Chapter 15 The Dean Who Disappeared

If you tell Hufflepuff a secret without asking to keep it, the secret will quickly spread throughout Hogwarts, possibly even outside the house.

Rumors always spread very quickly in places where there are many girls. Professor Minerva McGonagall was originally Dumbledore's assistant, and later she taught Fantastic Beasts part-time. After Dumbledore became the principal, she became the principal of Gryffindor Head and Transfiguration teacher, the current Fantastic Beasts class is taught by Sylvanus Kettleburn.

"My brother said that Dumbledore has been trying to let Hagrid take over this position, but the Ministry of Magic has been refusing to agree. They say he is a cruel giant." On the way to the cellar after class, Susan said she knew He didn’t forget to add his own opinion to the gossip, “If you want me to say that this is entirely because the people from the Ministry of Magic were afraid that Dumbledore would control the entire Hogwarts. The creatures of the forest get along better."

"Where is our dean?" Mary asked.

"He? Maybe he forgot when school started." Susan brushed her short hair like a boy. "He and Newt are classmates, and they also like to travel around. Sometimes Professor Graplan will let his daughter take over as a substitute." , she is about our age, and she is easy to talk to."

"What are you doing, Pomona?" Jenny couldn't help asking when she saw her strange behavior.

"Pray." Pomona put her hands together.

"Pray for what?"

"Pray that someone doesn't show up in the potions classroom."

The girls glanced at each other. After class, most of the groups in the hallway were people from the same dormitory. If Pomona didn't go out so early, she should have moved with Mary and the others. In the end, she was left alone and was almost killed. Slytherin and Ravenclaw, who had nothing to complain about, stopped.

Freshmen have a protection period, otherwise she would have been taught a lesson by Ravenclaw's seniors before, and Ravenclaw's kitty would be taught as well if caught by Hufflepuff's senior sister. ask why? Ask the Gryffindor and Slytherin boys why they don't like each other.

It is forbidden for boys to fight in groups, so Quidditch has become another form of battlefield. The fact that a Slytherin girl bullied a Hufflepuff girl made the boys in the entire Hufflepuff Academy angry, but Hufflepuff Puff won't take the risk of point deduction like Gryffindor and fight openly. They will teach Slytherin a showdown on the Quidditch pitch.

It doesn't matter how many points you score, the important thing is to beat a few people into the infirmary. If the dean is there, the boys will not be so impulsive. Unfortunately, Dorian is not here. God knows if he can come back before the violence escalates.

Witches had been hunted in the Middle Ages, and Pomona didn't feel that Muggles were weak people who needed the sympathy of wizards. If you don’t look at magic power, but just look at the means of playing power, wizards are not necessarily the opponents of Muggles. In terms of calculating people, wizards and Muggles are equal in intelligence. Even the cunning Slytherin is not necessarily the opponent of Muggle politicians . Some people believe that in addition to witch hunting in the 14th and 15th centuries, there was a war between wizards and Muggles. As a result, Muggles won, and then began to restrict wizards through the Ministry of Magic. The introduction of magical creatures into the Muggle world must be reported to the Muggle Prime Minister. Newt did not report so many things came out.

"I'm so sorry." Eddie Water blushed, and walked down the Gryffindor Tower surrounded by boys in the same dormitory in embarrassment.

"Don't worry, everyone has acid at times," his roommate reassures him, but Pomona thinks it's a white lie.

Eddie Water will be a laughing stock, he is the talk of Hogwarts until other "funny things" happen, a Muggle seed actually vomited after seeing Animagus, fortunately Eddie was assigned to Hugh Wards Puff, there are still people who are willing to act with him, and he would have been far away from him in other colleges. As for Slytherin, maybe it is too late for him to drop out now.

"I bet those crows will tell the story of Walter to the whole campus." Susan said angrily, and the crows she was talking about were naturally Ravenclaw students.

"Maybe worse, don't forget they wrote History of Magic too." Mary fanned the flames absent-mindedly.

This is the beauty of power, when you want to distort a certain fact, there will always be a group of "smart people" to help.

To be fair, there are Muggle-born students in Ravenclaw. Like Eddie Waters, they saw the transformation of Animagus for the first time, but they didn't throw up, but she is Hufflepuff's girl now, The Ravenclaw girls wouldn't thank her for doing justice for them, so Pomona didn't stop her roommates from slandering her.

"Did you find out? Most of the professors working at Hogwarts are single, at least they don't have the same father and daughter as Professor Graplan. Hogwarts is very big, and there are definitely enough rooms for the professors to settle. My own family, but even Professor Slughorn lives in the school alone, is this a rule since Dumbledore or has it been like this since ancient times?" Jenny changed the subject in a soft voice.

"When a person is lonely for a long time, he will pin his feelings on other things. Those ladies who keep cats are like this. Maybe Dumbledore hopes that teachers can care for the students of the Fourth Academy as they care for their own children." Mary said with a smile.

"Oh, I don't love Ravenclaw's crows like I love my own daughter, are you right, Medusa." Susan immediately answered, there was a tabby cat in her arms, and she looked like she was holding it It's like holding a baby in your arms.

A very simple rule. The knowledge and experience discovered by the predecessors needs to be passed on by the descendants. The school is such a place that connects the past and the future. If there are no students to go to school, it is useless to have teachers alone. Hufflepuff girls feel that having children is absolutely a matter of life and death for wizards, especially in this era where wizards rule Muggles frequently and lunatic dictators who eliminate Muggles, how many Muggles are there in the world, one billion or two billion? The world's wizard population is only in the millions, so why should the minority rule the majority? Be aware that although wands are powerful, Muggle bullets and bombs are equally deadly.

Families are necessarily made up of men and women, and intelligent people often have a hard time trusting others.

Even if a child is born, if there are no wise teachers and people who dare to expand knowledge, knowledge will not be updated, and human beings will stagnate. Ravenclaw represents the elemental air, which floats on the earth and is Purely free, they look at things differently from Hufflepuff. This kind of contradiction cannot be adjusted, so the girls of the two houses are natural opponents.

Classes with Slytherin aren't much better than classes with Ravenclaws, it's a short walk from Gryffindor Tower to the Vault, first Slytherin class and flying over Gryffindor class, their common room is near the Potions classroom, and they even had time to put the broom back in the common room, and when Hufflepuff came to the cellar, the Slytherin freshmen had already sat "elegantly", using What kind of adjective would describe the situation at this moment? It's like a badger broke into a snake's den, either you die or I live!

"Get to your seats," a Slytherin senior yelled at the Hufflepuffs from the podium with a book in hand.

"Where's the professor?" Mary hurriedly found a seat and sat down. Pomona looked around, but she didn't find Severus Snape.

Her prayers didn't make her happy, and she put "Magic Potions and Potions" and a quill on the desk with a blank expression.

"Didn't you see? He is our teacher." Pomona motioned Mary to look at the impatient Slytherin senior. "We are not qualified to be taught by Professor Slughorn himself."

Mary's little face fell, and she was full of anger.

"The school didn't pay him to make him lazy."

"Of course he's not being lazy, I guess he's teaching his favorite student now." Pomona was a little bit disinterested, that professor with the belly was really eccentric.

"Who?" Mary asked.

"You will know soon." After Pomona finished speaking, the classroom quickly fell silent, and a new class began again.
