Chapter 279 Youthful thoughts

Prefects are students generally appointed by the principal or deans and given special powers and responsibilities. As part of student self-government, prefects can deduct house points from other students, as punishment for breaking rules, and even put students in solitary confinement.

But under normal circumstances, prefects will not exercise this power because it is troublesome. Point deductions do not just happen. A point deduction report needs to be submitted, stating the time, place, person, reason for deduction of points, etc. It can be said that deducting points is a temporary pleasure, but the report will last until death.

Moreover, other colleges also have prefects. If you deduct points from other colleges, will they not deduct them back? You deduct one point, and I deduct one point. Deductions back and forth are not only troublesome, but also hurt feelings.

Therefore, unless there are extremely special circumstances, prefects will not deduct points. This is a conventional code of conduct for prefects.

Ada was not interested in whether she could deduct points from others. What she liked most was that after becoming a prefect, she could have a dedicated special bathroom.

This bathroom located on the sixth floor of the castle is specially prepared for the prefects and Quidditch captains of each college. It is said that there is a bathtub as big as a swimming pool!

In addition, the completion of a long-term task is also something to be happy about. The task target of prefect and student union president, Ada, is half completed. Now that she has become a prefect, will the female student union president be far behind? Although prefects are not a necessary condition for the selection of student union president, those who have served as prefects will have an advantage.

Looking at the badge in her hand, Ada suddenly felt that she should order some antihypertensive medicine by mail and give it to Professor McGonagall, otherwise she would not be able to hold on.

After the task was completed, the system naturally released rewards, but Ada became increasingly unable to see through the system. Well... she never seemed to see through it. The reward for this mission is actually Legilimency, which belongs to the same magic category as Occlumency.

The concept of this kind of magic is very vague, it is magic used to gain insight into people's hearts.

In front of a Legilimency master, there are almost no secrets at all, unless you are a person who is good at Occlumency, or the secrets you stick to are protected by other magics, such as the Red Loyalty Charm.

As far as Ada knew, Dumbledore and Snape were both masters of Legilimency, but they did not use this ability to spy on other people's secrets. Dumbledore prefers to give people the freedom to reveal the truth, rather than using such terrifying magic to peer into others' hearts.

From the initial Occlumency, to later [Unwavering Determination], [Try Lying to Me], [Directly Pointing to the Human Heart], and then to today’s Legilimency. Ada's brain can be said to be fully armed, and her safety factor is much stronger than that of Hogwarts.

Also included in the letter was a ticket to King's Cross station and a new list of belongings. There are not many things that need to be purchased, "Standard Spells Level 5", "Monsters' Book of Monsters", and a new Defense Against the Dark Arts book.

Since the day Lockhart was exposed, Hogwarts recruitment notices have been published in the Daily Prophet, but no warrior has dared to challenge this position. After all, who likes to be a consumable!

After four years of schooling at Hogwarts, two Defense Against the Dark Arts professors entered Azkaban, and two professors died. The attrition rate of this position is not enough to describe the attrition rate of professors every year.

Among the four professors, the one who persisted the longest was Grover Cecil. Even so, he could not persist until the end of the semester.

Two professors who were imprisoned but survived, Foley and Lockhart, only lasted until April. Judging from the current situation, who still has the confidence to hold this position? Dumbledore doesn't provide insurance!

It is estimated that Dumbledore must have pulled out a lot of beard before finding this new professor. Moreover, in addition to the Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, the Headmaster also wants to recruit a new Professor of Care of Magical Creatures.

With only one arm and half a leg left, Professor Kettleburn finally retired.

He once cast a spell on a fire-ash snake so that the fire-ash snake could play the role of a worm in the play "The Fountain of Good Luck", but it set the entire auditorium on fire. This is just one of the more famous things in Professor Kettleburn's magnificent life.

Although the old professor, like Hagrid, had a special liking for dangerous magical creatures, and even established a record of 62 detentions, he was loved by all the teachers and students in the school.

Although Professor Kettleburn only taught Ada for more than a year, she still liked this dedicated old professor.

Ada estimated that the person who would take over the Care of Magical Creatures position would be Graplan. After all, this witch with short gray-white hair had taught for the injured Professor Kettleburn many times.

===Dividing line===

Life in Paris gradually became boring, and Ada began to miss her days at the Burrow and Hogwarts. Now she stays at home all day long, either reading or dazing, or eating and sleeping, just like a homebody.

Although Ada never complained, all this was still seen by Vida, but she had no other choice but to act anxiously.

Not to mention being isolated from the world, Vader's life is almost like living in seclusion. Normally no one would come here to visit her, and she wouldn't attend those drinking parties between purebloods.

This kind of drinking party, which is used to consolidate relationships and enhance friendship, is useless in Vida's opinion. It cannot make friends or partners.

In desperation, Henry was captured by his great-aunt and asked him to take Ada out with him instead of being kept at home all the time. In this way, Ada became Henry's little tail. Wherever Henry went, Ada followed.

Soon, Ada got to know Henry's friends all over, from Ministry of Magic officials to street vendors. Henry's circle of friends could be said to be very broad. Being able to play with the inconsistent Henry shows how different these people are from the traditional and conservative wizards.

In their attitude towards Ada, they neither discriminated against her blood nor flattered her because of her identity. They just regarded Ada as Henry's sister.

Ada also didn't expect that she would have such a day, and she would be equated with Ron again.

Time is like the water of the Seine that never stops. August flies by and Ada is about to return to England.

That evening, after dinner, Ada walked with Vida as usual.

The Champs Elysées is the most beautiful street in the city, and even its name is taken from Greek mythology. Among other things, the street is also known as Queen's Boulevard. The streets are busy with traffic and people, but they do not affect the grandfather and grandson who are walking.

There was a question that had been pressing in Ada's heart for a long time. After thinking about it for many days, she decided to ask it. She asked: "Grandma, your relationship with Grindelwald back then..."

"I have been his believer all my life," Vidal said without any hesitation, "The house we live in was once his stronghold in Paris."

There is nothing to hide, Vader believes that it is his lifelong honor to follow Grindelwald. Likewise, she didn't think Ada would be unable to accept her identity as a witch. These days of getting along have given Vida a deeper understanding of his granddaughter.

Listening to Vida's story, Ada also learned more about her grandmother. I also learned about Grindelwald from the side, how brilliant this stubborn old man was back then.

And how this bad old man wasted Vader Rozier’s youth! Hing~

"Has Grindelwald never responded to you?" Ada asked cautiously, fearing to touch Vader's sadness.

"He is omnipotent. To him, no response is the best response." Vader said calmly, as if he was talking about someone else's business.

Although her tone was calm, Ada could still see the darkness in her grandmother's eyes. Ada asked again: "Have you ever complained?"

"Silly boy, it's just a woman's immature worry, what's there to complain about?" Vida pretended to be relaxed and said, "In the future, you will also meet such a person, and for him, you will be willing to do anything. "

More than half a century has passed. French Rose, who was in her prime at that time, is now an old man full of wrinkles. In Grindelwald's heart, I'm afraid he only has Dumbledore, Dumbledore!

"It's just a woman's young and immature worry. How can it compare to the 'greater interests'." Vida spoke in a very soft voice, which was blown away by the evening breeze of Paris.
