coming, or did I just happen to stay here? Are you wondering if I am the same as the rumors say, or do I really have some skills? Child, you have taken my class, you should have your own judgment.”
CG was stunned for a moment to confirm that his brain blocking technique had not failed, and looked at Professor Trelawney in surprise!
That’s right, Professor Trelawney guessed everything right!
The reason why CG didn’t go to the staff lounge was actually to give it a try. If Professor Trelawney really had the ability to see into the future and was willing to see him, then even if he came to the Divination classroom on a weekend afternoon, he would definitely meet her!
But if this is true, then how do we explain Professor Trelawney’s behavior in class?
“You look a little different today than you did in class…” CG chose his words carefully.
Professor Trelawney smiled but did not speak. Instead, she picked up the upside-down teacup and looked at the tea leaves on the tray. As she looked, although she still kept smiling, a hint of gloom flashed across her face.
Sighing, Professor Trelawney cleaned up the tea leaves and spoke slowly, “I’m sorry, but your hunch is very likely correct.”
“Do you know what I want to ask?” CG looked at Trelawney in surprise.
“I shouldn’t have passed your exam. It seems that you haven’t mastered the essence of Divination.” Professor Trelawney raised her head with a smile: “But then again, who can really master it?”
“So you’ve been pretending all this time?” CG looked at Professor Trelawney warily. If that was true, how much did she know?
“What is true and what is false?” Professor Trelawney said in a mysterious way: “I want to say that I am pretending now~Does it matter?”
CG was silent, and suddenly realized that he shouldn’t have come here today!
People who carry secrets should not come to see someone who actually has the power of prophecy!
“Don’t worry, child. I am not very talented, at least not as talented as my great-grandmother. So I can’t see much~” Professor Trelawney crossed her hands and placed them on her legs: “If you really want to leave, the door is over there. But I still suggest you stay for a while, at least finish that cup of tea, read the revelation, and then leave.”
CG nodded, picked up the cup, and drank the tea according to the steps he had learned in class.
Then I turned the cup…
“Flame,” CG muttered the shape of the bottom of the teacup, raised his head, and looked at Professor Trelawney: “What does it mean?”
Professor Trelawney shook her head. “What do the flowers indicate?”
CG rotates the teacup, and from a certain angle, it does look like a flower!
But what does this mean?
I came here to solve my doubts, but now not only is there no help at all, my doubts are increasing.
“Don’t worry, kid.”
Professor Trelawney seemed to see what CG was thinking. She came over, took a delicate spoon, and tapped it gently on CG’s teacup.
A clear and soulful voice rang out from the teacup and then faded away…
Professor Trelawney looked at the teacup. The tea leaves inside seemed to be still changing. Professor Trelawney sighed and said, “Sure enough, I shouldn’t have peeped into your future.”
CG also looked into the cup. The scattered tea leaves now seemed to have no shape at all.
“Chaos?” CG raised his head and looked at Professor Trelawney.
Shaking her head, Professor Trelawney took a seat across from CG: “Chaos does not mean unknown, child.”
“If you really see anything, please tell me.” CG said seriously.
Professor Trelawney looked back at the teacup: “Have you made up your mind?”
“Please stop saying such ambiguous things! I’m worried about other things! If this is all you can tell me…” CG frowned and became a little impatient.
Professor Trelawney calmly stood up, sat back in her chair, and pointed to the door: “Go ahead, CG~”
“I’m sorry, Professor.” CG sighed, but didn’t leave: “I hope to get answers.”
“I accept your apology, child.” Professor Trelawney said softly, waving her hand, and the CG teacup floated to Professor Trelawney’s lap: “But I want to know, if the thing you are worried about is destined to happen, what will you do?”
CG thought for a few seconds, then said seriously: “Even if it is destined, I will try my best.”
“That’s right, kid.” Professor Trelawney put down her teacup. “Then what are you worried about?”
CG said nothing, waiting quietly for Professor Trelawney to continue.
Looking at CG’s determined eyes, Professor Trelawney shook her head and suddenly laughed, seeming to return to her classroom self: “You really believe it? If I don’t, how can I keep this job? Professor McGonagall has never believed in divination. Not many of you can really learn divination. I can only act a little mysterious, don’t take it seriously.”
“You!” CG looked at Professor Trelawney in front of him in surprise.
In this mysterious look, which one is real and which one is fake?
Shaking his head helplessly, CG finally decided to leave. What was wrong with him that he actually came here…
CG stood up and walked towards the door. Professor Trelawney smiled and did not stop him.
A lonely look flashed in Professor Trelawney’s eyes.
At this moment, the door of the classroom was suddenly opened from the outside! A familiar voice came from CG!
“I don’t think so!”
Chapter 35 I’ve already said it’s divination, why do you have to say it? (Old version)
Professor Xin came in with a tablet, but was followed by an embarrassed…
“Xiao Po? Professor Xin? What are you doing?” CG looked at the two people who pushed the door open in surprise and asked.
Professor Xin looked around, then pulled CG and Xiaopo to sit down together.
With a swipe of the finger, the analysis results on the tablet were clearly projected onto the field!
“If I’m not mistaken!”
Professor Xin handed the tablet to Xiaopo, lifted his hair, looked at the CG very seriously, and then looked at Professor Trelawney!
“Just based on the magic fluctuations just now! What just happened here is definitely a true prophecy!”
“What?” Xiaopo cried out in surprise.
CG also looked at Professor Trelawney in surprise!
Professor Trelawney shook her head, walked to the cabinet next to her, and took out two bottles of white wine that looked quite old.
One bottle was thrown to Professor Sheen, and the other bottle was opened silently by Professor Trelawney alone.
He raised it gently to signal, then tilted his head back and began to drink it up.
When he put it down again, half of the wine in the bottle had disappeared…
Professor Trelawney wiped the corners of her mouth, her face slightly flushed, and then she sat back in her chair, leaning back comfortably, looking at the ceiling of the classroom, and said helplessly: “Look, is the ceiling rotating?”
Professor Xin rarely put the wine aside and looked at Professor Trelawney quietly.
After a burp, Trelawney looked over with a smile, raised her hand gently, and pointed at Little Bro: “Only in this way can I face this child calmly. Forgive me, child.”
“You,” Xiaopo was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head: “It’s okay, I’m used to it.”
Professor Xin raised his hand, closed the door of the classroom, and cast a protective spell around him. In front of Professor Trelawney, he scanned the three people with a tablet to make sure there were no magical props for eavesdropping or recording, and then pressed the power button on the tablet.
He made some tea for CG and Xiaopo. He took out his own wine flask and conjured a cup. Professor Xin poured a full cup for Professor Trelawney and politely placed it on the table next to Professor Trelawney.
“Tell me, why do you make yourself like this?” Professor Xin said softly.
“Divination,” Professor Trelawney stroked her wine glass and sighed, “In your language, it’s called peeping into the sky~”
CG and Xiaopo couldn’t help but look up at Professor Trelawney who looked lonely.
Professor Trelawney picked up the glass and emptied it in one sip.
That was the wine in Professor Xin’s jug, a strong liquor that would ignite when exposed to fire. How could such wine be drunk one cup at a time?
Professor Xin quickly conjured up a few slices of bread and brought them to Professor Trelawney.
Professor Trelawney’s expression twisted for a moment, then she shook her hand and said, “This wine is really strong…”
Professor Xin laughed dryly: “Fortunately, are you okay…”
“Something’s going on,” Professor Trelawney said with a wry smile, “but it’s not the first time something’s going on…”
“Tell me about it?” Professor Sheen picked up the hip flask and was about to fill Professor Trelawney’s cup.
Professor Trelawney waved her hand to stop Professor Sheen’s actions.
Professor Xin scratched his head and said, “How about I prepare two more dishes for you, authentic Chinese cuisine, shall we order some?”
Xiao Po couldn’t help it and spat out the half-drunk tea.
“Can you be serious?” Xiaopo scolded.
CG also looked at Professor Xin with an awkward expression.
“I always feel like we should go talk to you~” Professor Trelawney said with a smile.
“That’s great. I have everything there.” Professor Xin said proudly, picking up the wine jug and taking a sip himself.
Professor Trelawney looked at Professor Xin with a smile: “You are really different from other professors…”
It’s different! It’s very different!
Xiaopo complained silently in his heart! This kind of professor, bah, how could such a person become a professor!
Alas, it’s unfortunate for our school… it’s unfortunate for Hogwarts…
As if he had guessed Xiaopo’s thoughts from his expression, Professor Xin punched Xiaopo on the forehead and asked, “What are you thinking about?”
“You guess!” Xiaopo covered his head.
“Wondering how you could become a professor…” Professor Trelawney began, looking at Little Broken with a smile.
“You really know?” Xiaopo raised his head in surprise: “You really can predict! Then what is my prediction?”
“Your prophecy is incomplete!” Professor Trelawney replied. “It is difficult and costly to read the secrets of the universe.”
Xiaopo quickly became serious.
However, Professor Trelawney didn’t seem to want to say more, so she picked up the white wine and started drinking.
“You can’t…” Professor Xin said helplessly.
“No!” Professor Trelawney suddenly said in an unquestionable tone, and the bottle of wine was placed on the table with a bang: “Do you know my great-grandmother?”
“A true prophet!” CG commented.
“Yes,” Professor Trelawney said with a desolate look on her face, “but the later years are miserable. This is the sadness of a fortune teller, who has to prove his worth and bear the corresponding price. Why bother?”
“But you still gave so many prophecies. Harry’s prophecy, and Little Broken’s prophecy.” CG said, but his tone was a little cold: “I actually want to know, did you predict the impact of your prophecy on the two children?”
“I thought you would be more concerned about the thing you are worried about!” Professor Trelawney smiled: “So I am wrong?”
CG was not willing to lie, and admitted awkwardly: “Of course, I care about that too. But Xiaopo…”
Xiaopo patted CG’s shoulder with a silly smile on his face: “It’s okay, really. I said, I’m used to it. Even if I was uncomfortable in this way or that way at the beginning, I have so many friends now. So, it’s really okay.”
CG looked at Xiaopo with a complicated expression and nodded.
Looking at the two of them, Professor Trelawney smiled and picked up the empty cup: “Let’s have another drink~”
Professor Sheen nodded and filled it up for Professor Trelawney.
“I’m sorry about the prophecy,” Professor Trelawney raised her glass and looked at Crank and CG, “but I have to be responsible for the wizarding world. I can’t pretend I know nothing about such an important matter. So I can only give hints in that way. As for how much you can understand, that’s the Ministry of Magic’s business.”
Professor Trelawney took a big sip. Although she only drank half a cup this time, it was so spicy that she took a long time to calm down before continuing, “As for what you are worried about, CG classmate, I can’t do anything about it. What is bound to come will come. Even if you make trouble in advance, it will not help. Really~ What you should really worry about is not the present, but the choice later.”
“Since it’s already determined, what’s the point of making a decision?” CG said expressionlessly.
“Between bad and worse, you have to choose one~” Professor Trelawney fiddled with the wine glass with her fingers.
“If I don’t choose either one…” CG raised his head with a determined look.
“Then you will only get worse results!” Professor Trelawney replied: “If you can, I hope you can trust the people around you.”
CG was silent, and no one knew what was going on in his mind.
Xiaopo patted CG’s arm worriedly. CG shook his head, indicating to Xiaopo that he was fine.
Professor Trelawney ignored the two and looked at Professor Xin: “As for you…”
“I didn’t ask anything.” Professor Xin smiled and took a sip of wine: “I just brought this child to talk to you.”
Professor Trelawney laughed loudly. “I already said it’s divination, why do you need to speak?”
Chapter 36 And you agreed? (Old version)
“But I don’t want to listen. Drinking is so much better~” Professor Xin took another sip.
Professor Trelawney shook her head. “It doesn’t matter whether you tell me or not. Your choice is bound to be unexpected. So, I can’t tell you what you want to know. But you should have the answer in your heart. Isn’t it?”
“I admire your ability to play charades!” Professor Xin teased, “What’s the difference between saying it and not saying it? Even those who cheat on the word count in writing novels don’t do it like you do!”
“Hahahaha~” Professor Trelawney laughed even louder. “So you understand.”
Professor Xin’s hand holding the wine flask suddenly paused, then immediately returned to normal and shrugged: “I think I understand. So how much do you know?”
“I know you! You! And you!”
Professor Trelawney pointed at Little Bro, CG and Professor Xin, drank the rest of the wine in the glass in one gulp, smiled and lay down on the table, heavy snoring sounded, as if telling the secret that Professor Trelawney didn’t want to tell.
Professor Xin sighed and looked at CG: “Lend me your wand~”
“What are you going to do?” Xiaopo asked on behalf of CG.
But CG had already conjured up a bed, and Professor Trelawney lay down gently on it under CG’s magic.
A thin blanket was lightly covered over it.
Professor Xin stood up, pushed Professor Trelawney, who was lying flat on her back, to her side, then grabbed the cushion on the seat and placed it behind Professor Trelawney. He looked at her with satisfaction and then stood up.
“What is this for?” Xiaopo asked puzzledly.
Professor Xin did not answer. He shook his hands and removed the magic in the room: “Let’s go~”
Xiaopo got up helplessly and walked towards the door.
On the way, Xiaopo was still a little confused: “So, what did Professor Trelawney mean?”
“It’s boring!” Professor Xin answered in a very frivolous manner.
Xiaopo was too tired to complain, so he rolled his eyes and hoped for CG.
CG shook his head and repeated, “It’s boring…”
“Fuck!” Xiaopo yelled, “You two are so boring!”
Looking at Xiaopo who walked to the front in anger, Professor Xin said with a smile: “He really doesn’t care about anything.”
CG nodded, “Yes, Professor Trelawney answered you and me, but not him!”
Xiaopo’s anger lasted less than 10 minutes before it disappeared.
In magical terms, this is called shaking your butt and forgetting…
During dinner, Xiaopo chatted and laughed with CG, muttering that he would definitely take CG to try Chinese rice and fried dishes when he had time.
“It smells so good!” Xiaopo drooled while eating the pumpkin pie.
CG smiled helplessly.
How nice it would be if I could be like Xiaopo.
Maybe this is fate!
Time passed day by day. After the incident in the Forbidden Forest, the professors’ inspection of the school seemed to have worked. Nothing unusual happened in Hogwarts. The children finally lived a normal life.
boring?
No. Normal Hogwarts life isn’t boring either, they have DA, and Quidditch!
Gryffindor had their first match of the term, against Ravenclaw.
This time, Xiaopo finally sat in the stands. Jaina ordered Xiaopo to be there and have a good look!
“Quidditch is about playing, not breaking every ball!”
Xiaopo smiled foolishly and listened to Jaina’s lecture very seriously.
Xiaopo wanted to come too. This is Quidditch! What kid doesn’t want to watch this game with their own eyes?
What’s more, I have friends in the team!
Now that his classmates are no longer afraid of him, Xiaopo will naturally go to see it!
It’s just that this game, really, how can I put it…
Beep~beep~
A train whistle?
A long whistle sounded! Then another one, and it was fortunate that Madam Hooch, the referee, came to her senses quickly…
The stands that were in chaos just now became quiet in an instant!
“CG, what are you doing?!” Jaina yelled with a smug look on her face, as if she was yelling deliberately for the Ravenclaws who were still riding on their brooms to hear: “Can’t you consider other people’s feelings? Can’t you let us fly one more circle? Can’t you let the audience watch for a while? What does it mean that you caught the Golden Snitch in the first 10 seconds? The commentator was stunned, wasn’t he? The audience hasn’t even sat down yet! Do you have the nerve to do that? I’m formally warning you that this won’t happen again, do you hear me!”
Then, the stadium was boiling! The commentator realized what was going on! He shouted loudly!
“A new record! CG caught the Golden Snitch in less than half a minute! This is the fastest time in the history of Hogwarts! He broke…”
CG pushed his hat down helplessly and flew back in a low-key manner!
Jaina flew over with a broom, grabbed CG’s arm and lifted it high!
Low profile? Absolutely not!
When welcoming victory, there is no need to be like this! This is the honor that CG deserves!
Xiaopo sat in the stands, enjoying the joyful atmosphere around him. It would be better if the game could last a little longer…
But it’s normal, after all, it’s CG!
I just don’t know what Selena thinks, but she probably doesn’t care much about Quidditch.
So that’s it. It’s really good to be part of the group.
Xiaopo smiled foolishly, clapped along with the excited Gryffindors around him, and looked at CG with his hands raised in embarrassment. I hope CG can get used to it in the future.
That day, the Gryffindors had a great time all night.
But later, the Gryffindors got used to it. After all, Quidditch, which lasted only 30 seconds, was quite boring.
Even the Halloween treat failed to perk up the kids.
Jaina had to find another Seeker, not so he could catch the Snitch, but just to make the game last a little longer.
Naturally, Gryffindor is far ahead in Quidditch points!
I heard that the captains of the Quidditch teams of the other three colleges have jointly submitted a request to Professor McGonagall to ban CG from participating in the competition!
The reason is!
“This is obviously beyond the scope! How can we allow professional players to participate in the school league~”
As for whether this application was approved, just look at CG who came on as a substitute 20 minutes later.
The days came to the end of November.
Given that children are becoming more receptive, the teaching progress of each course is much earlier than in previous years.
While professors were happily revising their teaching plans, Professor Xin was still practicing Tai Chi slowly in his Defense Against the Dark Arts class.
Although this can further improve students’ affinity with magic, some students still asked if they could learn something else!
Professor Xin agreed generously, but on one condition: “Okay! Beat me first!”
Then, the matter was left unresolved…
joke!
That’s the madman who beat up all his classmates at the beginning of the school year. Sorry, Professor Xin!
Who would be so desperate as to fight with her!
As a result, students have begun to discuss which professor is better than the other.
The rankings are naturally varied. After all, there are not many opportunities for professors to show their true abilities.
With such fame, Professor Slughorn seemed to have forgotten the Slug Club’s rule of only inviting students, and at one of the parties, he invited Professor Sheen.
“And you agreed?”
Chapter 37 Slug Club (Old Version)
“And you agreed?” Xiaopo asked in surprise at the DA party on the weekend.
“Really? He said he has a bottle of gin that he has treasured for a long time.” Professor Xin blew bubbles and fiddled with the tablet.
“You promised to take the three of us there?” Xiaopo pointed at CG and Selena.
“Any questions?” Professor Xin raised his head: “He said he also invited you, so I can come with you!”
“You are beyond help~” Xiaopo covered his forehead.
“You haven’t read Harry Potter, have you?” CG said lightly.
“I have seen it~” Professor Xin seemed to have thought of something: “Believe me, Professor Slughorn’s party is really not as boring as described in the novel.”
“You sound like you’ve been there before…” Selena rolled her eyes at Professor Xin.
“I promise!” Professor Xin said solemnly.
“You can’t guarantee anything!” Xiaopo cursed.
“I promised.” Professor Xin put down the tablet and said, “You guys won’t not go, will you?”
“No!” Xiaopo said decisively.
“Then…” Professor Xin dragged out the words: “Let’s fight!”
“You really think you’re invincible!” Selena glared at Professor Xin: “CG!”
“Then go!” CG suddenly raised his head and advised.
That weekend night…
“Welcome! It’s not easy to invite the three of you!”
Professor Slughorn greeted enthusiastically, the fat on his face shaking with pride.
Xiaopo, CG, and Selena greeted each other awkwardly, then walked to the corner silently.
Instead, it was Professor Xin who talked to Slughorn for a long time, and just when the three of them were confused, the truth came to light.
Professor Slughorn took Professor Xin and headed towards his private wine room!
Xiaopo sincerely mourned for Professor Slughorn’s wine collection for three minutes!
With Professor Xin’s ability, I believe that the bottle of aged gin is not the only one that will suffer tonight…
No, no, you can’t think like that.
Xiaopo shook his head…
I should think about which bottle of wine can survive from Professor Xin’s clutches…
“What are you doing?” Selena patted the little boy who was shaking his head.
“Nothing.” Xiaopo came back to his senses quickly and smiled foolishly with some embarrassment.
“Let’s play a game. This is too boring.” Selena sat on the chair and took out her tablet.
Xiaopo looked at Selena in surprise: “Don’t you dislike this thing?”
“I just don’t like that crazy woman!” Selena corrected sternly.
“Okay, okay,” Xiaopo responded, turning his head to look at CG: “Let’s go together?”
CG hesitated, shook his head, and in front of Xiaopo and Selena’s surprised gazes, he picked up a glass of champagne that Xiaopo couldn’t name, and walked to the side of the crowd…
“What is he doing…” Xiaopo opened his mouth in surprise!
Is this person really CG!?
The cool CG took the initiative to walk over and talk to others?
The characters are mixed up, right?
Or maybe!
“Quick!” Selena quickly raised her tablet and switched to the search function: “Check who CG is talking to!”
“I think it’s that Ravenclaw girl! It turns out CG likes this type of person.” Xiaopo muttered, “But the problem is, I don’t know who they are?!”
“Are you an idiot?” Selena rolled her eyes at Xiaopo in anger and said, “Turn on the photo search function!”
Xiaopo slapped his forehead and said, “That’s right!”
But just when Xiaopo was about to act, CG had already turned to several people in another direction!
“Uh…” Xiaopo was embarrassed for a second: “Is this a rejection? So quickly?”
Selena was obviously much faster than Xiaopo, and she rushed towards Xiaopo across the screen with a serious face!
“These are some very unusual children! Old-school families, celebrities, and…” Selena frowned.
“This is normal!” Xiaopo spread his hands: “Aren’t all the people in the Slug Club like this?”
Selena didn’t answer, she grabbed the broken tablet and followed CG’s steps to scan them one by one!
After ten full minutes, Selena came to a not-so-good conclusion!
CG avoided all children related to the families of Ministry of Magic officials!
“But what does this prove?” Xiaopo looked at the information on the tablet, his mind full of question marks.
“This means that CG is not only…”
As Selena was speaking, Xiaopo suddenly and secretly kicked Selena with his toes.
“CG!” Xiaopo smiled foolishly and handed over a piece of cake: “Why are you back so soon? How was your chat with everyone?”
CG spread his hands helplessly: “It’s harder than defeating a fire dragon alone…”
“You’ve defeated a fire dragon by yourself?!” Xiaopo looked at CG in surprise, with a look of envy or admiration in his eyes: “So cool!”
“It’s just a metaphor…” CG said awkwardly.
“It’s okay!” Xiaopo comforted, “At least you went to say hello.”
“Actually, they are more interested in you~” CG looked up at Xiaopo.
“Really?” Xiaopo asked in disbelief.
“Really!” CG nodded affirmatively: “They are all asking me about your situation.”
“Then you should have had a good chat with them?” Xiaopo asked doubtfully.
“I refuse!” CG shook his head.
“Rejected?” Xiaopo’s eyes widened: “What a good topic to talk about, why would you refuse?”
“If we’re talking about you, at least you should be present~” CG replied calmly.
“Uh…” Xiaopo didn’t know what to say for a moment: “You are really… a brother!”
“Ahem…” Selena cleared her throat: “Are you guys done talking?”
“What’s wrong?” Xiaopo turned his head and looked at Selena.
After rolling her eyes at Xiaopo, Selena looked at CG: “Do you know all of them?”
“Most of them!” CG answered without hiding anything.
“Intentionally avoiding people related to the Ministry of Magic?” Selena asked.
CG nodded.
“The CG I know is not like this!” Selena said bluntly.
“Yeah, so I failed!” CG said helplessly, but his expression did not change, as if he had expected this to happen.
Selena narrowed her eyes: “You don’t have any conspiracy~”
CG was speechless: “What conspiracy could I have…”
Selena squinted her eyes and continued to stare at CG. Suddenly, she slapped her forehead and her eyes widened!
“Why didn’t I do that? Great idea!”
Selena’s loud shouting scared Xiaopo!
“What’s wrong with you?” Xiaopo almost choked while eating the cake.
After giving Xiaopo a blank look, Selena pulled CG towards another corner!
“Hey, you guys…” Xiaopo spoke vaguely with cake in his mouth.
“Don’t follow me!”
Selena fought back to stop Xiaopo and pulled CG to hide on the other side.
“Selena,” CG said uncomfortably, “Are you okay?”
“Shh!”
Selena stopped CG, pulled CG to hide aside, and then secretly looked towards Xiaopo!
After Xiaopo was alone, several Ravenclaws pretended nothing had happened and came up to him.
“It worked!” Selena patted CG’s arm. “If we want them to approach Xiaopo on their own initiative, we can only arouse their interest like you! Well done!”
CG opened his mouth, but finally closed it. There was nothing wrong with it anyway. As long as Xiaopo wasn’t embarrassed, others would be embarrassed!
But with Xiaopo’s character…
CG guessed correctly, five minutes later, the sound of Xiaopo’s silly laughter could be heard from the other side!
More and more people from other colleges began to gather around, curious about the various legends about Xiaopo. Suddenly, Xiaopo became the focus of the gathering…
Even Professor Slughorn joined in at last, listening with great interest to Xiao Po’s narration of the legends related to the Zhongshan suits…
“It’s worth celebrating!” Selena smiled proudly, took two glasses of champagne and handed one to CG.
CG smiled and nodded. Even though it was just a beautiful misunderstanding, who cares!
Just at the moment when the two glasses of champagne clinked!
Snap!
Chapter 38: Flying Man (Old Version)
The sound of the glass leaving was clearly heard in every corner of the venue!
Selena examined the cup in surprise!
Could it be that I was trying too hard?
But CG had already put down the champagne with a serious face, stood up and looked out the window!
At this moment, a huge black shadow was lying on the window!
The frost spread rapidly around with the black shadow as the center!
No one spoke for a moment! Fear spread instantly!
Professor Slughorn turned around in surprise and looked at the dark shadow. Before he could react, all the glass in the room exploded as if they had agreed to do so!
There was a loud bang and fragments flew towards the crowd!
“Dementors!”
“It’s a Dementor!”
Finally, someone recognized what the black shadow was!
But how did the Dementors appear in Hogwarts? How did they break through the magic of the castle and get here?
There is no time to think about these details!
Screams rang out! Students ran away in all directions.
But the door of the room seemed to be enchanted! Even the unlocking spell was useless!
Professor Slughorn finally recovered from his surprise, took out his wand, and stood in front of everyone to protect them!
The Dementors are already charging at the crowd!
And the center of the crowd was none other than classmate Hu Xiaopo!
As the Dementors were approaching, Professor Slughorn’s Patronus Charm only had time to emit a layer of silver-white light mist!
A Patronus spell of this level can only provide a barrier at best!
A dragon roar!
CG flew up and punched out!
The fire dragon rushed out from the side, bit the Dementor with its mouth, and rushed out of the window!
A huge explosion sounded outside the castle!
The flames that shot up into the sky exploded as brilliantly as fireworks!
And then, it was absorbed by the darkness!
The students who were still rejoicing about being rescued a second ago, were now dumbfounded again!
Because, surprise!
Even though the children before could not see the power of the fire dragon, after Professor Xin taught everyone how to perceive magic, it was impossible for anyone present to fail to feel the power of CG’s magic.
Even magic this powerful can only last for such a short time?
Surprise turned into horror, and horror turned into panic!
When they first encountered danger, a few children took out their wands and prepared to fight, but at this time…
When the Dementors burst into the room again…
The minds of those children who still held their wands were completely blank!
Expect God’s Patronus?
What a joke! These kids are not DAs from Harry’s generation! Besides, Dementors have long been banished from Britain!
Nowadays, what students would learn something beyond the syllabus like the Patronus Charm?!
All we can do is use other magic to delay time!
But the fire dragon that was so powerful just now was torn into pieces in the blink of an eye!
How can we fight this?!
More and more children showed despair in their eyes!
But the Dementors don’t care about that!
The cold air came, fear came first, the Dementors waved their arms and rushed towards the crowd again!
The wooden door of a small room on the inside was kicked away! The enchanted door smashed straight towards the Dementor!
The Dementors waved their hands!
The wooden door turned into pieces in an instant!
However, immediately afterwards, two simultaneous calls for divine protection were heard from both sides of the room!
Giant panda, no, with this ferocious look, it should be called another name! Iron-eating beast!
Professor Xin’s iron-eating beast rushed forward with a roar!
On the other side, Professor Slughorn also summoned his patronus, a silver-white toucan, which soared into the sky with a cry!
The patron saint brings hope to children!
The kids are finally thinking normally!
“Don’t panic!” Professor Slughorn commanded: “Everyone cast a protective spell! Form an array…”
The next second…
The Dementor had already waved its huge hands and easily tore the two Patronuses into pieces!
“Impossible!” Even Professor Slughorn, who was calm and composed, cried out in surprise, and then reacted: “Unless!”
“That’s not a Dementor! It’s a Refined Beast!” Selena rushed over and yelled, her wand pointing straight ahead: “Everyone, come and help! There are too many obstacles!”
There was no time to worry about refining beasts! The children reacted in an instant and performed the magic they were good at…
This is the refined beast that transformed into a Dementor!
A beast that can transform into sound at lower levels, shape at middle levels, and energy at higher levels!
Be it the power of Dementors or the power of Refining Beasts, these magics cannot resist them!
Watch as this “Dementor” blocks the magic with its bare hands and roars as it shatters layer after layer of shields!
Even the guardian angel is ineffective, what else can stop it?
“Crazy woman!” Selena tried hard to strengthen the magic in front of her and shouted angrily, “What are you waiting for? Where is your fire that refines everything?”
There was no need for Selena to urge her! Professor Xin, who wore a ponytail, had already flown up, and with both palms carrying lightning, she smashed directly towards the “Dementor”!
“Use fire!” Looking at Professor Xin who was blown away by the refined beast, Selena shouted anxiously!
“No! You will be burned to death too!” CG explained for Professor Xin, using magic and rushing towards the refining beast.
This refined beast seemed to be invincible. No matter what CG and Professor Xin did, they could not stop it from moving forward!
“What now?”
Seeing that the protective spell was almost reaching its limit, Professor Slughorn looked at Selena anxiously!
Selena just wants to complain now!
You ask me, who should I ask? Are you the professor or am I the professor?
But what’s the use of complaining!
Just as the protective spell in front of them was shattered piece by piece, everyone was secretly exclaiming in their hearts that something was wrong!
Suddenly, another ominous magic roared from behind!
“Get out of my way!”
Xiaopo’s voice exploded from the crowd!
Xiaopo dodged and avoided the crowd!
The black and red magic rolled and crushed the broken defense, rushing straight towards the Dementors!
A dull collision sound was heard!
Xiaopo’s magic power was like a huge wave, hitting the refining beast heavily!
No one could have imagined that the invincible refined beast, the refined beast that transformed into a Dementor, would be knocked to the ground by Xiaopo’s magic!
“Well done!” Professor Slughorn shouted loudly!
But Professor Xin frowned and cursed in a low voice: “You are such a badass!”
Seeing that Xiaopo’s magic had already tightly entangled the refined beast, however, the next second, the body of the “Dementor” twisted, and it rushed out again inexplicably!
“Look carefully!” Seeing the Refining Beast rushing towards the crowd again without hesitation, Xiaopo controlled the magic and shouted again: “I’m here!”
Xiaopo’s roar worked!
The refining beast obviously turned its head to look at Xiaopo, but it was just a glance. If there was anything else, it was a strong sense of ridicule on that twisted face!
Is this still a “Dementor”?
Isn’t its target Xiaopo? !
So what is it for?!
“What on earth is this?” Xiaopo was completely confused!
“I told you it’s a refined beast!” Selena cursed angrily!
Seeing that the situation was not good, CG prepared to charge again!
Professor Xin grabbed CG’s robe, twisted his body and arms, and threw CG out of the window!
“What are you doing!?” Selena yelled loudly and rushed towards the window desperately!
The next second, Selena felt her body lighten and she flew out of the window!
“Crazy woman! I’ll kill you!”
Selena twisted her body in the air and roared towards the window!
Is this… an aerialist?
“Professor Xin,” someone in the corner pleaded timidly with a voice that was almost crying, “This is not how you play trapeze artist…”
Professor Xin glared at him with sharp eyes and grabbed the boy who was still in the mood to complain at this time!
“Professor Xin… Hey! Professor Xin!” the voice shouted, with tears in the corners of the eyes: “I was wrong! I don’t want to die yet, I… ah…”
Professor Xin ignored him and threw him out of the window while grabbing the child next to him with both hands…
In just a moment, a series of screaming voices flew down from the dark sky…
“What the hell! Oh my God! It’s raining, snowing, and hailing! There will be a day when you will become a servant! Ah…”
“CG!”
The screams and complaints were drowned out by Professor Xin’s roar! In the noisy night, Professor Xin’s voice resounded through the sky!
“OK!”
“Crazy woman!” Selena reacted and complained angrily: “With such a loud voice, can you shout something more powerful?!”
That’s right, Professor Xin is not crazy! Why did he throw everyone out? Because the window is the only exit now! Why did he throw CG out first? Because he is the best person among the children who can land safely from such a high place and catch others!
This is the only way to save people! Professor Xin’s reaction at this moment is faster than anyone else!
Magic lights lit up, windows were opened, the children woke up, the professors woke up, and Hogwarts woke up!
The CG has landed and casts magic quickly. However, the ground of Hogwarts has sunk and instantly turned into a huge pool!
The soft soil began to move, and the grass grew wildly, forming circles of buffer zones around it.
CG’s hands are shaking! Floating spell, bubble spell, protection spell, armor spell, countless magics are flying from different directions!
The students, professors, and the entire Hogwarts were all coordinating with the CG’s movements to catch one student after another!
“Anything else?!”
Seeing that the flying man’s action had stopped, CG shouted loudly on the ground!
Hogwarts suddenly became quiet, and everyone was waiting for the answer from above~
However, there was no answer…
Because the thick alcohol mist was already pouring out of the windows!
Huge roar!
The blazing white flames shot up into the sky!
“And us!”
In the firelight! Professor Xin grabbed Little Brontë and Professor Slughorn and jumped out!
Chapter 39 Crow’s Mouth ~ (Old Version)
CG quickly cast a spell and caught three people!
“Are you okay?” Selena rushed to the three of them and asked with concern.
Professor Slughorn nodded in shock: “No, it’s okay…”
“MD!” Professor Xin suddenly cursed, “You really are such a bad person!”
Everyone raised their heads subconsciously!
The flames dissipated!
That “Dementor” is still flying in the air!
“How is that possible!”
Xiaopo shouted in confusion, and the black and red color magic rose up again!
Screams of terror came from all over the body of the refining beast, and the sound like the friction of stones could never be mistaken!
“Ghosts!” Selena pointed in surprise at the two black shadows in the sky that were avoiding the little magic power: “Ghosts blocked the fire for the Dementors!”
“What are you waiting for?! Run!”
Seeing the refining beast rushing down towards Xiaopo’s magic power, Professor Xin could no longer care about anything else and yelled at everyone!
The children finally reacted and ran away in panic!
The refining beast then chased in one direction. Professor Xin spewed out another breath of fire, and the vengeful spirits flew up. Professor Xin waved lightning and dispersed the vengeful spirits!
The flames surged up, and the refining beast had to change direction!
Professor Xin took advantage of the situation and smashed the wine jug with his palms. Professor Xin waved his palms to control the spilled wine around his palms. A mouthful of fire sprayed on his palms, and the blazing flames immediately covered Professor Xin’s palms!
“See how you can run away!” Professor Xin shouted angrily, waving his flaming fists, and rushed towards the direction of the “Dementors”!
The black fog of the vengeful spirit gathered again and flew towards Professor Xin regardless of anything!
“Little Broken!” Professor Xin had no time to pay attention and shouted loudly: “The energy of black crystal can restrain the vengeful spirits!”
“Leave it to me!” Xiaopo roared, controlling the magic and trying to catch up!
“I’ll do it!”
CG roared, and two fire dragons wrapped around his arms! He exerted force with his feet and flew into the air!
“Don’t come and make trouble!” Professor Xin scolded, “Catch the thief and the leader! The refined beast cannot be too far away from the master! Find the person behind the scenes! Kill him for me!”
CG stopped forcibly and roared. The two fire dragons wrapped around his arms circled up. Suddenly, as if they discovered something, they guided CG to rush in another direction!
Subconsciously, the students who were still scattering stopped!
It sounds, seems, as if, maybe, should, can win!
Isn’t the situation stabilized now?
As long as Professor Xin’s flame can entangle the refining beast!
Yes! You can win!
Under the gaze of the children!
Professor Xin waved his palms! Blazing white flames danced in the dark night sky!
The black fog is coming!
Xiaopo’s magic power surged out angrily! The magic mixed with black crystals was the nemesis of the evil spirits!
“Well done!” Professor Slughorn couldn’t help but clench his wand and praised!
Professor Xin’s brows tightened involuntarily: “Shut up your bad mouth!”
As soon as he finished speaking, something unexpected happened!
Seeing that the flaming palms were about to hit the refining beast! That unpleasant laugh suddenly came out of the mouth of the refining beast!
The space suddenly twisted!
Dementors can’t cast spells! But anamorphs can!
After the twisting, two balls of black mist replaced the refining beasts!
With a clap of his palms, the flames went straight through the black fog!
Xiaopo’s magic rushes up!
The refining beast suddenly appeared in front!
Magic roars in the distance!
“Come back to me!” CG roared unwillingly!
The huge magic circle flashed with a faint blue light, covering the children’s feet!
At once, countless crisp sounds were heard all around at the same time!
Countless ice prisons instantly froze the children inside!
Professor Slughorn was stunned and didn’t know what to do for a moment!
“Help!”
Professor Xin shouted loudly, turned quickly, and stopped the refining beast for Xiaopo!
CG has rushed back!
Follow Xiaopo and break the ice prisons one after another!
However, even Professor Xin couldn’t come up with a good solution for the combination of refined beasts and vengeful spirits!
“Are you done yet?” Professor Xin shouted anxiously, “Hurry up!”
“alright!”
Xiao Po smashed the last piece of ice prison with one palm, carried the student who was already shivering with cold inside on his back, and rushed towards the center desperately!
“Hold on! Hold on!” Xiaopo shouted vigorously, “It’s almost there, there is help ahead!”
Professor Slughorn finally did something, lighting a bonfire, distributing potions, and CG summoning Heramanthe to help the children with emergency treatment.
“Thank you, thank you!” said the Slytherin who was put down by Xiaopo with a trembling voice!
“Don’t waste time! Come and help!” Without giving Xiaopo time to answer, Professor Xin kept yelling, “Damn it, it’s been so long, where are the other professors?”
Unfortunately, there are no other professors. The only ones who can help are Xiaopo and CG for now!
“CG, let’s go!” Xiaopo looked towards the direction of the battlefield and rushed forward with a roar!
The black and red magic roared towards the evil spirit!
The vengeful spirit turned into black mist and quickly dodged to the side!
White light! Holy white light! CG’s holy white magic! Finally found the flaw of the black fog! The black fog couldn’t dodge in time, and the moment it was illuminated by the holy light, layers of black smoke evaporated and dissipated!
The shrill howling shook everyone’s eardrums!
“pretty!”
Professor Slughorn finally learned his lesson and muttered to himself. I can’t help it. It’s such a wonderful cooperation, I can’t help but say something~
If you whisper so quietly, there shouldn’t be any accidents, after all, no one can hear you~
A shrill howl sounded, and Professor Slughorn subconsciously covered his mouth with his hands!
The seriously injured vengeful spirit suddenly regrouped at this moment and fled into the distance like a flying bird!
Xiaopo and CG jumped out together and chased after him recklessly!
In the darkness in the distance, there was a faint sound of movement!
CG’s eyes fixed, and he quickly pushed Xiaopo away!
Countless ice cones flew past the two people’s sides quickly!
Xiaopo roared and the black and red magic seemed to sense Xiaopo’s anger and became even more ferocious!
The darkness unconsciously surged towards Xiaopo’s pupils!
“Xiaopo!” CG reminded loudly, and the holy white magic fell, instantly cutting off the black and red magic!
Xiao Po knelt on the ground exhausted!
“Thank you, thank you, that was a close call!” Xiaopo, who had recovered, lay on the ground and thanked…
The vengeful spirit that rushed into the darkness seemed to receive some command, roared unpleasantly, and rushed forward again!
CG raised his hand and a ray of holy light shone!
The vengeful spirit changed direction in an instant and rushed straight towards the already endangered Refining Beast!
“Who on earth allowed you to act so presumptuously in Hogwarts?”
A majestic roar sounded!
No one had ever seen Professor McGonagall so angry!
The emerald green robe seemed to be burning with flames. Professor McGonagall waved her wand and powerful magic rushed towards the refined beast!
The huge Hogwarts sky suddenly lit up!
Hermione, Neville, and Professor Flitwick raised their wands! White magic shot straight into the sky!
The professors came, and those who did not rush directly to the rescue from their respective rooms had obviously made sufficient arrangements!
The castle magic starts again!
A layer of white hemispherical light shield slowly fell down, covering the entire Hogwarts Castle!
The vengeful spirit could no longer hide and fell to the ground, struggling in pain!
Without the protection of the vengeful spirits, the refined beasts are no longer a match for Professor Xin!
A ball of blazing fire suddenly rose up!
In the blazing white! The refining beast twisted its body madly!
“Hahahahahaha!” A crazy laugh suddenly sounded from the castle!
A white ice point suddenly appeared and exploded in an instant, and countless ice lines spread rapidly in all directions!
Several professors quickly turned their wands to stop the ice line!
A black shadow suddenly rushed out, grabbed the vengeful spirit and the refined beast at lightning speed, and flew towards the castle!
“Want to run!” Professor Xin roared, jumped up and punched down!
Under the sky, the castle seemed to come alive, and countless white lights rushed towards the bearded man like silk threads!
Seeing that the black shadow had no way to retreat, suddenly a bright light flashed on the ground!
Professor Xin frowned and looked carefully!
Magic circles! Another magic circle! Where did all these magic circles come from in Hogwarts Castle?
In that case, let’s smash you to pieces together!
A roar sounded, and Professor Xin punched forward with a violent blow. The flames and magic gathered together and blew up the ground and the dirt flew everywhere…
“Bastard!” Professor Xin roared to the sky, venting his dissatisfaction!
One second! Just one second!
Amid the piercing laughter, the bearded man, the vengeful spirit, and the refined beast disappeared into the magic circle…
Chapter 40 Angry Professor Xin (Old Version)
“Can someone give me an explanation?” Professor Xin shouted unwillingly, his eyes sweeping over every professor: “I really want to know how that person can come and go freely in Hogwarts? There are so many magic arrays, don’t tell me you don’t know anything about them!”
“Please calm down, Professor Xin!” Hermione replied helplessly, but not humbly: “We really don’t know about these magic arrays!”
“Who told me that the castle was re-inspected and reinforced after the last attack? Where is your defensive magic? Is this the result of your reinforcement? Is this the level of Hogwarts?!” Professor Xin roared louder and louder, and pulled off the rubber band behind his head!
“Enough! Professor Xin! Watch your attitude!” Professor McGonagall walked over with an unhappy face!
Professor Sheen muttered silently. If it wasn’t Professor McGonagall, she would have yelled back at anyone else, even the Minister of Magic! But not Professor McGonagall!
Professor Xin angrily reached for his waist, only to realize that his wine jug was no longer there!
“Asshole!” Professor Xin stamped his feet and yelled loudly! I don’t know if he was venting his dissatisfaction with the enemy’s escape, or because he didn’t get to drink!
CG supported Xiaopo and rushed back. Xiaopo was still a little weak, but he was much better now.
Professor McGonagall looked at the two of them with satisfaction, then went to check on the other students sitting by the fire.
Fortunately, no one was injured this time…
“Let’s take the children back first…” Professor McGonagall sighed and said helplessly.
“Absolutely not!” Professor Xin’s roar came again!
“Professor Xin…” Hermione tried to persuade again.
Professor Xin waved his hand and interrupted Hermione!
“I’m annoyed too! I don’t want to care!” Professor Xin fiddled with her hair vigorously, trying her best to suppress her anger, but the tone of her voice, which was several octaves higher than usual, completely betrayed her.
Looking at Hermione who was telling him with her piercing eyes that “even if you shout like that it won’t solve the problem”, Professor Xin didn’t want to suppress his anger any longer. He pushed the tablet over and pushed the scan results onto the field. A bunch of glaring red exclamation marks fell on the huge Hogwarts playground.
“Look for yourself!” Professor Xin roared, “There are 13 magic circles in this open space in front of the castle alone! What on earth have you done? What is the defense of Hogwarts like?! The magic you mentioned, the safety of Hogwarts, are all bullshit…”
“Enough!” Professor McGonagall’s majestic voice came, and Professor Xin swallowed back the swear words he had not yet said.
“Hogwarts has never…” Neville stood up dissatisfied!
But Professor McGonagall had already stopped Neville! Turning around and looking at the shocking red signs on the field, Professor McGonagall was so angry for the first time!
Suppressing her anger, Professor McGonagall looked around!
“Thoroughly check the entire school!”
“I’ve been waiting for you to say this!” Professor Xin jumped up excitedly and picked up the tablet: “Little Bro! CG! Follow me!”
Looking at Professor Xin walking towards the castle, Hermione walked up to Professor McGonagall and said, “Professor, is this appropriate? Professor Xin is from China after all.”
“There’s nothing inappropriate about that!” Professor McGonagall rubbed her forehead. “If she really wanted to harm Hogwarts, she wouldn’t have that attitude just now.”
Hermione nodded: “Shall we go too?”
“Let’s take these children to the infirmary first. I think Madam Pomfrey will be busy tonight.”
Professor McGonagall said softly, raised her head, looked at the sky that was still trying to shine white light in the dark night, and felt a sense of powerlessness…
This night is destined not to be peaceful!
Under Professor McGonagall’s orders, the professors took tablets and thoroughly scanned the entire castle.
When the results came out the next morning, everyone involved in the action, whether students or professors, was completely shocked!
In the castle, there are 21 magic circles and 11 forbidden magics; in the corridor, there are 7 magic circles and 1 forbidden magic; in the square, there are 13 magic circles and 6 forbidden magics; in the school infirmary, there are 9 magic circles and 14 forbidden magics!
Adding on some other unimportant corners, there are nearly a hundred magic arrays and prohibitions in total!
After Professor McGonagall heard the result, she was stunned! Then she was furious!
This is a shame!
The biggest humiliation Hogwarts has ever suffered!
A place that protects students from being disturbed has been secretly tampered with so many times!
Is this still Hogwarts?!
What made Professor McGonagall even more angry was that the distribution of these magic arrays and prohibitions was highly consistent with the Ministry of Magic’s action routes in the previous school year!
After hearing the analysis, Professor McGonagall slammed the table and lost her composure for the first time!
“Kingsley! What the hell does he want to do!”
No one answered, no one answered!
Hermione silently closed the tablet in front of Professor McGonagall and stood quietly aside.
“Let’s go! Principal!” Professor Xin stood up from his chair and said, “I’ll go with you to get an explanation!”
Hermione stepped forward quickly: “Let’s take a long-term view…”
“It’s already like this, why bother to make long-term plans?” Professor Xin looked at Hermione with dissatisfaction.
Professor McGonagall’s sharp eyes swept over the two of them behind the lenses!
Professor Xin and Hermione stopped arguing tactfully!
Professor McGonagall looked at the portraits of each headmaster above her head one by one, and put her glasses on the table with a determined look: “It’s time to go to the Ministry of Magic to meet Kingsley!!!”
That afternoon, The Quibbler reported the incident in complete detail. In a short time, the news spread all over Country Y like snowflakes!
Countless reporters flooded into the hall of the Ministry of Magic!
Only this time, there were no anxious questions and no clamor for advancement!
Everyone stood quietly in the hall, behind the two Hogwarts professors!
Professor McGonagall’s face was as gloomy as water, and she stood straight in the middle of the reception hall of the Ministry of Magic!
Behind him, Professor Xin was wearing a very formal wizard robe, which was rare, and holding the tablet computer containing all the information!
Everyone knew what was going to happen, and the flashbulbs kept flashing around!
The receptionist at the front desk of the Ministry of Magic’s reception hall had already been standing quietly by. This kind of scene was definitely not something a small clerk like her could handle!
But when exactly did Kingsley come down? It had been five full minutes!
“How about you two go in and take a rest first?” The receptionist looked at the clock in the hall nervously and gestured with his hand: “It’s not good to stand in the hall like this, what do you think…”
Professor Xin politely stopped the receptionist!
“We’re not going anywhere today! We’ll just wait here! When Kingsley gives us a satisfactory explanation, we’ll leave!”
“Minister Kingsley is busy…” the receptionist said with a smile.
“We are willing to wait!” Professor Xin said calmly, and stood steadily beside Professor McGonagall!
Professor McGonagall closed her eyes silently without saying a word! But the silence at this moment was more lethal than any fierce words!
The receptionist shuddered involuntarily!
It’s over, it’s all over!
What would these reporters write? Putting aside other things, just the fact that the headmaster of Hogwarts had to wait in the hall was enough to make public opinion boil!
What should we do now? Ask the reporters to leave?
You wish!
At this time, if any party dares to touch these reporters, they will be sprayed to death by the public!
“Minister, please come out soon!” the receptionist shouted anxiously in his heart!
It was as if I heard the receptionist’s thoughts!
The door of the Ministry of Magic was suddenly opened!
Accompanied by the heads of relevant departments, Kingsley strode out!
Chapter 41 Hogwarts, needs an explanation! (Old version)
“Professor McGonagall!” Kingsley greeted enthusiastically, extending his hand from afar: “Why are you standing here? Let’s go inside and talk!”
Professor Xin took a quick step forward and raised his arm, just like he had just stopped the poor receptionist, and stopped the former member of the Order of the Phoenix, now the Minister of Magic, Kingsley, Kingsley Shacklebolt!
“What’s this for?” Kingsley said with a smile, looking at the reporter behind him: “I promise that no matter what the request is, our Ministry of Magic will definitely give Hogwarts a satisfactory answer!”
Professor McGonagall suddenly opened her eyes and looked at Kingsley with a resolute, firm and determined look!
Kingsley subconsciously took a step back!
It has been years since I have seen Minerva like this! I almost forgot how brave and fearless she was when she was young!
“Minerva,” Kingsley straightened his robes and said softly, “If you have anything to say, go in and talk!”
“Let’s talk here!” Professor McGonagall’s voice was not loud, but it was loud enough for everyone to hear clearly: “I just want to show you the latest situation at Hogwarts and ask for an explanation, that’s all!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Professor Xin borrowed the magic wand from someone and lightly tapped the tablet!
The complete holographic projection of Hogwarts instantly unfolded in the reception hall of the Ministry of Magic!
The castle, the Black Lake, the long corridor, the forbidden forest, the stone pillars and the trees!
Every detail was reproduced so vividly that everyone in the scene seemed to have really arrived at Hogwarts in an instant!
Just as the reporters were sighing!
Suddenly, a red exclamation mark popped up! With a frightening beep, the exclamation mark kept shaking!
It was so abrupt and so out of place! It made everyone feel extremely uncomfortable!
What is that? Can’t you just take it off?
The answer is no!
Because in just a moment, more and more exclamation marks kept popping up, and the frightening prompt sound rang one after another!
Some reporters have already started covering their ears!
But that annoying sound and that annoying exclamation mark just won’t stop!
More and more, more and more!
It feels like the entire castle is almost covered in that bright red!
A bad premonition suddenly came to Kingsley’s heart!
“Enough!” Kingsley raised his hand, wanting to interrupt Professor Xin’s magic!
But this isn’t magic! And Professor Sheen won’t be interrupted by Kingsley!
Professor Xin easily hid beside Professor McGonagall!
Professor McGonagall glared at Kingsley sternly!
Kingsley shook his long sleeves, snorted, and took his hand back!
The prompts stopped! No more exclamation marks!
A shocking line of numbers! A tone of voice without any emotion!
“In Hogwarts Castle, a total of 97 different types of magic have been discovered!”
The reporters opened their mouths wide; they had seen the report in The Quibbler, heard about the attack on Hogwarts, and learned that many restrictions were discovered during the subsequent thorough investigation!
But, with 97 magical spells and exclamation marks everywhere in Hogwarts, why do they seem so numerous?
How can this be called a sign above Hogwarts? This is clearly a Hogwarts under the sign!
Looking at the red exclamation marks standing everywhere, the reporters finally had an objective concept of the 97 places!
So many?
However, no one asked questions, no one spoke, because this was not the end at all!
The scene continued, and a Dementor appeared out of nowhere outside the castle!
The reporters subconsciously took a step back, and some officials from the Ministry of Magic had already summoned their patronuses!
Everything was so realistic that even the feeling of terror and despair seemed to be conveyed!
“It is impossible for Dementors to appear in Country Y!” the Director of the Department of Magical Enforcement shouted loudly behind him.
Professor McGonagall looked over calmly, and after just one glance, the director silently shut his mouth!
This look is so sharp! It’s even sharper than the minister’s!
After all, he is a member of the Order of the Phoenix who has experienced those dark ages! Once his aura spreads, it is not something that ordinary people can just look at!
Sudden!
The loud bang of glass shattering attracted everyone’s attention again!
The scene continued, and the children screamed in fear!
Professors Sheen and Slughorn led their students in a desperate resistance!
When the two children rushed out without hesitation, the reporters were moved!
When the children were thrown out of the window one after another, the reporters were so anxious that they didn’t know what to do!
When countless ice cells froze everyone into ice cubes, the reporters were furious!
And when the magic circle finally lit up and mocking laughter echoed throughout the hall, no one could stand there quietly anymore!
“Who is it?”
“Someone must be held accountable for this!”
“This must not be allowed to happen!”
All kinds of shouts!
Ringing in the halls of the Ministry of Magic! Ringing in Diagon Alley! Ringing in Wizarding Central Square! Ringing in every major gathering place for wizards in L2 Town!
Yes, it’s another live broadcast!
The Floo powder that continued to burn nearby restored everything to the wizards!
It’s not that Kingsley didn’t notice it. The moment Professor Xin lit the Floo powder, Kingsley already realized something was wrong!
But, he couldn’t stop it! At least he couldn’t stop it in front of all the reporters!
People have the right to know the truth!
Yes, the public has the right to know the truth! But what will be the consequences? Kingsley no longer dared to think about it, and now he could only take it one step at a time…
The picture slowly replayed and stopped on a blurry image!
The black shadow was flying quickly along the ground. In the next second, it would disappear into the magic circle with the monster that attacked Hogwarts!
“Who is he?!” Kingsley roared angrily!
Yes, whether it is true or not, Kingsley must be angry now! He must unite with the public to fight against the enemy!
Professor Xin sneered and enlarged the close-up of his face!
“Ah…” Kingsley sighed, feeling distressed but helpless: “It’s a pity that it’s too vague! If I knew who he was! No matter who he is, the Ministry of Magic will bring him to justice!”
“Hmph!” Professor Xin snorted disdainfully!
Point your finger at the screen! AI works quickly!
The blurred picture seemed like magic, frame by frame, like a mosaic, was restored bit by bit!
Finally, the restoration was completed, and the exquisite beard was presented to every audience!
“This is impossible!” Kingsley no longer cared about acting at this point, he had already recognized who the person was!
The other audience members also recognized who that person was!
Just a few months ago, this person completed a live broadcast that shocked the entire wizarding world!
Scoobing! Scoobing of the Inspectorate! Scoobing of the Inspectorate, reporting directly to the Minister of Magic!
Row after row of detailed information appeared on the analysis interface next to it, but no one was interested in looking at it in detail at this time!
Everyone’s eyes were focused on Kingsley!
“Hogwarts needs an explanation!” Professor McGonagall said lightly, without a trace of pity in her tone!
Chapter 42: Storm is Coming (Old Version)
Kingsley felt like he was really being publicly executed!
Any mistake now could ruin his political career! No, even the credibility of the Ministry of Magic would be gone!
Kingsley took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down!
Trying hard to act heartbroken and unwilling to believe it!
Turning to face the reporters, Kingsley slowly said, “I swear in the name of the Minister of Magic that this has absolutely nothing to do with the Ministry of Magic or the Inspectorate!”
Cold snorts, contempt, and ridicule continued to ring out among the crowd!
No one will believe it, no one is willing to believe it!
“Scoop!” Kingsley raised his voice, forcibly suppressing all the sarcasm. “He was kidnapped by the organization in an extremely cruel way last year! Now, he appears again. We have reason to believe that all this is done by someone with ulterior motives! They are slandering the Ministry of Magic and trying to divide us! At a time when unity is urgently needed, such a thing is definitely a conspiracy!”
“According to reliable information from foreign media, the staff of the Inspectorate have returned to the Ministry of Magic!” A reporter below raised his hand high!
Kingsley silently remembered the reporter who asked the question and the media he represented!
“But there is definitely no Scoobing in it!” Kingsley said sincerely, “Indeed, with the help of Party Z, the Inspectorate successfully escaped from the clutches of the organization, but Scoobing was definitely not among them! Now that I think about it, Scoobing’s disappearance is definitely a conspiracy!”
“You mean, it’s possible that Scott has defected to the organization? Or joined other anti-government groups?” another reporter asked.
“It’s not impossible!” Kingsley replied calmly, “But before getting definite evidence, the Ministry of Magic will not jump to conclusions. That would be irresponsible to the parties involved and to the public! Please believe me…”
“Is this what you told Hogwarts, Minister Kingsley?” Professor McGonagall interrupted Kingsley coldly.
“Please rest assured, Hogwarts!” Kingsley quickly turned to Professor McGonagall, his expression earnest: “The Ministry of Magic will definitely arrest Scoob and bring the whole matter to justice, and give an explanation to Hogwarts and all the people who care about this matter!”
“Great! Great! Great!” Professor Xin clapped his hands and mocked, “How high-sounding! I hope you can remain so calm next time!”
“What’s next?” Kingsley had a calm expression, but his heart was already in turmoil…
Suddenly, the image that had been stopped for half a day suddenly changed! The screen switched back to the shocking bunch of exclamation marks just now!
The exclamation mark quickly shrank and faded while ensuring that it was clear enough for people to see, as if it was just a mark on the corner, and the picture suddenly became comfortable. It is worthy of being Hogwarts, no matter from which angle you look at it, it is so magnificent…
However, at this moment, a group of Aurors entered Hogwarts aggressively, led by Kingsley!
There was no time to be surprised, as the Aurors had already quickly approached Hogwarts. Wherever they passed, the exclamation marks became bigger and more eye-catching again!
As the images continue!
Without exception, the Aurors lit up all the signs!
97! 97 eye-catching red exclamation marks! Flashing neatly again!
“This! How are you going to explain it!”
Professor Xin put down the tablet and said in a loud voice!
Once again, the reporters and the public were excited!
Countless voices rang out, and it was impossible to tell what they were shouting.
“This has nothing to do with the Ministry of Magic! I promise! People from the organization were once mixed in, and those marks are definitely a conspiracy of the organization!”
An officer in an Auror uniform raised his voice and even used magic: “Harry Potter was also involved in the action that day! Potter can prove it! Where is Potter? Where did Potter go?”
“Shut up!” Kingsley yelled!
Of course he knew where Potter was and what role Potter played at this moment!
But will that work? No matter who it is, as long as he represents the Ministry of Magic, will anyone really listen to him?
Too much red tape! Too much perfunctory work! Too much calling a deer a horse, a mouse a duck, confusing right and wrong!
Finally, it is the Ministry of Magic’s turn to taste the bitter fruit!
The reporters had even given up asking questions. At this moment, everyone had reached a consensus! To hell with those sweet words! They didn’t want to hear any more!
Amid the noise, a voice became increasingly clearer, resounding among the people in unison!
Step down!
Ministry of Magic resigns!
Kingsley out!
“Please be quiet!” Kingsley tried to suppress all the voices: “I promise to protect the interests of Hogwarts, help Hogwarts unconditionally, ensure the safety of Hogwarts, and protect the safety of the children!”
The shouts of “step down” continue!
Kingsley understood that in this situation, there was only one person who could help him! If that person was willing, everything could be saved!
Kingsley looked at Professor McGonagall helplessly!
Professor McGonagall gave Kingsley a cold look, turned to face the others, and pressed her hands down in the air, signaling everyone to be quiet.
Kingsley looked at Professor McGonagall gratefully and said again, “I promise that the Ministry of Magic will thoroughly investigate this matter and give Hogwarts a satisfactory answer. Before the results of the investigation come out, the Ministry of Magic will protect the safety of Hogwarts, and the safety of every student and every professor at all costs! This is the promise of the Ministry of Magic, and it is my promise, Kingsley!”
No one spoke, no one answered!
Everyone’s eyes turned to Professor McGonagall!
Professor McGonagall turned and looked at Kingsley, her eyes still cold!
“Hogwarts,” Professor McGonagall’s voice was still very soft, but the clear words were easily heard by everyone: “Rejected!”
“Reject!” Kingsley was stunned and repeated subconsciously, then reacted and his face instantly turned cold: “Have you considered the consequences!”
Professor McGonagall rolled her eyes at Kingsley, turned around with determination, and announced to everyone firmly and courageously: “Hogwarts will find out the truth in its own way! We will use our abilities to protect every student! No matter what challenges we face! Hogwarts will never compromise!”
Professor McGonagall raised her hands excitedly!
The flash lights kept flashing!
The news was overwhelming, and no matter what the content was, almost all of them put this photo on the front page!
“The Quibbler” follows up as soon as possible, with rich and detailed content, detailing the dark actions of the Ministry of Magic over the years!
Kingsley realized the seriousness of the problem!
The angry Kingsley called a meeting of all his cronies!
Suddenly a law was passed and promulgated at great speed!
“The Quibbler” has been listed as an illegal publication!
The Daily Prophet published a lot of news about Hogwarts! And detailed the achievements of the Ministry of Magic in recent years!
Kingsley’s photo also appeared in the following issues of the Daily Prophet! An article titled “The Ministry of Magic Will Never Compromise” was reprinted crazily by all official channels!
No one cares about this childish title! But one thing is certain: the Ministry of Magic is so hostile to Hogwarts!
Everyone felt that a storm was coming!
But in this situation, something happened that no one expected!
Just the day after The Quibbler was declared illegal!
The new amendment order was issued, and the name of “The Quibbler” was corrected! “The Quibbler” was re-published!
All recent issues of the Daily Prophet have been urgently recalled! The replaced content completely splits Kingsley and the Ministry of Magic into two parts!
“The Ministry of Magic should not be held responsible for Kingsley’s fault!”
“We have an excellent system, but we lack a good enough leader!”
“Kingsley does not represent the Ministry of Magic!”
Views like these are everywhere in the news of all mainstream media!
But if the Minister of Magic cannot represent the Ministry of Magic, then who can? This is not just a division, this is a power reduction!
All of a sudden, the wind direction changed completely!
Kingsley was shocked to find that when the conflict broke out, he, who had prepared for battle with all his strength, was completely abandoned!
Chapter 43 Political Game (Old Version)
How is this possible?
The Minister of Magic was completely abandoned at the beginning of the battle!
Is there any joke more outrageous than this?
Of course!
It’s just that reporting is not allowed!
But now there is nothing to worry about!
“The Quibbler” is like a wild horse that has broken free from its reins and is rushing forward at full speed!
Countless secret news, one after another, are constantly being reported!
The Ministry of Magic has gone silent! Kingsley no longer appears in public! The Inspectorate has gone undercover!
The people are angry! They are boiling with anger!
However, as some rumors spread quickly, I started to get scared again!
Key figures have faded from public view one after another! Opinion leaders have started to disappear mysteriously!
Finally, a new problem appeared before everyone!
Are these really what we can see?! Knowing so much, will we really not be killed to silence us?!
Psychologically, people have begun to reject it! But physically, everyone is still very honest!
These days, The Quibbler is almost sold out as soon as it is published! No matter how many issues the publisher issues, it is not enough to meet the market demand!
What the hell is going on? How many people are there in the whole of L-Dun?
Who bought all these magazines?
It seems that no one knows the answer, but we only know that there are still many people complaining about not having seen the new “The Quibbler”!
Is there anything more surprising than this?!
The answer is yes!
As time goes by, various investigations become more in-depth!
Countless secrets have been proven to be completely true!
In other words, the Ministry of Magic really betrayed the interests of the people and did so many shady things!
The missing opinion leader was rescued! He denounced being kidnapped by a secret agency!
Key figures come out to voice their opinions again! Claiming to have received death threats!
The halls of the Ministry of Magic were packed to bursting!
Countless slogans and shouts have made it impossible for the entire Ministry of Magic to function normally!
This is the public opinion!
Whether it is true, coerced, misleading, or exaggerated! In short, this is the current public opinion!
However!
Even more terrifying things began to happen!
More and more violent incidents are starting to happen!
The looting and burning are no longer concentrated in the Ministry of Magic!
More and more institutions are affected!
More and more businesses are being looted!
More and more people are injured!
Diagon Alley is almost closed!
The people are finally starting to panic! Even compared to the dark ages, the current situation is absolutely terrible!
Finally, Kingsley, who had been criticized so badly, began to be remembered!
The Aurors finally set out at the perfect time!
Those who hurt others! Catch!
Stealing robber! Catch!
Attackers! Catch!
The parade must be declared, and only those who have passed the declaration can proceed! Otherwise! You will be arrested!
It’s time to settle the accounts!
Someone rushed into the Ministry of Magic! Catch!
Don’t ask why! The Ministry of Magic is also an institution! Attack the institution! Catch!
Don’t ask why violence can be used when arresting people. How can we arrest people without violence?
But those methods were obviously excessive!
Shut up! This is necessary! Do you want to see Auror casualties?
Why did you arrest me? I was just protesting! I didn’t do anything illegal!
How do you prove it?
Can’t prove it!
Grasp!
I have video proof!
Fake! Catch!
I am wronged!
Come back with us, if you are really innocent, we will let you go! We will never wrongly accuse a good person!
When will you let me go?
Still going through the process!
Wait!
when!
Shut up!
Thunderous means! Always so terrifying!
Gradually, no one wants to go out of the house anymore!
You can protest, but if the iron bar is about to hit you, then you must…
Kingsley walked back to the stage and delivered a righteous and stern speech, denouncing those who harmed the interests of others and tried to divide society!
“As long as I am in office, I will take my responsibilities and all illegal acts will be severely punished!”
Kingsley spoke passionately on the flyer independently produced by the Ministry of Magic!
“But what is illegal?”
At the DA meeting, Winice looked at the flyer and asked weakly.
“You’ve hit the nail on the head!” Lily said helplessly, “Dad and James have been extremely busy lately. They’ve been living in the office for a long time, and haven’t even sent a message back for a long time. The last time they sent a message back, they said that the Aurors knew that many people were innocent, but they had to arrest them! Otherwise, they themselves might be locked up!”
“They shouldn’t compromise! How can this be!” Albus slapped the table!
“There are still people resisting!” Selena calmly picked up the instrument next to her and sang a different tune.
“Forget it!” Trod sighed, “All the applications for parades have been rejected! What’s the next one? Applying for permission to breathe? Maybe one day, what we need to apply for is our own freedom!”
“What’s the difference between this and the Umbridge era?” Jaina asked dissatisfiedly, “How can he do whatever he wants?”
“Don’t worry! There are people who are really resisting!” Selena pointed to a photo in the magazine. “For example, these people who are treated unfairly! People who can’t live happily! Hogwarts! Of course, there are also people like us who are unwilling to succumb to power!”
“Although I think you should be praised for your courage, I still advise you to be more restrained!” Professor Xin put down the tablet next to him: “I have seen too many political struggles, and the consequences for the victims are very tragic!”
“Who was the one who loudly asked us ‘what are you afraid of’?” Selena rolled her eyes at Professor Xin and continued to fiddle with the newspaper in her hands.
“Do you know why I hate politics? Because politics never has good or evil or right or wrong! The tragedy of a small person is that you only want to take care of yourself, but you are washed away by the torrent of history! At that time, blazing a trail from scratch were all compliments. At least, you were still alive. Most of the time, you are reduced to ashes without leaving any trace of your existence. The most terrifying thing is that this result cannot be changed at all, no matter who wins or loses!” Professor Xin said with a complicated expression, but the smile on his face slowly stretched, and he looked at Selena carelessly: “But just based on what you said just now, I will protect you! Hahahaha!”
“DA never needs anyone’s protection!” Albus stood up and said, “Kingsley, come and try if you have the guts! Let’s see who will suffer the consequences!”
Professor Xin looked at Albus strangely, and asked the little boy beside him: “Where does his inexplicable confidence come from? Should I wake him up?”
Xiaopo covered his mouth, trying hard to resist the urge to laugh!
Albus rolled up his sleeves and rushed towards Professor Xin. Scorpius smiled and held Albus tightly!
“Selena,” Ignoring the boys’ nonsense, Winice raised her hand timidly: “You just said, people who can’t live happily? It’s already this day and age, are there really still people who can’t live happily?”
“Yes, and a lot!” CG said with some heaviness.
“But how could that be? I have hands and feet. Can’t I support myself by finding a job?” Winice still refused to believe it.
“Even if you have hands and feet, you may not be able to find a job!” Professor Xin rubbed Winice’s head, and his tone suddenly seemed a little serious. He sighed: “Even if you find a job, you may not be able to support yourself! Even if you can support yourself, you may not be able to live well! We Chinese have an old saying, Heaven and earth are not benevolent and treat all things as straw dogs! The people will always suffer!”
Winice nodded, not quite understanding: “Is there anything we can do? I want to help these people you mentioned.”
“It’s very difficult!” Professor Xin shook his head.
“Then we should do it!” Xiaopo, who had been silent all the time, suddenly interrupted.
“Idiot!” Selena cursed with a smile, “I’m already doing it! Why do you think Kingsley can act so arrogantly?”
“Need I say that? He’s the Minister of Magic!” Lily said as a matter of course, “If he weren’t the Minister, no one would listen to him!”
“What happens after the Minister of Magic?” Selena demanded.
“What do you mean?” Albus was confused by Selena!
“Why was Kingsley able to become the Minister of Magic?” Selena asked in a different way.
“It was chosen!” Lily said again.
“No, Lily!” Selena shook her head. “Whoever becomes the Minister of Magic is never determined by votes, or who has more power, or who is the Minister! Everything is a game of capital! Whoever brings greater benefits, whoever occupies more resources, will gain the advantage! Whoever gains the advantage, wins! And in this game, the winner takes all!”
“But the investors don’t think highly of Kingsley!” Scorpius shook his head, expressing his objection: “At least our Malfoy family doesn’t fully support him! Father said that the family invests in other people every year!”
“Your family is so rich!” Albus couldn’t help but sigh!
Scorpius smiled and scratched his head.
“That’s right!” Selena answered affirmatively: “Think about why The Quibbler has not been banned! Think about why Kingsley can’t cover the sky with one hand now!”
“He has already covered the sky with one hand, okay?” Albus said angrily.
“Shut up!” Selena rolled her eyes at Albus. “Capital is wavering now, and whoever capital supports in the end will determine who wins!”
“Then what can we do?” Xiaopo agreed with Selena.
“Find a way to gain an advantage!” CG said calmly, “Start at Hogwarts!”
Chapter 44 You are an orangutan~ (old version)
What did the DAs do? Even Xiaopo didn’t really know.
After that party, whenever Xiaopo asked what to do, Selena always said, “Wait!”
But what are you waiting for?
Selena was reluctant to give an answer! I only knew that Selena had been writing, crossing out, and rewriting on her tablet recently!
But even so, life at Hogwarts goes on.
Perhaps, the reason why Hogwarts is elevated to such a lofty status is really because it is a paradise on earth!
The children inside can speak freely, while outside…
When an avalanche occurs, no snowflake is innocent! The Ministry of Magic is only one spark away from exploding…
The more people we catch, the more we catch!
Things are getting worse!
In a few weeks!
Kingsley’s high-pressure rule has faced its first wave of challenges!
As the situation became tense and everyone remained silent, supplies began to be snatched away!
Prices have completely let themselves go!
Even if the Ministry of Magic transferred more inventory, what could it do?
This crisis, centered in Ldun, has spread across the entire country Y!
In such a frenzy, the inventory is just a drop in the bucket…
Then!
The poor really can’t feed themselves!
Stores are closed! Factories are closed!
The number of people who can’t make a living is increasing like a snowball!
More and more people took to the streets! Gathering in front of magic departments everywhere!
There is no energy to march, no energy to shout slogans, everyone just sits quietly!
There is only one goal, I hope someone can do something!
“We! Just want to survive!”
It’s no longer a matter of changing people or stepping down. Staying alive has become the only wish in the hearts of everyone who comes here!
Facts have proved that the slogans shouted out are really useless!
Actions always speak louder than words, even if you just sit quietly!
Thousands of spontaneous collective actions, even if they were just sitting, would be enough to scare the Ministry of Magic!
But what can the Ministry of Magic do?
The officials tried to dissuade him! Kingsley showed up! To no avail!
The problem is there, it has not been solved! If the poor want to survive, they can only continue to sit like this.
The Ministry of Magic began to have a headache, and Kingsley began to have a headache! Keeping the door closed seemed to be the only way now!
A feeling called despair spread among the people sitting in silence! It was as if thousands of Dementors were hovering over their heads!
But the reality is far more terrifying than that, because even the guardian angel cannot dispel this kind of despair!
I don’t know which level of officials will be the first to be unable to bear it!
Give the Aurors an order to disperse the crowd!
That tiny spark finally appeared!
Aurors rushed towards the crowd!
The people allowed the Aurors to drive them away and left obediently, but they gathered again further away!
What if they don’t gather together? They want to live!
The helpless Ministry of Magic compromised and started to find ways to distribute daily necessities, but the necessities were not enough!
Resentment is accumulating, and more and more shadows are beginning to stir~
Wraiths, Dementors, and all kinds of dark creatures smell a feast!
Kingsley can’t wait any longer! You’re forcing me to do this! Arrest all of these people!
The families of those poor people cried and begged!
Well, let them be reunited! In prison, just stay together and behave yourself!
Don’t dream of eating in prison. With so many people arrested, the Ministry of Magic can’t possibly have enough food to take care of them! Just fend for yourself. There is no room for you to breathe in this world. If you want to blame someone, you can only blame yourselves for being powerless and incompetent!
Ministry of Magic, give up on them!
But the resentment has not dissipated! Those who have the same fate as them still hope to survive!
A new round of looting, smashing and burning has begun!
This time, the helpless wand is pointed at those who are still alive!
Those who could survive became those who could not survive, resentment and despair became a plague that quickly spread throughout the city.
Sorry, we don’t want to go dark!
But we have to find a way to survive…
Just catch it!
We must live!
But when all the people who could survive become those who cannot survive, who are the ones left?
Finally, capital has started to act! What they need is profit! Not to be the target of attack! Since what they need is profit! Then there seems to be no need to hesitate about the following choice!
The consortium’s support has stopped!
Foreign cooperation has been suspended!
The media began to report extensively!
Kingsley’s reputation has plummeted to rock bottom!
The iron-fisted approach has become a joke! How can you be iron-fisted if you can’t be a dictator?
Faced with doubts, Kingsley slammed the table and said: “I am doing this to protect you!”
“What you are protecting is nothing but your pathetic rights!”
Quarrels do not mean a breakup! But external pressure and inner fear are enough to make people make wrong decisions!
Very good! Then I will show you how to be a dictator!
With so many secrets confirmed, Kingsley has lost his power and only death awaits him!
No one wants to die! Not a homeless person, not even the Minister of Magic!
Just when Kingsley used his army to forcibly wipe out the first tycoon who opposed him and took the profits for himself, sorry, he paid it into the national treasury, then!
The capitalists compromised! But they were also angry!
The horn of counterattack sounded at the same time!
No one wants to be the next target! Not even those who support Kingsley!
Kingsley’s previous promise is now worthless!
They don’t dare to gamble!
“What should we do?”
It seems that someone finally has an answer to Xiaopo’s question!
Professor McGonagall stepped forward and took in some of the politically persecuted and homeless elderly, weak, women and children!
Hogwarts has become the last piece of pure land in this hopeless society!
The DAs’ mockingjay photos were dug up again through some unknown channel!
Children have become pioneers in resisting oppression and fighting for freedom!
Finally! CG and Xiaopo’s reputation began to change among the people!
Facing death, no one wants to care about the so-called prophecy!
The premise of fear is that they are still alive! Since they have to face death, prophecy is selectively forgotten.
The inspiring stories of DAs are widely circulated in the market!
I don’t know who was the first to raise his fist! Fight for your own survival!
Suddenly, the crowd was excited!
The riot has begun! The flames of resistance are getting more and more intense!
Finally, when the first Auror sided with the people!
Kingsley’s high-handed rule has completely failed!
Laws are being revoked one after another! More and more people are being vindicated!
Capital quickly entered the market! Massive amounts of materials were generously sent out!
Finally, even the poor can survive!
Resume work, production and job!
Society is back on track!
Kingsley roared in the corner, trying to remind the poor that it was these capital hoarding and price gouging that led to your current situation!
But the sound can no longer be heard!
Even those who accidentally heard it deliberately chose to ignore it! The losers’ cry for truth is just their last gasp…
There is only one voice in today’s society! There can only be one voice!
Restore the economy and survive!
Professor McGonagall no longer rejects the media. In such an environment, people need some spiritual encouragement!
But for the sake of children’s normal learning, only a small number of interviews are allowed.
Of course, The Quibbler is not included.
Are you kidding me? How could The Quibbler be a media outlet that needs permission to get first-hand information? But The Quibbler just stopped at this moment!
Professor McGonagall turned on the news tap, but didn’t turn it off completely.
The media are scrambling for resources that should have been exclusively reserved for The Quibbler, and the public is eagerly awaiting the next issue of the report…
Ldun seemed to have become a desert in an instant, and the wild beasts in it were fighting frantically for the only remaining source of water.
Accompanied by Hermione, Xiaopo tells his own story!
The students added details of the legend and introduced the peace of the small broken magic!
Xiaopo is no longer the dark devil that everyone fears! He can finally stand on the stage and live a normal life!
“I feel like there’s some conspiracy going on!” Selena put down the Daily Prophet in her hand.
“I never thought that I, Hu, would have such a day!” Xiaopo took over, grinning foolishly as he looked at himself appearing on the front page of the news, muttering lines that he had forgotten where he heard them from, and thinking about how more and more people had started to greet him recently. He didn’t hear Selena’s sigh at all: “Will someone start asking me for an autograph someday? Am I considered a star among the sparks of fire?”
“You’re an orangutan!” Selena scolded angrily, “Don’t you feel like you’re being used? Don’t you feel like you’re being held by invisible hands next to a fire waiting to be lit?”
“Isn’t this your plan?” CG smiled and shook his head.
“Of course not!” Selena turned her head away: “How could I, Selena, gather such a huge pile of firewood? This is definitely a conspiracy!”
“Why? What makes you feel conspiracy?”
Hermione’s voice came from afar, and the sound of crunching snow was heard.
After their morning run, the three people sitting on the small garden bench quickly stood up and responded in unison: “Professor Granger.”
“It’s so cold, why don’t you enjoy the fireplace inside?” Hermione smiled and motioned for the three to sit down, then reached out to take a snowflake that had fallen from somewhere. “In an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent. Isn’t that right?”
“That being said,” Selena narrowed her eyes subconsciously and looked at Hermione, “But I always feel that we are being used! My plan is indeed to make everyone start to accept Little Broke! But it shouldn’t be, and it’s impossible, to make such a mess outside in such a short time! Could it be you, Professor Granger?”
“Thank you for thinking so highly of me!” Hermione replied with a smile, “But I really don’t have the ability to stir up such a big event!”
“The organization can’t do that either?” CG raised his head slightly. The sunlight after the snow was a little dazzling, and CG raised his hand subconsciously.
“No!” Hermione answered without any hesitation, “But I guess your choice might happen to lead you to the same path as the organization! Since you are the ones making trouble in the open, I think they will be happy to help you! Tell me, how does it feel to get a ride?”
“Very good!” Xiaopo replied with a silly smile. The sun shone on Xiaopo’s face, and that contagious silly smile seemed even brighter.
Hermione rubbed the little boy’s head!
“Is the organization so powerful?” Selena still didn’t quite believe it.
“Who knows?” Hermione shook her head gently and put her hands back into her pockets. The weather in December was still a little cold. “Do you know why the capital chose this time to support you?”
“Why?” Xiaopo asked with a silly smile.
“Because of the wind direction!” Hermione said softly, watching the Heramande grass summoned by CG floating to her side, and nodded with a smile: “Kingsley’s seemingly wise move is actually exhausting the resources! Capital is no longer a place where power can be taken at will! There was no choice before, but when Hogwarts chose to oppose Kingsley! They have a new direction! What’s more…”
Hermione checked, subconsciously closed her eyes, turned towards the sun, and felt the direction of the wind: “Now the wind is coming more and more from the east…”
“Although I don’t quite understand it, the general meaning is that Kingsley and his tyranny are about to end!” Xiaopo smiled foolishly.
“Idiot!” Selena rolled her eyes at Xiaopo. “Policies are policies! Tyranny and the like are adjectives added by the victors to the losers! It’s just that choosing Hogwarts is more advantageous than choosing Kingsley! And you just happened to stand on the side of Hogwarts…”
“Of course I’m on the side of Hogwarts, it’s not a coincidence!” Xiaopo obviously only understood the latter sentence.
Hermione smiled more brightly, but still sighed: “Capital always chooses profit! Maybe one day, they will abandon you again! So I suggest that you should use this time to do something good, little classmate.”
“Oh!” Xiaopo nodded, not quite understanding: “What can we do?”
“I heard that you are very popular in Hogwarts now! Those who were rescued by you and CG are very grateful to you, aren’t they? The members of the Slug Club are extraordinary!” Hermione reminded Little Bro. A snow-white owl flew across the sky. Hermione looked over and then looked back at Little Bro. “Okay, thank you for the Hermander grass, CG classmate, I’ll go back first.”
The crunching sound of stepping on snow sounded again!
“So, what should we do?” Looking at Hermione’s departing back, Xiaopo muttered the same question again. The battle in the dark night seemed to have happened a long time ago.
Chapter 45 Christmas Vacation (Old Version)
Two months, to be exact, not even two months, but to those outside Hogwarts, it was longer than a lifetime! Fortunately, they survived!
As the social situation gradually improves, the people taken in by Hogwarts are also slowly leaving!
When the last mother left Hogwarts with her child in her arms and tears in her eyes, the campus finally returned to peace!
Just as Hermione said, the students are paying more and more attention to Xiaopo and CG.
Including those who were rescued by the two in the Slug Club, and also those who were just heard from others…
After all, there are so many reports…
Genius! Misunderstood child! The two have more and more nicknames.
Professor McGonagall and Hermione finally stopped allowing the media to enter the campus for interviews!
As it happens, after sending away all the inmates, Hogwarts conducted a thorough investigation of all possible ways to enter the campus without permission.
As a result, The Quibbler sold even better! After all, this was the only channel to get first-hand news about the two!
But this didn’t make Selena much happier!
He attended a party and saved a bunch of people with great backgrounds! He had a fight late at night and found out a lot of the Ministry of Magic’s hands in Hogwarts! Professor McGonagall’s words destroyed Kingsley’s reputation! Kingsley’s one mistake caused such a big turmoil! DA Chennian’s small action was praised as a pioneer of the resistance!
Although saving everyone was just the result of Xiaopo and CG’s persistent habit; although Hogwarts’s tricks were just the residual poison of the Ministry of Magic over the years; although Professor McGonagall’s refusal just tore off Kingsley’s disguise of hypocrisy; although Kingsley’s mistake was just a mistake in a certain action; although DA’s mockingjay was just a small resistance; although all of this can be explained as the last straw that broke the camel’s back, but!
How do you explain the fact that all the straws fell in such a concentrated period of time? What? Is it raining straw again?!
Everything is too coincidental. The feeling of being used has never disappeared!
“It seems that you are the beneficiary of all this. While accepting gratitude and fame, you step to the front, raise your arms, and overthrow Kingsley and the Ministry of Magic who have always been at odds with you! Even Hogwarts and The Quibbler who benefited from it did not get as much as you, not to mention the organization that was hardly mentioned this time.” Selena circled around Xiaopo, squinting her eyes and constantly looking at Xiaopo: “If I didn’t really know that you are actually an idiot, I would definitely think that all this was done by you!”
Xiaopo waved his hands awkwardly and asked, “But what’s wrong with that?”
“I always feel like something is not right!” Selena couldn’t put it into words except for the feeling: “It seems that everything is going in the right direction, but I always feel like there are invisible strings holding everyone together, making them perform according to a pre-arranged script!”
“Come on!” Xiao Po retorted: “If there really is such a script, then what kind of people with such abilities can push all this forward? Anyway, the Ministry of Magic certainly can’t do it! As for the organization…”
“A divine bureau!” CG shook his head calmly: “Even the organization is useless!”
“Yeah! That’s why it’s scary, isn’t it?!” Selena looked terrified!
“Yeah, but so what?” Xiaopo held up the quill pen, “You won’t do your homework? Now that everything is back on track, if you can’t figure it out, don’t worry about it. After all, so much time has passed! For Christmas, how about being happy?”
“I really envy you!” Selena looked at Xiaopo helplessly.
“What do you envy me for?” asked Xiaopo, who did not remember much.
“Silly!” CG said as usual.
The three of them couldn’t help but laugh!
After laughing for a while, Selena talked about another thing: “How are you going to spend the Christmas holiday?”
“How else can I survive?” Xiaopo spread his hands and said, “I’ll just stay in school with CG.”
CG raised his head somewhat awkwardly.
“What’s wrong?” Xiaopo asked.
“I plan to leave Hogwarts this holiday.” CG said, “Like you always say, go out and relax, maybe I can cast the Patronus~”
“Are you still worried about not being able to use your Patronus? Don’t take it to heart.” Xiaopo comforted him, and then patted CG on the arm: “But I support you!”
Selena also looked at CG with a smile, happy that all three of them looked like normal children for the first time!
In the last few classes before the holiday, the professors did not teach anything new as usual.
Professor Xin was also happy about this: “Keep on boxing!”
“It’s already halfway through the semester!” The children complained, raising the question they had always asked: “Why can’t we teach you something new? Or learn Tai Chi like the DAs?”
“Sure!” Professor Xin replied lazily, “Beat me!”
Everyone was speechless! If I beat you, I’ll learn a new style of boxing? Are you kidding? If I beat you, you can graduate directly!
Looking at the helpless expressions of the children, Professor Xin knocked on the podium: “What are you thinking? I gave you a tablet and you only know how to study! Have you never played a game? What does the game say? You haven’t even killed a single monster, but you want to learn a skill book that only a big boss can drop? You are dreaming!”
Depend on!
Are you considered a small monster? Is boxing a very advanced skill book?
Besides, what’s there to complain about using a tablet to study? Are you encouraging us to play games on the tablet? Really? Really! ?
Can’t a professor be more serious?
Forget it, we thought too much! Serious? What a joke! If he was serious, he wouldn’t be Professor Xin!
“That’s enough! Just paddle hard! No, keep practicing!” Professor Xin scolded seriously.
“Why can DA learn!” A question was posted below!
“Go ask the DA!” Professor Xin roared impatiently!
then!
Following Xiaopo and CG, DA became popular again!
Suddenly, “Ask the DA!” seemed to become a standard answer!
If you have any questions you don’t know the answer to, you can just say, “Ask your DA!”
pity!
Selena said firmly: “Sorry, DA does not plan to expand its membership in the near future~”
“Why?!”
“Ask the DA!”
As time goes by, everything seems to be moving in a positive direction!
The Christmas holiday arrived peacefully as expected!
No movement of the bearded man, no news about Kingsley, and nothing bad happening again!
The Daily Prophet used a tiny corner to explain in simple words that the Ministry of Magic was following the procedures to initiate the impeachment process! They didn’t even want to waste words on who was being impeached! They had shown it with their actions, so what else could they say? Who else could be impeached now?
Then, the other pages are all about the prosperity of Ldun and the disasters abroad!
However, on the last night before the holiday, Selena urgently summoned all DAs and specifically read that comment: “There is news that if the impeachment process goes smoothly, Kingsley won’t even be able to wait until the next election!”
“Isn’t this good news?” Xiaopo asked doubtfully as he looked at Selena who put down the newspaper with a heavy face.
“Not necessarily!” Selena replied very seriously.
“How could that be?” Winice looked at Selena in confusion.
“How could Kingsley do nothing?” Selena asked back.
“What else can he do?” Jaina said with disdain.
“For example…” Selena was silent, hesitating whether to speak: “Fight to the death! If there is no Hogwarts, he will still be the Minister!”
“I don’t think he dares!” Albus shouted, slamming the table.
“At this point, is there anything he dare not do?” Selena turned her head to look at Albus.
“Even if there is no Hogwarts, there are still other people, even that organization!” Scorpius raised his head: “Since there is the first Professor McGonagall, there must be other Professor McGonagalls after her!”
“What are you talking about, Scorpius…” Albus obviously hadn’t reacted yet.
“The organization…” CG hesitated, pointed at the newspaper, and subconsciously looked at Professor Xin. Finally, he decided to speak out: “Maybe they are too busy to handle it! Earthquake! Tsunami! Plague! War! I don’t think these are coincidences! And the attitude of the East has never been clear…”
Professor Xin was concentrating on the game on his tablet and had no intention of responding.
“That’s why I’m worried!” Selena rolled her eyes at Professor Xin and took over CG’s words, her tone becoming heavier: “If Professor McGonagall falls, there may not be a new Professor McGonagall standing up…”
“He dares to touch Hogwarts?” Lily asked in surprise, then covered her mouth!
“There’s nothing to be afraid of!” Selena looked at Lily helplessly. “What if the ones who rushed into Hogwarts and fought with us last time were not Aurors, but the Inspectorate? Maybe we really wouldn’t be able to hold on until the organization’s global live broadcast!”
silence!
For a moment, the entire Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom fell silent!
“So what?” Professor Xin tapped the gray tablet screen impatiently.
“So!” Selena took a deep breath: “This Christmas, I hope everyone can stay in Hogwarts! After all, Hogwarts is the safest place!”
“You mean the protection of Hogwarts? Organization and oriental stuff, so long-winded!” Professor Xin directly exposed Selena’s euphemism, put down the tablet in his hand, picked up the wine flask and took a sip, then put it on the table with a bang: “What are you afraid of! If you want to fight, I’m here!”
The aroma of alcohol filled the air, and this spicy taste seemed to be more effective than the patronus!
Just a moment!
“Where does she get her confidence from?”
“Hahaha!”
“As expected of you!”
“Professor Xin is beyond help!”
“Someone take her to St. Mungo’s to have her brain checked!”
The troubled atmosphere seems to have been swept away!
Xiaopo smiled foolishly, muttering silently in his heart: “There is also me!”
The holiday finally came! The kids finally left!
Selena chose to stay, and CG embarked on his journey to find his patron saint…
Xiaopo received a lot of gifts! From friends, classmates, DA, Slug Club, and even from outside the school, those who were encouraged by Xiaopo’s deeds, survived two months of darkness, and regained their lives…
After all, Xiaopo encouraged them and Xiaopo saved them!
Looking at the messages filled with overflowing gratitude, and seeing the elves who came specially to prevent Xiaopo from being troubled by too many gifts, Xiaopo suddenly felt a little excited!
It turns out that life can be like this!
“Do you want to open them, sir?” the elf asked politely. “We have checked them and there is nothing wrong with the gifts! I really envy you, sir, for having so many friends send you gifts!”
Xiaopo nodded excitedly. The elf waved his fingers, and big and small packages of gifts flew in the air. They were unpacked and neatly stacked beside Xiaopo’s bed!
After asking the elves if they needed clothes, Xiaopo took out a few boxes of candy according to the elves’ opinions, distributed them to the elves, and asked them to take them to their companions!
“Thank you for your generosity and Merry Christmas~”
The elf bowed with tears in his eyes, and with a snap of his fingers, he disappeared on the spot.
Xiaopo himself, with a silly grin on his face, rummaged through the box, pulled out two gifts that had already been wrapped, quickly put on his clothes, and rushed out the door!
Chapter 46: Gunpowder Dumplings~ (Old Version)
Xiaopo found Selena having breakfast in the auditorium and gave her his gift!
What Xiaopo prepared was a weather balloon. Selena asked Xiaopo in surprise what kind of magic was inside. Xiaopo scratched his head and replied helplessly that it was just a toy for Muggles!
“Muggles are so smart!” Selena exclaimed as she stared at the weather balloon.
What Selena prepared for Xiaopo was a box of wizard chess!
“This is the kind of chess Harry Potter and his friends play, wizard chess!”
Xiaopo said in surprise, and then he realized with some embarrassment, what about chess? He obviously only knows how to play Gobang, right? !
“Don’t like it?” Selena looked at Xiaopo and stretched out her hand to take it back: “I’ll give you another one!”
“No way!” Xiaopo took the wizard chess behind him with a silly smile on his face.
Just kidding! I missed so many gifts last Christmas! Don’t miss any gifts this Christmas!
“I’m going to see Professor Xin, take your time eating!” Xiaopo put the wizard chess into his pocket, hugged another gift, turned around and left!
Selena quickly stuffed the last bit of bread into her mouth: “Wait, I’ll go too!”
Walking out of the castle, through the garden, stepping on the thick snow, Xiaopo and Selena walked towards the cottage next to the forbidden forest.
“Tell me,” Xiao Po looked at the forbidden forest with lingering fear, “Will there be another problem?”
“Don’t be such a pessimist! It’s Christmas!” Selena gave Little Po an unhappy look, but still subconsciously touched the wand in her pocket.
Yes, it’s Christmas, but what Christmas is it without something happening?!
It seemed as if to verify the two people’s thoughts!
With a loud bang, the door of the cabin suddenly opened!
Thick black smoke drifted out of the hut!
Xiaopo and Selena quickly drew out their wands!
Professor Xin staggered out of the hut, coughing continuously!
Professor Xin cursed, took a deep breath, and rushed in again!
Xiaopo and Selena looked at each other, then rushed forward with their wands raised!
As a result, he caught Professor Xin who was staggering out.
Professor Xin, with a face full of black and gray, coughed violently, glanced at the two of them, and without saying a word, reached out and snatched Xiaopo’s wand! Then he turned around and rushed towards the hut!
Xiaopo was unable to react for a moment, and with an ominous feeling coming over him, he looked towards the forbidden forest!
Sure enough, there were strange rustling noises coming from the forbidden forest again!
The chaotic and heavy footsteps kept approaching the two of them!
“No way!” Xiaopo swallowed his saliva, and the black and red magic instantly ignited on Xiaopo’s shoulders: “Can’t people just spend a peaceful Christmas?!”
“Shut up!” Selena shouted, pointing her wand forward: “Who! Come out!”
“It’s me! It’s me!”
As the voice came, the mountain-like figure staggered in front of the two of them!
Xiaopo and Selena felt relieved at once.
Fortunately, it was Hagrid! Just Hagrid! Hagrid covered in leaves and sticks!
“Um, are you okay, Professor…” Hagrid put away his magic and looked at Hagrid.
“It’s okay, it’s okay, it turns out it’s you two. How are you, is the new school year going?”
Hagrid said with a smile, trying to brush the fallen leaves off his body with his hands, but with such big hands, it was hard to tell whether there were more leaves being brushed off or more branches being broken on his body.
“Are you sure?” Selena put away her wand and asked with some concern.
“Sure, sure.” Hagrid smiled and walked up to the two of them. “I came back to see my friends in the Forbidden Forest. They, you know, are a little too enthusiastic. What are you doing here?”
Xiaopo slapped his forehead, and the black and red flames attached to his shoulders again!
How could I forget Professor Xin!
Hagrid was obviously frightened by Little Broken’s appearance!
“You are…”
“Professor Hagrid, come help!”
Xiaopo shouted loudly and was about to rush towards the wooden door of the hut!
The door suddenly opened!
After the black smoke, Professor Xin stood at the door with a dignified look, and was about to take a breath of fresh air when he saw Xiaopo flying over!
Professor Xin frowned, raised his hand and used the Lan Que Wei move!
“Oh my god! So that’s how it’s used!”
Xiaopo let out a low cry and was thrown aside by Professor Xin!
“You’re destroying the house!” Professor Xin cursed!
Xiaopo slid 5 meters on the snow before he stopped!
“We are here to save you, okay?” Xiaopo complained dissatisfiedly, walking back while shaking off the snow on his body.
“What’s wrong with you?” Selena narrowed her eyes and looked at Professor Xin.
“It’s okay, it’s okay,” Professor Xin answered in the same sentence as Hagrid: “It’s a holiday, let’s make some dumplings!”
“Make, dumplings?” Xiao Po repeated word by word as he looked at the black smoke still coming out.
“Well, let’s not talk about this anymore!” Professor Xin handed the wand back to Xiao Po and looked at Hagrid beside him: “Hagrid, why are you back? Didn’t you say you were going to France?”
“Olym had other things to do temporarily. As you know, Country F is in chaos, so the trip was cancelled.” Hagrid looked a little disappointed, but soon replaced it with a smile and raised his head: “But it’s okay, I can just spend Christmas with Grawp and visit old friends in the Forbidden Forest. I heard from Headmistress McGonagall that the centaurs have been restless recently! I think I need to come back to catch up with them!”
“Your way of reminiscing is by wrestling?” Selena picked off a large piece of leaves from Hagrid’s body, held it in her hand, and asked uncertainly.
Hagrid coughed loudly to cover up his embarrassment: “Aha, well, okay, if there’s nothing else, I won’t bother you anymore. I have to go back. Do you want to come with me? You can meet Grawp. He hasn’t seen a new friend for a long time.”
“I think, let’s forget it…” Selena shook her head and blinked at Xiaopo.
Xiaopo was a little confused. Grawp! That was a real giant! Xiaopo had never seen a giant in person!
However, since you blinked, I will agree to it reluctantly!
Xiaopo muttered to himself, grinning foolishly and shaking his head: “Forget it today, but say hello to him for us!”
“Sure!” Hagrid smiled and waved his big hands. Just as he was about to leave, he turned back and kept rummaging in his sack-sized pockets: “I almost forgot about the Christmas present. I didn’t prepare any special ones, but…”
“It’s okay, no need to bother~” Xiaopo said considerately.
“Don’t be silly!” Hagrid looked at Little Broken and said with a smile, “It’s Christmas! How can Christmas be without presents! Aha, here it is!”
Hagrid took out a bag of rock biscuits from his pocket, opened the bag, and gave one to each of Little Brontë, Selena, and Professor Xin!
Professor Xin turned back to the house and brought out two plates of steaming dumplings as a return gift!
Selena cast a bubble spell on the dumplings: “This way you don’t have to worry about getting them dirty.”
“Give my regards to Grawp too!” said Professor Shin, and stuffed a bottle of wine that looked very familiar to Hagrid into his pocket.
Um, could it be Uncle Fatty’s Erguotou?
“I will, you are so kind.” Hagrid said to the three people excitedly, but his voice was so loud that it sounded like he was shouting: “Thank you, Merry Christmas!”
Xiaopo resisted the urge to cover his ears and waved to Hagrid who had already turned and left: “Merry Christmas~”
“Good guy~”
Hagrid kept chattering as he walked further and further away.
Xiaopo gave the wine he asked Hermione to buy to Professor Xin.
Professor Xin unpacked the bottle, unscrewed the cap, and smelled it: “Wow, I didn’t realize it’s good! You have good taste!”
Xiaopo smiled foolishly and scratched his head.
Selena handed Professor Xin a flat box very proudly.
“What’s this?” Professor Xin opened the box in front of Selena and looked at the hairpin inside with some uncertainty: “Is it for me?”
“Nonsense!” Selena crossed her arms over her chest!
Professor Xin grabbed his hair which was as messy as steel needles and asked, “Are you sure?”
“Do you want love?” Selena said unhappily.
“Okay!” Professor Xin sighed helplessly, stood between the two, and put his hands on Xiaopo and Selena’s shoulders: “Since you both gave me gifts, I will reluctantly play with you for a while! How about making dumplings together?”
“Are you really making dumplings?” Xiaopo asked in surprise.
“Nonsense!” Professor Xin scolded angrily, “Otherwise, were those two plates you gave to Hagrid just now conjured up by you?”
“This is the first time I’ve heard that making dumplings would fill the house with black smoke…” Selena rolled her eyes at Professor Xin.
“Hahaha, just a small mistake.” Professor Xin replied with a smile, pushing the two of them into the house.
“A mistake?” Xiaopo repeated uncertainly.
“Small mistake!” Professor Xin said with certainty, “I mistook gunpowder for five-spice powder. Hahahaha!”
Is this a small mistake?
Xiaopo was speechless. There were so many things to complain about that he didn’t know where to start!
Who would mistake gunpowder for allspice!
And, it really exploded!
“You are worthy of it!” Xiaopo raised his thumb high. If this was a live broadcast, Xiaopo would give Professor Xin a full screen of likes!
“Wait a minute!” Selena suddenly stopped!
“how?”
Professor Xin and Xiaopo looked at Selena together?
“In other words!” Selena said thoughtfully, “The two plates of dumplings that Professor Hagrid just took away were filled with gunpowder?”
“What the hell is gunpowder filling?” Xiaopo shouted loudly!
“If it’s giant blood,” Professor Xin let go of Selena and scratched his head: “It should be fine!”
“What the hell is that supposed to be fine? Wait, does that mean it’s really filled with gunpowder?”
Xiaopo suddenly had an urge to leave again!
Is it too late to leave now?
As if he heard Xiaopo’s inner struggle, Professor Xin closed the door!
“It’s okay, we’ll pack a new one!”
“Let me out…”
Chapter 47 Professor Xin is Poisoned 1 (Old Version)
The shouts of Little Po passed through the cottage and floated over Hogwarts, adding a different touch of color to Christmas.
Fortunately, what came out of the hut later was just smoke from cooking, and Xiaopo didn’t really get to eat any strange dumplings.
Yes, the gunpowder is already packed, so there can’t be C4 filling~
The Christmas dinner was still very sumptuous. The professors and children who did not go back gathered around a long table and enjoyed the food prepared by the elves.
Professor Xin didn’t come. I guess he drank too much at noon…
But none of this matters. What matters is that nothing bad really happened this Christmas!
The joyful atmosphere lasted until midnight, and Xiaopo lay on the bed, enjoying the rare, peaceful time!
“That’s great!”
Xiaopo stretched leisurely and fell asleep unknowingly.
This time, Xiaopo slept very soundly. In his dream, Xiaopo seemed to have been to many places, including mountains, sea, and scenery.
The beautiful cliffs, the waves crashing on the shore, the towering castle, and the magic reaching into the clouds!
Beautiful pictures, magnificent mountains and rivers~
Xiaopo gallops and flies in between~
When I opened my eyes again, it was already daybreak. The warm sunlight shone through the castle window and fell on my little face.
The holiday is great. It feels so good to sleep until you wake up naturally.
Wait, did I forget something?
Xiaopo thought about it very seriously!
Forget it, never mind, it’s Christmas holiday!
Xiaopo turned over in bed and closed his eyes again!
Xiao Xiaopo fluttered his wings and flew in from the owl tunnel. He gently placed the red envelope in his mouth next to Xiaopo’s pillow and kicked Xiaopo with his foot. His movements were very gentle, as if he was afraid of waking Xiaopo up. Then he gently flew to CG’s bed and hid behind the pillar…
A wisp of white smoke rose from the small, broken pillow.
Xiaopo put on his glasses in confusion, and suddenly! Selena’s hysterical roar rang out in the dormitory!
“Hu Xiaopo! What are you thinking? Where is the morning exercise we agreed on? It’s fine that that crazy woman didn’t come, but how dare you stand me up! Do you know what it feels like to run circles and do boxing in the snow by yourself? Remember, I will let you know tomorrow! I said! I’ll give you five minutes from now and show up at the library. I promise not to beat you to death! Otherwise! You’ll have to spend your Christmas vacation in the school infirmary! Ah! Ahhhh! I’m so mad!”
It was not until the roaring letter turned into a ball of fire that Xiao Xiaopo dared to stick his head out from behind the bedpost.
He tilted his head and looked at Xiaopo, and there seemed to be a smile in his eyes~
Xiaopo didn’t have time to pay attention to Xiaoxiaopo, because in the end, Xiaopo was very sure that he had heard the sound of book tearing!
That’s a library! Madam Pince’s library!
This is bad! This is very bad!
Xiao Pofeng put on his clothes and rushed to the library!
“Hu Xiaopo!” Madam Pince roared and grabbed Hu Xiaopo’s cloak collar. “How dare you? Each of these books is older than you! Come on, follow me to see Professor Granger! This is outrageous, outrageous! Don’t explain, I won’t listen! Follow me!”
Selena, who had disappeared, suddenly rushed out from the corner!
Xiaopo looked at Selena with gratitude as she pushed Madam Pince’s hand away!
“Follow me now!” Selena shouted seriously, pulling Xiaopo forward!
“You actually came back to save me?” Xiaopo said while running.
“Stop right there!” Madam Pince’s roaring voice came from behind: “Don’t think you can get away like this! I will go find Professor Granger myself! You can’t run away! Stop!”
“Ask Professor Granger to come to Professor Xin’s cabin!” Selena turned her head and shouted solemnly to Mrs. Pings.
Madam Pings was stunned and stopped, looking at the torn pages of the book in her hand, and was a little unable to react for a moment!
“What’s going on?” Xiaopo also realized that something seemed wrong and asked in surprise!
“Something’s wrong!” Selena continued to run quickly without stopping: “I should have thought of it earlier! Professor Xin has been gone for too long!”
“What do you mean it disappeared for too long?” Xiaopo still didn’t quite understand!
“She’s been gone for too long!” Selena shouted anxiously, “After she agreed to join us for morning exercises, why didn’t she attend? And how could she spend the Christmas dinner alone in the cabin?”
“Maybe she drank too much, or maybe there was something else?” Xiaopo explained, but he had a bad feeling in his heart.
“Idiot?!” Selena cursed, trying hard to calm down: “When have you ever seen her really drunk? When have you ever seen her really delay work!”
“You mean?”
Xiaopo quickly quickened his pace. Thanks to the two semesters of early classes, Xiaopo and Selena were running really fast now! As they were talking, the two of them had already appeared outside the castle gate!
Selena stopped suddenly, and although she had expected it, she still pointed in the direction of Professor Xin’s cabin with a look of surprise!
There, no smoke!
“Something happened!”
“What’s going on?!” Xiaopo yelled and rushed towards the cabin!
Selena followed closely behind!
“Professor Xin! Professor Xin! Open the door!”
Arrived at the door of the cabin!
Xiaopo knocked hard on the door!
“Get out of the way!”
Selena yelled, her wand already raised in front of her!
Just at the moment when Xiaopo moved out of the way!
Selena used her magic and the door of the cottage opened!
Xiaopo didn’t hesitate any longer and rushed in first, and saw Professor Xin lying on the ground at a glance!
Xiaopo quickly stepped forward and turned Professor Xin over!
“It’s so heavy!” Xiaopo muttered to himself, and the ominous feeling came over him again!
Outside the door, there was a whoosh and a flaming signal shot up into the sky! Selena finished and rushed in!
The two of them worked together to turn Professor Xin over!
Fortunately, there was no blood and no scars!
But when Selena took out her small mirror and placed it under Professor Xin’s nose, there was no mist at all on the smooth mirror surface!
Selena sat down on the ground and the mirror slipped to the side!
Professor Xin is no longer breathing!
Xiao Po roared and pressed his fingers on Professor Xin’s neck! No beating, no pulse!
Professor Xin is dead?
Not yet, at least not yet!
The body didn’t get cold or stiff!
There’s still time!
Xiaopo stared and shouted angrily!
Selena reacted immediately and rushed out the door like a fly!
“I’ll go get some help!”
Looking at Selena rushing out, Xiaopo slapped himself hard and forced himself to calm down!
Do something, you must do something!
CPR!
right!
first aid!
Even though he’s a wizard, he’s still a human being after all!
We have to let Professor Xin recover his breathing quickly!
Xiao Po didn’t hesitate any longer. He knelt beside Professor Xin, overlapped his hands, and used the weight of his upper body to press hard on Professor Xin’s chest!
Once, once, and again…
Every time he pressed hard, Xiaopo hoped that Professor Xin would let out a long breath, but how could the plot in the novel happen so easily in reality!
3 minutes have passed! 5 minutes have passed!
Xiaopo felt that his whole body was exhausted, but he still persisted!
“Wake up!” Xiaopo shouted loudly: “Is there anyone who can help me!?”
“Classmate Xiao Ai is always here!” The electronic prompt sound suddenly sounded!
Xiaopo looked at Professor Xin’s tablet on the bed in surprise which suddenly lit up!
“How can I help you?”
The electronic prompt sounded again, and the projection of the artificial intelligence assistant Xiao Ai stood next to Xiao Po!
“Help me!” The little robot kept pressing the buttons and excitedly shouted at the virtual figure in front of it!
“Okay!” Xiao Ai replied with a smile and began to scan Professor Xin and Xiao Po: “Based on the current situation, Xiao Ai recommends that you stop and rest! Your physical strength will be exhausted in about 8 minutes!”
“Nonsense!” Xiaopo raised his head and glared at the AI, pressing his hands continuously: “What should we do, Professor Xin?”
“Professor Xin’s vital signs have disappeared. It is recommended that…” the cold electronic signal continued.
“Shut up!” Xiaopo roared!
Chapter 47 Professor Xin is Poisoned 2 (Old Version)
No, Professor Xin will not die! How could it be! Impossible!
“Okay!” Xiao Ai calmed down obediently and stood aside!
“Fuck you,” Xiaopo cursed angrily, “What suggestions are you making? Just tell me now!”
“It is recommended to use magic for emergency treatment. The protective spell and the heart-strengthening spell should be okay!” Xiao Ai used projection to show the detailed explanation and description of the two magics!
Looking at the magic in front of him, Xiaopo cursed angrily, is this magic that a second-year student can master? ! Even Hermione Granger may not be able to master this kind of professional magic!
“Pomfrey! Madam Pomfrey!” The little broken hand continued to move: “Selena went to look for her. How long will it take for her to come?”
Xiao Ai looked in the direction of the school infirmary, as if she could see through the wooden walls of the cabin: “According to calculations, Selena and Madam Pomfrey will arrive in 3 minutes. Professor Granger will arrive in 7 minutes.”
Xiao Po felt a little relieved: “What can I do now?”
“Rest!” Xiao Ai answered decisively!
“Can’t you just talk like a human being?” Xiao Po was so angry that he cursed: “In this situation, is it possible to just leave Professor Xin alone?”
“Then you should use magic! Instead of brute force!” Xiao Ai analyzed in an orderly manner.
“I said, I can’t!” Xiao Po roared, and the feeling of powerlessness came over him again!
“Simply injecting magic power to maintain life is also effective!” Xiao Ai replied.
“Really?” Xiaopo raised his head excitedly!
“Really!” Xiao Ai nodded: “With your magic power, it’s possible!”
“Tell me what to do!” Xiaopo quickly stopped and asked.
“Inject magic power!” Xiao Ai repeated.
“I know! I’m asking how to do it!” Xiaopo asked anxiously. What the hell is this artificial intelligence? It’s more like artificial idiocy!
“I want to!” Xiao Ai said.
“F*ck me!”
Xiaopo was about to curse when he suddenly remembered that this was what Professor Xin said half a semester ago!
How could I forget this!
Xiaopo quickly closed his eyes and entered a meditative state!
Xiao Ai was sensible and put away all the projections, including her own!
The cabin suddenly became quiet!
The sound of the wind outside the door was still there, but Xiaopo turned a deaf ear to it. He placed his hand on Professor Xin’s chest, concentrating all his mind on his heart, searching for the purest magic!
With a whoosh!
The black and red magic was awakened first, and instantly attached to Xiaopo’s shoulders, like a ball of flame, steaming and burning behind Xiaopo!
Xiaopo frowned slightly! This kind of magic power is absolutely not possible!
But this time!
Xiaopo was not anxious, did not complain, and still kept his eyes closed!
“help me!”
Xiaopo said softly.
As soon as the words fell, the black and red flames seemed to have received an order! All colors faded instantly!
Serene as water! Peaceful and tranquil!
The transparent magic power flowed like a trickle from Xiaopo’s palm into Professor Xin’s heart!
Through the feedback of magic, Xiaopo clearly felt the only remaining warmth in Professor Xin’s heart!
Xiaopo frowned slightly, and clenched his magic-infused hands gently. The magic power gathered in his palms, as if that was Professor Xin’s stopped heart!
“What should I do? Didn’t we say that I can just inject magic power into it?”
No one answered, Xiao Ai seemed to have completely turned herself off at this moment!
A hint of black and red slowly emerged, and Xiaopo turned his head away in dissatisfaction!
The black and red faded away, but Professor Xin still showed no improvement!
What should we do?
Why wasn’t Madam Pomfrey here yet? Was three minutes really that long?
His palms tightened subconsciously, and Xiaopo opened his eyes nervously, only then he noticed that his palms were shaking!
Xiaopo quickly grasped his wrist with his other hand!
Hold on! Hold on! That’s Professor Xin’s heart!
“Stop it!”
Xiaopo yelled anxiously! He bit his lips and forced himself to calm down!
It hurts! It hurts so much!
A trace of crimson flowed from the corner of Xiaopo’s mouth!
The shaking hand finally returned to normal! Xiaopo carefully relaxed his palm!
It was at this moment that Xiaopo clearly felt the powerful waves coming from the magic!
“cough!”
Take a deep breath!
“It hurts so much!”
Professor Xin’s voice rang out in the cabin!
Xiaopo looked at the sloppy woman in front of him excitedly, and immediately met Professor Xin’s malicious eyes!
“You,” Professor Xin narrowed his eyes, looked at Xiaopo, and then looked at the palm on his chest: “What are you doing? And, bleeding…”
“Professor Xin!” Xiaopo called out excitedly, then cursed and pulled his hand back abruptly: “Professor Xin, you misunderstood!”
“I will destroy you!”
Professor Xin’s face turned red and he struggled to get up!
But Professor Xin couldn’t get up because of the severe pain all over his body: “Come and help me up!”
Xiaopo walked over carefully and helped Professor Xin lean on the chair next to him.
“Gently! Gently!” Professor Xin covered his chest and roared with his hands bared.
“Are you okay?” Xiaopo asked tentatively.
“I won’t die!” Professor Xin reached for his waist and asked, “Where’s my wine jug?”
Xiaopo looked around and took the flagon from the bed: “Let’s not drink yet, Madam Pomfrey will be here soon.”
“You know shit!” Professor Xin cursed as he snatched the wine flask, gulped down a few mouthfuls, frowned and put it down: “Can’t you cure it? What kind of poison is this? It’s so powerful!”
“Can your wine detoxify?” Xiao Po looked at Professor Xin in surprise.
Professor Xin felt the condition of his body and asked: “You saved me?”
“And me!” Xiao Ai’s voice came from the tablet.
“Shut up!” Professor Xin scolded.
“Oh!” Xiao Ai’s aggrieved voice sounded, and then Xiao Po heard the sound of the tablet turning off!
This artificial intelligence has a bad temper?
Xiaopo looked at Professor Xin speechlessly, then looked at the tablet. What a pair of funny people!
“Little Po! Little Po!” Selena’s voice sounded outside the door!
Xiaopo rushed out to greet them: “Selena, Madam Pomfrey, quick!”
“I’m here, coming!” Madam Pomfrey was a little out of breath and walked in quickly carrying a medicine box.
Seeing Professor Xin sitting up, Selena and Madam Pomfrey finally felt relieved.
After a brief inspection, Madam Pomfrey frowned deeply.
Hermione arrived, took a look at the situation and stood silently by.
Madam Pomfrey took out her wand, drew a little blood from Professor Xin’s fingertips, and dripped it into a test tube containing an unknown liquid.
Xiaopo and Selena stared at the transparent liquid without blinking, but there seemed to be no change in the transparent test tube…
“This… is poisoning?” Xiaopo asked tentatively.
“Idiot!” Selena cursed, “What you should really care about is what kind of poison it is!”
Little Bro nodded, and everyone’s eyes turned to Madam Pomfrey.
Madam Pomfrey shook her head and sealed the test tube. “I don’t know either. Let’s give it to Professor Schlaghorn to take a look.”
Hermione took the test tube, frowned, and looked at Professor Xin: “Do you know how the poison came about?”
The first thing Xiaopo thought of was dumplings stuffed with gunpowder! Then he quickly drove the thought out of his mind!
Hey! Professor Xin, please be more careful!
Professor Xin smiled and shook his head without saying anything.
Madam Pomfrey said, “Let’s go to the school infirmary first! Although I can’t help you detoxify, I can see if there are any other ways.”
At this moment! A cold voice sounded from outside the door!
“I suggest you don’t go anywhere!”
Chapter 48 H53NB47 (Old Version)
A figure is standing at the door!
Dark skin, familiar robe!
Having fought so many times, Xiaopo will never admit his mistake!
Kingsley stood straight at the door!
“Kingsley? Ministry of Magic?” Selena’s face turned pale and she muttered in a low voice.
Sure enough! Sure enough! The poisoning was not caused by the dumplings stuffed with gunpowder!
After all, it’s still the Ministry of Magic!
“What did you do?”
The black and red magic soared high above Xiaopo’s shoulders. Xiaopo roared angrily, pulled out his wand and pointed it at Kingsley!
Kingsley raised the corner of his mouth slightly, sneered and was about to raise his hand!
“Stop!” Hermione stopped in front of Xiaopo and shouted, “Is it you?!”
“Of course not!” Kingsley calmly shook his robe!
“Do you think we will believe it?” Xiaopo shouted unwillingly.
“Whatever you say!” Kingsley glared at Little Po, then looked at Hermione: “Believe me, I didn’t want to come, but I heard that someone here was poisoned.”
“It’s okay now!” Professor Xin stood up with the help of Selena: “I’m fine!”
Madam Pomfrey hurried over to support the trembling Professor Sheen.
“You call this good?” Kingsley glanced at them mockingly. “I don’t care whether you live or die, really. But as the saying goes, diplomacy is no small matter, so please follow me and cooperate with the investigation. After all, we have to give an explanation to Party Z. What do you say, Professor Granger?”
“Dream on!” Xiao Po yelled, but was pulled back by Professor Xin.
“What right do you have to take me away?” Professor Xin came forward with the help of Selena and Madam Pomfrey. “You also said that diplomatic affairs should naturally be handled by our consulate. What do you think?”
“Of course!” Kingsley said with a wry smile, “But everyone else, follow me!”
Hermione took a step forward and stopped in front of Kingsley: “Sorry, I also want to ask, have you really thought about it?”
“Granger,” Kingsley said with a smug look on his face, turning sideways so that the people inside could see the dense crowds of people outside the hut. “Of course I have thought about it. What do you think?”
Looking at the figures outside, Selena gasped!
“Inspection Department?” Xiaopo asked softly.
Selena nodded and added, “Everyone!”
“Let’s fight?!” Xiaopo clenched his fists and asked in a low voice.
“Hahahaha!” Kingsley finally heard it and laughed almost crazily: “Fight! Why do you deserve that?!”
Kingsley drew out his wand, and the magic waves dissipated instantly!
Professor Xin took a step forward and Hermione raised her hands!
The two of them blocked the surging magic power together! The magic power converged, and the shock wave directly shattered the window of the cabin!
“Pay attention to your identity, Kingsley!” Hermione shouted coldly, “Don’t you think you have enough scandals?”
“So what?” Kingsley glared at Hermione. He didn’t believe that Hermione had no involvement in the past few months. “Now! I am still the Minister of Magic! As the Minister of Magic, I order you to cooperate with the investigation! Otherwise!”
“Come on!” Xiaopo roared, and the black and red magic behind him roared and rolled!
“Otherwise!” Kingsley narrowed his eyes: “I will let you see how powerful the Inspectorate really is!”
“Enough!” Hermione raised her hand to stop Kingsley!
Kingsley pushed Hermione away: “Granger, I’m warning you!”
“What do you want to warn?”
A majestic voice sounded outside the door! Then there was a commotion! Professor McGonagall hurried over with the few professors who were still in the school!
“Minister!” Professor McGonagall stepped into the hut and said, “I would like to ask, how did so many people, including you, enter Hogwarts without permission?”
“You don’t need to know this!” Kingsley turned to look at Professor McGonagall, then squinted at Hermione: “We will leave soon, unless someone refuses to cooperate!”
“Cooperate with what?” Professor Xin silently tied her hair behind her head.
“Cooperate with the investigation of the poisoning incident!” Kingsley said coldly, “It’s not common to find a poison that can knock you out, right?”
“Who said I was poisoned?” Professor Xin said with all his strength, letting go of Selena and Madam Pomfrey, and walked up to Kingsley: “Can’t I just eat something wrong?”
“Okay!” Kingsley stared at Professor Xin: “But diplomacy…”
Professor Xin said impatiently, reaching his hand to the side, and the tablet flew over obediently. Professor Xin stared at Kingsley, his fingers tapping on the screen quickly.
After the familiar video call sound, an emotionless electronic sound rang out.
“Encrypted communication channel, please enter the identification code!”
Professor Xin pressed his hand on the screen with an expressionless face. The scanning light swept across and the electronic voice sounded again: “Passed. You will be transferred to the special assistant in 3 seconds! 3, 2, 1!”
“Who is looking for me?”
A man in a neat military uniform appears on the screen!
Professor Xin held up the screen and pressed it in front of Kingsley’s face!
Kingsley took a half step back, threw his cloak angrily, and turned aside.
“Me!” Professor Xin answered coldly!
The man in military uniform was obviously stunned, then smiled and said, “Please speak!”
“I ate something bad and it seems I’m poisoned! What should I do?” Professor Xin repeated impatiently.
The man in military uniform thought for half a second: “I will send a special team of five people to deal with this matter!”
“no!”
Professor Shin and Kingsley said almost at the same time.
“Any questions, Minister Kingsley?” the man in military uniform replied politely.
“I remind you,” Kingsley looked at the screen with a bad face, “You have no law enforcement authority here!”
“You misunderstood, Minister Kingsley.” The man in military uniform continued to answer politely: “We just sent someone to check on Academician Xin’s physical condition.”
“That won’t do either. Don’t come and cause trouble for me until this matter is thoroughly investigated!” Kingsley suppressed his anger.
“Minister Kingsley!” The man in military uniform said in a tougher tone, “I don’t think it’s necessary to mobilize so many troops! We are returning the Inspectorate to you not in the hope of…”
“Enough!” Kingsley interrupted sharply, staring at the man in military uniform on the screen: “Mobilize a large number of troops? H53NB47 biological agent! Is it possible to do this without mobilizing a large number of troops?”
“H53NB47?” The man in military uniform looked gloomy and repeated solemnly, “Are you sure?!”
“Of course!” Kingsley squinted and stared at the screen. “I’m very curious! How did this military poison, which only has a number but no name, appear here?”
The man in military uniform groaned, his voice suddenly cut off, and he quickly replied: “In that case, we agree with your action.”
“Very good!” Kingsley nodded with satisfaction!
“Hey!” Professor Xin slapped the screen. “What are you thinking? Who was that just now? Did the old man agree? You decide!”
“I agree!” An old voice came from outside the screen.
Professor Xin suddenly became quiet and cursed silently.
Kingsley rolled his eyes at Professor Xin, looked at the others smugly, and raised his right hand: “Inspectorate!”
“Wait!” Hermione suddenly stood up: “One last question! How do you know it’s H53NB47?”
Chapter 49 We’ll Follow You! (Old Version)
“One last question! How do you know it’s H53NB47?”
“How should I know?” Kingsley sneered, “I really want to tell you, really! But next time, when you are locked up in jail, I will definitely tell you! Now…”
“Kingsley Shacklebolt!”
Professor McGonagall looked at Kingsley majestically, with her hands clasped tightly together in her sleeves, maintaining the last bit of restraint!
Kingsley put away the smugness on his face and turned to look at Professor McGonagall!
“I don’t want to remind you again and again!” Professor McGonagall said majestically: “I don’t mind reporting your actions…”
“Publicly?” Kingsley took over Professor McGonagall’s words with contempt, and shouted grimly: “Do you really think that I still care about these things now?! Rita Skeeter!”
Just as Kingsley’s angry roar ended, a sweet and coquettish voice came from outside the door!
“I’m here, Your Excellency the Minister!”
Rita walked into the cabin with a head of exquisite curly hair, pushed her glasses, looked around with disgust, stood next to Kingsley, raised her hand, and greeted Hermione provocatively.
“You will report today’s events truthfully, right?” Kingsley asked coldly, glancing at everyone.
“Of course, Mr. Minister!” Rita’s sweet voice sounded again, and her shorthand quill quickly recorded on the small notebook that was also floating in the air: “I have thought of the title, “Murder at Hogwarts, several professors involved!” I think the parents of those children will be happy to see what’s going on.”
“You’re back to your old ways?” Hermione looked at Rita with disdain. “Then should this report be signed by Rita Skeeter, famous journalist and unregistered Animagus?”
“You’re still so annoying!” Rita rolled her eyes. “Believe me, I’ve completed the registration and obtained the legal procedures.”
“Politics! Haha! A dirty deal!” Selena stood aside and said coldly.
“Another annoying little girl!” Rita looked at Selena and said maliciously, “Don’t learn from your Professor Granger. She didn’t have a good ending!”
“You are the one who should have a bad ending!” Xiaopo roared in dissatisfaction.
Hermione stopped Xiaopo: “I’m fine, you don’t need to worry about me!”
“I don’t think so!” Kingsley’s voice sounded again, looking at Xiaopo and Hermione with an undisguised unfriendly look: “Do you want to leave by yourselves, or let the Inspectorate do it?!”
Kingsley’s words were like a huge rock falling into the water, instantly stirring up waves!
“You can’t!” Selena yelled!
“Do you think I’m afraid of you!” Xiaopo roared!
“Do any of you really care about the patients!” Madam Pomfrey roared!
“Does the Ministry of Magic really want to start a war?!” Professor McGonagall roared!
“Impotent rage! A mantis trying to stop a chariot! A desperate struggle! Tsk tsk tsk tsk!” Rita commented with a pout!
Everyone’s voices rang out almost at the same time!
Professor Xin couldn’t stand this chaotic atmosphere anymore and shouted loudly!
He let go of Madam Pomfrey, glared at Little Bro, and stepped in front of Kingsley.
“Fighting?”
Professor Xin’s eyes were filled with excitement!
With a bang, the smell of alcohol from Professor Xin’s body instantly spread!
Kingsley was startled, and pulled Rita, who was still confused, and jumped out of the hut!
“What are you doing?” Kingsley roared angrily!
“I don’t want to…”
Professor Xin’s voice was still in the hut in the last second, and in the next second, Professor Xin had rushed out of the hut!
“Fight!”
An angry roar rose to the sky!
Professor Xin stepped on his knees, swung his fists, the bones in his body cracked, and his fists flew straight to Kingsley’s face with the sound of wind!
Tongbeiquan!
Kingsley’s eyes narrowed, and he pulled Rita, who was still lying on the ground, back away!
Suddenly, a man rushed out from the side, wearing a dark blue combat uniform, which was particularly eye-catching among the crowd of people in the Supervisory Department. He kicked Professor Xin’s arm with both feet in the air. After landing, he lowered his hand to kick back, swept his leg, kicked with a whirlwind, stepped forward to hit from the side, and struck the ground with both hammers. He performed a series of moves like flowing water and forced Professor Xin to retreat several steps!
Professor Xin blocked the blow with both hands, used the force to step back and create some distance, and shouted angrily: “How dare you stop me!”
“Hehe!” Kingsley’s mocking voice sounded beside him: “You are not the only one who knows martial arts!”
Professor Xin glared at Kingsley, then looked at the person who came again. He shook his arms, and magic power spread around his body. He stretched out his front palms and started to move. Up!
The man snorted coldly and waved his arms. There were a series of explosions. On his chest and back, on his shoulders and elbows, on his knees and feet, magic circles formed by magic lit up one after another on his side!
“I’m sorry!”
The man saluted and said something, then rushed forward with his palms full of light!
“What is this!?”
Following the crowd that rushed out the door, Xiaopo looked at the field in surprise!
What’s the martial arts skill? The style of painting is different, isn’t it?
Can the world get any more chaotic? Ultraman doesn’t fight the little monsters anymore, so he’s really going to fight Godzilla?
What the hell is going on? Are you guys cheating?
Facing Xiaopo’s gaze, Hermione also shook her head!
No one spoke, no one answered! Among the people present, those who might know what was going on were quickly exchanging moves!
Maybe!
Xiaopo suddenly thought of something and shouted into the house, “Xiaoai classmate!”
“exist!”
Xiao Ai’s unique voice sounded again, and the moment the holographic projection appeared next to Xiao Po, Xiao Ai also opened her mouth in surprise!
“This is…” Xiao Ai muttered unconfidently!
“What is it? Tell me!” Xiaopo said anxiously.
“This is the pulse technique! The pulse technique of the 10th pulse gate!”
Xiao Ai said in surprise, and at the same time, she set up a screen next to her to give a detailed introduction to this so-called pulse diagnosis technique!
But now, how could anyone really read the detailed introduction? ? In just a split second, Professor Xin and the unknown master’s magic power collided.
“Is it very powerful?” Xiaopo asked anxiously.
“The pulse technique itself is not that special, but…” Xiao Ai hesitated and said, “This is the pulse technique of the 10th Pulse Sect!”
The magic exploded! Professor Xin and the unknown master flew out together!
There’s no time to listen to Xiao Ai’s nonsense, Selena said decisively!
The fake Galleons had already become very popular, and after Selena sent out the news, the DAs’ news almost exploded!
However, Selena resolutely put the Galleons in her pocket, turned around and gave the professors a look that said, “Don’t stop us!” She drew her wand and rushed out headfirst!
I don’t know if Hermione was surprised by Selena’s change. She loosened her hand and not only failed to stop Selena, she even failed to stop Xiao Po!
Xiaopo roared, and the black and red magic rushed into the sky like a burst of black flames! The roar of magic resounded through the sky!
A strange smile appeared at the corner of Kingsley’s mouth!
Very good, I finally waited for you to take action!
“Inspection Department, take action!”
Kingsley and Professor McGonagall shouted in unison!
Hermione cast a spell and flew in front of Selena and Little Pokémon!
With two dull thuds, Professor Xin and the mysterious master both fell to the ground!
Xiaopo quickly helped Professor Xin up!
“Damn it, I actually lost to Old Man Lan!” Professor Xin took off the wine jug and took a few gulps, cursing angrily!
As if hearing Professor Xin’s whisper, the mysterious master’s voice also rang out: “If I hadn’t been poisoned, I wouldn’t have been able to beat you!”
“It’s good that you know!” Professor Xin raised his head and glared at the opposite side in dissatisfaction: “Did the old man send you here?”
“Yeah!” Old Man Lan nodded.
“What if I don’t agree?” Professor Xin said dissatisfiedly.
“Others have arrived too.” The other side responded calmly.
“MD!” Professor Xin spat on the ground and said, “Come on, I’ll take care of this child!”
“Just you!” Kingsley roared.
“Just me!” Professor Xin pointed at himself with his thumb, and glared at Kingsley arrogantly, regardless of how embarrassed he was!
Old Man Lan did not answer and stood aside silently!
He gave Professor Xin a look that indicated that he would not attack unless Kingsley was attacked!
Professor Xin smiled proudly, rolled up his sleeves and was about to go up again!
But at this moment, Hermione patted Professor Xin’s shoulder, shook her head, and smiled helplessly.
Then he looked at Kingsley: “We’ll follow you!”
Chapter 50 The sky is so blue! (Old version)
“We’ll go with you!”
“What?” Xiaopo shouted, unable to believe his ears!
Did I hear it wrong? It must be!
But Hermione’s next words made Xiaopo completely certain that he had not heard wrong!
“We’ll go with you!” Hermione repeated calmly, “But, before we figure things out, don’t even think about hurting these two children!”
“Can!”
Kingsley answered readily, raised his hand and gestured to the Inspectorate, and the Inspectorate immediately made way!
Hermione gave the others a reassuring look and walked ahead!
“No!” Professor Xin came to his senses and flashed to the front, raised his hand to stop Hermione, and said domineeringly: “I don’t care who you are, you have to listen to me today!”
“It’s not your turn to speak here!” Kingsley shouted, and said to the blue-robed man behind him: “Stop her!”
Old Man Lan seemed not to hear it and turned his head to look at the sky!
Kingsley turned his head angrily and looked at the man in blue robe!
Old Man Lan smiled and said, “Our mission is limited to protecting your safety.”
“Hahahaha!” Professor Xin laughed wantonly, not caring about his weak body at all: “Old Lan, you’re not bad! When we get back, I’ll treat the five of you to a drink!”
Old Man Lan smiled and nodded, then bowed to Professor Xin.
Hermione smiled and glanced at Kingsley, her meaning was very clear: You saw it too, I wanted to cooperate, but unfortunately, I can’t do it~
Selena took advantage of this opportunity and quickly pulled Hermione back!
Holding his wand, he stood in front of Hermione side by side with Little Pokémon!
Watching the two people’s actions, Hermione smiled and rubbed the two children’s heads!
Kingsley was furious. He glared at a few people and looked at Professor Xin: “What do you want?”
“It’s very simple!” Professor Xin frowned and took a sip of wine: “Defeat me! Otherwise, don’t even think about taking them away!”
“Do you know the consequences of obstructing the Ministry of Magic from handling cases?” Kingsley asked maliciously with narrowed eyes.
“Consequences?” Professor Xin gave Kingsley an idiotic look: “The consequences are always something you have to consider when you can’t win!”
Kingsley looked at Professor Xin coldly, a murderous look flashed in his eyes, and suddenly he shouted!
“Inspection Department!”
Xiaopo was startled by the sudden roar and subconsciously got into position!
But Hermione had already pulled Little Brontë and Selena back quickly!
A layer of shield blocked in front of him! In the blink of an eye, it was shattered by the magic in the sky!
Snowflakes are scattered and dust is flying!
All kinds of magic indiscriminately covered the place where the few people just stood!
The Supervisory Department! Take action!
Professor Xin’s figure flashed, and he took strange steps, weaving through the criss-crossing magic and rushing towards the position of the Supervisory Department!
“Are you scared?” The three of them stopped and looked at the two children in front of them!
Without answering, Selena smiled and shook her head! The black and red magic on Xiaopo’s body that was eager to fight explained everything!
Afraid? If you were afraid, you wouldn’t rush out! If you were afraid, you wouldn’t be a DA!
“We…” Hermione shook her head, her eyes suddenly determined, she drew out her wand, took off her cloak, and the fake Galleons on her clothes were clearly pinned to her collar, reflecting the dazzling light: “DA!”
“kill!!”
Xiaopo and Selena roared in unison!
In this situation, it is unclear who is infecting whom! From the moment Hermione took off her robe, there were no professors or students here! There were only DAs!
If you want to fight, then fight! Never compromise!
Oh!
The black flames on Xiaopo’s body roared straight into the sky. Under the protection of Hermione and Selena, he rushed towards the battlefield with unparalleled momentum!
“Damn! I’m actually impressed by their coolness!” In the midst of the battlefield full of magic, Professor Xin actually took the time to look over here, took out DA’s fake Galleons and slapped them on his chest, and suddenly raised his voice and yelled: “DA!”
DA! Yes, DA!
“DA!” Xiaopo, Selena and Hermione responded in unison!
As if some buff had been activated, the combat power of several people suddenly rose, and they quickly gathered together. Professor Xin and Xiaopo’s magic power exploded! They actually suppressed a group of supervisors!
Kingsley looked at the scene with cold eyes, his eyelids twitching unconsciously! Rita, who was standing next to him, looked at this scene she had never seen before with fear and excitement!
Headline! Tomorrow’s headline! This is definitely tomorrow’s headline!
“Principal McGonagall!” Kingsley turned his head and looked towards the hut: “Aren’t the professors going to take action?”
Professor McGonagall didn’t even look at Kingsley, and stood aside majestically: “This is a battle between the DA, Hogwarts will not interfere. But! I believe in them!”
“Very good!” Kingsley drawled, drawing his wand. “I hope Hogwarts will keep its word!”
Kingsley pointed his wand toward the sky, and a rumbling thunder suddenly sounded!
Hermione frowned instantly, feeling an ominous premonition!
The thunder has started! What about the lightning?
Professor Xin immediately looked up at the sky!
The sky that changed color due to Xiaopo’s magic, the magical fluctuations at this moment, became more and more chaotic!
Professor Xin shouted loudly, picked up the wine jug and threw it into the sky with all his might!
A white light suddenly appeared! There was a white glow between heaven and earth!
Just as several people subconsciously covered their eyes, the accumulated power of lightning fell instantly!
The wine jug that was blocking the air was instantly shattered by lightning, the wine mist dispersed, Professor Xin flew up, and flames gushed out, just as bright white, just as fierce!
The two magical powers collided with each other! There was no sound, no explosion!
Energy is tangled together like substance!
Next second!
The winner is decided!
Professor Xin didn’t have time to land and started shouting a reminder in the air!
Kingsley raised the corner of his mouth: “Run! Let’s see who can run away!”
Lightning suddenly fell and went straight towards Xiaopo!
As expected, from the beginning to the end, the Ministry of Magic and Kingsley wanted to target Little Bro!
Can’t run away?
But who said Xiaopo wanted to run away!
There are still people from the DA fighting, why would the other DA run away? !
Hermione, who has already caught Crank and Selena, gave them a beating!
Looking at Selena’s actions, Hermione smiled!
At such a critical moment, Hermione! Is laughing!
Raise your wand quickly!
Hermione put up the shield almost at the same time as Selena!
All we do is to gain that tiny bit of time!
Because, Xiaopo is meditating!
The orange and red faded, the light shield shattered, and lightning fell!
But Xiaopo’s pure magic power has already risen!
Xiaopo suddenly opened his eyes and used his magic wand to face the lightning!
There was no magic, no spells, the purest magic power surged out from the wand! Facing the murderous lightning head-on!
Unbeatable? Unstoppable?
It’s just a pure competition of magic power, legendary child, please understand first!
The two magical forces collided with each other!
Lightning shattered into pieces! Xiaopo’s magic power rushed straight into the sky!
The dark clouds dissipated, revealing the clear sky behind!
Almost everyone stopped what they were doing and looked up at the sky under the guidance of the incredibly powerful magic!
At this moment, the sky is really blue~
First time! This was the first time that Xiaopo had completed such a powerful spell with his own will!
Xiaopo didn’t know how he did it! At that time, he just felt that he could do it! He must do it! The moment the lightning struck, Xiaopo closed his eyes for no reason, and then…
And then there’s everything now!
Xiaopo looked at the magic wand in his hand excitedly and excitedly!
He looked at Hermione, Selena, and Professor Xin excitedly!
Why did everyone’s excited faces suddenly reveal worry…
despair……
The sound of water drops falling can be heard so clearly!
Xiaopo subconsciously looked at his robe, and bright red blood was dripping down drop by drop.
Xiaopo quickly touched his nose, and the sticky liquid stuck to his hands!
A feeling of powerlessness came over him, the colors slowly faded, the world in front of him turned gray, everything around him was spinning, Selena seemed to be yelling something, but in Xiaopo’s ears, there was only that piercing buzzing…
Xiao Po muttered softly, seeing his raised hand, seeing Selena, Hermione and Professor Xin rushing over anxiously, the dead trees in the Forbidden Forest, the mountains in the distance, and the blue sky…
The sky is so blue!
With a muffled sound, Xiaopo fell on his back in the snow and fainted…
Chapter 51 Dreaming of Azkaban~ (Old Version)
But where am I?
“Are you dizzy again?”
Xiaopo stretched his hand forward, looked at the castle on the cliff below, and recalled everything that had just happened.
Am I flying?
He must be dizzy!
No, wake up! Still fighting!
The Inspectorate! Professor Xin! Professor Granger! Selena!
Xiaopo was a little anxious.
But suddenly, Xiaopo dived and rushed towards the castle below quickly!
wait!
Xiaopo roared loudly in his heart!
Yes, I really want to wake up, but is it necessary to be so violent?
You will fall to death!
If I die in a dream, will I really die outside?
As if hearing the roar in Xiaopo’s heart, a layer of light shield suddenly appeared!
All of a sudden, alarm bells rang!
One after another, black spots emerged from the castle!
Under the neat uniforms, they all raised their wands!
What is that?
Is that a wizard? A guard?
Where exactly is this place?
Xiaopo looked at the scene in front of him in confusion, but the magic had already struck!
Xiaopo’s speed did not slow down at all, and the magic dissipated as he raised his hand!
With a loud bang, the light shield in front of him exploded!
The wizards below still held their wands expressionlessly, gathering their magic power and casting their magic! All kinds of magic once again shot towards Xiaopo!
“Is that all?”
A familiar voice came from Xiaopo’s mouth, but that was not what Xiaopo wanted to say, okay?
Is that all? The energy of the magic is already so strong that it can be easily sensed, okay?!
Xiaopo roared in his heart, but his mouth didn’t even move!
Xiaopo’s feet landed on the castle!
The huge impact shattered the ground of the castle!
Xiaopo turned around gracefully, with his cloak flying!
The magic spreads with the air waves, washing away the dust!
Wherever he passed, wizards in uniform disappeared in an instant!
“Sure enough, it’s all magic!”
Xiaopo spoke again and looked around!
Iron gates, railings, shackles, handcuffs, and guard magic!
Here! Is this Azkaban? !
Xiaopo was muttering to himself!
If it was Azkaban, where were the guards? Without the Dementors, were there no guards?
Let alone those fakes in uniforms! Although the sound of all magic was shocking, those guards who were easily dispersed by magic must have been a trick created by magic!
Does Azkaban no longer need guards?
Just as Xiaopo was puzzled, several doors around him suddenly opened! Magical spells intersected and instantly surrounded Xiaopo!
The hexagram rose with Xiaopo as the center and suddenly shrank!
Xiaopo raised his wand and took a step forward!
The hexagram was stepped on by Xiaopo!
Xiaopo stood in the middle domineeringly, looked around coldly, and shouted: “Do I have to kill my way in by myself?!”
The words have been spoken with great force!
Xiaopo exerted force with his feet, and the hexagram magic circle was broken!
The magic dust floated away and slowly condensed in front of Xiaopo!
A magical figure condensed in front of Xiaopo.
“Hello, stranger, I haven’t been to Azkaban for a long time…”
An obvious magical sound was heard, Xiaopo smiled and took a step forward, raised his hand and crushed the magic in front of him!
When the dust settled, Xiaopo looked up at the sky!
“I said before, once all the members of the Supervisory Department are dispatched, this place will be an empty city!”
A familiar voice sounded beside him, and Xiaopo swore that he would never mistake this voice!
Xiaopo turned his head and looked at the bearded man who appeared beside him out of nowhere, and anger instantly surged in his heart!
But Xiaopo just nodded calmly and looked at the only door that was still open: “It seems that the Ministry of Magic has made new arrangements after you left.”
“What?” The bearded man’s stunned look clearly showed that he was surprised.
“It’s time to go.”
Xiaopo didn’t answer, he suddenly stepped on the ground and flew into the sky!
A suffocating chill came from under his feet, but Xiaopo had already disappeared into the air!
A gentle call sounded in Xiaopo’s ears!
Xiaopo sat up suddenly, with black flames reaching his shoulders, and raised his hands to protect himself!
“Idiot?!”
Selena’s low curse came, and Xiaopo finally saw clearly that he was lying in a square room. The magic lamp on the ceiling was flickering, and an iron door was tightly closed. There were no windows, no furniture, and the only decoration was a row of wooden boards hanging against the wall around him, and he was lying on it. Selena, Hermione, and Professor Xin were sitting next to him.
“You can still cast spells?” Hermione looked at Xiaopo in surprise.
Xiaopo nodded subconsciously, removed the black flame from his shoulder, closed his eyes, opened his palms, and a ball of blue magic appeared in his palms.
“Oh, we’ve made progress again. Let’s fight our way out!” Professor Xin’s joking voice came, followed by a cough.
“You can’t even speak clearly and yet you rush out to kill! What are you trying to do?” Selena still cursed angrily.
Professor Xin smiled and patted the fake Garlon on his chest, shouting proudly: “D…”
Then, there was another coughing fit.
Selena looked over with disgust and rolled her eyes!
“Did I faint?” Xiaopo let down his guard and rubbed his head which still hurt.
A smell of alcohol came over him, and Professor Xin took a few gulps from a new wine jug he got from somewhere.
“Poison was found in the bottle of wine I bought for you.” Hermione came over and briefly checked Xiaopo’s condition. There was no emotion in her tone.
“Damn this shitty poison! MD! When I get out, I’ll beat them down one by one!” Professor Xin roared indignantly, but his fists, which should have made crackling sounds, didn’t make any sound at all.
“Can you please be quiet for a while!” Selena scolded angrily, “Don’t you know how bad your condition is? Can you please rest in peace!”
Professor Xin snorted and closed his mouth silently.
Hermione smiled and looked at Selena.
Selena glared at Professor Xin fiercely again, then turned around and looked at Xiaopo again: “How do you feel?”
“I’m fine.” Xiaopo answered absentmindedly, “How long have I been unconscious?”
“About two hours,” Selena replied.
“Two hours?” Xiaopo muttered.
Although what he should be concerned about now is how to leave here, or the further damage done by the poison to Professor Xin, Xiaopo’s mind is now filled with the dream he just had!
If it was only two hours, if what I just saw in my dream was real!
Oh my god!
Who is that guy with the beard? Is it CG? What on earth does he want to do?!
But how could CG be with the bearded man? And why could he see CG’s situation?
Is this really just a dream?
When I was in first grade, every dream I had about CG was real!
But those are times when CG is dangerous!
Wait, what’s with that desperate coldness in that final moment?
Is CG really dangerous?
No! CG has already left! He must have already left…
So why was he going to Azkaban?
What is going on here?
Xiaopo just felt dizzy and shook his head hard, but there was no improvement. Instead, he felt even worse.
Selena looked at Xiaopo with some concern.
Xiaopo tried hard to force a smile, but who could he deceive with such a forced smile?
“Just say it if you have something to say!” Professor Xin couldn’t stand this kind of shyness, so he put down the wine jug and said dissatisfiedly.
Xiaopo raised his head with a complicated expression. He looked at the fake Galleons on Professor Xin and Hermione’s collars that were used as badges, and then he made up his mind!
“I just saw CG in my dream.”
“The same dream as last year?” Selena was the first to react!
Xiaopo nodded solemnly!
Selena stood up suddenly!
In just a moment, the four people in the room understood the current situation!
CG, it may be dangerous!
Chapter 52: Weird Room (Old Version)
The room suddenly became quiet again, with only the magic lamp above the head making some crackling sounds from time to time.
The Ministry of Magic, Kingsley, and so on are no longer important! It doesn’t matter what CG thinks!
Now I just want to know what the CG is like!
But the biggest problem at hand is!
They can’t get out!
Although this is not a prison, judging by the current situation, the Ministry of Magic will not let them out easily!
Hermione, Selena, and even Xiaopo couldn’t help but frown!
Professor Xin took a sip of wine, closed his eyes, then suddenly stood up and kicked the door of the room!
A huge noise echoed in the room!
Selena subconsciously covered her ears!
Xiaopo didn’t move. Although the sound of the kick was loud, it shouldn’t be that…
But the next second, Xiaopo understood!
“Someone come!”
“Open the door!”
“Let me out!”
One sound is louder than the other! Full of energy!
Professor Xin’s angry roar hurt my eardrum!
Is this a lion’s roar? Is this a lion’s roar that can be performed by a person who has been poisoned? !
But at this moment, the door of the room was opened!
Xiaopo quickly put his hand down and looked fiercely at the figure standing at the door!
Zhongshan suit! Zhongshan suit again!
Xiaopo looked towards the door unhappily!
Whenever the Zhongshan suit appears, nothing good happens!
“Make way!” Kingsley’s dissatisfied voice came from behind!
The men in Zhongshan suits made way for the door with expressionless faces.
Kingsley called to Professor Xin: “Come here and sign! You can go now!”
Professor Xin was stunned for a second, then he winked at Xiaopo with a smug look on his face and raised his hand to take the quill handed to him by Kingsley!
Selena rushed over quickly, grabbed Professor Xin’s hand, and glared at Professor Xin fiercely!
Xiaopo understood the meaning of that look too well. It was clearly saying, “Are you an idiot? Just sign when I tell you to?”
“What’s wrong?” Professor Xin subconsciously looked at the man in the Zhongshan suit next to him.
One of them, wearing a Zhongshan suit, shook his head awkwardly.
Selena glanced at Kingsley with a wary look on her face, snatched the document, and threw it aside without even looking at it: “Don’t think you can fool us just by finding a few people to put on Zhongshan suits!”
“them……”
Professor Xin tried to speak, but was glared back by Selena.
Selena looked at Kingsley relentlessly, “What kind of document would the Minister of Magic personally come to you to sign?”
“As the Minister of Magic,” Kingsley interrupted Selena condescendingly, “There’s no need to be so fussy about this!”
Hermione picked up the document on the ground, glanced at it, and handed it to Selena.
Selena took it in confusion, then looked at the title: “Memorandum of Understanding”.
“So, let’s forget about this matter?” Hermione asked, looking at Kingsley calmly.
“You wish!” Kingsley said unhappily and walked out of the room without looking back.
The door of the room was wide open, and everyone subconsciously looked at Selena.
Selena, who was still studying the secrets of this Memorandum of Understanding, raised her head awkwardly: “Why are you all looking at me?”
“They are really from our side.” Professor Xin pointed at the Zhongshan suits outside and carefully finished his words that had just been glared back at by Selena.
“So?” Selena asked unhappily.
“So, can we go now?” Xiaopo asked carefully.
“Why are you asking me?” Selena still didn’t believe that Kingsley would let this go so easily. She looked as if there was definitely a conspiracy here!
“The DA has to listen to you.” Hermione smiled and patted Selena’s shoulder.
“Let’s go! I want to see what the Ministry of Magic is up to!” Selena adjusted her hair awkwardly, puffed out her chest and walked out the door first!
“snort!”
A dissatisfied snort came from the room outside. In the corridor, the door locks had been opened one after another. Led by Selena, several people walked outside together!
The chaotic footsteps echoed in the corridor, covering up the faint groans of pain!
Looking at the tightly closed doors next to each other, I wonder how many people have been locked inside.
But these seemed different from what was rumored. Were they really just ordinary rooms? What about the detentions? What about the chains and shackles? Were they really gone?
At this moment, a door next to him suddenly made a loud noise! ​​It was as if a truck hit the iron door! After the loud noise, painful sobs, anxious roars, and desperate wails, all kinds of sounds mixed together came from the door.
Xiaopo was obviously startled and jumped aside.
Hermione quickly moved aside and pulled Little Bro away. Professor Xin protected Selena and looked at the door while glancing at Little Bro and asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong?”
Xiaopo didn’t answer. He slowly stood up and carefully moved towards the door…
There must be someone suffering in there! That person must be his friend! A voice in his heart desperately called out Xiaopo’s name! That voice was so familiar! But Xiaopo couldn’t remember who it was for a moment.
As if possessed by some mysterious force, Xiaopo stretched out his hand towards the door. It seemed that the door had a different kind of magic, calling him to touch it and open it!
“Little Broken One!” Selena, who discovered something was wrong, warned loudly!
Hermione grabbed Little Bro’s wrist!
Xiaopo finally came to his senses. There was no whimpering in pain, no Selena being frightened. He was just staring at the door! He was reaching out to touch it!
Everyone looked at Xiaopo in surprise!
“Didn’t you hear it?” Xiaopo looked at the others.
Selena shook her head. Hermione and Professor Xin looked at Xiaopo worriedly!
“What are you doing?” A dissatisfied voice came from the end of the corridor. Kingsley returned to the corridor and looked at everyone: “Do you want to get out or not?”
“Let’s go, Xiaopo.” Hermione’s gentle voice sounded, soothing Xiaopo’s heart.
Is this door magical?
Xiao Po subconsciously thought so. After all, this is a magical world, and it doesn’t look anything special…
Shaking his head, taking a long breath, Xiaopo stepped forward.
But at this step, the wailing, pain, and struggle instantly turned into despair, the despair of losing everything!
Xiaopo suddenly stopped and looked at the door again!
Xiaopo didn’t know if there was any danger, but the feeling in his heart told him that if he left like this, something very important would be gone from him!
“What’s locked inside?” Xiaopo shouted loudly.
There was no answer, Kingsley looked at Xiaopo strangely.
The accompanying Ministry official whispered in Kingsley’s ear.
Xiaopo didn’t want to wait any longer and reached for the door!
Professor Xin reached out and grabbed Xiaopo. Xiaopo looked at Professor Xin angrily, and black and red flames climbed up to his shoulders in an instant!
Wait, why am I angry? It really is a magic that affects the mind!
Just when Xiaopo was distracted, Professor Xin gave him a smile.
Professor Xin threw the small broken thing behind him with a determined look on his face. With a loud bang, Professor Xin’s big feet had kicked open the strange door!
The resentment that soared into the sky roared out of the door, and a sense of despair instantly enveloped Xiaopo.
Xiaopo subconsciously closed his eyes. Is this hell? !
The pain and wailing inside kept reaching Xiaopo’s ears!
No, this is not hell. Hell should be flames and magma, but the feeling here is endless cold!
I had just experienced that icy feeling! I had seen it in my dream!
Xiaopo opened his eyes with great difficulty, with a painful expression on his face. However, all he saw were the surprised eyes of the crowd and the empty room…
Chapter 53 Cabin Party (Old Version)
Empty?!
Xiaopo rushed in in disbelief!
Touching the bare wall and looking at the empty room in front of me!
“Impossible, impossible, this is impossible!” Xiaopo muttered in a low voice like a madman.
Xiaopo swore that he must recognize that desperate voice!
How could it be empty?! Why couldn’t others sense it?! Who was imprisoned inside?!
“Enough of the trouble!” Kingsley stood outside the door with dissatisfaction.
Professor Xin stood opposite Kingsley and glared at him indifferently.
Kingsley snorted coldly, turned around and walked out the door!
Selena worriedly pulled Xiaopo and walked out of the room silently.
Xiaopo looked back every few steps. How could it be empty? How could it be possible!
The door to the corridor was slammed shut!
The worried Little Po finally saw the situation clearly, and the anxious Hagrid not far away!
“Hagrid, why are you here?” Hermione asked in surprise.
“Hermione, are you all okay?” Hagrid’s rough voice came, and he walked quickly to the side of the few people: “I received a message from the school owl, so I hurried back.”
“Owl?” Hermione looked at Hagrid in confusion.
“Yeah,” Hagrid nodded, rummaging in his pocket for a long time, and found the owl note from a small box: “I received it a few days ago, saying that you were in trouble and asked me to come back as soon as possible. God, are you all okay? They didn’t do anything to you?”
“They do want to!” Professor Xin said unhappily.
Kingsley coughed, glared at Hagrid, and turned away.
Hermione didn’t answer, but took the note from Hagrid. Smelling the faint smell of alcohol on it, the doubt on her face gradually turned into a smile.
“Hogwarts is such a magical place.” Hermione muttered softly.
“Sign and go!” Kingsley’s cold voice came from the side, and he put Professor Xin’s tablet on the table in front.
“So…” Professor Xin narrowed his eyes and looked at the men in Zhongshan suits.
“We used the video footage from that time,” the leader in a Zhongshan suit said somewhat awkwardly, and then quickly explained, “Of course, it was authorized, otherwise we couldn’t crack the code, you know.”
“And they believed it?” Selena looked at Kingsley with suspicion.
“There is also Professor Hagrid’s testimony and his entry and exit records. And…” added the captain in the Zhongshan suit.
“Entry and exit records!” Selena discovered the key to the problem and looked at Hagrid: “So, you really went to France?”
“Yes,” Hagrid replied in a deep voice, with a barely perceptible blush on his face. “I have made an appointment with Olympe a long time ago.”
“Wait a minute!” Professor Xin also looked over: “Who did we see a few hours ago? Who ate my gunpowder dumplings!”
A few people in Zhongshan suits nearby, who didn’t know the truth, stared at Professor Xin with wide eyes!
What the hell are gunpowder dumplings? Are they really edible? The men in Zhongshan suits were confused and wanted to ask questions, but the current situation seemed inappropriate!
Keep silent! Silence is golden! That’s right!
People in Zhongshan suits comfort themselves!
“Idiot?!” Selena cursed angrily, “Someone is disguised as Hagrid!”
“Impossible! No one can become a half-giant!” Professor Xin retorted, then realized something was wrong and patted Hagrid on the shoulder: “Don’t mind.”
“It’s okay.” Hagrid smiled and shook his head.
“The lowest grade can be transformed into sound, the middle grade can be transformed into shape, and the highest grade can be transformed into energy.” Selena bit her finger and muttered, “In addition to transforming objects, can the beast be transformed into a human?”
“Refining beast!” Professor Xin asked in surprise, “It’s that bearded guy named Shi Kaobing again!”
Xiaopo, who was daydreaming, suddenly came to his senses! Impossible!
It couldn’t be the bearded man, he was clearly in another place! In another place from the me in my dream!
“Enough!” Kingsley shouted in dissatisfaction, “Are you trying to pin all of this on the Ministry of Magic’s Inspectorate again? Should the Inspectorate be blamed for all the bad things in the world? I am not holding you accountable because I have already weighed the interests of all parties. Don’t push your luck!”
“Why are you so anxious!” Professor Xin retorted nonchalantly: “Did we say it was you who did it? Besides, haven’t you done enough? Haven’t you concealed enough? Are you planning to keep the Muggle nuclear power plant a secret forever? How funny!”
“It’s none of your business to care about Country Y’s affairs!” Kingsley suppressed his anger.
“Tsk!” Professor Xin rolled his eyes at Kingsley and looked at Xiaopo: “Why do you say it’s impossible?”
Xiaopo closed his mouth helplessly!
How? In front of Kingsley and the Ministry of Magic, CG and Beard were together? What were they doing together? They attacked Azkaban together!
Hermione saw Xiaopo’s helplessness and said, “Let’s go back to Hogwarts first~”
“Portkey!” Kingsley pointed impatiently at an iron bucket next to him.
“So thoughtful. There must be a lot of reporters outside, right?” Hermione looked at Kingsley with a smile.
“Are you guys leaving or not? I don’t mind keeping you locked up for a few more days!” Kingsley replied unhappily.
Ignoring Kingsley, Hermione glanced at Crank and Selena and walked towards the portkey.
Professor Xin turned his head and looked at the men in Mao suits: “Together?”
The men in Zhongshan suits did not move. The team leader shook his head and replied, “We can’t leave yet. The commander-in-chief has given us some instructions.”
“I knew you were going to do this again!” Professor Xin cursed in dissatisfaction, “So why did you send Old Man Lan and the others here? Wouldn’t it be better for me to just kill him and be done with it?”
“You can try!” Kingsley narrowed his eyes, and magic gathered faintly around him.
The men in Zhongshan suits smiled awkwardly and did not answer.
The sound of the portkey vibrating came, and Professor Shin stopped hesitating. He rolled his eyes at Kingsley, found a gap next to Hagrid’s big hand, and put his hand on the portkey…
It seemed that this was Xiaopo’s first time traveling via a portkey.
However, Xiaopo was so full of things in his mind that he completely ignored the fact that he landed standing up, which was something he should be proud of.
But this is just Hogsmeade after all, not Hogwarts, and now is not the time to talk.
I couldn’t help but complain about this weird rule. Why can’t I teleport directly to school? Why can’t I use Floo powder? Why can’t I Apparate? There are so many ways to get back to school faster! Go back to the castle! Does anyone care? CG might be in danger! There are incredible secrets hidden in that room!
But things have come to this, what can we do?
Little Pokémon said goodbye to Hagrid in a daze. Hagrid waved his big hand and walked in another direction. Now that he was back, he still had to take care of Grawp.
Silently walking towards Hogwarts, Xiaopo felt for the first time that this road was so long.
Finally, the school gate appeared in front of us!
However, Xiaopo and Selena were brought by Hermione and Professor Xin to Professor Xin’s cabin!
The cabin seemed to have been repaired and there were noisy sounds coming from inside.
“What’s going on?” Xiaopo vaguely guessed something.
Professor Xin didn’t say anything and pushed open the door of the cabin.
The cold wind blew into the house, but warmth also enveloped several people from inside the house.
The noise stopped. Xiaopo looked at the DAs who had almost all arrived and didn’t know what to say for a moment!
This is the DA. Upon hearing the call, one after another gave up their vacation and rushed back! At this moment, Xiaopo wanted to cry.
But Xiaopo couldn’t. He forced himself to calm down and quickly sorted out his thoughts!
He had to use the simplest words to make everyone understand: “CG, there might be danger!”
The DAs all looked towards the corner.
“Thank you, I’m fine~”
Smiling, the cool boy walked from the corner to the door and patted Xiaopo’s shoulder!
Xiao Po stood there in a daze, looking at the intact CG in front of him in surprise, unable to believe what he saw!
But, isn’t this a good thing?!
CG is fine, nothing happened! It was really just a dream when I was unconscious!
“Others…” Xiaopo asked in a low voice.
“Everyone is here~” CG replied calmly.
They’re all here, great! My little brain was in a mess, but at least, everyone was here!
Oh my goodness! Is there any better news than this?
No, no, there should be more! But, who cares! Now, everyone is fine, that’s the most important thing to be happy about!
“What are you standing there for? Come in!” Professor Xin patted Xiaopo and pushed him in.
Selena and Hermione followed, closing the door behind them.
“You guys…” There was too much information and Xiaopo really didn’t know what to say.
No one responded, not even Albus.
No one knew who was the first, but everyone had already taken out the fake Galleons of great significance and patted them on their chests with a smile.
Those golden fake Galleons were like brooches hanging on the DAs’ chests.
Xiaopo stared blankly at everything in front of him.
Selena smiled, spread her hands out, and stretched them out in front of Xiaopo: “Give it to me!”
“W-what?”
Xiao Po said subconsciously, and then he realized. What else could it be? At this moment, of course, it was the fake Galleon that belonged to him!
Amid the girls’ giggles, Xiaopo put his fake Galleon into Selena’s hands.
Selena took out her wand, cast a simple transformation spell, and pinned it on Xiaopo’s chest.
Xiaopo smiled foolishly and looked around.
“I said it’s still a bit ugly. If we had known we were going to make a brooch, we should have designed it carefully.” Albus had the same silly smile on his face as Little Brooch.
“How about a heart?!” Lily drew a sketch in the air with her magic wand, with the same silly smile on her face as Xiaopo.
“Be serious, this book is actually very good!” Trod waved his hands with the same silly smile on his face as Little Po.
Hermione sat aside and took the drink handed to her by Professor Xin with the same silly smile on her face.
No one noticed that at this moment, everyone in the cabin had the same silly smile on their face as Xiaopo!
Maybe Xiaopo’s silly smile is really contagious! But this is not a bad thing!
“Xiao Ai-san!”
Professor Xin took a sip of wine and shouted with a silly smile.
“Xiao Ai is here!”
The full system projection appeared among the children!
“Give me a suggestion!”
Professor Xin demanded.
A clear bird song soars into the sky!
“After comprehensively analyzing everyone’s suggestions and behavioral preferences, as well as DA’s purpose and deeds, Xiao Ai suggests…”
The brooch pattern has appeared in the air!
CG snapped his fingers!
A number of glittering golden mockingjay brooches appeared on everyone’s chest!
“Have you forgotten something?” Professor Xin smiled proudly.
“Your poison…”
Xiaopo reacted subconsciously and was slapped on the head by Professor Xin.
“Idiot?” Professor Xin cursed, then smiled and looked at everyone: “This is the Christmas holiday, this is a holiday…”
Selena suddenly had a bad feeling: “Well, Xiaopo, I’ll take you to the school infirmary.”
“Ah?” Xiaopo obviously didn’t react.
“Since it’s a holiday and we’re all gathered together, why don’t we…”
Professor Xin continued on his own.
Xiaopo seemed to understand something: “Yes, I have to go find Madam Pomfrey! Let’s go, how about we go together?”
Selena nodded and opened the door!
A big hand pressed on the door and the door was slammed shut!
“How about we make dumplings together!” Professor Xin smiled through gritted teeth.
Selena looked at Hermione for help.
But Hermione had already rolled up her sleeves and started to prepare with a smile: “Do you have any more gunpowder?”
“Yes!” Professor Xin answered excitedly, “Enough!”
Chapter 54: Restless Children (Old Version)
It turns out that gunpowder dumplings don’t really exist. But asking a group of children to make dumplings is indeed a bit difficult, especially since most of them can’t even use chopsticks properly.
Fortunately, the elves brought enough ingredients, and Professor Xin’s cooking skills were not in vain.
As the children sat in the slightly crowded little house enjoying various Chinese dishes, a smile from the heart was on everyone’s face.
Xiaopo threw all the unhappiness behind him.
But, there is obviously something important going on!
Subconsciously, Xiaopo felt like he had left something behind! What was it?
Even after Xiaopo and CG returned to the dormitory and lay on their respective beds, Xiaopo still hadn’t remembered it.
The same thing happened to everyone else. What happened today? What happened to the poisoning? What happened to the beard? What happened to the Ministry of Magic? What happened to the Zhongshan suit? What happened to being released so easily?
So many things were happening, but they were forcibly suppressed by this atmosphere.
It was as if everything was planned, and before anyone could ask any questions, it was pressed down with one warmth and beauty after another.
Didn’t anyone notice that something was wrong here?
It’s impossible that no one noticed it, even Xiaopo felt something was wrong!
CG, Selena, Professor Xin, Hermione Granger, are there so many talented people who didn’t find anything? !
That night, Xiaopo slept very uneasily.
The next morning, Xiaopo appeared in the castle square with exaggerated dark circles under his eyes.
The other DAs didn’t seem to be in high spirits either. Instead, Professor Xin, who was poisoned, appeared in front of everyone as if nothing had happened.
The DAs’ morning class began. Absent-mindedness became the theme of the day.
“What? Cheer up!” Professor Xin ran at the end and shouted loudly: “You are so listless that I feel embarrassed to paddle!”
“And you’re embarrassed?” Albus taunted.
Professor Xin snorted nonchalantly and stopped walking. “Alright, alright. What are you complaining about? I spent so much effort to make you a big meal yesterday to make up for it.”
The children stopped one after another, and Jaina stood next to Professor Xin: “Do we have the right to an explanation?”
“Yeah, that’s right!” Trod also said.
“How can you, little brats, have so many ideas?” Professor Xin sat down on the snow with a carefree look.
Albus rolled his eyes and crossed his arms over his chest: “This is what annoys me about them adults, they always think we are children.”
“You didn’t rush over to beat her up?” Scorpius said teasingly, “Didn’t you say last time that you almost had a fight with your father?”
“It’s simple, he’s afraid of being beaten down!” Selena commented.
“Dad beat him down that time too.” Lily took Selena’s hand.
“Although we are children, we are also DAs, so, so… uh…” Winice stood beside Lily timidly.
“Good job, Winice!” Albus gave a thumbs up encouragingly: “So we have the right to know what is going on this time!”
“Don’t you already know?” Professor Xin fiddled with his messy hair.
“Know what?” Albus spread his hands and gestured: “We knew you were poisoned, and then the Ministry of Magic and the Inspectorate came, and you started fighting! We hurried back! Then what? What was the cause? What happened? What was the result? You are standing here like nothing happened, is that reasonable?”
“You don’t know anything?” Xiaopo looked at Albus in surprise.
Scorpius beside him nodded seriously: “When we arrived, you had already been taken to the Ministry of Magic, so we wanted to break into the Ministry of Magic at that time.”
“Don’t be impulsive!” Xiaopo said quickly, fearing that these children were serious.
“It’s not impulsive.” CG said seriously, “We have made a plan. We have about a 40% chance of rescuing you, but…”
“Just stopped by Headmistress McGonagall.”
Professor Xin had stood up at some point, with a silly smile on his face, and pressed his hands hard on CG’s head.
Unfortunately, CG dodged it easily.
Giving CG a dissatisfied look, Professor Shin put his arm on Lily and Selena’s shoulders: “After all, by that time, Professor Hagrid will have arrived at the Ministry of Magic, and we will be fine soon.”
“How did you know?” Selena pushed Professor Xin’s arm away in disgust.
“Tsk.” Professor Xin changed his position and put his arm on Winnies’s shoulder. “Of course I have my channels, right, Xiao Ai?”
Winice struggled a little uncomfortably, but did not seem to escape from the clutches of the devil.
“Hey, where’s Xiao Ai? Xiao Ai!” When no one answered, Professor Xin raised his voice and called out.
“It’s too cold,” an electronic voice came from Professor Xin’s pocket: “Xiao Ai can’t decide!”
Professor Xin rolled his eyes and continued nonchalantly: “Although your decisions are very unwise. But the fact that you really dare to rush into the Ministry of Magic means that I have not made you a professor in vain. That’s why I invited you to dinner! That’s why I brought this Mockingjay with you! That’s why…”
“So, we should know the whole truth of the matter!” CG interrupted Professor Xin.
“All?” Professor Xin asked meaningfully.
“What nonsense, of course it’s all!” Albus shouted dissatisfiedly: “If you don’t tell the truth, Selena, cross her out of the parchment!”
“Please~” Selena took out the parchment.
“Tsk!” Albus turned his head away in dissatisfaction!
“Okay!” Professor Xin returned to the crowd with a smile: “As requested by the audience, let’s recreate the scene now!”
Looking at Professor Xin acting funny, the children were really speechless for a moment.
Xiaopo suddenly thought that Professor Xin should tie a bow tie and then shout out loud: There is only one truth!
“But!” Professor Xin suddenly made a surprising turn!
Selena shook the parchment threateningly, with her wand pointed at it!
“The threat worked! It worked!” Professor Xin pressed down Selena’s wand with his hand: “But the DA’s rules can’t be broken, right? Shouldn’t we finish our morning lessons, eat breakfast, and then go to the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom to talk? Raise your hands if you agree!”
“Fuck!” Albus cursed in dissatisfaction.
But Trod nodded and raised his hand.
Amid Albus’s complaints, the morning class continued. When everyone finished breakfast in the hall and came to the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, Professor Sheen and Hermione were already waiting in the classroom.
The tablet is placed on the podium.
The children took their seats, and Professor Xin slid gently on the tablet. Xiao Ai appeared in the center of the podium, yawning.
“In order to find out the truth of the matter, Xiao Ai has put in a lot of effort…”
Chapter 55 Your analysis is very problematic! (Old version)
Xiao Ai rubbed her chubby face and cheered herself up again: “Where to start?”
“From the beginning, of course!” Albus rolled his eyes.
“Okay!” Xiao Ai replied with a smile, “Then we have to start from the prophecy made more than ten years ago!”
“You are telling crosstalk here?” Professor Xin knocked on the table helplessly: “Just tell it properly!”
“Okay,” Xiao Ai slid in the air, as if dragging the progress bar: “I believe everyone has generally known the ins and outs of the matter. Then let’s just talk about the main points, starting with Professor Hagrid that Xiaopo and Selena met. That Professor Hagrid was indeed a fake, and the real Professor Hagrid was already in Country F at that time. The identity of the fake Hagrid can be roughly determined. After all, there are not many ways to become a half-blood giant, and after all, this is not a simple imitation. Therefore, it is very likely that it is the refined beast speculated by Selena. If so, then the bearded man must be Also nearby! As for what he is doing nearby, it is unknown. If it is to poison Professor Sheen, but the poison is not in the rock cake, no one can be sure that Professor Sheen will really eat the rock cake made according to Hagrid’s craftsmanship. If it is not for Professor Sheen, then why does Beard frequently appear near the Forbidden Forest? Is it for Little Pokémon again, but is it Beard’s style to wait and see like this? Or is he still looking for the Holy Relic in the Forbidden Forest? But it doesn’t seem like it, it’s very strange, isn’t it. Xiao Ai doesn’t know the answer either, so let’s put it aside for now.
“Then there’s the Ministry of Magic. The presence of the Ministry of Magic shows that they had received the news a long time ago, so we cannot rule out the possibility that the bearded man is still working for the Ministry of Magic. But the Ministry of Magic’s attitude this time is indeed a bit strange! They arrived at the first moment, all the members of the Inspectorate were dispatched, and arrested people without saying a word, which only shows that they are determined to succeed this time! Right?! However, the subsequent handling is really shocking. Even if the real Hagrid arrived, it proves that there is something fishy. Even if the people we sent brought pressure and promises, but at such a sensitive time and such an important opportunity, the Ministry of Magic actually gave up so easily! Is this reasonable?
“Of course not! After all, the real poison detected was from the bottle of wine that Xiaopo gave to Professor Xin, and the person who bought the bottle of wine for Xiaopo was Professor Granger! Just based on this point, there is sufficient reason to lock them up for investigation! Right. No one would give up such an opportunity to kill two birds with one stone so easily. At least Xiao Ai wouldn’t. But the Ministry of Magic did it! They let the people go so easily! There was no torture, and there was not even the most basic inquiry and investigation! This is outrageous! What did the Ministry of Magic do? Just going through the motions? So many people were dispatched, and then just going through the motions, do you believe it? Xiao Ai doesn’t believe it anyway! So, who gave the Ministry of Magic the news? And why did the Ministry of Magic give up later? These two questions are actually the key to solving the problem.
“The only thing we know now is that the timely arrival of the real Hagrid was not a coincidence. A prophet who did not want to reveal his name sent a message to Hagrid a few days in advance. The faint smell of alcohol on the letter paper was enough to prove everything. So with no clues, Professor Granger and Professor Sheen visited the prophet after seeing you off. Professor Granger even said that she re-examined divination and the prophet for the first time.”
“Ahem.” Hermione coughed lightly inadvertently, and a blush flashed across her smiling face.
“Haha,” Xiao Ai laughed, “Let’s get back to the point. The prophet admitted that the message from the Ministry of Magic was sent by her! On the same day that the message was sent to Hagrid! It’s very strange, right? The prophet said that she didn’t know why she did it. She is not a detective, so she can’t give a logical explanation. But fate is so wonderful. If she didn’t do this, things would develop in a worse direction. In order to save everyone, Xiao Po had to suffer this trip to prison. Poor child, Xiao Ai will mourn for you for 3 seconds.”
Professor Xin knocked on the table again.
“Of course,” Xiao Ai continued, “the message she sent to the Ministry of Magic was not limited to this. The Ministry of Magic released him so easily because of a warning she gave: If Kingsley wants to reverse the situation, he must release him. It’s ridiculous, but the Ministry of Magic believed it. My God, they believed it! Just like the Ministry of Magic believed her other prophecy! The world is really full of wonders. Xiao Ai’s motherboard is about to burn out, and she still can’t figure out the logical relationship inside. All I can say is that magic is illogical! The above is all we know so far! The following content will have to wait for Xiao Po to supplement!”
Everyone’s eyes turned to Xiaopo at the same time.
“Me?” Xiaopo pointed at himself and asked puzzledly.
“That’s right!” Xiao Ai said seriously, “As far as Xiao Ai knows, you seemed to have had a strange dream in the Ministry of Magic, and seemed to be affected by some mental magic. For everyone’s curiosity, can you share it with us?”
With a bang, Xiaopo slammed the table, scaring everyone!
“I said I must have forgotten something!” Xiaopo stood up suddenly: “I heard a strange sound at that time, and the feeling at that time was just like what the prophecy said. If I leave, I will lose something very important forever. But, it’s empty inside! But that’s impossible! There must be something inside!”
“Yes, that’s it!” Xiao Ai knocked on the blackboard, and the holographic projection cooperated and gave an introduction: “Any magic will leave traces. Even if it is carefully removed, there will be clues left. This is not what I said, but what Professor Dumbledore said. It is empty in there, but the traces of magic are left in it! So, now we need to think about what is very important to Xiao Po?”
“Trust?” Albus scratched his head: “No, things.”
“Of course it’s possible!” Xiao Ai looked at Albus encouragingly: “Trust is very important to everyone! Although it is just a kind of emotion, a kind of recognition, it is definitely one of the options. Is there anything else? Use your brain!”
“The legend of Xiaopo.” Trod raised his hand: “This is important enough! If the truth of Xiaopo’s legend is hidden there…”
“Unlikely…” Jaina shook her head: “The prophecy should be stored in the rehearsal room. It is unlikely to appear there. What do you think, little broken?”
“I don’t know.” Xiaopo shook his head: “These are indeed important to me, but it shouldn’t be these.”
The classroom was silent for a moment, and everyone was thinking about what was important to Xiaopo!
Money, status, and power? You must be kidding. That’s what’s important to Kingsley, not Little Broke.
But what is it?
“friend!”
Just when everyone was at a loss, CG’s voice rang out.
No one spoke, no one answered, because there was no way to verify it.
Until Professor Xin knocked on the table and asked: “Xiao Ai, analyze it!”
“All right!”
Xiao Ai nodded helplessly. The data on the screen flashed rapidly, and then froze after more than ten seconds. A huge number appeared below the analysis report.
“Am I seeing this right? According to the analysis, the probability is 86.9%!” Xiao Ai looked at Xiao Po with an exaggerated expression: “Oh my God! Who has been locked up in there?”
“I was indeed worried about CG at the time,” Xiaopo raised his hand weakly, “but it turned out that CG was fine. Does that mean that if I hadn’t gone in, CG would have been in danger? That doesn’t make sense! Wasn’t CG in the cabin with the others at the time?”
Professor Xin frowned and said, “Xiao Ai, please briefly analyze the main points of the report!”
“Points!”
Xiao Ai waved her hands, and the text of the analysis report disappeared, but the picture that should have appeared did not appear.
Xiao Ai shook her head helplessly: “There is no point, just a comprehensive analysis based on all the circumstances.”
“Really?” Professor Xin narrowed his eyes.
“Really!” Xiao Ai looked at Professor Xin with dissatisfaction!
“Okay,” Professor Xin spread his hands helplessly and turned to look at everyone: “Now everyone knows the same amount, so how do we investigate next?”
Subconsciously, everyone looked at Selena, who was thinking with a serious expression.
Silence, silence again.
Selena slowly raised her head and looked at Xiao Ai: “Xiao Ai!”
Xiao Ai looked at Selena strangely: “Xiao Ai is here!”
“Your analysis…” Selena frowned subconsciously.
Xiao Ai put her hands behind her back and looked at Selena curiously.
“That’s a big problem!”
Chapter 56: There is no antidote to this poison! (Old version)
“What?” Xiao Ai wasn’t sure if she had heard it wrong: “How could that be? Xiao Ai assures me that this is definitely a comprehensive analysis of all circumstances!”
Selena narrowed her eyes suspiciously, scanned the whole place, and then looked at Xiao Ai again: “Then please tell me, whose situation did you combine to deliberately avoid the key point!?”
Instantly! Everyone’s eyes were focused on Xiao Ai.
Xiao Ai actually blushed, and she put her hands behind her back and twisted them together: “Xiao Ai doesn’t understand what you are saying!”
“Okay, then I’ll tell you what I’m talking about!” Selena stood up and tapped the blackboard with the wand in her hand like a pointer. “I want to remind everyone that this is an incident caused by Professor Xin being poisoned. This is the most fundamental situation. What we should consider here is how Professor Xin was poisoned, who poisoned him, and whether Professor Xin is safe now! Isn’t that right?”
“This…” Xiao Ai subconsciously leaned to the side.
“If you didn’t avoid the point, then please tell me, why didn’t you analyze such an important matter in detail, but instead said lightly, ‘It’s not very clear now, so let’s put it aside for now’, and then never mentioned it again?” Selena stared at Xiao Ai, following Xiao Ai’s evasive eyes, and looked at Professor Xin next to her!
“That’s enough!” Professor Xin rubbed his head and looked at Selena helplessly: “Why are you making things difficult for her? Didn’t you realize that I asked her to do this?”
“Why?” Xiaopo asked this question on behalf of the other children who still had not caught up.
“Because we can’t figure it out!” Professor Xin said as if it was a matter of course: “Should we let the children worry about whether it was you or Hermione who poisoned them, or let them worry about what happened to me? Shouldn’t we analyze the conspiracy behind it? Shouldn’t we focus more on the clues given by the prophet? Shouldn’t we think carefully about the situation that Xiaopo encountered at that time? There is no need to waste more energy on these irrelevant things…”
“How can it be insignificant?” Selena slammed her hand on the podium and looked at Professor Xin with dissatisfaction: “If you can’t find out the method of poisoning, can you guarantee that Xiaopo or others will not fall victim to the same method next time? If you can’t find out who did it, can you guarantee that person won’t do it to others again? If you are not sure whether you have solved the poison now…”
“Calm down, Selena!”
Professor Xin looked at Selena somewhat awkwardly. What’s going on with this little girl today?
“Okay, then answer my next question honestly!” Selena pointed her wand directly at Professor Xin, with sparks coming out of the tip of the wand.
“No problem!” Professor Xin raised his hands honestly.
Hermione smiled, moved aside with a feeling of helplessness and gloating.
“Go ahead!” Selena suppressed her anger and put down her wand.
“Why don’t you ask?” Professor Xin slammed his hand on the table!
Albus laughed, but Selena glared back at him. Albus tried hard to put away his smile and look serious, but the other boys, including Scorpius, seemed to have the urge to laugh to some extent.
The girls were fine, although they listened attentively, but it was obvious that, except for Selena herself, the other children had not yet realized the seriousness of the matter! Or maybe they had some awareness, but did not really understand what they were facing! ?
They seemed to just want to listen to the story, to know the cause and effect, and then to continue their Hogwarts life!
However, Hogwarts is no longer the ivory tower that is aloof from worldly affairs!
It’s time to let them know that this is not a farce, and they should not let their guard down just because Professor Xin doesn’t care!
We should have been nervous since before Christmas, no, to be more precise, since all the sensational events emerged in society!
What is DA? It is an organization that protects everyone and says no to power! This has already determined one of the attributes of DA – a resistance organization!
The road to resisting an organization is always full of difficulties and obstacles!
Selena slammed the table hard and swept a stern look over everyone in the room.
The children looked at Selena on the stage with some surprise.
What’s going on?
For a moment, Xiaopo felt that Selena seemed very similar to Professor McGonagall in the movie!
Ignoring the children’s inquiring gazes, Selena looked at Professor Xin seriously: “Have you cured the poison?”
“Tell the truth?” Professor Xin asked carefully!
Selena angrily took out the DA’s parchment list!
“Calm down!” Professor Xin stood up with the help of the table, and stretched his hand forward. Professor Xin had seen that this time, Selena was going to do it for real: “The poison has not been resolved yet!”
“ah!?”
Xiaopo looked at Professor Xin in surprise, and all the children finally understood what Selena was nervous about!
The poison has not been solved yet? Are you kidding me? The poison has not been solved yet and you are still chatting and laughing here! Professor Xin, you are so carefree!
“Shut up!” Professor Xin didn’t even look at Xiaopo. He still raised his hand and looked at Selena: “Calm down, put the list away. I am a member who has been tested by the organization, right?”
Selena’s wand was still pointed steadily at the parchment!
However, the other DAs are already furious!
“What are you still doing here?” Albus asked in disbelief.
“Then where can I go?” Professor Xin yelled angrily!
“The school infirmary!” Jaina replied hurriedly, “No, no!”
“St. Mungo’s!” Winice stood up anxiously: “I’ll contact my grandmother right away. She has…”
“I’ll go with you!” Lily also stood up hurriedly.
For a moment, the classroom was in chaos!
Professor Xin looked at Hermione helplessly, and the meaning of his eyes was: Why don’t you say something?
Hermione spread her hands helplessly, clearly saying: I told you this would happen!
In the silent communication, Selena finally put away the parchment, walked up to the two men, and told them with her eyes: I knew there was something wrong with you two!
“Ahem…” Hermione coughed helplessly twice to ease the embarrassment: “Dear students, please be patient!”
Professor Xin also dodged and grabbed the two girls who were about to rush out of the classroom: “What are you panicking about!”
Perhaps, the only one who can remain calm at this moment is CG!
CG took out his tablet computer, tapped it with his finger, and shared the screen on the podium: “H53NB47 poison, search results, no results yet!”
For a moment, the room fell silent.
But it just quieted down, and everyone didn’t seem to fully realize the meaning of this meaningless thing!
“You want to use the public network to find military poisons, are you kidding me?” Professor Xin joked, trying to get away with it. But he had already subconsciously let go of Lily and Winice’s hands, and slowly walked towards CG, with a look of restraint that was obvious in his eyes.
CG didn’t even raise his head, and continued in that emotionless voice: “I can’t tell you where it came from, and I can’t tell you how toxic it is, but I can tell you one thing, the antidote to this poison…”
Professor Xin’s face gradually became serious.
CG paused, looked at Professor Xin, and said the last two words: “None yet!”
None! Still None! But this time, even the dumbest people would understand what it meant!
“In other words?” Xiaopo’s eyes widened as he looked at Professor Xin: “This poison! There is no antidote?!”
Winice covered her mouth immediately!
Albus looked at CG anxiously!
Professor Xin rose from the ground and slashed at CG with a knife!
The robe fluttered, and a strong wind blew! CG did not dodge, but looked directly at Professor Xin and stood up!
There was no rush, no dodging. CG believed that the man in front of him, who also had the Mockingjay badge, would not do anything to him!
Professor Xin landed on the ground, and his iron palm stopped abruptly in front of CG’s face!
Professor Xin snorted coldly, suppressing his anger: “Where did you get this information from?!”
CG didn’t answer.
“Idiot!” Selena cursed sarcastically.
Xiaopo quickly pulled Professor Xin aside and whispered in Professor Xin’s ear: “That organization, that organization, you should have heard of it!”
Professor Xin looked at Xiaopo in confusion, until he saw Hermione next to him, then he realized: “Is this kid a member of that organization?”
“Of course not!” Almost unanimous answers came from the mouths of the DAs.
But the look in Albus and Little Bro’s eyes clearly said: No, understand? “No”!
“Your acting skills are shit!” Professor Xin cursed helplessly: “Refund the tickets!”
The atmosphere seemed to have eased a little, but…
Is this something to be concerned about right now?
You’ve been poisoned, haven’t you? There’s no antidote!
Could you please stop changing the subject all the time!
Can you prioritize?
“So,” CG started again, “you were poisoned…”
“I can’t solve it.” Professor Xin laughed at himself, sat down again, took out the wine flask from his waist and took a few sips: “So, don’t waste your time!”
The expressions on the children’s faces suddenly became solemn.
Winice seemed to be trying hard to hold back her tears, and Lily beside her didn’t react for a long time.
until……
“Okay, come back and sit down.” Professor Xin waved his hand and said nonchalantly, “What are you afraid of? You won’t die!”
“H53NB47 poison!” CG’s voice sounded again, his tone gloomy, like the death knell of the god of death: “You will die!”
Surprised voices rang out from the girls! Lily, who had just sat down, stood up suddenly, and Winice, who was covering her mouth, burst into tears!
“Bullshit!”
The impudent voice echoed in the classroom. Professor Xin stood up and squatted beside Winnies. He gently wiped away Winnies’ tears: “If I say you can’t die, you can’t die! Believe me!”
Is this still the same sloppy Professor Xin? How could the unkempt Professor Xin have such a gentle side?
But the shocked children no longer cared about that. Now, they were all waiting for an answer!
Professor Xin stood up, took a sip of wine, shook his head helplessly, and came to the side of the stunned Xiaopo. He pulled Xiaopo’s chin with his hand and helped him close his wide-open mouth. For the first time, he said in such a serious tone: “Thanks to this child, I really can’t die. He left a magic power in my body, which trapped all the poisons.”
“Me?” Xiaopo pointed at himself in disbelief.
“Black Crystal?” CG looked over in confusion and thought of only one possibility.
“Who knows?” Professor Xin shook his head: “It’s a very pure magical power. In short, it’s under control.”
“Control means,” Selena seemed to have heard the key to the problem: “Can’t take it out?”
Professor Xin nodded and looked at Selena indifferently: “That’s why I don’t want to tell you, trouble!”
After gulping down a few more gulps of wine, Professor Xin flicked her sleeves with a heroic gesture, and looked at the children who had gone from sadness to joy to helplessness, and who had withered in an instant after experiencing too many emotions, and a smile appeared on her face. I don’t know if it was because of the kindness of these children, or because these children really regarded her as a friend.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little strange.
Fortunately…
Hiccup~
A big burp!
Selena waved her hands in front of her face in dissatisfaction: “Can’t you be more serious!”
“Hahahaha!” Professor Xin laughed wantonly, so ostentatiously: “When life is good, you should enjoy it to the fullest! That’s what my ancestors said! Okay, next question!”
“That’s Li Bai, okay!?” Xiao Po rolled his eyes and fanned himself vigorously in front of him with his hands, trying to drive away the unpleasant smell of alcohol.
Professor Xin hugged Xiaopo and handed the wine bottle to him: “Want a drink?!”
“That’s enough!” Selena shouted angrily, “Who poisoned you?”
Chapter 57 Hermione’s Logic Lesson ~ (Old Version)
“How should I know?” Professor Xin let go of Little Bro and turned to look at Selena. Professor Xin seriously suspected that Selena was deliberately making things difficult for her, and pointed at Little Bro and Hermione: “He gave this wine as a gift, she bought it, and I drank it. It was still unopened when the fake Hagrid came!”
Selena’s brows furrowed even deeper, and she seemed to feel uncomfortable being stared at by Selena. Professor Xin slammed the table and looked at Xiaopo and Hermione beside him: “Tell me! Why did you two poison me?!”
Hermione was fine, she was still able to keep smiling, but the expression on Little Broke’s face was so wonderful!
“Stop it! Can you act like a professor?” Selena scolded in dissatisfaction, and then looked at Xiaopo: “Who knew that you were going to send wine to Professor Xin?”
“Only Professor Granger!” Xiaopo replied quickly.
“Are you sure?” Selena looked at Xiaopo.
“Sure!” Xiaopo nodded seriously.
“If it hadn’t been opened by then, it wouldn’t have been the work of that fake Hagrid, but…” Selena muttered softly, tapping her wand on her palm from time to time, sparks emitting from time to time: “This shouldn’t be…”
“Admit it!” Hermione suddenly knocked on the table and looked at Professor Xin: “Why did you poison yourself!”
“Me?” Professor Xin imitated Xiaopo and pointed at himself.
“Don’t imitate me!” Xiaopo rolled his eyes helplessly, imitating Selena.
Then Selena slapped him hard on the head!
Hermione smiled and stood up and walked to the front of the stage. Suddenly, everyone seemed to be back in the logic class. “Alright, cheer up! Selena’s logic is correct. Now that the poison in Professor Xin’s body has been controlled, the key point becomes finding the person who poisoned him! I remember when I was talking to you about clue reasoning, I mentioned that if you find that your train of thought has reached a point where it can no longer be continued, what should you do?”
“The case is repeated.” The top student Scorpius answered from below, but he still subconsciously looked at Professor Xin.
“The poison hasn’t been removed yet…” Winice muttered softly, lying helplessly on the table.
Professor Xin didn’t know how he did it, but he stretched out his hand and ruffled Winice’s hair…
“That’s right,” Hermione smiled and didn’t care. She took out her wand and tapped it lightly on Professor Xin’s tablet: “Everyone, please stand up~”
The 3D image appeared in the center of the podium. In front of him, at another point in time, Little Brontë and Selena were looking at the Forbidden Forest nervously, and the fake Hagrid was slowly walking out…
Hermione pointed her wand and the scene froze. In an instant, the tables, chairs and benches disappeared, the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom disappeared, and everyone seemed to have come to the snowy field next to the hut outside the Forbidden Forest.
The children who had already stood up quickly put on their scarves and hats again. CG summoned the Hermander grass to warm everyone~
“Is there such a thing?” Professor Xin looked at the scene in front of him with some surprise, and then looked at Hermione.
Xiao Po looked at himself who looked exactly the same in front of him, and stretched out his hand in surprise, but he touched nothing. Everything was like the memories in the Pensieve. No, it was clearer and safer than memories because it was completely untouchable and would not have any unstable effects due to interference from various magics!
Hermione still kept smiling as she checked every corner around the venue gracefully and calmly.
Demonstrating, explaining, and reviewing those knowledge points.
The pattern of shadows falling at this time of the sun; the effect of weight on the snow; the movement of treetops in this breeze…
The wand flicked, the scene continued, and the clear sound of conversation reached everyone’s ears.
Only after the fake Hagrid exclaimed, “What a nice man!” did the lifelike fake Hagrid take big strides towards the door.
“What did you see?” Hermione looked at everyone.
“According to the known information, the real Professor Hagrid should still be in France at this time.” Winice raised her hand weakly, and then quickly corrected: “No, no, the owl letter should have been received by now, so the real Professor Hagrid should be on his way to the Ministry of Magic!”
“Correct! 5 points for Hufflepuff!” Hermione nodded in appreciation and then looked at the other children: “And…”
“And, the Ministry of Magic has also received the news and is on the way!” Albus raised his hand and added!
But then, Scorpius corrected him: “Not really!”
Albus looked at Scorpius in confusion.
Scorpius looked around. “We can’t be sure that they have received the news now, because Kingsley and the Inspectorate arrived suddenly by abnormal means. In other words…”
“They are here already, hiding somewhere?” Trod said halfway, looking towards the Forbidden Forest nervously: “In the Forbidden Forest?”
“Not necessarily!” Hermione shook her head. “If the Ministry of Magic has the means to enter Hogwarts without permission, then they don’t necessarily need to hide. And the timing of their appearance is so perfect, which can only mean that they are monitoring this place through some means. But it doesn’t matter anymore, because no matter what, they are silently waiting for everything to happen at this moment!”
“In other words?” Xiaopo raised his hand, suppressing the anger in his heart: “They could have stopped everything! But they chose…”
“What a bunch of scum!” Albus kicked the stone next to him hard, venting his dissatisfaction.
“Okay!” Seeing that the children were in a bad mood, Hermione reminded them, “Please return to our current analysis. Regardless of whether the Ministry of Magic can stop everything, since Kingsley and his Inspectorate are just silently waiting for things to happen, we have reason to believe that this time, it is not their work, not to mention…”
“What’s more…” Selena did not take over the conversation, but calmly pointed her wand at Professor Xin in the holographic image: “That bottle of wine has not been opened yet!”
A striking red frame outlines the shape of the wine bottle.
“Correct! Five points for Gryffindor!” Hermione smiled and nodded, tapping her wand on the tablet. In the surprised eyes of everyone including Professor Xin, she picked up the bottle of wine formed by the holographic image: “Please pay attention to this!”
“How did you do that?” Professor Xin looked at Hermione in surprise and asked subconsciously.
Hermione smiled and didn’t answer, continuing the previous topic: “According to normal analysis, the fake Professor Hagrid is the most suspicious! After all, inexplicable approach always needs a purpose! But the bottle of wine is not opened now. Under the nose of Professor Xin, even I can’t cast magic on a bottle of well-packaged wine. I think the level of others should be the same. Therefore, this bottle of wine has either been poisoned, or someone poisoned it after Xiaopo left! If it is already poisoned, I am very curious, how did the person who poisoned it know that this bottle of wine was for Professor Xin. If it is the latter, then how did this person come to Hogwarts?!”
Hermione paused for a moment to let the children digest what she had just said. Although Xiao Ai did not show up, she was still considerate enough to set aside a blackboard in the holographic image and write down the key points of Hermione’s analysis.
No one answered, so Hermione continued with a smile, “I would like to draw everyone’s attention. In addition to the two points just mentioned, there is another hidden doubt that needs your attention. That is, if the purpose of this fake Hagrid is not to poison, then what is the reason for his coming here!?”
The sound of chalk scratching on the blackboard rang out again, and new key points appeared on the blackboard, but there was clearly no chalk!
However, at this time, no one cared about these small details of Xiao Ai. Everyone’s attention was focused on thinking about these issues!
Everyone, including Selena, frowned. No one expected Hermione to give a direct answer. They were thinking and analyzing. This was the meaning of logic class.
“Since no one has any clue,” Hermione’s voice sounded again without giving them too much time: “Let’s do it again!”
With a tap of the magic wand, the characters in the picture moved backwards and returned to where they had just started.
“This time, please focus on the details around you.”
After that, the scene continued. Hermione’s wand trembled, and Hagrid’s mouth was still repeating the same lines, but this time, everyone could only hear the sound of the wind, the snow, and the rustling of the Forbidden Forest.
“Is the background volume turned up?” Selena discovered the problem.
“There is such a thing!” Professor Xin was surprised and snatched Selena’s wand and started to check. A small audio interface appeared next to it, with various waveforms arranged in an orderly manner.
“Muggles really are…” Albus exclaimed in surprise.
“Shh!” Selena snatched back the wand in dissatisfaction and then made a gesture to keep quiet.
The scene remains the same, and the fake Hagrid leaves.
“What did you see?” This time, Professor Xin asked first.
It was Selena who answered: “One more time?”
Hermione nodded, and the scene repeated again and again. The children drew their wands and clicked and zoomed in on the places they thought were suspicious. They checked the forbidden forest, the cabin, and even the soles of Hagrid’s shoes, slowing down the scene frame by frame, repeating it again and again.
After repeating this for who knows how many times, Professor Xin took out his tablet and started fighting with Albus Scorpius in the game!
Hermione coughed lightly.
Xiaopo secretly pulled Professor Racine’s clothes.
Only then did Professor Xin realize that everyone had returned to the warm classroom.
“Haha, um,” Professor Xin put away the tablet awkwardly: “How is it? What did you see?”
“Nothing~” Hermione replied with a smile.
“I just said…” Professor Xin rushed to answer.
“So this is the crux of the problem!” Selena’s face was full of certainty.
Hermione smiled and nodded, re-sitting in the seat below.
“I don’t understand…” Jaina shook her head, obviously not understanding.
“I don’t understand either!” Professor Xin gave Jaina a look that said, “It’s okay, me too.”
Jaina was obviously uncomfortable. She felt her intelligence was insulted!
“But we really didn’t find anything. Right?” Trod looked to the side unconfidently.
“Well, there really should be nothing.” Scorpius nodded, equally uncertain: “We have checked everything around us, there must be nothing missing.”
“That’s why I said this is the crux of the matter!” Selena nodded and confirmed the two’s views: “We put all our attention on finding out what was there at that time! And we completely overlooked one point, what was missing there at that time!”
“What’s missing?” Xiaopo asked puzzled.
“Little Bro!” Selena suddenly raised her voice!
“Here!” Xiaopo answered subconsciously.
“Ask questions and answer them quickly! Just tell right from wrong! Don’t overthink!” Selena’s speech suddenly quickened.
Xiaopo was stunned for a moment, then replied: “Okay!”
“He’s good at this!” Professor Xin joked, but Selena glared at him fiercely, so he had to spread his hands and shut his mouth.
“The water is poisonous!”
“wrong!”
“You are a man!”
“right!”
“Professor Xin is stupid!”
“That Hagrid is fake!”
“The bearded man was on campus!”
“Hey!” Professor Xin interrupted unhappily, “There’s something wrong with your question!”
CG raised his hand to signal Professor Xin to wait a moment.
Trod had already asked, “Why is it wrong for the bearded man to be on campus at that time?”
“Uh,” Xiaopo was stuck, thinking for a long time, and then slapped his forehead: “This answer is wrong! I subconsciously felt that he was not there, because I saw him and me in the dream, no, it was another me, no, I’m not sure who it was, anyway, it was with another person, in some other place! But in fact, it was just a dream. Later it was proved that it was not true. So I just said…”
“Who said it’s not true!” Selena suddenly interrupted Xiaopo, holding up the tablet, pointing at the picture after Hagrid left, and pointing at the empty space: “If Bearded Man is here, who can tell me where he is?”
“Hidden in the Forbidden Forest, or somewhere else!” Xiaopo answered subconsciously.
“No!” Trod frowned: “We checked…”
“Nowhere!” Selena answered.
“Could it be possible that he has become invisible?” Lily pointed her finger at her chin and looked at Albus as if she had suddenly realized something. “Albus! Your invisibility cloak! The invisibility cloak that was lost in the Forbidden Forest! Bearded Man frequently appears in the Forbidden Forest, he must have got your invisibility cloak! No wonder he can come and go in the campus freely, he got the invisibility cloak!”
“What!” Albus slammed the table and stood up excitedly.
“Calm down! Albus!” Selena waved her hand calmly, pointing at the snow on the screen: “I’m not sure if he really got the invisibility cloak. But if he is really under the invisibility cloak, then where are his footprints? The fake Hagrid is a refined beast, and refined beasts cannot leave their masters too far, so where is he?”
“Can the invisibility cloak hide footprints!?” Albus said somewhat unsurely.
“No.” Hermione shook her head. Hermione had used the invisibility cloak many times in the past.
“So,” Xiaopo seemed to realize something, “Beard was not on campus at that time!”
“No!” Hermione nodded, as if she felt it was time to give everyone some further information. Hermione paused and then said, “He went to Azkaban!”
Chapter 58 The Only Possibility 1 (Old Version)
My little brain buzzed. Azkaban, could that dream be true? But CG was clearly in the hut! Could it be that the one in the dream wasn’t CG? If it wasn’t CG, then who was it? Why could I see other people?
“Xiaopo?”
Selena’s soft cry made Xiaopo pay attention to his surroundings again.
Everyone looked at Xiaopo in surprise.
“Why not?” Selena asked puzzledly.
“What’s impossible?” Xiaopo was still a little confused.
“What you just said is impossible.” Selena looked at Xiaopo in confusion.
“Me?” Xiaopo shook his head: “Did I say it’s impossible?”
Xiaopo subconsciously looked at CG. CG did not answer, but the others around him subconsciously nodded.
“So why is it impossible?” Selena repeated the question.
“Because, because…” Xiaopo muttered, his mind was in a mess. He had clearly grasped a thread, but suddenly countless threads popped out.
As if seeing Xiaopo’s helplessness, CG answered for Xiaopo: “The refining beast cannot be too far away from its master!”
“That’s it!” Xiaopo, as if he had found a life-saving straw, quickly responded.
“That only means one thing! The owner of the refining beast…” Selena paused and looked at Professor Xin.
“It must be someone else!” Professor Xin was a little surprised, and then a rare serious expression appeared on his face: “I was wondering how he could get such an exotic beast that only exists in the East.”
“Who could that be?” Trod asked.
“Wait,” Albus suddenly raised his hand: “Aren’t we investigating the bearded man? Why are we investigating who has a refined beast?”
“No! What we want to investigate is not the bearded man! But the person who poisoned!” Scorpius obviously followed the train of thought, and his brain was quick enough: “If the bearded man was really in Azkaban at that time, then the man with the refined beast is very likely the real poisoner! And…”
“Anyone who can get a beast like the Refined Beast has a high chance of getting the military’s poison!” Jaina completed the rest of Scorpius’ words and pounded her fist hard on her palm: “Everything is right!”
“That’s right!” Lily looked at Jaina excitedly!
Professor Xin looked at the children who were peeling off the layers of the mystery with some surprise, and swallowed subconsciously!
“Who are the strange beasts and poisons from the East?” Winice muttered.
“Looking at it this way, it can only be me!” Professor Xin pointed at himself helplessly and slammed the table in dissatisfaction: “Are you kidding me? I’m the one who was poisoned! Is that how you reasoned?”
“If you weren’t poisoned, I’d be 100% sure it was you!” Selena slammed the table, showing no mercy. “But judging by the current situation, it’s unlikely to be you.”
“No!” CG shook his head: “It could also be a way to clear suspicion!”
“Hey!” Professor Xin looked at CG with dissatisfaction: “I’ve been annoyed with you for a long time, let’s fight!”
CG looked at Selena and ignored Professor Xin’s provocation again!
Professor Xin’s dissatisfaction turned into anger in an instant, and he rolled up his sleeves: “Don’t stop me today…”
“Stop it!” Selena glared at Professor Xin and looked at CG seriously: “You are right!”
“Hey! You two!” Professor Xin, who had just sat down, shouted angrily, “I am also a patient after all!”
“You don’t look like a patient at all~” Albus rolled his eyes and muttered softly.
“……” Professor Xin’s mouth opened and closed silently!
“You’re right. There is a possibility of this in order to distance oneself from the matter. This could be a conspiracy!” Selena repeated, looking at CG, and then at the others, including Hermione: “But, if I hadn’t discovered the abnormality that morning, if Xiaopo’s magic didn’t have this special feature, if it had been anyone else, Professor Xin would have been dead. Who would base a plan involving life and death on so many coincidences? Even if you have to take a risk, would you choose to try an unsolvable poison? Even in the best case scenario now, the poison is still in Professor Xin’s body! Don’t forget, control means that it cannot be taken out, cannot be resolved, and even…”
Selena paused and subconsciously looked at Professor Xin.
For a moment, Professor Xin once again became the focus of the audience.
Professor Xin rubbed his hair awkwardly and said nonchalantly: “It may even relapse at any time, it’s nothing.”
After saying that, he picked up the wine jug and took a big gulp.
CG thought for a moment and looked at Professor Xin very seriously: “Sorry~”
“Hahaha! It’s okay, it’s okay!” Professor Xin laughed loudly and looked at the children one by one: “What? I said it’s okay? Don’t act like I’m going to die! This is just the beginning. There will always be a time to ride the wind and waves! My ancestors said so!”
“That’s Li Bai! Please!” Xiaopo helplessly lifted Professor Xin above his head and pulled down the hand holding the wine jug: “How did you pass the Chinese language exam in elementary school?”
Professor Xin smiled and hugged Xiaopo, and took another big sip. The strong smell of alcohol made Xiaopo feel very uncomfortable.
When Xiaopo broke free from Professor Xin’s clutches, CG had already returned to his seat. Under the leadership of Professor Xin, the children’s mood no longer seemed to be low.
“That is to say, as long as we find the person who controls the refined beast, we will find the person who poisoned it!” Winice raised her hand weakly: “But how do we find this person?”
“Use the known clues!” Hermione looked at Winice with a smile, as if she was waiting for the students to find the answers themselves in class.
“The refining beast cannot leave its master too far!” Jaina added excitedly.
“So as long as we find out who is present every time a refined beast appears, we can find that person!” Scorpius made the final summary!
“Correct! 5 points for Slytherin!” Hermione nodded encouragingly.
“The first time was on the train, with the Dementor,” Lily said, raising her hand.
“There’s no way to check that time, there were too many people!” Albus frowned: “Besides us, there was a whole train of people!”
“But there were only three of us who left the train: Xiaopo, Professor Xin and me!” CG added calmly.
“There must have been other people around at the time!” Jaina added decisively.
“Yes, we saw the bearded man, so we always thought that he was the one with the refining beast.” Xiaopo nodded: “But now if we rule out the bearded man…”
“Tell me, which one of you two is bringing the refining beast!” Professor Xin slammed the table, but his eyes were fixed on CG.
Xiaopo was helpless for no reason. Didn’t CG just say that you had a problem, and he apologized. This is too obvious! You said you were still a patient? It’s a pity that Winnies cried for you. What’s wrong with you being so lively? It’s outrageous!
“Shut up!!!” Selena scolded angrily and glared at Professor Xin: “The second time…”
“The second time was the Slug Club meeting.” Professor Xin raised two fingers and answered first.
“Yes,” Albus rubbed his head, “but there were a lot of people that time too!”
“That’s not the point!” Selena looked at Scorpius and Lily helplessly. Her eyes were full of: How can you tolerate such an IQ?
“Even though there are a lot of people, just compare them with those who were present every time. What’s more, there was this time! People who were present three times…” Scorpius came to Albus’s rescue, but as he spoke he found that he could no longer continue.
because……
“There are only you and Professor Xin!” CG completed the rest of Scorpius’ words.
“And Bearded Man! Bearded Man showed up the last two times, I saw him!” Xiaopo said subconsciously, but then he realized that something was wrong. This time, Bearded Man was not there! He showed up in Azkaban!
For a moment, it seemed that we were at a stalemate again.
The classroom was silent, and subconsciously, the children looked at Hermione, the professor who taught them logical reasoning.
Hermione smiled and looked at the student who was still thinking with his head down.
After a long while, Selena slowly raised her head and asked in an uncertain tone, “Can the owner of the refining beast be changed?”
“That’s right!” Xiaopo slapped his forehead and said, “Why didn’t I think of that? If it was possible to change the master, then the first two times it would definitely be Bearded Man! But the third time, Bearded Man changed the master of the Refining Beast!”
“No!” Professor Xin answered with certainty.
Chapter 58 The Only Possibility 2 (Old Version)
Xiaopo’s heart suddenly hung in the air! It wasn’t the bearded man, it wasn’t Professor Xin, could it really be him? Did he faint again? After fainting, he summoned the Refining Beast? Although it was a fantasy, weren’t there enough fantasy stories that happened to him?
The atmosphere in the classroom became strangely depressing, and something called suspicion was growing little by little!
“Could it be me again?” Xiaopo subconsciously expressed his thoughts.
“Don’t talk nonsense!” Selena glared at Xiaopo: “There must be others.”
“It must be! We just haven’t found it yet.” Albus agreed, but he didn’t have much confidence.
“But if all the impossibilities have been ruled out, then the remaining result, no matter how outrageous, can only be the truth. Professor Granger said.” Little Po muttered unconfidently, raised his head and looked at Hermione for help.
But! What else can we do? The first two times were fine, but what happened the third time? Could it be that the bearded man who appeared in Azkaban was also fake!
How is it possible? But the next second, Xiaopo subconsciously thought that it was not impossible! After all, the CG that should appear in Azkaban was actually in Hogwarts. What about the bearded man? But Professor Granger was very sure that the bearded man appeared in Azkaban!
Wait, how did Professor Granger know that Bearded Man appeared in Azkaban?
Xiao Po shook his head violently, and stopped thinking about it. Professor Granger must have her own source of information! If Professor Granger wanted to deal with him, she would have countless opportunities to do so!
Hermione smiled and tapped the blackboard, prompting the students to look over: “Who said you have ruled out all possibilities?! Among the possibilities mentioned above, are some of your conclusions completely beyond doubt?”
For a moment, the children fell silent again, thinking about the summary speeches they had just made.
With the cooperation of Xiao Ai, all the key points that everyone has just summarized have been listed on the blackboard:
1.The real Professor Hagrid is on his way to the Ministry of Magic.
2. The Ministry of Magic is monitoring the situation at Hogwarts and is watching developments somewhere.
3. The fake Hagrid (the refining beast) did not poison, but he must have had other purposes.
4. Finding the owner of the refined beast means finding the person who poisoned it.
5. The bearded man is not the owner of the refined beast. He is in Azkaban now.
6. There are only two people who appear all three times the Refining Beast appears: Professor Xin and Xiao Po!
The classroom was silent, with the only sound in the classroom being the rustling of chalk across the blackboard.
“Why not change our thinking?” Just when everyone was at a loss, Hermione’s voice suddenly sounded: “If we can’t find the same person in the three incidents, we might as well compare the three times to see what is the same. For example, the person who benefits the most, the people who are affected, the environmental conditions, etc.”
“Who benefited from this?” Jaina muttered, “If it wasn’t the bearded man, then it could only be the Ministry of Magic? They really succeeded in catching you this time.”
“No,” Lily shook her head, “The Ministry of Magic let them out. What’s more, the Ministry of Magic was not involved the first time, and the second time even caused the Ministry of Magic to lose its reputation.”
“What about the people affected? It seems that Xiaopo is among them.” Winice looked at Xiaopo.
“No,” Scorpius shook his head seriously. “The first time it was aimed at Xiaopo, that’s right. But starting from the second time, it was no longer aimed at a specific person. The Refining Beast seemed to just want to cause chaos at the time, and this time it even started to use poison.”
“So the only thing left is the environmental conditions?” Albus tried to think: “The first time was on the Hogwarts Express, the second time was in the square, and the third time was in the hut. There doesn’t seem to be any connection…”
“Except one thing!” Trod seemed to have thought of something.
Selena nodded affirmatively!
“Three times, the restrictions of Hogwarts seem to have lost their effectiveness!” Trod added: “Whether it is next to the express or inside the Hogwarts school, it is not a place that can be easily broken into.”
“But what does this prove?” Albus’s brain was not enough again!
“This means that person can easily break through the various restrictions of Hogwarts!” Scorpius said with some surprise.
“Professor?!” Lily gave a conclusion with some surprise.
“It’s possible…” Hermione reminded.
“The backdoor left by the Inspectorate!” Selena glanced at several people, and the look of praise for a job well done seemed to carry a hint of, I know you have tried your best.
“That’s right!” Hermione nodded and gave a definite answer.
“Ministry of Magic!!!” No matter how dumb Albus was, he understood now. He slapped the table and stood up, pointing to the second item on the blackboard: “The Ministry of Magic is not just watching how things develop! Since they can monitor the situation in Hogwarts, they have a way to know that Professor Granger bought this bottle of wine to give to Professor Sheen! They know! They knew it all a long time ago! This has been carefully planned from the beginning! They can find the old blue man from the East, and they can get the refined beast and the poison from the East! So they can tell the name of the poison as soon as they meet! Because it is them who poisoned it! They left restrictions in the school and along the express line! So no matter how carefully we search, it will be useless. They can easily avoid us with these restrictions! Whether it is the fake Hagrid or It’s the bearded man. The reason he showed up is to attract our attention so that they can hide in the dark! They only targeted Little Broke at first, but when Principal McGonagall stood up against them, they started to target everyone in Hogwarts! The refined beasts began to attack students indiscriminately! Isn’t it? ! Everything is right! Everything is right! Such a vicious plan! But they blamed everything on the note sent by the prophet! Bullshit! I guess if there was no warning from the prophet, they would not let you go! Even if the real Professor Hagrid stood in front of them, it proved that there was a big problem! The Ministry of Magic planned everything by itself, but just used the excuse of the message sent by the prophet to push everything away! This group of scum! Bastards! Trash! Shameless scum!”
As Albus continued to yell and curse, the children, who had already figured out the whole story, became very excited. Professor Xin looked at the children in surprise, and then looked at CG with even more surprise for being able to remain calm at a time like this. He didn’t know what to say for a moment.
The Ministry of Magic’s plan? This is what’s been conquered?
Is this the DA?
“These,” Hermione raised her hand to stop Albus from continuing to swear, and shook her head helplessly, “are just our inferences! There is no evidence!”
“Who said there is no evidence!” Selena stood up, her voice becoming more resolute: “As long as there is a spell, there will be clues left! Don’t forget! The places where the refined beasts appear are all in the forest! And after the last thorough investigation of Hogwarts, the only blind spot left is there!”
Following the direction of Selena’s finger, everyone looked out the window!
“Let’s go.” CG stood up calmly, straightened his school robe, and looked at Selena.
Selena’s brows relaxed, and she nodded with a hint of excitement. She patted her mockingjay on her chest, and the magic wand appeared in her hand. She looked at the DAs with her bright eyes!
“Forbidden Forest, let’s go!”
Chapter 59 Let’s Go! (Old Version)
The friction sound of seats and benches was heard, and in just a moment, everyone seemed to be suddenly full of energy!
Albus was the first to rush to the door, yelling at everyone to hurry up!
But at this moment…
“As a professor,” Hermione’s voice rang out from the podium, “I should remind you that the dangers of doing this are obvious!”
Albus, with his hand already on the door handle, looked towards the podium in disbelief.
“But as a DA,” Hermione looked at the children and walked quickly to the door. A smile appeared on Hermione’s face, and the mockingjay badge appeared on Hermione’s chest without her knowing. “If you are sure, please let me go in front. At least, I can protect you!”
Albus’s surprised face instantly broke into a smile, and he said loudly: “Professor Granger, you are not qualified to be a DA if you say that!”
Without any explanation, Albus opened the classroom door and rushed out.
Then it was Scorpius, Trod, Jaina and Lily. Everyone looked at Hermione at the door with a smile, and then walked out silently!
“Professor Granger,” Winice pulled Hermione’s robe weakly, “There is no one protecting anyone in the DA! We are all DA! We will protect ourselves, everyone, and you! This is the DA!”
Hermione was stunned for three seconds, looked at Winice who had caught up with Lily with a smile, and then smiled!
DA?
Xiaopo, Selena, and CG walked by one after another!
A strong smell of alcohol came, Hermione turned her head to look~
“Let’s go!” Professor Xin covered the wine flask. “These kids are great! Next semester, would you like to consider letting them study with us for an exchange semester?”
Hermione smiled, didn’t answer, and looked out the window at the bright sunshine. It didn’t seem like a bad thing to look at it more.
The future of these children is limitless!
“Don’t rush to answer, there is a long time to come!” Professor Xin’s voice came from outside the classroom.
Is there a long time to come? But how much time do you have left for your children?
Hermione shook her head, looked at the empty classroom, drew out her wand, followed the children’s footsteps, and walked towards the Forbidden Forest!
Although the Forbidden Forest is also within Hogwarts, it still takes some time to walk there from the castle.
However, when the children arrived at the Forbidden Forest, they were shocked to find that the professors who did not go home for Christmas were already waiting there.
“Principal?” Trod shrank back a little, stopped and looked at others.
Albus took a step forward and said loudly: “Principal, you shouldn’t stop us this time! We…”
With a crisp sound, Selena slapped Albus on the back of the head!
“Hey!” Albus yelled angrily.
“Shut up!” Selena glared at Albus: “Look carefully at the professors’ expressions.”
“Expression? What expression?” Albus rubbed the back of his head and looked at Professor McGonagall.
This time, no one answered, because Professor McGonagall had already stepped forward to greet the DAs who were rushing over. Looking at the shining mockingjays on their chests, she did not use the kind of politeness between professors and students. For the first time, she came before the children as an equal: “You are here after all. Are you sure you have thought it through?”
“Of course!” Albus answered first.
Professor McGonagall smiled and looked at Xiaopo: “What about you, kid?”
“I?”
Xiaopo looked at the principal who @ed him with some surprise. To be honest, he felt a little guilty. But when he noticed the encouraging eyes beside him, Xiaopo’s signature silly smile appeared on his face again. He looked at CG, Professor Xin, and every DA, and answered very straightforwardly: “Of course!”
The professors were smiling, and in their smiles, I don’t know how much of it was pride in themselves for being able to teach such a student, and how much of it was pride that Hogwarts could produce such a DA!
Professor Xin stood next to the DA first, followed by Hermione who smiled and shook her head. Facing the gazes of other professors, Hermione spread her hands. Her helpless but smiling expression said it all.
At this moment, it seems that any words are redundant!
No one spoke, no one opened their mouths, but Selena had already raised her badge, facing the sun ahead!
“Very good! Very good! Boy…” Professor McGonagall seemed a little excited. The wand in her hand seemed to tremble a little. She corrected the words she had said wrong and turned back to the Forbidden Forest: “Ladies and gentlemen! Let’s go!”
The DAs smiled in tacit understanding, and this time, they didn’t even need Selena’s command, they had already silently lined up.
CG turned his head and looked at everyone behind him, as if he was wondering whether he should try to join them.
But Albus beside him had already smiled and patted CG on the shoulder: “Want to rush forward alone again?”
CG didn’t answer, his eyes showed that he wanted to go, but was also hesitant!
“Go if you want to!” came an encouraging voice. It was Jaina who was already ready.
“We can protect ourselves!” Winice’s weak voice came from the middle of the team.
“Go!” Trod wiped his unique mockingbird with his hand and looked at CG: “You can play a greater role if you act alone!”
“But don’t forget…” Lily reminded.
“We’ve got you covered!” Scorpius added, patting CG’s arm. “If you run into danger, come back! That’s DA!”
CG looked at the group of children next to him with some surprise. When did DA become so tacitly connected?
The professors next to them had the same surprised expressions on their faces, but after the surprise, they felt more relieved!
McGonagall turned and looked at Hermione.
Hermione smiled and shook her head, pointing to her badge with some pride: “I haven’t done anything. I’m just one of them.”
“It’s not me either.” Professor Xin was holding a wine jug with the same silly smile on his face as Xiaopo!
“Go!” Selena’s voice sounded very majestic at this time: “Take Xiaopo with you!”
CG turned his head to see Xiaopo, who was still grinning foolishly but had a black and red flame on his shoulder, and looked at Selena with some concern.
“Don’t worry!” Professor Xin saw CG’s hesitation, snorted in dissatisfaction, took a sip of wine, and looked at Xiaopo: “Show us your skills!”
“How do you know…” Xiaopo looked at Selena and then at Professor Xin with some surprise.
“After you fainted that day, it wasn’t us who saved you, but your own pure magic!” Hermione came to the side of Little Bro, and tentatively touched the black flame on Little Bro’s shoulder with her fingers: “After that, we guessed that, in fact, you can already control this magic. Right?”
Xiaopo nodded, but was a little hesitant!
“What are you afraid of!” Professor Xin shouted, “Don’t forget, it was your magic that stopped the thunder that day! If you can do it that day, you can definitely do it. You just need to let yourself know that you can do it, that’s enough! The rest is left to magic! The essence of magic is your heart!”
Xiaopo nodded vigorously. That’s right! From that day on, the voice in his heart kept shouting, “Yes! He can do it! His magic can do it!”
It’s just that there have been so many things going on these days that I haven’t had time to tell you all yet! So, you already knew?
“You guys,” Xiaopo looked at the other DAs, “You guys also knew about this?”
“Idiot!” Selena cursed.
“How could we possibly know?” Scorpius smiled and stopped Albus who was about to laugh at Little Bro: “But we believe in you!”
Do you trust it?
Xiaopo was a little moved, and his tears were subconsciously a little uncontrollable. This group of people, from the beginning…
“What are you dawdling about? Hurry up!” Albus was impatient and slapped the little boy on the head. But when the little boy raised his head again, he was greeted by a face with the same silly smile as his own: “Come on!”
All of a sudden, a thousand words came into Xiaopo’s mind! But…
What else is there to say? Is there really anything more to say?
How many people in the world can have such a group of friends!
Xiaopo smiled foolishly and shouted with the most powerful momentum: “Okay!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiaopo closed his eyes and concentrated. The next second, black and red flames instantly evaporated, and the strange color faded away. The ominous feeling dissipated, and the purest magic power instantly enveloped everyone!
At this moment, everyone felt only peace in their hearts.
The magic converged, and the magic power turned into a transparent cocoon of light, enveloping everyone.
In the cocoon of light, the pure magic nourishes, fills and soothes everyone’s heart.
The children and professors looked around them in amazement, feeling this magic, so powerful, so pure, yet so peaceful!
Is this the power of the legendary child?
“Brilliant!” Albus roared. “If during the exam…”
“During the exam, we should consider prohibiting Little Bro from sharing magic.” Hermione looked at Professor McGonagall very seriously, but the smile on her face had never faded since she came here.
Professor McGonagall also smiled and nodded: “Okay, let’s go!”
A figure has emerged from the forbidden forest!
The strong muscles, the resolute face, and the bow and arrow in the hand all seem to express the same meaning!
“The Forbidden Forest is our place!”
Chapter 60: Child, can you still see Mars? (Old version)
“Bain.” Professor McGonagall raised her hand and stopped everyone: “The Forbidden Forest is part of Hogwarts.”
Bane didn’t answer, but his heavy breathing and the pounding of his front hooves showed that he was trying hard to suppress the anger in his heart.
Another centaur emerged from the forbidden forest and stood silently beside Bane.
Then, the second, third, and more centaurs stood together with Bane, stamping their hooves, holding bows and arrows, and built a wall of centaurs outside the border of the Forbidden Forest!
“This is outrageous!” Hagrid roared angrily and was about to step forward with a crossbow in hand.
Professor McGonagall raised her hand to stop Hagrid, with her wand already in her hand!
“You guys!” Professor McGonagall looked at the centaurs expressionlessly, her voice full of majesty: “Are you going to stop me?”
“Principal McGonagall!” Bain stepped forward: “Centaurs are always loyal to Hogwarts!”
“But you want to stop the headmaster of Hogwarts?” The majestic voice was filled with anger: “In the eyes of the centaurs, am I as incompetent as Umbridge as the headmaster?”
“Of course not!” Another voice came from the side, and Firenze slowly walked out of the Forbidden Forest: “Your contribution to Hogwarts is obvious to all.”
“Firenze!” Hagrid shouted from the side: “Have you integrated back into the tribe now? Really! But don’t forget who took you in when you were kicked out! I was only away for a few days, you, you dare…”
“Professor Hagrid!” Professor Xin put down the wine flask, strode to the front, and put his hair back with both hands: “It seems that this is my fault for not taking good care of the Forbidden Forest! Then I will use my method to let them know who they should listen to in the Forbidden Forest!”
“No matter who the Forbidden Forest listens to, that person will never be you!” Firenze said the most provocative words in the most polite manner, and even had a smile on his face!
Professor Xin clenched his fists in his hair and made a crackling sound. “Great! Then, let’s have a fight!”
“Enough!” Bain’s angry voice sounded again. He glared at Professor Xin and turned to look at Mag: “We saw a different ending from the starry sky!”
“We are willing to listen,” Professor McGonagall stood straight, “but only after we have thoroughly investigated the Forbidden Forest. Hogwarts can no longer allow anyone to enter and leave Hogwarts so recklessly! The purpose of Hogwarts’ existence is to provide a safe place for children to grow up. We will never allow anyone to use any means…”
“Why don’t you understand?” Bain interrupted Professor McGonagall and shouted helplessly, “Look carefully at the sky. Is there no professor at Hogwarts who can see the future so clearly?”
“The future of Hogwarts has always been in the hands of the people of Hogwarts themselves!” Professor McGonagall replied majestically. Her frail body seemed like a giant that people could only look up to. “Now, as the headmaster of Hogwarts, I order you and all the other centaurs to get out of the way!”
“Centaur!” Bane roared, staring, suppressing his anger: “Never accept orders from any human!”
With a whoosh, all the centaurs raised their bows and arrows in an instant!
Professor Xin and CG flew in front of Professor McGonagall to protect her. Little Pokémon exerted force with his feet, and his speed was only slightly slower than CG!
Hagrid raised his crossbow angrily, and Hermione, other professors, and the DA children raised their wands almost at the same time!
Professor McGonagall separated Professor Sheen and CG in front of her, looked at Bane calmly, and said with determination: “Is this the loyalty of the centaurs?”
“Why……”
A long sigh!
Firenze raised his hand and suppressed the bow and arrow of a centaur beside him, then waved to the farther distance, signaling the other centaurs to put down their bows and arrows.
“All right, Bane!” Firenze pulled Bane’s arm. “Now that things have come to this, the centaurs should no longer interfere with fate.”
Bane glared at Mag angrily for five seconds before loosening his tightly clenched fist. He turned to the side, propped his hands on the tree, lowered his head helplessly, and his heavy breathing blew up the dust on the ground.
When the centaurs saw Bane’s appearance, they silently made way for him, but each of their faces was filled with pain and helplessness!
Firenze sighed again and patted Bane’s shoulder.
Bane shook off Firenze’s hand in disgust.
Firenze smiled, not caring, and seemed to be whispering something to Bane.
“What’s going on? Can’t you just tell me directly?” Hagrid held the crossbow against the ground, roaring in dissatisfaction!
“No!” Bane roared with his head down!
“You!” Hagrid was so angry that he strode forward.
But Firenze had already waved his hand, signaling Hagrid not to be angry with Bane.
Hagrid sat down on a rock beside him angrily and turned his head away.
Firenze shook his head helplessly and came back to McGonagall: “Headmaster, no matter what, the centaurs will be loyal to Hogwarts. I guarantee on the dignity of the centaurs that there is nothing hidden in the Forbidden Forest that will harm Hogwarts. I hope you can think it over carefully.”
“Hogwarts,” Professor McGonagall said in a softer voice. After looking at Bane, she looked at Firenze again: “We must be responsible for all the children who believe in Hogwarts and their parents. We must ensure the safety of the school. Any behavior that violates the ban must be eliminated, Firenze.”
“No one has ever been able to fully grasp the secrets of Hogwarts.” Firenze made a final attempt: “Since so many secret passages are allowed to exist, why bother about those insignificant things in the Forbidden Forest? Besides, the Forbidden Forest is guarded by us and other magical creatures.”
“Insignificant? You call the beast refining insignificant?” Professor Xin was almost laughing out of anger: “If that thing gets angry, it can kill all of you. Bah, all the centaurs!”
“Besides,” Hermione pulled Professor Rasin and explained tactfully, “Hogwarts has never allowed uncontrolled secret passages.”
“Okay!” Firenze looked up at the sky helplessly. When he looked away, he looked at CG and Xiaopo intentionally or unintentionally: “Child of Destiny…”
“What about me?” Xiaopo met Firenze’s gaze: “I will always stand on the side of Hogwarts.”
Firenze smiled and shook his head: “Us too.”
“Then let us pass!” Professor McGonagall put away her wand and looked at Bane with an apologetic yet firm look in her eyes.
Firenze smiled and nodded, silently raising a finger: “One last request.”
“Go ahead!” Professor McGonagall nodded.
Firenze pointed at Xiaopo and CG: “They can’t go in!”
“Why?!” Before Xiaopo and CG could say anything, Albus jumped out and said, “We came here together! Why can’t they go in?”
“Professor?!” CG looked at Firenze in surprise. How could this professor who shared the starry sky classroom with him and taught him to think more be so abnormal today? !
Firenze shook his head, with a trace of regret in his eyes: “Child, can you still see Mars?”
Subconsciously, CG looked up at the sky.
But how can we see the stars in the sky at this moment…
“I can’t see it anymore…” Firenze also raised his head, his tone full of disappointment.
Firenze’s words were like a signal. After hearing them, the other centaurs looked up at the sky in fear. Even Bane, who was far away, looked at Firenze in surprise and quickly raised his head. Then, there was the sound of the centaurs stomping on the ground anxiously.
“Is it too late?” Bane’s tone was helpless. It was the first time he spoke in such an unconfident tone, and even Bane himself was stunned.
However, Firenze was smiling, with a hint of bitterness in his smile. He no longer stopped the professors and children, but walked to Bane with heavy steps and patted Bane on the shoulder. This time, Bane did not dodge.
“Are you still leaving? It’s not too late to leave now.” Firenze asked a question that already had an answer, smiling.
Bain smiled bitterly and shook his head. His tone became dignified and confident again. He walked to Professor McGonagall’s side, bowed slightly, and then raised his arms and shouted: “Centaurs are always loyal to Hogwarts!”
The anxious centaurs suddenly felt like they had a backbone! They all raised their arms and shouted!
Professor McGonagall looked at Bane in surprise!
But Bane had already turned towards the Forbidden Forest: “We’ll take you in!”
The sound of horse hooves rang out, and Bain walked towards the Forbidden Forest first!
Chapter 61: Insect Nest! Insect Tide! (Old Version)
“What’s going on?!” Professor Xin rubbed his head speechlessly and looked at Hermione.
Hermione shook her head, her face solemn: “But no matter what, we have to clear the Forbidden Forest.”
Professor McGonagall hesitated for only a moment before heading towards the Forbidden Forest…
“Hey,” Professor Xin raised his hand, then took it back awkwardly: “I mean, Principal McGonagall…”
“Let’s go!” McGonagall didn’t look back: “Hermione is right, no matter what, we have to eliminate those hidden dangers.”
No more nonsense!
The professor and the children walked into the Forbidden Forest under the escort of the centaurs. Professor Xin took out his tablet and scanned the entire Forbidden Forest.
But after a few minutes, Professor Xin realized that this was unnecessary!
The centaurs are too familiar with the Forbidden Forest! The centaurs can’t hide the changes of every plant and tree in the Forbidden Forest.
Under the leadership of Bain, the team took almost no detours and removed all the arrays and restrictions scanned by Professor Xin, and even some that Professor Xin had not discovered. Xiao Ai said helplessly that these were not threatening arrays.
The operation lasted from noon to dusk, and the journey was almost unobstructed. The horsemen drove away in advance the magical creatures that might pose a threat along the way.
But when the sun sets and the professors have to use magic to light the way, there is still one last place that has not been checked!
The only forbidden place in the forbidden forest that centaurs cannot set foot in is the giant spider’s nest!
Countless giant spiders blocked the way, waving their giant claws ferociously! Countless eyes flashing with dim light made the area around the giant spider’s nest extremely terrifying!
Professor McGonagall turned to look at Hagrid, who shook his head helplessly.
“If Aragog were still here…” Hagrid said with some sadness in his tone.
McGonagall then looked at Hermione.
Hermione understood and stepped forward.
“The Headmaster, professors, and some student representatives of Hogwarts need to speak to your Lord for the safety of Hogwarts!”
With the help of magic, the sound traveled far into the giant spider’s nest.
“There’s nothing to talk about!” A shrill voice came from the depths. The sound imitated by the giant spider’s mouthparts sounded particularly creepy.
A trembling sound came from behind. The girls had already gathered together, but Winice was still frightened and her face was pale.
Albus stood in front of Winice, and Little Bro used magic to cover the girls.
“You broke the rules!” The harsh voice roared again: “Hogwarts is no longer safe! The Forbidden Forest is no longer safe! This is all your fault!”
“We are here to solve the problem!” Hermione used magic to send the voice in again.
“It’s useless! It’s useless!” the giant spider’s voice roared.
“As long as we are allowed in and the unnecessary restrictions are removed, then we can…”
“It’s useless! It’s useless!”
Hermione was interrupted again in the middle of her words, but the voice just kept repeating “It’s useless!”
Suddenly, the sound stopped!
Another deep, but equally harsh and terrifying voice sounded: “We will leave, and after that, you can explore at will!”
“You’re leaving?” Hagrid shouted in surprise.
But for a long time, no sound came. Hagrid tilted his ears anxiously, but it was unnecessary. If the piercing sound was heard, it would be impossible to ignore it.
Sure enough, a dozen seconds later…
“Hagrid?” the deep voice sounded again.
“It’s me! Do you know me?” Hagrid shouted inside.
“No! I have heard of you!” the deep voice said, “You are a benefactor to our family, even though Aragog is dead.”
“Thank you.” Hagrid lowered his voice, and suddenly realized that now was not the time to talk about this, and raised his voice again: “Then let’s talk! You don’t have to leave…”
This time, the voice did not answer immediately.
After another ten seconds, the voice spoke again.
“No need! Hogwarts is no longer safe. We have to leave, at least until it is safe again. We know your purpose. Unfortunately, what you are looking for is no longer in the Forbidden Forest. Your real enemy has never been in the Forbidden Forest!”
“What?” Hagrid shouted in confusion, “Can you explain clearly what is not in the Forbidden Forest?”
However, the voice did not answer, but continued to speak. Hagrid’s roar actually covered up some of the hints given by the giant spider. Hermione quickly stopped Hagrid and listened carefully.
“…What you think is just what you think. Even if you remove all the restrictions in the Forbidden Forest, it will not help. Hogwarts is no longer the same Hogwarts! Come and see for yourself in three days.”
The echoes echoed in the forbidden forest ~ harsh and unsettling.
Hagrid continued to roar, but there was no answer.
There were even more spiders around, and their giant claws were making crackling sounds, driving everyone away.
It seemed that in the eyes of the giant spiders, telling everyone this was the most they could do.
Bane looked at McGonagall, and McGonagall and Hermione looked at each other and then shook their heads…
“We can’t wait for three days!” A familiar roar sounded in the crowd. What was unusual was that this time, it was not shouted in a drunken tone.
Everyone turned to look at Professor Xin, who had already tied her ponytail, adjusted the wine jug at her waist, and stepped to the front!
“Who knows what will happen in three days?!” Professor Xin yelled into the nest!
Professor McGonagall frowned, and Hermione next to her secretly pulled Professor McGonagall’s sleeve and shook her head gently!
There was no response! But the giant spiders reacted even more! The first few were already bending their bodies to gather strength.
After glancing at the spiders, Professor Xin took off the wine jug nonchalantly, took a big gulp, and then let out a long burp!
The children were somewhat speechless. At this time, in this atmosphere, couldn’t they be more serious? !
What a pity! The one who can be serious is not Professor Xin!
Looking at the reactions of the crowd behind him, Professor Xin laughed out loud!
Suddenly, it stopped abruptly, and with a step, Professor Xin’s big hand was already on the head of the spider in front!
“Bugs…” contemptuous words came from Professor Xin’s mouth!
The giant spiders around them were instantly boiling with a loud clacking sound! Suddenly, the entire land seemed to be wriggling! But that wasn’t the land! That was a swarm of insects! Countless spiders rushed up like a tide!
The centaurs drew their bows in an instant, and a neat rain of swords flew into the sky!
The dragon roared! Three fire dragons roared and soared into the sky, and CG rushed up!
The light shield fell, magic flew, and with Xiaopo’s blessing, the professor and the children’s magic was particularly dazzling at this moment!
Hagrid roared and rushed forward with a crossbow!
But just at this moment!
A huge tremor sounded! This time, the earth was really shaking!
Amidst the flying mud, a spider leg with exaggerated size broke out of the ground! Bringing strong wind, it blocked the arrows, swept away the magic, and faced the three fire dragons head-on!
A roar sounded! Three fire dragons exploded in the air!
The spider’s legs were emitting black smoke, but it did not stop at all! The sharp tip stabbed straight at Professor Xin who was in the front!
There was a huge noise, and the dust was flying! A huge air wave spread out, sweeping away the dust!
Professor Xin?
Professor Xin!
Under everyone’s astonished gaze, Professor Xin managed to block such a devastating blow!
And yes! One-handed!
Under his feet, there was a spider with its head held down!
Of course not! Being able to sweep away so many magical attacks, the power of it is self-evident. If it is the reason why it happened, then I can only say!
Professor Xin! He’s ridiculously strong!
Is this the strength a normal wizard can have? Is this the strength a person who is poisoned should have? !
At this moment, I don’t know whether the children should be worried or cheer!
But Professor Xin’s expression was full of excitement!
“Come out and fight!!!”
Professor Xin’s roar instantly spread throughout the Forbidden Forest!
Damn, how much do you love fighting?!
Are you just going to ignore the insect swarm? Are you just going to ignore that big scary spider leg?
Yes, you did! But don’t you have any common sense? Spiders have eight legs!
You keep mocking me! What if they all come out?!
Can’t you be more serious?!
Can’t you be normal?!
cannot!
Other professors can do that, but Professor Xin can’t! Otherwise, she is not Professor Xin!
Winice raised her wand and swallowed worriedly. Professor Xin’s roar was still echoing in the Forbidden Forest!
But the insect tide has stopped!
Xiaopo looked at the spiders in front of him in surprise. The huge snake was shaking with a ferocious expression. Each spider was moving with unwillingness, but they all stopped in unison and no one dared to move forward!
The giant spider under Professor Xin’s feet stopped struggling and lay obediently on the ground. In front of Professor Xin, the “tide” surged and a passage was cleared.
“You can come in!”
The unpleasant sound came again from the depths of the nest!
But Professor Xin did not move. He shouted loudly: “Are you an idiot?! If you fight me in there, I’m going to die!”
Are you afraid of anything too?!
In ancient times, Zhang Yide roared in front of Dangyang Bridge and drove back millions of Cao’s troops! Today, Professor Xin roared in the giant spider’s territory and drove away millions of insects!
I had already planned to praise you to death, but you chickened out at the critical moment!
Xiaopo really wants to complain at this moment!
Is this a coward?! Is this a coward?! Is this a coward?!
But, it’s not possible!
At this time, you must hold back! Hold back! You must absolutely hold back! You absolutely cannot…
“Fuck!” But Albus was not a brat: “Isn’t this embarrassing?”
Professor Xin’s rough laughter sounded again, and he exerted force with his feet, causing dust to fly. Xiaopo knew clearly that it was martial arts, a simple and unpretentious martial art that had been honed through thousands of trials and tribulations!
With one step, Professor Xin rushed into the passage specially left for her!
“You fucking!”
Xiaopo cursed angrily! But then he found that CG was also mumbling in his mouth, but without making any sound!
Another explosion!
CG!
Taking the same steps, fly forward!
The spiders gathered together like a tide! Countless spider webs mixed with green venom flew towards CG!
Hermione yelled! The wand was waving rapidly! A barrier was erected! Destroyed by the venom! It was erected again!
“If I die, remember to avenge me!” Professor Xin’s hearty voice came, and he had already entered the nest!
CG stepped back and was about to turn around, but another figure, using Hermione’s magic as a cover, had already surpassed CG!
Martial arts!
impossible!
Martial arts are not just about kung fu!
That requires the coordination of magic! This speed, the blessing of magic under the feet, other children can’t do it at all!
There is only one person who can do it in the field now!
CG showed a surprised expression for the first time, and his eyes quickly caught up with the figure in front that was already turning black and red!
Chapter 62 Black and White Pupils! (Old Version)
CG shouted, feeling for the first time how violent Xiaopo’s magic was!
But the little broken thing in front of him had already crashed into the insect nest!
Xiaopo’s angry roar sounded!
Xiaopo cannot retreat and will never retreat!
If the root of everything is me, then I will never let others take risks and stay out of it!
What’s more, that person is Professor Xin, the one who really taught me magic! The one who cares about me! The one who accompanies me to eat, flies with me, and goes on adventures with me!
I have lost people like this before! I must not lose them again now!
Even if it costs my life!
The magic was no longer gentle, and the black flames instantly covered every inch of Xiaopo’s body!
Xiaopo roared again, but this time, the sound sounded like the howl of a wild beast to others!
But at this moment, Xiaopo wouldn’t care about that! Magic rose up, his eyes turned red, and then, it was pitch black!
With the blessing of magic, Xiaopo was like a sharp blade, piercing into the insect swarm fiercely, destroying everything in its path!
But the giant spiders are still charging forward! Even if the only result of charging forward is death!
Yes, they are bugs! But protecting the nest has always been the nature of bugs!
The giant spiders rushed towards the strange color like crazy!
The huge spider legs attacked again, heading straight for Xiaopo!
The little guy didn’t even turn his head! The black and red magic rushed forward!
The sound of the shell being crushed was harsh and terrifying!
The waving spider legs just fell to the ground!
The roar of Xiaopo and the roar in the cave sounded almost at the same time, equally terrifying and equally hideous!
A cold laugh came from a distance~
That’s Bane!
Bane looked at Professor McGonagall angrily and pointed in the direction of Little Broken: “Is this the child you want to protect?”
Professor McGonagall didn’t say anything, her face was full of confusion!
Firenze shook his head and silently pressed down Bane’s arm!
“It’s too late…” Firenze sighed.
However, an unusually clear and affirmative voice penetrated the distant roar and reached everyone’s ears clearly!
“Yes! That’s it! Xiaopo is it!” Selena was solemn and resolute, glaring at the two centaurs angrily. At this moment, in Selena’s heart, they were no longer worthy of the slightest respect, even if one of them was a professor!
Without even glancing over there, Selena tightly grasped the wand in her hand and rushed towards the insect nest without hesitation!
A weak voice sounded among the crowd! But so firm!
Winice rushed out, broke out of the protection of the crowd, and followed Selena!
“Damn it! Where’s the agreed formation?! Just abandon it?!” Albus cursed angrily and rushed forward!
Scorpius smiled and shook his head. Lily, Jaina, Trod, and the rest of the DAs rushed out almost at the same time!
Formation? Bullshit formation!
The children used the magic they were best at and rushed forward without any plan!
But it was precisely this chaotic scene that caused Professor McGonagall’s face to blush!
Very good! DA is very good! The kids at Hogwarts are very good!
How many years have passed? How many years have I not experienced such a scene! After the war, after the Order of the Phoenix fell silent! But it is these children who can make people’s blood boil again and again!
As Hermione continued to maintain the magic in front and kept up with the DA’s footsteps, looking at those selfless figures, Professor McGonagall seemed to see the shadows of the members of the Order of the Phoenix in the past!
“Yes!” Professor McGonagall answered the question that she shouldn’t have hesitated to ask in a loud and resonant voice: “These are the children we want to protect! Hogwarts, no! I! Minerva McGonagall! I will never let anything happen to these children!”
Without paying any more attention to Bane and Firenze, and without even asking the other professors to step forward, Professor McGonagall, holding her wand, rushed towards the insect swarm at a speed that was not in line with her age!
Now that the principal has already rushed forward, what else is there to say?
“I bet Filius (Professor Flitwick) will regret not staying at Hogwarts this Christmas!”
Amid the chaotic shouting, one of the professors made a joke, and then the professors, although with different expressions, all rushed forward and quickly protected the children behind them!
“We are the DA, we don’t need protection!” Albus roared angrily, waving his wand and a spear he found from somewhere.
“That’s right, we are the DA!” Jaina also shouted, her face full of excitement!
“That’s right!” Hagrid waved his crossbow and shouted loudly: “But we are professors…”
“No! Now, it’s the Order of the Phoenix and the DA!” McGonagall’s majestic voice sounded, and she cast magic gracefully, instantly sweeping away a large number of spiders in front of her. She shook her hand and threw the Sorting Hat to Jaina: “So, fight, children! We are by your side!”
“That’s right, fight with confidence! We will never let,” Madam Pomfrey swung the box in her hand and smashed it hard on a giant spider: “Don’t interrupt my speech, you damn bug! We will never let you get hurt before us!”
Jaina looked at the Sorting Hat excitedly, with her right hand already reaching into the hat!
A rough yet solid touch came!
The ignorant spider rushed forward!
Jaina let go of her hat, grabbed the hilt of the sword tightly with both hands, and swung it hard behind her!
Gryffindor’s sword flashed with light, and the flying spider was instantly broken into two pieces!
“So cool!” Albus shouted vigorously!
The professors joined! Gryffindor’s approval! The children’s emotions were completely ignited, and they roared and rushed towards the enemy in front of them!
There were tears of excitement in the corners of Winice’s eyes, her face was full of excitement, her voice was still weak, but she was roaring desperately, holding up the magic wand, and pouring out magic power like crazy as if it was free.
What on earth could make this group of humans so crazy, so reckless and disregarding their lives!
Who is the insect that doesn’t care about its life?
The spiders wanted to retreat, but driven by instinct, they counterattacked even more frantically!
The black and red magic power suddenly fell, covering the entire battlefield indiscriminately!
In an instant, the world seemed to be muted, and there was no sound at all! But this moment of silence ended with the falling of a leaf!
The roar resounded through the sky! Leaves fell, branches flew, and the towering ancient trees trembled violently under the powerful impact of magic…
Then, there was a roar that reached the sky! It was the roar of unwillingness from all the insect swarms that dissipated in that instant!
The magic dissipated, and the surviving spiders wailed in pain, struggling and trying to launch a final counterattack. Unfortunately, they could not move an inch!
The black and red magic is not something they can bear!
The horsemen looked at the scene in front of them in surprise!
That kid! What did that kid do?! Professors, the kids are there!
Devil! Demon! Dark demon!
Bane’s eyes were red, and he pulled the bowstring angrily: “Look what you did?!”
“I! Did what?”
A cold voice came, and Xiaopo’s sharp eyes instantly locked onto Bane!
Heaven! A voice coming from heaven?!
How could that child be in heaven?!
Bain looked up suddenly, but when he met Xiaopo’s eyes, he was stunned!
The originally pitch-black eyes suddenly turned into black and white!
The next second, Xiaopo landed on the field, and the children and professors were safe and sound!
The pure and peaceful magic power covers everyone who stands on Xiaopo’s side!
CG followed and fell down, looking at the entrance of the insect nest which was no longer blocked, and said calmly: “Let’s go!”
Chapter 63 Explosion! (Old Version)
The sound of breaking air was heard!
CG and Xiaopo flew towards the insect swarm!
The moment the eye contact ended, Bane suddenly realized that his hands, no, his whole body, was shaking!
Is this the legendary child?
Is this the prediction given by the star map?
How can such a monster exist in this world!
“It’s time to make a decision~” Firenze helped Bane up, and his melodious voice rang out, reaching the ears of every centaur.
But Bane shook his head: “Too late…”
“What happened?” The children were in a trance, looking at the two figures flying in front of them in surprise. Trod asked in disbelief.
“That child…” Madam Pomfrey looked at the magic around her and looked at Professor McGonagall in disbelief.
Professor McGonagall closed her eyes and thought, using her wand to guide Little Bro’s magic, feeling the changes in it. After a while, she slowly opened her eyes and looked at Hermione who was doing the same action.
“Break him,” Hermione nodded and looked in the direction of the hive: “Master your magic!”
“Really?!” Albus shouted excitedly when he heard this!
“What the hell are you yelling about?” Trod shouted in dissatisfaction, his face full of worry: “This may not be a good thing!”
“You tm…” Albus cursed dissatisfiedly.
Scorpius beside him pulled Albus back and also looked towards the direction of the hive: “Trod is right. When have you ever seen only arrogance on Trod’s face…”
Albus was stunned, and so were the other children. Subconsciously, the children looked at Selena.
Selena’s brows were furrowed, her teeth were biting her lips, and her fists were clenched as if she wanted to squeeze water out of the magic wand!
“We have to rescue them no matter what, don’t we?” Albus didn’t want to wait any longer and walked towards the entrance of the nest, but was stopped by Hermione beside him.
Albus looked at Hermione with some anger, but the one who answered him was Selena who had never spoken!
“The little one now,” Selena frowned even deeper, and looked at Hermione with a worried look on her face: “is invincible…”
“So what?” Albus complained relentlessly, “Just ignore Professor Xin? Just ignore CG and Xiaopo?”
Hermione shook her head: “What we should think about now is not how to rescue them, but what if…”
“What if I go crazy! Right?!”
Arrogant voices suddenly came from all directions! It was Xiaopo’s voice! But it was a tone that Xiaopo had never used before!
At that moment, everyone couldn’t help but shudder!
“Xiaopo…” Selena muttered in a low voice, with mixed feelings in her heart, but she had to force herself to make up her mind, raised her voice and shouted: “Hu Xiaopo! Damn you! Come out!”
As if responding to Selena’s roar!
A dull roar came from the entrance of the giant spider cave! The ground began to tremble! The terrifying voice of the giant spider lord came, but the voice was getting weaker and weaker!
The halo of magic began to dissipate around the insect nest!
The professors looked at the light that appeared as the earth trembled in amazement!
What level of magic power is escaping to produce such brilliance?
That’s underground! That’s in a worm nest!
Wait! The magical energy in this light is actually still increasing!
Professor McGonagall instantly put up her shield and shouted a warning!
That’s right, with this concentration of magic! It’s very likely! No! It will definitely explode! Maybe in a moment, maybe in the next second!
Hermione grabbed Winice, who was still in shock, and shook her wand quickly with her other hand. In an instant, magic ropes grabbed the children and dragged them away!
Just at the moment Professor McGonagall turned around!
Above the giant spider’s nest, in the middle of magic that is so dense that it is tangible!
A touch of black and red broke out of the ground, instantly igniting all the magic power!
“Protect…”
Professor McGonagall shouted a warning! The other professors didn’t need to be instructed at this time, they had already raised their wands! The shield fell, blocking everyone!
Just last semester, this shield that could block even a small magic outburst disappeared after Professor McGonagall only had time to say one word!
The black and red figure raised his hand and easily passed through the shield!
Behind him, the magic power from the explosion surged over him!
Madam Pomfrey took a last desperate look, feeling the brutality of the magic, threw the medicine box to the children farther away, and closed her eyes silently!
Professor McGonagall was still unwilling to gather her magic again, but she found that in such a chaotic magic, her magic failed for the first time in her life…
The explosion swept over, drowning McGonagall, drowning Pomfrey, and drowning the other professors…
Hermione pushed Winice towards the other children with all her strength, and then was submerged in magic!
“What did you do?!”
Hagrid was crying, roaring, and rushing towards Little Broken with a crossbow in his hand.
However, the explosion hit, wrapping Hagrid in it, followed by Winice, Jaina, Lily, and more children~
“I heard you were looking for me?!”
Little Po Luo walked up to Selena who had already stopped and was looking behind her, with his head lowered and his voice cold!
Wrong? Are we wrong after all?
This is what was prophesied, will everything end?
However, the prophecy clearly said that there is still hope!
But where is this turning point and hope?
Selena thought wildly and closed her eyes in despair…
“Is he handsome?!” Xiaopo’s voice sounded again, so familiar!
Selena opened her eyes in surprise and looked at Xiaopo. At this time, Xiaopo had a silly smile on his face!
It’s him! It’s that familiar little brat! It’s that fool…
Never changed!
But now!
Everything! It’s too late…
Selena smiled without any blame!
It’s just for your own survival, what’s there to blame?
It’s just fate.
“Handsome.” Selena murmured softly.
Perhaps, this is the last word I can say before I die, so I will use it to warm the heart of this child who has always been excluded by everyone. Even if it is only for a moment, it will be fine~ right~
The explosion chased after them, covering Xiaopo and Selena, covering everyone!
The horsemen in the distance looked at what was happening here in surprise. The prophecy was clearly not going to happen!
Bane roared and rushed towards the explosion like mad!
The horsemen followed their leader without hesitation!
Only Firenze bent down and picked up a fallen leaf on the ground, which was still glowing with the magic power escaping.
“You are right~”
Firenze whispered with a smile, looking up at the sky, letting the magic power of the explosion envelope him and everything around him…
Chapter 64: Forbidden Forest! Strategy! (Old Version)
The black and red magic completely exploded, like a blooming rose, as red as blood and as black as ink!
Just like this world, the bright and clear is just the bright and clear world, while the gloomy and gloomy is the real world.
Black and red interweave, fallen leaves dance, at that moment, it is as beautiful as a painting~
But explosion is only a momentary art after all~
The roar faded, the magic faded, and everything was gone. Only the scorched earth proved the splendor of the past.
Under this dark night sky, the forbidden forest returns to peace…
The night wind was light, the thick clouds in the sky dispersed, revealing the moon tonight…
Hogwarts was dead silent.
In the midst of total silence, a roar rose into the sky, piercing through the forbidden forest, awakening all the people who were still in surprise!
“Your uncle’s Hu Xiaopo!”
Selena cursed angrily and punched Xiaopo on the head!
It’s okay! That’s right! Everyone is okay!
Professors, children, centaurs, even those spiders!
Such a powerful magic, the moment it enveloped everyone, did not hurt, but only nourished~
Xiaopo doesn’t know any healing magic, all he can do is nourish. He uses his purest magic to try his best to repair every person and magical creature involved in this battle that shouldn’t have happened~
The centaurs stopped, the spiders stopped. At this moment, all eyes were focused on the man in the middle of the field!
Hu Xiaopo, who was obviously extremely strong, was being hit hard by such a clumsy fist!
Selena waved her fists desperately!
Hate? Unwilling?
Neither!
Between despair and rebirth, there is no room for so many emotions, but I have to bear all of them~
At this moment, even Selena herself didn’t know what she was thinking. For the first time, Selena gave up thinking and beat the little boy desperately out of instinct.
If it weren’t for him, none of this would have happened! If it weren’t for him, all of this would have been completely missed…
Tangled and contradictory!
How could Selena be the only one who was conflicted and entangled?
Can’t you just talk nicely? Can’t you stop trying to be cool? Can’t you stop making everyone worry? It’s obvious that you can do it a different way and it will be fine!
Why? Why choose this method?!
Big ups and downs! Big joys and big sorrows!
Is it interesting?
Is it fun to play tricks on people?
One hand grabbed Selena’s fist that was about to fall again, and CG rushed out of the nest and stood beside Selena.
Selena’s eyes were already full of tears. She looked at the CG and then at the shaky little broken~
“Are you okay?” Selena shook off CG’s hand, wiped away her tears stubbornly, looked at Xiaopo who was still smiling foolishly, and asked angrily.
Xiaopo didn’t answer. He sat against the big tree next to him with a silly smile, raised his head, looked up at the sky, and closed his eyes silently.
Selena took a step forward, but CG shook her head.
“Let’s take a break.” Professor Xin also came out, and his voice came from afar!
Even a small person cannot handle this kind of magic…
“Damn it!” Selena cursed angrily. She rushed over regardless of anything and grabbed Professor Xin by the collar. She pressed her wand against Professor Xin’s neck. “Why! Why are you doing this?! Why?! We can go in in three days! It won’t turn out like this! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!”
“Because we have been bewitched~” An unpleasant voice came from deep in the cave. It was the giant spider leader.
It! Is still alive!?
Selena’s hand loosened. As smart as Selena was, she understood it in an instant…
Since everything is born from small destruction, it will also be destroyed by small destruction, that’s all.
Professor Xin threw the boneless rotten meat on the ground without caring.
“Refine the beast~” Professor Xin kicked it with his foot and said lightly. He subconsciously wanted to take the wine pot, but his waist was empty…
Scratching his head in embarrassment, Professor Xin followed Xiao Po’s example and sat down, breathing heavily.
Yes, that’s why!
The Refined Beast is inside, so we can’t wait for three days! But how innocent are the magical creatures? ! The giant spiders defended their nests, were they wrong? The centaurs defended their beliefs, were they wrong? Hogwarts had to go to war forcefully to protect its children, were they wrong?
In this case, let all the sins be borne by one person! Because this person does not care about those so-called false names!
“Han Guang is a noble man without a name, why should he compare himself to the clouds and the moon?”
Her ancestors said so!
“Life is like a dream, why bother to work so hard? So I get drunk all day and lie down in front of the pillar.”
No matter what you like, as long as you have wine, you can enjoy it!
So she rushed forward! She rushed forward even though Hogwarts agreed to give in! She rushed forward with a smile!
In the past, no one might understand! But now it’s different!
Xiaopo understood it, before anyone else!
At that moment, Xiaopo just wanted to ask why?
Why are the sentences of the poet Li Bai said by your ancestors?
Why should you, Professor Xin, bear the brunt of the trouble caused by Hu Xiaopo? !
Why!
So! Xiaopo rushed forward! He rushed forward regardless of everything!
Everything should come to an end…
The children came over, the professors came over, the centaurs came over, and other magical creatures in the forbidden forest that were nourished by this magic came over~
No one spoke, everyone stared at the scene in front of them silently.
Selena then remembered to take a good look at the three people, and finally saw clearly that whether it was Xiaopo, CG or Professor Xin, they were all in tatters. For a moment, she couldn’t imagine what kind of battle could make these three people so embarrassed, and could make Xiaopo in this state so embarrassed!
“If you don’t do this, it will run away~” Professor Xin said, seeming to have regained some strength.
“If I don’t do this, how can I give an explanation to everyone?” Xiao Po opened his eyes. The magic had long dissipated, and his pupils were no longer visible, but his voice was still cold.
But then, a silly smile appeared on his face: “Is he handsome?”
Selena rolled her eyes at Xiaopo and turned her head away.
“Are you still leaving?” CG’s voice seemed to carry magic, spreading far into the giant spider’s nest and to all parts of the forbidden forest.
There was a rustling sound, with a hint of dissatisfaction as if someone was asking a question despite knowing the answer.
CG smiled, which was rare, and sat down next to Xiaopo, lowering his head and replied, “Handsome!”
this……
Is this a small broken? Is this a CG?
The character setting is broken! Author, come out, we promise not to beat you to death! There are too many flaws!
only!
The children were still in shock and forgot to complain for a moment! Naturally, no one noticed that when CG lowered his head, there was a bitterness in his smile…
This time, it was not because of others! It was just because of myself that I was slow. If I could be faster, if I hadn’t hesitated for that moment, maybe everything would be different!
Who doesn’t have a heroic dream in their heart?
The sound of horse hooves was heard, and Firenze stood beside Bane, his eyes calm and composed.
“What about you guys?” Xiaopo raised his head and looked at Bain.
For the first time, Bane showed hesitation and looked at Firenze inquiringly.
Firenze did not answer, but stood aside silently. The stars in the sky had already explained everything.
Bain turned his head to look at the other centaurs, then looked at Xiaopo again. He straightened his chest again, and walked up to Xiaopo with the unique pride of a centaur!
Then he slowly bent one of his front hooves!
He knelt on one leg! He clenched his right fist and placed it heavily on his chest! Then, he silently lowered his head which was always held high!
The children around were shocked, the professors were shocked, the magical creatures were shocked, Selena, Hagrid, and everyone who knew the arrogant and annoying personality of the centaurs was shocked!
The world is about to end? The centaurs actually lowered their heads! To a human?!
What about the other centaurs? They should be crazy, right? They should be angry, right? They should shout shame and rush over to tear the two men to pieces, right?
Why are they kneeling on one knee? Why are they holding their fists in front of their chests? Why are they nodding their heads in the same way? And why are they kneeling for so long?
Oh my god! Has the world really changed?
Haha! Even on April Fools’ Day, you can’t make such a joke!
This is no joke!
Everything happened in full view of everyone!
“You…” Bain remained kneeling, speaking slowly and confidently. Even though he had restrained himself, the majesty of a leader was still conveyed to everyone in the room as he spoke: “You have won the respect of the centaurs! From today on, the centaurs are willing to acknowledge you as their friend!”
“What about Hogwarts?” Xiaopo asked mercilessly.
Bane was stunned, but when he looked up at the smiling face of Little Po, he breathed a sigh of relief: “Centaurs are always loyal to Hogwarts!”
“You’re not leaving?” Xiaopo asked with a silly smile.
Bane was a little embarrassed, but then a silly smile like Xiaopo’s naturally appeared on his face.
Xiaopo’s silly smile is really contagious!
Xiaopo smiled foolishly, not knowing what to say for a moment, and looked at others for help.
At McGonagall’s nod, Hermione stepped forward with a smile, her eyes sweeping around: “The Forbidden Forest is incomplete without the centaurs. Little Broke would never want any magical creature to leave the Forbidden Forest or Hogwarts because of him. Right?”
Xiaopo nodded hard.
Hermione looked at Bane with a smile: “So, the Forbidden Forest is left to you, okay?”
Bane and the centaurs stood up, looked at Hermione with some confusion, and then looked at Crooked.
Bane’s expression instantly became serious, and he once again placed his fist heavily on his chest: “Definitely!”
“You too!” CG’s voice spread far into the giant spider’s nest.
“Bummer!” An unpleasant and harsh voice came, but the meaning it expressed was exciting!
The spiders retreated, and under the leadership of the centaurs, the other magical creatures also hid in the forbidden forest.
Finally, the forbidden forest returned to silence again, and this time, it was truly silent.
Chapter 65: Rational Trod (Old Version)
Professor Xin patted his clothes and stood up, but given how tattered the clothes were, it seemed there was no need to pat them anymore. But to Professor Xin, it didn’t seem to matter.
“Shall we go too?” Professor Xin said casually.
“What should we do with this thing?” Selena pointed her magic wand at the refined beast next to her.
“Do you want more?” Professor Xin turned to look at Hermione and McGonagall.
“Would you be willing to let us study it?” Hermione asked with a smile.
“I can pretend I don’t know. Right, Xiao Ai?” Professor Xin said heartlessly.
“Xiao Ai doesn’t know!” Xiao Ai’s electronic voice came from Professor Xin’s pocket.
Is your tablet so sturdy? When I was in the welfare home, it broke down frequently. Xiaopo complained silently in his heart. Don’t ask why it was in his heart, because, I was so tired! The rest, leave it to the professors.
Xiaopo leaned quietly against the tree and closed his eyes.
“Then burn it.” Hermione said with a smile.
“Are you willing to give it up? That’s rare.” Professor Xin winked at Hermione.
“If there is no way to send it back to you safely, burn it. Xiao Ai can witness it.” Professor McGonagall made the final statement.
“Okay.” Professor Xin said helplessly. He tried hard for a long time and even made the hand shape of spitting fire. But in the end, he looked around helplessly: “Someone go to my room and get me a bottle of wine!”
The children all rolled their eyes and looked away with disgust.
Hermione smiled and silently chanted a spell. Under the command of the wand, the blue fire ring coiled around, tightened, and burned everything.
“Not bad!” Professor Xin praised, “Shall we go?”
“Not yet!”
Hermione waved her hand, took out her own tablet, and tapped her finger! Light and shadow fell, scanning the entire venue!
The progress bar on the screen scrolled, and after a few seconds, the green safety sign lit up!
The professors and children finally breathed a sigh of relief!
The restrictions left by the Ministry of Magic! Clear them!
The professors finally smiled. But, did they come to the Forbidden Forest just to remove these restrictions? Did they come here just to fight? Did they forget the real purpose of this trip?
“Are we happy too early?” Trod raised his hand silently.
“You tm…” Albus had been unhappy with Trod for a long time, but after being glared at by Hermione, he had to change his words: “What do you mean?”
Trod had long been accustomed to Albus’ provocations. He looked at the others and said, “We didn’t catch the person who controlled the refining beast! We also didn’t find the person who poisoned Professor Xin! Professor Xin’s poison can’t be cured! Isn’t that right?”
For a moment, everyone fell silent! Because Trod was right! It was too early to be happy!
“Do you really have to pour cold water on me here?” Albus scolded, only his voice dropped lower.
Professor Xin stood up and put his arms around Trod’s neck: “These are not important!”
“No, this is very important!” Trod reluctantly broke away from Professor Xin and said stubbornly. Then, he looked at Xiaopo who still had his eyes closed: “And more! And more…”
“There’s also Xiaopo, right?!” CG stood up silently and looked at Trod with cold eyes: “Xiaopo finally mastered his magic!”
No one answered. In the completely silent place, an ominous feeling seemed to be spreading!
Trod hesitated, but still straightened his chest: “That’s right!”
“You fucking bastard!” Albus cursed angrily, not caring about the many professors standing around him, and grabbed Trod’s collar: “It was a mistake to let you join the DA! From the very beginning, you…!”
“That’s enough, Albus!” Selena ordered!
Trod’s reaction was even more intense, and he broke free from Albus’s hands. “What are you doing? Are you going to let CG destroy me again? Come on! Am I wrong? Yes! Xiaopo’s magic is full of peace! That’s right! But don’t forget the destructive power of that magic! What if Xiaopo changes his mind? What if Xiaopo regrets it? This time he chose redemption! What if he chooses killing next time?”
“Trod! What nonsense are you talking about? We have been through so much together!” Jaina couldn’t stand it anymore and yelled.
“I didn’t!” Trod raised the badge with the word “Discipline” high. “I am also a DA! I am willing to entrust my life to each and every one of you, and I am willing to sacrifice for each and every one of you! Including Xiaopo! It is because we have been through so much together! But what about others? What about other classmates? What about those who can only know a few words through the Daily Prophet and the Quibbler? What if they knew that the child in the prophecy has broken through the shackles and completely mastered the magic power? What if they knew that the magic power of that child is enough to destroy the world? You also saw the different expressions on Xiaopo’s face! Was that coldness just my overthinking?”
“You’re right!” A cold voice sounded, and everyone in the field looked at the only person sitting under the tree at the moment. Xiaopo tried hard to relax his expression and put on a silly smile: “But, can’t you just talk it out nicely?”
“Can’t you just stop changing your face?!” Trod pointed at Xiaopo with his finger trembling slightly with excitement: “We chose DA, we chose trust, and we put everything on the line!”
“Sorry!” Xiaopo smiled foolishly and remained sitting: “I’m just too tired.”
Hermione walked forward silently, the DA badge on her chest reflecting the light from her wand. She patted Trow on the shoulder and looked at the children around her: “I believe the professors will be willing to keep this a secret for you.”
Trod raised his head and looked at Hermione, Professor McGonagall, Madam Pomfrey, and the professors in the room.
“Yes!” Professor McGonagall nodded.
“Tonight, um, the weather is nice tonight.” Madam Pomfrey looked up at the sky.
“How did I get here? Shouldn’t I be in the mountains repairing caves with Grawp? What’s going on? What happened?” Hagrid looked around awkwardly.
Looking at the professors who were expressing their affirmation in their own ways, the children smiled, and even Trod breathed a sigh of relief.
“No need!” Selena’s expression was serious, and she swept her eyes over everyone: “I will use The Quibbler to tell everyone everything about this matter, and let everyone see it in its entirety!”
“Are you crazy, Selena?” Albus’s face was full of disbelief.
“How long can we keep it a secret?” Selena asked back, “Instead of letting everyone get the news through other channels, why don’t we tell the whole story? I believe justice lies in the hearts of the people!”
“When has justice ever been in the hearts of the people?!” Professor Xin said in a drunken voice, holding Selena and putting his big hand on her shoulder: “Public opinion has always been about guidance. No one cares about the truth. All everyone cares about is themselves.”
“Then let us lead the way!” Lily raised her hand and spoke!
“Then it won’t be all clear and honest,” Scorpius sighed.
Hermione smiled and looked at Selena, then looked at the others: “I think Selena must have her own ideas, why not tell everyone?”
Chapter 66: Dreaming! (Old version)
Selena met Hermione’s gaze for a few seconds but did not answer.
Turning her head and coming to Xiaopo, Selena squatted down and said, “No matter what, we will support you. Because we know that you are you, you are Hu Xiaopo!”
Xiaopo tried hard to open his eyes and looked at Selena with a smile: “Thank you.”
“But now, you have to make a choice,” Selena paused, turned her head to look at the others, then looked at Xiaopo again and asked very seriously: “Do you want to be Harry Potter or Voldemort?”
“What do you mean?! Rather than letting you become a dark wizard in the future, I will…” Trod stepped forward quickly, with the wand in his hand!
Albus stopped Trod and said, “So what if it’s the Dark Lord?”
“So what?” Trod cursed, pointing his wand around: “Look at the unnatural reactions of the professors? Do you want that dark age to come again?”
“Little Bro is not Voldemort, and he will never become Voldemort!” Hermione smiled and pulled the two apart: “What Selena wants to say is the way to guide public opinion. Voldemort chose deterrence, and Harry’s way will be more difficult. That’s all.”
“Of course! Choose Voldemort!” Albus came to Trod’s side and glared at him before he died.
“If you have to choose between being right and being simple…” Winice raised her hand weakly: “What Professor Dumbledore is suggesting is…”
“It’s different, Winice.” Scorpius said gently, “Neither of these two paths is easy!”
“But…” Lily said dissatisfiedly.
“Enough!” CG interrupted the DAs’ quarrel and looked at the others without question.
“What would you choose?” Professor Xin asked CG with a smile, and tried to smooth things over by leaning against the tree next to CG.
CG remained silent and did not answer.
“This is Xiaopo’s choice, so please…” Selena spoke with an unusually calm tone.
Xiaopo smiled and tried to move his mouth. His voice was very soft, so soft that it was almost as if he was breathing, but the answer was loud and clear and reached everyone’s ears.
“Didn’t you say it all? I am who I am. I am~Hu Xiaopo~”
With a silly smile, Xiaopo said the last word, and quietly closed his eyes. He could no longer support his body, which had reached its limit, and fell to the side…
Under the sky, there is nothingness.
Xiaopo was floating in chaos and all he could see was himself.
“What is this?” Xiaopo moved his hands, and a black and red flame rose up, with a layer of dark blue flowing in it: “No problem.”
Xiaopo muttered, looking at the nothingness that trapped him!
There seems to be something in the distance!
As red as blood, as black as ink!
Wrapped in a ball of crystal magic, it stands out particularly in this chaos!
Subconsciously, Xiaopo moved his body forward.
“Is that a crystal ball?” Xiao Po squinted his eyes and muttered uncertainly.
The chaos began to dissipate and the surroundings began to become clear.
Xiaopo looked at the changes around him and recognized the shelves on the walls, the various objects on the shelves, the teacups, tables and chairs next to them, the wine glasses and bottles on the seats, and Sybill Trelawney who was sitting on the chair, looking at the crystal ball intently.
“Professor Trelawney?!” Xiao Po whispered subconsciously: “Is he dizzy again? But why do I see these? It wasn’t like this before?”
“What was it like before?” Trelawney smiled and turned around, moving her chair and sitting in front of Little Bro.
What’s going on?! Am I dizzy? Isn’t this a dream? Although the dreams I’ve always had are hallucinations that can only be seen after being dizzy, I’ve never heard that hallucinations can be interactive!
Wait, it seems that in dreams, it really should be possible to interact!
But why didn’t it happen before? What’s the situation now?
Looking at Little Po’s appearance, Professor Trelawney smiled, silently picked up the bottle, and drank the wine without any grace. But after putting the bottle on the table, she returned to her dignified and mysterious appearance.
This is too incongruous!
“Can you hear me!” Seeing that Professor Trelawney didn’t seem to want to speak first, Little Bro asked tentatively.
“Of course.” Professor Trelawney stood up and went to the cupboard next to her to get the teacup and teapot. A set of gold-rimmed enamel tables and chairs next to her floated over to match. Putting down the tea set, Professor Trelawney sat down opposite Little Bro, quietly poured a cup of tea for herself and Little Bro, took a sip gently, held the cup with both hands, and looked at Little Bro with a smile: “So, do you want to ask me something?”
“Me?” Xiaopo pointed at himself and asked in surprise: “Looking for you?”
Professor Trelawney smiled and nodded, motioning with her hands to everything around her, and winked at Little Bro. “Very powerful magic!”
Xiaopo was getting more and more confused: “Is this what I did? But shouldn’t I be dizzy?”
“That’s right! Dreaming, a very advanced divination technique! I’m really curious where you learned it from. I don’t think Firenze can do this kind of divination besides looking at the stars.” Trelawney smiled, looked around, rubbed the teacup, and exclaimed: “This texture is quite realistic.”
“So, I really fainted and now it’s hallucination, and you entered my dream?” Xiaopo asked in confusion.
“No, no, no, my child!” Professor Trelawney quickly put down the teacup in her hand, as if she was afraid that Little Bro wouldn’t understand. She gestured with her hands, “This is not an illusion, it’s a creation of magic. But you can simply understand it as an illusion, after all, these are not real. And I didn’t enter your dream, but was brought here by your magic.”
“Me?” Xiaopo asked in disbelief.
“So you came to me to ask something?” Professor Trelawney nodded, but seeing that Little Po still looked confused, she smiled helplessly, drank the tea in the cup in one gulp, turned the cup upside down, and then looked at the current appearance of the tea leaves: “You wanted to know this, it’s really unexpected. Don’t you want to ask about the future situation? Don’t you want to ask about the current situation of Hogwarts? Aren’t you curious about the next Minister of Magic? Aren’t you curious about who is plotting against you? Or secretly tell your fat friend the next lottery number? Whether it is in the future or now, I can give you a satisfactory answer! But… why bother asking me about the past…”
“Do you know what I want to ask?” Xiaopo shook his head and smiled bitterly, “I don’t even know what I want to ask. Wait, lottery numbers? Is this kind of prediction possible?”
“I see the doubts in your heart~” Trelawney smiled and changed the subject. She waved her hand and many cakes appeared on the table out of thin air: “Ahaha, donkey rolls! I saw it in an oriental magazine. It’s worthy of your dream! What is this?”
Seeing Professor Trelawney pointing at a black thing nearby, Little Po introduced them one by one in a daze: “Persimmon cake, osmanthus cake, lava cake, pea yellow…”
Suddenly Xiaopo reacted and asked, what the hell is this doing?
“Um, Professor Trelawney,” Xiaopo tried to calm down, “I have always wondered…”
Professor Trelawney was chewing a piece of ham cake, and quickly put it aside and straightened herself. “Background, um, yes, your background. Although you try hard to suppress it in your heart, try hard to live a good life every day, and try hard to forget the past entanglements. But your heart can’t deceive yourself. You have always cared a lot. Care about your origin, care about your parents, and care about your past. And when you know your own story, you start to care about your brother and your prophecy.”
Xiaopo shook his head, picked up a persimmon, and put it down again after struggling: “I don’t really care that much anymore?”
“But you still care about that prophecy, and what you saw in your dream. So I appeared here, and you think it was my prophecy that changed your fate. If it weren’t for my prophecy, you would at least have a brother by your side. If it weren’t for my prophecy, your life wouldn’t be so difficult. If it weren’t for my prophecy, you wouldn’t have to smile foolishly every day, forcing yourself to face life bravely. You could cry whenever you want and make a scene whenever you want.”
“I…” Xiaopo was silent, wanting to say something but stopping himself.
“There’s no need to lie.” Professor Trelawney waved her hand nonchalantly. The wine bottle in the distance flew over obediently. She took the bottle and took a sip. Professor Trelawney continued, “But have you ever thought that if there was no prophecy, you might have lived in that orphanage forever? If there was no prophecy, you wouldn’t have met so many friends who are willing to share the joys and sorrows with you. Have you ever thought that whether there is this prophecy or not, maybe your fate will still be like this after all.”
Silence. This time, Xiaopo was completely silent and didn’t even say the word “I”.
“Prophecy,” Professor Trelawney concluded, “is simply a prediction of what is going to happen. It never changes anything, that’s all.”
“But a lot has changed after all.” Xiaopo lowered his head.
Professor Trelawney paused, held down the hem of her clothes with her left hand, and gently patted Little Bro’s shoulder with her right hand across the table: “You have done a good job so far, child.”
“Thank you…” Xiaopo said in a low voice and slowly raised his head: “I want to know what the prophecy was like back then.”
“I can’t.” Professor Trelawney withdrew her hand.
“Why…” Xiaopo was about to ask back, but suddenly an idea occurred to him: “A spell to keep secrets?”
Professor Trelawney nodded and took another sip of her wine. “The highest quality.”
“Then what can you tell me?” Xiao Po smiled bitterly, sighed, then rubbed his face hard and put on a silly smile again: “Forget it, actually…the lottery number is not bad.”
“Hahahaha!” Professor Trelawney laughed wantonly and raised her hand to interrupt Xiao Po: “Lottery number, you are worthy of it. If I really gave it to you, your fat uncle might be in trouble.”
“Okay…” Xiaopo smiled foolishly and rubbed his head: “I still have to thank you, even though everything…”
“I will not allow something like using such an advanced spell as Dream Enter to end up with nothing in return.” Professor Trelawney put down the bottle and looked at Little Brokenheartedly.
“Isn’t it possible to tell?” Little Po looked at Professor Trelawney with confusion and expectation.
“But!” Professor Trelawney deliberately dragged out the tone, then shrugged and looked at Xiao Po’s expectant expression: “Well, I really can’t say~”
Shit! This was intentional! This was intentional! This was intentional!
Since when did all the professors at Hogwarts become so frivolous?
Wait, why do you say all?
Wait a minute, Professor Trelawney, you have always been weird!
Wait, does being weird mean being indecent?
Little Po resisted the urge to roll his eyes, swear, and flip the table, and looked at Professor Trelawney helplessly.
But at this moment, Professor Trelawney suddenly spoke very seriously: “But! You can see it yourself!”
Chapter 67 Prophecy (Old Version)
“But! You can see for yourself!”
Here we go again!
Can you believe this? Can you believe this? Can you believe this?
Do you dare to be less reliable?!
You are a professor at Hogwarts! You have impressed Hermione Granger with your series of actions recently!
Is it fun to tease a sophomore here? Is it fun? Is it fun?
But just when Xiaopo was hesitating whether to believe it, Professor Trelawney had already raised her right hand, drew out her wand, and pointed it at her left hand which she had stretched out, waiting for Xiaopo to hold it.
“What is this?” Xiaopo asked in surprise. But in his heart, he was instantly certain, yes, this is it!
“I need one last confirmation!” Professor Trelawney looked at Little Broken: “Do you really want to see it? Even if everything is not what you expected!”
“kindness!”
Xiao Po didn’t hesitate any more and held Professor Trelawney’s hand!
Professor Trelawney smiled and waved her magic, and a flash of magical light appeared.
The surrounding scene suddenly became blurry yet real.
The divination classroom disappeared, the castle disappeared, the square disappeared, Hogwarts disappeared, the sun rose and set again, time went back quickly, and the places kept changing. The only thing that remained unchanged was the two people sitting there and the set of gold-edged silk enamel tables and chairs.
Suddenly, the scene froze! Little Bro staggered and almost fell out of the chair. Fortunately, Professor Trelawney pulled Little Bro back.
“What’s the matter with you?” asked Professor Trelawney.
“Sorry, I didn’t stop, it was too~ fast…” Xiaopo answered subconsciously, but when he saw that there was no ripple of tea on the seat, he realized that something seemed to be wrong.
“The essence of magic lies in the heart, and your mind is in chaos!” Professor Trelawney gently patted the back of Little Bro’s hand and silently withdrew her hand.
Looking at the familiar Leaky Cauldron, and seeing herself pretending to be drunk, Professor Trelawney couldn’t help but feel sad.
The scene remained frozen. Professor Trelawney walked forward like a tour guide and turned to look at Little Bro: “Are you ready?”
Xiaopo hesitated, but the next second…
Professor Trelawney’s snap of fingers was like a switch, causing the picture to start scrolling!
Professor Trelawney in the picture was twitching and shaking nervously, looking like she was in a state of confusion. The drinker next to her moved aside in disgust.
“Never mind, it has to be this way, you know.”
Professor Trelawney, who was beside Little Broken, shrugged.
Xiaopo raised his hand and moved forward, not wanting to miss any details!
“Are you all right, Sybil?”
A lady with two golden braids came over from behind the bar and asked without any disgust.
Xiaopo knew that this was Hannah. He had met Hannah when he first arrived at the Leaky Cauldron in his first year. She was the first wizard who tried to accept him besides Professor Granger. But Hannah was much younger at that time.
“No! No!”
Professor Trelawney was lying on the bar, her upper body trembling, and she suddenly raised her head, the whites of her eyes twisting wildly.
Professor Trelawney imitated her former self and made faces at Little Broken.
However, Little Bro didn’t have the slightest intention to watch Professor Trelawney’s antics because the prophecy was about to begin.
“The Dark Lord!” A strange tone, as if it could penetrate time and space, came from Professor Trelawney’s constantly opening and closing mouth: “The Dark Lord is back! Tonight! Tonight! The Son of Darkness will be born! Darkness will cover the sky again!”
“What are you talking about, Sibyl?” Hannah was obviously frightened, but she still held back Professor Trelawney who was threatening to attack her. “The Dark Lord has been eliminated.”
As if stimulated, Professor Trelawney suddenly grabbed Hannah’s collar, rolled up her eyes, and stared at Hannah. Her ferocious face suddenly stretched out, and stuck in front of Hannah’s face. For some reason, she laughed, from light to crazy: “Hahahahaha~ The darkness will never be completely dispelled~ Hahahaha~”
Almost everyone in the tavern looked over. They looked at the crazy Sibyl and the frightened Hannah!
“That’s different from what I know!” Xiao Po immediately corrected him, looking at Professor Trelawney next to him: “What I heard is…”
“I lay on the table and spoke it silently, and the people around me only heard a few words?” Professor Trelawney seemed to have heard something funny, and said with a strange expression: “Don’t be silly, if no one really heard it, how could this prophecy spread all over the streets overnight?! It’s just that no one dared to admit in front of the Ministry of Magic that they had heard this terrible prophecy.”
“How could this happen? What happened next?” Xiaopo asked anxiously.
Professor Trelawney did not answer, motioning for Little Bro to continue reading.
Sybil was still smiling.
Hannah grabbed Sybil’s hand and said, “That’s enough, Sybil, you’ve drunk too much!”
“Hahahaha~” Sybil was still laughing. She let go of Hannah, turned around and faced the gazes of the people around her. She swung her fingers left and right, swiping across everyone at once, and gently uttered four words: “There’s no escape!”
“What nonsense are you talking about!”
“This crazy woman!”
“You must have drunk too much!”
“How can Hogwarts have such a professor!”
There was a clamor everywhere, but no one suggested “get him out of here!”, because after just a few seconds, everyone tacitly fell silent, waiting for the next prophecy…
You could hear a pin drop in the bar, and let Sybil’s teasing voice echo!
“coward!”
Sybil’s fingertips passed over everyone again, her voice was odd and teasing, but there was still only the whites of her eyes. She grabbed the wooden wine glass on the seat next to her and drank it all in big gulps without caring what was in it.
Boom! Sybil put the glass back on the bar, smacked her lips, and looked at the wine on her fingertips: “Yes, there is still hope! Before the darkness really falls, there is still hope!”
The bar suddenly became quieter, and everyone’s eyes were focused on Sybil.
“The Dark Lord is in the mysterious East this time. Follow that ancient yet brand new road to find the mark of death, find that existence. That is the end, the end, and the only hope!” Sybil said, scanning the audience again: “There is still time to hope!”
“Notify the Ministry of Magic immediately!”
“No! Is there anyone who can contact Harry? Harry Potter!”
“Yes! Harry Potter!”
“I’ll send an owl right now!”
“Yes! Owls! Send them all! Harry Potter must be notified!”
“Fool~”
Amid the clamor, the voices of banter were not loud, but they were particularly harsh.
However, no one objected, even the most irritable drunkards remained silent.
Because, there was Sybil, the mad woman, still talking!
“This prophecy takes so long?” Xiaopo couldn’t help but look at Professor Trelawney next to him.
Professor Trelawney shrugged. “You know, sometimes when you get into a role, you just…”
“Wake up!” Sybil suddenly yelled loudly, “What do you think this is? This is a dark prophecy! Do you really think you can write it down? Tell it to others? Hahahaha! Take a good look at it!”
Suddenly, Sibyl pulled up her sleeves. On her fair arm, a flame of black and white was burning. The flames were as dark as ink and as pure as holy white. They intertwined and swirled back and forth. When the flames burned out, the black and white flames were forever imprinted on her fair arm…
“Is this the backlash of the prophecy?” Xiaopo looked at Professor Trelawney beside him with some surprise.
Professor Trelawney did not answer, but silently pulled up her sleeves. The black and white flames were still clear, and thin lines extended out and climbed up along Professor Trelawney’s arms.
“This!” Xiao Po was shocked by the scene before his eyes. He had a hunch that the thin line that was climbing up must be the heart!
But what answered him was Sybil’s words again: “Can you bear this curse? The curse of the Dark Lord!”
Complete silence!
The picture dissipated, chaos twisted again, and Little Brontë and Professor Trelawney returned to the Divination classroom.
Chapter 68: As a Member of the Order of the Phoenix (Old Edition)
“If this is my curse, I should be able to find a way!” Xiaopo suppressed the urge to ask further questions and said, “I am very strong now.”
Professor Trelawney smiled and asked indifferently, “Are you admitting that you are the Dark Lord?”
“If I am~” Xiaopo hesitated. After going through so much, Xiaopo was really unsure whether he was the one or not: “At least, it’s a prophecy about me, isn’t it?”
“I am not the only one entangled in this curse.” Professor Trelawney shook her head and looked at the thin black and white lines on her arm. “Besides, which one of the black and white is you?”
“My brother?” Xiaopo raised his head.
Professor Trelawney lowered her sleeves. “Who knows?”
“Is your curse serious?” Xiaopo asked with concern.
“What do you think?” Professor Trelawney laughed so brightly that she barely suppressed her emotions for a long time. “After that day, I dare not mention even a word again! The only time, the Inspectorate used some means, and my body repeated the prophecy uncontrollably. A beginning! Just a beginning! These thin lines appeared on the originally black and white flames, and I felt that my heart would be torn into pieces in the next second! Pain! It hurts more than the Unforgivable Curse! Fortunately, these thin lines crushed all the magic of the Inspectorate, and I can finally shut my mouth…”
“So, what happened next?” Xiaopo asked tentatively.
“Later,” Professor Trelawney drank and looked at Little Broken’s forehead, “some of the others still let it slip and suffered the backlash of the curse. I heard it was quite tragic. Then, the Ministry of Magic began to act. And then, they found you!”
“Why not tell the Ministry of Magic at the beginning. Or other people? Professor Granger, Professor McGonagall? Hogwarts? Order of the Phoenix? Harry Potter? Why choose the pub?” Xiaopo suddenly thought that if he told some important people at the beginning, the result might not be so tortuous.
“It’s one thing to tell a passerby, and another to tell someone who has the power to change everything.” Professor Trelawney continued to look at Little Bro’s forehead, as if thinking about something.
Little Bro nodded and looked at Professor Trelawney: “Is this all the prophecy is about?”
“I really want to tell you that this is it, but it is not. I felt the burning of the flame at that time, so I chose to stop. In fact, this prophecy is not complete. Do you want to hear it?” Professor Trelawney smiled, reached out her hand, pushed aside Little Bro’s hair, and saw the lightning-shaped scar on Little Bro’s forehead.
“Will you be in danger?” Little Po felt a little uncomfortable and turned his head, but ultimately did not stop Professor Trelawney.
“I don’t know either. Maybe he’ll be fine. Maybe he’ll die.” Professor Trelawney put down her hands, fixed his bangs, and looked at him again.
“Then don’t take the risk!” Xiaopo answered firmly.
“Even if the second half of the language is related to your fate?” Trelawney smiled, grabbed a piece of cake, bit it gently, and savored it carefully.
“Even if…” Xiaopo hesitated suddenly: “About our fate? Do you know the whereabouts of the other child?”
“So, you want to talk?” Professor Trelawney continued chewing.
“No!” Xiaopo shook his head decisively.
“See you next time!” Professor Trelawney stood up, straightened her robes, and looked at Little Po appropriately: “Thank you for the cake. Oh, by the way, don’t worry about fate. Don’t worry about another child…”
Xiaopo looked at Professor Trelawney in confusion. But he found that everything around him was getting farther and farther away. Professor Trelawney, who was sitting in front of him, seemed to be thousands of miles away in the blink of an eye.
“The little guy is moving!”
“Madame Pomfrey! Professor! The little bastard is moving!”
The sound came from all around, and the little ghost flew away into the distance. Darkness fell, and there was no light at all.
“You will meet soon.”
Xiaopo suddenly opened his eyes! The magic lamp was so bright that Xiaopo couldn’t open his eyes for a while.
After adjusting for a while, he tentatively opened his eyes again and took the glasses handed to him by Selena. Only then did Xiaopo see the anxious professors and DAs around him…
“Am I dizzy again?”
“Yes!” Madam Pomfrey complained, “Your magic power is seriously overdrawn! Are you trying to kill yourself? The magic power fluctuations were so strong that they were almost undetectable when we rushed back to the school infirmary! If Xiao Ai hadn’t detected the subtle changes in magic power, I would have asked the headmaster to notify your family!”
“Why notify my family?” Xiaopo sat up with the help of CG.
“I’ll collect your body!” Madam Pomfrey roared, giving Little Bro a cold look.
“But I didn’t…” Xiaopo opened his mouth, but suddenly realized that it was not appropriate to say so. He quickly looked around and smiled and changed his words: “It’s enough to notify them!”
Madam Pomfrey glared at Little Bro again. The children laughed but didn’t say anything. Trod stood there awkwardly. It was obvious that Albus hadn’t forgiven him yet.
“So,” Hermione asked from the side, “Is Little Bro okay?”
“It’s okay!” Madam Pomfrey’s tone was still bad. She stuffed a small bottle of transparent potion into Little Broke’s hand and said, “Drink this!”
Xiaopo took it with a smile and drank it all in one gulp. He jumped out of bed anxiously and looked at the clock on the wall. It seemed that not much time had passed.
“Looking at Little Po’s condition, does he need to take any more potions?” Hermione asked without rushing to take the children away.
“If a good meal counts~” Madam Pomfrey said, making the bed.
Professor Shin came closer to Hermione and asked, “Has Madam Pomfrey always been so arrogant?”
But what he got in return was a big eye roll from Madam Pomfrey!
“And he has excellent hearing!” Madam Pomfrey shook off the sheets fiercely.
“What’s going on?” Xiaopo asked CG next to him in a low voice.
“Madam Pomfrey almost thought she couldn’t save you.” CG explained in a low voice, but it was obviously heard by Madam Pomfrey.
Madam Pomfrey turned her head away haughtily, but still rubbed the corners of her eyes with her hands.
Hermione smiled and clapped her hands, “Well, let’s go back to the castle. I’m sure the other professors are waiting for us. I heard the food tonight is good.”
Professor Xin hugged Xiaopo and CG and asked, “What are you guys mumbling about?”
“I heard there’s Chinese food!” Hermione looked over with a smile. Seeing that Professor Xin didn’t seem to be moving, she added, “I heard there’s also wine~”
“What are you still dawdling about?” Professor Xin suddenly let go of Xiaopo and CG, clapped his hands and greeted them. He slapped Albus, who was still angry, and with his other hand pulled Trod, who was hesitant and dragging behind, “Hurry up! If you are not active in eating, there is something wrong with your brain! If you don’t eat at night, you will be doomed sooner or later! Get moving, get moving!”
“What the hell is going on here?”
“idiot……”
“Will that poison affect the brain?”
“Then she must have been poisoned for a long time~”
Amid the children’s comments, the children returned to the castle with Professor Sheen leading the way and Professor Granger following behind.
In the auditorium, the professors had already taken their seats. Because it was still a holiday, they still used the small long table for Christmas. Fortunately, there were enough seats, and the professors and children sat around the long table. The house elves prepared dinner and served a large cup of steaming hot milk at each seat.
“Drink it,” Hermione explained when she saw Albus push the milk away in disgust, “Hot milk can calm your nerves. It’s good for you.”
Albus curled his lips, glared at Trod, and dropped his fork hard on the steak!
Trod poked uncomfortably at the pointed pie in front of him that was struggling to get off the fork, and looked at the plate with a complicated expression.
“Do you know why I gave the discipline to you, Trod?” Selena said silently.
“It shouldn’t have been given to him!” Albus answered first.
“If you regret it…” Trode’s tone was a little depressed.
“What did you say?” Selena didn’t answer immediately and looked at CG.
The professors put down their knives and forks in tacit agreement and watched the DAs handle internal affairs quietly.
“Very annoying!” CG put a piece of ham into his mouth expressionlessly, but then said: “But, it’s good enough!”
“What?” Albus would have almost stood up if Scorpius hadn’t pulled him back.
The professors smiled and resumed their dinner.
Trod looked up in surprise.
“Whether as a friend or as a DA!” CG answered calmly, without even looking at Trod: “But, it’s annoying!”
Professor Xin opened another bottle of ice wine with a loud voice. When he saw the others looking over, he said in a loud voice, “You guys continue. Continue. Hahahaha~”
Selena rolled her eyes at Professor Xin and looked at Trod: “So, if you really want to quit…”
“I don’t want to quit at all! I’m doing this for…” Trod said anxiously, his voice suddenly getting louder.
“Then please keep going. Ignore those brainless idiots!” Selena rolled her eyes at Albus who was still staring at Trod. “If different voices can only come from the outside, then that will be our real trouble.”
“I don’t want to have different voices, but we still haven’t solved the problem, right? Whether it’s Professor Xin’s poison, the person who poisoned him, the person behind the scenes, or Xiaopo’s matter! The matter was just suppressed by Xiaopo’s fainting, but the matter is there and has not been solved at all! Isn’t it?!” Trod gestured excitedly, completely forgetting that he was still holding a knife and fork in his hands!
“You’re really annoying!” CG commented silently, swallowed the food in his mouth, turned his head and looked at Trod: “You said you trust us?”
“Of course!” Trod put his hands on the table.
“Then why don’t you believe Selena?” CG’s expression remained cold.
“I…” Trod was speechless for a moment when asked by CG.
“Serves you right!” Albus said proudly, but was glared at by Lily and Hermione.
Xiaopo smiled foolishly, eating the roast duck which still had no side dishes of sauce or pancake, while looking at everyone.
“What are you laughing at?” Winice asked weakly. Her voice was very low, but in this quiet auditorium, it was still heard by others: “They are arguing.”
Jaina handed Winness a piece of cake and rolled her eyes at the boys: “Ignore them, all the boys have problems with their brains, they always quarrel.”
“What’s there to be afraid of when we quarrel?” Xiaopo replied with a smile: “This is what a family looks like~”
“You’re an idiot!” Albus cursed, “Only a fool would want to be a family with him!”
“Hello, idiot!” Lily mocked her good-for-nothing brother and lowered her head helplessly.
“Stinky girl!”
Albus rolled up his sleeves, Scorpius smiled and handed over two chicken legs!
“For the chicken’s sake!” Albus sat down again and gnawed on the chicken leg angrily.
Professor McGonagall smiled and whispered something to Hermione beside her.
Xiaopo vaguely distinguished the words “when I was young” and “Order of the Phoenix” from the lip movements.
Amidst the noise and chatter, everyone finished the sumptuous dinner.
There were so many bottles in front of Professor Xin that he could not place them any more, and he refused to let the elves clean them up. Only after the entire long table was cleaned up did Professor Xin count the empty bottles with great satisfaction. Xiaopo clearly saw Professor Xin count the same row of bottles three times in a row, but he did not notice…
The professors and children were talking about their own topics. Trod stopped saying anything annoying, but everyone could see his struggle.
Ding ding~
There was a crisp knocking sound, and Professor McGonagall tapped her teacup.
“Is it time to go to bed?” Professor Xin got up drunkenly.
“Please wait a moment, Professor Xin.” Professor McGonagall responded politely and looked at Selena: “I have a question for your DA.”
“Please go ahead, Professor~” Selena straightened up and looked at Headmaster McGonagall.
“I wonder if we can listen to the DA’s subsequent plans?” Professor McGonagall smiled and looked at the professors around her, then added: “Not as a principal or professor, but as a member of the Order of the Phoenix!”
Chapter 69 Equal Recognition! (Old Version)
Everyone except Professor Sheen was obviously stunned and looked at Professor McGonagall and Selena very seriously.
The Mockingjay badge glowed brightly, and all the DAs straightened their bodies unconsciously.
Selena raised her head, smiled appropriately, looked at the DAs, and then looked at Professor McGonagall again: “Kingsley’s Order of the Phoenix?”
“No~” Professor McGonagall shook her head: “Dumbledore’s Order of the Phoenix! The current Order of the Phoenix! The Order of the Phoenix that is willing to stand with the DA!”
“You mean, allies?”
Selena smiled calmly, but Xiaopo’s heart was already filled with turmoil!
That was the Order of the Phoenix, the Order that fought against Voldemort twice, the Order that Dumbledore led to break out of the siege! What is an alliance? It is an equal existence! Has the DA grown to this point without anyone noticing?
Xiaopo couldn’t help but look at the other children. It seemed that he was not the only one who was so excited! Perhaps the only ones who could remain calm were Selena, who had no idea what she was thinking about every day, and CG, who never got excited!
Professor McGonagall was obviously stunned for a moment, but then she stood up, smiled and stretched out her hand!
Selena stood up calmly, but Xiaopo could clearly see that Selena was also excited. The hand behind her back was shaking! Trembling with excitement!
“Glad we are allies~”
The moment the two hands were clasped together, Selena finally couldn’t pretend anymore. The corners of her mouth slowly turned up from calm to a full smile, such a brilliant smile.
But, is there something missing?
Hermione was the first to applaud, and then the children understood! Applause, there should be applause here!
In an instant, there was thunderous applause at the small long table!
Professor Xin suddenly woke up, looked around, clapped perfunctorily, and lay down again. But he woke up immediately, stood up, and staggered to the door: “No, you guys chat, I have to go back to sleep.”
“It’s really unsettling. I’ll go and keep an eye on her while you two chat.” Madam Pomfrey muttered, and stood up and followed.
“Hagrid,” Hermione smiled, standing up and pulling up Hagrid who was still clapping: “Come on, I’ll take you to the kitchen and bring some delicious food for Grawp, how about that?”
“Oh? That’s great!” Hagrid stood up in surprise and quickly followed Hermione.
Other professors also stood up one after another, muttering different reasons, smiling, and walking out gracefully.
Everyone seemed to be in sync and seemed to understand that the topic after the applause should probably not be heard by so many people.
Selena withdrew her hand, suppressed her excitement, looked at the professors who were about to leave the auditorium, and shook her head helplessly.
“Everyone!” Selena did not use magic to amplify her voice, but this voice was enough to call out to all the professors, even Professor Xin who was still staggering.
“What are you thinking about?” Selena was still smiling, but her tone had become serious, with a hint of offended anger in her seriousness: “Are you thinking that I will reveal the DA’s plan later? Thinking that no matter what the plan is, the fewer people know the better? But I want to ask, what makes you think so? Just because of the approval of your Order of the Phoenix? We must tell you the plan! Please put away your arrogance! Arrogance that comes from good intentions is even more hurtful! DA is DA, and we will never become a vassal of any organization!”
“We didn’t mean that.” Hagrid shook his head and turned to look at Hermione: “Did we?”
Hermione smiled and stood up straight, without answering, looking at Selena solemnly.
The same is true for other professors.
“Are you sure? I’m from the East~” Professor Xin twisted his body and asked loudly. It seemed that because his voice was too loud, he couldn’t help but burp loudly.
Selena glared at him with disdain, then replied loudly: “Then give me back the badge on your collar!”
Professor Xin did not move. His eyes, which were blocked by his messy hair, stared at Selena. The mockingbird on his collar shone brighter and brighter. Then, the corners of Professor Xin’s mouth curled up and he laughed wantonly! It was a silly smile, a silly smile of Xiaopo!
CG stood up and waved his hands!
The long table in front of him disappeared and reappeared in the corner the next second. All the magic lights in the auditorium lit up, and the torches that were usually only used for ceremonies also lit up high in an instant!
In the bright daylight, Selena stood up straight and turned her head to look behind her: “DA! Assemble!”
The children stood up in an instant, not in a very orderly but definitely orderly manner, and stood beside Selena.
Hermione smiled, patted Hagrid’s shoulder, and walked forward silently!
Professor Xin lifted up her hair and looked at the children in front of her with satisfaction. There was no trace of drunkenness on her body anymore!
When the two professors joined the team, the anger on Selena’s face finally disappeared.
Xiaopo smiled foolishly and saw Selena’s face for a moment. It was just that Selena hid it too well.
When Selena turned around and looked at Professor McGonagall again, I had an illusion. Maybe it was because the light around her was too bright, but it seemed that Selena had grown taller and was as tall as Professor McGonagall.
“Professor,” Selena looked at Professor McGonagall and the professors who had returned to Professor McGonagall’s back, and spoke in a serious but calm manner, “This is our DA! Although we still have a lot to learn from you, what we need is equality.”
“Equality is never achieved by words!” Professor McGonagall looked at Selena majestically.
“I think we have proven our strength!” Selena raised her head without any retreat.
“Very good.” Professor McGonagall smiled and nodded with satisfaction, her eyes full of relief.
Professor McGonagall drew out her wand and waved it gracefully in the air.
A standard meeting table appeared in the middle of the room, with nameplates placed on both sides of the table. On one side, it said Order of the Phoenix, and on the other side, it said DA!
Professor McGonagall put away her wand and raised her hand: “Please~”
Selena smiled and raised her hand like Professor McGonagall.
Then, the two walked side by side towards the long table…
When everyone was seated, perhaps by coincidence, Hermione’s seat was right at the edge of the long table, next to the professors on one side and the children on the other.
“Now,” Professor McGonagall spoke again, “Now, can you tell me? We actually have the same doubts as Mr. Trod.”
“I’ve given you face and laid enough groundwork. I’ve made all the concessions I can. Now that it’s come to this, I have to say it even if I don’t want to, right?” Selena smiled and looked at Hermione, “But! If I really say it, will you be disappointed?”
“If a ruler is not discreet, he will lose his subjects. If a subject is not discreet, he will lose his body. If a few things are not discreet, harm will be done.” Hermione smiled, leaned back in her chair, and muttered with a smile: “The last test, DA passed!”
“Boring…” Professor Xin lay down on the table again without knowing when, and stood up while muttering: “Let’s go, let’s not talk anymore! Such a big fuss. It’s really… ah… annoying, you tactical people have dirty hearts… ah…”
“Shut up!” Selena scolded, rolled her eyes at Professor Xin, and slammed the table. “You said it’s a secret, so it’s a secret. You said you don’t want to tell us, so we don’t tell us. You said it’s a test, so it’s a test. You said it’s a test, so we pass it? Why?!”
Hermione was visibly stunned, then shut her mouth gracefully.
“So what happened today?” Professor Xin glanced at Hermione and asked with a silly smile.
“It’s a deal!”
Chapter 70 I have decided on this matter today! (Old version)
“It’s a deal!” Selena’s words were loud and clear!
What a pity!
Xiaopo smiled foolishly~
Albus grinned foolishly: “It’s over, Selena is stupid!”
Jaina smiled silly, “Yeah, a little rebellious. But that’s normal.”
Winice smiled foolishly: “So handsome!”
Lily smiled foolishly: “Should use ‘Sa’…”
The children were commenting, and not a single word was serious. But everyone had an easygoing silly smile on their face, the same silly smile as Xiaopo.
“What are you laughing at?” Trod couldn’t help it anymore, and stood up, slapping the table. “Is it funny? Is it cool? Can’t you be serious about such a big thing? Is this the time to force a rebuttal? Is this the time to be unique? Do you understand how important and serious these things are? What’s wrong with you?”
“We!” CG, the only one who didn’t smile smirked, said, “Trust Selena!”
“I…” Trod looked blankly at the children who were looking at him, sat down on the stool, and hesitated whether to take off the badge on his chest: “Unconditional belief, I can’t do it.”
Xiaopo patted Trod’s shoulder and said, “That’s why I asked you to be disciplined.”
“……” Trod raised his head and opened his mouth, but in the end he didn’t say anything.
“Do you remember the first lesson I taught you?” Professor Xin turned his head and looked at Trod.
“On the train? Resistance? Confidence? Or…” Trod was a little confused.
“What are you afraid of!” Albus shouted loudly, looking down on Trod even more.
“I’m afraid? What am I afraid of? I…” Trod argued, and then reacted, what are you afraid of? This was Professor Xin’s first lesson on the train.
Looking up, Trod looked at Professor Xin with some confusion.
“Then learn slowly. There’s nothing to be afraid of! No matter what happens!” Professor Xin smiled rarely and slapped Trod. However, this slap of encouragement seemed a little heavy…
Trod staggered and stood still with a grin on his face.
But then, Professor Xin became nonsensical again: “Come on, come on, clap your hands in encouragement!”
As expected of you! Professor Xin! Trod’s face instantly turned black!
“Let me do it!” Albus rolled up his sleeves and was about to rush forward!
Selena scolded, suppressing the urge to take out the parchment and cross out Professor Xin, and glared at that person fiercely.
Professor McGonagall smiled and looked at the children who had quieted down again: “So, are you sure you want to tell me?”
“What are you afraid of!” Selena blurted out subconsciously, straightened her body with some discomfort, glared at Professor Xin again, tried to be serious, and then spoke again: “I will not only say it here, but also say it on The Counterpoint. I want everyone to know it!”
“Are you crazy?” Trod couldn’t help but speak again.
“There’s a word you should have heard of!” Selena looked at Trod.
“Open conspiracy!” Hermione seemed to have thought of something and looked at Selena with a smile.
“That’s right!” Selena nodded and looked at the others: “No matter what Xiaopo is like, there will always be people who don’t like him, and there will always be people who fear him! But don’t forget, this is not the time more than a decade ago when everyone was terrified of him and the Ministry of Magic could cover the sky with one hand! What we should think about now is not how many people will not be afraid of Xiaopo if we keep this matter secret. Instead, we should think about how many people will still be willing to believe in Xiaopo even if the information about this matter is leaked!”
“I believe it! Our whole family believes it!” Albus raised his hand high!
“You can’t represent the whole family!” Lily rolled her eyes at Albus: “But whether it’s mom, dad, or James, our family is willing to believe in the little one.”
“Most Gryffindors are willing!” Jaina raised her hand to indicate.
“Me too. Although there are still some people in our college who are afraid of Xiaopo, those who have received help from Xiaopo have already believed in him. Whether they are inside or outside the school.” Winice raised her hand weakly.
“I don’t think this is what Selena meant.” Hermione interrupted the students who were about to speak with a smile.
“That’s right!” Selena pulled out a copy of the Daily Prophet from her pocket. On it was a striking headline about Hogwarts accepting refugees. “Think about it, how many people were affected by the last incident with Xiaopo’s leadership?!”
“That should be…” Trod seemed to begin to understand.
“A lot!” Albus slapped the table and shouted excitedly.
“Albus!” Selena suddenly asked, “What was your first reaction when you saw the destructive magic of Little Brontë?”
“Cool!” Albus answered without thinking, but then he had to add: “If the magic wasn’t thrown at me…”
“That’s right, this is the voice of those who want to rebel! The leader of the resistance organization must have such ability!” Selena replied.
“But, those people have dispersed, the unrest has subsided, and those people have found jobs, right?” Winness asked weakly, raising her hand.
“But the spark of resistance has not been extinguished, and the spirit of resistance will live forever~” Jaina rubbed Winness’s head.
“Moreover,” Trod looked at the newspaper meaningfully, “the contradiction has only been alleviated, but not fundamentally resolved.”
Selena answered affirmatively: “As long as the Ministry of Magic exists, as long as the current system exists, all this will never change. Whether it is for Xiaopo or for others!”
“Student Selena, you are playing with fire…” Hermione rubbed her temple subconsciously.
“Will the fire not come if we compromise? Hogwarts chose to support the Ministry of Magic for the sake of stability last year, but what did we get in return?” Selena looked at Hermione: “We never started this fire!”
“But…” Hermione was about to speak but was interrupted by Professor McGonagall.
“The Order of the Phoenix is ​​willing to support you, but you have to know, Selena, that it is very difficult to change everything!” Professor McGonagall looked at Selena seriously: “We are not afraid of chaos, but we don’t want the people to live in misery.”
“So,” Selena took over from Professor McGonagall, “we’ve already started working on it.”
Everyone was shocked! Including Hermione, McGonagall, CG, everyone!
“When will we…” Xiaopo tried to speak.
“When the express train encountered Dementors! When the little ragdoll tore off the Dark Arts outside the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom! When the Slug Club was attacked at a gathering! When those homeless people needed someone to lend a hand!” Selena said in a resounding voice: “Everyone we help is a seed that is constantly radiating influence outward. Never underestimate anyone.”
“I admit that those people in the Slug Club have strong backgrounds, but can they really influence their own families?” Trod raised his hand and asked back, but he himself did not realize that by asking this, he was actually silently choosing to believe Selena.
“Don’t underestimate anyone!” Selena looked at Trod and repeated, “I’m definitely not just referring to the kids in the Slug Club, but also the homeless people, the so-called refugees in the newspapers! They shouldn’t be refugees, they are just victims of this system!”
“What are you going to do?” CG raised his head and looked at Selena.
Selena drummed her fingers on the table, her eyes scanning everyone one by one, finally landing on Hermione.
“Change the world and reignite the war!”
Chapter 71 Are you planning a rebellion? (Old version)
Silence! A long silence! A long silence at the long table!
Professor Xin suddenly lifted his hair and laughed, laughing so hard that he was out of breath…
“A new day, hahahaha, rekindle, rekindle the war, hahahahaha!”
Just when everyone was looking at Professor Xin strangely, Professor Xin suddenly turned cold and said, “Are you guys going to rebel?!”
The moment this taboo word appeared, a chill swept across the long table. Both the children and the professors could not help but shudder!
This translation seems too straightforward, so straightforward that it makes people dread!
A group of children and professors, more than a dozen people, sat at a long table, discussing rebellion!
For a moment, no one answered, and everyone looked at Selena!
Selena was also stunned by Professor Xin’s disturbance. Just as she was trying to calm down, CG next to her answered first: “So what?”
Professor Xin slapped the table excitedly and said, “I knew it was right to play with you guys! Do you want our help? I can talk to them and give us money and people!”
“Shut up!” Selena scolded angrily, “As a professor, can you be more serious?”
“I’m serious!”
Professor Xin immediately took out his tablet and operated it quickly, then…
Familiar voice, familiar military uniform.
While the other children were still confused, Selena and Xiaopo had already recognized it!
They have seen this man before! They saw him when Professor Xin was poisoned and confronted Kingsley!
The one whose opinions could reach the ears of the emperor, the one who could easily suppress Kingsley!
“Me!” Professor Xin said casually, “We want to rebel here, please give us some help.”
The man in military uniform was stunned at first, then smiled: “What do you need?”
“want……”
With a snap!
Professor Xin was about to speak when Selena slammed the tablet on the table!
There was a crackling sound, sparks followed by arcs of fire, and a wisp of white smoke rose from the tablet!
The tablet was broken after a big fight? Was it broken by a slap from Selena?
No, no, is this the time to be thinking about these things?
How come they discussed rebellion during a meeting? They just rebelled, but they also called another country for support? And the other party just agreed to it?
What kind of development is this? Is the span so large?
Professor Xin wouldn’t ask Selena to pay for it, would he? If he didn’t ask Selena to pay for it, how would he settle the bill for the tablet?
Shit! Is now the time to be thinking about this?
Xiaopo shook his head hard, trying to get rid of all these messy thoughts, only to find that he was not the only one who did the same.
“Fuck!” Professor Xin cursed, “You have to pay for my tablet!”
As expected, Professor Xin is worthy of his name. Selena was the one who paid the price!
Is now the time to discuss compensation?
“Shut up!” Selena glared back at Professor Xin.
Professor Xin smacked his lips, folded his hands across his chest, and then, he really sat back!
Xiaopo was devastated at that time! But this is the fact!
Hermione smiled, met Selena’s gaze again, and shook her head helplessly: “I understand, I will participate in the next ministerial election!”
Shit! What did you understand? Can you tell a good story? You understand, but we don’t!
“You…” Professor Xin spoke again.
Professor Xin, you are great! Thumbs up for you. Let me ask you something. What are you talking about? Xiaopo thought anxiously.
“You guys have colluded, right?!”
Xiaopo roared in his heart.
But even Professor Xin’s irrelevant question was ignored by the two.
“But you have to be mentally prepared.” Hermione rubbed her temples, as if something finally happened that made her feel pressured: “My approval rating won’t be too high.”
“It’s not low, it’s very low!”
Selena refused to be tactful, but when she looked at the others with a look that showed she had everything under control, Xiaopo knew that even if it wasn’t a conspiracy, Selena must have planned it in advance!
“But that was also ten years ago!” Selena slammed her hand on the table, her heart burning with anger and her eyes shining with light!
“Ten years!” Selena continued, looking at the people around her: “It’s enough for a dynasty to go from prosperity to decline. Ten years! It’s enough to change the world and be reborn from the ashes!”
“Student Selena,” Hermione smiled and shook her head, “Now is not the time to shout slogans.”
“This is definitely not just a slogan!” Selena looked at Hermione firmly: “I know that many people outside still have the impression of you that they had ten years ago! But, I just said it! You have done what you should do in the past ten years. Now, it’s time for the truth to see the light of day!”
Xiaopo suddenly understood!
Selena is planning! She has been planning since the beginning!
We have been planning this since the resumption of publication of The Counterargument!
And the breaking point is the small break!
Starting from a small business, piece of news, revelations time and time again, it took a whole year last year to reverse the reputation!
And in the past six months, taking advantage of the last turmoil, The Dissenters were almost able to compete with the Daily Prophet!
Selena, relying on her own strength, actually achieved such a level!
Borrow the time! Borrow the momentum! Borrow the great fortune!
I know what happened! I heard Hermione tell me about it! I saw it in the Pensieve!
So Xiaopo knew even more clearly what would happen when the truth of the matter was reported by the now popular The Opponent, and when more and more people understood that Hermione had endured humiliation and endured heavy burdens for ten years!
Kingsley and the Ministry of Magic, are they going crazy?
To the people, it doesn’t matter what Kingsley and the Ministry of Magic do!
They have someone who is willing to ruin their family and help them in their future!
If this kind of person doesn’t become the minister, who will be the minister?
But why did Selena insist on letting Hermione be the minister?
It’s very simple, because no matter what Xiaopo is like, there will always be people who don’t like him, and there will always be people who fear him! But what did Xiaopo do wrong? Nothing! What did others do wrong? No!
It’s the system that’s wrong! It’s the whole rule that’s wrong!
Then change the system! Then change the rules!
Heaven and earth are unkind and treat all things as straw dogs!
Very good! Then we will change the world! Then we will reshape the world!
And the first step in all of this is to replace the Minister of Magic with a Minister who is truly willing to serve others!
Hermione Granger!
Is there anyone more suitable than her?
Everything makes sense!
Future generations will judge whether Xiaopo is good or evil!
It doesn’t matter whether people can tell the difference or not! Because as long as Hermione is still here, as long as the DA is still here! Xiaopo will never lose control! There will always be someone standing in front of them!
This is an open conspiracy!
Overt conspiracy! Never afraid of leaking the news! Always put it in front of everyone! Always break it if you don’t accept it!
Xiaopo couldn’t help but take a deep breath and looked at Selena. It seemed that he… No! It wasn’t just Xiaopo! Everyone underestimated Selena, underestimated this Scamander child!
Hermione tapped her fingers on the table and looked at Selena, her mind racing through all the causes and consequences.
No one spoke anymore, everyone was waiting for Hermione’s answer.
Finally, Hermione’s fingers stopped. There was no need to speak, her smile said it all!
The deal is done!
A sigh of relief was heard at the same time, and several people looked at each other, and then laughter rang out~
“What can we do?” Professor McGonagall asked with a smile.
Selena also had a bright smile on her face, but when she looked at Professor McGonagall, her expression had turned serious: “Protect the school, protect yourself!”
The atmosphere froze for a moment!
Invisible pressure loomed over us!
The fewer words, the bigger the matter!
That’s right, protect the school, protect yourself! These ten words mean that Hogwarts, the Order of the Phoenix, and the DA must be on guard against the Ministry’s counterattack! Beware of Kingsley’s desperate attempt!
When pushed into a desperate situation, no one knows what Kingsley will do!
Professor McGonagall and Hermione looked at each other, as if they had already made up their minds.
“Don’t worry, we will make all preparations!” Professor McGonagall answered solemnly and made her promise.
“Of course I won’t do nothing, don’t worry. Now that the storm has started, it’s time to show some cards!” Hermione smiled and looked at Selena.
“One last thing!” Selena spoke again, looking at Professor Xin.
“My poison is not important!” Professor Xin seemed to know everyone’s struggles and leaned back in his chair calmly: “Since there are more important things to do now, these trivial matters are…”
Professor Xin slowly stopped talking halfway.
The children’s extremely serious eyes seemed to tell her that this was by no means a trivial matter!
Especially Trod!
“This is important!”
Chapter 72 Mysterious Emblem (Old Version)
“This is important!” Selena said.
“But there’s no other way, right?” Professor Xin stopped joking and looked at the broken tablet in a daze.
“None of our original ideas worked.” Trod was a little dejected.
Albus hummed in dissatisfaction.
“Mani? Mani?” Professor Xin knocked on the table, regaining his fearless look, and put his big hand on Trod’s head: “Cheer up! At least we killed the refined beast, right? At least Hogwarts is safe now, right? Congratulations! Come on, Selena, give everyone a smile!”
“Get lost!” Selena couldn’t help herself and finally burst out cursing!
Xiaopo understands Selena very well. Anyone would be unable to hold back at this moment!
“It’s not resolved after all, is it?”
CG’s rational and somewhat chilling voice made the atmosphere, which had finally been relaxed, become dull again.
“Are you annoying? Are you annoying?” Professor Xin slammed the table and stood up: “How about we have a fight?”
CG stood up silently, and Xiaopo clearly felt the fluctuation of magic!
“Stop it, everyone!”
A roar sounded! Selena lowered her head, suppressing her anger.
Xiaopo believes that if possible, Selena would not mind beating up Professor Xin and CG!
But Selena can’t do that, she is a leader. A leader needs to have her own responsibilities!
Glaring at Professor Xin, Selena asked, “Are you sure your poison won’t relapse?”
“Who knows?” Professor Xin sat back in his chair with a bored look on his face.
“I’ll think of another way.” Selena then looked at Professor McGonagall and Hermione.
“We’ll keep an eye on it too.” Professor McGonagall nodded.
“Stop it!” Professor Xin fiddled with his hair. “I’ve already said there’s no antidote. Don’t underestimate the poison we have, okay?”
“With Xiaopo’s magic, maybe there will be a way.” CG said calmly.
“Being able to control it is already the limit.” Professor Xin spread his hands on the table, looked up at the magic ceiling, and said indifferently.
CG was silent, and patted Professor Xin on the shoulder: “If you die, I will avenge you!”
“Thank you! Thank you and your whole family!” Professor Xin responded unhappily.
“I can do it, too!” Winice raised her hand weakly!
“I also……”
Professor Xin pressed down Trod’s arm and said, “You all just hope that I live well, okay?! Pah! What a mess! Okay, okay, go, go and avenge me! You are all great! What do you think? You all just hope that I die soon, right…”
Xiao Po smiled foolishly as he watched Professor Xin chattering non-stop…
Watching McGonagall and Hermione stand up one after another with a smile…
Watching Professor Xin drive the kids who showed up back to the dormitory one by one…
Watching the dinner come to an end…
Looking at the particularly cold moon outside the dormitory…
This Christmas holiday is really not peaceful…
I just seem to have forgotten something…
What did I forget?
Nothing happened in the next few days of vacation, and the DAs were finally able to enjoy a few days of vacation like normal students. Albus still didn’t seem to like Trod very much, but the atmosphere gradually improved. After all, the restrictions at Hogwarts were cleared, the Forbidden Forest was stabilized, Professor Xin’s poison was under control, and the refining beast was eliminated. Although there was no evidence of the Ministry of Magic’s manipulation of this matter, it was not perfect, but the matter was finally resolved.
With Hermione’s approval, the DAs borrowed the school’s brooms and played a game of Quidditch on the last half day of the holiday. As for the score…
Is it important?
In Albus’ words, “The CG is a bug! Were you flying on a broom? You were clearly Apparating with a broom! Not Apparating? Can you Apparate while playing Quidditch? Bullshit! You can cheat with your martial arts skills! If you are so good at cheating, why don’t you play for the national team?!”
“Hu Xiaopo! Can you go find the Snitch?! Albus, if you throw the Quaffle over there again, I’ll kill you! Damn, it broke again! You two can go find Madam Hooch and explain it later!”
With Jaina’s roar, everything seemed to be back on track.
The children who went home for the holidays returned to school to continue their courses in the second half of the school year.
Children learn magic in the castle, observe magical creatures in the forbidden forest, grow plants in the greenhouse, and run freely on the playground.
Hogwarts seemed to have returned to that stable era.
But only Hogwarts has returned to a stable era…
Winter has passed and spring has arrived. When the Whomping Willow greets the spring breeze and lazily teases the birds on its branches, outside Hogwarts, there is already chaos.
“Oh my god, Kingsley’s lies lasted for ten whole years!”
“Back then, Hermione wanted to keep the child in Hogwarts…”
“Impossible! How can such violent magic be so peaceful?!”
“That magic isn’t healing, it’s nourishing! Nourishing! Do you understand? St. Mungo’s should learn this method!”
“Do you think that’s magic that anyone can cast? That’s that child! The child in the prophecy!”
“I can’t believe what that child is carrying!”
“Just a dark demon! Carrying, haha!”
“Bullshit! Dark Lord? That’s slander by the Ministry of Magic! Think about what the Ministry of Magic did? And then look at what that kid did! Dark Lord, ha ha! If that’s the case, then I would rather choose the Dark Lord!”
“I don’t know whether it’s the Dark Lord or not, but I know there’s Hogwarts and the DA! They’re all great.”
“What a pity! Why hasn’t the war in the east ended yet? Do you think it’s because of the Dark Lord?”
“It’s not just the east. I heard that Barbara and the Demon Fairy have been fighting for quite a while. When will it end? Now I can only use firewood to burn the fireplace every day.”
“What’s the saying? Either we’re fighting or we’re preparing for war!”
“This life is unbearable and the Ministry of Magic doesn’t want to find a solution.”
“Do you expect Kingsley to help you? Are you drunk?”
“Hogwarts is still better. At least I can eat enough here. Although the professors are strict, they are all very nice.”
“Have you heard that Hermione Granger is going to run for the next Minister of Magic?”
“It’s useless to say so much. Granger has made all the previous questions very clear. But this is not the point! The point is, will you continue to vote for Kingsley?”
Kingsley slammed his hands on the table and tore the Daily Prophet into pieces!
Yes, you read that correctly! It’s the Daily Prophet, not The Naysayer!
After The Quibbler sold out, the Daily Prophet’s counterattack had little effect.
Why?
Everyone knows that, yes, the child is dangerous, but the professors at Hogwarts, those DAs will stand in front of everyone!
This is something that has been confirmed by eyewitnesses!
Overt conspiracy, this is an open conspiracy!
Put everything out in the open and let everyone choose for themselves!
And just today, the Daily Prophet actually began to publicly criticize Kingsley!
“What are you doing?” Kingsley pointed at the silent spokesperson opposite him and said, “Are these people going to rebel?”
“I went to check the situation. They said they attacked the major shareholders behind the scenes and sent a joint letter…”
“Bullshit!” Kingsley shouted angrily, “Do you know who the shareholders of the Daily Prophet are?”
“Yes, but many of their children are studying at Hogwarts…”
“Hermione encouraged these children to participate?” Kingsley’s head began to hurt. He pressed his forehead with his hand and continued, “How could they have such influence? How could those tycoons listen to the opinions of a group of children!”
“Hermione didn’t, and neither did they. Those children just told what they saw and heard… But, this is scary… because… because…”
The man on the other side couldn’t go down anymore, but Kingsley knew what he wanted to say.
Yes, this is scary, because it means that what they said is true!
“Get out!” Kingsley pressed his head, increasing his strength.
There were sounds of doors opening and closing, and finally Kingsley was the only one left in the Minister’s office.
The silent atmosphere seemed particularly depressing. Kingsley rubbed his forehead, as if he had finally made up his mind. He opened the drawer and carefully took out a box inside, an extremely exquisite box.
The box is made of mahogany with gold-rimmed patterns. A badge similar to the Hogwarts badge is engraved on the box. It is a crown guarded by a sphinx and a unicorn. Three crowns!
“It’s time to go meet them!”
Kingsley muttered this as he gently stroked the patterns.
Chapter 73 Closed-door meeting (old version)
It was another early morning, and the weather in L Dun was exceptionally good.
“Look here, everyone. The building in front of you was built in 1703. After continuous modification and expansion, it eventually became this “patchwork palace” with inconsistent colors and various styles…”
Amid the hustle and bustle, groups of tourists come and go.
The tour guide held a small flag and a loudspeaker, and talked incessantly about the history of the building in front of him.
“Mom, is there anyone living in there now?” a little girl in the team asked, pointing at the closed door.
“Yes. Look, there are guards over there.” The little girl’s mother picked up the little girl and pointed to the distance.
“Who lives in there?” the little girl continued to ask.
“The most powerful person in Country Y!”
The little girl’s mother answered, and then a majestic voice sounded beside her, repeating what the woman had just said.
“The most powerful person in Country Y?”
The little girl’s mother was obviously startled. She had no recollection of seeing such a majestic and strong old man standing next to her.
As if to comfort the frightened mother and daughter, the old man conjured up a teddy bear doll and gave it to the little girl.
“Hurry up and thank grandpa~” the little girl’s mother reacted and said to the little girl.
Grandpa? Yes, I am no longer young.
The little girl was obviously a little shy and didn’t speak timidly.
The old man smiled, put on his hat which was no longer fashionable, and strode towards the closed door.
“Hello, the changing of guard ceremony won’t start until 11 o’clock. If we go there now…”
The little girl’s mother kindly reminded her, but there were too many tourists around, and in a moment of distraction, the strange old man had disappeared in front of the gate.
“Mom, Mom! We are going to fall behind!” The little girl waved her hands constantly.
The woman finally reacted, shook her head, kissed her daughter on the face, smiled and quickly caught up with the team.
The old man was still standing in front of the gate, looking at the little girl who had walked away, looking at the bustling crowd around him, looking at the sky, looking at the sun, and closed his eyes.
It’s great. Even if there is a flood, the world of ordinary people is still so simple. They don’t have to care about those protests or the shitty situation. Apart from their own stomachs and work, they don’t seem to have to think about anything else.
Opening his eyes again, the old man walked towards the closed door!
The guards, wearing red uniforms and hats over one meter tall, seemed to have seen nothing.
A layer of ripples spread out, and the old man disappeared on the spot as if he had never existed.
There was a knock on the door. Kingsley, wearing his hat that was no longer fashionable, followed the waiter and stood quietly at the door, waiting for a response from inside.
Only this time, the wait was a little long.
The door was slowly opened, and the waiter stepped aside and bowed.
Kingsley nodded, stepped onto the carpet he had stepped on countless times, looked at the long table where countless decisions were made, and saw the person who shouldn’t be at the table!
“Why are you here?” Kingsley asked without caring about his decency.
“Then where should I be?” Hermione Granger turned around and looked at Kingsley, with a smile on her face, it was unclear how much sincerity and how much sarcasm there was.
Kingsley didn’t answer, but looked at the man on the other side of the long table, wearing a carefully tailored black suit.
That man was just a waiter, but his master owned the entire building, controlled L-town, controlled Country Y, and everything in it, whether it was magical or Muggle, although it was only in name~
“Please sit down, Mr. Minister.” The waiter bowed politely and motioned Kingsley to sit in a seat next to him.
“Why is she here?” Kingsley repeated his question with dissatisfaction in his tone.
“Please sit down first.” The waiter kept smiling and raised his hand to gesture.
Kingsley did not lose his temper. He suppressed his anger and sat on the other side of the long table.
Slippers shouldn’t make any noise when they step on the carpet, but they do.
Under the gorgeous pajamas, the already plump body seemed not to be able to adapt to walking such a long distance.
“Come?” The fat man greeted nonchalantly and sat casually on the sofa beside him, not even sitting at the long table.
“You are late~” the waiter replied politely.
The fat man waved his hand: “Then I’ll leave?”
The waiter smiled and waved his hand. The curtains closed, and green powder floated away. The light changed and formed into human figures, who sat on the other side of the long table.
5 people, 5 human-shaped shadows, turned from virtual to real, and sat opposite Hermione and Kingsley.
Seeing this scene, the fat man finally felt a little embarrassed. He glared at the waiter and said, “You should have reminded me to change my clothes!”
The waiter bowed, did not answer, walked silently to the door, pushed it open, and closed the door from the outside.
From this moment on, no, from the moment the figure appeared, there was no place for him to speak…
“I want to know why she is here?” Kingsley knocked on the table, glanced at Hermione, took out his exquisite box, and waved it in the air: “Didn’t they say that only with this recognition can we be allowed to discuss matters here? What is this? What is this?! What are the rules here? Are they all child’s play?”
“Rules are rules!” said the bald old man sitting in the second seat on the right among the five figures, his eyes and tone full of dissatisfaction: “You didn’t do what you promised!”
“Can I be blamed for these things?” Kingsley knocked on the table.
“Who should be blamed? Me?” The bald old man glared at Kingsley.
“So you found her? She’s really fickle, huh?” Kingsley slapped the box with his palm and pointed at Hermione: “Do you know how many times it’s because of her, because of her interference, that everything has become like this!”
Hermione smiled but did not answer. The long-bearded old man on the far left cleared his throat: “At least he allowed us to avoid the war in the east!”
“Bullshit!” Kingsley slammed the table.
“Watch your attitude!” The old man with a cane in the middle frowned and said unhappily. He seemed to be wearing the same hat as Kingsley.
“It was her independent plan that she proposed.” The fat man spoke casually while leaning on the sofa. He seemed to be trying to cross his legs, but after some effort, he failed and seemed to be a little out of breath.
“What?!” Kingsley slammed the table and stood up: “This is impossible! That plan… No, you have already chosen her?!”
Kingsley looked at the five figures in disbelief, then glared at Hermione.
But when Hermione smiled, took out the exquisite box, and took out the card that belonged to her from it, Kingsley seemed to have all his strength drained away, and sat back in his chair shakily.
Kingsley clearly saw that the number on the card was higher than his own!
“I don’t mind you calling me senior.” Hermione smiled and spoke for the first time.
Kingsley shook his head, taking it all in.
The fat man smiled bitterly on the sofa, stood up, and seemed to want to hand the drink on the coffee table to Kingsley, but after looking at the distance, he chose to sit down.
The second person on the left, who also had a bald head with large age spots on it, shook his head and raised his hand, and the drink in the fat man’s hand flew in front of Kingsley.
Kingsley still kept his head down. No one urged him. Everyone seemed willing to give Kingsley time to think, even though the time of everyone present was extremely precious!
After a while, Kingsley raised his head and held the drink bottle tightly in his big hands.
“I can’t figure it out!” Kingsley’s usual majestic voice was a little old!
The old man on the far right had a square face. He knocked on the table and looked at Hermione: “You go ahead and say it.”
Chapter 74 Sandbox Simulation (Old Version)
“What is there to say?” Hermione smiled, not seeming to want to show off, but to Kingsley, this sounded more unscrupulous than just talking.
The old man with the cane lowered his eyelids, signaling Kingsley not to get angry, and said with some dissatisfaction: “Just say it when I tell you to!”
The crutch was raised and then dropped again!
There was a muffled sound on the gorgeous floor. The solid wood table suddenly undulated like water, and the ground changed.
Impact and compression form mountains, while sedimentation and subsidence form valleys.
Grass and trees first grow, providing shade for all things; mountains and rivers begin to flow, eventually merging into the sea.
Human beings have moved from the wilderness to civilization, and then from civilization to the wilderness~
In just a short moment, the long table in front of me vividly interprets the development of human beings~
Yes, this is a sandbox! Just a sandbox!
No one was shocked by this, after all, it was just magic. But everything that was changing so fast was the beginning of human development! Countless miracles, countless creations, isn’t it worth being amazed?
The bells of Big Ben rang, but they didn’t even reach the end of the Thames. The magnificent Y Museum is full of ancient artifacts that are waiting to be returned! On the huge sand table, only the Great Wall that shocked the world can be clearly seen~
“The sun never sets~” Hermione shook her head helplessly: “The world has changed~”
Kingsley snorted in dissatisfaction: “What on earth do you want to say?”
Hermione did not answer. She raised her hand to push away the mist on the sand table, but the wand was pointing at the battlefield in the east.
“Have you looked here carefully?” Hermione looked at Kingsley.
“I’ve seen it countless times! I even know every movement there!” Kingsley looked at Hermione impatiently.
“That just shows that you are stupid~” The fat man’s voice came from the sofa next to him: “If you really know everything, you should have made the same decision in advance!”
Kingsley’s eyes flashed with anger. Being laughed at by such a mascot was really…
“Is this what Granger once said to you?” Kingsley looked towards the sofa, his sarcastic words carrying a hint of sympathy.
“Of course not~” The fat man sighed and drank his drink helplessly: “After all, I can’t know everything, right…”
“Let’s get back to the topic!” the old man with the cane reminded and looked at Hermione.
Hermione smiled and pointed her wand to the other side: “The Joy and Sorrow Pipeline had an accident. Who did it? You don’t know who did it, do you?”
“Hmph!” Kingsley snorted.
“Speak to the point.” The old man with the cane reminded again.
“That’s the point!” Hermione raised her eyebrows and looked at Kingsley, as if waiting for Kingsley’s answer!
“This only means that they don’t want us to get too close to the big bear? What does this have to do with what we said before about getting away from the war in the east?” Kingsley turned his head to look at Hermione, but did not notice that the old man with the cane had already shook his head helplessly.
“Ah…” Hermione sighed, looked at the images of the five old men across the long table, shook her head, and without saying anything sarcastic, looked at Kingsley again, her tone heavy: “Since you really don’t understand, then please listen carefully to the following words and think carefully!”
“I’m not your student!” Kingsley tapped the table impatiently.
“Kingsley Shacklebolt!” The old man with the cane spoke again, his tone becoming stern: “You should learn to be a student!”
“Thank you~” Hermione ignored Kingsley and didn’t even feel proud at all. Her tone of gratitude was full of disappointment.
The decline of the country is not without reason. It would have been great if Dumbledore could have become the Minister of Magic. Or maybe it was because Dumbledore knew more that he chose to go to Hogwarts.
Hermione’s mind was full of thoughts, but she didn’t show it on her face. She didn’t look at Kingsley again. She sorted out her thoughts and spoke again: “What is the biggest threat to the wizarding world? Is it Hu Xiaopo? Or is it the other child you have been thinking about and searching for in vain? None of them…”
“How does this involve two children again?” Kingsley seemed to have not learned his lesson at all.
“Shut up! Listen quietly!” The old man with the cane slammed the ground hard and glared at Kingsley fiercely.
Hermione ignored him and swiped her wand across the map, pointing to the other side of the long table, a place with tall buildings and dark clouds: “The biggest threat is in the beautiful country!”
“What nonsense are you talking about!” Kingsley slammed the table and stood up, ignoring the warning just now.
This time, it must be right!
This time, you should stop saying bad things about me!
After all, the core of everything represented, controlled, and possessed by the five people opposite is right where the magic wand is pointing now!
This is why, for such an important meeting, such a high-level meeting, only five figures transformed by Floo powder were present. They are not here, they are where the magic wand points!
However, when Kingsley looked across, the five old men closed their eyes at the same time!
Kingsley’s expression changed from surprise to fear, and he put his hands on the table. Because of this neat expression, Kingsley realized that something ominous was going to happen!
“Sit down~”
A hand patted Kingsley on the shoulder. It was Hermione. She stopped mocking her former comrade. Although they had different ideals, they could not work together. But at least, what Kingsley hoped for was to make Country Y better and better.
Kingsley looked at Hermione and sat back in his chair. He felt so mixed up that all his strength seemed to be drained out of his body. At this moment, Kingsley put aside all his arrogance and looked at Hermione: “Are we going to give up on Beauty? But…”
Hermione raised her hand and interrupted Kingsley: “How glorious the Beauty Country was in the past, how great the threat it faces now. Its decline is inevitable. Decline breeds fear. They have always held hegemony and understand better than anyone how badly they will be beaten if they fall behind!”
“So…” Kingsley was not stupid. After repositioning himself and stepping out of everything to take a comprehensive look at the overall situation, he suddenly realized that everything was so simple: “They are scared!”
“Yes!” Hermione nodded, her face full of disgust. “They are afraid! They are so afraid that they are silent! They are so afraid that they are shaking like sieves! So they use all means to hold on! They don’t want to be discovered! At the same time, they use all means to suppress anyone else who may surpass them!”
“Back then they were suppressing us before they fell…” Kingsley shook his head.
“Not the same!” Hermione tapped her wand on the table, and countless news flashed on the sand table: “Back then, it was just suppression. But that year, they gave up the globalization they advocated and the system they had been working hard to maintain. They were scared, really scared, and they couldn’t hold up the banner anymore. They had to prioritize their own national interests, and they were going to tear their faces apart and use any means necessary! And at that moment, it was doomed that we could no longer be tied to them! Otherwise, only eternal damnation awaits us!”
“How can it be hopeless? It’s just a decline…” Kingsley ignored the trembling of his right eyelid and looked in the direction of Hermione’s wand.
The magic wand is pointing to the entire European continent!
The Big Bear logo appeared first, followed by Europe with a blue background and a ring of stars!
“There are only two ways for Big Bear to rise.” Hermione looked at the sand table: “And the United States will never let Big Bear join forces with us! Blocking Europe means that Big Bear will only have one ally left…”
“China…” Looking at the red sign rising slowly on the sand table, Kingsley felt increasingly heavy-hearted.
“It seems you understand.” Hermione smiled bitterly and shook her head: “Think about it, what will happen when an energy country of the size of Big Bear and an industrial country of the size of China come together?”
“Anything is possible, because there is nothing to worry about~” Kingsley’s hands slumped down: “And the United States…”
“We will never sit idly by and will definitely use all means to hunt them down!” Hermione took over the conversation.
“And the whole of Europe is still expanding eastwards unscrupulously…” Just as Kingsley finished speaking, smoke from an explosion rose on the sand table!
Hermione nodded: “War is inevitable!”
“But we do this only for the safety of Europe! We must have a buffer zone!” Kingsley seemed to have found his backbone again and pointed to the place filled with smoke.
“Then what do you want Big Bear to do? Don’t they need safety? Don’t they need a buffer zone?” Hermione asked back, “Did you think about it carefully when you made the decision? Times have changed! Big Bear has an economy that can support him and his willful allies!”
“Beautiful Country!” Kingsley clenched his fists tightly.
“The rest is actually quite simple!” Hermione looked back at the sand table: “Friction, and then there will be war, and the United States cannot afford to lose the war! We can’t afford to lose it either! This is a quagmire, a bottomless quagmire. Once you fall into it, it will be difficult to get out. Unless~”
“We are leaving Europe.” Kingsley’s tone was full of helplessness. He looked at Hermione and then at the five old men: “So it was you who instigated Brexit back then! You knew everything a long time ago?”
Kingsley suppressed the second half of his sentence, which was: Why didn’t you tell me earlier! ?
“It’s useless!” Hermione knew what Kingsley really wanted to ask and shook her head: “Because this is not the most terrible thing!”
What could be more terrifying than this? Kingsley didn’t want to believe it. Even though he felt that the biggest threat was still the child in the prophecy just a dozen minutes ago, now Kingsley believed it, because it seemed that nothing was impossible.
Looking at Hermione, Kingsley said nothing, silently waiting for an answer.
Sure enough, the sand table changed rapidly. Smoke rose from another location!
This time, Kingsley looked at the five old men again. The expressions on their faces were different. The only thing in common was that they all seemed a little older.
The Holy City! That is the Holy City! That is a place that I will never give up even if I have to give up Europe or America!
Everything that seems accidental is actually inevitable!
This sentence suddenly flashed through Kingsley’s mind. Kingsley looked at Hermione uncertainly: “You don’t mean to say that this is caused by the war in the east?”
Hermione just nodded helplessly.
“If,” Hermione glanced at the five old men opposite, “If we could have made Big Bear win the war quickly, maybe things would have been different…”
Chapter 75: The Battle of National Destiny! (Old Version)
“How is that possible!” This time, Kingsley didn’t react.
Hermione glanced at Kingsley and sighed, “Yeah, how is it possible! How can we give up that buffer zone! Whether it’s America or Europe! Because no one thought we would lose! At that time, we thought we could force the big bear to retreat without bloodshed! But no one thought that the big bear couldn’t afford to lose this war either! Because this is…”
“A battle for national destiny!”
A sound came from outside and the door was pushed open suddenly!
Kingsley looked at the man in green military uniform standing at the door in surprise and slammed the table!
“How did you get in? Someone, someone, come here!”
Kingsley shouted angrily, but no one responded, including Hermione, the five old men, and the familiar waiter following behind!
The man in military uniform smiled, walked to the window and pulled open the curtains!
The five old men closed their eyes in disgust, Hermione covered her eyes with her hands, and only Kingsley continued to glare at the newcomer.
“Mr. Minister, how are you?”
The man in military uniform smiled, a smile so bright and so sincere!
Yes! This man knows Kingsley, and Kingsley knows this man!
This is the Chief of Staff, the one who returned the Inspectorate to him, the one who sent a professor to Hogwarts, the one who sent people to protect him, the one who was young and promising but definitely shouldn’t be here! Major General of the Chief of Staff—Long Haoyun!
Kingsley tolerated Hermione’s appearance! Kingsley tolerated that Hermione was ranked higher than him! Kingsley tolerated that important decisions were not reported! Kingsley even tolerated being excluded from the plan!
But what’s happening now?
Such an important meeting! Such a high-profile meeting! Such a high-level meeting!
A senior military officer from another country! How on earth did he manage to get in so brazenly?
Not only did he barge in, but he was also so rude! Not only was he rude, but no one seemed to dare to object!
What is going on? Is there going to be a war? Is the country going to be destroyed?
Bullshit!
To the outside world, Kingsley will never admit defeat!
Kingsley slammed his fist on the table and shouted angrily: “Give me…”
“Please sit down…”
It was a casual remark, but it was enough to interrupt Kingsley. The bearded old man on the far left spoke calmly.
Sit down?!
Kingsley almost spat out a mouthful of blood on everyone’s face! No matter how strong Kingsley’s willpower was, his face was full of disbelief!
But, what can we do?
Even though he felt reluctant and helpless, the decision of the five old men was not something Kingsley could change!
Suppressing his anger, Kingsley sat back in his chair angrily and turned his head to the side.
The waiter closed the door from the outside.
The man in military uniform smiled nonchalantly, nodded to the five old men, and looked at Hermione: “How about I explain what happens next?”
Without waiting for Hermione’s reaction, a laser pen appeared from nowhere and pointed at the sand table: “No one can afford to lose the battle of national destiny! But when the entire wizarding world, and even the world’s attention, is focused on the war with the Big Bear, have you ever thought that there will be a small vacuum around the Holy City!”
“It turns out you are the ones trying to take advantage of the situation!” Kingsley slammed the table and pointed at the man in military uniform.
“Is Mr. Lan still doing his job?” The man in military uniform looked at Kingsley with a smile.
Kingsley snorted coldly!
The man in military uniform looked back at the sand table. “We just promoted the reconciliation between the two factions. Is that wrong? Did we cause the dispute? Did we start the war? Did we do anything else?”
“That’s right!” Hermione came to Kingsley’s rescue, “You didn’t do anything. You just took Little Yi Yi into the alliance. Little Yi Yi supported some forces on his own initiative. The entire Islamic country no longer had internal worries and began to unite against foreign enemies.”
The man in military uniform had a flash of surprise in his eyes, and then he smiled again: “It seems that you have expected this, right?”
“It’s not the first day you’ve supported Y Lang, is it?” Hermione responded tit for tat, and touched the sand table again. The plateaus, peninsulas, and islands next to China all started fighting!
Looking at the two places on the sand table, the man in military uniform finally lost his composure: “What do you mean?”
“Sit down and take a look at my deduction?” Hermione looked at the man in military uniform.
The man in military uniform straightened his uniform and sat upright on the empty chair next to him.
Kingsley then realized that the empty chair was originally reserved for the man in military uniform. Kingsley couldn’t help but look at the five old men who still had their eyes closed, and his mind was filled with thoughts!
Hermione didn’t give Kingsley any time to think, and pointed at the sand table: “No one can afford to lose in the battle of national destiny! Just like you can’t give up these places, the beautiful country…”
The man in military uniform frowned, not used to such a nickname, but he politely restrained himself and did not interrupt Hermione.
“In order to avoid touching some forbidden magic~” Hermione was also a little helpless: “Beauty will not give up the Holy City and Europe! Yes, you are now at a great advantage. Whether it is Beauty, Europe, or us, they can’t support three fronts! But have you ever thought about it, if they really give up Europe? If they really go all out and bet on you? Are you really so sure that you can win?”
For a moment, no one spoke again.
The man in military uniform stopped smiling, and the fat man on the sofa stood up silently and turned to the room inside.
The sound of slippers stepping on the carpet began again, getting farther and farther away.
“Are you willing to give it up?”
The man in military uniform asked when the rustling sound could no longer be heard.
“Does it matter whether we are willing to give up or not?”
Hermione looked at the sand table, and in just a short while, the war around China on the sand table had been extinguished.
“We just want to remain neutral!” said the old man with the cane at this time, while the other four had already opened their eyes.
“Give up the beautiful country?” the military man asked, his eyes scanning the five old men one by one.
“Let’s stop here for today!” The old man with a long beard took one last look at the sand table, and his figure slowly disappeared~
The other four faded away one by one, and the old man with the cane looked at Kingsley helplessly and disappeared.
“Excuse me~” The man in military uniform stood up awkwardly.
“What on earth are you here for?” Kingsley finally didn’t have to suppress his anger anymore and said, “You haven’t won yet! We haven’t lost yet either!”
The man in military uniform stopped halfway out, turned around to look at Hermione, then looked at Kingsley: “Then why invite us over for peace talks?”
“We invited you?!” Kingsley repeated in disbelief. He didn’t know how many times he couldn’t believe it today.
“What else?” The man in military uniform put on his military cap, opened the door and walked outside!
In the empty room, only Hermione and Kingsley were left. The sunlight shone through the window and fell on the sand table that was still moving. The scenery was so magnificent and beautiful.
“What a pity…” Kingsley stood up with emotion and walked towards the door.
“Don’t you want to see the scene you just skipped?”
